FIRST FIDELITY ACCEPTANCE CORP.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and,
therefore, do not include all information and footnotes necessary for
a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and
cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Except as disclosed herein, there has been no material
change in the information disclosed in the notes to financial
statements included in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1995. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. Operating results for the nine month period ended September
30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ended December 31, 1996.
B. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First
Fidelity Acceptance Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon
consolidation. "Cash reserve accounts, restricted" and "Due from
sales and securitizations of Autoloans" are owned by the subsidiaries
and are not available to creditors of the Company until disbursed by
the appropriate trustee to the subsidiary and then distributed as a
dividend by such subsidiary to the Company.
C. INCOME PER SHARE
Income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of common shares, preferred shares, stock options and
warrants outstanding during the period.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
COMPARISON OF THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
WITH THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
The Company's ability to sell and securitize Autoloans was impaired
during 1996 by the Borlaug legal proceedings until their settlement at the end
of May. The resolution enabled FFAC to enter into a relationship with a
financial institution to purchase Autoloans without default insurance coverage.
The cost of the transition from an insured to a non-insured basis has been
capitalized as a prepaid expense and is being amortized over a 5-year period.
Prior to 1996, a subsidiary of the Company sold Autoloans to
third-party warehouse investors pending securitization or sale to permanent
investors. Income was recognized at the time of the sale to the third-party
warehouse investors. During 1996, a different subsidiary of the Company
commenced warehousing the Autoloans through the issuance of trust certificates,
but does not recognize income until it repurchases the Autoloans from such
trusts, and sells them to third-party permanent investors as part of a
portfolio sale or securitization. Consequently, less income has been
recognized in 1996 than would have been recognized pursuant to the prior
third-party warehouse funding mechanisms.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The vast majority of the Company's expenses are incurred and paid between
the date of the Autoloan's purchase and the time of securitization. However,
the gain on Autoloan sale portion of the Company's revenue is recorded as
income in the period that the Autoloan is sold to a third-party, but is
received in the form of cash over the life of the related Autoloan.
If the Company sold its Autoloans for up-front cash, it would greatly
impair its profitability. In order to raise capital to fund growth, the
Company borrows from time to time supported by the cash flow from the amounts
due from sales and securitizations of Autoloans. In addition, it sells shares
of common and preferred stock through private placements.
