TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Description of Business
      TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is among the world’s largest and most diversified suppliers of automotive systems, modules and components to global automotive original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and related aftermarkets. The Company conducts substantially all of its operations through subsidiaries. These operations primarily encompass the design, manufacture and sale of active and passive safety related products. Active safety related products principally refer to vehicle dynamic controls (primarily braking and steering), and passive safety related products principally refer to occupant restraints (primarily air bags and seat belts) and crash sensors. The Company is primarily a “Tier 1” supplier (a supplier which sells directly to OEMs), with over 85% of its sales in 2004 made directly to OEMs.
2. Basis of Presentation
      These unaudited 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 December 31, 2004, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 23, 2005. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
      The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. These financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations of the Company. Operating results for the three months ended April 1, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2005.
      The Company follows a fiscal calendar that ends on December 31. However, each fiscal quarter has three periods consisting of one five week period and two four week periods. Each week ends on a Friday with the possible exception of the final week of the year, which always ends on December 31. As such, the three months ended April 1, 2005 contained five additional calendar days as compared to the three months ended March 26, 2005.
      Earnings per share. Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net earnings by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the weighted average impact of all potentially dilutive securities from the date of issuance. Actual weighted average shares outstanding used in calculating earnings per share were:
                 
    Three Months Ended

Effect of dilutive securities
    2.0       3.5  
             
Diluted shares outstanding
    101.0       97.8  
             
      Warranties. Product warranty liabilities are recorded based upon management estimates including such factors as the written agreement with the customer, the length of the warranty period, the historical performance of the product and likely changes in performance of newer products and the mix and volume of products sold. The liabilities are reviewed on a regular basis and adjusted to reflect actual experience.

      The following table presents the movement in the product warranty liability for the three months ended April 1, 2005 and for the three months ended March 26, 2004:

      Stock-based compensation. Stock options under employee compensation plans are accounted for using the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” (“APB 25”) and related interpretations. Pursuant to APB 25, no stock-based employee compensation expense is reflected in net earnings if options granted have exercise prices greater than or equal to the market value of the underlying common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”) on the date of grant.
      The following table illustrates the effect on net earnings as if the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” had been applied to stock-based employee compensation:

TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
      Recent accounting pronouncements. On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” (“SFAS 123(R)”) which is a revision of FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” SFAS 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” (“APB 25”) and amends FASB Statement No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows.” Generally, the approach in SFAS 123(R) is similar to the approach described in SFAS 123. However, SFAS 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure, as was allowed under APB 25, will no longer be an alternative. On April 14, 2005, the SEC issued a rule delaying the effective date of SFAS 123(R) to annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. In light of this deferral, the Company is continuing to analyze the impact of the adoption of SFAS 123(R), and has not yet finalized its expected adoption date. Had we adopted SFAS 123(R) in prior periods, the impact of that standard would have approximated the impact of SFAS 123 as previously described.
3. Subsequent Event
      On May 3, 2005, the Company repurchased approximately 48 million principal amount of its 101/8% Senior Notes due 2013 with a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of capital stock (see Note 13). In the second quarter of 2005, the Company will record a loss on retirement of debt of approximately $6 million for the related redemption premium on the 101/8% Senior Notes, and approximately $1 million for the write-off of deferred debt issue costs.
4. Divestiture and Asset Sales
      On January 9, 2004, the Company completed the disposal of its North American Independent Aftermarket business, (“Autospecialty”) which had sales of approximately $55 million in 2003. Proceeds from the sale were approximately $10 million, net of cash retained in the business. Through the sale date, Autospecialty’s financial position and results of operations were included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As the purchase price approximated the book value of Autospeciality on the sale date, no gain or loss was incurred in connection with this divestiture.
      During the first quarter of 2004, the Company also completed two sale-leaseback transactions involving certain land and buildings used for corporate and engineering activities in Shirley, England and Livonia, Michigan. The Company received cash on the disposals of approximately $90 million (including unremitted VAT of approximately $14 million, which has subsequently been remitted) and $7 million, respectively. The Shirley transaction included a capital lease component of $21 million due to the retention of interest by the Company in certain buildings.
5. Restructuring
      For the three months ended April 1, 2005, Chassis Systems, Occupant Safety Systems and Automotive Components recorded charges of $4 million, $2 million, and $2 million, respectively, for severance and costs related to the consolidation of certain facilities.
      For the three months ended March 26, 2004, Chassis Systems recorded charges of $5 million for severance and costs related to the consolidation of certain facilities. The Company also recorded an additional $2 million reserve in purchase accounting primarily for severance related to strategic restructurings and plant closings.

Three months ended March 26, 2004
    79       5       2       (25 )     (2 )     59  
      Of the $41 million restructuring reserve accrued as of April 1, 2005, approximately $18 million is expected to be paid in 2005 and the remainder is expected to be paid in 2006 through 2010. Of the remainder, the Company expects to pay approximately $18 million related to involuntary employee termination arrangements outside the United States over the next several years in accordance with local law.
6. Inventories
      The major classes of inventory are as follows:
                   
    As of
     
    April 1, 2005   December 31, 2004
         
    (Dollars in millions)
Finished products and work in process
  $ 360     $ 373  
Raw materials and supplies
    307       311  
             
 
Total inventories
  $ 667     $ 684  
             
7. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill
      As of both April 1, 2005 and December 31, 2004, goodwill balances for the Chassis Systems segment, the Occupant Safety Systems segment and the Automotive Components segment were $946 million, $910 million and $501 million, respectively.
