1) Changes in Accounting Principles
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115
----------------------------------------------------------
During the 1994 first quarter, ITT adopted SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities". The new standard requires,
among other things, that securities be classified as "held-to-maturity",
"available for sale" or "trading" based on the company's intentions with
respect to the ultimate disposition of the security and its ability to effect
those intentions. The classification determines the appropriate accounting
carrying value (cost basis or fair value) and, in the case of fair value,
whether the adjustment impacts Stockholders Equity directly or is reflected in
the Statement of Income. Investments in equity securities had previously been
recorded at fair value with the corresponding impact included in Stockholders
Equity. Under SFAS No. 115, the Corporation's portfolios are generally
classified as "available for sale" and accordingly, investments are reflected
at fair value with the corresponding impact included as a component of
Stockholders Equity designated "Unrealized gain (loss) on securities, net of
tax". At September 30, 1994, the unrealized loss on securities, net of tax was
$ 990 million and is net of an unrealized gain pertaining to equity securities
of $30 million after tax.
In adopting SFAS No. 115, Emerging Issues Tax Force (EITF) Issue No. 93-18
prescribes specific accounting treatment with respect to mortgage-backed
interest-only investments. EITF 93-18 reached the conclusion that the measure
of impairment of these instruments should be changed from undiscounted cash
flows to fair value. Accordingly, the amortized cost basis of such instruments
that were determined to have other-than-temporary impairment losses at the time
of the initial adoption of SFAS No. 115 have been written down to fair value
and reflected as a cumulative effect of accounting change as of January 1,
1994. The writedown totaled $36 million after tax or $0.29 per fully diluted
share.
Change in the Discount Rate used to determine certain Workers Compensation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Liabilities
-----------
During the 1994 first quarter, the Corporation changed its method used to
discount long-term tabular workers compensation liabilities from a statutory
insurance rate to an appropriate market interest rate. The market rate, which
approximates 7%, represents the rate of return the Corporation could receive on
risk-free investments with maturities comparable to those of the liabilities
being discounted. At December 31, 1993, these liabilities were discounted at 3
to 3 1/2% in accordance with statutory insurance guidelines. A $42 million
after tax or $0.33 per fully diluted share benefit was recorded as a cumulative
effect of accounting change in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of
Income.

2) Discontinued Operations
On September 16, 1994, the Corporation announced plans to seek offers for
the purchase of its Finance business segment, comprised primarily of its ITT
Financial Corporation subsidiary. Proceeds are expected to exceed the
Corporation's investment in this segment. The net assets, results of
operations and cash flows of the Finance segment have been reflected as
"Discontinued Operations" in the accompanying financial statements. The
Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 1993 and the Statements of Income
and Cash Flow for the nine months ended September 30, 1993 have been restated
to conform with the 1994 presentation.
Summarized financial information for the Finance segment is as follows:
Nine Months Ended September 30, Year Ended December 31,

Shareholders Equity 1,287 1,036
*Includes gain on the sale of the unsecured domestic consumer small loan
business of $95 million pretax or $63 million after tax.
In February 1994, the Corporation spun-off ITT Rayonier, the Corporation's
wholly-owned forest products subsidiary, to ITT shareholders through a
distribution of ITT Rayonier shares. ITT Rayonier has been reflected as a
"Discontinued Operation" in the accompanying financial statements. The
Corporation's consolidated equity was reduced by approximately $600 million as
a result of the spin-off. The Consolidated Statements of Income and Cash Flow
for the nine months ended September 30, 1993 have been restated to conform with
the 1994 presentation.
3) Acquisitions
On August 27, 1994, the Corporation, in a partnership with Cablevision
Systems Corporation, entered into an agreement to purchase Madison Square
Garden Corp., which includes the MSG Network, the Knicks basketball club and the
Rangers hockey club for $1.075 billion. The partnership will be managed on a
50/50 basis. It is expected at closing that the Corporation will own
approximately 85% of the venture's equity and that during the first year,
Cablevision will become an equal partner through the contribution of additional
cash or other assets. Closing of the transaction is subject to various
regulatory approvals and is expected to occur in early 1995.
Through September 30, 1994, the Corporation acquired 35% of CIGA Hotels
SpA, a luxury hotel chain for $256 million. This investment is included in
"Other Assets" in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet. In October,
1994, the Corporation successfully tendered for an additional 35% of the company
resulting in a 70% equity interest at a total cost of approximately $515
million.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Net income for the third quarter of 1994 was $257 million or $2.01 per
fully diluted share ($2.14 per primary share) compared with $252 million or
$1.91 per fully diluted share ($2.03 per primary share) in the 1993 third
quarter. After-tax portfolio gains in the 1994 third quarter totaled $13
million or $0.11 per fully diluted share compared with $23 million or $0.18 per
fully diluted share in the 1993 quarter. Sales and revenues for the third
quarter were $5.7 billion, a 10% increase over the $5.2 billion in the 1993
quarter (both periods exclude ITT Financial which has been treated as a
Discontinued Operation).
Net income for the 1994 nine months was $734 million or $5.65 per fully
diluted share ($6.02 primary) compared with $694 million or $5.23 per fully
diluted share ($5.55 primary) in 1993. The results for the nine months of 1994
included after-tax portfolio gains of $48 million or $0.38 per fully diluted
share compared with $90 million or $0.70 per fully diluted share in 1993.
Sales and revenues for the first nine months were $16.9 billion, compared with
$15.5 billion in 1993, an increase of 9%.
The Corporation announced its intent in September 1994 to sell its Finance
segment, comprised primarily of ITT Financial Corporation. By divesting this
segment, the Corporation believes it will achieve a greater balance between
financial services, manufacturing and hotel and entertainment businesses.
Income from continuing operations contributed by the finance segment totaled
$106 million and $209 million (including last year's gain on the sale of the
unsecured domestic consumer small loan business) for the 1994 and 1993 nine
month periods.
Income from ongoing segments for the third quarter and nine months rose by
$72 million (22%) and $222 million (24%) compared with the respective 1993
periods.
In the Insurance segment, both revenues and operating income rose over the
1993 third quarter reflecting improved underwriting results in several lines
(particularly commercial) of the domestic property and casualty business as
well as strong revenue growth in the Life operations. Excluding operations in
runoff, the worldwide combined ratio improved to 102.6% compared with 105.2% in
the 1993 quarter.
For the nine month period, revenues and operating income improved
significantly compared with 1993 either before or after both portfolio gains
and the effects of excessive catastrophe losses, again due to improved domestic
underwriting results. The combined ratio for the nine months, excluding
operations in runoff, improved to 103.6% from 106.2% in 1993.
Insurance operating costs and expenses were as follows:

Benefits, claims and claim adjustment expenses $1,840 $1,738 $5,286 $5,105

====== ====== ====== ======

Page 10
ITEM 2. (Continued)
Operating income at Communication and Information Services for both the
third quarter and nine months were ahead of 1993 due to increased enrollments
at ITT Educational Services and lower operating costs at ITT World Directories.
Sales and revenues at Communications and Information Services were above 1993
for both the third quarter and nine months due to increased enrollments at ITT
Educational Services.
ITT Automotive operating income more than doubled in the quarter and
doubled in the nine month period reflecting in part the contribution of the
Electrical Systems, Inc. acquisition earlier this year. Excluding this
acquisition, operating income rose 89% in the quarter and 67% in the nine
months reflecting higher sales volume in both North America and Europe, as well
as the continuing benefits from cost reduction programs. Sales improved 49%
for the third quarter and 31% for the nine months compared with the 1993
periods.
Operating income at ITT Defense & Electronics declined in the third
quarter due to the inclusion in 1993 of favorable margin adjustments on the
close out of several contracts in the Defense units. For the nine month periods
operating income increased by $5 million (12%) over the 1993 period due
primarily to increased volume at certain Defense units. Sales at ITT Defense &
Electronics increased over 9% for the quarter and increased 8% for the nine
month period. Order backlog was $2.3 billion at both September 30, 1994 and
1993.
Operating income at Fluid Technology was up 9% for the quarter and 3% for
the nine months, when compared with the prior year, mainly the result of higher
volume and lower operating costs. Sales also improved 8% and 7% for the
respective periods, the result of higher volume.
Hotels' operating income, excluding the gaming division, rose during the
quarter as improved margins were reflected in several regions, including North
America. Gaming losses in the quarter offset the improvement. In the nine
month period, operating income improved 65%, on stronger margins in certain
regions, particularly North America and lower corporate overhead. Sales and
revenues increased 20% in the quarter and 18% in the nine month period.
Dispositions and Other reflects the sales and operating losses of
companies previously divested as well as ITT Community Development. The 1994
quarter and nine months includes a loss on the sale of several non-strategic
Electronics businesses, while the 1993 periods also include ITT Components
Distribution (divested in December, 1993).
Interest expense, net of interest income, was essentially flat in the
third quarter and nine months. "Other" consists of corporate expenses,
minority equity and non-operating income, which decreased in the third quarter,
primarily the result of lower corporate expenses and the inclusion in 1993, of
a $30 million pretax ($20 million after tax) charge to cover costs associated
with the restructuring program at ITT World Headquarters and the headquarters
of the company's businesses.
11
Page 11
ITEM 2. (Continued)
Income taxes increased in the third quarter of 1994 versus 1993 due to an
increase in pretax income from continuing operations and the inclusion of the
one-time benefit of U.S. tax law changes in 1993. The benefit ($22 million)
resulted from the remeasurement of the Corporation's net deferred tax assets at
35%. Income taxes related to Discontinued Operations, Extraordinary Item and
Cumulative Effect of Accounting Changes are reflected within those captions
separately on the income statement. For the nine months, income taxes
increased due to an increase in pretax income and higher foreign income tax
rates and the absence of the benefit of U.S. tax law changes previously
discussed. The Corporation's effective tax rate was 31% in the 1994 nine
months versus 23% in the comparable 1993 period.
Discontinued Operations related solely to the Finance segment in the 1994
quarter and to both Finance and Forest Products in all other periods. While
reported third quarter results in the Finance segment were below those of the
prior year, excluding its California commercial real estate portfolio,
Finance's operating income increased more than 15 percent from the 1993
quarter. The 1993 nine months also included an after-tax gain of $63 million
($0.48 per fully diluted share) on the sale of ITT Financial's domestic
unsecured consumer small loan portfolio. Assets, both funded and managed
receivables, of its core lending operation at September 30, 1994 were 16% above
the levels of one year ago. The Forest Product segment (ITT Rayonier) was
spun-off to shareholders on February 28, 1994. Net income for the nine month
period in 1994 included $12 million ($0.09 per fully diluted share) of earnings
prior to the spin-off compared with $50 million ($0.39 per fully diluted share)
in 1993.
The comparison of net income with 1993 in both the quarter and the nine
months is impacted by several unusual items. While both the 1994 and 1993
quarters included capital gains in the insurance portfolio, results for the
1993 quarter also included: (1) a one-time benefit of $22 million or $0.17 per
fully diluted share representing the effect of 1993 changes in the U.S. tax
law, (2) an after-tax charge of $20 million or $0.15 per fully diluted share
for severance and other costs associated with the Headquarters restructuring
program and (3) $7 million or $0.06 per fully diluted share from the company's
discontinued forest products operations, ITT Rayonier (which was spun off to
shareholders in February 1994). Excluding these items, net income and earnings
per share rose 11% and 15%, respectively, in the 1994 third quarter compared
with the 1993 third quarter.
The 1994 nine month period included two cumulative catch-up adjustments
for accounting changes as fully discussed in the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements; (1) a favorable adjustment of $42 million after tax or
$0.33 per fully diluted share for a change in the discount rate used to
determine certain workers' compensation liabilities at the Insurance segment
and (2) a charge of $36 million after tax or $0.29 per fully diluted share for
the adoption of SFAS No. 115 related to accounting for certain investments in
debt and equity securities. Results for the 1993 period included: (1) an
after-tax gain of $63 million or $0.48 per fully diluted share on the sale of
the unsecured domestic consumer small loan business at ITT Financial, (2) an
extraordinary after- tax charge of $50 million, or $0.38 per fully diluted
share representing the loss on the early extinguishment of debt at ITT
Financial, and (3) a $33 million after-tax charge or $0.25 per fully diluted
share, for severance and other costs associated with the Headquarters
restructuring program.
1994 also included $12 million or $0.09 per fully diluted share from ITT
Rayonier compared with $50 million or $0.39 per fully diluted share in 1993.
The 1994 period was unfavorably impacted by $40 million after tax or $0.31 per
fully diluted share for catastrophe losses in excess of expectations at the
Insurance segment related to the California earthquake and winter freezes. The
1993 period was adversely impacted by Winter Storm Josh and the bombing of the
World Trade Center in New York in the first quarter by $41 million or $0.32 per
fully diluted share. Excluding these items, comparable net income and earnings
per share rose 19% and 23%, respectively, in the 1994 nine months compared with
the 1993 nine months.

ITEM 2. (Continued)
Cash Flow
During the first nine months of 1994, the Corporation generated $676
million of cash from operating activities, down slightly from $686 million in
the same period last year, due primarily to the timing of cash flows, higher
income tax payments reflecting higher taxable income and higher working capital
requirements needed to fund growth. This cash, along with additional
borrowings and collection of the note from the Alcatel N.V. sale, was used to
fund the acquisition of ITT Electrical Systems, Inc., and various hotel
properties in addition to reinvestment in insurance investments and capital
additions. In addition, cash was also used to repurchase common shares as well
as redeem preferred stock of ITT Corporation and its Insurance subsidiary ($833
million in 1994 and $236 million in 1993) and to pay dividends to shareholders
which totaled $211 million and $210 million for the first nine months of 1994
and 1993, respectively.
Cash expenditures for plant, property and equipment, including insurance
activities, were $472 million in the first nine months of 1994 and are
projected to aggregate approximately $800 million for the full year compared
with $486 million in 1993. Depreciation for the first nine months of 1994 was
$373 million compared with $318 million in the corresponding 1993 period.
Accumulated depreciation amounted to 45% of gross plant at September 30, 1994,
compared with the 47% at December 31, 1993.
Debt and Liquidity
Excluding Insurance debt, outstanding debt at September 30, 1994 was $4.4
billion compared with the December 31, 1993 balance of $3.5 billion resulting
in a debt to total capitalization ratio of 42% at September 30, 1994 compared
with 33% at year-end 1993. Insurance debt increased from the December 1993
level of $1.0 billion to $1.5 billion to redeem preferred stock and to fund
growth at the Life operations. Debt was 49% of the total capitalization when
including Insurance debt at September 30, 1994, compared with 38% at year-end
1993. The debt to total capitalization ratios in 1994 have been impacted by
the adoption of SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and
Equity Securities, which requires investments to be reflected at market value
with the corresponding impact reported as a separate component of Stockholders
Equity. Excluding this impact, debt to total capitalization would be 39%
without Insurance and 45% on a fully consolidated basis at September 30, 1994.
Stockholders equity decreased $1.7 billion, to $5.9 billion from December
31, 1993 due primarily to share repurchases, the spin-off of ITT Rayonier and
the effect of a market value adjustment to the carrying value of the insurance
investment portfolios as required under SFAS No. 115. Dividends and the nine
months net income also impacted stockholders equity. Under its share
repurchase program, the Corporation repurchased approximately 9.1 million
common shares in the first nine months of 1994 at an average price of $82.01
per share for a cash cost, including commissions, of $743 million. An
additional 2.1 million shares were repurchased through October 27 at an average
price of $83.08 per share for a cash cost, including commissions, of $174
million.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Reference is made to Item 3 of ITT"s Form 10-K Annual Report for the year
ended December 31, 1993, in which ITT reported that Hartford Fire Insurance
Company, a subsidiary of ITT, together with other companies, associations and
organizations involved in the business of property and casualty insurance and
reinsurance, was named as a defendant in a group of lawsuits filed by Attorneys
General of 20 states and by various private parties in the United States
District Court for the Northern District of California. All of the suits,
which were filed in 1988, 1990 and 1991, were based upon allegations that the
defendants violated federal and/or state antitrust laws by reason of their
activities in connection with the development of new standard commercial
general liability policy forms by the Insurance Services Office, an industry
organization. In June 1991, the Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals reversed
the United States District Court for the Northern District of California which
had granted summary judgment in September 1989 in favor of all defendants,
including ITT Hartford. In June 1993, the Supreme Court reversed the Ninth
Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals, holding that the domestic insurers, including
ITT Hartford, had not lost their McCarran-Ferguson Act exemption from the
antitrust laws generally, as a result of activities alleged in the complaints,
but remanded the case for further proceedings to determine if certain of those
activities came within the "boycott" exception to the McCarran-Ferguson Act
exemption. On October 3, 1994, ITT Hartford announced that it, along with the
other 31 defendants, had settled this lawsuit. The settlement provides for a
payment of $36 million, the majority of which funds will be used to create a
public entity risk institute and national public risk database. It also calls
for changes in control of Insurance Services, Inc., a nationwide organization
which develops standardized policy language and compiles information insurers
use to determine their own insurance rates. The settlement agreement is
subject to approval by the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of
California.

earnings represents the adjustment to income for distributions in excess
of undistributed earnings of companies in which at least 20% but less
than 50% equity is owned.
(b) The interest factor attributable to rentals was computed by calculating
the estimated present value of all long-term rental commitments and
applying the approximate weighted average interest rate inherent in the
lease obligations and adding thereto the interest element assumed in
short-term cancelable and contingent rentals excluded from the commitment
data but included in rental expense.
(c) The dividend requirements on preferred stock of ITT have been determined
by adding to the total preferred dividends an allowance for income taxes,
calculated on the effective income tax rate.
