EXHIBIT NUMBER DESCRIPTION
99.1 News Release dated May 3, 2004
ITEM 12. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.
The information in this Current Report is being furnished and shall not be
deemed "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section. The
information in this Current Report shall not be incorporated by reference into
any registration statement or other document pursuant to the Securities Act of
1933, as amended.
On May 3, 2004, the registrant issued a news release announcing its financial
results for the quarter ended March 31, 2004. A copy of the release is attached
as Exhibit 99.1.
Exhibit 99.1 to the report may contain a "non-GAAP financial measure" as defined
in Item 10 of Regulation S-K of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
The possible non-GAAP financial measure is "managed receivables." This possible
non-GAAP financial measure is discussed below, including the most directly
comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States ("GAAP"), a
reconciliation of managed receivables to the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measure, and the reasons why the Company believes the presentation of
managed receivables provides useful information to management and to investors.
Managed receivables should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative
for, the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
On page 1 of the earnings release included in Exhibit 99.1, the Company stated
that managed receivables were $736.3 million at March 31, 2004. The most
directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance
with GAAP to the managed receivables measure is finance receivables on the
consolidated balance sheet. The managed receivables measure also includes (i)
the finance receivables held by unconsolidated subsidiaries off balance sheet
pursuant to statement on financial accounting standards No. 140 and (ii)
repossessed vehicles included in other assets in the Company's balance sheet. In
addition, the managed receivables measure includes allowance for credit losses,
unearned origination fees, and certain other less significant adjustments.
The following table reconciles the Company's finance receivables, prepared on
the basis of GAAP, to managed receivables as of March 31, 2004:
2
March 31, 2004
(in millions)
-------------
Net finance receivables per balance sheet $ 312.3
Allowance for finance receivables credit losses 36.6
Unearned origination fees 12.7
Finance receivables held by unconsolidated subsidiaries 370.7
Repossessed vehicles included in other assets on balance sheet 3.2
Other 0.8
-------------
$ 736.3
=============
The managed receivables measure is useful to management and investors because it
provides a basis for estimating (i) the Company's servicing fee revenue and (ii)
the Company's servicing personnel requirements. The managed receivables measure
is primarily used by investors and analysts, for those purposes.
