Dana Offers GKN Shareholders Significant Upside through Combination Benefits and Share Price Potential with Major Shareholder Support

MAUMEE, Ohio, Mar. 28, 2018 – James Kamsickas, president and chief executive officer of Dana Incorporated (NYSE: DAN), today commented on the benefits a Dana-GKN Driveline combination offers:

Superior Value

“The Dana and GKN Driveline combination clearly offers superior value to GKN shareholders. It establishes the largest global supplier of vehicle drive systems, and creates a business that is able to capitalize on the once-in-a-generation opportunity of vehicle electrification.”

Unrivaled Complementary Benefits and Cultural Fit

“Having worked closely with GKN Driveline over many decades we know the two businesses are highly complementary, offering substantial operational and revenue synergies, as well as further execution improvements, and with low integration risk. By continuing to invest substantially in R&D, we will be able to meet our customers’ long-term requirements and help shape the mobility industry for decades to come.”

Significant Upside from the Dana Share Price

“There is significant upside potential in the Dana share price. Dana is currently trading at a 22 percent discount to broker price targets, and we have recently upgraded our 2018 sales expectations based on improving market conditions and acquisition integration success. This is all before factoring in the benefits of the combination. GKN shareholders have the opportunity to share in this upside.”

GKN Driveline’s Future

“The GKN Driveline business is positioned to thrive and reach its full potential as a global leader in the combination with Dana. This is in contrast to an alternative that lacks long-term commitment to the GKN Driveline business. We therefore urge GKN shareholders now to take this opportunity and pave the way for a combination with Dana.”

Key Dana Shareholder Support – Mario Gabelli

“I have owned Dana for clients for decades. It’s a very strong company,” said Mario Gabelli, chairman and chief executive officer of GAMCO Investors and one of Dana’s five largest investors. “Jim [Kamsickas] and the current leadership team are doing everything right. I look at my investments on a long-term basis,

and I look at Dana and see a global business, with an amazing growth story, with a share price that will go up substantially as a result. With Dana, GKN shareholders are getting a company that is currently undervalued, has a strong tailwind, and will only be enhanced by this deal.”
