5.

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations,” and SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” Purchased goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets were no longer amortized as of that date, but will be tested for impairment annually. The Company also reevaluated its intangible assets and determined that any changes in their useful lives was not material to the results of its operations. At March 31, 2002, unamortized purchased goodwill was approximately $428,000 (Tire segment $45,000 and Automotive segment $383,000). Pursuant to SFAS No. 142, the Company will complete its test for goodwill impairment during the second quarter 2002 and, if impairment is indicated, record such impairment as a cumulative effect of accounting change effective January 1, 2002. The

Company is currently evaluating the effect that the impairment review may have on its consolidated results of operations and financial position. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Company’s reported net income and basic and diluted earnings per share were $3,648 and five cents, respectively. When adjusted for the non-amortization provisions of SFAS No. 142, the reported net income and basic and diluted earnings per share would have been $7,498 and ten cents, respectively.

On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. There was no material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated Results of Operations

Consolidated net sales for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002 were $813 million, an increase of $55 million, or seven percent, from sales in the first three months of 2001. Operating profit was $61 million in the first quarter of 2002 versus $25 million in the first quarter of 2001, net income was $26 million versus $4 million in the first quarter of 2001, and earnings per share were 36 cents compared to five cents in the first quarter of 2001. These increases occurred in both the tire and automotive segments, and resulted from both a stronger economy and market share increases. When results for the first quarter of 2001 are adjusted to eliminate the impact of goodwill amortization and class action defense costs, neither of which impacted results in the first three months of 2002, operating profit was $7 million, net income was $6 million, and earnings per share were eight cents. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” on January 1, 2002 which eliminated the amortization of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $61 million in the first quarter of 2002 (7.4 percent of net sales) compared to $64 million (8.4 percent of net sales) in the same period in 2001. The decreases in 2002 are due to the achievement of cost reductions and the higher sales level.

Interest expense was $20 million in the first three months of 2002, compared to $23 million in the same period of 2001, reflecting the repayment of debt and lower interest rates.

Other income decreased more than $3 million to $659,000 in the first quarter of 2002 from last year’s first quarter, reflecting the premium cost for the repurchase of a portion of the Company’s public notes in 2002 and a gain from the sale of an aircraft during the first quarter of 2001. The decline in 2002 was partially mitigated by decreases in foreign currency losses in the first three months of 2002 from those recorded in the comparable period of 2001.

The Company’s effective income tax rate of 37.0 percent for the first quarter of 2002 is lower than the 37.3 percent rate reported for the first three months of 2001. This decrease is due to the elimination of the amortization of non-deductible goodwill in accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” The Company’s inability to record the tax benefits of losses in certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries and the uncertain continuation of United States tax incentives relating to export sales partially offset the benefit of the change in goodwill amortization.

Tire Segment

Overview

Sales of passenger car and light truck tire replacement units in the United States market increased in the first quarter of 2002 by approximately five percent from sales levels in the first quarter of 2001, due in significant part to a strengthening economy. Low-priced tires continue to be imported into the United States market at high levels.

Sales

Sales of the Tire segment were $433 million in the first quarter of 2002, an increase of $45 million, or 12 percent, from $388 million in the first quarter of 2001. Tire unit sales for the first three months of 2002 increased 13 percent from the comparable 2001 period.

The segment’s sales increase was largely achieved in the North American passenger and light truck tire market and resulted primarily from improvements in market share, increased purchases in advance of announced price increases effective in March 2002, and higher consumer demand. The first quarter of 2001 was marked by weakening economic conditions, slack demand following the abnormally high demand for certain tires generated by the Firestone recall announced in August 2000, and increased purchases in the fourth quarter of 2000 ahead of a January 1, 2001 price increase. The segment’s sales of passenger tires increased by 17 percent in the first quarter of 2002 over the same period one year ago versus an industry-wide sales increase of five percent. Sales of light truck tires increased by eight percent in the first quarter of 2002 over the first quarter of 2001, while industry-wide sales in this category increased by five percent.

Sales of the segment’s international operations decreased three percent in the first three months of 2002 from the comparable period of 2001, due primarily to the strength of the United States dollar. Sales of the segment’s commercial products operations were unchanged year over year. Declines in custom rubber mixing sales were offset by gains in the sales of radial medium truck tires.

Operating Profit

Operating profit improved from $16 million in the first quarter of 2001 to $43 million in the first three months of 2002. The absence in the first quarter of 2002 of the amortization of goodwill, class action defense costs, and restructuring expense accounted for $4 million of the improvement. The remainder was due to the substantial increase in unit sales, lower raw material costs, price increases implemented in North America during the third quarter of 2001, and lower product liability provisions. The segment is continuing the production curtailments initiated during the second quarter of 2001. The cost of these production curtailments during the first three months of 2002 was offset by improvements in production efficiencies.

Operating profit of the segment’s international operations improved during the first quarter of 2002, due primarily to progress achieved on a strategic initiative commenced in 2000 to streamline the various product lines offered by its United Kingdom subsidiary to focus on higher-margin premium and performance tires, and to improvements in production efficiencies.

Profitability of the segment’s commercial products operations also improved in the first quarter of 2002, due most significantly to the achievement of production efficiencies that resulted, in part, from increased production and sales of radial medium truck tires.

Outlook

The segment expects to experience continued strong demand for its products in the second quarter of 2002. This expectation is consistent with the upward revision made by a leading trade association in its forecast for replacement tire sales for all of 2002, as the economy strengthens to a greater extent than had originally been anticipated. The segment has implemented a price increase effective March 1, 2002. It is not certain whether this increase will have an adverse impact on sales for the second quarter. If expectations for strengthened sales are realized, the segment will be able to avoid additional production curtailments and shutdown days, which are expensive measures that can have an adverse impact on the segment’s profitability level.

The commercial products division expects to benefit from gradually improving economic conditions in the commercial trucking industry during the remainder of 2002 and the inclusion of sales from former Hercules customers for all of 2002. Economic conditions within the commercial trucking industry were extremely weak in the first three months of 2002. Current industry forecasts are for conditions to improve over the balance of the year, with overall growth of approximately two percent in 2002.

The Company has tentatively settled numerous class action lawsuits pending against it involving its tires. Additional information about the lawsuits is included in the “Contingencies” section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

The segment may also begin to be impacted later in 2002 by the Transportation Recall Enhancement Accountability and Documentation Act (“TREAD Act”) which became law on November 1, 2000, and which will directly impact the tire industry. The TREAD Act and any regulations promulgated under the Act are applicable to all tire manufacturers and importers of tires who sell tires in the United States, regardless of where such tires are manufactured. The Company continues to work with the Rubber Manufacturers’ Association in reviewing and preparing tire industry comments on the proposed rules. The Company will continue to closely monitor these rules and assess the potential financial impact on the Company as the regulations become final and are implemented.

Automotive Segment

Overview

The Company’s Automotive segment serves automotive original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) throughout the world. Light vehicle production in North America increased by approximately 3.5 percent in the first quarter of 2002 over the first quarter of 2001, as general economic conditions began to improve during the quarter. Production in Europe and South America declined eight percent and ten percent, respectively, during the quarter from the comparable period in 2001.

Notwithstanding the improvement in light vehicle sales which occurred during the quarter, the pricing environment remains difficult for automobile manufacturers, and as a result, they continue to seek price reductions from suppliers. As a result, emphasis on continuous improvement, lean manufacturing, and other cost reduction initiatives is essential to achieving targeted financial results.

Sales

Sales for the Automotive segment were $386 million in the first quarter of 2002, an increase of 2.5 percent from $377 million in the first quarter of 2001. The sales increase was the result of net new business, the increase in light vehicle production in North America from the levels of the first quarter of 2001, and specific increases on certain vehicles the production of which increased by a greater amount than the overall market. These increases were partially offset by the decreases in light vehicle production in Europe and South America, the impact of lower prices for certain of the segment’s products and the discontinuance of certain programs for which the segment provided products.

Operating Profit

Operating profit for the first quarter of 2002 was $21 million, an improvement from the $10 million reported for the first quarter of 2001. Results for the current quarter did not include the amortization of goodwill, which has been eliminated in accordance with new accounting standards. Results for the first quarter of 2001 would have been $3 million higher had goodwill not been amortized during that quarter. In addition, restructuring costs of $427,000 and $822,000 impacted operating profit for the first quarters of 2002 and 2001, respectively.

The higher North American light vehicle production levels in the first three months of 2002, together with the impact of the segment’s restructuring, lean manufacturing, and other cost reduction initiatives, were responsible for the higher operating profits reported by the segment. In addition, during the first quarter of 2001, the segment was not able to adjust its cost structure for the significant reductions in light vehicle production levels which were occurring and inefficiencies created by erratic scheduling resulting from the short lead times given by the OEMs in advance of frequent production curtailments. During the first quarter of 2002, the segment was able to

operate its facilities more efficiently as a result of more stable OEM production levels. The volume and operating cost efficiencies were partially offset by price reductions granted to the segment’s customers during 2001.

The segment’s business outside of North America was not profitable in the first quarter of 2002, due to decreases in light vehicle production levels, inefficient operations in both the sealing and fluid systems units in the United Kingdom, and the continued effects of weak economic conditions in Brazil and Argentina. During the first quarter of 2001, the segment’s international business was marginally profitable. The year over year decline is due to substantial declines in the performance of the segment’s operations in Brazil where weak economic conditions have significantly reduced sales and operating profits.

Outlook

The performance of the Automotive segment over the remainder of 2002 is dependent upon several factors. The overall level of light vehicle production is a significant influence on the segment’s level of profitability. Given encouraging economic news thus far in 2002, the segment has increased its estimate for projected North America light vehicle production.

The segment has a significant amount of new business launching over the next 18 months. The efficient and effective launch of this new business is important to the segment.

Performance is also dependent on the extent of price reductions negotiated with the segment’s customers. As is the case with automotive suppliers generally, the segment is currently engaged in discussions with its major customers for additional price reductions.

In Europe, the segment expects that given stable economic conditions, it will improve its profitability in 2002 because of the growing efficiency of its operations and the impact of having fully implemented the restructuring plan, which will occur before the end of the year. In South America, significant additional cost reductions are being implemented to adjust for an expected continuation of weak economic conditions. In addition, increased volume associated with new product launches beginning in the second half of the year are expected to result in improved performance.

Company Summary

The Company’s current expectation for the second quarter of 2002 is an improvement in earnings per share to approximately 45 cents to 50 cents from the 25 cents earned in the second quarter of 2001. This expectation is attributable to anticipated improvements in the sales volumes of the Company’s tire products and the incremental contribution of net new automotive business, continued low raw material costs, and to the other factors outlined in the “Outlook” sections under both the Tire and Automotive segment summaries. A weakening of economic conditions from levels currently anticipated would adversely impact results, but the impact of the new automotive business awarded, the completion of the Company’s restructuring programs and a relentless emphasis on lean manufacturing and other cost reduction efforts have improved the Company’s overall profitability level.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating activities was $86 million in the first three months of 2002, $72 million higher than the $14 million generated in the first three months of 2001. Changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in the availability of $53 million more cash in the first quarter of 2002 than in the first quarter of 2001.

Net cash used in investing activities during the first quarter of 2002 reflects capital expenditures of $24 million, compared to $38 million in the comparable 2001 period. Capital expenditures in 2002 are expected to approximate $150 million, primarily to support new business launching in 2002 and 2003, advances in manufacturing technology and process improvements throughout the Company’s operations.

Net cash used in investing activities during the first quarter of 2001 included the purchase of certain assets of Siebe’s subsidiary in India. The Company sold various assets in the first three months of 2001, including an aircraft, for $6 million.

Through its financing activities in the first three months of 2002, the Company reduced its total debt by $49 million. The reduction consisted primarily of the repurchase of $46 million of the Company’s public notes. Dividends paid on the Company’s common shares in both the first quarter of 2002 and 2001 were $8 million. During the first three months of 2002, the Company generated $5 million through the issuance of common shares from the exercise of stock options.

As of March 31, 2002, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants contained in its credit agreements. At that date, the ratio of total indebtedness to total capitalization was 52.2 percent, under the definitions contained in the agreements. For the twelve months ended March 31, 2002, the fixed charge coverage ratio was 1.96 times, which was above the 1.5 times required under the agreement. There were no borrowings under the $250 million credit facility with a group of eight banks at March 31, 2002. At March 31, 2001, $153 million was outstanding under that facility.

The Company expects, given current business projections, that sufficient liquidity will be provided by cash flows from operations, the disposition of assets held for sale, its credit facilities and its loan arrangement secured by certain trade receivables to fund its obligations and commitments during the remainder of 2002. The Company’s additional borrowing capacity through use of its credit agreement with its bank group, its shelf registration, and other bank lines at March 31, 2002 is $397 million.

Contingencies

The Company has had pending against it 32 separate class action lawsuits and two individual lawsuits with similar allegations filed in 30 separate state courts, plus the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. One of the class action lawsuits purports to represent a national class. The lawsuits, all of which were filed under the auspices of the same group of plaintiffs’ attorneys, assert claims under the respective states’ consumer protection and deceptive trade practices statutes, and comparable commercial law and other theories. They allege that the Company used certain materials and procedures in its process of manufacturing steel-belted radial tires which could have rendered a portion of the tires unsafe, and failed to disclose those practices to purchasers of its tires. The suits were brought on behalf of all persons (excluding those who have sustained personal injury and/or property damage as a result of the alleged unlawful practices) in the respective states who purchased steel-belted radial tires manufactured by the Company from 1985 to the present, and still retain those tires. The lawsuits generally seek, on behalf of each class member, relief sufficient to secure replacement of their tires, statutory, compensatory and punitive damages, costs and attorneys’ fees. The Company removed each of the actions to Federal court. Certain of the actions have been remanded to state courts, while others have been transferred by the Federal Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation to the U. S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio for consolidated pre-trial handling.

On October 26, 2001, the Company entered into a Stipulation of Settlement and Release of all of the class action lawsuits, without any admission of liability, resulting in a charge of $54.6 million ($33.9 million net of tax). Prior to settlement, $17.6 million of legal and professional and tire storage costs were incurred related to the class action litigation. Certain parties have sought to have the settlement nullified. According to the terms of the Stipulation of Settlement and Release, the Company will provide (i) a five-year Enhanced Warranty Program offering a free replacement tire for an Adjustable Separation on an Eligible Cooper Tire or an alternative dispute resolution system; (ii) some modifications to final tire inspections; and (iii) a consumer education program to promote tire safety. In addition, the Company has agreed to pay plaintiffs’ legal expenses as part of the settlement. Out of potentially millions of class members, only 156 chose to opt out of the Settlement. Those who opted out can pursue any legal rights they may have against the Company in separate individual lawsuits, any one of which the Company believes is unlikely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flow or financial position.

Preliminary judicial approval of the Settlement has been received. If final approval is received, the litigation will be fully resolved, unless appealed. There were 18 objectors to the Settlement. None objected to the structure of

the Settlement, but only to the content, coverage and amount of attorney’s fees. A fairness hearing regarding the Settlement was held in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Middlesex County on January 29 and 30, 2002. The Court has not yet rendered its decision as to the fairness of the Settlement.

The Company is also a defendant in unrelated product liability and other actions in Federal and state courts throughout the United States in which plaintiffs assert monetary damages. If the plaintiffs in certain of those actions recovered the damages sought, the impact could be material to the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, or financial position. The Company does not presently believe, however, that any liability it may have for these matters will be material to its results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

New Accounting Standards

For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements and their impact on the Company, see note five to the financial statements.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report, and in particular the “Outlook” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” sections, contain “forward-looking statements,” as that term is defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, regarding projections and expectations for future financial performance, which involve uncertainty and risk. The Company cautions that although such forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that it believes are reasonable, the assumptions are subject to various risks and actual results may differ materially from what is stated in this report. Among the factors that may cause the Company’s future financial performance to differ materially from those projections or expectations are the following, which include, but are not limited to: changes in economic and business conditions in the world, including economic and political changes in international markets and countries over which the Company has no control, increased competitive activity, the failure to achieve expected sales levels, the failure to reach agreement with the Company’s automotive customers regarding price reductions, consolidation among the Company’s competitors and customers, technology advancements, unexpected costs and charges, fluctuations in raw material and energy prices and the unavailability of raw materials and energy sources, government regulatory initiatives, including the proposed regulations under the TREAD Act, the cyclical nature and overall health of the global automotive industry, the loss of a major customer or program, risks associated with new vehicle launches, the failure to achieve the savings anticipated from the announced restructuring plans, the risks to the economy associated with external events, including those resulting from the events of September 11, 2001 and the impact on the economy of similar events which may occur in the future, litigation brought against the Company, the inability to obtain insurance coverage sufficient to cover the principal risks to the Company, and other unanticipated events and conditions. In addition, it is possible that the Company will fail to obtain final approval of the settlement of class action litigation which has been described under “Contingencies” herein.

It is not possible to foresee or identify all such factors. Any forward-looking statements in this report are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances. Prospective investors are cautioned that any such statements are not a guarantee of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected. The Company makes no commitment to update any forward-looking statement included herein, or to disclose any facts, events or circumstances that may affect the accuracy of any forward-looking statement.

Further information covering issues that could materially affect financial performance is contained in the Company’s periodic filings with the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There has been no material change in market risk at March 31, 2002 from that detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 2001.
