During the six month period ended December 31, 1999, $9.4 million was reclassified from contract receivables to repossessed assets.

During the six month period ended December 31, 2000, $15.0 million related to Corvis was reclassified from contract receivables to Investments due to the required accounting treatment under SFAS 133. In addition, $5.5 million was also reclassified from contract receivables to Investments to reflect the value of preferred shares received for repayment of a promissory note in lieu of cash.

During the six month period ended December 31, 2000, $150,000 of Convertible subordinated notes were converted into common stock.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

In this discussion, the terms "DVI", the "Company", "we", "us" and "our" refer to DVI, Inc. and its subsidiaries, except where it is made clear that such terms mean only DVI, Inc. or an individual subsidiary.

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for complete financial statements. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our latest annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000.

In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2000 and June 30, 2000, the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, the consolidated statements of shareholders' equity for the period from June 30, 1999 through December 31, 2000, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six month periods ended December 31, 2000 and 1999. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2001.

Certain amounts as previously reported have been reclassified to conform to the presentation for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000.

Note 2. Recent Accounting Developments

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133, as amended, is effective for all quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000 and does not permit retroactive restatement of prior period financial statements. This statement requires the recognition of all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position measured at fair value. Generally, increases or decreases in the fair value of derivative instruments will be recognized as gains or losses in earnings in the period of change. If certain conditions are met, where the derivative instrument has been designated as a fair value hedge, the hedged item will also be marked to market through earnings thus creating an offset. If the derivative is designated and qualifies as a cash flow hedge, the changes in fair value of the derivative instrument will be recorded in Other comprehensive income. If the derivative is designated as a hedge of a net investment in foreign operations, changes in fair value of the derivative will be recorded as cumulative translation adjustments.

On July 1, 2000, we adopted SFAS 133. The recognition of the fair value of all freestanding derivative instruments resulted in recording liabilities in the amount of $260,000. The transition adjustment for derivatives in cash flow hedges was to record a liability of $380,000 and was recognized as a cumulative-effect-type adjustment in accumulated other comprehensive income. The transition adjustment for derivatives in fair value hedges was to record an asset of $56,000 and was recognized as a cumulative-effect-type adjustment to net income. This adjustment was offset by the adjustment of the carrying value of the hedged assets. The transition adjustment for derivatives in hedges of net investments in foreign operations was to record a liability of $88,000 and was recognized as a cumulative-effect-type adjustment in cumulative translation adjustments.

The majority of our assets and liabilities are financial contracts with fixed and variable rates. Any mismatch between the repricing and maturity characteristics of our assets and liabilities exposes us to interest rate risk when interest rates fluctuate. To manage our interest rate risk, we employ a hedging strategy using derivative financial instruments.

Our equipment loans are structured and permanently funded on a fixed-rate basis, but we use warehouse facilities until the permanent funding is obtained. Since funds borrowed through these warehouse facilities are obtained on a floating-rate basis, we are exposed to a certain degree of risk if interest rates rise and increase our borrowing costs. We manage this exposure through interest rate swaps or interest rate caps whereby we effectively change the variable borrowing cost to a fixed borrowing cost. These types of hedges are considered cash flow hedges.

In addition, when we originate equipment loans, we base our pricing in part on the spread we expect to achieve between the interest rate we charge our equipment loan customers and the effective interest cost we will pay when we permanently fund those loans, usually through securitization. Increases in interest rates that increase our permanent funding costs between the time the loans are originated and the time they are securitized could narrow, eliminate or even reverse this spread. We manage this exposure through the use of Treasury locks and forward start interest rate swaps to effectively fix the benchmark-pricing index of our forecasted securitization transactions. These types of hedges are considered cash flow hedges.

Changes in the interest rates affect the fair value of fixed rate assets and liabilities. In a rising interest rate environment, fixed rate assets lose market value whereas fixed rate liabilities gain market value and vice versa. We manage our fixed rate asset exposure to fair value changes through the use of interest rate swaps whereby we attempt to limit the change in their fair value by effectively changing the benchmark pricing index from a fixed rate to a floating rate. These types of hedges are considered fair value hedges.

At December 31, 2000, we held the following derivative positions to manage our interest rate risk:

Fair Value Hedges:

$ 16,058.0
$ (195.4)

In the next twelve months, we are forecasting to complete two domestic equipment securitizations. When these securitizations are completed, the fair value adjustments in Other comprehensive income will be reclassified into earnings and will be offset through the securitization closing entries, including adjustments to the gain on sale. If the fair value of the hedges is negative, the actual securitization pricing is lower than our hedged rate, which fixes our effective borrowing cost at our hedged rate. If the fair value of the hedges is positive, the actual securitization pricing is higher than our hedged rate, which also fixes our effective borrowing cost at our hedged rate. When the forecasted securitizations close, we currently expect $53,400 in fair value adjustments to be reclassified from Other comprehensive income into earnings.

The maximum length of time that we are hedging the exposure of our future cash flows for forecasted transactions is through November 2, 2003.

We have foreign currency exposures in our international operations due to lending in some areas in local currencies that are not funded with local currency borrowings but with U.S. dollars. In order to limit our exposure to foreign currency movements, we employ a hedging strategy using derivative instruments, primarily forward sales of the appropriate foreign currency. These types of hedges are considered net investment in foreign operations hedges.

At December 31, 2000, we held the following derivative positions to manage our foreign currency exposure:

There were $518,000 in losses in cumulative translation adjustments for the three months ended December 31, 2000 and $326,000 in gains in cumulative translation adjustments for the six months ended December 31, 2000.

Before entering into a derivative transaction for hedging purposes, we determine that a high degree of initial effectiveness exists between the projected change in the value of the hedged item and the projected change in the value of the derivative from a movement in interest rates or foreign currency rates, as applicable. High effectiveness means that the change in the value of the derivative will effectively offset the change in the value of the hedged item. We measure the effectiveness of each hedge throughout the hedged period. Any hedge ineffectiveness as defined by SFAS 133 is recognized in the income statement. When options are used for hedging, the time value of the option is excluded from this effectiveness assessment. For the six months ended December 31, 2000, there was a decline in fair value of $105,025 due to hedge ineffectiveness on cash flow hedges. This decrease was recognized in Other income.

Note 3. Corvis Corporation Warrants

Beginning in July 1999, we made certain loans to Corvis Corporation (Nasdaq: CORV) for which we received warrants that allowed us to acquire an aggregate of 737,900 shares of Corvis common stock at a price of $0.76 per share. There was a 180-day lock-up on the exercise of these warrants that prohibited us from selling or otherwise disposing of them before January 24, 2001. This provision affected the warrants' liquidity, and as a result the warrants were accorded a lower value than similar securities without such a transferability restriction. The fair market value of the warrants was adjusted using a value determined by an independent professional appraiser to reflect the price at which the warrants would have changed hands between willing buyers and sellers subject to the lock-up provision. We recognized the value of the warrants to be $15.0 million, classified as deferred loan fees. This amount was scheduled to be amortized into income over the life of the underlying loans. Upon the early repayment of the loan in November 2000, the remaining unamortized loan fees were recognized as income.

On July 1, 2000 we adopted SFAS 133, which classified the warrants as derivatives and required them to be recorded in our financial statements at fair value. At September 30, 2000 the increase in the warrant's fair market value was $15.0 million reflecting the consummation of Corvis' initial public offering and the subsequent active trading of the stock. This adjustment to the warrants' carrying value to reflect fair value was recorded in income. The total estimated fair value of $30.0 million for the warrants at that date was included on our balance sheet under Investments. At December 31, 2000, the estimated fair

 

value adjustment resulted in a $13.0 million decrease in the value of the warrants to $17.0 million. This charge was partially offset by $7.6 million in deferred loan fee income resulting from Corvis' full repayment of their loan during the quarter.

Effective January 1, 2001, DVI elected to convert the warrants to common stock and hold the shares as an available-for-sale investment in which future adjustments will be made to equity with no immediate impact on earnings. After executing a cashless exercise on January 24, 2001, DVI received 714,453 shares of Corvis common stock.

Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies

In December 2000, a former employee of the Company filed an action in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois (the Company subsequently had the case removed to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois) arising out of the Company's purchase of a partnership interest in and assets of Third Coast Capital ("TCC"), the Company's venture leasing division, in 1998. The plaintiff alleges that his decision to sell his interest in TCC and accept employment with the Company was based on his reliance on a number of promises allegedly made by the Company, including the Company's ability and willingness to fund the venture business in the future. The complaint alleges that these promises were false when made and represented a scheme to facilitate the Company's misappropriation and conversion of TCC's worth, alleged to be $25.0 million. The complaint alleges, among other things, fraud and breach of contract and seeks various remedies, including the payment of profits from TCC, as well as punitive damages .

The Company believes the lawsuit is without merit and will vigorously defend against it. The Company believes it will prevail in this matter and, accordingly, no contingent loss provision has been recorded.

Monthly interest expense for warehouses and securitization debt are expensed to the divisions based upon the underlying collateral and advance rates. The interest expense for unsecured debt is charged according to the amount allocated on the balance sheet using the quarterly yield of unsecured debt. On the balance sheet, unsecured debt is allocated according to the percent of unsecured debt to the sum of the unsecured debt and shareholders' equity at the consolidated level. Income taxes are allocated to each division using the best estimate of tax rates for that division.

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

Total equipment financing contracts originated and acquired were $218.3 and $382.8 million for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 compared with $194.7 and $406.0 million for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1999, representing an increase of 12.1% and a decrease of 5.7%. Included in origination for the six month period ended December 31, 1999 was $22.5 million in contracts acquired through our joint venture in Singapore. In addition, our origination for the three and six months ended December 31, 1999 included $19.0 and $38.8 million in new business from DVI Capital, our wholesale leasing business division. The operations of this division were closed in March 2000.

Net financed assets totaled $1.2 billion at December 31, 2000, an increase of $33.4 million or 2.9% from the total as of June 30, 2000. Not included in net financed assets were the contracts sold but still serviced by us, which increased to $961.3 million as of December 31, 2000 compared to $877.7 million as of June 30, 2000, an increase of 9.5%. Managed net financed assets, the aggregate of those appearing on our balance sheet and those which have been sold and are still serviced by us, totaled $2.1 billion as of December 31, 2000, representing a 5.7% increase over the total as of June 30, 2000.

During the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000, new line of credit commitments in our medical receivables financing business were $37.5 and $57.0 million compared with $16.2 and $40.9 million for the same periods of the prior fiscal year, representing increases of 131.5% and 39.4%. Net medical receivables funded at December 31, 2000 totaled $255.2 million, an increase of $2.2 million or 0.9% from the total as of June 30, 2000.

Total finance and other income increased 11.6% and 7.6% to $40.4 and $73.3 million for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 from $36.2 and $68.1 million for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1999.

• Finance income was $30.2 and $61.0 million for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 compared to $26.3 and $50.7 million for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1999. This 20.4% increase in finance income for the six months was largely due to the overall increase in the size of our loan portfolio. Based on average net financed assets of $1.2 billion and $1.1 billion, the annualized yield for the six months ended December 31, 2000 was 10.0% compared to 8.9% for the same period of the prior year. This corresponds roughly to increases in both the Prime rate and LIBOR rates over the past year.

• Corvis deferred loan fees of $7.6 million were recognized for the three months ended December 31, 2000 resulting from Corvis' full repayment of their loan in November 2000.

• Other income decreased 73.0% and 73.1% to $2.7 and $4.7 million for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 as compared to $9.9 and $17.4 million in the comparable prior year periods. Other income for the three and six months ended December 31, 1999 included $6.8 and $10.6 million related to the sale of shares of Cisco Systems stock. Other income consists primarily of servicing fees, late charges, medical receivables fees and contract fees and penalties.

Interest expense was $24.8 and $48.1 million for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 compared to $19.3 and $37.2 million for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1999. This 29.3% increase in interest expense for the six months is mainly attributed to higher levels of debt necessary to finance a larger average portfolio. This corresponds roughly to increases in both the Prime rate and LIBOR rates over the past year. The average annualized yield on interest-bearing debt for the six months ended December 31, 2000 was 9.0% compared to 8.2% for the same period of the prior year.

The net gain on sale of financing transactions increased 50.4% to $10.4 million for the three month period ended December 31, 2000 compared to $6.9 million for the three month period ended December 31, 1999, representing 8.2% and 7.1% of the $127.6 and $98.1 million in contracts sold during those periods. The net gain on sale of financing transactions increased 1.9% to $14.4 million for the six month period ended December 31, 2000 compared to $14.1 million for the six month period ended December 31, 1999, representing 6.5% and 7.5% of the $220.9 and $189.2 million in contracts sold during

those periods. The increase in gains during this period is due to additional loans sold and improvements in securitization market conditions.

Revaluation of the Corvis warrants resulted in a loss of $13.0 million for the three month period ended December 31, 2000 and a gain of $2.0 million for the six month period ended December 31, 2000.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 3.5% and 22.1% to $10.0 and $22.4 million for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 from $9.6 and $18.3 million for the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The increase is related primarily to higher compensation expense, legal costs related to the resolution of loan delinquencies, and the expansion and development of our international businesses.

The allowance for losses on receivables was $16.4 million at December 31, 2000, or 0.78% of our managed portfolio, compared to $14.3 million at June 30, 2000, or 0.72% of the managed portfolio at that time. We made provisions for losses on receivables for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 of $0.9 and $5.0 million, compared to $3.6 and $6.4 million for the same periods ended December 31, 1999. In addition, we provided for our estimates of losses on recourse credit enhancements for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 of $0.6 and $1.3 million. On a quarterly basis, we evaluate the collectibility of our receivables and record a provision for amounts deemed necessary to maintain an adequate allowance. Recoveries on receivables previously charged off were insignificant for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 and 1999.

Earnings before minority interest, equity in net gain/loss of investees and provision for income taxes decreased 79.1% and 29.7% to $2.2 and $14.3 million for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 compared to $10.6 and $20.3 million for the same periods ended December 31, 1999.

The provision for income taxes decreased 70.9% and 19.6% to $1.4 and $7.3 million from $4.8 and $9.1 million in comparing the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 to the same periods ended December 31, 1999. The decrease is primarily the result of the decrease in pre-tax earnings and a state tax adjustment related to the Corvis stock. The effective income tax rate for the six month period ended December 31, 2000 rose to 51.2% as a result of foreign withholding taxes (which are not impacted by the decrease in pretax earnings) and the inability to tax effect foreign losses.

Net earnings decreased 78.6% and 32.1% to $1.2 and $7.7 million from $5.8 and $11.4 million in comparing the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 to the same periods ended December 31, 1999. Diluted earnings per share decreased 76.3% and 32.0% to $0.09 and $0.51 from $0.38 and $0.75 when comparing the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 to December 31, 1999. The decrease in diluted earnings per share results mainly from the December 31, 2000 fair value adjustment of our Corvis warrants.

Business Segments

Equipment Financing

In our equipment financing business, net financed assets increased $38.4 million to $869.5 million at December 31, 2000 from $831.1 million at December 31, 1999. However, this segment's Net interest and other income decreased $0.9 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2000 compared to the same quarter of the prior year. The decrease was due to rising interest rates partially offset by an increase in other income. Net earnings for the three months ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 were $2.5 million. Although the earnings were about the same, the components were different. These components were a lower Net interest and other income, a higher gain on sale, an increase in selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses and our inability to tax effect certain losses in foreign countries. Gain on sale increased $2.0 million due to a larger portfolio sale and market improvements. SG&A expenses increased $1.1 million due to higher compensation levels, legal costs related to the resolution of loan delinquencies, and the expansion and development of our international businesses. Our tax expense would have been $0.3 million lower if we were allowed to deduct losses of all foreign operations.

Net earnings for the six months ended December 31, 2000 were $2.9 million compared to $5.9 million for the same period of the prior year. The $3.0 million reduction in earnings resulted from increasing interest rates, increasing SG&A and a higher tax rate. SG&A expenses increased $2.7 million due to higher compensation levels, legal costs related to resolving loan delinquencies and costs incurred by expansion into new markets. The increased SG&A costs were offset by a higher initial direct cost offset in this segment due to higher loan sales. Initial direct cost offsets are only recognized in the equipment financing segment for loans sold.

Medical Receivables Financing

In our medical receivables financing business, net financed assets at December 31, 2000 were $252.1 million, an increase of $17.4 million over the amount at December 31, 1999. The average portfolio outstanding during the quarter, however, was almost the same as that of the prior year, resulting in level earnings for the three months ended December 31, 2000 when compared to the same period of the prior year.

The average portfolio for the six months ended December 31, 2000 was $24.0 million higher than the same period last year. This increase resulted in an additional $0.7 million in Net interest and other income for the six months ended December 31, 2000 when compared to the same period of the prior year. This increase was offset by higher expenses, resulting in an increase in net earnings of $0.6 million.

Corporate and all other

Net financed assets increased $14.2 million to $69.4 million as of December 31, 2000 from $55.2 million at December 31, 1999. Net interest and other income decreased $13.6 million when comparing the three months ended December 31, 2000 to the same period of the prior year. The revaluation of the Corvis warrants and loan repayment during the current quarter accounts for $5.4 million of this decrease (see Note 3). In addition, $6.9 million in income was generated during the three months ended December 31, 1999 from the sale of Cisco Systems stock. Gain on sale increased $1.5 million due to the recording of a servicing asset for a securitization completed during the quarter ended December 31, 2000. SG&A expenses decreased $0.8 million due to lower compensation costs, lower legal settlement costs and additional costs allocated to our equipment financing segment. Offsetting these decreases is additional rent expense during the current quarter. The provision for losses on receivables decreased $2.7 million reflecting management's review and assessment of possible losses on contract receivables.

For the six months ended December 31, 2000, Net interest and other income declined $2.1 million in comparison to the same period of the prior year. Decreasing spreads and lower other income for the financial advisory services group accounts for $1.2 million of this decline. Higher amortization of initial direct costs accounts for $0.8 million of the decrease. Net earnings for the six months ended December 31, 2000 decreased $1.2 million due to lower Net interest and other income and higher expenses. Offsetting this is an increase of $0.5 million in gain on sale during the current year due to the recording of a servicing asset during the three month period ended December 31, 2000. This amount is further offset by the recording of a provision for losses on recourse credit enhancements. SG&A expenses increased $1.2 million mostly due to higher compensation and employee benefit costs and increased rent for our new corporate headquarters. These increases are partially offset by additional SG&A allocations to our equipment financing segment.

Financial Condition

Total shareholders' equity increased $6.8 million to $222.2 million at December 31, 2000 from $215.4 million at June 30, 2000. The increase was primarily due to net earnings of $7.7 million, offset by cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments of $0.9 million and unrealized loss on derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges of $0.8 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Summary of Cash Flows

Our cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 were $6.4 million and $6.8 million, respectively. The following describes the changes in the items that had the most significant impact on our cash flow during the six months ended December 31, 2000 and 1999.

Our net cash used in operating activities for the six month period ended December 31, 2000 was $28.9 million compared to $14.6 million during the same period of the prior year. The increase in cash used when compared to the prior year can be attributed largely to the increase in restricted cash and cash equivalents of $33.0 million for the six month period ended December 31, 2000 compared to a $26.4 million increase for the same period of the prior year. In addition, there was a decrease in deferred income taxes of $6.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2000.

Our net cash used in investing activities for the six month period ended December 31, 2000 was $58.5 million compared to $114.9 million during the same period of the prior year. The decrease in cash used when compared to the prior year is attributed mainly to the $48.8 million increase in notes collateralized by medical receivables during the six months ended December 31, 1999.

Our net cash provided by financing activities for the six month period ended December 31, 2000 was $87.5 million compared to $130.6 million in the prior year. Proceeds from long-term debt borrowings, net of repayments, were $80.3 million for the six month period ended December 31, 2000, compared to $132.5 million during the same period of the prior year.

Warehouse Facilities

At December 31, 2000 we had available an aggregate of $793.4 million under various warehouse facilities for medical equipment and medical receivables financing, consisting of $571.0 million available for domestic equipment contracts, $139.4 million for international contracts, and $83.0 million for medical receivables contracts.

Permanent Funding Methods

Through December 31, 2000, we have completed 27 securitizations for medical equipment and medical receivables financings totaling approximately $3.1 billion, consisting of public debt issues totaling $1.4 billion and private placements of debt and contract sales totaling $1.7 billion. We expect to continue to use securitization (on both a public and private basis) or other structured finance transactions as our principal means to permanently fund our contracts for the foreseeable future.

We have $230.0 million available under a facility with the option to sell to it certain equipment contracts. As of December 31, 2000, $127.6 million was sold to this facility. Our obligations under this facility include servicing of the assets and assisting the owners in the securitization of the assets if the owners choose to do so.

We believe that our present warehouse and permanent funding sources are sufficient to fund our current needs for our equipment and medical receivables financing businesses.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to two primary types of market risk: interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk. We actively manage both of these risks.

Interest Rate Risk

The majority of our assets and liabilities are financial contracts with fixed and variable rates. Any mismatch between the repricing and maturity characteristics of our assets and liabilities exposes us to interest rate risk when interest rates fluctuate. For example, our equipment loans are structured and permanently funded on a fixed-rate basis, but we use warehouse facilities until the permanent matched funding is obtained. Since funds borrowed through warehouse facilities are obtained on a floating-rate basis, we are exposed to a certain degree of risk if interest rates rise and increase our borrowing costs. In addition, when we originate equipment loans, we base our pricing in part on the spread we expect to achieve between the interest rate we charge our equipment loan customers and the effective interest cost we will pay when we permanently fund those loans. Increases in interest rates that increase our permanent funding costs between the time the loans are originated and the time they are permanently funded could narrow, eliminate or even reverse this spread. In addition, changes in interest rates affect the fair market value of fixed rate assets and liabilities. In a rising interest rate environment, fixed rate assets lose market value whereas fixed rate liabilities gain market value and vice versa.

To manage our interest rate risk, we employ a hedging strategy using derivative financial instruments such as forward rate agreements, Treasury locks, forward start swap and interest rate swaps, caps and collars. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We manage the credit risk of possible counterparty default in these derivative transactions by dealing exclusively with counterparties with investment grade ratings.

Before entering into a derivative transaction for hedging purposes, we determine that a high degree of initial effectiveness exists between the change in the value of the hedged item and the change in the value of the derivative from a movement in interest rates. High effectiveness means that the change in the value of the derivative will be effectively offset by the change in the value of the hedged asset or liability. We measure the effectiveness of each hedge throughout the hedged period. Any hedge ineffectiveness, as defined by SFAS 133, is recognized in the income statement.

There can be no assurance that our hedging strategies or techniques will be effective, that our profitability will not be adversely affected during any period of change in interest rates or that the costs of hedging will not exceed the benefits.

The following table provides information about certain financial instruments held that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. For assets and liabilities, the table presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity date at December 31, 2000. For derivative financial instruments, the table presents notional amounts and weighted average interest rates by expected (contractual) maturity dates. These notional amounts generally are used to calculate the contractual payments to be exchanged under the contract. Weighted average variable rates, which are generally LIBOR-based, represent the interest rates in effect at December 31, 2000. The information is presented in U.S. dollar equivalents, which is our reporting currency. The actual cash flows are denominated in U.S. dollars (US), Singapore dollars (SGD), Japanese yen (JPY), Australian dollars (AUD), British pounds (GBP) and Euro (EUR), as indicated in parentheses. The table excludes investments in direct financing leases totaling $327.8 million in accordance with disclosure requirements, although our lease contracts are exposed to interest rate risk. The information does not include any estimates for prepayments, reinvestment, refinancing or credit losses.

Comparison to Prior Year

The following table provides information about certain financial instruments held that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. For assets and liabilities, the table presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity date at December 31, 1999. For derivative financial instruments, the table presents notional amounts and weighted average interest rates by expected (contractual) maturity dates. These notional amounts generally are used to calculate the contractual payments to be exchanged under the contract. Weighted average variable rates, which are generally LIBOR-based, represent the interest rates in effect at December 31, 1999. The information is presented in U.S. dollar equivalents, which is our reporting currency. The actual cash flows are denominated in U.S. dollars (US), Euro (EUR), Singapore dollars (SGD), Japanese yen (JPY), Australian dollars (AUD) and British pounds (GBP), as indicated in parentheses. The table excludes investments in direct financing leases in accordance with disclosure requirements, although our lease contracts are exposed to interest rate risk. The information does not include any estimates for prepayments, reinvestment, refinancing or credit losses.

Total rate-sensitive assets increased $42.2 million from the prior year. This increase is primarily due to additional medical receivables notes of $21.3 million and higher domestic equipment receivables of $17.5 million.

Total rate-sensitive liabilities increased $135.6 million from the prior year. This increase was primarily due to the completion of an $80.0 million international equipment securitization and additional warehouse facilities.

Changes in the overall derivative positions held at December 31, 2000 and 1999 reflect the changes in the Company's exposures in its financial contracts.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We have foreign currency exposures in our international operations due to lending in some areas in local currencies. As a general practice, we have not hedged the foreign exchange exposure related to either the translation of overseas earnings into U.S. dollars or the translation of overseas equity positions back to U.S. dollars. Our preferred method for minimizing foreign currency transaction exposure is to fund local currency assets with local currency borrowings. For specific local currency-denominated receivables or for a portfolio of local currency-denominated receivables for a specific period of time, hedging with derivative financial instruments may be necessary to manage the foreign currency exposure derived from funding in U.S. dollars. The types of derivative instruments used are foreign exchange forward contracts and cross-currency interest rate swaps.

The following table provides information about certain financial instruments held that are sensitive to changes in foreign exchange rates. For assets and liabilities, the table presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity date at December 31, 2000. For foreign currency forward exchange agreements, the table presents notional amounts and weighted average exchange rates by expected (contractual) maturity dates. These notional amounts generally are used to calculate the contractual payments to be exchanged under the contract. The information is presented in U.S. dollar equivalents, which is our reporting currency. The actual cash flows are denominated in Singapore dollars (SGD), Japanese yen (JPY), Australian dollars (AUD), British pounds (GBP) and Euro (EUR), as indicated in parentheses. The table excludes investments in direct financing leases totaling $108.3 million in accordance with disclosure requirements, although our lease contracts are exposed to foreign currency rate risk. The information does not include any estimates for prepayments, reinvestment, refinancing or credit losses.

Comparison to Prior Year

The following table provides information about certain financial instruments held that are sensitive to changes in foreign exchange rates. For assets and liabilities, the table presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity date at December 31, 1999. For foreign currency forward exchange agreements, the table presents notional amounts and weighted average exchange rates by expected (contractual) maturity dates. These notional amounts generally are used to calculate the contractual payments to be exchanged under the contract. The information is presented in U.S. dollar equivalents, which is our reporting currency. The actual cash flows are denominated in Euro (EUR), Singapore dollars (SGD), Japanese yen (JPY), Australian dollars (AUD) and British pounds (GBP), as indicated in parentheses. The table excludes investments in direct financing leases in accordance with disclosure requirements, although our lease contracts are exposed to foreign currency rate risk.
