Results of Operations and Financial Condition |
The Timken Company (the “Company”) has implemented a change to its management structure and
now operates under two major business groups, the Bearings and Power Transmission Group, which

Steel Group. Beginning with the first quarter of 2008, the Company will report its financial
results utilizing these four segments.
Attached is the 2007 (quarterly and annual) and 2006 (annual) financial information, by
