FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued CHRYSLER CORPORATION AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1. Consolidation and Financial Statement Presentation The consolidated financial statements of Chrysler Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Chrysler") include the accounts of all significant majority-owned subsidiaries and entities. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Chrysler for the three and six months ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal and recurring items (with the exception of the items discussed in Note 3), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year. Reference should be made to the consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1993. Amounts for 1993 have been reclassified to conform with current period classifications. Note 2. Inventories Inventories, summarized by major classification, were as follows: 1994 1993 ------------ ----------------------------- June 30 Dec. 31 June 30 ------------ ----------- ------------ (In millions of dollars) Finished products, including service parts $ 993 $ 1,016 $ 1,013 Raw materials, finished production parts and supplies 1,143 1,177 1,007 Vehicles held for short-term lease 1,294 1,436 1,438 ------------ ----------- ------------ TOTAL $ 3,430 $ 3,629 $ 3,458 ============ =========== ============ Note 3. Changes in Accounting Principles Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities Effective January 1, 1994, Chrysler adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." This new accounting standard specifies the accounting and reporting requirements for changes in the fair values of investments in debt and equity securities which have readily determinable fair values. Adoption of this accounting standard did not have a material effect on Chrysler's consolidated financial statements at January 1, 1994. Nonpension Postretirement Benefits Effective January 1, 1993, Chrysler adopted SFAS No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions," which requires the accrual of such benefits during the years the employees provide services. The adoption of this accounting standard resulted in an after-tax charge of $4.68 billion, or $13.86 per common share. This one-time charge represented the immediate recognition of the SFAS No. 106 transition obligation of $7.44 billion, partially offset by $2.76 billion of estimated tax benefits. Implementation of SFAS No. 106 did not increase Chrysler's cash expenditures for nonpension postretirement benefits. Postemployment Benefits Effective January 1, 1993, Chrysler adopted SFAS No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits." This accounting standard requires the accrual of benefits provided to former or inactive employees after employment but prior to retirement. Adoption of this accounting standard resulted in the recognition of an after-tax charge of $283 million, or $0.84 per common share. Adoption of SFAS No. 112 did not increase Chrysler's cash expenditures for postemployment benefits. Previously reported results for the six months ended June 30, 1993 have been restated to reflect the adoption of SFAS No. 112 effective January 1, 1993. 4 7 Item 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued Note 3. Changes in Accounting Principles - Continued Impaired Loans In May 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1994. This new accounting standard requires creditors to evaluate the collectibility of both contractual interest and principal of receivables when evaluating the need for a loss accrual. Chrysler has not determined the impact that the adoption of this accounting standard will have on its consolidated operating results or financial position. Chrysler plans to adopt this standard on or before January 1, 1995, as required. Note 4. Sales of Automotive Assets and Investments During the second quarter of 1994, Chrysler sold certain of the soft trim operations of its Acustar division, and entered into a five-year supply agreement with the purchaser. Aggregate net proceeds from the sale and the supply agreement were approximately $100 million. The related pretax gain of approximately $60 million has been deferred and will be recognized over the term of the supply agreement. During the first quarter of 1994, Chrysler sold the wiring harness operations of its Acustar division, and entered into a five-year supply agreement with the purchaser. Aggregate net proceeds from the sale and the supply agreement were approximately $225 million. The related pretax gain of approximately $196 million has been deferred and will be recognized over the term of the supply agreement. During the second quarter of 1993, Chrysler sold the plastics operations of its Acustar division for net proceeds of $132 million, resulting in a pretax gain of $60 million ($39 million after applicable income taxes). Also during the second quarter of 1993, Chrysler sold an aggregate of 27 million shares of Mitsubishi Motors Corporation for proceeds of $177 million, resulting in a pretax gain of $111 million ($70 million after applicable income taxes). Note 5. Changes in Estimated Service Lives of Fixed Assets During the second quarter of 1994, Chrysler revised the estimated service lives of certain special tools and property and equipment. These revisions were based on updated assessments of the service lives of the related assets and resulted in the recognition of additional amortization of special tools of $89 million and decreased depreciation of property and equipment of $15 million for the second quarter of 1994. 5 8 Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FINANCIAL REVIEW Chrysler Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Chrysler") reported earnings before income taxes of $1.6 billion for the second quarter of 1994, compared with $1.1 billion for the second quarter of 1993. For the first six months of 1994, Chrysler reported earnings before income taxes and the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles of $3.1 billion, compared with $2.0 billion for the comparable period of 1993. Pretax earnings for the second quarter and first six months of 1993 included gains on sales of automotive assets and investments of $171 million. The improvement in operating results in the second quarter and first six months of 1994 over the corresponding periods of 1993 resulted from an increase in sales volume and pricing actions, including lower per unit sales incentives, partially offset by increased employee costs. Chrysler's worldwide factory car and truck sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 1994 were 702,802 units, a 7 percent increase from the second quarter of 1993, and 1,443,400 units, an 11 percent increase over the first six months of 1993. Combined U.S. and Canadian dealers' days supply of vehicle inventory decreased to 45 days at June 30, 1994 from 63 days at December 31, 1993 and 50 days at June 30, 1993. Net earnings for the second quarter of 1994 were $956 million, or $2.61 per common share, compared with $685 million, or $1.86 per common share, in the second quarter of 1993. Net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 1994 were $1.9 billion, compared to a net loss of $3.8 billion for the comparable period of 1993. The net loss for the first six months of 1993 resulted from a charge of $4.7 billion, or $13.86 per common share, for the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle related to the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions." Results for the first six months of 1993 also included a charge of $283 million, or $0.84 per common share, for the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle relating to the adoption of SFAS No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits." In the second quarter of 1994, North American vehicle industry retail sales, on a Seasonally Adjusted Annual Rate basis, were 16.4 million cars and trucks, compared to 15.6 million units for the second quarter of 1993, an increase of 5 percent. Chrysler's U.S. and Canada combined retail car and truck market share for the three and six months ended June 30, 1994 remained consistent with the corresponding 1993 periods, as increases in truck market share were offset by decreases in car market share, as shown in the following table: Second Quarter Six Months ---------------------------------- ---------------------------- Inc./ Inc./ 1994 1993 (Dec.) 1994 1993 (Dec.) -------- -------- -------- -------- ------- -------- U.S. Retail Market Share (1): Car 9.5% 10.0% (0.5) % 9.6% 10.2% (0.6) % Truck 22.9% 22.6% 0.3 % 23.1% 22.5% 0.6 % Combined U.S. Car and Truck 15.0% 15.0% -- 15.1% 15.1% -- U.S. and Canada Combined Retail Market Share (1) 15.4% 15.4% -- 15.6% 15.5% 0.1 % _______________________________ (1) All market share data include fleet sales. The decline in Chrysler's U.S. car market share for the three and six month periods was the result of declines in sales of models which are scheduled to be replaced in the fall of 1994, partially offset by increases in sales of subcompact cars due to the introduction of the Dodge and Plymouth Neon. The increases in U.S. truck market share for the three and six month periods reflect increased sales in the full-size pickup truck and sport-utility market segments, resulting from the introduction of Chrysler's all-new Dodge Ram pickup truck in 1993 and the continued success of Jeep(R) vehicles. 6 9 Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued FINANCIAL REVIEW - Continued Pretax earnings of Chrysler Financial Corporation ("CFC") for the second quarter of 1994 and 1993 were $69 million and $62 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 1994, CFC's earnings before income taxes and the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles were $144 million, compared to $112 million for the comparable period of 1993. The improved results in the second quarter and first six months of 1994 compared to the corresponding periods of 1993 were primarily the result of higher levels of automotive financing and lower provisions for credit losses, partially offset by reduced retail automotive margins. CFC reported net earnings of $44 million in each of the second quarters of 1994 and 1993. CFC's net earnings for the first six months of 1994 and 1993 were $91 million and $51 million, respectively. CFC's net earnings for the first six months of 1993 included charges totaling $30 million for the adoptions of SFAS No. 106 and SFAS No. 112. Chrysler's revenues and results of operations are principally derived from the North American automotive marketplace. During the first six months of 1994, North American automobile industry sales increased from the 1993 levels, as the economic recovery continued. Chrysler experienced sales growth consistent with the North American automobile industry. In response to this continued economic recovery, during the first quarter of 1994 Chrysler revised its productive asset acquisition plans to increase its worldwide production capacity by approximately 500,000 units per year by 1996. These planned capacity expansions increased Chrysler's projected spending for new product development and the acquisition of productive assets, and could result in the hiring of up to 6,000 additional employees by the end of 1996. COMPARISON OF SELECTED ELEMENTS OF REVENUE AND COSTS Chrysler's total sales and revenues for the second quarter and first six months of 1994 and 1993 were as follows: Second Quarter Six Months ---------------------------------- ---------------------------- Inc./ Inc./ 1994 1993 (Dec.) 1994 1993 (Dec.) -------- -------- -------- -------- ------- -------- (In millions of dollars) (In millions of dollars) Sales of manufactured products $ 12,369 $ 10,307 20 % $ 24,920 $ 20,545 21 % Finance and insurance income 330 360 (8)% 673 735 (8)% Other income 383 364 5 % 712 655 9 % --------- --------- --------- -------- Total sales and revenues $ 13,082 $ 11,031 19 % $ 26,305 $ 21,935 20 % ========= ========= ========= ======== The increase in sales of manufactured products in the second quarter of 1994 primarily reflects the 7 percent increase in factory unit sales as compared to the second quarter of 1993, and an increase in the average revenue per unit, net of sales incentives, to $17,676 in the second quarter of 1994. The increase in sales of manufactured products in the first six months of 1994 primarily reflects the 11 percent increase in factory unit sales as compared to the first six months of 1993, and an increase in the average revenue per unit, net of sales incentives, to $17,236 for the six months ended June 30, 1994. The increase in average revenue per unit in both 1994 periods was largely due to sales of a larger proportion of trucks and pricing actions, including lower per unit sales incentives. The decrease in finance and insurance income in the three and six months ended June 30, 1994 as compared to the corresponding 1993 periods was primarily the result of reduced nonautomotive financing revenue, reflecting sales and downsizing of nonautomotive financing operations. Total automotive financing volume in the second quarter and first six months of 1994 was $17.9 billion and $35.0 billion, respectively, compared to $15.6 billion and $29.7 billion for the corresponding 1993 periods. Financing support provided in the U.S. by CFC for new Chrysler vehicle retail deliveries (including fleet) and wholesale vehicle sales to dealers and the number of vehicles financed during the three and six months ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 were as follows: 7 10 Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued COMPARISON OF SELECTED ELEMENTS OF REVENUE AND COSTS - Continued Second Quarter Six Months ---------------------- -------------------- 1994 1993 1994 1993 --------- --------- --------- -------- U.S. Penetration: Retail 24 % 23 % 24 % 23 % Wholesale 75 % 75 % 73 % 73 % Number of New Chrysler Vehicles Financed in the U.S. (in thousands): Retail 149 137 286 248 Wholesale 421 396 844 773 Total costs and expenses for the second quarter and first six months of 1994 and 1993 were as follows: Second Quarter Six Months ---------------------------------- ---------------------------------- Inc./ Inc./ 1994 1993 (Dec.) 1994 1993 (Dec.) -------- -------- -------- -------- ------- -------- (In millions of dollars) (In millions of dollars) Costs, other than items below $ 9,375 $ 8,098 16 % $ 18,981 $ 16,179 17 % Depreciation of property and equipment 230 252 (9)% 506 503 1 % Amortization of special tools 276 177 56 % 506 392 29 % Selling and administrative expenses 997 886 13 % 1,952 1,657 18 % Pension expense 158 173 (9)% 335 386 (13)% Nonpension postretirement benefit expense 204 201 1 % 407 395 3 % Interest expense 249 293 (15)% 482 592 (19)% Gain on sales of automotive assets and investments -- (171) -- -- (171) -- --------- -------- -------- -------- Total costs and expenses $ 11,489 $ 9,909 16 % $ 23,169 $ 19,933 16 % ========= ========= ======== ======== Costs, other than items below increased in the second quarter and first six months of 1994 primarily as a result of increased factory unit sales and sales of an increased proportion of higher-priced vehicles. Costs, other than items below were 76 percent of sales of manufactured products for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 1994, compared to 79 percent for each of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1993. These decreases were primarily attributable to greater capacity utilization and an increased mix of higher-margin vehicles. Depreciation of property and equipment for the second quarter of 1994 declined as compared to the second quarter of 1993 as a result of revisions, effective April 1, 1994, to the estimated service lives of several classes of property and equipment. Special tooling amortization increased significantly in the second quarter and first six months of 1994 compared with the respective 1993 periods primarily as a result of the shortening of the remaining service lives of certain special tools, effective April 1, 1994. The increase in selling and administrative expenses for the 1994 periods, as compared to the 1993 periods, primarily resulted from increased advertising expenses related largely to the introduction of the Dodge and Plymouth Neon, and increased profit-based employee costs. 8 11 Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued COMPARISON OF SELECTED ELEMENTS OF REVENUE AND COSTS - Continued Pension expense decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 1994 as compared to the corresponding periods in 1993 due to the improved funding of the plans (including the $3.5 billion in contributions made in 1993). These decreases were partially offset by the reduction in the discount rate used to measure the projected benefit obligation and scheduled increases in benefits included in the 1993 national contracts with Chrysler's principal collective bargaining units. Nonpension postretirement benefit expense increased slightly in the 1994 periods, as compared to the 1993 periods, due to the decrease in the discount rate used to measure the accumulated nonpension postretirement benefit obligation. The decrease in interest expense for the second quarter and first six months of 1994 was primarily due to lower average borrowings. The reduced average borrowings resulted from CFC's first quarter 1993 sales of its nonautomotive financing operations and Chrysler's early redemption of $769 million of its outstanding debt in the fourth quarter of 1993. CFC's average effective cost of borrowings was 8.4 percent in both the second quarter and first six months of 1994, compared to 8.4 percent and 8.6 percent in the corresponding periods of 1993. The decrease in the six month period primarily reflects lower term debt costs, partially offset by higher short-term interest rates. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Chrysler's combined cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $6.9 billion at June 30, 1994 (including $519 million held by CFC), an increase of $1.8 billion from December 31, 1993. The increase in the first six months of 1994 was the result of cash generated by operating activities, partially offset by pension contributions and capital expenditures. During the first quarter of 1994, Chrysler revised its near-term new product development and productive asset acquisition plans to include various actions intended to increase the capacity at several of its facilities. Chrysler currently expects to spend approximately $21 billion in the 1994 to 1998 period for new product development and the acquisition of productive assets. Chrysler's projected pension benefit obligation in excess of plan assets was $2.2 billion at December 31, 1993. Chrysler contributed $1.3 billion to the pension fund in the first six months of 1994. During the second quarter of 1994, Chrysler announced an objective, subject to a continuation of present general economic, industry and capital market trends, to fully fund the remaining pension obligation by the end of 1994. In order to achieve this objective, Chrysler currently expects that the level of contributions during the remainder of 1994 will be similar to the amount of contributions made during the first six months of 1994. At June 30, 1994, Chrysler (excluding CFC), had debt maturities of $417 million remaining in 1994, $282 million in 1995, and $41 million in 1996. Chrysler believes that cash from operations and its cash position will be sufficient to enable it to meet its capital expenditure, pension, debt maturity and other funding requirements. Chrysler's ability to market its products successfully depends significantly on the availability of inventory financing for its dealers and, to a lesser extent, the availability of financing for retail and fleet purchasers of its products, both of which CFC provides. Receivable sales continued to be a significant source of funding for CFC, which realized $3.5 billion of net proceeds from the sale of retail receivables in the first six months of 1994, compared to $3.7 billion in the first six months of 1993. In addition, CFC's revolving wholesale receivable sale arrangements provided funding which aggregated $4.5 billion and $4.4 billion at June 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively. 9 12 Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - Continued During the second quarter of 1994, CFC replaced its existing U.S. and Canadian credit facilities and receivable sale agreements. The new agreements provide for lower total commitments, less restrictive financial covenants and reductions in borrowing spreads and commitment fees and the removal of security interests in CFC's U.S. assets. At June 30, 1994, CFC had U.S. and Canadian credit facilities totaling $5.2 billion and receivable sale agreements totaling $1.7 billion. At June 30, 1994, no amounts were outstanding under CFC's U.S. and Canadian credit facilities or receivable sale agreements. At June 30, 1994, CFC had debt maturities of $4.1 billion during the remainder of 1994 (including $3.1 billion of commercial paper), $626 million in 1995, and $1.1 billion in 1996. CFC believes that cash provided by operations, receivable sales, and the issuance of term debt and commercial paper will be sufficient to enable CFC to meet its funding requirements. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD In May 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1994. This new accounting standard requires creditors to evaluate the collectibility of both contractual interest and principal of receivables when evaluating the need for a loss accrual. Chrysler has not determined the impact that the adoption of this accounting standard will have on its consolidated operating results or financial position. Chrysler plans to adopt this standard on or before January 1, 1995, as required. REVIEW BY INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS Deloitte & Touche, Chrysler's independent public accountants, performed a review of the financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 in accordance with the standards for such reviews established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The review did not constitute an audit, and accordingly, Deloitte & Touche did not express an opinion on the aforementioned data. Refer to the Independent Accountants' Report included at Exhibit 15A. 10 13 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 4.
