1.   Organization:

     Lehman  CMO  Inc. (the "Company") is a special  purpose
     finance  corporation  organized  for  the  purpose   of
     issuing  and  selling  Mortgage-Backed  Sequential  Pay
     Bonds  (the "Bonds") collateralized primarily by  pass-
     through  mortgage-backed certificates  and/or  mortgage
     loans  (the  "Certificates").  All of  the  outstanding
     capital stock is owned by Lehman Commercial Paper  Inc.
     ("LCPI"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Lehman
     Brothers Holdings Inc. ("Holdings").
     
     The  Company  derives  its income from  trading  and/or
     interest  earned on securities owned.   Trading  income
     includes  the profit (loss) from the issuance and  sale
     of  securities and valuing securities owned, if any, at
     market value.
     
     The Company has filed registration statements on Form S-
     3  with  the  Securities and Exchange  Commission  (the
     "Commission") which permit the Company to  issue,  from
     time  to time, Bonds in principal amount not to  exceed
     $5.5  billion.  No Bonds have been issued for the  nine
     months  ended August 31, 1995.  As of August 31,  1995,
     approximately $816 million was available  for  issuance
     under the registration statements referred to above.
     
     The   Company   has  issued  Bonds  collateralized   by
     Certificates.  The Company has surrendered  all  future
     economic  interests  in  the  Bonds,  Certificates  and
     Collateral.   According to the  terms  of  the  various
     trust agreements, the Bond and Certificate holders  can
     look  only  to the related collateral for repayment  of
     both   principal  and  interest.   In  accordance  with
     generally accepted accounting principles, the Bonds and
     Certificates  have been removed from  the  accompanying
     Statements of Financial Condition.

     During the nine months ended August 31, 1995, LCPI made
     capital contributions to the Company of $26,253.
                              
 2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
     
     Income Taxes:
     
     The  Company  is  included  in  the  consolidated  U.S.
     federal  income tax return of Holdings and in  combined
     state  and  local  returns  with  other  affiliates  of
     Holdings.  The Company computes its income tax  benefit
     on  a  separate return basis in accordance with  a  tax
     allocation   agreement   between   Holdings   and   its
     subsidiaries.  The benefit for income taxes is  greater
     than  that calculated by applying the statutory federal
     income  tax  rate  principally due to state  and  local
     taxes.
     
 3.  Related Party Transactions:
     
     All  Certificates used to collateralize the  Bonds  are
     purchased from and recorded at an affiliate's  carrying
     value,  which  for broker/dealer affiliates  represents
     market value.
     
     Certain directors and officers of the Company are  also
     directors  and officers of Lehman Brothers Inc.,  LCPI,
     and/or other affiliates of the Company.
     
     Pursuant  to  a management agreement (the "Agreement"),
     the  Company  is charged a management fee  for  various
     services rendered on its behalf by LCPI.  The Agreement
     provides  for  an allocation of costs  based  upon  the
     level  of activity processed by LCPI on behalf  of  the
     Company.   Management  fees of  $15,000  for  the  nine
     months ended August 31, 1995 and $13,333 for the  eight
     months  ended August 31, 1994 are included  in  general
     and   administrative  expenses  in   the   accompanying
     Statements  of Operations.  The Agreement is  renewable
     each  year  unless expressly terminated or renegotiated
     by the parties.
     
     Compensation expense includes amounts allocated to  the
     Company by LCPI for compensation paid to certain common
     officers and directors of the Company.
     
     The  Company  believes  that  amounts  arising  through
     related party transactions, including fees referred  to
     above, are reasonable and approximate the amounts  that
     would have been recorded if the Company operated as  an
     unaffiliated entity.
     
 4.  Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk and
     Concentration of Credit Risk:
     
     The Company's activities are principally conducted with
     brokers, dealers and financial institutions.  At August
     31,  1995,  the  Company  had  no  material  individual
     counterparty concentration of credit risk.
     
 5.  Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)  No.
     107,   "Disclosures  About  Fair  Value  of   Financial
     Instruments," requires disclosure of the fair values of
     most  on-  and off-balance sheet financial instruments,
     for  which  it  is  practicable to estimate  that  fair
     value.   The  scope  of SFAS No. 107  excludes  certain
     financial  instruments, such as trade  receivables  and
     payables when the carrying value approximates the  fair
     value,  employee  benefit  obligations  and  all   non-
     financial instruments, such as fixed assets.  The  fair
     value  of  the  Company's assets and liabilities  which
     qualify  as  financial instruments under SFAS  No.  107
     approximate  the  carrying  amounts  presented  in  the
     Statements of Financial Condition.

 6.  Change of Fiscal Year-End:

     During  1994,  the  Company changed its  year-end  from
     December  31 to November 30.  Such a change to  a  non-
     calendar  cycle  shifts certain year-end administrative
     activities  to a time period that conflicts  less  with
     the   business   needs   of   Holdings'   institutional
     customers.  In conjunction with the decision to  change
     its  year-end,  the  Company  is  reporting  its  third
     quarter  1994  results on the basis of its  new  fiscal
     year.

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

     Set forth below is management's discussion and analysis
     of financial condition and results of operations for
     the nine months ended August 31, 1995 and eight monhts
     ended August  31, 1994.

     During the nine months ended August 31, 1995 and eight
     months ended August 31, 1994, the Company had no
     issuances of securities.  As such, no related income
     was recorded.
     
     Interest income decreased from $1,265 and $465 during
     the eight months and quarter ended August 31, 1994 to
     $203 and $75 during the nine months and quarter ended
     August 31, 1995 principally due to a decrease in
     interest bearing deposits.
     
     General and administrative expenses includes management
     fees of $15,000 for the nine months ended August 31,
     1995 and $13,333 for the eight months ended August 31,
     1994.
