                        PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  It is suggested that
these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the December 31, 1993 Annual Report
on Form 10-K for The CIT Group Holdings, Inc. (the "Corporation").

     The Corporation considers that all adjustments (all of which are normal
recurring accruals) necessary for a fair statement of the financial position
and results of operations for these periods have been made; however, results
for such interim periods are subject to year-end audit adjustments.  Results
for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full
year.  Amounts for 1993 have been reclassified, where necessary, to conform to
1994 presentations.

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

NET INCOME
Net income for the first quarter of 1994 totaled a record $48.0 million, an
increase of $4.5 million (10.3%) from the $43.5 million reported in the first
quarter of 1993.  The record earnings were due to improved net interest and
other revenue, reflecting excellent finance receivables growth over the past
year.

FINANCING AND LEASING ASSETS
Financing and leasing assets increased from both year-end 1993 and March 31,
1993 as presented in the following table.

                                 March 31,      December 31,    March 31,
Amounts in Millions                1994            1993           1993
- - -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finance receivables              $13,590.1      $12,624.1       $12,149.3
Equipment under operating lease      738.7          751.9           470.8
- - -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Financing and leasing assets     $14,328.8      $13,376.0       $12,620.1
- - -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The increase of $952.9 million (7.1%) from December 31, 1993 is primarily due
to the February 28, 1994 acquisition of Barclays Commercial Corporation
("BCC"), a major provider of factoring, commercial finance and credit related
services.  BCC added $747.5 million to finance receivables at March 31, 1994;
otherwise, financing and leasing assets grew a modest $205.4 million (1.5%)
since year-end 1993.  The gain of $1.71 billion (13.5%) from March 31, 1993
reflects strong 1993 growth in the Corporation's middle-market businesses,
complemented by the 1994 BCC acquisition.
                                  -8-
<PAGE>
Changes in financing and leasing assets from December 31, 1993 are discussed
below for each business unit.

Corporate Finance
  - Capital Equipment Financing - Customized secured equipment financing and
    leasing for major capital equipment.  Finance receivables were
    $4.27 billion at March 31, 1994 down $124.3 million (2.8%) from
    $4.39 billion at December 31, 1993, principally due to customer
    prepayments and continued weak demand for equipment financing with larger
    companies in certain sectors of the market, including commercial airlines. 
    Equipment under operating lease totaled $550.2 million at March 31, 1994,
    a decrease of $15.5 million (2.7%) from $565.7 million at December 31,
    1993.
  - Business Credit - Revolving and term loans, including debtor-in-possession
    and workout financing, to medium and larger-sized companies secured by
    accounts receivable, inventory and fixed assets.  Finance receivables
    totaled $1.23 billion at March 31, 1994, a decrease of $53.8 million
    (4.2%) from the $1.28 billion reported at December 31, 1993, as customer
    paydowns exceeded new borrowings.
  - Credit Finance - Revolving and term loans, including restructurings, to
    small and medium-sized companies secured by accounts receivable, inventory
    and fixed assets.  Receivables growth continued during the current quarter
    with finance receivables reaching $690.8 million at March 31, 1994, an
    increase of $45.1 million (7.0%), compared with $645.6 million at
    December 31, 1993, as improving economic conditions for middle-market
    clients contributed to their need for financing.
 
                                    -9-

Dealer and Manufacturer Financing
  - Industrial Financing - Secured equipment financing and leasing for medium-
    sized companies, including dealer and manufacturer financing.  Finance
    receivables were $3.90 billion at March 31, 1994, an increase of
    $19.1 million (0.5%), compared with $3.88 billion at December 31, 1993. 
    The increase was modest in spite of record first quarter funding volume
    with middle-market companies, which was essentially offset by higher than
    normal liquidations.  Equipment under operating lease was relatively
    unchanged at $188.6 million at March 31, 1994, compared with
    $186.2 million at December 31, 1993.
  - Sales Financing - Retail secured financing of recreation vehicles,
    recreation boats, and manufactured housing, through dealers and
    manufacturers.  Finance receivables were $1.34 billion at March 31, 1994,
    an increase of $37.2 million (2.8%), compared with $1.31 billion at
    December 31, 1993, as the volume of new business remained consistent with
    recent quarters.
  - Consumer Finance - Loans secured by first or second mortgages on
    residential real estate, generated primarily through direct marketing. 
    Finance receivables grew to $192.0 million at March 31, 1994, an increase
    of $60.7 million (46.2%), compared with $131.3 million at December 31,
    1993, reflecting increased levels of origination activity, including new
    loans generated by 18 additional branches opened in late 1993.

                                  -10-
<PAGE>

Factoring
  - Commercial Services -  Factoring of accounts receivables, including credit
    protection, bookkeeping and collection activities.  Finance receivables
    reached $1.96 billion at March 31, 1994, doubling the $981.9 million
    reported at December 31, 1993, largely as a result of the aforementioned
    BCC acquisition.   A seasonal increase in traditional factoring activity
    and volume with new clients in non-traditional industries also contributed
    to the growth in finance receivables from year-end 1993.

Commercial Airline Industry
Commercial airline finance receivables and equipment under operating lease
totaled $1.85 billion or 12.9% of total financing and leasing assets (before
the reserve for credit losses) at March 31, 1994, compared with $1.89 billion
(14.2%) at December 31, 1993.  The portfolio is secured by commercial aircraft
and related equipment and is further described in the following table.

                                            MARCH 31,             DECEMBER 31,

(a) Includes accrued rents on operating leases of $0.6 million and $1.0
    million at March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993, respectively, which are
    classified in finance receivables in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(b) Certain obligors have both finance receivable and operating lease
    transactions.


One commercial airline obligor, with outstandings of $63.6 million at
March 31, 1994 ($64.2 million at December 31, 1993), was subject to
proceedings under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended. 

                                 -11-
<PAGE>

However, this obligor was current on its contractual obligations with the
Corporation at March 31, 1994.

Highly Leveraged Transactions
Highly leveraged transactions ("HLTs") totaled $369.7 million (2.6% of
financing and leasing assets before the reserve for credit losses) at
March 31, 1994, down from $476.6 million (3.6%) at December 31, 1993, as a
result of delisting various transactions which satisfied the HLT delisting
criteria, as set forth by certain federal supervisory agencies.

The Corporation's HLT outstandings are generally secured by collateral, as
distinguished from HLTs that rely primarily on cash flow from operations.  At
March 31, 1994, the portfolio consisted of 25 obligors in 11 industry groups,
located throughout the United States, with the largest regional concentration,
26.5%, in the Northeast.  The nonaccrual status of the three accounts so
classified at December 31, 1993 was unchanged at March 31, 1994.  However, the
total outstandings declined to $21.5 million at March 31, 1994 from 
$34.7 million at year-end 1993.

Unfunded commitments to lend in secured HLT situations were $83.2 million at
March 31, 1994, compared with $123.1 million at December 31, 1993.

NET INTEREST REVENUE
During the 1994 first quarter, average financing and leasing assets ("AEA")
were $13.02 billion, an increase of 10.0%, compared with $11.84 billion for
the comparable 1993 period.  Net interest revenue (interest and fees earned
less interest expense) increased to $175.1 million for the 1994 first quarter,
up $12.1 million (7.4%) from $163.0 million for the comparable 1993 period. 

                                  -12-
<PAGE>

As a percentage of AEA, net interest revenue was 5.37% for the 1994 first
quarter, compared with 5.51% in the 1993 first quarter, as interest rates
earned on financing and leasing assets decreased more rapidly than interest
rates paid on funds borrowed by the Corporation.

Interest and fees earned rose to $303.9 million for the first quarter of 1994,
a $16.2 million (5.6%) improvement over the $287.7 million reported in the
first quarter of 1993, and interest expense totaled $128.8 million for the
1994 first quarter, $4.2 million (3.3%) higher than the $124.7 million
reported in the 1993 period.

Fluctuations in market interest rates can affect net interest revenue through
changes in the spread between interest charged on interest-earning assets and
interest rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities.  As the level of market
interest rates and the relationship between short-term and long-term market
interest rates change, there is exposure to potential increases or decreases
in net interest revenue.

A comparative analysis of the weighted average interest rates paid on the
Corporation's debt, after giving effect to interest rate swaps, is set forth
below.

Interest rate swap transactions are generally entered into by the Corporation
as a hedge against market interest rate fluctuations and are not entered into
for trading or speculative purposes.

GAINS ON ASSET SALES
Gains on asset sales for the first quarter of 1994 were $7.6 million, compared
with $1.3 million in the comparable 1993 quarter.  The increase is
attributable to securitizing $150 million of recreation vehicle receivables in
January 1994 and to the sale of equipment previously on lease.

OPERATING EXPENSES
Operating expenses before the provision for credit losses totaled
$80.5 million for the 1994 first quarter, an increase of $12.9 million (19.0%)
from $67.7 million for the 1993 first quarter.  As a percentage of AEA,
operating expenses were 2.47% in 1994, compared with 2.29% in 1993.  The
increases are primarily attributable to several unrelated factors, including
the operating expenses associated with the acquired BCC factoring business,
the continued expansion of Consumer Finance, and nonrecurring items
(principally charges associated with consolidating Sales Financing's 12
business acquisition centers into five regional business centers).  Excluding
the BCC expenses and the nonrecurring items, operating expenses as a
percentage of AEA were 2.31% for the first quarter of 1994. 

The aforementioned factors resulted in salaries and employee benefits rising
to $43.3 million for the first quarter of 1994, an increase of $5.5 million
(14.5%), from $37.8 million in the 1993 first quarter, and in other operating
expenses increasing to $37.3 million for the 1994 first quarter, an increase
of $7.4 million (24.8%), compared with the $29.9 million reported in the 1993
first quarter.

PROVISION AND RESERVE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
The total provision for credit losses was $24.9 million for the first quarter
of 1994, compared with $24.3 million for the comparable 1993 period.  Net
charge-offs totaled $25.8 million, .80% (annualized) of average finance
receivables for the current quarter, compared with $22.4 million, .75%
(annualized) of average finance receivables for the 1993 first quarter.

The reserve for credit losses at March 31, 1994 was $180.0 million, 1.32% of
finance receivables, compared with $169.4 million, 1.34% of finance
receivables, at year-end 1993.  The increase from year-end 1993 is
attributable to credit loss reserves acquired as part of the BCC acquisition.

PAST DUE AND NONACCRUAL FINANCE RECEIVABLES,
AND ASSETS RECEIVED IN SATISFACTION OF LOANS
Finance receivables past due 60 days or more were $198.2 million (1.46% of
finance receivables) at March 31, 1994, down from $216.1 million (1.71%) at
December 31, 1993 and $317.9 million (2.62%) at March 31, 1993.  Past due
receivables on nonaccrual status declined to $105.6 million (0.78% of finance
receivables) at March 31, 1994, from $139.9 million (1.11%) at December 31,
1993 and $220.4 million (1.81%) at March 31, 1993.  Excluding past due loans
in Industrial Financing that have dealer or manufacturer recourse provisions,
the percentage of finance receivables past due 60 days or more was 1.16% at
March 31, 1994, down from 1.47% at December 31, 1993 and 2.30% at March 31,
1993.

Assets received in satisfaction of loans were $79.5 million at March 31, 1994,
down from $87.0 million at year-end 1993 and $106.0 million at March 31, 1993.

INCOME TAXES
The effective income tax rate for the 1994 first quarter was 37.8%, versus
39.8% in the comparable prior year period.

LIQUIDITY
The Corporation relies upon cash flow from operations to provide liquidity,
but is also dependent upon issuing commercial paper and variable rate and
fixed rate term debt to satisfy its financing needs.

At March 31, 1994, commercial paper borrowings were supported by $4.31 billion
of credit line facilities, representing 70% of operating commercial paper
(commercial paper outstanding less the amount funding short-term interest-
bearing deposits).  No borrowings have been made under credit lines since
1970.

CAPITALIZATION
The following table presents information regarding the Corporation's capital
structure.

Since year-end 1993, commercial paper borrowings decreased $313.2 million to
$6.20 billion at March 31, 1994.  Repayments of term debt totaled
$507.5 million in the 1994 first quarter consisting of $300.0 million of
variable rate and $207.5 million of fixed rate term debt.  During the quarter,
the Corporation issued $801.0 million of variable rate and $300.0 million of
fixed rate term debt.

At March 31, 1994, $1.77 billion of registered but unissued debt securities
remained available under shelf registration statements.  A shelf registration
statement for an additional $4.0 billion of debt securities was filed with,
but not yet declared effective by, the Securities and Exchange Commission.

INVESTMENTS IN DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES
The Corporation adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities" ("SFAS 115") effective January 1, 1994.  SFAS 115 requires equity
securities with readily determinable fair values and all debt securities be 
classified as either held-to-maturity, available-for-sale or trading; and that
unrealized gains and losses be reported as a separate component of
stockholders' equity, for available-for-sale securities, or included in
earnings, for trading securities.  At March 31, 1994, the total carrying value
of investments subject to the provisions of SFAS 115 and the related
unrealized gains and losses were immaterial.  Additionally, none of the
investments were classified as trading securities and, accordingly, no
unrealized gains or losses are included in income for the quarter ended
March 31, 1994.
