NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Cummins Inc. ("Cummins," "the Company," "the registrant," "we," "our," or "us") is a global power leader that designs, manufactures, distributes and services diesel and natural gas engines, electric power generation systems and engine-related component products, including filtration and emissions solutions, fuel systems, controls and air handling systems. We were founded in 1919 as one of the first manufacturers of diesel engines and are headquartered in Columbus, Indiana. We sell our products to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), distributors and other customers worldwide. We serve our customers through a network of more than 500 company-owned and independent distributor locations and approximately 5,200 dealer locations in more than 190 countries and territories.

NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the presentation of the current period condensed financial statements.

Our reporting period ends on the Sunday closest to the last day of the quarterly calendar period. The ~~first~~second quarter of 2008 and 2007 ended on ~~March 30,~~June 29, and ~~April~~July 1, respectively. The interim periods for both 2008 and 2007 contain 13 weeks. Our fiscal year ends on December 31, regardless of the day of the week on which December 31 falls.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Significant estimates and assumptions in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements require the exercise of judgment and are used for, but not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, estimates of future cash flows and other assumptions associated with goodwill and long-lived asset impairment tests, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, warranty programs, determination of discount and other rate assumptions for pension and other postretirement benefit expenses, income taxes and deferred tax valuation allowances and contingencies. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be different from these estimates.

Comprehensive income is comprised of net income, as well as adjustments for foreign currency translation, marketable securities, derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges and pension and other postretirement defined benefits. Total comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 29, 2008, was $272 million and $503 million, respectively. Total comprehensive income for the three and six months ended July 1, 2007, was $254 million and $410 million, respectively.

You should read these interim condensed financial statements in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. Our interim period financial results for the three and six month interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. The year end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

NOTE 3. RECENTLY ADOPTED AND RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In September 2006, the ~~FASB~~Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ~~SFAS~~Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 157, ~~“Fair~~"Fair Value ~~Measurements”~~Measurements" (SFAS 157), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The adoption of SFAS 157, effective January 1, 2008, did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 9 for further information regarding the adoption of this standard.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Effective

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), ~~“Business Combinations”~~"Business Combinations" (SFAS 141R), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. SFAS 141R makes significant changes to both the accounting and disclosures related to the acquisition of a business and could materially impact how we account for future business combination transactions. Because the standard will only impact transactions entered into after January 1, 2009, SFAS 141R will not impact our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, ~~“Noncontrolling~~"Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial ~~Statements”~~Statements" (SFAS 160), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. SFAS 160 amends Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements” (ARB 51) and establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the accounting for future ownership changes with respect to those subsidiaries. For Cummins, the most significant impact of the standard, at adoption, will be to reclass our minority interests ($~~313~~309 million at ~~March 30,~~June 29, 2008) to be included as a part of equity, which may affect certain performance and equity ratios. We are currently evaluating the potential additional impact that SFAS 160 may have on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, ~~“Disclosures~~"Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging ~~Activities”~~Activities" (SFAS 161), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. SFAS 161 amends SFAS No. 133, ~~“Accounting~~"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging ~~Activities”~~Activities" (SFAS 133) and requires enhanced disclosures about a company’s derivative and hedging activities. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS 161 to have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, but are still evaluating the additional disclosure requirements.

NOTE 4. PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

We sponsor both funded and unfunded domestic and foreign defined benefit pension and postretirement plans. Contributions to these plans ~~during~~for the ~~first~~ three ~~months of~~and six month periods ended June 29, 2008 and July 1, 2007, respectively were as follows:

	Three months ended				Three months ended					Six months ended
	March 30,		April 1,		June 29,		July 1,			June 29,		July 1,
	2008		2007		2008		2007			2008		2007

Defined contribution plans	$	10	$	11	$	8	$	4			18		15

We presently anticipate contributing $90 million to $100 million to our defined benefit pension plans in 2008 and paying approximately $60 million in claims and premiums for other postretirement benefits. The $90 million to $100 million of contributions for the full year includes voluntary contributions of $70 million to $75 million. These contributions and payments include payments from Company funds to either increase pension assets or to make direct payments to plan participants.

In September 2006, the FASB issued ~~Statement of Financial Accounting Standards~~SFAS No. 158, ~~“Employers’~~"Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)”" (SFAS 158). This statement requires balance sheet recognition of the overfunded or underfunded status of pension and postretirement benefit plans. In addition, the measurement date (the date at which plan assets and the benefit obligation are measured) is required to be the company’s fiscal year end. Except for the measurement date provisions, which are not effective until fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008, the provisions of SFAS 158 were effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006 and as such, were adopted during 2006.

We have adopted the measurement date provisions of SFAS 158 effective January 1, 2008. The majority of our pension and postretirement plans previously used a November 30 measurement date. All plans are now measured at December 31, consistent with the company’s fiscal year end. The non-cash effect of the adoption of the measurement date provisions of SFAS 158 decreased shareholders’ equity by approximately $7 million ($5 million after-tax) and increased long-term liabilities by approximately $10 million. There was no effect on our results of operations.

The components of net periodic pension and other postretirement benefit cost under our plans consisted of the following:

NOTE 7. PRODUCT WARRANTY LIABILITY

We charge the estimated costs of warranty programs, other than product recalls, to income at the time products are shipped to customers. We use historical claims experience to develop the estimated liability. We review product recall programs on a quarterly basis, and if necessary, record a liability when we commit to an action. We also sell extended warranty coverage on several engines. The following is a tabular reconciliation of the product warranty liability, including the deferred revenue related to our extended warranty coverage:

	Three months ended						Six months ended

The amount of deferred revenue related to extended coverage programs at ~~March 30,~~June 29, 2008, was ~~$188~~$200 million. At ~~March 30,~~June 29, 2008, we had ~~$18~~$16 million of receivables related to estimated supplier recoveries of which $8$7 million was included in ~~“Receivables, net”~~"Trade and ~~$10~~other" receivables and $9 million was included in ~~“Other assets”~~"Deferred income taxes and other assets" on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We are defendants in a number of pending legal actions, including actions related to the use and performance of our products. We carry product liability insurance covering significant claims for damages involving personal injury and property damage. We also establish reserves for these and other matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. In the event we are determined to be liable for damages in connection with actions and proceedings, the unaccrued portion of such liability is not expected to be material. We also have been identified as a potentially responsible party at several waste disposal sites under U.S. and related state environmental statutes and regulations and may have joint and several liability for any investigation and remediation costs incurred with respect to such sites. We deny liability with respect to many of these legal actions and environmental proceedings and are vigorously defending such actions or proceedings. We have established reserves that we believe are adequate for our expected future liability in such actions and proceedings where the nature and extent of such liability can be reasonably estimated based upon presently available information.

U.S. Distributor Guarantees

Since 1997 we have had an operating agreement with a financial institution that requires us to guarantee revolving loans, equipment term loans and leases, real property loans and letters of credit made by the financial institution to certain independent Cummins ~~and Onan~~ distributors in the United States, and to certain distributors in which we own an equity interest. In the first quarter of 2006, we amended, restated and simplified the terms of the operating agreement and removed the Cummins guarantee of distributor borrowings.

If any distributor defaults under its financing arrangement with the financial institution, and the maturity of amounts owed under the agreement is accelerated, then we are required to purchase from the financial institution at amounts approximating fair market value certain property, inventory and rental generator sets manufactured by Cummins that are secured by the distributor's financing agreement.

The operating agreement will continue to be in effect until February 7, 2009.

Residual Value Guarantees

We have various residual value guarantees on equipment leased under operating leases. The total amount of these residual value guarantees at ~~March 30,~~June 29, 2008, was $8 million.

Other Guarantees

In addition to the guarantees discussed above, from time to time we enter into other guarantee arrangements, including guarantees of non-U.S. distributor financing and other miscellaneous guarantees of third-party obligations. The maximum potential loss related to these other guarantees is $4 million at ~~March 30,~~June 29, 2008.

We have arrangements with certain suppliers that require us to purchase minimum volumes or be subject to monetary penalties. The penalty amounts are less than our purchase commitments and essentially allow the supplier to recover their tooling ~~costs.~~costs in most instances. At ~~March 30,~~June 29, 2008, if we were to stop purchasing from each of these suppliers, the amount of the penalty would be approximately ~~$18 million.~~$111 million, of which $93 million relates to a new contract executed in the second quarter of 2008. We entered into this contract with an engine parts supplier that would require a maximum penalty of $93 million from 2008 to 2013, if we did not meet our minimum purchase requirements for all six years. However, based on current forecasts, we do not anticipate paying any penalties under these contracts. This arrangement enables us to secure critical components important to our growth.

In July 2008, Beijing Foton Cummins Engine Company (BFCEC), a 50% owned entity accounted for under the equity method, entered into a line of credit agreement for borrowing capacity of up to $175 million (at current exchange rates). The line will be used primarily to fund equipment purchases for the new manufacturing plant. As a part of this transaction, we guaranteed 50% of any outstanding borrowings up to a maximum guarantee of $88 million (at current exchange rates). As BFCEC borrows funds under this line, we will record a liability for the fair value of this guarantee in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 45. The liability will be adjusted quarterly as the balance in the line of credit changes. The offset to this liability will be an increase in our investment in the joint venture.

Indemnifications

Periodically, we enter into various contractual arrangements where we agree to indemnify a third-party against certain types of losses. Common types of indemnifications include:

product liability and license, patent or trademark indemnifications,
asset sale agreements where we agree to indemnify the purchaser against future environmental exposures related to the asset sold, and
any contractual agreement where we agree to indemnify the counter-party for losses suffered as a result of a misrepresentation in the contract.

We regularly evaluate the probability of having to incur costs associated with these indemnifications and accrue for expected losses that are probable. Because the indemnifications are not related to specified known liabilities and due to their uncertain nature, we are unable to estimate the maximum amount of the potential loss associated with these indemnifications.

Joint Venture Commitments

As of ~~March 30,~~June 29, 2008, we have committed to invest ~~$21~~$3 million into existing joint ~~ventures and joint ventures that will be formed in 2008.~~ventures. It is expected that $2$1 million will be funded in 2008, while ~~$19~~$2 million will be funded in 2009.

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS ~~No.~~ 157, ~~“Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157),~~ which defines fair value, establishes a market-based framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is applicable whenever another accounting pronouncement requires or permits assets and liabilities to be measured at fair value. SFAS 157 does not expand or require any new fair value measures. SFAS 157 is effective for financial assets and financial liabilities for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FASB Staff Position (FSP) 157-2 ~~“Partial~~"Partial Deferral of the Effective Date of Statement No. ~~157”~~157" (FSP 157-2), deferred the effective date of SFAS ~~No.~~ 157 for most non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. We adopted this statement prospectively for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008, except for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities as deferred until January 1, 2009, by FSP 157-2. SFAS 157 does not require retroactive restatement of prior periods. The adoption of SFAS 157 did not materially impact our consolidated financial statements.

As defined in SFAS 157, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). We utilize market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. We primarily apply the market approach for recurring fair value measurements and utilize the best available information. Accordingly, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The company is able to classify fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. SFAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined by SFAS 157 are as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, listed equities and publicly traded bonds.

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as over-the-counter forwards and options.

Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in ~~management’s~~management's best estimate of fair value. At each balance sheet date, the company performs an analysis of all instruments subject to SFAS 157 and includes in level 3 all of those whose fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs. At ~~March 30,~~June 29, 2008, we did not have any level 3 financial assets or liabilities.

The majority of the assets and liabilities we carry at fair value are available-for-sale (AFS) securities and derivatives. AFS securities are derived from level 1 or level 2 inputs. The predominance of market inputs are actively quoted and can be validated through external sources, including brokers, market transactions and third-party pricing services.

The fair value measurement of derivatives results primarily from level 2 inputs. Many of our derivative contracts are valued utilizing publicly available pricing data of contracts with similar terms. In other cases, the contracts are valued using current spot market data adjusted for the appropriate current forward curves provided by external financial institutions. We participate in commodity swap contracts, currency forward contracts, and interest rate swaps. We enter into hedging transactions with banking institutions that have strong credit ratings, and thus the credit risk associated with these contracts is not considered significant. For more discussion regarding our derivative instruments, see Note 18 ofto the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

The following table summarizes the fair value of our financial instruments at ~~March 30,~~June 29, 2008:

	Fair Value Measurements Using									Fair Value Measurements Using
	Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Total			Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Total

NOTE 10.   ACQUISITION OF BUSINESSES

During the first six months of 2008, we purchased a majority interest in two previously independent North American distributors in order to increase our ownership interests in key portions of the distribution channel. The acquisitions were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and resulted in an aggregate purchase price of $76 million which we funded with $54 million of borrowings and $22 million of cash. The assets of the acquired businesses were primarily accounts receivable, inventory and fixed assets. No goodwill was generated from either transaction. During the first three months of 2007, we purchased the remaining interest in a manufacturing joint venture and acquired ownership of an international independent distributor for approximately $20 million. We recorded goodwill of $13 million for these two transactions.

NOTE 11.   FLOOD DAMAGE

In June 2008, Columbus, Indiana experienced significant flooding which impacted some of our facilities. One manufacturing facility was partially flooded. Our technical center, which houses engineering staff and contains dynamometer test cells and labs, was more severely impacted by the event which caused temporary displacement of the engineering workforce and suspension of testing for approximately five weeks. Critical testing was transferred to other Cummins facilities and external suppliers to minimize the interruption.

We have insurance, subject to a deductible, which covers the physical damage to the facilities, costs of clean up and repair and business interruption that will limit the economic impact of this event to the company. In the second quarter of 2008, we recorded a charge of $6 million representing the insurance deductible for this event and we anticipate that all other costs will be reimbursed through our insurance coverage. The clean up costs are estimated to range from $45 million to $50 million and will be spent over the remainder of 2008. We estimate the replacement value of assets impacted was approximately $90 million and we anticipate that asset replacements will be reflected in capital spending over the next six quarters. Most of these assets were fully depreciated at the time of the flood.   Although this claim is significant we believe we have sufficient insurance coverage after this claim for any future events.

We are using our research and engineering facilities in other regions not impacted by the flood to continue our engineering and development activities. We have already resumed operations in our test cells and will secure additional testing capacity outside our facility at additional cost.

We are confident that our insurance coverage will limit the impact of this event.

NOTE 12. OPERATING SEGMENTS

Our reportable operating segments consist of the following: Engine, Power Generation, Components and Distribution. This reporting structure is organized according to the products and markets each segment serves. We use segment EBIT (defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes and minority interests) as the primary basis for the chief operating decision-maker to evaluate the performance of each operating segment.

A summary of operating results by segment for the three and six month periods is shown below:

NOTE 13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

New Revolving Credit Agreement

On June 30, 2008, we entered into a Three-Year Revolving Credit Agreement, (the "Credit Agreement"), with a syndicate of lenders and issuers named therein. The Credit Agreement provides a $1.1billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility"), the proceeds of which are to be used to provide working capital or for other general corporate purposes of Cummins.

The Credit Facility matures on June 30, 2011. The Credit Facility is unsecured and amounts payable under it will rank pro rata with all other unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness of Cummins. Borrowings under the Credit Facility will primarily be denominated in U.S. dollars. A portion of the Credit Facility, up to $200 million, is available for Letters of Credit denominated in U.S. dollars or Alternate Currencies. In addition, up to $200 million of the Revolving Credit Facility will be available in Pounds Sterling or Euros. A portion of the Credit Facility, up to $100 million, is available for swingline loans denominated in U.S. dollars. Loans will bear interest at (i) a base rate or (ii) a rate equal to LIBOR plus an applicable margin based on the credit ratings of Cummins outstanding senior unsecured long-term debt. Based on our current long-term debt ratings, the applicable margin on LIBOR loans will be 0.75% per annum. Loans may be prepaid without premium or penalty, subject to customary breakage costs.

The Credit Facility replaces a $650 million in aggregate principal amount of revolving credit facility (Former Credit Agreement) maintained by Cummins which was terminated effective June 30, 2008.

The Credit Agreement includes covenants substantially similar to those in the Former Credit Agreement, including, among others, (a) a leverage ratio, (b) fixed charge coverage ratio, (c) limitations on priority indebtedness, (d) limitations on our ability to consummate a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets and (e) limitations on our ability to change the nature of our business.

The obligation of Cummins to pay amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an “Event of Default” as defined in the Credit Agreement. Such Events of Default include, among others, (a) Cummins failure to pay the principal of, or interest on, borrowings under the Credit Facility, (b) any representation or warranty of Cummins in the Credit Agreement proving to be materially false or misleading, (c) Cummins breach of any of its covenants contained in the Credit Agreement, and (d) the bankruptcy or insolvency of Cummins.

Joint Venture Transaction

In July 2008, we entered into a transaction with two Fiat group companies to (1) sell our one-third interest in the European Engine Alliance (EEA) joint venture and simultaneously (2) purchase the remaining 50% interest in Consolidated Diesel Corporation (CDC). As a result, we now own 100% of CDC and no longer have an ownership interest in EEA. On a net basis, Cummins received approximately $4 million from the two transactions, subject to post-closing adjustments.

ORGANIZATION OF INFORMATION

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") was prepared to provide the reader with a view and perspective of our business through the eyes of management and should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the "Financial Statements" section of our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ~~AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS~~

We are a global power leader that designs, manufactures, distributes and services diesel and natural gas engines, electric power generation systems and engine-related component products, including filtration and exhaust aftertreatment, fuel systems, controls and air handling systems. We sell our products to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), distributors and other customers worldwide. We have long-standing relationships with many of the leading manufacturers in the markets we serve, including Chrysler LLC, Daimler AG, Volvo AB, PACCAR Inc., International Truck and Engine Corporation (Navistar International Corporation), CNH Global N.V., Komatsu, Scania AB, Ford Motor Company and Volkswagen. We serve our customers through a network of more than 500 company-owned and independent distributor locations and approximately 5,200 dealer locations in more than 190 countries and territories.

Our reportable operating segments consist of the following: Engine, Power Generation, Components and Distribution. This reporting structure is organized according to the products and markets each segment serves. This type of reporting structure allows management to focus its efforts on providing enhanced service to a wide range of customers. The Engine segment produces engines and parts for sale to customers in on-highway and various industrial markets. The engines are used in trucks of all sizes, buses and recreational vehicles, as well as various industrial applications including construction, mining, agriculture, marine, oil and gas, rail and military. The Power Generation segment is an integrated provider of power systems which sells engines, generator sets and alternators and rents power equipment for both standby and prime power uses. The Components segment includes sales of filtration products, exhaust aftertreatment systems, turbochargers and fuel systems. The Distribution segment includes wholly-owned and partially-owned distributorships engaged in wholesaling engines, generator sets, and service parts, as well as performing service and repair activities on our products and maintaining relationships with various OEMs throughout the world.

Our financial performance depends, in large part, on varying conditions in the markets we serve, particularly the on-highway, construction and general industrial markets. Demand in these markets tends to fluctuate in response to overall economic conditions and is particularly sensitive to changes in interest rate levels. Our sales may also be impacted by OEM inventory levels and production schedules and stoppages. Economic downturns in markets we serve generally result in reductions in sales and pricing of our products. As a worldwide business, our operations are also affected by political, economic and regulatory matters, including environmental and emissions standards, in the countries we serve. However, our geographic diversity and broad product and service offerings have helped limit the impact of any one industry or customer and the economy of any single country upon our consolidated results. In the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2008, softness in the ~~North American heavy-duty truck,~~ pick-up truck, recreational vehicle, and recreational marine markets ~~continued~~worsened and evidence of a downturn in the United States economy ~~began a downturn.~~became more evident in the second quarter. Despite these unfavorable conditions, we reported increased net sales and net income for the three and six month periods over the ~~prior year period.~~same periods in 2007 which represented the highest reported quarterly net sales and net income in our history. Approximately 54 percent of our 2007 sales came from countries other than the United States and that trend grew to 5759 percent in the first ~~quarter~~six months of ~~2008.~~2008, including 61 percent in the second quarter. The diversity of our business portfolio has contributed to the significant organic growth we have experienced over the past several years and is continuing into 2008.

The increase was expected and was driven by the mix of sales which includes a higher percentage of new products for which accrual rates are typically higher in the first eight quarters after product launch. The first quarter of 2008 includes $33 million of unfavorable change in estimates, approximately half of which is related to pre-2007 products.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses ~~increased in~~for the ~~first quarter of~~three and six months ended June 29, 2008, increased compared to the ~~first quarter of~~same periods in 2007, primarily due to ~~increased infrastructure investments, increased number of employees to provide for our growing business and~~ increased compensation and related expenses of ~~$20~~$13 million ~~which~~and $38 million, increased consulting expenses of $9 million and $27 million and the acquisition of a majority ownership interest in two previously independent North American distributors during the first six months of 2008.

Other Operating ~~Expense,~~Income (Expense), Net

Other operating income (expense) for the three months ended June 29, 2008, decreased from income in 2007 to zero in 2008 while other operating income (expense) for the six months ended June 29, 2008, decreased from income in 2007 to expense in 2008. The major components of other operating ~~expense~~income (expense) are royalty income, amortization of intangible assets and ~~loss~~gains and losses on sale of fixed assets. The decrease in other operating ~~expense in~~income for the ~~first quarter of~~three and six months ended June 29, 2008, compared to the ~~first quarter of~~same periods for 2007, was primarily due to a $5 million decrease in gains on the sale of assets for both periods in 2008 and an increase in the amortization of other intangibles of $3 million and $5 million for the three and six month periods of 2008, respectively. The decrease in other income for the six month period of 2008 was partially offset by an increase in royalty income ~~and a $2~~of $3 million ~~loss on the write off of assets in~~during the first quarter of ~~2007, which was partially offset by a $2 million increase in amortization of other intangibles and an increase of $1 million in royalty expenses.~~2008. Other fluctuations in other operating ~~expense~~income (expense) were not significant individually or in the aggregate.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 29, 2008, decreased compared to the same periods in 2007 due to lower average debt ~~balances in~~balances.

Flood Damage Expenses

In June 2008, Columbus, Indiana experienced significant flooding which impacted some of our facilities. One manufacturing facility was partially flooded. Our technical center, which houses engineering staff and contains dynamometer test cells and labs, was more severely impacted by the ~~first~~event which caused temporary displacement of the engineering workforce and suspension of testing for approximately five weeks. Critical testing was transferred to other Cummins facilities and external suppliers to minimize the interruption.

We have insurance, subject to a deductible, which covers the physical damage to the facilities, costs of clean up and repair and business interruption that will limit the economic impact of this event to the company. In the second quarter of 2008, ~~compared~~we recorded a charge of $6 million representing the insurance deductible for this event and we anticipate that all other costs will be reimbursed through our insurance coverage. The clean up costs are estimated to range from $45 million to $50 million and will be spent over the remainder of 2008. We estimate the replacement value of assets impacted was approximately $90 million and we anticipate that asset replacements will be reflected in capital spending over the next six quarters. Most of these assets were fully depreciated at the time of the flood. We will record an involuntary conversion gain for the difference between the insurance recovery of actual costs to replace the assets and the book value, which was approximately $8 million at the time of the flood. This gain will be recognized as the assets are replaced over the next six quarters, with the ~~first quarter~~majority recognized in the next four quarters. Although this claim is significant we believe we have sufficient insurance coverage after this claim for any future events.

We are using our research and engineering facilities in other regions not impacted by the flood to continue our engineering and development activities. We already resumed operations in our test cells and will secure additional testing capacity outside our facility at additional cost.

We are confident that our insurance coverage will limit the impact of ~~2007.~~

this event.

Other (Expense) Income, Net

Other (expense) income for the three and six months ended June 29, 2008, decreased from income in 2007 to expense in 2008. The major components of other (expense) income include foreign currency exchange gains and losses, bank charges and other miscellaneous income and expenses. The fluctuation in other (expense) income iswas due to foreign currency exchange losses of approximately $9$6 million inand $17 million for the ~~first quarter of~~three and six months ended June 29, 2008, compared to foreign currency exchange gains of $8$1 million inand $10 million for the ~~first quarter of~~same periods in 2007. The unfavorable impact was primarily due to a weaker U.S. dollar, particularly compared to the ~~Euro, and mark-to-market losses on derivative contracts.~~Euro. There were no individual fluctuations in the components of miscellaneous income and expenses that were significant.

Income Tax Expense

Our effective tax rate for the ~~first quarter of~~three and six months ended June 29, 2008, was 32 percent and 33 percent, respectively. The current quarter includes a favorable adjustment to reduce our previously estimated annual tax rate from 34 to 33 percent, which is less than the 35 percent U.S. income tax rate primarily due to lower tax rates on increased foreign earnings. Our effective tax rate for both the three and six months ended July 1, 2007, was 33 percent. This rate was less than the 35 percent U.S. income tax rate ~~primarily due to lower taxes on foreign earnings. Our effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2007 was 33 percent. This rate was lower than 35 percent~~ primarily due to research tax credits and lower taxes on foreign earnings. The effective tax rate for the remainder of the year is expected to approximate 3433 percent absent any discrete period activity.

OPERATING SEGMENT RESULTS

Our reportable operating segments consist of the following: Engine, Power Generation, Components and Distribution. This reporting structure is organized according to the products and markets each segment serves. We use segment EBIT (defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes and minority interests) as the primary basis for the chief operating decision-maker to evaluate the performance of each operating segment.

Sales

Engine segment sales increased infor the ~~first quarter of~~three and six months ended June 29, 2008, ~~compared to~~over the ~~first quarter of~~same periods in 2007, primarily due to an increase in our market share in the North American ~~market share over~~(includes the ~~first quarter of 2007~~Unites States and Canada and excludes Mexico) heavy-duty truck and medium-duty truck and bus markets, as well as strong demand in Latin American medium-duty truck, Mexican heavy-duty truck and international industrial markets. Segment sales were partially offset by a significant reduction in demand in light-duty automotive sales in North America. The increase in the North American heavy-duty and medium-duty truck markets was primarily due to weaker demand in the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2007 resulting from the 2006 pre-buy to replace trucks ahead of the 2007 emissions regulations ~~change, particularly~~change. The increase in Mexican heavy-duty sales was the result of pre-buy activity ahead of Mexico’s new July 1, 2008, emissions requirements. The medium-duty truck increase was mainly driven by strong economic conditions in Brazil while the increase in bus sales was driven by market share gains in the North American ~~heavy-duty and medium-duty truck markets.~~bus market. Total on-highway-related sales were 54 percent and 55 percent ~~of Engine segment sales during the first quarter of~~in 2008, compared ~~with 52~~to 57 percent ~~during~~and 55 percent in 2007 for the ~~first quarter of 2007.~~three and six month periods, respectively. Industrial markets were ~~mixed~~positive compared to the same period in 2007, with increased volumes in most markets, led by ~~government~~the international construction, mining and ~~agriculture~~commercial marine markets. The light-duty automotive decline was primarily due to the 64 percent and 45 percent decline in units sold to Chrysler during the three and six months ended June 29, 2008, over the same period in 2007, due to the deteriorating demand for light duty trucks in North America as the result of the softening U.S. economy and concerns over fuel prices. We do not expect a recovery in demand for light-duty trucks in North America in 2008.

Segment EBIT

Engine segment EBIT increased for the three months ended June 29, 2008, primarily due to a more favorable sales mix in the on-highway markets and improved engine and parts pricing which was partially offset by an increase in warranty expense. Engine segment EBIT increased in the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2008, compared to the ~~first quarter of~~same period in 2007, primarily due to higher engine volumes across most on-highway markets, the accompanying gross margin impact of higher absorption of fixed manufacturing costs, ~~as well as~~ improved ~~pricing.~~engine and parts pricing and more favorable sales mix in the on-highway markets. This was partially offset by an increase in warranty expense. Gross margin increased ~~$100~~$65 million, or 3519 percent, ~~quarter over quarter~~and $165 million, or 26 percent, and gross margin percentage improved by ~~1.3~~almost one percentage ~~points~~point for the three and six months ended June 29, 2008, as compared to the same ~~period~~periods in ~~2007.~~2007, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased ~~$21~~$12 million, or 169 percent, ~~quarter over quarter,~~and $33 million, or 12 percent; however, selling, general and administrative expenses improved as a percentage of sales by ~~0.5~~0.3 percentage ~~points.~~points and 0.4 percentage points for the three and six months ended June 29, 2008, as compared to the same periods in 2007, respectively. Research, development and engineering expenses increased ~~$18~~$19 million, or 3537 percent, ~~compared to the same quarter last year~~and $37 million, or 36 percent, and increased ~~slightly~~0.5 percentage points and 0.4 percentage points as a percentage of sales for the three and six months ended June 29, 2008, respectively, as compared to the ~~prior period.~~same periods in 2007, as a result of increased spending on emissions related programs.

~~Heavy-Duty Truck~~

The increase in sales to the heavy-duty truck market in the first quarter of 2008 was primarily driven by an increase in our North American market share over the first quarter of 2007, as well as weaker demand in 2007 from North American OEM’s as the result of the 2006 pre-buy to replace trucks ahead of the 2007 emissions regulations change. We also experienced modest growth in our international sales.

~~Medium-Duty Truck and Bus~~

The increase in medium-duty truck and bus revenues in the first quarter of 2008 was primarily due to an increase in our North American market share over the first quarter of 2007, as well as weaker demand in 2007 from North American OEM’s as the result of the 2006 pre-buy to replace trucks ahead of the 2007 emissions regulations change. International sales were strong in the first quarter of 2008, primarily due to growth in Brazil related to strong economic performance. The increase in overall bus sales is being driven by North American market share gains within the school bus market and strong international sales.

~~Light-Duty Automotive and RV~~

The decrease in light-duty automotive sales was primarily due to decreased demand from Chrysler related to the softening of the U.S. economy in the first quarter of 2008. First quarter Chrysler unit shipments decreased over last year by approximately 5,500 units, or 18 percent. Global engine shipments to recreational vehicle OEMs increased compared with 2007 as a result of decreased engine purchases in the first quarter of 2007 resulting from the 2007 change in emissions standards and current year market share gains.

~~Industrial~~

Industrial sales increased in the first quarter of 2008, primarily due to increased sales in many of our international businesses as well as increased government sales in North America. These increases were offset by decreases in most other markets in North America. A summary and discussion of changes in Industrial unit sales by market follows:

The total percentage of international shipments increased in the first quarter of 2008 to 58 percent compared to 53 percent in the first quarter of 2007. The overall change in the geographic sales mix was due to the continued strength of the international marine, construction, mining and agriculture markets. The international marine market is up due to strong demand for off-shore and inland waterway vessels and market share gains, while international construction demand is up due to global infrastructure development. The international mining market demand was up slightly as the strength in commodity prices continued to drive investment in mining capacity. North American construction and agriculture markets were down primarily as the result of a joint venture partner decision to source a newer platform out of its European facility.

~~Stationary Power~~

~~The increase in sales to stationary power markets is due to the increased intersegment sales to our~~ Power Generation ~~segment. These sales are eliminated in our~~ ~~Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income~~~~. See~~ ~~Power Generation~~ ~~for a discussion of the increase in sales.~~

Sales
Components segment sales increased infor the ~~first quarter of~~three and six months ended, June 29, 2008, compared to the ~~first quarter of~~same periods in 2007, primarily due to increased sales of ~~$89~~$53 million and $142 million in our turbocharger business, $22 million and ~~$54~~$36 million in our fuel systems business and $21 million and $75 million in our emission solutions business, ~~compared to the same period in 2007.~~respectively. The turbocharger business experienced strong growth in North America, Europe and Asia for the three and ~~benefited~~six month periods, partially due to pre-buy activity in advance of new Euro III emissions standards, which fueled domestic sales in China. The turbocharger business also had an $11 million benefit for the first six months of 2008 from the consolidation of a joint venture that we purchased in the ~~second~~first quarter of ~~2007 by $11 million.~~2007. Our fuel systems business experienced higher sales in North America and China. Our emission solutions business experienced strong sales in North America and Europe ~~including sales~~as the result of ~~new products to allow its customers to meet new on-highway emissions standards.~~North American share gains and expanding markets in both regions. Our filtration business experienced slight sales growth despite the sale of Universal Silencer and the discontinuance of a product line in 2007 which contributed a combined ~~$24~~$23 million and $47 million in sales in the ~~first quarter of 2007.~~three and six months ended July 1, 2007, respectively.
Segment EBIT
Components segment EBIT increased ~~during~~for the ~~first quarter of~~three and six months ended, June 29, 2008, compared to the ~~first quarter of~~same periods in 2007, primarily due to price realization, manufacturing efficiencies, and increased volumes ~~and improved gross margins~~ in most of our ~~turbocharger and filtration~~ businesses. Gross margin increased ~~$25~~$49 million, or 2745 percent, ~~in the first quarter compared to the same period in 2007,~~and $74 million, or 36 percent, and gross margin percentage increased ~~slightly compared to~~over four percentage points and two percentage points for the ~~same period in 2007.

Gross margins increased as the result of price realization, ~~and~~ manufacturing efficiencies, ~~in the first quarter of 2008~~improved product coverage and increased volumes in most of our businesses, however, these were partially offset by manufacturing inefficiencies in our emission solutions business, where management is starting to see improvement that should benefit future quarters.businesses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased ~~$11~~$8 million, or 2416 percent, and $19 million, or 20 percent, for the three and six months ended June 29, 2008, compared to the ~~first quarter of~~same periods in 2007, respectively, and remained flat as a percentage of ~~sales.~~sales for both periods. Research, development and engineering expenses increased $3$10 million, or 1571 percent, and $13 million, or 38 percent, for the three and six months ended June 29, 2008, compared to the ~~first quarter of~~same periods in 2007 ~~however improved slightly~~and increased one percentage point as a percentage of ~~sales.~~sales for the three month period and increased slightly for the six month period. Most of the increase was incurred in our turbo technologies and emission solutions businesses, which are the fastest growing businesses within the Components segment. The increased spending is focused on developing new products for Cummins and other OEMs to meet future emissions standards for developed and emerging markets. Engineering expenses in the same periods in 2007 were lower due to an unusually high level of customer funding during that quarter.

Sales
Distribution segment sales increased infor the ~~first quarter~~three and six months ended, June 29, 2008, as a result of ~~2008, compared to the first quarter of 2007, primarily due to~~ organic growth in ~~all regions. The~~Europe, the South Pacific, and the Middle East, higher sales ~~were led by increases in parts and service volumes, followed by engine volumes and power generation volumes. We also experienced sales growth of $37 million~~ from the acquisition of a majority ownership interest in atwo previously independent ~~distributor during~~distributors, and gains from foreign currency translation. Activity from the ~~first quarter~~acquired companies accounted for increases in sales of ~~2008~~$63 million and ~~favorable~~$100 million for the three and six month periods as compared to the same periods in 2007, respectively. Favorable impacts from foreign currency ~~translation.~~translation were $28 million and $53 million for the three and six month periods, as compared to the same periods of 2007, respectively. The higher sales were led by increases in power generation volumes, followed by parts and service and engine volumes.
Segment EBIT
Distribution segment EBIT improved for the three and six months ended, June 29, 2008, over the same periods in 2007, primarily due to increased ~~in the first quarter of 2008, compared to the first quarter of 2007,~~sales volumes for power generation, parts and service, and engines, however, ~~segment~~ EBIT decreased as a percentage of ~~sales.~~sales due to the accelerated amortization of certain assets associated with the businesses acquired in 2007 and 2008. Excluding the ~~distributor acquisition, segment~~impact of two new distributors consolidated during the year and one new North American joint venture, EBIT was 12.4 percent and 12.3 percent for the three and six month periods, respectively, and EBIT as a percentage of sales ~~was 12.4 percent.~~remained relatively flat for both periods. Gross margin increased by $51 million, or 65 percent, and $77 million, or 52 percent, for the three and six month periods, as compared to the same periods in 2007, respectively, and increased as a percentage of sales for the three month period by 0.9 percentage points and remained flat for the six month period as compared to the same periods in 2007. The increase in gross margins ~~increased~~was primarily due to ~~increased sales volumes in parts and service, power generation and engine; and an~~the increase in investee equity, royalty and interest income primarily attributable to a $7 million increase from our North American joint ventures. Gross margin in the first quarter of 2008 increased $17 million, or 25 percent, over the same period in 2007, as the result of increased sales volumes. ~~In addition, gross margin percentage decreased by nearly one percentage point over the first quarter of 2007.~~ Selling, general and administrative expenses increased ~~$10~~$31 million, or 1953 percent, ~~however~~and $49 million, or 44 percent for the three and six months ended June 29, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Management's Assessment of Liquidity
We believe our financial condition and liquidity ~~are strong.~~ remain strong despite the downturn in the U.S. economy over the past quarter. Our strong balance sheet and improved credit ratings enabled us to secure a new Three-Year Revolving Credit Facility at favorable terms.
We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate adequate cash to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. Cash provided by operations is our principal source of liquidity. ~~At March 30,~~A significant portion of our cash flows is generated outside the U.S. More than half of our cash and marketable securities at June 29, 2008, are denominated in foreign currencies. We manage our worldwide cash requirements considering available funds among the many subsidiaries through which we conduct our business and the cost effectiveness with which those funds can be accessed. The repatriation of cash balances from certain of our subsidiaries could have adverse tax consequences; however, those balances are generally available without legal restrictions to fund ordinary business operations at the local level. We have and will continue to transfer cash from those subsidiaries to us and to other international subsidiaries when it is cost effective to do so.
We believe our liquidity with cash and cash equivalents of ~~$446~~$522 million, marketable securities of ~~$108~~$107 million, ~~$615 million~~$1.1 billion available under our revolving credit facility, ~~$278~~$312 million, based on eligible receivables, available under our accounts receivable program and ~~$98~~$108 million available under international credit facilities together with our operating cash flows and borrowing capacity provide us with the financial flexibility needed to fund working capital, debt service obligations, capital expenditures, projected pension obligations, common stock repurchases, dividend payments and expansion in emerging markets. AsWhile we cannot forecast what global or U.S. markets will do, we do not anticipate that the current distress in these markets will significantly impact our results of ~~March 30, 2008, there were no amounts outstanding under~~operations, financial position or cash flows in the foreseeable future. Approximately 92 percent of our ~~revolving credit facility or~~pension plan assets are invested in highly liquid investments such as equity and fixed income securities. The remaining 8 percent of our ~~receivable sales program.~~
plan assets are invested in less liquid but market-valued investments, including real estate and private equity.

Working Capital Summary

We fund our working capital with cash from operations and short-term borrowings when necessary. Various assets and liabilities, including short-term debt, can fluctuate significantly from month to month depending on short-term liquidity needs. As a result, working capital is a prime focus of management attention.

Current assets increased ~~$317~~$597 million, primarily due to a ~~$226~~$379 million increase in receivables driven by the increase in net sales and a ~~$185~~$232 million increase in inventories as the businesses ~~ramp up~~prepare to meet increasing demand. These increases were partially offset by a ~~$131~~$55 million decline in cash and cash equivalents (see Cash Flows below).

Current liabilities increased ~~$151~~$225 million, primarily due to an increase in accounts ~~payables~~payable of ~~$191~~$197 million and increases in ~~accrued product warranty and~~ other accrued ~~liabilities~~expenses of ~~$10~~$144 million ~~and $105 million, respectively, all~~ due to business expansions. These increases were partially offset by a decline in accrued compensation, benefits and retirement costs of ~~$155~~$103 million and a decrease in the current portion of long-term debt and loans payable of $48 million.

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased ~~$150~~$250 million in the first ~~three~~six months of 2008, compared to the ~~first three months of~~same period in 2007. The improvement was primarily due to higher net income of $126 million, a ~~$116~~$97 million positive change associated with working capital ~~higher net income of $47 million~~ and ~~$44~~a $63 million decrease in pension contributions, partially offset by a ~~$38~~$33 million decrease in the deferred income tax provision. The major components of the change in working capital are as follows: a ~~$40~~$141 million ~~higher~~net increase in accrued expenses driven by increased warranty accruals and timing of various other expenses, a $34 million decrease in inventory, partially offset by a $29 million increase in receivables primarily as a result of ~~improved~~higher net sales, a $38 million increase in accounts payable due to increased costs around expansion and timing and a $117 million lower decrease in accrued expenses driven by increased sales of extended warranty contracts and timing of various other expenses.sales.
The funded status of our pension plans is dependent upon a variety of variables and assumptions including return on invested assets, market interest rates and levels of voluntary contributions to the plans. Better than expected investment returns in recent years and additional voluntary contributions have improved the funded status of all plans, helping to minimize future required funding. We continued making additional pension contributions by contributing ~~$17~~$39 million to our pension plans ~~during~~in the ~~quarter. Our qualified pension plans are currently over 100 percent funded.~~first six months of 2008. We anticipate making contributions of $90 million to $100 million to our pension plans in 2008 and paying approximately $60 million in claims and premiums for other postretirement benefits. The ~~$17~~$39 million of pension contributions in the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2008 included voluntary contributions of ~~$12~~$24 million. These contributions and payments include payments from Company funds to either increase pension plan assets or to make direct payments to plan participants.

Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased ~~$79~~$180 million in the first ~~three~~six months of 2008, compared to the first ~~three~~six months of 2007. The increase was primarily due to a ~~$42~~$93 million increase in capital expenditures, ~~a $17 million change in marketable securities and~~ higher investments in businesses of $9$56 million and higher investments in and advances to equity investees of $3$13 million.
Capital expenditures for the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2008 increased 8886 percent over the same period in 2007 to support our growth, and included investments to increase capacity and to fund development of our new products. Our investments in capacity improvements and development of new products are accelerating across all of our businesses. We continue to invest at least half of our capital in low-cost regions of the world to further leverage our opportunities for cost reduction and future growth opportunities. Capital expenditures for the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2008 were ~~$90~~$201 million. WeIn 2008, we expect capital expenditures to total approximately $550 million to $600 million. This spending excludes any assets that may need to be purchased as a result of the flood. We anticipate these expenditures will range from $50 million ~~in 2008.~~
to $60 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities decreased ~~$113~~$88 million in the first ~~three~~six months of 2008, compared to the first ~~three~~six months of 2007. The majority of the decrease in cash outflows was due to the ~~$54~~$73 million increase in proceeds from borrowings and a $14 million decrease in outflows related to borrowings and capital leases, primarily related to the payment of approximately $62 million of our $120 million 6.75% debentures ~~repaid~~ on February 15, 2007 and the $25 million term loan at Consolidated Diesel Company in the first quarter of 2008. An increase of $38 million in proceeds from borrowings and a $16 million increase in net borrowings under short-term credit agreements also contributed to the reduction in net cash used in financing activities.
In December 2007, the Board of Directors authorized the acquisition of up to $500 million of Cummins common stock. We began making purchases under the plan in March 2008 and have purchased ~~$11~~$45 million of stock as of ~~March 30,~~June 29, 2008. The share repurchase program, along with investments in our growth, are expected to be a significant use of our cash flows in 2008 and future years, however, total repurchases may vary quarter to quarter depending on other investing and financing activities, market conditions, or restrictions.
Our total debt was ~~$697~~$657 million as of ~~March 30,~~June 29, 2008, compared with ~~$695~~$666 million at ~~April~~July 1, 2007. Total debt as a percent of our total capital, including total long-term debt, was ~~16.2~~14.6 percent at ~~March 30,~~June 29, 2008, compared to ~~19.1~~17.4 percent at ~~April~~July 1, 2007.
~~Financial Covenants~~On July 8, 2008, the Board of Directors approved an increase in the quarterly cash dividend on our common stock from $0.125 per share to $0.175 per share. The dividend is payable on September 2, 2008, to shareholders of record on August 22, 2008.
On June 30, 2008, we entered into a Three-Year Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2008 (the “Credit Agreement”), with a syndicate of lenders and issuers named therein. The Credit ~~Rating~~
~~A number of our contractual obligations and financing agreements, such as our~~Agreement provides a $1.1 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), the proceeds of which are to be used to provide working capital or for other general corporate purposes of Cummins.
The Credit Facility matures on June 30, 2011. The Credit Facility is unsecured and amounts payable under it will rank pro rata with all other unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness of Cummins. Borrowings under the Credit Facility will primarily be denominated in U.S. dollars. A portion of the Credit Facility, up to $200 million, is available for Letters of Credit denominated in U.S. dollars or Alternate Currencies. In addition, up to $200 million of the Revolving Credit Facility will be available in Pounds Sterling or Euros.

OFF BALANCE SHEET FINANCING
A discussion of our off balance sheet financing arrangements may be found in Item 7 of our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes in this information since the filing of our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
A summary of our significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K which discusses accounting policies that we have selected from acceptable alternatives.
Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles that often require management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions regarding uncertainties that affect the reported amounts presented and disclosed in the financial statements. Our management reviews these estimates and assumptions based on historical experience, changes in business conditions and other relevant factors they believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. In any given reporting period, our actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used in preparing our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Critical accounting estimates are defined as follows: the estimates require management to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the estimates were made; different estimates reasonably could have been used; or if changes in the estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period and the change would have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. Our senior management has discussed the development and selection of our accounting policies, related accounting estimates and the disclosures set forth below with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. We believe our critical accounting estimates include those addressing the estimation of liabilities for warranty programs, accounting for income taxes, pension benefits and annual assessment of recoverability of goodwill. A discussion of these critical accounting estimates may be found in the "Management's Discussion and Analysis" section of our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K under the caption "APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES." Within the context of these critical accounting estimates, we are not currently aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances that would result in different policies or estimates being reported in the first ~~three~~six months of 2008.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
A discussion of quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk may be found in Item 7A of our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes in this information since the filing of our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
~~a.)~~   Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the ~~Company's~~Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the ~~Company's~~Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the ~~Company's~~Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the ~~SEC's~~SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
~~b.)~~   Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in the ~~Company's~~Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended ~~March 30,~~June 29, 2008, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the ~~Company's~~Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings
We are at any one time party to a number of lawsuits or subject to claims arising out of the ordinary course of our business, including actions related to product liability, patent, trademark or other intellectual property infringement, contractual liability, workplace safety and environmental claims and cases, some of which involve claims for substantial damages. We and our subsidiaries are currently defendants in a number of pending legal actions, including actions related to use and performance of our products. While we carry product liability insurance covering significant claims for damages involving personal injury and property damage, we cannot assure you that such insurance would be adequate to cover the costs associated with a judgment against us with respect to these claims. We also establish reserves for matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. We have also been identified as a potentially responsible party at several waste disposal sites under federal and state environmental statutes, as more fully described in Item 1 of our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K under "Environmental Compliance-Other Environmental Statutes and Regulations." We deny liability with respect to many of these legal actions and environmental proceedings and are vigorously defending such actions or proceedings. While we believe we have established adequate accruals for our expected future liability with respect to our pending legal actions and proceedings, we cannot assure you that our liability with respect to any such action or proceeding would not exceed our established accruals. Further, we cannot assure that litigation having a material adverse affect on our financial condition will not arise in the future. The information in Item 1 "Other Environmental Statutes and Regulations" referred to above should be read in conjunction with this disclosure. See also Note 13, "Commitments and Contingencies" of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There has been no material change in this information since the filing of our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to other information set forth in this report, you should consider other risk factors discussed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors Relating to our Business" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K or the Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements in this Quarterly Report are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently judge to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.

(1) Shares purchased represent shares under the 2007 Board authorized repurchase program (for up to $500 million of Cummins common shares) and the Key Employee Stock Investment Plan established in 1969 (there is no maximum repurchase limitation in this plan).
(2) These values reflect shares held in loan status for our Key Employee Stock Investment Plan. The $500 million repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors in 2007 does not limit the number of shares that may be purchased and was excluded from this column.
In December 2007, the Board of Directors authorized the acquisition of up to $500 million worth of Cummins common stock in addition to what had been acquired under previous authorizations.
During the ~~first~~second quarter of 2008, we repurchased no7,810 shares from employees in connection with the Key Employee Stock Investment Plan which allows certain employees, other than officers, to purchase shares of common stock on an installment basis up to an established credit limit. Loans are issued for five-year terms at a fixed interest rate established at the date of purchase and may be refinanced after its initial five-year period for an additional five-year period. Participants must hold shares for a minimum of six months from date of purchase and after shares are sold must wait six months before another share purchase may be made. There is no maximum amount of shares that we may purchase under this plan.
During the ~~first~~second quarter of 2008, we issued ~~210~~3,348 shares of restricted stock as compensation to our non-employee directors, all of whom are accredited investors. These shares were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the ~~“Securities Act”~~"Securities Act") pursuant to the exemption from the registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.
According to our bylaws, we are not subject to the provisions of the Indiana Control Share Act. However, we are governed by certain other laws of the State of Indiana applicable to transactions involving a potential change of control of the company.
ITEM 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
The Company held its annual meeting of security holders on May 13, 2008. There were 203,215,953 shares of common stock entitled to vote at the meeting and a total of 178,021,423, or 87.6 percent, were represented at the meeting. Security holders voted on the following proposals:

Brokers who did not receive instructions were entitled to vote on the election of directors. Under applicable Indiana law, a broker non-vote had no effect on the outcome of the election of directors.
