Meritor Announces Updated Guidance for its Third Quarter of Fiscal
Year 2011

TROY, Mich. (July 21, 2011) – Meritor, Inc. (NYSE: MTOR) announced today it is tightening its EBITDA guidance within its previously announced range, while slightly lowering its revenue and free cash flow guidance for its third quarter of fiscal year 2011.

The company now anticipates the following results from continuing operations in the third quarter of fiscal year 2011.

• Revenue in the range of $1,280 million to $1,290 million.
   
• Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $100 million to $104 million.
   
• Free cash flow to be around breakeven.

“Sales in the third fiscal quarter are expected to be up between seven percent and eight percent compared to the second quarter of fiscal year 2011, with strong EBITDA conversion, keeping us on the path toward our 2012 financial goals,” said Jay Craig, chief financial officer, Meritor. “Cash flow is expected to be around breakeven primarily due to investments in inventory.”

The company will report full quarterly results for its third fiscal quarter and provide guidance for its fourth fiscal quarter of 2011 during its previously scheduled earnings call which will take place Aug. 2, 2011 at 9 a.m. ET.
