CNH INDUSTRIAL CAPITAL LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION

        CNH Industrial Capital LLC and its primary operating subsidiaries, including New Holland Credit Company, LLC ("New Holland Credit"), CNH Industrial Capital America LLC ("CNH Industrial Capital America"), and CNH Industrial Capital Canada Ltd. ("CNH Industrial Capital Canada") (collectively, "CNH Industrial Capital" or the "Company"), are each a subsidiary of CNH Industrial America LLC ("CNH Industrial America"), which is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of CNH Industrial N.V. ("CNHI" and, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, "CNH Industrial"). CNH Industrial America and CNH Industrial Canada Ltd. (collectively, "CNH Industrial North America") design, manufacture, and sell agricultural and construction equipment. CNH Industrial Capital provides financial services for CNH Industrial North America dealers and end-use customers primarily located in the United States and Canada.

        CNHI is incorporated in and under the laws of The Netherlands, with its principal office at Cranes Farm Road, Basildon, United Kingdom. The common shares of CNHI are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "CNHI," as well as on the Mercato Telematico Azionario managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A.

        Effective October 24, 2014 CNH Industrial Capital closed on a series of agreements with Citibank, N.A. and certain affiliates of Citibank, N.A. (together, "Citi"), pursuant to which Citi acquired CNH Industrial Capital's portfolio of commercial revolving accounts ("CRA") receivables. Pursuant to these agreements, Citi offers a private-label CRA product through CNH Industrial dealers in North America.

        The Company has prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information, which should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which is not required for interim reporting purposes, has been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of our interim unaudited financial statements have been reflected.

        The consolidated financial statements include the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company's subsidiaries in which the Company has a controlling financial interest and reflect the noncontrolling interests of the minority owners of the subsidiaries that are not fully owned for the periods presented, as applicable. A controlling financial interest may exist based on ownership of a majority of the voting interest of a subsidiary, or based on the Company's determination that it is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). The primary beneficiary of a VIE is the party that has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entity and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the entity. The Company assesses whether it is the primary beneficiary on an ongoing basis, as prescribed by the accounting guidance on the consolidation of VIEs. The consolidated status of the VIEs with which the Company is involved may change as a result of such reassessments.

        The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities

and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Significant estimates in these consolidated financial statements include the allowance for credit losses and residual values of equipment on operating leases. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2: NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

        In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification 605—Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Codification. The standard requires that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The guidance can be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period present (full retrospective method) or retrospectively with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings for initial application of the guidance at the date of initial adoption (modified retrospective method). The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

        In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Uncertainties About an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern ("ASU 2014-15"). ASU 2014-15 provides guidance on determining when and how to disclose going-concern uncertainties in the financial statements. The new standard requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date of issuance of the entity's financial statements. An entity must also provide certain disclosures if there is "substantial doubt" about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not believe the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

        In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation ("ASU 2015-02"). ASU 2015-02 is intended to improve targeted areas of consolidation guidance for legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability companies and securitized structures. The new standard eliminates the previous deferral in Accounting Standards Codification 810, which allowed reporting entities with interests in certain investment funds to follow previously issued consolidations guidance, and makes changes to both the variable interest model and the voting model. ASU 2015-02 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2015. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of ASU 2015-02 on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

        In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest—Imputation of Interest ("ASU 2015-03"). ASU 2015-03 is intended to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. The new standard requires the debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU 2015-03 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2015. The Company does not believe the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

        Accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") is comprised of net income and other adjustments, including foreign currency translation adjustments, pension plan adjustments, changes in fair value of the retained interests in the off-book retail transactions and changes in the fair value of certain derivative financial instruments qualifying as cash flow hedges. The Company does not provide income taxes on currency translation adjustments ("CTA"), as the historical earnings from the Company's foreign subsidiaries are considered to be permanently reinvested. If current year earnings are repatriated, the amount to be repatriated is determined in U.S. dollars and converted to the equivalent amount of foreign currency at the time of repatriation; therefore, the repatriation of current year earnings will not have an impact on the CTA component of the Company's AOCI balance.

Restricted Receivables and Securitization

        As part of its overall funding strategy, the Company periodically transfers certain financial receivables into VIEs that are special purpose entities ("SPEs") as part of its asset-backed securitization programs.

        SPEs utilized in the securitization programs differ from other entities included in the Company's consolidated financial statements because the assets they hold are legally isolated from the Company's assets. For bankruptcy analysis purposes, the Company has sold the receivables to the SPEs in a true sale and the SPEs are separate legal entities. Upon transfer of the receivables to the SPEs, the receivables and certain cash flows derived from them become restricted for use in meeting obligations to the SPEs' creditors. The SPEs have ownership of cash balances that also have restrictions for the benefit of the SPEs' investors. The Company's interests in the SPEs' receivables are subordinate to the interests of third-party investors. None of the receivables that are directly or indirectly sold or transferred in any of these transactions are available to pay the Company's creditors until all obligations of the SPE have been fulfilled or the receivables are removed from the SPE.

        The secured borrowings related to the restricted receivables are obligations that are payable as the receivables are collected. The following table summarizes the restricted receivables as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

        Within the U.S. retail receivables securitization programs, qualifying retail receivables are sold to limited purpose, bankruptcy remote SPEs. In turn, these SPEs establish separate trusts to which the

receivables are transferred in exchange for proceeds from asset backed securities issued by the trusts. In Canada, the receivables are transferred directly to the trusts. These trusts were determined to be VIEs. In its role as servicer, CNH Industrial Capital has the power to direct the trusts' activities. Through its retained interests, the Company has an obligation to absorb certain losses, or the right to receive certain benefits, that could potentially be significant to the trusts. Consequently, the Company has consolidated these retail trusts.

        With regard to the wholesale receivable securitization programs, the Company sells eligible receivables on a revolving basis to structured master trust facilities which are limited-purpose, bankruptcy-remote SPEs. These trusts were determined to be VIEs. In its role as servicer, CNH Industrial Capital has the power to direct the trusts' activities. Through its retained interests, the Company provides security to investors in the event that cash collections from the receivables are not sufficient to make principal and interest payments on the securities. Consequently, CNH Industrial Capital has consolidated these wholesale trusts.

Allowance for Credit Losses

        The allowance for credit losses is the Company's estimate of probable losses for receivables owned by the Company and consists of two components, depending on whether the receivable has been individually identified as being impaired. The first component of the allowance for credit losses covers the receivables specifically reviewed by management for which the Company has determined it is probable that it will not collect all the principal and interest payments as per the terms of the contract. Receivables are individually reviewed for impairment based on, among other items, amounts outstanding, days past due and prior collection history. These receivables are subject to impairment measurement at the loan level based either on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the receivables' effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent receivables.

        The second component of the allowance for credit losses covers all receivables that have not been individually reviewed for impairment. The allowance for these receivables is based on aggregated portfolio evaluations, generally by financial product. The allowance for retail credit losses is based on loss forecast models that consider a variety of factors that include, but are not limited to, historical loss experience, collateral value, portfolio balance and delinquency. The allowance for wholesale credit losses is based on loss forecast models that consider the same factors as the retail models plus dealer risk ratings. The loss forecast models are updated on a quarterly basis. In addition, qualitative factors that are not fully captured in the loss forecast models, including industry trends, and macroeconomic factors are considered in the evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses. These qualitative factors are subjective and require a degree of management judgment.

        Charge-offs of principal amounts of receivables outstanding are deducted from the allowance at the point when it is determined to be probable that all amounts due will not be collected

        The Company's allowance for credit losses is currently segregated into two portfolio segments: retail and wholesale. A portfolio segment is the level at which the Company develops a systematic methodology for determining its allowance for credit losses. The retail segment includes retail notes and finance lease receivables. The wholesale segment includes wholesale financing to CNH Industrial North America

dealers. Prior to sale of its CRA portfolio to Citi, there was a third segment called other, which included the Company's CRA portfolio.

        Further, the Company evaluates its portfolio segments by class of receivable: United States and Canada. Typically, the Company's receivables within a geographic area have similar risk profiles and methods for assessing and monitoring risk. These classes align with management reporting.

        Utilizing an internal credit scoring model, which considers customers' attributes, prior credit history and each retail transaction's attributes, the Company assigns a credit quality rating to each retail customer, by specific transaction, as part of the retail underwriting process. This rating is used in setting the terms on the transaction, including the interest rate. A description of the general characteristics of the customers' risk grades is as follows:

        Titanium—Customers from whom the Company expects no collection or loss activity.

        Platinum—Customers from whom the Company expects minimal, if any, collection or loss activity.

        Gold, Silver, Bronze—Customers defined as those with the potential for collection or loss activity.

        As part of the ongoing monitoring of the credit quality of the wholesale portfolio, the Company utilizes an internal credit scoring model that assigns a risk grade for each dealer. The scoring model considers the strength of the dealer's financial condition and payment history. The Company considers the dealers' ratings in the quarterly credit allowance analysis. A description of the general characteristics of the dealer risk grades is as follows:

        Grades A and B—Includes receivables due from dealers that have significant capital strength, moderate leverage, stable earnings and growth, and excellent payment performance.

        Grade C—Includes receivables due from dealers with moderate credit risk. Dealers of this grade are differentiated from higher grades on a basis of leverage or payment performance.

        Grade D—Includes receivables due from dealers with additional credit risk. These dealers require additional monitoring due to their weaker financial condition or payment performance.

        A breakdown of the wholesale portfolio by its credit quality indicators as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 is as follows:

        The following tables present information at the level at which management assesses and monitors its credit risk. Receivables are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Delinquency is reported on receivables greater than 30 days past due.

        Recognition of income is generally suspended when management determines that collection of future finance income is not probable or when an account becomes 120 days delinquent, whichever occurs first. Interest accrual is resumed if the receivable becomes contractually current and collection becomes probable. Previously suspended income is recognized at that time. The receivables on nonaccrual status as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are as follows:

Troubled Debt Restructurings

        A restructuring of a receivable constitutes a troubled debt restructuring ("TDR") when the lender grants a concession it would not otherwise consider to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties. As a collateral-based lender, the Company typically will repossess collateral in lieu of restructuring receivables. As such, for retail receivables, concessions are typically provided based on bankruptcy court proceedings. For wholesale receivables, concessions granted may include extended contract maturities, inclusion of

NOTE 4: RECEIVABLES (Continued)

interest-only periods, modification of a contractual interest rate to a below market interest rate and waiving of interest and principal.

        TDRs are reviewed along with other receivables as part of management's ongoing evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses attributable to TDRs is based on the most probable source of repayment, which is normally the liquidation of collateral. In determining collateral value, the Company estimates the current fair market value of the equipment collateral and considers credit enhancements such as additional collateral and third-party guarantees.

        Before removing a receivable from TDR classification, a review of the borrower is conducted. If concerns exist about the future ability of the borrower to meet its obligations under the loans based on a credit review, the TDR classification is not removed from the receivable.

        As of March 31, 2015, the Company had approximately 630 retail and finance lease receivable contracts classified as TDRs, of which the pre-modification value was $16,822 and the post-modification value was $15,329. A court has determined the concession in 385 of these cases. The pre-modification value of these contracts was $6,670 and the post-modification value was $5,550. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had approximately 770 retail and finance lease receivable contracts classified as TDRs, of which the pre-modification value was $17,800 and the post-modification value was $15,710. A court has determined the concession in 499 of these cases. The pre-modification value of these contracts was $9,117 and the post-modification value was $7,435. As the outcome of the bankruptcy cases is determined by a court based on available assets, subsequent re-defaults are unusual and were not material for retail and finance lease receivable contracts that were modified in a TDR during the previous 12 months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.

        As of March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company's wholesale TDRs were immaterial.

NOTE 5: DEBT

        On February 26, 2015, the Company, through a bankruptcy-remote trust, issued C$324,853 ($260,904) of amortizing asset-backed notes secured by Canadian retail loan contracts.

        On March 4, 2015, the Company, through a bankruptcy-remote trust, issued $800,000 of amortizing asset-backed notes secured by U.S. retail loan contracts.

        On March 11, 2015, the Company entered into a $100,000, three-year, unsecured term loan.

        On March 30, 2015, the Company drew $100,000 on an existing revolving credit facility. The loan was repaid on April 7, 2015.

NOTE 6: INCOME TAXES

        The effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 were 34.5% and 34.2%, respectively. The Company's provision for income taxes is based on an estimated tax rate for the year applied to the year-to-date federal, state and foreign income. The 2015 estimated annual tax rate is expected to be lower than the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate of 35% primarily due to profits in tax jurisdictions with lower rates, including Canada.

NOTE 7: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

        The Company may elect to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. This fair value option must be applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis with changes in fair value reported in earnings. The election can be made at the acquisition of an eligible financial asset, financial liability, or firm commitment or when certain specified reconsideration events occur. The fair value election may not be revoked once made. The Company did not elect the fair value measurement option for eligible items.

Fair-Value Hierarchy

        U.S. GAAP specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company's internally-developed market assumptions. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value hierarchy:

    Level 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

    Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.

    Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

        This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available.

Determination of Fair Value

        When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine fair value and classifies such items in Level 1. In some cases where a market price is not available, the Company will make use of observable market-based inputs to calculate fair value, in which case the items are classified in Level 2.

        If quoted or observable market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed valuation techniques that use, where possible, current market-based or independently sourced market parameters such as interest rates, currency rates, or yield curves. Items valued using such internally generated valuation techniques are classified according to the lowest level input or value driver that is significant to the valuation. Thus, an item may be classified in Level 3 even though there may be some significant inputs that are readily observable.

        The following section describes the valuation methodologies used by the Company to measure various financial instruments at fair value, including an indication of the level in the fair value hierarchy in which each instrument is generally classified. Where appropriate, the description includes details of the valuation models and the key inputs to those models, as well as any significant assumptions.

Derivatives

        The Company utilizes derivative instruments to mitigate its exposure to interest rate and foreign currency exposures. Derivatives used as hedges are effective at reducing the risk associated with the

21

NOTE 7: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

exposure being hedged and are designated as a hedge at the inception of the derivative contract. The Company does not hold or issue derivative or other financial instruments for speculative purposes. The credit risk for the interest rate hedges is reduced through diversification among counterparties, utilizing mandatory termination clauses and/or collateral support agreements. Derivative instruments are generally classified in Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The cash flows underlying all derivative contracts were recorded in operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Interest Rate Derivatives

        The Company has entered into interest rate derivatives in order to manage interest rate exposures arising in the normal course of business. Interest rate derivatives that have been designated in cash flow hedging relationships are being used by the Company to mitigate the risk of rising interest rates related to debt and anticipated issuance of fixed-rate debt in future periods. Gains and losses on these instruments, to the extent that the hedge relationship has been effective, are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and recognized in interest expense over the period in which the Company recognizes interest expense on the related debt. Ineffectiveness recognized related to these hedging relationships was not significant for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. These amounts are recorded in "Other expenses" in the consolidated statements of income. The maximum length of time over which the Company is hedging its interest rate exposure through the use of derivative instruments designated in cash flow hedge relationships is 52 months. The after-tax losses deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) that will be recognized in interest expense over the next 12 months are approximately $1,590.

        The Company also enters into interest rate derivatives with substantially similar economic terms that are not designated as hedging instruments to mitigate interest rate risk related to the Company's committed asset-backed facilities. These facilities require the Company to enter into interest rate derivatives. To ensure that these transactions do not result in the Company being exposed to this risk, the Company enters into an offsetting position. Unrealized and realized gains and losses resulting from fair value changes in these instruments are recognized directly in income and were insignificant for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.

        The Company's interest rate derivatives are considered Level 2. The fair market value of these derivatives is calculated using market data input for forecasted benchmark interest rates and can be compared to actively traded derivatives. If the future notional amount of the Company's interest rate derivatives is not known in advance, the derivatives are considered Level 3 derivatives. The fair market value of these derivatives is calculated using market data input and a forecasted future notional balance. The total notional amount of the Company's interest rate derivatives was approximately $3,169,089 and $3,457,267 at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The four-month average notional amounts as of March 31, 2015 and 2014 were $3,301,102 and $2,798,240, respectively.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

        The Company uses forward contracts to hedge certain assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. Such derivatives are considered economic hedges and are not designated as hedging instruments. The changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized directly as income in "Other expenses" and are expected to offset the foreign exchange gains or losses on the exposures being managed.

        All of the Company's foreign exchange derivatives are considered Level 2 as the fair value is calculated using market data input and can be compared to actively traded derivatives.

Under the fair value hierarchy, receivables measurements are classified as Level 3 and long-term debt measurements are classified as Level 2.

Financial Assets

        The fair value of receivables was determined by discounting the estimated future payments using a discount rate which includes an estimate for credit risk.

Financial Liabilities

        The fair values of long-term debt were based on current market quotes for identical or similar borrowings and credit risk.

NOTE 8: SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

        The Company's segment data is based on disclosure requirements of accounting guidance on segment reporting, which requires financial information be reported on the basis that is used internally for measuring segment performance. The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that are organized around differences in geographic areas. Each segment is managed separately as they require different knowledge of regulatory environments and marketing strategies. The operating segments offer primarily the same services within each of the respective segments.

Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

Organization

        We offer a range of financial products and services to the dealers and customers of CNH Industrial North America. The principal products offered are retail financing for the purchase or lease of new and used CNH Industrial North America equipment and wholesale financing to CNH Industrial North America dealers. Wholesale financing consists primarily of floor plan financing as well as financing equipment used in dealer-owned rental yards, parts inventory and working capital needs. In addition, we purchase equipment from dealers that is leased to retail customers under operating lease agreements.

Trends and Economic Conditions

        Our business is closely related to the agricultural and construction equipment industries because we offer financing products for such equipment. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, CNH Industrial's Agricultural Equipment net sales decreased 30.5% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. CNH Industrial's Construction Equipment net sales decreased 22.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014.

        In general, our receivable mix between agricultural and construction equipment financing directionally reflects the mix of equipment sales by CNH Industrial North America. As such, changes in the agricultural industry or with respect to our agricultural equipment borrowers ("farmers") may affect the majority of our portfolio.

        The financing we provide to our borrowers is secured by the financed equipment, which typically has a long useful life and is a key component in the farmers' sources of income. All of these factors contribute to the strong credit performance of our portfolio in recent periods.

        Net income attributable to CNH Industrial Capital LLC was $53.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $66.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Net income decreased primarily due to a reduction in net interest margin and higher depreciation costs associated with the operating lease portfolio. At each of March 31, 2015, December 31, 2014, and March 31, 2014, the receivables balance greater than 30 days past due as a percentage of managed receivables was 0.4%.

        Macroeconomic issues for us include the uncertainty of governmental actions in respect to monetary, fiscal and legislative policies, the global economic recovery, capital market disruptions, trade agreements and financial regulatory reform. Significant volatility in the price of certain commodities could also impact CNH Industrial North America's and our results.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2015 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2014

Revenues

        Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 were as follows (dollars in thousands):

 
  2015   2014   $ Change   % Change  

Interest income on retail notes and finance leases

Table of Contents

        Revenues totaled $225.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to $221.0 million for the same period in 2014. A higher average portfolio primarily drove the year-over-year increase, partially offset by a decrease in our average yield. The average yield for the managed receivables was 5.0% and 5.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

        Interest income on retail notes and finance leases for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $49.1 million, representing an increase of $0.6 million from the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase was primarily due to the favorable impacts of $0.3 million from higher average earning assets and $0.3 million from higher interest rates.

        Interest income on wholesale notes for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $18.9 million, representing an increase of $3.4 million from the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase was primarily due to the favorable impact from higher average earning assets.

        Interest and other income from affiliates for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $104.2 million compared to $107.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Compensation from CNH Industrial North America for retail low-rate financing programs and interest waiver programs offered to customers was $50.9 million and $59.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to lower volumes. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, compensation from CNH Industrial North America for wholesale marketing programs was $37.7 million, a decrease of $0.1 million from the same period in 2014. For select operating leases, compensation from CNH Industrial North America for the difference between market rental rates and the amounts paid by customers was $15.6 million and $10.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The increase was primarily due to higher originations.

        Rental income on operating leases for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $48.8 million, representing an increase of $12.3 million from the same period in 2014. The increase was due to a $13.7 million favorable impact from higher average earning assets, partially offset by a $1.4 million unfavorable impact from lower rates.

        Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $4.6 million, representing a decrease of $8.5 million from the three months ended March 31, 2014. The decrease was largely due to the sale of our commercial revolving account portfolio ("CRA") to Citibank, N.A. and certain of its affiliates.

Table of Contents

        Depreciation of equipment on operating leases increased for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily due to a higher operating lease portfolio.

        The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was 34.5%, relatively flat compared to the effective tax rate of 34.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Total originations

  $ 3,561,106   $ 4,588,722   $ (1,027,616 )   (22.4 )%

        Retail and wholesale originations decreased in the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014, primarily due to a decrease in unit sales of CNH Industrial North America equipment. The increase in equipment on operating lease originations for 2015 compared to 2014 was primarily due to an increased customer preference for leasing programs.

        Total receivables and equipment on operating leases held as of March 31, 2015, December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014 were as follows (dollars in thousands):

        Our allowance for credit losses on all receivables financed totaled $93.1 million at March 31, 2015, $95.5 million at December 31, 2014 and $100.4 million at March 31, 2014. The decrease in the allowance for credit losses from March 31, 2014 to March 31, 2015 was primarily due to the sale of our CRA portfolio. The level of the allowance is based on quantitative and qualitative factors, including historical loss experience by product category, portfolio duration, delinquency trends, economic conditions, collateral value and credit risk quality. We believe our allowance is sufficient to provide for losses in our receivable portfolio as of March 31, 2015.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        The following discussion of liquidity and capital resources principally focuses on our statements of cash flows, balance sheets and capitalization. CNH Industrial Capital's current funding strategy is to maintain sufficient liquidity and flexible access to a wide variety of financial instruments and funding options.

        In the past, securitization has been one of our most economical sources of funding and, therefore, the majority of our originated receivables are securitized, with the cash generated from such receivables utilized to repay the related debt or, in the case of wholesale receivables, to purchase new receivables. We expect securitization to continue to represent a substantial portion of our capital structure.

        In addition, we have committed secured and unsecured facilities, unsecured bonds, affiliate borrowings and cash to fund our liquidity and capital needs. We have accessed the unsecured bond market in order to add more diversity to our funding sources. As of March 31, 2015, our outstanding unsecured senior notes totaled $2.9 billion. We expect continued changes to our funding profile, with less reliance on the securitization market, as costs and terms of accessing the unsecured bond market continue to improve.

Cash Flows

        For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, our cash flows were as follows (dollars in thousands):

 
  2015   2014  
 
  (in thousands)
 

Cash flows from (used in):

             

Operating activities

  $ 208,617   $ 274,745  

Investing activities

    262,120     (541,427 )

Financing activities

    (433,110 )   (240,887 )

Net cash increase (decrease)

  $ 37,627   $ (507,569 )

        Operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2015 generated cash of $209 million, resulting primarily from net income of $54 million, adjusted by depreciation and amortization of $45 million, deferred income tax expense of $45 million and cash from changes in working capital of $61 million. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 was primarily due to a $95 million decrease in working capital and a $13 million decrease in net income, partially offset by $14 million in higher depreciation expense and an increase in deferred income tax expense of $25 million.

        Investing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2015 generated cash of $262 million, resulting primarily from a net growth in receivables of $229 million, a decrease in restricted cash of $193 million and proceeds from the sale of equipment on operating leases of $85 million, partially offset by $245 million in expenditures for equipment on operating leases. The decrease in cash used by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 was primarily due to an $802 million net decrease in receivables acquired.

        Financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2015 used cash of $433 million, resulting primarily from net cash paid on affiliated debt and long-term debt of $236 million and $122 million, respectively, $60 million redemption of preferred stock and a $15 million dividend paid to CNH Industrial America. The increase in cash used in financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 was primarily due to a $220 million increase in net cash paid on long-term debt and the $60 million redemption of preferred stock of subsidiary, partially offset by lower dividends of $75 million paid to CNH Industrial America.

Securitization

        CNH Industrial Capital and its predecessor entities have been securitizing receivables since 1992. Because this market generally remains a cost-effective financing source and allows access to a wide investor base, we expect to continue utilizing securitization as one of our core sources of funding in the near future. CNH Industrial Capital has completed public and private issuances of asset-backed securities in both the U.S. and Canada and, as of March 31, 2015, the amounts outstanding were approximately $6.9 billion.

Committed Asset-Backed Facilities

        CNH Industrial Capital has committed asset-backed facilities with several banks, primarily through their commercial paper conduit programs. Committed asset-backed facilities for the U.S. and Canada totaled $2.9 billion at March 31, 2015, with original borrowing maturities of up to two years. The unused availability under the facilities varies during the year, depending on origination volume and the refinancing of receivables with term securitization transactions and/or other financing. At March 31, 2015, approximately $0.5 billion of funding was available for use under these facilities.

Unsecured Funding

        As of March 31, 2015, we had outstanding unsecured senior notes of $750 million at an annual fixed rate of 3.875% due 2015, $500 million at an annual fixed rate of 6.250% due 2016, $500 million at an annual fixed rate of 3.250% due 2017, $600 million at an annual fixed rate of 3.625% due 2018, and $500 million at an annual fixed rate of 3.375% due 2019.

        As of March 31, 2015, we had a $250 million, unsecured facility with a final maturity in July 2016, consisting of a $150 million term loan and a $100 million revolving credit facility, which was fully drawn.

        As of March 31, 2015, we had available a $250 million, unsecured credit facility with a consortium of banks, with a final maturity in June 2017.

        On March 11, 2015, we entered into a $100 million unsecured term loan with a final maturity date in March 2018.

Affiliate Sources

        CNH Industrial Capital borrows, as needed, from CNH Industrial. This source of funding is primarily used to finance various on-book assets and provides additional flexibility when evaluating market conditions and potential third-party financing options. We have obtained financing from CNHI treasury subsidiaries and, from time to time, have entered into term loan agreements. At March 31, 2015, affiliated debt was $608 million, down from $862 million at December 31, 2014.

Equity Position

        Our equity position also supports our capabilities to access various funding sources. Our stockholder's equity at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $1.5 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively.

        During the three months ended March 31, 2015, CNH Industrial Capital LLC paid a cash dividend of $15 million to CNH Industrial America and CNH Industrial Capital Canada paid a cash dividend on preferred stock of C$0.7 million ($0.6 million) to CNH Industrial Canada Ltd. In addition, CNH Industrial Capital Canada redeemed all of its outstanding preferred stock for C$77 million ($60 million).

Liquidity

        The majority of CNH Industrial Capital's debt is self-liquidating from the cash generated by the underlying amortizing receivables. Normally, additional liquidity should not be necessary for the repayment of such debt. New originations of retail receivables are usually warehoused in committed asset-backed facilities until being refinanced in the term ABS market or with other third-party debt. New wholesale receivables are typically financed through a master trust and funded by variable funding notes or on a term basis. Our liquidity available for use as of March 31, 2015 is as follows (dollars in thousands):

 
  2015  

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash

  $ 1,040,249  

Committed asset-backed facilities

    2,914,512  

Committed unsecured facilities

    350,000  

Total cash and facilities

    4,304,761  

Less: restricted cash

    (654,635 )

Less: facilities utilization

    (2,499,231 )

Total available for use

  $ 1,150,895  

        The liquidity available for use varies due to changes in origination volumes, reflecting the financing needs of our customers, and is influenced by the timing of any refinancing of underlying receivables.

        In connection with a limited number of funding transactions, we provide financial guarantees to various parties on behalf of certain foreign financial services subsidiaries of CNHI for approximately $215.5 million as of March 31, 2015.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

        All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this quarterly report, including statements regarding our competitive strengths; business strategy; future financial position or operating results; budgets; projections with respect to revenue, income, capital expenditures, capital structure or other financial items; costs; and plans and objectives of management regarding operations, products and services, are forward-looking statements. These statements may include terminology such as "may," "will," "expect," "could," "should," "intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "believe," "outlook," "continue," "remain," "on track," "design," "target," "objective," "goal," "forecast," "projection," "prospects," "plan," or similar terminology. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Rather, they are based on current views and assumptions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside our control and are difficult to predict. If any of these risks and uncertainties materialize or other assumptions underlying any of the forward-looking statements prove to be incorrect, the actual results or developments may differ materially from any future results or developments expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

        Our outlook is predominantly based on our interpretation of what we consider to be key economic assumptions and involves risk and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ (possibly materially) from such forward- looking statements. Macroeconomic factors including monetary policy, interest rates, currency exchange rates, inflation, deflation, credit availability and government intervention in an attempt to influence such factors may have a material impact on our customers and the demand for our financing products and services. The demand for CNH Industrial North America's products and, in turn, our financing products and services is influenced by a number of factors, including among other things: general economic conditions; changes in governmental banking, monetary and fiscal policies; legislation, particularly relating to capital goods-related issues such as agriculture, the environment, debt relief and subsidy program policies, trade and commerce and infrastructure development; government policies on international trade and investment, including sanctions, import quotas, capital controls and tariffs; actions of competitors; development and use of new technologies and technological difficulties; compliance requirements imposed if additional engine emissions legislation and/or regulations are adopted; production difficulties, including capacity and supply constraints and excess inventory levels; labor relations; interest rates and currency exchange rates; inflation and deflation; energy prices; housing starts and other construction activity; our ability to obtain financing or to refinance existing debt; restrictive covenants in our debt agreements; actions by rating agencies concerning the ratings on our debt and asset-backed securities and the credit rating of CNHI; a decline in the price of used equipment; the effect of changes in laws and regulations, the results of legal proceeding, employee relations, political and civil unrest; volatility and deterioration of capital and financial markets, including further worsening of the Eurozone sovereign debt crisis, other similar risks and uncertainties and our success, and CNH Industrial's success, in managing the risks involved in the foregoing.

        Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which such statements are made.

        Furthermore, in light of ongoing economic uncertainty, both globally and in the industries in which we operate, it is particularly difficult to forecast our results and any estimates or forecasts of particular periods that we provide are uncertain. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. We can give no assurance that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements will prove to be correct. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. Our outlook is based upon assumptions, which are sometimes based upon estimates and data received from third parties. Such estimates and data are often revised. All written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by the

factors we disclose that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

        See our critical accounting policies and estimates discussed in our annual report for the year ended December 31, 2014 under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in such annual report. There were no material changes to these policies or estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2015.

New Accounting Pronouncements

        In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-03, Interest—Imputation of Interest ("ASU 2015-03"). ASU 2015-03 is intended to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. The new standard requires the debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU 2015-03 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2015. We do not believe the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

        Under the supervision, and with the participation, of our management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of March 31, 2015. Based on that evaluation, our President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

        There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2015 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
