THACKERAY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 1999 and 1998
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the
preparation of these unaudited interim financial statements are
consistent with the accounting policies followed in the audited
annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Certain information and footnote disclosures included in the audited
financial statements have been omitted. For additional information,
reference is made to the financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders for the year
ended December 3l, 1998.
The net loss applicable to common stock for the nine month and three
month periods ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 was divided by the
number of shares outstanding during the period to determine per share
data.
2. INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE PARTNERSHIP AND INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE
In September 1999, the Company's real estate partnership closed $40
million of construction financing and simultaneously the Company
deeded 140 acres of its Orlando, Florida acreage with a basis of
$3.471 million to the partnership. The Company also pledged its
remaining contiguous 75 acres as additional collateral to secure the
construction loan.
In September 1999, the partnership revised the formulae for
determining preferential returns due the Company for its 140 acre
land contribution. Effective September 1999 and through March 2000,
such returns will approximate $20,000 monthly; thereafter, the
returns will approximate $45,000 monthly and will remain at that
level unless and until the partnership borrows approximately an
additional $70 million of construction financing at which time the
returns will approximate $110,000 monthly.
In August 1999, the Company contracted to sell its 99 year, with 73
years remaining, Dade County, Florida leasehold property to its
lessee for approximately $800,000, which represents the net present
value of all future rentals discounted at 8%. The carrying value of
the leasehold property is $425,000, and the revenue from such
property represents all of the Company's rental income in 1998 and
1999. The transaction closed in November 1999.

<PAGE>
3. INCOME TAXES
The Company anticipates it will generate Federal taxable income for
the year ending December 31, 1999, given the sale of the leasehold
property discussed in Note 2. However, the Company has net operating
loss carryforwards in excess of the anticipated taxable income, and
therefore it expects that no Federal income taxes will be payable for
the year ending December 31, 1999. In addition, the Company generated
a net Federal income tax loss for the year ended December 31, 1998.
According1y, no Federal income tax provisions have been made for the
nine month and three month periods ended September 30, 1999 and 1998.
4. STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS
There were no interest payments for the nine months ended September
30, 1999 and 1998.
There were no income tax payments during the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 and 1998.

<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
(1) Material Changes in Financial Condition
The Company anticipates that its current cash and cash
equivalent balance will be sufficient to fund its requirements for
the foreseeable future.
At September 30, 1999 the Company had no commitments for
capital expenditures.
(2) Material Changes in Results of Operations
Rental income was $48,000 in each of the nine month periods
ended September 30, 1999 and 1998.
General and administrative expenses were $417,000 in the
first nine months of 1999 versus $435,000 for the comparable period
in 1998. The nine months of 1998 included one time costs related to
listing on the American Stock Exchange.
Interest income for the nine months ended September 30,
1999 was $171,000, which was $38,000 lower than the amount for the
comparable prior year period. The decrease results from the
Company's maintaining lower cash investment balances and receiving
lower yields on invested funds.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not applicable.
