1.   Basis of Presentation

     The condensed consolidated financial statements of ICON Income Fund Eight A
L.P.  (the   "Partnership")  have  been  prepared  pursuant  to  the  rules  and
regulations of the Securities  and Exchange  Commission  (the "SEC") and, in the
opinion  of  management,  include  all  adjustments  (consisting  only of normal
recurring  accruals)  necessary  for a fair  statement of income for each period
shown.  Certain  information  and  footnote  disclosures  normally  included  in
consolidated   financial  statements  prepared  in  accordance  with  accounting
principles  generally  accepted  in the  United  States  of  America  have  been
condensed  or omitted  pursuant  to such SEC rules and  regulations.  Management
believes  that  the  disclosures  made  are  adequate  to make  the  information
presented not misleading. The results for the interim period are not necessarily
indicative  of the  results  for the full  year.  These  condensed  consolidated
financial  statements  should  be  read in  conjunction  with  the  consolidated
financial  statements and notes included in the Partnership's 2003 Annual Report
on Form 10-K.

coal handling  facility with Portland General Electric,  a utility company.  The
purchase  price totaled  $27,421,810  and was funded with cash and  non-recourse
debt.  The  Partnership's  financial  statements  include 100% of the assets and
liabilities  and  100% of the  revenues  and  expenses  of ICON BF.  L.P.  Six's
(0.5025%) and L.P. Seven's (0.5025%) interests in ICON BF have been reflected as
minority  interests  in joint  ventures on the  condensed  consolidated  balance
sheets and minority interest expense on the condensed consolidated statements of
operations.  The outstanding  balance of the  non-recourse  debt secured by this
equipment at June 30, 2004, was $11,255,873.  The  non-recourse  debt associated
with this  equipment was  refinanced on May 6, 2004 at an interest rate of 3.65%
maturing on January 23, 2010. The lender is assigned the rental payments.

     The Partnership is currently in negotiations with Portland General Electric
about PGE possibly  purchasing the coal handling  facility from the Partnership,
either at the end of the current lease term, or at the end of the extension term
in January 2010.

Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

     The four  joint  ventures  described  below are less than 50% owned and are
accounted for following the equity method,  whereby the  Partnership's  original
investment was recorded at cost and is adjusted by its share of earnings, losses
and distributions of the joint venture.

     ICON/AIC Trust
     --------------

     In 1999,  ICON/AIC  Trust  ("AIC  Trust")  was  formed to own and  manage a
portfolio of leases in England.  The  Partnership,  L.P. Six and L.P.  Seven own
43.73%, 25.51% and 30.76% interests in AIC Trust, respectively.

     On December 28, 2001, AIC Trust sold its remaining  leases,  subject to the
related debt, in exchange, for a note receivable of (Pound)2,575,000 ($3,744,822
based upon the  exchange  rate at  December  31,  2001) which was payable in six
installments  through June 2004. As of June 30, 2004,  the remaining  amount due
was (Pound)375,000  ($679,718  converted at the exchange rate at June 30, 2004),
as AIC Trust collected  (Pound)375,000  in the first quarter.  In July 2004, the
final installment on the note was collected.

        Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued

     ICON Aircraft 24846 LLC
     -----------------------

     During 2000, the Partnership and two affiliates, L.P. Seven and ICON Income
Fund  Eight B L.P.  ("Fund  Eight B"),  formed  ICON  Aircraft  24846 LLC ("ICON
Aircraft  24846") for the purpose of acquiring an investment in a Boeing 767-300
ER aircraft on lease at that time to Scandinavian  Airline Systems ("SAS").  The
purchase  price of  $44,515,416  was  funded  with  cash of  $2,241,371  and the
assumption of non-recourse debt in the amount of $42,274,045. The lenders have a
security interest in the aircraft.  The lease with SAS expired in March 2003, at
which time the  outstanding  balance of the  non-recourse  debt  secured by this
asset  was   approximately   $34,500,000.   The   Partnership  has  been  making
contributions toward interest only payments on the outstanding non-recourse debt
during the remarketing of the aircraft by the General Partner.  The Partnership,
L.P.  Seven and Fund Eight B have ownership  interests of 2.0%,  2.0% and 96.0%,
respectively, in ICON Aircraft 24846.

     The General Partner had determined that it was in its best interest to sell
the Boeing  767-300ER  aircraft,  manufacturer's  serial  number  24846,  to BTM
Capital Corp., the lender,  for an amount equal to the outstanding debt balance.
The decision to sell the aircraft was based, in part, on the following factors:

1)   The  aircraft's  current  fair  market  value was between  $24,000,000  and
     $27,000,000, and the balance of the outstanding debt was $34,500,000.

2)   Any new lease for the  aircraft  would have  required  the  Partnership  to
     contribute  an  additional  $850,000  in equity  (at  minimum)  in order to
     reconfigure the aircraft and/or upgrade the engines.

3)   If the  Partnership  were to continue to remarket the aircraft,  the lender
     would have  required  interest only  payments of  $100,000/month  until the
     aircraft was placed with a new lessee.

     The sale of the aircraft took place on July 29, 2004.  ICON Aircraft  24846
realized a loss of $601,788 and recorded an impairment in the second quarter.

for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 is summarized below:

     ICON Cheyenne LLC
     -----------------

     In December  2000, the  Partnership  and three  affiliates,  L.P. Six, L.P.
Seven and Fund Eight B,  formed  ICON  Cheyenne  LLC ("ICON  Cheyenne")  for the
purpose of acquiring a portfolio of leases for an  aggregate  purchase  price of
$29,705,716.  The  purchase  price  consisted  of  cash of  $11,401,151  and the
assumption  of  non-recourse  debt  of  $18,304,565.  The  non-recourse  debt is
structured so as to be amortized  with rentals due under the leases.  The leases
expire on various dates through  September  2006. The  Partnership,  L.P. Seven,
L.P. Six and Fund Eight B have  ownership  interests of 1.0%,  10.31%,  1.0% and
87.69%,  respectively,  in ICON  Cheyenne.  The  outstanding  non-recourse  debt
balance at June 30, 2004, was $727,584.

     ICON Aircraft 46837, LLC
     ------------------------

     During March 2004, the Partnership  and an affiliate,  ICON Income Fund Ten
LLC ("Fund Ten"),  formed ICON Aircraft 46837,  LLC ("ICON Aircraft  46837") for
the purpose of acquiring and managing a McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30F  aircraft on
lease with Federal Express Corporation through March 2007. The purchase price of
the aircraft totaled $21,489,374,  which was funded with cash of $3,566,226, the
assumption  of  other   liabilities  of  $12,500,   and  non-recourse   debt  of
$17,672,027.  The debt has an interest rate of 4% and matures in March 2007. The
lenders  have a security  interest in the  aircraft  and have been  assigned the
rental  payments  under the  lease.  Legal  fees of  $36,050  were also paid and
capitalized  as part of the cost of the  aircraft.  Subsequent  to  closing,  an
additional $202,571 in bank fees and legal expenses were paid and capitalized as
part of the cost of the aircraft.

     The Partnership  and Fund Ten have ownership  interests of 28.6% and 71.4%,
respectively,   in  ICON  Aircraft  46837.   The  outstanding   balance  of  the
non-recourse debt secured by this aircraft was $15,216,101 at June 30, 2004.

     The  Partnership  also paid Fund Ten $10,000 for an option to acquire  from

this option, the Partnership will own a 90% interest in ICON Aircraft 46837. The
exercise price of the option is $2,130,604 and expires on September 30, 2004.

     The Partnership paid a total of $573,770 in acquisition fees to the General
Partner relating to this transaction which includes a fee of $409,672 related to

Item 2. Manager's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations

     Forward-Looking  Information - The following discussion and analysis should
be read in conjunction with the audited financial  statements and notes included
in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K dated December 31, 2003. Certain
statements within this document may constitute forward-looking statements within
the  meaning of the  Private  Securities  Litigation  Reform Act of 1995.  These
statements are identified by words such as "anticipate,"  "believe," "estimate,"
"expects,"  "intend,"  "predict"  or  "project"  and  similar  expressions.  The
Partnership  believes that the  expectations  reflected in such  forward-looking
statements  are  based  on  reasonable  assumptions.  Any  such  forward-looking
statements are subject to risks and uncertainties  and the Partnership's  future
results of operations could differ materially from historical results or current
expectations.  Some of these risks are  discussed in this  report,  and include,
without  limitation,  fluctuations  in oil and gas  prices;  changes  in capital
spending by lessees;  changing customer demands for aircraft; acts of terrorism;
unsettled  political  conditions,  war, civil unrest and  governmental  actions,
especially   in  higher  risk   countries  of   operations;   foreign   currency
fluctuations; and environmental and labor laws. The Partnership's actual results
could  differ  materially  from  those   anticipated  by  such   forward-looking
statements  due to a  number  of  factors,  some  of  which  may be  beyond  the
Partnership's control, including, without limitation:

o changes in our industry, interest rates or the general economy;

o the degree and nature of our competition;

o availability of qualified personnel;

o the financial condition of lessees;

o cash  flows  from  operating  activities  may be less  than the  Partnership's
current level of expenses;

o the financial condition of lessees; and

o lessee defaults.

a.   Overview

     The Partnership is an equipment leasing business formed on February 7, 2000
and began active operations on June 14, 2000. The Partnership  primarily engages
in the business of acquiring equipment subject to leases. After the net offering
proceeds  were  invested,  additional  investments  will be made  with  the cash
generated from the Partnership's  initial investments to the extent that cash is
not needed for Partnership  expenses,  reserves and  distributions to investors.
The investment in additional equipment in this manner is called  "reinvestment."
We are currently operating in our "reinvestment period". After the "reinvestment
period",  the  Partnership  will then sell its assets in the ordinary  course of
business during a time frame called the "liquidation  period".  If we believe it
would  benefit  investors to reinvest the  Partnership's  cash flow in equipment
during  the  liquidation  period,  the  Partnership  may do so,  but we will not
receive any additional fees in connection with any such reinvestments.

o    A 50 % portion of the  residual  value and the right to acquire the balance
     of an offshore drilling rig, the Cecil Provine.  The Partnership  purchased
     the  option  for  $1,997,000  in cash.  The Cecil  Provine is on a bareboat
     charter to Rowan Companies, Inc. through December 2008.

     Substantially all of our recurring  operating cash flows are generated from
the operations of the single-investor leases in the Partnership's  portfolio. On
a monthly basis, we deduct the expenses  related to the recurring  operations of
the portfolio  from such  revenues and assess the amount of the  remaining  cash
flows  that will be  required  to fund  known  re-leasing  costs  and  equipment
management costs. Any residual operating cash flows are considered available for
distribution  to the  investors  and are paid monthly (up until the  liquidation
period).

Industry Factors

     Our results continue to be impacted by a number of factors  influencing the
equipment leasing industry.

     Further Deterioration of the Air Travel Industry.

     The aircraft  leasing industry is currently  experiencing a recession,  and
this has resulted in depressed sales prices for assets such as the Partnership's
aircraft on lease to America West and the aircraft  rotables which are currently
being  remarketed.  A further weakening of the industry could cause the proceeds
realized from the sale of these assets to be even less than  suggested by recent
appraisals.

     Inability to Remarket Assets.

     If current  equipment  lessees choose not to renew their leases or purchase
the  equipment  at lease  expiry,  the  Partnership  will need to  remarket  the
equipment,  which could be difficult. There is no assurance that the Partnership
will be able to locate a willing buyer or lessee, or if one is located, that the
buyer or lessee  will pay a price for the asset at least  equal to the  carrying
value.

b.   Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2004 and 2003

Revenues

     Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2004 (the "2004 Quarter") were
$910,080,  representing  a decrease  of  $1,612,897.  This  decrease in revenues
resulted primarily from a decrease in rental income of $1,214,463, a decrease in
finance income of $156,709,  a decrease in gain from  investment in unguaranteed
residuals of $180,899 and an increase in loss from investment in  unconsolidated
joint venture of $62,900.

     Rental income  decreased  primarily from the termination of the leases with
Boeing  Connexion  and Sky Airlines as the equipment was returned to the lenders
of the  non-recourse  debt associated with the equipment  subsequent to June 30,
2003,  (the "2003  Quarter").  Finance  income  reduced  due to the  maturing of
leases.  The  Partnership's  loss from its  investment in  unconsolidated  joint
ventures was due  primarily to losses for the quarter from ICON  Aircraft  24846
LLC,  ("ICON  Aircraft  24846") of $31,133  and ICON  Aircraft  46837 LLC ("ICON
Aircraft 46837") of $46,602, respectively.

                                  June 30, 2004

Expenses

     Expenses  for the 2004  Quarter were  $902,888  representing  a decrease of
$8,857,107 from the 2003 Quarter.  This decrease in expenses resulted  primarily
from a decrease in provision for loss contingency of $7,086,338,  a decreases in
interest expense of $651,918,  a decrease in depreciation expense of $916,033, a
decrease  in  management  fees  -  General  Partner  $152,282,   a  decrease  in
administrative  expense  reimbursement  - General  Partner of $43,031.  Interest
expense  decreased  primarily from the  relinquishment  of the non-recourse debt
associated with the Boeing Connexion and Sky Airlines  transactions in the third
quarter 2003.  Depreciation  expense also reduced primarily from the termination
of leases with Boeing  Connexion  and Sky Airlines.  General and  administrative
expense and management  fees - General  Partner  reduced due to the reduction in
the level of activities of the Partnership's operation.

     Net Income/Loss of the Partnership

     As a result  of the  foregoing  factors,  net  income  (loss)  for the 2004
Quarter and 2003  Quarter  was $7,192 and  $(7,237,018),  respectively.  The net
income (loss) per weighted average limited partnership unit was $.01 and $(9.64)
for the 2004 Quarter and 2003 Quarter, respectively.

c.   Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2004 and 2003

     Revenues

     Revenues  for the six months ended June 30, 2004 (the "2004  Period")  were
$1,928,436, representing a decrease of $3,295,664 from the six months ended June
30, 2003 (the "2003 Period"). This decrease in revenue resulted primarily from a
decrease in rental income of $2,428,926, decrease in finance income of $246,470,
decrease in gain from investment in unguaranteed residuals of $143,834, decrease
in  gain  on sale  of  equipment  of  $395,041,  and an  increase  in loss  from
investment in unconsolidated joint venture of $94,202.

     Rental  income  decreased  primarily  form the  termination  of leases with
Boeing  Connexion  and  Sky  Airlines  in the  third  quarter  2003,  due to the
equipment  being  turned  over to the lender of the  non-recourse  debt that was
associated with the equipment.  The Partnership did not realize a gain from sale
of equipment in comparison to the 2003 Quarter,  as the booked residual value of
the  equipment  sold in 2004 was much  greater  than that sold in 2003.  Finance
income reduced due to the maturing of leases. The Partnership experienced a loss
from its  investment  in  unconsolidated  joint  ventures  due  primarily to its
investment in ICON Aircraft  24846 and ICON Aircraft 46837 which both returned a
net loss of $50,311 and $46,602, respectively.

     Expenses

     Expenses  for the 2004 Period were  $2,307,726  representing  a decrease of
$10,683,968  compared to the 2003  Period.  This  decrease in expenses  resulted
primarily from a decrease in the provision for loss contingency of $7,086,338 in
interest expense of $1,420,658,  decrease in depreciation expense of $1,608,695,
decrease  in  management  fees  -  General  Partner  of  $264,481,  decrease  in
administrative  expense  reimbursement  - General  Partner  of  $99,053,  and an
overall decrease in general and  administrative  expenses of $198,097.  Interest
expense  decreased  primarily from the  relinquishment  of the non-recourse debt
associated with the Boeing Connexion and Sky Airlines transactions. Depreciation
expense  also  reduced  primarily  from the  termination  of leases  with Boeing
Connexion and Sky Airlines.  General and  administrative  expense and management
fees - General  Partner  reduced due to the reduction in the level of activities
of the Partnership's operation.

     Net Income/Loss of the Partnership

     As a result of the foregoing factors, net loss for the 2004 Period and 2003
Period was $(379,290) and $(7,767,594),  respectively. The net loss per weighted
average  limited  partnership  unit was $.51 and $10.35 for the 2004  Period and
2003 Period, respectively.

d.   Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Requirements

     The  Partnership  has  sufficient   funds  necessary  to  maintain  current
operations  and to continue to invest in business  essential  assets  subject to
lease.

Sources of Cash

     The  Partnership's  primary  sources of  liquidity  in the 2004 Period were
proceeds from financing activities whereby the Partnership received net proceeds
of  $7,314,461  from  the  refinancing  of  Portland   General   Electric  (PGE)
non-recourse debt, proceeds from sales of equipment of $1,194,307, proceeds from
sale of investment of unguaranteed residual values of $82,324, and distributions
received from  unconsolidated  joint ventures of $341,690 offset by cash used in
operating   activities  of  $593,007,   distributions  to  partners  aggregating
$1,962,572.  As a result of this activity, the Partnership's liquidity increased
over the 2003 Period, as cash used in operating and financing activities reduced
by $1,096,255 and $2,030,293, respectively.

Financings and Recourse Borrowings

     The Partnership paid its outstanding balance of recourse debt of $5,574,547
to  Comerica  Bank  from  proceeds  received  from  the  refinancing  of the PGE
non-recourse debt.

     The  Partnership,  along with certain of its  affiliates  -- ICON Cash Flow
Partners L.P.  Seven,  ICON Income Fund Eight B and ICON Income Fund Nine LLC --
are parties to a Loan and Security Agreement dated May 30, 2002, as amended (the
"Loan  Agreement")  between  themselves and Comerica Bank (the "Bank").  Certain
financial  covenants under the Loan Agreement were violated during 2003 and were
subsequently  cured.  The Bank has waived any defaults  that might have resulted
there from.

     The line of credit was extended to expire December 31, 2004. As of June 30,
2004, the LLC had no outstanding balance under the line. Aggregate borrowings by
all funds under the line of credit agreement  aggregated  $8,615,439 on June 30,
2004.

Distributions

     The Partnership  made cash  distributions to limited partners of $1,962,572
during the six months ended June 30, 2004. Such distributions are reflected as a
return of capital, as the Partnership recorded a loss for the six months.

Uncertainties

     As of June 30,  2004,  except as noted  above in the  Overview  section and
listed  below in the Risk  Factors  section,  and to the best of our  knowledge,
there were no known  trends or  demands,  commitments,  events or  uncertainties
which are likely to have a material  effect on  liquidity.  As cash is  realized
from  operations  or  borrowings,  the  Partnership  will  continue to invest in
transactions,  while retaining  sufficient cash to meet its reserve requirements
and recurring obligations.

e.   Inflation and Interest Rates

     The  potential  effects of inflation on the  Partnership  are  difficult to
predict.  If the general  economy  experiences  significant  rates of inflation,
however,  it could  affect  the  Partnership  in a number  of ways.  The cost of
equipment  acquisitions could increase with inflation and revenues from existing
leases would not generally increase with inflation,  as the Partnership does not
currently  have or expect to have rent  escalation  clauses tied to inflation in
its leases.  Nevertheless,  the anticipated  residual values to be realized upon
the sale or re-lease of equipment upon lease  terminations (and thus the overall
cash flow from the  Partnership's  leases)  may be  expected  to  increase  with
inflation as the cost of similar new and used equipment increases.

     If  interest  rates  increase  significantly,  the  lease  rates  that  the
Partnership  can obtain on future leases may be expected to increase as the cost
of capital is a  significant  factor in the pricing of lease  financing.  Leases
already  in place,  for the most  part,  would not be  affected  by  changes  in
interest rates.

Item 3.  Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk

     The  Partnership is exposed to certain market risks,  including  changes in
interest rates and the demand for equipment (and the related residuals) owned by
the Partnership and its investors.

     The  Partnership  manages its interest  rate risk by  obtaining  fixed rate
debt. The fixed rate debt service  obligation  streams are generally  matched by
fixed  rate  lease  receivable  streams  generated  by the  Partnership's  lease
investments.

     Additionally,  the Partnership  borrows funds under a floating rate line of
credit and is therefore  exposed to interest  rate risk until the floating  rate
line of credit is  repaid.  The  Partnership's  aggregate  borrowings  under the
floating  rate  line of  credit  as of June  30,  2004  were $0 as  compared  to
$4,184,547 at December 31, 2003. The  Partnership  believes the risk  associated
with rising interest rates under this line is not significant.

     The  Partnership  attempts to manage its exposure to equipment and residual
risk by monitoring  the market and  maximizing  re-marketing  proceeds  received
through re-lease or sale of equipment.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

     The Partnership  carried out an evaluation,  under the supervision and with
the  participation  of management of ICON Capital Corp.,  the General Partner of
the  Partnership,  including  the  Chief  Executive  Officer  and the  Principal
Financial  and  Accounting  Officer,  of the  effectiveness  of the  design  and
operation of the Partnership's  disclosure controls and procedures as of the end
of the period covered by this report pursuant to the Securities  Exchange Act of
1934. Based upon the evaluation,  the Chief Executive  Officer and the Principal
Financial and Accounting  Officer  concluded that the  Partnership's  disclosure
controls and procedures were effective.

     There were no significant  changes in the  Partnership's  internal  control
over  financial  reporting  during the  Partnership's  second  quarter that have
materially  affected,  or are likely to  materially  affect,  the  Partnership's
internal control over financial reporting.
