NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IN THOUSANDS) 1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Talon Automotive Group, Inc.

The information furnished in the consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2000. The Company reports quarterly financial information in thirteen-week increments and ends each respective quarter on the Saturday following the thirteenth week with the fiscal year ending December 31. 2. EFFECT OF ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Effective January 1, 2001, the Company has adopted Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The implementation of this statement did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations. 3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES As of March 31, 2001, there were no significant changes to the status of commitments and contingencies presented in the footnotes to the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000. 4. INVENTORIES Inventory consisted of the following: MARCH 31, 2001 DECEMBER 31, 2000 ------------- ---------------- UNAUDITED Raw material $ 7,440 $ 6,562 Work in process 5,259 6,008 Finished goods 5,767 5,360 ------- ------- Total Inventory $18,466 $17,930 5.

For the first quarter 2001, the comprehensive loss was $7,860 as compared to $2,256 for the first quarter 2000. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form 10Q Page 6 7 6. SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTOR INFORMATION Veltri Metal Products Co. and Veltri Holdings, Inc. (collectively, the "Veltri Group") are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company and constitute all of the direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company. The Veltri Group has fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, the obligation to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Company's senior subordinated notes. There are no restrictions on the ability of the Veltri Group to transfer funds to the Company in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances, except as follows: (i) pursuant to the senior credit agreement the Veltri Group agreed not to (a) declare or make any dividend or other distribution with respect to any shares of capital stock; or (b) make loans, advances or extensions of credit to any person (except for credit sales in the ordinary course of business and loans to affiliates in an aggregate amount not to exceed $15,000 at any time outstanding); and (ii)pursuant to the indenture agreement for the Company's senior subordinated notes, the Veltri Group is prohibited from making loans or advances to the Company if a default or event of default shall have occurred under the indenture.

Therefore, separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the Veltri Group have been omitted, and in lieu thereof, summarized financial information relating to the Veltri Group is shown as follows: MARCH 31, 2001 DECEMBER 31, 2000 --------------- ----------------- UNAUDITED Current assets $33,587 $30,651 Non-current assets 53,399 55,527 Current liabilities 31,923 36,890 Non-current liabilities 36,786 33,330 THREE MONTHS ENDED: MARCH 31, 2001 APRIL 1, 2000 ------------- ------------- UNAUDITED UNAUDITED Net sales $26,537 $34,448 Gross profit 4,268 7,440 Net income (119) 1,582 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form 10Q Page 7 7. RESTRUCTURING CHARGE During the quarter ended December 31, 2000, the Company initiated a plan to integrate what was formerly known as the PSI division into other existing Company operations. This plan includes the closure of four existing PSI facilities in 2000 and 2001 and the movement of the related sales volume and corresponding equipment into existing operations in New Baltimore, Michigan, Royal Oak, Michigan and Windsor, Ontario, Canada. Upon completion of the integration, approximately 170 employees will be eliminated with estimated savings totaling $9,600 per year, when complete. In addition, four facilities with related infra-structure costs will be eliminated with estimated savings of $2,800 per year, when complete. The Company anticipates the majority of this integration to be completed by the third quarter of 2001. As a result of this integration plan, the Company recorded a $10,183 restructuring charge in 2000. This reserve includes severance benefits for terminated employees, the write-off of certain leasehold improvements, future lease obligations for buildings that have been or will be vacated and other facility closure costs. During the first quarter of 2001, the Company incurred $1,155 of severance and facility shutdown costs which were charged against this reserve leaving a balance of $9,027 as of March 31, 2001. 8 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 AS COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 1, 2000 Net Sales Net sales for the three month period ended March 31, 2001 ("first quarter 2001") were $63.2 million compared to $85.7 million for the three month period ended April 1, 2000 ("first quarter 2000"). This represents an decrease of $22.5 million or 26.2% as compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to lower industry volumes, OEM inventory adjustments and the balance out of certain Chrysler programs. Gross Profit Gross profit for the first quarter 2001 was $4.9 million or 7.8% of net sales compared to $10.9 million or 12.7% of net sales for the first quarter 2000. This represents an decrease of $6.0 million or 55% as compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales, costs associated with the integration of the PSI division, and increased overhead in preparation for the Jeep Liberty launch. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses ("SG&A") SG&A expenses for the first quarter 2001 were $6.0 million or 9.4% of net sales compared to $6.5 million or 7.6% of net sales for the first quarter 2000. The decrease of $0.5 million or 8.8% was primarily due to the integration of the PSI division. Advanced Program Expenses Advanced program expenses for the first quarter 2001 were $0.6 million or 1.0% of net sales compared to $0.7 million or 0.8% of net sales for the first quarter 2000. The decrease of $0.1 million or 11.4% was primarily due to cost reductions. Advanced program expenses are the investment in engineering and program management for future programs. Amortization expense Amortization expense for the first quarter 2001 was $0.4 million or 0.6% of net sales compared to $0.4 million or 0.5% of net sales for the first quarter 2000. Interest Expense Interest expense for the first quarter 2001 was $4.7 million or 7.4% of net sales, as compared to $4.6 million or 5.4% of net sales for the first quarter 2000. The increase of $0.1 million or 1.5% was primarily due to the higher balance on the Company's senior credit facility, offset by lower interest rates. Foreign Currency Foreign currency gains and losses all relate to the company's Canadian operation. The foreign currency gain for the first quarter 2001 was $0.3 million or an increase of $0.3 million from the first quarter of 2000. Income Taxes The Company's shareholder's have elected under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code to be treated as an S-Corporation with respect to the Company's U.S. operations. As a result, income taxes relate solely to the Company's Canadian operations. The decrease in taxes was due to the decline in sales and related profitability in Canada. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form 10Q Page 8 9 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The company's primary cash requirements are for working capital, servicing the company's indebtedness and capital expenditures. The company's liquidity is affected by both the cyclical nature of its business and levels of net sales to its major customers. The company's ability to meet its working capital and capital expenditure requirements and debt obligations will depend on its future operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors, certain of which are beyond its control. The company's ability to meet its future cash flow requirements under its existing borrowing agreements and cash flow projections depends upon the outcome of negotiations currently in process with the senior subordinated noteholders, senior bank group, shareholders and management. The outcome of these negotiations cannot be determined at this time. Net cash flow used in operating activities totaled $9.8 million in the first quarter 2001 as compared to $8.4 million used in operating activities in the first quarter 2000. The change compared to the prior year period was due to the increased net loss between periods, offset by favorable changes in working capital. Net cash used in investing activities primarily relates to capital expenditures. Capital expenditures totaled $3.7 million for the first quarter 2001 as compared to $0.3 million for the first quarter 2000. Capital expenditures were primarily for new machinery and equipment on the Chrysler 2003 CS hybrid vehicle and the integration of the PSI division. As compared to the prior year, capital expenditures, excluding the sale-leaseback transaction in February 2000 of $6.4 million, decreased $3.0 million due to the completion of the capital plan for the 2002 Jeep Liberty program ("KJ") and 2001 (RS) minivan. The Company has made significant capital expenditures related to a new production facility and new equipment for the 2002 Jeep Liberty program ("KJ"). Through March 31, 2001, the capital expenditures for KJ production totaled approximately $12.2 million of capital and will launch during the second quarter 2001. Net cash provided by financing activities was $11.8 million for the first quarter 2001 compared to $9.1 million for the first quarter 2000. Financing activities primarily related to incremental borrowings on the Company's senior credit facility to finance the net loss, tooling investments and capital investments. SENIOR CREDIT FACILITY On February 16, 2001 the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with its bank group. This agreement amended and restated financial covenants such that the Company was no longer in default for the quarters ending July 1, September 30 and December 31, 2000 and reset advance rates, removed interim limits and reset financial and other covenants through the original term of the agreement which ends April 27, 2003. In addition, the amendment eliminated as an event of default the existing cross-defaults under the Company's $120 million 9.625% senior subordinated notes for a forty-five day period or until April 2, 2001 to allow the Company to continue negotiations with its noteholders. On March 29, 2001 the Company's senior facility was amended to extend the April 2, 2001 negotiation deadline to April 30, 2001 to allow for continued negotiations with the noteholders. On May 10, 2001, the Company received a partial waiver under its senior credit facility to provide access to the senior credit facility under existing advance rates through May 25, 2001 to allow for continued negotiations with the noteholders. On March 31, 2001 the company had borrowed $76.0 million under the senior credit facility with the availability to borrow an additional $11.0 million subject to borrowing base limitations. SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES Due to liquidity concerns resulting from the performance of the PSI division, sales declines with a major customer and capital investment for new program launches, the Company elected not to make the November 1, 2000 interest payment on its $120 million principal amount 9.625% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 1, 2008. The notes were declared in default on December 1, 2000 following the expiration of a 30-day grace period. On November 30, 2000, the Company's bank group formally exercised its right to block the interest payment for a period of six months. The noteholders retain their rights to accelerate the principal of the notes and exercise other remedies available to them under the terms of the indenture including forcing the Company into an involuntary bankruptcy filing. The Company believes that it currently does not have the ability to either cure the interest payment default or refinance the outstanding notes. Management and shareholders of the Company are continuing negotiations with the Company's noteholders and its bank group to facilitate an exchange of outstanding notes for equity in the Company. This transaction, if successful, would significantly reduce the outstanding indebtedness and interest obligations of the Company. The Company is optimistic that an agreement will be reached in the near future. Upon reaching an agreement, the Company would intend to effect the exchange through a prenegotiated plan of reorganization involving bankruptcy reorganization proceedings in the United States and creditors arrangement proceedings in Canada. Due to the nature of these proceedings, the Company believes the process will be completed on an expeditious basis in 2001. The Company does not anticipate or plan for any impairment of creditors, other than the noteholders and parties to certain unexpired leases during this process and does not anticipate any material change in its operations. If the Company is unsuccessful in its negotiations with the noteholders and its bank group, a deficiency in liquidity would occur which would cause the Company to involuntarily enter bankruptcy proceedings. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form 10Q Page 9 10 EBITDA for the first quarter 2001 was $0.8 million as compared to $5.9 million for the first quarter 2000. This represents an decrease of $5.1 million or 87% as compared to the prior year period. EBITDA is defined as income from operations plus depreciation and amortization and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies. EBITDA is presented because it is a widely accepted non-GAAP financial indicator of a company's ability to incur and service debt. However, EBITDA should not be considered in isolation as a substitute for net income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or as a measure of a company's profitability or liquidity.
