Introduction to Portfolio Overview

 

We are pleased to present ICON Leasing Fund Twelve, LLC’s (the “Fund”) Portfolio Overview for the quarter ended March 31, 2016. References to “we,” “us,” and “our” are references to the Fund, and references to the “Manager” are references to the manager of the Fund, ICON Capital, LLC.

 

The Fund raised $347,686,947 commencing with its initial offering on May 7, 2007 through the closing of its offering on April 30, 2009. The Fund entered into its liquidation period on May 1, 2014. During the liquidation period, the Fund began the orderly termination of its operations and has began, and will continue, to gradually dispose of its assets and/or allow its investments to mature in the ordinary course of business. If our Manager believes it would benefit our members to reinvest the proceeds received from sold or matured investments in additional investments during the liquidation period, our Manager may do so. Our Manager is not paid acquisition fees or management fees for additional investments initiated during the liquidation period, although management fees continue to be paid for investments that were part of our portfolio prior to the commencement of the liquidation period. During the liquidation period, distributions are generated from the sale of our assets and the receipt of rental, finance and other income from our investments.  In some months, the distribution may be larger, in some months the distribution may be smaller, and in some months there may not be any distribution.

Jurong Aromatics Corporation Pte. Ltd.  
Structure: Loan Collateral: Equipment, plant, and machinery associated with the condensate splitter and aromatics complex located on Jurong Island, Singapore.
Maturity Date: 1/16/2021

(1) Net carrying value of our investment in note receivable is the sum of the remaining principal outstanding and the unamortized initial direct costs, less deferred fees.

(2) Leased equipment at cost is the cost of the equipment and initial direct costs, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization. Net carrying value of our investment in leased equipment at cost is leased equipment at cost less any outstanding indebtedness associated with the investment.

(3) The Vessel was returned to us in accordance with the terms of the original charter whereupon we assumed the operational responsibility of the Vessel. As such, this asset is classified as Vessel on our consolidated balance sheets.

(4) This investment is through a joint venture that we consolidated and presented on our consolidated balance sheets as net investment in finance lease. Net investment in finance lease is the sum of the remaining minimum lease payments receivable, the estimated residual value of the asset and the unamortized initial direct costs, less unearned income. Net carrying value represents our proportionate share of the investment, less any outstanding indebtedness associated with the investment and includes the recognition of an investment by noncontrolling interests for the share of such investment held by the joint venture’s noncontrolling interest holders.

(5) This investment is through a joint venture that we consolidated and presented on our consolidated balance sheets as leased equipment at cost. Leased equipment at cost is the cost of the equipment and initial direct costs, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization. Net carrying value represents our proportionate share of the investment, less any outstanding indebtedness associated with the investment and includes the recognition of an investment by noncontrolling interests for the share of such investment held by the joint venture’s noncontrolling interest holders.

(6) Net carrying value of our investment in joint ventures is calculated as follows: investment at cost plus/less our share of the cumulative net income/loss of the joint venture and less distributions received since the date of our initial investment.

 

 

Discussion

 

Jurong Aromatics Corporation Pte. Ltd.

Jurong Aromatics Corporation Pte. Ltd. (“Jurong”) is a newly constructed $2 billion state-of-the art aromatics plant. We participated in a subordinated equipment loan in April 2011 alongside Standard Chartered Bank and BP Singapore Pte. Ltd., that was part of the $2 billion financing package that included over $500 million in equity from strategic investors. While the plant was completed on time, a combination of industry headwinds, downturn in commodities and the Chinese economic slowdown forced Jurong into receivership, as the company does not have the liquidity to commence operations. As part of the receivership, we are hoping that there will be a consensual restructuring with the senior lenders, shareholders and trade creditors. Given the current distressed situation, we have taken a credit reserve that values the asset at 11% of original cost. Our Investment Manager believes that a restructuring is the best option and, given the cyclical nature of the industry that Jurong participates in, and the fact that this a state-of-the-art plant, there is a chance the investment may recover some or all of its value.

 

Técnicas Marítimas Avanzadas, S.A. de C.V.

On August 27, 2014, we, ICON Equipment and Corporate Infrastructure Fund Fourteen, L.P. and ICON ECI Fund Fifteen, L.P. (collectively, “ICON”) advanced Técnicas Marítimas Avanzadas, S.A. de C.V. (“TMA”) a senior secured facility of $29,000,000 secured by two offshore supply vessels.  On November 24, 2014, such facility agreement was amended to allow for a senior secured first lien and second lien structure and to include an additional two offshore supply vessels as security for the facility. A senior secured first lien tranche of $66,000,000 was funded by an unrelated third party and ICON’s original loan of $29,000,000 was converted to the senior secured second lien tranche. As a condition to the amendment and increased facility size, TMA was required to have all four vessels under contract by March 31, 2015.

Discussion (Continued)

 

On March 31, 2015, TMA defaulted on the facility because only two of the four vessels had commenced employment.  As a result of such default, the senior lender is, among other things, entitled to receive all cash flow from the existing employed vessels to pay interest and reduce its principal balance.  The interest on ICON's tranche is currently being capitalized.  By January 2016, each of the four vessels had commenced employment as originally required under the terms of the facility. ICON is currently working with the senior lender and TMA to amend the facility agreement and expects to start receiving payments in the near future.

 

 

Performance Analysis

 

Capital Invested as of March 31, 2016 $490,644,795
Leverage Ratio 0.53:1*
% of Receivables Collected for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2016 64.33%**

* Leverage ratio is defined as total liabilities divided by total equity.

** Collections as of June 1, 2016. The uncollected receivables relate to our investment with Técnicas Maritimas Avanzadas, S.A. de C.V. and Jurong Aromatics Corporation Pte. Ltd.

 

One of our objectives is to provide cash distributions to our members. In order to assess our ability to meet this objective, unaffiliated broker dealers, third party due diligence providers and other members of the investing community have requested that we report a financial measure that can be reconciled to our financial statements and can be used to assess our ability to support cash distributions from our business operations. We refer to this financial measure as cash available from our business operations, or CABO.

 

CABO is not equivalent to our net operating income or loss as determined under GAAP. Rather, it is a measure that may be a better financial measure for an equipment fund because it measures cash generated by investments, net of management fees and expenses, during a specific period of time. We define CABO as the net change in cash during the period plus distributions to members and investments made during such period, less the debt proceeds used to make such investments, as well as the net proceeds from equity raised through the sale of interests during such period, if any.

 

We believe that CABO may be an appropriate supplemental measure of an equipment fund’s performance because it is based on a measurement of cash during a specific period that excludes cash from non-business operations, such as distributions, investments and equity raised.

 

Presentation of this information is intended to assist unaffiliated broker dealers, third party due diligence providers and other members of the investing community in understanding the Fund’s ability to support its distributions from its business operations. It should be noted, however, that no other equipment funds calculate CABO, and therefore comparisons with other equipment funds are not meaningful. CABO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indication of our performance or as an indication of our liquidity. CABO should be reviewed in conjunction with other measurements as an indication of our performance.

Performance Analysis (Continued)

 

Cash Available from Business Operations, or CABO, is the cash generated by investments during a specific period of time, net of fees and expenses, excluding distributions to members, net equity raised and investments made.

 

Net Change in Cash per GAAP
Cash Flow Statement

 

 

Business Operations

Net cash flow generated by our investments,
net of fees and expenses (CABO)

 

 

Non-Business Operations

Net Equity Raised

Cash expended to make investments

and Distributions to Members

 

 

As indicated above, the total net change in cash is the aggregate of the net cash flows from Business Operations and the net cash flows from Non-Business Operations. By taking the total net change in cash and removing the cash activity related to Non-Business Operations (distributions, investments and equity raised), the amount remaining is the net cash available from Business Operations (net cash flows generated by investments, net of fees and expenses).

 

In summary, CABO is calculated as:

 

Net change in cash during the period per the GAAP cash flow statement

+ distributions to Members during the period

+ investments made during the period

- debt proceeds to be specifically used to make an investment

- net proceeds from the sale of Interests during the period

= CABO

(1)Cash available from business operations includes the collection of principal and interest from our investments in notes receivable and finance leases.

We entered into certain agreements with our Manager and CĪON Securities, LLC, formerly known as ICON Securities, LLC (“CĪON Securities”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of our Manager and our dealer manager for our offering, whereby we pay or paid certain fees and reimbursements to those parties.

Forward Looking Statements

 

Certain statements within this document may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”). These statements are being made pursuant to the PSLRA, with the intention of obtaining the benefits of the “safe harbor” provisions of the PSLRA, and, other than as required by law, we assume no obligation to update or supplement such statements. Forward-looking statements are those that do not relate solely to historical fact. They include, but are not limited to, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance, achievements or events. You can identify these statements by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “continue,” “further,” “plan,” “seek,” “intend,” “predict” or “project” and variations of these words or comparable words or phrases of similar meaning. These forward-looking statements reflect our current beliefs and expectations with respect to future events and are based on assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties and other factors outside our control that may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. We undertake no obligation to update publicly or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Usually this means a filing will occur on or around March 31, May 15, August 14, and November 14 of each year. It contains financial statements and detailed sources and uses of cash plus explanatory notes. You are always entitled to these reports. Please access them by:

·Writing us at: Angie Seenauth c/o ICON Investments, 3 Park Avenue, 36th Floor, New York, NY 10016

 

We do not distribute these reports to you directly in order to keep our expenses down as the cost of mailing this report to all investors is significant. Nevertheless, the reports are immediately available upon your request.
