Discussion Third-Quarter Results / Outlook – Mike DeWalt Business Review – Doug Oberhelman Segments / Key Industries Actions / Progress

Third-Quarter 2015 Financial Results Lower sales in all regions and for each segment Most significant decline in Energy & Transportation Price realization negative $60 million Lower sales volume was the primary reason for the decline in profit Significant unexpected items in the third quarter of 2015 Adjustment to incentive compensation expense as a result of lowering the 2015 outlook reduced Q3 2015 operating costs by about $70 million, or about $0.09 per share. Currency translation losses on non US$ assets and liabilities and hedging losses combined were about $135 million, or about $0.17 per share in the quarter. Included in the Other Income and Expense line of the P&L, below Operating Profit. Sales and Revenues Profit 3rd Quarter 3rd Quarter 2014 2015 Change Sales and Revenues $ 13.5 Billion $ 11.0 Billion $ (2.5) Billion Profit Per Share $ 1.63 $ 0.62 $ (1.01) Profit Per Share $ 1.72 $ 0.75 $ (0.97) Excluding Restructuring Costs

2015 Outlook Today’s Outlook Update Sales and Revenues Top end about $48 Billion Profit Per Share About $3.70 Profit Per Share About $4.60 Excluding Restructuring Outlook from Second-Quarter Financial Release in July Sales and Revenues About $49 Billion Profit Per Share About $4.70 Profit Per Share About $5.00 Excluding Restructuring In our September 24 release on restructuring, we updated the 2015 outlook for Sales and Revenues to about $48 billion. Updated profit outlook reflects: Lower sales and revenues than expected in July. About $0.17 per share of currency translation and hedging losses from the third quarter. Additional cost reduction and lower incentive compensation. Significantly higher restructuring costs.

Preliminary Outlook for 2016 Sales & Revenues Expect 2016 to be down about 5% from 2015 4th consecutive down year Resource Industries expected to be down about 10% in 2016 but from a very low base. Construction Industries flat to down 5% from 2015. Energy & Transportation down 5% to 10% ... mostly oil & gas, much of that a result of a higher backlog at the start of 2015.

Sales & Revenues Trend – 2012 Peak to 2016 Estimate Down about $20 billion from the peak about 31%. Nearly 2/3 of the decline is from Resource Industries and mostly related to mining. About 10% of the decline is related to currency impacts from a stronger U.S. dollar. Difficult operating environment driven largely by declines in Resource Industries – our most profitable segment in 2012. $- $10 $20 $30 $40 $50 $60 $70 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 $Billions

Business Review – Key Industries Resource Industries (Mining) Slower growth in developing countries – China in particular – due to weakened commodity prices. Customers have sufficient supply of equipment and have dramatically lowered CAPEX. Order rates for our mining products have declined since 2012. Our sales of mining equipment are far below reasonable replacement levels and below the levels of the financial crisis in 2009. Cyclical, but an attractive business over the long term – substantial aftermarket, fits our business model, declining ore grades mean more material moved over the long term, essential to global growth. We have the broadest product line in the business. Order activity is not signaling improvement ... but, we have seen increasing machine utilization for trucks over the past 3 months.

Business Review – Key Industries Energy & Transportation (Oil & Gas) Oil oversupply from production resurgence in the United States. Worldwide demand growing, but supply continues to outpace demand. Decline in oil prices and investment is impacting Caterpillar most in well servicing and drilling. Substantial order backlog at the end of 2014 supported first-half 2015 sales. That’s behind us now, and second-half sales are lower. 2016 is expected to be more like the second half of 2015. Some decline expected in 2016 for turbines, but not as substantial as the impact on reciprocating engines used in drilling and well servicing – less than 10%. Caterpillar sales related to natural gas aren’t down as much as oil. Gas compression in our turbine business expected to remain strong in 2016 with a supportive backlog. Great long-term business, but cyclical. Substantial aftermarket with critical service requirements fits the Caterpillar business model. Urbanization and a growing middle class in the developing world will continue to increase global energy demand.

Business Review – Key Industries Energy & Transportation (Rail) We have been focused on growth and have built a substantial rail business over the past 10 years. We acquired Progress Rail and EMD as the cornerstones of our rail business. We’ve grown the business organically and through acquisition of smaller rail-related companies. We’ve improved and invested in the business lowered costs and improved quality. 2015 locomotive sales are lower following the 2014 peak. Our Tier IV locomotive is on track for mid-2016 availability, and we have orders. We think rail is a great long-term business. High barriers to entry, long-life products with significant aftermarket and support required. Rail is a cost effective efficient way to move freight, and we believe it has good long-term growth potential and opportunity for us to grow internationally.

Business Review – Key Industries Construction Industries North America – improvement in residential and non-residential construction this year but mostly offset by impact of oil-related construction decline. Latin America – region is weak in general, and our 2015 equipment sales in Brazil are ~60% below 2014. We expect Brazil to remain in recession in 2016. Europe/Africa/Middle East – Europe stable to positive, but CIS is very weak, and the Middle East is suffering from political unrest and low oil prices. Asia/Pacific – the region is weak generally, particularly in China where the industry is near 10 year lows ... and below replacement demand levels. Long term, we think construction has substantial room to grow across the globe – it’s regional but cyclical. All regions of the world are below prior peaks some, substantially. Substantial infrastructure needs virtually everywhere ... including the United States. Better infrastructure is necessary for global growth over the long term.

Operational Progress A tough business climate in our key industries but We’ve improved our machine market position every year since 2010. We’re managing costs to minimize the impact of lower volume. Our decremental operating profit pull through has been in our targeted range as sales have declined from the 2012 peak. Product quality has improved since 2010, and we’ve been on a 13-year safety improvement journey we are an industry leader in safety. Our balance sheet is strong ... ME&T debt-to-capital ratio is currently 37.4%, and we have $6 billion in cash. At the end of 2008, debt-to-capital was 57.5%, and we had less than $3 billion of cash.

A tough business climate in our key industries but ME&T operating cash flow has been strong 3 of our 4 best years in history have been since 2010. Since 2009, we’ve increased the quarterly dividend 83% and repurchased more than $8 billion of stock. The dividend is a priority for Caterpillar ... We’ve paid a quarterly dividend every quarter since 1933 and have increased the annual dividend every year for over 20 years. We did not reduce the dividend during the 2008 / 2009 financial crisis. Our captive finance company has a great business model and is healthy and strong. Key metrics are in line with long-term averages despite weakness in end markets over the past few years. Operational Progress

Taking Action We have and will continue to take action Given current industry weakness, we have sufficient and in some cases too much capacity. That said, our factories are modern, working on Lean and are well positioned to handle more volume with cyclical recovery when it comes. We expect CAPEX this year and in 2016 to be less than half of what it was in 2012. We have already implemented substantial restructuring – 10% of our total production square footage has been consolidated or closed. From the peak in 2012 our total workforce has declined more than 35,000. These actions have generated substantial cost reduction.

Taking Action We have … and will continue to take action Because of the extended downturn in sales … we announced substantial additional restructuring on September 24. We expect about $1.5 billion of annual cost reduction by 2018 with about $750 million of that expected in 2016. Reduction of 4,000-5,000 of our non-production workforce before the end of 2016 with most of that in the fourth quarter of 2015. Workforce reduction of about 10,000 by the end of 2018. About 20 additional facilities consolidated or closed by 2018.

Taking Action for the Future – Lean Journey We are taking action focused on the long term Cost Gross Margin as a Percent of Sales Safety Recordable Injury Frequency Down $4.5 billion from peak, flat turns Built In Quality Defects per Machine Historical Best Great Tier IV Performance Caterpillar Inventory Dollars Improvement despite lower sales in mining and higher depreciation Historical best Industry leader 2010 2015 YTD 23.8% 24.4% 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 Sep 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 YTD

Taking Action for the Future We are taking action focused on the long term We’re executing Across the Table with our dealers ... to drive better performance between Caterpillar and our dealers ... better market position, service performance and value to our customers. We’re investing in technology and data analytics both internally and with external partners. It’s a priority even as we reduce costs across the company ... it’s critical for the future.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures We anticipate incurring significant restructuring costs in 2015. We believe it is important to separately quantify the profit per share impact of restructuring costs in order for our third-quarter 2015 results and the 2015 outlook to be meaningful to our readers. We have also provided third-quarter 2014 profit per share excluding restructuring costs comparable to the 2015 presentation. Reconciliation of profit per share excluding restructuring costs to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, profit per share, is as follows: . . 2014 . 2015 Previous 1 . Current 2 Profit per share .. . 1.63 $ 0.62 $ 4.70 $ 3.70 $ Per share restructuring costs . 0.09 $ 0.13 $ 0.30 $ 0.90 $ Profit per share excluding restructuring costs . . 1.72 $ 0.75 $ 5.00 $ 4.60 $ 1 2015 Outlook as of July 23, 2015.
