IEA INCOME FUND VIII,
A California Limited Partnership

Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements

(1)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a)  Nature of Operations



| |  |  | IEA Income Fund VIII, A California Limited Partnership (the
Partnership), was organized under the laws of the State of California
on August 31, 1987 for the purpose of owning and leasing marine cargo
containers worldwide to ocean carriers. To this extent, the
Partnerships operations are subject to the fluctuations of world
economic and political conditions. Such factors may affect the pattern
and levels of world trade. The Partnership believes that the
profitability of, and risks associated with, leases to foreign customers
is generally the same as those of leases to domestic customers. The
Partnerships leases generally require all payments to be made in United
States currency.

| |  |  | Cronos Capital Corp. (CCC) is the general partner and, with its
affiliate Cronos Containers Limited (the Leasing Company), manages the
business of the Partnership. CCC and the Leasing Company also manage the
container leasing business for other partnerships affiliated with CCC.
The Partnership shall continue until December 31, 2008, unless sooner
terminated upon the occurrence of certain events.

| |  |  | The Partnership commenced operations on January 6, 1988, when the minimum
subscription proceeds of $1,000,000 were obtained. The Partnership
offered 40,000 units of limited partnership interest at $500 per unit, or
$20,000,000. The offering terminated on August 31, 1988, at which time
21,493 limited partnership units had been sold.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     

(b)  Leasing Company and Leasing Agent Agreement



| |  |  | Pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership,
all authority to administer the business of the Partnership is vested in
CCC. A Leasing Agent Agreement exists between CCC and the Leasing
Company, whereby the Leasing Company has the responsibility to manage the
leasing operations of all equipment owned by the Partnership. Pursuant
to the Agreement, the Leasing Company is responsible for leasing,
managing and re-leasing the Partnerships containers to ocean carriers,
and has full discretion over which ocean carriers and suppliers of goods
and services it may deal with. The Leasing Agent Agreement permits the
Leasing Company to use the containers owned by the Partnership, together
with other containers owned or managed by the Leasing Company and its
affiliates, as part of a single fleet operated without regard to
ownership. Since the Leasing Agent Agreement meets the definition of an
operating lease in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
13, it is accounted for as a lease under which the Partnership is lessor
and the Leasing Company is lessee.
| |  |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| |  |  | The Leasing Agent Agreement generally provides that the Leasing
Company will make payments to the Partnership based upon rentals
collected from ocean carriers after deducting direct operating expenses
and management fees to CCC. The Leasing Company leases containers to
ocean carriers, generally under operating leases which are either master
leases or term leases (mostly one to five years). Master leases do not
specify the exact number of containers to be leased or the term that each
container will remain on hire but allow the ocean carrier to pick up and
drop off containers at various locations, and rentals are based upon the
number of containers used and the applicable per-diem rate. Accordingly,
rentals under master leases are all variable and contingent upon the
number of containers used. Most containers are leased to ocean carriers
under master leases; leasing agreements with fixed payment terms are not
material to the financial statements. Since there are no material
minimum lease rentals, no disclosure of minimum lease rentals is provided
in these financial statements.

(c)  Basis of Accounting



| |  |  | The Partnership utilizes the accrual method of accounting. Net lease
revenue is recorded by the Partnership in each period based upon its
leasing agent agreement with the Leasing Company. Net lease revenue is
generally dependent upon operating lease rentals from operating lease
agreements between the Leasing Company and its various lessees, less
direct operating expenses and management fees due in respect of the
containers specified in each operating lease agreement.
| |  |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(d)  Container Rental Equipment



| |  |  | In accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, container rental equipment is considered
to be impaired if the carrying value of the asset exceeds the expected
future cash flows from related operations (undiscounted and without
interest charges). If impairment is deemed to exist, the assets are
written down to fair value. An analysis is prepared each quarter
projecting future cash flows from container rental equipment operations.
Current and projected utilization rates, per-diem rental rates, direct
operating expenses, fleet size and container disposals are the primary
variables utilized by the analysis. Additionally, the Partnership
evaluates future cash flows and potential impairment by container type
rather than for each individual container, and as a result, future losses
could result for individual container dispositions due to various
factors, including age, condition, suitability for continued leasing, as
well as the geographical location of containers when disposed. There were
no impairment charges to the carrying value of container rental equipment
for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.
| |  |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| |  |  | Depreciation policies are also evaluated to determine whether subsequent
events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives.
Container rental equipment is depreciated using the straight-line basis.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       

(e)  Use of Estimates



| |  |  | The financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP),
which requires the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          
| |  |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| |  |  | The most significant estimates included within the financial statements
are the container rental equipment estimated useful lives and residual
values, and the estimate of future cash flows from container rental
equipment operations, used to determine the adequacy of the carrying
value of container rental equipment in accordance with SFAS No. 144.
Considerable judgement is required in estimating future cash flows from
container rental equipment operations. Accordingly, the estimates may
not be indicative of the amounts that may be realized in future periods.
As additional information becomes available in subsequent periods,
reserves for the impairment of the container rental equipment carrying
values may be necessary based upon changes in market and economic
conditions.

(4) Operating Segment



| |  | An operating segment is a component of an enterprise that engages in
business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses,
whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the enterprises chief
operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated
to the segment and assess its performance, and about which separate
financial information is available. Management operates the Partnerships
container fleet as a homogenous unit and has determined that as such it has
a single reportable operating segment.

| |  | The Partnership derives its revenues from leasing marine dry cargo
containers. As of June 30, 2003, the Partnership operated 534 twenty-foot,
514 forty-foot and 30 forty-foot high-cube marine dry cargo containers.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

It is suggested that the following discussion be read in conjunction with the
Registrants most recent annual report on
Form 10-K.

General

Pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership, all authority
to administer the business of the Partnership is vested in CCC. A Leasing
Agent Agreement exists between CCC and the Leasing Company, whereby the Leasing
Company has the responsibility to manage the leasing operations of all
equipment owned by the Registrant. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Leasing
Company is responsible for leasing, managing and re-leasing the Registrants
containers to ocean carriers, and has full discretion over which ocean carriers
and suppliers of goods and services it may deal with. The Leasing Agent
Agreement permits the Leasing Company to use the containers owned by the
Registrant, together with other containers owned or managed by the Leasing
Company and its affiliates, as part of a single fleet operated without regard
to ownership. At June 30, 2003, 23% of the original equipment remained in the
Registrants fleet, as compared to 25% at December 31, 2002. The following
chart summarizes the composition of the Registrants fleet (based on container
type) at June 30, 2003.

The favorable market conditions that existed at the end of 2002 continued
through the first six months of 2003, allowing the Registrant to maintain a
high level of utilization for its containers. At June 30, 2003, the
Registrants utilization measured 85% as compared to 84% at December 31, 2002.

Commencing with the later half of 2002 and continuing through the first six
months of 2003, the demand for leased containers by the global container
shipping industry has contributed to reducing off-hire inventories primarily in
Asia, and to a lesser extent Europe and North America. In many parts of Asia
and particularly in the south eastern ports, the demand for cargo containers
continued to exceed available supplies. The continued strong demand for leased
containers is primarily attributable to a favorable shipping market during
2003, combined with shipping lines purchasing fewer containers for their own
account due to recent operating losses and requirements to deploy capital
within other parts of their business. As a result, shipping lines have
strategically made the decision to employ leased containers to meet their
container requirements. However, in response to a favorable shipping market,
there are indications of an increased willingness by the shipping lines to
purchase and finance the acquisition of new containers at higher levels in the
near future, which may impact the demand for leased containers.

The favorable shipping market conditions have also resulted in the shipping
lines diminishing discrimination against leasing older containers, a condition
that exists during periods of surplus container supply. The slowdown and
uneven recovery in the global economy during the 2001-2002 period led to
reduced levels of capital available for new container investment. The lower
levels of new container production during 2001 and the first half of 2002
addressed, to some extent, the problems of container

over-supply created by the
higher levels of new container production achieved during 1999 and 2000. A
favorable 2003 shipping market, combined with the current shortfall of
containers, is expected to result in an increase in the production of new
containers during 2003, in comparison to 2002 and 2001 production levels.
However, new container production is expected to remain below the record
container production levels achieved during 2000. The ultimate impact of the
industrys increase in new container production on the Registrants operations
is not immediately known, however, new container availability may reduce the
demand for the Registrants older containers.

Although favorable market conditions for container lessors currently exists,
the uncertainty over the financial strength of the shipping industry remains a
concern. Current conditions appear to favor the larger more established
shipping lines, which have witnessed strong recoveries in their performance.
The Registrant, CCC and the Leasing Company continue to remain cautious, as
some shipping lines reported operating losses during 2002, while others have
recently become insolvent during the first half of 2003. The financial impact
of such losses for these shipping lines may eventually influence the demand for
leased containers as some shipping lines may experience additional financial
difficulties, consolidate or become insolvent. Although the ultimate outcome,
as well as its impact on the container leasing industry and the Registrants
results of operations, is unknown, CCC, on behalf of the Registrant, will work
closely with the Leasing Company to monitor outstanding receivables,
collections, and credit exposure to various existing and new customers.

Lastly, wide-ranging concerns remain regarding recovery of the worlds major
economies, performance of global stock markets, geopolitical concerns arising
from uncertainties within the Middle East and Asia, as well as the recent
increase in new container production, all of which may temper the current
demand for leased containers.

The Registrants average fleet size and utilization rates for the three and
six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were as follows:

Since the beginning of 2002, the combined per-diem rate for the Registrants
fleet of dry cargo containers declined by approximately 24%. Most of this
decline occurred in the first three months of 2002 and is attributable to three
main factors:



| | 1. |  | Per-diem rental rates decreased in correlation with the reduction of
new container prices and interest rate levels;                                                                                                
| | -- |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| | 2. |  | The Leasing Company converted lease agreements with certain shipping
lines from master to long-term lease, providing greater revenue stability
but at lower lease rates than those earned under master leases; and,
|
| | 3. |  | The Leasing Company initiated new long-term leases for older equipment
resulting in lower per-diem rates, while significantly reducing off-hire
container inventory levels.                                        

Although per-diem rental rates have declined over the last 18 months to their
current levels, slight increases in new container prices and an increase in
demand for leased containers have resulted in the stabilization of per-diem
rental rates since the second half of 2002. A significant improvement in lease
per-diem rates is not expected until new container prices increase to much
higher levels.

The primary component of the Registrants results of operations is net lease
revenue. Net lease revenue is determined by deducting direct operating
expenses, management and incentive fees and reimbursed administrative expenses,
from rental revenues billed by the Leasing Company from the leasing of the
Registrants containers. Net lease revenue is directly related to the size,
utilization and per-diem rental rates of the Registrants fleet.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30,
2002

Net lease revenueof $41,299 for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was
$8,097 lower than the corresponding period of 2002. The decrease was due to a
$25,262 decline in gross rental revenue (a component of net lease revenue) from
the same period in 2002. Gross rental revenue was impacted by the Registrants
smaller fleet size and lower per-diem rental rates. Other components of net
lease revenue, including management and incentive fees, rental equipment
operating expense and reimbursed administrative expenses, were lower by a
combined $17,165 when compared to the corresponding period in 2002, partially
offsetting the decline in gross lease revenue. The decline in rental equipment
operating expenses was primarily attributable to the Registrants reduction in
fleet size.

Depreciation expenseof $38,830 for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was
$46,551 lower than the same period in 2002, a direct result of the Registrants
reduction in fleet size.

Other general and administrative expenseswere $10,448 for the three months
ended June 30, 2003, a decrease of $2,776 when compared to the corresponding
period in 2002. Contributing to this decrease were reduced professional fees.

Net gain on disposal of equipmentwas a result of the Registrant disposing of
51 containers during the three-month period ended June 30, 2003, as compared to
164 containers during the same period in 2002. These disposals resulted in a
net gain of $12,123 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003, as compared
to a net loss of $8,669 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002. The
Registrant believes that the net gain on container disposals in the three-month
period ended June 30, 2003 was a result of various factors including the volume
of disposed containers, age, condition, suitability for continued leasing, as
well as the geographical location of the containers when disposed. These
factors will continue to influence the decision to repair or dispose of a
container when it is returned by a lessee, as well as the amount of sales
proceeds received and the related gain or loss on container disposals. The
level of the Registrants container disposals in subsequent periods will also
contribute to fluctuations in the net gain or loss on disposals. There were no
reductions to the carrying value of container rental equipment during the
three-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2002

Net lease revenueof $83,570 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $23,281
lower than the corresponding period of 2002. The decrease was due to a $72,208
decline in gross rental revenue (a component of net lease revenue) from the
same period in 2002. Gross rental revenue was impacted by the Registrants
smaller fleet size and lower per-diem rental rates. Other components of net
lease revenue, including management and incentive fees, rental equipment
operating expense and reimbursed administrative expenses were lower by a
combined $48,927 when compared to the corresponding period in 2002. The
decline in rental equipment operating expenses were attributable to the
Registrants reduction in fleet size. The decline in these components of net
lease revenue partially offset the decline in gross lease revenue.

Depreciation expenseof $96,420 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was
$84,668 lower than the same period in 2002, a direct result of the Registrants
reduction in fleet size.

Other general and administrative expenseswere $24,329 for the six months ended
June 30, 2003, a decrease of $1,460 when compared to the corresponding period
in 2002.

Net loss on disposal of equipmentwas a result of the Registrant disposing of
98 containers during the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, as compared to
290 containers during the same period in 2002. These disposals resulted in a
net gain of $17,598 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, as compared
to a net loss of $8,330 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002. There
were no reductions to the carrying value of container rental equipment during
the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash from Operating Activities: Net cash provided by operating activities was
$54,601 and $88,625 during the first six months of 2003 and 2002, respectively,
primarily generated from the billing and collection of net lease revenue.

Cash from Investing Activities: Net cash provided by investing activities
during the six-month periods ending June 30, 2003 and 2002, included sales
proceeds generated from the sale of rental equipment of $85,588 and $202,666,
respectively.

Cash from Financing Activities: Net cash used in financing activities was
$68,006 during the first six months of 2003 compared to $324,916 in the
corresponding period of 2002. These amounts represent distributions to the
Registrants general and limited partners. The Registrants continuing
container disposals, as well as current market conditions, should produce lower
operating results and, consequently, lower distributions to its partners in
subsequent periods. Sales proceeds distributed to its partners may fluctuate
in subsequent periods, reflecting the level of container disposals. Effective
October 1, 2002, the Registrant suspended distributions of cash generated from
operations in an effort to reserve all excess cash as part of its working
capital in order to maintain sufficient cash reserves for expenses related to
its final liquidation and subsequent dissolution. The Registrant may also
refrain from distributing cash generated from sales proceeds to its partners in
subsequent periods.

Capital Resources

Aside from the initial working capital reserve retained from the gross
subscription proceeds (equal to approximately .7% of such proceeds), the
Registrant relied primarily on container rental receipts to generate
distributions and proceeds from container sales to its general and limited
partners, as well as to finance current operating needs. No credit lines are
maintained to finance working capital.

Critical Accounting Policies

Container equipment  depreciable lives: Container rental equipment is
depreciated over a useful life of 15 years to a residual value of 10%. The
Registrant re-evaluates the period of amortization and residual values to
determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates
of useful lives and residual values.

Container equipment  valuation:The Registrant reviews container rental
equipment when changes in circumstances require consideration as to whether the
carrying value of the equipment has become impaired, pursuant to guidance
established in SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets. The Registrant considers assets to be impaired if the
carrying value of the asset exceeds the future projected cash flows from
related operations (undiscounted and without interest charges). When
impairment is deemed to exist, the assets are written down to fair value or
projected discounted cash flows from related operations. The Registrant
periodically evaluates future cash flows and potential impairment of its fleet
by container type rather than for each individual container. Therefore, future
losses could result for individual container dispositions due to various
factors including age, condition, suitability for continued leasing, as well as
geographic location of the containers where disposed. Considerable judgment is
required in estimating future cash flows from container rental equipment
operations. Accordingly, the estimates may not be indicative of the amounts
that may be realized in future periods. As additional information becomes
available in subsequent periods, reserves for the impairment of the container
rental equipment carrying values may be necessary based upon changes in market
and economic conditions.

Inflation

The Registrant believes inflation has not had a material adverse effect on the
results of its operations.




Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Exchange rate risk:Substantially all of the Registrants revenues are billed
and paid in US dollars and a significant portion of costs are billed and paid
in US dollars. The Leasing Company believes that the proportion of US dollar
revenues may decrease in future years, reflecting a more diversified customer
base and lease portfolio. Of the remaining costs, the majority are
individually small, unpredictable and incurred in various denominations and
thus are not suitable for cost effective hedging.

The Leasing Company may hedge a portion of the expenses that are predictable
and are principally in UK pounds sterling. As exchange rates are outside of
the control of the Registrant and Leasing Company, there can be no assurance
that such fluctuations will not adversely affect its results of operations and
financial condition.

The principal executive and principal financial officers of CCC have evaluated
the disclosure controls and procedures of the Registrant within 90 days prior
to the filing of this quarterly report. As used herein, the term disclosure
controls and procedures has the meaning given to the term by Rule 13a-14 under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), and includes

that information required to be disclosed by the Registrant in the reports that
it files with the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms.
Based upon their evaluation, the principal executive and principal financial
officers of CCC have concluded that the Registrants disclosure controls and
procedures provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be
disclosed by the Registrant in this report is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms
applicable to the preparation of this report.

in other factors that could significantly affect the Registrants internal
controls subsequent to the evaluation described above conducted by CCCs
principal executive and financial officers.
