Item 5. OTHER EVENTS.
As previously described in Hexcel's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first
quarter of 2002, effective January 1, 2002, management responsibility for the
Company's carbon fiber product line was transferred to the Composites Materials
business segment. As a result of this change in management responsibilities,
Hexcel changed its business segment reporting to reflect the reclassification of
its carbon fiber product line from its Reinforcement Products segment to its
Composite Materials segment. In addition, Hexcel changed the names of its
business segments. Hexcel's three business segments are now known as
Reinforcements, Composites and Structures, rather than Reinforcement Products,
Composite Materials and Engineered Products.
Exhibit 99.1 contains quarterly financial data for the year 2001 and annual
financial data for the years 2001 and 2000, in each case restated as if Hexcel's
business segment reporting had been reorganized at the beginning of the relevant
period.
Item 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND EXHIBITS.
