    Navistar International Corporation and Consolidated Subsidiaries
               Notes to Financial Statements  (Unaudited)

Note A.  Summary of Accounting Policies

     Navistar International Corporation is a holding company whose principal
operating subsidiary is Navistar International Transportation Corp.
(Transportation).  As used hereafter, "Company" refers to Navistar
International Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. 

     The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting policies described in the 1995 Annual Report on
Form 10-K and should be read in conjunction with the disclosures therein. 

     In addition to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has
elected to provide financial information in a format that presents the
operating results, financial condition and cash flow designated as
"Manufacturing" and "Financial Services."  As used herein and in the 1995
Annual Report on Form 10-K, Manufacturing includes the consolidated financial
results of the Company's manufacturing operations with its wholly owned
financial services subsidiaries included on a one-line basis under the equity
method of accounting.  Financial Services includes the consolidated financial
results of Navistar Financial Corporation (Navistar Financial),  its domestic
insurance subsidiary and foreign finance and insurance subsidiaries. 

     In the opinion of management, these interim financial statements reflect
all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present
fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flow for the
periods presented.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results
for the full year.  Certain 1995 amounts have been reclassified to conform
with the presentation used in the 1996 financial statements. 

Note B.  Supplemental Cash Flow Information

     On the Statement of Cash Flow, "Acquisitions in excess of cash
collection" relating to Financial Services' wholesale notes and accounts
receivable are included on a consolidated basis as a change in operating
assets and liabilities under cash flow from operations and in Financial
Services as cash flow from investment programs.

     Consolidated interest payments during the first six months of 1996 and
1995 were $40 million and $40 million, respectively.  Consolidated tax
payments made during the first six months of 1996 and 1995, were $3 million
and $3 million, respectively.

Note C.  Income Taxes

     The benefit of Net Operating Loss (NOL) carryforwards is recognized as
a deferred tax asset in the Statement of Financial Condition, while the
Statement of Income includes income taxes calculated at the statutory rate. 
The amount reported does not represent cash payment of income taxes except for
certain state income, foreign withholding and federal alternative minimum
taxes which are not material.  In the Statement of Financial Condition, the
deferred tax asset is reduced by the amount of deferred tax expense or
increased by a deferred tax benefit recorded during the year.  Until the
Company has utilized its significant NOL carryforwards, the cash payment of
federal income taxes will be minimal.

Note E.  Financial Instruments

     Navistar Financial enters into forward interest rate contracts to manage
its exposures to fluctuations in funding costs from the anticipated
securitization and sale of retail notes.  Gains or losses incurred with the
closing of these agreements are included as a component of the gain or loss
on the sale of receivables.

     In February 1996, Navistar Financial entered into $200 million of short-
term forward interest rate lock agreements on a Treasury security maturing in
1998 related to the sale of retail receivables in May 1996.  At April 30,
1996, the deferred unrealized gain from hedging the anticipated , but not yet
committed, sales transactions was $4 million.

     In May 1996, Navistar Financial entered into an additional $250 million
of forward interest rate lock agreements on Treasury securities maturing in
1998 related to the May 1996 sale of retail receivables.  These hedge
agreements, totalling $450 million, were closed on May 22, 1996, in
conjunction with the pricing of the May sale.

Note F.  Legal Proceedings

     In May 1993, a jury issued a verdict in favor of Vernon Klein Truck &
Equipment, Inc. (Klein Truck) and against Transportation in the amount of $11
million in compensatory damages and $15 million in punitive damages.  The
Company appealed the verdict and in order to do so was required to post a bond 
collateralized with $30 million in cash.  In November 1994, the Court of
Appeals of the State of Oklahoma reversed the verdict and entered judgment in
favor of Transportation on virtually all aspects of the case.  Klein Truck
appealed to the Oklahoma Supreme Court where the case is now pending.  The
bond and the related collateral will be released when the order of the
Oklahoma Supreme Court is filed.

Note G.  Environmental Matters

     In the fourth quarter of 1994, Transportation recorded a charge for
potential clean-up costs related to two formerly owned businesses, Wisconsin
Steel and Solar Turbines, Inc. (Solar), as disclosed in Note 5 to the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.  During the third quarter of 1995,
Transportation and Solar entered into an agreement providing for the joint
funding of future site studies and necessary corrective action at the
facility.  The agreement also provides for arbitration to resolve a dispute
over past remediation costs incurred by Solar.

     There has been no change in the Company's estimate of the anticipated
clean-up costs of the Wisconsin Steel and Solar sites reported at October 31,
1995.

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 

Consolidated

     The company reported net income of $26 million, or $0.26 per common share
for the second quarter ended April 30, 1996, compared with net income of $46
million, or $0.52 per common share for the comparable quarter last year.  For
the first six months of 1996, the company reported net income of $48 million,
a decrease from the $69 million reported for the same period in 1995.

     Consolidated sales and revenues for the second quarter of 1996 totalled
$1,480 million compared with $1,640 million reported in 1995.  During the
first six months of 1996, consolidated sales and revenues declined 5% to
$2,912 million from $3,056 million.  

Manufacturing

     Second Quarter Ended April 30, 1996
     -----------------------------------

     Manufacturing, excluding Financial Services, reported income before
income taxes of $26 million compared with pretax income of $61 million in the
second quarter of 1995.  The change reflects a decline in demand for trucks
partially offset by the effect of ongoing cost improvement initiatives and
continued strong demand for mid-range diesel engines and higher parts sales. 


     Second quarter 1996 industry retail sales of  Class 5 through 8 trucks
totalled 87,100 units, a decrease of 11% over 1995.  Class 8 heavy truck sales
of 49,700 units during the second quarter of 1996 were 15% lower than the 1995
level of 58,300 units.  Industry sales of Class 5, 6 and 7 medium trucks,
including school buses, declined 5% to 37,400 units.  Industry sales of school
buses, which accounted for 19% of the medium truck market increased 22%.

     Manufacturing's sales of trucks, diesel engines and service parts for the
second quarter of 1996 totalled $1,423 million compared with $1,586 million
reported for the same period in 1995.  The company maintained its position as
sales leader in the combined United States and Canadian Class 5 through 8
truck market with a 27.1% market share for the second quarter of 1996, an
improvement from the 25.2% market share reported in 1995.

     Shipments of mid-range diesel engines by the company to other original
equipment manufacturers during the second quarter of 1996 totalled 40,600
units, a 3% increase from the same period of 1995.  Higher shipments to a
major automotive manufacturer to meet consumer demand for the light trucks and
vans which use this engine was the primary reason for the increase.  

     Service parts sales of $195 million in the second quarter of 1996 were
10% higher than the $177 million reported in 1995.  

Operating Costs and Expenses.  Manufacturing gross margin was 13.7% of sales
for the first quarter of 1996 compared with 14.0% for the same period in 1995. 
The decrease in gross margin is primarily the result of lower sales volumes
and more competitive pricing  partially offset by improved operating
efficiency.

         <PAGE 10>

     Engineering and research expense increased to $35 million in the first
quarter of 1996 from $26 million in 1995 reflecting investment in the next
generation of trucks and diesel engines as well as improvements to existing
products. 

     Six Months Ended April 30, 1996    
     -------------------------------

     Pretax income, excluding Financial Services, for the first six months of
1996 was $34 million compared with $86 million reported for the same period
of 1995.

     Manufacturing's sales and revenues during this period totalled $2,808
million, 6% lower than the first two quarters of 1995.  During the first six
months of 1996, sales of trucks declined 10% while sales of diesel engines to
original equipment manufacturers increased 9%.  Parts sales were 10% higher
than in the same period of 1995.

     Industry retail sales of Class 5 through 8 trucks during the first six
months of fiscal 1996 totalled 167,900 units, a decrease from the 186,900
units sold during this period in 1995.  The company remained the sales leader
in the combined United States and Canadian Class 5 through 8 truck market for
the first two quarters of the fiscal year with a 26.1% market share, a slight
increase over the 25.8% market share reported for the same period last year.

     Manufacturing gross margin for the first six months of 1996 was 13.0%
compared with 13.3% in 1995.  The factors which influenced gross margin during
the second quarter of 1996 were also responsible for the change during the
first half of the year.

Financial Services

     Financial Services' pretax income for the second quarter of 1996 was $16
million, an improvement from the $13 million reported in 1995.  Navistar
Financial was responsible for the change which reflects increased revenues
from higher retail and wholesale note balances.

     The increase in pretax income from $24 million for the first six months
of  1995 to $43 million in 1996 reflects higher income on sales of retail
notes and an increased volume of wholesale financing.  During the first two
quarters of 1996, sales of receivables totalled $525 million with a gain of
$12 million compared with $315 million sold a year ago with a small loss. The
improved gains on sales resulted from higher margins on retail notes
reflecting declining market interest rates prior to the date of sale.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES     

Consolidated

     Consolidated cash flow is generated from the manufacture, sale and
financing of trucks, diesel engines and service parts.  Total cash, cash
equivalents and marketable securities of the company amounted to $751 million
at April 30, 1996, $1,040 million at October 31, 1995 and $836 million at
April 30, 1995. 

         <PAGE 11>

Manufacturing

     Cash used in operations during the first six months of 1996 totalled $182
million, primarily from a net change in operating assets and liabilities of
$290 million.  The net change in operating assets and liabilities includes a
$120 million decrease in receivables,  A $184 million increase in inventories
reflecting the decline in demand for trucks, an increase in accounts payable
and a $136 million decrease in other liabilities.  The decline in other
liabilities is the result of the payment to employees as required by the
Company's profit sharing agreements as well as the timing of planned pension
funding.

     Investment programs used $55 million in cash to fund capital expenditures
for truck product improvement, increase diesel engine capacity and improve
cost performance.  Financing programs used cash to pay $14 million in
dividends on the Series G Preferred Stock and to reduce debt by $8 million.

     At April 30, 1996, the company had outstanding capital commitments of $29
million.  The commitments include truck and engine product development and
ongoing facility maintenance programs.  The company finances capital
expenditures principally through internally generated cash.  Capital leasing
is used to fund selected projects based on economic and operating factors.

     It is the opinion of management that, in the absence of significant
unanticipated cash demands, current and forecasted cash flow will provide a
basis for financing operating requirements, capital expenditures and
anticipated payments of preferred dividends.

Financial Services

     Operations used $40 million in cash in the first quarter of 1996
primarily reflecting a payment to Manufacturing.  Cash from investment
programs and financing activities funded Financial Services' operations. 
Investment programs provided $11 million during this period principally as a
result of $29 million in funds advanced to Navistar Financial by
Transportation while financing activities provided $32 million as a result of
an increase in debt.

     Receivable sales were a significant source of funding in 1996 and 1995. 
During the first six months of 1996, Navistar Financial sold $525 million of
retail notes, net of unearned finance income, through Navistar Financial
Retail Receivables Corporation (NFRRC), realizing net proceeds from the sale
of $495 million.  During the same period in 1995, Navistar Financial sold $315
million of retail notes receivable with net proceeds of $295 million.  In both
years, the net proceeds were used for general working capital purposes.

     On May 30, 1996, Navistar Financial sold $460 million of retail notes,
net of unearned finance income, realizing net proceeds of $459 million which
were used for general working capital purposes.

     On November 14, 1995, NFRRC filed an additional registration statement
with the Securities and Exchange Commission providing for the issuance of an
additional $2,000 million of asset-backed securities. This registration
statement, along with two previously filed registrations statements, allows
NFRRC to issue up to $5,000 million of asset-backed securities.  At April 30,
1996, the remaining shelf registration available to NFRRC was $2,905 million. 

     Effective March 29, 1996, Navistar Financial amended and restated its
$900 million bank revolving credit facility and its $300 million asset-backed
commercial paper  (ABCP) program, extending the maturity date of each facility
to March 2001.  In addition, the commitment of the bank revolving credit
facility was expanded to $925 million, the ABCP facility was increased to $400
million and a new pricing and fee schedule was established.

     At April 30, 1996, available funding under the amended and restated
credit facility and the asset-backed commercial paper facility was $227
million, of which $49 million was used to back short-term debt at April 30,
1996.  The remaining $178 million when combined with unrestricted cash and
cash equivalents made $185 million available to fund the general business
purposes of Navistar Financial at April 30, 1996.

         <PAGE 12>

     Management believes that collections on the outstanding receivables
portfolio as well as funds available from various funding sources will permit
the Financial Services subsidiaries to meet the financing requirements of the
company's dealers and customers.

Business Outlook

     During the first two quarters of 1996, the Class 5 through 8 truck market
experienced a significant decline in the rate of new truck orders and an
increase in the cancellation of some existing orders.  Accordingly, retail
deliveries in 1996 will be highly dependent on the rate at which new truck
orders are received.  Anticipating lower year-over-year truck demand levels, 
management will balance production with demand as appropriate to assure that
the company's operating and financial objectives for the year are met.    

     As a result of a decline in truck orders which reflect a softening of
certain key economic indicators in the truck industry, the company currently
projects 1996 United States and Canadian Class 8 heavy truck demand to be
173,000 units, a 24% decrease from 1995.  Class 5, 6 and 7 medium truck
demand, including school buses, is forecast at 144,500 units, a 5% decrease
from 1995.  Diesel engine shipments by the company to original equipment
manufacturers in 1996 are expected to be approximately 157,000 units,
unchanged from 1995.  The company's parts sales are expected to grow 5% to
$768 million.
