                   CASE CREDIT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
 
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
(1)--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
  The accompanying financial statements reflect the consolidated results of
Case Credit Corporation and its subsidiaries ("Case Credit" or the "Company").
All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
 
  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial
statements of Case Credit contain all adjustments which are of a normal
recurring nature necessary to present fairly the financial position as of
September 30, 1998, and the results of operations, changes in shareholder's
equity and cash flows for the periods indicated. It is suggested that these
interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's 1997 Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997. Interim financial results
are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire year.
 
(2)--ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
  Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." This
statement establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive
income and its components. Components of comprehensive income include net
income and all other non-owner changes in equity. SFAS No. 130 requires that
an enterprise classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in
a financial statement for the period in which they are recognized. For interim
reporting, the Company has chosen to disclose comprehensive income in the
Notes to Financial Statements. See Note 6, "Comprehensive Income."
 
  In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for
hedging activities. This statement must be adopted no later than January 1,
2000, although earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 133.
 
  Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Position ("SOP")
No. 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained
for Internal Use." The Company's accounting for costs of computer software
developed or obtained for internal use is consistent with the guidelines
established in the SOP and, as a result, the adoption of this statement had no
effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
 
  The Company will adopt SOP No. 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up
Activities," effective January 1, 1999. Adoption of this statement will have
no material effect on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.
 
(3)--ASSET-BACKED SECURITIZATIONS
 
  During the first nine months of 1998, limited-purpose business trusts
organized by Case Credit issued $1,379 million of asset-backed securities to
outside investors. As of September 30, 1998, Case Credit has sold $1,403
million of U.S. and Canadian retail notes to the trusts in connection with
these issuances. During the first nine months of 1997, limited-purpose
business trusts organized by Case Credit issued $1,706 million of asset-backed
securities to outside investors. As of September 30, 1997, Case Credit had
sold $1,301 million of U.S. and Canadian retail notes to the trusts in
connection with these issuances. The proceeds from the sale of the retail
notes were used to repay outstanding debt and to finance additional
receivables.

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
 
 
(4)--LONG-TERM DEBT
 
  During the second quarter of 1998, Case Credit increased its $550 million
debt security program to $1 billion pursuant to a shelf registration statement
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in May 1998. During the
first nine months of 1998, Case Credit issued $629 million of its medium-term
notes in the United States, with maturities of two to three years and interest
rates ranging from 5.8% to 6.0%, pursuant to this registration statement. The
net proceeds from the offerings will be used to fund Case Credit's growth
initiatives and for other corporate purposes, including repayment of short-
term indebtedness.
 
(5)--INCOME TAXES
 
  On a consolidated basis, the Company's 1998 year-to-date effective tax rate
of 35% was equal to the U.S. statutory rate. The Company's September 1997
year-to-date effective tax rate of 32% was lower than the U.S. statutory rate
primarily due to reductions in the tax valuation reserves in certain foreign
jurisdictions offset by state income taxes and foreign income taxed at
different rates.
 
(6)--COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
 
  Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income." The components of comprehensive income for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, are as follows (in
millions):

(7)--OTHER MATTERS
 
  During the second quarter of 1998, Case Corporation announced the creation
of Case Capital Corporation, a broad-based financing company for the global
marketplace. Case Capital Corporation will include separate businesses that
offer loans and leases for construction, agriculture and other industries,
commercial lending within equipment industries, multiple lines of insurance
products and private label credit cards.
 
(8)--SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
  In the fourth quarter, Case Credit issued $159 million of floating and fixed
rate medium-term notes pursuant to its $1 billion shelf registration statement
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in May 1998. These notes
have maturities that range between eighteen to twenty-four months and bear
interest based on three month LIBOR for the floating rate notes, and 6.24% for
the fixed rate notes. Also pursuant to the $1 billion shelf registration
statement, Case Credit issued $100 million principal amount of 6.125% notes
due October 15, 2001, and $100 million principal amount of floating rate notes
due January 21, 2000, with an initial rate of 5.91%.The net proceeds from
these issuances will be used to fund Case Credit's growth initiatives and for
other corporate purposes, including the repayment of short-term indebtedness.
 
  During the fourth quarter of 1998, Case Credit's Canadian subsidiary, Case
Credit Ltd, established a C$750 million medium-term note program pursuant to a
short form prospectus and prospectus supplement filed with the Canadian
Securities Administrators. As of the date of this filing, Case Credit has not
issued any medium-term notes under this program.

                   CASE CREDIT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
 
                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
 
 
  During the fourth quarter, a limited-purpose business trust organized by
Case Credit priced $628.9 million of asset-backed securities for issuance to
outside investors. In connection with these issuances, Case Credit will sell
$448.6 million of retail notes to the trust in November 1998. An additional
$201.4 million of retail notes will be sold to the trust as receivables are
generated. The net proceeds from the sale of the retail notes will be used to
repay short-term indebtedness and to finance additional receivables.

                   CASE CREDIT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
 
                MANAGEMENT'S ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
 Nine Months Ended September 30, 1998 vs. Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997
 
NET INCOME
 
  Net income for the first nine months of 1998 of $62 million was consistent
with the comparable period of 1997. Net income for 1998 reflects higher
earnings as a result of increased levels of on-balance-sheet receivables,
including higher lease income from operating leases and higher realized gains
from the sale of retail notes under asset-backed securitizations. These
amounts were offset by increased interest expense as a result of higher
average on-book receivables, as well as increased depreciation of equipment on
operating leases.
 
REVENUES
 
  Case Credit reported total revenues of $264 million for the first nine
months of 1998 as compared to $201 million for the first nine months of 1997.
Finance income earned on retail notes and finance leases increased to $98
million in the first nine months of 1998 as compared to $75 million for the
same period in 1997, primarily due to increased levels of on-balance-sheet
receivables. In addition, operating lease income increased $23 million to a
total of $46 million for the first nine months of 1998, reflecting the growth
in Case Credit's operating lease portfolio.
 
EXPENSES
 
  Interest expense for the first nine months of 1998 was $103 million, up $31
million from the $72 million reported in the first nine months of 1997. The
increase in interest expense resulted from higher average debt levels during
the first nine months of 1998 as compared to the prior year period, primarily
due to the growth in Case Credit's on-balance-sheet receivables and increased
equipment on operating leases.
 
  Operating expenses increased $27 million to a total of $65 million in the
first nine months of 1998 as compared to the first nine months of 1997. This
increase primarily resulted from higher year-over-year depreciation expense
relating to Case Credit's larger operating lease portfolio, as well as higher
operating expenses in support of Case Credit's growth initiatives.
 
SERVICED PORTFOLIO
 
  During the first nine months of 1998, Case Credit's serviced portfolio of
receivables increased 30% over the same time last year to a record $6.4
billion. Growth in the first nine months of 1998 resulted from Case Credit's
focus on new markets and new products, including retail financing through Case
Credit's European joint venture, Case Credit Europe S.A.S. Gross receivables
originated in the first nine months of 1998 increased 41% for a total of $3.2
billion versus the same period in 1997. During the first nine months of 1998,
limited-purpose business trusts organized by Case Credit issued $1,379 million
of asset-backed securities to outside investors. Case Credit has sold $1,403
million of U.S. and Canadian retail notes to the trusts in connection with
these issuances. During the first nine months of 1997, limited-purpose
business trusts organized by Case Credit issued $1,706 million of asset-backed
securities to outside investors. Case Credit had sold $1,301 million of U.S.
and Canadian retail notes to the trusts in connection with these issuances.
The proceeds from the sale of the retail notes were used to repay outstanding
debt and to finance additional receivables.
 
YEAR 2000
 
  As used in this "Year 2000" disclosure, "the Company" or "Case" refers to
Case Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Case Credit
Corporation and its subsidiaries ("Case Credit"). In addition, all references
to "Case Industrial" reflect the consolidation of all majority owned
subsidiaries, excluding Case Credit.
 
                                      10

 
  In July 1996, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") of the Financial
Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued EITF 96-14, "Accounting for the
Costs Associated with Modifying Computer Software for the Year 2000," which
requires that costs associated with modifying computer software for the Year
2000 be expensed as incurred. Through Case's ongoing process of evaluating and
performing systems and software upgrades and enhancements, the Company has
been actively addressing Year 2000 issues since 1995.
 
  Case Corporation understands that it is important to our customers and
stakeholders that Case's products, services and internal systems are not
adversely affected by the Year 2000. Case has implemented procedures that it
deems necessary to safeguard the Company from computer-related issues
associated with adverse effects as a result of improperly recognizing the
millennial date change. These procedures include inventorying/assessing,
planning, constructing/testing, and implementing/certifying, where necessary,
critical internal-use systems. The Company believes, based upon its review and
efforts to date, that future external and internal costs to be incurred for
the modification of internal-use software to address Year 2000 issues will not
have a material adverse effect on Case's financial position, cash flows or
results of operations. The Company believes, based upon its review and efforts
to date, that external and internal remediation costs to be incurred for the
modification of internal-use software to address Year 2000 issues will, in the
aggregate, approximate $40 million to $50 million through the end of 1999. As
Case Industrial and Case Credit share certain technology resources and
internal-use systems, all such remediation costs will be borne by Case
Industrial. Through September 30, 1998, Case Industrial has incurred
approximately $19 million of the estimated external and internal remediation
costs to address Year 2000 issues.
 
  Case has also undertaken a program to alert its suppliers and dealers of
Year 2000 issues. Based on its contacts with suppliers and dealers, the
Company believes that its most important suppliers will be Year 2000 compliant
by December 31, 1998. Case will continue to work with its remaining suppliers
and its dealers throughout 1999 to secure Year 2000 compliance by December 31,
1999. As a result, and subject to the Company's ongoing compliance efforts,
the costs and uncertainties relating to timely resolution of Year 2000 issues
applicable to the Company's business and operations are not reasonably
expected by the Company to have a material adverse effect on Case's financial
position, cash flows or results of operations.
 
  Based upon Case's review and efforts to date, the Company currently
anticipates completion of critical Year 2000 compliance issues by mid-1999.
The Company plans to continue integration testing throughout the balance of
1999. In the event Case's Year 2000 compliance efforts, as well as the efforts
of the Company's suppliers and dealers, individually and in the aggregate, are
not successful, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial position, cash flows and results of operations. As a result, the
Company is in the process of developing Year 2000 contingency plans that will
be designed to mitigate the impact on the Company in the event that its Year
2000 compliance efforts are not successful. The targeted completion date for
the Company's contingency planning is mid-1999.
 
  The information included in this "Year 2000" section represents forward-
looking statements and involves risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking
statements.
 
INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT
 
  The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its interest
rate exposures. Case Credit does not hold or issue financial instruments for
trading purposes. For information regarding Case Credit's interest rate risk
management, reference is made to Item 7 and Note 7 to the Case Credit
Financial Statements in the Company's 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There
has been no material change in the Company's market risk exposures that affect
the quantitative and qualitative disclosures as presented as of December 31,
1997.
