Safe Harbor
3
This presentation includes forward-looking statements, reflecting current analysis and expectations, based on what
are believed to be reasonable assumptions. Forward-looking statements may involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, stated or
implied, depending on many factors, including, without limitation: the inability to compare the company’s financial
condition
or
results
historically
due
to
fresh
start
accounting;
the
ability
to
maintain
contracts
and
suppliers
and
customer relationships; limitations on flexibility in operating our business contained in our debt agreements; our
dependence on the automotive industry; availability and cost of raw materials; our exposure to natural disasters; our
dependence on certain major customers; competition in the automotive industry; sovereign and other risks related to
our conducting operations outside the United States; the uncertainty of our ability to achieve expected cost
reduction savings; our exposure to product liability and warranty claims; labor conditions; our vulnerability to
changes
in
interest
rates;
our
ability
to
meet
customers’
needs
for
new
and
improved
products
in
a
timely
manner;
our ability to attract and retain key personnel; potential conflicts of interest between our owners and us; our legal
rights to our intellectual property portfolio; our pension plans; and environmental and other regulations. There may
be other factors that may cause the company’s actual results to differ materially from those projected in any
forward-looking statement. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that Cooper Standard will meet future results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. This paragraph is included
to provide a safe harbor for forward-looking statements, which are not generally required to be publicly revised as
circumstances change and which Cooper Standard does not intend to update.
There may be other factors that may cause the company’s actual results to differ materially from those projected in
any forward-looking statements. Cooper Standard undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking
statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date such statements were made or to reflect the
occurrence of unanticipated events.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
20
Management considers EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA as key indicators of the
Company’s operating performance and believes that these and similar measures
are widely used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in
evaluating the Company’s performance. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income
adjusted to reflect income tax expense, interest expense net of interest income,
depreciation and amortization and certain non-recurring items that management
does not consider to be reflective of the Company’s core operating performance.
When analyzing the Company’s operating performance, investors should use
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA in addition to, and not as alternatives for, net income,
operating income, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with
GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of
the Company’s performance. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA have limitations as
analytical
tools
and
should
not
be
considered
in
isolation
or
as
substitutes
for
analysis of the Company’s results of operations as reported under GAAP. Other
companies may report EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA differently and therefore
Cooper Standard’s results may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures
of other companies. In addition, in evaluating adjusted EBITDA, it should be noted
that
in
the
future
Cooper
Standard
may
incur
expenses
similar
to
or
in
excess
of
the
adjustments in the above presentation. This presentation of adjusted EBITDA
should not be construed as an inference that Cooper Standard’s future results will
be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
