GATEWAY TAX CREDIT FUND III LTD.(A Florida Limited Partnership)NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2002

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION:   Gateway Tax Credit Fund III Ltd. ("Gateway"), a Florida Limited Partnership, was formed October 17, 1991 under the laws of Florida.  Gateway offered its limited partnership interests in Series.  The first Series for Gateway is Series 7.  Operations commenced on July 16, 1992 for Series 7, January 4, 1993 for Series 8, September 30, 1993 for Series 9, January 21, 1994 for Series 10 and April 29, 1994 for Series 11.  Each Series invests, as a limited partner, in other limited partnerships ("Project Partnerships"), each of which owns and operates apartment complexes eligible for Low-Income Housing Tax Credits ("Tax Credits"), provided for in Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.  Gateway will terminate on December 31, 2040 or sooner, in accordance with the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement.  As of December 31, 2002, Gateway had received capital contributions of $1,000 from the General Partners and $36,799,000 from the investor Limited Partners.
   Raymond James Partners, Inc. and Raymond James Tax Credit Funds, Inc., wholly-owned subsidiaries of Raymond James Financial, Inc., are the General Partner and Managing General Partner, respectively.  The Managing General Partner manages and controls the business of Gateway.
   Gateway received capital contributions of $10,395,000, $9,980,000, $6,254,000, $5,043,000 and $5,127,000 from the investor Limited Partners in Series 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11, respectively.  Each Series will be treated as though it were a separate partnership, investing in a separate and distinct pool of Project Partnerships.  Income or loss and all tax items from the Project Partnerships acquired by each Series will be specifically allocated among the limited partners of such Series.
   Operating profits and losses, cash distributions from operations and Tax Credits from each Series are generally allocated 99% to the Limited Partners in that Series and 1% to the General Partners.  Profit or loss and cash distributions from sales of property by each Series are allocated as formulated in the Limited Partnership Agreement.NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Basis of Accounting   Gateway utilizes an accrual basis of accounting whereby revenues are recognized as earned and expenses are recognized as obligations are incurred.
   Gateway accounts for its investments as the limited partner in Project Partnerships ("Investments in Project Partnerships") using the equity method of accounting, because management believes that Gateway does not have a majority control of the major operating and financial policies of the Project Partnerships in which it invests, and reports the equity in
losses of the Project Partnerships on a 3-month lag in the Statement of Operations. Under the equity method, the Investments in Project Partnerships initially include:
   1) Gateway's capital contribution,
   2) Acquisition fees paid to the General Partner for services rendered       in selecting properties for acquisition, and
   3) Acquisition expenses including legal fees, travel and other       miscellaneous costs relating to acquiring properties.
Quarterly the Investments in Project Partnerships are increased or decreased as follows:
   1) Increased for equity in income or decreased for equity in losses
      of the Project Partnerships,
   2) Decreased for cash distributions received from the Project       Partnerships, and
   3) Decreased for the amortization of the acquisition fees and
      expenses.
    Amortization is calculated on a straight line basis over 35 years, as this is the average estimated useful life of the underlying assets.  The  amortization is shown as amortization expense on the Statements of Operations.
    Pursuant to the limited partnership agreements for the Project Partnerships, cash losses generated by the Project Partnerships are allocated to the general partners of those partnerships.  In subsequent years, cash profits, if any, are first allocated to the general partners to the extent of the allocation of prior years' cash losses.
   Since Gateway invests as a limited partner, and therefore is not obligated to fund losses or make additional capital contributions, it does not recognize losses from individual Project Partnerships to the extent that these losses would reduce the investment in those Project Partnerships below zero.  The suspended losses will be used to offset future income from the individual Project Partnerships.
   Gateway reviews its investment in the Project Partnerships to determine if there has been any permanent impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment may not be recoverable.  If the sum of the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the investment, Gateway recognizes an impairment loss.  No impairment loss has been recognized in the accompanying financial statements.
   Gateway, as a limited partner in the Project Partnerships, is subject to risks inherent in the ownership of property which are beyond its control, such as fluctuations in occupancy rates and operating expenses, variations in rental schedules, proper maintenance and continued eligibility of tax credits.  If the cost of operating a property exceeds the rental income earned thereon, Gateway may deem it in its best interest to voluntarily provide funds in order to protect its investment.Cash and Cash Equivalents   It is Gateway's policy to include short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less in Cash and Cash Equivalents.  Short-term investments are comprised of money market mutual funds.Concentrations of Credit Risk   Financial instruments which potentially subject Gateway to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash investments in a money market mutual fund that is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Raymond James Financial, Inc.Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.  These estimates are based on management's knowledge and experience.  Accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.Investment in Securities   Effective April 1, 1994, Gateway adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities ("FAS 115").  Under FAS 115, Gateway is required to categorize its debt securities as held-to-maturity, available-for-sale or trading securities, dependent upon Gateway's intent in holding the securities.  Gateway's intent is to hold all of its debt securities (U. S. Treasury Security Strips) until maturity and to use these reserves to fund Gateway's ongoing operations.  Interest income is recognized ratably on the U.S. Treasury Strips using the effective yield to maturity.Receivable from Project Partnerships   Receivable from Project Partnerships represents amounts due from the Project Partnerships due to a change in the amount Gateway agreed to pay the Project Partnerships and is secured with cash in restricted escrow accounts.Offering and Commission Costs   Offering and commission costs are charged against Limited Partners' Equity upon admission of Limited Partners.Income Taxes   No provision for income taxes has been made in these financial statements, as income taxes are a liability of the partners rather than of Gateway.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 March 31, 2002.  In the opinion of management these financial statements include adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly summarize the Partnership's financial position and results of operations.  The results of operations for the periods may not be indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures:   Within 90 days prior to the filing of this report, under the supervision and with the participation of the Partnership's management, including the Partnership's chief executive and chief financial officers, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934) was performed.  Based on this evaluation, such officers have concluded that the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the date of that evaluation in alerting them in a timely manner to material information relating to the Partnership required to be included in this report and the Partnership's other reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  There were no significant changes in the Partnership's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Results of Operations, Liquidity and Capital Resources
   As disclosed on the statement of operations for each Series, except as described below, interest income is comparable for the nine and three months ended December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001.  The General and Administrative expenses - General Partner and General and Administrative expenses - Other for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2002 are comparable to December 31, 2001.  There were no unusual variations in the operating results between these two periods.
   The capital resources of each Series are used to pay General and Administrative operating costs including personnel, supplies, data processing, travel and legal and accounting associated with the administration and monitoring of Gateway and the Project Partnerships.  The capital resources are also used to pay the Asset Management Fee due the Managing General Partner, but only to the extent that Gateway's remaining resources are sufficient to fund Gateway's ongoing needs.  (Payment of any Asset Management Fee unpaid at the time Gateway sells its interests in the Project Partnerships is subordinated to the investors' return of their original capital contribution.)
   The sources of funds to pay the operating costs of each Series are short-term investments and interest earned thereon, the maturity of U.S. Treasury Security Strips ("Zero Coupon Treasuries") which were purchased with funds set aside for this purpose, and cash distributed to the Series from the operations of the Project Partnerships.
   Series 7 - Gateway closed this series on October 16, 1992 after receiving $10,395,000 from 635 Limited Partner investors.  Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships for the nine months ended December 31, 2002 decreased from $236,635 for the nine months ended December 31, 2001 to $117,987 as a result of an increase in rental revenue.  In general, it is common in the real estate industry to experience losses for financial and tax reporting purposes because of the non-cash expenses of depreciation and amortization. As a result, management expects that this Series, as well as those described below, will report its equity in Project Partnerships as a loss for tax and financial reporting purposes.  Overall, management believes the Project Partnerships are operating as expected and are generating tax credits which meet projections.
