NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Note 1 – Interim Financial Data

The information furnished in these unaudited interim financial statements for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.  In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information reflects all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented.  The results of operations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007 do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for the full year.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements, significant accounting policies, and other notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Toyota Motor Credit Corporation’s 2007 Annual Report to the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K.  References herein to “TMCC” denote Toyota Motor Credit Corporation, and references herein to “we”, “our”, and “us” denote Toyota Motor Credit Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.

New Accounting Standards

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard provides a consistent definition of fair value which focuses on exit price and prioritizes, within a measurement of fair value, the use of market-based inputs over specific entity inputs.  The standard establishes a three level hierarchy for fair value measurements based on the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date.  SFAS 157 will be effective for us as of April 1, 2008.  We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 157 on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”), which will be effective for us as of April 1, 2008. This standard provides an option to irrevocably elect fair value as an alternative measurement for selected financial assets, financial liabilities, unrecognized firm commitments, and written loan commitments. Under SFAS 159, fair value would be used for both the initial and subsequent measurement of the designated assets, liabilities, and commitments, with the changes recognized in earnings. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 159 on our consolidated financial statements.

Represents the effects of foreign currency transaction gains and losses on notes denominated in foreign currencies, fair value adjustments to notes in hedge accounting relationships, and the unamortized fair value adjustments on the hedged item for terminated fair value hedge accounting relationships.

The carrying value of our notes and loans payable includes unsecured notes denominated in various foreign currencies valued at $21 billion and $17 billion at December 31 and March 31, 2007, respectively.  Concurrent with the issuance of these unsecured notes, we entered into cross currency interest rate swap agreements or a combination of interest rate swaps coupled with currency basis swaps in the same notional amount to convert non-U.S. currency debt to U.S. dollar denominated payments.

Additionally, the carrying value of our notes and loans payable at December 31, 2007 consists of $11 billion of unsecured floating rate notes with contractual interest rates ranging from 0 percent to 8 percent and $37 billion of unsecured fixed rate notes with contractual interest rates ranging from 0 percent to 15 percent.  Upon issuance of fixed rate notes, we generally elect to enter into interest rate swaps to convert fixed rate payments on notes to floating rate payments.

As of December 31, 2007, our commercial paper had an average remaining maturity of 55 days.  Our notes and loans payable mature on various dates through fiscal 2047.
 
Included in the three month results ended December 31, 2007, is a net pre-tax charge of $14.9 million relating to prior quarters of fiscal 2008, and included in the nine month results is $9.3 million of income relating to the prior fiscal year.  The third quarter adjustments is to correct for errors made in the current fiscal year related to accounting for foreign currency translation and certain derivative transactions.  The prior period adjustment for the nine month results is an adjustment relating to other derivative transactions.

In addition to the adjustment described above, in connection with preparing our financial statements for the third quarter of fiscal 2008, we discovered that we have been expensing debt issuance costs as incurred on certain structured financing transactions.  Such costs should have been deferred and amortized as interest expense over the terms of the structured financings.  As a result, interest expense has been overstated in periods which we entered into these structured financing transactions and understated in subsequent periods in which such costs should have been amortized.  We are in the process of completing our analysis and will record the actual amount of the correction in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008.  As of the date of this filing, we do not expect that the cumulative effect will exceed $20 million.

Commitments

Of the total credit facilities available to vehicle and industrial equipment dealers, $4 billion and $3 billion were outstanding at December 31, and March 31, 2007, respectively.  TCPR has a $110 million revolving line of credit with Toyota de Puerto Rico Corp (“TDPR”), a subsidiary of Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc.  The amount outstanding with TDPR at December 31, 2007 was $42 million.

Guarantees and Other Contingencies

TMCC has guaranteed certain bond obligations relating to two affiliates totaling $148 million of principal and interest that were issued by Putnam County, West Virginia and Gibson County, Indiana.  The bonds mature in the following fiscal years: 2028 - $20 million; 2029 - $50 million; 2030 - $38 million; 2031 - $30 million; and 2032 - $10 million.  TMCC would be required to perform under the guarantees in the event of failure by the affiliates to fulfill their obligations; bankruptcy involving the affiliates or TMCC; or failure to observe any covenant, condition, or agreement under the guarantees by the affiliates, bond issuers, or TMCC.

Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)

These guarantees include provisions whereby TMCC is entitled to reimbursement by the affiliates for amounts paid.  TMCC receives an annual fee of $102,000 for guaranteeing such payments.  TMCC has not been required to perform under any of these affiliate bond guarantees as of December 31 and March 31, 2007.  The fair value of these guarantees as of December 31 and March 31, 2007 was approximately $1 million.  As of December 31 and March 31, 2007, no liability amounts have been recorded related to the guarantees as management has determined that it is not probable that we would be required to perform under these affiliate bond guarantees.  In addition, other than the fee discussed above, there are no corresponding expenses or cash flows arising from these guarantees.

Indemnification

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into agreements containing indemnification provisions standard in the industry related to several types of transactions, including, but not limited to, debt funding, derivatives, securitization transactions, and our vendor and supplier agreements.  Performance under these indemnities would occur upon a breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made or given, or a third party claim.  In addition, we have agreed in certain debt and derivative issuances, and subject to certain exceptions, to gross-up payments due to third parties in the event that withholding tax is imposed on such payments.  In addition, certain of our funding arrangements would require us to pay lenders for increased costs due to certain changes in laws or regulations.  Due to the difficulty in predicting events which could cause a breach of the indemnification provisions or trigger a gross-up or other payment obligation, we are not able to estimate our maximum exposure to future payments that could result from claims made under such provisions.  We have not made any material payments in the past as a result of these provisions, and as of December 31, 2007, we determined that it is not probable that we will be required to make any material payments in the future. As of December 31 and March 31, 2007, no amounts have been recorded under these indemnifications.

Litigation

Various legal actions, governmental proceedings and other claims are pending or may be instituted or asserted in the future against us with respect to matters arising in the ordinary course of business.  Certain of these actions are or purport to be class action suits, seeking sizeable damages and/or changes in our business operations, policies and practices.  Certain of these actions are similar to suits that have been filed against other financial institutions and captive finance companies.  Our management and internal and external counsel perform periodic reviews of pending claims and actions to determine the probability of adverse verdicts and resulting amounts of liability.  We establish reserves for legal claims when payments associated with the claims become probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated.  The actual costs of resolving legal claims and associated costs of defense may be substantially higher or lower than the amounts reserved for these claims.  However, based on information currently available, the advice of counsel, and established reserves, our management expects that the ultimate liability resulting therefrom will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.  We caution that the eventual development, outcome and cost of legal proceedings are by their nature uncertain and subject to many factors, including but not limited to, the discovery of facts not presently known to us or determinations by judges, juries or other finders of fact which do not accord with our evaluation of the possible liability from existing litigation.

Note 11 – Income Taxes

Income Tax Provision

Our effective tax rate was 33 percent for the first nine months of fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2007.  No significant changes occurred in our effective rate from the prior period.

FASB Interpretation No. 48

We adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – and interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”) effective April 1, 2007.  Due to the immaterial impact of adopting FIN 48, no adjustment was made to beginning retained earnings.  Our income taxes receivable at March 31, 2007 was $342 million.  After recognition of unrealized tax benefits related to FIN 48 and adjustment to existing reserves related to the implementation of FIN 48, the income tax receivable was $343 million at April 1, 2007.  We recognized a net favorable impact from the adoption of FIN 48 due to the favorable reversal of certain timing related items in fiscal 2007.

We recognize interest related to income tax uncertainties as a component of pre-tax income and penalties as addition to tax as a component of tax provision, consistent with our policy prior to the adoption of FIN 48.

Tax Related Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company’s tax filings are examined by various tax authorities, including the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”).  During the quarter ended December 31, 2007, the IRS concluded its examination of the taxable periods ended September 30, 1997 through March 31, 2003.  We estimate our allocated tax and interest refund to be approximately $79 million.  The IRS continues to examine the taxable years ended March 31, 2004 through March 31, 2006.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


OPERATING SUMMARY

We generate revenue, income, and cash flows by providing retail financing, leasing, dealer financing, and certain other financial products and services to vehicle and industrial equipment dealers and their customers.  We measure the performance of our financing operations using the following metrics:

·  
Financing volume
·  
Market share related to Toyota and Lexus vehicle sales
·  
Return on assets
·  
Financial leverage
·  
Financing margins
·  
Operating efficiency
·  
Loss metrics

We also generate revenue through marketing, underwriting, and administering agreements related to covering certain risks of vehicle dealers and their customers.  We measure the performance of our insurance operations using the following metrics:

·  
Agreement volume
·  
Number of agreements in force
·  
Investment portfolio return
·  
Loss metrics

Our consolidated net loss was $80 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 compared to our consolidated net income of $123 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2007.  Our consolidated net income was $118 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2008 compared to $334 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2007.  In the third quarter of fiscal 2008, we experienced a significant deterioration in the credit performance of our consumer loan and lease portfolio.  The softening U.S. economy and the declining housing market negatively impacted certain of our customers’ ability to make monthly payments.  While these indicators were evident earlier in the year, the impact of consumer performance issues was much more pronounced in the third quarter of fiscal 2008.  Due to the impact of the change in the credit environment, we recorded higher charge-offs for the quarter and increased our allowance for credit losses.  Our results were further negatively impacted by the increase in total interest expense.  Total interest expense increased due to higher unrealized losses on our derivatives used to manage interest rate risk and to a lesser extent, higher outstanding debt balances.  These adverse developments were partially offset by the increase in our financing revenues, which were favorably impacted by increased contract volume and higher portfolio yields on our finance receivables.

Our financing operations reported net loss of $139 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 compared to our consolidated net income of $100 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2007.  Our financing operations reported net income of $18 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2008 compared to net income of $271 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2007.  The decrease in net income was adversely impacted by a higher provision for credit losses resulting from the effect of the softening U.S. economy and deepening mortgage crisis on our customers.  The decrease in net income also resulted from increased total interest expense due to unrealized losses on our derivatives and higher outstanding debt balances as discussed above.

-20-



Our insurance operations reported net income of $59 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 compared to $23 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2007.  Our insurance operations reported net income of $100 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2008 compared to $63 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2007.   The increase in net income during the first nine months of fiscal 2008 resulted from the increase in contract revenues and earned premiums, partially offset by the increase in insurance losses and loss adjustment expenses.  Insurance losses and loss adjustment expenses increased primarily due to the increases in average number of agreements in force and average loss severity.  Our insurance operations also reported higher net realized gains on its investment portfolio in fiscal 2008.

Net financing revenues decreased 53 percent and 9 percent during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008, respectively, compared to the same periods in fiscal 2007.  The decrease in our net financing revenues was impacted by the increase in total interest expense.  This includes unrealized losses on our derivatives used to manage interest rate risk and to a lesser extent, higher outstanding debt balances.  Refer to the “Interest Expense” section within this MD&A for further discussion regarding interest expense.  The decline in our net financing revenues was partially offset by our higher portfolio yields on our finance receivables along with an overall increase in the finance receivables balance.  Our financing revenues were influenced as follows:

·  
Our operating lease revenues and direct finance lease revenues on a combined basis were up 19 percent and 21 percent during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008, respectively, compared to the same periods in fiscal 2007.  This increase was primarily driven by our higher investments in operating leases, partially offset by the decrease in direct finance leases as a substantial number of our new vehicle leases are classified as operating leases.

·  
Our retail financing revenues increased 23 percent and 27 percent during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008, respectively, compared to the same periods in fiscal 2007.  This was due to an increase in retail finance receivables with a corresponding increase in our portfolio yield.

·  
Dealer financing revenues increased 22 percent and 24 percent during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008, respectively, compared to the same periods in fiscal 2007 primarily due to an increase in the number of dealers serviced which led to a higher average outstanding balance on dealer financing earning assets.

Our total finance receivables portfolio yield was 7.4 percent and 7.3 percent for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008, respectively, compared to 7.1 percent and 6.8 percent for the same periods in fiscal 2007.

-22-



Depreciation expense on operating leases increased 22 percent and 24 percent during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008, respectively, compared to the same periods in fiscal 2007.  This increase is consistent with the increase in the average number of operating lease units outstanding during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008 compared to the same period in fiscal 2007.  Refer to the “Residual Value Risk” section within this MD&A for further discussion.

Our total retail market share of new Toyota and Lexus vehicles increased in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008 compared to the same periods in fiscal 2007.  Lease market share of new Toyota and Lexus vehicles increased in the third quarter, but decreased over the first nine months of fiscal 2008 compared to the same periods in fiscal 2007.  Our overall retail and lease financing volume increased for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008 compared to the same periods in fiscal 2007.

Retail Finance Receivables and Financing Volume

Increased retail finance receivables and vehicle retail financing volume was due to higher Toyota and Lexus vehicle sales combined with our emphasis on developing dealer relationships.  Our retail market share of TMS new vehicle sales increased in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008 compared to the same periods in fiscal 2007.  This was due to the increased availability of TMS retail subvention, strong dealer relationships and the increase in the number of vehicle dealers receiving wholesale financing.  We generally experience a higher level of retail financing volume as a result of these relationships.

-24-


Lease Earning Assets and Financing Volume

Total lease earning assets are comprised of investments in operating leases and direct finance leases.  Our vehicle lease financing volume is impacted by the level of Toyota and Lexus vehicle sales, the availability of subvention programs, and changes in the interest rate environment. Our vehicle lease financing volume increased for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 compared to the same period in fiscal 2007 primarily due to the increase in the extent of TMS lease subvention.  Our vehicle lease financing volume remained relatively consistent for the first nine months of fiscal 2008 compared to the same periods in fiscal 2007.

Dealer Financing Earning Assets

Dealer financing increased primarily due to the continued growth in the number of vehicle dealers receiving wholesale financing.  In the third quarter of fiscal 2008, we had 448 vehicle dealers outside of the Toyota/Lexus dealer network compared to 409 in fiscal 2007.  This increase is primarily due to a noticeable increase in affiliated dealerships owned by Toyota.


Residual Value Risk

The primary factors affecting our exposure to residual value risk are the levels at which residual values are established at lease inception, current economic conditions and outlook, projected market values, and the resulting impact on vehicle lease return rates and loss severity.   The softening U.S. economy did not adversely impact our residual values at December 31, 2007.

Our management periodically reviews the estimated end of term market values of leased vehicles to assess the appropriateness of our carrying values.  To the extent the estimated end of term market value of a leased vehicle is lower than the residual value established at lease inception, the residual value of the leased vehicle is adjusted downward so that the carrying value at lease end will approximate the estimated end of term market value.  These adjustments are made over time for operating leases by recording depreciation expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Depreciation expense on operating leases increased during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008 compared to the same periods in fiscal 2007 due to an increase in the average number of operating lease vehicles outstanding.  Depreciation expense can also be affected by changes in the used vehicle market because used vehicle market trends are a significant factor in estimating end of term market values.  The used vehicle market did not materially contribute to the increase in depreciation expense for fiscal 2008.

3 Net charge-off ratios have been annualized using nine-month results.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2008, we experienced a significant deterioration in the credit performance of our loan and lease portfolio.  The softening U.S. economy and the declining housing market negatively impacted certain of our customers’ ability to make their monthly payments.  While these indicators were evident earlier in the year, the impact of consumer performance issues was much more pronounced in the third quarter of fiscal 2008.

The impact of the change in the credit environment contributed to higher contract defaults, higher loss severity and lower recoveries.  We experienced an overall increase in 60-day delinquencies and an increase in credit related costs due to a broader range of credit quality coupled with longer term contracts within the retail portfolio.  In addition, higher credit risk and exposure within the retail portfolio affected the frequency and severity of past due accounts and net credit losses.  As a result, management strengthened its collection practices in an effort to mitigate credit losses and increased the provision for credit losses.  Our provision increased substantially during the third quarter and first nine monthsof fiscal 2008 compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily reflecting indicators of diminishing credit such as higher delinquencies in the consumer portfolio, adverse trends in the macroeconomic environment and a change in estimate of loan losses.

The allowance for credit losses at the end of period increased 28% to $672 million at December 31, 2007 compared to $526 million at December 31, 2006.  The determination of our allowance level is based on comprehensive, adequately documented, and consistently applied analysis.  Estimated losses reflect historical net charge-off levels, adjusted for changes in current conditions or other relevant factors.  Management believes it considers all material factors that may affect the allowance account.  These factors include: current economic conditions and outlook, historical loss experience, used vehicle market, purchase quality mix, contract term length, operational factors, and credit quality of the portfolio at quarter end.

Our insurance operations reported $59 million and $100 million of net income for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008, respectively, compared to $23 million and $63 million for the same periods in fiscal 2007.  Insurance earned premiums and contract revenues were $97 million and $285 million for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008, respectively, compared to $84 million and $246 million for the same periods in fiscal 2007.  The increase in insurance earned premiums and contract revenues primarily relate to the increased number of agreements issued and in force as a result of stronger dealer relationships.

Insurance losses and loss adjustment expenses were $39 million and $117 million for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008, respectively, compared to $31 million and $95 million for the same periods in fiscal 2007.  The increase in insurance losses and loss adjustment expenses primarily relate to the increased claims reported on vehicle service agreements due to the increased number of agreements in force and average loss severity.  The increase in loss severity was primarily driven by an increase in auto repair costs.

Our insurance operations reported $75 million and $116 million of investment income on marketable securities for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008, respectively, compared to $23 million and $61 million for the same periods in fiscal 2007.  The increase in investment income for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008 was primarily due to higher net realized gains.  We also experienced higher interest and dividend income as the result of higher investment balances and investment yields.

-28-


INVESTMENT AND OTHER INCOME

Our consolidated investment and other income is primarily comprised of investment income on marketable securities, investment income from securitizations, and other income. We reported $126 million and $234 million of investment income and other income in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008, respectively, compared to $51 million and $129 million for the same periods in fiscal 2007.  Of these amounts, $75 million and $116 million of investment income on marketable securities were reported by our insurance operations for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008, respectively.  Refer to the “Insurance Operations” section within this MD&A for further discussion regarding investment income on marketable securities.

We reported $51 million and $115 million of other income for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008 respectively, compared to $26 million and $56 million for the same periods in fiscal 2007.  Other income primarily consists of interest income on cash held in excess of our immediate funding needs, which increased primarily due to higher average balances outstanding and higher yields earned during fiscal 2008.

We reported $0.3 million and $2 million of investment income from securitizations for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008 respectively, compared to $2 million and $10 million for the same periods in fiscal 2007.  The decline was due to a reduction in the average outstanding balance of securitization pools as a result of the amortization of the related receivables and fewer outstanding transactions. The outstanding balance of securitized finance receivables we service decreased to $31 million at December 31, 2007 from $237 million at December 31, 2006.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity risk is the risk arising from the inability to meet obligations when they come due.  Our liquidity strategy is to maintain the capacity to fund assets and repay liabilities in a timely and cost-effective manner even in the event of adverse market conditions.  This capacity primarily arises from our ability to raise funds in the global capital markets as well as our ability to generate liquidity from our balance sheet.  This strategy has led us to develop a borrowing base that is diversified by market and geographic distribution, type of security, and investor type, among other factors, as well as a securitization program.  Credit support provided by our parent provides an additional source of liquidity to us, although it is not relied upon in our liquidity planning and capital and risk management.

Includes carrying value adjustments of $2 billion and $1 billion at December 31 and March 31, 2007, respectively, as described in Note 7- Debt of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

We do not rely on any single source of funding and may choose to realign our funding activities depending upon market conditions, relative costs, and other factors.  We believe that our funding sources, combined with operating and investing activities, provide sufficient liquidity to meet future funding requirements and business growth.  Our funding volume is based on asset growth and debt maturities.

For liquidity purposes, we hold cash in excess of our immediate funding needs.  These excess funds are invested in short-term, highly liquid and investment grade money market instruments, which provide liquidity for our short-term funding needs and flexibility in the use of our other funding sources.  We maintained excess funds ranging from $764 million to $4 billion during the three months ended December 31, 2007, with an average balance of $3 billion.

We may lend to or borrow from affiliates on terms based upon a number of business factors such as funds availability, cash flow timing, relative cost of funds, and market access capabilities.

Commercial Paper

Short-term funding needs are met through the issuance of commercial paper in the United States.  Commercial paper outstanding under our commercial paper programs ranged from approximately $18 billion to $21 billion during the three months ended December 31, 2007, with an average outstanding balance of $20 billion.  Our commercial paper programs are supported by the liquidity facilities discussed later in this section.  As a commercial paper issuer rated A-1+ by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. (“S&P”), and P-1 by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), we believe there is ample capacity to meet our short-term funding requirements.

1 Amounts represent par values at issuance, and as such exclude unamortized premium/discount, foreign currency
   transaction gains and losses on debt denominated in foreign currencies, fair value adjustments to debt in hedge
   accounting relationships, and the unamortized fair value adjustments on the hedged item for terminated hedge
   accounting relationships. Par values of non-U.S. currency denominated notes are determined using foreign exchange
   rates applicable as of the issuance dates.  Par values of zero coupon notes represent amounts to be paid at maturity.
2 MTNs and domestic bonds had terms to maturity ranging from approximately 1 year to 30 years, and had interest rates
  at the time of issuance ranging from 0 percent to 10 percent.
3 EMTNs were issued in U.S. and non-U.S. currencies, had terms to maturity ranging from approximately 1 year to
   20 years, and had interest rates at the time of issuance ranging from 0 percent to 15 percent.
4 Consists of fixed and floating rate debt.  Upon the issuance of fixed rate debt, we generally elect to enter into pay-float
   interest rate swaps.  See “Derivative Instruments” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007
   for a detailed description of our use of derivatives.


We maintain a shelf registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to provide for the issuance of debt securities in the U.S. capital markets to both retail and institutional investors.  We qualify as a well-known seasoned issuer under SEC rules, and as a result, we may issue under our registration statement an unlimited amount of debt securities during the three year period ending March 2009.  Our EMTN program provides for the issuance of debt securities in the international capital markets.  In September 2007, the EMTN program was renewed for a one year period, and the

-31-


Company’s affiliates Toyota Motor Finance (Netherlands) B.V., Toyota Credit Canada Inc. and Toyota Finance Australia Limited joined the EMTN program as issuers.  The maximum aggregate principal amount authorized to be outstanding at any time was increased from $30 billion to €40 billion, or the equivalent in other currencies, of which approximately €18 billion was available for issuance at January 31, 2008.  The authorized amount is shared among all issuers on the program.  Our EMTN program may be expanded from time to time to allow for the continued use of this source of funding.  In addition, we may issue bonds in the international capital markets that are not issued under our U.S. or EMTN programs.  Debt securities issued under the U.S. shelf registration statement are issued pursuant to the terms of an indenture, and EMTNs are issued pursuant to the terms of an agency agreement, both of which contain customary terms and conditions.

Liquidity Facilities and Letters of Credit

For additional liquidity purposes, we maintain syndicated bank credit facilities with certain banks.

364 Day Credit Agreement
In March 2007, TMCC, Toyota Credit de Puerto Rico Corp. (“TCPR”), and other Toyota affiliates entered into a $4 billion 364 day syndicated bank credit facility pursuant to a 364 Day Credit Agreement.  The ability to make draws is subject to covenants and conditions customary in a transaction of this nature, including negative pledge and cross default provisions.  The 364 Day Credit Agreement may be used for general corporate purposes and was not drawn upon as of December 31 and March 31, 2007.

Five Year Credit Agreement
In March 2007, TMCC, TCPR, and other Toyota affiliates entered into an $8 billion five year syndicated bank credit facility pursuant to a Five Year Credit Agreement. The ability to make draws is subject to covenants and conditions customary in a transaction of this nature, including negative pledge and cross default provisions.  The Five Year Credit Agreement may be used for general corporate purposes and was not drawn upon as of December 31 and March 31, 2007.

Letters of Credit Facilities Agreement
In addition, TMCC has uncommitted letters of credit facilities totaling $55 million at December 31 and March 31, 2007.  Of the total credit facilities, $1 million of the uncommitted letters of credit facilities was used at December 31 and March 31, 2007.

Securitization
Our securitization program represents an additional source of liquidity.  As of December 31, 2007, we owned approximately $43 billion in potentially securitizable retail finance receivables.  We maintain an effective shelf registration statement that complies with Regulation AB, the SEC’s rule governing the offering of asset backed securities, and can be used to issue asset backed securities secured by our retail finance contracts.  During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007, we did not execute any securitization transactions.  A detailed description of our securitization program is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007 under “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements”.

The cost and availability of unsecured financing is influenced by credit ratings, which are intended to be an indicator of the creditworthiness of a particular company, security, or obligation.  Lower ratings generally result in higher borrowing costs as well as reduced access to capital markets.  Credit ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell, or hold securities, and are subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning nationally recognized statistical rating organization (“NRSRO”).  Each NRSRO may have different criteria for evaluating risk, and therefore ratings should be evaluated independently for each NRSRO. Our credit ratings depend in part on the existence of the credit support agreements of Toyota Financial Services Corporation (“TFSC”) and Toyota Motor Corporation (“TMC”).  See “Item 1A. Risk Factors - Credit Support” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

We enter into derivative instruments for risk management purposes.  Our use of derivatives is limited to the management of interest rate and foreign exchange risks.

We categorize derivatives as those designated for hedge accounting (“hedge accounting derivatives”) and those that are not designated for hedge accounting (“non-hedge accounting derivatives”).  Hedge accounting derivatives are comprised of pay-float interest rate swaps and cross currency interest rate swaps.  Non-hedge accounting derivatives are comprised of pay-fixed interest rate swaps, de-designated pay-float interest rate swaps, pay-float interest rate swaps for which hedge accounting has not been elected, interest rate caps, and currency basis swaps.  We discontinue the use of hedge accounting if a derivative is sold, terminated or exercised, or if our management determines that designating a derivative under hedge accounting is no longer appropriate (“de-designated derivatives”).  De-designated derivatives are included within the category of non-hedge accounting derivatives.  A detailed description of our accounting for derivative instruments is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007 under “Derivative Instruments”.

One of our goals is to manage the interest rate risk arising from the differences in timing between the re-pricing of assets relative to liabilities.  We use non-hedge accounting derivatives, specifically pay-fixed interest rate swaps and interest rate caps, to manage this exposure.  The use of these non-hedge accounting derivatives to mitigate interest rate risk has historically resulted in significant volatility in the net result from non-hedge accounting.  The combination of the changes in fair values of de-designated derivatives with those of non-hedge accounting derivatives has had the effect of reducing earnings volatility.  Our management does not engage in de-designation with a view as to the favorable or unfavorable impact on the results of operations.  De-designation has resulted in lower losses in the net result from non-hedge accounting in certain quarters and in lower gains in the net result from non-hedge accounting in other quarters.  These decreases represent reductions in volatility in the net result from non-hedge accounting.  We estimate that the impact of de-designation on the results of operations was a reduction in the volatility in net result from non-hedge accounting of approximately $21 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2007, and approximately $8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2006.  Our management evaluates the reduction of volatility on a quarterly basis only.

Represents cash received under reciprocal collateral arrangements that we have entered into with certain derivative counterparties as described in the “Counterparty Credit Risk” section below.

Counterparty Credit Risk

We enter into reciprocal collateral arrangements with certain counterparties to mitigate our exposure to the credit risk associated with the respective counterparty.  A valuation of our position with the respective counterparty is performed at least monthly.  If the market value of our net derivatives position with the counterparty exceeds a specified threshold, the counterparty is required to transfer cash collateral in excess of the threshold to us.  Conversely, if the market value of the counterparty's net derivatives position with us exceeds a specified threshold, we are required to transfer cash collateral in excess of the threshold to the counterparty.  Our International Swaps and Derivatives Association (“ISDA”) Master Agreements with counterparties contain legal right of offset provisions, and therefore the collateral amounts are netted against derivative assets, which are included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.  At December 31 and March 31, 2007, we held a net $908 million and $291 million, respectively, in collateral from counterparties, which is included in cash and cash equivalents in our Consolidated Balance Sheet.  We are not required to hold the collateral in a segregated account.

Counterparty credit risk of derivative instruments is represented by the net fair market value of derivative contracts at December 31, 2007, reduced by collateral.  At December 31, 2007, substantially all of our derivative instruments were executed with commercial banks and investment banking firms assigned investment grade ratings of "A" or better by NRSROs.  We have not experienced a counterparty default and have no reserves related to non-performance as of December 31, 2007.  In addition, many of our ISDA Master Agreements with counterparties contain reciprocal ratings triggers providing either party with an option to terminate the agreement and related transactions at market value in the event of a ratings downgrade below a specified threshold.

Three Months Ended December 31, 2007 vs. December 31, 2006

Interest expense on debt primarily represents the interest due on notes and loans payable and commercial paper.  The increase during the third quarter of fiscal 2008 when compared to the same period in fiscal 2007 was primarily due to higher outstanding balances on unsecured debt and commercial paper and increased average cost of debt.

The amortization of basis adjustments on debt is primarily comprised of amortization related to the fair value adjustments on debt for terminated fair value hedging relationships.  As discussed in the “Derivative Instruments” section of this MD&A, the de-designation of the hedge accounting derivatives resulted in the termination of fair value hedging relationships.  As a consequence of these terminations, the fair value adjustments to the hedged items continue to be reported as part of the basis of the debt and are amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt. The decrease in amortization during the third quarter of fiscal 2008 when compared to the same period in fiscal 2007 was due to maturities during the third quarter of fiscal 2008 of debt associated with previously terminated fair value hedging relationships.

Net interest realized on hedge accounting derivatives represents net interest on pay-float swaps for which hedge accounting has been elected.  The change during the third quarter of fiscal 2008 when compared to the same period in fiscal 2007 was due to the decline of the average three-month LIBOR for the respective periods offset by increased notionals.


Nine Months Ended December 31, 2007 vs. December 31, 2006

The increase in interest expense on debt during the first nine months of fiscal 2008 when compared to the same period in fiscal 2007 was primarily due to higher outstanding balances on unsecured debt and commercial paper and increased average cost of debt.

The decrease in amortization of basis adjustment on debt during the first nine months of fiscal 2008 when compared to the same period in fiscal 2007 was due to maturities during the first nine months of fiscal 2008 of debt associated with previously terminated fair value hedging relationships.

The change in net interest realized on hedge accounting derivatives during the first nine months of fiscal 2008 when compared to the same period in fiscal 2007 was due to increased notionals during the first nine months of fiscal 2008 compared to the same period in fiscal 2007 offset by a decrease in the average three-month LIBOR.

Three Months Ended December 31, 2007 vs. December 31, 2006

Currency basis swaps are used in combination with interest rate swaps to convert non-U.S. dollar denominated debt to U.S. dollar denominated payments.  We have elected hedge accounting for the interest rate swaps and debt, but have elected not to apply hedge accounting for the currency basis swaps. The unrealized gain in the fair value of the currency basis swaps in the third quarter of fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2007 was primarily due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to certain other currencies during the first three months of the respective fiscal year.

The foreign currency transaction gain or loss relates to foreign currency denominated debt where hedge accounting has been applied only for interest rate risk.  The loss recognized in the third quarter of fiscal 2008 when compared to the same period in fiscal 2007 was primarily due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar against certain other currencies. Foreign currency transaction loss offset the unrealized gain on the currency basis swaps discussed above.

Net interest realized on non-hedge accounting derivatives represents net interest received on pay-fixed swaps offset by net interest paid on non-hedge accounting pay-float swaps.  The change for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 when compared to the same period in fiscal 2007 was primarily due to higher interest rates paid on new pay-fixed swaps transacted for the period versus those that matured during the quarter.

The unrealized loss on non-hedge accounting derivatives for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 was due to the decline in the two- and three-year swaps rate on pay-fixed swaps with more than one year to maturity offset by the unrealized gains on the pay-float swaps with more than one year to maturity.  The unrealized loss in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 was due to the decline in market interest rates on pay fixed swaps with less than one year to maturity.

Nine Months Ended December 31, 2007 vs. December 31, 2006

The unrealized gain in the fair value of the currency basis swaps in the first nine months of fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2007 was primarily due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to certain other currencies during the first nine months of the respective fiscal year.

The foreign currency loss recognized in the first nine months of fiscal 2008 when compared to the same period in fiscal 2007 was primarily due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar against certain other currencies.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
TMCC has omitted this section pursuant to General Instruction H(2) of Form 10-Q.


ITEM 4T.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Exchange Act was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules, regulations, and forms.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2007, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Various legal actions, governmental proceedings and other claims are pending or may be instituted or asserted in the future against us with respect to matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Certain of these actions are or purport to be class action suits, seeking sizeable damages and/or changes in our business operations, policies and practices.  Certain of these actions are similar to suits that have been filed against other financial institutions and captive finance companies.  Our management and internal and external counsel perform periodic reviews of pending claims and actions to determine the probability of adverse verdicts and resulting amounts of liability.  We establish reserves for legal claims when payments associated with the claims become probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated.  The actual costs of resolving legal claims and associated costs of defense may be substantially higher or lower than the amounts reserved for these claims.  However, based on information currently available, the advice of counsel, and established reserves, our management expects that the ultimate liability resulting therefrom will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.  We caution that the eventual development, outcome and cost of legal proceedings are by their nature uncertain and subject to many factors, including but not limited to, the discovery of facts not presently known to us or determinations by judges, juries or other finders of fact which do not accord with our evaluation of the possible liability from existing litigation.

ITEM 1A.   RISK FACTORS

The following risk factors discussed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007 have not materially changed for the December 2007 quarter: sales of Toyota and Lexus vehicles, credit support, residual value risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, market risk, operational risk, regulatory risk, counterparty credit risk, factors affecting earnings, competition, risk of catastrophes, concentration of customer risk, insurance reserves, and reinsurance credit risk. Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007 for a complete discussion of these risk factors.
