Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
         ------------------------------------
  
         On November 25, 1997 a newly-formed subsidiary of LDM Technologies,
Inc., a Michigan corporation ("Registrant") named Anja Verwaltungsgesellschaft
mbH (the "Purchaser"), pursuant to the terms of an Acquisition Agreement dated
November 12, 1997 ("Agreement") between Aeroquip-Vickers International GmbH 
("Aeroquip") and Purchaser filed as Exhibit 1 to this report on Form 8-K, 
purchased substantially all of the operating assets (consisting of plant,
equipment and inventory and located in Beienheim, Germany) of ASG  Beienheim
(the "Company"), a unit of the Aeroquip-Sterling division of Aeroquip. 

         The aggregate purchase price paid for the assets was $8.6 million cash,
subject to certain closing adjustments, and in addition the Purchaser assumed
certain liabilities of the Company in the approximate amount of $2.5 million.
The funds required for the purchase price were acquired by the Registrant under
its Senior Credit Facility with Bank America Business Credit, Inc., as agent,
for itself and a group of banks.

         There was no material relationship between Aeroquip or any of its
affiliates and the Registrant or any of its affiliates, any director or officer
of the Registrant, or any associate of any such director or officer.

         The Company is engaged in the business of manufacturing and
distributing molded plastic components for sale principally to German automobile
manufacturers and their suppliers. The business and operations of the Company
will be continued by the Registrant substantially as they were conducted prior
to the acquisition.

                         Report of Independent Auditors



To the Owners
ASG Beienheim

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of ASG Beienheim as of December
31, 1996, and the related statements of income, owners' equity and cash flows
for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of ASG Beienheim as of December
31, 1996, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then
ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.

                        Notes to the Financial Statements

                                December 31, 1996





1.     OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial statements present the operations of ASG Beienheim
("the Company"). The Company is engaged in the manufacturing and sale of molded
plastic components for sale principally to several German automobile
manufacturers and their suppliers. The Company is a unit of the
Aeroquip-Sterling ("Sterling") division of Aeroquip-Vickers GmbH, formerly
Trinova GmbH ("Trinova").

Amounts related to the Company have been determined by segregating amounts
related to the business of the Company from the other unit of Sterling. The
determination of such amounts was made by reference to specific assets and
liabilities of the Company in the case of fixed assets, accounts receivable,
inventories, prepaid tooling, advances from customers and accrued pension
liabilities; by reference to specific revenue and expense accounts of the
Company with respect to sales and costs of sales; or in the case of certain
accrued liabilities and selling, general and administrative expenses, by
allocations based on sales, purchases or headcount, as considered appropriate.
In the opinion of management these allocation methods are reasonable.

As an operating unit of Trinova, the Company is not individually subject to
income taxes, which are payable on a Trinova level. The income tax provision in
the accompanying financial statements has been calculated on a separate-return
basis.

The accompanying financial statements reflect certain overhead costs allocated
by Trinova to the Company. Under an agreement with Sterling and Trinova, such
costs are not paid by the Company. Such costs include allocations of legal,
accounting, insurance, management information systems, and other corporate
overhead costs incurred at the Trinova level, and are included in Selling,
General and Administrative expenses of the Company.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.



                                                                            6

                                December 31, 1996



CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments which subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk
consist principally of trade receivables. Automotive manufacturers comprise a
significant portion of the Company's customer base. Trade receivables from the
Company's four largest customers represented approximately 90% of the Company's
total trade receivables as of December 31, 1996.

The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers' financial
condition and generally does not require collateral, consistent with industry
practice.

INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, using the first-in, first-out
method, or market.

PREPAID TOOLING

Molds used in Company operations are requisitioned by the Company's customers
and are principally purchased from mold designers who design and construct the
molds under Company supervision. Upon delivery and acceptance of the molds,
title is passed to customers and related revenue is recognized.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

Depreciable property, stated at cost, is depreciated over the estimated useful
lives of the assets, using principally straight-line methods as follows:

                                                         Estimated useful

affiliated entity. Such allocated expenses totalled approximately $1,403,000 for
the year ended December 31, 1996.

7.     DEFERRED GAIN

In 1988, Trinova entered into a sale-leaseback transaction with respect to the
Beienheim manufacturing facility which resulted in a deferred gain approximating
$1,742,000. This amount is being amortized ratably to income over the life of
the related lease, which expires in 2005. The 1996 amortization approximated
$100,000, and is included as a reduction to product cost of sales.

8.     EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

LONG-TERM SERVICE RESERVE

Consistent with industry practice in Germany, the Company makes voluntary
donations and payments to employees after a certain number of years of service
and upon the leave for retirement. A reserve is calculated by management for
estimated future costs associated with this practice, taking into account the
estimated likelihood of payment on a discounted present value basis.

PENSION LIABILITIES

The Company maintains an unfunded defined-benefit pension plan with respect to
certain of its employees. The related pension liability relates to 85 active
employees.

Pension liabilities as of December 31, 1996 have been calculated applying an
interest rate of 7% and assuming future wage/salary increases of 3% and future
increases of pension payments of 2.5%.

Net pension cost includes the following components:

the Kenco Acquisition and the Beienheim acquisition as if such transactions had
occurred on September 30, 1996. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated
balance sheet at September 28, 1997 gives effect to the Kenco Acquisition and
the Beienheim Acquisition as if such acquisitions had occurred on that date. The

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
