ITEL CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation: The accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements included in Itel Corporation's ("Itel") Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1993. The condensed consolidated financial
information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a
fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements for the
periods shown.
Principles of consolidation: The condensed consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of Itel and its majority owned subsidiaries (collectively
"the Company") after elimination of intercompany transactions. Minority
interests of $102.2 million at March 31, 1994 primarily relate to the 47%
public ownership in ANTEC Corporation ("ANTEC") and the 1% external ownership
interests in Railcar Trust No. 1992-1 (the "Trust").
Reclassifications: The 1993 consolidated financial statements and related
notes have been reclassified to reflect the 1994 presentation.
NOTE 2. DISCONTINUED AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
The finance business of Signal Capital Corporation ("Signal Capital") has been
included as assets held for sale since acquisition in 1988. The finance
business is being liquidated and no material amounts of new loans or
investments are being made by Signal Capital. Since the date of acquisition,
the portfolio has been reduced from $1.44 billion to $170 million at March 31,
1994. Proceeds were used to repay indebtedness.
NOTE 3. LOSS ON MARKETABLE EQUITY SECURITIES
In March 1994, the Company recorded a $5.2 million pre-tax loss on the sale of
its investment in Catellus Development Corporation ("Catellus"). Proceeds were
used to reduce indebtedness.
7
<PAGE> 8
NOTE 4. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On April 18, 1994, Itel announced its intention to sell in a public offering
(the "Offering") up to 4.0 million shares of common stock of ANTEC. As a
result of the Offering, Itel's ownership of ANTEC common stock would be reduced
from 53% to approximately 33% if the underwriters' overallotment option is
exercised.

<PAGE> 9
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FINANCIAL LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
LIQUIDATION OF SIGNAL CAPITAL: Signal Capital has been classified as assets
held for sale since its acquisition in 1988. The finance business is being
liquidated and no material amounts of new loans or investments are being made
by Signal Capital. Since the date of acquisition the portfolio has been
reduced from $1.44 billion to $170 million at March 31, 1994, including a
reduction of $5 million in 1994.
CASH FLOW: Consolidated net cash provided (used) by continuing operating
activities was ($12.9) million for the first quarter of 1994 compared to
$5.4 million for the same period in 1993. Cash provided (used) by continuing
operating activities decreased due primarily to increased working capital
investment resulting from increased sales volume at Anixter Inc. ("Anixter")
and ANTEC. Consolidated cash provided (used) for net investing activities was
$38.9 million for the first quarter of 1994 versus ($19.9) million for the same
period in 1993. Consolidated investing activities in 1994 primarily reflect
the sale of the Company's investment in Catellus offset slightly by
acquisitions and investments at ANTEC. The 1993 period reflects a $17 million
investment in Q-TEL S.A. de C.V. of Mexico ("Q-TEL"). Consolidated cash used
for net financing activities was ($36.7) million for the first quarter of 1994
in comparison to ($13.0) million for the first quarter of 1993. The
consolidated net financing activities in the 1994 period reflect significant
repayment of Corporate subordinated debt using proceeds from the sale of the
Company's investment in Catellus and funds from the Corporate Term Loan
obtained in December 1993. Cash from discontinued operations, net was $2.9
million for the first quarter of 1994 versus $25.3 million for the same period
in 1993. Cash from discontinued operations in both periods reflects cash
received principally from the reduction of Signal Capital assets which are held
for sale.
Based upon discussions with financial analysts and similar disclosures provided
by competitors of Itel's businesses, the Company considers operating income
before amortization of goodwill
9
<PAGE> 10
and operating income plus depreciation and amortization of goodwill ("cash
flow") to be meaningful and readily comparable measures of Itel's relative
performance. However, with the completion of the rail car transaction in 1992,
the ongoing fixed cash flow of Rail car leasing is available only to service
interest and principal on the debt of the Trust and Railcar Associates, L.P.
(the "Partnership"). Cash flow by the Company's major business segments is
presented in the following table.

</TABLE>
FINANCINGS: On March 11, 1994, the Company increased Anixter's secured
revolving line of credit to $345 million, lowered the interest rate spreads and
extended the expiration to 1997. The revolving line of credit is non-recourse
to Itel and may be extended for two additional one-year periods at the option
of the lenders.
DEBT MATURITIES AND REPAYMENTS: Current maturities of subsidiary non-recourse
debt of $68.7 million at March 31, 1994 represent senior debt related to the
Rail car leasing business to be serviced from Rail car leasing cash flow. In
the first quarter of 1994 and 1993, Rail retired at maturity approximately $33
million and $32 million of non-recourse debt, respectively.
10
<PAGE> 11
In the first quarter of 1994, the Company retired $70 million of the Corporate
Term Loan. This loan is secured by the Company's investments in the capital
stock of Anixter, ANTEC and Signal Capital and its common shares of Santa Fe
Energy Resources, Inc.
In the first quarter of 1994 and 1993, respectively, the Company retired
approximately $221 million and $75 million of the face value of subordinated
debt at Itel.
NET OPERATING LOSS CARRYFORWARDS: To the extent of certain taxable income
realized by the Company, liquidity is enhanced by potential tax benefits. As
of December 31, 1993, the Company had cumulative net operating loss ("NOL")
carryforwards for Federal income tax purposes of approximately $345 million
expiring principally in 1995 through 2007, and investment tax-credit ("ITC")
carryforwards of approximately $16 million expiring in 1994 through 2001.
Certain of these carryforwards have not been examined by the Internal Revenue
Service and, therefore, may be subject to adjustment. The availability of NOL
and ITC carryforwards to reduce the Company's future Federal income tax
liability is subject to various limitations under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended.
OTHER LIQUIDITY CONSIDERATIONS: Certain debt agreements entered into by Itel's
subsidiaries contain various restrictions including restrictions on payments to
Itel. Such restrictions have not had nor are expected to have an adverse
impact on Itel's ability to meet its cash obligations.
11
<PAGE> 12
At March 31, 1994, the market value of the Company's investment in marketable
equity securities available-for-sale was below cost by $41.5 million. In
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company's
investment in marketable equity securities available-for-sale has been
reflected at market value in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company
continuously evaluates the market value of its marketable securities held for
investment in relation to its historical cost to determine whether a decline in
market value is "other than temporary". If such decline in market value is
deemed to be other than temporary, the Company records such decline as a charge
against income.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES AND ACQUISITIONS
Consolidated capital expenditures were $4.4 million and $2.3 million for the
first quarter of 1994 and 1993, respectively. Also in 1994 and 1993, ANTEC's
acquisitions and investments in related businesses aggregated $6.2 million and
$1.1 million, respectively.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
On April 18, 1994, Itel announced its intention to sell in a public offering up
to 4.0 million shares of common stock of ANTEC. As a result of the Offering,
Itel's ownership of ANTEC common stock could be reduced from 53% to
approximately 33% if the underwriters' overallotment option is exercised. If
the Offering is completed, Itel will report ANTEC in its consolidated financial
statements as an equity investment.
12
<PAGE> 13
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1994: Income from continuing operations for the first
quarter of 1994 was $1.8 million compared with a loss of ($3.8) million in the
first quarter of 1993. Results in 1994 include a pre-tax loss of ($5.2)
million relating to the sale of the Company's investment in Catellus. Net
income (loss) was $1.8 million and ($5.1) million in the first quarter of 1994
and 1993, respectively.
The Company's consolidated revenues during the first quarter of 1994,
increased 25% to $538.8 million from $431.5 million in 1993. Anixter revenues
increased 22% to $362.8 million resulting from the continued growth of the U.S.
wiring systems business and continued penetration in the expansion countries.
ANTEC revenues rose 45% to $137.8 million in the first quarter of 1994 compared
to the same three months of 1993 due to increased demand for its fiber optic
and high bandwidth products. Rail car leasing results are essentially fixed.
The Company's consolidated operating income, including Rail car leasing,
increased 23% to $45.9 million from $37.2 million in the first quarter of 1993
and consolidated operating income before amortization of goodwill increased 21%
to $51.3 million from $42.5 million in the first quarter of 1993. Anixter
operating income before amortization of goodwill increased 22% to $16.3 million
from $13.4 million due primarily to significantly improved volume and earnings
at U.S. and Canada Distribution. ANTEC's operating earnings before
amortization of goodwill nearly doubled to $10.5 million from $5.4 million in
the first quarter of 1993 reflecting significant sales increases in its fiber
optic and high bandwidth products.
13
<PAGE> 14
Consolidated net interest expense and other for the first quarter declined to
$32.5 million from $39.3 million in 1993 due primarily to the use of proceeds
from the continued monetization of Itel's non-core assets to significantly
reduce high-cost subordinated debt.
