PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Cendant Corporation
New York, New York
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet of
Cendant Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of September 30, 2002,
the related consolidated condensed statements of income for the three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated
condensed statements of cash flows for the nine month periods ended September
30, 2002 and 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and of making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the
financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an
opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to such consolidated condensed financial statements for them to be in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet of the
Company as of December 31, 2001, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not
presented herein); and in our report dated February 7, 2002 (April 1, 2002 as to
the subsequent events described in Note 28 and August 12, 2002 as to the effects
of the discontinued operation described in Notes 1 and 5 and as to the pro forma
effect of the non-amortization of goodwill disclosed in Note 1), we expressed an
unqualified opinion (and included explanatory paragraphs with respect to the
modification of the accounting treatment relating to securitization
transactions, the accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities
and the revision of certain revenue recognition policies, as discussed in Note 1
and as to the effects of the discontinued operation as discussed in Notes 1 and
5 to the consolidated financial statements) on those consolidated financial
statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying
consolidated condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2001 is fairly stated,
in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from
which it has been derived.

CENDANT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED, ALL AMOUNTS ARE IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
include the accounts and transactions of Cendant Corporation and its
subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company" or "Cendant").
In management's opinion, the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation
of interim results reported. The results of operations reported for interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the
entire year or any subsequent interim period. In addition, management is
required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported
and related disclosures. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment
and available information. Accordingly, actual results could differ from
those estimates.
On May 22, 2002, the Company sold its car parking facility business,
National Car Parks ("NCP"). In connection with such disposition, the
account balances and activities of NCP have been segregated and reported as
a discontinued operation for all periods presented. In addition, certain
other reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform
to the current period presentation. The Consolidated Condensed Financial
Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K/A filed on December 19, 2002.
REVENUE RECOGNITION FOR REAL ESTATE BROKERAGE BUSINESSES
Real estate commissions earned by the Company's real estate brokerage
businesses, primarily NRT Incorporated ("NRT"), are recorded as revenue on
a gross basis upon the closing of a purchase or sale of a home. The amounts
paid to real estate agents, which approximated $724 million and $1.4
billion during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002,
respectively, are recorded as a component of operating expenses on the
Consolidated Condensed Statement of Income. See Note 3 - Acquisitions for a
detailed discussion of the Company's acquisition of NRT.
RESTRICTED CASH
The Company is required to set aside cash primarily in relation to
agreements entered into by its mortgage, car rental and fleet management
businesses. Restricted cash amounts classified as current assets primarily
relate to (i) accounts held for the capital fund requirements of and
potential claims related to mortgage reinsurance agreements, (ii) fees
collected and held for pending mortgage closings, (iii) insurance claim
payments related to the car rental business and (iv) fees collected and
held for pending real estate transactions. Restricted cash amounts
classified as assets under management and mortgage programs primarily
relate to the collateralization requirements of outstanding debt for the
Company's fleet management and car rental businesses.
CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES
On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," in its
entirety. In connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company has
not amortized any goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets during
2002. Prior to the adoption, all intangible assets were amortized on a
straight-line basis over their estimated periods to be benefited.
Therefore, the results of operations for 2001 reflect the amortization of
goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, while the results of
operations for 2002 do not reflect such amortization (see Note 6 -
Intangible Assets for a pro forma disclosure depicting the Company's
results of operations during 2001 after applying the non-amortization
provisions of SFAS No. 142).
In connection with the implementation of SFAS No. 142, the Company is
required to assess goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for
impairment annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate
impairment may have occurred. The Company reviewed the carrying value of
all its goodwill and other intangible assets by comparing such amounts to
their fair value and determined that the carrying amounts of such assets
did not exceed their respective fair values. Accordingly, the initial
implementation of this standard did not result in a charge and, as such,
did not impact the Company's results of operations during 2002. The Company
will perform its annual impairment test during fourth quarter 2002.
5
CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATE
The value of mortgage servicing rights is based on expected future cash
flows considering, among other factors, estimated future prepayment rates
and interest rates. The Company estimates future prepayment rates based on
current interest rate levels, other economic conditions and market
forecasts, as well as relevant characteristics of the servicing portfolio,
such as loan types, interest rate stratification and recent prepayment
experience. To the extent that fair value is less than carrying value, the
Company would record a provision for the impairment of the mortgage
servicing rights portfolio.
During third quarter 2002, the Company recorded a provision for impairment
of $275 million ($175 million, after tax, or $0.17 per diluted share)
relating to its mortgage servicing rights asset ("MSRs") resulting from
lower interest rates and prepayment rates used in the estimates of future
cash flows. Such changes were the direct result of continued declines in
interest rates on ten-year Treasury notes and 30-year mortgages, which
declined to the lowest level in 41 years. In addition, the Company updated
the third-party model used to estimate prepayment rates to reflect more
current borrower prepayment behavior. The combination of these factors
resulted in increases to the Company's estimated future loan prepayment
rates, which negatively impacted the carrying value of the mortgage
servicing rights asset, hence requiring the provision for the impairment of
the mortgage servicing rights asset.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
As permitted by SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,"
the Company currently measures its stock-based compensation using the
intrinsic value approach under Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion
No. 25. Accordingly, the Company does not recognize compensation expense
upon the issuance of its stock options because the option terms are fixed
and the exercise price equals the market price of the underlying CD common
stock on the grant date. The Company complies with the provision of SFAS
No. 123 by providing pro forma disclosures of net income and related per
share data giving consideration to the fair value method provisions of SFAS
No. 123.
On January 1, 2003, the Company plans to adopt the fair value method of
accounting for stock-based compensation provisions of SFAS No. 123, which
is considered by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") to be
the preferable accounting method for stock-based employee compensation.
Subsequent to adoption of the fair value method provisions of SFAS No. 123,
the Company will expense all future employee stock options (and similar
awards) over the vesting period based on the fair value of the award on the
date of grant. The Company does not expect its results of operations to be
impacted in the current year from this prospective change in accounting
policy based on the current accounting guidance related to this adoption,
which is currently under review by the FASB.
The impact of recording compensation expense at fair value in prior periods
has been included in the pro forma disclosures, as required by SFAS No.
123, provided in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed on
November 4, 2002. Prior period compensation expense is not necessarily
indicative of future compensation expense that would be recorded by the
Company upon its adoption of the fair value method provisions of SFAS No.
123. Future expense may vary based upon factors such as the number of
options granted by the Company and the then-current fair market value of
such options.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
During April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB
Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and
Technical Corrections." Such standard requires any gain or loss on
extinguishments of debt to be presented as a component of continuing
operations (unless specific criteria is met) whereas SFAS No. 4 required
that such gains and losses be classified as an extraordinary item in
determining net income. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 145, the Company expects
to reclassify its extraordinary gains or losses on the extinguishments of
debt to continuing operations. The Company will adopt these provisions on
January 1, 2003.
During June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." Such standard requires costs
associated with exit or disposal activities (including restructurings) to
be recognized when the costs are incurred, rather than at a date of
commitment to an exit or disposal plan. SFAS No. 146 nullifies Emerging
Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for
Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity
(including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." Under SFAS No. 146,
a liability related to an exit or disposal activity is not recognized until
such liability has actually been incurred whereas under EITF Issue No. 94-3
a liability was recognized at
6
the time of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. The provisions of
this standard are effective for disposal activities initiated after
December 31, 2002.
2. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share ("EPS") for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 was
calculated using the two-class method as shares of Move.com common stock
were outstanding during such period. The Company ceased using the two-class
method upon the repurchase of all outstanding Move.com shares on June 30,
2001. Accordingly, the calculations for the three months ended September
30, 2001 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 do not
reflect the application of the two-class method.
Income per common share from continuing operations for CD common stock was
computed as follows:

The Company's zero coupon senior convertible contingent notes issued during
first quarter 2001, which provided for the potential issuance of
approximately 22 million and 49 million shares of CD common stock as of
September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, were not included in the
computation of diluted EPS for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, as the related contingency provisions were
not satisfied during such periods. Additionally, the Company's zero coupon
convertible debentures issued during the second quarter of 2001, which
provide for the potential issuance of 39 million shares of CD common stock
as of September 30, 2002 and 2001, were not included in the computation of
diluted EPS for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001
as the related contingency provisions were not satisfied during such
periods. Further, the Company's 3?% convertible senior debentures issued
during the fourth quarter of 2001, which provide for the potential issuance
of approximately 50 million shares of CD common stock as of September 30,
2002, were not included in the computation of diluted EPS for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2002 as the related contingency provisions
were not satisfied during such periods.

3. ACQUISITIONS
PENDING ACQUISITIONS
BUDGET GROUP, INC. On August 22, 2002, the Company announced that it had
entered into a definitive agreement to acquire substantially all of the
assets of Budget Group, Inc. ("Budget"), a general car and truck rental
company in the United States, for approximately $110 million in cash plus
transaction costs and
8
expenses. As part of the acquisition, the Company will assume certain
contracts and trade payables, as well as refinance approximately $2.6
billion in Budget asset-backed vehicle related debt. The acquisition is
subject to certain conditions, including bankruptcy court and regulatory
approval outside the United States. The acquisition has received clearance
under U.S. antitrust regulations. Subject to the satisfaction of the
closing conditions, the Company currently expects to complete the
acquisition during the fourth quarter of 2002.
CONSUMMATED ACQUISITIONS
The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded on the Company's
Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet as of the respective acquisition dates
based upon their estimated fair values at such dates. The results of
operations of businesses acquired by the Company have been included in the
Company's Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income since their
respective dates of acquisition.
The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the
underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed was allocated to
goodwill. In certain circumstances, the allocations of the excess purchase
price are based upon preliminary estimates and assumptions. Accordingly,
the allocations are subject to revision when the Company receives final
information, including appraisals and other analyses. In addition, for
certain acquisitions, the Company has identified pre-acquisition
contingencies for which it is awaiting information to finalize its
quantification of such contingencies. Accordingly, revisions to the fair
values, which may be significant, will be recorded by the Company as
further adjustments to the purchase price allocations. The Company is also
in the process of integrating the operations of all its acquired businesses
and expects to incur costs relating to such integrations. These costs may
result from integrating operating systems, relocating employees, closing
facilities, reducing duplicative efforts and exiting and consolidating
certain other activities. These costs will be recorded on the Company's
Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets as adjustments to the purchase price
or on the Company's Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income as
expenses, as appropriate.
NRT INCORPORATED. On April 17, 2002, the Company acquired all of the
outstanding common stock of NRT, the largest residential real estate
brokerage firm in the United States, for $230 million (including $3 million
of estimated transaction costs and expenses and $11 million related to the
conversion of NRT employee stock appreciation rights to CD common stock
options). The acquisition consideration was funded through an exchange of
11.5 million shares of CD common stock then-valued at $216 million, which
included approximately 1.5 million shares of CD common stock then-valued at
$30 million in exchange for existing NRT options. As part of the
acquisition, the Company also assumed approximately $320 million of NRT
debt, which was subsequently repaid. Prior to the acquisition, NRT operated
as a joint venture between the Company and Apollo Management, L.P. that
acquired independent real estate brokerages, converted them to one of the
Company's real estate brands and operated them under the brand pursuant to
two 50-year franchise agreements with the Company. Management believes that
NRT as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company will be a more efficient
acquisition vehicle and achieve greater financial and operational
synergies.
The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is summarized as follows:
AMOUNT
Issuance of CD common stock $ 216
Fair value of options issued in exchange for stock appreciation rights 11
Transaction costs and expenses 3
------------
Total purchase price 230

The goodwill, of which $160 million is expected to be deductible for tax
purposes, was assigned to the Company's Real Estate Services segment.
TRENDWEST RESORTS, INC. On April 30, 2002, the Company acquired
approximately 90% of the outstanding common stock of Trendwest Resorts,
Inc. ("Trendwest") for $849 million (including $20 million of estimated
transaction costs and expenses and $25 million related to the conversion of
Trendwest employee stock options into CD common stock options). The
acquisition consideration was funded through a tax-free exchange of 42.6
million shares of CD common stock then-valued at $804 million. As part of
the acquisition, the Company assumed $89 million of Trendwest debt, of
which $78 million was subsequently repaid. The Company purchased the
remaining 10% of the outstanding Trendwest shares through a short form
merger on June 3, 2002 for approximately $87 million, which was funded
through a tax-free exchange of 4.8 million shares of CD common stock
then-valued at $87 million. The minority interest recorded in connection
with Trendwest's results of operations between April 30, 2002 and June 3,
2002 was not material. Trendwest markets, sells and finances vacation
ownership interests. Management believes that this acquisition will provide
the Company with significant geographic diversification and global presence
in the timeshare industry.
The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is summarized as follows:

Issuance of CD common stock $ 891

The goodwill was assigned to the Company's Hospitality segment. The Company
does not expect any of this goodwill to be deductible for tax purposes.
OTHER. During 2002, the Company also completed 22 other acquisitions for
aggregate consideration of approximately $850 million in cash, resulting in
goodwill of $606 million. Such other acquisitions included (i) Arvida
Realty Services, a residential real estate brokerage and mortgage services
firm, for approximately $160 million in cash; (ii) The DeWolfe Companies, a
residential real estate brokerage and mortgage services firm, for
approximately $146 million in cash; (iii) Equivest Finance, Inc., a
timeshare developer, for approximately $98 million in cash; (iv) Novasol
AS, a marketer of privately owned vacation properties, for approximately
$66 million; (v) Sigma, a distribution partner of the Company's Galileo
International, Inc. subsidiary, for approximately $94 million in cash and
(vi) 17 other businesses for approximately $286 million in cash. None of
these acquisitions were significant to the Company's results of operations,
financial position or cash flows. The $606 million of goodwill resulting
from these acquisitions was allocated as follows:
Real Estate Services $ 190
Hospitality 195
Travel Distribution 159

2001 ACQUISITIONS
AVIS GROUP HOLDINGS, INC. In connection with the Company's acquisition of
Avis Group Holdings, Inc. ("Avis") on March 1, 2001, the Company recorded
purchase accounting adjustments for costs associated with exiting
activities. The recognition of such costs and the corresponding utilization
are summarized by category as follows:

The Company closed the Avis Corporate headquarters, relocated Avis
employees, abandoned assets and involuntarily terminated Avis employees in
connection with such relocation. The Company formally communicated the
termination of employment to approximately 550 employees, representing a
wide range of employee groups, and as of September 30, 2002, the Company
had terminated all such employees. The majority of the remaining personnel
related costs are expected to be paid by the end of fourth quarter 2002.
GALILEO INTERNATIONAL, INC. In connection with the Company's acquisition of
Galileo International, Inc. ("Galileo") on October 1, 2001, the Company
recorded purchase accounting adjustments for costs associated with exiting
activities. The recognition of such costs and the corresponding utilization
are summarized by category as follows:

The Company closed the Galileo Corporate headquarters, relocated Galileo
employees, involuntarily terminated Galileo employees, merged numerous
offices in Europe to a single European headquarters, abandoned assets in
connection with such relocation and terminated contractual service
agreements associated with the activities to be exited. The Company
formally communicated the termination of employment to approximately 570
employees, representing a wide range of employee groups, and as of
September 30, 2002, the Company had terminated substantially all such
employees. The majority of these remaining personnel related costs are
expected to be paid by the end of the fourth quarter 2002.
11
Reflected in the September 30, 2002 balance are additional purchase
accounting adjustments recorded by the Company subsequent to December 31,
2001 reflecting the Company's integration plan to streamline Galileo's
worldwide operations. Consistent with the original integration plan and due
to the extent and breadth of these global efforts, the full evaluation of
exiting activities was not completed until third quarter 2002. Such
purchase accounting adjustments primarily relate to severance for
involuntarily terminated employees and lease obligations for closed
facilities. In connection with these additional costs, the Company formally
communicated the termination of employment to approximately 310 additional
employees, representing a wide range of employee groups, substantially all
of which are expected to be terminated during fourth quarter 2002.
Accordingly, substantially all of the remaining personnel related costs for
these employees are expected to be paid by the end of the first quarter of
2003.
PRO FORMA RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net revenues, income from continuing operations, net income and the related
per share data would have been as follows had the acquisitions of NRT and
Trendwest occurred on January 1st of each period presented and the
acquisitions of Avis and Galileo occurred on January 1, 2001:
NINE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30,
2002 2001
------------- --------------
Net revenues $ 11,189 $ 10,482
Income from continuing operations 780 750
Net income 545 767
CD COMMON STOCK PRO FORMA INCOME PER SHARE:
BASIC
Income from continuing operations $ 0.75 $ 0.73
Net income 0.52 0.74
DILUTED
Income from continuing operations $ 0.73 $ 0.70
Net income 0.51 0.71
These pro forma results do not give effect to any synergies expected to
result from the acquisitions of NRT, Trendwest, Avis and Galileo.
Additionally, the amortization of the pendings and listings intangible
asset is reflected in the above pro forma results for each period presented
($217 million in both the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001)
since the acquisitions of NRT and Trendwest were assumed to have occurred
on January 1st of each period. In actuality, due to the short-term
amortization period of the pendings and listings intangible asset, the
amortization of this asset would only impact one of the periods presented.
Accordingly, these pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of what
actually would have occurred if the acquisitions had been consummated on
January 1st of each period, nor are they necessarily indicative of future
consolidated results.
4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
As previously discussed in Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies, on May 22, 2002, the Company sold its car parking facility
business, NCP, a then-wholly-owned subsidiary within its Vehicle Services
segment, for approximately $1.2 billion in cash. The Company recorded an
after-tax loss of approximately $256 million on the sale of this business.
NCP operated off-street commercial parking facilities and managed on-street
parking and related operations on behalf of town and city administration in
England.

5. OTHER CHARGES
ACQUISITION AND INTEGRATION RELATED COSTS. During the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2002, the Company incurred charges of $56 million and
$263 million, respectively, primarily related to the acquisition and
integration of NRT and other real estate brokerage businesses. Such charges
principally consisted of $37 million and $222 million during the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2002, respectively, related to the
amortization of the contractual real estate pendings and listings
intangible assets acquired as part of the acquisitions of NRT and other
real estate brokerage businesses. Such intangible assets are being
amortized over the closing periods of the underlying contracts, which are
typically less than five months from the date of acquisition. Accordingly,
the Company has segregated such amortization to enhance comparability of
its results of operations.
During first quarter 2001, the Company incurred charges of $8 million in
connection with the acquisition and integration of Avis, including
severance costs incurred in connection with the rationalization of
duplicative functions.
LITIGATION SETTLEMENT AND RELATED COSTS. During the three months ended
September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company recorded charges of $7 million and
$9 million, respectively, for litigation settlement and related costs in
connection with investigations relating to the 1998 discovery of accounting
irregularities in the former business units of CUC International, Inc.
("CUC"). During the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the
Company recorded charges of $26 million and $42 million, respectively, for
such costs. Also, during the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the
Company recorded a non-cash credit of $14 million to reflect an adjustment
to the PRIDES class action litigation settlement charge recorded by the
Company in 1998, which partially offsets the $42 million charge recorded.
RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER UNUSUAL CHARGES. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2001, the Company incurred unusual charges totaling $263
million. Such charges primarily consisted of (i) $95 million related to the
funding of an irrevocable contribution to the Real Estate Technology Trust,
an independent trust responsible for providing technology initiatives for
the benefit of certain of the Company's current and future real estate
franchisees, (ii) $85 million related to the funding of Trip Network, Inc.
("Trip Network"), which is contingently repayable to the Company only if
certain financial targets related to Trip Network are achieved, (iii) $77
million related to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and (iv) $7
million related to a charitable contribution of $1.5 million in cash and
stock in a publicly traded company valued at $5.5 million (based upon its
then-current fair value) to the Cendant Charitable Foundation, which the
Company established in September 2000 to serve as a vehicle for making
charitable contributions to worthy charitable causes that are of particular
interest to the Company's customers, franchisees and employees. The $77
million of charges incurred in
13
connection with the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks were recorded by
the Company during third quarter 2001 and primarily resulted from the
rationalization of the Avis fleet and related car rental operations.

Such amortization expense is recorded either as a component of non-program
related depreciation and amortization expense or acquisition and
integration related costs on the Company's Consolidated Condensed
Statements of Income. Based on the Company's amortizable intangible assets
as of September 30, 2002 (excluding mortgage servicing rights), the Company
expects related amortization expense for the remainder of 2002 and the five
succeeding fiscal years to approximate $41 million, $87 million, $83
million, $78 million, $76 million and $63 million, respectively
Had the Company applied the non-amortization provisions of SFAS No. 142 for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001, net income and per

As of September 30, 2002, the MSR portfolio had a weighted average life of
approximately 4.1 years. Based on the Company's mortgage servicing
portfolio as of September 30, 2002, the Company expects related
amortization expense for the remainder of 2002 and the five succeeding
fiscal years to approximate $120 million, $318 million, $242 million,
$209 million, $183 million and $162 million.
The Company uses derivatives to mitigate the prepayment risk associated
with mortgage servicing rights. Such derivatives, which are primarily
designated as fair value hedging instruments, tend to increase in value as
interest rates decline and conversely decline in value as interest rates
increase. The activity in the Company's hedge of mortgage servicing rights
consisted of:

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002, the net impact
of the changes in fair value of hedging activity for mortgage servicing
rights was a net gain of $25 million and $17 million, respectively, which
are included in net revenues within the Consolidated Condensed Statement of
Income.
8. FOURTH QUARTER 2001 RESTRUCTURING
The liability resulting from the Company's restructuring plan committed to
in fourth quarter 2001 as a result of changes in business and consumer
behavior following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks is classified
as a component of accounts payable and other current liabilities.

formally communicated the termination of employment to approximately 3,000
employees, representing a wide range of employee groups, and as of
September 30, 2002, the Company had terminated the majority of these
employees. All other costs were incurred primarily in connection with
facility closures and lease obligations resulting from the consolidation of
business operations. These initiatives were substantially completed as of
September 30, 2002.

established for the benefit of the plaintiffs in this lawsuit. The Company

debentures on a semi-annual basis and the holders were granted an
additional option to put the debentures to the Company on May 4, 2003.
On May 4, 2002, holders had the right to require the Company to redeem
these debentures. On such date, virtually all holders declined to
exercise this put option and retained their debentures.
(e) The change in the balance at September 30, 2002 reflects the
redemption of $390 million of these notes upon maturity in February
2002 in cash.

As of September 30, 2002, the Company was in compliance with all

facilities.
OTHER SECURITIZATION FACILITIES
During the third quarter of 2002, the Company formed Sierra Receivables
Funding Company LLC, a special purpose entity, in connection with the
establishment of a securitization facility, which replaced certain other
timeshare receivable securitization facilities utilized by the Company's
Fairfield and Trendwest subsidiaries. At September 30, 2002, the maximum
funding capacity through this special purpose entity is $550 million and
the available capacity is $173 million. At September 30, 2002, the Company
was servicing $442 million of timeshare receivables transferred to this
special purpose entity. The Company was also servicing $163 million of
Fairfield timeshare receivables and $574 million of Trendwest timeshare
receivables sold to other special purpose entities as of September 30,
2002. During the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the
Company recognized pre-tax gains of approximately $20 million and $5
million, respectively, on the securitization of all timeshare receivables.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company
recognized per-tax gains of approximately $27 million and $7 million,
respectively, on the securitization of all timeshare receivables. Such
amounts are recorded within net revenues on the Company's Consolidated
Condensed Statements of Income.
Additionally, PHH was servicing $581 million of relocation receivables sold
to a special purpose entity. The maximum funding capacity through this
special purpose entity is $600 million. As of September 30, 2002, available
capacity through this special purpose entity was $120 million. Gains
recognized on the securitization of relocation receivables during the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2001 were $1 million. Such amounts are
recorded within net revenues on the Company's Consolidated Condensed
Statement of Income. There were no gains recognized during 2002.
As of September 30, 2002, PHH was also servicing approximately $2.0 billion
of mortgage loans sold to a special purpose entity on a non-recourse basis.
In addition to the mortgage loans sold to the special purpose entity, as of
September 30, 2002, PHH was servicing $108 billion of residential first
mortgage loans. The maximum funding capacity through this special purpose
entity is $3.2 billion and PHH had available capacity of approximately $1.2
billion as of September 30, 2002. In addition to the capacity through the
special purpose entity, PHH has the capacity to securitize approximately
$1.4 billion of mortgage loans under a registration statement. During the
three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company recognized
pre-tax gains of $111 million and $135 million, respectively, on $9.2
billion and $10.1 billion, respectively, of mortgage loans sold into the

respectively, on $25.8 billion and $25.9 billion, respectively, of mortgage
loans sold into the secondary market, substantially all of which were sold
on a non-recourse basis. Such amounts are recorded within net revenues on
the Company's Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income. The sale of
mortgage loans into the secondary market is customary practice in the
mortgage industry.
12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The June 1999 disposition of the Company's fleet businesses was structured
as a tax-free reorganization and, accordingly, no tax provision was
recorded on a majority of the gain. However, pursuant to an interpretive
ruling, the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has taken the position that
similarly structured transactions do not qualify as tax-free
reorganizations under the Internal Revenue Code Section 368(a)(1)(A). If
the transaction is not considered a tax-free reorganization, the resultant
incremental liability could range between $10 million and $170 million
depending upon certain factors, including utilization of tax attributes.
Notwithstanding the IRS interpretive ruling, the Company believes that,
based upon analysis of current tax law, its position would prevail, if
challenged.
The Company continues to be involved in litigation asserting claims
associated with the accounting irregularities discovered in former CUC
business units outside of the principal securities class action litigation.
19
The Company does not believe that it is feasible to predict or determine
the final outcome or resolution of these unresolved proceedings. An adverse
outcome from such unresolved proceedings could be material with respect to
earnings in any given reporting period. However, the Company does not
believe that the impact of such unresolved proceedings should result in a
material liability to us in relation to its consolidated financial position
or liquidity.
The Company is involved in pending litigation in the usual course of
business. In the opinion of management, such other litigation will not have
a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.
13. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company repurchased
$207 million (12.8 million shares) of CD common stock under its common
stock repurchase program. As of September 30, 2002, the Company had
approximately $55 million in remaining availability for repurchases under
this program.

14. STOCK PLANS
During third quarter 2002, the Company's Board of Directors accelerated the
vesting of certain options previously granted with exercise prices greater
than or equal to $15.1875. The Company's senior executive officers were not
eligible for this modification. In connection with such action,
approximately 43 million options, substantially all of which were scheduled
to become exercisable by January 2004, became exercisable as of August 27,
2002. In addition, the post-employment exercise period for the modified
options was reduced from one year to thirty days. However, if the employee
remains employed by the Company through the date on which the option was
originally scheduled to become vested, the post-employment exercise period
will be one year.
20
In accordance with the provisions of the FASB Interpretation No. 44,
"Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation (an
Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25)," there is no charge associated with
this modification since none of the modified options had intrinsic value
because the market price of the underlying CD common stock on August 27,
2002 was less than the exercise price of the modified options.
15. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Management evaluates each segment's performance based upon earnings before
non-program related interest, income taxes, non-program related
depreciation and amortization, minority interest and in 2001 equity in
Homestore.com. Such measure is then adjusted to exclude items that are of a
non-recurring or unusual nature and are not measured in assessing segment
performance ("Adjusted EBITDA"). Management believes such discussions are
the most informative representation of how management evaluates
performance. However, the Company's presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not
be comparable with similar measures used by other companies.

Company was obligated to purchase an additional $243 million of timeshare
interval inventory and land from FFD, approximately $140 million of which

development of a property, the Company issues a letter of credit for up to
20% of its
22
purchase price for such property. Drawing under all such letters of credit

Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet as a component of other non-current
assets. The Company will collect the receivable as commissions are received
by Trilegiant from the third party. The Company evaluates the
collectibility of the note at the end of each reporting period.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH OUR CONSOLIDATED
CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND ACCOMPANYING NOTES THERETO INCLUDED ELSEWHERE
HEREIN. UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED, ALL DOLLAR AMOUNTS ARE IN MILLIONS.
We are one of the foremost providers of travel and real estate services in the
world. Our businesses provide a wide range of consumer and business services and
are intended to complement one another and create cross-marketing opportunities
both within and among our following five business segments. Our Real Estate
Services segment franchises our three real estate brands, operates real estate
brokerage offices, provides home buyers with mortgages and facilitates employee
relocations; our Hospitality segment franchises our nine lodging brands,
facilitates the sale and exchange of vacation ownership intervals and markets
vacation rental properties in Europe; our Travel Distribution segment provides
global distribution and computer reservation and travel agency services; our
Vehicle Services segment operates and franchises the Avis car rental brand and
provides fleet management and fuel card services; and our Financial Services
segment provides financial institution enhancement products, insurance-based and
loyalty solutions, operates and franchises tax preparation services and provides
a variety of membership programs through an outsourcing arrangement with
Trilegiant Corporation.
We seek organic growth augmented by, on a selected basis, the acquisition and
integration of complementary businesses and routinely review and evaluate our
portfolio of existing businesses to determine if they continue to meet our
current objectives. From time to time, we engage in preliminary discussions
concerning possible acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures and/or related
corporate transactions.
On August 22, 2002, we announced that we had entered into a definitive agreement
to acquire substantially all of the assets of Budget Group, Inc., the third
largest general car and truck rental company in the United States, for
approximately $110 million in cash plus transaction costs and expenses. As part
of the acquisition, we will assume certain contracts and trade payables, as well
as refinance approximately $2.6 billion in Budget asset-backed vehicle related
debt. We plan on funding the purchase price through available cash and are
currently negotiating an asset-backed facility to finance the vehicle related
debt that we are refinancing and expect to close such facility prior to
consummating the acquisition. The acquisition is subject to certain conditions,
including bankruptcy court and regulatory approval outside the United States,
but has received clearance under U.S. antitrust regulations. Subject to the
satisfaction of the closing conditions, we currently expect to complete this
acquisition during the fourth quarter of 2002.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, we completed a number of
transactions, as discussed below.
ACQUISITIONS
On April 17, 2002, we acquired all of the outstanding common stock of NRT, the
largest residential real estate brokerage firm in the United States, for $230
million, including $3 million of estimated transaction costs and expenses and
$11 million related to the conversion of NRT employee stock appreciation rights
to CD common stock options. The acquisition consideration was funded through an
exchange of 11.5 million shares of CD common stock then-valued at $216 million,
which included approximately 1.5 million shares of CD common stock then-valued
at $30 million in exchange for existing NRT options. As part of the acquisition,
we also assumed approximately $320 million of NRT debt, which was subsequently
repaid. Prior to the acquisition, NRT operated as a joint venture between us and
Apollo Management, L.P. that acquired independent real estate brokerages,
converted them to one of the Company's real estate brands and operated under the
brand pursuant to two 50-year franchise agreements with the Company. Management
believes that NRT as a wholly-owned subsidiary will be a more efficient
acquisition vehicle and achieve greater financial and operational synergies. NRT
is part of the Real Estate Services segment.
On April 30, 2002, we acquired approximately 90% of the outstanding common stock
of Trendwest Resorts, Inc. for $849 million, including $20 million of estimated
transaction costs and expenses and $25 million related to the conversion of
Trendwest employee stock options into CD common stock options. The acquisition
consideration was funded through a tax-free exchange of approximately 42.6
million shares of CD common stock then-valued at $804 million. As part of the
acquisition, we assumed $89 million of Trendwest debt, of which $78 million was
subsequently repaid. We purchased the remaining 10% of the outstanding Trendwest
shares through a short form merger on June 3, 2002 for approximately $87
million, which was funded through a tax-free exchange of approximately 4.8
million shares of CD common stock then-valued at $87 million. Trendwest markets,
sells and finances vacation ownership interests and is now part of our
Hospitality segment. Management believes that this acquisition will provide us
with significant geographic diversification and global presence in the timeshare
industry. Trendwest is part of the Hospitality segment.
25
During 2002, we also completed 22 other acquisitions for aggregate consideration
of approximately $850 million in cash. Such other acquisitions included (i)
Arvida Realty Services, a residential real estate brokerage and mortgage
services firm, for approximately $160 million in cash; (ii) The DeWolfe
Companies, a residential real estate brokerage and mortgage services firm, for
approximately $146 million in cash; (iii) Equivest Finance, Inc., a timeshare
developer, for approximately $98 million; (iv) Novasol AS, a marketer of
privately owned vacation properties, for approximately $66 million; (v) Sigma, a
distribution partner of our Galileo International, Inc. subsidiary, for
approximately $94 million in cash and (vi) 17 other businesses primarily within
our Hospitality segment. None of these acquisitions were significant to our
results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of net
assets acquired and resultant goodwill recognized in connection with the above
acquisitions:

Trendwest 1,149 213 936 684
Other 1,395 545 850 606
DISPOSITION
On May 22, 2002, we sold our car parking facility business, NCP, a wholly-owned
subsidiary within our Vehicle Services segment, for approximately $1.2 billion
in cash. We recorded an after-tax loss of $256 million on the sale of this
business principally related to foreign currency translation, as the U.S. dollar
strengthened significantly against the U.K. pound since Cendant's acquisition of
NCP in 1998. NCP operated off-street commercial parking facilities and managed
on-street parking and related operations on behalf of town and city
administration in England. NCP's results of operations are classified as a
discontinued operation for all periods presented.
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 VS. THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001
RESULTS OF CONSOLIDATED OPERATIONS
Our consolidated results from continuing operations comprised the following:
2002 2001 CHANGE
---------- ---------- -----------
Net revenues $ 3,839 $ 2,389 $ 1,450

Losses related to equity in Homestore.com, net of tax - 20 (20)
---------- ---------- -----------
Income from continuing operations $ 253 $ 186 $ 67
========== ========== ===========
Net revenues increased approximately $1.5 billion (61%) during third quarter
2002 principally due to the acquisitions of NRT and Trendwest in April 2002, as
well as Galileo in October 2001. NRT contributed revenues of approximately $1.1
billion, while Galileo and Trendwest contributed revenues of $395 million and
$142 million, respectively. Such contributions were partially offset by a $275
million (pre-tax) non-cash provision for impairment of our mortgage servicing
rights asset ("MSRs"), which is the capitalized value of expected future
servicing earnings (see "Results of Reportable Segments - Real Estate Services"
for a detailed discussion of this provision). A detailed discussion of revenue
trends is included in "Results of Reportable Segments."
Total expenses increased approximately $1.4 billion (66%), primarily as a result
of the aforementioned acquired businesses (NRT contributing $1.1 billion,
Galileo contributing $285 million and Trendwest contributing $116 million).
Partially offsetting the increase in total expenses was a decrease of $23
million in other charges. The other charges recorded during third quarter 2002
primarily related to $45 million of non-cash amortization of the pendings and
listings intangible asset substantially resulting from our acquisition of NRT,
as well as $11 million of other
26
acquisition and integration-related costs also substantially resulting from our
acquisition of NRT. The charges recorded during third quarter 2001 primarily
related to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks ($77 million) and
substantially resulted from a rationalization of the Avis fleet in response to
anticipated reductions in the volume of business (reflecting charges related to
the reduction in the fleet, representing the difference between the carrying
amount of the vehicles and the fair value of the vehicles less costs to sell, as
well as corresponding personnel reductions).
Our overall effective tax rate was 32% for the third quarter 2002 and 2001. The
rate remained constant despite the elimination of goodwill amortization since
such benefit was substantially offset by the increase in tax expense associated
with the loss of foreign tax credits.
As a result of the above-mentioned items, income from continuing operations
increased $67 million, or 36%, in the third quarter 2002.
RESULTS OF REPORTABLE SEGMENTS
The underlying discussions of each segment's operating results focuses on
Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as earnings before non-program related
interest, income taxes, non-program related depreciation and amortization,
minority interest and, in 2001, equity in Homestore.com. Such measure is then
adjusted to exclude items that are of a non-recurring or unusual nature and are
also not measured in assessing segment performance. Our management believes such
discussions are the most informative representation of how management evaluates
performance. However, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable
with similar measures used by other companies.

(e) Excludes $9 million of litigation settlement and related costs.
REAL ESTATE SERVICES
Revenue increased $817 million while Adjusted EBITDA declined $218 million in
third quarter 2002 compared with third quarter 2001.
Principally driving the increase in revenues was the contribution of $1,070
million in revenues from NRT (the operating results of which have been included
in our consolidated results since April 17, 2002). NRT also contributed $81
million to Adjusted EBITDA during third quarter 2002. Prior to our acquisition
of NRT, NRT paid us royalty and marketing fees of $66 million, real estate
referral fees of $12 million and termination fees of $15 million during third
quarter 2001. We also had a preferred stock investment in NRT prior to our
acquisition, which generated dividend income of $6 million during third quarter
2001.
On a comparable basis, including post-acquisition intercompany royalties paid by
NRT, our real estate franchise brands generated incremental royalties of $19
million in third quarter 2002, an increase of 12% over third quarter
27
2001, due to a 7% increase in home sale transactions and an 8% increase in the
average price of homes sold. Royalty increases in the real estate franchise
business are recognized with little or no corresponding increase in expenses due
to the significant operating leverage within our franchise operations. Industry
statistics provided by the National Association of Realtors for the three months
ended September 30, 2002 indicate that the number of single-family homes sold
has increased 1% versus the prior year, while the average price of those homes
sold has grown 8%. Based on such statistics, our transaction volume has
significantly outperformed the industry for third quarter 2002. Through our
continued franchise sales efforts, we have grown our franchised operations and
in conjunction with NRT acquisitions of real estate brokerages, we have
increased market share as our transaction volume has significantly outperformed
the industry. Franchise fees declined quarter-over-quarter substantially due to
a $15 million franchise termination payment received during the third quarter of
2001 in connection with the conversion of certain Century 21 real estate
brokerage offices into Coldwell Banker offices.
Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA in third quarter 2002 were negatively impacted by a
$275 million non-cash provision for impairment of our MSRs. Declines in interest
rates on ten-year Treasury notes and 30-year mortgages during third quarter 2002
of 120 basis points and 80 basis points, respectively, caused an increase in
mortgage loan prepayments. Accordingly, the rise in mortgage loan prepayments
has caused us to reduce the fair market value of our MSR asset. In addition, we
updated the third-party model used to estimate prepayment rates to reflect more
current borrower prepayment behavior. The combination of these factors resulted
in increases to our estimated future loan prepayment rates, which negatively
impacted the carrying value of the mortgage servicing rights asset, hence
requiring the provision for the impairment of the mortgage servicing rights
asset.
Excluding the $275 million non-cash provision for impairment of our MSR asset,
revenues from mortgage-related activities increased $12 million in third quarter
2002 compared with third quarter 2001 as revenue growth from mortgage production
was partially offset by a decline in net revenues from mortgage servicing.
Revenues from mortgage loan production increased $29 million (17%) in third
quarter 2002 compared with the prior year quarter as growth in our outsourced
mortgage origination and broker business more than offset a reduction in
mortgage loans sold in third quarter 2002 (explained below). In third quarter
2002, the growth in our mortgage origination business has shifted more toward
fee-based outsourcing and broker business, as opposed to generating revenues
from packaging and selling mortgage loans to the secondary market ourselves.
Production fee income on outsourced and brokered loans is generated at the time
of closing, whereas originated mortgage loans held for sale generate revenues at
the time of sale (typically 45-60 days after closing). Accordingly, our
production revenue is now driven by more of a mix of mortgage loans closed and
mortgage loans sold (as opposed to just loans sold). Therefore, although the
volume of mortgage loans sold declined $913 million (9%), mortgage loans closed
increased $3.8 billion (34%) to $15.0 billion comprised of a $546 million (6%)
increase in closed loans to be securitized (sold by us) and a $3.2 billion
(170%) increase in closed loans which were outsourced or brokered. Purchase
mortgage closings grew 9% to $8.3 billion, and refinancings increased 83% to
$6.8 billion. Additionally, in connection with our securitized loans we realized
an increase in margin, which is consistent with the mortgage industry operating
at a higher capacity of loan production.
Net revenues from servicing mortgage loans declined $18 million (excluding the
$275 million non-cash provision for impairment of MSRs). Recurring servicing
fees (fees received for servicing existing loans in the portfolio) increased $10
million (11%) primarily due to a 19% quarter-over-quarter increase in the
average servicing portfolio. However, such recurring activity was more than
offset by increased mortgage servicing rights amortization due to the high
levels of refinancings and related loan prepayments, resulting from the lower
interest rate environment. Partially offsetting the revenue increase and further
contributing to the Adjusted EBITDA decrease within this segment was a $13
million revenue reduction from relocation activities as a result of a decline in
relocation-related homesale closings and lower interest rates charged to our
clients. In addition, excluding the acquisition of NRT, operating and
administrative expenses within this segment increased $22 million, primarily due
to the continued high level of mortgage loan production and related servicing
activities.
HOSPITALITY
Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA increased $206 million and $53 million,
respectively, primarily due to the acquisitions of Trendwest and Equivest in
2002. Trendwest (the results of which have been included since April 30, 2002)
and Equivest (the results of which have been included since February 11, 2002)
contributed revenues of $142 million and $32 million, respectively, and Adjusted
EBITDA of $35 million and $8 million, respectively, in third quarter 2002.
Excluding the acquisitions of Trendwest and Equivest, revenue and Adjusted
EBITDA increased $32 million and $10 million, respectively,
quarter-over-quarter. Timeshare subscription and transaction revenues within our
RCI subsidiary increased $9 million (9%) primarily due to a 7% increase in
exchanges, as well as a 5% increase in the average exchange fee. Sales of
timeshare units at our Fairfield subsidiary generated incremental revenues of $6
million in third quarter 2002 primarily as a result of increased tour flow at
resort sites and a higher average price
28
per transaction. In addition, we recognized an incremental $14 million of income
from providing the financing on the related timeshare unit sales. The additional
financing income was generated as a result of a greater margin realized on
contract sales as we benefited from a lower interest rate environment in third
quarter 2002 compared with third quarter 2001. Royalties and marketing fund
revenues within our lodging franchise operations declined $6 million (5%) in
third quarter 2002 compared with third quarter 2001 due to a 4% reduction in the
occupancy levels at our hotel brands.
TRAVEL DISTRIBUTION
Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA increased $408 million and $128 million,
respectively, in third quarter 2002 substantially due to the October 2001
acquisitions of Galileo and Cheap Tickets, Inc. Prior to our acquisitions of
Galileo and Cheap Tickets, the results of this segment only reflected the
operations of Cendant Travel, our travel agent subsidiary. Galileo (the
operating results of which have been included in our consolidated results since
October 1, 2001) contributed revenues and Adjusted EBITDA of $395 million and
$134 million, respectively, in third quarter 2002 while Cheap Tickets (the
operating results of which have been included in our consolidated results since
October 1, 2001) contributed incremental revenues of $10 million with an
Adjusted EBITDA decline of $1 million. During third quarter 2002, Galileo air
travel booking volumes were down 3% compared with third quarter 2001, and the
effective yield per booking held relatively constant for the same periods.
Despite a progressive rebound in travel post the September 11, 2001 terrorist
attacks, our travel related bookings have not yet reached pre-September 11, 2001
levels. Revenues from our travel agency business declined $5 million,
principally due to a reduction in the members of travel clubs to which we
provide travel agency services.
VEHICLE SERVICES
Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA increased $49 million (5%) and $48 million (51%),
respectively, in third quarter 2002 primarily due to increased revenues in our
Avis car rental business, which were partially offset by lower revenues from
vehicle leasing activities. Avis car rental revenues increased $57 million (9%)
primarily due to an 8% increase in time and mileage revenue per rental day,
which was principally supported by an increase in pricing and market share. In
our vehicle leasing business, revenues declined $10 million principally due to
lower interest expense on vehicle funding, which is substantially passed through
to clients and, therefore, results in lower revenues but has minimal Adjusted
EBITDA impact. Such decrease was partially mitigated by an increase in
depreciation on leased vehicles, which is also passed through to clients.
Avis' revenues are substantially derived from car rental agencies at airport
locations. Through July 2002 (the last period for which information is
available), approximately 84% of Avis' revenues were generated from car rental
agencies at airports. Avis increased its airport market share during 2002
posting a 23.4% market share at domestic airports through July 2002 compared to
22.6% over the same period last year and has recognized its largest market share
gains over the last three months of 2002 (ending July 2002). Based on our
accumulation of data thus far, pertaining to periods subsequent to July 2002, we
expect this favorable trend of increased market share to continue through third
quarter 2002, once industry data for third quarter 2002 are complete.
Additionally, through July 2002, Avis' domestic airport revenue only declined
less than 1% compared to a total market decline of 4.4% over the same periods.
FINANCIAL SERVICES
Adjusted EBITDA increased $64 million (110%), in third quarter 2002 compared
with third quarter 2001, despite a $16 million (5%) decline in revenues.
Adjusted EBITDA was favorably impacted by the outsourcing of our individual
membership business in which a net decline of $34 million in membership-related
revenues due to a lower membership base was more than offset by a net reduction
in expenses. Marketing expenses were $11 million favorable in third quarter 2002
compared with third quarter 2001. In addition, membership operating expenses
were approximately $38 million favorable due to cost savings from servicing
fewer members. Also, in connection with the outsourcing of our individual
membership business to Trilegiant, during the third quarter of last year we
incurred $41 million of transaction-related expenses, the absence of which in
the current quarter largely contributed to the Adjusted EBITDA increase
quarter-over-quarter.
Jackson Hewitt, the franchiser and operator of tax preparation offices,
generated incremental revenues of $23 million in third quarter 2002 over third
quarter 2001 principally as a result of a financial product. The Jackson Hewitt
franchise and tax preparation business is seasonal, whereby generally most of
the annual revenues and Adjusted EBITDA is generated during the first quarter of
the year.
29
Our domestic insurance wholesale businesses generated $14 million less revenue
in third quarter 2002 compared with the prior year quarter, principally due to a
lower profit share from insurance companies as a result of higher than expected
claims. This was substantially offset by organic growth within our international
insurance wholesale operations.
CORPORATE AND OTHER
Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA declined $14 million and $9 million, respectively,
in third quarter 2002 compared with third quarter 2001. The revenue decline
principally reflects incremental intercompany revenue eliminations due to
increased intercompany business activities, principally resulting from
acquisitions. Adjusted EBITDA reflects higher unallocated corporate overhead
costs due to increased administrative expenses.

========== ========== ===========
Net revenues increased approximately $4.1 billion (67%) during the nine months
ended September 30, 2002 principally due to the acquisitions of NRT in April
2002, Galileo in October 2001 and Avis Group Holdings in March 2001, as well as
Trendwest in April 2002 and Fairfield Resorts, Inc. in April 2001. NRT, Galileo
and Avis contributed revenue growth of $2.0 billion, $1.2 billion and $605
million, respectively, while Trendwest and Fairfield contributed revenue growth
of $235 million and $138 million, respectively. Such growth was partially offset
by a $275 million (pre-tax) non-cash provision for impairment of the carrying
value of our mortgage servicing rights, which is the capitalized value of
expected future servicing earnings (see "Results of Reportable Segments - Real
Estate Services" for a detailed discussion of this provision). A detailed
discussion of revenue trends is included in "Results of Reportable Segments."
Total expenses increased approximately $3.6 billion (66%), primarily as a result
of the acquired businesses (NRT contributing $2.1 billion, Galileo contributing
$858 million, Avis contributing $446 million, Trendwest contributing $201
million and Fairfield contributing $123 million).
The other charges recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2002
primarily related to $239 million of non-cash amortization of the pendings and
listings intangible asset substantially resulting from our acquisition of NRT,
as well as $24 million of other acquisition and integration-related costs also
substantially resulting from our acquisition of NRT. The charges recorded during
the nine months ended September 30, 2001 primarily related to (i) the funding of
an irrevocable contribution to the Real Estate Technology Trust ($95 million),
(ii) the creation of Trip Network, Inc. ($85 million) and (iii) the September
11, 2001 terrorist attacks ($77 million), which substantially resulted from a
rationalization of the Avis fleet in response to anticipated reductions in the
volume of business (reflecting charges related to the reduction in the fleet,
representing the difference between the carrying amount of the vehicles and the
fair value of the vehicles less costs to sell, as well as corresponding
personnel reductions). Also during the nine months ended September 30, 2001, we
sold our real estate Internet portal, move.com, along with certain ancillary
businesses, to Homestore.com in exchange for approximately 21 million shares of
Homestore.com common stock then valued at $718 million. We recognized a gain of
$436 million ($262 million, after tax) on the
30
sale of these businesses at the time of closing. Such gain was substantially
offset during fourth quarter 2001 by a loss of $407 million resulting from an
other-than-temporary decline in the value of our investment in Homestore.
Our overall effective tax rate was 33% and 36% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The effective tax rate for the nine
months ended September 30, 2002 was lower primarily due to the elimination of
goodwill amortization and the absence of higher state taxes on the gain on the
disposition of our Internet real estate portal.
As a result of the above-mentioned items, income from continuing operations
increased $167 million, or 25%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2002.

attacks, which primarily resulted from the rationalization of the Avis
fleet and related car rental operations ($6 million, $60 million and $11
million within Hospitality, Vehicle Services and Corporate and Other,
respectively).
(e) Excludes a charge of $95 million related to the funding of an irrevocable
contribution to the Real Estate Technology Trust.
(f) Excludes a charge of $4 million related to the acquisition and integration
of Avis.
(g) Excludes (i) a net gain of $435 million primarily related to the sale of
our real estate Internet Portal, move.com, and (ii) a credit of $14 million
to reflect an adjustment to the settlement charge recorded in the fourth
quarter of 1998 for the PRIDES class action litigation. Such amounts were
partially offset by charges of (i) $85 million incurred in connection with
the creation of Trip Network, Inc., (ii) $42 million for litigation
settlement and related charges, (iii) $7 million related to a contribution
to the Cendant Charitable Foundation and (iv) $4 million related to the
acquisition and integration of Avis.
REAL ESTATE SERVICES
Revenues increased $1.85 billion while Adjusted EBITDA declined $76 million in
nine months 2002 compared with nine months 2001.
Principally driving the increase in revenues was the contribution of $2,030
million in revenues from NRT (the operating results of which have been included
in our consolidated results since April 17, 2002). NRT also contributed $170
million to Adjusted EBITDA during 2002. Prior to our acquisition of NRT, NRT
paid us royalty and marketing fees of $168 million, real estate referral fees of
$28 million and termination fees of $16 million during the nine months ended
September 30, 2001. For the period January 1, 2002 through April 17, 2002, NRT
paid us royalty and marketing fees of $66 million, real estate referral fees of
$9 million and a termination fee of $16 million. We also had a preferred stock
investment in NRT prior to our acquisition, which generated dividend income of
$10 million and $18 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and
2001, respectively.
On a comparable basis, including post-acquisition intercompany royalties paid by
NRT, our real estate franchise brands generated incremental royalties of $69
million in nine months 2002, an increase of 18% over nine months 2001. The
increase in royalties from our real estate franchise brands primarily resulted
from a 9% increase in home sale transactions by franchisees and NRT, and a 9%
increase in the average price of homes sold. Royalty increases in the real
estate franchise business are recognized with little or no corresponding
increase in expenses due to the significant operating leverage within our
franchise operations. Industry statistics provided by the National
31
Association of Realtors for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 indicate
that the number of single-family homes sold has increased 4% versus the prior
year, while the average price of those homes sold has increased approximately
9%. Through our continued franchise sales efforts, we have grown our franchised
operations and in conjunction with NRT acquisitions of real estate brokerages,
we have increased market share as our transaction volume has significantly
outperformed the industry. Real estate franchise fee termination payments of $16
million and $16 million were received from NRT (prior to our acquisition of NRT)
in nine months 2002 and nine months 2001, respectively, primarily in connection
with the conversion of certain ERA and Century 21 real estate brokerage offices
into Coldwell Banker offices.
Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA in nine months 2002 were negatively impacted by a
$275 million non-cash provision for impairment of the carrying value of our
mortgage servicing rights asset, which is the capitalized value of expected
future servicing fees (see "Three Months Ended September 30, 2002 vs. Three
Months Ended September 30, 2001 - Real Estate Services" discussion above).
Excluding the $275 million non-cash provision for impairment of MSRs, revenues
from mortgage-related activities increased $46 million in nine months 2002
compared with nine months 2001 as revenue growth from mortgage production was
partially offset by a decline in net revenues from mortgage servicing. Revenues
from mortgage loan production increased $147 million (34%) in nine months 2002
compared with the prior year period due to substantial growth in our outsourced
mortgage origination and broker business (explained below). Loans sold volume in
nine months 2002 remained relatively constant compared with nine months 2001. In
nine months 2002, the growth in our mortgage origination business has shifted
more toward fee-based outsourcing and broker business, as opposed to generating
revenues from packaging and selling mortgage loans to the secondary market
ourselves. Production fee income on outsourced and brokered loans is generated
at the time of closing, whereas originated mortgage loans held for sale generate
revenues at the time of sale (typically 45-60 days after closing). Accordingly,
our production revenue is now driven by more of a mix of mortgage loans closed
and mortgage loans sold (as opposed to just loans sold). Therefore, although the
volume of mortgage loans sold was constant year-over-year, mortgage loans closed
increased $9.4 billion (31%) to $40.1 billion comprised of a $11.1 billion
(three fold) increase in closed loans which were outsourced or brokered,
partially offset by a $1.7 billion (6%) reduction in closed loans to be
securitized (sold by us). Purchase mortgage closings grew 12% to $21.8 billion,
and refinancings increased 63% to $18.3 billion. Additionally, in connection
with our securitized loans we realized an increase in margin which is consistent
with the mortgage industry operating at a higher capacity of loan production.
Net revenues from servicing mortgage loans declined $101 million, excluding the
$275 million non-cash writedown of MSRs. However, recurring servicing fees (fees
received for servicing existing loans in the portfolio) increased $45 million
(18%) primarily due to a 20% year-over-year increase in the average servicing
portfolio. Such recurring activity was more than offset by increased mortgage
servicing rights amortization due to the high levels of refinancings and related
loan prepayments, resulting from the lower interest rate environment. In
addition, segment results were negatively impacted by a $38 million revenue
reduction from relocation activities as a result of a decline in
relocation-related homesale closings and lower interest rates charged to our
clients. Excluding the acquisition of NRT, operating and administrative expenses
within this segment increased $45 million, primarily due to the continued high
levels of mortgage loan production and related servicing activities.
HOSPITALITY
Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA increased $488 million and $81 million,
respectively, primarily due to the acquisitions of Fairfield Resorts in April
2001, Trendwest in April 2002 and Equivest in February 2002 and certain other
vacation rental companies abroad in 2002 and 2001. Fairfield (for the first
quarter of 2002 - the period in which no comparable results were included in
2001), Trendwest, Equivest and the acquired vacation rental companies,
contributed incremental revenues of $138 million, $235 million, $83 million, and
$24 million, respectively and Adjusted EBITDA of $18 million, $54 million, $21
million and $2 million, respectively, in nine months 2002 compared with the
prior year period. Excluding the impact from these acquisitions, revenues
increased $8 million while Adjusted EBITDA declined $14 million year-over-year.
Organic growth within our Vacation Rental Group contributed incremental revenues
of $14 million in nine months 2002, due to an increase in vacation weeks sold,
primarily attributable to improved direct marketing efforts. Timeshare
subscription and transaction revenues increased $27 million (9%), primarily due
to increases in exchange transactions and the average exchange fee. During nine
months 2002, we recognized an incremental $20 million of income from providing
the financing on timeshare unit sales at our Fairfield subsidiary. The
additional financing income was generated as a result of a greater margin
realized on contract sales as we benefited from a lower interest rate
environment in nine months 2002 compared with the prior year period. Results
within our lodging franchise operation continued to be suppressed subsequent to
the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and their impact on the travel
industry. Accordingly, royalties and marketing fund revenues within our lodging
franchise operations were down $20 million (6%) in nine
32
months 2002 compared with nine months 2001. However, comparable year-over-year
occupancy levels in our franchised lodging brands have shown improvement during
the nine months ended September 30, 2002. In addition, Preferred Alliance
revenues and Adjusted EBITDA declined $13 million in nine months 2002 compared
with nine months 2001, primarily from contract expirations and a contract
termination payment received in the prior year. Excluding acquisitions,
operating and administrative expenses within this segment increased
approximately $23 million in nine months 2002, principally to support continued
volume-related growth in our timeshare exchange business.
TRAVEL DISTRIBUTION
Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.24 billion and $399 million,
respectively, in nine months 2002 compared with nine months 2001, due to the
October 2001 acquisitions of Galileo and Cheap Tickets. Galileo contributed
revenues and Adjusted EBITDA of $1.21 billion and $414 million, respectively, in
nine months 2002 while Cheap Tickets contributed incremental revenues of $36
million with an Adjusted EBITDA decline of $7 million. During nine months 2002,
air travel booking volumes were down 10% compared with nine months 2001, as the
September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks caused a significant reduction in the
demand for travel-related services. Accordingly, despite a progressive rebound
in travel post September 11, our travel-related booking volumes have not yet
reached pre-September 11 levels. Partially offsetting the impact of lower
booking volumes was a higher effective yield per booking, resulting in an 8%
reduction in air booking fee revenues versus the comparable nine month period.
Beginning in fourth quarter 2002, all quarterly periods will be comparable in
terms of being subsequent to the September 2001 terrorist attacks. Revenues from
our travel agency business declined $13 million principally due to a reduction
in the members of travel-related clubs which are serviced by us.
VEHICLE SERVICES
Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA increased $605 million (25%) and $60 million (22%),
respectively, in nine months 2002 versus the comparable prior year period. We
acquired Avis Group Holdings (comprised of the Avis rental car business and
fleet management operations) on March 1, 2001. Prior to the acquisition of Avis,
revenues and Adjusted EBITDA of this segment consisted of franchise royalties
received from Avis and earnings (losses) from our equity investment in Avis.
Avis' operating results were included from the acquisition date forward and
therefore included only seven months of results in 2001 (March through
September). Accordingly, the Avis acquisition for January and February of 2002
(the period for which no comparable results were included in 2001) contributed
incremental revenues and Adjusted EBITDA of $562 million and $5 million,
respectively. On a comparable basis, post acquisition (seven months ended
September 30, 2002 versus the comparable prior year period), revenues and
Adjusted EBITDA increased $43 million and $55 million, respectively. Increased
revenues in our Avis car rental business were offset by lower revenues from
vehicle leasing activities. For the seven months ended September 30, 2002, Avis
car rental revenues increased $82 million (5%), primarily due to a 6% increase
in time and mileage revenue per rental day. This was principally supported by an
increase in pricing, the impact of which substantially flows directly to
Adjusted EBITDA, and increased market share. In our vehicle leasing business,
over the same periods, revenues declined $33 million principally due to lower
interest expense on vehicle funding, which is substantially passed through to
clients and therefore results in lower revenues but has minimal Adjusted EBITDA
impact. This was partially offset by an increase in depreciation on leased
vehicles which is also passed through to clients. Avis has increased its airport
market share during 2002 (See "Three Months Ended June 30, 2002 vs. Three Months
Ended June 30, 2001 - Vehicle Services" for market share statistics through July
2002, the last period for which information is available).
FINANCIAL SERVICES
Adjusted EBITDA increased $115 million (44%) in nine months 2002 compared with
nine months 2001, despite a $8 million (1%) decline in revenue. Adjusted EBITDA
was favorably impacted by the outsourcing of our individual membership business
(see "Trilegiant Transaction," below), in which a net decline of $72 million in
membership-related revenues due to a lower membership base was more than offset
by a net reduction in expenses. Marketing expenses were $70 million favorable in
third quarter 2002 compared with third quarter 2001 substantially due to the
absence of new member marketing costs in nine months 2002. In addition,
membership operating expenses were approximately $58 million favorable due to
cost savings from servicing fewer members. In connection with the Trilegiant
Transaction, during the third quarter of last year, we incurred $41 million of
transaction-related expenses, the absence of which in the current quarter
contributed to the increase in Adjusted EBITDA.
Jackson Hewitt generated incremental revenues of $78 million in nine months
2002. In January 2002, we acquired our largest tax preparation franchisee, Tax
Services of America. TSA contributed incremental revenues of $42 million and
Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $9 million to Jackson Hewitt's nine month
results. Jackson Hewitt also generated incremental revenues of $31 million in
nine months 2002 from various financial products. Additionally, on a comparable
basis, including post acquisition intercompany royalties paid by TSA, Jackson
Hewitt
33
franchise royalties increased $13 million (29%). The increase in Jackson Hewitt
royalties was driven by a 14% increase in tax return volume, and a 14% increase
in the average price per return. Additional operating and overhead costs were
incurred in nine months 2002 due to an expansion of Jackson Hewitt's
infrastructure to support increased business activity and a reorganization and
relocation of the Jackson Hewitt technology group.
Our domestic insurance wholesale businesses generated $14 million less revenue
in nine months 2002 compared with nine months 2001 from a lower profit share
from insurance companies as a result of higher than expected claims. This was
substantially offset by organic growth within our international insurance
wholesale operations.
CORPORATE AND OTHER
Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA decreased $59 million and $26 million, respectively,
in nine months 2002 compared with nine months 2001. In February 2001, we sold
our real estate Internet portal and certain ancillary businesses, which
collectively accounted for a quarter-over-quarter decline in revenues of $14
million and an improvement in Adjusted EBITDA of $8 million. In addition,
revenues recognized from providing electronic reservation processing services to
Avis prior to the acquisition of Avis resulted in a $14 million revenue decrease
with no Adjusted EBITDA impact as Avis paid royalties but was billed for
reservation services at cost. Revenues also included incremental inter-segment
revenue eliminations in nine months 2002 due to increased intercompany business
activities, principally resulting from acquisitions. Adjusted EBITDA also
includes higher unallocated corporate overhead costs due to increased
administrative expenses and infrastructure expansion to support company growth.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As we provide a wide range of consumer and business services, we are active in
many types of industries. The majority of our businesses operate in environments
where we are paid a fee for services provided. Within our car rental, vehicle
management, relocation, mortgage services and timeshare development businesses,
we purchase assets, or finance the purchase of assets, on behalf of our clients.
We seek to manage the interest rate exposures inherent in these assets by
matching them with financial liabilities that have similar terms and interest
rate characteristics. We classify these activities as assets under management
and mortgage programs and liabilities under management and mortgage programs.
Such activities are conducted and managed by legally separate finance and/or
mortgage companies. Accordingly, the financial results of our finance activities
vary from the rest of our businesses based upon the impact of the relative
business and financial risks and asset attributes, as well as the nature and
timing associated with the respective cash flows. We believe that it is
appropriate to segregate our assets under management and mortgage programs and
our liabilities under management and mortgage programs separately from the
assets and liabilities of the rest of our businesses because, ultimately, the
source of repayment of such liabilities is the realization of such assets.

Mandatorily redeemable preferred interest 375 375 -
Stockholders' equity 9,137 7,068 2,069
Total assets exclusive of assets under management and mortgage programs
decreased primarily due to (i) the application of $1.66 billion of prior
payments made to the stockholder litigation settlement trust to extinguish a
portion of our stockholder litigation settlement liability, (ii) the sale of
$1.3 billion of NCP assets and (iii) a $1.7 billion reduction in cash (see
"Liquidity and Capital Resources" below for a detailed discussion of such
reduction). Such decreases were partially offset by (i) a $2.1 billion net
increase in goodwill and franchise agreements resulting primarily from the
acquisitions of NRT and Trendwest and (ii) the acquisition of a trademark valued
at approximately $200 million related to our venture with Marriott.
34
Assets under management and mortgage programs increased primarily due to (i) an
increase of $520 million in vehicles used in our Avis business in order to meet
seasonal demand, (ii) an increase of $471 million in timeshare receivables
primarily resulting from the acquisitions of Trendwest and Equivest and (iii) an
increase of $115 million in mortgage loans held for sale primarily due to timing
differences arising between the origination and sales of such loans. Such
increases were partially offset by the reduction of $219 million to our mortgage
servicing rights asset (including the related hedge) due to valuation
adjustments and related amortization, net of additions.
Total liabilities exclusive of liabilities under management and mortgage
programs decreased primarily due to (i) the $2.85 billion payment of our
stockholder litigation settlement liability as described below, (ii) the
repurchase of $517 million of our zero coupon senior convertible contingent
notes, (iii) the $390 million repayment of our 3% convertible notes and (iv) the
repurchase of $108 million of our 7 3/4% notes. On March 18, 2002, the Supreme
Court denied all final petitions relating to our principAL securities class
action lawsuit. As of December 31, 2001, we had deposited cash totaling $1.41
billion to a trust established for the benefit of the plaintiffs in this
lawsuit. In March 2002, we made an additional payment of $250 million to the
trust. We completely funded all remaining obligations arising out of the
principal securities class action lawsuit on May 24, 2002 with a final payment
of approximately $1.2 billion to the trust. As of September 30, 2002, we had no
remaining obligations relating to the principal securities class action lawsuit.
Liabilities under management and mortgage programs increased primarily due to
(i) the issuance during 2002 of $732 million of unsecured term notes and $211
million of commercial paper, (ii) a net issuance of $134 million in secured term
notes and Preferred Membership Interests under the Chesapeake Funding program
during 2002, (iii) a net increase of $465 million in secured term notes under
the AESOP Funding program, (iv) an increase of $91 million in secured short-term
borrowings to fund timeshare receivables related to our acquisition of Equivest
Finance, Inc. in February 2002 and (v) $68 million of borrowings during 2002 to
fund relocation receivables. Such increases were partially offset by (i) the
repayment of $750 million of outstanding borrowings under revolving credit
facilities and (ii) a decrease of $270 million in secured short-term mortgage
borrowings primarily due to lower mortgage warehousing needs.
Stockholders' equity increased primarily due to (i) $834 million of income from
continuing operations generated during the nine months ended September 30, 2002,
(ii) the issuance of $916 million (47.4 million shares) in CD common stock in
connection with the Trendwest acquisition, (iii) the issuance of $216 million
(11.5 million shares) in CD common stock in connection with the acquisition of
NRT, (iv) $99 million relating to the Company's venture with Marriott
International, Inc. and (v) $95 million related to the exercise of employee
stock options. Such increases were partially offset by our repurchase of $207
million (12.8 million shares) in CD common stock.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand, our ability to generate
cash through operations and financing activities, as well as available credit
and securitization facilities.
CASH FLOWS
At September 30, 2002, we had $205 million of cash on hand, a decrease of
approximately $1.7 billion from approximately $1.9 billion at December 31, 2001
reflecting management's efforts to apply our cash balances to reduce outstanding
indebtedness and liabilities.

(a) Includes the application of prior payments made to the stockholder
litigation settlement trust of $1.41 billion, the March 2002 payment of
$250 million to the trust and the May 2002 payment of $1.2 billion to the
trust to fund the remaining balance of the settlement liability.
(b) Includes $1.41 billion of proceeds from the stockholder litigation
settlement trust, which were used to extinguish a portion of the
stockholder litigation settlement liability.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, we generated approximately $1.7
billion less cash from operating activities primarily due to (i) $1.41 billion
of cash payments made in prior periods to the stockholder litigation settlement
trust that were used during first quarter 2002 to extinguish a portion of the
stockholder litigation settlement liability and (ii) $1.44 billion of payments
made in first and second quarters 2002 to pay off the remaining balance of the
stockholder litigation settlement liability. Partially offsetting these uses
were greater operating cash flows generated by our Avis car rental and mortgage
businesses.
Also, during the nine months ended September 30, 2002, we made cash payments of
$29 million and $7 million for personnel related and facility related costs,
respectively, resulting from the restructuring charge we recorded in fourth
quarter 2001 as a result of changes in business and consumer behavior following
the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Such liability approximated $42
million as of September 30, 2002. As of September 30, 2002, the initiatives
committed to by management in this restructuring plan were substantially
completed.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, we used approximately $3.8
billion less cash in investing activities primarily due to (i) the proceeds of
$1.41 billion of prior payments made to the stockholder litigation settlement
trust that were used to extinguish a portion of our stockholder litigation
settlement liability, (ii) the proceeds of $1.2 billion from the sale of NCP and
(iii) a reduction of $902 million in cash used for acquisitions. Partially
offsetting the cash used in investing activities was additional cash used to
acquire vehicles for our car rental and fleet management operations.
Capital expenditures during the nine months ended September 30, 2002 amounted to
$235 million and were utilized to support operational growth, enhance marketing
opportunities and develop operating efficiencies through technological
improvements. We continue to anticipate aggregate capital expenditure
investments during 2002 of approximately $360 million.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, we used approximately $1.2
billion of cash in financing activities as compared to generating approximately
$4.9 billion of cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2001. Reflected
in the cash we used during the nine months ended September 30, 2002 are (i)
repayments of outstanding borrowings of $750 million under revolving credit
facilities, (ii) debt redemptions of $670 million and (iii) stock repurchases of
$207 million. We anticipate using cash on hand and operating cash flow generated
during the year to continue to reduce our outstanding indebtedness and also to
continue to repurchase CD common stock. As of September 30, 2002, we had
approximately $255 million of remaining availability under our board-authorized
CD common stock repurchase programs (including the additional $200 million
approved by our Board of Directors on October 16, 2002).
36
AVAILABLE CREDIT AND SECURITIZATION FACILITIES
At September 30, 2002, we had approximately $5.0 billion of available funding
arrangements and credit facilities (including availability of approximately $2.0
billion at the corporate level and approximately $3.0 billion available for use
in our management and mortgage programs).
As of September 30, 2002, the credit facilities at the corporate level consisted
of:

Under the terms of our $1.25 billion facility, the revolving line was reduced by
$500 million from its previous capacity of $1.75 billion in August 2002.
However, the availability under this facility increased during 2002 primarily as
a result of our paying off the entire stockholder litigation settlement
liability and thereby reducing the letters of credit issued under the facility.

$356 million. Our real estate brokerage business maintains facilities with
a total capacity of $90 million, outstanding borrowings of $82 million and
available capacity of $8 million.
We also sell a significant portion of residential mortgage loans generated in
our mortgage business and receivables generated in our relocation and timeshare
businesses into securitization entities, generally on a non-recourse basis, as
part of our financing strategy. We retain the servicing rights and, in some
instances, subordinated residual interests in the mortgage loans and relocation
and timeshare receivables. The investors generally have no recourse to our other
assets for failure of debtors to pay when due.
During the third quarter of 2002, we formed Sierra Receivables Funding Company
LLC, a special purpose entity, in connection with the establishment of a
securitization facility, which replaced certain other timeshare receivable
securitization facilities utilized by our Fairfield and Trendwest subsidiaries.
At September 30, 2002, the maximum funding capacity through this special purpose
entity is $550 million and the available capacity is $173 million. At September
30, 2002, we were servicing $442 million of timeshare receivables transferred to
this special purpose entity. We were also servicing $163 million of Fairfield
timeshare receivables and $574 million of Trendwest timeshare receivables sold
to other special purpose entities as of September 30, 2002.
Additionally, PHH was servicing $581 million of relocation receivables sold to a
special purpose entity. The maximum funding capacity through the special purpose
entity used to securitize relocation receivables is $600 million and, as of
September 30, 2002, available capacity through this special purpose entity was
$120 million.
PHH was also servicing approximately $2.0 billion of mortgage loans sold to a
special purpose entity as of September 30, 2002. In addition to the mortgage
loans sold to the special purpose entity, as of September 30, 2002,
37
PHH was servicing $108 billion of residential first mortgage loans. The maximum
funding capacity through this special purpose entity is $3.2 billion and, as of
September 30, 2002, we had available capacity of approximately $1.2 billion. In
addition to the capacity through the special purpose entity, PHH has the
capacity to securitize approximately $1.4 billion of mortgage loans under a
subsidiary's registration statement. The sale of mortgage loans into the
secondary market is customary practice in the mortgage industry.
FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS
At September 30, 2002, we had approximately $17.0 billion of indebtedness
(including corporate indebtedness of $6.1 billion, debt related to our
management and mortgage programs of $10.6 billion and our mandatorily redeemable
interest of $375 million). Our net debt (excluding the Upper DECS and debt
related to our management and mortgage programs and net of cash and cash
equivalents) to total capital (including net debt and the Upper DECS) ratio was
35% and 37% as of September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively, and
the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to net non-program related interest expense was 11
to 1 and 9 to 1 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001,
respectively.
Corporate indebtedness, excluding the Upper DECS of $863 million, consisted of:

(*) Represents derivative gains resulting from fair value hedges, of which $56
million had been realized as of September 30, 2002 and will be amortized by
us as an offset to interest expense.
Our corporate indebtedness decreased $923 million primarily due to the (i)
redemption of our 3% convertible subordinated notes for $390 million, (ii)
repurchase of $517 million of our zero coupon senior convertible contingent
notes with a face value of approximately $821 million, (iii) repurchase of $108
million of our 7 3/4% notes and (iv) repurchase of $10 million of our 11% senior
subordinated notes. In connection with the repurchase of our zero coupon, 7 3/4%
and 11% senior subordinated notes, WE recorded extraordinary losses of $43
million ($30 million after tax) during the nine months ended September 30, 2002.
Additionally, during October 2002, we repurchased (i) $18 million of our 11%
senior subordinated notes with a face value of $16 million for $17 million in
cash; (ii) $35 million of our zero coupon convertible debentures with a face
value of $35 million for $34 million in cash and (iii) $76 million of our 7 3/4%
notes with a face value of $76 million for $77 million.
On May 2, 2002, we amended certain terms of our zero coupon convertible
debentures. In connection with these amendments, (i) we will make cash interest
payments of 3% per annum, beginning May 5, 2002 and continuing through May 4,
2003, to the holders of the debentures on a semi-annual basis and (ii) the
holders were granted an additional option to put the debentures to us on May 4,
2003. Holders had the right to require us to redeem their zero coupon
convertible debentures on May 4, 2002. On such date, virtually all holders
declined to exercise this put option and retained their debentures.

Debt related to our management and mortgage programs consisted of:

------- ------- -------
$10,557 $ 9,844 $ 713
======= ======= =======
Our debt related to management and mortgage programs increased $713 million
primarily due to (i) net issuance of $134 million in secured term notes and
preferred membership interests under the Chesapeake Funding program, (ii) a net
increase of $465 million in secured term notes under the AESOP Funding program,
(iii) an increase of $91 million in secured short-term borrowings to fund
timeshare receivables related to our acquisition of Equivest Finance, Inc. in
February 2002, (iv) $68 million of borrowings to fund relocation receivables and
(v) the issuance during 2002 of $732 million of unsecured term notes bearing
interest and $211 million of commercial paper. Such increases were partially
offset by (i) a decrease of $270 million in secured short-term mortgage
borrowings primarily due to lower mortgage warehousing needs and (ii) the
repayment of $750 million of outstanding borrowings under revolving credit
facilities.
We also currently have $3.0 billion of availability for public debt or equity
issuances under a shelf registration statement at the corporate level and $2.1
billion of availability for public debt issuances under shelf registration
statements at the PHH level.
LIQUIDITY RISK
Our liquidity position may be negatively affected by unfavorable conditions in
any one of the industries in which we operate, as our ability to generate cash
flows from operating activities may be reduced due to those unfavorable
conditions. Additionally, our liquidity as it relates to both management and
mortgage programs could be adversely affected by deterioration in the
performance of the underlying assets of such programs. Access to the principal
financing program for our car rental subsidiary may also be impaired should
General Motors Corporation not be able to honor its obligations to repurchase a
substantial number of our vehicles. Our liquidity as it relates to mortgage
programs is highly dependent on the secondary markets for mortgage loans. Access
to certain of our securitization facilities and our ability to act as servicer
thereto also may be limited in the event that our or PHH's credit ratings are
downgraded below investment grade and, in certain circumstances, where we or PHH
fail to meet certain financial ratios. However, we do not believe that our or
PHH's credit ratings are likely to fall below such thresholds. Additionally, we
monitor the maintenance of these financial ratios and, as of September 30, 2002,
we were in compliance with all covenants under these facilities.
Currently our credit ratings are as follows:
MOODY'S
INVESTOR STANDARD FITCH
SERVICE & POOR'S RATINGS

CENDANT
Senior unsecured debt Baa1 BBB BBB+
Subordinated debt Baa2 BBB- BBB

Short-term debt P-2 A-2 F2
A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and is
subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating agency.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
During third quarter 2002, our Board of Directors accelerated the vesting of
certain options previously granted with exercise prices greater than or equal to
$15.1875. Our senior executive officers were not eligible for this modification.
In connection with such action, approximately 43 million options, substantially
all of which were scheduled to become exercisable by January 2004, became
exercisable as of August 27, 2002. In addition, the post-employment exercise
period for the modified options was reduced from one year to thirty days.
However, if the employee remains employed by us through the date on which the
option was originally scheduled to become vested, the post-employment exercise
period will be one year. As permitted by SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation," we currently measure our stock-based compensation
using the intrinsic value approach under APB Opinion No. 25. Accordingly, we do
not recognize compensation expense upon the issuance of its stock options
because the option terms are fixed and the exercise price equals the market
price of the underlying CD common stock on the grant date. We comply with the
provision of SFAS No. 123 by providing pro forma disclosures of net income and
related per share data giving consideration to the fair value method provisions
of SFAS No. 123. In accordance with the provisions of the FASB Interpretation
No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation (an
Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25)," there is no charge associated with the
August 27, 2002 modification since none of the modified options had intrinsic
value because the market price of the underlying CD common stock on August 27,
2002 was less than the exercise price of the modified options.
On January 1, 2003, we plan to adopt the fair value method of accounting for
stock-based compensation provisions of SFAS No. 123, which is considered by the
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") to be the preferable accounting
method for stock-based employee compensation. Subsequent to the adoption of the
fair value method provisions of SFAS No. 123, we will expense all future
employee stock options (and similar awards) over the vesting period based on the
fair value of the award on the date of grant. We do not expect our results of
operations to be impacted in the current year from this prospective change in
accounting policy based on the current accounting guidance related to this
adoption, which is currently under review by the FASB.
The impact of recording compensation expense at fair value in prior periods has
been included in the pro forma disclosures, as required by SFAS No. 123 provided
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed on November 4, 2002. Prior period
compensation expense is not necessarily indicative of future compensation
expense that would be recorded by us upon our adoption of the fair value method
provisions of SFAS No. 123. Future expense may vary based upon factors such as
the number of options granted by us and the then-current fair market value of
such options.
AFFILIATED ENTITIES
We maintain certain relationships with affiliated entities principally to
support our business model of growing earnings and cash flow with minimal asset
risk. We do not have the ability to control the operating and financial policies
of these entities and, accordingly, do not consolidate these entities in our
results of operations or financial position. Certain of our officers serve on
the Board of Directors of these entities, but in no instances do they constitute
a majority of the Board, nor do they receive any economic benefits therefrom.
TRIP NETWORK, INC. During October 2001, we entered into lease and licensing
agreements, a travel services agreement and a global distribution services
subscriber agreement with Trip Network, Inc. During the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2002, revenues recognized by us in connection with these
agreements totaled $2 million and $8 million, respectively. We also incurred
related expenses of $2 million and $6 million, respectively, in connection with
these agreements.
At September 30, 2002, our preferred equity interest in Trip Network
approximated $17 million. During the three and nine months ended September 30,
2002, we did not record any dividend income relating to our preferred equity
interest in Trip Network.
FFD DEVELOPMENT COMPANY, LLC. FFD Development Company, LLC. was created by
Fairfield prior to our acquisition of Fairfield in April 2001 for the purpose of
acquiring real estate for the development of vacation ownership units that are
sold to Fairfield upon completion. During the nine months ended September 30,
2002, we purchased $62 million of timeshare interval inventory and land from
FFD, bringing the total cumulative amount purchased to $102 million as of
September 30, 2002. As of September 30, 2002, we are obligated to purchase an
additional $243 million of timeshare interval inventory and land from FFD,
approximately $140 million of which is estimated to be payable within the next
12 months. As is customary in "build to suit" agreements, when we contract with
FFD for the development of a property, we issue a letter of credit for up to 20%
of our purchase price for such property. Drawing under all such letters of
credit will only be permitted if we fail to meet our obligation under any
40
purchase commitment. As of September 30, 2002, Cendant had approximately $39
million of such letters of credit outstanding. We are not obligated or
contingently liable for any debt incurred by FFD.
At September 30, 2002, our preferred equity interest in FFD approximated $68
million. During the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, we recorded
non-cash dividend income of $3 million relating to our preferred equity interest
in FFD. During the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, we recorded
non-cash dividend income of $9 million and $3 million and $4 million,
respectively, relating to our preferred equity interest in FFD. Such amounts
were paid-in-kind.
TRILEGIANT CORPORATION. On July 2, 2001, we entered into an agreement with
Trilegiant Corporation to outsource our individual membership and loyalty
businesses to Trilegiant. During the three and nine months ended September 30,
2002 and 2001, we paid Trilegiant $147 million and $43 million, respectively, in
connection with services provided under this agreement. During the nine months
ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, Trilegiant collected $211 million and $100
million, respectively, of cash on our behalf in connection with membership
renewals. Additionally, as of September 30, 2002, Trilegiant owed us an
additional $6 million in connection with membership renewals. During the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2002, we recognized $3 million of royalty
revenues related to Trilegiant's members.
Trilegiant is also licensing and/or leasing from us the assets of our individual
membership business. In connection with the licensing and leasing arrangements,
Trilegiant paid us $15 million and $3 million, respectively, in cash during the
nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 and owed us an additional $4
million as of September 30, 2002.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002, we expensed $2
million and $14 million, respectively, related to the marketing advance we made
to Trilegiant in 2001. During the three and nine months ended September 30,
2001, we expensed $10 million related to this advance. As of September 30, 2002,
the remaining balance of the marketing advance approximated $53 million.
At September 30, 2002, Trilegiant had an outstanding balance of $65 million due
to us related to amounts drawn on the $75 million loan facility we have provided
in connection with a specific marketing agreement under which we expect to
receive commissions. We will collect such amount as commissions are received by
Trilegiant from the third party. We evaluate the collectibility of the note at
the end of each reporting period. Additionally, through September 30, 2002,
Trilegiant had not drawn on the $35 million revolving line of credit, which we
provide at our discretion.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
During April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements
No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical
Corrections." Such standard requires any gain or loss on extinguishments of debt
to be presented as a component of continuing operations (unless specific
criteria is met) whereas SFAS No. 4 required that such gains and losses be
classified as an extraordinary item in determining net income. Upon adoption of
SFAS No. 145, we expect to reclassify its extraordinary gains or losses on the
extinguishments of debt to continuing operations. We will adopt these provisions
on January 1, 2003.
During June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities." Such standard requires costs associated with
exit or disposal activities (including restructurings) to be recognized when the
costs are incurred, rather than at a date of commitment to an exit or disposal
plan. SFAS No. 146 nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 94-3,
"Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs
to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)."
Under SFAS No. 146, a liability related to an exit or disposal activity is not
recognized until such liability has actually been incurred whereas under EITF
Issue No. 94-3 a liability was recognized at the time of a commitment to an exit
or disposal plan. The provisions of this standard are effective for disposal
activities initiated after December 31, 2002.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS - RISK FACTORS
Forward-looking statements in our public filings or other public statements are
subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may
cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different
from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by
such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements were based on
various factors and were derived utilizing numerous important assumptions and
other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
from those in
41
the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include the
information concerning our future financial performance, business strategy,
projected plans and objectives.
Statements preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words
"believes", "expects", "anticipates", "intends", "project", "estimates",
"plans", "may increase", "may fluctuate" and similar expressions or future or
conditional verbs such as "will", "should", "would", "may" and "could" are
generally forward-looking in nature and not historical facts. You should
understand that the following important factors and assumptions could affect our
future results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those
expressed in such forward-looking statements:
o terrorist attacks, such as the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on
New York City and Washington, D.C., other attacks, acts of war; or
measures taken by governments in response thereto may negatively
affect the travel industry, our financial results and could also
result in a disruption in our business;
o the effect of economic conditions and interest rate changes on the
economy on a national, regional or international basis and the impact
thereof on our businesses;
o the effects of a decline in travel, due to political instability,
adverse economic conditions or otherwise, on our travel related
businesses;
o the effects of changes in current interest rates, particularly on our
real estate franchise and mortgage businesses; o the resolution or
outcome of our unresolved pending litigation relating to the
previously announced accounting irregularities and other related
litigation;
o our ability to develop and implement operational, technological and
financial systems to manage growing operations and to achieve enhanced
earnings or effect cost savings;
o competition in our existing and potential future lines of business and
the financial resources of, and products available to, competitors;
o failure to reduce quickly our substantial technology costs in response
to a reduction in revenue, particularly in our computer reservations
and global distribution systems businesses;
o our failure to provide fully integrated disaster recovery technology
solutions in the event of a disaster; o our ability to integrate and
operate successfully acquired and merged businesses and risks
associated with such businesses, including the acquisitions of The
DeWolfe Companies, NRT Incorporated, Arvida Realty Services, Trendwest
Resorts, Inc., Galileo International, Inc. and Cheap Tickets, Inc. and
the pending acquisition of Budget Group, Inc., the compatibility of
the operating systems of the combining companies, and the degree to
which our existing administrative and back-office functions and costs
and those of the acquired companies are complementary or redundant;
o our ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms to finance our
growth strategy and to operate within the limitations imposed by
financing arrangements and to maintain our credit ratings;
o competitive and pricing pressures in the vacation ownership and travel
industries, including the car rental industry; o changes in the
vehicle manufacturer repurchase arrangements in our Avis car rental
business in the event that used vehicle values decrease;
o filing of bankruptcy by or the loss of business of any of our
significant customers, including our airline customers; and o changes
in laws and regulations, including changes in accounting standards and
privacy policy regulation.
Other factors and assumptions not identified above were also involved in the
derivation of these forward-looking statements, and the failure of such other
assumptions to be realized as well as other factors may also cause actual
results to differ materially from those projected. Most of these factors are
difficult to predict accurately and are generally beyond our control.
You should consider the areas of risk described above in connection with any
forward-looking statements that may be made by us and our businesses generally.
Except for our ongoing obligations to disclose material information under the
federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to release publicly any
revisions to any forward-looking statements, to report events or to report the
occurrence of unanticipated events unless required by law. For any
forward-looking statements contained in any document, we claim the protection of
the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS
As previously discussed in our 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, we assess our
market risk based on changes in interest and foreign currency exchange rates
utilizing a sensitivity analysis. The sensitivity analysis measures the
potential loss in earnings, fair values, and cash flows based on a hypothetical
10% change (increase and decrease) in our market risk sensitive positions. We
used September 30, 2002 market rates to perform a sensitivity analysis
separately for each of our market risk exposures. The estimates assume
instantaneous, parallel shifts in interest rate yield curves and exchange rates.
We have determined, through such analyses, that the impact of a 10% change in
interest and foreign currency exchange rates and prices on our earnings, fair
values and cash flows would not be material.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. Our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules
13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act") as of a date within 90 days prior to the
filing date of this quarterly report (the "Evaluation Date"). Based on such
evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date,
our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting them on a
timely basis to material information relating to our company (including our
consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in our reports filed or
submitted under the Exchange Act.
(b) CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS. Since the Evaluation Date, there have not
been any significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors
that could significantly affect such controls.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
On July 9, 2002, we entered into an agreement to settle shareholder derivative
claims against several current and former officers and directors of Cendant.
These actions, DEUTCH V. SILVERMAN, ET. AL., No. 98-1998 (WHW) (D.N.J.) and
RESNICK V. SILVERMAN, ET. AL., No. 18329 (NC) (Del. Ch.), arose out of the 1997
merger of HFS Incorporated and CUC International and are more fully described in
our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2001, filed on
November 4, 2002. The settlement provides for the payment to Cendant of $54
million, less such attorneys' fees and expenses as may be awarded by the Court,
which are not expected to exceed $12 million, all of which will be provided
through proceeds of insurance policies covering the defendants. The settlement
is subject to approval of the U.S. District Court in New Jersey, and a hearing
on the settlement was held on October 21, 2002.
ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
On July 18, 2002, pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, we issued 646 shares to each of four of our non-employee directors in
connection with such directors' compensation.
ITEM 6. EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K
(a) EXHIBITS
