ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued).
 
        GENERAL ELECTRIC CAPITAL CORPORATION AND CONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES
 
             NOTES TO CONDENSED, CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)
 
1. The condensed, consolidated financial statements represent a consolidation of
   General Electric Capital Corporation ("Corporation") and all majority-owned
   and controlled affiliates ("consolidated affiliates"). All significant
   transactions among the parent and consolidated affiliates have been
   eliminated. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal
   recurring nature necessary to present a fair statement of financial position
   as of April 1, 1995, the statement of cash flows for the three-month interim
   periods ended April 1, 1995, and April 2, 1994, and the results of operations
   for the three-month interim periods ended April 1, 1995, and April 2, 1994,
   have been included. The condensed, consolidated financial statements have
   been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and therefore
   do not include some information and notes necessary to constitute a complete
   and detailed presentation in conformity with annual reporting requirements.
 
2. The results of operations for the three months ended April 1, 1995, should
   not be regarded as necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
   for the entire year.
 
3. The ratio of earnings to fixed charges was 1.52 for the three months ended
   April 1, 1995. For purposes of computing the ratio, earnings consist of net
   earnings adjusted for provision for income taxes, minority interest and fixed
   charges. Fixed charges consist of interest on all indebtedness and one-third
   of annual rentals, which the Corporation believes is a reasonable
   approximation of the interest factor of such rentals. The ratio of earnings
   to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends was 1.51 for the
   three months ended April 1, 1995.
 
4. The Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
   No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, and the related
   SFAS No. 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan -- Income
   Recognition and Disclosures, on January 1, 1995 (together, the Statements).
   The Statements modify the accounting and disclosures that apply to impaired
   loans, which are loans for which management believes it is probable the
   Corporation will be unable to collect all amounts due under original contract
   terms based on insufficient cash flows and collateral values. The Statements
   do not apply to large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans. The
   Corporation's impaired loans are primarily commercial real estate loans,
   originated prior to the severe market downturn in the early 1990's, which
   have been restructured from their original terms. This accounting change had
   no effect on the Corporation's earnings or financial position because the
   Corporation's existing allowance for losses was appropriate under both the
   Corporation's previous accounting policy as well as the newly-adopted policy.
   At April 1, 1995, the recorded investment in impaired loans requiring an
   allowance for losses in accordance with these standards was $625 million, on
   which the portion of the Corporation's previously recorded allowance required
   by the Statements was $282 million. The Statements also require disclosure of
   loans for which the recorded investment is recoverable but meet the technical
   definition of "impaired" because the net investment has been reduced through
   previous charge-offs or deferral of income recognition. The amount of such
   loans, which do not require any specific allowance for losses because of
   their recoverability, was $452 million at April 1, 1995. Interest income on
   impaired loans is recognized either as cash is collected or on a cost
   recovery basis as conditions warrant.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
 
OVERVIEW
 
     Net earnings for the first quarter of 1995 were $528 million, an $84
million (19%) increase over the first quarter of 1994. The Corporation's
contribution to its parent, General Electric Capital Services, Inc. (GECS),
after payment of dividends on its variable cumulative preferred stock, was $518
million, an $80 million (18%) increase over the comparable 1994 period.
 
     Earnings of the Corporation's lending, leasing and equipment management
businesses are significantly influenced by the level of invested assets, the
related financing spreads (the excess of rates earned -- yields -- over rates on
borrowings) and the quality of those assets. The Corporation's increase in net
earnings principally resulted from a higher average level of invested assets and
lower provisions for losses on financing receivables, partially offset by a
decrease in spreads, as the increase in interest rates paid on borrowings
exceeded the increase in yields.
 
OPERATING RESULTS
 
     EARNED INCOME from all sources increased $982 million (26%) to $4,790
million for the first quarter of 1995 over the first quarter of 1994.
 
     Earned income from the Corporation's specialized financing, mid-market
financing, consumer services and equipment management businesses increased $956
million (28%) over the comparable prior-year period principally reflecting a
higher average level of invested assets, resulting from both origination volume
and acquisitions of portfolios and businesses, and increased yields. Earned
income from the Corporation's specialty insurance businesses increased slightly
during the first quarter of 1995 compared with the first quarter of 1994
primarily reflecting growth in premium and investment income in the property and
casualty business, due to acquisition growth in the prior year.
 
     INTEREST EXPENSE for the first quarter of 1995 increased $517 million (52%)
from the first quarter of the prior year. The increase reflected the effects of
significantly higher interest rates and additional borrowings required to
finance the higher level of invested assets. The Corporation's composite
interest rate for the first quarter of 1995 was 6.66%, compared with 4.88% for
the first quarter of 1994.
 
     OPERATING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES were $1,432 million in the first
quarter of 1995, up 13% over the first quarter of 1994. This increase reflected
operating costs associated with the higher level of assets, largely the result
of businesses and portfolios acquired over the past year.
 
     INSURANCE LOSSES AND POLICYHOLDER AND ANNUITY BENEFITS were $516 million
for the first quarter of 1995, compared with $351 million during the first
quarter of 1994, principally as a result of growth in annuity benefits credited
to customers of the annuity business, resulting from a 1994 acquisition, and
continued adverse loss development in private mortgage pool insurance.
 
     PROVISION FOR LOSSES ON FINANCING RECEIVABLES during the first quarter of
1995 was $79 million, compared with $170 million during the comparable
prior-year period, principally reflecting improved credit quality of the
portfolio.
 
     DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION OF BUILDINGS AND EQUIPMENT AND EQUIPMENT ON
OPERATING LEASES was $450 million in the first quarter of 1995, $66 million
higher than in the first quarter of 1994, reflecting higher levels of equipment
on operating leases as a result of portfolio growth and acquisitions.
 
     PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES for the first quarter of 1995 was $266 million
(an effective tax rate of 33%) compared with $191 million (30%) for the
comparable prior-year period. The higher provision for income taxes was
primarily due to increased pre-tax earnings subject to regular tax rates. The
increase in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to proportionately
lower tax-exempt income on investment securities, lower amortized tax credits
and reduced earnings on leveraged leases with effective tax rates lower than
statutory rates. These increases were partially offset by increased dividends
that are not fully taxable.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(Continued).
PORTFOLIO QUALITY
 
     Financing revenues are directly related to the largest financing asset, the
portfolio of financing receivables. The portfolio, net of the allowance for
losses, aggregated $81.4 billion at April 1, 1995, an increase of $5.1 billion
(7%) from year-end 1994. The related allowance for losses was $2.2 billion
(2.63% of receivables -- the same level as at the end of 1994) and is, in
management's judgment, appropriate given the risk profile of the portfolio. A
discussion of the portfolio quality of certain elements of financing receivables
and investments follows. "Non-earning" receivables are those that are 90 days
or more delinquent and "reduced earnings" receivables are those that have been
restructured such that the interest rate is below market.
   
     CONSUMER loans receivable, primarily retailer and auto, were $24.5 billion
at April 1, 1995, an increase of $1.4 billion from the end of 1994. In addition,
the Corporation's investment in consumer auto finance lease receivables was $8.3
billion at April 1, 1995, an increase of $0.8 billion from the end of 1994.
Nonearning receivables increased to $557 million at April 1, 1995, from $422
million at December 31, 1994, primarily related to acquisitions. Write-offs of
retailer and auto financing receivables were $143 million for the first quarter
of 1995, compared with $131 million for the first quarter of 1994.
 
     COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE LOANS classified as financing receivables by the
Commercial Real Estate business were $12.3 billion at April 1, 1995, compared
with $11.9 billion at December 31, 1994. In addition, the investment portfolio
of the Corporation's annuity business included approximately $1.4 billion of
commercial property loans at April 1, 1995, which remained unchanged from
December 31, 1994. The April 1, 1995, commercial real estate portfolio also
included, in other assets, $2.4 billion of assets acquired for resale from
various institutions compared with $2.1 billion at December 31, 1994. In
addition, at April 1, 1995, investments in real estate ventures amounting to
$1.4 billion were included in other assets (unchanged from year-end 1994).
Nonearning and reduced earning receivables were $182 million at April 1, 1995,
essentially the same as at the prior year end. Write-offs of Commercial Real
Estate loans were $57 million for the first three months of 1995, compared with
$29 million for the comparable prior-year period.
 
     OTHER FINANCING RECEIVABLES relate primarily to a diverse commercial,
industrial and equipment loan and lease portfolio. Nonearning and reduced
earning receivables increased to $191 million at April 1, 1995, from $165
million at the prior year end. This portfolio included approximately $2.4
billion of financings provided for highly leveraged management buyouts and
corporate recapitalizations at April 1, 1995, essentially unchanged from
December 31, 1994.
 
     The Corporation's aggregate loans and leases to commercial airlines at
April 1, 1995, approximated $7.6 billion, essentially unchanged from December
31, 1994.
 
OTHER MATTERS
 
     As 1995 progresses, management continues to believe that the diversity and
strength of the Corporation's assets, along with vigilant attention to risk
management, positions it to deal effectively with a changing global economic
environment.
