FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

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 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", "projects", "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:

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.

PART I—FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 1.    Financial Statements


INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholder of
PHH Corporation
Parsippany, New Jersey

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet of PHH Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cendant Corporation, as of March 31, 2003, the related consolidated condensed statements of income and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2002. 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 reviews, 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, 2002, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholder's equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 5, 2003 (February 13, 2003 as to the subsequent event described in Note 20), we expressed an unqualified opinion (and included an explanatory paragraph with respect to the adoption of the non-amortization provisions for goodwill and other indefinite lived intangible assets and the modification of the accounting treatment relating to securitization transactions and the accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities, as discussed in Note 1 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, 2002 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2. Management's Narrative Analysis of the Results of Operations and Liquidity and Capital Resources

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 a provider of relocation, mortgage and fleet management services. Our Real Estate Services segment provides homebuyers with mortgages and facilitates employee relocations and our Fleet Management Services segment provides fleet management and fuel card services to corporate clients and government agencies.

The majority of our businesses operate in environments where we are paid a fee for a service performed. Therefore, the results of the majority of our recurring operations are recorded in our financial statements using accounting policies that are not particularly subjective, nor complex. However, in presenting our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported therein. Several of the estimates and assumptions that we are required to make pertain to matters that are inherently uncertain as they relate to future events. Presented within the section entitled "Critical Accounting Policies" of our 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K are the accounting policies that we believe require subjective and complex judgments that could potentially affect reported results (mortgage servicing rights, retained interests from securitizations, financial instruments and goodwill and other intangible assets). There have not been any significant changes to those accounting policies nor to our assessment of which accounting policies we would consider to be critical accounting policies.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS—FIRST QUARTER 2003 V. FIRST QUARTER 2002

Discussed below are the results of operations for each of our reportable segments. Management evaluates the operating results of each of our reportable segments based upon revenue and "EBITDA," which is defined as earnings before income taxes and non-program related depreciation and amortization. On January 1, 2003, we changed our performance measure used in evaluating the operating results of our reportable segments and, as such, the information presented below for first quarter 2002 has been revised to reflect this change. Our presentation of EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies.

 Real Estate Services

Revenues and EBITDA increased $123 million (49%) and $55 million (87%), respectively, in first quarter 2003 compared with 2002.

Revenues from mortgage-related activities grew $124 million (86%) in first quarter 2003 compared with 2002 due to a significant increase in mortgage loan production resulting from continued historically low interest rates and increased revenues from our servicing operations. Revenues from mortgage loan production increased $110 million (61%) due to a 58% increase in the volume of loans that we packaged and sold, as well as growth in our fee-based mortgage origination operations (discussed below). We sold $12.7 billion of mortgage loans in first quarter 2003 compared with $8.5 billion in first quarter 2002, generating incremental production revenues of $79 million. In addition, production revenues generated from our fee-based mortgage origination activity increased $31 million (68%) as compared with first quarter 2002. Production fee income on fee-based loans is generated at the time of closing, whereas originated mortgage loans held for sale generate revenues at the time of sale (typically 30-60 days after closing). Accordingly, our production revenue in first quarter 2003 was driven by a mix of mortgage loans closed and mortgage loans sold. Mortgage loans closed increased $5.2 billion (42%) to $17.8 billion in first quarter 2003, comprised of a $4.5 billion increase (58%) in closed loans to be securitized (sold by us) and a $764 million increase (16%) in closed loans that were fee-based. The increase in loan origination volume was principally driven by substantial refinancing activity during first quarter 2003. Refinancings increased $4.6 billion (63%) to $11.8 billion and purchase mortgage closings grew $679 million (13%) to $6.1 billion. Additionally, our margin on securitized loans (production revenues divided by the principal amount of loans sold) increased from prior year levels.

Net revenues from servicing mortgage loans increased $5 million, which was driven by a $16.6 billion (17%) quarter-over-quarter increase in the average servicing portfolio. Net servicing revenues also included an additional $73 million of increased mortgage servicing rights ("MSRs") amortization and provision for impairment due to the high levels of refinancings and related loan prepayments, resulting from a lower interest rate environment. However, this was substantially offset by $69 million of incremental gains from hedging and other derivative activities to protect against changes in the fair value of MSRs due to fluctuations in interest rates. Operating and administrative expenses within this segment increased $69 million, primarily due to the continued high level of mortgage loan production and related servicing activities.

 Fleet Management

Revenues and EBITDA increased $14 million (4%) and $5 million (21%), respectively in first quarter 2003 compared with 2002 reflecting strong growth in our Wright Express fuel card business, which contributed incremental revenues of $10 million in first quarter 2003 compared with 2002 due to increased gasoline prices as Wright Express earns a percentage of the total gas purchased by its clients. The impact on EBITDA was partially offset by an increase in operating expenses to support a greater volume of cards.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We purchase assets or finance the purchase of assets on behalf of our clients. Assets generated in this process are classified as assets under management and mortgage programs. We seek to offset the interest rate exposures inherent in these assets by matching them with financial liabilities that have similar term and interest rate characteristics. As a result, we minimize the interest rate risk associated with managing these assets and create greater certainty around the financial income that they produce. Fees generated from our clients are used, in part, to repay the interest and principal associated with the financial liabilities. Funding for our assets under management and mortgage programs is also provided by both unsecured borrowings and asset-backed financing arrangements, which are classified

16


as liabilities under management and mortgage programs, as well as securitization facilities with special purpose entities. Cash inflows and outflows relating to the generation or acquisition of assets and the principal debt repayment or financing of such assets are classified as activities of our management and mortgage programs. 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.

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand and our ability to generate cash through operations and financing activities, as well as available credit and securitization facilities, each of which is discussed below.

 Cash Flows

At March 31, 2003, we had $73 million of cash on hand, an increase of $43 million from $30 million at December 31, 2002. The following table summarizes such increase:

 
  Three Months Ended

Effects of exchange rate changes     (2 )   1     (3 )
   
 
 
 
Net change in cash and cash equivalents   $ 43   $ 2   $ 41  
   
 
 
 

During first quarter 2003, we generated $59 million of additional cash from operating activities as compared to 2002. This change principally reflects greater contributions from our mortgage business despite a decrease in net cash inflows provided by mortgage origination and sale activity due to a timing difference on the receipt of proceeds from the sales of loans originated.

During first quarter 2003, we used $207 million less cash for investing activities compared to 2002. This change primarily represents a net decrease of $142 million in cash used in management and mortgage program investing activities, which primarily resulted from greater cash inflows from derivative contracts used to manage the interest rate risk inherent in our MSR asset. We also received proceeds of $64 million in first quarter 2003 on the sale of real estate, which resulted from our foreclosure on certain mortgages classified outside of assets under management and mortgage programs. We used more cash for capital expenditures to support operational growth, enhance marketing opportunities and develop operating efficiencies through technological improvements. We continue to anticipate aggregate capital expenditure investments for 2003 to be approximately $65 million.

We used $222 million more cash in financing activities during first quarter 2003 compared to 2002. This change primarily represents a net increase of $99 million in cash used in management and mortgage program financing activities, primarily related to a net decrease in borrowings repaid during first quarter 2003. In addition, during first quarter 2003, we used $35 million of cash to pay a dividend to Cendant and we used an additional $88 million of cash in connection with intercompany funding activities with Cendant.

As of March 31, 2003, we also had $916 million of availability for public debt issuances under a shelf registration statement.

 Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

In addition to our on-balance sheet borrowings, we sell specific assets under management and mortgage programs. We sell relocation receivables to Apple Ridge Funding LLC, a bankruptcy remote qualifying special purpose entity, in exchange for cash. We also sell mortgage loans originated by our mortgage business into the secondary market, which is customary practice in the mortgage industry. Such mortgage loans are sold into the secondary market primarily through one of the following means: (i) the direct sale to a government-sponsored entity, (ii) through capacity under a subsidiary's public registration statement (which approximated $856 million as of March 31, 2003) or (iii) through Bishop's Gate Residential Mortgage Trust, an unaffiliated bankruptcy remote special purpose entity. Presented

 Liquidity Risk

Our liquidity position may be negatively affected by unfavorable conditions in any one of the industries in which we operate. 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. 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 credit ratings are downgraded below investment grade and, in certain circumstances, where we fail to meet certain financial ratios. However, we do not believe that our credit ratings are likely to fall below such thresholds. Additionally, we monitor the maintenance of these financial ratios and as of March 31, 2003, we were in compliance with all covenants under these facilities. When securitizing assets under management and mortgage programs, we make representations and warranties customary to the securitization markets, including eligibility characteristics of the assets transferred and servicing responsibilities.

Currently our credit ratings are as follows:

 
  Moody's
Investor
Service

  Standard
& Poor's

  Fitch
Ratings

Senior debt   Baa1   BBB+   BBB+
Short-term debt   P-2   A-2   F-2

Our credit ratings, with the exception to those assigned to our short-term debt, are currently on negative outlook. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and is subject to revision or withdrawal by the assigning rating organization. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating.

As of March 31, 2003, our future contractual obligations have not changed significantly from the amounts reported within our 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Any changes to our obligations related to debt under management and mortgage programs are presented above within the section entitled "Liquidity and Capital Resources—Financial Obligations" and also within Note 4 to our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

 Changes in Accounting Policies

 On January 1, 2003, we adopted the following standards:

For more detailed information regarding these changes in accounting policies, see Note 1 to our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

 RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities
On January 17, 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." Such Interpretation addresses consolidation of entities that are not controllable through voting interests or in which the equity investors do not bear the residual economic risks and rewards. These entities have been commonly referred to as special purpose entities ("SPE"), although other non-SPE-type entities may be subject to the Interpretation. This Interpretation provides guidance related to identifying variable interest entities and determining whether such entities should be consolidated. It also requires disclosures for both the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity and other parties with significant variable interests in the entity. Transferors to a qualified special purpose entity ("QSPE") and certain other interests in QSPEs are not subject to this Interpretation.

21


For variable interest entities created, or interests in variable interest entities obtained, subsequent to January 31, 2003, we are required to apply the consolidation provisions of this Interpretation immediately. We have not created a variable interest entity nor obtained an interest in a variable interest entity for which we would be required to apply the consolidation provisions of this Interpretation immediately. For variable interest entities created, or interests in variable interest entities obtained, on or before January 31, 2003, the consolidation provisions of this Interpretation are first required to be applied in our financial statements as of July 1, 2003. For these variable interest entities, we expect to apply the prospective transition method whereby the consolidation provisions of this Interpretation are applied prospectively with a cumulative-effect adjustment, if necessary, as of July 1, 2003.

We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this Interpretation. Thus far, we have concluded that the adoption of this Interpretation will result in the consolidation of the Bishop's Gate mortgage securitization facility, as of July 1, 2003. The consolidation of Bishop's Gate is not expected to affect our results of operations. However, had we consolidated Bishop's Gate as of March 31, 2003, our total assets and liabilities under management and mortgage programs would have each increased by approximately $2.0 billion.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
On April 30, 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." Such standard amends and clarifies the accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." The provisions of this statement are generally effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. We are in the process of assessing the impact of adopting this standard on our consolidated results of operations and financial position.

Item 3. Quantitative And Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

As previously discussed in our 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K, 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 March 31, 2003 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 foreign currency exchange rates and prices on our earnings, fair values and cash flows and that the impact of a 10% change in interest rates on our fair values and cash flows would not be material. The potential impact on earnings resulting from a 10% increase and decrease in interest rates was a loss of $41 million and a gain of $20 million, respectively. While these results may be used as benchmarks, they should not be viewed as forecasts.
