|
JDCC's net income was $67.5 million for the quarter and $129.8 million for the first six months, compared with net income of $42.6 million and $114.5 million, respectively, last year. This year's results benefited primarily from lower loan losses, improved results in Argentina and a larger average portfolio. Partially offsetting these factors were lower gains resulting from a reduced volume of retail notes sold and narrower financing spreads. |
|
Net receivables and leases financed by JDCC were $12.359 billion at April 30, 2003, compared with $10.313 billion one year ago. The increase resulted from acquisitions exceeding collections during the last 12 months and the lower volume of sales of retail notes. Net receivables and leases administered, which include receivables previously sold, totaled $14.457 billion at April 30, 2003, compared with $13.340 billion one year ago. |
