HAYES LEMMERZ INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Three and Nine Months Ended October 31, 2000 and 1999
(Unaudited)
(Millions of Dollars Unless Otherwise Stated)

(1)  Basis of Presentation

      The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management and in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of October 31, 2000, and January 31, 2000, and the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2000, and 1999 and cash flows for the nine months ended October 31, 2000, and 1999. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2000. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the year.

(2)  Summary of New Accounting Pronouncements

      In June 1998, June 1999 and June 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, SFAS 137, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities-Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133” and SFAS 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”. These Statements establish accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument (including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. These Statements require that changes in the derivative’s fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met.

      Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivative’s gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged item in the income statement, and requires that a company must formally document, designate, and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting. This accounting is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company will adopt this standard in its fiscal year 2001 and does not, at this time, anticipate a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations when adopted.

(3)  Inventories

      The major classes of inventory are as follows:

                   
October 31, January 31,
2000 2000


Raw Materials
  $ 68.4     $ 62.3  
Work-in-process
    60.4       55.9  
Finished goods
    72.4       57.4

  $ 201.2     $ 175.6

(4)  Property, plant and equipment

      The major classes of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

                   
October 31, January 31,
2000 2000


Land
  $ 29.8     $ 30.1

      1,407.7       1,447.2

    (299.1 )     (268.8 )
     
     
 
 
Net property, plant and equipment
  $ 1,108.6     $ 1,178.4  
     
     
 

(5)  Earnings per share

      SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share” (“EPS”), requires two calculations of earnings per share to be disclosed, basic EPS and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed using only the weighted average shares outstanding, while diluted EPS is computed considering the dilutive effect of options and warrants.

      Shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2000 and 1999, were as follows:

                                   
Three Months Nine Months
Ended Ended


2000 1999 2000 1999




Basic weighted average shares outstanding
    29,189       30,337       29,965       30,333  
Dilutive effect of options and warrants
    48       1,341       124       1,547  
     
     
     
     
 
 
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding
    29,237       31,678       30,089       31,880  
     
     
     
     
 

(6)  Comprehensive Income (Loss)

      SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is defined as all changes in a Company’s net assets except changes resulting from transactions with shareholders. It differs from net income in that certain items currently recorded to equity would be a part of comprehensive income.

      The components of comprehensive income (loss) for the nine months ended October 31, 2000 and 1999 are as follows:

                   
Oct. 31, Oct. 31,
2000 1999


Net Income (loss)
  $ (25.3 )   $ 49.5  
Cumulative translation adjustments
    6.4       (48.6 )
     
     
 
 
Total comprehensive income (loss)
  $ (18.9 )   $ 0.9  
     
     
 

(7)  Commitments and Contingencies

      The Company is party to various litigation. Management believes that the outcome of these lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated operations or financial condition of the Company.

(9)  Reclassifications

      Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

(10)  Guarantor and Nonguarantor Financial Statements

      The Company’s senior subordinated notes are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries. Certain other domestic subsidiaries and the foreign subsidiaries (the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”) do not guarantee the senior subordinated notes.

      The following condensed consolidating financial information presents:

        (1)  Condensed consolidating financial statements as of October 31, 2000, and January 31, 2000, and for the nine-month periods ended October 31, 2000, and 1999, of (a) Hayes Lemmerz International, Inc., the parent, (b) the guarantor subsidiaries, (c) the nonguarantor subsidiaries and (d) the Company on a consolidated basis, and
 
        (2)  Elimination entries necessary to consolidate Hayes Lemmerz International, Inc., the parent, with the guarantor and nonguarantor subsidiaries.

      Investments in foreign subsidiaries are accounted for by the parent on the equity method (domestic subsidiaries are accounted for by the parent on the cost method) for purposes of the consolidating presentation. The principal elimination entries eliminate investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended October 31, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended October 31, 1999

Net Sales

      The Company’s net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 were $558.3 million, a decrease of 6.7% as compared to net sales of $598.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Significant reductions in heavy truck production and softening in OEM light vehicle volumes in the United States have resulted in lower sales in the North American Commercial Highway, North American Cast Components and North American Wheel Groups. Increased sales in the European Wheel Groups were offset by the Euro weakening against the Dollar in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 1999.

Gross Profit

      The Company’s gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 decreased to $73.2 million or 13.1% of net sales as compared to $105.4 million or 17.6% of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1999. The Company’s third quarter gross profit margin was negatively impacted by the reduction in the North American heavy truck and OEM sales and production inefficiencies related to the volatile heavy truck and OEM production environment. In addition, gross margin was negatively impacted by the write off of $5.0 million in excess and obsolete inventories pursuant to capacity reductions and softening market conditions.

Marketing, General and Administrative

      Marketing, general and administrative expenses were $28.3 million or 5.1% of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 as compared to $21.8 million or 3.6% of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Marketing, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 were negatively impacted by the write off of $7.2 million principally associated with cancelled transactions, and an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts and severance costs due to market conditions.

Engineering and Product Development

      Engineering and product development costs were $3.6 million or 0.6% of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 as compared to $4.4 million or 0.7% of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1999. This improvement principally reflects the timing associated with recovery of engineering and development costs from our customers.

Other (Income) Expense

      Pursuant to its acquisition strategy in prior periods, the Company has been in the process of integrating operations as well as evaluating capacity, technology and personnel needs. In response to continued softening in the heavy truck and light vehicle markets, the Company accelerated this process and approved restructuring plans in the third quarter of fiscal 2000. In addition to the items discussed in Gross Profit and Marketing, General and Administrative categories above, impairment and restructuring charges totaling $75.6 million were recorded in the third quarter of fiscal 2000.

      Of the $75.6 million, $63.8 million was attributable to impairment of long-lived assets, principally excess and obsolete machinery and equipment which the Company intends to dispose of in the near future. Impairment was measured based on the estimated net proceeds from the disposal of such equipment.

      Restructuring charges consist of $6.7 million for severance benefits and $0.9 million for future lease costs of closed office facilities. These costs are all related primarily to 387 administrative and operations employees impacted by restructuring programs in Europe. There were no payments made in the third quarter of fiscal 2000.

      In addition, Other (Income) Expense includes $4.2 million for the write down of the Company’s investment in a joint venture in Venezuela and certain contractual agreements that have no future value.

Interest Expense

      Interest expense was $41.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 compared to $37.5 million for the same period of fiscal 1999. This increase was due primarily to the increase in interest rates and borrowings.

Nine Months Ended October 31, 2000 Compared to Nine Months Ended October 31, 1999

Net Sales

      The Company’s net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2000 were $1,695.9 million, a decrease of 2.0%, as compared to net sales of $1,730.8 million for the first nine months of fiscal 1999. This decrease was due to higher sales in the North American and European Wheel Groups offset by lower sales in the North American Commercial Highway and North American Components Groups due to softening marketing conditions and the weakening of the Euro against the Dollar by approximately 12%.

Gross Profit

      The Company’s gross profit for the first nine months of fiscal 2000 decreased to $259.5 million or 15.3% of net sales as compared to $305.6 million or 17.7% of net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1999. This decrease reflects the reduction in the North American heavy truck and OEM sales and production inefficiencies related to the volatile heavy truck and OEM production environment. In addition, gross margin was negatively impacted by the write off of $5.0 million in excess and obsolete inventories in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 pursuant to capacity reductions and softening market conditions.

Marketing, General and Administrative

      Marketing, general and administrative expenses were $76.8 million or 4.5% of net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2000 compared to $70.7 million or 4.1% of net sales for the same period of fiscal 1999. The increase in marketing, general and administrative expenses was attributable to $7.2 million in write offs in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 principally related to cancelled transactions, and an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts and severance costs due to market conditions.

Engineering and Product Development

      Engineering and product development costs were $13.0 million or 0.8% of net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2000 as compared to $15.6 million or 0.9% of net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1999.

Other (Income) Expense

      Pursuant to its acquisition strategy in prior periods, the Company has been in the process of integrating operations as well as evaluating capacity, technology and personnel needs. In response to continued softening in the heavy truck and light vehicle markets, the Company accelerated this process and approved restructuring plans in the third quarter of fiscal 2000.

These costs are all related primarily to 387 administrative and operations employees impacted by restructuring programs in Europe. There were no payments made in the third quarter of fiscal 2000.

      In addition, Other (Income) Expense includes $4.2 million for the write down of the Company’s investment in a joint venture in Venezuela and certain contractual agreements that have no future value.

Interest Expense

      Interest expense was $120.4 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2000 compared to $115.5 million for the same period of fiscal 1999. This increase was due primarily to the increase in interest rates and borrowings.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

      The Company’s operations used $58.5 million in cash in the first nine months of fiscal 2000, an increase of $95.1 million over the same period of fiscal 1999. This increase was due primarily to the timing of payments to suppliers and higher inventories.

      Capital expenditures for the first nine months of fiscal 2000 were $123.8 million. These expenditures were primarily for additional machinery and equipment to improve productivity and reduce costs, to meet demand for new vehicle platforms and to meet expected requirements for the Company’s products. The Company anticipates capital expenditures for fiscal 2000 will be less than $170.0 million.

      On February 3, 1999, the Company entered into a third amended and restated credit agreement (the “Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) with Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (“CIBC”) and Merrill Lynch Capital Corporation (“Merrill Lynch”), as managing agents. Pursuant to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, a syndicate of lenders agreed to lend to the Company up to $450 million in the form of a senior secured term loan facility and up to $650 million in the form of a senior secured revolving credit facility. Such term loan and revolving facilities are guaranteed by the Company and all of its existing and future material domestic subsidiaries. Such term loan and revolving facilities are secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company and its material domestic subsidiaries, now owned or later acquired, including a pledge of all of the shares of certain of the Company’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the shares of certain of the Company’s existing and future foreign subsidiaries. As of October 31, 2000 there was $399 million outstanding under the term loan facility and $386 million available under the revolving facility.

      On December 8, 2000, the Company reached agreement with its senior lenders to amend the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Pursuant to such agreement, financial covenants regarding the leverage ratio, the interest coverage ratio and the fixed charge coverage ratio were modified and a ratio of senior indebtedness to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization was added. In addition, an annual limit on capital expenditures was added, the stock repurchase authority was deleted and a cumulative limit on acquisitions was deleted. The text of the amendment agreement is filed as an exhibit to this Form 10-Q and is incorporated herein by reference.

      In April 1998, the Company entered into a three year agreement pursuant to which the Company and certain of its subsidiaries sold, and will continue to sell on an ongoing basis, a portion of their accounts receivables to a special purpose entity (“Funding Co.”), which is wholly owned by the Company. Accordingly, the Company and such subsidiaries, irrevocably and without recourse, transferred and will transfer substantially all of their U.S. dollar denominated trade accounts receivable to Funding Co. Funding Co. then sold and will sell such trade accounts receivable to an independent issuer of receivable-backed commercial paper. The Company has collection and administrative responsibilities with respect to all the receivables which are sold. Receivables sold at October 31, 2000 total $145.8 million.

      During the second quarter, the Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to an aggregate of $30 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Through October 31, 2000, the Company repurchased approximately 1.9 million shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $26.3 million.

      At October 31, 2000, management believes that the Company was in compliance with the various covenants under the agreements pursuant to which it has or may borrow money. Management expects that the Company will remain in compliance with these covenants, as modified by the December 8, 2000 amendment
