CYPRESS EQUIPMENT FUND II, LTD.
(a Limited Partnership)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
September 30, 2002

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

   Cypress Equipment Fund II, Ltd., (the "Partnership"), a Florida limited partnership, was formed November 13, 1991, for the purpose of acquiring and leasing transportation, manufacturing, industrial and other capital equipment. The Partnership was funded with limited partner capital contributions and commenced operations on June 22, 1992. The Partnership will terminate on December 31, 2015, or sooner, in accordance with the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement. The Partnership has received Limited and General Partner capital contributions of $36,469,000 and $2,000, respectively.

   Cypress Equipment Management Corporation II, a California corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cypress Leasing Corporation, is the Managing General Partner; RJ Leasing - 2, Inc., a Florida corporation and a second tier subsidiary of Raymond James Financial, Inc., is the Administrative General Partner; and Raymond James Partners, Inc., a Florida corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Raymond James Financial, Inc., is the other General Partner.

   Cash distributions, subject to payment of the equipment management fees, and profits and losses of the Partnership shall be allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners. Once each Limited Partner has received cumulative cash distributions equal to his capital contributions, an incentive management fee equaling 4% of cash available for distributions will be paid to the General Partners. When each Limited Partner has received cumulative cash distributions equal to his capital contributions plus an amount equal to 8% of adjusted capital contributions per annum, an incentive management fee equaling 23% of cash available for distributions will be paid to the General Partners.

NOTE 2 - NOTES PAYABLE

   A significant amount of the rental equipment acquired by the Partnership is pledged at time of purchase as collateral for the notes payable.

   During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, there was no additional borrowing or payments.

NOTE 3 - COMPENSATION AND REIMBURSEMENTS TO GENERAL PARTNERS AND AFFILIATES

   The General Partners and their affiliates are entitled to the following types of compensation and reimbursements for costs and expenses incurred for the Partnership for the nine months ended September 30, 2002:

      Equipment Management Fees                 $  3,951
      General and Administrative Costs             7,152

NOTE 4 - BASIS OF PREPARATION

   The unaudited financial statements presented herein 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. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included with the Partnership's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. In the opinion of management, these financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to summarize fairly the Partnership's financial position and results of operations. The results of operations for the period may not be indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

NOTE 5 - CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

   It is the Partnership's policy to include short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less in Cash and Cash Equivalents. These short-term investments are comprised of money market mutual funds and a repurchase agreement. All of the Partnership's securities included in Cash and Cash Equivalents are considered held-to-maturity. The balance of $202,914 at September 30, 2002, represents cash of $15,413, and money market mutual funds of $187,501.

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

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002, Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2001.

   Rental income decreased to $60,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, from $84,007 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2001. This decrease was primarily due to equipment coming off lease or being sold in the intervening period. Interest income decreased to $1,778 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, as compared to $16,093 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. This decrease was primarily due to a decreased average balance of cash for investment and lower interest rates. During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, rental equipment with a book value of $119,719 was sold for $69,000 less expenses of sale of $1,270 resulting in a loss on sale of $51,989. During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership did not sell any equipment.

   The 4% incentive management fee was earned with the August 10, 1999 distribution as each Limited Partner has received cumulative cash distributions equal to his capital contribution. The 19% incentive management fee was earned in total with the April 2001 distribution as all Limited Partners began receiving cumulative cash distributions equal to payout plus an amount equal to 8% of adjusted capital contributions per annum cumulative from each limited partner's closing date. Incentive management fees decreased from $381,266 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 to $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, since no further distributions, on which incentive management fees are based, have been made.

   Interest expense was comparable the nine months ended September 30, 2002, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2001. Depreciation expense decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 versus 2001, due to a lower average depreciable basis of equipment. General and Administrative Expenses increased from $86,623 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 to $502,061 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. This was primarily due to increased legal costs associated with the deposit for the right to obtain title for a specialty tug and barge on December 31, 2002.

   The net effect of the above revenue and expense items resulted in a net loss of $618,697 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, compared to a net loss of $513,119 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, before Equity in Income of Partnership. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002 Equity in Income of Partnership was $11,022 compared to $124,557 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. This resulted in a net loss of $607,675 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, as compared to a net loss of $388,562 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001.

   
During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Partnership did not incur any additional borrowing and made $0 of principal payments on notes.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2002, Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2001.

   Rental income decreased to $16,500 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 as compared to rental income of $28,003 for the three months ended September 30, 2001. This decrease was primarily due to equipment coming off lease or being sold in the intervening period. Interest income decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2002, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2001. This was due to a lower level of cash available for investment and lower interest rates.

   Interest expense increased to $30,569 for the three months ended September 30, 2002, as compared to $28,621 for the three months ended September 30, 2001. This increase is due to an accrual for a balloon loan. Depreciation expense decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2002 versus 2001. This decrease was primarily due to equipment coming off lease or being sold in the intervening period.

   During the quarters ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Partnership did not sell any equipment. During the three months ended September 30, 2002, the Partnership sold its remaining interest in a partnership for $94,662.

   The net effect of the above revenue and expense items resulted in a net loss of $181,229 for the three months ended September 30, 2002, compared to a net loss of $58,799 for the three months ended September 30, 2001, before Equity in Income of Partnership. For the three months ended September 30, 2002 Equity in Income of Partnership was $11,022 compared to $124,557 for the three months ended September 30, 2001. This resulted in a net loss of $170,207 for the three months ended September 30, 2002, as compared to a net income of $65,758 for the three months ended September 30, 2001.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

   Short-term liquidity requirements consist of funds needed to make cash distributions to limited and general partners, administrative expenses and debt retirement. These short-term needs will be funded by Cash and Cash Equivalents at September 30, 2002, and sales proceeds.

   For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Partnership had a net loss of $170,207. After adjusting net income during this period for depreciation and amortization, and the changes in operating assets and liabilities, net cash used in operating activities was $463,442. Cash provided by investing activities consisted of $60,049 from distribution and sale proceeds of $94,622 from Investment in Partnerships, and $68,129 in proceeds from the Sale of Equipment. No cash was used in financing activities. In total, during the nine months ending September 30, 2002, Cash and Cash Equivalents decreased $240,999 from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities, resulting in an ending Cash and Cash Equivalent balance as of September 30, 2002, of $202,914.

   In the opinion of the General Partners, the Partnership will have, through Cash and Cash Equivalents at September 30, 2002, and equipment sales proceeds, sufficient funds to remain liquid for the foreseeable future. The General Partners are not aware of any trends that could adversely affect the Partnership's liquidity or the ability to meet near-term obligations.
