EX-99.3 4 e18498ex99-3.txt PRESS RELEASE Exhibit 99.3 For Information: Valerie L. Gerard - Senior Vice President - Investor Relations (973) 422-3284 or Kelley Gipson - Executive Vice President - Corporate Marketing (973) 422-3235 CIT ANNOUNCES DILUTED EPS OF $0.82 FOR THE QUARTER, UP 26% FROM LAST YEAR o Return on tangible equity at 13.7%, up from 11.6% a year ago o Credit performance continues to improve o Net income improves in all segments o Focused capital discipline drives portfolio initiatives NEW YORK, July 22, 2004 - CIT Group Inc. (NYSE: CIT) today reported net income of $176.6 million for the second quarter, an increase from $136.9 million. Diluted earnings per share were $0.82 for the quarter, up 26% over last year. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 totaled $365.9 million (diluted EPS $1.70), up from $263.9 million (diluted EPS $1.24) last year. Return on tangible equity increased to 13.7% for the second quarter from 11.6% last year. "Our second quarter results reflect the power and potential of CIT's diverse business franchises," said Albert R. Gamper Jr., Chairman. "The underlying business dynamics were strong as we enjoyed higher volume in many businesses, good credit quality across the board and improving returns." "We continue to reposition our capital for higher returns. During the quarter, we sold our test equipment rental business, sold most of our direct venture capital investment portfolio and accelerated the liquidation of the marine and recreational vehicle portfolios," said Jeffrey M. Peek, President and CEO. "Additionally, we completed the purchase of the GATX technology portfolio and had significant improvement in volumes and profitability in Equipment Finance. We continue to build momentum and make significant progress toward our profitability target." 1 Financial Highlights: Portfolio and Managed Assets Total financing and leasing portfolio assets grew to $41.4 billion at June 30, 2004, up 10% from $37.5 billion last year and up slightly from $41.0 billion at March 31, 2004. The quarter included the $520 million GATX technology portfolio acquisition, offset by sales of a $100 million test equipment rental portfolio, $20 million of residual assets in Argentina and approximately $70 million of the direct venture capital portfolio. The quarter also included a higher level of loan syndications. Managed assets were $49.9 billion at June 30, 2004, versus $47.9 billion last year and $50.1 billion at March 31, 2004. The reduction in managed assets from last quarter reflects the above-mentioned sales as well as a lower level of factoring receivables due to seasonality and higher prepayments. Securitized receivables (receivables we have previously securitized with servicing retained) decreased to $8.4 billion from $10.4 billion last year and $9.1 billion last quarter, due to the continuation of home equity receivable funding on balance sheet and a lower level of vendor finance securitizations. Liquidating portfolios declined to $814 million (including approximately $110 million recreational vehicle and marine portfolios which are included in assets held for sale at June 30) from $874 million at March 31, 2004. Origination volume for the quarter and the six months, excluding factoring, increased 8% and 12% from the prior year. Volume was strong in the vendor programs, home equity and international business of Specialty Finance, and in the Equipment Finance segment. Net Finance and Risk Adjusted Margin Net finance margin was 3.99% of average earning assets ("AEA"), an improvement of 26 basis points from the prior year quarter. The stronger margin was principally fueled by lower borrowing costs, as interest expense declined to 3.16% of AEA from 3.78% during the prior year quarter and 3.23% last quarter. The current quarter also benefited from income on a higher level of prepayment activity. Compressed operating lease margins, primarily within the aerospace portfolio due to increased depreciation on older leased aircraft that are no longer manufactured, partially offset this improvement. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, net finance margin was 4.00%, an improvement of 37 basis points from the year earlier period. Risk adjusted margin (net finance margin after provision for credit losses) was 3.30%, up 70 basis points from the prior year quarter, as lower charge-offs contributed to the improvement. Year to date, risk 2 adjusted margin was 3.19%, up 72 basis points. Credit Quality Credit performance continued to improve with lower charge-offs and declines in both delinquencies and non-performing assets for the seventh consecutive quarter. Total 60+ day owned delinquencies declined to $571 million (1.79% of finance receivables) at June 30, 2004, from $609 million (1.89%) last quarter and $926 million (3.26%) last year. Delinquencies improved across all commercial segments including continued reductions in Equipment Finance and the telecommunications portfolio. Year over year, delinquencies were down in all segments. Managed 60+ day delinquencies also decreased, ending the current quarter at $869 million (2.08%), down from $928 million (2.20%) at March 31, 2004 and $1.278 billion (3.20%) a year ago. Non-performing assets (non-accrual loans plus repossessed assets) declined to $562 million (1.77% of finance receivables) from $667 million (2.07%) at March 31, 2004 and $941 million (3.31%) last year, due to improvements in all segments. Charge-offs for the quarter fell from both last quarter and last year as virtually all business segments improved. Current quarter net charge-offs also included a higher level of recoveries. The following tables provide additional charge-off data as a percentage of average finance receivables. Prior period balances have been restated to conform to current presentation. ($ in millions): 3

4 The components of the reserve for credit losses are shown in the following table ($ in millions):
June 30, 2004 March 31, 2004 June 30, 2003 -------------------- -------------------- -------------------- Amount % Amount % Amount % -------- ------ -------- ------- -------- ------ Finance receivables $544.1 1.73% $531.4 1.68% $491.8 1.78% Telecommunications (1) 76.9 18.20% 92.8 18.56% 128.1 19.77% Argentina (2) -- -- 12.5 69.83% 135.0 80.36% ------ ------ ------ Total $621.0 1.95% $636.7 1.98% $754.9 2.66% ====== ====== ======
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) Percentage is based on finance receivables in telecommunications portfolio. (2) Percentage is based on finance receivables in Argentina. Total reserves declined due to the sale of remaining Argentine receivables and $15.9 million in telecommunications charge-offs. The telecommunications portfolio totaled $422.6 million, including the competitive local exchange carrier ("CLEC") exposure of $159.0 million at June 30, 2004. Total telecommunications non-performing accounts were $48.5 million, compared to $65.7 million last quarter. CLEC non-performing accounts were $21.6 million, compared to $34.4 million at March 31, 2004. Other Revenue For the quarter, other revenue totaled $233.5 million, compared to $229.7 million for the prior year. Fees and other income for the quarter included increased fees related to syndication activity done in Capital Finance principally for risk management purposes. This was offset in part by a pretax charge of $11.9 million to reduce approximately $120 million of recreational vehicle and marine assets to estimated fair market value following the decision this quarter to pursue a more rapid liquidation of these portfolios. The sale of the test equipment rental business resulted in a $13.1 million pre-tax gain. Factoring commissions continue to outpace the prior year benefiting from the late 2003 acquisitions. Year to date other revenue totaled $463.9 million, compared to $469.6 million for the year ago period, principally due to lower securitization income. During the quarter, securitization volume was down significantly from the prior year, $0.8 billion compared with $1.7 billion, as both commercial and consumer securitization volume declined. As a result, securitization gains dropped to $11.9 million, 4.1% of pretax income, from $33.8 million, 14.8%. 5 Salaries and General Operating Expenses Salaries and general operating expenses were $260.3 million for the quarter, up from $220.7 million for the June 30, 2003 quarter. The increase was primarily the result of higher incentive-based compensation, employee separation costs related to business realignments, and acquisition activities. Expenses as a percentage of average managed assets were 2.23% during the June 30, 2004 quarter (2.19% for the six months), versus 1.93% for the prior year quarter (1.97% for the prior year six months). Headcount totaled approximately 5,705 at June 30, 2004, down from 5,845 at June 30, 2003, reflecting the sale of the test equipment rental business at the end of the quarter. For the six months, expenses were $507.6 million for 2004, up from $446.3 million for 2003. Profitability Return on average earning assets improved to 1.86% from 1.53% in the last year quarter and to 1.95% from 1.50% for the six months. The return on average managed assets improved to 1.52% from 1.20% for the quarter and to 1.58% from 1.16% for the six months. Results by Business Segment During the quarter, we combined our Capital Finance and Structured Finance businesses and moved the communications and media portfolios from Structured Finance to Commercial Finance to better align with the marketplace and to improve efficiency. Prior period balances have been restated to conform to current presentation. The following tables provide individual segment data ($ in millions): Specialty Finance
Quarters Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, --------------------------- --------------------------- 2004 2003 2004 2003 -------- -------- -------- -------- Operating margin $ 230.3 $ 204.4 $ 458.4 $ 394.9 Income before provision for income tax $ 124.6 $ 103.2 $ 247.5 $ 188.8 New business volume $3,278.3 $2,937.3 $6,854.2 $6,010.3
Specialty Finance operating margin improved due to higher asset levels, lower funding costs and lower charge-offs with improved profitability most notable in the small ticket leasing businesses. Specialty Finance return on AEA improved to 2.43% and 2.44% for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004, up from 2.07% and 1.91% for the prior year periods. The gain on the sale of the technology rental business was essentially offset by the previously mentioned write-down to fair value of the recreation vehicle and marine portfolio receivables. New business volume increased from the prior 6 year primarily in vendor finance and from bulk receivable purchases in the consumer and international units. Commercial Finance
Quarters Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, --------------------------- --------------------------- 2004 2003 2004 2003 -------- -------- -------- -------- Operating margin $ 164.5 $ 146.1 $ 321.5 $ 287.1 Income before provision for income tax $ 114.6 $ 103.3 $ 224.1 $ 200.8 New business volume $ 778.4 $ 968.6 $1,445.6 $1,385.8
During the quarter, the communications and media assets (approximately $1.3 billion) of the former Structured Finance segment were transferred to this segment. Profitability was strong largely due to syndication activity in the media portfolio. Commercial Finance improvements reflected continued strong asset-based lending volume coupled with increased factoring activity resulting from acquisitions and lower charge-offs in both asset-based lending and factoring. These improvements were partially offset by lower fees and other income in the asset-based lending unit compared to the prior year. Return on AEA continued to be strong at 3.47% and 3.43% for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004, up from 3.25% and 3.24% for the prior year periods. Equipment Finance
Quarters Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, --------------------------- --------------------------- 2004 2003 2004 2003 -------- -------- -------- -------- Operating margin $ 52.7 $ 35.8 $ 100.0 $ 76.0 Income before provision for income tax $ 30.0 $ 13.0 $ 55.0 $ 30.5 New business volume $1,049.2 $ 857.5 $1,971.3 $1,686.4
Equipment Finance operating margin and pretax profitability improvements reflected lower charge-offs, improved margins and higher equipment gains. Return on AEA was 1.06% and 0.97% for the quarter and six months, up from 0.46% and 0.53% for the prior year periods, as profitability improvement was broad-based across business lines in both the U.S. and Canada. New business volume increased primarily in the U.S., reflecting improvement in the construction, industrial and corporate aircraft sectors. Capital Finance
Quarters Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, --------------------------- --------------------------- 2004 2003 2004 2003 -------- -------- -------- -------- Operating margin $ 80.1 $ 49.0 $ 140.2 $ 95.1 Income before provision for income tax $ 49.4 $ 26.6 $ 83.7 $ 50.4 New business volume $ 487.5 $ 474.3 $ 650.1 $ 766.0
The stronger operating margin and pre-tax income resulted primarily from higher assets, increased prepayment and syndication fees and lower charge-offs. 7 Partially offsetting this improvement was additional depreciation expense of approximately $15 million to reduce certain older leased aircraft to estimated fair value. Return on AEA was 1.36% and 1.16% for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004, up from 0.77% and 0.75% for the prior year periods. New business volume was down primarily due to lower aircraft delivery fundings. All remaining 2004 aircraft deliveries have been placed. At June 30, 2004, three commercial aircraft (all covered by signed letters of intent) were off lease, compared to four at March 31, 2004. Corporate and Other
Quarters Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, --------------------------- --------------------------- 2004 2003 2004 2003 -------- -------- -------- -------- Operating margin $ 22.1 $ 14.2 $ 45.5 $ 34.6 (Loss) before income tax $ (29.2) $ (17.3) $ (10.5) $ (29.1)
Corporate and Other reflects certain interest and other operating expenses not allocated to business segments, venture capital activities, as well as the first quarter 2004 gain on debt redemption. Funding and Liquidity Commercial paper was $4.2 billion, down from $4.6 billion at June 30, 2003 and $4.8 billion in the prior quarter. Term-debt issued during the quarter totaled $3.4 billion - $2.7 billion in variable-rate, medium-term notes and $0.7 billion in fixed-rate notes. Capitalization and Leverage The ratio of tangible equity to managed assets improved to 10.89% as of June 30, 2004, compared to 10.69% at March 31, 2004 and 10.50% last year, as the internal capital generation ratio remained strong for the quarter. Treasury stock increased to $33 million in connection with the share repurchase program announced last quarter.

Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by management are meant to provide additional information and insight relative to trends in the business to investors and, in certain cases, to present financial information as measured by rating agencies and other users of financial information. These measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, GAAP and may be different from, or inconsistent with, non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. 1) Managed assets are utilized in certain credit and expense ratios. Securitized assets are included in managed assets because CIT retains certain credit risk and the servicing related to assets that are funded through securitizations. 2) Earning assets are utilized in certain revenue and earnings ratios.
