           Quarters and Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997 and 1996


1.       Basis of Presentation:

         The accompanying  unaudited  condensed  financial  statements have been
         prepared in accordance  with the  instructions  to Form 10-Q and do not
         include  all  of the  information  and  note  disclosures  required  by
         generally  accepted  accounting  principles.  The financial  statements
         reflect all adjustments,  consisting of normal  recurring  adjustments,
         which are, in the opinion of management,  necessary to a fair statement
         of the results for the interim periods presented. Operating results for
         the  quarter and nine  months  ended  September  30,  1997,  may not be
         indicative  of the  results  that may be  expected  for the year ending
         December  31, 1997.  Amounts as of December  31, 1996,  included in the
         financial   statements,   have  been  derived  from  audited  financial
         statements as of that date.

         These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with
         the financial  statements and notes thereto included in CNL Income Fund
         VIII, Ltd.'s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.

         CNL Income Fund VIII,  Ltd.  (the  "Partnership")  accounts  for its 88
         percent  interest  in Woodway  Joint  Venture  using the  consolidation
         method.   Minority  interest  represents  the  minority  joint  venture
         partner's  proportionate  share  of the  equity  in  the  Partnership's
         consolidated joint venture. All significant  intercompany  accounts and
         transactions have been eliminated.

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

         CNL Income Fund VIII,  Ltd. (the  "Partnership")  is a Florida  limited
partnership  that was organized on August 18, 1989, to acquire for cash,  either
directly or through  joint  venture  arrangements,  both newly  constructed  and
existing  restaurants,  as  well  as  land  upon  which  restaurants  were to be
constructed  (the  "Properties"),  which are leased  primarily  to  operators of
national and regional  fast-food and family-style  restaurant chains. The leases
are generally  triple-net leases,  with the lessees  responsible for all repairs
and maintenance,  property taxes,  insurance and utilities.  As of September 30,
1997,  the  Partnership  owned  36  Properties,   including  interests  in  nine
Properties owned by joint ventures in which the Partnership is a co-venturer.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The  Partnership's  primary source of capital for the nine months ended
September  30, 1997 and 1996,  was cash from  operations  (which  includes  cash
received from tenants, distributions from joint ventures, and interest and other
income  received,  less  cash  paid for  expenses).  Cash  from  operations  was
$2,694,116 and $2,647,878 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.  The  increase in cash from  operations  for the nine months ended
September  30, 1997,  is primarily a result of changes in income and expenses as
discussed in "Results of  Operations"  below,  and changes in the  Partnership's
working capital.

         Currently,  rental income from the Partnership's Properties is invested
in money market accounts or other short-term,  highly liquid investments pending
the  Partnership's  use of such  funds to pay  Partnership  expenses  or to make
distributions  to the  partners.  At September  30, 1997,  the  Partnership  had
$1,537,453 invested in such short-term investments, as compared to $1,476,274 at
December 31, 1996.  The  increase in cash and cash  equivalents  during the nine
months  ended  September  30,  1997,  was  partially  offset by the payment of a
special  distribution  to the limited  partners  of $262,500 in January  1997 of
cumulative excess operating reserves. The funds remaining at September 30, 1997,
after payment of  distributions  for the quarter ended  September 30, 1997,  and
other  liabilities,  will be used to meet the Partnership's  working capital and
other needs.

         Total liabilities of the Partnership,  including distributions payable,
decreased to $981,249 at September  30, 1997,  from  $1,204,213  at December 31,
1996,  primarily  as  the  result  of  the  Partnership's   accruing  a  special
distribution  payable to the limited  partners of $262,500 at December 31, 1996,
as described above,  which was paid in January 1997. The decrease in liabilities
was  partially  offset by an increase  in rents paid in advance  during the nine
months  ended  September  30,  1997.  The  general  partners  believe  that  the
Partnership  has  sufficient  cash on hand to meet its current  working  capital
needs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources - Continued

         Based on cash from operations,  the Partnership declared  distributions
to the limited  partners of $2,362,502  and $2,362,500 for the nine months ended
September  30,  1997 and  1996,  respectively  ($787,501  and  $787,500  for the
quarters  ended  September  30, 1997 and 1996,  respectively).  This  represents
distributions  for each  applicable  nine months of $0.068 per unit  ($0.023 per
unit for each applicable  quarter).  No  distributions  were made to the general
partners for the quarters and nine months ended  September 30, 1997 and 1996. No
amounts  distributed or to be  distributed to the limited  partners for the nine
months  ended  September  30,  1997 and 1996,  are  required  to be or have been
treated by the  Partnership  as a return of capital for purposes of  calculating
the  limited  partners'  return on their  adjusted  capital  contributions.  The
Partnership  intends to continue to make  distributions  of cash  available  for
distribution to the limited partners on a quarterly basis.

         The Partnership's  investment strategy of acquiring Properties for cash
and  leasing  them under  triple-net  leases to  operators  who  generally  meet
specified financial  standards  minimizes the Partnership's  operating expenses.
The general partners believe that the leases will continue to generate cash flow
in excess of operating expenses.

         The general  partners have the right,  but not the obligation,  to make
additional capital  contributions if they deem it appropriate in connection with
the operations of the Partnership.

Results of Operations

         During the nine months ended  September 30, 1996, the  Partnership  and
its  consolidated  joint  venture,  Woodway Joint  Venture,  owned and leased 29
wholly owned Properties (including one Property in Orlando,  Florida,  which was
sold in October 1996) and during the nine months ended  September 30, 1997,  the
Partnership and its consolidated  joint venture owned and leased 28 wholly owned
Properties  to operators of fast-food and  family-style  restaurant  chains.  In
connection therewith,  during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,
the  Partnership  and Woodway Joint Venture earned  $2,265,000  and  $2,406,291,
respectively,  in rental  income from  operating  leases and earned  income from
direct  financing  leases,  $755,070 and $791,730 of which was earned during the
quarters ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The decrease in rental
and earned income  during the quarter and nine months ended  September 30, 1997,
as  compared  to the  quarter  and nine months  ended  September  30,  1996,  is
primarily  attributable  to a decrease of  approximately  $28,500 and  $115,100,
respectively,  as a result of the sale of the Property in Orlando,  Florida,  in
October 1996. However, as a result of the Partnership  accepting a mortgage note
for this property,  interest income increased during the quarter and nine months
ended September 30, 1997, as discussed below.

Results of Operations - Continued

         For the nine months ended  September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Partnership
also earned  $34,487 and $12,111,  respectively,  in contingent  rental  income,
$2,547 and $4,441 of which was earned  during the quarters  ended  September 30,
1997 and 1996, respectively. The increase in contingent rental income during the
nine months  ended  September  30,  1997,  as compared to the nine months  ended
September 30, 1996, is primarily  attributable to (i) the Partnership  adjusting
estimated  contingent  rental  amounts  accrued at December 31, 1996,  to actual
amounts as of the nine months ended September 30, 1997, and (ii) increased gross
sales of certain  restaurant  Properties  requiring  the  payment of  contingent
rental income.

         Interest and other income were $181,801 and $75,478 for the nine months
ended  September 30, 1997 and 1996,  respectively,  $60,005 and $26,288 of which
was earned during the quarters ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,  respectively.
The  increase in interest  and other  income  during the quarter and nine months
ended  September  30,  1997,  as compared  to the quarter and nine months  ended
September  30, 1996,  is primarily  attributable  to the interest  earned on the
mortgage note  receivable  accepted in connection  with the sale of the Property
located in Orlando, Florida, in October 1996.

         For the nine months ended  September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Partnership
owned and leased eight Properties indirectly through joint venture arrangements.
In  connection  therewith,  during the nine months ended  September 30, 1997 and
1996, the Partnership earned $214,372 and $192,885,  respectively,  attributable
to net income earned by these unconsolidated joint ventures, $74,581 and $69,183
of which was earned  during the  quarters  ended  September  30,  1997 and 1996,
respectively.  The increase in net income earned by joint  ventures is primarily
due to the fact that the Partnership invested in Middleburg Joint Venture in May
1996.

         Operating expenses,  including  depreciation and amortization  expense,
were  $280,748 and $302,580  for the nine months  ended  September  30, 1997 and
1996, respectively,  of which $90,683 and $97,145 were incurred for the quarters
ended  September  30, 1997 and 1996,  respectively.  The  decrease in  operating
expenses  during the  quarter and nine  months  ended  September  30,  1997,  as
compared to the quarter and nine months ended  September  30, 1996, is primarily
attributable to a decrease in accounting and administrative  expenses associated
with operating the Partnership and its Properties.  In addition, the decrease in
operating  expenses  for the nine months ended  September  30, 1997 was due to a
decrease in professional  services as a result of the Partnership  incurring the
cost of the 1996 appraisal  updates  obtained to prepare an annual  statement of
unit valuation to qualified plans in accordance  with the partnership  agreement
during the quarter ended December 31, 1996. The Partnership incurred the cost of
the 1995 appraisal updates during the nine months ended September 30, 1996.

Results of Operations - Continued

         During the  quarter and nine  months  ended  September  30,  1996,  the
Partnership  recorded a provision for loss on land and building in the amount of
$99,031 for financial reporting  purposes,  relating to the Property in Orlando,
Florida.  This provision  represented the difference  between (i) the Property's
carrying  value  plus the  additional  rental  income  (accrued  rental  income)
recognized  since  inception  of the lease  relating to the  straight-lining  of
future  scheduled rent increases for this Property in accordance  with generally
accepted accounting principles and (ii) the net realizable value of the Property
based on the sales  proceeds of $1,375,000  accepted in the form of a promissory
note from the sale of this Property in October 1996. The  Partnership  wrote-off
the  non-recoverable  portion of the  accrued  rental  income as a result of the
anticipated  October 1996 sale,  resulting in the provision for loss on land and
building  during the nine months ended  September 30, 1996. Due to the fact that
the  straight-lining  of future  scheduled  rent  increases over the term of the
lease is a non-cash accounting  adjustment,  the write-off of these amounts is a
loss for financial statement purposes only.
