Part I         Financial Information

Item 1.        Financial Statements (see Note below)

Item 2.        Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
               Results of Operations (see Note below)

         Enron Capital Trust I (the "Trust") is a statutory business trust
created under the Delaware Business Trust Act, as amended (the "Trust Act"),
pursuant to an amended and restated declaration of trust (the "Declaration") and
the filing of a certificate of trust with the Secretary of State of the State of
Delaware. The Trust's sole assets are 8,247,440 8.30% Partnership Preferred
Securities ($25 liquidation amount per security) representing an 85% limited
partnership interest in Enron Preferred Funding, L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership (the "Partnership"). Ownership of the assets of the Trust is
evidenced by an aggregate of 8,000,000 8.30% Trust Preferred Securities (the
"Trust Preferred Securities"), which are listed and traded on the New York Stock
Exchange under the symbol "ENE PrT", and 247,440 Trust Common Securities (the
"Trust Common Securities," and, together with the Trust Preferred Securities,
the "Trust Securities"), all of which are owned by Enron Corp., a Delaware
corporation ("Enron"). The Trust makes distributions on the Trust Securities to
the extent it receives distributions from the Partnership on the Partnership
Preferred Securities. Payments on the Partnership Preferred Securities represent
the sole source of revenue for the Trust. Distributions on the Trust Securities
are guaranteed by Enron, but only to the extent that the Trust has available
funds to pay such distributions. The Trust was created for the sole purpose of
issuing the Trust Securities, investing the proceeds of such issuance in the
Partnership Preferred Securities and engaging in only those other activities
necessary or incidental thereto. The Trust Securities are subject to redemption
at any time on or after March 31, 2002 and earlier in the event of certain tax
law changes or other events.

         The general partner of the Partnership is Enron, which owns a 15%
general partnership interest in the Partnership. Since completion of the
offering of the Trust Preferred Securities on November 21, 1996, the assets of
the Partnership have been invested primarily in a $181,926,000 principal amount
7.75% Subordinated Debenture due 2016 of Enron (the "Enron Debenture") and
$29,108,000 principal amount 7.75% Debentures due 2016 of each of Enron Capital
& Trade Resources Corp. and Enron Pipeline Company (the "Subsidiary Debentures"
and, together with the Enron Debenture, the "Debentures"), each of which is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Enron. The obligations under the Subsidiary
Debentures are guaranteed by Enron. The respective issuers of the Debentures
have certain rights to elect to defer any payments of principal and interest on
the Debentures for up to five years at a time. In addition to the Debentures,
the Partnership owns an aggregate of approximately $2,685,000 in short-term,
investment grade debt securities (the "Eligible Debt Securities"). Under certain
circumstances, upon repayment of one or more of the Debentures, the assets of
the Partnership may be reinvested in one or more debt securities of Enron or its
subsidiaries. Payments of interest and principal on the Enron Debenture and the
Subsidiary Debentures (or the guarantees thereof) and the Eligible Debt
Securities are the sole source of revenue for the Partnership. The Partnership
pays distributions to the Trust as holder of the Partnership Preferred
Securities when as and if Enron, as the general partner, determines to do so,
although Enron has no obligation to do so.

      NOTE: Because the Trust and the Partnership are special purpose financing
entities with no separate business operations, the only assets of the Trust are
the Partnership Preferred Securities, and substantially all of the assets of the
Partnership consist of a debt security of Enron and debt securities of
subsidiaries of Enron that are guaranteed by Enron, the Trust does not believe
that financial statements for the Trust or the Partnership are meaningful.
Accordingly, financial statements and related financial information have not
been included in this Form 10-Q. For further information concerning Enron and
its subsidiaries, including financial statements and other financial
information, see the Enron Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1996, and Enron Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly
period ended March 31, 1997, as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, copies of which may be obtained from the Corporate Secretary of
Enron at the address listed on the cover of this Form 10-Q.
