FINOVA CAPITAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND 1997
NOTE A BASIS OF PREPARATION
The consolidated financial statements present the financial position,
results of operations and cash flows of FINOVA Capital Corporation and its
subsidiaries (collectively, "FINOVA" or the "Company"). FINOVA is a wholly owned
subsidiary of The FINOVA Group Inc.
The interim condensed consolidated financial information is unaudited.
In the opinion of management all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
items, necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30,
1998, the results of operations for the quarter and nine months ended September
30, 1998 and 1997 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
and 1997, have been included. Interim results of operations are not necessarily
indicative of the results of operations for the full year.
Previously, volume-based fees, which represent fees generated by
Inventory Finance, Commercial Services (formerly "Factoring Services") and
FINOVA Realty Capital lines of business, were classified as a component of
interest and income earned from financing transactions. Commencing in 1998, the
Company has reported these amounts as a separate item and reclassified prior
period amounts accordingly. This change in classification has no effect on
previously reported net income or earnings per share.
NOTE B SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income," which is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. The statement changes the reporting of certain items
currently reported in the shareowner's equity section of the balance sheet and
establishes standards for reporting of comprehensive income and its components
in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. The Company has adopted
this standard effective January 1, 1998. Total comprehensive income was $43.2
million and $35.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 1998 and
1997, respectively and $125.5 million and $102.1 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The primary component of
comprehensive income other than net income was foreign currency translation.
NOTE C PORTFOLIO QUALITY
The following table presents a distribution (by line of business) of
the Company's investment in financing transactions before the reserve for credit
losses at the dates indicated.

RESERVE FOR CREDIT LOSSES:
The reserve for credit losses at September 30, 1998 represents 2.0% of
the Company's investment in financing transactions (excluding financing
contracts held for sale) and securitized assets. Changes in the reserve for
credit losses were as follows:

A specific impairment reserve of $34.3 million at September 30, 1998
applies to $82.6 million of the $162.3 million of impaired loans. The remaining
$152.9 million of the reserve for credit losses is designated for general
purposes and represents management's estimate of potential losses in the
portfolio considering delinquencies, loss experience and collateral. Additions
to the general and specific reserves are reflected in current operations.
Management may transfer reserves between the general and specific reserves as
considered necessary.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
COMPARISON OF THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998
TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION RELATES TO FINOVA CAPITAL CORPORATION AND ITS
SUBSIDIARIES (COLLECTIVELY, "FINOVA" OR THE "COMPANY"). FINOVA IS A WHOLLY OWNED
SUBSIDIARY OF THE FINOVA GROUP INC. ("FINOVA GROUP").
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was $126.1
million compared to $103.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
INTEREST MARGINS EARNED. Interest margins earned represent the
difference between (a) interest and income earned from financing transactions
and operating lease income and (b) interest expense and depreciation on
operating leases and other owned assets. Interest margins earned were $343.5
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 compared to $300.6 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, a 14% increase. The increase was
primarily due to a 17% growth in managed assets to $9.91 billion at September
30, 1998 from $8.45 billion at September 30, 1997.
VOLUME-BASED FEE INCOME. Volume-based fee income is generated by
FINOVA's Inventory Finance, Commercial Services (formerly "Factoring Services")
and Realty Capital lines of business. These fees are predominately based on
volume originated business rather than the balance of outstanding financing
transactions during the period. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998,
volume-based fee income was $57.9 million compared to $25.9 million for the same
period in 1997.
6
<PAGE>
Fee-based volume for the first nine months of 1998 totaled $5.4 billion compared
to $2.7 billion in the same period one year ago. Included in the first nine
months of 1998 were fees associated with FINOVA Realty Capital ("FRC") and the
Inventory Finance portfolio purchased from AT&T Capital Corp., both of which
were acquired in the fourth quarter of 1997.
PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES. The provision for credit losses was $44.5
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 compared to $48.3 million
for the same period one year ago. Net write-offs during the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 were $36.9 million compared to $29.2 million for the same
period in 1997. The 1998 net write-offs included $21.0 million of amounts
written off relative to the Commercial Services line of business, a portion of
which had previously been specifically reserved.
GAINS ON DISPOSAL OF ASSETS. Gains on disposal of assets were $24.2
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 compared to $22.4 million
for the first nine months of 1997. Gains on disposal of assets include the sale
of assets coming off lease, the sale of other assets and the sale of loans via
the commercial mortgage backed securities ("CMBS") market. Net losses from the
CMBS market totaled $4.2 million and included gains of $10.4 million offset by
hedge losses of $14.6 million. The other $28.4 million of gains included gains
from the sale of assets coming off lease, gains from the sale of Franchise
Finance loans and other assets, and the reversal of reserves due to the receipt
of a favorable resolution in a bankruptcy. While, in the aggregate, FINOVA
historically recognizes gains on such disposals, the timing and amount of these
gains are sporadic in nature. There can be no assurance FINOVA will recognize
such gains in the future, depending, in part, on market conditions at the time
of sale.
SELLING, ADMINISTRATIVE AND OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES. Selling,
administrative and other operating expenses ("operating expenses") were
generally higher in all major categories and increased to $175.8 million for the
first nine months of 1998 compared to $137.3 million for the first nine months
of 1997. This increase was partially attributable to the growth in managed
assets during the year. Also contributing to the increase was the addition of
FRC, which has a higher operating cost structure than FINOVA, including over 80
business development officers and associated support staff. Meanwhile, operating
expenses were 43.8% of operating margins for the nine months ended September 30,
1998 compared to 42.0% in the same period in 1997. Excluding the addition of
FRC, FINOVA's operating expense ratio would have been 40.9% for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998.
INCOME TAXES. Income taxes were higher for the first nine months of
1998 compared to the corresponding period in 1997 due to the increase in pre-tax
income and a higher effective tax rate in 1998 (38.6% vs 36.7%). The 1997 tax
rate was lower due to certain tax credits realized in 1997.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Managed assets were $9.91 billion at September 30, 1998 compared to
$8.86 billion at December 31, 1997. Included in managed assets at September 30,
1998 were $9.39 billion in funds employed (including $240.9 million of financing
contracts held for sale generated by FRC), $413.4 million of securitized assets
managed by FINOVA and $102.7 million of participations sold to third parties.
The increase in managed assets was due to funded new business of $2.7 billion
for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, coupled with a net increase in
volume based receivables, partially offset by normal portfolio amortization and
prepayments.
The reserve for credit losses increased to $187.2 million at September
30, 1998 from $177.1 million at December 31, 1997, while nonaccruing assets
increased to $199.4 million at September 30, 1998 from $187.4 million at the end
of 1997. However, nonaccruing assets as a percent of ending
7
<PAGE>
managed assets (excluding participations sold) improved to 2.0% as compared to
2.1% at December 31, 1997.
At September 30, 1998, FINOVA had $7.89 billion of debt outstanding,
representing 5.95 times the Company's equity base of $1.33 billion. At year-end
1997, FINOVA's debt was 5.37 times the equity base of $1.26 billion.
Growth in funds employed is financed by FINOVA's internally generated
funds and new borrowings. During the nine months ended September 30, 1998,
FINOVA issued $915 million of new long-term borrowings and recognized a net
increase in commercial paper outstanding of $875 million. During the same
period, FINOVA repaid $664 million of long-term borrowings.
YEAR 2000 DATE CONVERSION
FINOVA continues to implement changes necessary to assure accurate date
recognition and data processing with respect to the year 2000. To be year 2000
compliant means (1) significant computer systems in use by FINOVA demonstrate
performance and functionality that is not materially affected by processing
dates on or after January 1, 2000, (2) customers and collateral included in
FINOVA's portfolio of business are year 2000 compliant, and (3) vendors of
services critical to FINOVA's business processes are year 2000 compliant.
Primary internal activities related to this issue are modifications to
existing computer programs and conversions to new programs. FINOVA has a
five-phase plan for addressing the year 2000 issues for its internal systems:
1) Identifying each area, function, and application that could be
materially affected by the change in century.
2) Determining the extent to which each area, function, or application
will be affected by the change in century and identifying the proper
course of action to eliminate material adverse effects.
3) Making the changes necessary to bring the system into year 2000
compliance.
4) Testing the integrated system.
5) Switching to year 2000 compliant applications.
Costs incurred to bring FINOVA's internal systems into year 2000
compliance and incremental costs of accelerating new equipment acquisitions are
being expensed as incurred and are not expected to have a material impact on
FINOVA's financial position. The necessary modifications to FINOVA's internal
systems are expected to be completed by the end of calendar 1998.
FINOVA is communicating with customers, software vendors, and others to
determine if their applications or services are year 2000 compliant and to
assess the potential impact on FINOVA related to this issue. FINOVA's aggregate
cost estimate does not include time and costs that may be incurred as a result
of the failure of any third parties to become year 2000 compliant.
While FINOVA believes all necessary work on internal systems will be
completed in a timely fashion, there can be no guarantee that all systems will
be compliant by the year 2000 within the estimated cost. Similarly, FINOVA
cannot assure that the systems of other companies and government agencies on
which FINOVA relies will be converted timely. Risks also include that third
parties may not have accurately assessed their state of readiness, and therefore
may have a material adverse effect on FINOVA's results of operations.
FINOVA has not currently established a formal year 2000 contingency plan
but will consider and, if necessary, address doing so as part of its year 2000
review process. FINOVA maintains and deploys contingency plans designed to
address various other potential business interruptions. In some respects,
8
<PAGE>
these plans address interruptions resulting from third parties' failure to be
year 2000 compliant, but the plans have not been updated to specifically address
the year 2000 issue.
RECENT DEVELOPMENT AND BUSINESS OUTLOOK
FINOVA continues to seek new business by emphasizing customer service,
providing competitive interest rates and focusing on selected market niches.
Additionally, FINOVA continues to evaluate potential acquisition opportunities
it believes are consistent with its business strategies.
During the third quarter of 1998, the global financial markets experienced
significant volatility as a result of the emerging market crisis in Russia,
continued concerns over Asia and volatility in other significant emerging
markets, e.g. Latin America. Due primarily to the financial crisis and overall
volatility in the general international financial markets, US Treasury rates
significantly declined as investors sought the safety of Treasury securities
over other instruments. As a result, credit spreads widened between US Treasury
securities and corporate bonds and other fixed income securities such as for the
CMBS market. FINOVA participates in the CMBS market through FRC and borrows in
the commercial debt markets. While referenced interest rates (such as U.S.
Treasuries or LIBOR) have declined, FINOVA along with other lenders, has had to
pay increased spreads over those referenced rates due to the uncertainty in the
financial markets.
FRC originates fixed-rate loans that it ultimately anticipates selling
through the CMBS market. Lenders such as FINOVA base loan spreads (premiums
charged to borrowers) on the prices they expect the loans to sell for in the
CMBS market. The greater the amount that loan spreads exceed CMBS spreads, the
greater the potential profit.
For FRC's fixed-rate loans, the risk is that interest rates will rise
before the loans are sold through the CMBS market. As rates rise, not only is
the value of the loans reduced, but the net yield also drops as the cost of
funding the loans held on book increases.
To hedge that risk, FINOVA has taken hedging positions to offset price
movements in the long position of the loan portfolio. As a result of this
strategy, declines in the value of the portfolio should produce equal increases
in the value of the hedged position or vice versa.
Problems occur when CMBS rates and Treasury rates do not move together.
When that happens, losses in the value of hedging instruments may exceed gains
in the market value of the underlying loans. The wider the spreads between
yields on CMBS and Treasury securities become, the more profits are squeezed.
As noted above, this anomaly occurred during 1998. In response to these
market conditions, FRC continues to evaluate various instruments in order to
achieve the most effective hedge. FRC has also re-priced business within its
backlog to reflect the greater spreads, although there can be no assurance that
future movements in the financial markets will not reduce spreads further. The
result of these two actions should help mitigate future volatility in
transactions within the CMBS market.
To provide liquidity, the Company has put into place committed programs to
successfully place FRC transactions which the Company can elect to use at its
discretion to help provide alternatives should turbulence continue in the
traditional CMBS market place. Along those lines, included in the third quarter
of 1998 was the sale of $146 million of loans for which the Company retained the
servicing rights and obligations and a subordinated interest.
On October 13, 1998, FINOVA consummated the acquisition of United Credit
Corporation, a New York-based provider of commercial financing to small and
midsize businesses, and its Patriot Funding Division. The addition formed a new
division named FINOVA Growth Finance, which provides collateral-based working
capital financing, primarily secured by accounts receivable. The new division
provides

financing ranging from $100,000 to $1 million to small and midsize businesses
with annual sales under $10 million. FINOVA anticipates that this new division
will serve a market segment of smaller, growth-oriented customers earlier in
their maturation cycle.
On October 28, 1998, FINOVA acquired Electronic Payment Systems, Inc.
(EPS), a commercial receivables servicing business headquartered in Salt Lake
City, Utah, to support the activities of its Realty Capital business.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities", effective for transactions entered into in
fiscal quarters of fiscal years that begin after June 15, 1999. This statement
establishes standards for the accounting and reporting for derivative
instruments and for hedging activities. The future effect on the Company's
financial position and the results of operations has not been determined.
