NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION:

Datronic Equipment Income Fund XVIII, L.P., a Delaware Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership"), was formed on April 12, 1989 for the purpose of acquiring and
leasing both high- and low-technology equipment. See Notes 5, 8, and 10 to the
Partnership's financial statements included in the 1998 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 that 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 1998 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. See Note 2 to the Partnership's financial statements
included in the 1998 Form 10-K.

NOTE 3 - LIMITED PARTNERSHIP DISTRIBUTIONS:

In early April 1999, the Partnership made a cash distribution to Limited
Partners who were owners of record on December 31, 1998. This distribution
consisted of two components: (i) the net proceeds from the Price Waterhouse and
Weiss & Company legal actions ($127,000 and $446,000 for Liquidating and
Continuing Limited Partners respectively), and (ii) residual cash resulting
from the net cash flows of the Partnership ($1,629,000 and $4,173,000 for
Liquidating and Continuing Limited Partners respectively). The portion of the
distribution attributable to legal action proceeds was allocated to each
Limited Partner based on the number of units held at the rate of $2.87 per
unit. See Note 8 to the Partnership's financial statements included in the 1998
Form 10-K. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, residual cash was allocated 
to each Limited Partner based on their proportionate share of total partners'
capital attributable to their Class.

NOTE 4 - RESIDUAL INTEREST IN CRCA:

Residual interest in CRCA represents the Partnership's fully reserved 65% (35%
for Fund XX) interest in the remaining assets of Computer Rental Corp. of
America, Inc. (CRCA). These assets consisted of a $4.2 million subordinated
note receivable from Personal Computer Rental Corporation (PCR) and $136,000 of
cash. See Note 4 to the

                   DATRONIC EQUIPMENT INCOME FUND XVIII, L.P.
                 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED


financial statements included in the 1998 Form 10-K. In early April, 1999, CRCA
sold the $4.2 million subordinated note to PCR's senior secured creditor for
$250,000. The Partnership's share of these proceeds along with its share of
CRCA's residual cash, after payment of expenses, will be credited to its
provision for lease losses when distributed to the Partnership.

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,
1998 through March 31, 1999. The discussion and analysis of results of
operations is for the three month period ended March 31, 1999 as compared to
the corresponding period in 1998. Any capitalized term not defined herein has 
been defined or discussed in the Partnership's 1998 Form 10-K.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the three months ended March 31, 1999, Partnership assets continued to
be converted to cash in order to pay Partnership operating expenses and provide
for the ultimate liquidation of the Partnership. During the three months ended
March 31, 1999, Partnership cash and cash equivalents increased by $65,000 to
$9,577,000 at March 31, 1999 from $9,512,000 at December 31, 1998. This
increase is primarily due to cash receipts from collections on leases of
$110,000, partially offset by cash used in operations of $45,000.

In early April 1999, the Partnership made a cash distribution to Limited
Partners who were owners of record on December 31, 1998. This distribution
consisted of two components: (i) the net proceeds from the Price Waterhouse and
Weiss & Company legal actions ($127,000 and $446,000 for Liquidating and
Continuing Limited Partners respectively), and (ii) residual cash resulting
from the net cash flows of the Partnership ($1,629,000 and $4,173,000 for
Liquidating and Continuing Limited Partners respectively). The portion of the
distribution attributable to legal action proceeds was allocated to each
Limited Partner based on the number of units held at the rate of $2.87 per
unit. See Note 8 to the Partnership's financial statements included in the 1998
Form 10-K. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, residual cash was allocated 
to each Limited Partner based on their proportionate share of total partners'
capital attributable to their Class.

The Partnership's sources of future liquidity are expected to come from
remaining cash-on-hand after the April 1999 distribution, the cash receipts
from leases owned by the Partnership as well as the disposition of Diverted
Assets (consisting primarily of an office building in Schaumburg, Illinois).
The lease portfolio is scheduled to be fully liquidated by May 2000. The
general partner expects the Diverted Assets to be converted to cash during 1999
thereby enabling the Partnership to pay an additional distribution in early
2000. After all assets are disposed of and the proceeds are distributed to the
limited partners, the Partnership will be required to file final


                                      12
<PAGE>   13

reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Internal Revenue
Service. The general partner expects this to occur sometime during the year
2000.

Results of Operations

The Partnership had a net loss of $117,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1999 in the aggregate for all classes of partners. This compares to net
earnings of $173,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998. Differences in
operating results between Liquidating and Continuing Limited Partners are
attributable to lease income and expenses associated with new lease investments
made since the March 4, 1993 Settlement. Liquidating Limited Partners do not
participate in these post Settlement activities. Significant factors affecting
overall operating results for the periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 include
the following:

Lease income:

Since April 1995, the Partnership has been in its Liquidating Phase which
prohibits investing in any new leases. Accordingly, the lease portfolio has
continued to decrease as collections are made, resulting in a continued decline
in lease income. This trend will continue as the Partnership liquidates its
remaining leases.

Interest income:

Interest income includes earnings on invested cash balances. Interest income
for 1999 was higher than 1998 because of higher average invested cash balances.

General Partner's expense reimbursement:

General Partner's expense reimbursement includes payments to LRC for expenses
it incurred as general partner in excess of those covered by its partner
distributions. These expenses include expenses incurred by LRC in its
management of the day-to-day operations of the Partnership.

Professional fees:

Professional fees for the three months ended March 31, 1999 reflect a
decreasing level of professional services required as a result of the decrease
in the Partnership's lease portfolio and related activities. Included in the
1998 amount are fees paid in connection with the litigation against the
Partnership's former accountants.

Credit for lease losses:

This credit reflects recovery of previously reserved balances. The 1998 amount
also includes a $384,000 recovery against the Master Lease agreement with CRCA.
See Note 4 to the Partnership's financial statements included in the 1998 Form
10-K.
