CASE CREDIT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1)--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying financial statements reflect the consolidated results of
Case Credit Corporation and its subsidiaries ("Case Credit" or the "Company").
All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial
statements of Case Credit contain all adjustments which are of a normal
recurring nature necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June
30, 1997, and the results of operations, changes in shareholder's equity and
cash flows for the periods indicated. Interim financial results are not
necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire year.
Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior years'
financial statements to the 1997 presentation.
(2)--ASSET-BACKED SECURITIZATIONS
In the first six months of 1997, Case Credit issued $830 million of asset-
backed securities through limited-purpose business trusts organized by Case
Credit, of which $180 million was issued pursuant to a private Canadian
placement. As of June 30, 1997, Case Credit has sold $822 million of U.S. and
Canadian retail notes to the trusts in connection with these issuances. The
proceeds from the sale of the retail notes were used to repay outstanding debt
and to finance additional receivables. In the first six months of 1996,
limited-purpose business trusts organized by Case Credit issued and sold $771
million of asset-backed securities to outside investors, of which $146 million
was issued pursuant to a private Canadian placement.
(3)--SHORT-TERM DEBT AND LINES OF CREDIT
During the first quarter of 1997, Case Credit Ltd. (Canada), a wholly owned
subsidiary of Case Credit, established a C$500 million commercial paper
facility. Under the terms of the program, the principal amount of the
commercial paper outstanding, combined with the amounts outstanding on the
C$500 million revolving credit facility, cannot exceed a total of C$500
million. Case Credit has approximately C$317 million of commercial paper
outstanding under this facility as of June 30, 1997.
(4)--INCOME TAXES
On a consolidated basis, the Company's 1997 year-to-date effective tax rate
of 32% was lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 35% primarily due to
reductions in the tax valuation reserves in certain foreign jurisdictions
offset by state income taxes and foreign income taxed at different rates. The
Company's 1996 year-to-date effective tax rate of 42% was higher than the U.S.
statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes and foreign income taxed at
different rates, offset by reductions in the tax valuation reserves in certain
foreign jurisdictions.
(5)--FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Derivatives
The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its interest
rate exposures. Case Credit does not hold or issue financial instruments for
trading purposes. The notional amounts of these contracts do not represent
amounts exchanged by the parties and, thus, are not a measure of the Company's
risk. The net amounts exchanged are calculated on the basis of the notional
amounts and other terms of the contracts, such as interest rates, and only
represent a small portion of the notional amounts. The credit and market risk
under these agreements is minimized through diversification among
counterparties with high credit ratings.
6
<PAGE>
CASE CREDIT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONCLUDED)
Depending on the item being hedged, gains and losses on derivative financial
instruments are either recognized in the results of operations as they accrue
or are deferred until the hedged transaction occurs. Derivatives used as
hedges are effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being
hedged and are designated as a hedge at the inception of the derivative
contract. Accordingly, changes in the market value of the derivative are
highly correlated with changes in the market value of the underlying hedged
item at the inception of the hedge and over the life of the hedge contract.
Interest Rate Swaps
Case Credit enters into interest rate swaps to stabilize funding costs by
minimizing the effect of potential increases in floating-rate debt in a rising
interest rate environment. Under these agreements, the Company contracts with
a counterparty to exchange the difference between a fixed rate and a floating
rate applied to the notional amount of the swap. Swap contracts are
principally between one and four years in duration. The differential to be
paid or received on interest rate swap agreements is accrued as interest rates
change and is recognized in net income as an adjustment to interest expense.
Gains and losses resulting from terminated interest rate swap agreements are
deferred and recognized in net income over the shorter term of the remaining
contractual life of the swap agreement or the remaining term of the debt
underlying the swap agreement. If swap agreements are terminated due to the
underlying debt being extinguished, any resulting gain or loss is recognized
in net income as an adjustment to interest expense at the time of the
termination.
The weighted-average pay and receive rates for the swaps outstanding at June
30, 1997, were 6.32% and 5.40%, respectively. The weighted-average pay and
receive rates for the swaps outstanding at December 31, 1996, were 6.22% and
4.49%, respectively.
Back-to-Back Interest Rate Caps
The asset-backed commercial paper liquidity facility (the "Liquidity
Facility") requires a subsidiary of Case Credit to have interest rate cap
agreements in place. Due to the relatively high expense of obtaining such an
instrument, Case Credit sells an identical cap, concurrent with the cap
purchase, to the same counterparty. This effectively minimizes the overall
expense to Case Credit, meets the requirements of the Liquidity Facility and
eliminates any risk of financial loss on the purchased cap. The defined term
of the cap is approximately 48 months.
Premiums paid for interest rate cap agreements purchased and sold are
included in "Other Assets" and "Other Liabilities," respectively, in the
accompanying Balance Sheets, and are amortized to interest expense over the
terms of the agreements. Amounts receivable or payable under cap agreements
are recognized in net income as adjustments to interest expense over the term
of the related debt. If interest rate cap agreements are terminated due to the
underlying debt being extinguished, any resulting gain or loss is recognized
in net income as a component of "Net gain on retail notes sold" at the time of
the termination.
At June 30, 1997, Case Credit had a back-to-back cap at a rate of 7.00%, at
a notional amount of approximately $37 million. At December 31, 1996, Case
Credit had a back-to-back cap at a rate of 7.00%, at a notional amount of
approximately $98 million.

CASE CREDIT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Six Months Ended June 30, 1997, vs. Six Months Ended June 30, 1996
NET INCOME
Net income for the first six months of 1997 was $39 million as compared to
$45 million for the first six months of 1996. The $6 million decrease in year-
over-year net income primarily reflects lower net financing margins in a
rising interest rate environment and reduced income from asset-backed
securitizations. These decreases were partially offset by higher earnings as a
result of increased levels of on-balance-sheet receivables.
REVENUES
Case Credit reported total revenues of $126 million for the first six months
of 1997 as compared to revenues of $125 million for the first six months of
1996. Finance income earned on retail notes and leases increased to $36
million in the first six months of 1997 as compared to $26 million for the
same period in 1996, primarily due to increased levels of on-balance-sheet
receivables. In addition, operating lease and rental equipment income
increased $8 million and $10 million, respectively, in the first six months of
1997, reflecting the growth in Case Credit's operating lease and rental
equipment portfolios. These revenue increases were offset by decreases in net
gains on retail notes sold due to lower interest rate margins, as well as
lower securitization and servicing fee income.
EXPENSES
Interest expense for the first six months of 1997 was $44 million, up $13
million from the $31 million reported in the first six months of 1996. The
increase in interest expense resulted from higher average debt levels during
the first six months of 1997 as compared to the first six months of 1996,
primarily due to the growth in Case Credit's on-balance-sheet receivables and
increased equipment on operating leases.
Operating expenses increased $8 million to a total of $25 million in the
first six months of 1997 as compared to the first six months of 1996. This
increase primarily resulted from $6 million of additional depreciation expense
for equipment on operating leases relating to Case Credit's larger operating
lease portfolio.
SERVICED PORTFOLIO
During the first six months of 1997, Case Credit's serviced portfolio of
receivables increased 20% over the comparable period last year to a record
$4.8 billion. Gross receivables acquired in the first six months of 1997 were
$1.5 billion, an increase of 29% versus the same period in 1996. During the
first six months of 1997, limited-purpose business trusts organized by Case
Credit issued $830 million of asset-backed securities to outside investors, of
which $180 million was issued pursuant to a private Canadian placement. Case
Credit sold $822 million of U.S. and Canadian retail notes to the trusts in
connection with these issuances. In the first six months of 1996, Case Credit
issued and sold $771 million of asset-backed securities to outside investors.
OTHER MATTERS
During the first six months of 1997, Case Credit received $20 million of
additional capitalization from Case Corporation.
