NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 1999 (Unaudited) The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been pre- pared by the Fund in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Prin- ciples, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Ex- change Commission. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments (consist- ing of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presen- tation have been included 1. EQUIPMENT LEASED Equipment on lease consists of equipment under operating leases. The lessees have agreements with the manufacturer of the equipment to provide maintenance for the leased equipment. The Fund's operating leases are for initial lease terms of 24 to 58 months. Generally, operating leases will not recover all of the undepreciated cost and related expenses of its rental equipment during the initial lease terms and the Fund is prepared to remarket the equipment in future years. Fund policy is to review quarterly the expected economic life of its rental equipment in order to determine the recoverability of its unde- preciated cost. Recent and anticipated technological developments af- fecting the equipment and competitive factors in the marketplace are con- sidered among other things, as part of this review. In accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, the Fund writes down its rental equipment to its estimated net realizable value when the amounts are reasonably estimated and only recognizes gains upon actual sale of its rental equipment. As a result, $48,376 and $84,829 was charged to write-down of equipment to net realizable value for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Any future losses are dependent upon unanticipated technological developments affecting the types of equipment in the portfolio in subsequent years. The Fund also has equipment leased under the direct financing method in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13. This method provides for recognition of income (the excess of the ag- gregate future rentals and unguaranteed residual upon expiration of the lease over the related equipment cost) over the life of the lease using the interest method. Unguaranteed residuals for direct financing leases represent the esti- mated amounts recoverable at lease termination from lease extensions or disposition of the equipment. The Fund reviews these residual values quarterly. If the equipment's fair market value at lease expi- ration is below estimated residual value, an adjustment is made. 6 FIDELITY LEASING INCOME FUND VI, L.P. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) 1. EQUIPMENT LEASED (continued) The net investment in direct financing leases as of March 31, 1999 is as follows: Minimum lease payments to be received $3,692,000 Unguaranteed residuals 322,000 Unearned rental income (512,000) Unearned residual income (86,000) __________ $3,416,000 ========== The future approximate minimum rentals to be received on noncancellable operating and direct financing leases as of March 31, 1999 are as follows: Years Ending December 31 Operating Direct Financing ________________________ _________ ________________ 1999 $ 714,000 $ 749,000 2000 647,000 1,027,000 2001 176,000 748,000 2002 167,000 702,000 2003 117,000 452,000 Thereafter - 14,000 __________ __________ $1,821,000 $3,692,000 ========== ========== 2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The General Partner receives 5% or 2% of rental payments on equip- ment under operating leases and full pay-out leases, respectively, for administrative and management services performed on behalf of the Fund. Full pay-out leases are noncancellable leases for which rental payments during the initial term are at least sufficient to recover the purchase price of the equipment, including acquisition fees. This management fee is paid monthly only if and when the Limited Partners have received distributions for the period from January 1, 1990 through the end of the most recent quarter, equal to a return for such period at a rate of 12% per year on the aggregate amount paid for their units. The General Partner may also receive up to 3% of the proceeds from the sale of the Fund's equipment for services and activities to be performed in connection with the disposition of equipment. The payment of this 7 FIDELITY LEASING INCOME FUND VI, L.P. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) 2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (continued) sales fee is deferred until the Limited Partners have received cash distributions equal to the purchase price of their units plus a 12% cumulative compounded priority return. Based on current estimates, it is not expected that the Fund will be required to pay this sales fee to the General Partner. Additionally, the General Partner and its parent company are reimbursed by the Fund for certain costs of services and materials used by or for the Fund except those items covered by the above-mentioned fees. Fol- lowing is a summary of fees and costs of services and materials charged by the General Partner or its parent company during the three months ended March 31: 1999 1998 ________ ________ Management fee $16,722 $48,624 Reimbursable costs 49,997 55,589 The Fund maintains its checking and investment accounts in Jefferson Bank, a subsidiary of JeffBanks, Inc., in which the Chairman of Resource America, Inc. serves as a director. Amounts due from related parties at March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 represent monies due the Fund from the General Partner and/or other affiliated funds for rentals and sales proceeds collected and not yet remitted to the Fund. Amounts due to related parties at March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 represent monies due to the General Partner and/or its parent company for the fees and costs mentioned above, as well as, rentals and sales proceeds collected by the Fund on behalf of other affiliated funds. 3. YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE Two of the three main software systems utilized to generate informa- tion for the Fund are still in the testing phase. The third software system should be Year 2000 capable by July 1999. The costs incurred to complete the Year 2000 Compliance project are not expected to be material to the net income of the Fund. All suppliers for the Fund continue to complete their Year 2000 Compliance programs. It is not anticipated that the Fund will incur any significant losses should any of its outside suppliers fail to meet their Year 2000 Compliance deadlines. 8 FIDELITY LEASING INCOME FUND VI, L.P. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) 4. CASH DISTRIBUTIONS The General Partner declared and paid three cash distributions of $25,000 each subsequent to March 31, 1999 for the months ended January 31, February 28 and March 31, 1999 to all admitted partners as of January 31, February 28 and March 31, 1999. 9 FIDELITY LEASING INCOME FUND VI, L.P. Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Fidelity Leasing Income Fund VI, L.P. had revenues of $515,686 and $1,056,019 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Rental income from the leasing of equipment accounted for 50% and 92% of total revenues for the first quarter of 1999 and 1998, respectively. The decrease in total revenues in 1999 is primarily attributable to a decrease in rental income. During the three months ended March 31, 1999, rental income decreased by approximately $782,000 because of equipment which came off lease and was re-leased at lower rental rates or sold. This decrease was mitigated by an increase in rental income of approximately $70,000 because of rents earned on equipment purchased since the first quarter of 1998 as well as rents generated from 1998 equipment purchases for which a full three months of rent was earned in the first quarter of 1999 and only a portion of the three months was earned in the first quarter of 1998. The overall decrease in revenues was partially mitigated by the increase in net gain on sale of equipment. The Fund recorded a net gain on sale of equipment of $151,000 for the first quarter of 1999 compared to $43,803 for the first quarter of 1998. Additionally, the Fund invested in direct finan- cing leases throughout 1998 that generated $68,055 and $1,922 of earned income on direct financing leases during the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The increase in this account also reduced the amount of the overall decrease in revenues in 1999. Expenses were $351,927 and $970,191 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Depreciation expense comprised 57% and 75% of total expenses during the first quarter of 1999 and 1998, respectively. The decrease in expenses is primarily related to the decrease in depreciation expense. Depreciation expense decreased during 1999 because of equipment which came off lease or terminated and sold since March 1998. Additionally, the decrease in write-down of equipment to net realizable value in 1999 also accounts for the overall decrease in expenses in this year. Based upon the quarterly review of the recoverability of the undepreciated cost of rental equipment, $48,376 was charged to operations to write down equipment to its estimated net realizable value during the three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to $84,829 for the three months ended March 31, 1998. Any future losses are dependent upon unanticipated technological developments affecting the types of equipment in the portfolio in subsequent years. Furthermore, management fee to related party decreased in 1999 which also contributed to the overall decrease in expenses from 1998. The decrease in management fee to related party was partially caused by the decrease in rental income from operating leases. The Fund also invested in direct financing leases during 1998 which meet the requirements of full pay-out leases for purposes of calculating management fees. The Fund pays a lower management fee of 2% on full pay-out leases. 10 FIDELITY LEASING INCOME FUND VI, L.P. Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued) For the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, the Fund had net income of $163,759 and $85,828, respectively. The earnings per equiva- lent limited partnership unit, after earnings allocated to the General Partner, were $5.49 and $2.87 based on a weighted average number of equivalent limited partnership units outstanding of 29,514 and 29,586 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Fund generated cash from operations of $261,013 and $852,541, for the purpose of determining cash available for distribution during the quarter ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. There were no cash distributions made to partners during the first quarter of 1999 and 1998 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. However, $75,000 of cash distributions were paid during the first quarter of both 1999 and 1998 for the months of October, November and December 1999 and 1998. Subsequent to March 31, 1999 and 1998, 29% and 9% of the cash available from operations was paid to partners for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. For financial statement purposes, the Fund records cash distributions to partners on a cash basis in the period in which they are paid. ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION The Fund continues the process of dissolution during 1999. As pro- vided in the Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, the assets of the Fund shall be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining their fair value. During this time, the Fund will continue to purchase equipment for lease with cash available from operations which is not distributed to partners. The Fund made no purchases of equipment during the three months ended March 31, 1999 and purchased $2,917,056 of equip- ment during the three months ended March 31, 1998. The cash position of the Fund is reviewed daily and cash is invested on a short-term basis. The Fund's cash from operations is expected to continue to be adequate to cover all operating expenses and contingencies during the next twelve month period. 11 Part II: Other Information FIDELITY LEASING INCOME FUND VI, L.P.
