                NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                              
OPINIONS OF MANAGEMENT

   In  the opinion of management, the accompanying financial
statements  contain  all  adjustments  (consisting  of  only
normal  recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly  the
financial  position  as of June 30,  1996,  the  results  of
operations and cash flow for the period then ended.

   In  the  opinion of management, the results of operations
for   the  three  months  ended  June,  30,  1996  are   not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
full year.

  Summary of the Company's significant accounting policies
are incorporated by reference to the Company's March 31,
1996 Annual Report filed under cover of Form 10-K.
   The  financial statements presented were  prepared  on  a
proforma  consolidated  basis.  This  gives  effect  to  the
combination of Eldorado Artesian Springs, Inc. and Lexington
Funding,  Inc.  as if it had occurred April 1,  1986.   This
business   combination  was  accounted  for  as  a   reverse
acquisition using the purchase method in a manner similar to
a  pooling of interests. The management of Eldorado Artesian
Springs, Inc. has retained control of the combined entity.

   Income  per common share is computed by dividing the  net
income  by  the weighted average number of shares of  common

            MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
       OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
                              
Revenues  for the three months ended June 30, 1996 increased
23.5%  to  $616,939 versus $499,382 for the same  period  in
1995.   By comparison Costs of Goods Sold increased by  only
19%  even  though  12.4% of revenues were derived  from  the
small  package wholesale products, versus 10.3% of  revenues
from  the  wholesale products in 1995.  The  lower  cost  of
goods is attributable to more aggressive purchasing programs
instituted in the quarter.  Additionally, operating expenses
increased by 14.4% and interest expense decreased  by  14.6%
as  a result of the debt restructuring completed in March of
1996.
As  a  result of the increased revenues and lesser rates  of
increases  in the cost structure net income for  the  period
increased  5,468% from $919 to $51,177 for the three  months
ended June 30, 1996.
During  the  three  month period ended  June  13,  1996  the
company   invested  $62,742  on  additions  to   plant   and
equipment.   This is slightly less than the  same  period  a
year  ago when $104,800 was invested.  However, whereas last
year's  purchases required additional debt  to  be  incurred
totaling  $98,640 this year's purchases were  100%  financed
from  cash generated by operations.  This was made  possible
by  the  cash flows resulting from the positive cash impacts
of  the aforementioned debt restructuring completed in March
1996.
Management  believes these positive cash  flow  trends  will
continue  to provide sufficient funds to continue  to  allow
the  company to fund growth internally with no additions  to
long term debt.
