Item 5.

Other Information Events.

John Deere Capital Corporation's (JDCC's) net income was $36.0 million for the third quarter and $115.9 million for the first nine months of 2001, compared with $40.5 million and $109.1 million, respectively, last year. The decrease for the third quarter is primarily due to lower gains from sales of retail notes and higher receivable write-offs. The year-to-date increase is primarily due to higher income from a larger portfolio. Net receivables and leases financed by JDCC were $8.953 billion at July 31, 2001, compared with $7.783 billion one year ago. The increase resulted from acquisitions exceeding collections during the last twelve months. This was partially offset by sales of retail notes during the same period. Net receivables and leases administered, which include receivables previously sold, totaled $10.659 billion at July 31, 2001, compared with $9.981 billion at July 31, 2000.
