Operations"

ITEM 1. BUSINESS
- ----------------

The Company

We began operations in 1977 in Alexandria, Virginia, with the founding of The
Finance Company by Robert S. Raley, Jr., our current Chairman of the Board and
Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Raley has spent his entire 42-year career
exclusively within the consumer finance industry. We now conduct consumer
finance operations primarily through two wholly owned subsidiaries, The Finance
Company and First Community Finance, Inc.

Through The Finance Company, we purchase and service retail installment sales
contracts originated by automobile and motorcycle dealers in the sale of
vehicles, consisting of new and used automobiles, vans, light trucks, and
motorcycles on an individual basis. Retail installment sales contracts are
acquired on an individual basis after we have reviewed and approved the vehicle
purchaser's credit application. The primary focus of our business is retail
installment sales contracts originated by dealers with consumers who are United
States enlisted military personnel, in the E-1 through E-4 pay grades and
non-military consumers who do not have access to traditional sources of credit.
To achieve an acceptable rate of return and provide for credit risks, contracts
are purchased from dealers at a discount to the remaining principal balance.
Most of the discount is held in a nonrefundable reserve against which credit
losses are first applied. We are based in Norfolk, Virginia, with nine Contract
Production Offices and three full service branches throughout the United States.

To maximize our results in 2001, we focused our efforts on our core businesses,
automobile retail installment sales contract at The Finance Company and Direct
Consumer Loans at First Community Finance. In order to maintain this focus and
maximize our strongest business lines, we have phased out as of March 2001 other
business lines such as Bulk Acquisitions from "Buy Here Pay Here" automobile
dealers.

Our purchases provide us with the ability to direct the credit underwriting
process at the initiation of the retail installment sales contract.
Participating dealers benefit by having a source of financing for a group of
customers who typically find financing difficult to obtain. This financing
allows a dealer to increase the number of vehicles sold and improves dealer
profitability. Consumers also benefit because the financing we provide enables
them to purchase a vehicle they otherwise might not be able to buy. We utilize a
network of nine strategically located contract production offices and three full
service branches to underwrite and purchase contracts from participating
dealers. As of December 31, 2001, $227.8 million, or 82%, of our gross contract
receivables represented point-of-sale purchases, compared to $202.5 million, or
68%, at December 31, 2000 and $175.6 million, or 68%, at December 31, 1999.

In the bulk purchase business, we had emphasized acquisitions of portfolios of
seasoned retail installment sales contracts. These contracts normally had a
payment history of at least three months. While the typical bulk purchase was
approximately $250,000, we had, at times, purchased portfolios totaling more
than $12 million. As of December 31, 2001, $20.3 million, or 7% of our gross
contract receivables was attributable to bulk purchases, compared to $64.5
million, or 22%, at December 31, 2000, and $60.9 million, or 24% at December 31,
1999.

Although we underwrite and purchase contracts through the various contract
production offices, the responsibility for servicing the military accounts is
centralized at our service center located in Norfolk, Virginia. Servicing of
non-military accounts, purchased by the full service branches, is performed by
each branch.

Through First Community Finance, which is headquartered in Richmond, Virginia,
we originate and service small consumer loans and purchase and service retail
installment sales contracts. First Community Finance began


                                       3



operations in the first quarter of 1995 with the opening of two branches in
Richmond, Virginia. As of December 31, 2001, it had twenty branches in Virginia
and North Carolina. As of December 31, 2001, $28.6 million, or 10%, of the
Company's gross contract receivables was attributable to First Community
Finance, compared to $26.9 million, or 9%, at December 31, 2000 and $20.9
million, or 8% at December 31, 1999.

TFC Enterprises, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of Delaware. Our principal
executive and administrative offices are located at 5425 Robin Hood Road, Suite
101B, Norfolk, Virginia 23513, and our telephone number is (757) 858-1400. In
this report, when we refer to "TFC Enterprises," "the Company," "TFCE," "we" or
"us" or make similar references, we mean TFC Enterprises, Inc. and its wholly
owned subsidiaries.

Industry Overview

Commercial banks and captive finance companies of major automobile manufacturers
tend to dominate most segments of the automotive finance industry. Although
consumer credit risk classifications are not standardized, institutions
generally concentrate on consumers that could be characterized as being
"low-risk" or "medium-risk" from a credit perspective. Our target market
involves consumers that are characterized as being "high-risk" from a credit
perspective.

The direct consumer loan industry established in the early 1900's has
traditionally been serviced by major national companies, smaller regional
companies and small local independent companies. Over the last 10-15 years many
of the major national companies have retreated from or reduced their involvement
in this market.

In 2001 and continuing in 2002, our management has directed TFC Enterprises
toward those sectors of the market in which management believes pricing more
closely reflects inherent risk. Areas of focus include the automobile retail
installment sales contract business and direct consumer loans, all of which
involve consumers whom have limited access to traditional sources of credit.

AUTOMOBILE FINANCE OPERATIONS (THE FINANCE COMPANY)

Dealer Selection and Program

Through its marketing efforts, The Finance Company has established relationships
with automobile dealers that originate retail installment sales contracts which
are then purchased by The Finance Company, through individual purchases. We have
relationships with both franchised automobile dealerships and independent used
car dealers that are not affiliated with us.

To achieve an acceptable rate of return and provide for credit risks, we
purchase contracts from dealers at a discount to the remaining principal
balance. In automobile retail installment sales contract purchases, the discount
is the difference between the purchase price we pay the dealer and the amount
financed, net of the cost of ancillary products such as warranty, other loss
protection products and physical damage insurance The amount of the discount at
which contracts are purchased reflects, among other things, term and credit
risk. We purchase contracts in accordance with applicable underwriting criteria
and pursuant to a Master Dealer Agreement, in the case of automobile retail
installment sales contract purchases, or an Asset Purchase Agreement, in the
case of the bulk purchases.

We believe that our dealer programs substantially benefit dealers. The programs
provide a source of financing for a group of customers which typically finds
financing difficult to obtain. Accordingly, dealers are able to sell more
vehicles and improve their profitability. In addition, we provide the following
services to dealers: (1) documentation designed to conform to applicable federal
and state laws; (2) timely response to credit applications; (3) timely payment
for approved installment contracts; and (4) access to a range of ancillary
products.

Sales and Marketing

We market to both franchised automobile dealerships and independent used car
dealers. Prospective dealers are contacted initially by our national marketing
by phone and by personal visits to dealer facilities by appropriate personnel.
In addition, we establish relationships with dealers through referrals from
existing dealers and


                                       4



independent marketing contractors. We also distribute marketing brochures and
run advertisements in trade journals and other industry publications directed to
dealers. Further, we participate at automobile dealers association meetings and
conventions.

Competition

There are numerous providers of financing for the purchase of used vehicles.
These financing sources include banks, savings and loan associations, consumer
finance companies, credit unions and financing divisions of automobile
manufacturers or automobile retailers. Many of these providers of vehicle
financing have significantly greater resources than The Finance Company and have
relationships with established dealer networks. We have focused on a segment of
the market comprised of consumers who typically do not meet the more stringent
credit requirements of the traditional sources of consumer financing. As a
result, the borrowing needs of these less credit-worthy consumers have
historically not been consistently addressed by traditional financing sources.
If, however, the other providers of consumer financing were to assert a
significantly greater effort to penetrate our targeted market segment, given
their financial strength, The Finance Company could be materially and adversely
affected by the increased competition.

Automobile Retail Installment Sales Contract Purchase Program

The Finance Company establishes relationships with dealers who meet its
financial, organizational and compliance criteria. We currently make purchases
from dealers in approximately 30 states.

The Finance Company purchases contracts pursuant to a Master Dealer Agreement.
Upon entering into a Master Dealer Agreement, we provide the dealer with
necessary documentation for originating retail installment sales contracts and
training its personnel in the use of our documentation. The Master Dealer
Agreement contains representations and warranties by the dealer to The Finance
Company on certain matters, including the security interest in the vehicle. It
also sets forth the general terms upon which retail installment contracts will
be purchased by us. The agreements are nonexclusive and do not obligate a dealer
to sell, or The Finance Company to purchase, any particular contract or volume
of contracts. The Master Dealer Agreement may be terminated at any time by us or
by the dealer (without, however, affecting either party's obligations in respect
of contracts purchased prior to termination).

Typically, a dealer will submit a customer's credit application to more than one
financing source for review. Under our program, a dealer is required to provide
us with a completed credit application that lists the applicant's liabilities,
income, credit and employment history, and other personal information bearing on
the decision to extend credit. The information from the application is then
entered into our automated application processing system and an initial
screening is performed to determine whether the applicant satisfied our
threshold credit criteria. If a credit investigation is warranted, the system
will then automatically contact the credit bureau, include the information
obtained in the applicant's electronic file and identify any characteristics of
the applicant that are outside the parameters of our credit guidelines.

The application and collected information are then analyzed by one of our credit
analysts. The credit analyst's primary concern is the ability and likelihood of
the applicant to make regular monthly payments. Secondarily, the analyst
considers the value of the collateral securing the loan. A credit analyst
evaluates the applicant's personal cash flow requirements and ability to make
regular payments. The credit analyst also considers other factors, including the
size of the monthly payment in relation to the applicant's monthly income and
other monthly payment obligations, as well as the amount of money to be financed
in relation to the purchase price and value of the vehicle. We determine
collateral value based upon the NADA's Guides on Retail and Wholesale Values and
the Kelley Blue Book.


                                       5



In addition to our standard underwriting investigation procedures, for a
military customer we require an employment letter which is a document from the
applicant's military command that details pay grade, enlistment date, time left
in the service, recent advancements or demotions, and any disciplinary action.
Contracts generally will not be purchased if the applicant has had a reduction
in rank or has had any serious disciplinary action while in the service. The
applicant's time left in service is used to determine the maximum term of the
loan. The maximum loan and payment amounts are established by an applicant's pay
grade. Every applicant in a particular pay grade earns the same salary. Pay
grades E-3's and below are generally limited to a maximum loan amount of $8,000,
while the maximum loan amount for E-4's and above is generally $12,000. A budget
margin is also calculated for each applicant and the margin generally cannot
exceed preset limits for specific pay grades.

Upon completion of the credit application review, a credit analyst will decide
whether to approve the financing as submitted, decline the financing or
conditionally approve the financing. Applicants with characteristics outside the
parameters of the credit guidelines require the approval of a senior credit
analyst or above. Conditional approval of the financing may involve amending the
proposed terms of the contract to enable an applicant to qualify under our
guidelines. Typical matters which might require amendment include requiring a
co-signer, changing the length of the term of payment, requiring a greater down
payment, substantiating certain additional credit information and requiring
proof of resolution of certain credit deficiencies as noted on the customer's
credit bureau reports. Approved, declined or conditional purchase decisions are
promptly communicated to the dealer. Prior to our funding an approved purchase,
another credit staff member completes a checklist which verifies that all
required documentation has been obtained and is accurate.

Typically, retail installment contracts are purchased by and assigned to The
Finance Company at a price that reflects a discount from the amount financed.
Most of the discount is held in a non-refundable reserve against which credit
losses are first applied. Dealers are generally advanced 75 to 80% of the amount
financed (less ancillary products) for their military customers with good credit
and 90 to 95% for non-military customers. The assigning dealer makes certain
warranties as to the validity of the contract and compliance with certain laws.
Also, the dealer generally agrees to indemnify us for any claim, defense or
set-off against the dealer that may be asserted against us by reason of the
assignment. At the time of purchase, we require either physical damage insurance
or a combination of GAP protection and total loss coverage on all automobiles
covered by the retail installment sales contracts that we purchase. To the
extent that material terms of a contract prove to be inaccurate, we generally
have the right under the Master Dealer Agreement to require the dealer to
repurchase the contract.

Bulk Purchase Program

Many dealers finance automobile sales through the use of their own funds. Prior
to March 2001, The Finance Company made bulk purchases of portfolios of seasoned
retail installment contracts from self-financing dealers in approximately 30
states. We considered only those dealers who generated sufficient business
volume, employed satisfactory credit approval procedures, and adequately
monitored and reported loan performance data. Bulk purchases are governed by an
Asset Purchase Agreement which requires the seller to make representations and
warranties to us regarding each contract purchased and the security interests in
the related vehicles. In a bulk purchase we did not have the opportunity to
verify the information relating to a retail installment contract before its
purchase by the dealer. Bulk purchases were made after the origination of the
retail installment contract. Generally, if a representation or warranty by the
dealer is breached in a bulk purchase transaction, we can require the dealer to
repurchase the applicable contract. In many cases, a special reserve or holdback
is established, against which these contracts can be charged. Before entering
into a bulk purchase relationship with a dealer, we obtained information to
ensure the dealer's compliance with licensure, bonding and organizational
requirements. We then performed extensive due diligence procedures to determine
whether to conduct business with the particular dealer.

Generally, The Finance Company purchased only the portion of a seller's
portfolio that met or exceeded its underwriting guidelines. Upon receipt of the
installment sales contracts, they were immediately reviewed for thoroughness and
accuracy. The residency and work history profile of the dealership's customers
was also reviewed, and, prior to purchase, this information on a significant
portion of accounts to be purchased is confirmed. Generally 30 days after
completing a Bulk Purchase, we confirmed by telephone with the purchasers of the
motor vehicles the


                                       6



various terms of a majority of the contracts underlying each bulk purchase. To
the extent that material terms of any contract prove to be inaccurate, we
generally have the right under the Asset Purchase Agreement to require the
dealer to repurchase the contract.

Contract Duration

Contracts in The Finance Company's point-of-sale portfolio have an initial
duration normally ranging from 18 to 60 months, with an average original
maturity of approximately 46 months. Bulk purchase contracts generally had an
average remaining maturity of 18 to 24 months at the time of purchase.

Ancillary Products

The Finance Company offers through its dealers warranty and other loss
protection products as allowed by the state. These products are provided and
underwritten by third-party vendors. Accordingly, liabilities under the
ancillary products are not our obligation. We offer these products to dealers so
that they, in turn, may provide vehicle purchasers a more complete line of
products and services. By offering these products, we are able to generate
supplementary revenue without incurring significant additional expenses. During
2001, 2000 and 1999, The Finance Company generated gross revenues of
approximately $0.4 million, $0.2 million, and $0.4 million, respectively, from
the sale of ancillary products through its dealers.

Collections

The Finance Company receives payments on purchased contracts through a number of
different means, including electronic transfer, personal check, payroll check
endorsed to it, government check (such as Social Security, disability or income
tax refund check that is endorsed to it), cashier's check, traveler's check,
money order, Western Union Quick Collect Check, bank wire transfer and cash. We
monitor payments to maintain each customer's current address and banking data.
In certain instances, a customer will make a payment at one of our contract
production offices, auto center branch or our service center.

Our underwriting guidelines dictate that United States military enlisted
personnel must, prior to their origination of a contract with a dealer, execute
an authorized allotment form. The form provides for the automatic electronic
transfer of monthly payments to The Finance Company. The process is managed by a
third-party data processor, Military Assistance Corporation. Salary allotments
are effected monthly by the respective military branch's disbursement center. On
the first day of each month immediately following a month in which allotments
are effected, the amount of such allotment is deposited into a transaction
account at Fort Knox National Bank established by Military Assistance
Corporation in the name of the obligor. The salary allotment is immediately
transferred by Military Assistance Corporation first, from the obligor's account
to a Military Assistance Corporation custodial account at Fort Knox - National
Bank, and, second, to the collection account. The allotment system enables
United States military personnel to effect timely payment of their obligations
without regard to reassignment or temporary relocation characteristic of United
States military enlisted personnel. Although it is our policy to require United
States military enlisted personnel to initially authorize the allotment of their
respective monthly payments to The Finance Company, the allotments may be
withdrawn. The mere withdrawal of an allotment authorization does not constitute
an event of default under a contract, but it could make it more difficult to
effect collections on our delinquent related receivables.

Monitoring the payment history of accounts and implementing appropriate remedial
action is the responsibility of our Collections Department within the service
center and the auto center branches. At year-end 2001, a total of 88 employees,
or 42% of The Finance Company's total full-time equivalent employees, worked in
Collections.

One of the primary responsibilities of the Collections is to monitor customer
accounts that are delinquent in payment. Collections Department personnel work
with customers to resolve payment problems and bring accounts to current status
at the earliest possible stage of delinquency. Collections Department employees
are compensated, in part, through bonuses tied to their monthly collection
performance.

When calling a customer with a delinquent account, Collections Department
personnel utilize The Finance Company's Collections Training Manual. Developed
by us, the manual specifies the procedures to follow in different circumstances
in order to maximize the effectiveness of the call. The specific action our
employees take on a delinquent account will depend on the customer's particular
circumstances as well as the past payment history of the account. However, in
all cases, our primary focus is resolving the problem causing the delinquency,
arranging a modified payment plan, or working out a settlement agreement. Each
Department employee is responsible for keeping records of all collections
activity carried out on each account and for following up on "callback" and
"broken promise" dates as appropriate. In addition, Collections personnel are
responsible for following up as necessary on bankruptcies and requesting
repossession and legal action.

When we have difficulty locating a customer, Collections personnel attempt to
find the individual through skip tracing, which utilizes various sources of
available information about a customer. Military personnel have almost no
ability to become a "skip" as long as they remain in the military. In the event
of transfer, they can be located through the military locator service, which
provides current duty station addresses and phone numbers. All communications
with and efforts to locate the customer are reflected in our data files.

In certain situations, we will repossess a vehicle. If a deficiency exists after
we repossess and sell a vehicle, we may take action to obtain a judgment and
garnishee a customer's wages and assets. From an accounting perspective,
repossessed assets are carried at the lower of the unpaid loan balance or
anticipated liquidation proceeds.


                                       8



We generally charge off accounts at the end of the month in which they become
180 days past due based on the contract. Additionally, in the month that a
repossession occurs, the carrying value of the repossessed asset is reduced
through charge-off to the lower of the unpaid contract balance or anticipated
liquidation proceeds. Once an account is charged off, it is transferred to the
Recovery Unit, a separate group of collectors who continue collection
activities. The collection activities undertaken by the Recovery Unit are
similar in many respects to those of the Collections personnel. Customers are
called as required and attempts are made to set up repayment plans or work out
settlement agreements as appropriate to a customer's circumstances. Each
Recovery Unit employee is responsible for keeping records of all collections
activity carried out on Recovery Unit accounts and for following up on callback
and broken promise dates as appropriate. The Recovery Unit is also responsible
for following up as necessary on bankruptcies and requesting repossession and
legal action.

The Finance Company's charge-off and delinquency experience is discussed more
fully in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations included in Item 7 below.

CONSUMER FINANCE OPERATIONS (First Community Finance, Inc.)

Consumer Loan Program

In its Consumer Loan Program, First Community Finance, Inc. originates direct
loans through a network of branch offices. We obtain loans through print media,
customer referrals, renewals and other sources. We receive applications
primarily from the consumer directly, either by telephone or in person at one of
our branches.

Once an application has been received, we perform a background investigation on
the applicant, which includes such things as employment and income verification,
residence verification, direct references from other creditors and review of
credit bureau files. This information is reviewed by a branch manager or
assistant manager to determine creditworthiness. If the applicant is approved,
the applicant would visit the appropriate branch to execute necessary documents
and receive funding.

Loan Origination

Most Consumer Loan Program contracts have an initial duration of 36 months or
less.

The following table sets forth First Community Finance's loan volume, as well as
the number and average size of its loans, for the periods indicated. First
Community Finance commenced operations in 1995.

First Community Finance's loan volume is discussed more fully in Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
included in Item 7 below.

Ancillary Products

In connection with its consumer loan business, First Community Finance offers
its customers credit life, credit accident and health insurance and property
insurance. Third party vendors provide and underwrite these products.


                                       9



Accordingly, liabilities under the ancillary products are not our obligations.
The products protect the customer and provide supplementary revenue to us.
During 2001, 2000, and 1999, First Community Finance generated gross revenues of
approximately $0.4 million, $0.3 million, and $0.3 million respectively from the
sale of ancillary products.

Collections

First Community Finance receives payments on consumer loans primarily through
the mail or by in-person payment at the appropriate branch. Each branch monitors
payments to maintain current information regarding each customer's current
address and banking data. Branch personnel, at times, will make a collection
through a field visit to the customer. The branch is responsible for monitoring
the payment history of the accounts and implementing appropriate remedial
action.

One of the primary responsibilities of a branch is to monitor customer accounts
that are delinquent in payment. Branch personnel work with customers to resolve
payment problems and bring accounts to current status at the earliest possible
stage of delinquency. Specific action on a delinquent account will depend on the
customer's particular circumstances as well as the past payment history of the
account. However, in all cases the primary focus is resolving the problem
causing the delinquency, arranging a modified payment plan or working out a
settlement. At times, branch personnel meet with the customers in the field or
at the branch. When First Community Finance has difficulty locating a customer,
collections personnel will attempt to find the individual by utilizing various
sources of information to which it has access. All communications with and
efforts to locate the customer are reflected in our data files.

Accounts are generally charged off at the end of the month in which they become
180 days contractually past due. Based on the contract, we continue collection
activities even after charge off. Branch personnel call customers regularly and
attempt to set up repayment plans or work out settlement agreements as
appropriate to customer's circumstances.

First Community Finance's charge off and delinquency experience is discussed
more fully in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations included in Item 7 below.

Competition

There are numerous providers of direct loans. These financing sources include
banks, savings and loan associations, consumer finance companies and credit
unions. Many of these providers have significantly greater resources than First
Community Finance. We have focused on a segment of the market comprised of
consumers who typically do not meet the more stringent credit requirements of
the traditional sources of consumer financing. As a result, the borrowing needs
of the less credit-worthy consumer have historically not been consistently
addressed by traditional financing sources. If, however, the other providers of
consumer financing were to assert a significantly greater effort to penetrate
our targeted market segment, given their financial strength, we could be
materially and adversely affected by the increased competition.

INFORMATION SYSTEMS

We process all data relating to our contract receivables and financial reporting
through a distributed network of computers. Our computer systems are networked
together to provide information to management for analysis as well as automatic
posting to the general ledger for financial reporting purposes. The systems
provide for complete contract processing from the purchase of the contract,
payment to the dealer, posting of payments and all other collection activity
from the inception date of the installment contract. Our systems operate on
software that has been adapted to the specific manner in which we operate our
business.

We have invested in technology that enables us to electronically process credit
applications. This technology reduces processing time and improves
standardization of credit underwriting without significant staff increases.
TFC's loan servicing software systems interface with a predictive dialing system
designed to enhance collection activity by increasing the number of customer
contacts per collector hour. The system dials multiple telephone


                                       10



numbers simultaneously based on parameters defined by the Collections
Department. Calls are connected automatically to a collector at the same time
the customer's account is displayed on the collector's computer screen. The
process permits better control of calling patterns for more effective calling
and improved customer contact rates. By eliminating busy signals, no answers and
answering machines, the system enables the collector to speak to more customers.
The system also reports collection performance by collector for improved
supervision and results.

First Community Finance uses a computer system designed for the consumer loan
industry. Each branch processes all data relating to that branch on a computer
within the branch. The system provides for complete contract processing from the
closing of the loan, posting of payments and all collection activity. These
systems are networked together to provide consolidated management information
and automatic posting to our general ledger for financial reporting.

We believe that we have sufficient management information systems in place, or
in the process of being implemented, to meet our current and near-term future
requirements.

Regulation

Our businesses are subject to regulation and licensing under various federal,
state and local statutes and regulations. Certain states where we operate have
adopted motor vehicle retail installment sales acts or variations, consumer
finance acts and third party debt collections acts. These laws regulate, among
other things, the interest rates and terms and conditions of motor vehicle
retail installment sales contracts. These state laws also impose restrictions on
direct consumer loan transactions, require disclosures in addition to the
requirements under federal law and impose specific statutory liabilities upon
creditors who fail to comply.

Numerous federal and state consumer protection laws and related regulations
impose substantive disclosure requirements upon lenders and servicers involved
in motor vehicle financing, (affecting The Finance Company) and direct consumer
loans, (affecting First Community Finance). Some of the federal laws and
regulations include the Truth-in-Lending Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act,
the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt
Collection Practices Act, the Motor Vehicle Information and Cost Savings Act,
the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, the Federal Reserve Board's Regulations B and Z,
the Graham-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 and the Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief
Act.

In addition, the Federal Trade Commission has adopted the holder-in-due-course
rule. This rule has the effect of subjecting persons that finance retail
installment credit transactions (and certain related lenders and their
assignees) to all claims and defenses which the purchaser could assert against
the seller of the goods and services. A regulation which applies specifically to
the sale of used automobiles is the Federal Trade Commission's rule on Sale of
Used Vehicles. It requires all sellers of used vehicles to prepare, complete and
display a buyer's guide which explains the warranty coverage for these vehicles.
The Federal Trade Commission's Credit Practices Rules impose additional
restrictions on sales contract provisions and credit practices.

We believe that we are in compliance in all material respects with all
applicable laws and regulations.

Employees

At December 31, 2001, we had 276 full-time equivalent employees. No employees
are currently covered by collective bargaining agreements. We believe that our
employee relations are excellent.

                    Forward-looking and Cautionary Statements

We caution you that this report and other written and oral information presented
by our management from time to time, including but not limited to reports to
shareholders, quarterly shareholder letters, filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, news releases, discussions with analysts and investor
presentations, include "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are subject to the safe harbor
created by those acts. Among other things, these statements relate to our
financial condition, results of operation and business. More specifically, these
forward-looking statements address our business strategies, market potential,
potential for future point-of-sale and bulk purchases, future financial
performance and other matters that reflect management's expectations as of the
date the statements are made. These forward-looking statements are generally
identified by the words "believes," "anticipates," "plans," "expects," "seeks,"
and similar expressions which are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon management's
knowledge at the time of the statements and assumptions about future events and
involve certain risks and uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual
results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future

There are a number of important factors that could cause our actual results to
differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements. These
factors include, without limitation: our dependence on our lines of credit; our
ability to continue to obtain adequate funding under similar terms to purchase
contracts; intense competition within our markets: the fluctuating interest
rates associated with our line of credit, our reliance on estimates of future
recoveries, based on historical recoveries, from prior and future years
charge-offs and the impact of retail installment contract defaults. Please refer
to a discussion of these and other factors in this report and our other filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We caution you that the foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive. We
do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement that may be made from

Selected Financial Data included in Item 6 above and the Consolidated Financial
Statements of TFC Enterprises, Inc., including the notes thereto included in
Item 8 below.

                                     General
                                     -------

We began operations in 1977 in Alexandria, Virginia, with the founding of The
Finance Company by Robert S. Raley, Jr., our current Chairman of the Board and
Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Raley has spent his entire 42-year career
exclusively within the consumer finance industry. We now conduct consumer
finance operations primarily through two wholly owned subsidiaries, The Finance
Company and First Community Finance, Inc.

Through The Finance Company, we purchase and service retail installment sales
contracts originated by automobile and motorcycle dealers in the sale of
vehicles, consisting of new and used automobiles, vans, light trucks, and
motorcycles on an individual basis. Retail installment sales contracts are
acquired on an individual basis after we have reviewed and approved the vehicle
purchaser's credit application. The primary focus of our business is retail
installment sales contracts originated by dealers with consumers who are United
States enlisted military personnel, in the E-1 through E-4 pay grades and
non-military consumers who do not have access to traditional sources of credit.
To achieve an acceptable rate of return and provide for credit risks, contracts
are purchased from dealers at a discount to the remaining principal balance.
Most of the discount is held in a nonrefundable reserve against which credit
losses are first applied. We are based in Norfolk, Virginia, with nine Contract
Production Offices and three full service branches throughout the United States.

To maximize our results in 2001, we focused our efforts on our core businesses,
automobile retail installment sales contract at The Finance Company and Direct
Consumer Loans at First Community Finance. In order to maintain this focus and
maximize our strongest business lines, we have phased out as of March 2001 other
business lines such as Bulk Acquisitions from "Buy Here Pay Here" automobile
dealers.

Our purchases provide us with the ability to direct the credit underwriting
process at the initiation of the retail installment sales contract.
Participating dealers benefit by having a source of financing for a group of
customers who typically find financing difficult to obtain. This financing
allows a dealer to increase the number of vehicles sold and improves dealer
profitability. Consumers also benefit because the financing we provide enables
them to purchase a vehicle they otherwise might not be able to buy. We utilize a
network of nine strategically located contract production offices and three full
service branches to underwrite and purchase contracts from participating
dealers. As of December 31, 2001, $227.8 million, or 82%, of our gross contract
receivables represented point-of-sale purchases, compared to $202.5 million, or
68%, at December 31, 2000 and $175.6 million, or 68%, at December 31, 1999.

In the bulk purchase business, we had emphasized acquisitions of portfolios of
seasoned retail installment sales contracts. These contracts normally had a
payment history of at least three months. While the typical bulk purchase was
approximately $250,000, we had, at times, purchased portfolios totaling more
than $12 million. As of December 31, 2001, $20.3 million, or 7% of our gross
contract receivables was attributable to bulk purchases, compared to $64.5
million, or 22%, at December 31, 2000, and $60.9 million, or 24% at December 31,
1999.

Although we underwrite and purchase contracts through the various contract
production offices, the responsibility for servicing the military accounts is
centralized at our service center located in Norfolk, Virginia. Servicing of
non-military accounts, purchased by the full service branches, is performed by
each branch.

Through First Community Finance, which is headquartered in Richmond, Virginia,
we originate and service small consumer loans and purchase and service retail
installment sales contracts. First Community Finance began operations in the
first quarter of 1995 with the opening of two branches in Richmond, Virginia. As
of December 31, 2001, it had twenty branches in Virginia and North Carolina. As
of December 31, 2001, $28.6 million, or 10%, of


                                       16



the Company's gross contract receivables was attributable to First Community
Finance, compared to $26.9 million, or 9%, at December 31, 2000 and $20.9
million, or 8% at December 31, 1999.

                              Results of Operations
                              ---------------------

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Net income and earnings per basic common share

We reported net income of $5.1 million, or $0.44 per basic common share, in
2001, compared to net income of $4.1 million, or $0.36 per basic common share in
2000 and net income of $6.5 million, or $0.57 per basic common share in 1999.
The increase in net income and earnings per share in 2001 compared to 2000 was
primarily due to two items-lower cost of borrowed funds and lower operating
expenses.

Volume

Gross contracts purchased or originated in 2001 totaled $224.3 million, compared
to $268.7 million in 2000 and $230.2 million in 1999. The decrease in 2001
volume compared to 2000 was attributable to the phasing out of the Bulk business
from "Buy Here Pay Here" automobile dealers starting in March 2001. The increase
in 2000 volume compared to 1999 reflected growth in all business lines as shown
in the following table. The increases are a result of the continuing acceptance
of the programs we offer.

Gross contracts purchased or originated were as follows:

At year end 2001, we were purchasing automobile retail installment contracts
through nine Contract Production Offices ("CPO's") located in Norfolk, Virginia;
Killeen, Texas; Jacksonville, Florida; San Diego, California; Tacoma,
Washington; Clarksville, Tennessee; Columbus, Georgia; Wichita Falls, Texas;
Honolulu, Hawaii; and three full service branches located in Lakewood, Colorado;
Covina, California; and Fountain Valley, California.

In 2001, First Community Finance originated $38.8 million in consumer finance
contracts, compared to $37.4 million in 2000 and $28.1 million in 1999. The
growth is primarily attributable to the maturing of the existing


                                       17



offices and their ability to capture a larger market share in the communities
they serve and to the purchase of two offices from a competitor in 2000. All
consumer finance contract originations are produced and serviced by 20 offices
located in Virginia and North Carolina. The number of offices increased from
sixteen in 1998 to seventeen in 1999 to twenty-one in 2000 and decreased to
twenty in 2001. First Community Finance closed one office in North Carolina
during 2001.

Net interest revenue

Net interest revenue was $32.3 million in 2001 compared to $33.1 million in 2000
and $34.9 million in 1999. The decline in net interest revenue in 2001 compared
to 2000 was primarily due to lower yields on our earning assets resulting from
the implementation of a more competitive program offered to the dealers and to a
decrease in the amount of contract discount accreted to interest revenue as a
yield enhancement because of the uncertain economic conditions. The decline in
net interest revenue in 2000 compared to 1999 was primarily due to two items-
higher cost of borrowed funds due to higher interest rates and lower yields on
our earning assets resulting from the implementation of a more competitive
program offered to the dealers.

The yield on interest earning assets was 20.47% for 2001 compared to 22.26% and
23.60% for the years of 2000 and 1999. The decrease in yield in 2001 compared to
2000 reflects a more competitive program offered to the dealers, a decrease in
the amount of contract discount accreted to interest revenue as a yield
enhancement because of uncertain economic conditions, and a decline in the Bulk
portfolio which carried a higher yield. The decrease in yield in 2000 compared
to 1999 reflects a more competitive program offered to the dealers and to a
decrease in the amount of contract discount accreted to interest revenue as a
yield enhancement because of increased charge-off levels in 2000.

The cost of interest bearing liabilities was 9.66% for 2001, compared to 10.37%
and 9.07%, for 2000 and 1999. The decrease in 2001 compared to 2000 reflects a
lower overall one-month LIBOR rate for 2001. The increase in 2000 compared to
1999 reflects a higher overall one-month LIBOR rate for 2000.

Other revenue

Other revenue was $1.9 million in 2001 compared to $2.1 million in 2000 and $1.4
million in 1999. The decrease in 2001 compared to 2000 reflects lower fee income
by Recoveries Inc which ceased operations in 2001. The increase


                                       18



in 2000 compared to 1999 was the result of the increase in interest revenue on
the larger balance of restricted cash related to our asset securitization
activity and an increase in fee income generated by Recoveries, Inc.

Operating expense was $23.7 million in 2001 compared to $27.4 million in 2000
and $24.4 million in 1999. The $3.7 million decrease in 2001 compared to 2000
reflected the downsizing of the Bulk division and two small subsidiaries The
$3.0 million increase in 2000 over 1999 reflected increased salaries and
benefits relating to increased staffing needs as additional collection personnel
were necessary to service the larger receivable portfolio, increased staffing in
the national sales department, increased occupancy expenses related to the full
year cost of the additional contract production offices opened in 1999, and
additional costs associated the with the growth of two smaller subsidiaries.

Operating expenses as a percent of interest earning assets decreased to 9.42%
for 2001 from 11.90% and 12.00% in 2000 and 1999. The decrease in the operating
expense ratio in 2001 over 2000 resulted from the downsizing of the Bulk
division and two small subsidiaries. The decrease in the operating expense ratio
in 2000 over 1999 resulted from increasing net contract receivables without a
proportional increase in operating expense.

Provision for income taxes

We recorded a $3.7 million tax provision for 2001 compared to a $ 3.0 million
tax provision in 2000 and a $4.9 million tax provision in 1999. The effective
tax rate in 2001 of 41.9% and in 2000 of 42.8% is higher than the expected
combined federal and state tax rates due primarily to goodwill amortization that
is not deductible for tax purposes.

In 1993, contingent interest on our convertible notes was considered deductible
for Federal income tax purposes but was treated as non-deductible for income tax
expense in our financial statements. We are continuing to negotitate the IRS
regarding the deductibility of the contingent interest.

Assets

Total assets decreased by $6.2 million, or 2%, to $246.8 million at December 31,
2001, from $253.0 million at December 31, 2000. The decrease was primarily
attributable to a decrease in net contract receivables due to the phasing out of
Bulk purchases which was offset by an increase in restricted cash related to our
asset securitization activity.

Net contract receivables

Net contract receivables were $209.3 million, or 85% of total assets at December
31, 2001, compared to $218.6 million, or 86% of total assets at December 31,
2000.

Liabilities

Total liabilities were $195.7 million at December 31, 2001, an decrease of $11.3
million, or 5%, from $207.0 million at December 31, 2000. The decrease in
liabilities in 2001 reflected decreased borrowings as the result of the decrease
in net contract receivables. Liabilities represented 79% of total liabilities
and equity at December 31, 2001 compared to 82% at December 31, 2000.

                           Credit Quality and Reserves
                           ---------------------------

Net charge-off of auto finance contract receivables

Net charge-off (net of recoveries) to the allowance for credit losses and
nonrefundable reserve were $36.2 million in 2001, or 16.4% of average net
contract receivables, compared to $33.9 million, or 16.5%, in 2000, and $27.0
million, or 14.6% in 1999.

Provision for credit losses on auto finance contract receivables

Our primary business involves purchasing installment sales contracts at a
discount from the principal balance. A portion of this discount represents
anticipated credit loss and based upon projected loss experience, is held in a
nonrefundable reserve against which future credit losses will first be applied.
The remaining portion of the discount, if any, is recorded as unearned discount
and accreted to income using the interest method over the contractual life of
the related receivables. Additional amounts necessary to cover estimated future
credit losses are first reclassified from unearned discount to nonrefundable
reserve then, if necessary, an amount is charged to income sufficient to
maintain the combined allowance for credit losses and nonrefundable reserve at
an amount considered by management to be adequate to absorb estimated future
credit losses on the outstanding contract receivables.

Provision for credit losses is dependent on a number of factors, including, but
not limited to, the level and trend of delinquencies and net charge-off, the
amount of nonrefundable and refundable dealer reserves and the overall economic
conditions in the markets in which we operate. Due to the inherent uncertainty
involved in predicting the future performance of these factors, there can be no
assurance regarding the future level of provision for credit losses.

Reserves on auto finance contract receivables

The static pool reserve methodology is used to analyze and reserve for our
credit losses. This methodology allows us to stratify our portfolio into
separate and identifiable annual pools. The loss performance of these annual
pools is analyzed monthly to determine the adequacy of the reserves. The loss
performance to date combined with estimated future losses by pool year
establishes the estimated loss for each pool year. These combined estimated
losses are reduced by estimated future recoveries that are based on historical
recovery performance to establish the estimated required reserve for credit
losses. Estimates are reviewed regularly and if necessary, will be revised to
reflect historical experience if it deviates materially from the estimates. In
the quarter ended December 31, 2001 $0.7 million was reclassified from unearned
discount to non-refundable reserves due to the uncertain economic conditions. In
the quarter ended September 30, 2000, $1.8 million was reclassified from
unearned discount to non-refundable reserves to address increased charge-off.
These reclassifications reduce the amount of unearned discount to be accreted to
income over the contractual life of the related receivables, which impacts
future interest revenue.

At December 31, 2001, the combination of allowance for credit losses,
nonrefundable reserve and unearned discount totaled $15.1 million, or 7.4%, of
gross auto finance contract receivables, net of unearned interest revenue
compared to $26.2 million, or 11.7% at December 31, 2000. The decrease in the
percentage of reserves to contract receivables


                                       20



in 2001 compared to 2000 is the result of the phase-out of the bulk purchases
which historically has carried a higher charge-off percentage.

The reserves as a percentage of gross auto finance contract receivables net of
unearned interest at December 31, 2001, of 7.4% are less than net charge-off as
a percentage of average net contracts receivable for 2001, of 16.4%. This
difference exists primarily because the reserves include an estimate of future
recoveries on prior year charge-off and future recoveries on current year
charge-off that are not reflected in the current year charge-off percentage.
These estimated future recoveries are based on historical recovery performance
and this estimate is an integral part of the evaluation of the adequacy of the
reserves performed by management quarterly. In addition, we have increased our
penetration of ancillary products such as warranty and other products that
minimize the loss incurred because of the difference between the debtors
insurance coverage and the contract balance that occurs when the collateral is a
total loss or is stolen. Finally the ratio is lower due to an increase in the
portion of the portfolio with lower expected loss because of the credit profile
of the debtor.

Our refundable dealer reserve decreased to $0.7 million at December 31, 2001
compared with $2.5 million at December 31, 2000. Under certain of our bulk
programs, contracts from dealers were purchased under a refundable, rather than
nonrefundable reserve relationship. Under certain circumstances, we may have to
remit some or all of the refundable reserve back to the dealer. No such
liability exists under a nonrefundable reserve relationship. Accordingly, the
refundable reserve is carried as a liability on our Consolidated Balance Sheet
and is not included in the calculation of our reserve ratio.

Consumer finance charge-off and reserves (First Community Finance)

Net charge-off (net of recoveries) of consumer finance contracts totaled $1.1
million or 3.88% in 2001 compared to $0.6 million or 2.92% in 2000 and $0.5
million or 2.47% in 1999. The provision for credit losses was $1.1 million in
2001, $0.7 million in 2000 and $0.5 million 1999, and the allowance for credit
losses was $1.1 million or 3.93% of outstanding gross contract receivables at
December 31, 2001, compared to $0.9 million or 3.40% of contract receivables at
December 31, 2000 and $0.8 million or 3.94% of contract receivables at December
31, 1999. Management has established the level of the allowance that it
considers to be adequate based on First Community Finance's loss experience.

Delinquencies

Gross auto finance contract receivables that were 60 days or more past due
totaled $15.2 million, or 6.12% of gross auto finance contract receivables at
December 31, 2001, compared to $16.1 million, or 6.06%, at December 31, 2000.
Gross auto finance contract receivables that were 30 days or more past due
totaled $22.5 million, or 9.09% of gross auto finance contract receivables at
December 31, 2001, compared to $25.1 million, or 9.42%, at December 31, 2000.

Gross consumer finance receivables, originated by First Community Finance, that
were 60 days or more past due totaled $1.3 million, or 4.7% of gross receivables
at December 31, 2001, compared to $0.9 million, or 3.3% at December 31, 2000.
Gross consumer finance receivables, originated by First Community Finance, that

at December 31, 2001, compared to $1.4 million, or 5.0% at December 31, 2000.

Consistent with standard industry practice, we measure delinquency at each month
end by classifying a contract that is unpaid for two monthly payments as 30 days
delinquent and a contract that is unpaid for three monthly payments as 60 days
delinquent.

Cash Flows

As shown on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents
decreased by $1.2 million in 2001, to $0.4 million at December 31, 2001. The
decrease reflected $11.5 million of net cash used in financing activities which
was offset by $8.7 million in net cash provided by operating activities and by
$1.6 million of net cash provided by investing activities. Net cash provided by
investing activities principally reflected $7.4 million in net repayments of
contract receivables and a $5.5 million increase in restricted cash related to
the receivable backed notes. Net cash used in financing activities reflected
$14.0 million of net borrowing on our revolving lines of credit, $23.5 million
net payments received under the receivable backed notes, $1.8 million of new
subordinated debt, and $3.9 million paid on outstanding subordinated debt. Cash
and cash equivalents decreased by $0.7 million in 2000, to $1.6 million at
December 31, 2000. The decrease reflected $6.8 million of net cash provided by
operating activities and $39.3 million in net cash provided by financing, offset
by $46.8 million of net cash used in investing activities. Net cash used in
investing activities principally reflected $37.4 million in net purchases of
contract receivables and a $8.1 million increase in restricted cash related to
the receivable backed notes. Net cash provided by financing activities reflected
$8.9 million of net payments on our revolving lines of credit, $24.9 million
received under the receivable backed notes, $7.7 million of new subordinated
debt and $2.2 million paid on outstanding subordinated debt.

Liquidity Management

In March 2002, we placed $64.6 million of automobile receivables-backed
securities. The notes are expected to have an average life of 1.3 years with a
coupon to the investors of approximately 4.23%. The coupon cost compared to the
weighted average APR of the loans of approximately 18.22% leaves a gross
interest spread of approximately 13.99%.

We have $6.1. million of subordinated debt principal payments due in 2002. In
February, we deferred $1.6 million of this debt to payments starting in January
2003. $2.0 million is due in June 2002. The remaining $2.5 million is related to
the 12% and 15% notes and are expected to renew upon maturity. We intend to fund
the remaining amounts through cash flow from operations. We also hope to issue
additional subordinated debt in 2002, but we cannot offer assurance we will be
able to find investors interested in acquiring this debt. These payments, if not
replaced by additional subdebt, do however, negatively impact the availability
under our primary line of credit.

Currently, TFC's principal sources of borrowing are (i) a revolving line of
credit (the "GE Facility") in the maximum amount of $50 million until July 1,
2002 when it is reduced to $40 million, guaranteed by TFC's parent company, TFC
Enterprises, Inc., with General Electric Capital Corporation ("GE Capital") and
(ii) a revolving line of credit (the "Westside Facility") in the maximum amount
of $75 million, with Westside Funding Corporation, a special purpose funding
vehicle administered by WestLB. The GE Facility is scheduled to terminate on
January 2, 2003. There can be no assurance that a new credit facility will be
executed or available when the GE Facility expires. If a new credit facility is
not executed, then TFC will be required to seek alternative financing sources
and repay its outstanding balance on or before the expiration of the GE
Facility. No assurance can be given that alternative financing sources in
addition to the Westside Facility would be available in such event. TFC entered
into the


                                       23



Westside Facility in June 2001 due to a reduction in the maximum amount of the
GE Facility and to facilitate future securitizations. The Westside Facility is
scheduled to expire on January 1, 2004.

Dividends

We did not declare dividends on our common stock during the years ended December
31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, nor do we anticipate paying cash dividends in the
foreseeable future. If and when we decide to declare cash dividends, the amount
would be limited by certain provisions of our various credit agreements.

                     Market Risk Disclosure and Risk Factors
                     ---------------------------------------

In evaluating TFC Enterprises, prospective investors should consider carefully
all of the information set forth throughout this Report and, in particular,
should evaluate the following risk factors.

Defaults on Retail Installment Contracts

We are engaged in consumer finance activities with consumers who have limited
access to traditional sources of consumer credit. The inability of an individual
to obtain financing through traditional credit sources is generally due to such
individual's past credit history or insufficient cash to make the required down
payment. As a result, retail installment contracts purchased by The Finance
Company or originated by First Community finance are generally with consumers
who are considered to have a higher risk of default on a retail installment
contract than certain other consumers. Accordingly, we engage in consumer loan
activities which typically have a higher risk of loss than those of other
consumer financings. While we believe that our expertise with this type of
credit customer enables us to evaluate and price accurately the higher risk
associated with our business, a significant economic downturn in the markets in
which we operate could materially increase the number of charged-off and
delinquent retail installment contracts as compared to our historical losses. If
we were to experience a material increase in charge-off or delinquencies, our
profitability could be adversely affected.

See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations--Credit Quality and Reserves."

Competition

There are numerous providers of financing for the consumers targeted by TFC
Enterprises, Inc. Those financing sources include commercial banks, savings and
loan associations, consumer finance companies, credit unions, financing
divisions of automobile manufacturers or automobile retailers, small sales
contract companies and other consumer lenders. Many of those providers have
significantly greater financial resources than we and have relationships with
established networks. We have focused on a segment of the market composed of
consumers who typically do not meet the more stringent credit requirements of
the traditional consumer financing sources and whose needs, as a result, have
not been addressed consistently by such financing sources. If, however, the
other providers of consumer finance were to assert a significantly greater
effort to penetrate our targeted market segment, we could be materially and
adversely affected.

Regulation

Our business is subject to regulation and licensing under various federal, state
and local statutes and regulations. Our business operations are conducted in
approximately 30 states and, accordingly, the laws and regulations of such
states govern our operations conducted in those states. Most states where we
operate limit the interest rate, fees and other charges that may be imposed by,
or prescribe certain other terms of, the contracts that we purchase and define
our rights to repossess and sell collateral. In addition, we are required to be,
and are, licensed to conduct our operations in certain states. As we expand our
operations into other states, we are required to comply with the laws of such
states.


                                       24



An adverse change in those laws or regulations could have a material adverse
effect on our profitability by, among other things, limiting the states in which
we may operate or the interest rate that may be charged on retail installment
contracts or restricting our ability to realize the value of any collateral
securing contracts. We are not aware of any materially adverse legislation
currently pending in any jurisdiction where we currently transact business.

Restrictions on the Payment of Dividends

We currently intend to retain our earnings to finance the growth and development
of our business. Accordingly, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in
the foreseeable future.

Effect of Certain Charter, Bylaw and Statutory Provisions

Certain provisions of TFC Enterprises, Inc.'s Amended and Restated Certificate
of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws could delay or frustrate the
removal of incumbent directors. These provisions could make more difficult a
merger, tender offer or proxy contest involving TFC Enterprises, even if such
events could be beneficial, in the short term, to the interest of the
stockholders. For example, the Certificate of Incorporation provides for a
classified Board of Directors and for certain limitations on the calling of a
special meeting of stockholders. The Bylaws require advance notice of
stockholder proposals and nominations of directors. We also are subject to
provisions of Delaware corporation law that prohibit a publicly-held Delaware
corporation from engaging in a broad range of business combinations with a
person, or interested shareholder who, together with affiliates and associates,
owns 15% or more of the corporation's common stock for three years after the
person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is
approved in a prescribed manner. Those provisions could discourage or make more
difficult a merger, tender, offer or similar transaction, even if favorable to
our stockholders.

Authorized Preferred and Common Stock

Pursuant to our Certificate of Incorporation, shares of preferred stock and
Common Stock may be issued in the future without further stockholder approval
and upon such terms and conditions, and having such rights, privileges and
preferences, as the Board of Directors may determine. The rights of the holders
of Common Stock will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, any
preferred stock that my be issued in the future. The issuance of preferred stock
provides desirable flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and
other corporation transactions. However, Preferred Stock could have the effect
of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or effectively
preventing a third party from acquiring, a majority of the outstanding voting
stock of TFC Enterprises. We have not present plans to issue any shares of
preferred stock.

Dependence Upon Key Executive Officers

Our growth and development to date have been largely dependent upon the services
of key executive officers. The loss of a significant number of these officers
could have a material adverse effect on TFC Enterprises.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Financial Accounting Standards Board Statements No. 133 and 138 "Accounting for
Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities" became effective
January 1, 2001. Statements No. 133 and 138 require that derivatives, as defined
by the Statements, be recorded for financial reporting purposes at fair value.
Changes in fair value are reported directly through the statement of income
unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. Adoption of these Statements
did not have and are not expected to have a material impact on our financial
condition or results of operations.


                                       25



In July, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued two statements -
Statement 141, Business Combination, and Statement 142, Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets, which will potentially impact the Company's accounting for
its reported goodwill and other intangible assets. Statement 141 eliminates the
pooling method for accounting for business combinations, requires that
intangible assets that meet certain criteria be reported separately from
goodwill, and requires the recording of negative goodwill arising from a
business combination as an extraordinary gain. Statement 142 eliminates the
amortization of goodwill and other intangibles that are determined to have an
indefinite life and requires, at a minimum, annual impairment tests for goodwill
and other intangible assets that are determined to have an indefinite life.

Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 144 "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" became effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2001. Statement No. 144 requires that one
accounting model be used for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale,
whether previously held and used or newly acquired.

The Company has not yet completed its full assessment of the effects of
Statements 141, 142, and 144 on its financial statements and so is uncertain as
to the impact. The standards generally are required to be implemented by the
Company in its 2002 financial statements.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our operations require substantial borrowing to provide funding for the retail
installment contracts purchased by The Finance Company and originated by First
Community Finance. Consequently, profitability is impacted by the difference
between the rate of interest paid on the funds we borrow and the rate of
interest charged on the retail installment contracts, which rate in some states
is limited by law. The floating interest rate for borrowings under the line of
credit are equal to the average one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, or
LIBOR rate, plus a spread. Thus, future increases in interest rates could
adversely affect our profitability. During 2001 and 2000, we mitigated a
substantial portion of this interest rate risk by the placement of asset backed
securities with fixed interest rates over the anticipated period required for
those receivables to liquidate.

We also believe we have certain flexibility to increase the discount at which
retail installment contracts are purchased, or to increase the rate of interest
charged on future retail installment contracts (to the extent not limited by
state law), in order to offset the adverse impact of any interest rate increase
on profitability. If one-month LIBOR averaged 10% more in 2001 than in 2000, net
income would decrease by approximately $0.5 million. These amounts are
determined by considering the impact of the hypothetical interest rates on our
borrowing cost, short-term investment balances, and interest rate cap agreement.
These analyses do not consider the effects of the reduced level of overall
economic activity that could exist in such an environment. Further, in the event
of a change of such magnitude, management would likely take actions to further
mitigate our exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the
specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, the sensitivity
analysis assumes no changes in our financial structure.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Summary of significant accounting policies

Organization and business

TFC Enterprises Inc. ("TFCE") is a holding company with two primary wholly-owned
subsidiaries, The Finance Company ("TFC") and First Community Finance, Inc.
("FCF"). TFCE has no significant operations of its own. TFC specializes in
purchasing and servicing installment sales contracts originated by automobile
and motorcycle dealers involved in the sale of new and used automobiles, vans,
light trucks, and motorcycles (collectively "vehicles") on an individual basis
("point-of-sale" purchase). Based in Norfolk, Virginia, TFC also has nine
contract production offices and three full service branches throughout the
United States in communities with a large concentration of military personnel.
FCF specializes in the direct origination and servicing of small consumer loans.
FCF operates 20 branches throughout Virginia and North Carolina.

Principles of consolidation

The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of TFCE and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries, (collectively, the "Company"). All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are defined as cash and overnight repurchase
agreements, exclusive of restricted cash.

Restricted cash

Restricted cash relates to cash collected on contract receivables which are the
collateral for the automobile receivables-backed notes. The restricted cash is
used to pay the principal and interest on the automobile receivables-backed
notes.

Contract Receivables

Contract receivables that management has the intent and ability to hold for the
foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at their outstanding
unpaid principal balances reduced by any charge-off or valuation accounts and
net of any unamortized deferred service fees and unamortized discounts on
purchased loans.

Credit losses

TFC

The Company's primary business involves purchasing installment sales contracts
at a discount from the remaining principal balance on both a bulk and
point-of-sale basis. A portion of this discount represents anticipated credit
loss and based upon projected loss experience, is held in a nonrefundable
reserve against which future credit losses will first be applied. The remaining
portion, if any, of the discount is recorded as unearned discount and accreted
to income as discussed below. Additional amounts necessary to cover estimated
future credit losses, if any, are first reclassified from unearned discount to
nonrefundable reserve then, if necessary, an amount is charged to income
sufficient to maintain the combined allowance for credit losses and
nonrefundable reserve at an amount considered by management to be adequate to
absorb estimated future credit losses on the outstanding contract receivables.


                                       32



Management evaluates the reasonableness of the assumptions used in projecting
the loss experience by reviewing historical credit loss experience,
delinquencies, repossession and other recovery trends, the size of the finance
contract portfolio and general economic conditions and trends. Historical credit
loss experience is monitored on a static pool basis. Contract originations,
subsequent charge-off and recoveries are assigned to annual pools and the pool
performance is monitored separately. Projected recoveries are considered in
reserves anticipated for credit losses based on undiscounted amounts. If
necessary, any assumptions used will be changed in the future to reflect
historical experience to the extent it deviates materially from that which was
assumed.

It is generally the Company's policy, related to the installment sales contracts
purchased by TFC, to charge its nonrefundable reserve and then the allowance for
credit losses for all contract receivables which are 180 days past due. Any
amounts collected subsequent to being charged off are restored to the
nonrefundable reserve.

The carrying value of repossessed assets is reduced, through charge-off, to the
lower of the unpaid contract balance or anticipated liquidation proceeds.

FCF

The Company's policy related to unsecured consumer contracts originated by FCF
is to establish and maintain, through a charge to income, an allowance for
credit losses, based on historical credit experience of FCF and the industry.
Generally, consumer finance receivables which are 180 days past due are charged
against this allowance for credit losses. Any amounts collected subsequent to
being charged off are restored to the allowance for credit losses.

Equipment and leasehold improvements

Equipment and leasehold improvements are recorded at cost, less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method
over each asset's estimated useful life, generally five to seven years.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets consist of a purchased dealer list and goodwill, which are
being amortized using the straight-line method over periods of 15 years and 20
years, respectively. The carrying values of the intangible assets are reviewed
on an ongoing basis. If this review indicates that the intangibles will not be
fully recoverable, as determined based on estimated undiscounted cash flows
generated by the intangible assets over their remaining lives, their carrying
values will be reduced to the recoverable amounts using discounted cash flows.
No impairment losses have been recorded for any period presented.

Income taxes

The Company uses the liability method to account for income taxes. Under the
liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on
differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis
of assets and liabilities (i.e., temporary differences) and are measured at the
enacted rates that will be in effect when these differences are expected to
reverse.

Income recognition

Interest revenue from precomputed contract receivables, simple interest-bearing
contract receivables and revenue from insurance commissions are recognized using
the interest method. Loan origination service fees and certain direct costs are
capitalized and recognized as an adjustment of the yield of the related loan
using the interest method.


                                       33



The portion of the discount arising from purchases of contract receivables which
is not considered to be nonrefundable reserve for credit losses (see discussion
above) is recorded as a unearned discount. Unearned discounts are deferred and
accreted to income using the interest method over the contractual life of the
related receivables. The Company periodically reassesses the amount of contract
purchase discount accreted to interest revenue to reflect changes in delinquency
and charge-off experience.

Accrual of interest revenue and accretion of unearned discounts continue until
contracts are collected in full, become ninety days contractually delinquent, or
are charged-off (see discussion above) consistent with practices generally
applied by consumer finance companies.

Deferred Financing Costs

External costs incurred to obtain financing are deferred and amortized on the
effective interest method over the anticipated term of the borrowing. Deferred
financing costs of $1.9 million and $1.8 million at December 31, 2001 and 2000
are included in other assets.

Derivative Instruments

The Company uses derivative instruments to minimize significant unplanned
fluctuations in earnings that are caused by interest-rate volatility. The
Company's goal is to manage interest-rate sensitivity by modifying the
repricing or maturity characteristics of certain balance-sheet assets and
liabilities so that the net-interest margin is not, on a material basis,
adversely affected by movements in interest rates. As a result of interest-rate
fluctuations, hedged assets and liabilities will appreciate or depreciate in
market value. The effect of this unrealized appreciation or depreciation will
generally be offset by income or loss on the derivative instruments that are
linked to the hedged assets and liabilities.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those
resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Components of
comprehensive income are required to be reported in a financial statement that
is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company
has no other comprehensive income items for any periods presented.

Stock-based compensation

As permitted by the provisions of FAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based
Compensation" (FAS No. 123) the Company continues to account for stock-based
compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and
related Interpretations.

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding, excluding any dilutive effects of options and convertible
securities. Diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number
of common and common equivalent shares, including dilutive stock options and
convertible securities outstanding during the year.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Risks and Uncertainties

In its normal course of business, the Company encounters two significant types
of risk: economic and regulatory. There are three components of economic risk:
interest rate risk, credit risk and market risk. The Company is subject to
interest rate risk to the degree that its interest-bearing liabilities mature or
reprice more rapidly or on a different basis than its interest-earning assets.
Credit risk is the risk of default on the Company's loan portfolio that results
from the borrowers' inability or unwillingness to make contractually required
payments. Market risk reflects changes in the value of collateral underlying
contracts receivable.

The determination of the allowance for loan losses is particularly susceptible
to significant changes in the economic, environment and market conditions.
Management believes that, as of December 31, 2001, the allowance for loan


                                       34



losses and non-refundable reserves are adequate based on information currently
available. A worsening or protracted economic decline would increase the
likelihood of losses due to credit and market risks and could create the need
for substantial increases to the allowance for loan losses.

The Company's business is subject to regulation and licensing under various
federal, state and local statutes and regulations. Most states where the Company
operates limit the interest rate, fees and other charges that may be imposed by,
or prescribe certain other terms of the contracts that the Company purchases and
define the Company's rights to repossess and sell collateral. An adverse change
in those laws or regulations could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's profitability by, among other things, limiting the states in which the
Company may operate or the interest rate that may be charged on installment
contracts or restricting the Company's ability to realize the value of any
collateral securing contracts. The Company is not aware of any materially
adverse legislation currently pending in any jurisdiction where it currently
transacts business. In June 2001, The Finance Company completed a $75 million
warehouse facility for the interim financing of motor vehicle retail installment
contracts. The facility has an expiration date of January 1, 2004 with an option
to extend one year. The transaction was completed with Westside Funding
Corporation, a special purpose funding vehicle administered by Westdeutsche
Landesbank Girozentrale, New York Branch (WestLB). WestLB will assist TFC as
placement agent for structuring Securitization Transactions from the related
collateral in the warehouse facility.

In December 2000, GECC announced that it would no longer participate in the
business of financing automobiles or automobile finance companies and renewed
the amended revolving line of credit through March 2001. In March 2001, The
Finance Company signed a new agreement with this lender that terminates January
1, 2002. The credit line available under the new agreement declined from $130
million to $100 million at the closing of the securitization on April 2, 2001,
declined to $75 million on August 1, 2001, and terminated January 1, 2002. On
December 3, 2001 the credit line was reduced to $50 million and extended through
April 1, 2002. In March 2002, the Company signed a new agreement with this
lender that terminates January 2, 2003. The credit line available under the new
agreement declines from $50 million to $40 million on July 1, 2002.
Additionally, on March 19, 2002, The Finance Company completed a debt financing
consisting of $64.6 million of Automobile Receivables-Backed Notes, Series
2002-1. The notes were sold in a private placement to qualified institutional
buyers. The notes were issued through TFC's wholly-owned, bankruptcy remote,
receivables subsidiary, TFC Receivables Corporation V ("TRCV"), and are rated
"AA" by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services and Fitch Ratings Services. The notes
are collateralized by the assets of TRCV. Principal and interest payments under
the notes are guaranteed pursuant to a financial guaranty insurance policy
issued by Radian Asset Assurance Inc. Principal and interest payments on the
notes are made monthly based on cash collections relating to the collateral pool
of contract receivables. At the time of issuance, the notes had an expected
average life of 1.3 years and a final maturity of August 2007. Subject to
certain conditions, the notes may be redeemed in whole, but not in part, when
the outstanding principal balance of the notes is equal to or less than $12.0
million.

Revolving lines of credit

Pursuant to the amended revolving line of credit agreement dated January 1,
1999, the Company's primary lender agreed to provide a credit line of $130
million through January 1, 2001. The agreement was extended through January 1,
2002. The credit line available under the extension: (i) declined to $100
million as of April 2, 2001; (ii) declined to $75 million on August 1, 2001; and
(iii) terminates January 1, 2002. In December 2001, the facility was further
extended through April 1, 2002 with an available credit line of $50 million. In
March 2002, the Company signed a new agreement with this lender that terminates
January 2, 2003. The credit line available under the new agreement declines from
$50 million to $40 million on July 1, 2002. The revolving line of credit is
secured by all assets of TFC and is guaranteed by TFCE. On a daily basis, the
Company remits all cash receipts relating to those receivables to the lender.
These daily cash receipts are first applied to accrued interest on the revolving
line of credit and the remainder to principal. Borrowings under the revolving
line of credit, totaled $29.0 million and $81.2 million at December 31, 2001 and
2000, respectively. The advance rate used to determine availability on this line
is limited to a percentage of eligible collateral as specified in this amended
agreement. Unused availability under this facility totaled $0.8 million and $3.8
million at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, based on collateral in
existence at that time. The 1997 amended agreement along with the December 1996
amended agreement granted the


                                       38



lender warrants to purchase a cumulative total of approximately 1.1 million
shares of the Company's common stock at $1 per share over a 5-year period. The
expiration of the warrants was subsequently amended to 120 days after the
termination of the agreement. The issuance of these warrants was recorded as
additional paid-in capital and as a discount to the line of credit. The amount,
$0.5 million in 1997 and $0.4 million in 1996 was amortized into interest
expense over the term of the 1997 amended agreement.

      Interest on the revolving line of credit accrues at a floating rate
      equivalent to one-month LIBOR plus a borrowing spread and line fees of
      $0.3 million for 2001 and 2000.

      The borrowing spread on the Company's primary revolving line of credit was
      as follows for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999:

                                                                Borrowing Spread
January 1, 1999 to July 31, 2001                                      3.50
August 1, 2001 to December 31, 2001                                   4.00

      The average outstanding balance on the revolving line of credit totaled
      $65.2 million, $90.2 million, and $118.1 million, respectively, in 2001,
      2000, and 1999. The average interest rate paid on the revolving line of
      credit was 7.98% in 2001, 9.89% in 2000 and 8.68% in 1999. At December 31,
      2001, 2000, and 1999 respectively, one-month LIBOR was 2.13%, 6.63% and
      5.56% and the total interest rate was 6.13%, 10.13% and 9.06%.

Another line of credit with another lender is secured by certain contract
      receivables of FCF and is guaranteed by TFCE. The $25 million facility was
      established in August 1999, replacing FCF's facility dated March 1997.
      Borrowings outstanding under FCF's credit facility totaled $21.0 million
      and $20.0 million at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The advance
      rate used to determine availability on the line is limited to 85% of
      eligible collateral as specified in the agreement. Interest on the
      revolving line of credit accrues at a floating rate equivalent to
      one-month LIBOR on the first day of the month plus 2.75%. There was no
      unused availability under this facility in 2001 or 2000. The average
      outstanding balance on the FCF revolving line of credit totaled $20.7
      million, $17.8 million and $13.8 million, in 2001, 2000 and 1999,
      respectively with an average interest rate of 6.85%, 9.14% and 8.65%, in
      2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. At December 31, 2001, 2000, 1999
      respectively the total interest rate was 4.87%, 9.54% and 9.23%.

A third line of credit with a third lender is secured by certain
      receivables of PCA and is guaranteed by TFCE. This $6 million facility was
      established in December 1999 and renews annually in February. Borrowings
      outstanding under this facility totaled $0.9 million and $2.6 million at
      December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Interest on the revolving line
      of credit accrues at a floating rate equivalent to prime on the first day
      of the month plus 3.25%. There was no unused availability under this
      facility in 2001 or 2000. The average outstanding balance on the PCA
      revolving line of credit totaled $1.7 million and $1.2 million with an
      average interest rate of 10.31% and 12.75% at December 31, 2001 and 2000,
      respectively. At December 31, 2001 and 2000 the total interest rate was
      8.25% and 12.75%.

Warehouse facility

In June 2001, The Finance Company completed a $75 million warehouse facility for
the interim financing of motor vehicle retail installment contracts. The
facility has an expiration date of January 1, 2004 with an option to extend one
year. The transaction was completed with Westside Funding Corporation, a special
purpose funding vehicle administered by Westdeutsche Landesbank Girozentrale,
New York Branch (WestLB). WestLB will assist TFC as placement agent for
structuring Securitization Transactions from the related collateral in the
warehouse facility.


                                       39



Borrowings under the revolving line of credit, totaled $67.3 million at December
31, 2001. The advance rate used to determine availability on this line is
limited to a percentage of eligible collateral as specified in the agreement.
There was no unused availability under this facility at December 31, 2001.

Interest on the revolving line of credit accrues at a floating rate equivalent
to one-month LIBOR plus borrowing spread of 2.50%. The agreement utilizes
monthly interest-rate swaps to convert its variable-rate debt to a fixed-rate
debt. At December 31, 2001 the warehouse facility approximated fair value.

The average outstanding balance on the revolving line of credit totaled
      $30.1 million for 2001. The average interest rate paid on the revolving
      line of credit was 5.53% for 2001. At December 31, 2001, one-month LIBOR

      notes were redeemed in September 2001.

The terms of the various agreements supporting the issuance of the Automobile
Receivables-Backed Notes require TRC, TRC III and TRC IV to operate within
certain delinquency and credit loss parameters with respect to the collateral
pool and requires TFC to maintain a minimum net worth. As of December 31, 2000,
TRC, TRC III and


                                       40



TRC IV were in compliance with the provisions of the agreements. TFC is
responsible for the administration and collection of TRC's, TRC III's, and TRC
IV's receivables.

      is a major provider of credit insurance products to the industry. The
      debenture matured in January 2001, with interest adjusted quarterly and
      payable quarterly at 1% over prime. The weighted-average interest rate was
      10.21% for 2000 and 8.875% for 1999.

Subordinated Note, due 2004

      The Company issued $1.3 million in December 2000 and $1.0 million in
      January 2001 unsecured subordinated debt to an affiliate of an U.S. based
      insurance company that is a major provider of credit insurance products to
      the industry. The debt matures in January 2004 with interest adjusted
      quarterly and payable quarterly at 1% over prime. The weighted-average
      interest rate was 8.50% for 2001 and 10.50% for 2000.

The revolving lines of credit agreements and the Senior Subordinated Note
agreements provide for certain covenants and restrictions regarding, among other
things, minimum net worth and interest coverage, maximum debt to equity ratio,
maximum delinquency and charge-off and minimum reserve requirements.

Dividend restrictions

The Company did not declare dividends on its common stock during the years ended
December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999, nor does it anticipate paying cash dividends
in the foreseeable future. If and when the Company decides to declare cash
dividends, the amount would be limited by certain provisions of the Company's
various credit agreements. Additionally, the various credit agreements provide
restrictions on TFC's and its subsidiaries ability to transfer funds to TFCE in
the form of dividends.

The differences between income taxes computed at the statutory Federal rate and
actual amounts were as follows for the years ended December 31:

In 1993, contingent interest on the Company's convertible notes was considered
deductible for Federal income tax purposes but was treated as non-deductible for
income tax expense on the Company's financial statements. The Company is
continuing to challenge the IRS regarding the deductibility of the contingent
interest. To the extent that the contingent interest on convertible notes is
ultimately determined to be deductible for Federal income tax purposes, the
benefit, which totals $1.7 million, will be recognized in the period that the
determination is made.

7. Employee benefit plan

The Company has a defined contribution savings plan covering all permanent
employees working 20 or more hours per week and with more than one year of
service. Under the terms of the plan, the Company matches 50% of employees'
contributions up to 10% of each employee's earnings as defined. In addition,
employees have the option of contributing additional amounts. The Company's plan
expense for 2001, 2000, and 1999 was $0.2 million.

8. Stock Plans

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Stock Purchase Plan"),
which allows for options to purchase common stock to be granted to employees,
including eligible officers, of the Company. A total of 530,000 shares of common
stock have been reserved for issuance under the Stock Purchase Plan.

The Company periodically grants options to certain eligible employees under this
plan. These stock options are fully vested at the date of grant. Approximately,
15,000 options and 13,000 options were exercised in 2001 and 2000, respectively.
As of December 31, 2001, there are no outstanding unexercised options.

Any employee who is customarily employed for at least 20 hours per week and more
than five months per calendar year by the Company and has more than 6 months of
service is eligible to participate in the Stock Purchase Plan. No employee is
permitted to purchase shares under the Stock Purchase Plan if such employee owns
5% or more of the total outstanding shares of the Company. In addition, no
employee is entitled to purchase more than $25,000 of common stock (based upon
the fair market value of the shares of common stock at the time the option is
granted) in any calendar year. The price at which shares of common stock are
sold under the Stock Purchase Plan is the lower of 85% of the fair market value
on the date of grant or the purchase date of such shares.


                                       43



Long-term Incentive Plan

The Company has established the 1995 Long-Term Incentive Plan ("Incentive
Plan"), which provides incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and
restricted stock for certain executives of the Company. The options generally
vest over a period of five years. A total of 1.5 million shares of common stock
have been reserved for issuance under the Incentive Plan. On June 1, 1998,
104,679 options granted in 1995 were canceled and reissued at an exercise price
equal to the then fair market value of the Company's common stock of $2.94 with
vesting beginning January 1, 1999 over five years. The remaining options granted
in 1995 at an exercise price of $11.50 expired on December 31, 1999. On June 1,
1998, 483,750 options were granted to certain employees at an exercise price
equal to the then fair market value of the Company's common stock of $2.94, with
vesting beginning January 1, 1999 over five years. Approximately, 70,000 and
3,200 options were excised in 2001 and 2000, respectively. All outstanding
options generally expire five years from the vesting date.

Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by
FAS No. 123, which also requires that the information be determined as if the
Company has accounted for its employee stock options granted subsequent to
December 31, 1994, under the fair value method of FAS No. 123 The fair value for
these options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option
pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: risk free
interest rate of 2.3% to 6% for 2001 and 2000; price volatility of 70% and a
weighted-average expected life of the options of 5.0 years.


                                       44



8. Stock Plans (continued)

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the
fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully
transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly
subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because
the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly
different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective
input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's
opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single
measure of the fair value of the Company's stock options.

For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options
is amortized to expense over the options' vesting periods. The Company's pro
forma net income (in thousands) and pro forma income per share based on options
issued during 2001, 2000 and 1999 were as follows:

The Company is party to several legal actions which are ordinary, routine
litigation incidental to its business. The Company believes that none of those
actions, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse
effect on the results of operations or financial position of the Company.

11. Financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk and concentrations of
credit risks

In its normal course of business, the Company engages in consumer lending
activities with a significant number of consumers (obligors) throughout the
United States. The maximum risk of accounting loss from these on- balance-sheet
financial instruments with these counterparties, assuming all collateral is
deemed worthless, is represented by their respective balance sheet amounts

At December 31, 2001 approximately 62% of the Company's contract receivables
portfolio is related to obligors who bought vehicles from dealers in California
(18%), Virginia (18%), Texas (17%) and Georgia (9%). Although the Company's
contract receivables portfolio includes consumers living throughout the United
States, a substantial portion of the obligors' ability to honor their
obligations to the Company may be dependent on economic conditions in these
states.

12. Estimated fair value of financial instruments

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments," (FAS No. 107) requires the disclosure of the
estimated fair value of on- and off-balance-sheet financial instruments.

Fair value estimates are made at a point in time based on judgments regarding
current economic conditions, interest rate risk characteristics, loss experience
and other relevant market data and information about the financial instrument.
Many of these estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant
judgment and cannot be determined with precision. Therefore, the estimated fair
value may not be realizable in a current sale of the instrument. Changes in
assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Fair value estimates exclude all non-financial assets and liabilities including
property and equipment, goodwill and other intangibles, prepaid assets, accrued
liabilities, taxes payable and refundable dealer reserves. Accordingly, the
estimated fair value amounts of financial instruments do not represent the
entire value of the Company.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the
fair value of its financial instruments at December 31, 2001 and 2000:

Short-term financial instruments The carrying amounts reported on the Company's
balance sheet generally approximate fair value for financial instruments that
mature in 90 days or less, with no significant change in credit risk. The
carrying amounts approximate fair value for cash and cash equivalents,
restricted cash and certain other assets and liabilities. Financial instruments
included in other assets and liabilities primarily include trade accounts
receivable and payable.

Contract receivables The estimated fair value of contract receivables was
calculated using market rates of return required for a bulk purchase of contract
receivables with similar credit and interest rate characteristics. The estimated
fair value of contract receivables that did not meet the criteria for a bulk
purchase, generally contracts that were more than 30 days past due, was
calculated based upon the liquidation value of the collateral.

Revolving lines of credit, automobile-receivables notes, subordinated notes and
other term debt The estimated fair values for the revolving lines of credit,
automobile receivables backed notes, subordinated notes, and other term debt
were based on indicative market prices for debt with similar terms and remaining
maturities currently available to companies with similar credit ratings.

The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments at December 31,
2001 and 2000 were as follows (in thousands):



                                                    2001                          2000

13. Segments

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which
separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the
chief operating decision makers in deciding how to allocate resources and in
assessing performance.

The Company is a specialty finance company with two business segments. Through
TFC, the auto finance segment, the Company is engaged in purchasing and
servicing installment sales contracts originated by automobile and motorcycle
dealers involved in the sale of used automobiles, vans, light trucks, and new
and used motorcycles (collectively "vehicles") throughout the United States.
This segment consists of two business units (i) point-of-sale which contracts
are acquired on an individual basis from dealers after the Company has reviewed
and approved the purchasers credit application and (ii) bulk which contracts
were acquired through the purchase of dealer portfolios. Through FCF, the
consumer finance segment, the Company is involved in the direct origination and
servicing of small consumer loans through a branch network in Virginia and North
Carolina. The other column consists of smaller subsidiaries and corporate
support functions not allocated to either of the business segments. All revenue
is generated from external customers in the United States.

Management measures segment performance based on revenue earned (yields
achieved) on the outstanding portfolio of contract receivables as well as income
before taxes.

The accounting policies are the same as those described in the summary of
significant accounting policies.

14. Bankruptcy remote subsidiaries

TFC Receivables Corporation 2, III and IV are wholly-owned bankruptcy remote
subsidiaries of TFC that were formed to facilitate certain asset-backed
financing transactions requiring bankruptcy remote structure. Bankruptcy remote
refers to a legal structure in which it is expected that the applicable entity
would not be included in any bankruptcy filing by its parent or affiliates.
These subsidiaries have issued $206.4 million of automobile receivables-backed
notes of which $55.1 is outstanding at December 31, 2001. Proceeds from the
issuances were used to purchase certain assets from the Company, which
collateralize the notes. At December 31, 2001, these subsidiaries had total
assets of $83.8 million, of which $67.3 million represented net contract
receivables, $15.2 million represented restricted cash and $1.3 million
represented other assets which primarily included deferred charges. All


                                    Page 49



of the assets of these subsidiaries have been pledged as collateral on the
automobile receivables-backed notes. None of the assets of these subsidiaries
are available to pay other creditors of the Company or its affiliates. The
automobile receivables-backed notes are further discussed in Note 5 of the Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements.

In June 2001, the Company completed a $75 million warehouse facility for the
interim financing of motor vehicle retail installment contracts. The facility
has an expiration date of January 1, 2004 with an option to extend one year. The
transaction was completed with

Westside Funding Corporation, a special purpose funding vehicle administered by
Westdeutsche Landesbank Girozentrale, New York Branch (WestLB). WestLB will
assist TFC as placement agent for structuring Securitization Transactions from
the related collateral in the warehouse facility. TFC Warehouse Corporation I is
the wholly-owned bankruptcy remote subsidiary of the Company that was formed to
facilitate the asset-backed financing transactions requiring bankruptcy remote
structure. The transaction is further discussed in Note 5 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.

16.  Recent Pronouncements

In July, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued two statements -
Statement 141, Business Combinations, and Statement 142, Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets, which will potentially impact the Company's accounting for
its reported goodwill and other intangible assets.

Statement 141:

      Eliminates the pooling method for accounting for business combinations.

      Requires that intangible assets that meet certain criteria be reported
      separately from goodwill.

      Requires negative goodwill arising from a business combination to be
      recorded as an extraordinary gain.

Statement 142:

      Eliminates the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles that are
      determined to have an indefinite life.

      Requires, at a minimum, annual impairment tests for goodwill and other
      intangible assets that are determined to have an indefinite life.

Upon adoption of these Statements, the Company is required to:

      Re-evaluate goodwill and other intangible assets that arose from business
      combinations entered into before July 1, 2001. If the recorded other
      intangibles assets do not meet the criteria for recognition, they should
      be reclassified to goodwill. Similarly, if there are other intangible
      assets that meet the criteria for recognition but were not separately
      recorded from goodwill, they should be reclassified from goodwill.

      Reassess the useful lives of intangible assets and adjust the remaining
      amortization periods accordingly.

      Write-off any remaining negative goodwill.

Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 144 "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" became effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2001. Statement No. 144 requires that one
accounting model be used for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale,
whether previously held and used or newly acquired.

The Company has not yet completed its full assessment of the effects of these
new pronouncements on its financial statements and so is uncertain as to the
impact. The standards generally are required to be implemented by the Company in
its 2002 financial statements.

Raley Employment Agreement

         Basic Terms of Employment Agreement

         TFC and Robert S. Raley, Jr. entered into an employment agreement (the
"Raley Employment Agreement"), commencing January 1, 1993 and, as amended,
expiring December 31, 2002, unless terminated earlier

- --------

(1)  The value realized equals the difference between the fair market value of
     the securities underlying the options and the exercise price of the options
     at exercise.

(2)  The value of in-the-money options at fiscal year end was calculated by
     determining the difference between the average of the high and low sales
     prices of $1.38 per share of the Company's Common Stock on the Nasdaq Stock
     Market on December 31 the last trading day of the year, and the exercise
     price of the options.

                                       54



in accordance with its provisions. Under the terms of the Raley Employment
Agreement, TFC agreed to pay Mr. Raley (i) a base salary of $50,000 per annum
and (ii) a bonus, after deduction of Mr. Raley's base salary payments, equal to
3% of the consolidated annual net pre-tax income of TFC. The computation of the
consolidated annual net pre-tax income of TFC is made without deducting federal
or state income taxes or bonuses paid by TFC to Mr. Raley or to any other
employee. In addition, Mr. Raley is reimbursed for all reasonable business
expenses and is furnished with two automobiles for his use, the reasonable
expenses for the operation of which are paid by TFC. Further, TFC has agreed to
provide Mr. Raley with all other employee benefits that he enjoyed on the date
of such agreement or those benefits that TFC may approve for employees generally
or for its senior executives.

         Notwithstanding the terms of the Raley Employment Agreement, which
remains in effect in its original form, the Board passed a resolution modifying
the salary and bonus components of his compensation. Under the terms of this
resolution Mr. Raley is to receive a base salary of $300,000 per year and a
guaranteed bonus of $300,000 to be credited against the bonus payable to Mr.
Raley in each year pursuant to the Raley Employment Agreement. In the event the
terms of the Raley Employment Agreement result in a bonus in excess of $300,000,
Mr. Raley will be paid such excess. However, should the bonus calculation under
the Raley Employment Agreement result in a bonus of less than $300,000, then Mr.
Raley will not be required to repay any of the $300,000 guaranteed bonus. The
salary arrangement is not guaranteed under the Raley Employment Agreement.

         In addition to termination upon the occurrence of Mr. Raley's
disability or death, TFC may terminate the Raley Employment Agreement prior to
the expiration of its term in the event that: (i) Mr. Raley ceases to serve as
the Chairman of TFC's Board of Directors; (ii) all or substantially all of TFC's
assets are sold to a third party; (iii) more than 50% of the then issued and
outstanding stock of TFC or the Company is sold to, or exchanged for equity
interests in, any person or entity, which sale or exchange would not constitute
a "continuity of interest;" (iv) TFC is involved in a business combination in
which it is not the surviving corporation; or (v) TFC is dissolved voluntarily
or by operation of law. Further, the Raley Employment Agreement provides that
TFC reserves the right to terminate such agreement, without notice for "cause,"
as defined therein. The Raley Employment Agreement also includes a covenant not
to compete, which continues for as long as Mr. Raley receives payments
thereunder.

         Bonus Repayment Obligation

         Although the Company cannot make a final determination regarding the
amount, if any, of the 3% bonus of net pre-tax income of TFC until the end of
each year, in 1995 and prior years, TFC made estimated bonus payments to Mr.
Raley and other executives throughout the year on a monthly basis. In 1995,
these estimated bonus payments to Mr. Raley totaled $354,982. However, because
TFC did not have any net pre-tax income in 1995, Mr. Raley was obligated to
return to TFC all estimated bonus payments made in 1995. In addition, although
Mr. Raley also received $50,000 in base salary during 1995, Mr. Raley elected to
repay that amount as well. To fulfill this obligation, Mr. Raley delivered a
Promissory Note to TFC dated as of January 1, 1996, in the principal amount of
$404,982 ("Raley Note") and an Excess Compensation Repayment Agreement also
dated as of January 1, 1996 ("Raley Repayment Agreement"). Effective July 1999
the Board voted to revise the terms of the Raley Note whereas the balance of the
note was reduced monthly on a pro rata basis from July 1999 through December
2000 for each month Raley continues in his role as CEO.

         Employment Agreements

         The Named Executive Officers entered into a Change of Control agreement
with TFC in July 2001. The agreement terminates on the earlier of (i) the
cessation of the employees employment with the Company for any reason, or (ii)
the Company's notice of termination of employment, irrespective of the effective
date of the termination.

Directors' Compensation

         Each director of the Company who is not also an executive officer of
the Company receives (i) a $5,000 annual retainer, (ii) a $1,000 fee for
personal attendance at each Board Meeting, (iii) a $500 fee for attendance on a
telephonic Board Meeting and (iv) a $500 fee is paid to each director who
personally attends Committee Meetings held on days on which there is no Board
meeting. Each Audit Committee member receives (i) an additional $2,000 annual
retainer with the Chairman receiving a $4,000 annual retainer, and (ii) a $500
fee for each Committee Meeting regardless of when held. Directors who are also
employees of the Company receive no additional

                                       55



compensation for serving as directors. The Company reimburses all of its
directors for travel and out of pocket expenses in connection with their
attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors.

         In 2000, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the Non-Employee
Director Stock Option Plan ("Director Plan"), reserving up to 200,000 shares of
the Company's Common Stock for issuance under the Director Plan, which was
approved by the shareholders at the 2000 Annual Meeting. Pursuant to the
Director Plan, non-employee directors of the Company are eligible to receive
non-qualified stock options pursuant to a formula that grants existing
non-employee directors and any new non-employee directors an initial grant to
purchase 10,000 shares and existing directors 3,000 additional shares on an
annual basis on the date of each annual meeting of shareholders at which
directors are elected, provided that such director is elected at such annual
meeting, commencing with the 2001 annual meeting. All options granted are
immediately exercisable. The exercise price of all options granted under the
Director's Plan is the fair market value of the Common Stock at the time of the
grant. All options granted under the Director's Plan expire on the first to
occur of: (i) the date the option holder resigns from the Board; (ii) 90 days
after an option holder fails to be elected at a meeting of shareholders called
for the purpose of electing Board members; (iii) one year following the date the
option holder ceases to be a member of the Board because of death or disability;
and (iv) five years from the date of grant. An option holder may not sell or
dispose of any shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an
option under the plan until at least six months have elapsed from the date of
grant. As of December 31, 2001, options to purchase up to 75,000 shares of
Common Stock were outstanding under the Director Plan.

         Limitation on Deductibility of Certain Compensation for Federal Income
         Tax Purposes

         Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code ("162(m)") precludes the
Company from taking a deduction for compensation in excess of $1,000,000 for the
Chief Executive Officer or any of its four other highest paid officers. Certain
performance-based compensation, however, is specifically exempt from the
deduction limit. In adopting the Incentive Plan, the Compensation Committee duly
considered Section 162(m) and structured the Incentive Plan accordingly. The
Compensation Committee believes that the Incentive Plan and the Employee Stock
Purchase Plan will both qualify as performance-based compensation under the
regulations issued under Section 162(m).

         On December 20, 1996, TFC, a subsidiary of the Company, entered into an
Amended and Restated Motor Vehicle Installment Contract Loan Security Agreement
(the "GECC Loan Agreement") with General Electric Capital Corporation ("GECC"),
under which GECC agreed to amend and restate the agreement governing the
previous credit arrangement between GECC and TFC. The GECC Loan Agreement
provided for maximum borrowings by TFC from GECC of $150,000,000. As
consideration for GECC extending credit under the GECC Loan Agreement, the
Company and certain affiliates guaranteed TFC's performance and payment under
the GECC Loan Agreement in separate guarantees made by each and dated December
20, 1996. As further consideration for GECC entering into the GECC Loan
Agreement, the Company issued to GECC a Warrant to Purchase Common Stock, dated
December 20, 1996 (the "First Warrant"), whereby GECC was granted rights to
purchase 567,640 shares of the Common Stock (or 4.79%) of the Company. In
connection with the First Warrant, the Company entered into a Registration
Rights Agreement with GECC dated December 20, 1996 (the "Registration Rights
Agreement"), in order to provide GECC with certain registration rights with
respect to the shares of Common Stock purchasable under the First Warrant.

                                       58



         In early 1997, the Company breached certain restrictive covenants under
the GECC Loan Agreement, and negotiated a loan restructuring with GECC which,
among other things, caused GECC to advance additional monies to TFC to pay
certain amounts to another creditor of TFC (the "Loan Restructure"). The Loan
Restructure was evidenced by an Amendment No. 1 to the GECC Loan Agreement dated
April 4, 1997. As a condition to the Loan Restructure, GECC required that the
Company grant GECC another warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock at an
exercise price of $1.00 per share (the "Second Warrant") under terms
substantially similar to those in the First Warrant which, upon exercise
together with the First Warrant, would give GECC beneficial ownership of the
Company totaling 9.1% at that time. GECC also required that the First Warrant be
amended to reduce the exercise price from $2.00 per share to $1.00 per share and
to extend the expiration date thereof from December 31, 2000 to March 31, 2002
(the same expiration date under the Second Warrant). Furthermore, the Company
amended and restated the Registration Rights Agreement to provide for
registration rights with respect to the Common Stock issuable under both the
First Warrant and the Second Warrant. As a part of the Restructure, the maximum
amount which could be borrowed by TFC under the Loan Agreement was reduced to
$110 million. Although both warrants are immediately exercisable, as of the date
of this Statement, neither the First Warrant nor the Second Warrant had been
exercised by GECC.

         In December 2000, GECC announced that it would no longer participate in
the business of financing automobiles or automobile finance companies and
renewed the amended revolving line of credit through March 2001. In March 2001,
The Finance Company signed an amendment with this lender that terminated January
1, 2002. The credit line available under the amendment declined from $130
million to $100 million at the closing of the securitization on April 2, 2001,
declined to $75 million on August 1, 2001, and terminated January 1, 2002. On
December 3, 2001 the credit line was reduced to $50 million and extended through
April 1, 2002. In March 2002, the Company signed a new amendment with this
lender that terminates January 2, 2003. The credit line available under the
amendment declines from $50 million to $40 million on July 1, 2002. The
expiration of the warrants was subsequently amended to 120 days after the
termination of the agreement.
