MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain of the statements in this discussion, as well as other forward-
looking statements within this document, contain estimates and projections of
cash flows and debt financing to support future capital requirements. While
these forward-looking statements are made in good faith, future operating,
market competitive, economic and other conditions and events could cause actual
results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company borrows funds for the purchase of flight equipment, including
funds for progress payments during the construction phase from various sources,
principally on an unsecured basis. The Company's debt financing was comprised of
the following at the following dates:

Composite interest rate on fixed rate 6.00% 6.06%
debt
Bank prime rate 9.00% 8.50%
</TABLE>
The interest on substantially all of the public debt (exclusive of the
commercial paper) is fixed for the terms of the notes. The Company has committed
revolving loans and lines of credit with 53 banks aggregating $2.9 billion and
an uncommitted line of credit with one bank for $30 million. These revolving
loans and lines of credit principally provide for interest rates that vary
according to the pricing option in effect at the time of borrowing. Pricing
options include prime, a range from .22% over LIBOR to .32% over LIBOR based
upon utilization, or a rate determined by a competitive bid process with the
banks. The revolving loans and lines of credit are subject to facility fees of
up to .08% of amounts available. Such financing is used primarily as backup for
the Company's Commercial Paper Program.
The Company has an effective shelf registration with respect to $2.0
-8-
<PAGE> 9
billion of debt securities, under which $275 million of notes were sold through
March 31, 2000. Additionally, a $750 million Medium-Term Note Program has been
designated under the shelf registration, under which $105 million of notes have
been sold through March 31, 2000.
The Company has a Euro denominated Medium-Term Note Program for $2.0
billion, under which $771 million in notes were sold through March 31, 2000. The
Company has hedged the notes through operating lease payments or through swaps.
The Company has Export Credit Lease financings which provide ten year,
amortizing loans in the form of capital lease obligations. The interest rate on
62.5% of the original financing available is 6.55%, and the interest rate on
22.5% of the original financing available is fixed at rates varying between
6.18% and 6.89%. These two tranches are guaranteed by various European Export
Credit Agencies. The remaining 15% of the original financing available provides
for LIBOR based pricing.
The Company has an Export Credit Facility, for up to a maximum of $4.3
billion, for approximately 75 aircraft to be delivered from 1999 through 2001.
The Company has the right, but is not required, to use the facility to fund 85%
of each aircraft's purchase price. This facility is guaranteed by various
European Export Credit Agencies. The interest rate varies from 5.753% to 5.898%
depending on the delivery date of the aircraft. Through March 31, 2000, the
Company had borrowed $1.5 billion under this facility.
The Company believes that the combination of internally generated funds and
debt financing currently available to the Company will allow the Company to meet
its capital requirements for at least the next 12 months.
VALUE AT RISK
Measuring potential losses in fair values has recently become the focus of
risk management efforts by many companies. Such measurements are performed
through the application of various statistical techniques. One such technique is
Value at Risk (VaR), a summary statistical measure that uses historical interest
rates and estimates the volatility and correlation of these rates to calculate
the maximum loss that could occur over a defined period of time given a certain
probability.
ILFC believes that statistical models alone do not provide a reliable
method of monitoring and controlling market risk. While VaR models are
relatively sophisticated, the quantitative market risk information generated is
limited by the assumptions and parameters established in creating the related
models. Therefore, such models are tools and do not substitute for the
experience or judgement of senior management.
ILFC is exposed to market risk and the risk of loss of fair value resulting
from adverse fluctuations in interest rates. ILFC statistically measured the
loss of fair value through the application of a VaR model at December 31, 1999
and March 31, 2000. In this analysis the net fair value of ILFC was determined
using the financial instrument assets, which included the tax adjusted future
flight equipment lease revenue, and the financial instrument liabilities, which
included the future servicing of the current debt. The estimated impact of the
current derivative positions was also taken into account.
ILFC calculated the VaR with respect to the net fair value using the
variance-covariance (delta-normal) methodology. This calculation also used daily
historical interest rates for the two years ending December 31, 1999 and monthly
historical interest rates for the twenty years ending March 31, 2000. The VaR
model estimated the volatility of each of these interest rates and the
correlation among them. The yield curve was constructed using eleven key points
on the curve to model possible curve movements. Thus, the VaR measured the
sensitivity of the assets and liabilities to the calculated interest rate
exposures. These sensitivities were then applied
-9-
<PAGE> 10
to a database, which contained the historical ranges of movements in interest
rates and the correlation among them. The results were aggregated to provide a
single amount that depicts the maximum potential loss in fair value of a
confidence level of 95 percent for a time period of one month. As of December
31, 1999 and March 1, 2000, the VaR of ILFC with respect to its aforementioned
net fair value was $50 million and $17 million respectively.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Three months ended March 31, 2000 versus 1999.
The 8.8% increase in revenues from the rentals of flight equipment, from
$488.8 million in 1999 to $531.8 million in 2000, is due to a 3.5% increase in
the number of aircraft available for operating lease from 367 at March 31, 1999
to 380 at March 31, 2000. Additionally, the cost of the leased fleet, which
includes aircraft subject to sale-lease back transactions from which rental
income is earned, increased 6.2% from $19.4 billion in 1999 to $20.6 billion in
2000.
In addition to its leasing operations, the Company engages in the marketing
of flight equipment at the end of, or during, the lease term, as well as the
sales of flight equipment on a principal and commission basis. Revenue from
flight equipment marketing decreased from $10.6 million in 1999 to $7.2 million
in 2000 as a result of the type and the number of the flight equipment marketed
in each period. Two aircraft were sold in the first quarter of 1999 compared to
no aircraft in the first quarter of 2000, while the Company sold no engines in
the first quarter of 1999 compared to three engines in the first quarter of
2000.
Interest expense increased from $157.7 million in 1999 to $174.2 million in
2000 as a result of an increase in interest rates and an increase in total debt
outstanding, excluding the effect of debt discount, from $11.8 billion in 1999
to $12.4 billion in 2000. The Company's composite borrowing rate fluctuated as
follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
2000 1999
------- -------
<S> <C> <C>
Beginning of Quarter 6.14% 6.03%
End of Quarter 6.12% 5.90%
Average 6.13% 5.97%
</TABLE>
Depreciation of flight equipment increased from $150.3 million in 1999 to
$163.9 million in 2000 due to the increased cost of the fleet.
Rent expense increased from $31.8 million in 1999 to $34.3 million in 2000
due to an increase in the lease rates for 19 aircraft subject to sale-lease
back transactions. Lease rates increased mainly as a result of the increased
interest rates affecting the floating interest component of the lease rates.
Provision for overhauls increased from $20.4 million in 1999 to $20.8
million in 2000 due to an increase in the number of aircraft on which the
Company collects overhaul payments. An increase or decrease in the number of
aircraft on which the Company collects overhaul payments will result in a
corresponding increase or decrease in the aggregate number of hours flown for
which overhaul reserves are provided.
