ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
NET INCOME
Net income for the 1997 second quarter totaled a record $93.7 million, an
increase of $21.3 million (29.4%) from $72.4 million in 1996. For the six months
ended June 30, 1997, net income totaled a record $163.8 million compared with
$132.2 million in 1996, an increase of 23.9%. Return on average financing and
leasing assets for the quarter and six months increased to 2.07% and 1.83%,
respectively, compared with 1.79% and 1.64% for the same periods in 1996. The
improvements resulted from growth in net finance income from a higher level of
earning assets and a gain on the sale of an equity interest acquired in a loan
workout.

The changes in net finance income reflect increases in AEA (primarily comprised
of finance receivables, less credit balances of factoring clients, consumer
finance receivables held for sale and operating lease equipment) offset by lower
yields due to a highly competitive marketplace.
A comparative analysis of the weighted average principal outstanding and
interest rates paid on the Corporation's debt for the three and six month
periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, before and after giving effect to interest
rate swaps, is shown in the following tables.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Corporation's interest-rate swaps principally convert floating-rate debt to
fixed-rate debt and effectively lower both the variable and fixed rates. The
weighted average composite rate increases, however, because a larger proportion
of the Corporation's debt, after giving effect to interest-rate
-7-
<PAGE>
swaps, is subject to a fixed rate. The Corporation does not enter into
derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
FEES AND OTHER INCOME
Fees and other income totaled $49.4 million in the 1997 second quarter, compared
with $73.2 million in 1996. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, fees and
other income totaled $107.1 million, a decrease of $18.8 million over the
comparable 1996 period. The 1996 results included a $16.2 million pretax gain in
the Equity Investments portfolio.
GAIN ON SALE OF EQUITY INTEREST ACQUIRED IN LOAN WORKOUT
The Corporation originated a loan in the 1980's to a telecommunications company
that subsequently went into default. Pursuant to a workout agreement, the stock
of the company was transferred to the Corporation and a co-lender. In 1991 the
Corporation received all amounts due and retained an equity interest in the
company, which was sold in 1997 for a pretax gain of $58.0 million.

The increases in salaries and employee benefits are primarily attributable to
the higher level of serviced assets and higher performance-based incentive
accruals. The increases in general operating expenses were primarily the result
of a provision for vacant leased office space recorded in the second quarter of
1997. Management monitors productivity via the relationship of salaries and
general operating expenses to AEA and average serviced assets, which is
comprised of financing and leasing assets, off-balance sheet securitized finance
receivables, and other consumer receivables serviced for third parties.

PROVISION AND RESERVE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
The provisions for credit losses for the second quarter and first six months of
1997 were $29.0 million and $55.0 million, respectively, compared with $26.6
million and $54.4 million for the same periods of 1996. Comparative net credit
loss experience is provided in the following table.

</TABLE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The increases for both periods were primarily the result of higher consumer net
credit losses due to portfolio seasoning.
The reserve for credit losses increased to $221.9 million (1.32% of finance
receivables) at June 30, 1997 from $220.8 million (1.30% of finance receivables)
at December 31, 1996.
OPERATING LEASE EQUIPMENT
Depreciation on operating lease equipment for the second quarter and first six
months of 1997 was $33.9 million and $66.0 million, respectively, up from $28.8
million and $56.3 million for the same periods in 1996, reflecting growth in the
operating lease portfolio.
From time to time, certain operators of leased equipment may experience
financial or operational difficulties that may affect their ability to meet
their contractual obligations with the Corporation. At June 30, 1997, commercial
aircraft and oil refinery assets with an approximate carrying value of $95.5
million were subject to agreements with operators that are experiencing such
difficulties that may
-10-
<PAGE>
affect future payments to the Corporation. The Corporation does not believe
these difficulties will have a significant effect on its consolidated financial
position or results of operations.
INCOME TAXES
The effective income tax rates for the 1997 and 1996 second quarters were 36.4%
and 38.4%, respectively. For the first six months of 1997, the effective tax
rate was 36.6% compared with 38.3% in 1996. The decreases are a result of lower
state and local income taxes.

$1,134.1 million at June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively. The
deduction of client credit balances from gross factored receivables
results in the presentation of actual funds employed by the Commercial
Services unit.
-11-
<PAGE>
Commercial finance receivables were relatively unchanged from December 31, 1996
due to continued paydowns and a highly competitive marketplace. The increase in
consumer finance receivables is a result of 43.4% growth in Sales Financing new
business originations, primarily in the recreational marine and manufactured
housing products. Principally all 1997 recreational marine, recreational
vehicle, and home equity originations are classified as held for sale. The
growth in operating lease equipment occurred primarily in commercial aircraft
and railroad equipment.
Concentrations
Commercial Airline Industry
Commercial airline financing and leasing assets totaled $2.0 billion or 10.9% of
total financing and leasing assets at June 30, 1997, up slightly from the
December 31, 1996 balance of $1.9 billion. The portfolio is secured by
commercial aircraft and related equipment. Management continues to limit the
growth in this portfolio relative to total financing and leasing assets.

LIQUIDITY
The Corporation manages liquidity by monitoring the relative maturities of
assets and liabilities and by borrowing funds, primarily in the United States
money and capital markets. Such cash is used to fund asset growth (including the
bulk purchase of finance receivables and the acquisition of other
finance-related businesses) and to meet debt obligations and other commitments
on a timely and cost-effective basis. The primary sources of funding are
commercial paper borrowings, medium-term notes, other term debt securities and
securitizations.
During the first six months of 1997, commercial paper borrowings increased
$550.8 million and the Corporation issued $1.0 billion of prime-based
variable-rate term debt and $0.9 billion of fixed-rate debt. Repayments of term
debt totaled $1.8 billion. At June 30, 1997, $9.06 billion of registered, but
unissued, debt securities remained available under shelf registration
statements.

At June 30, 1997, commercial paper borrowings were supported by $5.04 billion of
committed revolving credit-line facilities, representing 81% of operating
commercial paper outstanding (commercial paper outstanding less interest-bearing
deposits). No borrowings have been made under credit lines supporting commercial
paper since 1970.
As part of the Corporation's continuing program of accessing the public and
private asset-backed securitization markets as an additional liquidity source,
recreational marine finance receivables of $139.1 million were securitized by
the Corporation during the first six months of 1997. Additionally, in July 1997,
home equity finance receivables totaling $500.0 million were securitized. At
June 30, 1997, $1.2 billion of registered, but unissued, securities relating to
the Corporation's asset-backed securitization program, remained available under
shelf registration statements.
In February 1997 CIT Capital Trust I, a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Corporation, issued $250.0 million of 7.70% Preferred Capital Securities; the
proceeds of which were invested in Junior Subordinated Debentures of the
Corporation having identical rates and payment dates.
