DELPHI CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
General Delphi Corporation
(Delphi) is a world-leading supplier of vehicle
electronics, transportation components, integrated systems and
modules and other electronic technology. The consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto included in this report
should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto included in our 2004 Annual Report
on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Delphi and its subsidiaries.
All significant intercompany transactions and balances between
consolidated Delphi businesses have been eliminated. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only
normal recurring items, which are necessary for a fair
presentation, have been included. The results for interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of results which may be
expected from any other interim period or for the full year and
may not necessarily reflect the consolidated results of
operations, financial position and cash flows of Delphi in the
future.
Earnings (loss) Per Share Basic
earnings (loss) per share amounts were computed using weighted
average shares outstanding for each respective period. Diluted
earnings (loss) per share also reflect the weighted average
impact from the date of issuance of all potentially dilutive
securities during the periods presented, unless inclusion would
not have had a dilutive effect.
Actual weighted average shares outstanding used in calculating
basic and diluted earnings per share were:

The Board of Directors declared a dividend on Delphi common
stock of $0.03 per share on March 23, 2005, which was
paid on May 2, 2005 to holders of record on April 4,
2005. The dividend declared on December 8, 2004 was paid on
January 18, 2005.
Stock-Based Compensation Delphis
stock-based compensation programs include stock options,
restricted stock, and stock appreciation rights (SARs). As
allowed under SFAS No. 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation, Delphi accounts for stock-based
compensation using the intrinsic value method in accordance with
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and
related interpretations. As such, Delphi has followed the
nominal vesting period approach for awards issued with
retirement eligible provisions, and will continue to follow this
approach for existing awards and new awards issued prior to the
adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) in January 2006. Following
the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), Delphi will recognize
compensation cost based on the grant-date fair value
6
of the equity or liability instruments issued, with expense
recognized over the periods that an employee provides service in
exchange for the award. We are currently assessing the effects
of SFAS 123(R), but have not yet determined the impact on
the consolidated financial statements.
Stock options granted during 2004, 2003 and 2002 were
exercisable at prices equal to the fair market value of Delphi
common stock on the dates the options were granted; accordingly,
no compensation expense has been recognized for the stock
options granted. Compensation expense for the restricted stock
is recognized over the vesting period. Compensation expense for
SARs is recognized when the current stock price is greater than
the SARs exercise price. There were no stock options
granted during the three months ended March 31, 2005 and
2004.
If we accounted for all stock-based compensation using the fair
value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 and
related amendments, our net income (loss) and basic and diluted
earnings (loss) per share would have been as follows:

In May 2004, Delphis existing outstanding equity
compensation plans expired and shareholders approved a new
equity compensation plan, which provides for issuances of up to
36.5 million shares of common stock. During the second
quarter of 2004, we issued approximately 4.5 million
restricted stock units and approximately 6.8 million
options. On March 1, 2005, we issued approximately
4.3 million restricted stock units under the Long Term
Incentive Plan approved by shareholders in May 2004. During the
quarter ended March 31, 2005, no stock options were awarded
under this plan. As of March 31, 2005, there are
approximately 21 million shares available for future grants
under these plans.
Retention Payments During the first
quarter of 2005, we implemented a retention program for
U.S. salaried employees. Under the terms of the program,
U.S. salaried employees received retention payments
totaling approximately $13 million in the first quarter of
2005. Substantially all U.S. salaried executives will
receive a series of payments between September 2005 and
September 2006. Employees who voluntarily separate from Delphi
prior to March 1, 2008 have agreed and will be required to
repay the retention payments. The cost associated with the
retention program is being recognized over the related service
period, from March 2005 through February 2008.

EMPLOYEE AND PRODUCT LINE CHARGES |
In the third quarter of 2003, Delphi approved plans to reduce
our U.S. hourly workforce by up to approximately 5,000
employees, our U.S. salaried workforce by approximately 500
employees, and other non-U.S. workforce by approximately
3,000 employees. Our plans entail reductions to our workforce
through a variety of methods including regular attrition and
retirements, and voluntary and involuntary separations, as
applicable. Under certain elements of the plans, the
International Union, United
7
Automobile, Aerospace, and Agricultural Implement Workers of
America (UAW) hourly employees may return
(flowback) to General Motors (GM). As
required under generally accepted accounting principles, we
record the costs associated with the flowback to GM as the
employees accept the offer to exit Delphi. In conjunction with
such plans, we recorded charges for employee costs in the first
quarter of 2004 of $38 million, which is included in
employee and product line charges.
Delphi has and will continue to seek to transform its operating
cost structure to increase the proportion of manufacturing
conducted in regions of the world where labor costs are lower.
In conjunction therewith, we recorded $34 and $52 million
in cost of good sold in the three months ended March 31,
2005 and 2004, respectively, related to on-going employee
attrition programs. Such costs include cash-based payments,
costs for increased employee benefit liabilities, and other
employee liabilities.

product line charges (in millions):

During the first quarter of 2005 and 2004, we paid
$26 million and $193 million, respectively, related to
our restructuring plans announced in the third quarter of 2003.
We expect that less than $0.1 billion related to the third
quarter 2003 plans will be paid in subsequent quarters in 2005
and the remainder in 2006.
U.S. Program
We maintain a revolving accounts receivable securitization
program in the U.S. (U.S. Facility
Program). In March 2005, Delphi amended and renewed
through March 22, 2006 its U.S. Facility Program,
increasing the borrowing limit from $600 million to
$731 million. In addition, the U.S. Facility Program
was amended to conform the leverage ratio financial covenant
consistent with the amended covenant in our revolving credit
facilities (the Credit Facilities). Also, the
U.S. program lenders granted waivers similar to those
granted under the Credit Facilities amendments. The
U.S. program amendment also allows Delphi to maintain
effective control over the receivables such that effective March
2005, this program, which was previously accounted for as a sale
of receivables, will be accounted for as a secured borrowing. At
March 31, 2005, we were in compliance with all covenants
applicable to the U.S. Facility Program.
Under the U.S. Facility Program, we transfer a portion of
our U.S. originated trade receivables to Delphi Receivables
LLC (DR), a wholly owned consolidated special
purpose entity. DR may then transfer, on a non-recourse basis
(subject to certain limited exceptions), an undivided interest
in the receivables to asset-backed, multi-seller commercial
paper conduits (Conduits). Neither the Conduits nor
the associated banks are related to Delphi or DR. The Conduits
typically finance the purchases through the issuance of A1/P1
rated commercial paper. In the event that the Conduits become
unable to or otherwise elect not to issue commercial paper and
make purchases, the associated banks are obligated to make the
purchases. The sale of the undivided interest in the receivables
from DR to the Conduits was accounted for as a sale under the
provisions of SFAS No. 140, Accounting for the
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments
of Liabilities (SFAS 140) in periods
through
8
December 31, 2004. Through 2004, when DR sold an undivided
interest to the Conduits, DR retained the remaining undivided
interest. The value of the undivided interest sold to the
Conduits was excluded from our consolidated balance sheet
thereby reducing our accounts receivable in periods through
December 31, 2004. The value of the retained interest in
receivables held by DR, which may include eligible undivided
interests that we elect not to sell, was shown separately on our
consolidated balance sheet and therefore is not included in our
accounts receivable in 2004. As of December 31, 2004, the
retained interest in receivables was $726 million. We
assessed the recoverability of the retained interest on a
quarterly basis and adjusted to the carrying value as necessary.
At the time DR sold the undivided interest to the Conduits the
sale was recorded at fair value with the difference between the
carrying amount and fair value of the assets sold included in
operating income as a loss on sale. This difference between
carrying value and fair value is principally the estimated
discount inherent in the U.S. Facility Program, which
reflects the borrowing costs as well as fees and expenses of the
Conduits (1.4% to 1.6% in the first quarter of 2004), and the
length of time the receivables are expected to be outstanding.
The loss on sale was approximately $0.7 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2004. Additionally, we perform
collections and administrative functions on the receivables
transferred similar to the procedures we use for collecting all
of our receivables, including receivables that are not
transferred under the U.S. Facility Program. We can elect
to keep the collections and transfer additional receivables in
exchange; or, we can transfer the cash collections to the
Conduits thereby reducing the amount of transfers of undivided
interests to the Conduits. The nature of the collection and
administrative activities and the terms of the
U.S. Facility Program did not result in the recognition of
a servicing asset or liability in 2004 under the provisions of
SFAS 140 because the benefits of servicing were just
adequate to compensate us for our servicing responsibilities.
In June 2005, Delphi further amended the U.S. Facility
Program to add a new co-purchaser to the program, to adjust the
borrowing limit from $731 million to $730 million, and
to conform the leverage ratio financial covenant consistent to
the amended Facilities covenant. The U.S. Facility Program
lenders also granted waivers similar to those granted under the
Facilities amendments.
European Program
On December 23, 2004, we renewed the trade receivable
securitization program for certain of our European accounts
receivable at
225 million
($292 million at March 31, 2005 currency exchange
rates) and £10 million ($19 million at
March 31, 2005 currency exchange rates). Accounts
receivable transferred under this program are accounted for as
short-term debt. As of March 31, 2005 and 2004, we had no
significant accounts receivable transferred under this program.
The program expires on December 1, 2005 and can be
extended, based upon the mutual agreement of the parties.
Additionally, the European program contains a financial covenant
and certain other covenants similar to our Credit Facilities
that, if not met, could result in a termination of the
agreement. At March 31, 2005 and 2004, we were in
compliance with all such covenants.
In March 2005, Delphi amended the European trade receivables
securitization program. The European program was also amended to
conform the leverage ratio financial covenant consistent with
the amended credit facilities covenant and amend other
procedural terms.
We recognize expected warranty costs for products sold
principally at the time of sale of the product based on
management estimates of the amount that will eventually be
required to settle such obligations. These accruals are based on
several factors including past experience, production changes,
industry developments and various other considerations. Our
estimates are adjusted from time to time based on facts and
circumstances that impact the status of existing claims.

PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS |
Pension plans covering unionized employees in the
U.S. generally provide benefits of negotiated stated
amounts for each year of service, as well as supplemental
benefits for employees who qualify for retirement before normal
retirement age. The benefits provided by the plans covering
U.S. salaried employees are generally based on years of
service and salary history. Certain Delphi employees also
participate in nonqualified pension plans covering executives,
which are unfunded. Such plans are based on targeted wage
replacement percentages, and are generally not significant to
Delphi. Delphis funding policy with respect to its
qualified plans is to contribute annually, not less than the
minimum required by applicable laws and regulations.
The 2005 and 2004 amounts shown below reflect the defined
benefit pension and other postretirement benefit expense for the
three months ended March 31 for each year for
U.S. salaried and hourly employees:

Certain of Delphis non-U.S. subsidiaries also sponsor
defined benefit pension plans. The pension expense for these
locations for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and
2004 was $16 million and $22 million, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2005, Delphi made
no contributions to its pension plans, however, we are legally
required under ERISA to contribute approximately
$0.6 billion in 2005.
10
Effective March 1, 2005 Delphi amended its health care
benefits plan for salaried retirees. Under this plan amendment
effective January 1, 2007, Delphi reduced its obligations
to current salaried active employees, all current retirees and
surviving spouses who are retired and are eligible for Medicare
coverage. Based on a March 1, 2005 remeasurement date, the
expected impact of this amendment will be a decrease in the OPEB
liability of $0.8 billion and a decrease in 2005 expense of
$72 million. As SFAS No. 106
Employers Accounting for Postretirement Benefits
Other than Pensions requires a one-quarter lag from the
remeasurement date before applying the effects of the plan
amendment, income statement recognition of the plan amendment
will begin in June 2005.
|
|
6. |
DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES |
Delphi is exposed to market risk, such as fluctuations in
foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and changes in
interest rates, which may result in cash flow risks. To manage
the volatility relating to these exposures, we aggregate the
exposures on a consolidated basis to take advantage of natural
offsets. For exposures that are not offset within our
operations, we enter into various derivative transactions
pursuant to our risk management policies. Designation is
performed on a transaction basis to support hedge accounting.
The changes in fair value of these hedging instruments are
offset in part or in whole by corresponding changes in the fair
value or cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. We
assess the initial and ongoing effectiveness of our hedging
relationships in accordance with our documented policy. We do
not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading
purposes.
The fair value of derivative financial instruments as of
March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 included current
and non-current assets of $75 million and $99 million,
respectively and current and non-current liabilities of
$16 million and $43 million, respectively. Gains and
losses on derivatives qualifying as cash flow hedges are
recorded in other comprehensive income (OCI) to the
extent that hedges are effective until the underlying
transactions are recognized in earnings. Net gains included in
OCI as of March 31, 2005, were $57 million after-tax
($75 million pre-tax). Of this pre-tax total, a gain of
approximately $70 million is expected to be included in
cost of sales within the next 12 months. A loss of
approximately $2 million is expected to be included in
depreciation and amortization expense over the lives of the
related fixed assets and a gain of approximately $7 million
is expected to be included in interest expense over the term of
the related debt. The unrealized amounts in OCI will fluctuate
based on changes in the fair value of open contracts at each
reporting period. The amount included in cost of sales related
to hedge ineffectiveness and the time value of options was not
material.

Effective January 1, 2005, we realigned our business
sectors by moving three additional manufacturing operations into
the companys Automotive Holdings Group (AHG)
to accelerate efforts to bring these sites back to profitability
or resolve issues at these operations through other actions. AHG
was established to increase Delphi management focus on one
operating sector to resolve under-performing product lines or
sites, while enabling management of other operating sectors to
focus on growth and expansion. The additional operations named
to Delphis AHG include: Laurel, Mississippi; Kettering,
Ohio; and Home Avenue/ Vandalia, Ohio. Delphi continues to study
other sites for inclusion in AHG.
The realignment is designed to increase focus on products and
services for the greatest long-term benefit for Delphi while at
the same time placing an equal focus on businesses requiring
additional management attention. It is a further step in the
implementation of our long-term portfolio plans.
Management reviews our sector operating results for purposes of
making operating decisions and assessing performance. Included
below are sales and operating data for our realigned sectors for
the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004. The
2004 data has been reclassified to conform with the current
sector alignment.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
Ongoing SEC Investigation
Delphi is the subject of an ongoing investigation by the Staff
of the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) and
other federal authorities involving Delphis accounting and
adequacy of disclosures for a number of transactions. The
transactions being investigated include transactions in which
Delphi received
13
rebates or other lump-sum payments from suppliers, certain
off-balance sheet financings of indirect materials and
inventory, and the payment in 2000 of $237 million in cash,
and the subsequent receipt in 2001 of $85 million in
credits, as a result of certain settlement agreements entered
into between Delphi and its former parent company, General
Motors. Delphis Audit Committee has completed its internal
investigation of these transactions and concluded that many were
accounted for improperly. With the filing of this quarterly
report on Form 10-Q, for the quarter ended March 31,
2005, we will become current in our filings with the SEC.
Delphi is fully cooperating with the SECs ongoing
investigation and requests for information as well as the
related investigation being conducted by the Department of
Justice. The Company has entered into an agreement with the SEC
to suspend the running of the applicable statute of limitations
until April 6, 2006. Until these investigations are
complete, Delphi is not able to predict the effect, if any, that
these investigations will have on Delphis business and
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Shareholder Lawsuits
Several class action lawsuits have been commenced against
Delphi, several of Delphis subsidiaries, certain of its
current and former directors and officers of Delphi, General
Motors Management Corporation (the named fiduciary for
investment purposes and investment manager to Delphis
employee benefit plans), and several current and former
employees of Delphi or Delphis subsidiaries, as a result
of its announced intention to restate its originally issued
financial statements. These lawsuits fall into three categories.
One group has been brought under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA),
purportedly on behalf of participants in certain of the
Companys and its subsidiaries defined contribution
employee benefit pension plans who invested in the Delphi
Corporation Common Stock Fund. Plaintiffs allege that the plans
suffered losses due to the defendants breaches of
fiduciary duties under ERISA. To date, the Company has received
service in five such lawsuits and is aware of an additional
eleven that are pending. All pending cases have been filed in
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan.
The second group of purported class action lawsuits variously
alleges that the Company and certain of its current and former
directors and officers made materially false and misleading
statements in violation of federal securities laws. To date, the
Company has been served in six such lawsuits and is aware of
eight additional lawsuits. The lawsuits have been filed in the
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan,
the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New
York, and the U.S. District Court for Southern District of
Florida.
The third group of lawsuits pertains to two shareholder
derivative cases and a demand. To date, certain current and
former directors and officers have been named in two such
lawsuits. One has been served in Oakland County Circuit Court in
Pontiac, Michigan, and a second is pending in the
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.
In addition, the Company has received a demand letter from a
shareholder requesting that the Company consider bringing a
derivative action against certain current and former officers.
The derivative lawsuits and the request demand the Company
consider further derivative action premised on allegations that
certain current and former officers made materially false and
misleading statements in violation of federal securities laws.
The Company has appointed a special committee of the Board of
Directors to consider the demand request.
Due to the preliminary nature of these cases, the Company is not
able to predict with certainty the outcome of this litigation or
its potential exposure related thereto. Although Delphi believes
that any loss that the Company would suffer under such lawsuits
should, after payment of a $10 million deductible, be
covered by its director and officer insurance policy, it cannot
assure you that the impact of any loss not covered by insurance
or applicable reserves would not be material. Delphi has
recorded a reserve related to these lawsuits equal to the amount
of its insurance deductible.
14
Ordinary Business Litigation
Delphi is from time to time subject to various legal actions and
claims incidental to its business, including those arising out
of alleged defects, breach of contracts, product warranties,
intellectual property matters, environmental matters, and
employment-related matters.
As previously disclosed, with respect to environmental matters,
Delphi received notices that it is a potentially responsible
party (PRP) in proceedings at various sites,
including the Tremont City Landfill Site located in Tremont,
Ohio which is alleged to concern ground water contamination. In
September 2002, Delphi and other PRPs entered into a Consent
Order with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
to perform a Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study
concerning a portion of the site, which is expected to be
completed during 2006. Based on findings to date, we believe
that a reasonably possible outcome of the investigative study is
capping and future monitoring of this site, which would
substantially limit future remediation costs and we have
included an estimate of our share of the potential costs of such
a remedy plus the cost to complete the investigation in our
overall reserve estimate. Because the scope of the investigation
and the extent of the required remediation are still being
determined, it is possible that the final resolution of this
matter may require that we make material future expenditures for
remediation, possibly over an extended period of time and
possibly in excess of our existing reserves. We will continue to
re-assess any potential remediation costs and, as appropriate,
our overall environmental reserves as the investigation proceeds.
With respect to warranty matters, although we cannot ensure that
the future costs of warranty claims by customers will not be
material, we believe our established reserves are adequate to
cover potential warranty settlements. However, the final amounts
determined to be due related to these matters could differ
materially from our recorded estimates. Additionally, in
connection with our separation from GM, we agreed to indemnify
GM against substantially all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or activities arising out of or in connection with
our business post-separation. Due to the nature of such
indemnities we are not able to estimate the maximum amount.
With respect to intellectual property matters, on
September 7, 2004, we received the arbitrators
binding decision resolving a dispute between Delphi and Litex.
In May 2001, Litex had filed suit against Delphi in federal
court in the District of Massachusetts alleging infringement of
certain patents regarding methods to reduce engine exhaust
emissions. As previously disclosed, the results of the
arbitration did not have a material impact on Delphis
financial condition, operations or business prospects. However,
in March 2005, we received correspondence from counsel
representing Litex that Litex intended to file various tort
claims against Delphi in California state court. On
March 4, 2005, Delphi filed a complaint in the federal
court for the District of Massachusetts seeking declaratory
relief to enforce the parties agreement in the original
case prohibiting Litex from bringing such claims. On
March 28, 2005, Litex countersued asserting various tort
claims against Delphi and requesting that the court void aspects
of the parties agreement in the original case. This matter
remains pending before the federal court for the District of
Massachusetts.
Additionally, as previously disclosed, we have been mediating a
number of patent disputes regarding vehicle occupant detection
technologies with Takata Corporation and its subsidiaries. On
December 1, 2004, the parties resolved these disputes to
their mutual satisfaction by entering into a cross-license
agreement concerning various patents in the field of vehicle
occupant detection technologies.
Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of
individual litigated matters is not predictable with assurance.
After discussions with counsel, it is the opinion of management
that the outcome of such matters will not have a material
adverse impact on the consolidated financial position, results
of operations or cash flows of Delphi.
Non-binding Letter of Intent
The Company has signed a non-binding letter of intent to sell
its global lead-acid battery business, comprised of assets
totaling approximately $175 million.
15
Several events have occurred subsequent to March 31, 2005
that, although they do not impact the reported balances or
results of operations as of that date, are material to the
Companys ongoing operations. Those items include: the
completion of our refinancing plan in June 2005 as described
more fully in Note 10 Debt to the 2004 Annual Report on
Form 10-K being filed concurrently with this report;
shareholder and derivative lawsuits initiated in early 2005 as
described more fully in Note 9 Commitments and
Contingencies to these financial statements; changes to
U.S. salaried employees health care benefits implemented in
March 2005 as described more fully in Note 5 Pension and
Other Postretirement Benefits to these financial statements; and
purchases of certain previously leased facilities in June 2005
as described more fully in Note 13 Commitments and
Contingencies to the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In
addition, the Company contributed $0.6 billion to its
defined benefit pension plan in June 2005.

ITEM 2. |
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
Executive Summary of business
We are a global supplier of vehicle electronics, transportation
components, integrated systems and modules and other electronic
technology. Our technologies are present in more than
75 million vehicles on the road worldwide as well as in
communication, computer, consumer electronic, energy and medical
applications. We operate in extremely competitive markets. Our
customers select us based upon numerous factors including
technology, quality and price. Supplier selection in the auto
industry is generally finalized several years prior to the start
of production of the vehicle. As a result, business that we win
in 2005 will generally not impact our financial results until
2007 or beyond. Additionally, our results are heavily dependent
on overall vehicle production throughout the world. Consistent
with one of the primary rationales for separating Delphi from
General Motors (GM), we have diversified our
customer base significantly since our separation from GM in 1999
(the Separation). In the first quarter of 2005, our
sales to customers other than GM exceeded our sales to GM for
the first time. Our sales to GM have declined since the
Separation; principally reflecting the impact of customer
trends, the exit of some businesses, changes in our vehicle
content and the product mix supplied to them, as well as
GMs diversification of its supply base.
Critical success factors for us include managing our overall
global manufacturing footprint to ensure proper placement and
workforce levels in line with business needs as well as
competitive wages and benefits, maximizing efficiencies in
manufacturing processes, fixing or eliminating unprofitable
businesses, including those that are part of our Automotive
Holdings Group (AHG) operations, and reducing
overall material costs. In addition, our customers generally
require that we demonstrate improved efficiencies, through cost
reductions and/or price decreases, on a year-over-year basis.
See Results of Operations for more details as to the
factors, which drive year-over-year performance.
Our first quarter 2005 net sales were $6.9 billion,
down from $7.4 billion in the first quarter of 2004. Non-GM
revenues were $3.5 billion, or 50% of sales, up 7.7% from
the first quarter of 2004. Our first quarter 2005 GM sales were
$3.4 billion, down 18.9% from the first quarter of 2004.
The net loss for the first quarter 2005 was $403 million.
Quarter over quarter, we benefited from the steady growth of our
non-GM business and have continued to diversify our customer
base through sales of technology rich products and systems-based
solutions for vehicles and non-auto applications. The employee
and product line initiatives announced in 2003 are now complete.
Savings realized from our prior restructuring plans combined
with other operating performance improvements have allowed us to
partially offset the challenges of rising wages, pension and
healthcare costs, as well as continued price pressures. We
remain focused on reducing structural costs. In the first
quarter of 2005, we experienced a more challenging
U.S. vehicle manufacturer production environment combined
with slowing attrition of our U.S. hourly workforce,
increased commodity price pressures as well as program launch
and volume related cost issues.
During the first quarter of 2005, we were challenged by
commodity cost increases, most notably steel and petroleum-based
resin products. We continue to proactively work with our
suppliers and customers to manage these cost pressures. Despite
our efforts, cost increases, particularly when necessary to
ensure the continued financial viability of key suppliers, had
the effect of reducing our earnings during the first quarter of
2005. Raw material steel supply has continued to be constrained
and commodity cost pressures have continued to intensify as our
supply contracts expire during 2005. For 2005, we expect to
incur $0.4 billion of higher commodity cost than 2004. This
amount includes $0.1 billion for costs associated with
troubled suppliers. We have been seeking to manage these cost
pressures using a combination of techniques, including working
with our suppliers to mitigate costs, seeking alternative
product designs and material specifications, combining our
purchase requirements with our customers and/or suppliers,
changing suppliers and other means. To the extent that we
experience cost increases we will seek to pass these cost
increases on to our customers, but if we are not successful, our
earnings in future periods may be adversely impacted. To date,
due to previously established contractual terms, our success in
passing
17
commodity cost increases on to our customers has been limited.
As contracts with our customers expire, we will seek to
renegotiate terms that enable us to recover the actual commodity
costs we are incurring.
Our Board of Directors and management use cash generated by the
businesses as a measure of our performance. We believe the
ability to consistently generate cash flow from operations is
critical to increasing Delphis value. We use the cash that
we generate in our operations for strengthening our balance
sheet, including reducing legacy liabilities such as pensions,
restructuring our operations, generating growth, and paying
dividends. We believe that looking at our ability to generate
cash provides investors with additional insight into our
performance. Refer to further discussion of cash flows in
Liquidity and Capital Resources below.
We will continue to seek savings from restructuring plans and
improvements in operating performance to address the challenges
of legacy costs associated with declining GM revenues, rising
commodity costs, increased wages, pension and healthcare costs,
as well as continued price pressures. On December 10, 2004,
we announced restructuring plans for 2005 to further reduce our
workforce by 8,500 positions in 2005 through GM flowbacks,
normal attrition and incentivized retirements. Of the total
reductions, 3,000 are expected to be U.S. hourly employees
and 5,500 are planned to be non-U.S. employees. Total
charges related to these initiatives are expected to be
primarily cash charges in the range of approximately
$137 million pre-tax.
Results of Operations
The following managements discussion and analysis of
financial condition and results of operations
(MD&A) should be read in conjunction with the
MD&A included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the

|
The 2004 data has been reclassified to conform to the
realignment of our business sectors by moving three additional
manufacturing operations in the companys Automotive
Holdings Group (AHG) to accelerate efforts to bring
these sites back to profitability or resolve issues at these
operations through other actions. |
Consolidated net sales for the first quarter of 2005 were
$6.9 billion compared to $7.4 billion for the same
period of 2004. Our non-GM sales increased by $247 million,
including $93 million resulting from favorable currency
exchange rates. Excluding the effects of favorable currency
exchange rates, our non-GM sales increased $154 million or
4.8%. This non-GM sales increase was due to new business from
diversifying our global customer base, and the migration of
certain product programs from sales to GM to sales to
Tier I customers, partially offset by price decreases. As a
percent of our net sales for the first quarter of 2005, our
non-GM sales were 50%. Net sales to GM decreased by
$790 million, including
18
$26 million of favorable currency exchange rates. Excluding
the effects of favorable currency exchange rates, our GM sales
decreased $816 million or 19.5%. The GM sales decrease was
principally due to volume decreases as a result of lower GM
North America production and to a lesser extent price decreases
and decisions to exit certain businesses. Our net sales were
reduced by continued price pressures that resulted in price
reductions of approximately $149 million or 2% for the
first quarter of 2005, compared to approximately
$126 million or 1.7% for the first quarter of 2004.
Gross Margin. Our gross margin was 5.3% for the first
quarter of 2005 compared to gross margin of 11.4% for the first
quarter of 2004. Gross margin in 2005 and 2004 was negatively
impacted by $34 million and $52 million, respectively,
of costs related to on-going employee attrition programs. The
first quarter of 2005 gross margin as compared to the first
quarter of 2004 was negatively impacted by reductions in selling
prices of approximately 1.9% of sales, increased wage and
benefit costs of approximately 1.7% of sales and commodity price
increases of approximately $80 million. These cost
increases were partially offset by savings resulting from our
restructuring activities and on-going cost reduction efforts.
Slower U.S. hourly workforce attrition combined with lower
production volumes and launch challenges negatively impacted our
ability to offset the cost increase noted above.
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and
administrative (SG&A) expenses of
$394 million or 5.7% of total net sales for the first
quarter of 2005 were consistent with $378 million or 5.1%
of total net sales for the first quarter of 2004. The slight
increase is due to third-party costs associated with our Audit
Committee accounting investigation, economics, and exchange rate
effects mostly offset by cost performance.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and
amortization was $292 million for the first quarter of 2005
compared to $282 million for the first quarter of 2004; the
increase primarily reflects the impact of currency exchange
rates as well as the depreciation of assets newly placed in
service.
Employee and Product Line Charges. In the third quarter
of 2003, Delphi approved plans to reduce our U.S. hourly
workforce by up to approximately 5,000 employees, our
U.S. salaried workforce by approximately 500 employees, and
other non-U.S. workforce by approximately 3,000 employees.
Our plans entail reductions to our workforce through a variety
of methods including regular attrition and retirements, and
voluntary and involuntary separations, as applicable. Under
certain elements of the plans, the International Union, United
Automobile, Aerospace, and Agricultural Implement Workers of
America (UAW) hourly employees may return
(flowback) to General Motors (GM). As
required under generally accepted accounting principles, we
record the costs associated with the flowback to GM as the
employees accept the offer to exit Delphi. In conjunction with
such plans, we recorded charges for employee costs in 2004 of
$38 million. Such amount is included in employee and
product line charges.
Delphi has and will continue to seek to transform its operating
cost structure to increase the proportion of manufacturing
conducted in regions of the world where labor costs are lower.
In conjunction therewith, we recorded $34 and $52 million
in cost of good sold in the three months ended March 31,
2005 and 2004, respectively, related to on-going employee
attrition programs. Such costs include cash-based payments,
costs for increased employee benefit liabilities, and other
employee liabilities.

During the first quarter of 2005 and 2004, we paid
$26 million and $193 million, respectively, related to
our restructuring plans announced in the third quarter of 2003.
We expect that less than $0.1 billion related to the third
quarter 2003 plans will be paid in subsequent quarters in 2005
and the remainder in 2006.
Operating Results. Our operating loss was
$324 million for the first quarter of 2005 compared to
operating income of $143 million for the first quarter of
2004. The 2004 results include charges of $52 million in
cost of sales and $38 million in employee and product line
charges (the 2004 Charges). Management reviews our
sector operating income results excluding these charges.
Accordingly, we have separately presented such amounts in the

Our operating loss for the first quarter of 2005 was
$324 million compared to operating income of
$233 million for the first quarter of 2004 excluding the
impact of the 2004 Charges. The first quarter of 2005 operating
loss includes $34 million of costs associated with on-going
employee attrition programs. Operating income was negatively
impacted by selling price decreases of approximately 1.9% of
sales, increased wage and benefit costs of approximately 1.7% of
sales and commodity price increases. These cost increases were
partially offset by savings resulting from our restructuring
activities and on going cost reduction efforts totaling
approximately 3% of sales.
Taxes. We recorded an income tax expense in the first
quarter of 2005 of $37 million as compared to an income tax
expense for the first quarter of 2004 of $23 million.
During the first quarter of 2005, we recorded tax expense on
non-U.S. pre-tax earnings and no longer provided income tax
benefit on our U.S. losses. This resulted in an income tax
expense even though we had pre-tax losses. During the first
quarter of 2004, our effective tax rate (including the tax
related to minority interest) was 35%.
2004 and 2003 Segment Reporting
Effective January 1, 2005, we realigned our business
sectors by moving three additional manufacturing operations in
the companys Automotive Holdings Group (AHG)
to accelerate efforts to bring these sites back to profitability
or resolve issues at these operations through other actions. The
additional operations named to Delphis AHG include:
Laurel, Mississippi; Kettering, Ohio; and Home Avenue/ Vandalia,
Ohio. Delphi continues to study other sites for inclusion in
AHG. Our segment data shown above is based on our realigned
sectors; for comparative purposes, the financial data for all
the quarterly periods in 2004, the year ended December 31,
2004 and the year ended December 31, 2003 is shown below.
Management reviews our sector operating results for 2004 and
2003 for purposes of making
20
operating decisions and assessing performance excluding certain
charges. For 2004, these include charges in the first quarter of
2004 of $52 million in cost of sales and $38 million
in employee and product line charges (the First Quarter
2004 Charges); in the second quarter of 2004 of
$14 million in cost of sales and $32 million in
employee and product line charges (the Second Quarter 2004
Charges); in the third quarter of 2004 of $17 million
on cost of sales and $9 million in employee and product
line charges (the Third Quarter 2004 Charges); and
in the fourth quarter of 2004 of $40 million in cost of
sales, $372 million in depreciation and amortization and
$113 million in employee and product line charges (the
Fourth Quarter 2004 Charges). For 2003, these
include the charges of 2003 of $107 million in cost of
sales, $58 million in depreciation and amortization and
$396 million in employee and product line charges (the
2003 Charges). Accordingly, we have presented our
sector results excluding such charges.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
|
|
|
Overview of Capital Structure |
Our objective is to appropriately finance our business through a
mix of long-term and short-term debt, and to ensure that we have
adequate access to liquidity. Of our $3.4 billion of
outstanding debt at March 31, 2005, $2.0 billion was
senior, unsecured debt with maturities ranging from 2006 to 2029
and approximately $0.4 billion was junior subordinated
notes due to Delphi Trust I and II. This long-term debt
primarily finances our long-term fixed assets. As of
March 31, 2005, we have approximately $1.0 billion of
short-term debt and other debt. We have varying needs for
short-term working capital financing as a result of the nature
of our business. Our cash flows during the year are impacted by
the volume and timing of vehicle production, which includes a
halt in certain operations of our North American customers for
approximately two weeks in July and one week in December and
reduced production in July and August for certain European
customers. We finance our working capital through a mix of
committed facilities, including receivables securitization
programs, and uncommitted facilities, including bank lines and
factoring lines and to a lesser extent commercial paper.
Although the latter group was not committed, these facilities
were available to us during the first quarter of 2005.
Throughout the first quarter of 2005, we also maintained
$3.0 billion of committed Credit Facilities. These Credit
Facilities consisted of a 364-day revolving credit line in the
amount of $1.5 billion, which expired June 2005, and a
five-year revolving credit line in the amount of
$1.5 billion, which will expire in June 2009. As disclosed
in our Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 15, 2005,
we recently amended our five-year $1.5 billion credit line
by increasing the available credit to $1.8 billion and
securing the facility with a first lien on substantially all
material tangible and intangible assets of Delphi including 65%
of the capital stock of our first tier of foreign subsidiaries.
In addition, the Company raised $1.0 billion through a
cross-collateralized term loan. We used a portion of the term
loan to fund $0.6 billion of pension contributions while
the remainder was used to pay down short-term debt. As a result
of the foregoing refinancing, Delphi maintains access to
$1.8 billion of committed liquidity through the revolving
credit facility, $730 million through the
U.S. securitization program, and
225 million
and £10 million through the European securitization
programs subject to the limits imposed by our financial
covenants. We view these facilities as providing an ample source
of back-up liquidity that is available in case of an
unanticipated event.
Our capital planning process is focused on ensuring that we use
our cash flow generated from our operations in ways that enhance
the value of our company. Historically, we used our cash for a
mix of activities focused on revenue growth, cost reduction,
balance sheet strengthening and to pay dividends. In the first
quarter of 2005, we used our cash primarily for funding our
legacy cost transformation programs and balance sheet
strengthening, and to a lesser extent for dividends. In 2005, we
plan to use our cash principally to strengthen our balance sheet
and reduce operating costs. As part of our capital planning, we
have taken into account that we currently have ERISA pension
funding minimums of $1.1 billion in 2006. Based upon
current overall macro economic conditions, we will likely face
additional ERISA minimums in 2007. In addition, we anticipate
approximately $0.2 billion of product line and employee
cost payments, from our previously announced and ongoing
restructuring programs, and $20 million to $70 million of
dividends in 2005. We expect that we will be able to fund these
amounts with cash flow from operations, the repatriation of
earnings and excess cash from non-U.S. operations and the
new $1.0 billion term loan. We further expect that we will
be able to fund our longer-term requirements, including
repayments of debt securities and payments for purchase options
and residual value guarantees on operating leases, if exercised,
as they become due.

Bonds and Trust Preferred Securities |
In addition to the $1.0 billion secured term loan obtained
on June 2005, Delphi has unsecured debt. Our unsecured debt
includes our next maturity of $500 million of securities
bearing interest at 6.55% and maturing on June 15, 2006,
$500 million of securities bearing interest at 6.50% and
maturing on May 1, 2009, $500 million of securities
bearing interest at 6.50% and maturing on August 15, 2013
and $500 million of securities bearing interest at 7.125%
and maturing on May 1, 2029.
We also have trust preferred securities that were issued by our
wholly-owned subsidiaries, Delphi Trust I and Delphi
Trust II. Delphi Trust I (Trust I)
issued 10,000,000 shares of
81/4%
Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities, with a liquidation
amount of $25 per trust preferred security and an aggregate
liquidation preference amount of $250 million. These
securities are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the
symbol DPHprA. The sole assets of Trust I are
$257 million of aggregate principal amount of Delphi junior
subordinated notes due 2033. Trust I will pay cumulative
cash distributions at an annual rate equal to
81/4%
of the liquidation amount on the preferred securities. Delphi
Trust II (Trust II) issued
150,000 shares of Adjustable Rate Trust Preferred
Securities with a five-year initial rate of 6.197%, a
liquidation amount of $1,000 per trust preferred security
and an aggregate liquidation preference amount of
$150 million. The sole assets of Trust II are
$155 million aggregate principal amount of Delphi junior
subordinated notes due 2033. Trust II pays cumulative cash
distributions at an annual rate equal to 6.197% of the
liquidation amount during the initial fixed rate period (which
is through November 15, 2008) on the preferred securities.
Since our Form 10-Q for the third quarter of 2004,
Form 10-K for the year ended 2004, and Form 10-Q for
the first quarter of 2005 were not filed timely due to the Audit
Committee investigation, we are now deficient in our SEC
filings. We are currently ineligible to use Forms S-2 and
S-3 to register securities until all required reports under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 have been timely filed for the
12 months prior to the filing of the registration statement
for those securities. This means that we are unable to use our
presently effective shelf registration statement to sell
securities in the public market without first obtaining a waiver
from the SEC. However, we do not believe this will have a
material impact on our liquidity as we are going to other
markets to secure financings. In addition, we do not believe
that the delay in our filing situation has had a material
adverse effect on our available credit facilities (described
above) or the indentures governing our debt obligations. With
the filing of our Form 10-K for the year ended 2004 and our
other delinquent filings referred to above, we have returned to
compliant filing status.

Available Credit Facilities |
Throughout 2004, Delphi had two financing arrangements with a
syndicate of lenders providing for an aggregate of
$3.0 billion in available revolving credit facilities (the
Credit Facilities), reduced by the amount of any
outstanding letters of credit. The terms of the Credit
Facilities provided for a five-year revolving credit line in the
amount of $1.5 billion, which was renewed in 2004 and now
expires in June 2009, and a 364-day revolving credit line in the
amount of $1.5 billion, which expired in June 2005. For a
description of our current credit facilities, as recently
amended see the preceding discussion on Overview of Capital
Structure. We have never borrowed under either of these Credit
Facilities. However, Delphi had approximately $74 million
in letters of credit outstanding against the Credit Facilities
as of March 31, 2005.
On March 28, 2005, Delphi reached agreement with its
syndicate of lenders to amend certain terms of its
$3.0 billion revolving credit facilities including its
EBITDA coverage ratio. Delphi also agreed to the elimination of
its option to extend repayment for up to one year beyond the
expiration date of its 364-day revolving credit line for any
amounts outstanding on the expiration date. Additionally, the
syndicate of lenders waived Delphis obligation to provide
audited financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2004 until June 30, 2005. Our Credit
Facilities also contain certain affirmative and negative
covenants including a financial covenant requirement for a debt
to EBITDA coverage ratio not to exceed 3.25 to 1.0 at
March 31, 2005. In addition, certain of our lease
facilities discussed below contain cross-default
24
provisions to our Credit Facilities. We were in compliance with
the financial covenant and all other covenants as of
March 31, 2005.
On June 14, 2005, Delphi reached agreement with its
syndicate of lenders to amend certain terms of its existing
$1.5 billion five-year revolving credit facility (the
Revolving Credit Facility). The amendment increased
the available credit under Delphis Revolving Credit
Facility to $1.8 billion and added a $1.0 billion
six-year term loan (the Term Loan, and together with
the Revolving Credit Facility, the Facilities). As
previously announced, upon the effectiveness of the new
Facilities, Delphi terminated its 364-day revolving credit
facility in the amount of $1.5 billion.
As a result of the foregoing refinancing, Delphi has replaced
its previous $3.0 billion revolving credit facility with
$2.8 billion of available credit, the Term Loan portion of
which has been fully funded. Prior to the amendment, there were
no amounts outstanding under the $1.5 billion five-year
revolving credit facility or the $1.5 billion 364-day
facility, nor had these revolving credit facilities been
previously borrowed upon. Delphi believes that the completion of
this refinancing plan should provide Delphi with access to
sufficient liquidity to continue to address its U.S. legacy
cost issues during the current low GM North American production
environment. As contemplated under the Facilities, on
June 14, 2005 Delphi contributed $475 million to its
U.S. pension plans, bringing the total contributions for
the quarter to $625 million and fulfilling Delphis
2005 minimum pension funding requirements.
The Term Loan requires interest payments during the term at a
variable interest rate of 650 basis points above the
Eurodollar base rate, which is the London Interbank Borrowing
Rate (LIBOR). On June 14, 2005, one-month LIBOR
was 3.2% per annum. The LIBOR interest rate period can be
set at a one, two, three or six-month period as selected by
Delphi in accordance with the terms of the Facilities.
Accordingly, the interest rate will fluctuate based on the
movement of LIBOR through the term of the loan. The Term Loan
has a 1% per annum amortization for the first 5 years
and 9 months. The then outstanding principal and any
accrued and unpaid interest is due in full at the end of term,
on June 14, 2011. The Term Loan is not repayable in the
first year and, in accordance with the terms of the Facilities,
during the second and third year is subject to call premiums on
the balance outstanding of 2% and 1%, respectively. After the
third year, the then outstanding Term Loan principal is
repayable without premium or penalty.
The Revolving Credit Facility carries a variable interest rate
of 500 basis points above LIBOR on outstanding borrowings
subject to adjustment based on Delphis credit ratings. The
Revolving Credit Facility has a commitment fee payable on the
unused portion of 50 bps per annum, which is also subject
to adjustment based upon Delphis credit ratings. Each of
the interest rates on borrowings and the commitment fee under
the Revolving Credit Facility is adjustable and will fluctuate
as described for the Term Loan. The Revolving Credit Facility
will expire June 18, 2009. Borrowings under the Revolving
Credit Facility are prepayable at Delphis option without
premium or penalty.
The Facilities provide the lenders with a first lien on
substantially all material tangible and intangible assets of
Delphi and its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (however,
Delphi is only pledging 65% of the stock of its first tier
foreign subsidiaries) and further provides that amounts borrowed
under the Facilities will be guaranteed by Delphis
wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (except for insignificant
subsidiaries and subsidiaries that participate in accounts
receivable financings). The amount outstanding at any one time
is limited by a borrowing base computation. The borrowing base
is calculated as the sum of (a) 85% of U.S. accounts
receivable (excluding accounts receivable which have been sold
into the U.S. accounts receivables securitization program)
of Delphi and its subsidiaries, (b) 60% of inventory
(including raw materials, work in progress and finished goods,
but excluding inventory to the extent subject to accounts
receivable financings) of Delphi and its subsidiaries that is
located in the United States or which is owned but consigned to
Mexican subsidiaries, and (c) $750,000,000 with respect to
U.S. plant, property and equipment of Delphi and its
subsidiaries. The terms of the Facilities specifically limit the
obligations to be secured by a security interest in certain
U.S. manufacturing properties and U.S. manufacturing
subsidiaries in order to ensure that at the time of any
borrowing under the Term Loan or the Revolving Credit Facility,
the amount of the applicable borrowing which is secured by such
assets (together with other
25
borrowings which are secured by such assets and obligations in
respect of certain sale-leaseback transactions) will not exceed
15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets (as defined in the
indenture applicable to Delphis outstanding bonds and
debentures).
The amended Facilities contain financial covenants based on
consolidated leverage ratios, which are tested at each
quarter-end using the ratio of (a) secured debt (excluding
letters of credit, but including, without limitation, Term
Loans, revolving loans, funded debt in respect of receivables
securitizations and factoring facilities, and any other secured
debt (including second lien debt) permitted under the terms of
the Facilities, minus cash on each test date in excess of
$500,000,000, (provided that the amount of such cash deducted
shall in no event exceed $500,000,000) to (b) the aggregate
sum of the preceding four quarters EBITDA (as defined in the
Facilities). The above mentioned ratio cannot exceed 2.75 to 1
for each of the quarters through and including June 30,
2006, 2.50 to 1 for the quarters from September 30, 2006 to
and including September 30, 2007, and 2.25 to 1 for the
fourth quarter of 2007 and thereafter. Further, the syndicate of
lenders waived Delphis obligation to provide audited
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004
until September 30, 2005, and agreed not to consider any
inaccuracy of Delphis non-GAAP measures of net liquidity
as disclosed in Delphis Form 8-K Current Report filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 9, 2005
as a material adverse change.

Other Financial Transactions |
We maintain a revolving accounts receivable securitization
program in the U.S. (U.S. Facility
Program). In March 2005, Delphi amended and renewed
through March 22, 2006 its U.S. Facility Programs,
increasing the borrowing limit from $600 million to
$731 million. In addition, the U.S. Facility Program
was amended to conform the leverage ratio financial covenant
consistent with the amended Credit Facilities covenant.
Also, the U.S. program lenders granted waivers similar to
those granted under the Credit Facilities amendments. The
U.S. program amendment also allows Delphi to maintain
effective control over the receivables such that effective March
2005, this program, which was previously accounted for as a sale
of receivables, will be accounted for prospectively as a secured
borrowing. At March 31, 2005, we were in compliance with
all such covenants.
In June 2005, Delphi further amended the U.S. Facility
Program to add a new co-purchaser to the program, to adjust the
borrowing limit from $731 million to $730 million, and
to conform the leverage ratio financial covenant consistent to
the amended Facilities covenant. The U.S. Facility
Program lenders also granted waivers similar to those granted
under the Facilities amendments.
On December 23, 2004, we renewed the trade receivable
securitization program for certain of our European accounts
receivable at
225 million
($292 million at March 31, 2005 currency exchange
rates) and £10 million ($19 million at
March 31, 2005 currency exchange rates). Accounts
receivable transferred under this program are accounted for as
short-term debt. As of March 31, 2005, we had no
significant accounts receivable transferred under this program.
The program expires on December 1, 2005 and can be
extended, based upon the mutual agreement of the parties.
Additionally, the European program contains a financial covenant
and certain other covenants similar to our revolving Credit
Facilities (discussed above) that, if not met, could result in a
termination of the agreement. At March 31, 2005, we were in
compliance with all such covenants.
From time to time, certain subsidiaries may also sell
receivables on a non-recourse basis in the normal course of
their operations. As of March 31, 2005, and 2004, certain
European subsidiaries sold accounts receivable totaling
$371 million and $225 million, respectively. Changes
in the level of receivables sold from year to year are included
in the change in accounts receivable within cash flow from
operations.
We have leased certain property, primarily land and buildings
that are used in our operations, under leases commonly known as
synthetic leases. The leases, which have been accounted for as
operating leases, provide us tax treatment equivalent to
ownership, and also provide us with the option to purchase these
properties at any time during the term or to cause the
properties to be remarketed upon lease expiration. The leases
also provide that if we do not exercise our purchase option upon
expiration of the term and instead elect our remarketing option,
we would pay any difference between the purchase option amount
26
and the proceeds of remarketing, up to a maximum of
approximately $89 million. At December 31, 2004, the
aggregate fair value of these properties exceeded the minimum
value guaranteed upon exercise of the remarketing option. As of
December 31, 2004, the recorded estimate of the fair value
of the residual value guarantee related to these leases was
approximately $2 million. Under the terms of the lease
agreements, we also provide certain indemnities to the lessor,
including environmental indemnities. In addition, the leases
contain certain covenants, including a financial covenant
requirement that our debt to EBITDA coverage ratio, as defined
in the agreement, not exceed 3.25 to 1. Unlike the Credit
Facilities, this financial covenant has not been amended. In the
event of a default of the terms of the leases, the lessors have
the right to notify us of their election to require that we
purchase the synthetically leased properties, which would
require us to pay the aggregate purchase price of approximately
$130 million. Though we were in compliance with our
financial covenants at December 31, 2004, our audited
financials indicate that at March 31, 2005, our debt to
EBITDA coverage ratio exceeded 3.25 to 1. Although we have
received no notices from the lessors of their election to
obligate us to purchase the synthetically leased properties, in
June we commenced the process of exercising our purchase
options. As a result, we completed the purchase of our
headquarters property and two manufacturing facilities in the
State of Alabama for approximately $103 million on
June 28, 2005. The purchase of the second facility, for
approximately $28 million, has not yet been completed.
We also from time to time, enter into arrangements with
suppliers or other parties that result in variable interest
entities as defined by FIN 46. At March 31, 2005, we
had one variable interest entity (VIE), which is a
supplier to one of our U.S. facilities. Our arrangement
with this supplier is to reimburse it for losses incurred
related to materials supplied to us and to receive a refund for
any profits that it makes as it relates to material supplied to
us. This arrangement is in effect through 2007. In 2005, this
VIE had sales of approximately $10 million, 69% of which
were to Delphi. This supplier has approximately $4 million
in assets and $4 million in liabilities; the latter of
which include a loan of approximately $2.7 million from
Delphi. This VIE does not have any other means of support other
than Delphi. As required under FIN 46, we have consolidated
this entity and eliminated all intercompany transactions. Given
the nature of our relationship with this VIE, it is not possible
to estimate the maximum amount of our exposure or the fair
value. However, we do not expect such amounts, if any, to be
material.

Customer Financing Programs |
Our program with the General Electric Capital Corporation
(GECC) that allowed our suppliers to factor their
receivables from us to GECC for early payment was discontinued
in the first quarter of 2005.
Delphi is rated by Standard & Poors, Moodys
and Fitch Ratings. We currently have senior unsecured ratings of
B-/ B3/ B, respectively, preferred stock ratings of CCC+/ Caa2/
CCC+, respectively, and senior secured debt ratings of BB-/ B1/
BB-, respectively, due to downgrades in 2005. As a result of the
downgrades, our facility fee and borrowing costs under our
existing five-year Credit Facility increased although
availability was unaffected. We believe we will continue to have
access to sufficient liquidity; however, our cost of borrowing
will increase and our ability to access certain financial
markets has been limited. In the event of a further downgrade,
the cost of borrowing will continue to increase and availability
to liquidity may be further constrained.
Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating
activities totaled $529 million and $40 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004,
respectively. Changes in the levels of factoring and
securitization reduced first quarter 2005 and first quarter 2004
cash flow from operating activities by approximately
$333 million and $160 million, respectively. Excluding
cash paid for employee and product line charges, net cash
provided by operating activities totaled $555 million and
$181 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005
and 2004, respectively. The increase in cash provided by
operating activities
27
is primarily due to improved working capital. In addition to the
items described above, operating cash flow is impacted by the
timing of payments to suppliers and receipts from customers.
Investing Activities. Cash flows used in investing
activities totaled $181 million and $214 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004,
respectively. The use of cash in the first quarters of 2005 and
2004 reflected capital expenditures related to ongoing
operations.
Financing Activities. Net cash used by financing
activities was $123 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2005, compared to net cash provided by financing
activities of $112 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2004. Cash used by financing activities during
the first quarter of 2005, reflected repayments of borrowings
under credit facilities. During the first quarter of 2004, our
commercial paper borrowings increased because we reduced our
sales of receivables. Both periods also reflect the payments of
dividends.
Dividends. The Board of Directors declared a dividend on
Delphi common stock of $0.03 per share on March 23,
2005, which was paid on May 2, 2005 to holders of record on
April 4, 2005. The dividend declared of $0.07 per
share on December 8, 2004 was paid on January 18, 2005.
Outlook
General. Delphi continues to implement productivity
improvements and related activities designed to reduce overhead,
improve manufacturing processes and streamline our value stream.
In addition, we continue to rationalize our product lines,
reduce excess capacity and operating costs, and respond to
global industry conditions and increased employee related costs
such as U.S. health care and pensions, as well as wages in
non-U.S. locations. We are achieving and anticipate
continued hourly attrition as well as flowback of UAW
represented Delphi employees to GM. We completed consolidation
of one of our AHG sites, Flint West, Michigan during the third
quarter of 2004 and consolidated or ceased production at three
additional AHG sites: Olathe, Kansas; Tuscaloosa, Alabama; and
Anaheim, California in the first quarter of 2005. These future
hires are expected to be phased into our operations over the
next several years. On December 10, 2004, Delphi announced
that effective January 1, 2005, we are moving three
additional manufacturing operations into AHG to accelerate
efforts to bring these sites back to profitability or resolve
issues at these operations through other actions. The additional
operations named to Delphis AHG include: Laurel,
Mississippi; Kettering, Ohio; and Home Avenue/ Vandalia, Ohio.
Also on December 10, 2004, we announced restructuring plans
for 2005 to further reduce our workforce by 8,500 positions in
2005 through GM flowbacks, normal attrition and incentivized
retirements. Of the total reductions, 3,000 are expected to be
U.S. hourly employees and 5,500 are planned to be
non-U.S. employees. As noted below, our achievement of
further hourly attrition through GM flowbacks may be limited if
lower GM North America production volumes continue.
We currently expect GM North Americas 2005 production to
decrease approximately 10% to between 4.5 million and
4.6 million units. As a result of the lower GM North
America production volumes, an increasing proportion of our
U.S. hourly workforce is, and is expected to continue to
be, in a non-active status. Under the terms of our collective
bargaining agreements with our U.S. unions, we are not
generally permitted to permanently lay-off idled workers.
Furthermore, as a result of GMs lower production volumes,
the opportunities for our employees to flowback to GM has been
limited. Consequently, although we reduced our U.S. hourly
workforce by 15% over the 15 month period ending prior to
December 31, 2004, currently approximately 9% of our
U.S. hourly workforce is in a non-active status. This
situation is placing significant financial burdens on Delphi. We
have been and will continue to seek, together with our labor
unions and GM, solutions to our legacy cost structure
challenges. Specifically, we are seeking wage, benefit and
contractual provisions that would permit Delphis
U.S. workforce to be competitive with its U.S. peers.
To the extent that we are not successful in identifying
solutions to these challenges, or that GMs North American
production volumes do not increase, Delphi will continue to
experience significantly reduced financial performance. We
believe that the refinancing plan we completed in June 2005 will
provide us with access to sufficient liquidity to continue to
address our U.S. legacy cost issues during the current low
GM North American production
28
environment. There can be no assurance that over the medium to
long-term, cash generated by operations will continue to be
sufficient to meet our cash obligations without a significant
change in the current economic outlook for the economy as a
whole or GM North America specifically, or a solution to
Delphis legacy cost structure issues.
As stated earlier, during 2004, we were challenged by commodity
cost increases, most notably steel and petroleum-based resin
products. We continue to proactively work with our suppliers and
customers to manage these cost pressures. Despite our efforts,
cost increases, particularly when necessary to ensure the
continued financial viability of a key supplier, had the effect
of reducing our earnings during 2004. Raw material steel supply
has continued to be constrained and commodity cost pressures
have continued to intensify as our supply contracts expire
during 2005. For 2005, we expect to incur $0.4 billion of
higher commodity cost than 2004. This amount includes
$0.1 billion for costs associated with troubled suppliers.
We have been seeking to manage these cost pressures using a
combination of strategies, including working with our suppliers
to mitigate costs, seeking alternative product designs and
material specifications, combining our purchase requirements
with our customers and/or suppliers, changing suppliers and
other means. To the extent that we experience cost increases we
will seek to pass these cost increases on to our customers, but
if we are not successful, our earnings in future periods may be
adversely impacted. To date, due to previously established
contractual terms, our success in passing commodity cost
increases on to our customers has been limited. As contracts
with our customers expire, we will seek to renegotiate terms
which recover the actual commodity costs we are incurring.
In addition to conditions in our market and the economy as a
whole, we depend on GM as a customer. GM accounted for 54% of
our net sales for 2004. Our sales to GM have declined since our
separation from GM; principally due to declining GM production,
the impact of customer driven price reductions and the
elimination of non-profitable businesses, as well as GMs
diversification of its supply base and ongoing changes in our
vehicle content and the product mix supplied to them. We
continue to exit some businesses as part of our portfolio review
process. Reflecting these and other factors, we expect our sales
to GM to decline over time. If we are unable to compete
effectively for new GM business, our revenues may decline
further. Additionally, our revenues may be affected by increases
or decreases in GMs business or market share as well as
cost-reduction initiatives. In 2004, GM North America produced
5.0 million vehicles excluding CAMI Automotive Inc. and New
United Motor Manufacturing, Inc. vehicle production. Our GM
North America content per vehicle for 2004 was $2,546, which was
slightly lower than the previously expected content per vehicle
of $2,571. During 2004, our content per vehicle was reduced due
to exiting of select businesses and the migration of certain
product programs from GM sales to sales to Tier I
customers. We anticipate that our 2005 content per vehicle will
be $2,351. As a result of anticipated lower GM North America
production levels and lower GM content per vehicle, we expect
our 2005 GM revenues to decline approximately 15%. Offsetting
the decline in GM revenues, however, we anticipate our non-GM
revenue to increase approximately 11% such that our consolidated
revenue would decrease approximately 4%.
In December 2004, we entered into an agreement with GM whereby
we committed to 2005 annual price reductions on GMs annual
purchase value with Delphi. In return for this commitment, GM
agreed, among other things, to accelerate their cooperation with
certain sourcing and cost reduction initiatives of mutual
benefit to the two companies and to source certain business to
Delphi. The agreed level of price reduction for 2005 is
generally consistent with that which we have been providing to
GM in recent years.
We face an inherent business risk of exposure to product
liability and warranty claims in the event that our products
fail to perform as expected and such failure of our products
results, or is alleged to result, in bodily injury and/or
property damage. In addition, as we actively pursue additional
technological innovation in both automotive and non-automotive
industries and enhance the value of our intellectual property
portfolio, we incur ongoing costs to enforce and defend our
intellectual property and face an inherent risk of exposure to
the claims of other suppliers and parties that we have allegedly
violated their intellectual property rights. We cannot ensure
that we will not experience any material warranty, product
liability or intellectual property claim losses in the future or
that we will not incur significant costs to defend such claims.
In addition, if any of our products are or are alleged to be
defective, we may be
29
required to participate in a recall involving such products.
Each vehicle manufacturer has its own practices regarding
product recalls and other product liability actions relating to
its suppliers. However, as suppliers become more integrally
involved in the vehicle design process and assume more of the
vehicle assembly functions, vehicle manufacturers are
increasingly looking to their suppliers for contribution when
faced with recalls and product liability claims. A recall claim
brought against us, or a product liability claim brought against
us in excess of our available insurance, may have a material
adverse effect on our business. Vehicle manufacturers are also
increasingly requiring their outside suppliers to guarantee or
warrant their products and bear the costs of repair and
replacement of such products under new vehicle warranties.
Depending on the terms under which we supply products to a
vehicle manufacturer, a vehicle manufacturer may attempt to hold
us responsible for some or all of the repair or replacement
costs of defective products under new vehicle warranties, when
the product supplied did not perform as represented.
Accordingly, although we cannot ensure that the future costs of
warranty claims by our customers will not be material, we
believe our established reserves are adequate to cover potential
warranty settlements. Our warranty reserves are based upon our
best estimates of amounts necessary to settle future and
existing claims. We regularly evaluate the level of these
reserves, and adjust them when appropriate. However, the final
amounts determined to be due related to these matters could
differ materially from our recorded estimates.
Ongoing SEC Investigation
Delphi is the subject of an ongoing investigation by Staff of
the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) and other
federal authorities involving Delphis accounting for and
disclosure of a number of transactions. The transactions include
transactions in which Delphi received rebates or other lump-sum
payments from suppliers, certain off-balance sheet financings of
indirect materials and inventory, and the payment in 2000 of
$237 million in cash, and the subsequent receipt in 2001 of
$85 million in credits, as a result of certain settlements
between Delphi and its former parent company, General Motors. As
a result, the Audit Committee determined that Delphis
previously issued audited financial statements and related
independent auditors reports for 2000 and subsequent
periods should no longer be relied upon. Delphi has filed
amended Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q/A for the quarters
ended March 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004 that include restated
financial statements. Delphi has also filed its Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2004 that
includes financial statements that differ from those included in
Delphis Report on Form 8-K dated October 18, 2004,
and its 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The financial
information presented in this Quarterly Report reflects the
corrections to Delphis previously issued financial
statements resulting from the Audit Committees
investigation.
As previously disclosed in a Form 8-K filing on
June 9, 2005, the results of the investigation also
concluded that Delphi had inaccurately disclosed to credit
ratings agencies, analysts and the Board of Directors the amount
of sales of accounts receivable from 1999 until year-end 2004.
Subsequent to that filing, we also determined that our
disclosure of operating cash flow measured on a non-GAAP basis
as set forth in our earnings releases for the first and second
quarters of 2003 were inaccurate. Specifically, we overstated
this measure of operating cash flow by $30 million in the
first quarter of 2003 and understated the measure by the same
amount in the second quarter of 2003. The Company has enhanced
the disclosure in the Managements Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
(MD&A) Liquidity and Capital
Resources section of this Form 10-K to clarify the extent
to which the Company uses factoring facilities as a source of
liquidity.
Delphi is fully cooperating with the SECs ongoing
investigation and requests for information as well as the
related investigation being conducted by the Department of
Justice. The Company has entered into an agreement with the SEC
to suspend the running of the applicable statute of limitations
until April 6, 2006. Until these investigations are
complete, Delphi is not able to predict the effect, if any, that
these investigations will have on Delphis business and
financial condition.

Shareholder Lawsuits
Several class action lawsuits have been commenced against
Delphi, several of Delphis subsidiaries, certain of its
current and former directors and officers of Delphi, General
Motors Management Corporation (the named fiduciary for
investment purposes and investment manager to Delphis
employee benefit plan), as a result of its announced intention
to restate its originally issued financial statements. These
lawsuits fall into three categories. One group has been brought
under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
amended (ERISA), purportedly on behalf of
participants in certain of the Companys and its
subsidiaries defined contribution employee benefit pension
plans who invested in the Delphi Corporation Common Stock Fund.
Plaintiffs allege that the plans suffered losses due to the
defendants breaches of fiduciary duties under ERISA. To
date, the Company has received service in five such lawsuits and
is aware of an additional eleven that are pending. All pending
cases have been filed in U.S. District Court for the
Eastern District of Michigan.
The second group of purported class action lawsuits variously
allege that the Company and certain of its current and former
directors and officers made materially false and misleading
statements in violation of federal securities laws. To date, the
Company has been served in four such lawsuits and is aware of
nine additional lawsuits. The lawsuits have been filed in the
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan
and the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of
New York.
The third group of lawsuits pertains to two shareholder
derivative cases. To date, certain current and former directors
and officers have been named in two such lawsuits. One is
pending in Oakland County Circuit Court in Pontiac, Michigan,
and a second in the U.S. District Court for the Southern
District of New York. In addition, the Company has received a
demand letter from a shareholder requesting that the Company
consider bringing a derivative action against certain current
and former officers. The derivative lawsuits and the request
demand the Company consider further derivative action premised
on allegations that certain current and former officers made
materially false and misleading statements in violation of
federal securities laws. The Company has appointed a special
committee of the Board of Directors to consider the demand
request.
Due to the preliminary nature of these cases, the Company is not
able to predict with certainty the outcome of this litigation or
its potential exposure related thereto. Although Delphi believes
that any loss that the Company would suffer under such lawsuits
should, after payment of an applicable deductible, be covered by
its director and officer insurance policy, it cannot assure you
that the impact of any loss not covered by insurance or
applicable reserves would not be material.
Inflation
Inflation generally affects Delphi by increasing the cost of
labor, equipment and raw materials. We believe that, because
rates of inflation in countries where we have significant
operations have been moderate during the periods presented,
inflation has not had a significant impact on our results of
operations.
Environmental Matters
We are subject to the requirements of U.S. federal, state,
local and non-U.S. environmental and occupational safety
and health laws and regulations. These include laws regulating
air emissions, water discharge and waste management. We have an
environmental management structure designed to facilitate and
support our compliance with these requirements globally.
Although it is our intent to comply with all such requirements
and regulations, we cannot provide assurance that we are at all
times in compliance. We have made and will continue to make
capital and other expenditures to comply with environmental
requirements, although such expenditures were not material
during the past three years and we do not expect such
expenditures to be material in 2005. Environmental requirements
are complex, change frequently and have tended to become more
stringent over time. Accordingly, we cannot ensure that
environmental requirements will not change or become more
stringent over time or that our eventual environmental cleanup
costs and liabilities will not exceed the amount of our current
reserves.
31
Delphi received notices that it is a potentially responsible
party (PRP) in proceedings at various sites,
including the Tremont City Landfill Site located in Tremont,
Ohio which is alleged to concern ground water contamination. In
September 2002, Delphi and other PRPs entered into a Consent
Order with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
to perform a Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study
concerning a portion of the site, which is expected to be
completed during 2006. Based on findings to date, we believe
that a reasonably possible outcome of the investigative study is
capping and future monitoring of this site, which would
substantially limit future remediation costs and have included
an estimate of our share of the potential costs plus the cost to
complete the investigation in our overall reserve estimate.
Because the scope of the investigation and the extent of the
required remediation are still being determined, it is possible
that the final resolution of this matter may require that we
make material future expenditures for remediation, possibly over
an extended period of time and possibly in excess of our
existing reserves. We will continue to re-assess any potential
remediation costs and, as appropriate, our overall environmental
reserves as the investigation proceeds.
Forward-Looking Statements
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a
safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by us or on our
behalf. Delphi and its representatives may periodically make
written or oral statements that are forward-looking,
including statements included in this report and other filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in reports to
our stockholders. All statements contained or incorporated in
this report which address operating performance, events or
developments that we expect or anticipate may occur in the
future (including statements relating to future sales, earnings
expectations, savings expected as a result of our global product
line and employee initiatives, portfolio restructuring plans,
volume growth, awarded sales contracts and earnings per share
expectations or statements expressing general optimism about
future operating results) are forward-looking statements. These
statements are made on the basis of managements current
views and assumptions with respect to future events. Important
factors, risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results
to differ from those expressed in our forward-looking statements
are set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
In particular, the achievement of projected levels of revenue,
earnings, cash flow and debt levels will depend on our ability
to execute our portfolio and other global product line and
employee plans in a manner which satisfactorily addresses any
resultant antitrust or labor issues and customer concerns, any
contingent liabilities related to divestitures or integration
costs associated with acquisitions, and other matters; the
success of our efforts to diversify our customer base and still
maintain existing GM business; the continued protection and
exploitation of our intellectual property to develop new
products and enter new markets; and our ability to capture
expected benefits of our cost reduction initiatives so as to
maintain flexibility to respond to adverse and cyclical changes
in general economic conditions and in the automotive industry in
each market in which we operate, including customer cost
reduction initiatives, potential increases in warranty and raw
material costs, funding requirements and pension contributions,
healthcare costs, disruptions in the labor, commodities or
transportation markets caused by terrorism, war or labor unrests
or other factors, other changes in the political and regulatory
environments where we do business; and other factors, risks and
uncertainties discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2004 and other filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Delphi does not intend
or assume any obligation to update any of these forward-looking
statements.

ITEM 3. |
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
There have been no material changes to our exposures to market
risk since December 31, 2004.
|
|
ITEM 4. |
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Under the supervision and with the participation of our
management, including our Chief Executive Officer (the
CEO) and Acting Chief Financial Officer (the
CFO), we have evaluated the effectiveness of design
and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as
of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this
evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure
controls and procedures were not effective as
32
of March 31, 2005. The basis for this determination was
that, as reported in our annual report on Form 10-K for the
period ended December 31, 2004, we have identified material
weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting,
which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and
procedures. For a more detailed understanding of these material
weaknesses, the impact of such weaknesses on disclosure controls
and procedures, and remedial actions taken and planned which we
expect will materially affect such controls, see Item 9A.
Controls and Procedures of our annual report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2004, which was filed on
June 30, 2005, and which is incorporated by reference into
this Item 4. During the quarter ended March 31, 2005,
there have been no changes in our internal control over
financial reporting that have materially affected, or that are
reasonably likely to material affect, our internal control over
financial reporting beyond the remedial actions identified in
such annual report.
The certifications of the Companys Chief Executive Officer
and Acting Chief Financial Officer attached as
Exhibits 31(a) and 31(b) to this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q include, in paragraph 4 of such
certifications, information concerning the Companys
disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over
financial reporting. Such certifications should be read in
conjunction with the information contained in this Item 4,
including the information incorporated by reference to our
filing on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2004, for a more complete understanding of the matters covered
by such certifications.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
|
|
ITEM 1. |
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
Except as discussed in Note 9 Commitments and
Contingencies, there have been no other material developments in
legal proceedings involving Delphi or its subsidiaries since
those reported in Delphis Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2004.
We are involved in routine litigation incidental to the conduct
of our business. We do not believe that any of the litigation to
which we are currently a party will have a material adverse
effect on our business or financial condition.
