Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated 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 the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three and nine-month periods ended June
27,1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ending September 26, 1999. For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto in the Company's annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 27, 1998.
2. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES
On September 30, 1997, the Company acquired all outstanding capital stock of
Kenco Plastics, Inc. (Michigan) and Kenco Plastics, Inc. (Kentucky) and the
business and substantially all operating assets of Narens Design and
Engineering, Inc. for approximately $27.1 million in cash. The acquisition was
financed with additional borrowings under the existing Senior Credit Facility.
On November 25, 1997, the Company acquired the business and certain net assets
and assumed certain liabilities comprising the `Beienheim' plant of Aeroquip
Corporation for approximately $9.7 million in cash. The acquisition was financed
with additional borrowings under the existing Senior Credit Facility.
On February 6, 1998, LDM acquired the stock of Huron Plastics Group, Inc. and
substantially all of the operating assets of Tadim, Inc. (collectively known as
"HPG") for $69.0 million in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities. The
transaction was funded with proceeds from a $66.0 million dollar term loan
issued by the Company's senior lender, and additional borrowings under the
existing Senior Credit Facility.
Effective as of December 31, 1998, the Company entered into a joint venture (DBM
joint venture) that is 49% owned by the Company, and 51% owned by an independent
third party. The Company sold the Kenco business and most of its net current
assets to the joint venture at an amount equal to the net book value of the net
current assets. The sales price of the net current assets approximated $8.8
million.
The Company is leasing all machinery and equipment of the Kenco business to the
joint venture, and is subleasing to the joint venture all real properties in the
Kenco operations.
Under the terms of the agreement, the Company provided a subordinated $1.8
million loan to the joint venture and guaranteed $1.0 million of the joint
venture line of credit borrowings. As a result of those terms, and the
relatively small amount of equity contributed to the joint venture by the
independent third party, the Company retained substantially all of the risks of
ownership. The investment is treated as an equity investment for accounting
purposes, but the Company will record 100% of the joint venture losses as equity
losses, if any, up to its investment, subordinated loan and guarantee amounts.
On April 15, 1999, all of the assets and liabilities of GL Industries of
Indiana, Inc. (d/b/a Como Products), a 75% owned subsidiary of the Company, were
sold to New GLI, Inc., an Indiana corporation, which is now doing business as
"Como Products." A new independent partner joined the new business (New GLI) and
purchased all but 36.75% of the Company's stake in New GLI for a minimal amount.
Under terms of the purchase agreement, the Company accepted a subordinated note
from New GLI for approximately $0.5 million, which represents previous loans,
accrued interest and working capital advances from the Company to Como. The note
has been fully reserved on the Company's books.

<PAGE> 8
The Company's ownership percentage in New GLI has become less than 50%. As a
result, New GLI's results are reported as equity earnings. Como's net sales and
net loss for the year ended September 27, 1998 were $18.1 million and $1.5
million, respectively. Como's net sales and net income for the six month period
ended March 28, 1999 were $8.7 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The
Company wrote its equity investment down to zero during fiscal year 1998, due to
Como's operating losses and a capital deficiency.
The pro forma unaudited results of operations for the nine months ended June 27,
1999 and June 28, 1998, assuming consummation of the purchases, issuance of the
debt, formation of the DBM joint venture, and sale of Como Products, as
described above had occurred on September 30, 1997, are as follows:

There have been no significant changes in commitments and contingencies from the
matters described in footnote 13 of the Company's consolidated financial
statements as of and for the fiscal year ended September 27, 1998.
4. SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTOR INFORMATION
The $110 million 10 3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007, the Senior Credit
Facility, and the standby letter of credit with respect to the $8.8 million
Multi-Option Adjustable Rate Notes are obligations of LDM Technologies, Inc.,
and are guaranteed fully, unconditionally and jointly and severally by LDM
Technologies Company, ("LDM Canada") and certain holding companies (LDM Holdings
L.L.C., and LDM Canada Limited Partnership). Non-guarantor subsidiaries consist
of LDM Germany ("Beienheim"), a wholly owned subsidiary.
Supplemental consolidating financial information of LDM Technologies, Inc., the
guarantor subsidiaries, and the nonguarantor subsidiaries is presented below.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in this report, the words
"anticipate," believe," "estimate," and "expect" and similar expressions are
generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned
that any forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the intent,
belief or current expectations of the Company or its management, are not
guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and that
the actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking
statements as a result of various factors including, but not limited to: (i)
general economic conditions in the markets in which the Company operates; (ii)
fluctuations in worldwide or regional automobile and light and heavy truck
production, (iii) labor disputes involving the Company or its significant
customers; (iv) changes in practices and/or policies of the Company's
significant customers toward outsourcing automotive components and systems; (v)
foreign currency and exchange fluctuations; (vi) factors affecting the ability
of the Company or its key suppliers to resolve Year 2000 issues in a timely
manner; and (vii) other risks detailed from time to time in the Company's
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company does not intend
to update these forward-looking statements.
OVERVIEW
The Company's pre-tax financial results for the quarter and nine months ended
June 27, 1999 are more favorable than the same periods in 1998. This is the
result of a strike at one of its major customers during 1998, and improved
operations in its North American facilities during 1999, offset by poor results
from its facility in Beienheim, Germany.
RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS
QUARTER ENDED JUNE 27, 1999 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED JUNE 28, 1998
NET SALES: Net sales for the three-month period ended June 27, 1999 ("third
quarter 1999") were $143.2 million, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 0.7%, from
the three-month period ended June 28, 1998 ("third quarter 1998"). Third quarter
1999 net sales were comprised of $120.1 million of automotive product sales, and
$23.1 million of mold sales. The sales decline is primarily the result of the
DBM joint venture described previously herein, offset by a strike at a major
customer, which resulted in estimated lost product sales of $6.5 million during
1998.
GROSS MARGIN: Gross margin was $24.8 million or 17.3% of net sales for the third
quarter of 1999. Third quarter 1999 gross margin related to product sales was
$24.1 million or 20.0% of net product sales compared to $21.9 million or 17.6%
of net product sales for the third quarter of 1998. The increase in gross margin
related to product sales is the result of improved operations at the Company's
North American facilities and the sale of the Company's blowmolding division to
the DBM Technologies joint venture offset by poor results at the Company's
Beienheim, Germany facility, and a strike at a major customer during 1998. The
strike resulted in estimated lost gross margin of $1.8 million. If the strike
had not occurred, third quarter 1998 estimated gross margin related to product
sales would have been $23.7 million or 18.1% of net product sales.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE (SG&A) EXPENSES: SG&A expenses for third
quarter 1999 were $14.6 million, or 10.2% of net sales, compared to $16.3
million, or 11.3% of net sales, for third quarter 1998. The decrease in SG&A as
a percentage of net sales was the result of continued synergies as recent
acquisitions are melded into the Company's internal structure.
INTEREST EXPENSE: Interest expense was $5.1 million for third quarter 1999
compared to $5.4 million for third quarter of 1998. The decreased interest
expense was primarily due to the sales of LDM's interests in Como Products and
the Company's blowmolding division.
INCOME TAXES: The provision for income taxes for third quarter 1999 was $1.8
million with an effective tax rate of 40.3%, as compared to $1.3 million with an
effective tax rate of 47.1% for third quarter 1998. The rate difference relates
principally to certain nondeductible expenses, and a change in the estimated tax
rate related to the Company's Beienheim, Germany facility, during third quarter
1999.

NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 27, 1999 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 28, 1998
NET SALES: Net sales for the nine-month period ended June 27, 1999 ("Year to
date June 1999") were $415.0 million, an increase of $44.6 million, or 12.0%,
from the nine-month period ended June 28, 1998 ("Year to date June 1998"). Year
to date June 1999 net sales were comprised of approximately $355.8 million of
automotive product sales, $7.8 million of consumer and other product sales, and
$51.4 million of mold sales. The sales growth is primarily the result of
acquisitions described previously herein, and increased mold sales related to
major launches scheduled for the Company's fiscal fourth quarter. This growth
was offset slightly by a strike at a major customer during 1998, which resulted
in estimated lost product sales of $6.5 million.
GROSS MARGIN: Gross margin was $71.5 million or 17.2% of net sales for Year to
date June 1999. Year to date June 1999 gross margin related to product sales was
$71.2 million or 19.6% of net product sales compared to $59.4 million or 17.7%
of net product sales for Year to date June 1998. The increase was the result of
improved operations at the Company's North American facilities and the sale of
the Company's blowmolding division to the DBM Technologies joint venture, offset
by poor results at the Company's Beienheim, Germany facility, and a strike at a
major customer during 1998. The strike resulted in estimated lost gross margin
of $1.8 million. If the strike had not occurred, Year to date June 1998
estimated gross margin related to product sales would have been $61.2 million or
17.9% of net product sales.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE (SG&A) EXPENSES: SG&A expenses for Year to
date June 1999 were $45.4 million, or 10.9% of net sales, compared to $42.0
million, or 11.3% of net sales, for Year to Date June 1998.
INTEREST EXPENSE: Interest expense was $16.0 million for Year to date June 1999
compared to $14.4 million for Year to date June 1998. The increased interest
expense was primarily due to the incurrence of additional debt related to the
acquisitions, offset by divestitures, described elsewhere herein.
INCOME TAXES: The provision for income taxes for Year to date June 1999 was $4.8
million with an effective tax rate of 67.3.%, as compared to $2.9 million with
an effective tax rate of 48.3% for Year to date June 1998. The rate difference
relates principally to certain nondeductible expenses, and a change in the
estimated tax rate related to the Company's Beienheim, Germany facility due to
operational losses to date.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's principal capital requirements are to fund working capital needs,
to meet required debt obligations, and to fund capital expenditures for facility
maintenance and expansion. The Company believes that its future cash flow from
operations, combined with its revolving credit availability, will be sufficient
to meet its planned debt service, capital requirements and internal growth
opportunities. Potential growth from acquisitions will be funded from a variety
of sources, including cash flow from operations and additional indebtedness. As
of June 27, 1999, the Company had $172.2 million of long-term debt outstanding,
$40.6 million of revolving loans and current maturities of long-term debt
outstanding and $19.2 million of borrowing availability under its revolving
credit facilities.
Cash provided by operating activities Year to date June 1999 was $24.4 million
compared to $16.9 million Year to date June 1998. The increase in cash provided
by operating activities was the result of the sales growth and improved
operating results described above.
Capital expenditures Year to date June 1999 were $15.7 million compared to $7.7
million Year to date June 1998. The Company believes its capital expenditures
will be approximately $18.0 million in fiscal year 1999. The majority of the
Company's fiscal 1999 capital expenditures will be used to facilitate new
programs launching in fiscal 1999, and continue installation of a new
enterprise-wide information system at all plant facilities. However, the
Company's capital expenditures may be greater than currently anticipated as the
result of new business opportunities.
The Company's liquidity is affected by both the cyclical nature of its business
and levels of net sales to its major customers. The Company's ability to meet
its working capital and capital expenditure requirements and debt obligations
will depend on its future operating performance, which will be affected by
prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors,
certain of which are beyond its control. However, the Company believes that its
existing borrowing ability and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to
meet its liquidity requirements in the foreseeable future.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE YEAR 2000 ISSUE AND THE NATURE AND EFFECTS OF THE
YEAR 2000 ON INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT) AND NON-IT SYSTEMS
The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four digits to define the applicable year. Any of the
Company's computer programs or hardware that have date-sensitive software or
embedded chips may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the
year 2000. This could result in a system failure or miscalculations causing
disruptions of operations, including, among other things, a temporary inability
to process transactions, send invoices, or engage in similar normal business
activities.
Based on recent assessments, the Company has determined that it will be required
to modify or replace significant portions of its software and certain hardware
so that those systems will properly utilize dates beyond December 31, 1999. The
Company presently believes that with modifications or replacements of existing
software and certain hardware, the Year 2000 Issue can be mitigated. However, if
such modifications and replacements are not made, or are not completed timely,
the Year 2000 Issue could have a material impact on the operations of the
Company.
The Company's plan to resolve the Year 2000 Issue involves the following four
phases: assessment, remediation, testing, and implementation. To date, the
Company has fully completed its assessment of all systems that could be
significantly affected by the Year 2000 Issue. The completed assessment
indicated that most of the Company's significant information technology systems
could be affected, particularly the general ledger, billing, and inventory
systems. That assessment also indicated that software and hardware (embedded
chips) used in production and manufacturing systems (hereafter also referred to
as operating equipment) is at risk. Affected systems include automated assembly
lines and related robotic technologies used in various aspects of the
manufacturing process. In addition, the Company has gathered information about
the Year 2000 compliance status of its significant suppliers and subcontractors
and continues to monitor their compliance.
STATUS OF PROGRESS IN BECOMING YEAR 2000 COMPLIANT, INCLUDING TIMETABLE FOR
COMPLETION OF EACH REMAINING PHASE
With regard to its information technology exposures, to date the Company has
completed its remediation phase as well as testing and implementation, as of
July 31, 1999.
The remediation of operating equipment is significantly more difficult than the
remediation of the information technology systems because some of the
manufacturers of that equipment are no longer in business. The Company is
complete in the remediation phase of its operating equipment. Testing of this
equipment is also more difficult than the testing of information technology
systems; as a result, the Company is 75% complete with the testing of its
remediated operating equipment. Once testing is complete, the operating
equipment will be ready for immediate use. Testing and implementation of
affected equipment is expected to be complete by September 30, 1999.
NATURE AND LEVEL OF IMPORTANCE OF THIRD PARTIES AND THEIR EXPOSURE TO THE YEAR
2000
The Company's accounts receivable system interfaces directly with significant
customers. The Company has completed work with these customers to ensure that
the Company's systems that interface directly with third parties are Year 2000
compliant. The Company has completed its remediation efforts on these systems
and is 100% complete with the testing phase. Implementation is 75% complete and
is expected to be complete by July 31, 1999. The Company understands that these
key customers are in the process of making their accounts payable systems Year
2000 compliant. Each customer queried believed that its payables system would be
Year 2000 compliant by the end of 1999.
19
<PAGE> 20
The Company has queried its significant suppliers and subcontractors that do not
share information systems with the Company (external agents). To date, the
Company is not aware of any external agent with a Year 2000 issue that would
materially impact the Company's results of operations, liquidity, or capital
resources. However, the Company has no means of ensuring that external agents
will be Year 2000 compliant by the end of 1999. The inability of external agents
to complete their Year 2000 resolution process in a timely fashion could
materially impact the Company. The effect of non-compliance by external agents
is not determinable.
COST
The Company will utilize both internal and external resources to reprogram, or
replace, test, and implement the software and operating equipment for Year 2000
modifications. The total cost of the Year 2000 project is estimated at $7
million, and is being funded through operating cash flows. To date, the Company
has incurred approximately $5.6 million ($1.5 million expensed and $4.1 million
capitalized for new systems and equipment), related to all phases of the Year
2000 project. The remaining $1.4 million of estimated project costs relates to
repair of hardware and software, and implementation consulting fees which will
be expensed as incurred.
RISKS
Management of the Company believes that it has an effective program in place to
resolve the Year 2000 issue in a timely manner. As noted above, the Company has
not yet completed all necessary phases of the Year 2000 program. In the event
that the Company does not complete any additional phases, the Company would
experience difficulties taking customer orders, manufacturing and shipping
products, invoicing customers, or collecting payments. In addition, disruptions
in the economy generally resulting from Year 2000 issues could also materially
adversely affect the Company. The amount of potential liability and lost revenue
cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
CONTINGENCY PLAN
The Company has contingency plans for certain critical applications, and is
working on such plans for others. These contingency plans involve, among other
actions, manual workarounds, increasing inventories, and adjusting staffing
strategies.
