TOLEDO, Ohio, Nov. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Dana Holding Corporation
(NYSE: DAN) today announced its third-quarter 2008 results.
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/19990903/DANA )
Third-quarter developments included:
-- Sales of $1,929 million, a 9-percent decrease compared with 2007,
primarily because of lower vehicle production in North America;
-- Net loss of $271 million, including $123 million of non-cash goodwill
and other impairment charges. This compares with a third-quarter 2007 net
loss of $69 million;
-- Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and
restructuring (EBITDA) of $15 million, compared with $126 million in 2007; and
-- Strong cash balance of $1.0 billion and total liquidity of $1.3 billion
at September 30, 2008. Net debt was $380 million.
Additional Actions Planned
"The economic and market challenges we've faced all year were particularly
difficult in the third quarter," said Executive Chairman John Devine. "The
combination of lower industry volumes and peaking steel prices hit us sharply
this quarter.
"Dana is planning up to 10 additional plant closures in 2009 and 2010, and
we will reduce our workforce this year by 5,000 versus the previously
announced 3,000. We regret having to take such actions, but they are
necessary to size the company to lower industry volumes."
Three-Month Results
Third-quarter EBITDA of $15 million was $111 million below 2007 results
for the same period. Lower production and higher steel costs of $140 million
more than account for this reduction. Results also included higher pricing,
cost savings, and unfavorable currency changes.
At September 30, 2008, cash balances remained strong at $1.0 billion, with
available global liquidity of $1.3 billion. Despite lower sales and EBITDA,
free cash flow of a negative $151 million for the third quarter was about the
same as that during the same period in 2007.
Dana's liquidity has been strengthened by a $180 million draw-down in
October under its existing $650 million secured revolving credit facility.
Nine-Month Results
Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, were $6,574 million,
which compares to $6,564 million for the same period in 2007. Year to date,
the company reported net income of $274 million compared with a net loss of
$294 million for the same period in 2007. The nine-month 2008 results include
a net gain of $754 million recognized in connection with the company's
emergence from bankruptcy and application of fresh start accounting in
January.
Year-to-date EBITDA of $290 million compares to $373 million for the same
period in 2007, as the earnings reduction related to lower North American
vehicle production and higher steel costs more than offset cost reduction
actions and pricing improvements.
Outlook
Based on current production estimates, Dana expects full-year 2008 sales
of approximately $8,200 million and EBITDA of approximately $300 million.
"The second half of this year has been extremely challenging with sharply
lower North American vehicle production, volatile steel prices, and turmoil in
the financial markets," said Jim Yost, executive vice president and chief
financial officer. "With respect to our credit facility, Dana is in
compliance with financial covenants through September 30, 2008; however, we
will not be able to comply with these requirements, as presently structured,
at December 31, 2008. We expect to complete an amendment to the facility with
our lenders in the next few weeks."
In 2009 Dana expects to improve EBITDA by at least $150 million, primarily
through pricing actions and cost reductions, and is targeting break-even or
better free cash flow.
Devine added, "I am pleased with the progress our people have made in
rebuilding Dana, despite the difficult environment. We have much to do, but
our team is focused on the changes needed to reposition Dana for improved
profitability and growth."

Non-GAAP Measures
In connection with Dana's emergence from bankruptcy on January 31, 2008
and the application of fresh start accounting in accordance with the
provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants'
Statement of Position 90-7, the post-emergence results of the successor
company for the eight months ended September 30, 2008 and the pre-emergence
results of the predecessor company for the one month ended January 31, 2008
are presented separately as successor and predecessor results in the financial
statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP). This presentation is required by GAAP as the successor
company is considered to be a new entity, and the results of the new entity
reflect the application of fresh start accounting. For the readers'
convenience and interest in this earnings release, we have combined the
separate successor and predecessor periods to derive combined results for the
nine months ended September 30, 2008. The financial information accompanying
this release provides the separate successor and predecessor GAAP results for
the applicable periods, along with the combined results described above for
the first nine months of 2008.
This release refers to EBITDA, which we've defined to be earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and restructuring. EBITDA is a
non-GAAP financial measure, and the measure currently being used by Dana as
the primary measure of its reportable operating segment performance. EBITDA
was selected as the primary measure for operating segment performance as well
as a relevant measure of Dana's overall performance given the enhanced
comparability and usefulness after application of fresh start accounting. The
most significant impact to Dana's ongoing results of operations as a result of
applying fresh start accounting is higher depreciation and amortization. By
using EBITDA, which is a performance measure that excludes depreciation and
amortization, the comparability of results is enhanced. Management also
believes that EBITDA is an important measure since the financial covenants of
our primary debt agreements are EBITDA-based, and our management incentive
performance programs are based, in part, on EBITDA. Because it is a non-GAAP
measure, EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income or other
reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The financial information
accompanying this release provides a reconciliation of EBITDA for the periods
presented to the reported income (loss) from continuing operations before
income taxes, which is a GAAP measure.
