ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

   The Company hereby files the following information:

1.     EARNINGS PER SHARE INFORMATION
       ------------------------------

   In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings Per Share."  SFAS No.
128 replaced the previously reported primary and fully diluted earnings per
share with basic and diluted earnings per share.  Unlike primary earnings per
share, basic earnings per share excludes the potential dilutive effects of
common stock equivalents such as stock options, warrants and convertible
securities.  Diluted earnings per share is very similar to the previously
reported fully diluted earnings per share.  The Company adopted SFAS No. 128
effective for the quarter ended December 31, 1997.

   The Company has restated certain of its Selected Financial Data to reflect
the effect of SFAS No. 128 as follows:

     (a) As a result of the filing of this Current Report on Form 8-K, the
  information set forth below shall supersede the line item entitled "Earnings
  per share" in the table entitled "Item 6. Selected Financial Data" appearing
  on page 9 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
  ended June 30, 1997:

</TABLE>
 
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED
  SEPTEMBER 30, 1996

  Sales.   Total sales decreased 5% to $629.0 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 from $659.0 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1996. Third-party sales also decreased 4% to $623.7 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 from $649.0 million for the nine months ended September
30, 1996, primarily due to lower airbag sales in the small car sales market,
phase down of seat cushion sales to Morton, unfavorable foreign exchange due to
strong dollar and lower pricing due to the competitive market place.
Intercompany sales decreased 47% to $5.3 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 from $10.0 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1996, primarily due to lower airbag sales to AlliedSignal Japan (which sells to
Isuzu) due to weaker market position as a result of roll-over concern and new
competition in the sport utility vehicle market.

  Cost of Goods Sold.   Costs of goods sold decreased 3% to $563.3 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $580.5 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996. This decrease was as a result primarily of cost
reduction efforts implemented during the year, which were offset by the impact
of lower customer pricing and the unfavorable effect of foreign exchange as
noted above.

  Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.   Selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased 3% to $29.1 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 from $30.0 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1996, primarily reflecting lower expenses associated with the lower sales
volume.

                                      -4-
<PAGE>
 
  Taxes on Income.   The effective tax rate was 41% for both of the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 and 1996. The difference between the effective tax rate
of 41% and the federal rate of 35% is primarily due to foreign and state taxes.


 FISCAL 1996 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1995

  Sales.   Total sales increased 13% to $873.3 million in 1996 from $771.8
million in 1995. Third-party sales increased 13% to $862.2 million in 1996 from
$761.6 million in 1995, primarily due to higher seat belt sales in the North
America truck market and a full year of airbag sales to Opel and Fiat which were
launched in September 1995. Intercompany sales increased 9% to $11.1 million in
1996 from $10.2 million in 1995, primarily due to higher production volumes.

  Cost of Goods Sold.   Cost of goods sold increased 14% to $780.8 million in
1996 from $683.1 million in 1995. This increase primarily reflected increased
costs associated with the increase in sales volume.

  Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.   Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased 25% to $38.9 million in 1996 from $31.2
million in 1995, primarily reflecting increased marketing efforts in Europe and
Asia and a larger allocation of corporate charges.

  Taxes on Income.   The higher effective tax rate of 38% in 1996 compared to
37% in 1995 was primarily due to increased earnings in foreign jurisdictions
with an overall higher effective tax rate.


 FISCAL 1995 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1994

  Sales.   Total sales increased 21% to $771.8 million in 1995 from $637.6
million in 1994. Third-party sales increased by 19% to $761.6 million in 1995
from $637.6 million in 1994, primarily due to the growth from acquisitions of
the seatbelt division of Gilardini S.p.A. in February 1994 and General Safety
Corporation in November 1994 and the launching of airbag programs in North
America and Italy. Intercompany sales were $10.2 million in 1995 primarily
relating to sales to AlliedSignal Japan (which sells to Isuzu).

  Cost of Goods Sold.   Cost of goods sold increased 19% to $683.1 million in
1995 from $574.8 million in 1994. The increase primarily reflected increases in
sales volume as described above.

  Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.   Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased 32% to $31.2 million in 1995 from $25.4
million in 1994 and primarily related to the increase in sales volume.

  Taxes on Income.   The lower effective tax rate of 37% in 1995 compared to 39%
in 1994 was primarily due to income in lower tax jurisdictions and investment
tax credits realized in Italy.

                                                                    ------------




                      UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA

  The following unaudited pro forma financial statements are based on the
historical financial statements of (i) the Company, (ii) the business acquired
in the 1997 Acquisitions (as defined below) and (iii) the safety restraints
systems businesses of AlliedSignal Inc. ("SRS"), which the Company acquired on
October 30, 1997 (the "SRS Acquisition").  The unaudited pro forma condensed
consolidated statement of earnings for the twelve months ended June 30,1997
gives effect to the SRS Transactions (as defined below), the 1997 Acquisitions
and the Refinancing of the Bridge Credit Facility (as defined below) as if they
had occurred on July 1, 1996.  The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated
statement of earnings for the nine months ended March 31, 1998 gives effect to
the SRS Transactions and the Refinancing of the Bridge Credit Facility as if
they had occurred on July 1, 1997.

  The 1997 Acquisitions consist of the following: (i) the Company's acquisition
of certain assets and liabilities of the North American steering wheel
operations ("USS") of United Technologies, which was completed on October 25,
1996; and (ii) the Company's acquisition of the Custom Trim group of companies
("Custom Trim"), which was completed on February 25, 1997.  All acquisitions,
including the SRS Acquisition, have been accounted for using the purchase method
of accounting.

  On October 30, 1997, the Company consummated the SRS Acquisition.  The Company
financed the SRS Acquisition with (i) borrowings under a $900.0 million bridge
credit facility (the "Bridge Credit Facility"), (ii) the proceeds received in
connection with the issuance and sale of $115.0 million of Series A Preference
Shares to Siemens Aktiengeselellschaft ("Siemens") (the "Siemens Investment")
and (iii) the proceeds from the issuance and sale of $200.0 million of Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (the "PSCC Financing"), which was
subsequently redeemed with the proceeds received in connection with the issuance
and sale of $257.7 million of the Company's 6.50% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures due 2027 to BTI Capital Trust which, concurrently therewith, sold
$250 million aggregate liquidation amount of its 6.50% Convertible Trust
Preferred Securities (which are guaranteed by the Company) (the "Preferred
Securities") in a private transaction under Rule 144A under the Securities Act
of 1933 (the "Preferred Securities Offering").  The SRS Acquisition, the initial
borrowings under the Bridge Credit Facility, the Siemens Investment, the
Preferred Securities Offering and the application of the proceeds therefrom are
referred to herein collectively as the "SRS Transactions."

  On April 28, 1998, the Company consummated the issuance and sale of $330.0
million of its 9 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008 (the "Notes") in a
private transaction under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 (the
"Offering").  Concurrently therewith, the Company entered into a new $675.0
million revolving credit facility with certain lenders (the "New Credit
Facility").  The Company used the net proceeds from the Offering, together with
borrowings under the New Credit Facility, to, among other things, repay all
amounts outstanding under the Bridge Credit Facility (the "Refinancing of the
Bridge Credit Facility").

  The unaudited pro forma financial statements have been prepared using the
purchase method of accounting, whereby the total cost of the SRS Acquisition and
the 1997 Acquisitions has been allocated to the tangible and intangible assets
acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their respective fair values at the
effective date of such acquisitions.  The allocations with respect to the SRS
Acquisition are based on studies and valuations that have not yet been
completed.  Accordingly, such allocations are preliminary and subject to
revisions.
<PAGE>
 
  As part of the purchase price allocation for the SRS Acquisition, the Company
evaluated the in-process research and development of SRS.  Under generally
accepted accounting principles, if the technological feasibility of the acquired
technology has not been established and the technology has no future alternative
uses, such in-process research and development must be written-off.
Accordingly, the Company wrote off $77.5 million of acquired technology that has
not been established as technologically feasible during the three months ended
December 31, 1997 (the "R&D Write-Off").

  During the three months ended December 31, 1997, the Company formulated a
repositioning program designed to reduce operating costs and increase
productivity (the "Repositioning Program").  The Repositioning Program consists
primarily of a 25% planned reduction in the Company's global workforce (or
approximately 4,900 employees) through the elimination of redundant and
overlapping positions resulting from recent acquisitions, the consolidation of
the Company's manufacturing, sales and engineering facilities primarily in North
America and Europe through the closing of approximately 50% (or 32) of its
manufacturing facilities and 33% (or 10) of its sales and engineering facilities
and the disposal of certain non-core assets.  In connection with the
Repositioning Program, the Company incurred a $244.0 million repositioning
charge during the three months ended December 31, 1997 (the "Repositioning
Charge").  In addition, during the three months ended December 31, 1997, the
Company incurred a $28.4 million charge against cost of sales for inventory and
long-term customer contracts relating to manufacturing processes that will be
exited (the "COS Charge").

  The following unaudited pro forma financial statements do not purport to
represent what the Company's results of operations or financial condition would
have been had the SRS Transactions, the 1997 Acquisitions and the Refinancing of
the Bridge Credit Facility occurred on the dates indicated or to predict the
Company's results of operations or financial condition in the future.  The
unaudited pro forma financial statements give effect only to the adjustments set
forth in the accompanying notes and do not reflect any other benefits
anticipated by management as a result of the SRS Acquisition and the 1997
Acquisition and the implementation of its business strategy.

(j) Assuming that the SRS Transactions and the Refinancing of the Bridge Credit
    Facility had occurred as of the first day of the respective periods,
    unamortized fees relating to the Bridge Credit Facility and the credit
    facility that it replaced would have been recorded as an extraordinary loss,
    net of tax benefit.
  
    In July 1996, the Company acquired Gallino Plasturgia, S.r.1. ("Gallino"), a
    manufacturer of steering wheels and plastic interior and exterior parts
    based in Italy, for $74 million in cash and the assumption of $52 million of
    liabilities. During the three months ended June 30, 1997, the Company
    committed to a plan to dispose of the plastic interior and exterior parts
    business (the "Gallino Disposition") and is currently in negotiations with a
    third party relating to the sale of this business. The following table sets
    forth the adjustments necessary to exclude the results of operations
    attributable to the assets being disposed of in connection with the Gallino
    Disposition:

                 CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF EARNINGS (CONTINUED)


(k) Earnings per share have been adjusted to conform to the provisions of SFAS
    No. 128.

(l) The pro forma basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding
    does not include the impact of the conversion by Siemens of 4,883,226 of its
    Series A Preference Shares into an equal number of shares of Common Stock,
    which occurred on January 20, 1998. The pro forma diluted weighted average
    number of common shares outstanding includes the impact of converting such
    Series A Preference Shares into Common Stock as of the beginning of the
    period for the twelve months ended June 30, 1997, but are not included in
    the nine months ended  March 31, 1998 because they are anti-dilutive.

(m) For purposes of computing the ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges
    and preferred stock dividends, earnings consist of earnings before income
    taxes and extraordinary items plus combined fixed charges and preferred
    stock dividends. Combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends
    consist of interest expense, whether expensed or capitalized, amortization
    of debt issuance costs, an estimated portion of rental expense that is
    representative of the interest factor in such rentals and distributions on
    the Preferred Securities (which are calculated on the basis of the amount of
    pre-tax income required to pay such distributions). Earnings were
    insufficient to cover combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends
    by $396.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 1998. The ratio of
    earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends for the
    nine months ended March 31, 1998 reflects the Repositioning Charge, the R&D
    Write-Off and the COS Charge.

(n) The BREED statement of earnings for the nine months ended March 31, 1998
    includes the results of operations for the 1997 Acquisitions for the entire
    period.

(o) Represents SRS's results of operations for the four months ended October 30,
    1997, the date of acquisition.
