(1) Consolidated net income from the income statement of this
news release.
(2) 2002 adjustments reflect: (i) additional taxes recorded in
connection with future repatriation of earnings from the
United Kingdom business unit, and (ii) a reduction in state
income tax related liability. The 2001 amount reflects the
first quarter 2001 impact of the United Kingdom business unit
tax adjustment.
(3) Generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") require
the Company to record an expense relating to
performance-based options. See Stock Options.
(4) Average capital is equal to the average amount of debt and
equity during the period, which includes $23,623,000 and
$22,864,000 added to reported shareholder's equity to reflect
the cost of stock options in 2002 and 2001, respectively.
(5) Return on capital is equal to NOPAT divided by average
capital.
(6) Weighted average cost of capital is equal to the sum of: (i)
the after-tax cost of debt multiplied by the ratio of average
debt to average capital, plus (ii) the cost of equity
multiplied by the ratio of average equity to average capital.
The cost of equity is assumed to be equal to the 30-year
Treasury bond rate plus 6% plus two times the Company's
interest bearing debt to equity, which includes $23,623,000
and $22,864,000 added to reported shareholders' equity to
reflect the cost of stock options in 2002 and 2001,
respectively.
(7) Total economic loss equals the Spread (ROC minus WACC)
multiplied by average capital.
(8) Includes actual shares outstanding plus total stock options
outstanding. Differs from shares used for GAAP earnings per
share which include only a portion of options outstanding.
(9) Economic loss per share equals the economic loss divided by
the adjusted weighted average shares outstanding.
(10) The Company's method of measuring options in the
calculation of economic profit (loss) is conservative in
two respects. First, the tax benefits of options have not
been included in our calculation of economic profit (loss).
Because option expense is deducted for tax purposes upon
exercise, more capital will be returned to the Company upon
exercise than is invested in repurchased shares. Second,
options may be cancelled due to turnover or the failure to
meet performance targets. Cancellations will be factored in
as they occur. One additional risk is assumed. Should options
be issued and shares repurchased above intrinsic value, and
the options subsequently expire unexercised, a loss equal to
the amount paid above intrinsic value would be incurred.
(11) Adjusted net income per share equals the adjusted net income
divided by the adjusted weighted average shares outstanding.

The Company's efforts to improve the return on capital have focused on increasing the spread between the amount advanced to dealer-partners and the forecasted collection rate.

The United Kingdom Business Segment's ("United Kingdom Operation") economic loss increased to ($872,000) or ($0.02) per adjusted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 compared with ($375,000) or ($0.01) per adjusted share for the same period in 2001 primarily due to a decrease in the return on capital to 6.00% from 8.39% for the same period in 2001. The decrease in the return on capital is primarily due to a reduction in finance charge revenue as a percent of average capital as a result of an increase in the average loan term. To a lesser extent, the reduction was due to an increase in operating expenses as a percent of average capital. The decrease in the return on capital is partially offset by a lower average cost of capital, which was a result of lower interest rates during the period. The United Kingdom Operation originated $17,538,000 in automobile loans for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 compared with $35,357,000 for the same period in 2001, representing a decrease of 50.4%. The reduction in loan origination volume in the United Kingdom is a result of the same strategy as described under the North America Business Segment.

Notes: This is usually reflected in the company's income statement as an expense, thereby reducing net income. was necessary in the first quarter of 2002. Stock Options In 1999, the Company began granting performance-based stock options to employees. Performance-based options are options that vest solely based on the achievement of performance targets, in our case targets based on either earnings per share or economic profit. GAAP GAAP See: Generally Accepted Accounting Principles GAAP See generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). requires companies to expense performance-based options when it is likely that performance targets will be met and a measurement date can be established. The amount of the reported expense is the price of our stock at the end of each reporting period less the exercise price of the options. The Company's non-performance options are not required to be expensed under GAAP. Regardless of the accounting, options represent a significant cost to shareholders. The true cost is the business value transferred to the employee in stock, less the exercise proceeds, a number that is difficult to calculate since it depends on when options are exercised and the future performance of the business. GAAP provides several alternatives for accounting for this cost. In the Company's opinion, none of these alternatives provide a method that accurately captures the true cost of options in all circumstances. Because the Company believes that accurately understanding and managing the cost of options is essential, over the last 3 years, the Years, The the seven decades of Eleanor Pargiter’s life. [Br. Lit.: Benét, 1109] See : Time Company has developed the following practices regarding stock options: -- When options are issued, the Company's general practice is to repurchase the same number of shares. Future options will not be granted unless shares have first been repurchased in the open market, and will have a strike price no less than the average price of the repurchased shares. For shareholders, the only impact of options therefore is the capital used to repurchase shares is no longer available to invest in income producing assets. This cost, the opportunity cost of the capital used to repurchase shares until the capital is returned upon option exercise, already reduces our reported earnings. -- Option grants are predominantly performance-based, with appropriately aggressive vesting targets. The Company believes that these options properly align the interests of management and shareholders by rewarding management only for exceptional business performance. -- Starting this quarter, the calculation of economic profit (loss) includes three adjustments to GAAP to reflect the cost of options. First, to avoid double counting, the GAAP expense recorded for performance options is added back. Second, to be conservative, all options outstanding are included in our fully diluted share base. Finally, economic profit (loss) includes a charge for the capital used to repurchase shares covering options grants. Since 1999, net of cancelled can·cel v. can·celed also can·celled, can·cel·ing also can·cel·ling, can·cels also can·cels v.tr. 1. To cross out with lines or other markings. See Synonyms at erase. 2. options, 1,401,000 options have been issued compared with 4,439,000 shares repurchased in the amount of $23,623,000. Because of options granted prior to 1999, there are currently more options outstanding than repurchased shares. These uncovered options Uncovered options See: Naked options will be covered through future repurchases and the cost included in subsequent periods. Credit Acceptance understands that options represent a cost to shareholders. The Company believes this cost is now accurately measured and charged to economic profit per share, the number on which the Company's management incentive compensation system is based. These practices regarding options were adopted to increase the chance that future option grants will create value for shareholders.
