NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION:

Datronic Equipment Income Fund XVI, L.P., a Delaware Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership"), was formed on April 21, 1987 for the purpose of acquiring and
leasing both high-and low-technology equipment.  Reference is made to Notes 3,
4, 5, and 6 to the Partnership's financial statements included in the 1996 Form
10-K for a discussion of the alleged diversion of Partnership assets in 1991
and 1992 and the subsequent litigation and settlement, change in general
partner, new classes of limited partners established,and amendments to the
Partnership Agreement which occurred.

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Partnership's financial statements included in the 1996 Form 10-K.  The
financial information furnished herein is unaudited but in the opinion of
Management includes all adjustments necessary (all of which are normal
recurring adjustments) for a fair presentation of financial condition and
results of operations.

NOTE 3 - LIMITED PARTNERSHIP DISTRIBUTIONS:

Distributions to Liquidating Limited Partners were suspended after payment of
the April 1, 1995 distribution.  Distributions to Continuing Limited Partners
were suspended after payment of the January 1, 1996 distribution.

NOTE 4 - INVESTMENT IN FORECLOSED PROPERTIES:

During 1991 and 1992, the Partnership acquired three real estate properties
through foreclosure on defaulted leases.  Two of the properties are subject to
separate lease agreements each containing renewal provisions exercisable by the
lessee under certain conditions.  One lease agreement extends to November, 1997
and provides rental payments of $220,000 for 1997.  The original term of the
second lease agreement expired in February 1997.  The tenant is continuing to
occupy the premises on a month-to-month basis with a monthly rental of $11,248.

PART I

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of liquidity and capital resources covers
material changes in the Partnership's financial condition from December 31,
1996 through June 30, 1997.  The discussion and analysis of results of
operations is for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 as
compared to the corresponding periods in 1996.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the six months ended June 30, 1997, Partnership assets continued to be
converted to cash which was used to, generally, pay Partnership operating
expenses and liquidate Partnership liabilities.

Net investment in direct financing leases decreased approximately $41,000
during the six months ended June 30, 1997 primarily due to principal
collections of approximately $211,000 partially offset by a credit for lease
losses of approximately $170,000.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased approximately $102,000 during
the six months ended June 30, 1997 primarily due to payment of accrued legal
fees.

Lessee rental deposits decreased approximately $67,000 resulting from payments
made to lessees at the end of lease term.

In the aggregate, partners' equity decreased approximately $74,000 due to a net
loss for the six months ended June 30, 1997.

During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Partnership's operating
activities resulted in a use of approximately $378,000 of cash.  This was due
principally to a net loss of approximately $74,000, decreases in accounts
payable and rental deposits of approximately $169,000 and a non-cash credit for
lease loss of approximately $170,000, partially offset by a decrease in due
from management company of approximately $35,000.  During the period, cash
flows from investing activities aggregated approximately $224,000 relating
primarily to principal collections on leases.

The Partnership's sources of liquidity on both a long-term and short-term basis
are expected to come principally from cash-on-hand and the rental or sale of
foreclosed properties.  In addition, the Partnership's sources of liquidity on
a long-term basis are expected to include proceeds from the sale of diverted
and other assets.  Management believes that its sources of liquidity in the
short and long-term are sufficient to meet its operating cash obligations and
provide for the ongoing pursuit of litigation, and an orderly




                                      13

liquidation of the Partnership.  Distributions to Liquidating Limited Partners
were suspended after the April 1, 1995 distribution and distributions to the
Continuing Limited Partners were suspended after the January 1, 1996
distribution.

The continued operation and eventual liquidation of the Partnership involves
numerous complex issues which have to be resolved.  These issues relate to the
timing and realizability of Diverted and other assets, Datronic assets,
litigation and the liquidation of the other Datronic Partnerships (see Notes 3,
5 and 9 to the Partnership's financial statements included in the 1996 Form
10-K). These issues make it difficult to predict the time and costs necessary
to operate and liquidate the Partnership in an orderly manner.  As a result of
these uncertainties, it is unlikely that any additional distributions will be
made until all remaining assets are liquidated and the pending litigation is
resolved.  The amount of future distributions, if any, to the Limited Partners
is likely to be significantly less than the amount of partners' equity
reflected in the June 30, 1997 Balance Sheets (see the financial statements
included in Item 1).


Results of Operations

Lease income decreased approximately $15,000 and $36,000 for the three and six
month periods ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the corresponding periods in
1996 primarily due to the declining lease portfolio.

Interest income decreased approximately $24,000 and $31,000 for the three and
six month periods ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the corresponding periods
in 1996.  This was primarily due to recognition in the second quarter of 1996
of approximately $18,000 of interest previously earned on restricted cash
balances.  The remaining decrease is due to a smaller amount of interest earned
in 1997 as a result of decreased cash balances.

Rental income increased approximately $7,000 and $28,000 for the three and six
month periods ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the corresponding periods in
1996, primarily due to rental rate increases.

Management fees-New Era represent amounts paid New Era for managing the
Partnership on a day-to-day basis pursuant to a Management Agreement which was
terminated effective June 30, 1996.  Accordingly, fees paid to New Era amounted
to zero for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 as compared to
approximately $187,000 and $375,000 for the corresponding periods in 1996.
Subsequent to June 30, 1996, the General Partner, Lease Resolution Corporation
("LRC"), has assumed responsibility for day-to-day management of the
Partnership and the corresponding costs and expenses are included in General
Partner's expense reimbursement (see Note 8 to the Partnership's financial
statements included in the 1996 Form 10-K).




                                      14
<PAGE>   15


The General Partner's expense reimbursement represents the amount paid to LRC
in its capacity as general partner. Total amounts paid to LRC were
approximately $179,000 and $349,000 for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 1997 as compared to $26,000 and $93,000 for the corresponding periods
in 1996.  The increases of approximately $153,000 and $256,000 primarily
represent incremental expenses associated with LRC's assumption of the day to
day management of the Partnership's operations effective July 1, 1996.  These
expenses were previously included in Management Fees-New Era (see Note 8 to the
Partnership's financial statements included in the 1996 Form 10-K).  Included
in the 1997 expenses is approximately $33,000 representing a one time expense
associated with the relocation of former New Era employees to reduced office
space.

Professional fees increased approximately $29,000 for the three month period
and decreased approximately $8,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 1997
as compared to the corresponding periods in 1996.  The increase results from
additional legal fees relating to Partnership claims against former accountants
and others, and collection fees partially offset by decreased audit fees and
other legal fees.  The decrease is due to reductions in audit fees and legal
fees for other matters partially offset by increased legal fees for
collections.

Other operating expenses decreased approximately $2,000 and $8,000 for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the
corresponding periods in 1996, primarily due to decreases in bank charges and
general fees.

The credit for lease losses reflects Management's ongoing assessment of
potential losses inherent in the lease portfolios and lease collections on
certain leases in excess of those anticipated in prior years.
