              Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                     (Dollar Amounts in Millions)
     
     1.  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have
     been prepared by Caterpillar Financial Services Corporation (the
     "Company") pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
     Exchange Commission.  Although the Company believes the disclosures are
     adequate, it is suggested that these financial statements be read in
     conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto
     presented in the Company's 1993 Annual Report and the Company's Annual
     Report on Form 10-K.  Unless the context otherwise requires, the term
     "Company" includes subsidiary companies.
     
         The information furnished reflects, in the opinion of management,
     all adjustments, which include normal and recurring accruals, necessary
     for a fair presentation of the consolidated statements of financial
     position, income, and cash flows for the periods presented.  The results
     for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
     expected for the year.
     
         Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been
     reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
     
     2.  Income on financing leases, installment sale contracts, and customer
     and dealer loans (retail finance income) is recognized over the term of
     the contract at a constant rate of return on the scheduled uncollected
     principal balance.  Income on dealer floor planning and rental fleet
     financing (wholesale finance income) is recognized based on the daily
     balance of wholesale receivables outstanding and the applicable
     effective interest rate.  Income on operating leases (rental income) is
     reported over the life of the operating lease in the period earned. 
     Loan origination fees are amortized to finance income using the interest
     method over the contractual lives of the finance receivables. 
     Commitment fees are amortized to other income using the straight-line
     method over the commitment period.  
     
     3.  The Company has a tax sharing agreement with Caterpillar Inc.
     ("Caterpillar") in which the Company and Caterpillar agree, among other
     things, to collect from or pay to the Company its allocated share of any
     consolidated U.S. income tax liability or credit applicable to any
     period for which the Company is included as a member of the consolidated
     group.  Similar agreements exist between Caterpillar Financial Australia
     Limited and Caterpillar of Australia Ltd. with respect to taxes payable
     in Australia, and between the Company and Caterpillar with respect to
     taxes payable in Germany.
     
     4.  During the first six months of 1994, the Company publicly issued
     $538.5 million of medium-term notes.  The notes are offered on a
     continuous basis through agents and have maturities ranging from nine
     months to 15 years.  Interest rates on fixed-rate medium-term notes are
     established by the Company as of the date of issuance.  Interest rates
     on floating-rate medium-term notes are based on various indices.  The
     weighted average interest rate on all outstanding medium-term notes was
     5.9% at June 30, 1994.  Long-term debt outstanding at June 30, 1994,
     matures as follows:
     
                             1994         $  245.8
                             1995            706.4
                             1996            404.8
                             1997            302.7
                             1998            240.3
                             1999            123.7
                          Thereafter         179.2
                             Total        $2,202.9     
                               
     
     
     
     
     
     Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
             Results of Operations
     
     A.  Consolidated Results of Operations
     
         Three Months Ended June 30, 1994 vs. Three Months Ended June 30, 
         1993
     
         Total revenues for the second quarter of 1994 were $108.9 million, a
     20% increase over 1993 second quarter revenues of $90.4 million.  The
     increase in revenues was primarily the result of earnings from the
     larger portfolio which increased to $3,874.5 million at June 30, 1994
     from $3,097.2 million at June 30, 1993.
       
         The company financed new retail business transactions totaling
     $540.7 million during the second quarter of 1994 compared with $456.8
     million during the second quarter of 1993.  New retail financing in the
     second quarter was higher than 1993 levels due to increased machine and
     engine financing.  The Company had wholesale financing during the second
     quarter of 1994 of $272.0 million, compared with $67.3 million for the
     second quarter of 1993.  The increase was primarily due to a program
     developed to support Caterpillar dealer rental fleets in the United
     States.
     
         The annualized interest rate on finance receivables (computed by
     dividing annualized finance income by the average monthly finance
     receivable balances) was 8.6% for the second quarter of 1994 compared
     with 9.3% for the second quarter of 1993.  Tax benefits associated with
     governmental lease-purchase contracts and a portion of tax benefits
     associated with long-term tax-oriented leases are not reflected in such
     annualized interest rates.  The decrease in the annualized interest rate
     reflected a decrease in interest rates charged to customers.
     
         Other income of $5.4 million for the second quarter of 1994 included
     fees, gains on sales of equipment returned from lease, gain on sale of
     receivables (see Capital Resources and Liquidity section), and other
     miscellaneous income.  The increase of $0.7 million during the second
     quarter of 1994, as compared with the same period in 1993, was primarily
     due to the gain on receivables sold, partially offset by a lower amount
     of fees collected and earned.
     
         Second quarter interest expense of $51.7 million was $9.0 million
     higher than 1993 second quarter interest expense due to increased
     borrowings to support the larger portfolio.  This increase was partially
     offset by lower borrowing rates as the average cost of borrowed funds
     was 6.1% for the second quarter of 1994, compared with 6.6% for the
     second quarter of 1993.                     
                  
         Depreciation expense for the second quarter of 1994 was $22.7
     million, $4.9 million higher than the same period in 1993.  This
     increase resulted from additional equipment on operating leases which,
     computed as a monthly average balance, increased 21.8%.
     
         General, operating, and administrative expenses increased $1.2
     million during the second quarter of 1994 compared with the same period
     last year.  This increase resulted primarily from staff-related and
     other expenses required for expansion into Europe and to service the
     larger portfolio.  The Company's full-time employment increased from 347
     at June 30, 1993 to 390 at June 30, 1994.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
         Provision for credit losses during the second quarter of 1994 was
     $5.7 million, compared with $5.2 million during the second quarter last
     year, reflecting the increased levels of new retail business. 
     Receivables, net of recoveries, of $3.2 million were written off against
     the allowance for credit losses during the second quarter of 1994
     compared with $4.9 million during the second quarter of 1993. 
     Receivables past due over 30 days were 3.2% of total receivables at June
     30, 1994, compared with 1.9% at June 30, 1993. Past due percentages for
     the second quarter of 1994 increased primarily in the fishing and coal
     mining industries.  The allowance for credit losses is monitored to
     provide for an amount which, in management's judgment, will be adequate
     to cover uncollectible receivables.  At June 30, 1994, the allowance for
     credit losses was $43.5 million which was 1.2% of finance receivables,
     net of unearned income, compared with $38.6 million and 1.4% at June 30,
     1993, respectively.
     
         Other expense of $4.7 million for the second quarter of 1994
     primarily resulted from recording unrealized losses on interest rate
     caps and swaptions written by the Company.
     
         The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of 1994 and the
     second quarter of 1993 was 36%.  
           
         Net income for the second quarter of 1994 was $8.5 million, $0.9
     million below 1993 second quarter net income of $9.4 million.  The
     decrease in net income was primarily the result of recording unrealized
     losses on the written cap and swaption agreements, net of tax, of $2.8
     million.  This decrease was almost entirely offset by increased revenues
     from a larger portfolio.
     
         Six Months Ended June 30, 1994 vs. Six Months Ended June 30, 1993
     
         Total revenues for the first half of 1994 were $211.0 million, a 19%
     increase over the revenues for the first half of 1993 of $177.0 million. 
     The increase in revenues was primarily the result of earnings from the
     larger portfolio.
     
         The Company financed new retail business transactions totaling
     $981.9 million during the first half of 1994 compared with $773.7
     million during the first half of 1993.  New retail financing in the
     first half of the year was higher than 1993 levels due to increased
     machine financing in Europe and the United States and increased engine
     financing in the United States.  The Company had wholesale financing
     during the first half of 1994 of $354.3 million compared with $115.7
     million for the first half of 1993.  The increase was primarily due to a
     program developed to support Caterpillar dealer rental fleets in the
     United States.
     
         The annualized interest rate on finance receivables (computed by
     dividing annualized finance income by the average monthly finance
     receivable balances) was 8.7% for the first half of 1994 compared with
     9.3% for the first half of 1993.  Tax benefits associated with
     governmental lease purchase contracts and a portion of tax benefits
     associated with long-term tax-oriented leases are not reflected in such
     annualized interest rates.  The decrease in the annualized interest rate
     reflected a decrease in interest rates charged to customers.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
         Other income of $10.0 million for the first half of 1994 included
     fees, gains on sales of equipment returned from lease, gain on sale of 
     receivables, and other miscellaneous income.  The increase of $2.2
     million during the first six months of 1994, as compared with the same
     period in 1993, was primarily due to the gain on sale of receivables, a
     higher amount of gains on sales of equipment returned from lease, and a
     higher amount of fees collected and earned.
     
         Interest expense for the first half of 1994 was $97.7 million, $12.7
     million higher than the first six months of 1993 due to increased
     borrowings to support the larger portfolio.  This increase was partially
     offset by lower borrowing rates as the average cost of borrowed funds
     was 6.1% for the first half of 1994 compared with 6.8% in 1993.
     
         Depreciation expense increased from $34.2 million for the first half
     of 1993 to $44.6 million for the first half of 1994 due to the increase
     in equipment on operating leases which, computed as a monthly average
     balance, increased 22.8%.
     
         General, operating, and administrative expenses for the first six
     months of 1994 increased $2.6 million over the same period last year
     primarily due to staff-related and other expenses required for expansion
     into Europe and to service the larger portfolio.
     
         Provision for credit losses during the first six months of 1994
     increased from $8.5 million in the first half of 1993 to $10.8 million
     in the first half of 1994.  This increase reflected increased levels of
     new retail business and a higher provision taken for the U.S. Company. 
     Receivables, net of recoveries, of $6.5 million were written off against
     the allowance for credit losses during the first half of 1994 compared
     with $6.1 million during the first half of 1993.
     
         Other expense of $13.6 million for the first half of 1994 primarily
     resulted from recording unrealized losses on interest rate caps and
     swaptions written by the Company.
      
         The effective income tax rate for the first half of 1994 and the
     first half of 1993 was 36%.  
     
         Net income for the first half of 1994 was $14.9 million compared
     with $19.4 million in the first half of 1993.  The decrease in net
     income primarily resulted from the recording of unrealized losses on the
     written cap and swaption agreements, net of tax, of $8.1 million.  This
     decrease was partially offset by increased revenues from a larger
     portfolio.  
     
      B.  Capital Resources and Liquidity 
     
         The Company's operations were primarily funded with a combination of
     medium-term notes, commercial paper, bank borrowings, asset-backed
     securities, additional equity capital of $25.0 million invested by
     Caterpillar, and retained earnings.  The ratio of debt to equity at June
     30, 1994 and at December 31, 1993 was 7.3 to 1.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
         On June 30, 1994, the Company completed its first asset-backed
     securitization which was comprised of $242.5 million of fixed-rate
     installment sale contracts.  The proceeds were used to reduce existing
     debt.  The Company recognized a $1.3 million gain on this transaction in
     the second quarter of 1994 and will receive fees in future months for
     servicing these sold receivables.
     
         Total debt outstanding as of June 30, 1994 was $3,371.2 million, an
     increase of $330.1 million over that at December 31, 1993, and was
     primarily comprised of $2,148.6 million of medium-term notes, $561.0
     million of commercial paper, and $451.4 million of notes payable to
     banks.  The increase in debt and the funds provided by Caterpillar and
     by operations were used to finance the increase in the portfolio.
     
         At June 30, 1994, the Company had available a total of $1,242.5
     million of short-term credit lines which expire at various dates in 1994
     and the first half of 1995, and $34.7 million of long-term credit lines
     which expire at various dates from March 1996 to May 1996.  These credit
     lines are with a number of banks and are considered support for the
     Company's outstanding commercial paper, commercial paper guarantees, the
     discounting of bank and trade bills, and bank borrowings at various
     interest rates.  At June 30, 1994, there were $434.3 million of these
     lines utilized for bank borrowings in Australia and Europe.
     
         The Company also has a $445.0 million revolving credit agreement
     with a group of banks.  This agreement is also considered support for
     the Company's outstanding commercial paper and commercial paper
     guarantees.  The agreement terminates in 1996 and provides for
     borrowings at interest rates which vary according to LIBOR or other
     short-term interest rates.  At June 30, 1994, there were no borrowings
     under this agreement.
     
         In connection with its match funding objectives, the Company
     utilizes a variety of interest rate contracts including interest rate
     swap and cap agreements, options, and forward rate agreements.  These
     agreements are entered into with major financial institutions to manage
     the Company's exposure to changes in interest rates. 
     
         As of June 30, 1994, there were outstanding swap, sold (written)
     cap, and purchased cap agreements with notional amounts totaling
     $1,935.0 million, $436.2 million, and $200.0 million, respectively. 
     These agreements have terms generally ranging up to five years, which
     effectively change $1,073.3 million of floating rate debt to fixed rate
     debt, $786.0 million of fixed rate debt to floating rate debt, and
     $712.0 million of floating rate debt to floating rate debt having
     different conditions.  The Company also has future swaps having a total
     notional amount of $110.8 million, which effectively change $62.8
     million of floating rate debt to fixed rate debt and $48.0 million of
     fixed rate debt to floating rate debt.  The first of these future swap
     agreements begins in September 1994.  These future agreements generally
     have maturities ranging up to four years.  In connection with swap
     agreements having a total notional amount of $40.0 million, the Company
     had outstanding written option agreements (swaptions) which would allow
     the counterparty to enter into swap agreements at some future date or
     alter the conditions of certain swap agreements.  The Company has marked
     to market the written cap and swaption agreements which resulted in a
     before-tax charge of $13.2 million for unrealized losses for the first
     six months of 1994.  
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
         The Company is continuing to manage the written caps and swaptions
     on an economic basis.  This will lead to future mark-to-market gains or
     losses.  It is the intention of the Company that, going forward, the use
     of interest rate contracts will be limited to those that qualify for
     hedge accounting treatment, thereby minimizing fluctuations to the
     earnings of the Company created by mark-to-market accounting treatment.
     
         The Company's outstanding forward rate agreements totaled $150.2
     million at the end of the second quarter of 1994.  These agreements have
     terms generally ranging up to six months.  
     
         The Company has entered into forward exchange contracts to hedge its
     U.S. dollar denominated obligations in Australia against currency
     fluctuations.  At June 30, 1994, the outstanding forward exchange
     contracts totaled $146.4 million.
     
         To supplement external debt financing sources, the Company has
     variable amount lending agreements with Caterpillar (including one of
     its subsidiaries).  Under these agreements, which may be amended from
     time to time, the Company may borrow up to $106.5 million from
     Caterpillar, and Caterpillar may borrow up to $86.5 million from the
     Company.  All of the variable amount lending agreements are effective
     for indefinite terms and may be terminated by either party upon 30 days'
     notice.  At June 30, 1994, December 31, 1993, and June 30, 1993, the
     Company had no outstanding borrowings or loans receivable under these
     agreements.

               A report on Form 8-K dated July 21, 1994, was filed by the
               Company, in which the Company reported that it had executed a
