The financial statements at June 30, 1995 and for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 are unaudited and include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and operating results. The condensed unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation S-X and, therefore, do not contain all information and footnotes normally contained in annual financial statements; accordingly, they should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and notes thereto appearing in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of the Company for the year ended December 31, 1994. 2. The results of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the full year. REVIEW BY INDEPENDENT AUDITORS The condensed financial statements included in this filing on Form 10-Q have been reviewed by the Company's independent auditors, Ernst & Young LLP, and their report thereon is attached hereto as Part I - Exhibit 1. All adjustments or additional disclosures proposed by the Company's independent auditors have been reflected in the data presented. 6 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Net sales increased 12.8% for the second quarter of 1995 and 11.9% for the first six months of 1995 as compared to the corresponding periods in 1994. Sales of both tire and engineered products were higher than for the three-month and six-month periods one year ago. Other income was higher in the second quarter and for the six months of 1995 compared to the corresponding 1994 periods due to increased investments of cash reserves. Cost of products sold, as a percent of net sales, was higher in the second quarter and six-month periods of 1995 compared to the corresponding periods in 1994. This deterioration resulted from continued increases in the cost of raw materials which were partially offset by favorable operating levels and some tire price increases. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2 million higher for the three-month and six-month periods compared to one year ago. As a percent of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses were unchanged for the quarter and lower than for the six-month period of 1994. Interest and debt expense was lower than for the corresponding 1994 periods reflecting lower debt levels and higher amounts of capitalized interest. Income before income taxes decreased 11.2% for the quarter and 4.1% for the six-month period from the corresponding periods in 1994. The impact of increases in sales, favorable operating levels and price increases were offset by higher raw material costs. The lower effective income tax rates for the quarter and six-months of 1995 reflect a reduction in the estimated state income tax rate retroactive to January 1, 1995. The financial position of the Company at June 30, 1995 is excellent. Working capital of $314.3 million is up $11.2 million since year end and up $63.4 million from June 30, 1994. The current ratio at 3.0 is unchanged from December 31, 1994 and compares favorably to the current ratio of 2.8 at June 30, 1994. Accounts receivable are up $45.7 million from year-end 1994 reflecting higher sales. Inventories are up $19.6 million from year-end primarily reflecting increases in finished goods inventories. 7 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 4.

(15) Letter from Ernst & Young LLP, independent accountants, dated August 10, 1995 regarding unaudited interim financial information. (27) Financial Data Schedule 9 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized. COOPER TIRE & RUBBER COMPANY /S/ J. Alec Reinhardt --------------------- J. Alec Reinhardt Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer) /S/ J. A. Faisant ----------------- J. A. Faisant Vice President and Corporate Controller (Principal Accounting Officer) August 10, 1995 --------------- (Date) 10 Part I Exhibit 1 INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT The Board of Directors Cooper Tire & Rubber Company We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Cooper Tire & Rubber Company as of June 30, 1995, and the related statements of income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 and the statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1994. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, which will be performed for the full year with the objective of expressing an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the balance sheet of Cooper Tire & Rubber Company as of December 31, 1994, and the related statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein) and in our report dated February 14, 1995, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying balance sheet as of December 31, 1994, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the balance sheet from which it has been derived. /S/ Ernst & Young LLP --------------------- ERNST & YOUNG LLP Toledo, Ohio July 17, 1995 11 Part II Exhibit (15) August 10, 1995 Securities and Exchange Commission Washington, D.C. 20549 We are aware of the incorporation by reference in the Registration Statements (Form S-3 No. 33-44159 and Form S-8 Nos. 2-58577, 2-77400, 33-5483, 33-35071, 33-47979, 33-47980, 33-47981, 33-47982, 33-52499 and 33-52505) of Cooper Tire & Rubber Company for the registration of its common stock of our reports dated April 12, 1995 and July 17, 1995 relating to the unaudited interim financial statements of Cooper Tire & Rubber Company which are included in its Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 1995 and June 30, 1995.
