Dana Holding Corporation Reports Second-Quarter 2008 Results

TOLEDO, Ohio — August 7, 2008 — Dana Holding Corporation (NYSE: DAN) has announced its second-quarter 2008 results.

Second-quarter highlights include:

	•		Sales of $2,333 million, a 2-percent increase compared to 2007, primarily because of currency effects;

	•		Net loss of $140 million, including an $82 million non-cash impairment charge. This compares to a net loss of $133 million in the second quarter of 2007;

	•		Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and restructuring (EBITDA) of $128 million, compared with $143 million in 2007;

	•		Strong cash balance of $1.2 billion and total liquidity of $1.6 billion at June 30, 2008; and

	•		Free cash flow of $38 million.

Dana Making Progress in Turnaround
“We are making progress in our turnaround despite unprecedented headwinds in North America,” said Executive Chairman John Devine. “The combination of much lower production volumes and higher steel costs has put considerable pressure on our 2008 operating results.

“But we are working to offset these challenges through pricing, additional restructuring, and cost reductions,” he added. “And we remain focused on our game plan to turn around Dana by rebuilding the management team, improving operations, tightening our strategic direction, and employing a strong balance sheet.”

Added Chief Executive Officer Gary Convis, “For the near term, we continue to scale our North American operations — through facility consolidations and workforce reductions — to reflect a market that’s very different than what was expected just six months ago. This will necessitate the reduction of approximately 3,000 positions over the course of 2008, including the planned reduction of 500 salaried positions announced last week. At the same time, we are experiencing modest employment growth in the markets where our business is performing better.

“Longer term, we’re picking up speed with introducing what is essentially a new way of managing our business, manufacturing our products, and measuring our performance worldwide,” he added. “The new Dana Operating System is already enabling our people to drive improved product quality, customer satisfaction, and financial performance.”

Business Highlights
Total EBITDA of $128 million in the second quarter was $15 million below 2007 results for the same period. This primarily reflected higher steel costs of $25 million (net of recovery actions), lower North American production of $22 million, unfavorable currency effects of $26 million, and reduced non-steel pricing of $6 million. These negative developments were partially offset by cost savings of $64 million.

At June 30, 2008, cash balances remained strong at $1.2 billion, with available global liquidity of $1.6 billion. Free cash flow was $38 million for the second quarter, which was largely achieved through reduced working capital of $69 million during the period.

Six-Month Results
Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $4,645 million which compares to $4,434 million for the same period in 2007. For the first six months of 2008, the company reported net income of $545 million compared to a net loss of $225 million for the same period in 2007. The six-month 2008 results include a net gain of $754 million recognized in connection with the company’s emergence from bankruptcy and application of fresh start accounting in January.

EBITDA of $275 for the first six months of 2008 improved from the $247 million for the same period in 2007, as cost reduction actions initiated during the first half of 2008, combined with previously achieved annual cost savings and pricing improvements more than offset the earnings reduction attributable to lower North American production levels and higher steel costs.

Non-GAAP Measures
In connection with Dana’s emergence from bankruptcy on January 31, 2008 and the application of fresh start accounting in accordance with the provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Statement of Position 90-7, the post-emergence results of the successor company for the five months ended June 30, 2008 and the pre-emergence results of the predecessor company for the one month ended January 31, 2008 are presented separately as successor and predecessor results in the financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). This presentation is required by GAAP as the successor company is considered to be a new entity, and the results of the new entity reflect the application of fresh start accounting. For the readers’ convenience and interest in this earnings release, we have combined the separate successor and predecessor periods to derive combined results for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The financial information accompanying this release provides the separate successor and predecessor GAAP results for the applicable periods, along with the combined results described above for the first half of 2008.

This release refers to EBITDA, which we’ve defined to be earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and restructuring. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, and the measure currently being used by Dana as the primary measure of its reportable operating segment performance. EBITDA was selected as the primary measure for operating segment performance as well as a relevant measure of Dana’s overall performance given the enhanced comparability and usefulness after application of fresh start accounting. The most significant impact to Dana’s ongoing results of operations as a result of applying fresh start accounting is higher depreciation and amortization. By using EBITDA, which is a performance measure that excludes depreciation and amortization, the comparability of results is enhanced. Management also believes that EBITDA is an important measure since the financial covenants of our primary debt agreements are EBITDA-based, and our management incentive performance programs are based, in part, on EBITDA. Because it is a non-GAAP measure, EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income or other reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The financial information accompanying this release provides a reconciliation of EBITDA for the periods presented to the reported income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes, which is a GAAP measure.
