Full Year Fiscal 2007 Results
| · | Strong sales volumes were achieved in most businesses through the majority of fiscal 2007. |
| · | Underlying earnings were positively impacted by strong volumes and improved operating performance in the company’s manufacturing operations, but were more than offset by continued margin pressure from customer pricing and the cost of raw materials. |
| · | $13.6 million in repositioning and restructuring charges were recorded during the year. |
| · | Lower effective tax rate with a tax benefit of 7.6 percent in fiscal 2007 versus a tax provision of 32.9 percent in fiscal 2006, due to the favorable impact of tax planning strategies completed during the year and a shift in taxable earnings to lower tax rate foreign jurisdictions. |
David B. Rayburn, Modine President and Chief Executive Officer said, “As a result of the actions we’ve taken to date – as well as those we’ll continue to take – we are confident that the company’s future is bright. I am very excited about our plant expansions in emerging markets. In addition, we’ve secured a number of new business wins, such as our recent announcement to provide exhaust gas recirculation coolers for Hyundai passenger vehicles, and the recent announcement of our largest ever North American school room air conditioning order. There is no doubt that we faced headwinds in our fourth quarter due to significantly lower North American truck build rates, but we have made solid progress on our repositioning program. Thus, we are looking forward to a similar or improved level of pre-tax results in fiscal 2008.”

Full Year Accomplishments
| · | Secured new business. During the year we announced several significant new business wins that helped further diversify the company by customer and by region, including those with Volvo, Denso, and Hyundai. |
| · | Repositioned the manufacturing footprint. The company announced plans to close four plants in the U.S., including the recently announced conditional closure of the Jackson, Mississippi plant. In addition, the company announced plans to invest $60 million in new plants in China and India to serve the Asian domestic markets, a new plant in Mexico to serve the North American market, and a plant in Hungary to serve the growing European heavy duty and industrial market. Modine also acquired the remaining 50 percent of its business in Brazil that it did not already own and closed its loss-making facility in Taiwan. |
| · | Introduced technology innovations. Modine is making significant progress on its next generation powertrain cooling technology which will provide improved performance with lower material content. The company is also closer to commercially producing critical components for the growing global needs of stationary power fuel cells. During the year, Modine developed a CO2 fuel cell unit demonstrator to address the idle-off needs of the trucking industry, as well as a CO2 HVAC system for the U.S. military which won a U.S. Secretary of Defense Award. |
| · | Announced the intention to explore strategic alternatives for Modine’s Electronics Cooling business. |
The following table reconciles the estimated significant differences in earnings from continuing operations between fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2007:

Fiscal 2007 Full Year Earnings from Continuing Operations | $ | 42.3 | ||||||
Sales: Full year sales from continuing operations were $1.76 billion, up from $1.63 billion reported in the 2006 fiscal year. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and foreign currency exchange rate changes, underlying sales increased by $15.6 million, or 1 percent. Strong sales existed in European automotive, North American truck and global heavy duty markets.
Gross Profit: Full year gross profit declined to $282.0 million, or 16.0 percent of sales, from the $309.6 million, or 19.0 percent of sales, reported last fiscal year. This decrease is attributable to higher global commodity pricing and customer price decreases experienced during the fiscal year. In addition, $6.0 million of the repositioning costs were recorded in gross profit during the fiscal year, as the company continues to reposition its manufacturing footprint. Favorable manufacturing performance of $22.1 million partially offset these decreases.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses and Restructuring Costs: Full year SG&A expenses increased $3.4 million, or 1.5 percent, from fiscal 2006, excluding the impact of $7.6 million of repositioning and restructuring costs and the $11.2 million impact from the company’s acquisition of Modine Brazil. As a percentage of sales, SG&A was 13.3 percent, which has improved from 13.5 percent of sales in fiscal 2006 – excluding the impact of the items mentioned above.
2
Earnings: Fiscal 2007 earnings from continuing operations of $42.3 million decreased from $60.8 million earned last year. The decrease includes reduced pre-tax results which were partially offset by favorable tax planning strategies completed during fiscal 2007.
Full Year Fiscal 2007 Segment Data
Original Equipment - Americas segment sales increased 8.9 percent, or $60.6 million, to $742.6 million from $682.0 million reported one year ago, with operating income of $53.8 million versus $82.6 million in fiscal 2006. The Modine Brazil acquisition had a $77.2 million positive impact on the sales results. Sales growth in the truck and heavy duty markets were more than offset by declining sales volumes in the North American automotive market. Operating income was down throughout North America, due to continued pricing pressure and the effect of higher raw material costs, as well as $6.9 million in pre-tax costs incurred within this segment related to the company’s repositioning and restructuring efforts.
Original Equipment - Europe segment sales increased 9.2 percent to $588.7 million from $539.1 million one year ago, due to strong automotive and heavy duty sales, and the positive effect of foreign currency changes on the business. Operating income was $62.0 million versus $71.8 million last year. Higher commodity prices and customer pricing pressures contributed to this decrease, partially offset by favorable manufacturing performance.
Original Equipment - Asia segment sales increased 5.8 percent to $218.9 million from $206.9 million one year ago primarily due to the positive effect of foreign currency on the business. The business recorded an operating loss of $0.9 million in fiscal 2007, which is consistent with the operating loss recorded in fiscal 2006. Customer pricing pressures in fiscal 2007 were largely offset by operating performance improvements and reduced salaries from headcount reductions.
Commercial Heating, Ventilating, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration (CHVAC&R) segment sales increased 4.1 percent to $178.5 million from $171.5 million; however, operating income decreased to $7.7 million versus $15.1 million in fiscal 2006. The decrease in operating income was related to integration inefficiencies, as the Airedale business was transferred into the existing North American facilities during fiscal 2007. In addition, initial SAP launch issues in the United Kingdom contributed to the decrease in operating income.
Other segment sales in fiscal 2007 were $39.8 million, up from $34.8 million one year ago, with an operating loss of $8.1 million versus an operating loss of $15.2 million in fiscal 2006. The operating loss in the prior year was related to Modine’s Taiwan operations that ceased production in July 2006. With the closing of that facility, Modine’s remaining Electronics Cooling business operated near a breakeven level but is showing positive earnings momentum.
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2007 Results
| · | Slower than anticipated start-up from a new North American truck customer that banked engines prior to the January 1, 2007 U.S. emissions law changes. |
| · | Lower U.S. truck revenues – down 21 percent. |
| · | Higher commodity prices – a $3.7 million year over year impact to net earnings. |
| · | Higher repositioning and restructuring costs of $3.4 million and increased warranty costs of $3.9 million. |

The following table reconciles the estimated significant differences in results from continuing operations between the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 and the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007:
($’s in millions, after tax) | ||||||||
Fiscal 2006 Fourth Quarter Earnings from Continuing Operations | $ | 12.7 | ||||||
Differences (pre-tax) | ||||||||

Fiscal 2007 Fourth Quarter Loss from Continuing Operations | $ | (2.8 | ) | |||||
Sales: Fourth quarter sales from continuing operations were $421.6 million, a slight improvement from $416.9 million reported in the fiscal 2006 fourth quarter. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and foreign currency exchange rate changes, underlying sales decreased by $34.1 million, or 8.2 percent. Sales volumes were negatively impacted by the cyclical downturn in the U.S. truck markets, as well as continued softness in the U.S. automotive market.
Gross Profit: Fourth quarter gross profit declined to $58.4 million, or 13.9 percent of sales, from the fiscal 2006 fourth quarter gross profit of $69.3 million, or 16.6 percent of sales. This decrease is attributable to higher global commodity pricing and certain warranty issues in the company’s Original Equipment-Europe business segment. In addition, $1.9 million of repositioning costs were recorded in gross profit during the quarter, as the company continues to reposition its manufacturing footprint. Favorable manufacturing efficiencies of $4.2 million partially offset these decreases.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses and Restructuring Costs: Fiscal 2007 fourth quarter SG&A expenses increased $2.6 million from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, excluding the impact of $1.5 million of repositioning and restructuring costs, and the $3.4 million impact from the company’s acquisition of Modine Brazil. This increase is primarily driven by start up expenses incurred for our new plants in India and Mexico, and costs incurred related to significant new business launches. Also, in the quarter, the company expensed an additional $1.6 million of stock-based compensation costs in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) which was adopted during fiscal 2007.
Earnings/Loss: The loss from continuing operations of $2.8 million represented a significant decline from the earnings of $12.7 million in the same period last year. The company reported a loss in the fourth quarter due to the factors impacting the reduction in gross profit and changes in SG&A noted above.
Fiscal Year End Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Return on Capital
Operating cash flow was $102.4 million in fiscal 2007 compared with $131.9 million in fiscal 2006. This reduction is primarily due to increased working capital needs and declining year over year financial performance. However, this represents the seventh consecutive year that operating cash flows exceeded $100 million. During fiscal 2007, the company funded $82.8 million of capital expenditures in support of new business, acquired the remaining 50 percent of Modine Brazil it did not already own for $11.1 million, and provided $35.9 million in cash returns to shareholders through dividend payments and share repurchases. The cash balance at March 31, 2007 was $21.2 million, compared to $30.8 million at the end of fiscal 2006.

Commenting on the company’s financial position, Bradley C. Richardson, Modine’s Executive Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer, said, “We’re very pleased with our cash flow generation and the strength of our balance sheet, which give us the flexibility to reinvest in profitable growth opportunities and address challenging market conditions. We remain focused on minimizing our on-hand cash balances by investing in the business and continuing to provide returns to our shareholders.”
Working capital of $148.9 million at the end of fiscal 2007 was higher than the balance of $117.2 million at March 31, 2006 primarily due to assets capitalized in conjunction with the company’s acquisition of Modine Brazil and increased working capital needs. The company continues to focus on increasing its inventory turns and reducing days’ sales outstanding, both of which have shown improvements in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007.
Total debt at the end of fiscal 2007 was $179.3 million, compared with $157.8 million at the end of fiscal 2006. The debt to capital (debt plus shareholders’ equity) ratio increased to 26.7 percent, compared with 23.8 percent at the end of fiscal 2006. The increase in Modine’s debt level in fiscal 2007 is primarily attributable the company’s acquisition of the remaining 50 percent of Modine Brazil. This increase in debt, coupled with a $51 million reduction in shareholders’ equity based on the company’s adoption of the pension and post-retirement provisions of SFAS No.158 during the fourth quarter, contributed to the company’s increased debt to capital ratio. Return on average capital employed (ROACE)* for fiscal 2007 was 7.2 percent, down from 9.7 percent for fiscal 2006.
Fiscal 2008 Outlook
In commenting on Modine’s fiscal 2008 outlook, Mr. Rayburn said, “As a result of our repositioning efforts, we expect a similar or improved level of pre-tax results in our business in fiscal 2008. We will continue to face challenges in the year including the impact of the expected decline in the U.S. truck markets, high commodity pricing, redundant costs as we reposition our manufacturing footprint, IT system implementation costs, and a higher tax rate. Despite those challenges we are forecasting that pre-tax margins will increase as we exit low profit businesses, gain increased operating efficiencies, continue our low cost country purchasing initiatives, and lower SG&A expenses.”
The company expects fiscal 2008 earnings from continuing operations to fall within a range of $0.80 and $1.20 per fully diluted share, based on the current assumptions for metals pricing and the 2008 North American truck build. These expectations are subject to a number of assumptions and other factors outlined below, and would change significantly if the assumptions are not correct, or if developments transpire outside the company’s control.
Mr. Rayburn continued, “We expect that the plans and programs we have put in place will allow us to overcome many of the challenges we face. There is some upside potential to our forecast, such as benefits we may experience from strong global agricultural market demand and our ability to further pass commodity hardship pricing on to our customers. We expect earnings momentum to build in the second half of the fiscal year.”
Guidance Summary

| Net sales | $ | 1.76 billion | $ | 1.65 billion | $ | 1.70 billion | ||||||

| Depreciation | $ | 71 million | $ | 75 million | $ | 80 million | ||||||
Key assumptions and other considerations included in Modine’s fiscal 2008 guidance:
| · | Sales in the Americas will be down due to lower demand and a slow ramp-up of new customer demand; for Asia, sales will be up from new product wins; for Europe, sales will be up from increased volumes; and for Commercial HVAC&R, sales will be up due to market strength. The most significant factor impacting these assumptions is truck volumes in the U.S. which will be down throughout fiscal 2008. However, the company has partially offset this decline by securing business from a new North American truck customer that will significantly increase Modine’s share of the U.S. truck market. The benefit from this market share gain will not be realized until the second half of fiscal 2008, because the start-up of the Freightliner business has been slow. Our assumption is for the U.S. heavy duty truck build to be approximately 220,000 units with 8 percent of revenues derived from the U.S. truck market. |
5
| · | Gross margins improving year over year. The most significant factor impacting this assumption is based on metals pricing remaining at recent market prices of $1.28 per pound for aluminum, $22.75 per pound for nickel, and $3.60 per pound for copper. A parallel 5 percent shift in the average metal prices during fiscal 2008 is estimated to result in a $0.10 per share change in our reported earnings. The company will continue to use hedging instruments from time to time, and seek to maximize recovery of increased commodity prices from our customers through pass-through agreements and hardship pricing. |
| · | The tax rate will increase due to the absence of tax planning strategies available in fiscal 2007 that lowered the effective tax rate. |
| · | Capital spending will be up due to our manufacturing footprint repositioning activities. |
Mr. Rayburn emphasized, “We have the right plan and are making the right decisions to lower costs, increase margins and grow the company profitably. I remain confident that as we look out over the long term, we will be a more cost competitive, innovative and efficient company with improved results for our shareholders.”
