Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


1.	Description of Business

TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. (also referred to herein as the “Company”) is among the world’s largest and most diversified suppliers of automotive systems, modules and components to global automotive original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and related aftermarkets. The Company conducts substantially all of its operations through subsidiaries. These operations primarily encompass the design, manufacture and sale of active and passive safety related products. Active safety related products principally refer to vehicle dynamic controls (primarily braking and steering), and passive safety related products principally refer to occupant restraints (primarily air bags and seat belts) and safety electronics (electronic control units and crash and occupant weight sensors). The Company is primarily a “Tier 1” supplier (a supplier which sells to OEMs). In 2007, approximately 86% of the Company’s end-customer sales were to major OEMs. In 2007, approximately 57% of our sales were in Europe, 30% were in North America, 9% were in Asia, and 4% were in the rest of the world.


2.	Basis of Presentation

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report onForm 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 21, 2008. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. The Company has revised its consolidated statements of earnings for the three and six months ended June 29, 2007 to reclassify certain amounts previously reported within administrative and selling expenses to cost of sales. The Company has also reclassified certain items to trade accounts payable from other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2007.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. These financial statements include all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal, recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 27, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2008.

The Company follows a fiscal calendar that ends on December 31. However, each fiscal quarter has three periods consisting of one five week period and two four week periods. Each quarterly period ends on a Friday, with the possible exception of the final quarter of the year, which always ends on December 31.

Earnings per Share. Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net earnings by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the weighted average impact of all potentially dilutive securities from the date of issuance. Actual weighted average shares outstanding used in calculating earnings per share were:


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 27,		June 29,		June 27,		June 29,
	2008		2007		2008		2007

Weighted average shares outstanding		101.1		99.5		100.9		99.0
Effect of dilutive securities		1.5		3.9		1.4		3.5

Diluted shares outstanding		102.6		103.4		102.3		102.5

Warranties. Product warranty liabilities are recorded based upon management estimates including factors such as the written agreement with the customer, the length of the warranty period, the historical performance of the product and likely changes in performance of newer products and the mix and volume of products sold. Product warranty liabilities are reviewed on a regular basis and adjusted to reflect actual experience.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In June 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”)EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities.” This FSP provides that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of basic earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method described in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” All prior period earnings per share data presented shall be adjusted retrospectively to conform with the provisions of this FSP. This FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is prohibited. This FSP is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” SFAS No. 162 identifies a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with GAAP. SFAS No. 162 is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” This standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2008, the FASB issued FSPFAS 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets.” FSPFAS 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” This FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The guidance contained in this FSP for determining the useful life of a recognized intangible asset shall be applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after the effective date. However, the disclosure requirements ofFSP 142-3 must be applied prospectively to all intangible assets

TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) — (Continued)

recognized in the Company’s financial statements as of the effective date. The adoption of FSPFAS 142-3 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — an Amendment of FASB Statement 133.” SFAS No. 161 enhances derivative and hedging activity disclosures pertaining to: (a) how derivative instruments are used; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect financial performance and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company anticipates that the adoption of SFAS No. 161 will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an Amendment of ARB No. 51.” SFAS No. 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest (also known as minority interest) in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This standard requires the recognition of a noncontrolling interest as equity, while income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net income of the parent. Furthermore, changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial interest, while the parent recognizes a gain or loss when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company is currently assessing the effects of SFAS No. 160 and has not yet determined its impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations.” SFAS No. 141(R) requires the recognition of all the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date fair value with limited exceptions. SFAS No. 141(R) will change the accounting treatment for certain specific items and require that acquisition costs and restructuring costs associated with a business combination be expensed. In addition, noncontrolling interests and in-process research and development will be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value at the acquisition date. SFAS No. 141(R) shall be applied prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company is currently assessing the effects of SFAS No. 141(R) and has not yet determined the associated impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of SFAS No. 115.” SFAS No. 159 permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates and report unrealized gains and losses on the items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2008, and the Company does not currently intend to elect to re-measure any of its existing financial assets or financial liabilities under the provisions of SFAS No. 159. The Company also does not currently intend to apply the provisions of SFAS No. 159 to any other financial instruments, which includes firm commitments.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Company adopted SFAS No. 157, effective January 1, 2008, for financial assets and financial liabilities and other items recognized or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis. See Note 9. In February 2008, the FASB issued FSPFAS 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157.” This FSP delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). The effective date for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities has been delayed by one year to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has delayed recognizing the fair value of its nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities within the scope of SFAS No. 157 until January 1, 2009 as allowed by FSPFAS 157-2. The Company has not completed its analysis of the potential

During the six months ended June 27, 2008, the Company completed an acquisition in its Chassis Systems segment which was not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In conjunction with this acquisition, the Company recorded a customer relationship intangible asset of approximately $19 million.

6.	Accounts Receivable Securitization

United States Facility. The United States receivables facility, as amended (the “Receivables Facility”), extends until December 2009 and provides up to $209 million in funding from commercial paper conduits sponsored by commercial lenders, based on availability of eligible receivables and other customary factors. As of June 27, 2008, based on the terms of the Receivables Facility, approximately $219 million of the Company’s reported accounts receivable were considered eligible to support borrowings under the Receivables Facility, of which approximately $163 million was available for funding. The Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Receivables Facility as of June 27, 2008 and December 31, 2007.

Other Receivables Facilities. In addition to the Receivables Facility described above, certain of the Company’s European subsidiaries have entered into receivables financing arrangements. The Company has up to €75 million available until January 2009 through an arrangement involving a wholly-owned special purpose vehicle, which purchases trade receivables from its German affiliates and sells those trade receivables to a German bank. In April 2008, the Company replaced its existing £25 million receivables financing arrangement in the United Kingdom involving a wholly-owned special purpose vehicle, with a new receivables financing arrangement that provides for the sale of trade receivables from the Company’s United Kingdom affiliates directly to a United Kingdom bank. It has availability of up to £25 million through April 2009. The Company has a factoring arrangement in France which provides for availability of up to €80 million until July 2009. This arrangement involves a wholly-owned special purpose vehicle, which purchases trade receivables from its French affiliates and sells those trade receivables to a French bank. All European arrangements are renewable for one year at the end of

TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) — (Continued)

their respective terms, if not terminated. As of June 27, 2008, approximately €130 million and £25 million were available for funding under the Company’s European receivables facilities. There were no outstanding borrowings under any of these facilities as of June 27, 2008 or December 31, 2007.


7.	Income Taxes

Under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No, 28. “Interim Financial Reporting”, the Company is required to adjust its effective tax rate each quarter to be consistent with the estimated annual effective tax rate. The Company is also required to record the tax impact of certain unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, in the interim period in which they occur. In addition, jurisdictions with a projected loss for the year where no tax benefit can be recognized are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate. The impact of such an exclusion could result in a higher or lower effective tax rate during a particular quarter, based upon mix and timing of actual earnings versus annual projections.

Income tax expense for the three months ended June 27, 2008 was $56 million on pre-tax earnings of $183 million and income tax expense for the six months ended June 27, 2008 was $103 million on pre-tax earnings of $324 million. Income tax expense for the three months ended June 29, 2007 was $45 million on pre-tax earnings of $142 million and did not include a tax benefit related to the $8 million loss on retirement of debt, while income tax expense for the six months ended June 29, 2007 was $98 million on pre-tax earnings of $109 million and did not include a tax benefit related to the $155 million loss on retirement of debt. As of June 27, 2008, the income tax rate varies from the United States statutory income tax rate primarily due to results in the United States and certain foreign jurisdictions that are currently in a valuation allowance position for which a corresponding income tax expense or benefit is not recognized, partially offset by favorable foreign tax rates, holidays, and credits.


8.	Pension Plans and Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions

The Company adopted the measurement-date provisions of SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans — an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R),” effective January 1, 2008 using the one-measurement approach. As a result, the Company changed the measurement date for its pension and other postretirement plans from October 31 to its year end date of December 31. Under the one-measurement approach, net periodic benefit cost of the Company for the period between October 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008 is being allocated proportionately between amounts recognized as an adjustment of retained earnings at January 1, 2008 and net periodic benefit cost for the year ending December 31, 2008. The Company recorded an adjustment which increased retained earnings by approximately $3 million, net of tax, in relation to this allocation. Other changes in the fair value of plan assets and benefit obligations (for example, gains or losses) between October 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008, will be recognized in accumulated other comprehensive earnings on December 31, 2008.

Senior Notes and Senior Subordinated Notes

On March 12, 2007, the Company commenced tender offers to repurchase TRW Automotive Inc.’s outstanding 93/8% Senior Notes and 101/8% Senior Notes in original principal amounts of $925 million and €200 million, respectively, each due 2013, and 11% Senior Subordinated Notes and 113/4% Senior Subordinated Notes in original principal amounts of $300 million and €125 million, respectively, each due 2013 (collectively, the “Old Notes”).

On March 26, 2007, the Company completed the issuance by TRW Automotive Inc. of 7% Senior Notes and 63/8% Senior Notes, each due 2014, in principal amounts of $500 million and €275 million, respectively, and 71/4% Senior Notes due 2017 in the principal amount of $600 million (collectively, the “New Senior Notes”) in a private offering. Proceeds from the issuance totaled approximately $1,465 million.

On March 26, 2007, the Company paid cash consideration of $1,386 million, including a consent payment, to holders who had tendered their Old Notes and delivered their consents on or before March 23, 2007 (the “Consent Date”) and amended the indentures. In conjunction with the repurchase of tendered Old Notes, the Company recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $147 million in the first quarter of 2007.

On April 4, 2007, the Company increased the cash consideration paid for Old Notes tendered after the Consent Date, but on or before April 18, 2007 (the “Tender Expiration Date”), to an amount equal to the cash consideration paid to holders that tendered prior to the Consent Date. On April 18, 2007, the Company repurchased the Old Notes tendered after the Consent Date for $10 million and recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $1 million for redemption premiums paid. As of the Tender Expiration Date, a total of approximately 99% of the Old Notes had been tendered. Accordingly, only $19 million of the principal amount of the Old Notes remained outstanding at December 31, 2007. Interest was payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 for the Old Notes that remained outstanding after the Tender Expiration Date. The Old Notes had a maturity date of February 15, 2013 and were redeemable at a specified premium beginning February 15, 2008.

On February 15, 2008, the Company redeemed all of its then remaining Old Notes for $20 million and recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $1 million.

TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) — (Continued)

On March 13, 2008, the Company entered into a transaction to repurchase $12 million in principal amount of the 7% Senior Notes outstanding and recorded a gain on retirement of debt of $1 million. The repurchased notes were retired upon settlement on March 18, 2008.

Credit Facilities

Senior Secured Credit Facilities. On May 9, 2007, the Company entered into its Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with the lenders party thereto. The amended and restated credit agreement provides for $2.5 billion in senior secured credit facilities, consisting of (i) a5-year $1.4 billion Revolving Credit Facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), (ii) a6-year $600.0 million Term LoanA-1 Facility (the “Term LoanA-1”) and (iii) a 6.75-year $500.0 million Term Loan B-1 Facility (the “Term Loan B-1”; combined with the Revolving Credit Facility and Term LoanA-1, the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). On May 9, 2007, the entire principal on the Term LoanA-1 and the Term Loan B-1 were funded and the Company drew down $461 million of the Revolving Credit Facility. These proceeds, together with approximately $15.6 million of available cash on hand, were used to refinance $2.5 billion of existing senior secured credit facilities by repaying approximately $1,561 million of existing senior secured credit facilities (consisting of Term Loan A in the amount of approximately $385 million, Term Loan B in the amount of approximately $587 million, Term Loan B-2 in the amount of approximately $296 million and Term Loan E in the amount of approximately $293 million) and to pay interest along with certain fees and expenses related to the refinancing. In conjunction with the May 9, 2007 refinancing, the Company capitalized $6 million of deferred debt issuance costs and recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $7 million related to the write-off of debt issuance costs associated with the former revolving facility and the former syndicated term loans.

Other Borrowings

In January 2008, the Company entered into a series of interest rate swap agreements with a total notional value of $300 million to hedge the variability of interest payments associated with its variable-rate term debt. The swap agreements mature in January 2010. Since the interest rate swaps hedge the variability of interest payments on variable rate debt with the same terms, these swaps qualify for cash flow hedge accounting treatment. As of June 27, 2008, the Company recorded an obligation of approximately $1 million related to these interest rate swaps along with a corresponding reduction in other comprehensive income. Ineffectiveness from the interest rate swaps recorded to other income in the consolidated statement of earnings was insignificant.

In February 2007, the Company paid $12 million to unwind interest rate swap agreements, which were utilized to effectively change a fixed rate debt obligation into a floating rate obligation, with a notional value of $500 million. In conjunction with the repurchase of the Old Notes, an $11 million adjustment to the value of the corresponding debt was immediately written off to loss on retirement of debt. In conjunction with the May 9, 2007 refinancing of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the Company reclassified approximately $1 million remaining in accumulated other comprehensive earnings to loss on retirement of debt relating to these interest rate swaps.

Core Trust Purchasing Group. In the first quarter of 2006, the Company entered into a five-year participation agreement (“participation agreement”) with Core Trust Purchasing Group, formerly named Cornerstone Purchasing Group LLC (“CPG”) designating CPG as exclusive agent for the purchase of certain indirect products and services. CPG is a “group purchasing organization” which secures from vendors pricing terms for goods and services that are believed to be more favorable than participants could obtain for themselves on an individual basis. Under the participation agreement the Company must purchase 80% of the requirements of its participating locations for the specified products and services through CPG. In connection with purchases by its participants (including the Company), CPG receives a commission from the vendor in respect of purchases. Although CPG is not affiliated with Blackstone, in consideration for Blackstone’s facilitating the Company’s participation in CPG and monitoring the services CPG provides to the Company, CPG remits a portion of the commissions received from vendors in respect of purchases by the Company under the participation agreement to an affiliate of Blackstone. The affiliate of Blackstone received de minimis fees from CPG for each of the three and six months ended June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007 in respect of Company purchases.

16.	Contingencies

Various claims, lawsuits and administrative proceedings are pending or threatened against the Company or its subsidiaries, covering a wide range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of the Company’s business activities with respect to commercial, patent, product liability, environmental and occupational safety and health law matters. In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries are conducting a number of environmental investigations and remedial actions at current and former locations of certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. Along with other companies, certain subsidiaries of the Company have been named potentially responsible parties for certain waste management sites. Each of these matters is subject to various uncertainties, and some of these matters may be resolved unfavorably with respect to the Company or the relevant subsidiary. A reserve estimate for each environmental matter is established using standard engineering cost estimating techniques on an undiscounted basis. In the determination of such costs, consideration is given to the professional judgment of Company environmental engineers, in consultation with outside environmental specialists, when necessary. At multi-party sites, the reserve estimate also reflects the expected allocation of total project costs among the various potentially responsible parties.

As of June 27, 2008, the Company had reserves for environmental matters of $52 million. In addition, the Company has established a receivable from Northrop for a portion of this environmental liability as a result of indemnification provided for in the Master Purchase Agreement relating to the Acquisition. The Company believes any liability that may result from the resolution of environmental matters for which sufficient information is available to support these cost estimates will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, the Company cannot predict the effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows, of expenditures for aspects of certain matters for which there is insufficient information. In addition, the Company cannot predict the effect of compliance with environmental laws and regulations with respect to unknown environmental matters on the Company’s financial position or results of operations or cash flows or the possible effect of compliance with environmental requirements imposed in the future.

The Company faces an inherent business risk of exposure to product liability, recall and warranty claims in the event that its products actually or allegedly fail to perform as expected or the use of its products results, or is alleged to result, in bodily injuryand/or property damage. Accordingly, the Company could experience material warranty, recall or product liability losses in the future. In addition, the Company’s costs to defend the product liability claims have increased in recent years.

While certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have been subject in recent years to asbestos-related claims, management believes that such claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In general, these claims seek damages for illnesses alleged to have resulted from exposure to asbestos used in certain components sold by the Company’s subsidiaries. Management believes that the majority of the claimants were assembly workers at the major U.S. automobile manufacturers. The vast majority of these claims name as defendants numerous manufacturers and suppliers of a wide variety of products allegedly containing asbestos. Management believes that, to the extent any of the products sold by the Company’s subsidiaries and at issue in these cases contained asbestos, the asbestos was encapsulated. Based upon several years of experience with such claims, management believes that only a small proportion of the claimants has or will ever develop any asbestos-related illness.

Neither settlement costs in connection with asbestos claims nor annual legal fees to defend these claims have been material in the past. These claims are strongly disputed by the Company and it has been its policy to defend against them aggressively. Many of these cases have been dismissed without any payment whatsoever. Moreover, there is significant insurance coverage with solvent carriers with respect to these claims. However, while costs to defend and settle these claims in the past have not been material, there can be no assurances that this will remain so in the future.

Management believes that the ultimate resolution of the foregoing matters will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.


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

The following should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report onForm 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 21, 2008, and the other information included herein.

Our sales for the three months ended June 27, 2008 were $4.4 billion, which represents an increase of 18.4% over the second quarter of 2007. The increase in sales of $692 million was driven largely by favorable foreign currency exchange rates along with a higher level of lower margin module sales and higher production volumes in Europe and China, partially offset by a continued decline in production volumes in North America and price reductions provided to customers. Operating income for the second quarter of 2008 was $224 million compared to $205 million for the prior year period. The increase in operating income of $19 million was primarily driven by increased production volumes, savings generated from cost reductions and efficiency programs, including reductions in pension and postretirement related costs, and a net insurance recovery of $14 million related to prior year business disruption at one of our South American facilities. These favorable items were partially offset by price reductions provided to customers, higher commodity prices, less advantageous product mix and increased restructuring and asset impairment expenses.

Net earnings for the three months ended June 27, 2008 were $127 million as compared to $97 million for the prior year period. Included in net earnings for the three months ended June 29, 2007 is a loss on retirement of debt of $8 million. Reduced interest expense due to lower interest rates on variable rate debt also contributed to the increase in net earnings for the three months ended June 27, 2008 compared to the similar period in 2007.

Our sales for the six months ended June 27, 2008 were $8.6 billion, which represents an increase of 17.3% over the six months ended June 29, 2007. The increase in sales of $1,269 million was driven primarily by favorable foreign currency exchange rates along with a higher level of lower margin module sales and higher production volumes in overseas markets, partially offset by a continued decline in production volumes in North America and price reductions provided to customers. Operating income for the first half of 2008 was $412 million compared to $380 million for the prior year period. The increase in operating income of $32 million was driven by increased production volumes, savings generated from cost reductions and efficiency programs, including reductions in pension and postretirement related costs, and a net insurance recovery of $14 million related to prior year business disruption at one of our South American facilities. These favorable items were partially offset by price reductions provided to customers, higher commodity prices, less advantageous product mix and increased restructuring and asset impairment expenses.

Net earnings for the six months ended June 27, 2008 were $221 million as compared to $11 million for the six months ended June 29, 2007. Included in net earnings for the six months ended June 29, 2007 is a loss on retirement of debt of $155 million, consisting of $148 million related to the repurchase of substantially all of our

then-outstanding senior notes and senior subordinated notes and $7 million related to refinancing of our previously existing senior secured credit facilities. Reduced interest expense due to the debt refinancing and lower interest rates also contributed to the increase in net earnings for the first half of 2008 compared to the similar period in 2007.

Recent Trends and Market Conditions

The automotive and automotive supply industries continued to experience unfavorable developments during the second quarter and first six months of 2008, particularly in North America. These trends include:

Production Levels and Product Mix:

In recent years and continuing into 2008, Ford Motor Company, General Motors Corporation and Chrysler LLC (the “Detroit Three”) have seen a steady decline in their market share for vehicle sales in North America, with Asian OEMs increasing their share in this market. Although we have business with the Asian OEMs, our customer base in North America is more heavily weighted toward the Detroit Three. Declining market share and inherent legacy issues with the Detroit Three have led to recent, unprecedented production cuts and permanent capacity reductions. During the first six months of 2008, the Detroit Three North American production levels declined approximately 18% compared to the same period in 2007.

In the U.S., overall negative economic conditions, including downturns in the housing and mortgage markets, energy and food inflation, and a weakening job market, have led to slowed growth. Such conditions have dampened the sentiment of consumers, who have delayed purchases of durable consumer goods (such as automobiles) as a result. Additionally, fuel price increases and volatility have continued to concern consumers. As a result, a migration continues in the North American market away from sport utility vehicles, light trucks and heavy-duty pickup trucks to more fuel-efficient passenger cars. Sport utility and light- and heavy-duty truck platforms tend to be higher margin products for OEMs and suppliers than car platforms. While this change has negatively impacted the mix of our product sales, we provide content for both passenger car and sport utility/light truck platforms and therefore the effect on the Company is somewhat, but not fully, mitigated.

In order to address market share declines, reduced production levels, negative industry trends such as change in mix of vehicles, general macroeconomic conditions and other structural issues specific to their companies (such as significant overcapacity and pension and healthcare costs), the Detroit Three and certain of our other customers continue to implement or may implement various forms of restructuring initiatives in their North American operations (including, in certain cases, reorganization under bankruptcy laws). These restructuring actions have had and may continue to have a significant impact throughout our industry, including our supply base.

In Europe, signs of an economic slowdown are emerging, including rising inflation, and energy costs leading to higher interest rates and a general contraction of consumer spending. As a result, lower production levels in the second half of 2008 are expected. Certain of our customers in Europe have announced a decrease in production levels for the remainder of 2008, which will have a negative impact on our operations.

Inflation and Pricing Pressure:

Through the first half of 2008, commodity inflation continued to impact the industry. Costs of petroleum-based products were volatile, and the per barrel price of oil reached record highs. Further, ferrous metals and other base metal prices, resins, yarns and energy costs continued to increase. Consequently, overall commodity inflation pressures remain a significant concern for our business and have placed a considerable operational and financial burden on the Company. We expect such inflationary pressures to continue into the foreseeable future, both in North America and Europe, and we continually work with our suppliers and customers to mitigate the impact of increasing commodity costs. However, it is generally difficult to pass increased prices for manufactured components and raw materials through to our customers in the form of price increases.

Additionally, pricing pressure from our customers is characteristic of the automotive parts industry. This pressure is substantial and will continue. Virtually all OEMs have policies of seeking price reductions each year. Consequently, we have been forced to reduce our prices in both the initial bidding process and during the terms of contractual arrangements. We have taken steps to reduce costs and resist price reductions; however, price reductions

have negatively impacted our sales and profit margins and are expected to do so in the future. In addition to pricing concerns, we continue to be approached by our customers for changes in terms and conditions in our contracts concerning warranty and recall participation and payment terms on products shipped. We believe that the likely resolution of these proposed modifications will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Furthermore, because we purchase various types of equipment, raw materials and component parts from our suppliers, we may be adversely affected by their failure to perform as expected or their inability to adequately mitigate inflationary pressures. These pressures have proven to be insurmountable to some of our suppliers and we have seen the number of bankruptcies and insolvencies increase. While the unstable condition of some of our suppliers or their failure to perform has not led to any material disruptions thus far, we have experienced certain delivery delays and production issues. The overall condition of our supply base may possibly lead to further delivery delays, production issues or delivery of non-conforming products by our suppliers in the future. As such, we continue to monitor our vendor base for the best source of supply.

Labor Relations:

Work stoppages or other labor issues are inherent in our industry and may potentially occur at our customers’ or their suppliers’ facilities or at our or our suppliers’ facilities, which may have a material adverse effect on us. During the first six months of 2008, a labor disruption occurred at a supplier of General Motors Corporation during the renegotiation of a labor agreement with one of its major unions. The disruption impacted the production at General Motors Corporation and, as a result, its purchases from us. While this disruption did not have a material impact on our business in the first half of 2008, other work stoppages could occur that may negatively impact our operations.

Foreign Currencies:

The favorable impact on our reported earnings in U.S. dollars resulting from the translation of results denominated in other currencies, mainly the euro, which has appreciated against the U.S. dollar, was partially offset by the negative impact of certain other currency fluctuations. Even after hedging these other currency exposures, significant fluctuations, primarily the strengthening of the Canadian dollar and Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar and the strengthening of the Polish zloty and Czech koruna against the euro, negatively impacted our margins.

Company Strategy

Through the first half of 2008, our operations have been able to produce favorable results despite the negative industry pressures previously discussed. The effect of the unfavorable industry climate was mitigated by, among other things, our customer, product and geographic diversity. We also benefited from sales growth in Europe and Asia, continued demand for safety products, continued implementation of previously announced restructuring actions and targeted cost reductions throughout our businesses.

We have significant exposure to the European market, with approximately 57% of our 2007 sales generated from that region. Our geographic diversity and presence in these regions has helped offset many of the negative industry pressures and sales declines experienced in the North American market. The European market remains extremely competitive and, similar to the North American market, has also experienced major inroads by Asian manufacturers into the region over the past few years. While many of our major OEM customers have implemented, or are in the process of implementing, varying levels of restructuring actions in North America, no significant actions have been experienced recently in the European market. We are not aware of, nor do we anticipate, any major restructuring aimed at reducing vehicle assembly capacity at our major European customers.

While we continue our efforts to mitigate the risks described above, we expect the negative industry conditions to continue in the near future, thereby impacting the second half of 2008. During the first half of 2008, we recognized restructuring and fixed asset impairment charges of $32 million due primarily to the negative market conditions in North America. We will continue to evaluate our global footprint to ensure that we are properly configured and sized, considering the changes in market conditions. Plant rationalization beyond the facilities we

have closed or announced for closure, and additional global capacity optimization efforts across our businesses, may be warranted.

Our Debt and Capital Structure

On an ongoing basis we monitor, and may modify, our debt and capital structure to reduce associated costs and provide greater financial and covenant flexibility.

In May 2007, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement whereby we refinanced $2.5 billion of existing senior secured credit facilities with new facilities consisting of a secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and various senior secured term loan facilities (collectively with the Revolving Credit Facility, the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). In March and April 2007, we commenced and completed a tender offer for our then outstanding $1.3 billion of senior and senior subordinated notes (the “Old Notes”). In March 2007, we also issued new senior notes for approximately $1.5 billion (the “New Senior Notes”), and used the proceeds to fund the repurchase of the Old Notes.

On February 15, 2008, the Company redeemed all of its then remaining Old Notes for $20 million and recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $1 million.

As market conditions warrant, we and our major equity holders, including The Blackstone Group L.P. and its affiliates (the “Blackstone Investors”), may from time to time repurchase debt securities issued by the Company or its subsidiaries, in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise.

Effective Tax Rate

Our overall effective tax rate is equal to consolidated tax expense as a percentage of consolidated earnings before tax. However, tax expense and benefits are not recognized on a global basis but rather on a jurisdictional or legal entity basis. We are in a position whereby losses incurred in certain tax jurisdictions provide no current financial statement tax benefit. In addition, certain jurisdictions have statutory tax rates that differ from the United States statutory rate. As such, changes in the mix of earnings between jurisdictions could have a significant impact on our overall effective tax rate. Changes in tax law and rates as well as changes in our debt and capital structure could also have a significant impact on our effective rate.

Three Months Ended June 27, 2008 Compared to Three Months Ended June 29, 2007

Salesincreased by $692 million for the three months ended June 27, 2008 compared to the three months ended June 29, 2007. Foreign currency exchange had a $416 million favorable effect on sales, as the dollar continued to weaken against other currencies (most notably the euro). Higher volume (net of price reductions provided to customers) of $276 million also contributed to the sales increase, and was driven primarily by increased module sales along with industry growth in Europe and China and continued growth of safety products in all markets.

Gross profitincreased by $64 million for the three months ended June 27, 2008 compared to the three months ended June 29, 2007. The increase was driven primarily by favorable volume (net of adverse mix and favorable supplier resolutions that occurred in the prior period) of $33 million, net favorable currency effects of $18 million and net insurance recoveries of $14 million related to a business disruption at our brake line production facility in South America, which negatively impacted gross profit in the prior period by $3 million. Other favorable drivers included a reduction in pension and postretirement benefit expense of $8 million and lower warranty costs of $4 million. These favorable items were partially offset by higher engineering expense coupled with lower recoveries totaling $11 million. Additionally, price reductions and other customer-related costs along with higher inflation (net of cost reductions) and the non-recurrence of certain favorable product-related settlements that occurred in the prior period negatively impacted gross profit by $5 million. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 9.0% for each of the three months ended June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007.

Administrative and selling expensesdecreased by $4 million for the three months ended June 27, 2008 compared to the three months ended June 29, 2007. The decrease was driven primarily by cost reductions in excess of inflation of $8 million and a reduction in pension and postretirement benefit expense of $2 million, partially

offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange of $6 million. Administrative and selling expenses as a percentage of sales were 3.1% for the three months ended June 27, 2008, as compared to 3.7% for the three months ended June 29, 2007.

Other expense (income) — netchanged by $36 million for the three months ended June 27, 2008 compared to the three months ended June 29, 2007. This change was primarily due to an increase in foreign currency exchange losses of $18 million, resulting from the appreciation of Polish and Czech currencies during the second quarter of 2008 compared to the same prior year period. Also contributing to the change was a decrease in net gains on fixed asset sales of $8 million, a decrease in other miscellaneous income of $5 million, and a favorable settlement in the prior year impacting the provision for bad debts by $4 million.

Interestexpense-netdecreased by $13 million for the three months ended June 27, 2008 compared to the three months ended June 29, 2007. The decrease in interest expense was driven primarily by lower interest rates on variable rate debt.

Loss on retirement of debtdecreased by $8 million for the three months ended June 27, 2008 compared to the three months ended June 29, 2007. On April 18, 2007, we recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $1 million for redemption premiums paid on Old Notes tendered after the Consent Date. Additionally, on May 9, 2007, with the refinancing of the then existing senior secured credit facilities, we recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $7 million.

Income tax expensefor the three months ended June 27, 2008 was $56 million on pre-tax earnings of $183 million. For the three months ended June 29, 2007, income tax expense was $45 million on pre-tax earnings of $142 million and includes no tax benefit related to the $8 million loss on retirement of debt. The income tax rate varies from the United States statutory income tax rate due primarily to results in the United States and certain foreign jurisdictions that are currently in a valuation allowance position for which a corresponding income tax expense or benefit is not recognized, partially offset by favorable foreign tax rates, holidays, and credits.

Six Months Ended June 27, 2008 Compared to Six Months Ended June 29, 2007

Salesincreased by $1,269 million for the six months ended June 27, 2008 compared to the six months ended June 29, 2007. Foreign currency exchange had a $774 million favorable effect on sales, as the dollar continued to weaken against other currencies (most notably the euro). Higher volume (net of price reductions provided to customers) of $495 million also contributed to the sales increase, and was driven primarily by the growth of safety products including increased module sales and the growth in markets outside of North America.

Gross profitincreased by $89 million for the six months ended June 27, 2008 compared to the six months ended June 29, 2007. The increase was driven primarily by net favorable currency effects of $34 million, higher volume (net of adverse mix and favorable supplier resolutions that occurred in the prior year) of $29 million and cost reductions and the non-recurrence of certain prior period product-related settlements (in excess of inflation and price reductions), of $23 million. Also contributing to the increase in gross profit were net insurance recoveries of $14 million related to a business disruption at our brake line production facility in South America and thenon-recurrence of associated costs which negatively impacted the prior period by $11 million. Other favorable drivers included a reduction in pension and postretirement benefit expense of $12 million and lower warranty costs of $8 million. These items were partially offset by higher engineering expense, coupled with lower recoveries, totaling $43 million. Gross profit as a percentage of sales for the six months ended June 27, 2008 was 8.6% compared to 8.9% for the six months ended June 29, 2007.

Administrative and selling expensesamounted to $268 million for each of the six months ended June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007. The unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange of $17 million was significantly offset by the favorable impact of cost reductions in excess of inflation. Administrative and selling expenses as a percentage of sales for the six months ended June 27, 2008 were 3.1% compared to 3.7% for the six months ended June 29, 2007.

Other expense (income) — netchanged by $44 million for the six months ended June 27, 2008 compared to the six months ended June 29, 2007. This change was primarily due to an increase in foreign currency exchange losses of $25 million, resulting from the appreciation of Polish and Czech currencies during the first half of 2008 compared to the same prior year period. Also contributing to the change was a decrease in net gains on fixed asset sales of $9 million, a decrease in other miscellaneous income of $3 million and a favorable settlement in the prior year impacting the provision for bad debts by $7 million.

Interest expense — netdecreased by $28 million for the six months ended June 27, 2008 as compared to the six months ended June 29, 2007. The decrease in interest expense was driven primarily by lower interest rates on variable rate debt and the lower interest rates of the new Senior Notes compared to the Old Notes.

Loss on retirement of debtdecreased by $155 million for the six months ended June 27, 2008 as compared to the six months ended June 29, 2007. On March 26, 2007 we repurchased substantially all of the Old Notes for $1,386 million resulting in a loss on retirement of debt of $147 million. On April 18, 2007 in conjunction with the tender of Old Notes after the Consent Date, we recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $1 million. Additionally, on May 9, 2007, with the refinancing of the then existing senior secured credit facilities we recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $7 million.

Income tax expensefor the six months ended June 27, 2008 was $103 million on pre-tax earnings of $324 million. Income tax expense for the six months ended June 29, 2007 was $98 million on pre-tax earnings of $109 million and includes no tax benefit related to the $155 million loss on retirement of debt. The income tax rate varies from the United States statutory income tax rate due primarily to results in the United States and certain foreign jurisdictions that are currently in a valuation allowance position for which a corresponding income tax expense or benefit is not recognized, partially offset by favorable foreign tax rates, holidays, and credits.

For the six months ended June 27, 2008, we recorded restructuring charges of $2 million in connection with severance and related costs at certain North American production facilities and $1 million of asset impairments related to restructuring to write down certain machinery and equipment to fair value. For the six months ended June 29, 2007, we recorded $3 million in asset impairments related to restructuring activities to write down certain machinery and equipment to fair value and restructuring charges of $1 million in connection with severance and other costs related to the consolidation of certain facilities, offset by the reversal of $2 million of reserves for severance and other charges associated with the closing of a facility as the related activities were completed at a lower cost than previously estimated.

Salesincreased by $44 million for the three months ended June 27, 2008 compared to the three months ended June 29, 2007. The increase was driven primarily by the favorable impact of foreign currency exchange of $54 million, partially offset by price reductions to customers and unfavorable volume totaling $10 million.

Earnings before taxesincreased by $1 million for the three months ended June 27, 2008 compared to the three months ended June 29, 2007. The increase was driven primarily by lower restructuring and impairment costs of $4 million, the favorable impact of foreign currency exchange of $4 million, lower warranty costs of $2 million, and decreased pension and other postretirement benefit expense of $1 million. These favorable items were partially offset by the non-recurrence of a gain of $10 million related to the sale of an Automotive Components manufacturing facility that occurred in the prior period.

For the three months ended June 27, 2008, we recorded restructuring charges of $1 million related to severance and other costs at various production facilities. For the three months ended June 29, 2007, we recorded restructuring charges of $4 million related to severance and other costs primarily related to the closure of a facility in Spain, and $1 million in asset impairments related to restructuring activities to write down certain machinery and equipment to fair value.

Salesincreased by $83 million for the six months ended June 27, 2008 compared to the six months ended June 29, 2007. The increase was driven primarily by the favorable impact of foreign currency exchange of $102 million, partially offset by price reductions to customers and unfavorable volume totaling $19 million.

Earnings before taxesincreased by $5 million for the six months ended June 27, 2008 compared to the six months ended June 29, 2007. The increase was driven primarily by the favorable impact of foreign currency exchange of $7 million, lower restructuring and impairment costs of $5 million and decreased pension and other postretirement benefit expense of $2 million. These favorable items were partially offset by the non-recurrence of a gain of $10 million related to the sale of an Automotive Components manufacturing facility that occurred in the prior year.

For the six months ended June 27, 2008, we recorded restructuring charges of $1 million related to severance and other costs at various production facilities. For the six months ended June 29, 2007, we recorded restructuring charges of $5 million in connection with severance and other costs primarily related to the closure of a facility in Spain, and $1 million in asset impairments related to restructuring activities to write down certain machinery and equipment to fair value.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

Operating Activities. Cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 27, 2008 was $75 million compared to cash provided by operating activities of $69 million for the six months ended June 29, 2007, which included proceeds of $127 million from borrowings under our Receivables Facility. Adjusting for the proceeds from the Receivables Facility, cash used in operations was consistent between the two periods.

Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 27, 2008 was $258 million compared to $229 million for the six months ended June 29, 2007.

During the six months ended June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007, we spent $217 million and $228 million, respectively, in capital expenditures, primarily in connection with upgrading existing products, continuing new product launches and providing for incremental capacity, infrastructure and equipment at our facilities to support our manufacturing and cost reduction efforts. We expect to spend approximately $600 million, or approximately 3.5% of sales, in such capital expenditures during 2008.

During 2008, we spent approximately $40 million in conjunction with an acquisition in North America in our Chassis Systems segment. We also spent approximately $6 million on a joint venture in India to facilitate access to the Indian market and support our global customers.

Financing Activities. Cash used in financing activities was $150 million for the six months ended June 27, 2008, as compared to $133 million for the six months ended June 29, 2007. During the 2008 period we redeemed all of the remaining Old Notes for $20 million and repurchased and retired $12 million in principal amount of the 7% Senior Notes outstanding for $11 million. Additionally, we made net cash payments of $129 million on our Revolving Credit Facility. During the 2007 period, we repurchased substantially all of our Old Notes for approximately $1,386 million, and issued the New Senior Notes for cash proceeds of approximately $1,465 million. Proceeds from the issuance of the New Senior Notes were used to fund the repurchase of the Old Notes and for general corporate purposes.

Debt and Commitments

Sources of Liquidity. Our primary source of liquidity is cash flow generated from operations. We also have availability under our revolving credit facility and receivables facilities described below, subject to certain conditions. See “— Senior Secured Credit Facilities,” and “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements” below. Our primary liquidity requirements, which are significant, are expected to be for debt service, working capital, capital expenditures, research and development costs and other general corporate purposes.

As of June 27, 2008, we had outstanding $3.1 billion in aggregate indebtedness. We intend to draw down on, and use proceeds from, the Revolving Credit Facility and our United States and European accounts receivables facilities (collectively, the “Liquidity Facilities”) to fund normal working capital needs from month to month in conjunction with available cash on hand. As of June 27, 2008, we had approximately $1,028 million of availability

under our Revolving Credit Facility, which primarily reflects $300 million of revolver borrowings, $7 million of outstanding borrowings under our ancillary facilities and $62 million in outstanding letters of credit, which reduced the amount available. As of June 27, 2008, approximately $219 million of our total reported accounts receivable balance was considered eligible for borrowings under our United States receivables facility, of which approximately $163 million was available for funding. As of June 27, 2008, we had no outstanding borrowings under this receivables facility. In addition, as of June 27, 2008, we had approximately €130 million and £25 million available under our European accounts receivable facilities. We had no outstanding borrowings under the European accounts receivable facilities as of June 27, 2008.

During any given month we anticipate that we will have up to $850 million outstanding under the Liquidity Facilities. Portions of the amounts drawn under the Liquidity Facilities typically will be paid back throughout the month as cash from customers is received. We may then draw upon such facilities again for working capital purposes in the same or succeeding months. These borrowings reflect normal working capital utilization of liquidity. In addition, we own a 78.4% interest in Dalphi Metal España, S.A. (“Dalphimetal”). Dalphimetal and its subsidiaries have approximately €23 million of credit facilities, of which the entire €23 million was available as of June 27, 2008. Our subsidiaries in the Asia Pacific region also have various credit facilities totaling approximately $128 million, of which $70 million was available on June 27, 2008. These borrowings are primarily in the local currency of the country where our subsidiaries’ operations are located. We expect that these additional facilities will be drawn from time to time for normal working capital purposes.

Debt Repurchases. See Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, included in Part I, Item 1, of this Report for a discussion of debt repurchases occurring in the six months ended June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007, respectively.

Funding Our Requirements. While we are highly leveraged, we believe that funds generated from operations and available borrowing capacity will be adequate to fund debt service requirements, capital expenditures, working capital requirements, company-sponsored research and development programs, and other general corporate purposes. In addition, we believe that our current financial position and financing plans will provide flexibility in worldwide financing activities and permit us to respond to changing conditions in credit markets. However, our ability to continue to fund these items and to reduce debt may be affected by general economic conditions (including difficulties in the automotive industry), financial markets, competitive, legislative and regulatory factors, and the cost of warranty and recall and litigation claims, among other things. Therefore, we cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowings will be available to us under our Liquidity Facilities in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs.

Credit Ratings. Set forth below are our credit ratings and ratings outlook for Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”), Moody’s and Fitch as of June 27, 2008.

In the event of a downgrade, we believe we would continue to have access to sufficient liquidity; however, the cost of any new borrowing could increase and our ability to access certain financial markets could be limited.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities. As of June 27, 2008, the term loan facilities, with maturities ranging from 2013 to 2014, consisted of an aggregate of $1.1 billion dollar-denominated term loans and the Revolving Credit Facility provided for borrowing of up to $1.4 billion.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements. The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements from time to time to hedge either the variability of interest payments associated with variable rate debt or to effectively change fixed rate debt obligations into variable rate obligations. See “— Other Borrowings” in Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for a description of our current interest rate swap agreements.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

As indicated above, on February 15, 2008, we redeemed all of the remaining Old Notes for $20 million and in March 2008, we repurchased and retired $12 million of the 7% Senior Notes outstanding for $11 million.

We have no unconditional purchase obligations other than those related to inventory, services, tooling and property, plant and equipment in the ordinary course of business.

Other Commitments. Escalating pricing pressure from customers is characteristic of the automotive parts industry. Virtually all OEMs have policies of seeking price reductions each year. We have taken steps to reduce costs and resist price reductions; however, price reductions have impacted our sales and profit margins. If we are not able to offset continued price reductions through improved operating efficiencies and reduced expenditures, those price reductions may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

In addition to pricing concerns, we continue to be approached by our customers for changes in terms and conditions in our contracts concerning warranty and recall participation and payment terms on product shipped. We believe that the likely resolution of these proposed modifications will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have guarantees related to unconsolidated entities, which have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material current or future effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

See Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for a discussion of our United States Receivables Facility.

CONTINGENCIES AND ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

See Note 16 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for a discussion on contingencies, including environmental contingencies and the amount of accrued reserves for environmental matters. Except as may be set forth in such Note, there have been no material changes to the matters discussed under “— Environmental Matters” in the Company’s Annual Report onForm 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for a discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements.

OTHER MATTERS

In the second quarter of 2007, the Company ceased to be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the New York Stock Exchange corporate governance rules. As a result, in order to comply with New York Stock Exchange listing standards, only independent directors now serve on the Company’s Compensation Committee and Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. The Audit Committee, which was already comprised of only independent directors, was not changed.

OUTLOOK

The Company increased its full year outlook to reflect the strong second quarter outcome, partially offset by a lower outlook for the second half of 2008. We now expect full year sales to be in the range of $16.4 to $16.8 billion (including third quarter sales of approximately $3.9 billion) and net earnings per diluted share in the range of $2.40 to $2.70. For 2008, we expect pre-tax restructuring and asset impairment charges of approximately $75 million (of which approximately $25 million is expected to be incurred in the third quarter), and an effective tax rate in the range of 38 to 42 percent. Lastly, the Company expects capital expenditures in 2008 to be approximately 3.5 percent of sales.

In recent months, the outlook for the North American automotive industry has further deteriorated with the decline in overall production of light vehicles, the shift of production away from light trucks to passenger cars and severe commodity inflation being the primary pressures in this market. The updated 2008 outlook reflects the weaker outlook for the North American market and expectations of a softening production environment in Europe, both of which are expected to continue into 2009.

The expected annual effective tax rate underlying our guidance is dependent on several assumptions, including the level and mix of future income by taxing jurisdiction, current enacted global corporate tax rates and global corporate tax laws remaining constant. Changes in tax law and rates could have a significant impact on the effective rate. The overall effective tax rate is equal to consolidated tax expense as a percentage of consolidated earnings before tax. However, tax expense and benefits are not recognized on a global basis but rather on a jurisdictional or legal entity basis. We are in a position whereby losses incurred in certain jurisdictions provide no current financial statement tax benefit. As such, changes in the mix of projected earnings between jurisdictions could have a significant impact on our overall effective tax rate.

We are concerned about the ongoing financial health and solvency of our major customers as they address negative industry conditions through various restructuring activities. Such restructuring actions, if significant, could have a negative impact on our financial results. Annually, we purchase large quantities of ferrous metals, aluminum, base metals, resins, and textiles for use in our manufacturing process either indirectly as part of purchased components, or directly as raw materials, and therefore we continue to be exposed to the recent inflationary pressures impacting certain commodities such as petroleum-based products, resins, yarns, ferrous metals, base metals, and other chemicals on a worldwide basis. We are also concerned about the viability of the Tier 2 and Tier 3 supply base as they face these inflationary pressures and other financial difficulties in the current automotive environment. We expect these trends to continue, further pressuring the Company’s performance in the near future. While we continue our efforts to mitigate the impact of these negative conditions on our financial results, including earnings and cash flows, our efforts may be insufficient and the pressures may worsen, thereby potentially having a negative impact on our future results.

Given the nature of our global operations, we maintain an inherent exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. A strengthening of the U.S. dollar against other currencies would have a negative currency translation impact on our results of operations due to our proportional concentration of sales volumes in countries outside the United States. A weakening of mainly the U.S. dollar against the Mexican peso, the Canadian dollar, the Chinese renminbi or the Brazilian real or a weakening of the euro against the British pound, the Polish zloty, or the Czech koruna would, even after hedging, have a negative impact on gross profit and earnings. In addition, while we generally benefit through translation from the weakening of the dollar, over the long term such weakening may have a material adverse affect on the competitiveness of our manufacturing facilities located in countries whose currencies are appreciating against the dollar.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Report includes “forward-looking statements,” as that term is defined by the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning our plans, intentions, objectives, goals, strategies, forecasts, future events, future revenue or performance, capital expenditures, financing needs, business trends and other information that is not historical information. When used in this Report, the words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,” “forecasts,” and future or conditional verbs, such as “will,” “should,” “could” or “may,” as well as variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements are so designated. All forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, management’s examination of historical operating trends and data, are based upon our current expectations and various assumptions, and apply only as of the date of this Report. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs and projections will be achieved.

There are a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those suggested by our forward-looking statements, including those set forth in the Company’s Annual Report onForm 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 under “Item 1A. Risk Factors”,

as updated in Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Report, including: loss of market share, production cuts and capacity reductions by domestic North American vehicle manufacturers and resulting restructuring initiatives, including bankruptcy actions, of our suppliers and customers; escalating pricing pressures from our customers; commodity inflationary pressures adversely affecting our profitability and supply base, including any resulting inability of our suppliers to perform as we expect; our dependence on our largest customers; product liability, warranty and recall claims and efforts by customers to alter terms and conditions concerning warranty and recall participation; strengthening of the U.S. dollar and other foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations; work stoppages or other labor issues at our facilities or at the facilities of our customers or suppliers; our substantial debt and resulting vulnerability to an economic or industry downturn and to rising interest rates; cyclicality of automotive production and sales; any increase in the expense and funding requirements of our pension and other postretirement benefits; risks associated withnon-U.S. operations, including foreign exchange risks and economic uncertainty in some regions; any impairment of our goodwill or other intangible assets; volatility in our annual effective tax rate resulting from a change in earnings mix or other factors; adverse effects of environmental and safety regulations; assertions by or against us relating to intellectual property rights; the possibility that our largest shareholder’s interests will conflict with ours; and other risks and uncertainties set forth in our Report onForm 10-K, in “— Executive Overview” above and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by such cautionary statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements which have been made to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.


Item 3.	*Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk*

Our primary market risk arises from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. We manage foreign currency exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, and to a lesser extent commodity price risk, by utilizing various derivative instruments and limit the use of such instruments to hedging activities. We do not use such instruments for speculative or trading purposes. We are exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the derivative financial instruments. We limit this exposure by entering into agreements directly with a number of major financial institutions that meet our credit standards and that are expected to fully satisfy their obligations under the contracts.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk. We utilize derivative financial instruments to manage foreign currency exchange rate risks. Forward contracts, and to a lesser extent options, are utilized to protect our cash flow from adverse movements in exchange rates. Foreign currency exposures are reviewed monthly and any natural offsets are considered prior to entering into a derivative financial instrument. As of June 27, 2008, approximately 19% of our total debt was in foreign currencies as compared to 18% as of December 31, 2007.

Interest Rate Risk. We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with the issuance of variable- and fixed-rate debt. In order to manage interest costs, we may occasionally utilize interest rate swap agreements to exchange fixed- and variable-rate interest payment obligations over the life of the agreements. Our exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily from changes in London Inter-Bank Offered Rates (LIBOR). As of June 27, 2008, approximately 47% of our total debt was at variable interest rates (or 38% when considering the effect of the interest rate swaps entered in January 2008), as compared to 49% (or 40% when considering the effect of the interest rate swaps) as of December 31, 2007.

Sensitivity Analysis. We utilize a sensitivity analysis model to calculate the fair value, cash flows or statement of earnings impact that a hypothetical 10% change in market rates would have on our debt and derivative instruments. For derivative instruments, we utilized applicable forward rates in effect as of June 27, 2008 to calculate the fair value or cash flow impact resulting from this hypothetical change in market rates. The analyses also do not factor in a potential change in the level of variable rate borrowings or derivative instruments outstanding

that could take place if these hypothetical conditions prevailed. The results of the sensitivity model calculations follow:

Item 4.	*Controls and Procedures*

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, based on their evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a — 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of June 27, 2008, have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files and submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There was no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the second fiscal quarter of 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.	*Legal Proceedings*

See Note 16 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for a discussion on legal proceedings involving the Company or its subsidiaries.


Item 1A.	*Risk Factors*

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes in risk factors involving the Company or its subsidiaries from those previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report onForm 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

Loss of market share, production cuts and capacity reductions by the Detroit Three may adversely affect our results in the future and the viability of our supply base.

Ford Motor Company, General Motors Corporation and Chrysler LLC (the “Detroit Three”) have been losing market share for vehicle sales in North America. At the same time, Asian vehicle manufacturers have increased their share in such markets. Although we do have business with the Asian vehicle manufacturers, our customer base in North America is more heavily weighted toward the Detroit Three. In addition, declining market share, the acceleration in consumers’ shift away from light trucks to passenger cars and inherent structural issues with the Detroit Three have led to announcements of an unprecedented level of production cuts and permanent capacity reductions. In order to address market share declines, reduced production levels, negative industry trends such as the change in mix of vehicles and other structural issues specific to their companies (such as significant overcapacity and pension and healthcare costs), the Detroit Three and certain of our other customers are undergoing or may undergo various forms of restructuring initiatives (including, in certain cases, reorganization under bankruptcy laws). Substantial restructuring initiatives, including permanent capacity reductions, undertaken by our major customers have had, and will continue to have, a ripple effect throughout our industry. These initiatives have negatively impacted us and our supply base and may continue to do so in the future.


Item 2.	*Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds*


*(c)*	*Issuer repurchases*

The independent trustee of our 401(k) plans purchases shares in the open market to fund (i) investments by employees in our common stock, one of the investment options available under such plans, and (ii) matching contributions in Company stock we provide under certain of such plans. In addition, our stock incentive plan permits payment of an option exercise price by means of cashless exercise through a broker and permits the satisfaction of the minimum statutory tax obligations upon exercise of options through stock withholding. Further, while our stock incentive plan also permits the satisfaction of the minimum statutory tax obligations upon the vesting of restricted stock through stock withholding, the shares withheld for such purpose are issued directly to us and are then immediately retired and returned to our authorized but unissued reserve. The Company does not believe that the foregoing purchases or transactions are issuer repurchases for the purposes of this Item 2 of this Report.


Item 4.	*Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders*

The Company held its 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May 20, 2008. At the meeting, the following matters were submitted to a vote of, and approved by, the stockholders of the Company:
