LEASTEC INCOME FUND III
A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1995, MARCH 31, 1994 AND DECEMBER 31, 1994
(UNAUDITED)
1. Basis of Condensed Financial Statement Preparation
--------------------------------------------------
In the opinion of the General Partner, the accompanying unaudited condensed
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting principally of normal,
recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of
Leastec Income Fund III (the Partnership) as of March 31, 1995, March 31, 1994
and December 31, 1994.
As provided for in the Partnership agreement and offering document, the
Partnership engaged in leasing activities which intended to be completed in
approximately ten years from its inception at which time all remaining cash is
to be distributed to the partners. The Partnership has presented its 1995
financial statements to reflect its leasing activities on a basis consistent
with prior periods.
2. Wind Down Phase
---------------
The Registrant has ceased acquisition of new capital equipment and is in the
process of liquidating its lease portfolio. It is intended that the Registrant
will be fully liquidated at the end of its tenth full year of operation,
December 1996.

ITEM II

LEASTEC INCOME FUND III
A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operation
- --------------------
The Registrant has been winding down operations since 1993 by
discontinuing new leasing activities and returning cash available from
operations to the Registrant's Partners. Although the Registrant has until
December 1997 to liquidate operations, the Registrant intends to be fully
liquidated by December 1996.
The majority of the operating leases have terminated with the remaining
operating lease equipment being fully depreciated. As the operating leases
terminate, the equipment is sold. The balance of the lease portfolio is invested
in Direct Finance leases which terminate with the lessees contractually required
purchase of equipment. The income and expenses of the Registrant are steadily
declining as the lease portfolio declines in size. The cash balances and related
interest income fluctuate according to the cash amounts received from equipment
sales and finance lease purchases during each quarter. Cash is distributed to
the Partners according to their respective tax basis capital accounts.
The Registrant reported net income of $83,630 or $1.06 per Limited
Partnership Unit for the three months ended March 31, 1995 as compared to net
income of $176,622 or $2.24 per Limited Partnership Unit for the three months
ended March 31, 1994.
Total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1995 were $177,312
compared to $358,823 for the same period in the prior year. As leases terminated
during the year, the majority of the equipment was not re-leased and was sold.
This decrease reflects the gradual liquidation of the Registrants lease
portfolio. Revenue derived from the Fund's equipment management activities
comprised 97% of the total income for the period, with the remaining 3% being
interest income.
Direct financing lease income decreased from March 31, 1994 to March 31,
1995 ($130,785 to $87,548 respectively). The net investment in direct financing
leases decreased from $2,300,267 at March 31, 1994 to $1,943,891 at March 31,
1995.
Other income remained relatively unchanged from March 31, 1994 to March 31,
1995 ($2,933 to $2,987 respectively).
Total expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1995 were $93,682
compared to $182,201 for the same period in the prior year. This decrease is
caused primarily by a reduction in depreciation expense which reflects the
complete depreciation of operating lease equipment portfolio. Management fees,
interest, and general and administrative costs comprised 91% of the total
expenses. The original cost of the equipment subject to operating leases
declined from $2,169,621 at year end 1994 to $1,816,712 at March 31, 1995.

<PAGE>
The gain on sale of equipment for the three months ended March 31, 1995 was
$13,836 an increase from $7,954 in the same period of 1994.
General and administrative costs increased slightly to $47,104 for the
first three months of 1995 from $43,678 for the same period in 1994.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Cash used by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 1995
was $195,876 compared to cash used of $42,745 for the same period in the prior
year. The decrease in cash from operating activities reflects the continued
winding down of the operating lease portfolio.
Cash from investing activities decreased from $416,668 in the first
quarter of 1994 to $370,172 in the first quarter of 1995 reflecting primarily
the decline in rental receipts from the direct finance lease portfolio. As
rental payment on finance leases are received, the cash is broken up into income
and return of principal. As finance leases are completed, the rental payments
received by the Registrant decline, and the related components of income and
return of principal decline as well. The decreasing return of principal is
reflected as a smaller decrease in net investment in direct financing leases
from $403,158 in 1994 to $356,876 in 1995.
Cash from financing activities was used to repay $17,654 of debt during the
three months ended March 31, 1995 as compared to $83,270 for the same period in
the prior year.
As of March 31, 1995, investors were allocated cash distributions of
$315,790 payable on April 14, 1995. Investor distributions depend on the timing
of equipment sales and collections of rents. As a result this amount can be
expected to decrease during 1995 and 1996 and to be variable in amount from
quarter to quarter depending on the timing of equipment sales.
The cash balance decreased from $726,178 at December 31, 1993, to $532,235
at March 31, 1994, and increased to $645,072 at December 31, 1994, and then
decreased to $486,465 at March 31, 1995.
The cash position as of March 31, 1995, was $486,465. The General Partner
anticipates that funds from operations will be adequate to cover all operating
expenses and future needs of the Partnership during 1995.
