                                     PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS.

ORGANIZATION

CMC Securities Corporation III (the "Company") was incorporated in Delaware on
May 6, 1992 as a special-purpose finance corporation and is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Capstead Mortgage Corporation ("CMC"). The Company was acquired
from CMF Mortgage Funding Corporation ("CMF"), a former subsidiary of CMC, on
July 29, 1994 pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (see below). CMC is a
publicly-owned real estate investment trust that, until late in 1995, operated
as a mortgage conduit, purchasing and securitizing single-family residential
mortgage loans. CMF originally acquired the Company from CMC on September 14,
1993 prior to commencement of operations. The Company is managed by CMC (the
"Manager").

Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 29, 1994 (the
"Agreement") between the Company and CMC Securities Corporation III-A ("CMCSC
III-A"), a newly formed and wholly-owned subsidiary of CMC with a corporate
charter and organizational structure that is identical in almost all respects to
that of the Company, the Company was merged with and into CMCSC III-A, whereby
the existence of the Company ceased and CMCSC III-A acquired all of the assets
and assumed all of the liabilities of the Company as the surviving entity. As a
part of the merger, CMCSC III-A changed its name to CMC Securities Corporation
III, and from July 29, 1994 forward has been referred to as the "Company."

The Company was formed primarily for the purpose of issuing and selling
collateralized mortgage obligations ("Bonds" or "CMOs"), collateralized by
mortgage-backed, pass-through certificates ("Certificates") that evidence an
interest in a pool of mortgage loans secured by single-family residences. The
Certificates pledged as collateral for the Bonds will either be contributed by
an affiliate of CMC or purchased from third parties and will either be Ginnie
Mae certificates, Fannie Mae certificates, Freddie Mac certificates or mortgage
pass-through ("Non-Agency") certificates. The Company's Certificate of
Incorporation requires that any Bonds issued be rated in one of the two highest
rating categories established by one or more nationally recognized statistical
rating agencies.

On December 15, 1993 the Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective
an amended registration statement filed by the Company covering the offering of
a maximum of $4 billion aggregate principal amount of CMOs. The Company
commenced operations with the December 22, 1993 issuance of its first series of
CMOs. As of December 31, 1999, the Company had issued nine series of CMOs with
an aggregate original principal balance of $3,287,569,000.

SPECIAL-PURPOSE FINANCE CORPORATION

The Company has not and will not engage in any business or investment activities
other than (i) issuing and selling CMOs, and receiving, owning, holding and
pledging as collateral therefore the related Certificates, (ii) investing cash
balances on an interim basis in high quality, short-term securities, and (iii)
engaging in other activities which are necessary or convenient to accomplish the
foregoing and are incidental thereto. Article III of the Company's Certificate
of Incorporation limits the Company's purposes to the above.



                                      -1-

COMPETITION

The Company's business is highly competitive. The Company competes with other
issuers of similar obligations, both with respect to the acquisition of
mortgage-related collateral securing the Bonds and placement of the CMOs. The
Company also competes with entities that issue and/or market numerous other
competitive financial products.

EMPLOYEES

At December 31, 1999 the Company had no employees. The Manager provides all
executive and administrative personnel required by the Company.

MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

Pursuant to a management agreement, the Manager advises the Company with respect
to its investments and administers the day-to-day operations of the Company. The
management agreement is nonassignable except by consent of the Company and the
Manager. The management agreement may be terminated without cause at any time
upon 90 days written notice. In addition, the Company has the right to terminate
the management agreement upon the happening of certain specified events,
including a breach by the Manager of any provision contained in the management
agreement which remains uncured for 30 days after notice of such breach and the
bankruptcy or insolvency of the Manager.

The Manager is at all times subject to the supervision of the Company's Board of
Directors and has only such functions and authority as the Company delegates to
it. The Manager is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Company and
performs such services and activities relating to the assets and operations of
the Company as may be appropriate. The Manager receives an annual basic
management fee of $10,000 per year for managing the assets pledged to secure
Bonds issued by the Company.

The Manager is required to pay employment expenses of its personnel (including
salaries, wages, payroll taxes, insurance, fidelity bonds, temporary help and
cost of employee benefit plans), and other office expenses, travel and other
expenses of directors, officers and employees of the Manager, accounting fees
and expenses and expenses incurred in supervising and monitoring the Company's
investments or relating to performance by the Manager of its functions. The
Company is required to pay all other expenses of operations (as defined in the
Management Agreement).

SERVICING AND ADMINISTRATION

The originators of mortgage loans backing the Non-Agency Certificates may elect,
if they meet the Company's criteria for servicers, either to service the loans
they sell or to sell the loans with no agreement with respect to servicing. The
Company enters into servicing agreements with each servicer.

As compensation for services rendered under the servicing agreements, the
servicers retain a servicing fee, payable monthly, generally 1/4 of 1% per annum
of the outstanding principal balance of each mortgage loan serviced as of the
last day of each month. During 1998 Capstead Inc. serviced a significant number
of the Company's mortgage loans. This servicing was sold by Capstead Inc. in
December 1998 to an unaffiliated third party. No servicing fees were retained by
Capstead Inc. during 1999; however, during 1998 and 1997,




                                      -2-
<PAGE>   5

Capstead Inc. retained fees from mortgage loan payments for servicing mortgage
loans of $2,955,000 and $3,425,000, respectively.

In addition, CMC is the administrator with respect to certain of the Company's
Non-Agency Certificates and CMOs. During 1999, 1998 and 1997, CMC retained fees
for administering Non-Agency Certificates and CMOs of $952,000, $1,044,000 and
$1,330,000, respectively.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

The Company's operations are conducted primarily in Dallas, Texas on properties
leased by CMC.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

As of the date hereof, there are no material legal proceedings outside the
normal course of business to which the Company was a party or of which any of
its property was the subject.
                                     PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
        MATTERS.

All of the Company's common stock is owned by CMC. Accordingly, there is no
public trading market for its common stock. To date, no dividends have been paid
on the Company's common stock.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS.

As of December 31, 1999, the Company had issued nine series of CMOs with an
aggregate original principal balance of $3,287,569,000. Two of these series of
CMOs were issued in 1998. The Company elected Real Estate Mortgage Investment
Conduit ("REMIC") status for tax purposes on these transactions. These issuances
have been accounted for as financings because an affiliate of the Company
retained an investment in the CMOs. As financings, CMO collateral and Bonds are
reflected on the balance sheet.

Since the Company did not retain any investment in the CMOs issued, no economic
benefit was or will be received and thus no net income or loss was or will be
recognized related to these CMOs other than amortization of unreimbursed bond
issuance costs. The Company's net losses are due to this amortization and
operational costs incurred (interest payable to CMC, management fees and
professional fees).

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

All ongoing cash CMO expenses are paid out of the excess cash flows on the CMOs
issued before the residual holders receive their residual interest. The Company
believes that the excess cash flows will be sufficient to pay ongoing cash CMO
expenses. Cash flow requirements due to ongoing operational costs are funded by
CMC.

IMPACT OF YEAR 2000

The Manager took the necessary steps to ensure that its software systems and
applications would not fail or create erroneous results by or at December 31,
1999 ("Year 2000 compliant"). The Manager also took steps to ensure that the
vendors it utilizes and institutions that it interfaces with had also taken the
necessary steps to become Year 2000 compliant. The Company experienced no
material instances of Year 2000 compliance failures.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As discussed above, the Company will receive no economic benefit from the CMOs
it has issued. Accordingly the Company has no exposure to market risks,
including interest rate risk.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



Stockholder and Board of Directors
CMC Securities Corporation III

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of CMC Securities Corporation III
(a wholly-owned subsidiary of Capstead Mortgage Corporation) as of December 31,
1999 and 1998, and the related statements of operations, stockholder's equity,
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
1999. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of CMC Securities Corporation III
at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

                         CMC SECURITIES CORPORATION III
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                DECEMBER 31, 1999



NOTE A -- BUSINESS

CMC Securities Corporation III (the "Company"), was incorporated in Delaware on
May 6, 1992 as special-purpose finance corporation primarily to issue bonds
collateralized by whole loans or mortgage-backed securities. The Company is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Capstead Mortgage Corporation ("CMC").

NOTE B -- ACCOUNTING POLICIES

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

SECURITIES HELD-TO-MATURITY

Management determines the appropriate classification of debt securities at the
time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date.
Debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity when the Company has the
positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. Held-to-maturity
securities are stated at amortized cost.

MORTGAGE SECURITIES COLLATERAL

Mortgage securities collateral consists of debt securities classified as
held-to-maturity. Amortized cost is adjusted for amortization of premiums and
discounts over the estimated life of the security using the interest method.
Such amortization is included in related interest income.

Mortgage securities collateral is subject to changes in value because of changes
in interest rates and rates of prepayment, as well as failure of the mortgagor
to perform under the mortgage agreement. The Company has limited its exposure to
these risks by issuing collateralized mortgage securities using a
senior/subordinate structure (see Note F).

ALLOWANCE FOR POSSIBLE LOSSES

The Company provides for possible losses on its investments in amounts which it
believes are adequate relative to the risk inherent in such investments.

COLLATERALIZED MORTGAGE SECURITIES

Collateralized mortgage securities are carried at their unpaid principal
balances, net of unamortized discount or premium. Any discount or premium is
recognized as an adjustment to interest expense by the interest method over the
life of the related securities.



                                      -10-
<PAGE>   13

INCOME TAXES

The Company was consolidated with CMF for income tax purposes through July 29,
1994 and had incurred losses through that date. Since July 29, 1994 the Company
has operated as a qualified real estate investment trust ("REIT") subsidiary of
CMC, which itself is a REIT, and is combined with CMC for federal income tax
purposes. REITs are not taxed at the corporate level provided that certain
requirements are met. Accordingly, no provision is required for federal income
taxes.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and highly liquid investment with
original maturities of three months or less.

NOTE C -- MORTGAGE SECURITIES COLLATERAL

Mortgage securities collateral consists of conventional single-family mortgage
loans which are pledged to secure repayment of the collateralized mortgage
securities. All principal and interest payments on the collateral are remitted
directly to a collection account maintained by a trustee. The trustee is
responsible for reinvesting those funds in short-term investments. All
collections on the collateral and the reinvestment income earned thereon is
available for payment of principal and interest on the collateralized mortgage
securities. The components of mortgage securities collateral are summarized as
follows (in thousands):

</TABLE>

The weighted average effective interest rate for mortgage securities collateral
was 6.92% and 7.13% during 1999 and 1998, respectively.

NOTE D -- COLLATERALIZED MORTGAGE SECURITIES

Each series of collateralized mortgage securities consists of various classes,
some of which may be deferred interest, interest-only and principal-only
securities. Interest is payable monthly at specified rates for all classes other
than the deferred interest securities. Generally, principal payments on each
series are made to each class in the order of their stated maturities so that no
payment of principal will be made on any class until all classes having an
earlier stated maturity have been paid in full. Generally, payments of principal
and interest on deferred interest securities will commence only upon payment in
full of some or all other classes. Prior to that time, interest accrues on the
deferred interest securities and the amount accrued is added to the unpaid
principal balance. Interest payments on interest-only bonds are based on a
specified notional amount used only for the calculation of interest and no
payments of principal are made. Principal-only bonds remit principal payments
and no interest is paid.

Number of series                               9                9
</TABLE>

The maturity of each series of securities is directly affected by the rate of
principal prepayments on the related mortgage securities collateral. Each series
of securities is also subject to redemption at the Company's option provided
that certain requirements specified in the related indenture have been met
(referred to as "clean-up calls"). As a result, the actual maturity of any
series of securities is likely to occur earlier than its stated maturity.

The weighted average effective interest rate for collateralized mortgage
securities was 6.92% and 7.14% during 1999 and 1998, respectively. Interest
payments on collateralized mortgage securities of $149,432,000, $133,115,000 and
$113,003,000 were made during 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

NOTE E -- DISCLOSURES REGARDING FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The estimated fair value of financial instruments have been determined by the
Company using available market information and appropriate valuation
methodologies; however, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market
data to develop these estimates. In addition, fair values fluctuate on a daily
basis. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily
indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market
exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation
methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, and the payable to Parent,
approximates fair value. The fair value of mortgage securities collateral was
estimated using either quoted market prices, when available, including quotes
made by CMC's lenders in connection with designating collateral for repurchase
arrangements. The fair value of collateralized mortgage securities is dependent
upon the characteristics of the mortgage securities collateral pledged to secure
the issuance. Therefore, fair value was based on the same method used for
determining fair value for the underlying mortgage securities collateral,
adjusted for credit enhancements.

</TABLE>

The fair values of mortgage securities collateral and cash equivalents reflect
an unrealized loss of $55.4 million at December 31, 1999, and unrealized gains
of $34.9 million at December 31, 1998.

NOTE F -- ALLOWANCE FOR POSSIBLE LOSSES

The Company has limited exposure to losses on mortgage securities collateral
because the Company's collateralized mortgage securities are issued in a
senior/subordinate structure where the investor in the subordinate classes
assumes the risks of losses due to typical mortgagor default and special
hazards. Special hazards are typically catastrophic events that are unable to be
predicted (e.g., earthquakes). Because of its limited exposure to losses, the
Company has determined that an allowance for possible losses is not warranted at
December 31, 1999.

Since approximately 23%, 12% and 10% of mortgage securities collateral are
secured by properties located in California, Virginia and Maryland,
respectively, the Company has a concentration of risk related to these markets.
However, the Company's exposure arising from this concentration is reduced by
the use of the senior/subordinate structure for securitizations.

NOTE G -- MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

The Company operates under a $10,000 per year management agreement with CMC (the
"Manager"). The agreement provides that the Manager will advise the Company with
respect to all facets of its business and administer the day-to-day operations
of the Company under the supervision of the Company's Board of Directors. The
Manager pays, among other things, salaries and benefits of its personnel,
accounting fees and expenses, and other office expenses incurred in supervising
and monitoring the Company's investments.

NOTE H -- TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

The Company had entered into servicing agreements with Capstead Inc., a
subsidiary of CMC, the provisions of which are typical of such agreements in the
mortgage servicing industry. Capstead Inc. sold this servicing to an
unaffiliated third party in December 1998. Under the servicing agreements,
Capstead Inc. retained from interest collected a servicing fee generally 1/4 of
1% per annum of the outstanding principal balance of mortgage loans serviced. No
servicing fees were retained by Capstead Inc. during 1999; however



                                      -13-
<PAGE>   16

servicing fees of $2,955,000 and $3,425,000 were retained during 1998 and 1997,
respectively.

CMC acts as administrator in relation to certain of the Company's Non-Agency
Certificates and CMOs in which it performs certain administrative functions. CMC
receives a fee of approximately 0.015% to 0.04% per annum of the outstanding
principal amount of the bonds, after deducting trustee fees, for its services.
Such fees totaled $952,000, $1,044,000 and $1,330,000 during 1999, 1998 and
1997, respectively.

The Company has a $1 million revolving subordinated promissory note with CMC
under which interest accrues on amounts payable based on the annual federal
short-term rate as published by the Internal Revenue Service. This note expires
January 1, 2001. Repayments may be made as funds are available.
