o you know the old joke about the optimist who falls off a 100-story skyscraper and shouts to the people on the 99th floor, "OK so far!". As the saying goes, hope spring eternal. At the moment, nobody in the branch can say whether they will have a soft or hard landing in the automobile crisis. A number of automotive suppliers may have no chance at all of surviving a fall from such a great height. And it is impossible to tell whether others will follow suit and go into free fall or whether help is around the corner in the form of some kind of bailout. Since the middle of the year, state cash for clunker programmes seem to have been helping faltering car markets in Europe, Japan and the USA recover from the slump somewhat, but all the same, sales levels are a long way from what they were. What will things be like on these markets once the car-scrapping schemes run out? It is not much consolation that we will soon find out, and does not make planning for 2010 any easier. Plus it is unclear whether the growth potential of the markets in the BRIC states (Brazil, Russia, India and China) can cushion falls, despite the fact that China's superlative growth seems to confound even the greatest of expectations every year anew. In this connection it has to be remembered that these markets are unstable, as evidenced by the setback in Russia. On the other hand, they can also function seemingly autonomously, almost decoupled from the global economic situation, as the positive example of Brazil shows.

It is thus unknown whether the traditional giant suppliers from Europe, Japan and the USA can equally benefit from the gains in the BRIC countries, or whether new, i.e. unknown, market participants will be turning possible home advantage to account. After all, it is no secret that both India and China have strong domestic OEMs and suppliers. And both these countries have governments that blithely do all they can to protect their home-grown auto industries. It is thus not without reason that players from emerging countries are putting in a first appearance in the global Top

Innovation as a rescue net 100 ranking – see China's Weichai Power – or returning to it again, as demonstrated by Alfa (Nemak) of Mexico. On top of all this, there is an urgent need for high investments in research and development due to the rise of new drive technologies and alternative power sources for the hybrid and electric cars of the future. Experience shows that suppliers often foot a large part of the respective bills, and the probability that this will change any time soon is highly unlikely. The only consolation is that this is a factor that will be affecting suppliers all over the world, without exception. The ultimate question is thus not which supplier is innovative enough, but which one will be taking the relevant innovations to market, and how quickly.

TOP 100 AUTOMOTIVE SUPPLIERS

Free fall or controlled collapse? The GLOBAL RANKING TOP 100 AUTOMOTIVE SUPPLIERS for the 2008/2009 business year is again marked by shakeups and turbulence. This year two German companies – Bosch and Continental – lead the list, and suppliers from China and Mexico have joined it. Meanwhile, US parts makers have fallen behind.

T

his year the fatal consequences of the severe downturn unleashed by the financial crisis are reflected in only a few of the balance sheets of the world's top 100 automotive suppliers. It will probably not be until next year's ranking that the irresistible pull of gravity will become noticeable among the branch's leaders, throwing the old order into disarray. Those unable to pull the safety cord and break their fall in good time will find themselves in for a hard landing. At the present, things do not seem that dramatic at all. There has always been movement up and down the global ranking, and winners and losers in the branch. And the fallout of the crisis is still only noticeable here and there in the annual figures presented in recently closed balance sheets, making things seem not all that drastic. But this is just the beginning. In a number of cases, burgeoning sales in the first months of 2008 have made good the losses of the final quarter, and last year's strength of the dollar against the yen and euro glosses things over in annual reports posting a decline in home currency terms. Therefore it is

worthwhile to take a second look at figures reported in domestic currencies and compare them with those of previous years. As in the past, such comparative data are provided in our table in the interests of transparency. How dramatic things are becoming for companies can be seen in the large numbers of US suppliers that are stumbling badly or have already fallen, forcing them to seek Chapter 11 creditor protection. In Japan, where books are closed at the end of March, meaning that the latest balance sheets show the effects of three more months of crisis, languishing markets in the USA and Japan have led to massive sales declines – even after conversion of figures to the US dollar, which puts things in a more positive light. Naturally the latest Japanese balance sheets are affected by the later start of the US and Japanese state programmes set up to encourage new car purchases, but even then a closer look at our 2008/2009 Top 100 list immediately reveals that for the first time since we launched our ranking, even Bosch is posting lower year-back automotive sa-

les in euro terms. And the same applies to five other companies in the top ten of this year's listing.

Strong German companies One clear exception blurs this view of things a little. As expected, Continental was able to notch up a large increase in sales (at almost USUS$ 13.8 billion the largest in this year's ranking), thanks to its integration of Siemens-VDO, propelling it upward from ninth to second place, right behind the kingpin Bosch. Indeed, it now has almost US$ 35 billion to its name. But even then it is not all sweetness and light for Conti – the company is hamstrung by its disputes with its new majority shareholder, the Schaeffler Group. Schaeffler holds a 49.9 percent direct stake in its new acquisition but for the time being has had to cede control of most of its remaining share parcel to the banks. The disputes have since escalated further, leading to immediate replacement of Conti's new chief executive Dr. Karl-Thomas Neumann by former Schaeffler manager and automotive expert Dr. Elmar Degenhart. In the meantime, Schaeffler has been able to gain some respite from its creditor banks but at the price of a number of concessions. Over the next few years, the company, which has been privately managed to date, will most likely gain what is officially termed a "capital market-oriented structure". Whatever the case, Continental and Schaeffler are jointly weighed down by around US$ 30 billion in debt due to their respective acquisitions. All the same, two German suppliers lead the field in this year's ranking, and other German contenders such as ThyssenKrupp, ZF, BASF and Schaeffler, not to mention Mahle, Benteler, Behr and Brose, have managed to ascend the list,

Where will the journey end? For many automotive suppliers, the path will surely be a downhill one. Some US companies have already gone to the ground, but as figures for 2008/2009 show, a number of European and Asian suppliers are still benefiting from the weakness of the dollar.

with Brose even leapfrogging a solid ten places to claim No. 50. In other words, the Germans still seem to rank among the winners at present, and in this respect the strong euro also plays a role. Nevertheless, German companies will be closing their books at the end of the year, by which time it will become apparent to what extent their exports have been suffering and how much they have actually been impacted by the deformations caused by the scrapping rebates on sales markets both home and abroad.

You win some, you lose some ... Looking at the top ten in this year's ranking, Faurecia is the second French supplier to join the upper end of the list after Michelin. La Grande Nation is represented in this year's ranking as a whole with no less than six companies. Delphi, which is still under Chapter 11 creditor protection, is no longer among the top ten. The US company has had to put up with a significant year-on-year drop, and for 2008 posts a US$ 4.5 billion sales decline to only US$ 17.6 billion due to selling or pulling out of various business areas. As a result, it has slipped back to eleventh place. The topmost 20 in this year's ranking, however, have gained a newcomer in the form of Japanese cable manufacturer Yazaki, which has moved up four

German chemical companies such as Lanxess and Evonik have also benefited from a strong increase in automotive sales, pushing them up 25 and 15 places respectively in this year's ranking. The Mexican conglomerate Alfa is a newcomer to the Top 100, along with the Japanese spring manufacturer NHK Spring, as well as Wabco, a BelgianAmerican supplier of safety and control systems for commercial vehicles. Alfa, for example, bolstered its automotive sales in the course of 2007 via its subsidiary Nemak, a producer of aluminium engine and transmission components that bought Norsk Hydro's aluminium casting activities as well as those of Teksid Aluminum during that year. These two latter companies played a brief role in our Top 100 ranking earlier on and are now putting in an appearance again under the Alfa mantle. Cable manufacturer Leoni has achieved the critical mass required for joining this year's Top 100 by buying Valeo's cable operations. Thanks to the weak dollar, it has gone straight to 67th place, a respectable notch in the ranking's lower half.

Crisis hurting Japanese suppliers Denso, which holds third place in this year's Top 100 ranking, has had to put up with a fall in sales of practically US$ 3.8 billion, placing it almost US$ 9.6 billion behind the list's frontrunner. To catch up, the company, which is closely associated with Toyota, would theoretically have to buy a firm about the size of Toyota Boshoku or Visteon and boasting sales of over US$ 9 billion. Only then would it be able to close the gap. Other Japanese companies have been feeling the pinch of the crisis quite acutely. Apart from Denso, Aisin Seiki, Hitachi and Panasonic have been shedding sales volumes and consequently a number of places in the ranking, along with suppliers like Calsonic Kansei, NSG, Tachi-S, Stanley Electric, NSK, TS Tech and Futaba. Pioneer Corporation has even tumbled down by ten places, with airbag supplier Takata, glassmaker Asahi Glass and ball bearing manufacturer NTN following suit. Sumitomo Electric, on the other hand, has moved up one notch, but with a US$ 1.3 billion year-on-year sales shortfall on its books has only managed this feat because Siemens has dropped away completely, as previously mentioned. And since Dana, an Ameri-

can supplier that follows Sumitomo on the list, has also been battered, the approx. US$ 800 million difference in sales volume between these two contenders has shrunk. AsahiTec, one of last year's Japanese shooting stars in the ranking, has taken a bad fall, stumbling from 78th place to the last in the list more or less due to Metaldyne, its badly buffeted US subsidiary acquired back in 2007. In the meantime it has sold its US interests to private equity companies and no longer shows Metaldyne on its books as a consolidated subsidiary.

Largest increases among big players Last year's ranking, which applied for the 2007/2008 business year, reflected almost US$ 58 billion growth in the aggregate sales of the world's largest 100 automotive suppliers, which together generated US$ 710 billion in revenue. The trick has been repeated this year again, but this time round the increase is less pronounced, with aggregate sales growing only by US$ 4.6 billion to top out at US$ 714 billion. A trend that was beginning to emerge in last year's annual statements – namely the disproportional advance of the really big players relative to the rest – has become more evident in the financial reviews for the 2008/2009 business year. This time round the Top 10 see a US$ 6.8 billion increase in their aggregate automotive sales to almost US$ 258 billion relative to last year's showing. Admittedly, last year's growth (US$ 15 billion) was larger, but in comparison to the US$ 4.6 billion rise in revenue generated by all the Top 100 companies, the uppermost ten have done disproportionately better, and this increases their share of the ranking's ag-

gregate sales from 35.4 to 36.1 percent. The 20 largest suppliers show a total sales increase of slightly under US$ 392 billion for the 2008/2009 business year, thus accounting this year again for about 55 percent of the aggregate sales of the complete Top 100. The 50 largest suppliers, which as in the 2007/2008 period are able to claim 80 percent of aggregate sales, have seen an increase of 'only' US$ 3.6 billion, meaning they have slipped back by US$ 3 billion. The companies on the 21st to the 40th places have experienced the largest year-back declines, while the cohorts on the 41st to the 50th places have more or less stayed at the level they had last year. This also applies to the ones on the 51st to 100th places, which taken together generated aggregate sales of US$ 141 billion, i.e. US$ 1 billion more than last year.

Swiss firms no longer in Top 100 Harman International just barely missed this year's ranking with sales of US$ 2.004 billion for the 2008/2009 business year, thus placing it at 101st place and as a consequence outside the listing, Here it is followed by the Swiss supplier Georg Fischer with a 2008 turnover of US$ 1.998 billion. For the first time there are no longer any Swiss firms in the Top 100 at all, since Switzerland's Rieter, which was still listed last year, has fallen short this time round, tumbling with sales of just US$ 1.869 billion to 104th place and thus further down than for example Georg Fischer. The US wheel manufacturer Hayes Lemmerz lies between the two with automotive sales now only amounting to US$ 1.904 billion. Companies such as Baekert, Acument, Keiper-Recaro, Unipres and Kostal come next, followed by Kautex, Akebono Brake, Linamar and Edscha.

Over US$ 2 billion sales volume a must Twenty-five German suppliers are represented in the Top 100 for the 2008/2009 business year – the same figure as last year. Naturally Siemens has fallen away completely but Leoni has taken its place. In determining the places in this year's ranking, Peguform turned out to be a special case. In 2008, the Bötzingen, Germany-based company generated the equivalent of over US$ 2.1 billion in sales. However, in October last year it was integrated into the Polytec Group, which went on to overextend itself and

TOP 100 AUTOMOTIVE SUPPLIERS

thus divested it again this summer. However, now that Peguform is independent again, we decided to consider it and its total own sales in 2008 for inclusion in the ranking, and thus not forego a company with over US$ 2 billion automotive sales during the period under review. It is interesting to note that contrary to expectations, the sales level for inclusion in the Top 100 rose this year again. In 2007/2008, sales of US$ 1.962 billion were quite sufficient, but now US$ 2.014 billion is necessary in revenue terms. All together there are 38 suppliers from Europe, 32 Asian companies and 27 based in North America. Three companies in European-American ownership also play a role, namely Autoliv, IAC and Wabco. There is only a very slight shift in the regional composition of the list: 2008 saw 31 Asian suppliers among the Top 100, along with two (IAC and Autoliv) in European-American ownership, 28 from North America and 39 from Europe. Next year the balance sheets of the companies that make the Top 100 will reflect the full impact of the crisis and there will be a great deal more movement around the list. By that time the managements of quite a number of these companies may well be fondly recalling the sales figures of the present. And only then will we know whether the aggregate sales of the Top 100 have grown again. Andreas Gottwald

Explanations and contact details: As always, our 'Global Ranking Top 100 Automotive Suppliers' defines "automotive sales" as revenue achieved by companies that mainly supply parts, components, systems and modules for vehicles. For this reason factory equippers, machine builders and service providers are not included. Automotive sales are defined not only as OE business figures but also as those generated on the aftersales and consumer markets. As in the past, they cover 'off-highway' business in addition to parts supplied for passenger vehicles, buses and trucks. This year we have had to estimate figures in cases in a few cases in which the respective financial data was not available. OEM subsidiaries such as Magneti Marelli are included in the ranking if they also supply to other OEMs in a significant manner and publish their figures accordingly. Currency conversion continues to be based on the Federal Reserve Bank's annual foreign exchange conversion rates. The conversion table is provided on page 4 of this publication. The Top 100 ranking has been compiled according to the latest information available to our editorial offices and on the basis of annual reports as currently available and editorial research.

SZENARIO

For they know what they do The automotive supply industry is facing a historic test. The crisis has hit the industry hard and the global auto industry is experiencing rapid structural changes. Fierce competition and pressure on margins are picking up and making the future uncertain. Only as of 2010 do market analysts expect growth – and then only moderate. However, only those companies that are now setting the course for future growth will reap the benefits of economic recovery.

I

n many parts of the world, the global economic crisis has led to an unprecedented slump in the automotive industry. Many car sales markets have declined by up to 30 percent compared to the previous year. The situation is even worse for commercial vehicles, where the market has more than halved. This situation has also hit automotive suppliers extremely hard, and hundreds of them worldwide are struggling for survival in the crisis. In Germany alone, almost 70 firms have had to go to the bankruptcy judge since the end of 2008. And the next mega-challenge has already arrived: the profound technological sea change involved in the move toward more environmentally friendly vehicles. For automotive suppliers, business in this situation has become tougher than ever before.

ponent suppliers again rose slightly compared to 2007 (unlike the industry as a whole) to about USD 715 billion, this approx. 1%-point increase was significantly lower than in previous years. The crisis is eating even more into suppliers' profitability than into their sales: the EBIT margin of both European and North American suppliers in the top 100 (in sales-weighted terms) halved in 2008 compared to the previous year from about six percent (four percent) to three per cent (two per cent), respectively. Here, too, Japanese firms were hit hardest. Their average EBIT margin collapsed from almost seven per cent to only about one per cent. In 2009, the full effect of the crisis has probably pushed the average profitability of the global automotive supply industry into negative territory (about minus two per cent) for the first time.

The effects of the crisis Even though the crisis did not hit with full force until the final quarter of 2008, it had already had a marked impact on suppliers' figures for last year. Although total sales of the world's top 100 com-

cause stabilization is taking place at a level that most companies would have regarded as unthinkable (i.e. unthinkably low) just a year ago. No quick global recovery is in sight – further piling on the challenges for suppliers: ■ Lower sales levels: There are no indications of a rapid return to the precrisis level of sales in most markets. Rather, the recovery is expected to be gradual. However, this will be preceded by another slump in 2010, particularly in many triad markets. The sales-promotion programs launched in many countries in 2009 mean that many purchases have been rolled forward. Suppliers must therefore expect manufacturers' medium-term demand for parts to be well down on previous levels. ■ Shift in the product segments: The crisis has not only caused a dramatic fall in global sales – the distribution of sales across the various vehicle segments has also changed. Although the crisis was not originally responsible for triggering the gradual shift in retail demand away from top-of-the-range li-

Where are we going? The crisis has not only dragged down global vehicle sales volumes – it has redistributed these to specific vehicle segments.

a small number of manufacturers from their home regions, they will have to start looking elsewhere to tap into future growth potential. ■ Technological change: The automotive industry faces a profound transformation with the development of environmentally friendly vehicles. The field of alternative drives in particular continues to pose immense technological challenges, and entirely new solutions still need to be found to replace existing products and technologies. As a result, many established suppliers, particularly in the powertrain field, will lose a lot of traditional business in the foreseeable future. This is further intensifying the innovative pressure on suppliers if they want to remain competitive in the future. ________________________________ Authors: Marcus Berret, Partner, and Felix Mogge, Project Manager, Roland Partner Strategy Consultants, Munich

SZENARIO

Interview with Marcus Berret, Partner, Roland Berger Strategy Consultants

Caught in a vicious circle Decreasing volumes and following a lack of liquidity – many automotive suppliers are fighting to survive. Branch expert Marcus Berret: "I expect that more than 100 suppliers will go out of business in Germany alone. Most suppliers will experience permanent restructuring in the next two to three years." cautious. No one wants to bite off more than they can chew. On the other hand, the OEMs are wary of individual product segments experiencing too much consolidation. This could otherwise compromise their negotiating position in the medium term. What do you feel has been the biggest surprise of the crisis?

I was surprised at how poor communication about planned volume reductions within the value chain was at the beginning of crisis. For instance, many tier2 and tier3 suppliers maintained full production even in November and December because they simply didn't know any better. This resulted in the unnecessary end of the one or the other supplier. Your Outlook for 2010?

Volumes will stabilize at a low level. However, I still expect some very tough years for suppliers. I feel that never before have they had to overcome so many challenges. Most suppliers will experience permanent restructuring in the next two to three years. Overall, I expect that worldwide EBIT margins will hardly exceed three per cent in the next two to three years. tr

“Many suppliers simply don't have the funds necessary to ramp up production.” How do you rate the suppliers' current situation?

We are still experiencing production levels that most industry experts would have considered inconceivably low a year ago. After huge losses in the first six months and following rigorous cost-cutting actions, various suppliers are approaching break-even again. However, many are fighting to survive – and a lack of liquidity means they can't afford proper restructuring. The are indeed caught in a vicious circle. Will many more companies go broke?

Unfortunately yes. Although volumes have been rising again slightly since June, many suppliers simply don't have the funds necessary to ramp up production – just like during the crisis in the early 1990s. This will lead to further bankruptcies. I expect that more than 100 suppliers will go out of business in Germany alone, i.e. more than one in 10 German suppliers. Can we expect a global wave of consolidation?

We've been expecting this for many months now, but this hasn't really happened yet. I believe there are two reasons for this. On the one hand, strategic buyers remain extremely

Roadmap for getting out of the crisis: What automotive suppliers need to do now Each phase of the crisis – downturn, current stabilization and gradual growth starting in 2010 – places various demands on suppliers' crises management. ■ Phase 1 – Cut variable costs to secure short-term liquidity (f.e. using short-time work programs, shedding temporary jobs, temporarily closing down production and renegotiating purchase prices with their upstream suppliers) and on-balancesheet actions to generate liquidity. ■ Phase 2 – Cut structural costs (approx. 20 per cent): downsizing, closing or consolidating unprofitable locations; reducing staff and material overheads in all areas – indirect manufacturing, administration and even research & development. ■ Phase 3 – Adjust the business model: leaning up the product and technology portfolio and abandoning unprofitable products to reduce the complexity and costs of production. Furthermore, the customer portfolio must become more diversified more quickly, and contacts with customers in the Asian region need to be built up and developed. So the crisis in the automotive industry is far from over. And when it is, the industry will look very different from what it did even a year ago. And (only) those suppliers who make the right decisions and take decisive action now will be among the winners then.

The Bosch Group is a leading global supplier of technology and services. In the areas of automotive and industrial technology, consumer goods, and building technology, some 280,000 associates generated sales of 45.1 billion euros in fiscal 2008.

If sales and service partners are included, then Bosch is represented in roughly 150 countries. With all its products and services, Bosch enhances the quality of life by providing solutions which are both innovative and beneficial. The company was set up in Stuttgart in 1886 by Robert Bosch (1861-1942) as “Workshop for Precision Mechanics and Electrical Engineering”. The special ownership structure of Robert Bosch GmbH guarantees the entrepreneurial freedom of the Bosch Group, making it possible for the company to plan over the long term and to undertake significant up-front investments in the safeguarding of its future. Ninety-two percent of the share capital of Robert Bosch GmbH is held by Robert Bosch Stiftung GmbH, a charitable foundation. The majority of voting rights are held by Robert Bosch Industrietreuhand KG, an industrial trust. The entrepreneurial ownership functions are carried out by the trust. The remaining shares are held by the Bosch family and by Robert Bosch GmbH. Various automotive product fields All car manufacturers worldwide

This worldwide development, manufacturing, and sales network is the foundation for further growth. Each year, Bosch spends more than 3.5 billion euros, or eight percent of its sales revenue, for research and development, and applies for over 3,000 patents worldwide. For 2008: 3,889 Mio Euro (8.6 %), within Automotive 3,250 Mio Euro (12 %), for 2007: 3,583 Mio Euro (7.7%), within Automotive 2,899 Mio Euro Revenue split: Sales by region 2008: Europe 66%, Americas 17%, Asia Pacific (including other countries) 17% Sales by business sector 2008: Automotive Technology 59%, Consumer Goods and Building Technology 26% (including other activities), Industrial Technology 15%. The Bosch Group’s profit before tax in 2008 stands at 942 million euros, as compared with 3.8 billion euros in the previous year. At 1.5 billion euros, the operating result is down on the prior-year figure of 3.2 billion euros. The main reasons for this decline in result were the worsened profit situation in Automotive Technology, the burden of the – at times – sharp rise in the price of raw materials, and a negative financial result. The Automotive Technology business sector suffered the most significant decline, generating an operating result of 321 million euros, compared with 1.7 billion euros the previous year. The return on sales from operations was thus roughly only 1.2 %. This decrease was attributable to under-utilization of production capacity following the significant cuts in call orders by automotive customers, as well as to the steep rise in raw materials prices. Strategy: The major acquisitions impacting sales in 2008 include: In Automotive Technology, the takeover of Holger Christiansen A/S, Esbjerg, Denmark, a remanufacturer of starters and alternators. Bosch also acquired the brake business of Morse Automotive Corporation in Chicago, IL (USA). SB LiMotive – the Samsung SDI and Bosch joint venture – will supply lithium-ion battery cells to BMW. The German automaker will install the battery cells in its first electric car, which is currently being developed as part of the “Megacity Vehicle” project. Like the global economy as a whole, the Bosch Group, too, was affected by the global downturn in business activity in the course of 2008. As a result, Bosch fell far short of its sales and earnings targets. The Automotive Technology business sector was especially affected, while the impact of the downturn on Consumer Goods and Building Technology was not as severe. In the Industrial Technology business sector, Bosch was still able to boost sales. Despite the significantly worsened economic environment, however, Bosch was able to extend its global market position in all business sectors. This was due both to its innovative products and to an entire series of acquisitions. The unfavorable development of business is likely to last well into 2009. Bosch sees chances of a gradual recovery for the global economy in the second half of the year.

The six divisions are differently geared towards the various trends. Strategic focuses are development and manufacturing of components, modules, and complex systems. In addition, Continental offers engineering services – tailored to the needs of their customers. Entrepreneurial action and strict cost discipline are embedded at all levels of the organization – right down to the smallest unit. One of Conti’s key responsibilities is climate protection, to which the company makes a substantial contribution with its technologies and products. Conti’s management wants its business units to hold leading positions in their respective markets, or to be able to achieve such a position with a manageable level of business risk in the foreseeable future. To limit dependence on the cyclical automotive manufacturing sector, Conti aims to generate around 40% of its sales outside this industry in the future.

Revenue split: In fiscal 2008, the operating environment of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries was challenging. Although the prices of raw materials and crude oil declined in the latter part of the fiscal year, prices were generally high for the full fiscal year. In this setting, business conditions in Japan slowed, with consumer spending weakening and growth in exports sluggish. Overseas, the U.S. economy showed signs of a recession, such as declines in housing starts and consumer spending. In addition, business conditions worsened in Europe, with declines in consumer spending and exports. In Asia, business conditions began to decline in China and other markets. Consolidated net sales decreased by ¥155.8 billion, or 5% year-over-year, to ¥3,234.4 billion, due in part to the exchange impact of the stronger Japanese yen and a decline in unit sales. Sales decreased in both business segments (tires and diversified products). In geographic segment, sales decreased in Japan, the Americas, and Europe. Including inter-segment transactions, in the tire segment, sales in fiscal 2008 decreased by 5% from the previous year, to ¥2,629.2 billion, while operating income decreased by 52%, to ¥92.8 billion. The Companies worked to maximize its sales momentum by introducing appealing new products worldwide, while at the same time improving and expanding certain production sites around the world in support of the respective product domains, particularly those that have been identified as strategic products for the Companies. The fourth quarter, in particular, was marked by a decline in global automotive production and by sluggish demand in the replacement market, which had a major effect on sales. Composition of Sales by Geographic Segment (Net of inter-segment transactions) 2008: Japan = 26.70%; The Americas = 43.40%; Europe = 14.60%; Other = 15.30%. With a significant impact from such factors as sharply higher prices for raw materials, operating income totaled 131.5 billion JPY, a 47% decrease, ordinary income was 74.4 billion JPY, a 66% decrease, and net income came to 10.4 billion JPY, a 92% decrease. Strategy: For fiscal 2009, the Company’s operating environment is extremely difficult to predict due to the rapid deterioration in global business conditions. In this setting, each country is implementing economic countermeasures and financial policies, but some time will likely be required before these measures take effect and economies begin to recover. This situation, together with the rapid changes in the worldwide structure of demand and competition, will likely have a significant effect on the Companies’ sales. In Japan, the Company’s expects a year-over-year decline in unit sales of tires. In diversified products, sales of such products as those related to civil engineering and construction materials & equipment are expected to decline year-over-year. In the Americas, unit sales of tires in North America are expected to decline year-over-year. In Europe, unit sales of tires are expected to decline year-over-year. Goal: To establish the status of being the undisputed world No.1 tire and rubber company both in name and reality.

Power solutions is the principal supplier of batteries to many of the largest merchants in the battery aftermarket, including Advance Auto Parts, AutoZone, Robert Bosch GmbH, Costco, Interstate Battery System of America, Pep Boys, Sears, Roebuck & Co and Wal-Mart stores. Automotive batteries are sold throughout the world under private label and under the Company’s brand names (Optima, Varta, LTH and Heliar) to automotive replacement battery retailers and distributors and to automobile manufacturers as original equipment. The power solutions business competes with a number of major domestic and international manufacturers and distributors of lead-acid batteries, as well as a large number of smaller, regional competitors. The power solutions business primarily competes in the battery market with Exide Technologies, GS Yuasa Corporation, East Penn Manufacturing Company and Fiamm Group.

Magna was awarded three major assembly contracts to build new vehicles at the Magna Steyr assembly facility in Graz, Austria. Magna won the contract to assemble Peugeot’s new 308 RC Z coupe model. It is the first complete vehicle program for PSA Peugeot Citroën, with assembly scheduled to start later this year. They were also awarded the Boxster and Cayman sports cars from Porsche AG, which are scheduled to launch in 2012.

The acquisition expands Magna´s capabilities in the growing Russian market, positioning Magna to grow with both the Russian and international OEMs in the region. Futhemore Magna acquired BluWav Systems LLC, a leading developer and supplier of electric and energy-management systems for hybrid electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid vehicles and battery electric vehicles.

Biggest customers are: VW Group, PSA Peugeot Citroën, Renault/Nissan, BMW, Ford Group, GM Group, Daimler, customers: Chrysler, Toyota, Hyundai/Kia R&D data: Gross R&D expenditure (in Mio Euro): FY08: 613.0 , FY07: 613.1, FY06: 630.5; Gross research and development costs 2008 were stable compared with 2007 in value terms, coming in at €613.0 million, but as a percentage of sales they rose to 5.1% from 4.8%. Excluding amounts billable to customers, R&D costs totaled €269.9 million, corresponding to 2.2% of sales, versus €268.6 million and 2.1% of sales in 2007. These figures reflect the R&D efforts required to ensure that the Group can continually renew its programs. Revenue split: The Group continued to diversify its customer portfolio in 2008, with General Motors and BMW increasing in weighting and the Volkswagen Group becoming Faurecia’s biggest customer. The sharp drop in European automobile production in the second half of the year led to falls in sales of 11.5% and 6.2% with the Renault-Nissan Group and PSA Peugeot Citröen Group respectively. Business with the Volkswagen Group inched back by just 1.5% thanks to Faurecia’s sales to Audi remaining virtually on a par with 2007. In North America, the impact of the 36.4% slide in sales to Chrysler in 2008 (with a 57.6% fall in the fourth quarter) was offset by increased sales to General Motors, BMW and Ford. 2008 sales by customer: PSA Peugeot Citroën 22.9%, VW Group 23.9%, Renault/Nissan 11.5%, BMW 10.3%, Ford Group 10.0%, GM Group 7.7%, Daimler 4.8%, Other 3.0%, Chrysler 2.9%, Toyota 2.0%, Hyundai/Kia 1.0%. 2008 sales by activity: 27.5% with Intrument panel, door, acoustic package; 7.9% for front end; 22.9% with other modules as Exhaust, 41.7% with interior modules as seats. Operating income for 2008 amounted to €91.2 million and represented 0.8% of consolidated sales, compared with €121.1 million and 1.0% respectively for 2007. Strategy: Challenge 2009 involves: Cost savings of around €600 million, including approximately €230 million in direct production costs, €120 million in procurement savings, and some €300 million in fixed-cost reductions. Implementing these cost-saving measures will lead to restructuring expenses of around €150 million in 2009; A 15% lowering of the breakeven point; A €100 million fall in investment spend and a €200 million improvement in working capital in order to limit cash burn in 2009. These measures will primarily be required due to the estimated €200 million in cash outflows for restructuring costs during the year; A positive cash target for 2010; Maintaining Research and Innovation budgets. Faurecia’s Board of Directors has agreed in principle to carry out a €450 million capital increase with pre-emptive subscription rights for existing shareholders in order to strengthen the Group’s equity and proportionally decrease its financial expense. This capital increase will complement the Group’s successful efforts to secure its funding in November 2008 with a new €1,420 million syndicated credit line.

Strategy: Significant declines in general economic conditions and production levels of automobiles, an unfavorable change in the mix of TRW´s product sales and continuing inflationary and pricing pressures have forced TRW to reevaluate all aspects of its business and determine the best approach to mitigate these negative conditions. TRW continually evaluates its competitive position in the automotive supply industry and whether actions are required to maintain or improve their standing. Such actions may include plant rationalization or global capacity optimization across their businesses. TRW has become a leader in the global automotive parts industry by capitalizing on the strength of its products, technological capabilities and systems integration skills. Over the last decade, TRW has experienced sales growth in many of its product lines due to an increasing focus by both governments and consumers on safety and fuel efficiency. TRW believes that such focus on safety and fuel economy is continuing as evidenced by ongoing regulatory activities and given uncertainty over fluctuating fuel costs, and will enable the company to experience growth in the most recent generation of advanced safety and fuel efficient products. Such advanced products include vehicle stability control systems, curtain and side air bags, occupant sensing systems, electrically assisted power steering systems, electric park brake and tire pressure monitoring systems. With research and development, manufacturing and sales facilities located around the world, TRW Automotive is positioned to meet the changing demands of both established and emerging markets. The company has the strengths to respond to pent-up demand in Europe, and to meet the needs of growth markets such as China, India, Brazil and Russia. In fact, more than 70 percent of TRW’s sales come from outside of the United States.

Revenue split: Net sales by market: 81% OEM, 19% After-market Strategy: Valeo applies its strategy in line with a policy of sustainable development. Valeo is planning to reduce its headcount by around 5,000 employees worldwide in 2009, including around 1,600 in France and 1,800 in the rest of Europe. Valeo is preparing for a recession that is proving to be severe worldwide. In 2009, Valeo expects automotive production to fall by around 20%. Valeo is well equipped to adapt its structure and costs to this new situation without jeopardizing the operational excellence on which its reputation is founded. Each of the company’s activities has a roadmap and will take appropriate action. Valeo will pay special attention to the Group’s cash and to the elimination of all non-essential expenditure. Valeo is also closely monitoring the financial state of its suppliers, many of whom will be facing serious difficulties in the months to come. Valeo’s acquisitions/disposals strategy is designed to reinforce the Group’s three Domains and increase its organic growth potential. Strategic operations and partnerships: China has one of the fastest growing automotive markets in the world. The world’s second-largest market behind the United States, it should move into first place by 2020. The Indian market, with an average annual increase in new car sales of 20% over the last 10 years, also offers good prospects for the automotive sector. Present in India since the late 1990s, Valeo has already introduced several product lines there, including clutches, friction materials and lighting and security systems. Russia has been open to foreign investors for several years, and is another of these new markets. Russia is expecting positive growth, and could become Europe’s leading automotive market by 2012, overtaking Germany. Valeo pursues a policy of setting up production sites as close as possible to its customers (Renault, PSA Peugeot Citroën, Volkswagen, Toyota, etc.), helping it to expand its business on these growth markets. In Russia, the strategic partnership signed between French automaker Renault and AvtoVAZ, the leading automaker on the Russian market, offers Valeo a number of opportunities. In order to provide the best service to all customers, the Group is planning for all of its activities to be present in this country, and Valeo Service, the Group’s aftermarket activity, which has been operating in Russia since 2001, has seen strong business expansion there over the last six years. May 31, 2008, Valeo sold its truck engine cooling division to EQT, an investment fund based in Northern Europe. This division employs 900 people across three production sites (two in Sweden and one in the United States), and achieved sales of 176 million euros in 2007. Further information about Valeo’s strategy, see: http://www.valeo.com/en/home/the-group/strategy.html Purchasing organisation: The role of Valeo’s purchasing team is to reduce supply costs through increased sourcing in competititve-cost countries, implement rigorous selection processes for new suppliers, apply total quality and innovation approach to suppliers and sub-contractors and establish close partnerships whith the most innovative and best performing suppliers, in order to turn this strategy into a genuine competitive advantage. http://www.valeo.com/en/home/the-group/strategy/purchasing-strategy.html Further important Latest company press releases, see: http://www.valeo.com/en/home/press.html URL’s /links: Other important links: http://www.valeo.com/en/publications.html Sources: Annual Report, Reference document 2008, 2008 Activity Report, Company Information, Company Website Annotations: ** Further business fields: Security Systems: FY08: 647 Mio Euro - 953 Mio US$, FY07: 726 Mio Euro - 995Mio US$; Compressors: FY08: 389 Mio Euro - 573 Mio US$, FY07: 414 Mio Euro - 567 Mio US$, Engine Management: FY08: 293 Mio Euro - 431 Mio US$, FY07: 339 Mio Euro - 465 Mio US$, Other and eliminations: FY08: 123 Mio Euro - 181 Mio US$, FY07: 116 Mio Euro - 159 Mio US$. *** Asia sales include other regions than mentioned above: 15% **** Employees total include employees in Africa, 1,087. ***** Restated

Sales to customers other than Ford include sales to Mazda, of which Ford holds a 13.78% equity interest. R&D data: Total research and development expenditures were approximately $434 million in 2008, decreasing from $510 million in 2007 and $594 million in 2006. The decreases are attributable to divestitures, shifting engineering headcount from high-cost to low-cost countries as well as right-sizing efforts.

Net sales for Climate were $3.4 billion in 2007, compared with $3.1 billion in 2006, representing an increase of $247 million or 8%. Sales increased in Asia by $237 million, principally attributable to new business and higher production volumes, primarily Hyundai/Kia. Climate sales increased in Europe by $68 million principally related to higher Ford vehicle production volumes. Sales were lower in North America by $121 million due to lower Ford North America vehicle production volume and unfavorable product mix partially offset by new business. Net customer price reductions were more than offset by favorable currency of $153 million. Net sales for Electronics were $3.6 billion in 2007, compared with $3.5 billion in 2006, representing an increase of $132 million or 4%. Sales in 2007 included higher sales in Europe of $178 million due to increased Ford vehicle production volumes, partially offset by lower Ford North American vehicle production volumes and adverse product mix related to past customer sourcing actions of $191 million. Net customer price reductions were more than offset by favorable currency of $198 million. Net sales for Interiors were $3.2 billion in 2007, compared with $3.1 billion in 2006, representing an increase of $124 million or 4%. Increased sales in Asia of $298 million, primarily due to an increase in directed source content for Hyundai/Kia production, were partially offset by lower sales in North America of $297 million, primarily due to lower Ford and Nissan vehicle production volumes as well as the impact of lost volume related to the closure of the Chicago, Illinois facility. Net customer price reductions were more than offset by customer commercial settlements and favorable currency of $165 million. Strategy: The Company’s immediate priority is to address the its capital structure and liquidity requirements. However, the Company can provide no assurance that it will be able to implement any such actions in a manner or on terms that would be satisfactory to the Company. Despite these challenges, the Company aims to grow leading positions in its key climate, interiors and electronics product groups and to improve overall margins, long-term operating profitability and cash flows by leveraging the Company’s extensive experience, innovative technology and geographic strengths. To achieve these goals and respond to industry factors and trends, the Company is working to reduce costs and preserve liquidity, improve its operations and grow the business.

The Group is now focusing development efforts on new research themes that will yield next-generation core products and businesses for its future growth. The Sumitomo Electric Group employs more than 150,000 people worldwide, with operations spanning 30 countries. Sumitomo Electric will continue making active efforts as a major company leading the global market. Established: April 1897, Incorporated: December 1920. History, see: http://global-sei.com/sei_info/history/index.html. Manufacture and sales of electric wires and cables, and other products. The group includes approximately 300 subsidiaries and affiliates in more than 30 countries around the world, mainly in Asia, North America and Europe. Automotive sales decreased ¥282.2 billion, or 23.5% year-on-year, to ¥917.1 billion, due primarily to a decline in demand for wiring harnesses and anti-vibration rubber products from last autumn. Another factor is the transfer of the automotive brake business to Aishin Seiki Co., Ltd. in the previous second half. Operating income fell by ¥68.4 billion to ¥6.1 billion.

Expenses related to research and development activities are charged to income as incurred and totaled ¥72,988 million and ¥72,271 million for the years ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. R&D centres in Itami, Komaki, Osaka, Suzuka, Yokkaichi, Yokohama (all Japan); Germany, USA; http://global-sei.com/RandD/index.html Revenue split: In the Automotive segment, sales for the reporting period fell 23.5% year-on-year, to ¥917.1 billion reflecting a decrease in demand for wiring harnesses and anti-vibration rubber products and an effect of the transfer of automotive brake business last year, and operating income decreased 91.8% to ¥6.1 billion due to decrease of demand and one-time cost increase resulting from reorganization and relocation of wiring harnesses factories in Europe and the United States. Strategy: Due to the sudden deceleration of the global economy from September 2008 onward, automobile production in Japan, the U.S. and Europe drastically plunged on a volume basis. For Sumitomo Electric, orders declined rapidly in the latter half of fiscal 2009. Global inventory adjustments are expected to bottom out in the first half of fiscal 2010.

AUTOMOBIL-PRODUKTION · October 2009

TOP 100 AUTOMOTIVE SU PPLI ERS Revenue split:

Lighting: Revenues totalled €1,524 million in 2008, down 5.6% from the previous year. The overall reduction in sales volumes attributable to the global financial crisis and spiralling oil prices, impacted performance in the US market for the entire second half of 2008 and in the European and Asian markets for the last four months. Volumes for taillamps, however, went against the trend, rising in absolute terms. There was intense innovation activity throughout the year focused on Full LED headlamp technology, the bihalogen projection module, LED taillamps, flexboard technologies for LED applications, as well as light curtain and light guide technologies. Significant new orders were received during the year for headlamps and taillamps for the Alfa MiTo and for Mercedes, BMW and Opel models, as well as headlamps for Volkswagen-Audi and Land Rover. Engine Control: Revenues for 2008 remained fairly stable at €933 million, with strong sales of Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) injectors and manifolds to OEMs countering a slowdown in revenues in the U.S. market. Product rollouts during the year included Freechoice systems for the Fiat 500, Maserati GranTurismo and for FIASA in Brazil, manifolds for new Fiat Bravo engines and for the Lancia Delta, and the natural gas system for the Grande Punto. Innovation concentrated on development of new products and technologies for hybrid vehicles, biofuels, and lowconsumption gasoline and diesel engines. Major orders received during the year included: systems for the FIRE 1.0-litre and 1.4-litre Evolution engines for the new Palio and new Uno in Brazil; a throttle body for General Motors in Europe, China, the USA and Brazil; and GDI injectors for Volkswagen. Suspension Systems: Revenues for the year totalled €893 million, substantially in line with 2007 on a comparable scope of operations. Though major gains were made in Poland, driven by products for the Fiat 500 and Panda, and in Brazil for Fiat, they were offset by performance in Italy which was impacted by the halt in production at the G.B. Vico plant and the transfer of the Mechanical Component Assembly business to Fiat Group Automobiles in April 2008, in addition to the overall slump in the Italian market in the second half of the year. New products launched during the year included suspension systems for the Lancia Delta, Alfa MiTo and Fiat 500 Abarth, as well as a complete suspension system for Ford. Shock Absorbers: The business line’s 2008 revenues totalled €315 million, a 5.4% increase driven by higher sales in Brazil and in Poland for the Ducato and Fiat 500. There was a slowdown in the latter part of the year, especially for the U.S. market. New orders were received from all major customers, including Fiat Group Automobiles, Mercedes, PSA and General Motors. Electronic Systems: Revenues for 2008 totalled €570 million, up 2.5% from the previous year. Instrument panels increased by 10%, driven by sales to external customers. Telematics lost ground due to changes in the product mix for infotainment systems, but there was an increase in sales of the Blue&Me system to Fiat. Sales of products for vehicle interiors dropped. Development activities concentrated on hardware and software design for the new generation of navigation systems for PSA, and on the radio/navigator for Fiat, PSA and SAIC. Instrument panel products were developed for new Volkswagen-Audi, Renault and Citroën models, while the business line also worked on a telematic-compatible highresolution display for PSA and Maserati. The vehicle interiors products line developed new body computers for Fiat, the body computer for the new Palio in Brazil, climate control systems for new Fiat models, electronics for Stop & Start systems, door modules for Renault, and a comfort module for Volkswagen in Brazil. Orders were received for an instrument panel for PSA for use in the European and Chinese markets, and for instrument panel and vehicle interior products for the new Palio. For telematics products, orders were booked for the Fiat Bravo and Croma radio/navigator, for the new generation of telematics products for PSA, and for the Telematic Box in Brazil. Exhaust Systems: Revenues totalled €635 million in 2008, a 3.6% increase over the previous year. Positive contributions came from sales in Poland, driven by increased demand for the Fiat 500, and from sales to external customers in Brazil, Spain and Argentina. By contrast, in Italy and China revenues contracted from the previous year’s levels. New production included complete exhaust systems for the Alfa MiTo, Lancia Musa, Lancia Delta, Fiat 500, and for Ford, as well as hot-end systems for the Euro 5-compliant turbocharged 1.4-litre gasoline engine. Major new orders included a complete exhaust system for General Motors for production in several countries and an exhaust manifold for Volkswagen in Brazil. Motorsport: During 2008, Magneti Marelli continued to be active at the major sporting championships, supplying electronic control systems, fuel systems, electro-mechanical components, and telemetry and data acquisition systems to such major Formula 1 teams as Ferrari (2008 Constructors’ World Champion), Toyota, Renault, Toro Rosso and Red Bull. Magneti Marelli also continued its involvement in the Rally and Moto GP championships; for the latter, the Sector provided fuel injection and electronic control systems to Yamaha (2008 World Champion), Ducati, Suzuki and Kawasaki. Aftermarket: Revenues for 2008 were €242 million, substantially in line with the previous year on a comparable scope of operations, when the business line, which was consolidated from May 2007, posted revenues of €167 million. Increased volumes for battery products and extension of the product range to include shock absorbers, belts and bumpers compensated for the drop in sales in more established product areas such as lighting, rotary machinery and instrumentation. Rising sales in the Mercosur and German markets helped counterbalance the decline in other European countries. Strategy: May, 2009: Magneti Marelli has inaugurated a new production plant in China, inside WEDA (Wuhu Economic Development Area). The new industrial area will be dedicated to production activities in the Lighting sector – with production lines for headlamps and rear lamps– and in the Powertrain sector – with the production of engine control components (intake manifolds and throttle bodies). February 27th, 2009: Agreement between Goodyear Dunlop and Magneti Marelli in the service area: thanks to Magneti Marelli’s contribution, Goodyear Dunlop Tires Italia will be offering its SuperService network (over 300 highly specialised tyre dealers) the chance to expand its light mechanics business with highly professional support. On 27 January 2009, Magneti Marelli and SAIC Motor Corporation Ltd., through its subsidiary Shanghai Automobile Gear Works (SAGW), signed a joint venture agreement in China for production of hydraulic components for the Freechoice Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) made by Magneti Marelli. Under the agreement, Magneti Marelli and SAGW will take equal interests. The joint venture will be located near Shanghai and is due to be operational in the second half of 2009. At full capacity, the new entity will be capable of producing components for about 350,000 gearboxes a year.

Schaeffler worldwide, see: http://www.schaeffler-gruppe.de/content.schaefflergroup.de/en/weltweit/regions/regions_1.jsp Schaeffler (INA): For decades, the Schaeffler Group’s INA brand has stood for creative application solutions, great engineering and manufacturing expertise and a strong customer focus. Thinking outside the box, that is, taking new paths to develop ideas and think beyond barriers, is just as important now as it was when the company was first established. Dr. Georg Schaeffler, who founded the company with his brother Wilhelm in 1946, demonstrated what it means to think outside the box as early as 1949. At this point, his development of the needle roller and cage assembly – a pioneering innovation – helped the needle roller bearing achieve an industrial breakthrough. Georg Schaeffler’s inventive spirit and his will to succeed have become a permanent part of corporate culture in more than 35 plants worldwide. All over the world, the Schaeffler Group’s INA brand stands for the development and manufacture of rolling bearings, plain bearings and linear guides for machine building and engine components for the automotive industry. INA works closely with its customers as an engineering partner, starting with the initial stages of system development. New customized solutions are developed daily, which means that 1,000 new products are launched every year. The Schaeffler Group has invested heavily in research and development, most recently in new R&D centers in Germany, Asia and North America. INA brand products are used in the Schaeffler Group’s automotive division for applications in engines, transmissions and chassis and in its industrial division. INA has unmatched expertise in forming precision products. This know-how allows efficient, customized solutions at an excellent price/performance ratio. In the industrial division, four business units for production machinery, power transmission and rail technology, heavy industry, and consumer products drive the Schaeffler Group’s INA and FAG brands joint business.

Subaru, Ford Group, incl.Mazda, GM Group, Izusu, Honda, Suzuki, Others customers: R&D data: Hitachi’s R&D expenditures amounted to ¥412.5 billion in fiscal 2006, ¥428.1 billion in fiscal 2007 and ¥416.5 billion in fiscal 2008. The ratio of R&D expenditures to total revenues was approximately 4% over these three years. Revenue split: Automotive sales were mainly generated through Power & Industrial Systems and High Functional Materials & Components Strategy: Hitachi has been striving to adress enviromental needs, which they recognize as an important issue. In FY 2006, Hitachi started delivering inverters for GM Motor Corp. Hybid cars, and in FY 2007 they won orders for lithium-ion batteries. In the batterie field, Hitachi Vehicle Energy, Ltd., is striving to speed up development of lithium-ion batteries. In terms of technologies to make vehicles safer, they have jointly developed a stereo camera for automobiles with Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd., and this porduct is already on the market. They will continue seeking to capture synergies across the Hitachi Group to meet diversifing needs in the automotive equipment systems business. Hitachi’s revenues declined in all segments over fiscal 2008, but especially in the Power & Industrial Systems segment, the Digital Media & Consumer Products segment and the High Functional Materials & Components segment, in tandem with rapidly falling demand for automobiles, semiconductors, industrial equipment and other products. Power & Industrial Systems: Sales of automotive equipment have been severely affected by the worldwide collapse in demand for automobiles. Sales of construction machinery have also been severely affected by the worldwide decline in demand for residential and private-sector investment. These trends may not improve or may even worsen in fiscal 2009, with adverse impact on sales of Hitachi’s automotive equipment and construction machinery. High Functional Materials & Components: Sales, particularly of semiconductor-related materials and automotive-related components, have been depressed due to reduced production volume by manufacturers in the semiconductor and automotive industries, and such production volume may be lower yet in fiscal 2009, with adverse impact on sales of Hitachi’s products.

These sales include pass-through components that are acquired and incorporated into ArvinMeritor’s systems or modules at the customer’s request. Strategy: In fiscal year 2008, the company made a strategic decision to separate its Light Vehicle Systems (LVS) and Commercial Vehicle Systems (CVS) businesses. Upon completion of the separation, the commercial vehicle business – consisting of truck, trailer, specialty products and the commercial vehicle aftermarket – will remain with ArvinMeritor. They initially determined that the separation would be accomplished through a spin-off of the LVS business via a tax-free distribution to ArvinMeritor stockholders. Although the spin-off continues to be an option, the weakened financial markets, as well as further slow down in the automotive market, and other factors have prompted them to investigate other alternatives for the separation, including a potential sale of all thier portions of the business. On November 18, 2008 ArvinMeritor announced that a sale of LVS will be the primary path and that the wheels business of LVS will be retained by the company. Upon closing a sale transaction, they expect to incur a significant loss. However, they are unable to estimate a range of loss.

Cummins is the exclusive medium-duty engine provider for PACCAR worldwide and Ford in Brazil. Cummins Inc. has long-term heavy-duty engine supply agreements with PACCAR and Volvo Trucks North America. They have mid-range supply agreements with PACCAR, as its exclusive engine supplier, as well as with Daimler Trucks North America (formerly Freightliner LLC), Ford and Volkswagen. Collectively, the net sales to these six customers was less than 21 percent of consolidated net sales in 2008 and individually was less than 8 percent of consolidated net sales to any single customer. Main automotive OEMs for heavy- and medium-duty trucks, buses, recreational vehicles (RVs). customers: R&D data: Research, development and engineering expenses increased significantly, primarily due to higher spending on development programs for future products including increased headcount, compensation and related expenses. Compensation and related expenses include salaries, variable compensation and fringe benefits. Fluctuations in other miscellaneous research and development expenses were not significant individually or in the aggregate. Overall, research, development and engineering expenses as a percentage of sales increased to 2.9 percent in 2008 from 2.5 percent in 2007. Research and development expenses, net of contract reimbursements, were US$422 million in 2008, US$318 million in 2007 and US$312 million in 2006. Contract reimbursements were US$61 million in 2008, US$52 million in 2007 and US$40 million in 2006. For 2008 and 2007, 27 percent, or US$116 million, and 17 percent, or US$55 million, respectively, were directly related to compliance with 2010 EPA emissions standards. For 2006, 3 percent, or US$10 million, was related to compliance with 2007 EPA emissions standards. Revenue split: Engine Net Sales by Market: Heavy-duty truck: FY09: 2,308 US$, FY2007: 1,948 US$, Medium-duty truck and bus: FY08: 1,550 US$, FY07: 1,284 US$, Light-duty automotive and RV: FY08: 804 US$, FY07: 1,340 US, Total on-highway: FY08: 4,662 US$, FY07: 4,572 US$, Industrial: FY08: 3,029 US$, FY07: 2,676 US$, Stationary power: FY08: 1,119 US$, FY07: 934 US$. Net sales by region: United States: FY08: 5,817 US$, FY07: 6,007 US$, Brazil: FY08: 866 US$, FY07: 649 US$, China: FY08: 783 US$, FY07: 603 US$, India: FY08: 702 US$, FY07: 619 US$, United Kingdom: FY08: 692 US$, FY07: 621 US$, Canada: FY08: 619 US$, FY07: 405 US$, Other foreign countries: FY08: 4,863 US$, FY07: 4,144 US$. Strategy: Net sales 2008 of Cummins increased in all segments due to the following drivers: Commercial power generation business experienced increased demand, especially internationally. Cummins increased its market share in North American (includes the United States (U.S.) and Canada and excludes Mexico) heavy-duty truck and medium-duty truck and bus markets. Industrial engine markets demand increased, particularly the international construction and commercial marine markets. Cummins’ Distribution segment benefited from increased demand as well as the acquisition of a majority interest in three previously independent distributors. Cummins’ turbocharger and emissions solutions businesses experienced increased demand. Cummins had a favorable impact from foreign currency translation. These increases in net sales were partially offset by softening in the U.S. economy which has resulted in a significant reduction in demand in light-duty automotive and recreational markets for engines as well as decreased demand for consumer power generation products and a significant reduction in most other markets in the fourth quarter of 2008 as the result of the economic recession.

The three legally independent business divisions are coordinated by a Management Holding Company, the Benteler AG. Since its foundation in 1876 by Carl Benteler, four generations of the family have contributed to shaping the Group, which is still in family ownership today, and now one of the largest industrial enterprises in Germany. Operating under the Benteler name, the business is not only one of the largest independent automotive suppliers, but also one of the most important steel tube manufacturers in Europe as well as one of the leading stock holders and processors of steel tubes and stainless steel tubes. The Benteler Group is internationally active at 150 locations in 35 countries. The Group can look back on 130 years of success, and is now owned by the fourth generation of its founding family. Today, Benteler employs 24,280 persons; breakdown of Employees by Devision (Annual Average) Automotive: 18,361 in 2008, 17,742 in 2007; Steel/Tube: 1,696 in 2008, 1,616 in 2007; Holding: 154 in 2008, 143 in 2007. The Automotive Division develops and produces ready-to-install modules, components and parts for bodies, chassis and engines at 16 engineering offices and 52 plants in 22 countries. Focus: Research, development and production for tailor-made customer solutions; Chassis Systems Product Group: High-tech chassis components and integrated chassis modules made of state-of-the-art, highly specialized materials; Structures Product Group: Extremely lightweight, ultra high-strength com ponents for the safety requirements of tomorrow; Engine and Exhaust Systems Product Group: Components, modules and systems to optimize exhaust gas temperature and management and to reduce emissions, and parts for engine management and engine peripherals; Engineering Services Product Group: PDE Automotive, Optical Systems and Mechanical Engineering for Glass Processing. Number of fully consolidated companies 12/31/2008: Germany 29, Other countries 76; 12/31/2007 Germany 26, Other countries 73. In addition, two associated companies are included using the equity method. Fourteen subsidiaries are not consolidated because their total influence on the Group’s performance in terms of assets, financial position, and earnings is of lesser importance. These include the recently founded Benteler Automotive India Private Limited, in India, and Benteler Automotive (Fuzhou) Co., Ltd., in China. The four companies of the Rothrist Group, which were not consolidated in the prior year in exercise of the option under Sec. 296 (1) No. 2 of the German Commercial Code (HGB), were consolidated for the first time in 2008. The following other companies have also been consolidated for the first time: Benteler SGL GmbH & Co. KG, Benteler SGL Verwaltungs-GmbH (both in Paderborn, Germany), Benteler JIT Pamplona S.L., in Spain, and Benteler Automotive Netherlands B.V., in the Netherlands. Charles Nell S.A. and Benteler Automotive S.A., both in Switzerland, were merged with Kindlimann AG,also in Switzerland, in 2008. Automotive market Operating under the Benteler name, the business is not only one of the largest independent automotive suppliers, but also one of the most important steel tube manufacturers in leader in: Europe as well as one of the leading stock holders and processors of steel tubes and stainless steel tubes. Main automotive Benteler Automotive is a full-service supplier to virtually every major automobile manufacturer worldwide; several automotive suppliers customers: R&D data: The Benteler Group increased its development expenditures in 2008 to 123.3 million euros, 12.8% more than in 2007. Revenue split: External sales by market area: Germany 1,765.5 Mio Euro, 27.9% 2008, 1,730.7Mio Euro, 27.4% 2007; Other EU and EFTA 2,277.3 Mio Euro, 36.0% 2008, 2,281.1 Mio Euro, 36.1% 2007; Americas 1,752.6 Mio Euro, 27.7% 2008, 1,806.7 Mio Euro, 28.6% 2007; Asia/Pacific 465.7 Mio Euro, 7.4% 2008, 427.2 Mio Euro, 6.8% 2007; Others 66.3 Mio Euro, 1.0% 2008, 73.7 Mio Euro, 1.1% 2007. Benteler Automotive remained the largest division, with nearly 70% of Group sales. Sales at the division decreased by 4%, to 4,580 million Euros. Strategy: Automotive: The Chassis Systems Product Group’s sales were down 5%. This product group develops and manufactures chassis subframes, control arms and knuckles, as well as complete, ready-to-install front and rear suspension modules. Module sales decreased because one customer procured materials for a major order directly. A plant closing in Canada also had the effect of reducing revenues. The customer halted production of the vehicle at the end of 2007. A new module order began in Spain; here Benteler Automotive built a module assembly plant for the VW Polo and Seat Ibiza. Production of chassis components remained at the previous year’s level in 2008. Sales of both modules as well as chassis components were increasingly impacted by the economic situation during the course of the year. The Structures Product Group is the second-largest business unit at Benteler Automotive. It manufactures high-strength safety components such as bumpers, roof frames, A- and B-pillars, door beams and instrument panel supports, as well as press parts (primarily for internal use). This product group’s sales revenues maintained the prior year’s level in 2008. As in the other units, sales volumes to outside customers decreased. But this decrease was compensated by increased deliveries of press parts to other product groups. The Engine and Exhaust Systems Product Group develops and manufactures components and systems to optimize exhaust gas temperature and management, and to reduce emissions. These include, for example, exhaust manifolds and housings for converters and diesel particle filters. The product group also manufactures parts for engine management and fuel supply. Its sales revenues were down 16% in 2008. Lower sales volumes caused revenues for exhaust systems to decrease especially sharply in North America. In components for engine management and fuel supply, the revision of the product portfolio in past years joined with recent economic conditions to reduce revenues. The Engineering Services Product Group offers engineering services for external and internal customers. It also produces machines and tools for Benteler Automotive and for the glass industry. Both the engineering business and the glass processing business grew. During the year, a portion of this group’s activities were transferred to other product groups, so that sales are not comparable with the prior-year figures.

Strategy: Transformation: Over 2009-2011 Pirelli will use the discontinuity of external scenario to transform the Group, catching new opportunities for growth and development. Focus on core business: The target is to achieve a better standing among the automotive industry leaders through better focus on Tyre, its core business, as well as on filters. “Green performance”: All the businesses of the Group will be geared to developing innovative products and solutions in line with the “green economy” concept that shows considerable growth opportunities in a number of sectors: sustainable mobility, environmental-friendly real estate and renewable energy. Environmental compliance and awareness are currently values acknowledged by the Governments of many Countries through financial aids and by consumers alike. Pirelli’s ultimate target is to double, revenues from the “green” business vs the Group overall sales, moving from 20% to 40%. On November 6, 2008, Pirelli & C. S.p.A. and Russian Technologies sealed an agreement for a new industrial joint venture between the two companies that will start production of tyres in Russia within the next two to three years, compatible with the evolution of the macroeconomic scenario. To date, the agreements signed between the two companies call for the building of a new site for the manufacture of car and truck tyres in the Samara region with initial production capacity of about 4.2 million pieces, for a joint investment of approximately Euros 300 million. On October 20, 2008, Pirelli Eco Technology S.p.A., the company in the Pirelli Group which operates in the field of technologies for controlling emissions from diesel engines, announced that it was the first in Italy to obtain homologation from the Italian Ministry of Infrastructures and Transportation for five types of particulate filters for existing light and heavy trucks. The Pirelli particulate filters, developed using silicon carbide technology, can reduce fine-particle diesel engine emissions by more than 95 percent, and can make a significant contribution to improving air quality. As a result of homologation, vehicles fitted with Pirelli’s particulate filters will have a better category of exhaust from the standpoint of the Euro standards (the range is Euro0 - Euro5) and will also be allowed to circulate freely in urban areas where vehicles that produce greater pollution are denied access. On August 21, 2008, Pirelli Tyre S.p.A. purchased the minority stakes in the two subsidiaries through which it operates in Turkey from Isbank. The group acquired 25.75 percent of Pirelli Turk Lastikleri A.S. (which manufactures and markets car and industrial vehicle tyres) and 48 percent of Celikord A.S. (which manufactures and markets steelcord). As part of the transaction, Pirelli also acquired another 1 percent stake in Celikord from other shareholders. The total amount of the transactions is about Euros 43 million, with a positive impact on the result for the year of Euros 27.3 million owing to the fact that the cost of acquisition is lower than the relative accounting net assets acquired. Following the agreement, Pirelli holds 95.35 percent of Pirelli Turk Lastikleri and 100 percent of Celikord. The operation strengthens the group’s position in a country that is strategic in terms of manufacturing, marketing and logistics. On July 10, 2008, the Italian Ministry for the Environment signed an agreement with the City of Beijing to begin an experiment in the Chinese capital on the particulate filter technology developed by Pirelli Eco Technology. Such filters are capable of reducing fine particle diesel engine emissions by more than 95 percent. The agreement calls for the installation of Pirelli filtering systems on heavy vehicles (mainly buses, but also trucks and later snow ploughs and tractors) that will be supplied to the local public transport company. The first filtering systems were installed before the start of the Olympics in August 2008. On April 22, 2008, the Pirelli Group and Politecnico University of Milan sealed an agreement to set up a chair on “Chemical Foundations of Rubber and Compounds Technology”. The new professorship will study innovative materials and the useof nanotechnology for the development of new-generation tyres. Pirelli will also fund five PhD research scholarships under this agreement over a period of 10 years in the Chemical, Materials and Chemical Engineering “G. Natta” Department at Politecnico University of Milan. On June 3, 2008, the Pirelli Group announced its intention to increase production in Egypt thanks to a new investment of U.S. $65 million to expand the capacity of the radial tyre factory for trucks and buses in Alessandria in Egypt. The new investment will enable this Egyptian factory to raise its annual production to one million pieces and become the largest radial tyres production facility for industrial vehicles in the MEA area (Middle East and Africa). March 11, 2008, Pirelli & C. S.p.A. reached an agreement to acquire the entire share capital of Speed S.p.A., a company in which interests are held by leading financial institutions (Intesa San-Paolo, Gruppo Banca Leonardo, UniCredit, One Equity Partners - JP Morgan Group, Lehman Brothers and Mediobanca), and, the holder, since August 2006, of the 38.9 percent stake in Pirelli Tyre S.p.A., for Euros 434.4 million which was financed by the company’s liquid resources. The price takes into account a loan by Speed S.p.A. of Euros 401.1 million. Following the acquisition of the equity of the minority shareholders, the Group owns 100 percent of Pirelli Tyre S.p.A.

The company is well positioned to capture significant revenue growth going forward as the result of stricter light and commercial vehicle emission regulations being implemented in most markets worldwide over the next five years. Acquisitions: On September 1, 2008, Tenneco acquired the suspension business of Gruppo Marzocchi, an Italy based worldwide leader in supplying suspension technology in the two wheeler market. The consideration paid for the Marzocchi acquisition included cash of approximately $1 million, plus the assumption of Marzocchi’s net debt (debt less cash acquired) of about $6 million. The Marzocchi acquisition is accounted for as a purchase business combination with assets acquired and liabilities assumed recorded in their consolidated balance sheet as of September 1, 2008 including $10 million in goodwill. The acquisition of the Gruppo Marzocchi suspension business includes a manufacturing facility in Bologna, Italy, associated engineering and intellectual property, the Marzocchi brand name, sales, marketing and customer service operations in the United States and Canada, and purchasing and sales operations in Taiwan. The final allocation of the purchase price is pending the fair value appraisal of the long-lived assets acquired which will be completed by the third quarter of 2009. On May 30, 2008, Tenneco acquired from Delphi Automotive Systems LLC certain ride control assets and inventory at Delphi’s Kettering, Ohio facility. They are utilizing the purchased assets in other locations to grow their OE ride control business globally. Tenneco paid approximately $10 million for existing ride control components inventory and approximately $9 million for certain machinery and equipment. Tenneco’s global footprint helped the company attract new business despite difficult industry conditions. The new business included contracts with several Japan-based manufacturers for 13 different vehicle platforms, launching between late 2009 and 2011. Most of this business will be produced in the expanding markets of Brazil, Russia, India, China and Thailand, enabling Tenneco to expand operations in these fast-growing emerging markets. In 2007 and 2008, the company has won more than $265 million annualized in new business with Japanese OEMs. Purchasing organisation: http://www.tasupplier.com/ Further important Latest company press releases, see: http://www.tenneco.com/News/Current/ URL’s /links: Other important links: http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=113459&p=irol-IRHome & http://www.tenneco.com/media/annualreport/ Sources: 10-K, Annual Report, Company Website Annotations: ** Including Europe, South America and India, see also: http://www.tenneco.com/GlobalPresence/Markets/

Forming a global tire business alliance with The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company in 1999, Sumitomo Rubber Industries has established joint ventures with them for production and sales activities in Europe and North America, as well as for sales in Japan, while also promoting tire technology exchange and jointly procuring raw materials and manufacturing equipment. Sports Business: Servicing the golf equipment market, SRI Sports manufactures and markets such items as clubs and balls. In its tennis equipment activities, the company offers several products including rackets and balls. In December 2007, SRI Sports acquired the leading U.S. golf club maker Roger Cleveland Golf Company, Inc. and its five group companies (“Cleveland”) and added the Cleveland brand to its mainstay XXIO and SRIXON golf brands to expand its product lineup. SRI Sports was listed on the first section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange in 2006. Industrial and Other Products Business: SRI Hybrid offers a wide variety of products encompassing precision rubber parts for printers and photocopiers, high damping rubber, artificial turf for sporting use, flooring materials, rubber gloves, rubber gas tubes, blankets for offset printing presses, civil engineering and marine products, and medical rubber parts, covering diverse needs that range from daily life use to industrial applications. Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd. is the biggest share holder of Sumitomo Rubber with 26.74% of its shares. Company history, see: http://www3.srigroup.co.jp/CACHE/groupinfo_history_e.cfm Automotive market One of the biggest tire producers in Japan leader in: Main automotive Major OEMs, aftermarket customers: R&D data: With a core of Sumitomo Rubber Industries’ R&D organization and facilities, the Group promotes R&D activities in wide-ranging fields—the tire, sports and industrial and other product businesses—in close cooperation with its subsidiaries and affiliates around the world. In addition, the Group has pursued the exchange of technology in its Tire business based on a global alliance with The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company since 1999. In conjunction with this, the Group formed dedicated project teams to carry out joint research for specific themes. Furthermore, Sumitomo Rubber is constructing the Tyre Technical Center, which is going to be the key facility of the Group’s R&D activities for tire technology. The Tyre Technical Center will engage in the development of next-generation, eco-friendly tires. Total R&D expenses in the fiscal year 2008 amounted to ¥19,351 million, which accounted for 3.2% of consolidated net sales. Research and development expenses climbed 6.2% year on year. The Tire business accounted for ¥16,013 million of these expenses, up 6.0% from the previous fi scal year, the Sports business ¥1,417 million, up 12.9%, and the Industrial and Other Products business ¥1,920 million, up 3.1%. Research & development of rubber and plastic materials Design, development and manufacture of production equipment, System design, development and management, Transportation and warehousing Revenue split: Tire business: FY08: 82.8%, FY07: 84.3% of sales total sales; Sports business: FY08: 12.3%, FY07: 10.5% of total sales; Industrial and Other Products business: FY08: 4.9%, FY07: 5.2% of total sales. Tire Business: Sales in the Tire business rose 4.7% year on year to ¥501,063 million, while operating income dropped 55.8% to ¥15,849 million. This was due to unprecedented raw material price hikes and profit deterioration in the export business, reflecting the appreciation of the Japanese yen in the second half of fiscal 2008. Compared with the previous fiscal year, such factors caused the Group’s overall raw material costs to rise by approximately ¥36.7 billion and brought about ¥5 billion in foreign currency exchange losses. With the aim of absorbing the impact of decreased earnings, Sumitomo Rubber Industries strived to develop and release new products, while implementing proactive sales expansion promotion activities in overseas markets. Furthermore, the Company pushed to streamline product distribution and increase production overseas. Together with this, the Company engaged in various measures, including the optimization of sales prices, in pursuit of securing profits. Sports Business: Sales in the Sports business grew 24.8% year on year to ¥74,289 million, and operating income expanded 13.9% to ¥7,719 million. Amid deteriorating golf goods markets both in Japan and overseas, demand for the XXIO golf clubs remained robust in the domestic market. Overseas, SRI Sports acquired U.S. golf club maker Cleveland in December 2007. These factors resulted in an increase in sales and profits. Industrial and Other Products Business: Sales in the Industrial and Other Products business rose 1.1% from the previous fiscal year to ¥29,622 million, while operating income decreased 25.7% to ¥1,813 million. During the fiscal year under review, sales of civil engineering/marine facility-related products such as marine fenders and medical rubber parts were favorable. In addition, artificial turf for sporting use and GRAST vibration-control technology using extra-high damping rubber showed brisk demand. However, sales of this segment’s mainstay precision rubber parts for printers and photocopiers were stagnant on the back of the global economic recession and the impact of the strong yen. As a result, decreased revenues and earnings were recorded in this segment. Strategy: In its Long-Term Vision, the Sumitomo Rubber Group aims to become a corporate group that consistently generates superior corporate value in various business sectors by 2015. It will accomplish this aim through its proprietary driving forces, namely: front-line operational skills, leading development capabilities and technological expertise, in addition to having the industry’s top earnings power. In pursuit of achieving the goals of its Long-Term Vision, the Group will make maximum use of rubber’s potential as a material in its three business segments of Tire, Sports and Industrial and Other Products. The Sumitomo Rubber Group will continue to take on the challenge of creating new benefits in an effort to enhance stakeholder value. In its mainstay Tire business, Sumitomo Rubber Industries is striving to increase its overseas tire production ratio from 25% to 60% compared with performance in 2005, while aiming to double sales in the overseas replacement market by 2015. By doing so, the Company will gain a competitive position in the global tire market.

Behr anticipates that the downward trend on the European passenger car market will continue in the current year and that production will drop by over 20%. For commercial vehicles, a decrease of as much as 50% is to be expected. Behr also expects the USA market to decline further. Experts predict that light vehicle production will fall to well below 10 million units. In 2008, 12.9 million vehicles in this class were produced; in 2007, it was even 15 million. Based on these assumptions, Behr anticipates that Behr Group sales will decrease by 15 to 20% in 2009. The numerous new product launches will help ensure that the downturn will not continue to worsen. Profit situation will become more acute. For this reason, Behr will continue to consistently implement the measures introduced to reduce costs and increase profitability. However, some of these measures will first have an effect in 2010. Even if the market does not recover significantly, Behr´s objective is to make the turnaround in 2011.

In 1919 Max Brose founded Metallwerk Max Brose & Co. in Coburg together with his partner Ernst Jühling and headed the company for six decades. In three-and-a-half decades, his grandson Michael Stoschek developed Brose into an international group that is a world leader in terms of market share, technology and quality. With 50 locations, Brose is today globally represented on all major automotive markets: Headquarters in Germany (Coburg), USA (Detroit) und China (Shanghai); sites for Development and Sales in Germany (Berlin, Coburg, Hallstadt, Ingolstadt/Munich, Nuremberg, Oldenburg, Rüsselsheim, Stuttgart, Wolfsburg, Wuppertal and Würzburg), France (Paris), Russia (Moscow), Sweden (Gothenburg), USA (Detroit), China (Shanghai), India (Pune), Japan (Nagoya and Toyota City), Korea (Suwon); sites for production: Europe in Germany (Berlin, Coburg, Gifhorn, Hallstadt, Meerane, Rastatt, Saarwellingen, Sindelfingen, Wuppertal and Würzburg), Belgium (Ghent), Czech Republic (Ostrava and Trutnov), Great Britain (Coventry), France (La Suze), Hungary (Budapest), Portugal (Tondela), Spain (Sta. Margarida), Slovakia (Bratislava), Sweden (Gothenburg), Turkey (Istanbul); Americas in Brazil (Curitiba and Salto), Canada (London), Mexico (Puebla, Querétaro and Reynosa), USA (Chicago, Gainesville, Tuscaloosa); Asia: China (Changchun, Shanghai, Wuhan and Zhangijagang), Africa in South Africa (Brits); Joint Ventures: Turkey (Istanbul), South Africa (Brits), China (Shanghai and Zhangjiagang), Japan (Toyota City) and Korea (Suwon) Products: Window regulators: World market leader; Door systems: World market leader; Seat systems: Market leader in Europe with power seat adjusters; Closure systems: Position 2 in Europe; Electric drives: World market leader with drives for ABS, HVAC and market leader in Europe with Cooling Fan Modules More than 40 vehicle brands and automotive suppliers

In 2008 Brose spent 10% of sales revenues on developing new products and production methods, information technology as well as personnel training and development. The company also invested some 200 million euros in expanding their technological expertise. There are 1,600 employees working in the worldwide research and development departments. Revenue split: The Brose Group was able to continue its course of growth in 2008. Thanks to the acquisition of the electric motors operations from Continental AG, the increase in global turnover was particularly significant. Sales revenues rose by 13% to 2.8 billion euros, a figure which includes turnover amounting to around 450 million euros from the motor business. The Brose business divisions developed differently. While sales revenues generated by door systems fell by 9%, the seat system business increased by 3%, and the turnover in the area of closure systems rose by 4%. Strategy: With its new business division “drives” ** Brose further expands its competence as a specialist in mechatronic systems for the body and interior of the car. The company wants to offer their customers an optimum price/performance ratio in terms of technology, quality and service. The increase in global turnover was particularly significant. Sales revenues rose by 13% to 2.8 billion euros, a figure which includes turnover amounting to around 450 million euros from the motor business. After three consecutive quarters of strong growth in all business segments, customer call-offs decreased in the 4th quarter of 2008 due to the sharp decline in global vehicle production by as much as 40%. On account of the sharp decline in sales in the final quarter of 2008, the high staffing level of more than 15,000 employees worldwide could not be maintained. More than 1,000 jobs were cut at locations in Europe and overseas, by deploying fewer temporary staff and not filling posts that became vacant. In addition, shifts were reduced from October 2008, flexi-time accounts and remaining vacation days were used up and the holiday closure period at locations worldwide was extended over the New Year. Thus at the end of 2008, there were approx. 14,300 people working for the corporate group at 52 locations in 21 countries around the world. “Despite the current economic crisis, Brose will be investing in new products, technologies, qualified managerial staff and employees in 2009 as well. 100 million euros have been planned for investments in fixed assets. These include, for example, extending the test center in Coburg, expanding the testing capabilities of our headquarters in Detroit and Shanghai as well as preparing manufacturing facilities for product SOPs in our plants in Europe and overseas. In addition, a distinct focus will be on building up development and sales functions in Asia and Eastern Europe,” says Jürgen Otto, CEO of the Brose Group.

The Fluid Power segment was realigned into the Hydraulics segment and the Aerospace segment. The Electrical and Truck segments continued as individual reporting segments and the automotive fluid connectors business was transferred to the Automotive segment from Fluid Power. Accordingly, business segment information for prior years has been restated to conform to the current year’s presentation. The realignment of the segments did not affect net income for any of the periods presented. The principal markets for the Electrical segment are industrial, institutional, government, utility, commercial, residential, IT, mission critical and original equipment manufacturer customers. These products are used wherever there is a demand for electrical power in commercial buildings, data centers, residences, apartment and office buildings, hospitals and factories. Customers are generally concentrated in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific; however, sales are made globally. Sales are made directly and indirectly through distributors, resellers and manufacturers representatives to these customers. The principal markets for the Hydraulics segment include oil and gas, renewable energy, marine, agriculture, construction, mining, forestry, utility, material handling, truck and bus, machine tools, molding, primary metals, power generation and entertainment. Customers are located globally, and products are sold and serviced through a variety of channels.

The principal markets for the Automotive segment are original equipment manufacturers and aftermarket customers of light-duty trucks and passenger cars. These manufacturers and other customers are located globally, and most sales of these products are made directly to these customers. Hybrid electric. Eaton’s hybrid electric power systems have proven their ability to improve fuel economy and reduce emissions over more than nine million miles on the road. The technology continues to attract repeat orders from large companies like Coca-Cola, FedEx and UPS and new orders from Wal-Mart and other greenminded customers of all sizes. Eaton hybrid electric systems are now a factorybuilt option at four major U.S. commercial vehicle manufacturers, enabling us to capture a large share of this growing market. Truck and bus manufacturers in Europe and Asia are also integrating Eaton hybrid power to meet green city and fleet demands, saving fuel and greatly reducing harmful emissions. As the world’s appetite grows for environmentally friendly commercial vehicles, Eaton is primed to deliver. Automotive market Intelligent truck drivetrain systems for safety and fuel economy; automotive engine air management systems, powertrain solutions and specialty controls for performance, leader in: fuel economy and safety Main automotive The principal markets for the Truck and Automotive segments are original equipment manufacturers and after-market customers of heavy-, medium-, and light-duty trucks and customers: passenger cars. These manufacturers are located globally and most sales of these products are made directly to such manufacturers. No single customer represented more than 10% of net sales in 2008, 2007 or 2006. R&D data: Research & development expense in millions: FY08: 417 US$, FY07: 335 US$, FY06: 315 US$ Revenue split: 31% = $4.8 billion in revenues Residential electric, heavy-duty truck, automotive; 30% = $4.6 billion in revenues Hydraulics, industrial controls, medium-duty truck; 27% = $4.1 billion in revenues, Commercial aerospace, nonresidential construction, power quality; 12% = $1.9 billion in revenues Electrical service, defense, filtration, aerospace aftermarket. During 2008, 55 percent of Eaton’s revenues were generated outside of the U.S., including more than 20 percent from developing economies. No single customer represented more than 10% of net sales in 2008, 2007 or 2006. The 13% decrease in sales of the Automotive segment in 2008 from 2007 reflected a 15% decrease in sales volume, partially offset by a 2% increase from foreign exchange. In 2008, global automotive markets declined 7% compared to 2007, with U.S. markets down 16% and non-U.S. markets down 2%. The North American markets were weak throughout 2008, and Europe, Brazil and China also weakened dramatically during the year. In addition, the strike at a major U.S. automotive supplier was not fully resolved until very late in the second quarter of 2008, further reducing automotive production in the U.S. in 2008. Additionally, due to the economic downturn in the fourth quarter of 2008, automotive markets dropped sharply around the world, with automotive unit production in the fourth quarter declining by 24%. Strategy: Eaton’s end markets continued to decline during early 2009. Eaton expects its end markets in 2009 to decline through the second, and possibly the third, quarter. Eaton now expects its end markets to decline by between 10% and 11% compared to 2008. It expects to outgrow the end markets in 2009 by approximately $300 of sales, and also expects approximately $400 of sales growth from the full-year impact of the six acquisitions completed in 2008. These increases are expected to offset a decline in foreign currencies of 6%. As a result, sales in 2009 are now anticipated to decline by 11% compared to 2008. Corporate Goals: Eaton achieves its business goals by adhering to Eaton’s core values. The Eaton Philosophy states that success depends on the superior performance of each employee in support of the customers. When employees commit themselves to the goals of the organization, sustained high performance will follow. This level of commitment does not just happen; it is created when employees, managers and the company all share certain key beliefs about their mutual responsibilities to one another. The Eaton Philosophy sets out these shared beliefs, describing a culture in which employees can achieve their full potential to make exceptional contributions, confident that these will be welcomed and rewarded. The key elements of Eaton’s core values include: Making customers the focus of everything they do; Recognizing their own people as their greatest asset; Treating each other with respect; Being fair, honest and open; Being considerate of the environment and their communities; Keeping commitments; Striving for excellence.

It comprises four main businesses: flat glass manufacturing, processing and distribution of glass for the building industry, automotive glazing, and distribution of glass products, photovoltaic modules and systems for the solar energy market. Flat glass is manufactured in large industrial facilities on long float lines that produce everything from basic clear and colored grades to more sophisticated types with metallic oxides or other special coatings for use in a wide range of applications, such as insulation and solar control glass. The Flat Glass Division has 34 float lines worldwide, including 13 operated through joint ventures. A new line is currently under construction in Egypt. High-Performance Materials: The High-Performance Materials Division delivers high valueadded solutions for the construction and manufacturing markets, leveraging proficiency in three main types of materials – mineral ceramics (though the Ceramics, Grains & Powders, Abrasives and Crystals businesses), performance polymers (Performance Plastics) and glass fabrics (Textile Solutions). The Division has acquired leading edge expertise in a range of technologies running across these businesses, enabling it to leverage all the benefits of these highly complementary materials and to design innovative composites. The High-Performance Materials Division allocates a significant proportion of net sales to Research and Development (close to 4% in 2008). Most of the Research and Development commitment is focused on large projects that demonstrate the immense potential of these types of materials to address today’s most critical habitat and construction, energy and environmental challenges. Examples of Research and Development projects include: Improving roof performance with films and compound fabrics. By combining performance plastics and glass fabrics, they can design new roofing films and membranes that last longer, insulate better and are self-cleaning. Reducing automotive emissions with the diesel particulate filter. Silicon carbide, one of the Division’s key materials, is used to meet exacting specifications for particulate filters, which will become compulsory on diesel engines under European standards in 2010. Decentralizing power generation with fuel cells. Ceramicoxide fuel cells can be used to generate home electricity from natural gas. Construction Products: Saint-Gobain Construction Products markets interior and exterior solutions through its Gypsum, Insulation, Exterior Fittings, Pipe and Industrial Mortars divisions. The Sector has products for every need, both technical (such as noise control, insulation, sheathing or waterproofing) and non-technical (for example, easy installation or stylish design), backed by highly professional teams, well-known brands and robust strategic positions. The highlight of the year was the March acquisition of the Maxit group, which has doubled the size of the industrial mortars business and lifted it to the position of leader (Source Saint-Gobain) in Germany and the Nordic countries. In the coming years, we will continue to expand in the renovation markets by providing innovative energy-saving and noise control solutions. Building Distribution: Saint-Gobain’s Building Distribution Sector is Europe’s leading distributor of building materials and the world’s leading distributor of ceramic tiles (Source Saint-Gobain), serving the building, renovation and interior decoration markets. Its customers include builders, architects, interior decorators and DIY enthusiasts. Since it was founded in 1996, the Sector has expanded rapidly through a combination of organic and external growth. The acquisition process began in France, with Point.P and Lapeyre, and continued in the United Kingdom, with Jewson and Graham, Germany, the Netherlands and Eastern Europe, with Raab Karcher, the Nordic countries with Dahl and Optimera, and the United States, where the acquisition of Norandex has taken the business to a new level. In 2008, the Sector continued to consolidate its network through bolt-on acquisitions and by opening new sales outlets, while also extending its geographic footprint with the acquisition of DLH in Denmark and Famar Desi in the Baltic countries. Packaging: Saint-Gobain Packaging ranks No.2 worldwide (Saint-Gobain) in glass containers, with sales operations in forty-six countries and manufacturing facilities in twelve. The Sector offers its 20,000 customers the power of a global network of six Research and Development centers, 49 glass plants and 98 glass furnaces, allied with a local marketing presence in what is still an essentially regional market. In 2008, the Sector had 15,500 employees and produced 26.2 billion bottles and jars. Following the sale of its plastic pumps business in 2006 and its flasks operations in 2007, the Sector has completely refocused on its core areas of excellence – wine, champagne and spirits bottles and food jars (for baby foods, soluble products, yogurts, desserts, etc.). Saint-Gobain is a world leader (Source: Saint-Gobain) in these markets, a position that is supported by its strong regional footprint. The Sector also operates in other segments of the food and beverages industry, supplying glass containers for such products as fruit juices, soft drinks, mineral water and oil.

The Group’s increased investment in Research and Development has also led to a steady rise in the number of patent applications filed in recent years. In 2008, 80% of the 338 filings concerned the Innovative Materials Sector and were spread more or less evenly between the High-Performance Materials Division and the Flat Glass Division. Saint-Gobain has around 20,000 current patents worldwide. Revenue split: Amid a difficult economic climate, Saint-Gobain delivered 2008 sales in line with 2007 figures, which marked a record year for the Group. Organic growth came in at 0.3% and reflects the stark contrast between a satisfactory performance in the first nine months of the year and a sharp downturn in the fourth quarter. Flat Glass FY08: 12.5%, High-Performance Materials 9.5%, Construction Products 25%, Building Distribution 45%, Packaging 8% Breakdown of sales by market: Construction 34%, Renovation 36%, Other markets 30% thereof infrastructure 9%, automotive 6, other industries 6%, household consumption 9% Strategy: Innovation is the driving of Saint-Gobain’s strategy. This is why resources dedicated to Research have been increasing by 10% every year since 2004. Recruitment of researchers and technical staff has also gone up, rising in three years from 2,000 to almost 3,500 people in 2008.

Capital Expenditures: FY2009: 433 Billions JPY; FY2008: 273 Billions JPY; FY2007: 460 Billions JPY. Research and Development Expenses: FY2008: 153 FY2009: Billions JPY; FY2008: 153 Billions JPY; FY2007: 147 Billions JPY. R&D activities cover materials development, product design, testing and evaluation. Yokohama’s Research and Development Integrated Centre (RADIC) at the Hiratsuka Factory is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, including supercomputers and centrifugal separators. At its extensive testing facilities at D-PARC (Daigo Proving Ground and Research Centre) and T*MARY (Takasu Motoring and Researching Yard) the company simulates all types of road surface. D-PARC’s oval track features 41-degree banking, Japan’s largest skid pad, and 20 types of road surface. At T*MARY, a test course for snow tyres, Yokohama evaluates the driving, braking, and cornering capabilities of studless tyres under a variety of conditions. Revenue split: Sales declined in tires and in diversified products. Yokohama’s Tire Group posted sales declines in Japan in original equipment tires and in replacement tires, and tire sales were also generally weak in overseas markets, where the appreciation of the yen weighed heavily on the yen-denominated sales totals. In Yokohama’s Multiple Business (diversified products) Group, sales declines in hoses, sealants, aerospace products, and golf equipment more than offset gains in laminated bearings for protecting structures from earthquakes. Yokohama’s downturn in profitability resulted from the sales declines and the appreciation of the yen and also from productivity declines in tires and hoses associated with slumping demand and from the continuing upward trend in raw material costs. Strategy: Management Policies: Take on the challenge of new technologies to produce new value; Develop proprietary business fields to expand the scope of business; Create a workplace that values, improves and energizes people; Deal fairly with society and value harmony with the environment. July.1, 2009: The Yokohama Rubber Co., Ltd., has announced that its ADVAN Sport tires for premium sports cars - part of its global flagship series - have been selected as original equipment for Mercedes-Benz C-Class models produced by Daimler AG. The tires adopted for the C-Class consist of three sizes: 205/55R16 91V, 225/45R17 91W, and 245/40R17 91W (the last only for the rear). Yokohama tires have been approved as original equipment for Mercedes-Benz’s top AMG models: CL65 and 63 AMG, C63 AMG and ML 63 AMG.

Revenue split: Automobile: FY09: 97.3%, FY08: 96.5%, Motorcycle: FY09: 1.9%, FY08: 2.0%, Other FY09: 0.8%, FY08: 1.5%. In the Automobile segment, sales decreased 14.9%, to ¥394,000 million. Although orders in China, other parts of Asia and Brazil were generally robust, orders fell for the segment as a whole owing to sharp contractions in the automobile markets in Japan and the United States. In the fiscal year under review, sales in the Automobile segment accounted for 97.3% of consolidated net sales, compared with 96.5% in the previous term. The Group’s main product category of automobile seats recorded sales amounting to ¥328,605 million, a decline of ¥56,804 million, or 14.7%, compared with the previous fiscal year. Interior products, including door trim and roof trim products, posted sales totaling ¥65,059 million, a decrease of ¥12,009 million, or 15.6%, compared with the previous fiscal year. Strategy: In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, the global economy entered a severe recession as effects from the financial crisis, which began in the United States, spread to the real economy. In the automobile industry, slumping worldwide demand for automobiles led to a sharp contraction in the market. This downturn initially affected such markets as Japan, North America and Europe, but later led to a fall in vehicle production volume in other parts of Asia, which had previously exhibited robust growth. Consequently, automobile manufacturers and their suppliers were forced to respond to an extremely harsh operating environment in the midst of global-scale inventory adjustments. Immediate actions by industry participants have included substantial production cuts and scaling back of capital expenditure plans. In light of current trends, the TS TECH Group believes that the global contraction in automobile production volume will reach a low point in the present cycle during the fiscal year ending March 31, 2010. TS TECH thinks that a recovery in output volume to the level recorded in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008 is some distance off, considering the seriousness of the impacts of the financial crisis in the United States and Europe. For this reason, their view is that difficult operating conditions will persist for the time being. To serve Japanese auto makers moving production facilities overseas, TS TECH has actively pursued a global expansion strategy since 1977, when it first established a presence in North America. In recent years they have strengthened their supply capabilities throughout Asia, including China, which has achieved astounding economic growth. The group now has a global network consisting of 34 subsidiaries in 11 countries, including Japan. TS TECH is working to further establish a worldwide business and strengthen its global competitiveness, by promoting more local production, setting up complementary systems based on alliances with local subsidiaries, and through the signing of technical assistance agreements with local parts manufacturers in other areas. On February 22, 2008, the Company reached a decision regarding the establishment of a new subsidiary in India, to be called TS TECH Sun Rajasthan Pvt. Ltd. In North America, TS TECH began supplying seats and interior trim for the new Honda ACCORD in early 2008. In China, the production of items for the Honda CIVIC and Honda CR-V remained strong, and in January 2008 TS TECH began supplying seats and interior trim for the new Honda ACCORD as well.

Automotive Parts Business: Futaba´s clients in the auto industry have responded to a dramatic downturn in demand by launching a number of new environmentally friendly models offering improved fuel efficiency, but the outlook for overall auto demand remains far from promising, and automakers are therefore being forced to build production systems that enable them to adapt deftly to demand changes to ensure that they can remain profitable even in the face of diminished demand. Japans auto industry is engaged in a global battle for market share, with worldwide competition equally fierce in areas such as technology development and cost reduction. They are working to further boost manufacturing efficiency and establish closer ties with overseas companies with a view to better satisfying their current clients and making Futaba more appealing to potential new customers. The Company is striving to make the various cost reductions needed to remain competitive in the rapidly developing mini- and super-mini car sector. Futaba is also developing a number of proprietary technologies aimed at reducing CO2 emissions and complying with various other environmental regulations, regarding such challenges as a source of new business opportunities. Information and Environmental Equipment Parts Business: The clients in the information equipment sector continue to shift their production bases to China, and Futaba has therefore been working to secure access to local manufacturing infrastructure while making every effort to further expand its customer base. The Company is also working with a number of other firms to develop various energy-related equipment parts with a view to launching commercially viable technologies for preventing global warming at the soonest possible opportunity. Manufacturing network also includes plants in Saga Prefecture, Iwate Prefecture and Aichi Prefecture (Anjo) in Japan, as well as in North America, China and South East Asia, creating a strong global presence.

Details, see also: http://www.nsk.com/rd/ & http://www.nsk.com/investors/pdf/events/fis2008q4fb.pdf Revenue split: In the automotive bearings business, sales of hub unit bearings were strong in both Europe and China during the first half of the year. Although sales remained solid in China during the second half of the year, sales in other areas decreased due to a rapid decline in production by automakers. In the automotive component business, sales in regions other than the Americas were solid during the first half of the year. While there were production launches of electric power steering (EPS) systems both in Japan and Europe, a decline in production by automakers negatively affected business in the second half of the year. As a result, net sales in the automotive products business totaled 352,453 million yen, a year-to-year decrease of 19.1% despite efforts to reduce external procurement costs and labor costs. Operating income was 6,812 million yen, a decrease of 77.8%, due to negative effects of volume reduction and reduced export profit margins caused by the appreciation of the Japanese yen and an increase in raw material costs.

Revenue continued to grow in emerging countries in Asia and South America, lifted by 2007 and 2008 capital projects in China and Argentina. Strategy: Automotive - a necessary Transformation: The past year severely impacted the automobile industry, with a global financial and liquidity crisis, a slowdown in consumer spending and declining demand in all markets. In these difficult times, the automobile is experiencing a crisis of its own. Once an object of desire, sometimes for the social status it bestows on its owner, the automobile could become just another consumer product with price as the only differentiating factor. Carmakers must respond to this new situation, which is shaped by greater environmental awareness, growing urban congestion, unstable fuel prices, and new driving habits, such as shared vehicles. These emerging expectations are redesigning the model of the automotive world, in which the car will remain the preferred means of individual mobility and freedom. This world will see the development of highly practical city cars that are service-oriented, restyled, more environmentally friendly and capable of being shared by different users. The emergence of this model represents an opportunity for Plastic Omnium, which is pursuing its efforts to optimize its sustainable mobility solutions. One involves using plastic and composite exterior and structural components that make cars lighter and more aerodynamic in order to reduce CO2 emissions. Another entails reducing diesel engine emissions and has already produced results that are below the limit of 80 mg of nitrous oxide per kilometer set by the Euro 6 standard for 2014. Still another concerns new energy storage systems for hybrid and electric vehicles. In China, YFPO, a manufacturer of exterior components in which Plastic Omnium holds a 49.95% stake, opened two new production plants in Nanjing and Pudong. June 2008 saw the start-up of the Inergy plant in Wuhan, which supplies fuel systems for the Nissan Teana and the BMW 3-Series. The Automotive Division now has six facilities in China. In Russia, a plant was built in Stavrovo to manufacture the fuel system for the Renault Logan, with production launched in early 2009. In India, Inergy began construction of a plant, located between Madras and Bangalore, which will supply the fuel tank for a new low-cost vehicle produced by Toyota, beginning in late 2010. Plastic Omnium and Varroc, its Indian partner, have also begun to build their plant in Pune, which will supply General Motors and Mahindra starting in 2010.

To respond to the large reductions in orders, KOITO has taken various measures to cut expenses, such as reducing investment in plants and equipment and cutting directors´remuneration and management employees´salaries. To reduce fixed costs further, KOITO has decided to accelerate the rationalization of its operation by temporarily closing two of its plants in Japan, therby concentrating management resources. With regard to KOITO’s business results for Fiscal year 2008 ending March 31, 2009, although performance remained relatively stable in the first half of the year, both net sales and profit decreased drastically in the second half, due to the sharp plunge in automobile production in Japan and overseas resulting from the slumping global economy. For Fiscal year 2009, while KOITO plans to increase orders for new vehicle models, expand sales of its new products and actively reduce costs through various measures, the plunge in domestic and international automobile production is likely to reduce KOITO’s net sales from last year and drastically reduce profit.

Rheinmetall was established in 1889 as Rheinische Metallwaaren- und Maschinenfabrik Actiengesellschaft. Today, Rheinmetall AG is a financially strong, internationally successful player in the markets for automotive components and defence equipment. The Automotive sector, parented by Kolbenschmidt Pierburg AG with its divisions Pistons, Air Supply, Pumps, Aluminum Technology, Plain Bearings, and Motor Service, specializes in modules and systems “for every aspect of the engine”. The Defence sector with its divisions Land Systems, Weapon and Munitions, Propellants, Air Defence, C4ISTAR and Simulation and Training, is one of Europe’s leading suppliers and foremost specialist in the market for land forces equipment. Rheinmetalls Automotive sector develops and manufactures eco-friendly auto industry products. In an age where the number of motor vehicles is growing worldwide and the global climate changing, the Kolbenschmidt Pierburg Group as a development partner of automotive manufacturers addresses their needs for solutions in the areas of emission control, fuel reduction, weight loss and performance enhancement while reconciling mobility trends with environmental protection requirements. Automotive market A market leader in air supply, emission control and pumps as well as in the development, manufacture and aftermarket supply of pistons, engine blocks, and plain bearings. leader in: Main automotive Major OEMs, main customers include Daimler, Ford and Porsche customers: R&D data: Rigorously managed Automotive expenditures: The Kolbenschmidt Pierburg Group invested €146 million (down from €148 million), with emphasis on the setting-up and expansion of facilities in the best-cost countries of India, Mexico and the Czech Republic, extending large-bore piston business, innovative production technologies, the development of customer projects and productivity improvements. At Pune in India, an infrastructure investment project for setting up an industrial park is almost completed. This will be used in unison by the Kolbenschmidt Pierburg divisions including Pierburg Pump Technology for water, oil and vacuum pumps. In France and Italy, the expenditure bill included supplier tooling and new-product start-ups; in Germany, extended water circulating pump capacity with a new assembly line and winding shop. Besides the outlays in Brazil and the USA for creating exhaust gas recirculation system production capacities, Pierburg invested in a second production shop at its Czech location. Finally, this division installed high-productivity manufacturing plant for the successful rollout of several cooling unit projects. R&D by corporate sector: Automotive: FY2008: €138 million, FY2007: €126 million, Defence: FY2008: €61 million, FY2007: €53 million. In fiscal 2008 groupwide R&D accounted for €199 million (up from €179 million), including €175 million (up from €156 million) directly expensed and another €24 million (up from €23 million) capitalized as development costs. The ratio of R&D expenditures to sales was 5.1 percent in 2008 (up from 4.5). R&D activities at Automotive in 2008 centered on long-term auto industry trends: curbing of CO2 emissions, the introduction of tighter exhaust gas standards, such as Euro 5 and Euro 6, reduction of component costs through state-of-the-art manufacturing methods and optimized products, and extended environmental requirements such as zero-lead bearings. Revenue split: The corporate sector Automotive reported sales of €2,055 million for 2008, which was €194 million or 8.6 percent short of the 2007 figure. In the first nine months of the year it was especially the weak US market that brought about sales losses of €45 million or 2.6 percent. Sales for the full 12 months were chiefly hit by the Q4 plunge of €149 million (down by 26.8 percent) attributable both to ongoing US production shrinkage and the dramatic production cutbacks by European OEMs. Apart from the aftermarket operations, all the Automotive divisions were hurt by the business decline. Slumping Q4/2008 demand at Pierburg meant that this division generated appreciably reduced sales from all its product groups, except air management. The only product group at the Pierburg Pump Technology division to show sales growth was water circulating pumps. Electric water pump sales were stable while vacuum and oil pump business wilted. The Pistons division generated double-digit growth rates with its large-bore pistons yet without offsetting the weaker demand for the smaller variety. The Plain Bearings division reported lower sales of metallic and Permaglide bearings as well as continuous castings. The latter decline was chiefly due to falling raw material prices and a remixed product range. The Aluminum Technology division encountered shrinking sales in all product groups. Aftermarket business at Motor Service proved resilient to the auto market recession thanks to the successful implementation of its growth strategy and prospering business operations in South America. Exports at Automotive accounted for a substantially unchanged 67 percent (down from 68) of sector sales. European exports made up the largest sales share, 44 percent, just as in earlier years. Asia and the Middle East contributed 5 percent to Automotive’s sales, North and Central America 11 percent, South America 6 percent, and other regions 1 percent. Strategy: With a very good performance by its Defence Sector, Düsseldorf-based Rheinmetall AG demonstrated strength within the crisis-ridden economic environment of fiscal 2008. Thanks to a healthy order situation and much improved profitability in the Defence sector, the Group was largely able to absorb its automotive business burdens. As part of the further consolidation of its internationalization strategy, the Automotive sector amplified its presence in both India and China during 2008. On the heels of the Pierburg division, Pierburg Pump Technology is the second division to be represented in India—by the newly founded Pierburg Pump Technology India Private Ltd. based in Mumbai, Maharashtra. This will allow the Rheinmetall Group’s Automotive sector to dig deeper into this increasingly important market and more easily exploit the region’s growth potential. Also reaching out into the Indian market has been KS Aluminum Technology, specifically the lightweight aluminum component segment with its ample growth potential: A license agreement was signed with Jaya Hind Industries Ltd., Pune, on the development and production of cylinder heads, engine blocks, bedplates, and other castings destined for (inter) national OEMs and their vendors.On behalf of the MS Motor Service division, the newly set-up MS Motor Service Shanghai Trading Company Ltd. is supplying from its Shanghai base China and neighboring countries with aftermarket products. The company provides engineering competence in the form of local training and additional services while benefiting from cooperation with other Kolbenschmidt Pierburg companies already resident in Shanghai. KS Kolbenschmidt and Metaldyne Corp., a subsidiary of the Japanese auto industry supplier Asahi Tec, have entered into a worldwide strategic partnership for jointly developing and marketing high-duty, lightweight and low-friction piston modules and assemblies. Two widely recognized partners are thus providing integrated R&D and projectmanagement with the aim of improved control in the development, supply and quality assurance of these engine components. KS Kolbenschmidt’s R&D competence in piston module development is supplemented by the joint development and marketing agreement made back in 2007 with NPR Nippon Piston Ring.

Nemak’s sales reflected the significant acquisitions carried out during the year 2007, which increased its total annual production capacity from 20 million to 42 million engine head equivalents, representing a 110 % increase. The combination of acquisitions and organic growth allowed it to reach sales of 31.9 million engine head equivalents in 2007, a 107% increase over 2006. Sales measured in pesos increased by 109% in 2007 compared to 2006. The significant drop in demand in the global automotive industry, which took place in 2008, limited Nemak’s performance. In spite of this, thanks to the full consolidation of the plants it acquired in 2007. Nemak reported a 2% increase in sales compared to the prior year, thanks to the consolidation for a full year of the production of the plants acquired in 2007. The company capitalized on its competitive advantages to obtain new contracts in the year. However, on a comparative basis, Nemak’s sales decreased since the U.S. financial and economic crisis resulted in a significant decline in automobile sales in that country. The impact could have been worse had it not been for Nemak´s market and customer diversification together with the flexibility of Nemak’s production system. Nemak was awarded 46 new contracts, Nemak won 46 production contracts during 2008 and launched 32 production programs.
