                    FRANCHISE FINANCE CORPORATION OF AMERICA

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(1) STOCK OPTION PLAN:
    -----------------

At the May 10, 1995 Annual  Shareholders  Meeting,  the shareholders  approved a
stock  option  and  incentive  plan  which  permits  the  issuance  of  options,
restricted  stock and other  stock-based  awards to key employees,  the Board of
Directors and  independent  contractors  of FFCA.  The plan  reserves  3,018,804
shares of common  stock for grant and  provides  that the term of each  award be
determined by the compensation committee of the Board of Directors.

Under the terms of the  plan,  options  granted  may be either  nonqualified  or
incentive stock options and the exercise price, determined by the committee, may
not be less than the fair market  value of a share of common  stock on the grant
date. In May 1995,  FFCA granted  1,227,989 stock options at prices ranging from
$19.50 to $19.75 per share,  none of which have been  exercised.  Other than the
restrictions which limit the sale and transfer of these shares, participants are
entitled  to all the rights of a  shareholder.  Options  become  exercisable  as
determined at the date of grant by the  committee.  At September  30, 1995,  the
options granted to the  non-employee  Directors,  totaling  20,489 shares,  were
exercisable.  The remaining  options vest over a three-year period from the date
of grant.  Options  expire ten years  after the date of grant  unless an earlier
expiration date is set at the time of grant.


(2) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
    ---------------------

FFCA has entered  into an  interest  rate  agreement  which  hedges  exposure to
fluctuations  in interest rates on  anticipated  debt with a face amount of $150
million.  The gain or loss  realized  upon  settlement  of this  agreement,  and
related  costs,  will be deferred  and  amortized  to interest  expense over the
period of the underlying  debt. Costs deferred at September 30, 1995 amounted to
$540,000, which are included in Other Assets in the accompanying balance sheet.

(3) NET INCOME PER SHARE:
    --------------------

Net income per share is calculated  using the weighted  average number of common
shares  outstanding  during the period.  The exercise of the  outstanding  stock
options would not have a material dilutive effect on net income per share.



Part I -- Financial Information
- -------------------------------

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of
          ---------------------------------------
          Financial Condition and Results of Operations
          ---------------------------------------------

General
- -------

Franchise  Finance  Corporation  of America (FFCA) was organized in June 1993 to
facilitate the  consolidation by merger,  on June 1, 1994, of Franchise  Finance
Corporation of America I and eleven public real estate limited partnerships with
and into FFCA.  The merger was accounted for as a  reorganization  of affiliated
entities  under common  control in a manner  similar to a pooling of  interests.
Financial  information  for the nine months  ended  September  30, 1994 has been
restated on a combined basis to provide comparative information. FFCA invests in
chain restaurant real estate as a self-administered real estate investment trust
(REIT).  FFCA's common stock is listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange
under the symbol FFA.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

At September 30, 1995, FFCA owned or financed 1,408 chain restaurant  properties
in 46 states,  representing  an  investment  portfolio  of $748  million (net of
accumulated depreciation on restaurant properties),  as compared to $578 million
at December 31, 1994.  Rental and  participating  mortgage loan interest revenue
generated by this  portfolio of properties  has, and will continue to,  comprise
the  majority of the cash  generated  from  operations.  Cash  generated  by the
portfolio is held in temporary investment securities pending distribution to the
shareholders in the form of quarterly  dividends.  This cash also may be used on
an interim  basis to fund  portfolio  acquisitions.  Currently,  FFCA's  primary
source of funding for acquisitions is an acquisition loan facility which expires
in July 1996.  On November 3, 1995,  FFCA  amended its loan  facility  to, among
other things,  reduce the maximum amount available  thereunder from $400 million
to $300 million. FFCA expects its short-term liquidity needs for the acquisition
of  properties  to be met through  this loan  facility  and  similar  short-term
revolving loan facilities.  FFCA anticipates meeting its long-term capital needs
through the issuance of debt or additional equity securities of FFCA. FFCA filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement,  which was
declared  effective on October 18, 1995,  to offer from time to time,  in one or
more series, its debt securities, shares of its preferred stock or shares of its
common stock,  with an aggregate  public offering price of up to $500 million on
terms to be  determined  at the time of  offering.  Senior notes due in the year
2000 and  senior  notes due in the year  2005,  each in an  aggregate  principal
amount  of  $100  million  are   anticipated  to  be  issued  pursuant  to  such
registration statement.  The proceeds from the sale of the notes will be used to
reduce amounts  outstanding  under the loan facility.  The loan facility permits
FFCA to reborrow amounts repaid thereunder.

During the  quarter  ended  September  30,  1995,  FFCA  acquired or financed 80
restaurant  properties totaling  approximately $53 million.  Acquisitions during
the quarter represented primarily sale leaseback transactions with leading chain
restaurant  operators.  These  acquisitions  were  funded by $51 million of debt
drawn on the revolving  credit  facility and by cash generated from  operations.
Acquisitions   for  the  first  nine  months  of  1995  totaled  $196   million,
representing   246  restaurant   properties,   and  were  split  evenly  between
participating mortgage loans and lease transactions. FFCA sold 14 properties and
related  equipment  in the first  nine  months of 1995,  four of which were sold
during the quarter ended September 30, 1995. All but four of the properties sold
in 1995 were sold through the lessees' exercise of their purchase options on the
properties.  Proceeds  totaling  $8.4 million from these sales also were used to
partially fund the new acquisitions.

At September 30, 1995, FFCA had cash and cash equivalents  totaling $5.6 million
and  had  $165  million  available  on its  revolving  credit  facility.  FFCA's
anticipated property  acquisitions include commitments,  totaling  approximately
$200  million,  made to restaurant  operators to acquire or finance  (subject to
FFCA's  customary   underwriting   procedures)   approximately   200  restaurant
properties generally over the next twelve months. FFCA anticipates funding these
specific commitments,  and other acquisitions of restaurant properties,  through
amounts  available under its revolving  credit facility and through the issuance
of debt or  additional  equity  securities  of FFCA.  Interest  expense  for the
remainder  of 1995 will be  impacted by higher debt levels and by changes in the
monthly  interest rate caused by  fluctuations in the London  Interbank  Offered
Rate (LIBOR).

FFCA declared a dividend for the quarter  ended  September 30, 1995 of $0.45 per
share,  or $1.80 per share on an annualized  basis, to shareholders of record on
November 10, 1995,  payable on November 20, 1995.  Management  of FFCA  believes
that  cash  generated  from  operations  will be  sufficient  to meet  operating
requirements and provide the level of shareholder dividends required to maintain
its status as a REIT.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

FFCA recorded net income per share of $0.34 for the quarter ended  September 30,
1995 and $1.00 for the nine months ended  September  30, 1995 as compared to net
income  per share of $0.30 for the  quarter  ended  September  30,  1994 and net
income per share of $.32 for the nine months ended  September 30, 1994. The 1994
results  of  operations  were  impacted  by the REIT  transaction-related  costs
incurred  in the June 1,  1994  merger.  Income  before  the  effect of the REIT
transaction-related  costs was $.32 for the quarter ended September 30, 1994 and
$1.02 for the nine-months ended September 30, 1994.

Total  revenues for the quarter rose to $27.2 million from $22.8 million for the
comparable quarter of the prior year. This increase resulted from a net increase
in portfolio revenue (rental revenues and mortgage loan interest income) of $4.2
million  and an  increase  in gain on the sale of  property  of  $253,000.  This
increase was somewhat offset by a decrease in investment income of $155,000.

Portfolio acquisitions were the primary source of revenue increases, despite the
sale of 24 properties in the past twelve months. Since the formation of the REIT
on June 1, 1994, the  implementation  of an aggressive  acquisition plan yielded
$278 million in  portfolio  additions  through  September  30,  1995.  These new
properties  generated  approximately $6.6 million in revenue for the quarter and
$13.4  million in revenue for the nine months ended  September  30,  1995.  This
quarter's  portfolio  acquisitions,  totaling  approximately  $53  million,  are
represented  by $17 million in  participating  mortgage loans and $36 million in
property subject to operating leases. Since these acquisitions  occurred mid- to
late  quarter,  the weighted  average  balance of  acquisitions  for the quarter
amounted  to  approximately  $9.3  million;  therefore,  their  impact on rental
revenue and  mortgage  interest  income will not be fully  reflected  until next
quarter.

Rental  revenues  include both rental  payments  received  from lessees and rent
guaranty  insurance  payments.  Rental revenue collected under the rent guaranty
insurance policies for the third quarter of 1995 decreased to $812,000 from $1.5
million in the third quarter of 1994  primarily  due to expiring rent  insurance
policies.  Rent guaranty  insurance  policies  covering  FFCA's  properties will
continue to expire at various dates,  with the majority of the policies expiring
by 1998.

The restaurant  leases generally  provide that lessees make lease payments equal
to the  greater of a fixed base rate or a  percentage  of the gross sales of the
restaurants  (percentage rentals).  Percentage rentals approximated $858,000 for
the three months ended  September  30, 1995 and $3.0 million for the nine months
then ended, as compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30,
1994 and $3.1  million for the nine months  then  ended.  Due to the  contingent
nature of these  rentals,  the timing of revenue  recognition  may vary  between
quarters;  therefore, they are more meaningful when compared on an annual basis.
Percentage  rentals for 1994 are higher than comparable rentals for 1995 because
FFCA's increased  monitoring and collection  efforts during 1994 resulted in the
collection of percentage  rentals of over $200,000  which related to years prior
to 1994.

FFCA recorded a net gain of $637,000 on the sale of restaurant properties during
the  quarter,  as compared  to a net gain of $384,000 on the sale of  properties
during the quarter ended September 30, 1994. During the quarter, FFCA refinanced
nine properties for a single lessee by providing mortgage financing amounting to
$8.5  million for the lessee's  exercise  of its  purchase  option on the leased
property. In this transaction,  FFCA received approximately $580,000 in cash and
financed  the  balance  of the  sales  price  at a lower  rate,  but at a higher
investment amount than the original  investment,  resulting in cash flow to FFCA
that remains relatively unchanged.  Results of operations in future quarters may
be largely impacted by gains or losses on the sale of properties,  however, FFCA
anticipates  that the sale of properties,  if any, will occur primarily  through
the exercise of purchase options and does not expect losses on such sales.

The remaining  revenues in 1995 and 1994 are primarily  attributable to interest
earned  on   temporary   investments   and  fees  charged  to   affiliates   for
administrative  services performed.  The decrease in such revenues from 1994 was
due  primarily  to a  decrease  in the  average  balance of cash  available  for
investment.

Expenses for the quarter  totaled  $13.5 million as compared to $10.1 million in
the third  quarter of the prior year.  The major  component of this  increase is
interest expense,  which increased to $4.7 million from $954,000 due to the debt
incurred to acquire portfolio properties.  Partly offsetting this increase, is a
decrease in depreciation  and  amortization  expense of $421,000  related to the
expiration of prepaid rental insurance policies,  the sale of properties and the
sale of restaurant  equipment (the lease terms of which had expired) in the past
twelve months. In addition, a majority of the portfolio  acquisitions made since
September  30, 1994  represent  nondepreciable  assets such as land and mortgage
loans receivable. Operating, general and administrative expenses for the quarter
remained relatively unchanged from the comparable quarter in 1994.

In the opinion of management,  the FFCA financial  information  included in this
report reflects all adjustments necessary for fair presentation. All adjustments
are of a normal recurring nature.

Lessee Concentration
- --------------------

During the nine months  ended  September  30, 1995 one lessee,  Foodmaker,  Inc.
("Foodmaker"),  accounted for approximately  12.7% (14% in 1994) of total rental
and mortgage loan interest  revenues of FFCA.  The relative  decrease in revenue
from Foodmaker between 1994 and 1995 is due to the fact that FFCA's portfolio is
growing and  Foodmaker  is becoming a relatively  smaller  portion of the entire
portfolio. This decrease is expected to continue. The following table represents
selected  financial  data of  Foodmaker,  Inc. and  Subsidiaries  as reported by
Foodmaker.

In January 1994,  Foodmaker  contributed its Chi-Chi's Mexican  restaurant chain
(Chi-Chi's) to Family Restaurants, Inc. (FRI) in exchange for an approximate 39%
interest  in FRI and other  consideration  including  cash and debt  assumption.
Therefore,  the  consolidated  statements  of  operations  data for the  periods
reflected  above include Chi Chi's  results of  operations  for only 16 weeks in
1994.  Chi-Chi's  restaurant  sales were  $123.2,  its costs of sales were $32.7
million,  its restaurant operating costs were $80.7 million, and its general and
administrative expenses were $9.1 million in the first quarter of 1994.

Sales by  Foodmaker-operated  Jack In The Box  restaurants  for the  forty  week
period  increased by $55.4  million over 1994 sales.  The sales  improvement  is
primarily  due  to an  increase  in the  average  number  of  Foodmaker-operated
restaurants  to 832 in 1995  from  752 in 1994.  Distribution  sales of food and
supplies  reflect  an  increase  of  approximately  $11.9  million  due  to  the
recognition of $25.1 million in sales to Chi-Chi's in 1995  (distribution  sales
to Chi-Chi's in 1994,  while it was a Foodmaker  subsidiary,  were eliminated in
consolidation).  Distribution  sales for the 12-week  period  ended July 9, 1995
decreased  $4.3  million  principally  due to a  decline  in sales to  Chi-Chi's
restaurants.  Jack In The Box franchise  rents and  royalties  decreased by $1.0
million for the forty week period, reflecting a decline in the average number of
domestic franchisee-operated restaurants to 382 in 1995 from 416 in 1994.

Foodmaker  recorded  a loss in  1995  relating  to its  equity  in FRI of  $57.2
million,  most of  which  was  the  result  of the  complete  write-down  of its
investment  in FRI due to the write-off by FRI of the goodwill  attributable  to
Chi-Chi's.  FRI's  management  determined  that it  would be  unlikely  that the
company  would recover the goodwill of its Chi-Chi's  Mexican  restaurants  as a
result of negative  publicity  regarding the nutritional  value of Mexican food.
Subsequently, although Foodmaker continues to hold a 39% equity interest in FRI,
it will not reflect its share of FRI results of operations  until FRI is able to
generate a positive net equity.

Jack In The Box  costs of  sales  increased  by $7.3  million  due to  increased
Foodmaker-operated  restaurant  sales.  Costs of sales decreased as a percent of
sales in 1995 as  compared to 1994 due to the impact of lower  ingredient  costs
and the lower food cost of certain  promotions.  Restaurant  operating costs for
Jack In The Box  increased  by $23.2  million  primarily  due to the increase in
Foodmaker-operated  restaurants  and variable  costs  associated  with increased
sales.  Costs of  distribution  sales  increased as a percentage of distribution
sales  in 1995 as  compared  to 1994 due to  slightly  higher  distribution  and
delivery costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses for Jack In The Box
increased  $17.3 million  principally  due to an $8 million  settlement with its
stockholders.

Foodmaker  indicates that it expects that sufficient cash flow will be generated
from operations so that, combined with other financing alternatives available to
it, Foodmaker will be able to meet all of its debt service requirements, as well
as  its  capital  expenditures  and  working  capital   requirements,   for  the
foreseeable future.
