3 PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS Navistar International Corporation is a holding company and its principal operating subsidiary is Navistar International Transportation Corp. referred to as "Transportation". As used hereafter, "Navistar" or "Company" refers to Navistar International Corporation and its subsidiaries and "Parent Company" refers to Navistar International Corporation alone. Navistar, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Transportation, operates in one principal business segment, the manufacture and marketing of Class 5 through 8 diesel trucks, including school bus chassis, mid- range diesel engines and service parts in the United States and Canada and in selected export markets. Transportation is the industry market share leader in the combined Class 5 through 8 truck market in the United States and Canada, offering a full line of diesel-powered products in the common carrier, private carrier, government/service, leasing, construction, energy/petroleum and student transportation markets. Transportation also produces mid-range diesel engines for use in its Class 5, 6 and 7 medium trucks and for sale to original equipment manufacturers. Transportation markets its products through an extensive distribution network which includes 951 dealer and distribution outlets in the United States and Canada. Service and customer support are also supplied at these outlets. As a further extension of its business, Transportation provides financing and insurance for its dealers, distributors and retail customers through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Navistar Financial Corporation, referred to as "Navistar Financial". See "Important Supporting Operations". THE MEDIUM AND HEAVY TRUCK INDUSTRY The market in which Navistar competes is subject to considerable volatility as it moves in response to cycles in the overall business environment and is particularly sensitive to the industrial sector which generates a significant portion of the freight tonnage hauled. Government regulation has impacted and will continue to impact trucking operations and efficiency and the specifications of equipment. The following table shows retail deliveries in the combined United States and Canadian markets for the five years ended October 31, 1994, in thousands of units.

4 The truck market in the United States and Canada is highly competitive. Major domestic competitors include PACCAR, Ford and General Motors, as well as foreign-controlled manufacturers, such as Freightliner, Mack and Volvo GM. In addition, manufacturers from Japan (Hino, Isuzu, Nissan and Mitsubishi) are competing in the United States and Canadian markets. The intensity of this competitiveness, which is expected to continue, results in price discounting and margin pressures throughout the industry. In addition to the influence of price, market position is driven by product quality, engineering, styling and utility and a comprehensive distribution system. TRANSPORTATION MARKET SHARE Transportation delivered 91,600 Class 5 through 8 trucks in the United States and Canada in fiscal 1994, a 15% increase from the 79,800 in 1993. Navistar's combined share of the Class 5 through 8 truck market in 1994 was 27%. Transportation has been the leader in combined market share for Class 5 through 8 trucks, including school bus chassis, in the United States and Canada in each of its last 14 fiscal years. PRODUCTS AND SERVICES The following table illustrates the percentage of Transportation's sales by class of product based on dollar amount: YEARS ENDED OCTOBER 31, -------------------------- PRODUCT CLASS 1994 1993 1992 ------------- ---- ---- ---- Class 5, 6 and 7 medium trucks and school bus chassis ..... 32% 31% 36% Class 8 heavy trucks ......... 42 44 39 Service parts ................ 14 14 15 Engines ...................... 12 11 10 ---- ---- ---- Total ...................... 100% 100% 100% ==== ==== ==== Transportation offers a full line of Class 5 through 8 trucks, with the objective of serving the customer better and more effectively by addressing requirements for increased performance and value. Transportation has made continuing improvements in its Class 8 heavy truck image. In 1994, new products were introduced including integrated sleeper cabs (Pro Sleeper) in four sizes, anti-lock brakes as standard equipment on 9000 series conventionals and cabovers, and changes in the 5000 series of trucks (Paystar) which improve weight distribution. In addition, the new T444E diesel engine was introduced in 1994 as the first fully electronic mid-range diesel engine produced. This engine will further enhance Class 5, 6 and 7 medium truck operating performance and life. Transportation was recognized at the industry's largest trade show of the year by winning the award for the "Most Significant Powered Vehicle" for the 9200 Premium Conventional tractor with the all-new 51" Hi-Rise Pro Sleeper. According to a recent survey conducted by J. D. Power and Associates on 1994 Medium-Duty Truck Customer Satisfaction, Navistar ranked number one in customer satisfaction in product and service for Class 5, 6 and 7 medium conventional trucks for the second consecutive year.

5 For over two decades, Transportation has been the leading supplier of school bus chassis in the United States. Chassis are sold through dealers and national account managers for delivery to the ultimate customers: school districts and contractors. Transportation manufactures chassis for conventional school buses, as well as chassis for use in small capacity buses designed to meet the needs of disabled students. In addition to its traditional chassis business, Transportation has invested in American Transportation Corporation (AmTran), a manufacturer of school bus bodies. Through its relationship with AmTran, Transportation participates in the trend toward the integrated design and manufacture of school buses, which offers the potential for improved production and marketing efficiencies and a reduction in the school bus order cycle. Transportation offers only diesel-powered trucks and buses because of their improved fuel economy, ease of serviceability and greater durability over gasoline-powered vehicles. Transportation's Class 8 heavy trucks generally use diesel engines purchased from outside suppliers however, in 1994, it began offering the new T444E engine for use in its heavy trucks. Class 5, 6 and 7 medium trucks are powered by diesel engines manufactured by Transportation. In 1993, Transportation launched its all new world class series of in-line six cylinder diesel engines for bus and Class 5 through 8 truck models. Transportation is the leading supplier of mid- range diesel engines in the 150-300 horsepower range according to data supplied by a private research firm, Power Systems Research of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Based upon information published by R.L. Polk & Company, diesel-powered Class 5, 6 and 7 medium truck shipments represented 81% of all medium truck shipments for fiscal year 1994 in the United States and Canada. Transportation's truck manufacturing operations in the United States and Canada consist principally of the assembly of components manufactured by its suppliers, although Transportation produces its own mid-range diesel truck engines, sheet metal components (including cabs) and miscellaneous other parts. The following is a summary of Transportation's truck manufacturing capacity utilization for the five years ended October 31, 1994. YEARS ENDED OCTOBER 31, ----------------------- 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990 ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ Production units ............ 94,993 88,274 73,901 70,502 80,737 Total production capacity ... 112,966 106,032 106,088 106,762 114,402 Capacity utilization ........ 84.1% 83.3% 69.7% 66.0% 70.6% Total production capacity varies as a result of changes in the number of days of production during a year as well as changes in production constraints. ENGINE & FOUNDRY Transportation builds diesel engines for use in its Class 5, 6 and 7 medium trucks, school buses, selected Class 8 heavy truck models and for sale to original equipment manufacturers. Production in 1994 totalled 192,400 units, an increase of 9.7% from the 175,500 units produced in 1993.

6 Transportation has completed a major capital investment in its engine products and facilities to manufacture a new generation of mid-range diesel engines in both the in-line six cylinder and V-8 configurations. This new generation of engines is designed to respond to customer demands for engines that have more power, improved fuel economy, longer life, and meet current emission requirements through 1997. The engines are offered in a wider horsepower range than previously offered, which will give Transportation an opportunity to expand the number of applications for its engines and broaden its customer base. Transportation believes that its family of diesel engines, each designed to provide superior performance in customer applications, offers both the lowest cost of ownership and excellent value to its customers. In September 1993, Transportation introduced three new in-line six cylinder engines that replaced its long-standing DT family of engines in International Class 5, 6 and 7 medium trucks. These new engines, the DT 466 [175-230 HP], DT 466 High Torque [195-250 HP] and the International 530 [250-300 HP] offer displacements of 466 and 530 cubic inches. These in-line six cylinder products feature 20 percent longer life as a result of larger main and rod bearings, stronger crankshafts, and gear driven accessories. In 1995, full electronic control of the fuel system will be incorporated into three new six-cylinder engine models, the DT 466E, DT 466E High Torque and International 530E. These electronically controlled engines will offer the customer a flexible array of features such as cruise control, self diagnostics and an engine protection system. Transportation is the first to offer a totally electronic mid-range diesel engine family which meets emissions standards without the use of catalytic converters. With the introduction of the 8.7 Liter 530 and 530E engines, Transportation offers to customers who, in the past have only been able to purchase larger 10 Liter class engines, a lighter-weight, more cost-effective product. In February 1994, Transportation replaced the 7.3 Liter V-8 diesel engine with an entirely new product. The T444E is a 444 cubic inch V-8 engine with an electronically controlled fuel injection system. This new diesel engine offers significant customer advantages, with a 10 to 15 percent improvement in fuel economy, 30 to 40 percent enhancement in durability, and improved power and torque when compared to Transportation's 7.3 Liter V-8 product. The new V-8 also meets current emissions requirements cost-effectively and includes such optional features as electronic cruise control, electronically controlled power take-off and diagnostic capabilities. Based on U.S. registrations published by R.L. Polk & Company, the T444E electronically controlled diesel engine is the leading engine of its class. In addition to its strong contribution to the market position of Transportation's medium trucks, a light truck version, marketed as the 7.3 Liter Direct Injection Diesel, has had significant external sales. Transportation has entered into an agreement to supply this new V-8 product to a major automotive company through the year 2000 for use in all of its diesel-powered light trucks and vans. Sales of this engine to the automotive company currently accounts for approximately 88% of Navistar's 444E sales. Shipments to all original equipment manufacturers totalled a record 130,600 units in 1994, an increase of 11% from the 118,200 units shipped in 1993.

7 The following is a summary of Transportation's engine capacity utilization for the five years ended October 31, 1994. YEARS ENDED OCTOBER 31, ----------------------- 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990 ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- Engine production units ..... 192,446 175,464 148,991 126,103 160,434 Total production capacity ... 188,000 166,260 166,260 166,720 166,720 Capacity utilization ........ 102.4% 105.5% 89.6% 75.6% 96.2% Total production capacity varies as a result of changes in product mix. Transportation is exploring the development of alternative fuel engines, including engines powered by compressed natural gas. Transportation has entered into an agreement with Detroit Diesel Corporation to develop a natural gas engine based on Transportation's new V-8 engine and Detroit Diesel's electronic alternative fuel technology. SERVICE PARTS The service parts business is a significant contributor to Transportation's sales and gross margin and to the maintenance of its Class 5 through 8 truck and engine customer base. In the United States and Canada, Transportation operates seven regional parts distribution centers, which allows it to offer 24-hour availability and same day shipment of the parts most frequently requested by customers. Transportation is undertaking initiatives to increase parts sales outside of the United States and Canada. As customers have explored ways to reduce their costs and improve efficiency, Transportation and its dealers have established programs to help them manage the parts and maintenance aspects of their businesses more efficiently. Transportation also offers a "Fleet Charge" program, which allows participating customers to purchase parts on credit at all of its dealer locations at consistent and competitive prices. In 1994, service parts sales increased as a result of higher net selling prices, export business expansion and growth in dealer and national accounts. MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION United States and Canadian Operations. Transportation's truck products are distributed in virtually all key markets in the United States and Canada through the largest retail organization specializing in medium and heavy trucks. As part of its continuing program to adapt to changing market conditions, Transportation has been assisting dealers to expand their operations to better serve their customer base. Transportation's truck distribution and service network in the United States and Canada was composed of 951, 950 and 952 dealers and retail outlets at October 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Included in these totals were 473, 467 and 460 secondary and associate locations at October 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Retail dealer activity is supported by 5 regional operations in the United States and a general office in Canada. A national account sales group is responsible for 155 major national account customers.

8 Transportation's 10 retail and 4 wholesale used truck centers in the United States and Canada provide sales and trade-in benefits to its dealers and retail customers. International Operations. Transportation exports trucks, components and service parts, both wholesale and retail, to more than 70 countries around the world. In 1994, 5,100 trucks were exported while 5,300 trucks were exported in 1993. Cumulatively, from 1986 through 1994, Transportation was the leading North American exporter of Class 6-8 trucks, according to data provided by the AAMA. In Mexico, Transportation has an agreement with DINA Camiones, S.A. (DINA) to supply product technology, components and technical services for assembly of DINA trucks and buses. In 1994, Transportation exported almost 10,000 engines to DINA, bringing the total engines shipped to approximately 30,000 over the past three years. Transportation also has initiated sales of the in-line six cylinder family of mid-range diesel engines to Perkins Group, Ltd., of Peterborough, England, for worldwide distribution and to Detroit Diesel Corporation, the North American distributor of Perkins. NAVISTAR FINANCIAL CORPORATION Navistar Financial is engaged in the wholesale, retail and to a lesser extent lease financing of new and used trucks sold by Transportation and its dealers in the United States. Navistar Financial also finances wholesale accounts and selected retail accounts receivable of Transportation. Sales of new products (including trailers) of other manufacturers are also financed regardless of whether designed or customarily sold for use with Transportation's truck products. During fiscal 1994 and 1993, Navistar Financial provided wholesale financing for 93% and 90%, respectively, of the new truck units sold by Transportation to its dealers and distributors in the United States. Navistar Financial also provided retail financing in fiscal 1994 for approximately 15% of the new truck units sold by Transportation and its dealers and distributors in the United States, unchanged from fiscal 1993. Navistar Financial's wholly-owned insurance subsidiary, Harco National Insurance Company, provides commercial physical damage and liability insurance coverage to Transportation's dealers and retail customers and to the general public through an independent insurance agency system. IMPORTANT SUPPORTING OPERATIONS Third Party Sales Financing Agreements. In the United States, Transportation has an agreement with Associates Commercial Corporation (Associates) to provide wholesale financing to certain of its truck dealers and retail financing to their customers. During fiscal 1994 and 1993, Associates provided 7% and 10%, respectively, of the wholesale financing utilized by Transportation's dealers and distributors. Navistar International Corporation Canada has an agreement with a subsidiary of General Electric Canadian Holdings Limited to provide financing for Canadian dealers and customers.

The Company entered into collective bargaining agreements with the UAW and CAW in 1993 which expire on October 1, 1995 and October 24, 1996, respectively. PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS Transportation continuously obtains patents on its inventions and thus owns a significant patent portfolio. Additionally, many of the components which Transportation purchases for its products are protected by patents that are owned or controlled by the component manufacturer. Transportation has licenses under third party patents relating to its products and their manufacture, and Transportation grants licenses under its patents. The royalties paid or received under these licenses are not significant. No particular patent or group of patents is considered by Transportation to be essential to its business as a whole. Like all businesses which offer well-known products or services, Transportation's primary trademarks symbolize the Company's goodwill and provide instant identification of its products and services in the marketplace and thus, are an important part of its worldwide sales and marketing efforts. To support these efforts, Transportation maintains, or has pending, registrations of its primary trademarks in those countries in which it does business or expects to do business.

11 RAW MATERIALS AND ENERGY SUPPLIES Transportation purchases raw materials, parts and components from numerous outside suppliers but relies upon some suppliers for a substantial number of components for its truck products. Transportation's purchasing strategies have been designed to improve access to the lowest cost, highest quality sources of raw materials, parts and components, and to reduce inventory carrying requirements. A portion of Transportation's requirements for raw materials and supplies is filled by single source suppliers. The impact of an interruption in supply will vary by commodity. Some parts are generic to the industry while others are of a proprietary design requiring unique tooling which would require time to recreate. However, the Company's exposure to a disruption in production as a result of an interruption of raw materials and supplies is no greater than the industry as a whole. In order to remedy any losses resulting from an interruption in supply, the Company maintains contingent business interruption insurance for storms, fire and water damage. In 1994, as a result of industry-wide growth and demand, several suppliers experienced capacity constraints which created interruptions in the flow of supplies to the Company. IMPACT OF GOVERNMENT REGULATION Truck and engine manufacturers continue to face increasing governmental regulation of their products, especially in the areas of environment and safety. The Company believes its products comply with all applicable environmental and safety regulations. As a diesel engine manufacturer, the Company has incurred significant research and tooling costs to totally redesign its engine product lines to meet United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) and California Air Resources Board (CARB) emission standards effective in the 1994 model year. The Company faces significant additional outlays through 1998 to meet further tightening of these standards. The Company expects that its diesel engines will be able to meet all of these standards in the required time-frame. However, compliance with California's 1998 Ultra- Low-Emission Vehicle (ULEV) standards for medium-size vehicles (which includes vehicles up to 14,000 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating - GVWR) will require the use of alternative fuels. The Company expects to have products available to meet these standards prior to 1998. Emissions regulations in Canada and Mexico are similar, but not identical, to the U.S. federal regulations. Although Canada's regulations impose standards equivalent only to the U.S. standards for the 1990 model year, diesel engine manufacturers, including the Company, have voluntarily signed several memorandums of understanding with the Canadian federal government, agreeing to sell only engines meeting the 1994 U.S. emission standards in model years 1995 to 1997. Mexico has adopted the U.S. heavy diesel engine emission standards as of the 1994 model year but has conditioned compliance on the availability of low-sulfur diesel fuel. The Mexican government is expected to complete the conversion of diesel fuel supplies nationwide to low-sulfur fuel in mid-1995.

12 Truck manufacturers are also subject to various noise standards imposed by federal, state and local regulations. The engine is one of a truck's primary noise sources, and the Company therefore works closely with original equipment manufacturers to develop strategies to reduce engine noise. The Company is also subject to the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act (Safety Act) and Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (Safety Standards) promulgated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The Company believes it is in compliance with the Safety Act and the Safety Standards. Expenditures to comply with various environmental regulations relating to the control of air, water and land pollution at production facilities and to control noise levels and emissions from Transportation's products have not been material except for the Wisconsin Steel and Solar Turbine sites. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES Transportation has 7 manufacturing and assembly plants in the United States and 1 in Canada. All plants are owned by Transportation. The aggregate floor space of these 8 plants is approximately 8 million square feet. Transportation also owns or leases other significant properties in the United States and Canada, including a paint facility, a small component fabrication plant, vehicle and parts distribution centers, sales offices, engineering centers and its headquarters in Chicago. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS --------------------- Beginning in March 1984, Transportation received several enforcement notices from the U.S. EPA, all of which relate to Transportation's painting activities at its Springfield, Ohio assembly and body plants. The notices alleged that these painting activities violated the Federal Clean Air Act because the paint contained volatile organic compounds (VOC) in greater quantities than permitted under applicable Ohio regulations (the VOC Regulations). In an administrative action instituted under Section 120 of the Clean Air Act, begun in September 1984, U.S. EPA sought to recover a noncompliance penalty, measured as the costs allegedly saved by Transportation by not complying with the VOC Regulations at the assembly plant. In a court action instituted under Section 113(b) of the Clean Air Act, the United States filed civil complaints pertaining to the assembly plant (filed on April 30, 1985) and the body plant (filed on November 3, 1986) in the U.S. District Court in the Southern District of Ohio. These complaints asked the judge to impose fines of up to $25,000 per violation of the VOC Regulations per day since December 31, 1982. In November 1994, Transportation and U.S. EPA concluded a settlement of both the administrative action and the court action. The settlement included a payment of $2.7 million by Transportation.

13 OTHER MATTERS ------------- In May 1993, a jury issued a verdict in favor of Vernon Klein Truck & Equipment, Inc. and against Transportation in the amount of $10.8 million in compensatory damages and $15 million in punitive damages. The Company appealed the verdict and in order to do so was required to post a bond collateralized with $30 million in cash. In November 1994, the Court of Appeals of the State of Oklahoma reversed the verdict and entered judgement in favor of Transportation on virtually all aspects of the case. The bond and related collateral will be released when the order of the Court of Appeals is filed. Transportation and the Economic Development Administration (EDA), a division of the U.S. Department of Commerce reached an agreement in the fourth quarter of 1994 in settlement of commercial and environmental disputes related to the Wisconsin Steel property. EDA and Transportation became 90% and 10% beneficiaries, respectively, of a trust which was created after the party that purchased Wisconsin Steel filed for bankruptcy. At the time of bankruptcy, EDA had guaranteed repayment of 90% and Transportation of 10% of loans made to Wisconsin Steel. The settlement provides that EDA transfer its interest in the trust to Transportation, which in turn will assume responsibility for completing the investigation of the environmental condition at the site and for any cleanup work that may be necessary. Transportation has agreed to pay EDA $11 million to settle various commercial issues as well as reimburse them for a portion of environmental response costs spent by EDA. The Department of Justice must approve the final settlement before the interest in the trust, or the property, is transferred to Transportation. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to various other claims arising in the ordinary course of business, and are parties to various legal proceedings which constitute ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries. In the opinion of the Company's management, none of these proceedings or claims are material to the business or the financial condition of the Company.
