Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(In millions, except share and per share amounts)

Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

General

Dana Holding CorporationIncorporated (Dana) is headquartered in Maumee, Ohio and was incorporated in Delaware in 2007. As a global provider of high technology driveline (axles, driveshafts and transmissions), sealing and thermal-management products our customer base includes virtually every major vehicle manufacturer in the global light vehicle, medium/heavy vehicle and off-highway markets.

The terms "Dana," "we," "our" and "us," when used in this report, are references to Dana. These references include the subsidiaries of Dana unless otherwise indicated or the context requires otherwise.

Summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of presentation — Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information. These statements are unaudited, but in the opinion of management include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentationstatement of the results for the interim periods. The results reported in these consolidated financial statements should not necessarily be taken as indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. The financial information included herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of our 20152016 Form 10-K. Certain prior

We have added the subtotal "Income before interest and income taxes" to our consolidated statement of operations. Interest income, interest expense and loss on extinguishment of debt are presented below the new subtotal but above the subtotal "Income before income taxes." Interest income was previously included in Other expense, net. Prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 20162017 presentation.

In the first quarter of 2015, we identified an error attributable to the calculation of noncontrolling interests net income of a subsidiary. The error resulted in an understatement of noncontrolling equity and noncontrolling interests net income and a corresponding overstatement of parent company stockholders' equity and net income attributable to the parent company in prior periods. Based on our assessments of qualitative and quantitative factors, the error and related impacts were not considered material to the financial statements of the prior periods to which they relate. The error was corrected in March 2015 by increasing noncontrolling interests net income by $9. The correction was not considered material to our 2015 net income attributable to the parent company.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In September 2015,October 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an amendmentAccounting Standard Update (ASU) 2016-16, Income Taxes – Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory, guidance that eliminatessimplifies the requirement to restate prior period financial statements for measurement period adjustments in accounting for business combinations. Entities mustthe income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. GAAP had prohibited the recognition in earnings of current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity transfer until the asset was sold to an outside party or recovered through use. This amendment simplifies the accounting by requiring entities to recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period inincome tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the reporting period intransfer occurs. The new guidance, which the adjustment amounts are determined. This guidance becamerequires modified retrospective application, becomes effective January 1, 2016 and requires prospective application2018 with early adoption permitted in 2017 prior to qualifying business combinations.

In May 2015, the FASB issued guidance that modifies disclosures related to investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value (or its equivalent) per share practical expedient by eliminating the requirement to categorize such assets under the fair value hierarchy. The new guidance also eliminates the requirement to include in certain disclosures those investments that are merely eligible to be measured using the practical expedient, limiting the disclosures to those investments actually valued under that approach. This guidance became effective January 1, 2016 and requires retrospective application. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our year-end pension asset disclosures.
In April 2015, the FASB issued an amendment to provide explicit guidance about a customer's accounting for fees paid in a cloud computing arrangement. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the customer must account for the software license elementissuance of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, then the customer must account for the arrangement as a service contract.interim financial statements. We adopted the newthis guidance effective January 1, 2016. Applying2017. The adoption of the amendment to all arrangements entered into or materially modified afternew guidance resulted in a decrease in Other current assets of $10, a decrease in Other noncurrent assets of $169 and a decrease in Retained earnings at January 1, 2017 of $179.

We also adopted the effective date did not have anfollowing standards during the first quarter of 2017, none of which had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.statements or financial statement disclosures:

In April 2015, the FASB issued guidance to provide for a practical expedient that permits an entity to measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations as of the month end that is closest to the date of a significant event, such as a plan amendment, settlement or curtailment, that calls for a remeasurement in accordance with existing requirements. An entity is


required to disclose the accounting policy election and the date used to measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations. The new guidance was effective January 1, 2016 and did not impact our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB released updated consolidation guidance that entities must use to evaluate specific ownership and contractual arrangements that lead to a consolidation conclusion. The updates could change consolidation outcomes affecting presentation and disclosures. The new guidance was effective January 1, 2016 and did not impact our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued guidance to provide clarity on whether to treat a performance target that could be achieved after the requisite service period as a performance condition that affects vesting or as a nonvesting condition that affects the grant-date fair value of a share-based payment award. Generally, an award with a performance target also requires an employee to render service until the performance target is achieved. In some cases, however, the terms of an award may provide that the performance target could be achieved after an employee completes the requisite service period. The amendment requires that a performance target that affects vesting and extends beyond the end of the service period be treated as a performance condition and not as a factor in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. The new guidance was effective January 1, 2016 and did not impact our consolidated financial statements.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In March 2016,2017, the FASB issued simplificationASU 2017-07, Retirement Benefits – Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost, guidance that requires entities to eliminatepresent the requirement to retrospectively apply the equity methodservice cost component of accounting upon obtaining significant influence over an investment that it previously accounted for under the cost basis or at fair value. That is, it is no longer required to restate all periods as if the equity method had been in effect during all previous periods that the investment had been held. The guidance applies to covered transactions that occur after December 31, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The significance of this guidance for us is dependent on any qualifying future investments.net

In March 2016,

Entities will present all other components of net benefit cost outside operating income, if this subtotal is presented. The amendment clarifies that an exercise contingency does not need to be evaluated to determine whether it relates to interest rates and credit risk in an embedded derivative analysis. That is, a contingent put or call option embedded in a debt instrument would be evaluated for possible separate accounting as a derivative instrument without regardrules related to the naturetiming of when costs are recognized or how they are measured have not changed. This amendment only impacts where those costs are reflected within the exercise contingency.income statement. In addition, only the service cost component will be eligible for capitalization in inventory and other assets.

We are currently evaluating the impactdo not expect this guidance willto have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.statements in the near term as the service components and related net periodic benefit costs are not significantly different.

This guidance becomes effective January 1, 20182020 and canwill be applied on either a prospective basis or a modified retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted.permitted for impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to impact our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations – Clarifying the Definition of a Business, guidance that revises the definition of a business. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting, including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill impairment and consolidation. When substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single asset (or a group of similar assets), the asset acquired would not represent a business. To be considered a business, an acquisition would have to include an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. The new guidance provides a framework to evaluate when an input and a substantive process are present. This guidance becomes effective January 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted.

In November 2016, the FASB released ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows – Restricted Cash, guidance that addresses the diversity in practice in the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows. Amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This guidance becomes effective January 1, 2018 and must be applied on a retrospective basis. This guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated statement of cash flows.

In August 2016, the FASB released ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows – Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, guidance intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are classified in the statement of cash flows. This guidance becomes effective January 1, 2018 and must be applied on a retrospective basis. This guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated statement of cash flows.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Credit Losses – Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, new guidance for the accounting for credit losses on certain financial instruments. This guidance introduces a new approach to estimating credit losses on certain types of financial instruments and modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. This guidance, which becomes effective January 1, 2020, is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issuedASU 2016-02, Leases, its new lease accounting standard. The primary focus of the standard addressesis on the accounting ofby lessees. ItThis standard requires all lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all leases (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease) on the balance sheet. The recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed from previouscurrent GAAP. Operating leases will result in straight-line expense while finance leases will result in a front-loaded expense pattern in the income statement. Quantitative and qualitative disclosures are required to provide insight into the extent of revenue and expense recognized and expected to be recognized from leasing arrangements. This guidance becomes effective January 1, 2019. EarlyApproximately three-fourths of our global lease portfolio represents leases of real estate, including manufacturing, assembly and office facilities, while the remainder represents leases of personal property, including manufacturing, material handling and IT equipment. Many factors will impact the ultimate measurement of the lease obligation to be recognized upon adoption, is permitted.including our assessment of the likelihood of renewal of leases that provide such an option. We are currently evaluatingcontinue to evaluate the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements. This guidance becomes effective January 1, 2019 with early adoption permitted.

In January 2016, the FASB issuedASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, an amendment that addresses the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of certain financial instruments. Investments in equity securities currently classified as available-for-sale and carried at fair value, with changes in fair value reported in other comprehensive income (OCI), will be carried at fair value determined on an exit


price notion and changes in fair value will be reported in net income. The new guidance also affects the assessment of deferred tax assets related to available-for-sale securities, the accounting for liabilities for which the fair value option is elected and the disclosures of financial assets and financial liabilities in the notes to the financial statements. This guidance, which becomes effective January 1, 2018, is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.



In November 2015, the FASB issued guidance that simplifies the balance sheet classification of deferred taxes. Current GAAP requires an entity to separate deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in a classified statement of financial position. This amendment simplifies the presentation to require that all deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. The guidance does not change the existing requirement that only permits offsetting within a jurisdiction. The change to noncurrent classification will have an impact on working capital. This guidance becomes effective January 1, 2017 and allows for prospective or retrospective application, with appropriate disclosures. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued an amendment that changes the measurement principle for inventory from the lower of cost or market to lower of cost and net realizable value. This amendment only addresses the measurement of inventory if its value declines or is impaired. The guidance on determining the cost of inventory is not being amended. This guidance becomes effective January 1, 2017 and requires prospective application. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of this guidance will have no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issuedASU 2014-09, Revenue – Revenue from Contracts with Customers, guidance that requires companies to recognize revenue in a manner that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration a company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The new guidance will also require new disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In July 2015, the FASB adopted a one-year deferral of this guidance. In March 2016, the FASB issued an amendment to clarify the principal versus agent assessment in a revenue transaction. This guidance will be effective January 1, 2018 with the option to adopt the standard as of the original effective date, January 1, 2017.for Dana. The guidance allows for either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective transition method. We are currentlyin the process of assessing our customer contracts, identifying contractual provisions that may result in a change in the timing or the amount of revenue recognized in comparison with current guidance, as well as assessing the enhanced disclosure requirements of the new guidance. Under current guidance we generally recognize revenue when products are shipped and risk of loss has transferred to the customer. Under the proposed requirements, the customized nature of some of our products and contractual provisions in many of our customer contracts that provide us with an enforceable right to payment, may require us to recognize revenue prior to the product being shipped to the customer. We are also assessing pricing provisions contained in certain of our customer contracts. Pricing provisions contained in some of our customer contracts represent variable consideration or may provide the customer with a material right, potentially resulting in a different allocation of the transaction price than under current guidance. In addition, we are evaluating how the new guidance may impact our accounting for customer tooling, engineering and design services and pre-production costs. We continue to evaluate the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Acquisitions

USM – Warren — On March 1, 2017, we acquired certain assets and liabilities relating to the Warren, Michigan production unit of U.S. Manufacturing Corporation (USM). The production unit acquired is in the business of manufacturing axle housings, extruded tubular products and machined components for the automotive industry. The acquisition will increase Dana's revenue from light and commercial vehicle manufacturers and will vertically integrate a significant element of Dana's supply chain. It also provides Dana with new lightweight product and process technologies.

USM contributed certain assets and liabilities relating to its Warren, Michigan production unit to Warren Manufacturing LLC (USM – Warren), a newly created legal entity, and Dana acquired all of the company units of USM – Warren. The company units were acquired by Dana free and clear of any liens. We paid $104 at closing, including $25 to effectively settle trade payable obligations originating from product purchases Dana made from USM prior to the acquisition, and have recorded a receivable of$1 to reflect purchase price adjustments determined under the terms of the agreement. The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination. The purchase consideration and the preliminary allocation to the acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired are presented in the following table:

Total purchase consideration $78
   
Accounts receivable - Trade 17
Inventories 9
Other current assets 4
Goodwill 4
Intangibles 33
Property, plant and equipment 50
Accounts payable (35)
Accrued payroll and employee benefits (3)
Other accrued liabilities (1)
Total purchase consideration allocation $78

The purchase consideration and fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary and could be revised as a result of adjustments made to the purchase price, additional information obtained regarding liabilities assumed and revisions of provisional estimates of fair values, including but not limited to, the completion of independent appraisals and valuations related to property, plant and equipment and intangibles.



Goodwill recognized in this transaction is primarily attributable to synergies expected to arise after the acquisition and the assembled workforce and is deductible for tax purposes. Intangibles includes $30 allocated to customer relationships and $3 allocated to developed technology. We used the relief from royalty method, an income approach, to value developed technology. We used the multi-period excess earnings method, an income approach, to value customer relationships. We used a replacement cost method to value fixed assets. The developed technology and customer relationship intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over eighteen and eleven years, respectively, and property, plant and equipment is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over useful lives ranging from one to twelve years.

The results of operations of the business are reported in our Light Vehicle operating segment from the date of acquisition. As a result of the acquisition, we incurred transaction related expenses totaling $1, which were charged to Other expense, net. The pro forma effects of this acquisition would not materially impact our reported results for any period presented, and as a result no pro forma financial statements are presented. During the first quarter of 2017, the business contributed sales of $11 and a de minimis net loss.

BFP and BPT On February 1, 2017, we acquired 80% ownership interests in Brevini Fluid Power S.p.A. (BFP) and Brevini Power Transmission S.p.A. (BPT) from Brevini Group S.p.A. (Brevini). The acquisition expands our Off-Highway operating segment product portfolio to include technologies for tracked vehicles, doubling our addressable market for off-highway driveline systems and establishing Dana as the only off-highway solutions provider that can manage the power to both move the equipment and perform its critical work functions. This acquisition also brings a platform of technologies that can be leveraged in our light and commercial-vehicle end markets, helping to accelerate our hybridization and electrification initiatives.

We paid $181 at closing, using cash on hand, and intend to refinance debt assumed in the transaction during the first half of 2017. The purchase price is subject to adjustment upon determination of the net indebtedness and net working capital levels of BFP and BPT as of the closing date. The terms of the agreement provide Dana the right to call half of Brevini’s noncontrolling interests in BFP and BPT, and Brevini the right to put half of its noncontrolling interests in BFP and BPT to Dana, assuming Dana does not exercise its call right, after the 2017 BFP and BPT financial statements have been approved by the board of directors. Further, Dana has the right to call Brevini’s remaining noncontrolling interests in BFP and BPT, and Brevini the right to put its remaining noncontrolling interests in BFP and BPT to Dana, assuming Dana does not exercise its call right, after the 2019 BFP and BPT financial statements have been approved by the board of directors. The call and put prices are based on the amount Dana paid to acquire its initial 80% interest in BFP and BPT subject to adjustment based on the actual EBITDA and free cash flows, as defined in the agreement, of BFP and BPT.

The purchase consideration and fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary and could be revised as a result of adjustments made to the purchase price, additional information obtained regarding liabilities assumed and revisions of provisional estimates of fair values, including but not limited to, the completion of independent appraisals and valuations related to property, plant and equipment and intangibles.

Goodwill recognized in this transaction is primarily attributable to synergies expected to arise after the acquisition and the assembled workforce, is not deductible for tax purposes and will be assigned to and evaluated for impairment at the operating segment level. Intangibles includes $29 allocated to customer relationships and $12 allocated to trademarks and trade names. We used the multi-period excess earnings method, an income approach, to value the customer relationships. We used the relief from royalty method, an income approach, to value customer trademarks and trade names. We used a replacement cost method to value fixed assets. We used a discounted cash flow approach to value the redeemable noncontrolling interests, inclusive of the put and call provisions. We used both discounted cash flow and cost approaches to value the noncontrolling interests. The customer relationships and trademarks and trade names intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 17 years, and property, plant and equipment is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over useful lives ranging from three to 30 years.

The results of operations of the businesses are reported in our Off-Highway operating segment from the date of acquisition. As a result of the acquisition, we incurred transaction related expenses totaling $6, which were charged to Other expense, net. The pro forma effects of this acquisition would not materially impact our reported results for any period presented, and as a result no pro forma financial statements are presented. During the first quarter of 2017, the businesses contributed sales of $69 and a net loss of $2.

SIFCO On December 23, 2016, we acquired strategic assets of SIFCO S.A.'s (SIFCO) commercial vehicle steer axle systems and related forged components businesses. The acquisition enables us to enhance our vertically integrated supply chain, which will further improve our cost structure and customer satisfaction by leveraging SIFCO's extensive experience and knowledge of sophisticated forged components. In addition to strengthening our position as a central source for products that use forged and machined parts throughout the region, this acquisition enables us to better accommodate the local content requirements of our customers, which reduces their import and other region-specific costs.

SIFCO contributed the strategic assets to SJT Forjaria Ltda., a newly created legal entity, and Dana acquired all of the issued and outstanding quotas of SJT Forjaria Ltda. The strategic assets were acquired by Dana free and clear of any liens, claims or encumbrances. The acquisition was funded using cash on hand and has been accounted for as a business combination. The purchase consideration and the related allocation to the acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired are presented in the following table:
Purchase price, cash consideration $60

The purchase consideration and fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary and could be revised as a result of adjustments made to the purchase price, additional information obtained regarding liabilities assumed and revisions of provisional estimates of fair values, including but not limited to, the completion of independent appraisals and valuations related to property, plant and equipment and intangibles. The deferred consideration, less any claims for indemnification made by Dana, is to be paid on December 23, 2017.

Goodwill recognized in this transaction is primarily attributable to synergies expected to arise after the acquisition and the assembled workforce, and is deductible for tax purposes. Intangibles includes $2 allocated to developed technology and $1 allocated to trade names. We used the relief from royalty method, an income approach, to value developed technology and trade


names. We used a replacement cost method to value fixed assets. The developed technology and trade name intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over seven and five years respectively, and property, plant and equipment is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over useful lives ranging from three to ten years.

The results of operations of the business are reported in our Commercial Vehicle operating segment from the date of acquisition. As a result of the acquisition, we incurred transaction related expenses totaling $5 during 2016, which were charged to Other expense, net. The pro forma effects of this acquisition would not materially impact our reported results for any period presented, and as a result no pro forma financial statements are presented.

MagnumOn January 29, 2016, we acquired the aftermarket distribution business of Magnum® Gaskets (Magnum), a U.S.-based supplier of gaskets and sealing products for automotive and commercial-vehicle applications, for a purchase price of $18 at closing and additional cash payments of up to $2 contingent upon the achievement of certain sales metrics over a future two-year period. As of the closing date of the acquisition, the contingent consideration was assigned a fair value of approximately $1. Assets acquired included trademarks and trade names, customer relationships and goodwill. The results of operations of Magnum are reported within our Power Technologies operating segment. We acquired Magnum using cash on hand. The pro forma effects of this acquisition would not materially impact our reported results for any period presented, and as a result no pro forma financial statements wereare presented.

Note 3. Disposal Groups

Divestiture of Dana Companies On December 30, 2016, we completed the divestiture of Dana Companies, LLC (DCLLC), a consolidated wholly-owned limited liability company that was established as part of our reorganization in 2008 to hold and Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Disposal of operations in Venezuela In December 2014, we enteredmanage personal injury asbestos claims retained by the reorganized Dana Corporation which was merged into an agreement to divest our Light Vehicle operations in Venezuela (the disposal group) to an unaffiliated company for no consideration. Upon classification of the disposal group as held for sale in December 2014, we recognized an $80 loss to adjust the carrying value of theDCLLC. DCLLC had net assets of our operations$165 at the time of sale including cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and rights to insurance coverage in Venezuelaplace to fair value less costsatisfy a significant portion of its liabilities. We received cash proceeds of $88 – $29 net of cash divested – with $3 retained by the purchaser subject to sell.the satisfaction of certain future conditions that we expect will be achieved in 2017. We recognized a pre-tax loss of $77 in 2016 upon completion of the transaction. In the event the conditions associated with the retained purchase price of $3 are satisfied in the future, income of $3 will be recognized at such time. Following completion of the sale, Dana has no obligation with respect to current or future asbestos claims.

Upon completionDivestiture of Nippon Reinz — On November 30, 2016, we sold our 53.7% interest in Nippon Reinz Co. Ltd. (Nippon Reinz) to Nichias Corporation. Dana received net cash proceeds of $5 and recognized a pre-tax loss of $3 on the divestiture of Nippon Reinz, inclusive of the disposal group in January 2015, we recognized a$12 gain of $5 on the derecognition of the noncontrolling interest in a former Venezuelan subsidiary in other income, net. We also credited other comprehensive loss attributable to the parent for $10 and other comprehensive loss attributable to noncontrolling interests for $1 to eliminate the unrecognized pension expense recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Impairment of long-lived assets — On February 1, 2011, we entered into an agreement with SIFCO S.A. (SIFCO), a leading producer of steer axles and forged components in South America. In return for payment of $150 to SIFCO, we acquired the distribution rights to SIFCO's commercial vehicle steer axle systems as well as an exclusive long-term supply agreement for key driveline components. Our Commercial Vehicle operating segmentinterest. Nippon Reinz had sales attributable to SIFCO supplied axles and parts of $98 and $225$42 in 2015 and 2014.2016 through the transaction date.

This agreement was accounted for as a business combination for financial reporting purposes. The aggregate fair value of the net assets acquired were allocated primarily to the exclusivity provisions of the supply agreement as a contract-based intangible asset and recorded within our Commercial Vehicle operating segment. Fair value was also allocated to fixed assets and an embedded lease obligation. The intangible asset were being amortized and the fixed assets were being depreciated on a straight-line basis over ten years. The embedded lease obligations were being amortized using the effective interest method over the ten-year useful lives of the related fixed assets.



On April 22, 2014, SIFCO and affiliated companies filed for judicial reorganization before Bankruptcy Court in São Paulo, Brazil and an ancillary Chapter 15 proceeding before the Bankruptcy Court of the Southern District of New York. The Brazilian bankruptcy case has subsequently been moved to the 5th Lower Civil Court in the Judicial District of Jundiai, the location of SIFCO's principal operations. Until the third quarter of 2015, SIFCO complied with the terms of the supply agreement. In August 2015, SIFCO discontinued production of our orders and failed to comply with provisions of the supply agreement. We obtained a judicial injunction requiring that SIFCO release any finished product in their possession that was produced pursuant to the supply agreement, resume production and parts supply pursuant to the terms of the supply agreement and cease communications with our customers regarding direct sale of parts. SIFCO contested the injunction we obtained, without success, and refused to comply with injunction. Through a judicial seizure order issued on September 9, 2015, we were successful in obtaining the release of the finished product.

Based on SIFCO's refusal to comply with the terms of the supply agreement and the court injunctions as noted above, we believed that the carrying amount of the contract-based intangible asset is not recoverable and therefore, tested the associated asset group for impairment as of September 30, 2015 under ASC 360-10. Based upon management's conclusion that there were no future economic benefit and related cash flows associated with the long-lived assets of this asset group, which is comprised predominantly of the intangible asset, management concluded that the fair value of the asset group was de minimis and accordingly recorded a full impairment charge of $36 in the third quarter of 2015.

On October 27, 2015, we entered into an interim agreement with SIFCO under which they have continued to supply us product while pursuing various mutually satisfactory longer-term alternatives. While agreeing on suitable short-term arrangements with SIFCO, we have preserved the ability to pursue the legal rights and remedies available to us to enforce compliance with the original supply agreement. Our ability to maintain continued uninterrupted product supply to satisfy our customer commitments is somewhat uncertain, dependent on continued mutually satisfactory interim arrangements with SIFCO and the outcome of their reorganization proceedings.

Note 4. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill — The carrying amount of goodwill attributable to each of our operating segments at March 31, 2016 were as follows: Off-Highway — $84 and Power Technologies — $7. The change in the carrying amount of goodwill in 20162017 is due to currency fluctuation and the acquisitionacquisitions of an aftermarket distribution business.USM – Warren and 80% interests in BFP and BPT. See Note 2 for additional information.

Note 5. Restructuring of Operations

Our restructuring activities have historically included rationalizing our operating footprint by consolidating facilities, positioning operations in lower cost locations and reducing overhead costs. In recent years, however, in response to lower demand and other market conditions in certain businesses, our focus has primarily been headcount reduction initiatives to reduce operating costs. Restructuring expense includes costs associated with current and previously announced actions and is comprised of contractual and noncontractual separation costs and exit costs, including costs associated with lease continuation obligations and certain operating costs of facilities that we are in the process of closing.

During the first quarter of 2016,2017, we continued to execute our previously announced actions. Restructuring expense during the first quarter of 20162017 was $1$2 and primarily represented continuing exit costs.

During the first quarter of 2015,2016, restructuring expense of $1 also primarily represented continuing exit costs associated with previously announced actions.

The future cost to complete includes estimated separation costs, primarily those associated with one-time benefit programs, and exit costs through 2021, including lease continuation costs, equipment transfers and other costs which are required to be recognized as closures are finalized or as incurred during the closure.

Actions approved subsequent to the balance sheet date — During April 2016, we approved and announced the closure of our Commercial Vehicle manufacturing facility in Glasgow, Kentucky. The closure is expected to be completed by mid-2017. Specific actions to implement the closure are still being evaluated. At present, we expect that completion of this action will require cash expenditures in the range of $15 to $20, including restructuring charges for employee separation and equipment relocation costs, capital investment costs for supplier tooling and other exit costs.

Note 6. Stockholders’ Equity

Common stock — Our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of six cents per share of common stock in the first quarter of 2016.2017. Dividends accrue on restricted stock units (RSUs) granted under our stock compensation program and will be paid in cash or additional units when the underlying units vest.

Share repurchase program — Our Board of Directors approved an expansion of our existinga common stock share repurchase program from $1,400up to $1,700 on January 11, 2016.

Note 7. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest

In connection with the acquisition of a controlling interest in Brevini Fluid Power S.p.A. (BFP) and Brevini Power Transmission S.p.A. (BPT) from Brevini Group S.p.A. (Brevini) on February 1, 2017, we recognized $45 for Brevini's 20% redeemable noncontrolling interest. The terms of the divestitureagreement provide Dana the right to call Brevini's noncontrolling
interests in BFP and BPT, and Brevini the right to put its noncontrolling interests in BFP and BPT to Dana, assuming Dana
does not exercise its call rights, at dates and prices defined in the agreement. The call and put prices are based on the amount Dana paid to acquire its initial ownership interest in BFP and BPT subject to adjustment based on the actual EBITDA and free cash flows, as defined in the agreement, of our operations in Venezuela in January 2015, we eliminatedBFP and BPT. See Note 2 for additional information.

Redeemable noncontrolling interests reflected as of the unrecognized pension expense andbalance sheet date are the greater of the redeemable noncontrolling interest relatedbalances adjusted for comprehensive income items and distributions or the redemption values (i.e., the "floor"). Redeemable noncontrolling interest adjustments of redemption value to our former Venezuelan subsidiaries.the floor are reflected in retained earnings and are included as an adjustment to net income available to parent company stockholders in the calculation of earnings per share. There were no current period adjustments to reflect a redemption value in excess of carrying value. See Note 3 for additional information regarding the disposal group held for sale at the end8.

The share count for diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the effects of dilutive common stock equivalents (CSEs) outstanding during the period. We excluded 1.90.5 million and 0.21.9 million CSEs from the calculations of diluted earnings per share in 20162017 and 20152016 as the effect of including them would have been anti-dilutive.





Note 8.9. Stock Compensation
 
The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors approved the grant of RSUs and performance share units (PSUs) shown in the table below during the first quarter of 2016.2017.

* Weighted-average per share

We calculated the fair value of the RSUs at grant date based on the closing market price of our common stock at the date of grant. The number of PSUs that ultimately vest is contingent on achieving specified return on invested capital targets and specified total shareholder returnmargin targets, relative to peer companies. Forwith an even distribution between the portion of the award based on the return on invested capital performance metric, wetwo targets. We estimated the fair value of the PSUs at grant date based on the closing market price of our common stock at the date of grant adjusted for the value of assumed dividends over the period because the award isawards are not dividend protected. For the portion of the award based on shareholder returns, we estimated the fair value of the PSUs at grant date using various assumptions as part of a Monte Carlo simulation. The expected term represents the period from the grant date to the end of the three-year performance period. The risk-free interest rate of 1.00% was based on U.S. Treasury constant maturity rates at the grant date. The dividend yield of 1.40% was calculated by dividing the expected annual dividend by the average stock price over the prior year. The expected volatility of 33.4% was based on historical volatility over the prior three years using daily stock price observations.

We received $4 of cash from the exercise of stock options related to 0.3 million shares. We paid $1 of cash to settle RSUs during 2016 and issued 0.4 million shares of common stock based on the vesting of RSUs.RSUs during 2017. We recognized stock compensation expense of $4 and $2 during the first quarter of 2017 and $3 during 2016 and 2015.2016. At March 31, 2016,2017, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to the nonvested awards granted and expected to vest was $34.$36. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.42.2 years. 






Note 9.10. Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans

We have a number of defined contribution and defined benefit, qualified and nonqualified, pension plans covering eligible employees. Other postretirement benefits (OPEB), including medical and life insurance, are provided for certain employees upon retirement.

Pension expense was a credit of $1 for 2017 increased modestly versus the three months ended March 31, 2016, unchanged from the comparablesame period in 20152016 as the effecta result of a lower assumed return on plan assets was offset by a reductionand an increase in amortization of the net actuarial loss in the interest component. Approximately $4 of the reduction in interest resulted from adopting a full yield curve approach to estimating interest expense effective at the beginning of 2016. The new method applies the specific spot rates along the yield curve used in the most recent remeasurement of the benefit obligation, resulting in a more precise estimate.U.S.

*In conjunction with the issuance of the June 2026 Notes we entered into two 10-year fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps which have the effect of economically converting the June 2026 Notes to euro-denominated debt at a fixed rate of 5.140%. See Note 13 for additional information.



Interest on the senior notes is payable semi-annually. Other indebtedness includes borrowings from various financial institutions, capital lease obligations, and the unamortized fair value adjustment related to a terminated interest rate swap.swap and the financial liability related to a build-to-suit lease. The increase in other indebtedness during the first quarter of 2017 is primarily due to our acquisition of BPT and BFP. See Note 122 for additional information regarding the acquisition and Note 13 for additional information on the terminated interest rate swap.

Senior notes — On December 9, 2014, we electedApril 4, 2017, Dana Financing Luxembourg S.à r.l., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dana, issued $400 in senior notes (April 2025 Notes) at 5.750%. The April 2025 Notes were issued through a private placement and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act). The April 2025 Notes were offered only to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act and, outside the United States, only to non-U.S. investors in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act. The April 2025 Notes rank equally with Dana's other unsecured senior notes. Interest on the notes is payable on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on October 15, 2017. The April 2025 Notes will mature on April 15, 2025. Net proceeds of the offering totaled $394. Financing costs of $6 will be recorded as deferred costs and amortized to interest expense over the life of the notes. The proceeds from the offering will be used to repay indebtedness of our BPT and BFP subsidiaries and indebtedness of a wholly-owned subsidiary in Brazil and to redeem $40$100 of our previously outstanding February 2019September 2021 Notes. In conjunction with the issuance of the April 2025 Notes, effective January 8, 2015we entered into eight-year fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps which have the effect of economically converting the April 2025 Notes to euro-denominated debt at a fixed rate of 3.850%. See Note 13 for additional information.

At any time prior to April 15, 2020, we may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the April 2025 Notes in an amount not to exceed the amount of proceeds of one or more equity offerings, at a price equal to 103.000%105.750% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date, provided that at least 50% of the original aggregate principal amount of the April 2025 Notes remains outstanding after the redemption.

Prior to April 15, 2020, we may redeem some or all of the April 2025 Notes at a redemption price of 100.000% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date plus a “make-whole” premium. We have not separated the make-whole premium from the underlying debt instrument to account for it as a derivative instrument as the economic characteristics and the risks of this embedded derivative are clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the underlying debt.

We may redeem some or all of the April 2025 Notes at the following redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on April 15 in the years set forth below:

Year Redemption Price
2020 104.313%
2021 102.875%
2022 101.438%
2023 100.000%
2024 100.000%

During April 2017, we redeemed $100 of our September 2021 Notes pursuant to a tender offer at a weighted average price equal to 104.031% plus accrued and unpaid interest. The $5 loss on extinguishment of debt to be recorded in April 2017 includes the redemption premium and transaction costs associated with the tender offer and the write-off of $1 of previously deferred financing costs associated with the September 2021 Notes.

On March 16, 2015,June 23, 2016, we redeemed the remaining $15all of our February 20192021 Notes at a price equal to 103.250%103.375% plus accrued and unpaid interest. The $2$16 loss on extinguishment of debt includes the $12 redemption premium and the $4 write-off of previously deferred financing costs associated with the February 20192021 Notes.

Revolving facilityOn June 9, 2016, we entered into a new $500 revolving credit facility (the Revolving Facility) which matures on June 9, 2021. The Revolving Facility refinanced and replaced our previous revolving credit facility. In connection with the Revolving Facility, we paid $3 in deferred financing costs to be amortized to interest expense over the life of the facility. We wrote off $1 of previously deferred financing costs associated with our prior revolving credit facility to loss on extinguishment of debt. Deferred financing costs on our Revolving Facility are included in Other noncurrent assets.



The Revolving Facility is guaranteed by all of our wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions, including exceptions for Dana Credit Corporation and its subsidiaries (the guarantors), and grants a first-priority lien on substantially all of the assets of Dana and the guarantors, subject to certain exceptions.

Advances under our $500 revolving facilitythe Revolving Facility bear interest at a floating rate based on, at our option, the base rate or LIBOREurodollar rate (each as described in the revolving credit agreement) plus a margin based on the undrawn amounts available under the agreement as set forth below:

Up to $300275 of the revolving facilityRevolving Facility may be applied to letters of credit, which reduces availability. We pay a fee for issued and undrawn letters of credit in an amount per annum equal to the applicable LIBOR margin for Eurodollar rate advances based on a quarterly average availability under issued and undrawn letters of credit under the revolving facilityRevolving Facility and a per annum fronting fee of 0.125%, payable quarterly.



There wereAs of March 31, 2017, we had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving facility at March 31, 2016 butRevolving Facility and we had utilized $37$23 for letters of credit. Based on our borrowing base collateral of $341, weWe had potential availability at March 31, 20162017 under the revolving facilityRevolving Facility of $304$477 after deducting the outstanding borrowings and letters of credit.

Debt covenants — At March 31, 20162017, we were in compliance with the covenants of our financing agreements. Under the revolving facilityRevolving Facility and the senior notes, we are required to comply with certain incurrence-based covenants customary for facilities of these types.types and, in the case of the Revolving Facility, a maintenance covenant requiring us to maintain a first lien net leverage ratio not to exceed 2.00 to 1.00.

Note 12.13. Fair Value Measurements and Derivatives

In measuring the fair value of our assets and liabilities, we use market data or assumptions that we believe market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability including assumptions about risk when appropriate. Our valuation techniques include a combination of observable and unobservable inputs.

Fair value measurements on a recurring basis — Assets and liabilities that are carried in our balance sheet at fair value are as follows:

* The carrying value includes the unamortized portion of a fair value adjustment related to a terminated interest rate swap.
*The carrying value includes the unamortized portion of a fair value adjustment related to a terminated interest rate swap at both dates. The carrying value and fair value also include a financial liability associated with a build-to-suit lease arrangement at both dates.

The fair value of our senior notes is estimated based upon a market approach (Level 2) while the fair value of our other indebtedness is based upon an income approach (Level 2). See Note 12 for additional information about financing agreements.

Fair value measurements on a nonrecurring basis — Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These are long-lived assets that are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances. These assets include intangible assets and property, plant and equipment which may be written down to fair value when they are held for sale or as a result of impairment.

Interest rate derivatives — Our portfolio of derivative financial instruments periodically includes interest rate swaps designed to mitigate our interest rate risk. As of March 31, 2016,2017, no fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps remain outstanding. However, an $8a $7 fair value adjustment to the carrying amount of our December 2024 Notes, associated with a fixed-to-floating interest rate swap that had been executed but was subsequently terminated during 2015, remains deferred at March 31, 2016.2017. This amount is being amortized as a reduction of interest expense through the period ending December 2024, the scheduled maturity date of the December 2024 Notes. The amount amortized as a reduction of interest expense was not material during the first quarter of 2016.ended March 31, 2017.

Foreign currency derivatives — Our foreign currency derivatives include forward contracts associated with forecasted transactions, primarily involving the purchases and sales of inventory through the next seventeenfifteen months, as well as currency swaps associated with certain recorded external notes payable and intercompany loans receivable and payable. Periodically, our foreign currency derivatives also include net investment hedges of certain of our investments in foreign operations.

During February 2017, in conjunction with the issuance of an aggregate $15 of U.S. dollar-denominated short-term notes payable by one of our Brazilian subsidiaries (the "Brazilian Notes"), we executed fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps with the same critical terms as the Brazilian Notes. Additionally, in conjunction with the issuance of €281 of euro-denominated intercompany notes payable, issued by certain of our Luxembourg subsidiaries (the "Luxembourg Intercompany Notes") and payable to USD-functional Dana, Inc., we executed fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps with the same critical terms as the Luxembourg Intercompany Notes. The risk management objective of these swaps is to eliminate the variability in the functional-currency-equivalent cash flows due to changes in the U.S. dollar / Brazilian real and euro / U.S. dollar exchange rates associated with the forecasted principal and interest payments on the respective underlying instruments.

During March 2017, in conjunction with the planned April 2017 issuance of the $400 of U.S. dollar-denominated April 2025 Notes by euro-functional Dana Financing Luxembourg S.à r.l., we executed fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps with the same critical terms as the April 2025 Notes to eliminate the variability in the functional-currency-equivalent cash flows due to changes in the U.S. dollar / euro exchange rates associated with the forecasted principal and interest payments.

During May 2016, in conjunction with the issuance of the $375 of U.S. dollar-denominated June 2026 Notes by euro-functional Dana Financing Luxembourg S.à r.l., we executed fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps with the same critical terms as the June 2026 Notes to eliminate the variability in the functional-currency-equivalent cash flows due to changes in the U.S. dollar / euro exchange rates associated with the forecasted principal and interest payments.



All of the underlying designated financial instruments, and any subsequent replacement debt, have been designated as the hedged items in each respective cash flow hedge relationship, as shown in the table below. Designated as cash flow hedges of the forecasted principal and interest payments of the underlying designated financial instruments, or subsequent replacement debt, all of the swaps economically convert the underlying designated financial instruments into the functional currency of each respective holder. The impact of the interest rate differential between the inflow and outflow rates on all fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps is recognized during each period as a component of interest expense.

All of the swaps are expected to be highly effective in offsetting the corresponding currency-based changes in cash outflows related to the underlying designated financial instruments. Based on our qualitative assessment that the critical terms of all of the underlying designated financial instruments and all of the associated swaps match and that all other required criteria have been met, we do not expect to incur any ineffectiveness. As effective cash flow hedges, changes in the fair value of the swaps will be recorded in OCI during each period. Additionally, to the extent the swaps remain effective, the appropriate portion of AOCI will be reclassified to earnings each period as an offset to the foreign exchange gain or loss resulting from the remeasurement of the underlying designated financial instruments. See Note 12 for additional information about the June 2026 Notes and the April 2025 Notes.

In the event our ongoing assessment demonstrates that the critical terms of either the swaps or the underlying designated financial instruments have changed, or that there have been adverse developments regarding counterparty risk, we will use the long haul method to assess ineffectiveness of the hedging relationship. To the extent the swaps are no longer effective, changes in their fair values will be recorded in earnings. During the first quarter of 2017, deferred losses of $11 associated with all of the fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps were recorded in OCI and reflect the net impact of a $17 unfavorable change in the fair value of the swaps and a $6 reclassification from AOCI to earnings. The reclassification from AOCI to earnings represents an offset to a foreign exchange remeasurement gain on all of the designated debt instruments outstanding during the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

The total notional amount of outstanding foreign currency forward contracts, involving the exchange of various currencies, was $191 as of $200 at March 31, 20162017 and $212 as of $143 at December 31, 2015.2016.

Cash flow hedges — With respect to contracts designated as cash flow hedges, changes in fair value during the period in which the contracts remain outstanding are reported in other comprehensive income (OCI)OCI to the extent such contracts remain effective. Effectiveness is measured by using regression analysis to determine the degree of correlation between the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument and the change in the associated foreign currency exchange rates. Changes in fair value of contracts not designated as cash flow hedges or as net investment hedges are recognized in other income,Other expense, net in the period in which the changes occur. Realized gains and losses from currency-related forward contracts, including those that have been designated as cash flow hedges and those that have not been designated, are recognized in other income,Other expense, net.

Net investment hedges — We periodically designate derivative contracts or underlying non-derivative financial instruments as net investment hedges. With respect to contracts designated as net investment hedges, we apply the forward method, but for non-derivative financial instruments designated as net investment hedges, we apply the spot method. Under both methods, we report changes in fair value in the cumulative translation adjustment (CTA) component of OCI during the period in which the contracts remain outstanding to the extent such contracts and non-derivative financial instruments remain effective.

During the first quarter of 2017, we designated the principal amount of an existing non-derivative Mexican peso-denominated intercompany note payable (the "MXN-denominated intercompany note") by Dana European Holdings Luxembourg S.à r.l. to Dana de Mexico Corporacion S. de R.L. de C.V., one of our Mexican subsidiaries, as a net investment hedge of the equivalent portion of the investment in the associated Mexican operations. At March 31, 2017, the principal amount of the MXN-denominated intercompany note is 1,465 Mexican pesos, or approximately $78.

During the first quarter of 2017, we recorded a deferred loss of $5 in the CTA component of OCI associated with the MXN-denominated intercompany note. Amounts recorded in CTA remain deferred in AOCI until such time as the investments in the associated subsidiaries are substantially liquidated. See also Note 6.

Amounts to be reclassified to earnings — Deferred gains or losses associated with effective cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions are reported in AOCI and are reclassified to earnings in the same periods in which the underlying transactions affect earnings. Amounts expected to be reclassified to earnings assume no change in the current hedge relationships or to March 31, 20162017 exchange rates. Deferred lossesgains of $1$3 at March 31, 20162017 are expected to be reclassified to earnings during the next twelve months, compared to deferred losses of $4$2 at December 31, 20152016. Amounts reclassified from AOCI to earnings arising from the discontinuation of cash flow hedge accounting treatment were not material during the first quarter of 2016.2017.



Note 13.14. Commitments and Contingencies
 
Asbestos personal injury liabilities — As part of our reorganization in 2008, assets and liabilities associated with personal injury asbestos claims were retained in Dana Corporation which was then merged into Dana Companies, LLC (DCLLC), a consolidated wholly-owned limited liability company. The assets of DCLLC include insurance rights relating to coverage against these liabilities, marketable securities and other assets which are considered sufficient to satisfy its liabilities. DCLLC had approximately 25,000 active pending asbestos personal injury liability claims at both March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. DCLLC had accrued $75 for indemnity and defense costs for settled, pending and future claims at March 31, 2016, compared to $78 at December 31, 2015. A fifteen-year time horizon was used to estimate the value of this liability.
At March 31, 2016, DCLLC had recorded $49 as an asset for probable recovery from insurers for the pending and projected asbestos personal injury liability claims, compared to $51 recorded at December 31, 2015. The recorded asset represents our assessment of the capacity of our current insurance agreements to provide for the payment of anticipated defense and indemnity costs for pending claims and projected future demands. The recognition of these recoveries is based on our assessment of our right to recover under the respective contracts and on the financial strength of the insurers. DCLLC has coverage agreements in place with insurers confirming substantially all of the related coverage and payments are being received on a timely basis. The financial strength of these insurers is reviewed at least annually with the assistance of a third party. The


recorded asset does not represent the limits of the insurance coverage, but rather the amount DCLLC would expect to recover if the accrued indemnity and defense costs were paid in full.
DCLLC continues to process asbestos personal injury claims in the normal course of business, is separately managed and has an independent board member. The independent board member is required to approve certain transactions including dividends or other transfers of $1 or more of value to Dana. Dana Holding Corporation has no obligation to increase its investment in or otherwise support DCLLC.
Other productProduct liabilities — We had accrued $14 and $5 for non-asbestos product liability costs at March 31, 20162017 and December 31, 20152016, with no and $4 for an expected recovery expected from third parties at either date.both dates. We estimate these liabilities based on assumptions about the value of the claims and about the likelihood of recoveries against us derived from our historical experience and current information.

Environmental liabilities — Accrued environmental liabilities were $10$7 at March 31, 20162017 and $11$8 at December 31, 20152016. We consider the most probable method of remediation, current laws and regulations and existing technology in estimating our environmental liabilities.

Guarantee of lease obligations — In connection with the divestiture of our Structural Products business in 2010, leases covering three U.S. facilities were assigned to a U.S. affiliate of Metalsa. Under the terms of the sale agreement, we will guarantee the affiliate’s performance under the leases, which run through June 2025, including approximately $6 of annual payments. In the event of a required payment by Dana as guarantor, we are entitled to pursue full recovery from Metalsa of the amounts paid under the guarantee and to take possession of the leased property.

Other legal matters — We are subject to various pending or threatened legal proceedings arising out of the normal course of business or operations. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of such matters, we cannot state what the eventual outcome of these matters will be. However, based on current knowledge and after consultation with legal counsel, we believe that any liabilities that may result from these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.

In November 2013, we received an arbitration notice from Sypris Solutions, Inc. (Sypris), formerly our largest supplier, alleging damage claims under the long-term supply agreement that expired on December 31, 2014. The arbitration proceedings related to these claims concluded in the second quarter of 2015 with Sypris being awarded immaterial damages. Sypris also alleged that Dana and Sypris entered into a new binding long-term supply agreement in July 2013. Dana filed suit against Sypris requesting declaratory judgment that the parties did not enter into a new supply agreement. During the first quarter of 2015, the court granted summary judgment in Dana’s favor, rejecting Sypris’ position that a new contract was formed in July 2013. The Ohio Sixth District Court of Appeals upheld the summary judgment ruling in December 2015 and that decision is no longer subject to appeal. It is uncertain whether Sypris will pursue its remaining claim that Dana failed to negotiate in good faith under the 2007 agreement. Dana maintains that this claim is without merit.

On September 25, 2015, the Brazilian antitrust authority (“CADE”) announced an investigation of an alleged cartel involving a former Dana business in Brazil and various competitors related to sales of shock absorbers between 2000 and 2014. We divested this business as a part of the sale of our aftermarket business in 2004. Dana’s policy is to cooperate with governmental investigations. We cannot predict the duration, scope or ultimate outcome of this matter. Based on the information currently available to us, we do not believe this matter will result in a material liability to Dana.

Note 14.15. Warranty Obligations

We record a liability for estimated warranty obligations at the dates our products are sold. We record the liability based on our estimate of costs to settle future claims. Adjustments to our estimated costs at time of sale are made as claim experience and other new information becomes available.


Obligations for service campaigns and other occurrences are recognized as adjustments to prior estimates when the obligation is probable and can be reasonably estimated.

Note 15.16. Income Taxes

We estimate the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year and use that rate to provide for income taxes in interim reporting periods. We also recognize 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.

We have generally not recognized tax benefits on losses generated in several entities including those in the U.S., where the recent history of operating losses does not allow us to satisfy the “more likely than not” criterion for the recognition of deferred tax assets. Consequently, there is no income tax expense or benefit recognized on the pre-tax income or losses in these jurisdictions as valuation allowances are adjusted to offset the associated tax expense or benefit.

We record interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. Net interest expense for the periods presented herein is not significant.



We reported income tax expense related to operations of $24$30 and $31$24 for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. Our effective tax rates were 29% and 33% in 2017 and 2016, and 2015. Therespectively, with $3 from the amortization of the prepaid tax asset increasing the rate in 2016. Our effective income tax rates vary from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% due to establishment, release and adjustment of valuation allowances in several countries, nondeductible expenses, local tax incentives in several countries outside the U.S., different statutory tax rates outside the U.S. and withholding taxes related to repatriations of international earnings to the U.S. Tax expense in 2016 included $3 from the amortization of a prepaid tax asset related to an intercompany transaction completed in 2015. Our effective tax rates were 33% and 30% in 2016 and 2015.earnings.

We provide for U.S. federal income and non-U.S. withholding taxes on the earnings of our non-U.S. operations that are not considered to be permanently reinvested. Accordingly, we continue to analyze and adjust the estimated tax impact of the income and non-U.S. withholding tax liabilities based on the amount and source of these earnings. As part of the annual effective tax rate, we recognized net expense of $2 and $1 for the quarters ended March 31,in 2017 and 2016 and 2015 related to future income taxes and non-U.S. withholding taxes on repatriations from operations that are not permanently reinvested. We also paid withholding taxes of $2 and $1 during the first quarter of2017 and 2016 and 2015 related to the actual transfer of funds to the U.S. and transfers of funds between foreign subsidiaries.

At March 31, 2016, we have a valuation allowance against our deferredThe adoption of new accounting guidance at the beginning of 2017 resulted in the $179 write-off of certain tax assets, primarily a prepaid tax recorded in conjunction with the U.S. When evaluating the continued need for this valuation allowance we consider all components of comprehensive income, and we weight the positive and negative evidence, putting greater reliance on objectively verifiable historical evidence than on projections of future profitability that are dependent on actions that have not occurred as of the assessment date. We also consider changes to historical profitability of actions occurring in the year of assessment that have a sustained effect on future profitability, the effect on historical profits of nonrecurring events, as well as tax planning strategies. These effects included items such as the lost future interest income resulting from the prepayment on and subsequentintercompany sale of the payment-in-kind callable note receivable, the additional interest expense resulting from the $750 senior unsecured notes payable issued in July 2013 and the effects of the intercompany transfer of an affiliate's stock and certain operating assets by a U.S. subsidiary of the company to a non-U.S. affiliate. A sustained period of profitability, after considering historical changes from implemented actions and nonrecurring events, along with positive expectationsaffiliate in 2015. See Note 1 for future profitability are necessary for a determination that a valuation allowance should be released. Our U.S. operations have experienced improved profitability in recent years, but our analysis of the income of the U.S. operations, including changes to the historical income for the effects of developments through the current date and planned future actions, demonstrated historical losses as of March 31, 2016. Therefore, we have not achieved a level of sustained historical profitability that would, in our judgment, support a release of the valuation allowance at March 31, 2016.additional information.

Management Overview

Dana is headquartered in Maumee, Ohio, and was incorporated in Delaware in 2007.

Operational and Strategic Initiatives

In 2016 we outlined our current enterprise strategy which leverages our strong technology foundation and our commitment to continuous improvement. Our strategy places increased focus leveraging resources across the organization, satisfying customer requirements, expanding products and markets and accelerating commercialization of new technology.

Central to our strategy is leveraging our core operations by sharing our capabilities, technology, assets and people across the enterprise, leading to improved execution and increased customer satisfaction. Although we have taken significant strides to improve our profitability and margins, particularly through streamlining and rationalizing our manufacturing activities, we believe additional opportunities remain to further improve our cost performance. Leveraging investments across multiple end markets and making disciplined, value enhancing acquisitions, will allow us to bring product to market faster, grow our top-line sales and enhance financial returns.

Strengthening customer centricity and expanding global markets are key elements of our strategy that focus on market penetration. Foundational to growing the business is directing the entire organization to putting the customer at the center of our value system and shifting from transactional to relationship-based interactions. These relationships are built on a foundation of providing unparalleled technology with exceptional quality, delivery and value. With even stronger relationships we will be better positioned to support our customers’ most important global and flagship programs and capitalize on future growth opportunities.

We continue to enhance and expand our global footprint, optimizing it to capture growth across all of our end markets. Specifically, our manufacturing and technology center footprint positions us to support customers globally – an important factor as many of our customers are increasingly focused on common solutions for global platforms. While growth opportunities are present in each region of the world, we have a primary focus on building our presence and local capability in the Asia Pacific region. Over the past severallast few years, we have focusedopened two new engineering facilities in the region and recently new gear manufacturing facilities were established in India and Thailand.

In addition to Asia, we see further growth opportunity in Eastern Europe where we've commenced construction of a new gear manufacturing facility in Hungary. This will be our third facility in the country and will give us the capability to cost effectively manufacture gears, one of our core technologies, and efficiently service our customers within the region.

The final two elements of our enterprise strategy, commercializing new technology and accelerating hybridization and electrification, focus on maintainingopportunities for product expansion. Bringing new innovations to market as industry leading products will drive growth as our new products and technology provide our customers with cutting edge solutions, address end user needs and capitalize on key market trends. An example is our industry leading electronically disconnecting all-wheel drive technology, which we believe is the most fuel efficient rapidly disconnecting system in the market, was recently selected by a strong overall financial position — driving profitabilitymajor global customer for a significant new global vehicle platform – opening up new commercial channels for us in the passenger car, crossover and sport utility vehicle markets.

Initiatives to capitalize on evolving hybridization and electrification vehicle trends are a core ingredient of the current strategy. In addition to our current technologies in battery cooling and fuel cells, this element of the strategy is leveraging our electronics controls expertise across all our business units and applications such as advanced vehicle hybridization and electrification initiatives. We are working with customers to develop new solutions for those markets where electrification will be adopted first such as hybrids, buses and urban delivery vehicles. These new solutions, which include advanced electric propulsion systems with fully integrated motors and controls, are included in our business, simplifying our capital structure, maintaining strong cash flowsrecently launched Spicer Electrified portfolio of products.

The development and addressing structural costs. We have also strengthened and streamlined our operating segmentsimplementation of this enterprise strategy is positioning Dana to grow profitably over the next few years due to increased customer focus onas we leverage our core competencies of drivelinecapabilities, expand into new markets, develop and commercialize new technologies sealing systemsincluding for hybrid and thermal management. With an experienced leadership team, we believe that we are well-positioned to place increasing focus on profitable growth and shareholder returns.

Shareholder returns and capital structure actions — When evaluating capital structure initiatives, we balance our growth opportunities and shareholder value initiatives with maintaining a strong balance sheet and access to capital. Our strong financial position has enabled us to simplify our capital structure while providing returns to our common shareholders in the form of cash dividends and reduction in the number of common share equivalentsshares outstanding. Over the past threefour years, we returned $1,400$1,481 of cash to shareholders in connection with redemption of all of our preferred stock and repurchase of common shares. From program inception in 2012 through December 31, 2015,2016, we repurchased 67approximately 74 million shares, inclusive of the common share equivalent reduction resulting from redemption of preferred shares. In January 2016,Remaining share repurchase authorization under the

program approved by our Board of Directors approved the expansion of our share repurchase program from $1,400 to $1,700, and during the first quarter of 2016 we repurchased 2.3 million shares for $28. Additionally, weis $219. We declared and paid quarterly common stock dividends over the past four years, raising the dividend from five cents to six cents per share in the second quarter of 2015.

We have taken advantage of the lower interest rate environment to refinance our senior notes at lower rates while extending the maturities. In December 2014 and the first quarter of 2015, we completed the redemption of our senior notes maturing in 2019, replacing them with senior notes having lower interest rates and maturing in 2024. Additionally, inDuring the fourthsecond quarter of 2014,2016, we redeemed notes maturing in 2021, replacing them with notes maturing in 2026. In April 2017, we completed a voluntary program offered$400 note offering, the proceeds of which will be used to deferred vested salaried participants in our U.S. pension plans. With this program, we reduced plan benefit obligations by $171 with lump sum paymentsextend maturities on nearly $400 of $133 from plan assets.

Technology leadership — With a clear focus on market-based value drivers, global-mega trends and customer sustainability objectives and requirements, we are driving innovation to create differentiated value for our customers, enabling a “market pull” product pipeline. Our sealing and thermal engine expertise provides us with early insight into some of the critical design factors important to our customers. When combined with our drivetrain expertise, we are able to collaborate with our customers on complete power conveyance solutions, from the engine through the vehicle driveline. We are committed to making investments and diversifying our product offerings to strengthen our competitive position in our core driveline, sealing and thermal technologies businesses, creating value for our customers through improved fuel efficiency, emission control, electric and hybrid electric solutions, durability and cost of ownership, software integration and systems solutions. Our industry leading electronically actuated disconnecting all wheel drive technology, which we believe is the most fuel efficient rapidly disconnecting system in the market, was recently selected by one of our major customers for a significant new global vehicle platform - opening up new commercial channels for us in the passenger car, crossover and sport utility vehicle markets. A strategic alliance with Fallbrook Technologies Inc. (Fallbrook) provides us the opportunity to leverage leading edge continuously variable planetary (CVP) technology into the development of advanced drivetrain and transmission solutions for customers in our light vehicle and off-highway markets.

Additional engineering and operational investment is being channeled into reinvigorating our product portfolio and capitalizing on technology advancement opportunities. Combined engineering centers of our Light Vehicle and Commercial Vehicle segments allow us the opportunity to better share technologies among these businesses. New engineering facilities in India and China were opened in the past few years and are now on line, more than doubling our engineering presence in the Asia Pacific region with state-of-the-art development and test capabilities that globally support each of our businesses. Additionally, in 2014, we opened a new technology center in Cedar Park, Texas to support our CVP technology development initiatives.

Geographic expansion — Our manufacturing and technology center footprint positions us to support customers globally - an important factor as many of our customers are increasingly focused on common powertrain solutions for global platforms. While growth opportunities are present in each region of the world, we have a primary focus on building our presence and local capability in the Asia Pacific region, especially India and China. In addition to new engineering facilities in those countries, new gear manufacturing facilities were recently established in India and Thailand. We have expanded our China off-highway activities and we believe there is considerable opportunity for growth in this market.indebtedness at significantly lower interest rates.

Aftermarket opportunities — We have a global group dedicated to identifying and developing aftermarket growth opportunities that leverage the capabilities within our existing businesses – targeting increased future aftermarket sales. In January 2016, we completed the acquisition of Magnum®Magnum® Gaskets' (Magnum) aftermarket distribution business which includes the Magnum brand, product portfolio, existing customer contracts and distribution rights. The Magnum brand is the third largest aftermarket sealing brand in the U.S. and Canada, providing us with access to new customers for sealing products and an additional aftermarket channel for other products.

Selective acquisitions — Our current acquisition focus is to identifyprincipally directed at “bolt-on” or adjacent acquisition opportunities that have a strategic fit with our existing core businesses, particularly opportunities that support our growth initiativesenterprise strategy and enhance the value proposition of our customer product offerings. Any potential acquisition will be evaluated in the same manner we currently consider customer program opportunities and other uses of capital – with a disciplined financial approach designed to ensure profitable growth and increased shareholder value.

North America

Light vehicle markets — Improving economic conditions during the past few years have contributed to increased light vehicle sales and production levels in North America. ReleaseOverall economic conditions in North America continue to be relatively favorable with improving employment levels and upward trending consumer confidence. There continues, however, to be considerable uncertainty with the recent transition to new government leadership in the United States, and the potential impact on the economy of future actions initiated by the new administration. The North America light vehicle market is beginning to show signs of weakening demand levels. Strong sales levels the past few years have significantly addressed built-up demand to replace older vehicles, greater availabilityvehicles. Increasing interest rates, high levels of credit, stronger consumer confidencedebt and other factorsdeclining used car prices are developments that are likely to constrict demand for new vehicles. To date, these effects have combined to stimulate new vehiclebeen most notable in passenger car sales. LightWhile first-quarter 2017 light vehicle sales in 2015 increased about 6%2% from 2014, with2016, passenger car sales that year being up 6%declined by about 4% from 2013. Thethe first quarter of 2016. Helped by continued low fuel prices, light truck market demand continued to be relatively strong in early 2016 with this year's first quarter, with sales up 7% from the same period of 2015.compared to last year. Many of our programs are focused in the full frame light truck segment. Sales in this segment were especially strong the past two years, being up about 9% in 2015 and 8% in 2014.5%. Production levels were reflective of the stronger light vehicle sales. Production of approximately 17.54.5 million light vehicles in 2015the first quarter of 2017 was 3%2% higher than in 2014, after2016, with passenger car production increased aboutdown 4% and light truck production 5% the preceding year.higher. Light vehicle engine production was similarly higher, up 2%impacted more by developments in 2015the passenger car segment and 6% in 2014.down 1% from last year's first quarter. In the key full frame light truck segment, first-quarter 2017 production levels


increased about 8% in 20155% compared with an increaseto the same period of 6% in 2014. Production levels in the first quarter of this year continued to follow the sales pattern, with light vehicle production higher than last year's first quarter by about 5%, light vehicle engine build up 9% and full frame light truck production up 17%.2016. Days’ supply of total light vehicles in the U.S. at the end of March 20162017 was around 65, up slightly from 61 days at December 2015 and 58 days at the end of March 2015. In the full frame light truck segment, this year's strong first quarter production raised inventory levels at the end of March to 7572 days, up from 62 days at the end of 2015December 2016 and 6766 days at the end of March 2015.

Looking ahead to2016. In the remainder of 2016, we believe the North American markets will continue to be relatively strong. Generally improved employment levels, low fuel prices and relatively stable consumer confidence are expected to provide a favorable economic climate. We've increased our current outlook for 2016, with light vehicle engine production now expected to be around 16.0 to 16.5 million units and full frame light truck segment, inventory levels increased to 83 days at the end of March 2017, up from 65 days at the end of December 2016 and 76 days at the end of March 2016.

For the remainder of 2017, we expect a generally solid economic climate in North America. However, with the strength in this market the past couple years, we believe slightly lower production expectedlevels are likely. Our full year 2017 outlook for light


vehicle engine production is 15.8 to be in the range of 4.3 to 4.416.2 million units, increasesflat to an increase of 42% compared with 2016. In the full frame light truck segment where the past two years have been especially strong, our 2017 production outlook is 4.2 to 4.3 million units, a decrease of 3 to 6% from 2015.2016.

Medium/heavy vehicle marketsSimilar toThe commercial vehicle market is similarly impacted by many of the same macroeconomic developments impacting the light vehicle market,market. Strong production levels in the commercial vehicleheavy truck segment benefitedin 2014 and first half of 2015 led to more trucks than required for freight demand. As a consequence, production levels in 2016 and 2017 have been scaled back. Class 8 production in the first quarter of 2017 is down approximately 26% from an improvingfirst-quarter 2016 production levels. Demand and production levels in the medium duty segment have been aligned and relatively stable, more commensurate with the relatively slow, steady economic growth in North America economy in recent years, leading to increased mediumAmerica. Medium duty Classes 5-7 truck production in this year's first quarter was down about 4% compared with the past two years. After increasing 12% in 2014, medium duty production increased another 4% in 2015. In the first three months of 2016.

Class 8 segment,order levels have been improving in recent months, and production levels increased 21% in 2014 and another 8% in 2015for the remainder of the year are expected to around 323,000 units. Medium duty production has been relatively stableimprove sequentially from this year's first quarter. Although we have maintained our February outlook for full year with first quarter 2016 production being up about 2% from the same period last year. In the Class 8 segment, order levels and production began declining in the second half of 2015. As expected, first quarter 20162017 Class 8 production is about 19% lower than last year's first quarter.

This year's first- quarter light vehicle engine production was similarly down 16%up 12% compared to the same period in 20142016 and another 22% in 2015. During the first quarterlight truck production was higher by about 25%. Pending further evidence of 2016, we've seen continuing market weaknesssustained improvement our full year 2017 outlook for South America light vehicle markets is unchanged from February, with this year's first quarter light truck production up 2 to 7% and light vehicle engine production being lower than any quarter of 2015. Year-over-year first quarter light truck and light vehicle engine production was 14% and 29% lower than last year. With the region now expecteddown 2 to be somewhat weaker over the full year, we've lowered our 2016 outlook to levels that are flat to down 15%7% compared with 2015.2016. The Asia Pacific markets have been relatively strong the past few years. Light truck production increased 9%8% in 20142015 and was up another 8%14% in 2015,2016, while light vehicle engine production increased 3%2% in 20142015 and another 1%7% in 2015.2016. This year's first quarter exhibited signs of continuing growth in the region. First quarter 20162017 light vehicle engine build increased 4% and light truck production in the region was uphigher by 7% when compared with the same period of 2015, with year-over-year first-quarter light vehicle engine build being comparable.last year. Our full year outlooks are unchanged. We expect to see continued growth in 2016, with year-over-year2017 outlook for the Asia Pacific light vehicle markets has light truck production being flat to updown 4% and light vehicle engine production being higher by about 3down 1% to 5%.up 2% compared with 2016.

Medium/heavy vehicle markets — Some of the same factors referenced above that affected light vehicle markets outside of North America similarly affected the medium/heavy markets, albeit with improvements in the medium/heavy truck market being a little slower to manifest. Signs of a strengthening European market emerged in 2015 and 2016 with medium/heavy truck production increasing about 9% each year. Market strengthening continued in 2015 being up about 10%the first quarter of 2017 with first quarter production increasing by 5% compared with the same period last year. Our full year outlook is unchanged from the preceding year. In this year's first three months,February, reflecting 2017 medium/heavy truck production increased about 2%being flat to down 7% compared withto last year's first quarter. For the full year 2016, our outlook is unchanged. We expect Europe medium/heavy truck production to be up modestly from 2015.year. A weakening South America economic climate beginning in 2014 led to medium/heavy truck production declining about 23%47% in 20142015 and another 49%20% in 2015.2016. As with the light vehicle markets, we've seen additional weakness in South America in early 2016. Sequentially, first quarter truck production was about the same as last year's fourth quarter but down 18% compared with last year's third quarter. With the demand having weakened over the coursewe have begun to see some signs of 2015, the year-over-year first quarter medium/heavy truck production comparison reflects a decrease of about 35%. With South America now expected to be somewhat weaker, we've lowered our full year 2016 outlook reflecting a year-over-year decline in medium/heavy truck production of around 9 to 20%. The medium/heavy truck market in Asia Pacific


was sluggish the past two years, being up a modest 3% in 2014 and declining about 12% in 2015 as a slowdown in the China market materialized. While the China market is expected to be comparable to up modestly in 2016, an improving India market is expected to help improve productioneconomic conditions in the region. First quarter 2016First-quarter 2017 medium/heavy truck production was up about 11%5% from the same period last, and we believe continuing improvement is likely as we move through 2017. Our full year 2017 outlook is unchanged at 75,000 to 85,000 units, an increase of 7 to 21% from 2016. A stronger than expected China market and an improving India market contributed to higher medium/heavy truck production in the Asia Pacific region of about 20% in 2016. Production in this year's first quarter was especially strong – up 32% from the first quarter of last year. ForThis year's strong first quarter was driven in part by impending regulations in China that limit axle load and weight which accelerated buying during the full yearlast half of 2016 and into 2017 prior to the new regulations becoming effective. We expect to see lower second half 2017 production and have maintained our February outlook is unchanged with medium/heavy truck production expectedoutlook for the region being about 7 to be 1 to 5% higher13% lower than in 2015.2016.



Off-Highway Markets — Our off-highway business has a large presence outside of North America, with more thanapproximately 75% of its sales coming from Europe and more than 10%15% from South America and Asia Pacific combined. We serve several segments of the diverse off-highway market, including construction, agriculture, mining and material handling. Our largest markets are the construction/mining and agricultural equipment segments. After experiencing increased global demand in 2011 and 2012, these marketssegments which have been relatively weak over the past threefew years. Global demand in the agriculture market was down about 11% in 2014, and 7% in 2015.2015 and 5% in 2016. The construction/mining segment weakened about 4% in 2014, and 11% in 2015. We currently expect these markets to be somewhat weaker than2015 and 3% in 2016. During this year's first quarter, we experienced an uplift in overall market demand. Although we've maintained our previous outlook in February, with demand levels in both segmentsfull year outlooks, we believe the high end of outlooks are now expected to range from flat to down 4% compared to 2015.more likely.

Foreign Currency and Brexit Effects

Weaker international currencies relative to the U.S. dollar have had a significant impact on our sales and results of operations the past few years. The United Kingdom's decision to exit the European Union ("Brexit") has provided further uncertainty and potential volatility around European currencies, along with uncertain effects of future trade and other cross-border activities of the United Kingdom with the European Union and other countries. With new government leadership in 2015.the U.S. assuming control in early 2017, there is added uncertainly around future economic and trade policy and its potential impact on the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies. Approximately 54% of our consolidated first-quarter 2017 sales were outside the U.S., with euro zone countries, Mexico, Brazil and Brazilthe United Kingdom accounting for approximately 41%42%, 8%, 8% and 7%6% of our non-U.S. sales. The potential impact of future U.S. economic and trade policy has led to significant weakening of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar since the U.S. presidential election in November 2016. Although sales in Argentina and South Africa are each less than 5% of our non-U.S. sales, exchange rate movements of those countries have also significantly impacted sales. Translation of our international activities at average exchange rates in 2015 as compared to average rates in 2014 reduced sales by $516, with $268 attributable to a weaker euro and $91 to a weaker Brazil real. In this year's first quarter,2016, weaker international currencies compared to last year's first quarter reduced sales by $72.another $173. A weaker BrazilArgentine peso, British pound, Mexican peso, South African rand and Brazilian real and Argentina peso reduced South America sales by $29,$70, $23, $19, $18 and $11. The euro was relatively stable in 2016. Weaker international currencies are expected to be a headwind to sales again in 2017. First-quarter 2017 sales were adversely impacted by $6 due to currency translation as compared to the same period in 2016, with a weaker euro, British pound and South Africa rand reducing Europe regionMexican peso being partially offset by a stronger Brazilian real. Based on our current sales and exchange rate outlook, which includes a somewhat stronger Brazilian real than previously forecast, we expect the full year 2017 impact of currency translation to reduce sales by $16.about $75. Our current full year 2016 sales2017 outlook anticipates overall weaker international currencies reducing year-over-year sales by $200 to $300, withis based on an assumed euro/U.S. dollar rate of 1.05 to 1.10, to 1.05 anda U.S. dollar/Brazil real rate of 3.50 to 4.00, a British pound/U.S. dollar rate of 1.20 to 4.25. A1.30 and a U.S. dollar/Mexican peso rate of 20.00 to 22.00. At sales levels in our current outlook for 2017, a 5% movement on the euro andwould impact our annual sales by approximately $65 to $75. A 5% change on the Brazil real, British pound, Mexican peso, Thailand baht and China yuan rates would impact 2016our annual sales in our outlookeach of those countries by approximately $65 and $10 respectively.to $20.

Brazil Market

The Brazil market is an important market for our Commercial Vehicle segment, representing about 17% of this segment's first-quarter 2017 sales. Our medium/heavy truck sales in Brazil account for more than 75% of our total sales in the country. Reduced market demand resulting from the weak economic environment in Brazil in 2015 has led to production levels in the light vehicle and medium/heavy duty vehicletruck markets that arewere lower by about 22% and 44% from 2014. Continued weakness in 2016 resulted in further reductions in medium/heavy truck production of about 20% and a light vehicle production decline of around 10%. As a consequence, sales by our operations in Brazil for 2015 were $240,2016 approximated $200, down from $505 the preceding year. Continuing weakness occurredabout $500 in this year's first quarter, with light vehicle production being about 13% lower than last year's fourth quarter and about 21% lower than last year's third quarter. Sequentially, first-quarter 2016 medium/heavy truck production was comparable with last year's fourth quarter and about 17% lower than last year's third quarter. The full year outlook for Brazil now has light vehicle production down about 15% and medium/heavy truck production lower by about 11% from 2015. Our medium/heavy duty presence is particularly significant, with approximately 75% of our 2015 and first-quarter 2016 Brazil sales originating in our Commercial Vehicle operating segment.2014. In response to the challenging economic conditions in this country, we implemented restructuring and other cost reduction actions in 2015the past two years and continue to trim costs to the extent practicable. As discussed in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1, onewe completed a transaction in December 2016 that provided us with the underlying assets and personnel supporting our pre-existing business with a supplier along with some incremental business. With this transaction, we have enhanced our competitive position in the market and should benefit significantly in future years as the Brazilian markets rebound. As indicated above, first quarter 2017 vehicle production levels in South America were higher than the same period of our major supplierslast year. Brazil was a significant contributor to that performance with light truck production in this year's first quarter being higher by more than 30% and medium/heavy truck production being up about 3%. The first-quarter performance is operating with judicial oversight under reorganization proceedingsan indication perhaps of the onset of improving market conditions in Brazil. We are continuing to operate under an interim agreement with this supplier while continuing to evaluate alternatives to ensuring continued uninterrupted product supply to satisfy our customer commitments.

Commodity Costs

The cost of our products may be significantly impacted by changes in raw material commodity prices, the most important to us being those of various grades of steel, aluminum, copper and brass. The effects of changes in commodity prices are reflected directly in our purchases of commodities and indirectly through our purchases of products such as castings, forgings, bearings and component parts that include commodities. Most of our major customer agreements provide for the sharing of significant commodity price changes with those customers. Where such formal agreements are not present, we have historically


been successful implementing price adjustments that largely compensate for the inflationary impact of material costs. Material cost changes will customarily have some impact on our financial results as customer pricing adjustments typically lag commodity price changes.

Lower commodity prices decreased our costs by approximately $7 in the first three months of 2016, while higherHigher commodity prices increased our costs by approximately $2$5 in the first quarter of 2017, while in the same period of 2015.2016 lower commodity prices decreased costs by $7. Material recovery and other pricing actions reducedincreased first-quarter 2017 sales by about $8 in this$2 and reduced last year's first three months, while first-quarter 2015quarter sales were increased by $15 from such actions.

Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures. See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures discussion below for definitions of our non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to the most directly comparable U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) measures. We have not provided a reconciliation of our adjusted EBITDA outlook to the most comparable GAAP measure of net income. Providing net income guidance is potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting event driven transactional and other non-core operating items that are included in net income, including restructuring actions, asset impairments and income tax valuation adjustments. The accompanying reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures with the most comparable GAAP measures for the historical periods presented are indicative of the reconciliations that will be prepared upon completion of the periods covered by the non-GAAP guidance.

During the past threetwo years, weaker international currencies relative to the U.S. dollar were the most significant factor reducing our sales. LowerThe sales reduction attributable to currency over the three-year period approximated $900, with a reduction of more than $500 occurring in 2015. We divested our Venezuela operation in Januaryduring 2015 which further reduced consolidated sales by approximately $100.and 2016 was $689. Adjusted for currency and divestiture effects, sales in the past two years were relatively comparable, with new customer programs largely offsetting the impacts of overall weaker end user demand across our sales have been relatively stable.global businesses. We experienced uneven end user markets, with some being relatively strong and others somewhat weak, and the conditions across the regions of the world differing quite dramatically. New business with customers has largely offset the lower sales attributable to overall weaker end user demand. Our February outlook for 2016 includes additionalfull year 2017 sales included the Brevini acquisition which closed February 1, 2017. Our net new business backlog will increase sales by about $175, with overall stronger market demand also expected to contribute to higher sales. Partially offsetting these increases are currency headwinds from further weakening of international currencies inagainst the range of $200 to $300. Increased sales from new business coming on line in 2016 isU.S. dollar that are currently expected to partially offsetreduce 2017 sales by about $75. With the currency related reduction, withclosing of the USM transaction on March 1, 2017, we have maintained our February outlook at $6,200 to $6,400, but now expect to be at the high end user market demand remaining relatively comparable to 2015.of the range.

Over the past three years, adjustedAdjusted EBITDA margin as a percent of sales has remained relatively constant at around 11% despite certain markets being weak and volatile. Where practicable, we have aligned our cost with weaker demand levels in certain markets. We continue to focus on margin improvement through right sizing and rationalizing our manufacturing operations, implementing other cost reduction initiatives and ensuring that customer programs are competitively priced. With a continued focus on cost and new business coming on at competitive rates, we expect to see a slight margin improvement in 2016. Further margin improvement following 2016beyond 2017 is anticipated as we expect to see increased end user demand in certain markets, along with continued benefit from additional new business and cost reduction actions. As with sales, we have maintained our February outlook for full year 2017 Adjusted EBITDA, but with the closure of the USM transaction this past quarter, we currently expect to be near the upper end of the range.

Free cash flow in 2014 benefited2015 declined from the receipt of $40 of interest from the sale of an in-kind note receivable. Lower pension contributions, restructuring payments and cash taxes also benefited free cash flow in 2014, while increased new program launches resulted in higher capital spending. The lower free cash flow in 2015 is primarilyprevious year due to lower earnings and increased capital spend to support new program launches, with lower cash taxes and restructuring payments providing a partial offset. During the first quarter ofReduced free cash flow in 2016 we were successfulis primarily attributable to our continued success in being selected by certainawarded significant new customer programs.

Althoughthe recent program wins are not scheduled to begin production until 2018, these programs will requirerequired capital investment duringbeginning in 2016. As such, cash used for capital investments in 2016 was $62 higher than in 2015. An elevated level of capital spending will continue into 2017, with such expenditures expected to approximate $350 to $370. The USM transaction resulted in first-quarter 2017 free cash flow being reduced by $25 as a portion of the remainder of this year.cash paid at closing was treated as having effectively settled trade payables owed to USM for product purchases prior to the acquisition. As such, we now expect to be nearer the low end of our February outlook for full year 2017 free cash flow. The


higher level of earnings in our businesses for the year will largely offset the increased our expectedlevel of capital spend, resulting in 2017 free cash flow that is relatively comparable to the preceding year. The higher level of capital spend in 2016 by $40recent years associated with increased new program launches is expected to a range of $320 to $340 and correspondingly reduced our 2016 free cash flow outlook to $120 to $140.

Among our Operational and Strategic Initiatives are increased focus on and investment in product technology – delivering products and technology that are key to bringing solutions to issues of paramount importance to our customers. This, more than anything, is what will position us for profitable future growth. Our success on this front is measured, in part, by our sales backlog which is net new business received that will be launching in the future and adding to our base annual sales. This backlog excludes replacement business and represents incremental sales associated with new programs for which we have received formal customer awards. At December 31, 2015,2016, our sales backlog of net new business for the 20162017 through 20182019 period was $750. This current backlog comparesis comparable to aour three-year sales backlog at the end of 20142015, with new business wins that approximated $680 when adjusted for current exchange ratesadded sales approximating $150 being offset by reductions to the backlog to reflect the effects of weaker international currencies relative to the U.S. dollar and marketreduced demand – an increase of 10%.levels now expected during the three-year period.

Sales in the first quarter of 20162017 were $159 lower$252 higher than in the same period in 2015.2016. Weaker international currencies decreased sales by $72.$6. The acquisitions of BFP, BPT, SIFCO, USM – Warren and Magnum in 2016 and 2017 generated a quarter-over-quarter increase in sales of $91, with the divestiture of Nippon Reinz providing a reduction of $11. A volume-related organic sales decreaseincrease of $81$178 resulted primarily from weakerstronger light truck markets, strengthening global Off-Highway demand lower commercial vehicle productionand contributions from new business. Reduced demand levels in North America and Brazil and lower sales with a majorthe North America commercial vehicle customer, partiallymarket provided a partial offset by stronger overall light vehicle volume levels in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. Cost recovery pricing actions reduced sales by an additional $8.to the volume-related organic increase.

The North America organic sales reductionincrease of 6%14% was driven principally by stronger production levels on certain of our key light truck programs. Partially offsetting the higher light vehicle demand was a decline in Class 8medium/heavy truck production of about 19%, reduced sales levels with a major commercial vehicle customer and weaker Off-Highway demand. These effects were partially offset by increases in full frame light truck production of around 17% and in light vehicle engine build of 9% and by higher sales from new customer programs.15%.

Excluding these effects, sales were down 18%up 29% from the same period in 2015.first quarter of 2016. The organic sales decreaseincrease in the region was primarily driven largely by lowerstronger production levels, with light truck production up about 25% and medium/heavy truck production levels, which were down about 35%, and a decrease in light truck production of about 14%higher by 5%.



Asia Pacific sales in this year's first quarter were relatively comparable to 2015. Weaker currencies in Thailand, India and China contributed to7% higher than the currency-related sales reduction.same period of 2016. The 5% organic sales increase resultedof 6% in this region was due primarily from increasedto stronger light vehicle production levels in the regionand off-highway segment demand, along with contributions from new customer programs.

Cost of sales and gross margin — Cost of sales declined $130, or 9%, infor the first quarter of 20162017 increased $188, or 15%, when compared to the same period in 2015.2016. Similar to the factors affecting sales, the reductionincrease was primarily due to currency effects and lowerhigher overall sales volumes.volumes and the inclusion of acquired businesses.

Underabsorptionsales attributed to net acquisitions, which included $6 of the incremental cost assigned to inventory as part of business combination accounting, amounted to $72, or 90.0% of the sales of those businesses. Excluding the effects of acquisitions and divestitures, cost of sales as percent of sales declined from 86.2% of sales in the first quarter of 2016 to 84.2% of sales in 2017 – a resultreduction of lower sales volumes contributed to the increase200 basis points.

Of the $10 million year-over-year first-quarter increase exclusive of net acquisitions, salary and benefits expenses in the first quarter of 2016 were comparable to 2015$5 higher, while selling expense and other discretionary spending declined $2.increased $5.


Amortization of intangibles — The reduction of $3increase in amortization of intangibles is primarily attributable to certain customer related intangibles becomingacquired as part of the acquisitions completed in late 2016 and the first quarter of 2017 was offset by reduced expense from fully amortized.amortized intangibles.

Restructuring charges — Restructuring charges in both periods were attributablerelate to ongoing exit costs associated with previously announced facility closure and realignmentrestructuring actions.

During April 2016, we approved and announced the closure of our Commercial Vehicle manufacturing facility in Glasgow, Kentucky. The closure is expected to be completed by mid-2017. Specific actions to implement the closure are still being evaluated. At present, we expect that completion of this action will require cash expenditures in the range of $15 to $20, including restructuring charges for employee separation and equipment relocation costs, capital investment costs for supplier tooling and other exit costs.

Upon completionThe higher level of strategic transaction expenses in 2017 is primarily attributable to the divestitureBrevini and USM transactions which were completed in the first quarter of our operations in Venezuela in January 2015, we recognized a $5 gain on the derecognition of the noncontrolling interest in one of our former Venezuelan subsidiaries.2017. See Notes 3 and 16Note 17 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of Part I for additional information.

LossInterest income and interest expense — Interest income was $3 in both 2017 and 2016. Interest expense was $27 in both 2017 and 2016. A lower average interest rate on extinguishment ofborrowings was offset by higher average debt Actions to refinance a portion of our long-termlevels in 2017. Average debt that commenced in the fourth quarter of 2014levels were completedhigher in the first quarter of 2015,2017 than in last year's first quarter, in part due to debt of $182 assumed in connection with expense recognized for the call premium incurredBrevini acquisition. As discussed in Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of Part I, Dana Financing Luxembourg S.à r.l. issued $375 of its June 2026 Notes on May 27, 2016 and we redeemed $350 of our February 2021 Notes on June 23, 2016. In conjunction with the write-offissuance of unamortizedthe June 2026 Notes, we entered into two 10-year fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps which have the effect of economically converting the June 2026 Notes to euro-denominated debt at a fixed rate of 5.140%. Through intercompany financing costsarrangements and associated with debt extinguishedfixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps in the first quarter of 2015.

Interest expense — Interest expense was $27 and $28 in 2016 and 2015.2017, we effectively converted the fixed U.S. dollar rate on our September 2023 Notes to a fixed euro rate of 3.91%. Average effective interest rates, inclusive of amortization of debt issuance costs, approximated 5.9% and 6.5% in both 20162017 and 2015.2016.




Income tax expense — Income taxtaxes expense for the first quarter was $24$30 in 2017 and $31$24 in 2016, resulting in effective tax rates of 29% and 2015.33%, respectively. The effective income tax rates vary from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to valuation allowances in several countries, nondeductible expenses, different statutory rates outside the U.S. and withholding taxes. TheJurisdictions with effective tax rates lower than the U.S. tax rate was 33%of 35% decreased the overall effective rate in both years. Tax expense in 2016 as compared to 30% in 2015. In 2016, the primary factors for the effective rate being less than the 35% U.S. statutory rate included the jurisdictional profit mix and valuation allowance effects partially offset by tax expense$3 of $3 from the amortization of a prepaid tax asset related to an intercompany transaction completed in 2015. The primary factors for 2015 wereAs disclosed in Note 1 of the jurisdictional profit mix and valuation allowance effects.consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of Part I, we adopted new accounting guidance in 2017 which resulted in the prepaid tax asset at the beginning of 2017 being written off directly to retained earnings. Accordingly, there is no amortization expense relating to the prepaid tax asset in 2017.

In the U.S. and certain other countries where our recent history of operating losses doesdid not allow us to satisfy the “more likely than not” criterion for recognition of deferred tax assets. Therefore, there isassets, we have generally recognized no income tax recognized on the pre-tax income or losses in these jurisdictions as valuation allowance adjustments offset the associated tax effects. See Note 15 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1Following the release of Part I for a discussion of the factors considered in our quarterly evaluation of the valuation allowances againston our U.S. deferred tax assets.assets in the fourth quarter of 2016, tax effects relating to U.S. income in 2017 are no longer being offset by adjustments to the valuation allowance.

Equity in earnings of affiliates — Net earnings from equity investments werewas $5 in 2017 compared with de minimis earnings in 2016 and $1 in 2015.2016. Equity in earnings from Bendix Spicer Foundation Brake, LLC (BSFB) ofwere $3 in 2017 and $2 in 2016 were offset by a loss2016. Our share of $2 from Dongfeng Dana Axle Co., Ltd. (DDAC).

Noncontrolling interests net incomeAsThe increased level of earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests is generally attributable to increased earnings of the consolidated operations that are less than wholly-owned. The redeemable noncontrolling interest relates to the Brevini business we acquired in the first quarter of 2017 on which we have a call option as described more fully discussed in Note 1 to our2 of the consolidated financial statements in Item 1 the first quarter of 2015 included $9 for correction of previously reported noncontrolling interests net income.Part I.

The currency-related reductionCurrency effects which increased sales in sales wasthe first quarter of 2017 were primarily due to a weakeryear-over-year stronger Brazil real and Mexico peso.real. The acquisition of the SIFCO business late in 2016 contributed $10 to first-quarter 2017 sales. After adjusting for the effects of currency and acquisitions, 2016 sales in our Commercial Vehicle segment decreased 18%6% compared to 2015.2016. The volume-related reduction was primarily attributable to weakerlower sales in North America where Class 8 production was down about 26%, medium duty Classes 5-7 production was down 4% and a program having sales of $24 was transfered to the Light Vehicle segment who began supplying the axle for the program in mid-2016.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA

We have defined adjusted EBITDA as earnings from operationsnet income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, equity grant expense, restructuring expense and other adjustments not related to our core operations (gain/loss on debt extinguishment, pension settlements, or divestitures, impairment, etc.). Adjusted EBITDA is a primary driver of cash flows from operations and a measure of our ability to maintain and continue to invest in our operations and provide shareholder returns. We use adjusted EBITDA in assessing the effectiveness of our business strategies, evaluating and pricing potential acquisitions and as a factor in making incentive compensation decisions. In addition to its use by management, we also believe adjusted EBITDA is a measure widely used by securities analysts, investors and others to evaluate financial performance of our company relative to other Tier 1 automotive suppliers. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for income before income taxes, net income or other results reported in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Free Cash Flow

We have defined free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment. We believe this measure is useful to investors in evaluating the operational cash flow of the company inclusive of the spending required to maintain the operations. Free cash flow is neither intended to represent nor be an alternative to the measure of net cash provided by operating activities reported under GAAP. Free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Cash deposits are maintained to provide credit enhancement for certain agreements and are reported as part of cash and cash equivalents. For most of these deposits, the cash may be withdrawn if a comparable security is provided in the form of letters of credit. Accordingly, these deposits are not considered to be restricted.

Marketable securities are included as a component of global liquidity as these investments can be readily liquidated at our discretion.

Cash and marketable securities of $143 held by a wholly-owned subsidiary at March 31, 2016 can be transferred out of this subsidiary only if approved by its independent board member. Accordingly, accessing this component of global liquidity is uncertain.

A portion of the non-U.S. cash and cash equivalents is utilized for working capital and other operating purposes. Several countries have local regulatory requirements that significantly restrict the ability of our operations to repatriate this cash. Beyond these restrictions, there are practical limitations on repatriation of cash from certain subsidiaries because of the resulting tax withholdings and subsidiary by-law restrictions which could limit our ability to access cash and other assets.

The principal sources of liquidity available for our future cash requirements are expected to be (i) cash flows from operations, (ii) cash and cash equivalents on hand and (iii) borrowings from our revolving facility. We believe that our overall liquidity and operating cash flow will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for capital expenditures, working capital, debt obligations, common stock repurchases and other commitments during the next twelve months. While uncertainty surrounding the current economic environment could adversely impact our business, based on our current financial position, we believe it is unlikely that any such effects would preclude us from maintaining sufficient liquidity.

In April 2017, Dana Financing Luxembourg S.à r.l. completed the issuance of $400 of its April 2025 Notes. Net proceeds of the offering totaled $394. The net proceeds from the offering will be used to repay indebtedness of our BPT and BFP subsidiaries and indebtedness of a wholly-owned subsidiary in Brazil and to redeem $100 of our September 2021 Notes. The $100 of September 2021 Notes were extinguished in April 2017 pursuant to a tender offer at a weighted average price equal to 104.031% plus accrued and unpaid interest.

From time to time, depending upon market, pricing and other conditions, as well as our cash balances and liquidity, we may seek to acquire our senior notes or other indebtedness or our common stock through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers, exchange offers or otherwise, upon such terms and at such prices as we may determine (or as may be provided for in the indentures governing the notes), for cash, securities or other consideration. There can be no assurance that we will pursue any such transactions in the future, as the pursuit of any alternative will depend upon numerous factors such as market conditions, our financial performance and the limitations applicable to such transactions under our financing and governance documents.

The table above summarizes our consolidated statement of cash flows.

Operating activities — Exclusive of working capital, other cash provided by operations was $144 and $101 in 2017 and $121 in 2016 and 2015.2016. The year-over-year decreaseincrease in other cash provided by operations is primarily attributable to lowerhigher operating earnings in 2016.2017. Partially offsetting the stronger earnings performance were increased first-quarter 2017 payments for restructuring actions and transaction costs associated with acquisitions.

Working capital used cash of $133 and $128 in 2017 and $141 in 2016 and 2015.2016. Cash of $129$189 and $173$132 was used to finance increased receivables in 20162017 and 2015.2016. The higher level of cash required for receivables in 2017 was due primarily to higher year-over-year first-quarter sales. Cash of $33$20 and $64$33 was used to fund higher inventory levels in 20162017 and 2015.2016. Partially offsetting cash used for higher receivables and inventory in both 20162017 and 20152016 was cash provided by increases in accounts payable and other net liabilities of $34$76 and $96.$37. The cash provided by accounts payable in 2017 was reduced by a payment of $25 in connection with the USM – Warren acquisition to settle trade payable obligations at the date of closing.

Investing activities — Expenditures for property, plant and equipment were $96 and $71 in 2017 and $622016. During 2017, we paid $106, net of cash acquired, to acquire 80% ownership interests in the 2016BFP and 2015.BPT and $78 to acquire USM – Warren. During 2016, we paid $18 to acquire the aftermarket distribution business of Magnum. During 20162017 and 2015,2016, purchases of marketable securities were funded by proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities.

Financing activities — During 2017, we made scheduled repayments of $5 at international locations and paid down $12 of BFP and BPT acquired indebtedness. During 2016, we made scheduled repayments of $24 and took out $32 of additional long-term debt at international locations. During 2015, we redeemed $55 of our February 2019 Notes at a $2 premium and took out additional long-term debt at international locations. We used $9 for dividend payments to common stockholders in both 2017 and 2016. We used $28 to repurchase 2,264,692 common shares and $63 to repurchase 2,913,720 common shares during the first quarters of 2016 and 2015.in 2016.

(Brevini) in February 2017 included the assumption of approximately $324 of liabilities, increasing our contractual obligations at March 31, 2017 versus those reported in Item 7 of our 2016 Form 10-K. The terms of the related agreement provide Dana the right to call the noncontrolling interests in BFP and BPT held by Brevini, and Brevini the right to put its noncontrolling interests in BFP and BPT to Dana, assuming Dana does not exercise its call rights, at dates and prices defined in the agreement. The redemption value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests in BFP and BPT was $44 at March 31, 2017. See Notes 2 and 7 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of Part I for additional information.

The issuance of $400 of 2025 Notes in early April 2017 and the subsequent use of the related proceeds to repay indebtedness will extend the maturities on nearly $400 of indebtedness at significantly lower interest rates. See Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of Part I for additional information.



Contingencies

For a summary of litigation and other contingencies, see Note 1314 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of Part I. We believe that any liabilities beyond the amounts already accrued that may result from these contingencies will not have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to use estimates and make judgments and assumptions about future events that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosures. There have been no material changes in the application of our significant accounting policies or critical accounting estimates. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of Part I, as well as in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of our 20152016 Form 10-K. Our critical accounting estimates are described in Item 7 of our 20152016 Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

ThereDuring the first quarter of 2017, we executed certain refinancing activities and entered into derivative instruments to manage our debt portfolio. In conjunction with the issuance of $15 of USD-denominated external short-term notes payable in Brazil and €281 of intercompany notes payable by two of our Luxembourg subsidiaries, we executed fixed-to-fixed cross swaps with the same critical terms as the underlying financial instruments. We also designated an existing MXN 1,465 intercompany note payable by USD-functional Dana European Holdings Luxembourg S.à r.l. as a net investment hedge of the equivalent portion of the investment in the operations of Dana de Mexico Corporacion.

During April 2017, we issued $400 of April 2025 Notes through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Dana Financing Luxembourg S.à r.l. In conjunction with the issuance, we executed three fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps with the same critical terms as the April 2025 Notes. We used the $394 of proceeds from the April 2025 Notes to repay a portion of the indebtedness of Brevini Fluid Power S.p.A. and Brevini Power Transmission S.p.A., to repay indebtedness of a subsidiary in Brazil and to redeem $100 of our September 2021 Notes. See Notes 12 and 13 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of Part I for additional information.

Other than the refinancing activities described above, there have been no material changes to market risk exposures related to changes in currency exchange rates, interest rates or commodity costs from those discussed in Item 7A of our 20152016 Form 10-K.
