Item 1. Financial Statements
The balance sheet of Captec Franchise Capital Partners L.P. III (the
"Partnership") as of June 30, 1997 and the statements of operations and cash
flows for the periods ending June 30, 1997 and 1996 are unaudited and have not
been examined by independent public accountants. In the opinion of the
Management, these unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments
necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations
and cash flows of the Partnership for the periods then ended. All such
adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in the
Partnership's report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31,
1996.
When used in this discussion, the words, "intends", "anticipates",
"expects", and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties
which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected.
Such risks and uncertainties include the following: (I) a tenant may default
in making rent payments, (ii) a fire or other casualty may interrupt the cash
flow stream from a property, (iii) the properties may not be able to be leased
at the assumed rental rates, (iv) unexpected expenses may be incurred in the
ownership of the properties, and (v) properties may not be able to be sold at
the presently anticipated prices and times.
As a result of these and other factors, the Partnership may experience
material fluctuations in future operating results on a quarterly or annual
basis, which could materially and adversely affect its business, financial
condition and operating results. These forward-looking statements speak only
as of the date hereof. The Partnership undertakes no obligation to publicly
release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements which
may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to
reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

CAPTEC FRANCHISE CAPITAL PARTNERS L.P. III
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. THE PARTNERSHIP AND ITS SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES:
Captec Franchise Capital Partners L.P. III (the "Partnership"), a Delaware
limited partnership, was formed on February 18, 1994 for the purpose of
acquiring income-producing commercial real properties and equipment leased
on a "triple net" basis, primarily to operators of national and regional
franchised businesses. The general partners of the Partnership are Captec
Franchise Capital Corporation III (the "Corporation"), a wholly owned
subsidiary of Captec Financial Group, Inc. ("Captec"), and Patrick L.
Beach, an individual, hereinafter collectively referred to as the Sponsor.
Patrick L. Beach is also the Chairman of the Board of Directors, President
and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation and Captec. The general
partners have each contributed $100 in cash to the Partnership as a capital
contribution.
The Partnership commenced a public offering of limited partnership
interests ("Units") on August 12, 1994. A minimum of 1,150 Units and a
maximum of 20,000 Units, priced at $1,000 per Unit, were offered on a "best
efforts, part or none" basis. The Partnership broke impound on January 24,
1995, at which time funds totaling $1,155,255 were released from escrow and
the Partnership immediately commenced operations. At June 30, 1997, the
Partnership had accepted subscriptions for the entire 20,000 Units, and
funds totaling $20,000,000.
Allocation of profits, losses and cash distributions from operations and
cash distributions from sale or refinancing are made pursuant to the terms
of the Partnership Agreement. Profits and losses from operations are
allocated among the limited partners based upon the number of Units owned.
In no event will the Sponsor be allocated less than one percent of profits
and losses in any year.
Following is a summary of the Partnership's significant accounting
policies:
a. RENTAL INCOME FROM OPERATING LEASES: The Partnership's
operating leases have scheduled rent increases which occur at various
dates throughout the lease terms. The Partnership recognizes the
total rent, as stipulated by the lease agreement, as income on a
straight-line basis over the term of each lease. To the extent rental
income on the straight-line basis exceeds rents billable per the lease
agreement, an amount is recorded as unbilled rent.
b. LAND AND BUILDING ON OPERATING LEASES: Land and buildings
subject to operating leases are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation. Buildings are depreciated on the straight-line method
over their estimated useful lives (40 years).

<PAGE> 9
CAPTEC FRANCHISE CAPITAL PARTNERS L.P. III
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. THE PARTNERSHIP AND ITS SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES, CONTINUED:
c. NET INVESTMENT IN FINANCING LEASES: Leases classified as
financing leases are stated as the sum of the minimum lease payments
plus the unguaranteed residual value accruing to the benefit of the
lessor, less unearned income. Unearned income is amortized to income
over the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of
return on the net investment in the lease.
d. NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTEREST: Net income per
limited partnership interest is calculated using the weighted average
number of limited partnership units outstanding during the period and
the limited partners' allocable share of the net income.
e. INCOME TAXES: No provision for income taxes is included in the
accompanying financial statements, as the Partnership's results of
operations are passed through to the partners for inclusion in their
respective income tax returns.
f. ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. DISTRIBUTIONS:
Cash flows of the Partnership are allocated ninety-nine percent (99%) to
the limited partners and one percent (1%) to the Sponsor, except that the
Sponsor's share is subordinated to a ten percent (10%) preferred return to
the limited partners. Net sale or refinancing proceeds of the Partnership
will be allocated ninety percent (90%) to the limited partners and ten
percent (10%) to the Sponsor, except that the Sponsor's share will be
subordinated to a eleven percent (11%) preferred return plus return of the
original contributions to the limited partners.
The Partnership distributed approximately $542,000 during the three month
period ended June 30, 1997, representing quarterly distributions of cash
flow from operations for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 and elective
monthly distributions for the current quarter.

3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND AGREEMENTS:
Organization and offering expenses, excluding selling commissions, were
initially paid by the General Partners and/or their Affiliates and were
reimbursed by the Partnership in an amount equal to up to three percent
(3%) of the gross proceeds of the offering (less any amounts paid directly
by the Partnership). In addition, the Sponsors and/or their affiliates
were paid a non-accountable expense allowance by the Partnership in an
amount equal to two percent (2%) of the gross proceeds of the offering.
There were no organizational and offering costs paid during the three month
period ended June 30, 1997.
The Partnership also paid to Participating Dealers, including affiliates of
the general partners, selling commissions in an amount equal to eight
percent (8%) of the purchase price of all Units placed by them directly.
There were no commissions paid or incurred during the three month period
ended June 30, 1997. The Sponsor had also guaranteed payment of
organization and offering expenses which exceed 13%, including selling
commissions, of the gross proceeds of the offering.
An acquisition fee is charged, not to exceed the lesser of: (i) four
percent (4%) of gross proceeds plus an additional .0624% for each 1% of
indebtedness incurred in acquiring properties and/or equipment but in no
event will acquisition fees exceed five percent (5%) of the aggregate
purchase prices of properties and equipment; or (ii) compensation
customarily charged in arm's length transactions by others rendering
similar services. Acquisition fees paid by the Partnership during the
three month period ended June 30, 1997 were $7,768.
The Partnership has entered into an asset management agreement with the
Sponsor and its affiliates, whereby the Sponsor provides various property
and equipment management services for the Partnership.
A subordinated asset management fee is charged, in an amount equal to one
percent (1%) of the gross rental revenues derived from the properties and
equipment. Payment of the asset management fee is subordinated to receipt
by the limited partners of annual distributions equal to a cumulative,
noncompounded return of ten percent (10%) per annum on their adjusted
invested capital. There were $5,623 of subordinated asset management fees
paid to the Sponsor during the three month period ended June 30, 1997.

An equipment liquidation fee limited to the lesser of three percent (3%) of
the sales price or customary fees for similar services will be paid in
conjunction with asset liquidation services. There were no equipment
liquidations during the six month period ended June 30, 1997.
The Partnership Agreement provides for the Sponsor to receive a real estate
liquidation fee limited to the lesser of three percent (3%) of the gross
sales price or fifty percent (50%) of the customary real estate commissions
in the event of a real estate liquidation. This fee is payable only after
the limited partners have received distributions equal to a cumulative,
noncompounded return of eleven percent (11%) per annum on their adjusted
invested capital plus distributions of sale or refinancing proceeds equal
to 100% of their original contributions. There were no real estate
liquidations during the six month period ended June 30, 1997.
The Partnership has agreed to indemnify the Sponsor and their affiliates
against certain costs paid in settlement of claims which might be sustained
by them in connection with the Partnership. Such indemnification is
limited to the assets of the Partnership and not the limited partners.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL COMMITMENTS:
The Partnership commenced the Offering of up to 20,000 limited partnership
units ("Units") registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended by
means of a Registration Statement, filed on form SB-2 which was declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 12, 1994.
The Partnership accepted subscriptions for the Minimum Number of Units on
January 24, 1995 and immediately commenced operations. The Offering reached
final funding as of August 12, 1996, having accepted subscriptions for the
entire 20,000 Units and funds totaling $20,000,000.
At June 30, 1997, the Partnership had invested in eleven net leased real
estate properties and ten equipment packages in amounts totaling approximately
$17,946,535, including capitalized acquisition fees.
On April 2, 1997, the Partnership provided funding in the amount of
$194,197 for the re-imaging of the Kettle Restaurant located in Virginia Beach,
Virginia to a Denny's Restaurant (the "Virginia Beach Property"). The
Partnership provided funding for the reimaging and acquisition fees by
borrowing the funds from Captec Net Lease Realty, a Michigan corporation and an
affiliate of the Managing General Partner ("CNLR"). The Virginia Beach
Property is currently being operated as a Denny's Restaurant. The Partnership
entered into the First Amendment to the Lease Agreement with DenAmerica Corp.,
a Delaware corporation, ("DenAmerica") whereby DenAmerica shall pay minimum
annual rent in an amount equal to $106,244, payable in equal monthly
installments of $8,854. The option price that DenAmerica shall pay for the
Virginia Beach Property will be equal to the greater of (a) the then fair
market value of the Virginia Beach Property as determined as described in the
Lease Agreement dated August 25, 1995 (the "Lease") or (b) $1,192,534. In all
other respects the Lease shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
On May 21, 1997, the Partnership made the final disbursement to Corral
South Store 3, Inc., a Florida corporation ("Corral South 3") under the
agreement dated August 6, 1997, for the construction of a Golden Corral
restaurant (the "Golden Corral Property"). The total purchase price of the
Golden Corral Property was $1,600,000. Of the $1,600,000 total purchase price,
$1,262,000 was made in cash from offering proceeds, $113,000 of borrowed
proceeds from Captec Financial Group, Inc., Michigan corporation ("CFG") and an
affiliate of the Managing General Partner, and $225,000 of borrowed proceeds
from CNLR.
On July 25, 1997, the Partnership sold an undivided 34.375% interest in
the Golden Corral Property, as a tenant in common to Captec Franchise Capital
Partners L.P. IV, a Delaware limited partnership and an affiliate of the
Managing General Partner for $550,000. The proceeds of the sale were used to
retire the debt owed to CFG and CNLR. Interest paid on the loans at June 30,
1997 was $8,345.
11
<PAGE> 14
The Partnership had cash totaling $252,853 as of June 30, 1997, none of
which is available for investment. The Partnership presently does not have any
existing investment commitments.
During 1997, the Partnership expects to obtain leverage of up to 30% of
the sum of gross proceeds and the aggregate amount of Partnership indebtedness
secured by Partnership assets (approximately 35% of the aggregate purchase
prices of the Partnership's assets). Such leverage, when incurred, will
provide additional funds to be used by the Partnership to purchase additional
income-producing commercial Properties and Equipment which will be leased on a
"triple net" basis primarily to operators of nationally franchised fast-food,
family style and dinner house restaurants as well as other franchised
service-type businesses. The Property leases are expected to provide for a
base minimum annual rent, with provisions for fixed increases on specific dates
or indexation of rent to indices such as the Consumer Price Index and/or
percentage rents. Equipment will be leased only pursuant to Full Payout
Leases. Presently, the Partnership does not have a financing commitment for
this leverage.
During the three month period ending June 30, 1997, the Partnership did
not acquire any additional properties. The number of Properties and/or the
amount of Equipment to be acquired will depend upon the additional debt.
Once substantially all of the Partnership's funds have been applied as
intended, the Partnership expects to require limited amounts of liquid assets
since the form of lease which it intends to use for its Properties and
Equipment will require lessees to pay all taxes and assessments, maintenance
and repairs and insurance premiums, including casualty insurance. The general
partners expect that the cash flow to be generated by the Partnership's
Properties and Equipment will be adequate to pay operating expenses and provide
distributions to Limited Partners.
The General Partners are not aware of any known trends or uncertainties,
other than national economic conditions, which reasonably may be expected to
have a material impact, favorable or unfavorable, on liquidity and capital
resources of the Partnership other than those referred to herein and in the
Partnership's Prospectus.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
For the six month period ended June 30, 1997 the Partnership earned
revenues totaling approximately $1,053,000, compared to approximately $551,000
for the corresponding period of the preceding year. The increase in
year-to-date revenues over the prior year's period (91%) was due to the effect
of the Partnership's additional investment in income producing triple net
leased real estate properties and full payout equipment leases.
For the six month period ended June 30, 1997, the Partnership incurred
expenses totaling approximately $170,000, compared to approximately $117,000
for the corresponding period of the preceding year. The increase in
year-to-date expenses over the prior year's period (45%) was due to the same
effects which produced the increase in revenues. This growth caused
corresponding increases in depreciation expense (due to the growth in
depreciable assets) and general and administrative expenses.
12
<PAGE> 15
For the six month period ended June 30, 1997, the Partnership earned net
income of approximately $883,000, compared to approximately $434,000 for the
corresponding period of the previous year. The increase in year-to-date net
income over the prior year's period (103%) was primarily due to the increase in
revenues discussed above.
Based upon the results of operations for the three month period ended June
30, 1997, the Partnership distributed to its limited partners a total of
$550,000 representing cash flow from operations for that period. These amounts
were distributed as follows: $34,609 paid in April 1997 and $35,763 paid in May
1997 to investors that have elected to receive monthly distributions and
$479,628 paid in July 1 1997 to all investors. On a comparative basis, the
Partnership distributed to its limited partners a total of $370,000 for the
corresponding three month period of the preceding year. The increase in
distributions over the prior year's period (48%) was due to the increase in net
income discussed above and the reduction in net investment in financing leases
