NOTE TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
GENERAL
The consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim
periods. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to
conform with current year presentation.
The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for a full year.
The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements included in the Registrant's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1993.
CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE
Effective at the beginning of 1994, the Registrant adopted the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" (FAS 115). The adoption of FAS 115
had no material effect on the Registrant's consolidated financial statements.
INVESTMENTS
The Registrant's investment portfolio consists of both debt and equity
securities. While it is the Registrant's intention to hold its debt securities
until maturity and its equity securities long-term, the Registrant may sell
certain of these securities in response to market conditions or business
requirements. Therefore, upon adoption of FAS 115, effective January 1, 1994,
the Registrant classified all of its investment portfolio as available for
sale. Following the reclassification, the carrying amount of all debt
securities then classified as available for sale was adjusted to fair value,
and the resulting unrealized gain of $16.5 million, net of applicable income
taxes, was recorded as an increase to the securities valuation adjustment
component of stockholder's equity. At January 1, 1994 and September 30, 1994,
the Registrant's consolidated stockholder's equity included net unrealized
investment portfolio gains of $48.5 million and $12.9 million, net of
applicable taxes, respectively.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1994 COMPARED
TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1993.
Income before income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 was
$194.0 million compared to $169.7 million for the nine months ended September
30, 1993, an increase of $24.3 million (14.3%). The increase resulted
primarily from: (i) an increase in the level of receivables outstanding as
average finance receivables were $5.564 billion for the first nine months of
1994 compared to $5.169 billion during the first nine months of 1993; (ii) a
decrease in the cost of borrowed funds to 6.46% for the first nine months of
1994 from 7.02% for the like period in 1993; (iii) a decrease in insurance
losses; (iv) a decrease in policy acquisition costs due to a reduction in
non-related insurance operation premiums earned; and (v) an increase in
investment income due to higher yields. This increase in income was partially
offset by: (i) an increase in the provision for losses associated with the
increase in finance receivables outstanding and (ii) a decline in yields on
finance receivables. Due to declines in the cost of borrowed funds in all of
the countries in which the Registrant operates, the Registrant lowered the rate
of interest it charged to customers on finance receivables. As a result,
interest income as a percent of average finance receivables (on an annualized
basis) was 18.45% for the first nine months of 1994 compared to 19.18% for the
like period in 1993.
Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 were $1,017.6 million
compared to $989.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1993. The
increase resulted primarily from : (i) an increase of approximately $59.3
million from the higher level of receivables outstanding and (ii) an increase
in investment income due to higher yields. These increases were largely offset
by: (i) a decrease of approximately $29.9 million from the decline in yields on
finance receivables and (ii) a reduction in non-related insurance operation
premiums earned.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1994 COMPARED
TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1993.
Income before income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 1994 was
$68.1 million compared to $58.6 million for the three months ended September
30, 1993, an increase of $9.5 million (16.2%). The increase resulted primarily
from: (i) an increase in the level of receivables outstanding; (ii) a decrease
in the cost of borrowed funds; and (iii) a decrease in policy acquisition
costs. This increase in income was partially offset by: (i) an increase in the
provision for losses associated with the increase in receivables outstanding
and (ii) a decline in yields on finance receivables.
Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1994 were $353.2 million
compared to $333.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 1993. This
increase resulted primarily from an increase of approximately $24.1 million
from the higher level of receivables outstanding, partially offset by a
decrease of approximately $11.2 from the decline in yields on finance
receivables.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Registrant utilizes a broad base of financial sources for its liquidity and
capital requirements. Cash is provided from both operations and several
different sources of borrowings, including unsecured borrowings under bank
lines of credit, the issuance of commercial paper and sales of medium and
long-term debt in the U.S. and foreign financial markets.
During the first nine months of 1994, the Registrant had $421.6 million of
interest rate exchange agreements go into effect. Of these, $150.0 million
expire in 1995 and had the effect of exchanging the indices used to determine
interest expense under certain variable rate borrowings at September 30, 1994
for the purpose of better matching the rate of interest incurred on the
Registrant's financing with the rate of interest earned on certain of the
Registrant's variable rate finance receivables. The remainder of the
agreements, which have a weighted average original term of 3.8 years and expire
through 1999, had the effect of fixing the rate of interest at approximately
7.0% on $271.6 million of variable rate borrowings at September 30, 1994.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Because the business of the Registrant involves the collection of
numerous accounts, the validity of liens, accident and other
damage or loss claims under many types of insurance, and
compliance with state and federal consumer laws, the Registrant
and its subsidiaries are plaintiffs and defendants in numerous
legal proceedings, including individual and class action
proceedings which seek compensatory, treble or punitive damages in
substantial amounts. It is the opinion of the Registrant's
management, based upon the advice of its counsel, that the
aggregate liability from pending or threatened litigation will not
have a material effect on the Registrant's net income or financial
condition.
ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES
Omitted in accordance with General Instruction H(2)(b).
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
Omitted in accordance with General Instruction H(2)(b).
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
