NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
June 29, 2003

NOTE A—Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared by CTS Corporation (CTS or the Company), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, notes thereto and other information included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) necessary for a fair statement, in all material respects, of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.  The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

Certain reclassifications have been made for the periods presented in the financial statements to conform to the classifications adopted in 2003.

NOTE B—Stock-Based Compensation

CTS accounts for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and its related interpretations.  CTS has adopted the disclosure requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's (FASB) Financial Accounting Standard (FAS) No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure."  Had compensation cost for CTS' fixed, stock-based compensation plans been determined based on the fair value method, as defined by FAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," CTS' net earnings (loss) and net earnings (loss) per share would have been adjusted to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended

NOTE D—Restructuring and Impairment Charges

In the third quarter of 2002, CTS recorded $18.3 million of pre-tax restructuring and impairment charges.  The restructuring and impairment charges were incurred in order to effect operational improvements and related organizational realignments primarily in the Components and Sensors business segment involving the relocation of certain manufacturing operations.   CTS completed substantially all of these restructuring actions by the end of 2002.

The restructuring charge of $5.0 million recorded in the third quarter of 2002 relates primarily to organizational realignment in the Components and Sensors business segment, and reductions in support staff for the design of new custom variations of certain product lines.  Included in this amount is $4.6 million of severance costs associated with the separation of approximately 300 employees, substantially all of which have been severed as of June 29, 2003.  Approximately 67% of the employees severed were salary and indirect employees and 33% were hourly production employees.

The following table displays the restructuring activity and restructuring reserve balances as of June 29, 2003 for actions initiated in 2002:

	Workforce			Other
	Reductions			Exit Costs			Total

PART I  -  FINANCIAL INFORMATION (Continued)

   Item 1.   Financial Statements (Continued)

NOTE D—Restructuring and Impairment Charges (Continued)

The 2002 restructuring plan also includes $12.5 million of asset impairment charges.  Approximately $9.8 million of the impairment charge is the adjustment needed to recognize impairments resulting from the reduction in the remaining useful lives of certain manufacturing equipment. Approximately $2.1 million of the impairment charge relates to the write-off of leasehold improvements at its engineering and design facility in Taiwan and at its manufacturing facility in China.  Approximately $0.2 million relates to impairment of certain intangible assets acquired in the 1999 acquisition of the Component Products Division of Motorola.  The remaining $0.4 million impairment charge relates to adjustments to the estimated fair value of certain assets held for sale.

CTS also recognized a pension plan curtailment loss of approximately $0.8 million in the third quarter of 2002, resulting from reduced employment levels as a result of the restructuring activities.

In 2001, CTS recorded $40.0 million of pre-tax restructuring and impairment charges, $14.0 million in the second quarter and $26.0 million in the fourth quarter.  Plan actions were designed to permit the Company to operate more efficiently in the then-existing environment and, at the same time, position the Company for success when the economy improves.  CTS completed these consolidations and transfers in fiscal 2002.

During the first six months of 2002, CTS recorded in cost of sales, $1.2  million of restructuring-related, one-time charges, consisting primarily of equipment relocation and other employee-related costs.  No such charges were incurred in the first six months of 2003.

Note E—Assets Held for Sale

Assets held for sale at June 29, 2003 are comprised of facilities, primarily the Longtan, Taiwan, building and other machinery and equipment that has been removed from service and is to be disposed of pursuant to the Company’s restructuring activities (refer also to Note D, “Restructuring and Impairment Charges”).  The assets are held by the Components and Sensors business segment.  These assets are recorded at amounts not in excess of what management currently expects to receive upon sale, less cost of disposal; however, the amounts the Company will ultimately realize are dependent on numerous factors, some of which are beyond management’s ability to control, and could differ materially from the amounts currently recorded.

In the first half of 2003, CTS sold the production equipment from its 3.2x5mm TCXO production line.  This equipment was classified as assets held for sale at December 31, 2002.

PART I  -  FINANCIAL INFORMATION (Continued)

   Item 1.   Financial Statements (Continued)

Note F—Financial Instruments

In the second quarter of 2003, CTS entered into a series of forward exchange contracts to manage its risk to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates between the Euro and the United Kingdom Pound.  These contracts, which expire monthly in 2003, are designed to hedge anticipated foreign currency transactions.  In accordance with FAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” these forward contracts for forecasted transactions are designated as cash flow hedges and recorded as assets or liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value.  Changes in the contracts’ fair values are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income until they are recognized in earnings at the time the forecasted transaction occurs.

Note G—Long-Term Debt

As of June 29, 2003, CTS had a senior, secured credit agreement with a revolving credit facility commitment totaling $85 million, expiring in December 2003, with an outstanding balance of $18.3 million.  On July 14, 2003, CTS entered into a new, three-year credit agreement (the new credit agreement) containing a $55 million senior, secured revolving credit facility, replacing the $85 million credit agreement.  CTS has classified the June 29, 2003 outstanding balance of $18.3 million as long-term debt.

The new credit agreement categorized this debt as senior to other debt held by CTS. The debt is collateralized by substantially all U.S. assets and a pledge of 65% of the capital stock of certain non-U.S. subsidiaries. Interest rates on these borrowings fluctuate based upon LIBOR. CTS pays a commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the revolving credit agreement. The commitment fee varies based on performance under certain financial covenants, and is currently 0.50 percent per annum. The new credit agreement requires, among other things, that CTS comply with a minimum fixed charge coverage, maximum leverage ratio and a minimum tangible net worth. Failure of CTS to comply with these covenants could reduce the borrowing availability under the new credit agreement. Additionally, the new credit agreement limits the amounts allowed for dividends, capital expenditures and acquisitions. The new credit agreement also allows for expansion of the facility commitment to $75 million after January 14, 2004 if certain conditions are met by CTS.

NOTE H—Business Segments

FAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” requires companies to provide certain information about their operating segments.  At the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company renamed the reportable business segments and realigned the product lines included in each segment to reflect changes in its organizational structure and the manner that results are evaluated and resources allocated by the chief operating decision maker.  All segment data included in these condensed consolidated financial statements reflects the reportable business segments adopted in 2002.  CTS has two reportable business segments: 1) Components and Sensors and 2) Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS).

Components and sensors are products which perform specific electronic functions for a given product family and are intended for use in customer assemblies.  Components and sensors consist principally of automotive sensors and actuators used in commercial or consumer vehicles; electronic components used in cellular handsets; quartz crystals and oscillators used in the communications and computer markets; low temperature cofired ceramics (LTCC) used in global positioning systems (GPS) and electronic substrates used in various communications and automotive applications; pointing sticks/cursor controls for computers and games for the computer market; terminators, including ClearONE™ terminators, used in computer and other high speed applications, switches, resistor networks and potentiometers used to serve multiple markets.

   Item 1.   Financial Statements (Continued)

NOTE H—Business Segments (Continued)

EMS includes the higher level assembly of electronic and mechanical components into a finished subassembly or assembly performed under a contract manufacturing agreement with an OEM or other contract manufacturer.  EMS also includes design of interconnect systems and complex backplanes, global supply-chain management services and related manufacturing and design services as may be required by the customer.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Management evaluates performance based upon operating earnings before interest and income taxes.

Summarized financial information concerning CTS’ reportable segments, including reclassification of prior years, is shown in the following table:

	Components and Sensors			EMS		Total

NOTE I—Contingencies

Certain processes in the manufacture of CTS’ current and past products create hazardous waste by-products as currently defined by federal and state laws and regulations.  CTS has been notified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, state environmental agencies and, in some cases, generator groups, that it is or may be a Potentially Responsible Party (PRP) regarding hazardous waste remediation at several non-CTS sites.  In addition to these non-CTS sites, CTS has an ongoing practice of providing reserves for probable remediation activities at certain of its manufacturing locations and for claims and proceedings against CTS with respect to other environmental matters.  In the opinion of management, based upon presently available information relating to all such matters, either adequate provision for probable costs has been made, or the ultimate costs resulting will not materially affect the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of CTS.

Certain claims are pending against CTS with respect to matters arising out of the ordinary conduct of its business.  For all claims, in the opinion of management, based upon presently available information, either adequate provision for anticipated costs has been made by insurance, accruals or otherwise, or the ultimate anticipated costs resulting will not materially affect CTS’ consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In 1999, CTS acquired certain assets and liabilities of the Component Products Division of Motorola.  The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.  As part of the purchase agreement, CTS may be obligated to pay additional amounts.  No amounts are due to Motorola in 2003 for 2002 under the agreement.  CTS does not expect to make a material payment under this agreement in 2004 for 2003, which is the final year of potential obligations.   The maximum remaining potential payment under the acquisition agreement was $17.4 million at June 29, 2003.

NOTE K—Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2003, the FASB issued FAS No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”  FAS No. 149 amends and clarifies the accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under FAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”  FAS No. 149 is generally effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003.  CTS is still evaluating the effect that the adoption of FAS No. 149 will have on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows, but does not expect the impact to be significant.

In May 2003, the FASB issued FAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity.”  FAS No. 150 requires that certain financial instruments, which under previous guidance were accounted for as equity, must now be accounted for as liabilities.  The financial instruments affected include mandatorily redeemable stock, certain financial instruments that require or may require the issuer to buy back some of its shares in exchange for cash or other assets and certain obligations that can be settled with shares of stock.  FAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and must be applied to CTS´ existing financial instruments effective June 30, 2003, the beginning of the first interim period after June 15, 2003.  CTS does not expect the adoption of FAS No. 150 to have a material effect on its results of operations or financial condition.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Management believes that judgment and estimates related to the following critical accounting policies could materially affect its consolidated financial statements.

     •  Estimating inventory valuation, the allowance for doubtful accounts and other accrued liabilities
     •  Valuation of long-lived and intangible assets and depreciation / amortization periods
     •  Income taxes
     •  Retirement plans

In the first six months of 2003, there have been no changes in the above critical accounting policies.

Results of Operations (Continued)

The second quarter of 2003 sales of components and sensors and EMS products, as a percentage of total sales, were 55% and 45% respectively. The second quarter of 2002 sales of components and sensors and EMS products, as a percentage of total sales, were 62% and 38% respectively. Refer to Note H, "Business Segments," for a description of the Company's business segments.

Components and Sensors business segment sales decreased $8.7 million or 12% from the prior year quarter. The decrease was caused by a $4.4 million reduction in end-of-life products and general softness in the automotive, computer and communications markets. The operating earnings of $1.8 million increased $5.1 million primarily from lower depreciation and amortization expense of $3.2 million, a new royalty licensing fee of $1.0 million, and other restructuring-related cost reductions.

EMS business segment sales increased $7.7 million, or 17% from the prior year quarter primarily in infrastructure systems equipment. The operating earnings of $2.7 million increased $0.5 million primarily from increased volumes.

   Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Results of Operations (Continued)

Although total sales were relatively constant, gross margins increased $3.4 million, or 3 percentage points. Significant items contributing to this increase include lower depreciation expense of $2.2 million, and higher revenue from a new royalty licensing fee of $1.0 million. Restructuring-related, one-time charges in the second quarter of 2002 were $0.4 million, while none were incurred in 2003.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $14.6 million, or 13% of sales, compared to $16.6 million, or 14% of sales, in the prior year quarter. The reduction was primarily due to benefits of restructuring actions and cost reduction programs.  Research and development expenses of $5.4 million, or 5% of sales, decreased $0.6 million from the second quarter of 2002.

Operating earnings increased $6.0 million compared to the prior year quarter.  Improved operating earnings primarily resulted from decreased depreciation and amortization expense of $3.1 million and a reduction in other operating expenses of $1.5 million, primarily from restructuring-related cost reductions. In addition, the second quarter of 2003 included a new royalty license fee of $1.0 million. While no restructuring-related, one-time charges were incurred in 2003, the second quarter of 2002 included a $0.4 million restructuring-related, one-time charge.

Total other expense decreased $0.2 million.   Interest expense decreased $1.0 million, offset primarily by lower gains on disposal of assets.

Results of Operations (Continued)

During the first six months of 2003, sales of components and sensors and EMS products, as a percentage of total sales, were 56% and 44% respectively. The first six months of 2002 sales of components and sensors and EMS products, as a percentage of total sales, were 60% and 40% respectively. Refer to Note H, "Business Segments," for a description of the Company's business segments.

Components and Sensors business segment sales decreased $13.3 million or 10% from the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction of end-of-life product sales of $8.5 million and a general softness in the automotive, computer and communications markets. Despite the sales decrease, operating earnings increased $7.7 million due to lower depreciation and amortization expense of $5.7 million and other improvements of $5.1 million primarily due to restructuring-related actions. A one-time customer reimbursement of $3.1 million was included in 2002.

EMS business segment sales increased $5.5 million, or 6% from the prior year primarily in infrastructure systems equipment. The operating earnings of $5.0 million decreased $0.6 million from a shift in sales to lower margin products.

   Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Results of Operations (Continued)

Net sales decreased by $7.9 million, or 3% from the first half of 2002.  The decline in sales principally reflects the Company’s decision to exit and end-of-life on certain component product lines of $8.5 million, used primarily in cell phone applications, and a reduction of $4.9 million in other components and sensor products. These decreases were partially offset by higher demand for EMS infrastructure systems of $5.5 million.

Gross margin increased $1.8 million, or 1.5 percentage points, despite lower sales volume.  The first half of 2002 included a $1.9 million net favorable one-time adjustment which consisted of a $3.1 million one-time customer reimbursement and $1.2 million of restructuring-related, one-time charges. The 2003 gross margin dollar and percentage improvement was primarily due to lower depreciation expense of $3.6 million and other restructuring-related cost reductions.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $27.5 million, or 12% of sales, compared to $31.9 million, or 14% of sales, in the first half of 2002. The reduction was primarily due to benefits of the restructuring actions. Research and development expenses of $11.0 million decreased $2.1 million from the first half of 2002. While significant ongoing research and development activities continue in our Components and Sensors business segment to support expanded applications and new product development, a decrease in spending occurred due to the end-of-life decision of certain products in the third quarter of 2002. Operating earnings of $7.1 million increased $8.3 million compared to the first six months of 2002, as previously described above.

CTS announced restructuring plans during 2002 and 2001, designed to effect operational improvements and related organizational realignments and to size the Company to then-existing market realities, while continuing to put a priority on positioning the Company to be successful as the economy recovers and market growth returns. See Note D, “Restructuring and Impairment Charges,” for additional explanation of the plan actions.  The expected 2003 pre-tax profitability improvement associated with the 2002 restructuring and asset impairment charges is estimated to be $17.0 million.

Total other expense of $3.7 million decreased $1.2 million, primarily due to reduced interest expense of $1.7 million, partially offset by $0.5 million of lower gains on asset sales.

During the first six months of 2003, CTS completed the sale of its 3.2x5mm TCXO production line. The 3.2x5mm TCXO products are used primarily in mobile handset applications and sales of these 3.2x5mm TCXO products were insignificant in prior years.

PART I  -  FINANCIAL INFORMATION (Continued)

   Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 29, 2003, CTS had a senior, secured credit agreement with a revolving credit facility commitment totaling $85 million, expiring in December 2003, with an outstanding balance of $18.3 million. On July 14, 2003, CTS entered into a new, three-year credit agreement (the new credit agreement) containing a $55 million senior, secured revolving credit facility, replacing the $85 million credit agreement. CTS has classified the June 29, 2003 outstanding balance of $18.3 million as long-term debt. The new credit agreement allows for the expansion of the facility commitment to $75 million after January 14, 2004, if certain conditions are met. The new credit agreement contains financial covenants briefly described in Note G, "Long-Term Debt." While these covenants are typical and CTS management currently expects to be in compliance with all financial covenants, there can be no assurance of this since certain factors, such as forecasted future operating results, are dependent upon future events, some of which are beyond CTS' ability to control. If CTS is unable to comply with the financial covenants, it will seek to obtain amendments or waivers from the lenders and/or identify other sources of liquidity such as raising additional capital and/or the sale of certain assets, including assets held for sale. In the third quarter of 2003, CTS expects to write-off $0.4 million of debt issue costs relating to the old credit agreement.

During the first half of 2003, CTS reduced the outstanding balance of the revolving credit facility by $10.1 million, primarily through cash provided by operations of $6.9 million, and $3.0 million proceeds from the issuance of stock.

Working capital increased $33.5 million in the first six months of 2003. The change in debt classification of $18.3 million, combined with the net debt repayment of $10.1 million, accounts for $28.4 of this change. The remaining working capital change is primarily attributable to tax-related items of $5.0 million, prepaids and non-trade receivables of $2.0 million, offset by the net effect of accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payable of $0.2 million and a $2.5 million reduction in cash.

Cash flows provided by operations were $6.9 million in the first half of 2003.  Components of cash flows from operations include earnings of $2.6 million, depreciation and amortization of $17.3 million partially offset by unfavorable changes in current assets and current liabilities of $6.8 million, and a $6.1 million increase in the prepaid pension asset. In the first half of 2002, cash flows provided by operating activities were $2.7 million.  The net loss, combined with the increase in the pension asset and net working capital reductions were more than offset by depreciation and amortization for the first half of 2002.

Cash flows used in investing activities totaled $0.6 million through the first half of 2003, including $4.5 million of capital expenditures partially offset by $4.0 million of proceeds from the sale of assets. Cash flows used for investing activities totaled $6.2 million through the first half of 2002, consisting principally of $8.0 million of capital expenditures partially offset by $1.8 million of proceeds from the sale of assets.

Cash flows used by financing activities were $9.2 million in 2003, consisting primarily of the net repayment of debt of $10.1 million and dividend payments of $2.0 million, partially offset by proceeds from issuance of stock of $3.0 million. Cash flows provided by financing activities were $4.8 million in 2002, consisting primarily of proceeds from the issuance of debt of $26.1 million and proceeds from the issuance of common stock of $39.1 million, partially offset debt and dividend payments of $58.6 million and $1.9 million, respectively.

CTS’ capital expenditures for 2003 are expected to total approximately $15 million, $4.5 million of which has been spent during the first six months of the year.  These capital expenditures are primarily for new products and cost savings initiatives. CTS is also obligated to make approximately $6 million of lease payments in 2003.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (Continued)

CTS believes cash flows from operations and available borrowings under its new revolving credit facility will be adequate to fund its working capital and capital expenditure requirements.  However, if customer demand decreases significantly from forecasted levels or customer pricing pressures reduce revenues or profit margins significantly, CTS may need to find an alternative funding source.  In this event, CTS may choose to pursue additional equity and/or debt financing.  CTS may not be able to obtain additional financing, which would be affected by general economic and market conditions, on terms acceptable to CTS or at all.

On December 14, 1999, CTS’ shelf registration statement on Form S-3 was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.  CTS could initially offer up to $500.0 million in any combination of debt securities, common stock, preferred stock or warrants under the registration statement.   During the first half of 2003, CTS did not issue any common stock under this registration statement.  As of June 29, 2003, CTS could offer up to $445.8 million of additional debt and/or equity securities under this registration statement.

On November 13, 2001, CTS’ Form S-3 registration statement registering two million shares of CTS common stock to be issued under CTS’ Direct Stock Purchase Plan was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.  During the first half of 2003, CTS issued $3.0 million of common stock under this registration statement.  CTS used the net proceeds of these equity issuances to repay the revolver under the prior credit agreement.  As of June 29, 2003, CTS could issue up to approximately 188,000 additional shares of common stock under this registration statement.

In April 2002, the Company issued $25 million of five-year, 6.5% convertible, subordinated debentures.  These debentures are unsecured and convert into CTS common stock at a conversion price of $20.05 per share.  At any time after the three-year anniversary of the issue date, the purchasers may accelerate the maturity of the debentures.  CTS also has the right after such three-year anniversary and under certain circumstances, to force conversion of the debentures into common stock.  CTS used the net proceeds from the offering to repay the outstanding term loans in full under its then existing credit facility, and the balance was applied to its revolving facility.

   Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no material changes in CTS' market risk since December 31, 2002.

   Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

CTS maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure information required to be disclosed by CTS in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.  Within the 90-day period prior to the filing of this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of CTS’ management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of CTS’ disclosure controls and procedures.   Based on that evaluation, the chief executive and financial officers have concluded that CTS’ disclosure controls and procedures are effective.  Subsequent to the date of their evaluation, there have been no significant changes in CTS’ internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls.  The company's management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud.  A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.

PART II  -  OTHER INFORMATION

   Item 1.    Legal Proceedings

Certain processes in the manufacture of CTS’ current and past products create hazardous waste by-products as currently defined by federal and state laws and regulations.  CTS has been notified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, state environmental agencies and, in some cases, generator groups, that it is or may be a Potentially Responsible Party (PRP) regarding hazardous waste remediation at several non-CTS sites.  In addition to these non-CTS sites, CTS has an ongoing practice of providing reserves for probable remediation activities at certain of its manufacturing locations and for claims and proceedings against CTS with respect to other environmental matters.  In the opinion of management, based upon presently available information relating to all such matters, either adequate provision for probable costs has been made, or the ultimate costs resulting will not materially affect the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of CTS.

Certain claims are pending against CTS with respect to matters arising out of the ordinary conduct of its business.  For all claims, in the opinion of management, based upon presently available information, either adequate provision for anticipated costs has been made by insurance, accruals or otherwise, or the ultimate anticipated costs resulting will not materially affect CTS’ consolidated financial position or results of operations.

During the fourth quarter of 2002, a claim was made by one business unit of a major customer regarding a possible performance-related issue with a particular product. During the second quarter of 2003, CTS resolved this claim in a manner that was acceptable to both parties. This resolution had no material affect on the results of operations in the second quarter of 2003, and is not expected to have any material affect in future periods on the results of operations or cash flows.

   Item 5.    Other Information

Employees of CTS Corporation and its domestic subsidiaries have been eligible to invest in CTS common stock as one of the investment options under the CTS Corporation Retirement Savings Plan (the “401(k) Plan”) since January 1, 1989. The Plan Trustee buys CTS common stock for this purpose on the open market. CTS does not receive any remuneration from these transactions. In the period between June 27, 2002 and June 27, 2003, the Trustee purchased 268,588 shares of CTS common stock under the 401(k) Plan at a total cost of approximately $1.8 million. Although CTS believes that registration was not required under the Securities Act of 1933, in order to eliminate any future concerns, on June 27, 2003 CTS filed a registration statement on Form S-8 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the 401(k) Plan. In addition, CTS has agreed with the CTS Corporation Employee Benefits Committee, the Plan Administrator, to restore any losses realized by participants in the 401(k) Plan on purchases and sales that took place within the one-year period prior to the filing of the registration statement. CTS anticipates that the cost of restoring such amounts will be less than $50,000.
