PHH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods presented. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company's annual report included as part of Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 1994. Net Income Per Share Net income per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period and common stock equivalents arising from the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options under the treasury stock method. See Exhibit 11 to this Form 10-Q which details the computation of net income per share. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in pending litigation of the usual character incidental to the business transacted by them. In the opinion of management, such litigation will not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position and Operations. PHH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Six Months Ended October 31, 1994 vs. October 31, 1993 Net income and net income per share for the second quarter of fiscal 1995 were $17.6 million and $1.01, respectively, increases of nine and 12 percent over the second quarter of fiscal 1994. Net income and net income per share for the first half of fiscal 1995 were $34.1 million and $1.96, respectively, an increase of 10 and 13 percent over the first half of fiscal 1994. These increases were due to increases in the Company's relocation and real estate services and vehicle management services business segments, partially offset by a decrease in its mortgage banking services business segment. Net income for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 1995 includes interest income, net of income taxes, of $1.4 million and $1.8 million, respectively, relating to interest received in conjunction with a refund of US federal income taxes. Consolidated revenues decreased six percent to $510 million and five percent to $1.0 billion for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 1995, respectively, as compared to the same periods a year ago. The Company's effective tax rate was 41 percent for the first six months of fiscal 1995 and fiscal 1994. Vehicle Management Services Vehicle management services primarily consist of the management, purchase, leasing and resale of vehicles for corporate clients and governmental agencies, including fuel and expense management programs and other fee-based services for clients' vehicle fleets. Total vehicle management services revenues increased five percent for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 1995 to $304 million and $609 million, respectively, compared to the same periods a year ago. Leasing revenues increased five percent to $256 million and $509 million for the second quarter and first six months, respectively, of fiscal 1995, compared to the same periods a year ago. The increases were primarily due to a reduced amount, in comparison to prior years, of leases and leased vehicles sold or transferred to third parties, for which management and servicing responsibility is retained by the Company. Had these assets not been sold or transferred in prior years, the related rental payments would have been included in revenues, and the related depreciation on vehicles under operating leases and interest would have been included in expenses. On a pro forma basis, the result would have been a decrease in leasing revenues of two percent for both the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 1995 compared to the same periods a year ago. The decrease in pro forma leasing revenues was primarily due to a decrease in the number of leased vehicles under management, partially offset by an increase in the average cost of vehicles managed and higher interest rates. Other vehicle management services revenues increased seven percent to $48 million for the second quarter and nine percent to $100 million for the first six months of fiscal 1995, compared to the same periods a year ago. The increases were primarily due to growth in fee-based vehicle services such as fuel and accident management. Additionally, revenues in the first six months of fiscal 1995 were positively affected by a favorable US and UK resale market for disposition of vehicles under closed-end operating leases. Vehicle management services operating income for the second quarter increased 15 percent to $11.3 million and for the first six months of fiscal 1995 increased 30 percent to $23.9 million, compared to the same periods a year ago. The increases were primarily due to growth in fee-based vehicle services, increases in purchases and average cost of vehicles, a favorable resale market for disposition of vehicles, as well as a higher level of spending for technology improvements in the prior year's first quarter. Partially offsetting the increases was a slight reduction in vehicles under management. The Company's profitability from vehicle management services is affected by the number of vehicles managed and related services provided for clients. Therefore, profitability can be affected by the general economy as corporate clients exercise a higher degree of fiscal caution by decreasing the size of their vehicle fleets or by extending the service period of existing fleet vehicles. At the same time, operating results should be positively affected as clients increasingly choose to outsource their vehicle management services operations and as the Company expands into new markets, further enhances its product diversity, broadens its client base and continues its productivity and quality improvement efforts. Relocation and Real Estate Services Relocation and real estate services primarily consist of the purchase, management and resale of homes for transferred employees of corporations, governmental agencies and affinity groups. Other programs include fee-based services which provide assistance to the transferring employee, real estate services to financial institutions and other consulting services. Relocation and real estate services revenues for the second quarter decreased 18 percent to $175 million and for the first six months of fiscal 1995 decreased 16 percent to $357 million, compared to the same periods a year ago. Revenue decreases were primarily due to a reduction in the number of transferee homes sold in the US and UK. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in fee-based relocation and real estate services such as home finding assistance, household goods moving and residential properties managed for financial institutions in North America. Also, revenues were positively affected by an increase in the average value of transferee homes sold in the US and higher interest rates. Costs, including interest, of carrying and reselling homes for the second quarter decreased 22 percent to $146 million and for the first six months of fiscal 1995 decreased 20 percent to $302 million from the same periods a year ago. The decreases were primarily due to a smaller number of transferee homes sold in the US and UK as well as a reduction in resale losses and other direct carrying costs due to a reduction in the number of days homes were held for resale, partially offset by higher interest rates. Relocation and real estate services operating income for the second quarter increased 75 percent to $11.1 million and for the first six months of fiscal 1995 increased 79 percent to $18.0 million, compared to the same periods a year ago. The increases were primarily due to improvements in fee-based relocation and real estate services and an increase in the value of transferee homes sold in the US. Additionally, the first six months of fiscal 1995 reflects a lower amount of spending for technology improvements than the comparable period a year ago. Partially offsetting the increase was a decrease in the number of transferee homes sold in the US and UK. The Company is generally not at risk on its carrying value of homes should there be a downturn in the housing market. Management anticipates that, as businesses continue to reassess their relocation plans as part of cost control measures, relocation services results may be impacted. At the same time, operating results should be positively affected as clients increasingly choose to outsource their relocation services and as the Company expands into new markets, enhances its product diversity, broadens its client base and continues its productivity and quality improvement efforts. Mortgage Banking Services Mortgage banking services primarily consist of the origination, sale and servicing of residential first mortgage loans. A variety of first mortgage products are marketed to consumers through relationships with corporations, affinity groups, governmental agencies, real estate brokerage firms and other mortgage banks. Mortgage banking services revenues for the second quarter decreased 27 percent to $31 million and for the first six months of fiscal 1995 decreased 20 percent to $64 million, compared to the same periods a year ago. The decreases were primarily due to reduced margins on sale of mortgages to permanent investors as well as decreases in loan closing volume of 60 percent in the second quarter and 53 percent in the first six months versus prior year comparable periods. The decreases were partially offset by higher servicing fee revenue due to an increase in the servicing portfolio to $17.2 billion and gains on sale of mortgage servicing rights of $11.3 million in the second quarter and $17.9 million in the first six months of fiscal 1995. Direct costs of mortgage banking services for the second quarter decreased 49 percent and for the first six months of fiscal 1995 decreased 38 percent over the comparable prior year periods. The decreases reflect the reduction in loan closing volume as well as the results of the Company's continuing productivity efforts. Mortgage banking services operating income for the second quarter decreased 36 percent to $7.5 million and for the first six months of fiscal 1995 decreased 34 percent to $16.1 million, compared to the same periods a year ago. The decreases were primarily due to the decline in revenues discussed above and increases in interest costs due to a rise in interest rates, partially offset by lower direct costs and selling, general and administrative expenses reflecting productivity efforts. The Company's profitability from mortgage banking services may be affected by such external factors as the level of interest rates, the strength of the various segments of the economy and the condition of residential real estate markets. As expected, the Company has experienced a slowdown in refinancing activity due to a rise in interest rates. Management believes the Company's broad-based marketing strategies and continuous quality improvement efforts should continue to positively affect operating results. Additionally, management will continue to monitor market conditions for opportunities to realize value through sales of mortgage servicing rights. FINANCIAL CONDITION The Company maintains adequate committed credit facilities to support future requirements. As of October 31, 1994, the Company had outstanding $2,979 million of debt for "Assets Under Management Programs". Repayment of outstanding principal balances is funded from client lease payments, repayment of equity advances under home relocation and real estate management contracts, repayment of other assets under management programs, and the sale or transfer of certain assets to third parties. Lease repayments totaled $699 million for the first six months of fiscal 1995, while repayments of equity advances on homes were $998 million. PART II OTHER INFORMATION Item 6.
