Item 2.  Acquisition of Assets
         ---------------------

         On May 2, 1995, XTRA Corporation ("the Company") announced that it
reached an agreement in principle to acquire from Alexander & Baldwin, Inc.,
certain assets and assume certain liabilities of its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Matson Leasing Company, Inc. ("Matson").  The total consideration, all cash,
will amount to approximately $350 million, subject to certain adjustments.  The
acquisition, which is expected to close by June 30, 1995, is subject to the
completion of satisfactory due diligence, negotiation of a definitive purchase
agreement and other conditions typical in such transactions, including certain
regulatory approvals.  No assurance can be given that the acquisition will be
consummated.

Matson is a major lessor of marine containers.  Matson's assets at March 31,
1995 consist primarily of a fleet of approximately 165,000 twenty-foot
equivalent units and revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 1994
were approximately $64 million.

The Company's intention is to initially fund the acquisition with financing
provided by the Company's existing bank group, supplemented by several
additional banks.  The Company expects the financing will consist of an
expansion of its existing revolving credit agreements as well as a new five
year term loan at a floating interest rate.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


The Stockholder and Board of Directors of
   Matson Leasing Company, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Matson Leasing
Company, Inc. and subsidiaries, a wholly owned subsidiary of Matson
Navigation Company, Inc., as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related
consolidated statements of income, stockholder's equity, and cash flows for the
years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and 
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Matson Leasing Company, Inc. and
subsidiaries at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

MATSON LEASING COMPANY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF MATSON NAVIGATION COMPANY, INC.)

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.  ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    Organization and Operations - Matson Leasing Company, Inc. and its
    subsidiaries (the Company) are wholly-owned by Matson Navigation Company,
    Inc. (the Parent), which is wholly-owned by Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. (A&B).
    The Company owns and leases cargo containers primarily in the
    international marketplace.  Matson Leasing Company, Inc. is a Hawaii
    corporation and at December 31, 1994, has 598 shares of $1 par value common
    stock authorized, issued, and outstanding (see note 7).

    Basis of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the  
    business of Matson Leasing Company, Inc. and its subsidiaries.  All
    intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated.

    Foreign Currency Translation - Financial statements of the foreign
    subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with the
    provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52.  The
    United States dollar is the Company's functional currency.  Translation
    adjustments are included in net income for the period.

    Operating Lease Revenue - Rental revenue on container lease contracts is    
    generally recorded ratably over the lease term.  

    Containers - Containers are reported at cost plus acquisition expenses and
    depreciated on a straight-line basis over 15 years to a residual
    representing the estimated salvage value.

    Equipment and Leasehold Improvements - Equipment, consisting primarily of
    furniture and computer equipment, and leasehold improvements are reported
    at cost.  Equipment is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the
    estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from 3 to 10 years. 
    Depreciation expense includes amortization of leasehold improvements on a
    straight-line basis over the lease terms.

    Maintenance and Repairs - Regular maintenance and repair of the containers
    is performed periodically as the containers are redelivered at the end of
    their lease terms.  The accrual for maintenance and repairs includes
    estimates for costs incurred as normal wear and deterioration to the
    containers over their estimated useful lives.  Costs in excess of
    normal wear and deterioration are charged to the lessee.  The Company has a
    Damage Protection Plan whereby a customer may choose to purchase insurance
    to cover damage to containers in excess of normal wear and deterioration. 
    Management has based these accruals on the Company's operating history since
    inception in 1989.

    Income Taxes - The provision for federal income taxes has generally been
    computed on the basis of the inclusion of the Company in the consolidated
    federal income tax return of A&B.  The allocation of the provision is based
    on  an agreement with the Parent.  The Consolidated Statement of Income
    includes provisions for deferred income taxes for transactions that are
    reported in one period for financial accounting purposes and another period
    for income tax purposes.




                                     11.

    services which are not charged to the Company.  The Parent does not allocate
    or quantify the above services provided to the Company, which are not
    charged to the Company; however, management believes these expenses are not
    significant.

    The Company leases a minor portion of its total container fleet to its
    Parent under various lease agreements.

    The Company participates in the Parent's cash management program.  Under
    this program, the Company's cash and investments are commingled with the
    cash and investments of the Parent.  The Company's operating cash needs
    are provided by the Parent.  Interest is charged or earned on amounts
    advanced by or to the Parent.

    The Company has a commercial paper program guaranteed by the Parent.  The
    proceeds for the borrowings under this program are used to finance the
    acquisition of containers.  At December 31, 1994, commercial paper notes
    were outstanding under this program with maturities ranging from 4 to 37
    days. The commercial paper borrowings outstanding under this program are
    classified as long-term since it is the Company's intent to continue this
    program on a long-term basis and it has established the necessary credit
    facilities to do so.  At December 31, 1994, a long-term revolving credit
    facility of $100,000,000 was available to support these outstanding notes.

    Unsecured notes payable are guaranteed by the Parent and are for the
    purchase of containers.  Interest on the unpaid principal balances is
    payable in quarterly installments under the terms of all Agreements.  

<TABLE>
    At December 31, 1994, total maturities of long-term debt during the next
    five years were as follows (in thousands):

7.  CAPITAL DISTRIBUTION

    In 1994 and 1993, the Company's Board of Directors authorized distributions
    of $13,000,000 and $10,000,000, respectively, out of contributed capital. 
    To effect this distribution, the Company purchased and retired 227 and 175
    shares of its common stock in 1994 and 1993, respectively.

8.  PENSION PLAN AND EMPLOYEE PROFIT-SHARING PLAN

    The Company's United States employees are eligible to participate in A&B's
    defined benefit pension plan.  Contributions to the plan on behalf of the
    Company's U.S. employees and the related pension expense are determined by
    A&B and allocated to the Company by the Parent in proportion of the
    Company's payroll cost to the total payroll costs of the Parent.  The
    contribution to the plan and pension plan expense allocated to the Company
    for 1994 and 1993 was approximately $83,000 and $91,000.  The actuarial
    present value of accumulated benefit obligations, the projected benefit
    obligation and plan assets related to the employees of the Company have not
    been separately determined.


                                     15.
<PAGE>   16

    All of the Company's employees are also eligible to participate in A&B's
    employee profit-sharing plan.  The contribution made to the plan each year
    is determined by A&B's Board of Directors and is based upon the
    profitability of A&B's consolidated operations each year.  For the years
    ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, the estimated contributions for the
    Company were approximately $181,000 and $190,000, respectively.

9.  POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

    The Company provides certain retiree health and life insurance benefits to
    all of its United States employees under plans of A&B.  Employees are
    generally eligible for such benefits upon retirement and completion of a
    specified number of years of credited service.  The Company does not
    pre-fund these benefits and has the right to modify or terminate certain of
    these plans in the future. The current expense for future benefits and the
    accrued benefit obligation are determined by A&B and based on the proportion
    of the Company's payroll to the total payroll costs of A&B.  In 1994
    and 1993, the expenses for postretirement benefits were $55,000 and $35,000
    and the accrued benefit obligations were approximately $368,000, and
    $313,000 respectively.

2.       SUBSEQUENT EVENT

         ON MAY 2, 1995, MATSON NAVIGATION COMPANY, INC. ANNOUNCED THAT IT HAD 
         SIGNED A LETTER OF INTENT THAT OUTLINES TERMS OF AN AGREEMENT UNDER 
         WHICH XTRA CORPORATION WOULD ACQUIRE THE CONTAINERS AND CERTAIN 
         OTHER ASSETS AND LIABILITIES OF THE COMPANY FOR $350 MILLION, SUBJECT
         TO CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS. PROPOSED TRANSACTION, WHICH IS EXPECTED TO
         CLOSE BY JUNE 30, 1995 REQUIRES THE COMPLETION OF SATISFACTORY DUE
         DILIGENCE, PREPARATION OF A DEFINITIVE PURCHASE AGREEMENT AND OTHER
         CONDITIONS, INCLUDING REGULATORY APPROVALS.

                               XTRA CORPORATION
              UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The following unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements give effect to
the consummation of the acquisition of certain assets and the assumption of
certain liabilities ("Net Assets") of Matson Leasing Company, Inc. ("Matson")
by XTRA Corporation ("the Company").  The total consideration for the Net
Assets will amount to approximately $350 million, subject to final adjustments.
The Company's intention is to initially fund the acquisition with financing
provided by the Company's existing bank group, supplemented by several
additional banks.  The Company expects the financing will consist of an
expansion of its existing revolving credit agreements as well as a new five
year term loan at a floating interest rate.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet at March 31, 1995
(page 24) gives effect to the acquisition of the Net Assets assuming that the
purchase had been consummated as of March 31, 1995.  It is not practicable at
this time to determine the fair market value of the Net Assets to be acquired. 
Accordingly, for purposes of presenting pro forma information, the excess of
the purchase price over the Net Assets, as reflected in Matson's historical
financial statements, to be acquired is shown as "unallocated purchase price" 
on the accompanying pro forma balance sheet.  The effects resulting from any 
differences in the final allocation of the purchase price are not expected to 
have a material effect on the financial statements.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed income statements for the fiscal
year ended September 30, 1994 (page 25) and the six months ended March 31, 1995
(page 26) give effect to the acquisition of the Net Assets of Matson assuming
that the purchase had been consummated as of October 1, 1993.

Matson's fiscal year end differs from the Company's fiscal year end.  The
Company's fiscal year end is September 30 and Matson's fiscal year end is
December 31.  The unaudited pro forma condensed income statement for the fiscal
year ended September 30, 1994 includes XTRA Corporation's results of operations
for the twelve months ended September 30, 1994 and Matson's results of
operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 1994.  However, the pro
forma condensed results of operations for the six months ended March 31, 1995
are combined using the same periods for both XTRA and Matson.  Accordingly, 
the pro forma results of operations for both the fiscal year ended 
September 30, 1994 and the six months ended March 31, 1995 include the results 
of operations for Matson for the three months ended December 31, 1994.  
Matson's revenues and net income for the three months ended December 31, 1994 
were approximately $17.8 million and $3.2 million, respectively.

The unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements are not necessarily
indicative of the actual financial position or results of operations that would
have occurred had the acquisition been consummated as of the dates or for the
periods presented, or of future financial positions or results of operations of
the combined companies.

The Net Assets as of March 31, 1995 include a marine container fleet of
approximately 165,000 









                                     22.
<PAGE>   23
twenty-foot-equivalent units (TEU's).  As of October 1, 1993 and 1994, the 
fleet consisted of approximately 142,000 and 156,000 TEU's, respectively.

Revenues are a function of lease rates and working units.  The working units
depends on fleet size and equipment utilization.  Matson's results of
operations included in the pro forma condensed income statements for the fiscal
year ended September 30, 1994 and the six months ended March 31, 1995 reflect
the smaller average fleet size that existed during those periods as compared to
the fleet size as of March 31, 1995.

Interest expense in the pro forma condensed income statements is computed using
a floating interest rate of 6.1%.  A one-eighth percentage change in the
floating interest rate would result in a $.3 million change in net income.  The
Company expects to replace substantially all of the $350 million of floating
rate debt with fixed rate debt during the next twelve months.  The interest
rate currently available to the Company on seven year fixed rate debt is
approximately 7.0%.

NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED BALANCE SHEET

(1)  As reported in XTRA Corporation's March 31, 1995 Form 10-Q. 

(2)  As reported in Matson Leasing Company, Inc.'s quarterly financial statements (unaudited) dated March 31, 1995. 
     Certain reclassifications have been made to present Matson on a basis consistent with XTRA.

(3)  To eliminate certain assets and liabilities from Matson's March 31, 1995 balance sheet (unaudited) which are not included in 
     the Net Assets acquired and to net accumulated depreciation against the cost of property and equipment.

(4)  The following pro forma adjustments relate to the Net Assets acquired:
