(1) Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

     Unless otherwise indicated, references to “Company” mean Hayes Lemmerz International, Inc. and its subsidiaries and references to fiscal year mean the Company’s year ended January 31 of the following year (e.g., “fiscal 2001” refers to the period beginning February 1, 2001 and ending January 31, 2002, “fiscal 2000” refers to the period beginning February 1, 2000 and ending January 31, 2001 and “fiscal 1999” refers to the period beginning February 1, 1999 and ending January 31, 2000).

     The Company designs, engineers and manufactures suspension module components, principally for original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) of passenger cars, light trucks and commercial highway vehicles worldwide. The Company’s products include one-piece cast aluminum wheels, fabricated aluminum wheels, fabricated steel wheels, full face cast aluminum wheels, clad covered wheels, wheel-end attachments, aluminum structural components, intake and exhaust manifolds, and brake drums, hubs and rotors.

     The Company is filing this amended Form 10-Q/ A Quarterly Report as a result of the matters discussed below in Note 2.

Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and payment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business and do not reflect adjustments that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s recent history of significant losses, deficit in stockholders’ equity and issues related to non-compliancecompliance with debt covenants raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. As is more fully discussed in Note 11,12, the Company filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in December 2001. Continuing as a going concern is dependent upon, among other things, the Company’s formulation of a plan of reorganization that is confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, the success of future business operations, and the generation of sufficient cash from operations and financing sources to meet the Company’s obligations.

     The Company’s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period results have been included. Operating results for the threesix months ended April 30,July 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending January 31, 2002.

     Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

(2) Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements

     On September 5 and December 13, 2001,February 19, 2002, the Company announced that it would restate itsissued restated consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2001 and 2000, and related quarterly periods (the “10-K/A”), and for the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2001 because(the “10-Q/A”). The restatement was the result of failure by the Company failed in certain instances to properly apply certain accounting principlesstandards generally accepted in the United States of America, and because certain accounting errors and irregularities in the Company’s financial statements were identified. The Company also advised that the accompanying independent auditors’ reports regarding the fiscal 2000 and 1999 consolidated financial statements should not be relied upon.

(2) Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

     The Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors was given the responsibility to investigate the facts and circumstances relating to the accounting and internal control issues which gave rise to the restatement and the Company’s accounting practices, policies and procedures (the “Audit Committee Investigation”). To assist with the Audit Committee Investigation, the Audit Committee engaged the law firm of Skadden Arps Slate Meagher & Flom LLP (“Skadden Arps”) and Skadden Arps engaged the accounting firm of Ernst & Young LLP.

     In addition to the Audit Committee Investigation, the Company conducted a review of its accounting records for the first quarter of fiscal 2001, fiscal 2000, and fiscal 1999 and engaged KPMG LLP to audit the Company’s restated consolidated financial statements for fiscal 2000 and 1999. On February 19, 2002, the Company filed an amended Form 10-K (the “10-K/A”) which included the restated financial statements for fiscal 2000 and fiscal 1999. The restatement adjustments reflected for the consolidated balance sheets at April 30, 2001 and 2000 include the combined effect of the restatement adjustments for fiscal 2000 and fiscal 1999, respectively, which are restated in the 10-K/A.

     The Company has been in contact with the staff ofadvised that the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) concerning the status of the Audit Committee Investigation. The Company has been advised that the SEC is conducting an investigation into the facts and circumstances giving rise to the restatement, and the Company has been and intends to continue cooperating with the SEC. The Company cannot predict the outcome of such an investigation.

Following are the primary categories of restatement adjustments to the Company’s previously reported financial results (millions of dollars):

     DescriptionsThe primary categories of restatement adjustments are discussed more fully in the major componentsCompany’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A and the notes to the consolidated financial statements included therein. Following are the primary categories of restatement adjustments to the Company’s previously reported financial results for the three month and six month periods ended July 31, 2000 ($ in millions):

     The restatement adjustments to the consolidated balance sheet as of July 31, 2000 reflected in the table below include the cumulative effect of the restatement adjustments for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 and 2000 are as follows:

Adjustments Affecting Net Income (Loss)

Deferred Operating Expenditures

     The Company determined that certain costs and expenses, primarily related to freight, payroll, non-reimbursable tooling, and other operating costs and expenses, were improperly capitalized or deferred.

Unrecorded Trade Payables and Claims

     The Company determined that it did not record liabilities primarily for maintenance parts purchases, temporary labor, costs for exceeding certain permitted environmental emissions and other operating supplies.

Acquisition Accounting

     The accounting for certain acquisitions did not appropriately reflect the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as follows:

• In connection with certain acquisitions, including the acquisition of CMI International, Inc., the Company recorded an accrued liability for unfavorable customer contracts which could not be substantiated. Additionally, the Company did not record the fair value of acquired supplies inventory.
• In connection with the acquisition of Lemmerz Holding GmbH, the Company recorded an accrued liability for restructuring costs. The restructuring plan did not meet the conditions regarding the period within which the plan was required to be finalized.

     Amounts previously charged against these accrued liabilities are reflected as operating expenses in the restated consolidated statements of operations.

Customer Credits

     The Company determined that it did not record certain customer pricing adjustments.

Asset Impairment Losses

     As a consequence of the notifications received in April 2001 by the Company from certain customers of its Petersburg, Michigan manufacturing facility regarding significantly lower future product orders and the failure to obtain adequate customer support required to relocate production, management should have revised its estimate of future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the facility. The Company concluded that this estimated amount was less than the carrying value of the long-lived assets related to the Petersburg facility and, accordingly, recognized an impairment charge of $28.5 million in the three months ended April 30, 2001.

     An additional impairment loss was recognized related to the abandonment of plans to continue to invest in the start-up of certain single-purpose equipment at another facility.

(2) Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

Income Tax Adjustments

     The restatement adjustments discussed above affecting earnings (loss) from operations and acquisition accounting also result in adjustments to income taxes in the appropriate period. Additionally, in view of the substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, the Company cannot conclude that it is more likely than not that the benefits of certain deferred tax assets will be realized. Accordingly, the valuation allowance that was established in fiscal 2000 was increased in the quarter ended April 30, 2001. The tax-effect of the change in the fair value of the net investment hedges was offset by a reversal of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, such that there was no net tax effect in the quarter ended April 30, 2001.

Adjustments Directly Affecting Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit)

     The restatement adjustment affecting stockholders’ equity recognizes the deferred income tax liability in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 related to cross-currency interest rate swap agreements to hedge a portion of the Company’s net investment in foreign subsidiaries. The deferred income tax charge was recorded in the accumulated other comprehensive income section in consolidated stockholders’ equity (deficit) as part of the restatement. There was no net tax effect related to net investment hedges in the quarter ended April 30, 2001.

Reclassifications1999 through July 31, 2000.

     For purposes of these consolidated financial statements, certain reclassifications have been made to conform presentation as follows:

 • All amounts outstanding with respect to the Credit Agreement and senior subordinated notes outstanding at April 30, 2001, as more fully discussed in Note (3) are classified as a current liability.
• The common stock subject to put agreement was reclassified from additional paid in capital at April 30,July 31, 2000 as previously reported.
 
 • Certain non-current deferred income tax assets and liabilities as previously reported at April 30, 2001 andJuly 31, 2000 were reclassified either as part of the previously reported amounts or as restatement adjustments.

     These reclassifications, which did not affect previously reported net income (loss), have been made to the consolidated financial statements and are included in the accompanying tables.

(3) Bank Borrowings and Long-Term Debt

Refinancing

     On June 21, 2001, the Company received formal approval for Consent and Amendment No. 5 to the Credit Agreement. Such amendment provided for and/or permits, among other things, the issuance and sale of certain senior unsecured notes (the “Senior Notes”) by the Company, a receivables securitization transaction, and changes to the various financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement in the event that the issuance and sale of the Senior Notes does occur. The amendment also provided the Company with the option of establishing a new “B” tranche of term loans (the “B Term Loan”) under the Credit Agreement. The amendment also provides for the net cash proceeds of the issuance and sale of the Senior Notes to be applied as follows: (i) the first $140,000,000, to prepay outstanding term loans (in direct order of stated maturity) under the Credit Agreement; (ii) the next $60,000,000, at the Company’s option, to prepay indebtedness of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries; (iii) the next $50,000,000, to prepay outstanding term loans (in direct order of stated maturity) under the Credit Agreement; (iv) the next $50,000,000, at the Company’s option, to repurchase or redeem a portion of the Company’s existing senior subordinated notes; and (v) the remainder, if any, to prepay outstanding term loans (in direct order of stated maturity) and then to reduce the revolving credit commitments under the Credit Agreement.

     On June 22, 2001, the Company received $291.1 million in net proceeds from the issuance of 11 7/8% senior unsecured notes due 2006 in the original principal amount of $300 million (the “11 7/8% Notes”). In addition, on July 2, 2001, the Company received $144.3 million in net proceeds from the issuance of the B Term Loan. These aggregate net proceeds totaled $435.4 million and were used as follows ($ in millions):

      
Permanent reduction of Credit Agreement indebtedness with a principal balance of $334.3, plus $2.2 in accrued interest $336.5 
Payment on foreign indebtedness with a principal balance of $47.0  47.0 
Repurchase of certain Senior Subordinated Notes with a face value of $47.2, plus $1.0 in accrued interest  37.6 
Payment of fees and expenses on the above  0.8 
Remaining cash proceeds held by Company  13.5 
   
 
 Total $435.4 
   
 

     In connection with the repurchase of the senior subordinated notes at a discount, the Company recorded an extraordinary gain of $10.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2001. This gain was offset by $0.9 million of unamortized deferred financing costs written off as a result of the repurchase. Further, in connection with the B Term refinancing and permanent reduction of the Credit Agreement, the Company recorded an extraordinary loss of $5.5 million for the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the Credit Agreement. These extraordinary items are reflected net of tax of $1.5 million on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. As a result, the deferred tax asset valuation allowance was reduced by a corresponding amount with the benefit included in Income tax provision on the consolidated statement of operations included herein.

The 11 7/8% Notes mature on June 15, 2006 and require interest payments semi-annually on each June 15 and December 15 commencing December 15, 2001. The 11 7/8% Notes may not be redeemed prior to June 15, 2005; provided, however, that the Company may, at any time and from time to time prior to June 15, 2004, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 11 7/8% Notes at a price equal to 111.875% of the aggregate principal amount so redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption, with the

     The 11 7/8% Notes rank equally to all other existing and future senior debt but are effectively subordinated to the borrowings under the Credit Agreement to the extent of collateral securing the Credit Agreement. The 11 7/8% Notes are effectively subordinated to all liabilities (including trade and intercompany obligations) of the Company’s subsidiaries which are not guarantors of the Credit Agreement and the B Term Loan.

other distributions, additional stock of subsidiaries, certain investments, liens, transactions with affiliates, mergers, consolidations, and the transfer and sales of assets. The indenture also provides that a holder of the 11 7/8% Notes may, under certain circumstances, have the right to require that the Company repurchase such holder’s 11 7/8% Notes upon a change of control of the Company. The 11 7/8% Notes are unconditionally guaranteed as to the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, jointly and severally by the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries.

     Pursuant to an Exchange Offer Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), the Company agreed to use its best efforts to file and have declared effective an Exchange Offer Registration Statement with respect to an offer to exchange the 11 7/8% Notes for other notes of the Company with terms substantially identical to the 11 7/8% Notes. The Company also agreed to consummate such exchange offer on or prior to December 19, 2001. As a result of the Chapter 11 Filings by the DebtorsCompany on December 5, 2001 as discussed in Note 12, such registration has not occurred.

     The B Term Loans amortize at the rate of 1% of principal per year and mature in full on December 31, 2005 (at which time all remaining unpaid principal will be due and payable). The B Term Loans rank equally with all other loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement and share equally in the guarantees and collateral granted by the Company and its subsidiaries to secure the amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement. The B Term Loans are also subject to the same covenants and events of default which govern all other loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

     The interest rates of the B Term Loans are, at the option of the Company, based upon either an adjusted eurocurrency rate (the “eurocurrency rate”) or the rate which is equal to the highest of CIBC’s prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 1/2 of 1% and the base certificate of deposit rate plus 1% (the “ABR rate”), in each case plus an applicable margin. For B Term Loans which bear interest at the eurocurrency rate, the applicable margin is 5.0%, and for B Term Loans which bear interest at the ABR rate, the applicable margin is 4.0%. The Company may elect interest periods of one, two, three or six months for eurocurrency loans. Interest is computed on the basis of actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days (or 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for ABR loans based on the prime rate). Interest is payable at the end of each interest period and, in any event, at least every three months.

     The Credit Agreement, as amended, contains certain financial covenants regarding interest coverage ratios, fixed charge coverage ratios, leverage ratios and capital spending limitations. If compliance with these covenants were calculated using the Company’s restated financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2001, certain of these covenants as of April 30, 2001 would have been violated.

For purposes of these consolidated financial statements, all amounts outstanding with respect to the Credit Agreement, and the senior subordinated notes, and the 11 7/8% Notes outstanding at April 30,July 31, 2001 are classified as a current liability as of April 30,July 31, 2001. As more fully discussed above, certain portions of the amounts outstanding at April 30, 2001 under the Credit Agreement and the previous senior subordinated notes were refinanced in the second quarter of fiscal 2001 with the proceeds of the 11 7/8% Notes and the B Term Loan. The amounts outstanding with respect to the 11 7/8% Notes and the B Term Loan will be classified as a current liability upon their issuance.

     In July 1998, the Company has access toentered into a revolving credit facility (the “DIP Facility”) not to exceed $200 million with a sub-limit of $15 million for letters of credit. The Company received Bankruptcy Court approval for the DIP Agreement on December 21, 2001 (on an interim basis) and on January 28, 2002 (on a final basis). The DIP Facility is scheduled to terminate on the earlier of (a) the date of the substantial consummation of a Plan of Reorganization and (b) June 5, 2003 (eighteen months after the date of the Chapter 11 filings). As of February 14, 2002, the Company had $4.0 million in cash borrowings and had obtained $2.7 million in letters of creditthree-year trade securitization agreement pursuant to the DIP Facility.

     Proceeds of loans made under the DIP Facility will be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes ofwhich the Company and certain of its subsidiaries generally as set forth in the Company’s budgetsold, and otherwise as permitted under the DIP Agreement and approvedcontinued to sell on an ongoing basis, a portion of their accounts receivables to a special purpose entity (“Funding Co.”), which is wholly owned by the Bankruptcy Court. The DIP Agreement permits the Company to make loans to, and obtain letters of credit under the DIP Facility to support the operations or obligations of, its foreign subsidiaries in Germany and Mexico, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $20 million at any one time outstanding, to fund capital expenditures, required joint venture obligations, rebate exposure of such foreign subsidiaries or costs incurred in connection with plant closures, restructuring or the sale or termination of businesses of foreign subsidiaries in Germany. Such loans may be funded either from the Company’s operations or from borrowings under the DIP Facility.

     Beginning January 31, 2002, the DIP Facility requires compliance with monthly minimum consolidated and domestic EBITDA tests and limits on capital expenditures. In addition to the foregoing financial covenants, the DIP Agreement imposes certain other restrictions onCompany. Accordingly, the Company and itssuch subsidiaries, includingirrevocably and without recourse, transferred and continued to transfer substantially all of their U.S. dollar denominated trade accounts receivable to Funding Co. Funding Co. then sold and continued to sell such trade accounts receivable to an independent issuer of receivable-backed commercial paper. The Company had collection and administrative responsibilities with respect to their abilityall the receivables that were sold. There were no receivables sold as of July 31, 2001.

     This trade securitization agreement expired on May 1, 2001. From that time up to incur liens, enter into mergers, incur indebtedness, give guarantees, make investments, pay dividends or make other distributions and disposeJuly 31, 2001, the Company financed the amount of assets.

The obligationsimpact of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors under the DIP Facility have super-priority administrative claim status as provided under the Bankruptcy Code. Under the Bankruptcy Code, a super-priority claim is senior to secured and unsecured pre-petition claims and all administrative expenses incurred in the Chapter 11 case. In addition, with certain exceptions (including a carve-out for unpaid professional fees and disbursements), the DIP Facility obligations are secured by (1) a first-priority liendiscontinued securitization program had an adverse impact on all unencumbered pre- and post-petition propertyliquidity of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors, (2) a first-priority priming lien on all property of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors that is encumbered by the existing liens securing the Company’s pre-petition secured lenders and (3) a junior lien on all other property of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors that is encumbered by pre-petition liens.

     On January 15, 2002, the Company and the initial lenders under the DIP Agreement entered into a First Amendment to the DIP Agreement. This First Amendment finalized the terms of the borrowing base formula of eligible assets which is used to calculate the amounts which the Company is able to borrow under the DIP Facility. The amount available under the facility as of February 14, 2002, after taking into account the aforementioned borrowings and letters of credit, was $90.1 million.

     Borrowings under the DIP Facility may be either ABR loans or Eurodollar loans. ABR loans are priced at 2.00% per annum plus the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the base CD rate plus 1.0% per annum, and (iii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5% per annum. Eurodollar loans under the DIP Facility are priced at LIBOR plus 3.50% per annum. In addition, the Company pays a commitment fee of 0.75% per annum on

     The principal sources of liquidity for the Company’s future operating, capital expenditure, facility closure and other restructuring requirements are expected to be (i) cash flows from operations, (ii) proceeds from the sale of non-core assets and business, (iii) borrowings under various foreign bank and government loans and (iv) and borrowings under the DIP Facility.

(4) Derivative Financial Instruments

     In June 1998, June 1999 and June 2000,On February 1, 2001, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, SFAS 137, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133” and SFAS 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”. These Statements establish accounting and reporting133.” The adoption of these standards requiring that every derivative instrument (including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. These Statements require that changes in the derivative’s fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met.

     Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivative’s gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged item in the income statement or as part of accumulated other comprehensive income, and requires that a company must formally document, designate, and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting. This accounting is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company adopted this standard on February 1, 2001 and adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

     The Company has significant investments in foreign subsidiaries. The majority of these investments are in Europe wherein the Euro is the functional currency. As a result, the Company is exposed to fluctuations in exchange rates between the Euro and the U.S. Dollar. To reduce this exposure, the Company has entered into cross-currency interest rate swap agreements and forward currency hedges.agreements. At both April 30,July 31, 2001 and January 31, 2001, the Company held $100 million and $281 million, respectively, notional amount of cross-currency interest rate swaps and forward currency hedges, which are recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in goodwill and other assets at fair valuevalue. At July 31, 2001 and January 31, 2001, the Company had recorded an unrealized gain of approximately $15.6$1.1 million and an unrealized loss of approximately $0.4 million, respectively. The fair value of the Company’s cross-currency interest rate swaps and forward currency hedges is the estimated amount the Company would receive or pay to terminate the agreement based on third party market quotes. The Company has designated these swap agreements as hedges of the foreign currency exposure of its net investment in foreign operations. In addition, the Company has designated a term loan, totaling 146.559.7 million Deutschemarks, as a hedge of foreign currency exposure of its net investment in its German operations.operation.

     The Company records the gain or loss on the derivative financial instruments designated as hedges of the foreign currency exposure of its net investment in foreign operations as currency translation adjustments in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss to the extent the hedges are effective. The gain or loss on the hedging instruments offset the change in currency translation adjustments resulting from translating the foreign operations’ financial statements from their respective functional currency to the Dollar. In the second quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company recorded a gain of $2.1 million on the instruments designated as hedges in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. The tax effect of this gain was offset by a reversal of the deferred

As these derivative financial instruments were accounted for as qualifying hedges prior to adoption of SFAS No. 133, no transition adjustment was recorded at the date of adoption.

     During the first quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company recognized asset impairment losses of $28.5 million related to the Company’s Petersburg, Michigan facility and $2.5 million related to the abandonment of plans to continue to invest in the start-up of certain single-purpose equipment at another facility. In June 2001, the Company committed to a plan to close the Petersburg facility, and accordingly recorded a related charge of $0.6 million. During the second quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $6.4 million related principally to a change in management’s plan for future use of idled machinery and equipment in the Automotive Wheel segment, and to investments in machinery, equipment, and tooling at its Somerset, Kentucky facility. The Company also recorded a $3.8 million loss on its investment in a Mexican joint venture, which had incurred and expects to continue to incur significant operating losses.

(8) Earnings per sharePer Share

     Basic earnings (loss) per share are calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted weighted average shares assume the exercise of stock options and warrants.

(8)(9) Comprehensive Income

     SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is defined as all changes in a Company’s net assets except changes resulting from transactions with shareholders. It differs from net income in that certain items currently recorded to equity would be a part of comprehensive income.

(9)(10) Contingencies

     Various lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been or may be instituted or asserted against the Company, including those pertaining to environmental, product liability, patent infringement, and employee benefit matters. While the amounts claimed may be substantial, the ultimate liability cannot now be determined because of the considerable uncertainties that exist. Therefore, it is possible that results of operations or liquidity in a particular period could be materially affected by certain contingencies. However, based on facts currently available, management believes that the disposition of matters that are pending or asserted will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the Company.

     Certain operating leases covering leased assets with an original cost of approximately $68.0 million, contain provisions which, if certain events occur or conditions are met, including termination of the lease, might require the Company to purchase or re-sell the leased assets within a specified period of time, generally one year, based on amounts specified in the lease agreements. On July 18, 2001, the Company received notification of termination from a lessor with respect to leased assets having approximately $25.0 million of

     The Company is organized based primarily on markets served and products produced. Under this organization structure, the Company’s operating segments have been aggregated into three reportable segments: Automotive Wheels, Cast Components and Other. The Other category includes Commercial Highway products, the corporate office and elimination of intercompany activities, none of which meet the requirements of being classified as an operating segment.

Chapter 11 Filings

     On December 5, 2001, the Company, 30 of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries and one wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for reorganization (the “Chapter 11 Filings” or the “Filings”) under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Chapter 11 Filings are being jointly administered, for procedural purposes only, before the Bankruptcy Court under Case No. 01-11490-MFW.

     During the pendancy of these Filings, the Debtors remain in possession of their properties and assets and management of the Company continues to operate the businesses of the Debtors as debtors-in-possession. As a debtor-in-possession, the Company is authorized to operate the business of the Debtors, but may not engage in transactions outside of the ordinary course of business without the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, after notice and the opportunity for a hearing, of the Bankruptcy Court.hearing.

     Shortly after the commencement of the Chapter 11 Filings, on December 21, 2001, the Bankruptcy Court granted interim approval for the Debtors to obtain $45 million in debtor-in-possession financing.financing (the “DIP facility”). Subsequently, on January 28, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court granted final approval toof a $200 million debtor-in-possession financingDIP facility for the Debtors. The amounts that the Company is able to borrow under the DIP facility are determined by a borrowing base formula based on certain eligible assets of the Company. As of March 21, 2002, the Company had $14.0 million in cash borrowings and had issued $4.7 million in letters of credit pursuant to this financing. The amount available under the DIP facility as of March 21, 2002, after taking into account the aforementioned borrowings and letters of credit, was $87.9 million.

As of the date of this filing, the Debtors had not yet completed their review of all contracts and leases for assumption or rejection, but ultimately will assume or reject all such contracts and leases. Generally, the Debtors have up to 120 days, or a longer period of time subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court, after the date of filing to assume or reject executory contracts and certain leases. The Debtors cannot presently determine or reasonably predict the ultimate liability that may result from rejecting such contracts or leases or from the filing of rejection damage claims, but such rejections could result in additional liabilities subject to compromise.

     All liabilities subject to compromise are subject to future adjustment depending on Bankruptcy Court action, further developments with respect to disputed claims, or other events. Under a confirmed plan of reorganization, most all unsecured pre-petition claims may be paid at amounts substantially less than their allowed amounts. In light of the number of creditors of the Debtors, the claims resolution process may take considerable time to complete. Accordingly, the ultimate number and amount of allowed claims is not presently known and, because the settlement terms of such allowed claims is subject to a confirmed plan of reorganization, the ultimate resolution with respect to allowed claims is not presently ascertainable.

     The consummation of a plan or plans of reorganization is the principal objective of the Chapter 11 Filings. A plan of reorganization sets forth the means for satisfying claims against and interests in the Company and its Debtor subsidiaries, including the liabilities subject to compromise. Generally, pre-petition liabilities are subject to settlement under such a plan or plans of reorganization, which must be voted upon by certain creditors and approved by the Bankruptcy Court. As provided by the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors initially have the exclusive right for 120 days (April 4, 2002), or a longer period of time subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court, to submit a plan or plans of reorganization. The Debtors have retained Lazard Freres & Co. LLC, as financial advisors and investment bankers for the purpose of providing financial advisory and investment banking services during the Chapter 11 reorganization process. The Company anticipates that any plan or plans of reorganization it may propose, if ultimately approved by the Bankruptcy Court, would result in substantial dilution of the interest of existing equity holders, so that they would hold little, if any, meaningful stake in the reorganized enterprise.

     Confirmation of a plan of reorganization is subject to certain findings being made by the Bankruptcy Court, all of which are required by the Bankruptcy Code. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the

Bankruptcy Code, confirmation of a plan of reorganization requires the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and the affirmative vote of each impaired class of creditors and equity security holders. The Bankruptcy Court may confirm a plan notwithstanding the non-acceptance of the plan by an impaired class of creditors or equity security holders if certain requirements of the Bankruptcy Code are met. There can be no assurance that a reorganization plan or plans will be proposed by the Debtors or confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, or that any such plan or plans will be consummated.

     Currently, it is not possible to predict the length of time the Company will operate under the protection of Chapter 11 and the supervision of the Bankruptcy Court, when the Company will file a plan or plans of reorganization with the Bankruptcy Court, the outcome of the Chapter 11 proceedings in general, or the effect of the proceedings on the business of the Company or on the interest of the various creditors and stakeholders. Under the priority scheme established by the Bankruptcy Code, certain post-petition liabilities need to be satisfied before shareholders can receive any distribution. The ultimate recovery, if any, to shareholders will not be determined until confirmation of a plan or plans of reorganization. There can be no assurance as to what value, if any, will be ascribed to the common stock of the Company in the bankruptcy proceedings, and the value of the equity represented by that stock could be substantially diluted or canceled.

     The Company’s financial statements commencing with the period that includes December 5, 2001, the date of filing of the Chapter 11 proceedings, will be presented in conformity with the AICPA’s Statement of Position 90-7, “Financial Reporting By Entities In Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code,”

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

     The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements,Consolidated Financial Statements, related notes thereto and the other information included elsewhere herein.herein and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/ A filed with the SEC on February 19, 2002. The financial information included in the following discussion and analysis reflects the results of the restatements of the consolidated financial statements for the three month and six month periods ended July 31, 2000 discussed more fully below.

Organization, Chapter 11 Filings and Other Recent Developments

     The Company designs, engineers and manufactures suspension module components, principally for original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) of passenger cars, light trucks and commercial highway vehicles worldwide. The Company’s products include one-piece cast aluminum wheels, fabricated aluminum wheels, fabricated steel wheels, full face cast aluminum wheels, clad covered wheels, wheel-end attachments, aluminum structural components, intake and exhaust manifolds, and brake drums, hubs and rotors.

Chapter 11 Filings

     On December 5, 2001, the Company, 30 of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries and one wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for reorganization (the “Chapter 11 Filings” or the “Filings”) under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Chapter 11 Filings are being jointly administered, for procedural purposes only, before the Bankruptcy Court under Case No. 01-11490-MFW.

     During the pendancy of these Filings, the Debtors remain in possession of their properties and assets and management of the Company continues to operate the businesses of the Debtors as debtors-in-possession. As a debtor-in-possession, the Company is authorized to operate the business of the Debtors, but may not engage in transactions outside of the ordinary course of business without the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, after notice and the opportunity for a hearing, of the Bankruptcy Court.hearing.

     Shortly after the commencement of the Chapter 11 Filings, on December 21, 2001, the Bankruptcy Court granted interim approval for the Debtors to obtain $45 million in debtor-in-possession financing. Subsequently, on January 28, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court granted final approval toof a $200 million debtor-in-possession financing facility for the Debtors. The Bankruptcy Court has approved payment of certain of the Debtors’ pre-petition liabilities, such as employee wages, benefits, and certain customer, vendor and freight programs.program related payments. In addition, the Bankruptcy Court authorized the Debtors to continue and maintain the majority of their employee benefit programs. Pension and savings plan funds are in trusts and protected under federal regulations. All required contributions are current in the respective plans. The Debtors have received Bankruptcy Court approval for the retention of legal, financial and management consulting professionals, and are seekingfrom time to time may seek Bankruptcy Court approval for the retention of additional financial and management consulting professionals, to advise the Debtors in the bankruptcy proceedings and the restructuring of its businesses.

     Pursuant to the automatic stay provisions of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, actions to collect pre-petition indebtedness and virtually all litigation against the Debtors that was, or could have been, brought prior to the commencement of the Chapter 11 Filings are stayed, and other contractual obligations of the Debtors may not be enforced against them. In addition, under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, the Debtors may assume or reject executory contracts and unexpired leases. Parties affected by theseany such rejections may file proofs of claim with the Bankruptcy Court in accordance with the reorganization process. TheseProof of claims for damages resulting from the rejection of executory contracts or unexpired leases willgenerally must be subject to separatefiled with the Bankruptcy Court by the later of (a) the general claims bar dates, generallydate established by the Bankruptcy Court (which was not established as of the date of this filing), or (b) the date that is thirty days after entry of the order approving the rejection. As of the date of this filing, the Debtors had not yet completed their review of all contracts and leases for assumption or rejection, but ultimately will assume or reject all such contracts and leases. Generally, the Debtors have up to 120 days, or a longer period of time subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court, after the date of filing to assume or reject executory contracts and certain leases. The Debtors cannot presently determine or reasonably predict

26


the ultimate liability that may result from rejecting such contracts or leases or from the filing of rejection damage claims, but such rejections could result in additional liabilities subject to compromise.

29


     All liabilities subject to compromise are subject to future adjustment depending on Bankruptcy Court action, further developments with respect to disputed claims, or other events. Under a confirmed plan of reorganization, most all unsecured pre-petition claims may be paid at amounts substantially less than their allowed amounts. In light of the number of creditors of the Debtors, the claims resolution process may take considerable time to complete. Accordingly, the ultimate number and amount of allowed claims is not presently known and, because the settlement terms of such allowed claims is subject to a confirmed plan of reorganization, the ultimate resolution with respect to allowed claims is not presently ascertainable.

     The consummation of a plan or plans of reorganization is the principal objective of the Chapter 11 Filings. A plan of reorganization sets forth the means for satisfying claims against and interests in the Company and its Debtor subsidiaries, including the liabilities subject to compromise. Generally, pre-petition liabilities are subject to settlement under such a plan or plans of reorganization, which must be voted upon by certain creditors and approved by the Bankruptcy Court. As provided by the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors initially have the exclusive right for 120 days (April 4, 2002), or a longer period of time subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court, to submit a plan or plans of reorganization. The Debtors have retained Lazard Freres & Co. LLC, as financial advisors and investment bankers for the purpose of providing financial advisory and investment banking services during the Chapter 11 reorganization process. The Company anticipates that any plan or plans of reorganization it may propose, if ultimately approved by the Bankruptcy Court, would result in substantial dilution of the interest of existing equity holders, so that they would hold little, if any, meaningful stake in the reorganized enterprise.

     Confirmation of a plan of reorganization is subject to certain findings being made by the Bankruptcy Court, all of which are required by the Bankruptcy Code. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Bankruptcy Code, confirmation of a plan of reorganization requires the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and the affirmative vote of each impaired class of creditors and equity security holders. The Bankruptcy Court may confirm a plan notwithstanding the non-acceptance of the plan by an impaired class of creditors or equity security holders if certain requirements of the Bankruptcy Code are met. There can be no assurance that a reorganization plan or plans will be proposed by the Debtors or confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, or that any such plan or plans will be consummated.

     Currently, it is not possible to predict the length of time the Company will operate under the protection of Chapter 11 and the supervision of the Bankruptcy Court, when the Company will file a plan or plans of reorganization with the Bankruptcy Court, the outcome of the Chapter 11 proceedings in general, or the effect of the proceedings on the business of the Company or on the interest of the various creditors and stakeholders. Under the priority scheme established by the Bankruptcy Code, certain post-petition liabilities need to be satisfied before shareholders can receive any distribution. The ultimate recovery, if any, to shareholders will not be determined until confirmation of a plan or plans of reorganization. There can be no assurance as to what value, if any, will be ascribed to the common stock of the Company in the bankruptcy proceedings, and the value of the equity represented by that stock could be substantially diluted or canceled.

     The Company’s financial statements commencing with the period that includes December 5, 2001, the date of filing of the Chapter 11 proceedings, will be presented in conformity with the AICPA’s Statement of Position 90-7, “Financial Reporting By Entities In Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code,” (“SOP 90-7”). The statement requires a segregation of liabilities subject to compromise by the Bankruptcy Court as of the bankruptcy filing date and identification of all transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization of the Company.

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not reflect: (a) the requirements of SOP 90-7, (b) the realizable value of assets on a liquidation basis or their availability to satisfy liabilities; (c) aggregate pre-petition liability amounts that may be allowed for unrecorded claims or contingencies, or their status or priority; (d) the effect of any changes to the Debtors’ capital structure or in the Debtors’ business operations as the result of an approved plan of reorganization; or (e) adjustments to the carrying value of assets (including

Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements

     On September 5 and December 13, 2001,February 19, 2002, the Company announced that it would restate itsissued restated consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2001 and 2000, and related quarterly periods, and for the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2001 because2001. The restatement was the result of failure by the Company failed in certain instances to properly apply certain accounting principlesstandards generally accepted in the United States of America, and because certain

30


accounting errors and irregularities in the Company’s financial statements were identified. The Company also advised that the accompanying independent auditors’ reports regarding fiscal 2000 and 1999 consolidated financial statements should not be relied upon.

     The Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors was given the responsibility to investigate the facts and circumstances relating to the accounting and internal control issues which gave rise to the restatement and the Company’s accounting practices, policies and procedures (the “Audit Committee Investigation”). To assist with the Audit Committee Investigation, the Audit Committee engaged the law firm of Skadden Arps Slate Meagher & Flom LLP (“Skadden Arps”) and Skadden Arps engaged the accounting firm of Ernst & Young LLP.

     In addition to the Audit Committee Investigation, the Company conducted a review of its accounting records for fiscal 2000 and fiscal 1999 and engaged KPMG LLP to audit the Company’s restated consolidated financial statements for fiscal 2000 and 1999. The cumulative restatement of the Company’s fiscal 2000 and 1999 financial statements reduces the Company’s consolidated stockholders’ equity as of January 31, 2001 by approximately $177.2 million, from amounts previously reported. The amended Form 10-K (the “10-K/A”) was filed on February 19, 2002 and included the restated consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended April 30, 2001 were also restated.

     Following the announcements of the restatements, several lawsuits were filed by and purportedly on behalf of the shareholders of the Company naming as defendants, a combination of the Company, Mr. Cucuz and Mr. Shovers. These lawsuits are seeking class action status, but no class has yet been certified in these matters. As discussed above, due to the fact that the Company filed a petition under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code on December 5, 2001, this litigation against the Company is now subject to the automatic stay.

     The Company has been in contact with the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) concerning the status of the Audit Committee Investigation.     The Company has been advised that the SEC is conducting an investigation into the facts and circumstances giving rise to the restatement, and the Company has been and intends to continue cooperating with the SEC. The Company cannot predict the outcome of such an investigation.

In connection with this early retirement offer, the Company will record a restructuring charge of $3.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001 primarily related to continued medical benefits and supplemental retirement benefits which are expected to be paid over a period of up to 9 years commencing in fiscal 2002.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended April 30, 2001 Compared to Three Months Ended April 30, 2000

     Sales of the Company’s wheels, wheel-end attachments, aluminum structural components, powertrain and brake components produced in North America are directly affected by the overall level of passenger car, light truck and commercial highway vehicle production of North American OEMs, while sales of its wheels and automotive castings in Europe are directly affected by the overall vehicle production in Europe. The North American and European automotive industries are sensitive to the overall strength of their respective economies.

     The Company is organized based primarily on markets served and products produced. Under this organization structure, the Company’s operating segments have been aggregated into three reportable segments: Automotive Wheels, Components and Other. The Automotive Wheels segment includes results from the Company’s operations that primarily manufacture and distribute fabricated steel and cast aluminum wheels for original equipment manufacturers in the global passenger car and light vehicle markets.

This was primarily due to a $50.1$30.5 million reduction in sales from the Company’s North American operations arising from lower OEM production levels and lower market share in 2001 compared to 2000. This decrease was partially offset by an increase of $9.7$11.7 million in sales from the Company’s foreign aluminum wheel operations primarily due to increasing penetration rates of aluminum wheels in the European light vehicle market. The increase in sales from the Company’s foreign operations is net ofwas partially offset by an approximate $15.6 million decline in the impact of the approximately 7% decrease in value of European currencies relative to the U.S. dollar between the firstsecond quarter of 20002001 and 2001.2000.

This decreaseincrease is primarily due to higher sales from the Company’s system service business in Europe. This increase was partially offset by the significant decrease in heavy duty Class 8 truck and trailer production in North America between those time periods.

Gross Profit

     The Company’s gross profit margin for the firstsecond quarter of fiscal 2001 decreased to $57.6$33.6 million or 10.7%6.5% of net sales as compared to $94.3$72.7 million or 15.9%13.5% of net sales for the firstsecond quarter of fiscal 2000.

Gross profit from the Company’s North American operations decreased $28.8$34.8 million from the three months ended April 30,July 31, 2000 compared to the same period in 2001. This decrease is primarily due to recurring manufacturing difficulties at the Company’s Somerset, Kentucky facility and lower operating performance at various facilities in North America, which reduced gross profit by approximately $9.4$20.1 million and $11.7 million, respectively. Lower OEM production requirements in North America reduced gross profit by approximately $7.6$3.0 million. The decrease in gross profit from the Company’s North American operations was partially offset by a $4.0$1.0 million increase in gross profit primarily due to improved operating performance at various foreign operations.

29


     Gross profit from Components decreased $8.0$2.8 million from the firstsecond quarter of fiscal 2000 compared to the same period in fiscal 2001. This decrease is primarily due to lower operating performance, lower OEM production requirements and the inefficiencies arising from lower production.

     Other gross profit decreased $2.9$0.4 million from the firstsecond quarter of fiscal 2000 compared to the same period in fiscal 2001. This decrease is primarily due to lower sales and lower operating margins in the commercial highway market.

     As a consequence of the notifications received in April 2001 by the Company from certain customers of its Petersburg, Michigan manufacturing facility regarding significantly lower future product orders and the failure to obtain adequate customer support required to relocate production, management should have revised its estimate of future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the facility. The Company concluded that this estimated amount was less than the carrying value of the long-lived assets related to the Petersburg facility and, accordingly, recognized an impairment charge of $28.5 million in the three month ended April 30, 2001.

     In the restatement of the Company’s financial statements for the six months ended July 31, 2000, the Company recorded an asset impairmentsimpairment loss of $2.1 million related to assets previously sold or disposed of.

Pursuant topermanent reduction of the Credit Agreement, a syndicate of lenders agreed to lend to the Company up to $450recorded an extraordinary loss of $2.4 million for the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the Credit Agreement. The tax effect of these extraordinary items was offset by a reversal of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, such that there was no net tax effect in the form of a senior secured term loan facilityquarter ended July 31, 2001.

     The Credit Agreement, as amended, contains certain financial covenants regarding interest coverage ratios, fixed charge coverage ratios, leverage ratios and up to $650 million in the form of a senior secured revolving credit facility. The Company and all of its existing and future material domestic subsidiaries guarantee such term loan and revolving credit facilities. Such term loan and revolving facilities are secured by a first priority lien in substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company and its material domestic subsidiaries, now owned or acquired later, including a pledge of all of the shares of certain of the Company’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the shares of certain of the Company’s existing and future foreign subsidiaries. As of April 30,capital spending limitations. At July 31, 2001, there was $362.3$175.9 million outstanding under the term loan facilities thatof the Credit Agreement, which amount represents the total amount available under the facility.

At April 30,July 31, 2001, there was $398.6$514.1 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility and $240.2$124.6 million available. As a result of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Filings, all additional availability under the Credit Agreement has been terminated, although letters of credit amounting to approximately $11.0 million remain outstanding.

     On July 12, 2000, the Company entered into a first amendmentAll amounts outstanding with respect to the Credit Agreement. Pursuant to such first amendment,Agreement, the Company was permitted to repurchase shares of its common stockaforementioned senior subordinated notes, and the limitation on capital expenditures was deleted. The changes11 7/8% Notes are classified as a current liability in the first amendment have been superseded byconsolidated financial statements as of July 31, 2001 included herein.

subsequent amendments to the Credit Agreement. On December 8, 2000, the Company entered into a second amendment to the Credit Agreement. Pursuant to such second amendment, financial covenants regarding the leverage ratio, the interest coverage ratio and the fixed charge coverage ratio were modified and a financial covenant regarding the senior leverage ratio was added. In addition, an annual limit on capital expenditures was added, the stock repurchase authority was deleted, a cumulative limit on acquisitions was deleted and the interest rate was increased based on changes in the leverage ratio. On March 9, 2001, the Company entered into a third amendment to the Credit Agreement. Pursuant to such third amendment, financial covenants regarding the leverage ratio were amended and the interest rate was increased based on changes in the leverage ratio. On April 20, 2001, the Company entered into a fourth amendment to the Credit Agreement. Pursuant to such fourth amendment, financial covenants regarding the leverage ratio, the interest coverage ratio, the fixed charge coverage ratio and the senior leverage ratio were amended. In addition, certain limits on indebtedness under the revolving credit facility were deleted, the covenant on use of proceeds from asset sales was amended, the capital expenditure limits were amended and monthly reporting was added.

Trade Securitization Agreement

     In AprilJuly 1998, the Company entered into a three-year trade securitization agreement pursuant to which the Company and certain of its subsidiaries sold, and continued to sell on an ongoing basis, a portion of their accounts receivables to a special purpose entity (“Funding Co.”), which is wholly owned by the Company. Accordingly, the Company and such subsidiaries, irrevocably and without recourse, transferred and continued to transfer substantially all of their U.S. dollar denominated trade accounts receivable to Funding Co. Funding Co. then sold and continued to sell such trade accounts receivable to an independent issuer of receivable-backed commercial paper. The Company hashad collection and administrative responsibilities with respect to all the receivables that arewere sold. ReceivablesThere were no receivables sold at April 30, 2001 total $119.2 million.as of July 31, 2001.

     This trade securitization agreement expired on May 1, 2001. From that time up to the filing under Chapter 11,July 31, 2001, the Company financed the amount of receivables previously sold under the securitization agreement with its revolving credit facility. The impact of the discontinued securitization program had an adverse impact on liquidity of approximately $100$71.6 million.

Refinancing

     On June 21, 2001, the Company received formal approval for Consent and Amendment No. 5 to the Credit Agreement. Such amendment provided for and/or permits, among other things, the issuance and sale of certain senior unsecured notes (the “Senior Notes”) by the Company, a receivables securitization transaction, and changes to the various financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement in the event that the issuance and sale of the Senior Notes does occur. The amendment also provided the Company with the option of establishing a new “B” tranche of term loans (the “B Term Loan”) under the Credit Agreement. The amendment also provided for the net cash proceeds of the issuance and sale of the Senior Notes to be applied as follows: (i) the first $140,000,000, to prepay outstanding term loans (in direct order of stated maturity) under the Credit Agreement; (ii) the next $60,000,000, at the Company’s option, to prepay indebtedness of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries; (iii) the next $50,000,000, to prepay outstanding term loans (in direct order of stated maturity) under the Credit Agreement; (iv) the next $50,000,000, at the Company’s option, to repurchase or redeem a portion of the Company’s existing senior subordinated notes; and (v) the remainder, if any, to prepay outstanding term loans (in direct order of stated maturity) and then to reduce the revolving credit commitments under the Credit Agreement.

     On June 22, 2001, the Company received $291.1 million in net proceeds from the issuance of 11 7/8% senior unsecured notes due 2006 in the original principal amount of $300 million (the “11 7/8% Notes”). In

36


addition, on July 2, 2001, the Company received $144.3 million in net proceeds from the issuance of the B Term Loan. These aggregate net proceeds totaled $435.4 million and were used as follows ($ in millions):
      
Permanent reduction of Credit Agreement indebtedness with a principal balance of $334.3, plus $2.2 in accrued interest $336.5 
Payment on foreign indebtedness with a principal balance of $47.0.  47.0 
Repurchase of certain Senior Subordinated Notes with a face value of $47.2, plus $1.0 in accrued interest  37.6 
Payment of fees and expenses on the above  0.8 
Remaining cash proceeds held by Company  13.5 
  
 
 Total $435.4 
  
 

     The 11 7/8% Notes mature on June 15, 2006 and require interest payments semi-annually on each June 15 and December 15. The 11 7/8% Notes may not be redeemed prior to June 15, 2005; provided, however, that the Company may, at any time and from time to time prior to June 15, 2004, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 11 7/8% Notes at a price equal to 111.875% of the aggregate principal amount so redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption, with the Net Cash Proceeds (as defined) of one or more Equity Offerings (as defined), provided that at least $195.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 11 7/8% Notes remain outstanding. On or after June 15, 2005, the Company may, at its option, redeem the 11 7/8% Notes upon the terms and conditions set forth in the indenture.

     The 11 7/8% Notes rank equally to all other existing and future senior debt but are effectively subordinated to the borrowings under the Credit Agreement to the extent of collateral securing the Credit Agreement. The 11 7/8% Notes are effectively subordinated to all liabilities (including trade and intercompany obligations) of the Company’s subsidiaries which are not guarantors of the Credit Agreement and the 2001 Term Loan. The indenture governing the 11 7/8% Notes provide for certain restrictions regarding additional debt, dividends and other distributions, additional stock of subsidiaries, certain investments, liens, transactions with affiliates, mergers, consolidations, and the transfer and sales of assets. The indenture also provides that a holder of the 11 7/8% Notes may, under certain circumstances, have the right to require that the Company repurchase such holder’s 11 7/8% Notes upon a change of control of the Company. The 11 7/8% Notes are unconditionally guaranteed as to the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, jointly and severally by the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries.

     Pursuant to an Exchange Offer Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), the Company agreed to use its best efforts to file and have declared effective an Exchange Offer Registration Statement with respect to an offer to exchange the 11 7/8% Notes for other notes of the Company with terms substantially identical to the 11 7/8% Notes. The Company also agreed to consummate such exchange offer on or prior to December 19, 2001. As a result of the Chapter 11 Filings by the Debtors on December 5, 2001, no interest payment was made when due on December 15, 2001, and the registration of the Notes has not occurred.

     The B Term Loans amortize at the rate of 1% of principal per year and mature in full on December 31, 2005 (at which time all remaining unpaid principal will be due and payable). The B Term Loans rank equally with all other loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement and share equally in the guarantees and collateral granted by the Company and its subsidiaries to secure the amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement. The B Term Loans are also subject to the same covenants and events of default which govern all other loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

     The interest rates of the B Term Loans are, at the option of the Company, based upon either an adjusted eurocurrency rate (the “eurocurrency rate”) or the rate which is equal to the highest of CIBC’s prime rate, the federal funds rate plus  1/2 of 1% and the base certificate of deposit rate plus 1% (the “ABR rate”), in each case plus an applicable margin. For B Term Loans which bear interest at the eurocurrency rate, the applicable margin is 5.0%, and for B Term Loans which bear interest at the ABR rate, the applicable margin is 4.0%. The Company may elect interest periods of one, two, three or six months for eurocurrency loans. Interest is computed on the basis of actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days (or 365 or 366 days, as the case

37


may be, for ABR loans based on the prime rate). Interest is payable at the end of each interest period and, in any event, at least every three months.

     The Credit Agreement, as amended, contains certain financial covenants regarding interest coverage ratios, fixed charge coverage ratios, leverage ratios and capital spending limitations. If compliance with these covenants were calculated using the Company’s restated financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2001, certain of these covenants as of April 30, 2001 would have been violated.

     All amounts outstanding with respect to the Credit Agreement and the aforementioned notes are classified as a current liability in the consolidated financial statements as of April 30, 2001 included herein. As more fully discussed above, certain portions of the amounts outstanding at April 30, 2001 under the Credit Agreement and the previous senior unsecured subordinated debentures were refinanced in the second quarter of fiscal 2001 with the proceeds of the 11 7/8% Notes and the B Term Loan. The amounts outstanding with respect to the 11 7/8% Notes and the B Term Loan will be classified as a current liability upon their issuance.

Other Liquidity Matters

     During the second quarter of fiscal 2000, the Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to an aggregate of $30.0 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The Company repurchased approximately 1.9 million shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $25.7 million during fiscal 2000.

     Certain of the operating leases covering leased assets with an original cost of approximately $68.0 million, contain provisions which, if certain events occur or conditions are met, including termination of the lease, might require the Company to purchase or re-sell the leased assets within a specified period of time, generally one year, based on amounts specified in the lease agreements. On July 18, 2001, the Company received notification of termination from a lessor with respect to leased assets having approximately $25.0 million of original cost (which termination was not to be effective for one year). The Company has not agreed with the lessor that a termination has occurred at the time of the notice and has continued to use the leased assets.

     The Company received cash in the amount of $26.4$14.6 million and $9.7$15.9 million during fiscal yearsthe quarters ended July 31, 2001 and 2000, and 1999, respectively, in connection with the early termination of various cross-currency interest rate swap agreements. These proceeds reduced the receivable recorded by the Company at the time of the early termination resulting from accounting for mark-to-market adjustments during the term of the agreement. There were no terminations of cross-currency interest rate swap agreements during the quarters ended April 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Cash Flows

     Between January 31, 2001 and the date of the Chapter 11 Filings, the Company’s operating cash flows were adversely affected by (i) a further decrease in operating margins, (ii) the effect of discontinuing the receivables securitization program, less the effect on the Company of its participation in separate accelerated payment programs with some of its major customers starting in September 2001 and (iii) further contraction of terms required by trade creditors.

     Since the Chapter 11 Filings, the Company believes its operating cash flows will be impacted by, among other things, (i) the need to fund the significant professional fees and other costs directly related to the Chapter 11 Filings, (ii) the cash requirements for the closure and restructuring of certain facilities, and (iii) the rate and level of post-petition trade credit available to the Company. The amount of interest expense should be substantially less due to the effect of the stay on payment of pre-petition obligations.

     The Company’s operations used $55.4$23.3 million in cash in the first quartersix months of fiscal 2001 compared to a use of $118.7$67.1 million in the first quartersix months of fiscal 2000. ThisThe improvement principally reflects lower inventory levels and supplier payments consistent with lower sales volumes.

34


     Capital expenditures for the first quartersix months of fiscal 2001 were $29.9$68.4 million. These expenditures were primarily for additional machinery and equipment to improve productivity and reduce costs, to meet demand

38


for new vehicle platforms, and to meet expected requirements for the Company’s products. The Company anticipates capital expenditures for fiscal 2001 will be approximately $125.0 million relating primarily to new vehicle platforms, and maintenance and cost reduction programs.

Market Risks

     In the normal course of business the Company is exposed to market risks arising from changes in foreign exchange rates, interest rates and raw material prices. The Company selectively uses derivative financial instruments to manage these risks, but does not enter into any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

Foreign Exchange

     The Company has global operations and thus makes investments and enters into transactions in various foreign currencies. In order to minimize the risks associated with global diversification, the Company first seeks to internally net foreign exchange exposures, and uses derivative financial instruments to hedge any remaining net exposure. The Company uses forward foreign currency exchange contracts on a limited basis to reduce the earnings and cash flow impact of non-functional currency denominated transactions. The gains and losses from these hedging instruments generally offset the gains or losses from the hedged items and are recognized in the same period the hedged items are settled. In addition, the Company has entered into seventhree cross currency interest rate swaps to hedge a portion of its investments in Europe. The currency effects of these swaps, net of tax, are reflected in the cumulative translation adjustments component of other accumulated comprehensive income, where they offset the gain or loss associated with the investments in Europe. In addition, the Company has designated a term loan, totaling 146.559.7 million Deutschemarks, as a hedge of foreign currency exposure of its net investment in its German operations.

Commodities

     The Company relies upon the supply of certain raw materials inand other inputs for its production process and has entered into firm purchase commitments for aluminum and steel. The Company manages the exposures associated with these commitments primarily through the terms of its supply and procurement contracts. Additionally, the Company may useuses forward contracts to hedge against changes in certain specific commodity prices of the purchase commitments outstanding. The Company had no forward contracts during the quarters ended April 30,July 31, 2001 and 2000.

Other Matters

     The Company does not believe that sales of its products are materially affected by inflation, although there can be no assurance that such an effect will not occur in the future. In accordance with industry practice, the costs or benefits of fluctuations in aluminum prices are passed through to customers. In the United States, the Company adjusts the sales prices of its aluminum wheels every three to six months, if necessary, to reflect fully any increase or decrease in the price of aluminum. As a result, the Company’s net sales of aluminum wheels are adjusted, although gross profit per wheel is not materially affected. From time to time, the Company enters into futures contracts or purchase commitments solely to hedge against possible aluminum price changes that may occur between the dates of aluminum wheel price adjustments. Pricing and purchasing practices are similar in Europe, but opportunities to recover increased material costs from customers are more limited than in the United States.

     The value of the Company’s consolidated assets and liabilities located outside the United States (which are translated at period end exchange rates) and income and expenses (which are translated using average rates prevailing during the period) have been affected by the translation values, particularly the Euro (as defined under “Euro Conversion”) and the Brazilian Real. Such translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Foreign exchange rate fluctuations could have an increased impact on the Company’s reported results of operations. However, due to the self-sustaining nature of the Company’s foreign operations (which maintain their own credit facilities, enter into borrowings and swap

3935


agreements and incur costs in their respective local currencies), the Company believes it can effectively manage the effect of these currency fluctuations. In addition, in order to further hedge against such currency rate fluctuations, the Company has entered into certain foreign cross-currency interest ratecurrency swap arrangements.

     The Company’s net sales are continually affected by pressure from its major customers to reduce prices. The Company’s emphasis on reduction of production costs, increased productivity and improvement of production facilities has enabled the Company to respond to this pressure.

New Accounting Pronouncements

     In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” SFAS No. 144 supersedes FASB No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for Long-lived Assets to be Disposed Of.” The statement retains the previously existing accounting requirements related to the recognition and measurement of the impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used while expanding the measurement requirements of long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale to include discontinued operations. It also expands the previously existing reporting requirements for discontinued operations to include a component of an entity that either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale. The provisions of this Statement are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company has not yet completed its analysis of the impact of SFAS No. 144 on its consolidated financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

     In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.” SFAS No. 143 requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value of the liability can be made. Such associated asset retirement costs are to be capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. SFAS also contains additional disclosure requirements regarding descriptions of the asset retirement obligations and reconciliations of changes therein. The provisions of this Statement are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company has not yet completed its analysis of the impact of SFAS No. 143 on its consolidated financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

     In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill be reviewed for impairment annually, rather than amortized into earnings. The provisions of this Statement are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Amortization of goodwill will cease upon adoption of the Statement by the Company on February 1, 2002. At that valuation date, the Company will test goodwill for impairment, and any losses will be recognized as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. Other acquired identifiable intangible assets having estimable useful lives will be separately stated from goodwill, and will continue to be amortized over their estimated useful lives. As of February 1, 2002, the Company expects to have unamortized goodwill and other intangible assets of approximately $873.6 million, which will be subject to the transition provisions of SFAS No. 142. Amortization expense related to goodwill and other intangible assets was $27.4 million, $27.5 million and $16.6 million for fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Company believes it will incur a significant write-down in the value of its goodwill upon adoption of SFAS No. 142.

     In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations (initiated after June 30, 2001) be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Use of the pooling-of-interests method is no longer permitted. Adoption of this standard is not anticipated to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations as a result of future business combinations, as the Company has historically accounted for such transactions under the purchase method.

     In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities — a replacement of FASB Statement No. 125.” This statement revises the standards for accounting for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and collateral and requires certain financial statement disclosures. SFAS 140 is effective for transactions occurring

40


after March 31, 2001. The new disclosure requirements are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15,

36


2000. Adoption of this replacement standard isdid not anticipated to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations when adopted.operations.

Euro Conversion

On January 1, 2000, certain member countries of the European Union irrevocably fixed the conversion rates between their national currencies and a common currency, the “Euro,” which became the legal currency on that date. The participating countries’ former national currencies continue to exist as denominations of the Euro until January 1, 2002. The Company has established a steering committee that is monitoring the business implications of conversion to the Euro, including the need to adapt internal systems to accommodate Euro-denominated transactions. While the Company is still in various stages of assessments and implementation, the Company does not expect the conversion to the Euro to have a material affect on its financial condition or results of operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

     For the period ended April 30,July 31, 2001, the Company did not experience any material change in market risk exposures affecting the quantitative and qualitative disclosures as presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended January 31, 2001.
