PART I Item 1. Business The registrant, Navistar Financial Corporation ("NFC"), was incorporated in Delaware in 1949 and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of International Truck and Engine Corporation ("International"). As used herein, the "Corporation" refers to Navistar Financial Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries unless the context otherwise requires. The Corporation is a commercial financing organization that provides wholesale, retail and lease financing in the United States for sales of new and used trucks sold by International and International's dealers. The Corporation also finances wholesale accounts and selected retail accounts receivable of International. Sales of new products (including trailers) of other manufacturers are also financed regardless of whether designed or customarily sold for use with International's truck products. On November 30, 2000, the Corporation's Board of Directors approved management's plan for the sale of Harco National Insurance Company ("Harco"), the wholly-owned insurance subsidiary. Harco provides commercial physical damage and liability insurance coverage to International's dealers and retail customers, and to the general public through an independent insurance agency system. As a result of this plan of disposal, the previously reported financial statements have been restated and the results of operations of Harco have been reported as Discontinued Operations. Item 2. Properties The Corporation's properties principally consist of office equipment and leased office space in Rolling Meadows, Illinois; Duluth, Georgia and Plano, Texas. The office equipment owned and in use by the Corporation is not significant in relation to the total assets of the Corporation. Item 3. Legal Proceedings There were no material pending legal proceedings other than ordinary, routine litigation incidental to the business of the Corporation. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders Intentionally omitted. See the index page of this Report for explanation. PART II Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters See Note 12 to Consolidated Financial Statements. Item 6. Selected Financial Data Intentionally omitted. See the index page of this Report for explanation. 1 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Certain statements under this caption, which involve risks and uncertainties, constitute "forward-looking statements" under the Securities Reform Act. Navistar Financial Corporation's actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in such forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, those discussed under the headings "Business Outlook" and "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk." Financing Volume Customer demand for Class 5 through 8 trucks in fiscal 2000 was 6% lower than 1999 and 12% higher than 1998. High liquidity in the commercial financing markets continued to provide the Corporation's customers with other financing alternatives. Financing support provided to retail customers over the last three years was as follows: 2000 1999 1998 ---- ---- ---- Retail and Lease Financing: ($ millions) Finance market share of new International trucks sold in the U.S. 16.4% 16.4% 16.0% Purchases of receivables and equipment leased to others $1,475 $1,526 $1,397 Serviced retail notes and lease financing balances (including sold notes) at October 31 $3,296 $3,003 $2,579 During fiscal year 2000, the Corporation maintained a 16.4% finance market share of new International trucks sold in the U.S. The purchase of receivables and equipment leased to others declined 3% from 1999 levels primarily due to lower industry demand. During fiscal 2000 the serviced portfolio increased 10% to $3.3 billion. Purchases of receivables and equipment leased to others in 1999 grew 9% above 1998 as a result of the higher finance market share and truck industry demand. Financing support provided to International's dealers over the last three years was as follows: 2000 1999 1998 ---- ---- ---- Wholesale Financing: ($ millions) Percent of wholesale financing of new International trucks sold to International's dealers in the U.S. 96% 96% 95% Purchases of receivables $4,119 $4,188 $3,813 Serviced wholesale note balances (including sold notes) at October 31 $1,115 $1,226 $1,039 2 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Financing Volume (continued) In spite of the strong liquidity in the commercial financing market, the Corporation's finance percentage of new International trucks sold to International's dealers remained at 96% in 2000. The volume of receivables purchased in 2000 was 2% lower than 1999 as industry demand declined during the last half of fiscal year 2000. Receivables purchased increased 10% in 1999 from 1998 levels as dealers increased inventory levels in response to higher demand. Results from Continuing Operations Results from continuing operations over the last three years were as follows: 2000 1999 1998 ---- ---- ---- ($ millions) Revenue $311 $284 $234 Cost of borrowing 110 95 88 Income before taxes 92 96 79 Net income 56 59 49 Return on average equity 18.9% 21.0% 17.1% The Corporation's return on average equity was 18.9% in 2000, compared with 21.0% and 17.1% in 1999 and 1998, respectively. The decrease from 1999 was due primarily to lower gains on sales of retail note receivables and higher losses on retail receivables, offset, in part, by higher average finance receivable balances. The increase in 1999 over 1998 was due primarily to higher finance receivable balances, resulting from an increase in International's sales, and a higher level of average outstanding accounts payable to affiliates which proportionately lowered debt levels and interest expense. This was offset, in part, by a higher provision for losses, higher costs to service the larger portfolio, and the competitive commercial financing market which continued to put pressure on retail and wholesale finance margins. Retail note financing revenue for 2000 was $79 million compared with $85 million and $79 million in 1999 and 1998, respectively. The decrease in 2000 is primarily the result of lower gains on the sale of retail note receivables. Gains on the sales of retail note receivables were $3 million, $12 million and $15 million in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The lower gains reflect lower retail note margins and increased funding rates incurred by the Corporation in the asset-backed market. 3 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Results from Continuing Operations (continued) Lease financing revenue for 2000 was $94 million compared with $76 million and $57 million in 1999 and 1998, respectively. Included in lease financing revenue is operating lease revenue of $75 million, $62 million and $46 million in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The higher operating lease revenue is the result of an increase in vehicles under operating leases due to a market shift toward lease financing. In fiscal 2000 wholesale note revenue increased 3% to $64 million compared to 1999, primarily as a result of the higher level of wholesale financing activity and an increase in the average prime interest rate. Wholesale note revenue increased 45% in 1999 to $63 million as a result of the higher level of wholesale financing activity, offset in part by lower yields in response to the lower average prime interest rate. Retail and wholesale account revenue for 2000 was $43 million compared with $36 million and $33 million in 1999 and 1998, respectively. The increase is primarily the result of higher average balances and an increase in the average prime interest rate. Servicing fee income for 2000 was $31 million compared with $24 million and $22 million in 1999 and 1998, respectively. The increase was primarily the result of higher average sold receivable balances. Borrowing costs increased 16% in 2000 to $110 million from $95 million in 1999 primarily due to higher average receivable funding requirements and higher average interest rates. Accounts payable to affiliates reduced debt levels and resulted in a reduction in borrowing costs of $16 million and $13 million for fiscal years ending 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Corporation's weighted average interest rate on all debt was 6.4% in 2000, 5.6% in 1999 and 6.4% in 1998. The increase in the Corporation's weighted average interest rate is primarily a result of the increase in market interest rates. Borrowing costs increased 7% in 1999 to $95 million from $88 million in 1998 primarily due to higher average receivable funding requirements. The ratio of debt to equity was 6.2:1, 6.1:1, and 5.8:1 at October 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The provision for losses on receivables totaled $12 million in 2000 compared with $6 million in 1999 and $1 million in 1998. The increase in 2000 compared to 1999 is primarily due to an increase in repossession frequency and pricing pressure in the used truck market. Notes and account write-offs, net of recoveries, including sold notes, were $12 million in 2000, $5 million in 1999 and less than one million in 1998. The Corporation's allowance for losses as a percentage of serviced finance receivables was .54%, .55% and .64% at October 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Depreciation and other expenses in 2000 increased to $55 million from $44 million in 1999 and $30 million in 1998. The increase is primarily the result of a larger investment in equipment under operating leases. 4 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Results from Discontinued Operations On November 30, 2000, the Corporation's Board of Directors approved management's plan for the sale of Harco National Insurance Company ("Harco"), the wholly-owned insurance subsidiary. Harco provides commercial physical damage and liability insurance coverage to International's dealers and retail customers, and to the general public through an independent insurance agency system. As a result of this plan of disposal, the previously reported financial statements have been restated and the results of operations of Harco have been reported as Discontinued Operations. The pretax loss on disposal of Harco is estimated to be approximately $17 million and includes the estimated loss on sale of $12 million, approximately $4 million of severance and other exit costs, and approximately $1 million of curtailment loss associated with the related future reduction of employees from the Corporation's postretirement benefit plans. The anticipated future results of operations of Harco through the date of disposition is not anticipated to be material. The loss on disposal is reflected net of a deferred tax benefit of approximately $6 million in the Statement of Consolidated Financial Condition. Revenues of Harco were $56 million, $44 million and $42 million for fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Liquidity and Funds Management The Corporation has traditionally obtained the funds to provide financing to International's dealers and retail customers from sales of receivables, commercial paper, short and long-term bank borrowings, medium and long-term debt and equity capital. The Corporation's current debt ratings have made sales of finance receivables the most economical source of funding. In February 2000, Standard and Poors raised the Corporation's senior debt ratings from BB+ to BBB-, while the subordinated debt ratings were also raised from BB- to BB+. In May 1999, Moody's and Duff and Phelps raised the Corporation's senior debt ratings from Ba1 and BBB- to Baa3 and BBB, respectively, while also raising the subordinated debt ratings from Ba3 and BB+ to Ba2 and BBB-, respectively. Operations used $322 million of cash in 2000 primarily as a result of the decrease of $441 million in accounts payable to affiliates. To fund the cash used for operations, investing and finance activities provided $324 million in cash during this period primarily as a result of the sale of retail and wholesale notes and proceeds from long term debt, partially offset by the purchases of retail notes and lease receivables. See also the "Statements of Consolidated Cash Flow" on page 14. 5 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Liquidity and Funds Management (continued) Over the last three years, operations provided an aggregate of $411 million in cash, and proceeds from the sale of retail receivables totaled $3,102 million. These amounts were used principally to fund the purchase of finance receivables and equipment leased to others of $4,062, net of principal collections on the receivables, and to pay dividends of $140 million. Receivable sales were a significant source of funding in 2000, 1999 and 1998. Through the asset-backed public market and private placement sales, the Corporation has been able to fund fixed rate retail note receivables at rates offered to companies with higher investment grade ratings. During fiscal 2000, in two separate sales, the Corporation sold a total of $1,008 million of retail notes, net of unearned finance income, through Navistar Financial Retail Receivables Corporation ("NFRRC"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation. The Corporation sold $533 million of retail notes in November 1999 to two multi-seller asset-backed commercial paper conduits sponsored by a major financial institution and $475 million of retail notes in March 2000 to an owner trust which, in turn, sold notes to investors. Aggregate gains of $3 million were recognized on the sales. During fiscal 1999, in two separate sales, the Corporation sold a total of $1,260 million of retail notes, net of unearned finance income, through NFRRC. The Corporation sold $545 million of retail notes in November 1998 to a multi-seller asset-backed commercial paper conduit sponsored by a major financial institution and $715 million of retail notes in June 1999 to an owner trust which, in turn, issued securities which were sold to investors. Aggregate gains of $12 million were recognized on the sales. During fiscal 1998, the Corporation sold a total of $1,001 million of retail notes, net of unearned finance income, through NFRRC, to owner trusts, which in turn, issued securities which were sold to investors. Aggregate gains of $15 million were recognized on the sales. As of October 31, 2000, the aggregate shelf registration available to NFRRC for issuance of asset-backed securities is $1,783 million. In November 2000, the Corporation sold $765 million of retail notes, net of unearned finance income, through NFRRC to an owner trust which, in turn, issued securities which were sold to investors. A $5 million gain was recognized on this sale in November 2000. At October 31, 2000, Navistar Financial Securities Corporation ("NFSC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation, had in place a revolving wholesale note trust that funded $883 million of eligible wholesale notes. During fiscal 2000, NFSC issued a $212 million tranche of investor certificates which mature in June 2005 and sold variable funding certificates with an initial balance of $300 million, to a conduit sponsored by a major financial institution. The maximum funding capacity of the variable funding certificates was reduced to $200 million in July 2000. As of October 31, 2000 the trust was comprised of three $200 million tranches of investor certificates maturing in 2003, 2004 and 2008, a $212 million tranche of investor certificates maturing in 2005 and variable funding certificates with a balance of $125 million maturing in 2001. 6 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Liquidity and Funds Management (continued) During fiscal 2000, the Corporation established Truck Retail Accounts Corporation ("TRAC"), a special purpose, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation, for the purpose of securitizing retail accounts receivable. At October 31, 2000, TRAC had in place a revolving retail account conduit that provides for the funding of $100 million of eligible retail accounts. As of October 31, 2000 the Corporation had utilized $80 million of this facility. The facility expires in 2001. In November 2000, the Corporation established Truck Engine Receivables Financing Corporation ("TERFCO"), a special purpose, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation, for the purpose of securitizing engine accounts receivable. On November 21, 2000, the Corporation securitized all of its unsecured trade receivables generated by the sale of diesel engines and engine service parts from International to Ford. The transaction provides for funding of $100 million and expires in 2006. During fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, the Corporation entered into sale/leaseback agreements with third party financiers involving vehicles subject to retail finance leases and operating leases with end users. Total proceeds were $137 million, $160 million and $144 million in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The outstanding capital lease obligations at October 31, 2000 were $379 million. On October 16, 2000 Truck Retail Instalment Paper Corporation ("TRIP"), a special purpose wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation, terminated the previously existing $400 million Asset-Backed Commercial Paper facility and issued $475 million of a senior class AAA rated and $25 million of a subordinated class A rated floating rate asset-backed notes. The proceeds were used to purchase eligible receivables from the Corporation and establish a revolving retail warehouse facility for the Corporation's retail notes and retail leases, other than fair market value leases. The Corporation manages its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates by limiting the amount of fixed rate assets funded with variable rate debt generally by selling fixed rate receivables on a fixed rate basis and by utilizing derivative financial instruments. These derivative financial instruments may include forward contracts, interest rate swaps and interest rate caps. 7 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Liquidity and Funds Management (continued) In November 1998, the Corporation sold fixed rate retail receivables to a multi-seller asset-backed commercial paper conduit sponsored by a major financial institution on a variable rate basis. For the protection of investors, the Corporation issued an interest rate cap. The notional amount of the cap amortizes based on the expected outstanding principal balance of the sold retail receivables. Under the terms of the cap agreement, the Corporation will make payments if interest rates exceed certain levels. As of October 31, 2000 the cap had a notional amount of $224 million and a fair value of $1 million, which is recorded in other liabilities in the Statement of Consolidated Financial Condition. In November 1999, the Corporation sold fixed rate retail receivables on a variable rate basis and entered into an amortizing interest rate swap agreement to fix the future cash flows of interest paid to lenders. In March 2000, the Corporation transferred all the rights and obligations of the swap to the bank conduit. The notional amount of the amortizing swap is based on the expected outstanding principal balance of the sold retail receivables. Under the terms of the agreement, the Corporation will make or receive payments based on the difference between the transferred swap notional amount and the outstanding principal balance of the sold retail receivables. The net settlement is included in retail notes revenue. As of October 31, 2000 the difference between the amortizing swap notional amount and the net outstanding principal balance of the sold retail receivables was $11 million and had an immaterial fair value. Under the revolving retail warehouse facility, the Corporation sells fixed rate retail notes or finance leases to the conduit and pays investors a floating rate of interest. As required by the rating agencies, the Corporation purchased an interest rate cap to protect investors against rising interest rates. To offset the economic cost of this cap, the Corporation sold an identical interest rate cap. As of October 31, 2000 the interest rate caps each had a notional amount of $500 million and a net fair value of zero. The Corporation has a $925 million bank revolving credit facility and the $500 million revolving retail warehouse facility program, which mature in March 2001 and October 2005, respectively. Subsequent to October 31, 2000, the Corporation renegotiated its revolving credit agreement. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion. As of October 31, 2000, available funding under the bank revolving credit facility and the revolving retail warehouse facility was $30 million. When combined with unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, $72 million remained available to fund the general business purposes of the Corporation. 8 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Year 2000 The Corporation had instituted a corporate-wide Year 2000 readiness project to identify all systems, which required modification or replacement, and to establish appropriate remediation and contingency plans to avoid an impact on the Corporation's ability to continue to provide its products and services. Through the date of this report, the Corporation has not experienced any significant Year 2000 problems. Total costs of the Year 2000 project were $6 million. New Accounting Standards On November 1, 2000, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended. This statement standardizes the accounting for derivative instruments by requiring that an entity recognize all derivatives as assets or liabilities in the statement of financial condition and measure them at fair value. When certain criteria are met, it also provides for matching the timing of gain or loss recognition on the derivative hedging instrument with the recognition of (a) the changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged asset or liability attributable to the hedged risk or (b) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. The cumulative transition adjustment recorded upon adoption was not material. In September 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities" which the Corporation must adopt for all applicable transactions occurring after March 31, 2001. The Corporation is currently assessing the impact of this standard on the Corporation's results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Business Outlook Retail deliveries of Class 5 through 8 trucks, including school buses, in the U.S. in fiscal 2001 is forecasted to decrease approximately 27% from 2000. The competitive commercial financing market will continue to put pressure on the Corporation's retail and wholesale financing activity and margins. Increased volatility in the capital markets is likely to put additional pressure on the funding rates available to the Corporation in the asset-backed public market, commercial paper markets and other debt financing markets. Additionally, high fuel costs may impact the financial strength of the Corporation's customers and the Corporation's ability to maintain the current level of portfolio quality. 9 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Business Outlook (continued) Management believes that collections on the outstanding receivables portfolio plus cash available from the Corporation's various funding sources will permit Navistar Financial Corporation to meet the financing requirements of International's dealers and retail customers through 2001 and beyond. Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk The Corporation is exposed to market risk primarily due to fluctuations in interest rates. Interest rate risk arises from the funding of a portion of the Corporation's fixed rate receivables with floating rate debt. The Corporation has managed exposure to interest rate changes by funding floating rate receivables with floating rate debt and fixed rate receivables with fixed rate debt, floating rate debt and equity capital. Management has reduced the net exposure which results from the funding of fixed rate receivables with floating rate debt by generally selling fixed rate receivables on a fixed rate basis and by utilizing derivative financial instruments. The Corporation does not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. The Corporation measures its interest rate risk by estimating the net amount by which the fair value of all interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities, including derivative financial instruments, would be impacted by selected hypothetical changes in market interest rates. Assuming a hypothetical 10% increase in interest rates as of October 31, 2000, the estimated fair value of the net assets, excluding net assets of Discontinued Operations, would decrease by approximately $17 million. 10 Item 8.

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Navistar Financial Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries ("Corporation"). International Truck and Engine Corporation ("International"), which is wholly-owned by Navistar International Corporation ("Navistar"), is the parent company of the Corporation. Nature of Operations The Corporation is a commercial financing organization that provides retail, wholesale and lease financing of products sold by International and its dealers within the United States. Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Revenue on Receivables Revenue from finance receivables is recognized using the interest method. Revenue on operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease. Recognition of revenue is suspended when management determines the collection of future income is not probable. Income recognition is resumed if collection doubts are removed. Allowance for Losses on Receivables The allowance for losses on receivables is established through a charge to the provision for losses. The allowance is an estimate of the amount required to absorb losses on existing receivables that may become uncollectible. The allowance is maintained at an amount management considers appropriate in relation to the outstanding receivables portfolio based on such factors as overall portfolio quality, historical loss experience and current economic conditions. 15 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS 1. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Allowance for Losses on Receivables (continued) Under various agreements, International and its dealers may be liable for a portion of customer losses or may be required to repurchase the repossessed collateral at the receivable principal value. The Corporation's losses are net of these benefits. Receivables are charged off to the allowance for losses when the receivable is determined to be uncollectible. Receivable Sales The Corporation securitizes and sells receivables to public and private investors with limited recourse. The Corporation continues to service the receivables, for which a servicing fee is received. Servicing fees are earned on a level yield basis over the terms of the related sold receivables and are included in servicing fee income. Gains or losses on sales of receivables are credited or charged to financing revenue in the period in which the sales occur. An adequate allowance for credit losses is provided prior to the receivable sale. Income Taxes Navistar and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return, which includes International and the Corporation. Federal income taxes for the Corporation are computed on a separate consolidated return basis and are payable to International. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include money market funds and marketable securities with original maturities of three months or less. Derivative Financial Instruments All derivative financial instruments, such as forward contracts, interest rate swaps and interest rate caps, are held for purposes other than trading. The Corporation's policy prohibits the use of derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. The Corporation generally uses derivative financial instruments to reduce its exposure to interest rate volatility. The Corporation may use forward contracts to hedge future interest payments on the notes and certificates related to an expected sale of receivables. The principal balance of receivables expected to be sold by the Corporation equals or exceeds the notional amount of open forward contracts. The Corporation may use interest rate swaps to reduce exposure to interest rate changes when it sells fixed rate receivables on a variable rate basis. Gains or losses incurred with the closing of forward contracts and interest rate swaps are included in the net gain or loss on sale of receivables. 16 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS 1. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Derivative Financial Instruments (continued) For the protection of investors, the Corporation may enter into an interest rate cap when fixed rate receivables are sold on a variable rate basis. The Corporation will make payments under the terms of the written caps if interest rates exceed certain levels. The interest rate caps are recorded at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in income. New Accounting Standards On November 1, 2000, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended. This statement standardizes the accounting for derivative instruments by requiring that an entity recognize all derivatives as assets or liabilities in the statement of financial condition and measure them at fair value. When certain criteria are met, it also provides for matching the timing of gain or loss recognition on the derivative hedging instrument with the recognition of (a) the changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged asset or liability attributable to the hedged risk or (b) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. The cumulative transition adjustment recorded upon adoption was not material. In September 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities" which the Corporation must adopt for all applicable transactions occurring after March 31, 2001. The Corporation is currently assessing the impact of this standard on the Corporation's results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Reclassification Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the presentation used in the 2000 financial statements. 17 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS 2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED COMPANIES Wholesale Notes, Wholesale Accounts and Retail Accounts In accordance with the agreements between the Corporation and International relating to financing of wholesale notes, wholesale accounts and retail accounts, the Corporation receives interest income from International at agreed upon interest rates applied to the average outstanding balances less interest amounts paid by dealers on wholesale notes and wholesale accounts. The Corporation purchases wholesale notes and accounts from International at the principal amount of the receivables. Revenue collected from International was $85.6 in 2000, $71.5 in 1999 and $67.2 in 1998. Retail Notes and Lease Financing In accordance with agreements between the Corporation and International, International may be liable for certain losses on the finance receivables and may be required to repurchase the repossessed collateral at the receivable principal value. Losses recorded by International were $22.5 in 2000, $3.5 in 1999 and $10.7 in 1998. Support Agreements Under provisions of certain public and private financing arrangements, agreements with International and Navistar provide that the Corporation's consolidated income before interest expense and income taxes will be maintained at not less than 125% of its consolidated interest expense. No income maintenance payments were required during the three-year period ended October 31, 2000. Administrative Expenses The Corporation pays a fee to International for data processing and other administrative services based on the actual cost of services performed. The amount of the fee was $3.0 in 2000 and $2.6 in 1999 and 1998. Accounts Payable Accounts payable to affiliates, which are obligated to be repaid upon request, were $266.4, $706.9, and $136.8 at October 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively. Accounts payable to affiliates reduced debt levels and resulted in a reduction in borrowing costs of $15.9 for fiscal 2000 and $12.5 for fiscal 1999. The reduction in borrowing costs for fiscal 1998 was not material. 18 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS 3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS On November 30, 2000, the Corporation's Board of Directors approved management's plan for the sale of Harco National Insurance Company ("Harco"), the wholly-owned insurance subsidiary. Harco provides commercial physical damage and liability insurance coverage to International's dealers and retail customers, and to the general public through an independent insurance agency system. Harco generates its funds through internal operations and has no external borrowings. Insurance premiums written by Harco are earned on a pro rata basis over the terms of the policies. Commission costs and premium taxes incurred in acquiring business are deferred and amortized on the same basis as related premiums are earned. The liability for unpaid insurance claims includes provisions for reported claims and estimates of unreported claims based on past experience. Such provisions include an estimate of loss adjustment expense. The estimated liability for unpaid insurance claims is regularly reviewed and updated. Any change in such estimate is reflected in current operations. Harco limits its exposure on any single loss occurrence by ceding reinsurance to other insurance enterprises. The Harco insurance segment is accounted for as a discontinued operation and, accordingly amounts in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for all periods shown have been restated to reflect discontinued operations accounting. The net assets of Harco have been reflected on the consolidated balance sheet at net realizable value and consisted of the following at October 31: 2000 1999 Marketable securities, at fair value................ $110.4 $101.7 Reinsurance receivables............................. 27.0 23.7 Other assets........................................ 17.8 16.6 ------ ------ Total assets...................................... 155.2 142.0 Insurance reserves and unearned premiums............ 90.6 77.9 Other liabilities................................... 3.9 3.4 ------ ------ Total liabilities................................. 94.5 81.3 ------ ------ Net assets.......................................... 60.7 60.7 Adjustment to net realized value.................... (11.9) - ------ ------ Net assets of discontinued operations............... $ 48.8 $ 60.7 ====== ====== 19 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS 3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS (continued) The pretax loss on disposal of Harco is estimated to be approximately $16.9 and includes the estimated loss on sale of $11.9, approximately $3.8 of severance and other exit costs, and $1.2 of curtailment loss associated with the related future reduction of employees from the Corporation's postretirement benefit plans. The anticipated future results of operations of Harco through the date of disposition is not anticipated to be material. The loss on disposal is reflected net of a deferred tax benefit of $6.4 in the Statement of Consolidated Income. Revenues of Harco were $55.9, $44.2 and $41.6 for fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. 4.

The contractual maturities, therefore, should not be regarded as a forecast of future collections. The Corporation's primary business is to provide wholesale, retail and lease financing for new and used trucks sold by International and International's dealers, and as a result, the Corporation's receivables and leases have significant concentration in the trucking industry. On a geographic basis, there is not a disproportionate concentration of credit risk in any area of the United States. The Corporation retains as collateral a security interest in the equipment associated with wholesale notes, retail notes and leases. The Corporation sells finance receivables to public and private investors with limited recourse provisions. Outstanding sold receivable balances, net of unearned finance income, at October 31 are as follows: 2000 1999 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Retail notes............................ $1,730.2 $1,696.0 Wholesale notes......................... 883.0 600.0 Retail accounts......................... 80.0 - ---- ---- Total.............................. $2,693.2 $2,296.0 ======== ======== The Corporation has three wholly-owned subsidiaries, Navistar Financial Retail Receivables Corporation ("NFRRC"), Navistar Financial Securities Corporation ("NFSC") and Truck Retail Account Corporation ("TRAC"), which have a limited purpose of purchasing retail, wholesale and account receivables, respectively, and transferring an undivided ownership interest in such receivables to investors. 21 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS 4. FINANCE RECEIVABLES (continued) During fiscal 2000, in two separate sales, the Corporation sold a total of $1,008 of retail notes, net of unearned finance income, through NFRRC. The Corporation sold $533.3 of retail notes in November 1999 to two multi-seller asset-backed commercial paper conduits sponsored by a major financial institution and $475.0 of retail notes in March 2000 to an owner trust which, in turn, sold notes to investors. Aggregate gains of $2.5 were recognized on the sales. As of October 31, 2000, the aggregate shelf registration available to NFRRC for issuance of asset-backed securities is $1,782.6. At October 31, 2000, NFSC has in place a revolving wholesale note trust that provides for the funding of $883.0 of eligible wholesale notes. During fiscal 2000, NFSC issued a $212.0 tranche of investor certificates which mature in June 2005 and NFSC sold variable funding certificates with an initial balance of $300.0, to a conduit sponsored by a major financial institution. The maximum funding capacity of the variable funding certificates was reduced to $200 million in July 2000. As of October 31, 2000 the trust is comprised of three $200.0 tranches of investor certificates maturing in 2003, 2004 and 2008, a $212.0 tranche of investor certificates maturing in 2005 and variable funding certificates with a balance of $125.0 which mature in 2001. TRAC has in place a revolving retail account conduit that provides for the funding of $100.0 of eligible retail accounts. As of October 31, 2000 the Corporation has utilized $80.0 of this facility. The facility expires in 2001. NFRRC, NFSC and TRAC have limited recourse on the sold receivables and their assets are available to satisfy the claims of their creditors prior to such assets becoming available for their own uses or to the Corporation or affiliated companies. The terms of receivable sales generally require the Corporation to maintain cash reserves with the trusts and conduits as credit enhancement. The use of cash reserves held by the trusts and conduits is restricted under the terms of the securitized sales agreements. The maximum exposure under all receivable sale recourse provisions at October 31, 2000 was $329.8; however, management believes the recorded reserves for losses are adequate. The following is a summary of amounts included in Amounts Due from Sales of Receivables as of October 31: 2000 1999 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cash held and invested by trusts............................$136.6 $111.6 Subordinated retained interests in wholesale receivables.... 142.5 96.8 Subordinated retained interests in retail receivables....... 50.6 41.4 Interest only receivables................................... 0.1 7.5 Allowance for credit losses.................................

Each of these assets is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease in an amount necessary to reduce the leased vehicle to its estimated residual value at the end of the lease term. 6.

SHORT-TERM DEBT Commercial paper is issued by the Corporation with varying terms. The Corporation also has short-term borrowings with various banks on a non-committed basis. Compensating cash balances and commitment fees are not required under these agreements. Unused commitments under the Corporation's bank revolving credit facility are used as backup for outstanding short-term borrowings. See also Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The proceeds were used to purchase eligible receivables from the Corporation and establish a revolving retail warehouse facility for the Corporation's retail notes and retail leases, other than fair market value leases. At October 31, 2000, the Corporation had a $925 contractually committed bank revolving credit facility. Subsequent to October 31, 2000, the Corporation renegotiated its revolving credit agreement. The new agreement provides for aggregate borrowings of $820 and will mature in November 2005. Under the new revolving credit agreement, Navistar's three Mexican finance subsidiaries will be permitted to borrow up to $100 in the aggregate, which will be guaranteed by the Corporation. Available funding under the bank revolving credit facility and the revolving retail warehouse facility was $30. When combined with unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, $72 was available to fund the general business purposes of the Corporation at October 31, 2000. Under the terms of the bank revolving credit facility, the Corporation is required to maintain tangible net worth at a minimum of $175 and a debt to tangible net worth ratio of no greater than 7 to 1. The bank revolving credit agreement grants security interests in substantially all of the Corporation's assets to the Corporation's debt holders. Compensating cash balances are not required under the bank revolving credit facility. Facility fees are paid quarterly regardless of usage. 26 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS 9. SENIOR AND SUBORDINATED DEBT (continued) During fiscal 2000 and 1999, the Corporation entered into sale/leaseback agreements involving vehicles subject to retail finance and operating leases with end users. The balances are classified under senior and subordinated debt as capital lease obligations. In connection with the sale and leaseback of certain of its leasing portfolio assets, the Corporation and its subsidiary, Harco Leasing, Inc. ("HLC"), have established Navistar Leasing Company ("NLC"), a Delaware business trust. NLC holds legal title to leased vehicles and is the lessor on substantially all leases originated by the Corporation. The assets of NLC have been and will continue to be allocated into various beneficial interests issued by NLC. HLC owns one such beneficial interest in NLC and HLC has transferred other beneficial interests issued by NLC to purchasers under sale/leaseback agreements. Neither the beneficial interests held by purchasers under sale/leaseback agreements or the assets represented thereby, nor legal interest in any assets of NLC, are available to HLC, the Corporation or its creditors. 10. POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS The Corporation provides postretirement benefits to a substantial number of its employees. Costs associated with postretirement benefits include pension and postretirement health care expenses for employees, retirees and surviving spouses and dependents. Generally, the pension plans are non-contributory. The Corporation's policy is to fund its pension plans in accordance with applicable United States government regulations. At October 31, 2000, all legal funding requirements had been met. Postretirement Expense Net periodic benefit cost included in the Statements of Consolidated Income is composed of the following: Pension Benefits Other Benefits ------------------------ ---------------------- 2000 1999 1998 2000 1999 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- Service cost for benefits earned during the period...$ 0.7 $ 0.7 $ 1.0 $0.4 $ 0.3 $ 0.4 Interest cost on obligation..... 3.7 3.4 3.1 1.2 1.0 0.8 Net amortization costs and other 0.1 0.2 0.1 - 0.1 - Less expected return on assets..

POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS (continued) Postretirement Expense (continued) The accumulated reduction in shareowner's equity is recorded in the Statements of Consolidated Financial Condition net of deferred income taxes of $0.9 at October 31, 2000. The sale of Harco resulted in a curtailment loss of approximately $1.2, which is recorded as a part of the loss on disposal of discontinued operations in the Statements of Consolidated Income. The projected benefit obligation, accumulated benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets for the pension plan with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets were $4.1, $4.1, and $0.0, respectively, as of October 31, 2000, and $3.5, $3.5, and $0.0, respectively, as of October 31, 1999.

LEASES The Corporation is obligated under non-cancelable operating leases for the majority of its office facilities. These leases are generally renewable and provide that property taxes and maintenance costs are to be paid by the lessee.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Corporation's financial instruments were as follows: 2000 1999 Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Value Value Value Value - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Financial assets: Finance receivables: Retail notes....................... $ 1,050.5 $ 1,036.6 $ 851.9 $ 858.6 Wholesale notes and accounts....... 404.8 404.8 1,036.2 1,036.2 Amounts due from sales of Receivables........................ 316.5 311.8 244.5 242.5 Financial liabilities: Senior and subordinated debt, excluding capital lease obligations........................ 1,495.0 1,494.9 1,352.7 1,353.7 The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value. The fair value of retail notes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows using an estimated discount rate reflecting current rates paid to purchasers of similar types of receivables with similar credit, interest rate and prepayment risks. For wholesale notes and retail and wholesale accounts, all of which reprice monthly, the carrying amounts approximate fair value as a result of the short-term nature of the receivables. The fair value of cash deposits included above in amounts due from sales of receivables approximates their carrying value. The fair values of other amounts due from sales of receivables were derived by discounting expected cash flows at estimated current market rates. For fixed rate debt, the fair value is estimated based on quoted market prices where available and, where not available, on quoted market prices of debt with similar characteristics. The estimated fair values for all other financial instruments approximate their carrying values due to the short-term nature or variable interest terms inherent in the financial instruments. 31 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS 13. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued) Derivatives Held or Issued for Purposes Other Than Trading The Corporation manages its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates by limiting the amount of fixed rate assets funded with variable rate debt generally by selling fixed rate receivables on a fixed rate basis and by utilizing derivative financial instruments. These derivative financial instruments may include forward contracts, interest rate swaps and interest rate caps. The fair value of these instruments is estimated based on quoted market prices and is subject to market risk as the instruments may become less valuable due to changes in market conditions or interest rates. The Corporation manages exposure to counter-party credit risk by entering into derivative financial instruments with major financial institutions that can be expected to fully perform under the terms of such agreements. The Corporation does not require collateral or other security to support derivative financial instruments with credit risk. The Corporation's counter-party credit exposure is limited to the fair value of contracts with a positive fair value at the reporting date. At October 31, 2000, the Corporation's derivative financial instruments had a negative net fair value. Notional amounts are used to measure the volume of derivative financial instruments and do not represent exposure to credit loss. The Corporation enters into derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the fair value of retail notes anticipated to be sold. The Corporation manages such risk by entering into forward contracts to sell fixed debt securities or forward interest rate swaps whose fair value is highly correlated with that of the Corporation's receivables. Income recognition of changes in the fair value of the derivatives is deferred until the derivative instruments are closed. Gains or losses incurred with the closing of these agreements are included as a component of the gain or loss on sale of receivables. As of October 31, 2000, there were no such derivative financial instruments open. In November 1998, the Corporation sold fixed rate retail receivables to a multi-seller asset-backed commercial paper conduit sponsored by a major financial institution on a variable rate basis. For the protection of investors, the Corporation issued an interest rate cap. The notional amount of the cap amortizes based on the expected outstanding principal balance of the sold retail receivables. Under the terms of the cap agreement, the Corporation will make payments if interest rates exceed certain levels. As of October 31, 2000 the cap had a notional amount of $224 and a fair value of $1, which is recorded in other liabilities in the Statement of Consolidated Financial Condition. 32 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS 13. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued) In November 1999, the Corporation sold fixed rate retail receivables on a variable rate basis and entered into an amortizing interest rate swap agreement to fix the future cash flows of interest paid to lenders. In March 2000, the Corporation transferred all the rights and obligations of the swap to the bank conduit. The notional amount of the amortizing swap is based on the expected outstanding principal balance of the sold retail receivables. Under the terms of the agreement, the Corporation will make or receive payments based on the differential between the transferred swap notional amount and the outstanding principal balance of the sold retail receivables. The net settlement is included in retail notes revenue. As of October 31, 2000 the differential between the amortizing swap notional amount and the net outstanding principal balance of the sold retail receivables was $11 and had an immaterial fair value. In October 2000, the Corporation entered into a $500 retail revolving facility as a method to fund retail notes and finance leases prior to the sale of receivables. Under the agreements of this facility, the Corporation sells fixed rate retail notes or finance leases to the conduit and pays investors a floating rate of interest. As required by the rating agencies, the Corporation purchased an interest rate cap to protect investors against rising interest rates. To offset the economic cost of this cap, the Corporation sold an identical interest rate cap. As of October 31, 2000 the interest rate caps each had a notional amount of $500 and a net fair value of zero. 14. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Corporation is subject to various claims arising in the ordinary course of business, and is party to various legal proceedings which constitute ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business of the Corporation. In the opinion of the Corporation's management, none of these proceedings or claims are material to the business or the financial condition of the Corporation. 15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS In November 2000, the Corporation sold $764.7 of retail notes, net of unearned finance income, through NFRRC to an owner trust which, in turn, issued securities which were sold to investors. A $4.8 gain was recognized in November 2000. In November 2000, the Corporation established Truck Engine Receivables Financing Corporation ("TERFCO"), a special purpose, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation, for the purpose of securitizing engine accounts receivable. On November 21, 2000, the Corporation securitized all of its unsecured trade receivables generated by the sale of diesel engines and engine service parts from International to Ford. The transaction provides for funding of $100 million and expires in 2006. 33 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS 16.
