ITEM 2.  Acquisitions or Disposition of Assets

The   historical   consolidated   financial   statements  of  Neff  Corp.   (the
"Registrant")  include the results of operations and financial  position of Neff
Machinery Inc. ("Machinery") and Sullair Argentina Sociedad Anonima ("Sullair"),
two  subsidiaries of the  Registrant.  On December 17, 1999, the Registrant sold
all of the capital  stock of  Machinery  to a third party for $90.5  million (as
reported in the Registrant's current report on Form 8-K dated December 29, 1999,
as amended on  December  30, 1999 and March 2, 2000).  The  Registrant's  equity
interest in Sullair was also sold in the fourth  quarter of fiscal year 1999 (as
reported in the Registrant's current report on Form 8-K dated December 2, 1999).
The pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months
ended  September 30, 1999 was prepared  assuming that the sales of Machinery and
Sullair occurred as of January 1, 1999. The pro forma consolidated balance sheet
as of September  30, 1999 was prepared  assuming  that the sales  occurred as of
that date. The pro forma condensed  consolidated statement of operations for the
year ended  December 31, 1998 was prepared  assuming the sales of Machinery  and
Sullair occurred as of January 1, 1998. The value of net assets of Machinery and
Sullair at the  historical  sale dates differ from those used at  September  30,
1999 and December 31, 1998.  The  Registrant  will record a loss on the sales of
Machinery  and Sullair in its fourth  quarter of fiscal year 1999.  Such loss is
not expected to differ materially from the after-tax loss of $0.42 million based
on the September 30, 1999 net assets of Machinery and Sullair.

The unaudited pro forma  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements  for the
periods  ended  September  30,  1999 and the year ended  December  31,  1998 are
presented  for  information  purposes  only and are not  intended to reflect the
Registrant's  expected future financial  position or results of operations.  The
pro  forma  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements  should  be  read  in
conjunction with the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1998, and the Registrant's  Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999.
