NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(Dollar amounts in thousands except Note 16, per share and share amounts)

1. Overview

Basis of presentation

Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”, “Cooper-Standard”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) is a leading manufacturer of fluid handling, body sealing, and Anti-Vibration Systems (“AVS”) components, systems, subsystems, and modules. The Company’s products are primarily for use in passenger vehicles and light trucks that are manufactured by global automotive original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and replacement markets. The Company conducts substantially all of its activities through its subsidiaries.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. These financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations of the Company. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation. The operating results for the interim period ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220).” This ASU required companies to present items of net income, items of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and total comprehensive income in one continuous statement or two separate but consecutive statements. The Company adopted this new accounting guidance in the first quarter of 2012.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820).” This ASU amends the requirements for measuring fair value and disclosing information about fair value. This ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this new accounting guidance in the first quarter of 2012.

2. Acquisitions

On March 28, 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of USi, Inc. (“USi”) from Ikyuo Co. Ltd. of Japan, based in Rockford, Tennessee, for cash consideration of $6,500. USi provides an innovative hard coating process for use in automotive and industrial applications, which will allow the Company to expand its technology capabilities. This acquisition was accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, “Business Combinations,” and the results of operations of USi are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. This acquisition does not meet the thresholds for a significant acquisition and therefore no pro forma financial information is presented.

To broaden product lines across Europe, the Company completed an agreement with Fonds de Modernisation des Equipementiers Automobiles (“FMEA”) on May 2, 2011, to establish a joint venture that combined the Company’s French body sealing operations and the operations of Société des Polymères Barre-Thomas (“SPBT”). SPBT is a French supplier of anti-vibration systems and low pressure hoses, as well as body sealing products, which FMEA acquired as a preliminary step to the joint venture transaction. The Company contributed its French body sealing assets and obligations, which had a fair value of approximately $33,000, to the joint venture to acquire 51 percent ownership and FMEA contributed the assets and obligations of SPBT for its 49 percent ownership. SPBT changed its name to Cooper Standard France SAS (“CS France”) subsequent to the transaction.

The Company accounted for the transaction as a sale of a subsidiary while retaining control under ASC 810, “Consolidations” and an acquisition of 51 percent ownership interest of SPBT under ASC 805, “Business Combinations.” Accordingly, the subsidiary was transferred at historical cost and the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed of SPBT were recorded at fair value and are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2012. The Company received net cash of $38,224 as part of the transaction. Also, as part of the acquisition the Company acquired a 50 percent ownership interest in a joint venture in India.

The operating results of CS France are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. This joint venture does not meet the thresholds for a significant acquisition and therefore no pro forma financial information is presented.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

(Unaudited)

(Dollar amounts in thousands except Note 16, per share and share amounts)

In connection with the investment in CS France, the noncontrolling shareholders have the option, which is embedded in the noncontrolling interest, to require the Company to purchase the remaining 49 percent noncontrolling share at a formula price designed to approximate fair value based on operating results of the entity. The put option becomes exercisable at the expiration of the four year period following the May 2, 2011 closing date of the transaction. The combination of a noncontrolling interest and a put option resulted in a redeemable noncontrolling interest.

The noncontrolling interest is redeemable at other than fair value as the put value is determined based on a formula described above. The Company records the noncontrolling interests in CS France at the greater of 1) the initial carrying amount, increased or decreased for the noncontrolling shareholders’ share of net income or loss and its share of other comprehensive income or loss and dividends (“carrying amount”) or 2) the cumulative amount required to accrete the initial carrying amount to the redemption value, which resulted in accretion of $1,527 and $3,053 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. Such accretion amounts are recorded as increases to redeemable noncontrolling interests with offsets to equity. According to authoritative accounting guidance, the redeemable noncontrolling interest is classified outside of permanent equity, in mezzanine equity, on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2012 the estimated redemption value of the put option is $28,910. The redemption amount related to the put option is guaranteed by the Company and secured with the CS France shares held by a subsidiary of the Company.

According to authoritative accounting guidance for redeemable noncontrolling shareholders’ interests, to the extent the noncontrolling shareholders have a contractual right to receive an amount upon exercise of a put option that is other than fair value, and such amount is greater than carrying value, the noncontrolling shareholder has, in substance, received a dividend distribution that is different than other common stockholders. Therefore the redemption amount in excess of fair value should be reflected as a reduction in the income available to the Company’s common stockholders in the computation of earnings per share. At June 30, 2012 there was no difference between redemption value and fair value.

On July 1, 2011, the Company purchased from Nishikawa Rubber Co., Limited (“Nishikawa Rubber”) a 20% interest in Nishikawa Tachaplalert Rubber Company Limited for cash consideration of $10,500. Nishikawa Tachaplalert Rubber Company Limited is a joint venture majority owned by Nishikawa Rubber based in Thailand and supplies body sealing products. The new joint venture entity is Nishikawa Tachaplalert Cooper Limited. This joint venture is owned 20% by Cooper Standard, 77.7% by Nishikawa Rubber and 2.3% owned by Original Tachaplalerts and Marubeni Thailand. This investment is accounted for under the equity method and is included in other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company acquired the automotive sealing business of Sigit S.p.A, (“Sigit”) based in Chivasso, Italy and Poland, for a total cash consideration of $4,066. Consolidating Sigit’s sealing capabilities into the Company’s existing operations will broaden the Company’s supply relationship with global OEM customers. This acquisition was accounted for under ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” and the results of operations of Sigit are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. This acquisition does not meet the thresholds for a significant acquisition and therefore no pro forma financial information is presented.

3. Goodwill and Intangibles

4. Restructuring

The Company implemented several restructuring initiatives in prior years in connection with the closure or consolidation of facilities in North America, Europe, South America, Australia and Asia. The Company also implemented a restructuring initiative that involved the reorganization of the Company’s operating structure. The Company commenced these initiatives prior to December 31, 2010 and continued to execute these initiatives through June 30, 2012. The majority of the costs associated with these initiatives were incurred shortly after the original implementation. However, the Company continues to incur costs on some of the initiatives related principally to the liquidation of the respective facilities. The total expense incurred related to these actions amounted to $2,592 and $365 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively. As of June 30, 2012 there is a liability of $127 associated with these initiatives recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.

In the first quarter of 2011, the Company initiated the closure of a facility in North America and announced the decision to establish a centralized shared services function in Europe. The estimated total costs of these initiatives amount to $9,600 and are expected to be completed in 2013. The Company has recognized $9,208 of costs related to these initiatives. The following table summarizes the activity for these initiatives for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012:

In the second quarter of 2011, the Company initiated the reorganization of the Company’s French body sealing operations in relationship to the joint venture agreement with FMEA. The estimated total cost of this initiative is $43,500 and is expected to be completed in 2012. The Company has recognized $43,500 of costs related to this initiative.

In the third quarter of 2011, the Company initiated the transfer of a sealing business from one of its German facilities to other sealing operations in Eastern Europe. After discussions with several stakeholders it was determined the completion of this initiative would not be achieved. As a result, $1,669 of restructuring expense was reversed during June, 2012.

In the first quarter of 2012, the Company initiated the closure of a facility in North America and a restructuring liability of $4,886 was recorded. During the second quarter of 2012, the Company was able to negotiate a new contract with the union, therefore enabling the facility to remain open. As a result, $4,725 of restructuring expense was reversed during June, 2012.

In the second quarter of 2012, the Company initiated the restructuring of facilities in Europe to change our European footprint to improve our operating performance. The estimated cost of this initiative is $14,000 and is expected to be completed in 2013. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 the Company recorded $5,256 of expense related to this initiative.

8. Income Taxes

Under ASC Topic 270, “Interim Reporting,” the Company is required to determine its effective tax rate each quarter based upon its estimated annual effective tax rate. The Company is also required to record the tax impact of certain unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, in the interim period in which they occur. In addition, jurisdictions with a projected loss for the year where no tax benefit can be recognized are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate.

On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews the likelihood that it will realize the benefit of its deferred tax assets and, therefore, the need for valuation allowances. In determining the requirement for a valuation allowance, the historical and projected financial results of the legal entity or consolidated group recording the net deferred tax asset is considered, along with all other available positive and negative evidence. The factors considered by management in its determination of the probability of the realization of the deferred tax assets include but are not limited to: recent historical financial results, historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences and tax planning strategies. If, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded.

Concluding that a valuation allowance is not required is difficult when there is significant negative evidence which is objective and verifiable, such as cumulative losses in recent years. The Company utilizes rolling twelve quarters of pre-tax book results adjusted for significant permanent book to tax differences as a measure of cumulative results in recent years. In certain foreign jurisdictions, our analysis indicates that we have cumulative three year historical losses on this basis. This is considered significant negative evidence which is difficult to overcome. However, the three year loss position is not solely determinative and, accordingly, management considers all other available positive and negative evidence in its analysis. Based upon this analysis, management concluded that it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets in certain foreign jurisdictions may not be realized in the future. Accordingly, the Company continues to maintain a valuation allowance related to those net deferred tax assets.

In the United States, the Company has been in a cumulative loss position in recent years. However, that position changed to a three year cumulative income position during the second quarter of 2012. This position, along with management’s analysis of all other available evidence, resulted in the conclusion that the net deferred tax asset in the United States is more likely than not to be utilized. As such, the valuation allowance previously recorded against the net deferred tax assets in the United States has been reversed.

During 2012, the Company will record a tax benefit of approximately ($68,100) related to reductions in our U.S. valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets, which is comprised of two items: 1) a net benefit of ($14,700) included in the estimated annual effective tax rate resulting from forecasted net income in the U.S. with no corresponding tax expense due to utilization of valuation allowances, and 2) a benefit of ($53,400) resulting from changes in determinations relating to the potential realization of deferred tax assets and the resulting reversal of a valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets in the United States recorded discretely in the three month period ended June 30, 2012.

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 is (156%) and (62%), respectively. Excluding the impact of releasing the US valuation allowance discretely in the quarter, the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 is 24% and 25%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was 80% and 29%, respectively. The income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 varies from statutory rates due to the benefit resulting from the reversal of the valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets in the US, income in jurisdictions with no tax expense due to valuation allowance release, income taxes on foreign earnings taxed at rates lower than the US statutory rate, the inability to record a tax benefit for pre-tax losses in certain foreign jurisdictions to the extent not offset by other categories of income, tax credits, income tax incentives, withholding taxes, and other permanent items.

There is no corresponding income tax benefit recognized with respect to losses incurred and no corresponding income tax expense recognized with respect to earnings generated in jurisdictions with a valuation allowance. This causes variability in the Company’s effective tax rate. The Company intends to maintain the valuation allowances in those jurisdictions until it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will be realized. If operating results improve or deteriorate on a sustained basis, the Company’s conclusions regarding the need for a valuation allowance could change, resulting in either the reversal or initial recognition of a valuation allowance in the future, which could have a significant impact on income tax expense in the period recognized and subsequent periods.

17. Financial Instruments

Fair values of the Senior Notes approximated $462,375 and $485,438 at December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively, based on quoted market prices, compared to the recorded value of $450,000. This fair value measurement is classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company uses derivative financial instruments, including forward and swap contracts, to manage its exposures to fluctuations in foreign exchange and interest rates. For a fair value hedge, both the effective and ineffective, if significant, portions are recorded in earnings and reflected in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income. For a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the change in the fair value of the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The ineffective portion, if significant, is recorded in other income or expense. When the underlying hedged transaction is realized or the hedged transaction is no longer probable, the gain or loss included in AOCI is recorded in earnings and reflected in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income on the same line as the gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk.

The Company formally documents its hedge relationships, including the identification of the hedging instruments and the hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the cash flow hedges. The Company also formally assesses whether a cash flow hedge is highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of the hedged item. Derivatives are recorded at fair value in other current assets, accrued liabilities and other long-term liabilities.

Cash Flow Hedges

Forward foreign exchange contracts—The Company enters into forward contracts to hedge currency risk of the U.S. Dollar against the Mexican Peso, the Canadian Dollar against the U.S. Dollar and the Euro against the Polish Zloty and the U.S. Dollar. The forward contracts are used to mitigate the potential volatility to earnings and cash flow arising from changes in currency exchange rates that impact the Company’s foreign currency transactions. As of June 30, 2012, the notional amount of these contracts was $20,047. The fair values of these contracts at June 30, 2012 were $266 in the asset position recorded in other current assets and $110 in the liability position recorded in accrued liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The gains or losses on the forward contracts are reported as a component of AOCI and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The amount reclassified from AOCI into cost of products sold was $159 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. These foreign currency derivative contracts consist of hedges of transactions up to December 2012.

Interest rate swaps—The Company has an interest rate swap contract to manage cash flow fluctuations of variable rate debt due to changes in market interest rates. This contract which fixes the interest payment of a certain variable rate debt instrument is accounted for as a cash flow hedge. As of June 30, 2012, the notional amount of this contract was $3,132. At June 30, 2012, the fair value before taxes of the Company’s interest rate swap contract was $111 and is recorded in accrued liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet with the offset reflected in AOCI, net of deferred taxes. The amount reclassified from AOCI into interest expense for this swap was $91 and $53 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively. The amount to be reclassified in the next twelve months is expected to be approximately $78. The maturity date of this swap contract is September 2013.

Undesignated Derivatives

As part of the FMEA joint venture, SPBT had undesignated derivative forward contracts to hedge currency risk of the Euro against the Polish Zloty which are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The forward contracts are used to mitigate the potential volatility of cash flows arising from changes in currency exchange rates that impact the Company’s foreign currency transactions. These foreign currency derivative contracts relate to hedge transactions through April 2014. At June 30, 2012, the fair value of the Company’s undesignated derivative forward contracts was $2,043 and is recorded in accrued liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. The unrealized gain or loss on the forward contracts is reported as a component of other expense. The unrealized gain or (loss) amounted to $(474) and $2,360 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based upon assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:


Level 1:		Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2:		Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3:		Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Estimates of the fair value of foreign currency and interest rate derivative instruments are determined using exchange traded prices and rates. The Company also considers the risk of non-performance in the estimation of fair value, and includes an adjustment for non-performance risk in the measure of fair value of derivative instruments. In certain instances where market data is not available, the Company uses management judgment to develop assumptions that are used to determine fair value. Fair value measurements and the fair value hierarchy level for the Company’s liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2012, are shown below:


	December 31, 2011
Contract	Asset (Liability)			Level 1		Level 2			Level 3
Interest rate swap	$	(156	)	$	—	$	(156	)	$	—
Forward foreign exchange contracts		(4,269	)		—		(4,269	)		—

Total	$	(4,425	)	$	—	$	(4,425	)	$	—


	June 30, 2012
Contract	Asset (Liability)			Level 1		Level 2			Level 3

Forward foreign exchange contracts		(1,887	)		—		(1,887	)		—

Total	$	(1,998	)	$	—	$	(1,998	)	$	—

Items measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis

In addition to items that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis, which are not included in the table above. As these non-recurring fair value measurements are generally determined using unobservable inputs, these fair value measurements are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. For further information on assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, see Note 2. “Acquisitions” and Note 4. “Restructuring.”

18. Accounts Receivable Factoring

As a part of its working capital management, the Company sells certain receivables through third party financial institutions with and without recourse. The amount sold varies each month based on the amount of underlying receivables and cash flow needs of the Company.

19. Subsequent Events

In preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued.

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

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) presents information related to the condensed consolidated results of operations of the Company, including the impact of restructuring costs on the Company’s results, a discussion of the past results and future outlook of each of the Company’s segments, and information concerning both the liquidity and capital resources of the Company. The following discussion and analysis, which should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes included elsewhere in this report, contains certain forward-looking statements relating to anticipated future financial condition and operating results of the Company and its current business plans. In the future, the financial condition and operating results of the Company could differ materially from those discussed herein and its current business plans could be altered in response to market conditions and other factors beyond the Company’s control. Important factors that could cause or contribute to such differences or changes include those discussed elsewhere in this report (see “Forward-Looking Statements”) and in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K (see Item 1A. Risk Factors).

Business Environment and Outlook

Our business is directly affected by the automotive build rates in North America and Europe. It is also becoming increasingly impacted by build rates in Brazil and Asia Pacific. New vehicle demand is driven by macro-economic and other factors, such as interest rates, manufacturer and dealer sales incentives, fuel prices, consumer confidence, employment levels, income growth trends, and government and tax incentives. The expected annualized light vehicle production volumes for 2012 are 14.9 million units in North America and 18.9 million units in Europe, according to IHS Automotive in June 2012.

According to IHS Automotive, actual North American light vehicle production volumes for the three months ended June 30, 2012 were 3.9 million units compared to 3.1 million units for the three months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of approximately 24.6%, and European light vehicle production volumes for the three months ended June 30, 2012 were 4.8 million units compared to 5.3 million units for the three months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of approximately 9.8%. According to IHS Automotive, actual North American light vehicle production volumes for the six months ended June 30, 2012 were 7.9 million units compared to 6.5 million units for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of approximately 20.9%, and European light vehicle production volumes for the six months ended June 30, 2012 were 10.0 million units compared to 10.6 million units for the six months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of approximately 5.9%. According to IHS Automotive, North America and Europe light vehicle production volumes in the third quarter of 2012 are estimated at 3.4 million units and 4.2 million units, respectively, which is an expected 0.3 million unit increase for North America and a 0.4 million unit decrease for Europe, compared to the actual production volumes for the third quarter of 2011.

Competition in the automotive supplier industry is intense and has increased in recent years as OEMs have demonstrated a preference for stronger relationships with fewer suppliers. There are typically three or more significant competitors and numerous smaller competitors for most of the products we produce. Globalization and the importance of servicing customers around the world will continue to shape the success of suppliers going forward.

OEMs have shifted some research and development, design and testing responsibility to suppliers, while at the same time shortening new product cycle times. To remain competitive, suppliers must have state-of-the-art engineering and design capabilities and must be able to continuously improve their engineering, design and manufacturing processes to effectively service the customer. Suppliers are increasingly expected to collaborate on, or assume the product design and development of, key automotive components and to provide innovative solutions to meet evolving technologies aimed at improved emissions and fuel economy.

Pricing pressure has continued as competition for market share has reduced the overall profitability of the industry and resulted in continued pressure on suppliers for price concessions. Consolidations and market share shifts among vehicle manufacturers continues to put additional pressures on the supply chain. These pricing and market pressures, along with the reduced production volumes, will continue to drive our focus on reducing our overall cost structure through lean initiatives, capital redeployment, restructuring and other cost management processes.

In March 2012, an explosion at a supplier’s chemical plant in Germany shut down the facility indefinitely. The facility not only made one-third of the global output of PA-12 resin used in automotive fuel and brake components and other general industry products, but also made one-half of the world’s CDT which is a key ingredient in the production of PA-12 resin. We do use PA-12 resin in our products and we have been working with customers and suppliers on developing and approving alternative materials.

While the situation remains complex, we have had a global team proactively working on implementing solutions. This effort has been successful to date, and we have continued to supply all customers with approved product. We fully expect to continue servicing our customers’ needs until the damaged resin facility becomes fully operational and material supply capacity returns to pre-disaster levels, which is currently expected in the fourth quarter of 2012. However, given the interconnected nature of the automotive supply chain, production interruptions may occur which could materially adversely impact our ability to continue meeting customers’ supply demands as well as our overall business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business has also been impacted by our acquisition of USi and the joint venture agreement with FMEA. Our sales have increased as a result of these two acquisitions, but we continue to incur additional costs as we integrate and restructure these businesses. In evaluating these businesses, management considers EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as key indicators of operating performance. The following table shows combined gross margin for the acquisitions and reconciles EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the acquisitions to their net loss, which is the most directly comparable financial measure in accordance with GAAP (dollars in millions):

Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2011

Sales. Sales were $734.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $760.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $26 million, or 3.4%. Sales were negatively impacted by unfavorable foreign exchange of $58.6 million and decreased volumes in the International segment. These unfavorable items were partially offset by increased volumes in North America and one additional month of sales from our joint venture with FMEA, which was completed in May, 2011.

Cost of Products Sold. Cost of products sold is primarily comprised of material, labor, manufacturing overhead, depreciation and amortization and other direct operating expenses. Cost of products sold was $620.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $636.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $16.7 million or 2.6%. Raw materials comprise the largest component of our cost of products sold and represented 51% and 52% of total cost of products sold for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively. The period was favorably impacted by our lean savings and foreign exchange partially offset by higher material costs, increases in other fixed and variable costs as a result of increases in North American production volumes and one additional month of costs for our joint venture with FMEA, which was completed in May, 2011.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was $114.4 million compared to $123.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $9.3 million, or 7.5%. As a percentage of sales, gross profit was 16.3% and 15.6% of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively. The decrease was driven primarily by higher material costs, increases in other expenses associated with launch and expansion activities and unfavorable foreign exchange. In addition, the margins associated with our 2011 acquisitions are lagging behind our base business. These items were partially offset by the favorable impact of increased volumes in North America and our lean savings.

Selling, Administration and Engineering. Selling, administration and engineering expense for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was $69 million or 9.4% of sales compared to $65.6 million or 8.6% of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Selling, administration and engineering expense for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was impacted by increased staffing and compensation expenses as we increase our research and development and engineering resources to support our growth around the world. In addition, the three months ended June 30, 2012 were impacted by one additional month of expenses for our joint venture with FMEA, which was completed in May, 2011.

Restructuring. Restructuring charges decreased $37.5 million to ($0.5) million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $37 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This decrease is primarily related to the reorganization of our French body sealing operations pursuant to the joint venture agreement with FMEA implemented in 2011. In addition, it was determined that a European initiative previously recorded would not be achieved and therefore was reversed during the second quarter of 2012. Also, a previously announced plan to close a North American facility was reversed in the second quarter of 2012 as the Company was able to negotiate a new contract with the union enabling the facility to remain open. These items were partially offset by the expense associated with our European initiatives.

Interest Expense, Net. Net interest expense of $10.6 million and $10.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively resulted primarily from interest and debt issue amortization recorded on the Senior Notes.

Other Income (Expense). Other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was $4.5 million, which consisted primarily of foreign currency losses of $3.7 million, unrealized losses related to forward contracts of $0.5 million, and loss on sale of receivables of $0.3 million. Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $0.7 million, which consisted primarily of foreign currency gains of $1.1 million, partially offset by loss on sale of receivables of $0.3 million.

Provision (benefit) for Income Tax Expense. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of ($46.2) million on earnings before income taxes of $29.6 million. This compares to an income tax provision of $6.5 million on earnings before income taxes of $8.2 million for the same period of 2011. Income tax benefit for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 differs from statutory rates due to the benefit resulting from the reversal of the valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets in the US, income in jurisdictions with no tax expense due to valuation allowance release, income taxes on foreign earnings taxed at rates lower than the US statutory rate, the inability to record a tax benefit for pre-tax losses in certain foreign jurisdictions to the extent not offset by other categories of income, tax credits, income tax incentives, withholding taxes, and other permanent items.

During 2012, the Company will record a tax benefit of approximately ($68.1) million related to reductions in our U.S. valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets, which is comprised of two items: 1) a net benefit of ($14.7) million included in the estimated annual effective tax rate resulting from forecasted net income in the U.S. with no corresponding tax expense due to utilization of valuation allowances, and 2) a benefit of ($53.4) million resulting from changes in determinations relating to the potential realization of deferred tax assets and the resulting reversal of a valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets in the United States recorded discretely in the three month period ended June 30, 2012.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2011

Sales. Sales increased to $1,500 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $1,449.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $50.5 million, or 3.5%. Sales were favorably impacted by an increase in volumes in North America as well as the USi acquisition and the joint venture with FMEA which were completed March, 2011 and May, 2011, respectively. These favorable items were partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange of $76.1 million and decreased volumes in the International segment.

Cost of Products Sold. Cost of products sold is primarily comprised of material, labor, manufacturing overhead, depreciation and amortization and other direct operating expenses. Cost of products sold was $1,263.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $1,204.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $58.9 million or 4.9%. Raw materials comprise the largest component of our cost of products sold and represented 51% and 52% of total cost of products sold for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively. The period was impacted by higher material costs, increases in other fixed and variable costs as a result of increases in North American production volumes, and higher labor costs due to the additional hires to support the increase in North American volumes. In addition, cost of products sold for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was impacted by the USi acquisition and the joint venture with FMEA, which were completed March, 2011 and May, 2011, respectively. These items were partially offset by our lean savings and favorable foreign exchange.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $236.1 million compared to $244.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. As a percentage of sales, gross profit was 16.9% and 15.7% of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively. The decrease was driven primarily by higher material costs, increases in other expenses associated with launch and expansion activities and unfavorable foreign exchange. In addition, the margins associated with our 2011 acquisitions are lagging behind our base business. These items were partially offset by the favorable impact of increased volumes in North America and our lean savings.

Selling, Administration and Engineering. Selling, administration and engineering expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $141 million or 9.4% of sales compared to $126.5 million or 8.7% of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Selling, administration and engineering expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was impacted by increased staffing and compensation expenses as we increase our research and development and engineering resources to support our growth around the world. In addition, the six months ended June 30, 2012 was impacted by the USi acquisition and the joint venture with FMEA, which were completed March, 2011 and May, 2011, respectively.

Restructuring. Restructuring charges decreased $36 million to $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $41.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. This decrease is primarily related to the reorganization of our French body sealing operations in connection with the joint venture agreement with FMEA in 2011. In addition, it was determined that a European

initiative previously recorded would not be achieved and therefore was reversed during the second quarter of 2012. These items were partially offset by the expense associated with our European initiatives.

Interest Expense, Net. Net interest expense of $20.6 million and $22 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively resulted primarily from interest and debt issue amortization recorded on the Senior Notes.

Other Income (Expense). Other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $1.6 million, which consisted primarily of $4.3 million of foreign currency losses and $0.5 million of loss on sale of receivables, partially offset by $2.4 million of gains related to forward contracts and $0.9 million of other miscellaneous income. Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $15.1 million, which consisted primarily of a gain on the partial sale of ownership in our NISCO joint venture of $11.4 million and foreign currency gains of $4.3 million, partially offset by $0.6 million of loss on sale of receivables.

Provision (benefit) for Income Tax Expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of ($38.2) million on earnings before income taxes of $61.8 million. This compares to an income tax provision of $18.8 million on earnings before income taxes of $65.8 million for the same period of 2011. Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 differs from statutory rates due to the benefit resulting from the reversal of the valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets in the US, income in jurisdictions with no tax expense due to valuation allowance release, income taxes on foreign earnings taxed at rates lower than the US statutory rate, the inability to record a tax benefit for pre-tax losses in certain foreign jurisdictions to the extent not offset by other categories of income, tax credits, income tax incentives, withholding taxes, and other permanent items.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2011

North America. Sales for the three months ended June 30, 2012 increased $21 million, or 5.7%, primarily due to an increase in sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange of $9.2 million. Segment profit for the three months ended June 30, 2012 decreased by $2.7 million, primarily due to higher raw material costs and increased staffing, partially offset by the favorable impact of our lean savings and increased sales volume.

International. Sales for the three months ended June 30, 2012 decreased $46.9 million, or 11.9%, primarily due to unfavorable foreign exchange of $49.4 million and decreased volumes, partially offset by one additional month of sales from our joint venture with FMEA, which was completed in May, 2011. Segment loss improved by $24 million, primarily due to restructuring costs that were recorded in 2011 for the joint venture agreement with FMEA and the favorable impact of our lean savings, partially offset by higher raw material costs, unfavorable foreign exchange and decreased volumes.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2011

North America. Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2012 increased $50.3 million, or 6.9%, primarily due to an increase in sales volume, offset by unfavorable foreign exchange of $13 million. Segment profit for the three months ended June 30, 2012 decreased by $18.9 million, primarily due to higher raw material costs, increased staffing and a gain of $11.4 million recognized in 2011 for the partial sale of ownership in our NISCO joint venture, partially offset by the favorable impact of our lean savings and increased sales volume.

International. Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2012 remained relatively flat compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011 as the sales from our joint venture with FMEA were primarily offset by unfavorable foreign exchange and a decrease in production volumes. Segment loss improved by $14.9 million, primarily due to restructuring costs that were recorded in 2011 for the joint venture agreement with FMEA and the favorable impact of our lean savings, partially offset by higher raw material costs, unfavorable foreign exchange and decreased volumes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Short and Long-Term Liquidity Considerations and Risks

We intend to fund our ongoing capital and working capital requirements through a combination of cash flows from operations, cash on hand and borrowings under our Senior ABL Facility. We anticipate that funds generated by operations, cash on hand and funds available under our Senior ABL Facility will be sufficient to meet working capital requirements for the next 12 months. For additional information, see Note 6. “Debt” to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Based on our current and anticipated levels of operations and the condition in our markets and industry, we believe that our cash on hand, cash flow from operations and availability under our Senior ABL Facility will enable us to meet our working capital, capital expenditures, debt service and other funding requirements for the foreseeable future. However, our ability to fund our working capital needs, debt payments and other obligations, and to comply with the financial covenants, including borrowing base limitations, under our Senior ABL Facility, depends on our future operating performance and cash flow and many factors outside of our control, including the costs of raw materials, the state of the overall automotive industry and financial and economic conditions and other factors. Any future acquisitions, joint ventures or other similar transactions will likely require additional capital and there can be no assurance that any such capital will be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all.

Cash Flows

Operating Activities. Net cash used in operations was $34.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, which included $157.8 million of cash used that related to changes in operating assets and liabilities. The use of cash related to operating assets and liabilities was primarily a result of increased accounts receivables of $101 million due to increased demand for our products and timing of collections. In addition, pension contributions of $25.7 million were made during the six months ended June 30, 2012. Net cash provided by operations was $26.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, which included $76.6 million of changes in operating assets and liabilities.

Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities was $51.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, which consisted of $58.5 million of capital spending and final payment of $1.1 million related to the acquisition of Sigit S.p.A., offset by proceeds of $8.3 million for the sale of fixed assets. Net cash provided by investing activities was $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, which consisted primarily of $30.9 million of cash acquired as part of the joint venture with FMEA, net of the acquisition of USi, and proceeds of $16 million from the partial sale of a joint venture, offset by $45.5 million of capital expenditures. We anticipate that we will spend approximately $110 million to $120 million on capital expenditures in 2012.

Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities totaled $24.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, which consisted primarily of repurchase of preferred stock of $4.9 million, repurchase of common stock of $13.6 million, payments on long-term debt of $2.6 million and payment of cash dividends of $3.5 million. Net cash used in financing activities totaled $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, which consisted primarily of a decrease in short-term debt and payments on long-term debt of $2.5 million and payment of cash dividends of $3.6 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In evaluating our business, management considers EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as key indicators of our operating performance. Our management also uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:

•

because similar measures are utilized in the calculation of the financial covenants and ratios contained in our financing arrangements;

•

in developing our internal budgets and forecasts;

•

as a significant factor in evaluating our management for compensation purposes;

•

in evaluating potential acquisitions;

•

in comparing our current operating results with corresponding historical periods and with the operational performance of other companies in our industry; and

•

in presentations to the members of our board of directors to enable our board of directors to have the same measurement basis of operating performance as is used by management in their assessments of performance and in forecasting and budgeting for our company.

In addition, we believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures are widely used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in evaluating our performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus provision for income tax expense (benefit), interest expense, net of interest income, depreciation and amortization or EBITDA, as adjusted for items that management does not consider to be reflective of our core operating performance. These adjustments include restructuring costs, impairment charges, non-cash fair value adjustments, acquisition related costs, professional fees and expenses associated with our reorganization, non-cash stock based compensation and non-cash gains and losses from certain foreign currency transactions and translation.

We calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA by adjusting net income (loss) to eliminate the impact of a number of items we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. You are encouraged to evaluate each adjustment and the reasons we consider it appropriate for supplemental analysis. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not financial measurements recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), and when analyzing our operating performance, investors should use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in addition to, and not as alternatives for, net income (loss), operating income, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and they should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results of operations as reported under U.S. GAAP. These limitations include:

•

they do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditure or contractual commitments;

•

they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

•

they do not reflect interest expense or cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments under our Senior Notes and Senior ABL Facility;

•

they do not reflect certain tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;

•

although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated or amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash requirements for such replacements; and

•

other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate these measures differently and, as the number of differences in the way companies calculate these measures increases, the degree of their usefulness as a comparative measure correspondingly decreases.

In addition, in evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, it should be noted that in the future we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in the below presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of U.S. federal securities laws, and we intend that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbor created thereby. We make forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and may make such statements in future filings with the SEC. We may also make forward-looking statements in our press releases or other public or stockholder communications. These forward-looking statements include statements concerning our plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, future revenue or performance, capital expenditures, financing needs, plans or intentions relating to acquisitions, business trends, and other information that is not historical information and, in particular, appear under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Risk Factors,” and “Business Environment and Outlook.” When used in this report, the words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,” “forecasts,” or future or conditional verbs, such as “will,” “should,” “could,” or “may,” and variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, management’s examination of historical operating trends and data are based upon our current expectations and various assumptions. Our expectations, beliefs, and projections are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, no assurances can be made that these expectations, beliefs, and projections will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results or achievements to be materially different from the future results or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

The risks, uncertainties, and other important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this report include, among others: the Company’s dependence on the automotive industry; further restructuring of the Company’s customers; availability and cost of raw materials; pricing pressures and volume requirements of the Company’s customers; the ability to meet significant increase in customer demand; increased costs negatively impacting the Company’s profitability; competition in the automotive industry; sovereign and other risks related to conducting operations outside the United States; foreign currency fluctuations; the Company’s ability to achieve benefits from its joint venture operations not operated for the Company’s sole benefit; the Company’s exposure to the uncertainty of political disruptions and increased violence in Mexico; the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to achieve expected cost reduction savings; the Company’s dependence on certain major customers and platforms; the Company’s exposure to product liability and warranty claims; labor conditions; the Company’s ability to attract and retain key personnel; the Company’s ability to meet customers’ needs for new and improved products in a timely manner; the Company’s ability to select and integrate attractive business acquisitions; the Company’s legal rights to its intellectual property portfolio; environmental and other regulations; the outcome of legal proceedings the Company is or may become party to; volatility in the Company’s expected annual effective tax rate; impact of the Company’s capital structure on its financial condition and ability to obtain financing in the future; the Company’s ability to generate cash to meet its debt and other cash obligations; the Company’s pension plans; any impairment of a significant amount of the Company’s goodwill or other intangible asset; potential conflicts of interest between the Company’s owners and the Company; limitations on flexibility in operating the Company’s business contained in its debt agreements; the Company’s exposure to natural disasters; and other risks listed in our filings with the SEC. See Item 1A. Risk Factors, in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties. There may be other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements.

All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf apply only as of the date of this report and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included in this report. We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no material changes to the quantitative and qualitative information about the Company’s market risk from those previously disclosed in the Company’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures.

The Company has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. However, based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer along with the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Report.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings.

We are periodically involved in claims, litigation and various legal matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. In addition, we conduct and monitor environmental investigations and remedial actions at certain locations. Each of these matters is subject to various uncertainties, and some of these matters may be resolved unfavorably for us. A reserve estimate is established for each matter and updated as additional information becomes available. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

In addition to other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Form 10-K”) which could materially impact our business, financial condition or future results. Risks disclosed in the Form 10-K are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may materially adversely impact our business, financial condition or operating results.
