BASIS OF PRESENTATION Interim Financial Statements The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Federal-Mogul Corporation ("Federal-Mogul" or the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2002. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. Certain items in the 2001 condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation used in 2002. New Accounting Pronouncements Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." This pronouncement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with an exit activity (including restructuring) or with the disposal of long-lived assets and supercedes Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3. Under SFAS No. 146, a liability is recorded for a cost associated with an exit activity when that liability is incurred and can be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 146 requires disclosure of information about exit and disposal activities, the related costs, and changes in those costs in the notes to the interim and annual financial statements that include the period in which an exit activity is initiated and in any subsequent period until the activity is completed. SFAS No. 146 is effective prospectively for exit and disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002 with earlier adoption encouraged. SFAS No. 146 does not allow for the restatement of previously issued financial statements and grandfathers the accounting for liabilities previously recorded under Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 146 to have a material impact on its financial statements. Accounting for Extraordinary Items In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections." This pronouncement, among other things, requires certain gains and losses on the extinguishment of debt previously treated as extraordinary items to be classified as income or loss from continuing operations. As a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 145 in 2002, the Company has reclassified the gain on extinguishment of debt previously recorded as extraordinary to a gain from continuing operations of $47.1 million and $72.2 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001, respectively, in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company did not provide income tax expense on these gains as the Company did not provide a tax benefit on its 2001 operating losses in the United States. Accounting for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." These pronouncements significantly change the accounting for business combinations, goodwill, and intangible assets. SFAS No. 141 eliminates the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business 7 combinations and further clarifies the criteria to recognize intangible assets separately from goodwill. The requirements of SFAS No. 141 are effective for any business combination accounted for by the purchase method that was completed after June 30, 2001. The Company made one acquisition in 2001 subsequent to June 30, 2001 which was properly accounted for using the purchase method. Under SFAS No. 142 goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are no longer amortized but are reviewed for impairment annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise). Separable intangible assets that are not deemed to have an indefinite life will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The amortization provisions of SFAS No. 142 apply to goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001. With respect to goodwill and intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001, companies were required to adopt the pronouncement in their fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2001. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142. The adoption resulted in the discontinuance of amortization of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. Furthermore, the adoption of SFAS No. 142 resulted in the reclassification of various intangible asset classes according to the measurability of their useful lives. During the second quarter of 2002, the Company, with the assistance of an outside valuation firm, performed the impairment tests of its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets required by SFAS No. 142. As a result of this assessment, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of $1,428.4 million, net of applicable income tax benefit, to reduce the carrying value of its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets to their estimated fair value. The charge is presented as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002. The Company will continue to perform an impairment review on an annual basis (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise). The first annual review will take place in the fourth quarter of 2002. Accounting for Certain Sales Incentives In May 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") issued EITF 00-14, "Accounting for Certain Sales Incentives", which changes the way companies must account for certain sales incentives offered to customers. The Company has adopted EITF 00-14, effective January 1, 2002. The adoption of EITF 00-14 required the reclassification of $1.9 million and $6.1 million, respectively, of expenditures previously recorded by the Company as selling, general, and administrative expenses to costs of products sold for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001. 2. VOLUNTARY REORGANIZATION UNDER CHAPTER 11 AND ADMINISTRATION On October 1, 2001 (the "Petition Date"), Federal-Mogul Corporation ("Company" or "Federal-Mogul") and all of its wholly-owned United States subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization (the "U.S. Restructuring") under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court"). Also on October 1, 2001, certain of the Company's United Kingdom subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and petitions for Administration (the "U.K. Restructuring") under the United Kingdom Insolvency Act of 1986 (the "Act") in the High Court of Justice, Chancery division in London, England (the "High Court"). The Company and its U.S. and U.K. subsidiaries included in the U.S. Restructuring and U.K. Restructuring are herein referred to as the "Debtors". The U.S. Restructuring and U.K. Restructuring are herein referred to as the "Restructuring Proceedings". The Chapter 11 cases of the Debtors (collectively, the "Chapter 11 Cases") have been consolidated for purposes of joint administration as In re: Federal-Mogul Global Inc., T&N Limited, et. al (Case No. 01-10578(SLR)). The Chapter 11 Cases do not include any of the Company's non-U.S. subsidiaries outside of the U.K. subsidiaries mentioned above. The Restructuring Proceedings were undertaken to resolve the Company's asbestos-related litigation in a fair and equitable manner, to protect the long-term value of the Debtors' businesses and to maintain the Debtors' leadership positions in their markets. 8 Consequences of the Restructuring Proceedings The U.S. Debtors are operating their businesses as debtors-in-possession subject to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. The U.K. Debtors are continuing to manage their operations under the supervision of an Administrator approved by the High Court. All vendors will be paid for all goods furnished and services provided after the Petition Date. However, as a consequence of the Restructuring Proceedings, all pending litigation against the Debtors as of the Petition Date is stayed (subject to certain exceptions in the case of governmental authorities), and no party may take any action to pursue or collect pre-petition claims except pursuant to an order of the Bankruptcy Court or the High Court as applicable. It is the Debtors' intention to address all pending and future asbestos-related claims and all other pre-petition claims through a unified plan of reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code or scheme of arrangement under the Act. However, it is currently difficult to predict with a high degree of certainty how a plan of reorganization or a scheme of arrangement will treat asbestos and other pre-petition claims and what impact the Restructuring Proceedings and any plan of reorganization or scheme of arrangement may have on the shares of the Company's common stock and preferred stock. The formulation and implementation of the plan of reorganization or scheme of arrangement could take a significant period of time. In the U.S., three committees, representing asbestos claimants, unsecured creditors and equity security holders have been appointed as official committees in the Chapter 11 Cases and, in accordance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, will have the right to be heard on all matters that come before the Bankruptcy Court. The Company expects that the appointed committees, together with the legal representative for the future asbestos claimants will play important roles in the Restructuring Proceedings. In the U.K., the Administrator has appointed a creditors committee, representing both asbestos claimants and general unsecured creditors. The Company expects this committee to play an important role in the negotiation of any scheme of arrangement. As provided by the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors initially had the exclusive right to propose a plan of reorganization within 120 days following the Petition Date with the Bankruptcy Court. The Debtors requested the Bankruptcy Court to extend the period of exclusivity to November 1, 2002, and the request was granted. On October 30, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court granted an additional extension of the period of exclusivity to March 3, 2003. If the Debtors fail to file a plan of reorganization during such period or any extension thereof, or if such plan of reorganization is not accepted by the requisite numbers of creditors and equity holders entitled to vote on the plan, other parties in interest in the Chapter 11 Cases may be permitted to propose their own plan(s) of reorganization for the Debtors. As provided by the Act, the Administrator will propose a scheme of arrangement to the High Court. The Company is unable to predict at this time what the treatment of creditors and equity security holders of the respective Debtors will be under any proposed plan(s) of reorganization or scheme(s) of arrangement. One alternative such plan of reorganization may provide, among other things, that all present and future asbestos-related liabilities of the Debtors will be discharged and assumed and resolved by one or more independently administered trusts established in compliance with Section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code. Such plan may also provide for the issuance of an injunction by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to Section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code that will enjoin actions against the reorganized Debtors alleging asbestos-related claims, which claims will be paid in whole or in part by one or more Section 524(g) trusts. Similar plans of reorganization have been confirmed in Chapter 11 cases of other companies involved in asbestos-related litigation. Section 524(g) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that, if certain specified conditions are satisfied, a court may issue a supplemental permanent injunction barring the assertion of asbestos-related claims against the reorganized company and channeling those claims to an independent trust. There are two possible types of U.K. schemes of arrangements. The first is under Section 425 of the Companies Act of 1985, which may involve a scheme for the reconstruction of the Company. If a majority in number representing three-fourths in value of the creditors or members or any class of them agree to the compromise or arrangement, it is binding if sanctioned by the High Court. Section 425 may be invoked where there is an Administration order in force in relation to the Company. The other possible type of scheme arises under Section 1 of the Insolvency Act of 1986 in relation to Company Voluntary Arrangements ("CVA"). If a majority in value representing more than three-fourths of the creditors agrees to the compromise or arrangement set out in the CVA proposal, it will be approved. 9 The Company is unable to predict with a high degree of certainty at this time what treatment will be accorded under any such plan(s) of reorganization to intercompany indebtedness, licenses, executory contracts, transfers of goods and services, and other intercompany arrangements, transactions and relationships that were entered into prior to the Petition Date. Various parties in the Chapter 11 cases may challenge these arrangements, transactions, and relationships, and the outcome of those challenges, if any, may have an impact on the treatment of various claims under such plan(s) of reorganization. The Bankruptcy Court has set March 3, 2003 as a bar date for asbestos property damage claims and for general and commercial claims. The Bankruptcy Court may confirm a plan of reorganization only upon making certain findings required by the Bankruptcy Code, and a plan may be confirmed over the dissent of non-accepting creditors and equity security holders if certain requirements of the Bankruptcy Code are met. The payment rights and other entitlements of pre-petition creditors and equity security holders may be substantially altered by any plan(s) of reorganization confirmed in the Chapter 11 Cases. There is no assurance that there will be sufficient assets to satisfy the Debtors' pre-petition liabilities in whole or in part, and the pre-petition creditors of some Debtors may be treated differently than those of other Debtors. Pre-petition creditors may receive under the proposed plan(s) less than 100% of the face value of their claims, and the interests of the Company's equity security holders may be substantially diluted or cancelled in whole or in part. As noted above, it is not possible at this time to predict the outcome of the Chapter 11 cases, the terms and provisions of any plan(s) of reorganization, or the effect of the Chapter 11 reorganization process on the claims of the pre-petition creditors of the Debtors or the interests of the Company's equity security holders. Chapter 11 Financing In connection with the Restructuring Proceedings, the Company entered into a $675 million debtor-in-possession ("DIP") credit facility to supplement liquidity and fund operations during the restructuring proceedings. The DIP credit facility expires in October 2003 and bears interest at either the alternate base rate ("ABR") plus 2.5 percentage points or a formula based on the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 3.5 percentage points. The ABR is the greatest of either the bank's prime rate or the base CD rate plus 1 percentage point or the fed funds rate plus 1/2 percentage point. The $675 million commitment is reduced by a portion of the proceeds received from an asset sale or business unit divestiture. The total commitment under the DIP credit facility has been reduced to $648.8 million as of September 30, 2002 due to divestitures (see Note 6). Available borrowings under the DIP credit facility are impacted by the underlying collateral at any point in time, consisting of domestic fixed assets, accounts receivable and inventory. At September 30, 2002, the Company had $339.9 million available to borrow under its DIP credit facility and had outstanding borrowings and letters of credit of $239.9 million and $13.9 million, respectively. Further, any outstanding letters of credit reduce the amount available under the facility. The borrowings were used to pay off the Company's accounts receivable securitization facility during 2001 as a result of the facility being closed in conjunction with the U.S. Restructuring. Financial Statement Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with AICPA Statement of Position 90-7 ("SOP 90-7"), "Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code" and on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. However, as a result of the Restructuring Proceedings, such realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities, without substantial adjustments and/or changes of ownership, is highly uncertain. Given this uncertainty, there is substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. While operating as debtors-in-possession under the protection of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and Administration under the Act, and subject to approval of the Bankruptcy Court, Administrator or the High Court or otherwise as permitted in the ordinary course of business, the Debtors, or some of them, may sell or otherwise dispose of assets and liquidate or settle liabilities for some amounts other than those reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Further, a plan of reorganization or scheme of arrangement could materially change the amounts and classifications in the historical consolidated financial statements. Virtually all of the Company's pre-petition debt is in default. At September 30, 2002, the Debtors' prepetition debt is classified under the caption "Liabilities subject to compromise." This includes debt outstanding of 10 $1,905.3 million under the pre-petition Senior Credit Agreements and $2,118.2 million of other outstanding debt, primarily notes payable at various unsecured rates, less capitalized debt issuance fees of $43.1 million. The carrying value of the pre-petition debt will be adjusted once it has become an allowed claim by the Court to the extent the related carrying value differs from the amount of the allowed claim. Such adjustment may be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements. As a result of the Restructuring Proceedings, the Company is in default to its affiliate holder of its convertible junior subordinated debentures and is no longer accruing interest expense or making interest payments on the debentures. As a result, the affiliate will no longer have the funds available to pay distributions on the Company-Obligated Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Securities and stopped accruing and paying such distributions on October 1, 2001. The affiliate is in default on the Company-Obligated Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Securities. The Company is a guarantor on the outstanding debentures and, as a result of the default, the Company has become a debtor to the holders of the debentures directly. This liability is a pre-petition liability. As a result, the Company has classified these securities as "Liabilities subject to compromise" in the consolidated condensed balance sheet. As reflected in the consolidated condensed financial statements, "Liabilities subject to compromise" refers to Debtors' liabilities incurred prior to the commencement of the Restructuring Proceedings. The amounts of the various liabilities that are subject to compromise are set forth below. These amounts represent the Company's estimate of known or potential pre-petition claims to be resolved in connection with the Restructuring Proceedings. Such claims remain subject to future adjustments. Future adjustments may result from (i) negotiations; (ii) actions of the Bankruptcy Court, High Court or Administrator; (iii) further developments with respect to disputed claims; (iv) rejection of executory contracts and unexpired leases; (v) the determination as to the value of any collateral securing claims; (vi) proofs of claim; or (vii) other events. Payment terms for these claims will be established in connection with the Restructuring Proceedings. Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors have filed schedules with the Bankruptcy Court setting forth the assets and liabilities of the Debtors as of the Petition Date. On October 4, 2002, the Debtors issued approximately 100,000 proof of claim forms to its current and prior employees, known creditors, vendors and other parties with whom the Debtors have previously conducted business. To the extent that recipients disagree with the claims as quantified on these forms, the recipient may file discrepancies with the Court. Differences between amounts recorded by the Debtors and claims filed by creditors will be investigated and resolved as part of the Restructuring Proceedings. The Bankruptcy Court will ultimately determine liability amounts that will be allowed for these claims in the Chapter 11 cases. A March 3, 2003 bar date has been set for the filing of proofs of claim against the Debtors. The ultimate number and allowed amount of such claims are not yet known and could result in a material adjustment to the Company's financial statements. The Debtors have received approval from the Bankruptcy Court to pay or otherwise honor certain of their pre-petition obligations, including employee wages, salaries, benefits and other employee obligations and from limited available funds, pre-petition claims of certain critical vendors, certain customer programs and warranty claims and certain other pre-petition claims. The appropriateness of using the going concern basis for its financial statements is dependent upon, among other things, (i) the Company's ability to comply with the terms of the DIP credit facility and any cash management order entered by the Bankruptcy Court in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases; (ii) the ability of the Company to maintain adequate cash on hand; (iii) the ability of the Company to generate cash from operations; (iv) confirmation of a plan(s) of reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code; and (v) the Company's ability to achieve profitability following such confirmation. Debtors' Financial Statements The condensed combined financial statements of the Debtors are presented below. These statements reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the combined Debtor subsidiaries, including certain amounts and activities between Debtors and non-Debtor subsidiaries of the Company, which are eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements. 11 The condensed combined financial statements of the Debtors are presented as follows: Federal-Mogul Corporation Debtors' Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) (Millions of Dollars)

3. INCOME TAXES For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company recorded income tax expense of $59.8 million on a loss of $38.7 million before income taxes and cumulative effect of change in accounting principle, compared to an income tax expense of $218.9 million on a loss of $670.9 million before income taxes in the same period of 2001. For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company did not provide for a tax benefit on losses generated in the United States due to the uncertainty of the realization of such benefits. Income tax expense for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002 resulted from an increase to the valuation allowances related to the implementation of SFAS No. 142 and limitations on specific interest expense deductions in the U.K. At September 30, 2002, the Company had deferred tax assets of $771.4 million, net of a valuation allowance of $539.9 million, and deferred tax liabilities of $823.3 million. As of September 30, 2002, the Company has adjusted its deferred tax and related valuation allowance accounts for the implementation of SFAS 142, for the filing of its 2001 income tax returns, and for its foreign subsidiaries. The Company has not re-evaluated its deferred tax accounts for its United States locations as all U.S. net deferred tax assets are fully reserved. Net deferred tax assets/(liabilities) are as follows (in millions):

4. OPERATIONS BY REPORTABLE SEGMENT Segment information for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 has been restated to reflect organizational changes implemented in September 2001 and July 2002. The Company is a global manufacturer and distributor with six reportable segments: Powertrain; Sealing Systems and Systems Protection; Friction; Aftermarket; Other; and Divested Operations. Powertrain products are used primarily in automotive, light truck, heavy duty, industrial, marine, agricultural, power generation and small air-cooled engine applications. The primary products of this segment include engine bearings, pistons, piston pins, rings, cylinder liners, camshafts, sintered products, and connecting rods. Sealing Systems and Systems Protection products are used in automotive, light truck, heavy duty, agricultural, off-highway, marine, railroad, high performance and industrial applications. The primary products of this segment include dynamic seals, gaskets and element resistant sleeving systems protection products. Friction products are used in automotive, heavy duty, railroad and industrial applications. The primary products of this segment include disc pads and brake shoes. Aftermarket distributes products manufactured within the above segments, or purchased, to the independent automotive and heavy-duty aftermarkets. The segment also includes manufacturing operations for North American brake, chassis, ignition, lighting, fuel and wiper products. Other includes original equipment lighting operations, Asia Pacific and other Corporate functions. Divested Operations include the historical operating results of the Company's divestitures (see Note 6). The Company has aggregated certain individual operating segments within its six reportable segments. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as that of the Company. The Company evaluates segment performance based principally on Operational EBIT. Operational EBIT is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, cumulative effect of change in accounting principle and certain nonrecurring items such as restructuring and impairment charges, Chapter 11 and Administration related reorganization expenses, gains on extinguishments of debt and gains or losses on the sales of businesses. Operational EBIT for each segment is shown below, as it is most consistent with the corresponding condensed consolidated financial statements (in millions). 16 As noted in Footnote 1, The Company adopted SFAS No. 142 effective January 1, 2002. The pro-forma effect of SFAS No. 142 on reported earnings for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 is shown in Footnote 11. The Operational EBIT amounts for 2001 below have not been adjusted for the pro-forma effects of the adoption of SFAS No. 142.

As a result of the Restructuring Proceedings, the Company stopped accruing and paying dividends on its Series C Preferred Stock. 6. DIVESTITURES During the first quarter of 2002 the Company completed the divestiture of its Signal-Stat Lighting Products business ("Signal-Stat") to Truck-Lite Co., Inc. Signal-Stat produces exterior lighting and power distribution products primarily for heavy duty and commercial vehicle markets. Signal-Stat had 2001 net sales of $53.0 million. The Company received aggregate proceeds of $20.9 million and recognized an aggregate gain of $6.6 million for this divestiture in the first quarter of 2002. The gain is included in "Other income, net" in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. In May 2002, the Company announced an agreement to sell certain United States camshaft operations to ASIMCO, an automotive components manufacturing company based in Beijing, China. The sale is subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court and certain other conditions. The operations to be sold had combined net sales of approximately $80 million in 2001. The Company does not expect to record a material gain or loss on this transactions. This transaction is expected to be completed during the fourth quarter 2002. In July 2002, the Company completed its divestiture of its automotive camshaft manufacturing plant in Jackson, Michigan, to Camshaft Machine Company, a new company formed by the facility's current management. The Company also entered into a three-year supply agreement with Camshaft Machine Company, under which Federal-Mogul will continue to distribute aftermarket camshafts produced at the Jackson facility through its extensive distribution network. The facility generated net sales of $5.9 million in 2001. The sale did not result in a material gain or loss. In August 2002, the Company signed a letter of intent to explore the sale of principally all of its original equipment lighting operations to Decoma International Inc. The sale is subject to approval by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court and to certain other conditions specified within the letter of intent. The lighting operations had net sales of 18 $176.1 million in 2001. Based upon the various conditions that must be satisfied before a transaction can be completed, the Company is unable to predict whether the sale would result in a material gain or loss. The Company is currently evaluating an offer for the purchase of its European glow plug operations. The European glow plug operations had net sales of approximately $28.5 million in 2001. Based upon the various conditions that must be satisfied before a transaction can be completed, the Company is unable to predict whether the sale would result in a material gain or loss. 7. ASBESTOS LIABILITY AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS T&N Companies Asbestos Litigation Background The Company's U.K. subsidiary, T&N Ltd., and two U.S. subsidiaries (the "T&N Companies") are among many defendants named in numerous court actions in the U.S. alleging personal injury resulting from exposure to asbestos or asbestos-containing products. T&N Ltd. is also subject to asbestos-disease litigation, to a lesser extent, in the United Kingdom and France. As of the Petition Date, T&N Ltd. was a defendant in approximately 91,000 pending personal injury claims. The two United States subsidiaries were defendants in approximately 172,000 pending personal injury claims. Pre-petition claims that were in the pipeline that were received after the Petition Date continue to be entered into the claims system and represent an immaterial amount of claims. Notice of complaints continue to be received Post-Petition and are in violation of the Automatic Stay. Recorded Liability In 2000, the Company increased its estimate of asbestos-related liability for the T&N Companies by $751 million and recorded a related insurance recoverable asset of $577 million. The revision in the estimate of probable asbestos-related liability principally resulted from a study performed by an econometric firm that specializes in these types of matters. The liability (approximately $1.3 billion at September 30, 2002) represented the Company's estimate prior to the Restructuring Proceedings for claims currently pending and those which were reasonably estimated to be asserted and paid through 2012. The Company did not provide a liability for claims that may be paid subsequent to this period as it could not reasonably estimate such claims. In estimating the liability prior to the Restructuring Proceedings, the Company made assumptions regarding the total number of claims anticipated to be received in a future period, the typical cost of settlement (which is sensitive to the industry in which the plaintiff claims exposure, the alleged disease type and the jurisdiction in which the action is being brought), the rate of receipt of claims, the settlement strategy in dealing with outstanding claims and the timing of settlements. As a result of the Restructuring Proceedings (see Note 2), all pending asbestos-related litigation against the Company in the United States and the U.K. is stayed (subject to certain exceptions in the case of governmental authorities), and no party may take any action to pursue or collect on such asbestos claims absent specific authorization of the Bankruptcy Court or the High Court. Since the Restructuring Proceedings, the Company has ceased making payments with respect to asbestos-related lawsuits. An asbestos creditors' committee has been appointed in the U.S. representing asbestos claimants with pending claims against the Company, and the Bankruptcy Court has appointed a legal representative for the interests of potential future asbestos claimants. In the U.K. a creditors' committee consisting in large part of representatives of asbestos claimants has been appointed. The Bankruptcy Court has set a bar date of March 3, 2003 for the filing of all asbestos-related property damage claims. As part of the Restructuring Proceedings, it will be determined which asbestos claims should be allowed, or compensated, and the aggregate value of such claims. The Company's obligations with respect to present and future claims could be determined through litigation in Bankruptcy Court, the High Court of Justice, Chancery Division in London, England and/or through negotiations with each of the official committees appointed; that determination may provide the basis for a plan of reorganization or scheme of arrangement. The Company previously entered into $225 million of surety on behalf of the T&N Companies to meet certain collateral requirements for asbestos indemnity obligations associated with their prior membership in the Center for Claims Resolution ("CCR"). As a result of the filing, the Company has sought declaratory and injunctive relief in an adversary proceeding filed in the Bankruptcy Court, in order to enjoin any post-petition payments to 19 asbestos claimants by the CCR and any post-petition draw by the CCR on $225 million in face amount of the surety bonds. CCR now seeks to draw on the surety bonds to fund past and future payments although the basis of such draw, its validity under the pre-petition bond terms, and whether such draw may be utilized to pay obligations of other CCR members are all disputed. Except for exchange rates, the Company has not adjusted its estimate of the asbestos liability since September 30, 2001. This liability is included in the consolidated balance sheet under the caption "Liabilities subject to compromise" at September 30, 2002 for the Company's U.S. and U.K. subsidiaries. While the Company believes that the liability recorded was appropriate for anticipated losses arising from asbestos-related claims against the T&N Companies through 2012, it is the Company's view that, as a result of the Restructuring Proceedings, there is even greater uncertainty in estimating the future asbestos liability and related insurance recovery for pending and future claims. There are significant differences in the treatment of asbestos claims in a bankruptcy proceeding as compared to the tort litigation system. Among other things, it is uncertain at this time as to the number of asbestos-related claims that will be filed in the Restructuring Proceedings; the number of future claims that will be included in a plan of reorganization; how claims for punitive damages and claims by persons with no asbestos-related physical impairment will be treated and whether such claims will be allowed; and the impact that historical settlement values for asbestos claims may have on the estimation of asbestos liability in the bankruptcy proceeding. No assurance can be given that the T&N Companies will not be subject to material additional liabilities and significant additional litigation relating to asbestos matters through 2012 or thereafter. In the event that such liabilities exceed the amounts recorded by the Company or the remaining insurance coverage, the Company's results of operations and financial condition could be materially affected. Insurance Recoverable In 1996, T&N Ltd. (formerly T&N plc) purchased for itself and its then defined global subsidiaries a (pound)500 million layer of insurance which will be triggered should the aggregate costs of claims made or brought after June 30, 1996, where the exposure occurred prior to that date, exceed (pound)690 million. During 2000, the Company concluded that the aggregate cost of the claims filed after June 30, 1996 would exceed the trigger point and accordingly recorded an insurance recoverable asset under the T&N policy of $577 million. At September 30, 2002, the recorded insurance recoverable was $593.2 million. The Company believes that based on its review of the insurance policies and advice from outside legal counsel that it is probable that the T&N Companies will be entitled to receive payment from the reinsurers for the cost of the claims in excess of the trigger point of the insurance. In December 2001, one of the three reinsurers filed suit in a London, England court to challenge the validity of its insurance contract with the T&N Companies. The Company believes that the suit is without merit and has responded accordingly. The ultimate realization of insurance proceeds is directly related to the amount of related covered claims paid by the Company. If the ultimate asbestos claims are higher than the recorded liability, the Company expects the ultimate insurance recoverable to be higher than the recorded amount, up to the cap of the insurance layer. If the ultimate asbestos claims are lower than the recorded liability, the Company expects the ultimate insurance recoverable to be lower than the recorded amount. While the Restructuring Proceedings will impact the timing and amount of the asbestos claims and the insurance recoverable, there has been no change to the recorded amounts since the Company initiated the Restructuring Proceedings. Accordingly, this asset could change significantly based upon events that occur from the Restructuring Proceedings. The Company has reviewed the financial viability and legal obligations of the three reinsurance companies involved and has concluded that currently there is little risk that the reinsurers will not be able to meet their obligation to pay, once the claims filed after June 30, 1996 exceed the (pound)690 million trigger point. The U.S. claims' costs applied against this policy are converted at a fixed exchange rate of $1.69/(pound). As such, if the market exchange rate is less then $1.69/(pound), the Company will effectively have a discount from 100% recovery on claims paid. At September 30, 2002, the $593.2 million insurance recoverable asset is net of an exchange rate discount of approximately $45 million. 20 Abex and Wagner Asbestos Litigation Background Two of the Company's businesses formerly owned by Cooper Industries, Inc. known as Abex and Wagner are involved as defendants in numerous court actions in the U.S. alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos or asbestos-containing products. These claims mainly involve friction products. As of the Petition Date, Abex and Wagner were defendants in approximately 68,000 and 37,000 pending claims, respectively. Pre-petition claims that were in the pipeline that were received after the Petition Date continue to be entered into the claims system and represent an immaterial number of claims. Notices of complaints continue to be received post-petition and are in violation of the Automatic Stay. The liability of the Company with respect to claims alleging exposure to Wagner products arises from the 1998 stock purchase from Cooper Industries of the corporate successor by merger to Wagner Electric Company; the purchased entity is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and one of the debtors in the Restructuring Proceedings. As a consequence, all claims against the Debtors, including asbestos-related claims, have been stayed. The liability of the Company with respect to claims alleging exposure to Abex products arises from a contractual liability entered into in 1994 by the predecessor to the Company whose stock the Company purchased in 1998. Pursuant to that contract, prior to the Restructuring Proceedings, the Company, through the relevant subsidiary, was liable for certain indemnity and defense payments incurred on behalf of an entity known as Pneumo Abex Corporation, the successor in interest to Abex Corporation. Effective as of the Petition Date, the Company has ceased making such payments and is currently considering whether to accept or reject the 1994 contractual liability. As mentioned above, as of the Petition Date, all pending asbestos litigation of Abex (as to the Company only) and Wagner is stayed (subject to certain exceptions in the case of governmental authorities), and no party may take any action to pursue or collect on such asbestos claims absent specific authorization of the Bankruptcy Court or the High Court. Recorded Liability The liability (approximately $216 million as of September 30, 2002) represented the Company's estimate prior to the Restructuring Proceedings for claims currently pending and those which were reasonably estimated to be asserted and paid through 2012. The Company did not provide a liability for claims that may be brought subsequent to this period as it could not reasonably estimate such claims. In estimating the liability prior to the Restructuring Proceedings, the Company made assumptions regarding the total number of claims anticipated to be received in a future period, the typical cost of settlement (which is sensitive to the industry in which the plaintiff claims exposure, the alleged disease type and the jurisdiction in which the action is being brought), the rate of receipt of claims, the settlement strategy in dealing with outstanding claims and the timing of settlements. As a result of the Restructuring Proceedings (see Note 2), all pending asbestos-related litigation is stayed as previously described for the T&N Companies. While the Company believes that the liability recorded was appropriate for anticipated losses arising from asbestos-related claims related to Abex and Wagner through 2012, it is the Company's view that, as a result of the Restructuring Proceedings, there is even greater uncertainty in estimating the future asbestos liability and related insurance recovery for pending and future claims. There are significant differences in the treatment of asbestos claims in a bankruptcy proceeding as compared to the tort litigation system. Among other things, it is uncertain at this time as to the number of asbestos-related claims that will be filed in the proceeding; the number of future claims that will be included in a plan of reorganization; how claims for punitive damages and claims by persons with no asbestos-related physical impairment will be treated and whether such claims will be allowed; and the impact historical settlement values for asbestos claims may have on the estimation of asbestos liability in the Restructuring Proceedings. No assurance can be given that the Company will not be subject to material additional liabilities and significant additional litigation relating to Abex and Wagner asbestos matters through 2012 or thereafter. In the 21 event that such liabilities exceed the amounts recorded by the Company or the remaining insurance coverage, the Company's results of operations and financial condition could be materially affected. Insurance Recoverable Abex maintained product liability insurance coverage for most of the time that it manufactured products that contained asbestos. The subsidiary of the Company that may be liable for certain indemnity and defense payments with respect to Abex has the benefit of that insurance up to the extent of that liability. Abex has been in litigation since 1982 with the insurance carriers of its primary layer of liability concerning coverage for asbestos claims. Abex also has substantial excess layer liability insurance coverage that is shared with other companies that, barring unforeseen insolvencies of excess carriers or other adverse events, should provide coverage for asbestos claims against Abex. Wagner also maintained product liability insurance coverage for some of the time that it manufactured products that contained asbestos. This coverage is shared with other third-party companies. The subsidiary of the Company that may be liable for asbestos claims against Wagner has the benefit of that insurance, subject to the rights of other potential insureds under the policies. Primary layer liability insurance coverage for asbestos claims against Wagner is the subject of an agreement with Wagner's solvent primary carriers. The agreement provides for partial reimbursement of indemnity and defense costs for Wagner asbestos claims until exhaustion of aggregate limits. Wagner also has substantial excess layer liability insurance coverage which, barring unforeseen insolvencies of excess carriers or other adverse events, should provide coverage for asbestos claims against Wagner. The ultimate realization of insurance proceeds is directly related to the amount of related covered claims paid by the Company. If the ultimate asbestos claims are higher than the recorded liability, the Company expects the ultimate insurance recoverable to be higher than the recorded amount. If the ultimate asbestos claims are lower than the recorded liability, the Company expects the ultimate insurance recoverable to be lower than the recorded amount. While the Restructuring Proceedings will impact the timing and amount of the asbestos claims and the insurance recoverable, there has been no change to the recorded amounts due to the uncertainties created by the Restructuring Proceedings. Accordingly, this asset could change materially based upon events that occur from the Restructuring Proceedings. The Company believes that based on its review of the insurance policies, the financial viability of the insurance carriers, and advice from outside legal counsel, it is probable that Abex and Wagner will realize an insurance recoverable correlating with the respective liability. Federal-Mogul and Fel-Pro Asbestos Litigation Prior to the Restructuring Proceedings the Company was also sued in its own name as one of a large number of defendants in a number of lawsuits brought by claimants alleging injury from exposure to asbestos due to its ownership of certain assets involved in gasket making. As of the Petition Date, the Company was a defendant in approximately 61,500 pre-petition pending claims. Over 40,000 of these claims were transferred to a federal court, where prior to the Restructuring Proceedings they were pending. Pre-petition claims that were in the pipeline that were received after the Petition Date continue to be entered into the claims system and represent an immaterial amount of claims. Notices of complaints continue to be received post-petition and are in violation of the Automatic Stay. Prior to the Restructuring Proceedings the Company's Fel-Pro subsidiary also was named as a defendant in a number of product liability cases involving asbestos, primarily involving gasket or packing products. Fel-Pro was a defendant in approximately 34,000 pending claims as of the Petition Date. Over 32,000 of these claims were transferred to a federal court where, prior to the Restructuring Proceedings, they were pending. The Company was defending all such claims vigorously and believed that it and Fel-Pro had substantial defenses to liability and insurance coverage for defense and indemnity. All claims alleging exposure to the products of the Company and of Fel-Pro have been stayed as a result of the Restructuring Proceedings. 22 Aggregate of Asbestos Liability and Insurance Recoverable Asset As of September 30, 2002, the Company has provided an aggregated asbestos-related liability for all of its subsidiaries and businesses of $1.6 billion. Also as of September 30, 2002, the Company has recorded an insurance recoverable asset of $763.1 million. The Company's estimate of asbestos-related liabilities for pending and expected future asbestos claims is subject to considerable uncertainty because such liabilities are influenced by numerous variables that are inherently difficult to predict. The Restructuring Proceedings significantly increase the inherent difficulties and uncertainties involved in estimating the number and cost of resolution of present and future asbestos-related claims against the Company and may have the effect of increasing the ultimate cost of the resolution of such claims. Other The Company is involved in other legal actions and claims, directly and through its subsidiaries. After taking into consideration legal counsel's evaluation of such actions, management is of the opinion that the outcomes are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, operating results, or cash flows. On April 22, 2002, the Company received notice from the New York Stock Exchange that its common stock would be delisted effective April 24, 2002. On April 24, 2002, the Company's common stock began trading on the NASD over-the-counter bulletin board market under the new ticker symbol "FDMLQ". Environmental Matters The Company is a defendant in lawsuits filed, or the recipient of administrative orders issued, in various jurisdictions pursuant to the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 ("CERCLA") or other similar national or state environmental laws. These laws require responsible parties to pay for cleaning up contamination resulting from hazardous substances that were discharged into the environment by them, or by others to whom they sent such substances for treatment or other disposition. In addition, the Company has been notified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, other national environmental agencies, and various state agencies that it may be a potentially responsible party ("PRP") under such laws for the cost of cleaning up hazardous substances pursuant to CERCLA and other national and state environmental laws. PRP designation requires the funding of site investigations and subsequent remedial activities. At most of the sites that are likely to be costliest to clean up, which are often current or former commercial waste disposal facilities to which numerous companies sent waste, the Company's exposure is expected to be limited. Despite the joint and several liability which might be imposed on the Company under CERCLA and some of the other laws pertaining to these sites, the Company's share of the total waste has generally been small. The other companies, which also sent wastes, often numbering in the hundreds or more, generally include large, solvent publicly owned companies, and in most such situations the government agencies and courts have imposed liability in some reasonable relationship to contribution of waste. In addition, the Company has identified certain present and former properties at which it may be responsible for cleaning up environmental contamination, in some cases as a result of contractual commitments. The Company is actively seeking to resolve these matters. Although difficult to quantify based on the complexity of the issues, the Company has accrued the estimated cost associated with such matters based upon current available information from site investigations and consultants. The environmental reserves were approximately $64.5 million and $62.8 million at September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. The increase in the reserve resulted primarily from the addition of new sites, offset by remediation payments made during the period. Management believes that such accruals will be adequate to cover the Company's estimated liability for its exposure in respect to such matters. As a result of the Restructuring Proceedings, $22.8 million of this reserve has been reclassified to Liabilities subject to compromise in the consolidated balance sheet, and the Company is evaluating such classification for other sites. 23 8.

9. RESTRUCTURING AND RATIONALIZATION During the first nine months of 2002, the Company recognized $28 million of restructuring and rationalization charges, net of reversals of $11 million of prior reserves, related to severance and exit costs of $19.7 million and $8.3 million, respectively. The charges related to announced manufacturing and distribution site consolidations and closures in North America and Europe for Lighting, Friction, Sealing Systems, Aftermarket and Powertrain. This amount also includes reversals of previous charges where the estimated liability was less than the existing reserve balance for a particular initiative. Total employee reductions are expected to be 2,000 of which 1,050 have been terminated as of September 30, 2002. The following table sets forth the restructuring and rationalization reserves for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 (in millions of dollars): Restructuring Rationalization Total ------------- --------------- ----- Balance of reserves at December 31, 2001 ..... $ 68.3 $ 12.8 $ 81.1 Restructuring charges ........................ 12.0 -- 12.0 Reversals ....................................

The Company issued notes in 1999 and 1998 that are guaranteed by the Guarantor Subsidiaries. The Guarantor Subsidiaries also guarantee the Company's previously existing publicly registered Medium-term notes and Senior notes. 25 T&N Industries, Inc. and Federal-Mogul Powertrain, Inc. are wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company and were acquired with the acquisition of T&N, plc. These subsidiaries became guarantors as a result of the Company's Fourth Amended and Restated Senior Credit Agreement dated December 29, 2000. In lieu of providing separate unaudited financial statements for the Guarantor Subsidiaries, the Company has included the accompanying unaudited consolidating condensed financial statements based on the Company's understanding of the Securities and Exchange Commission's interpretation and application of Rule 3-10 of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation S-X and Staff Accounting Bulletin 53. Management does not believe that separate financial statements of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are material to investors. Therefore, separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented. The consolidating condensed financial information of the Guarantor subsidiaries as of September 30, 2001 and for the period then ended has been restated to include Federal-Mogul Mystic, Inc., Felt Products Mfg.

34 Exhibit 99.2 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ------------------------------------------------- OVERVIEW Federal-Mogul Corporation (the "Company" or "Federal-Mogul") is a vehicular parts manufacturer providing innovative solutions and systems to global customers in the automotive, small engine, heavy-duty and industrial markets. The Company manufactures engine bearings, pistons, piston pins, rings, cylinder liners, camshafts, sintered products, sealing systems, systems protection sleeving products, fuel systems, wipers, lighting, ignition, brake, friction and chassis products. The Company's principal customers include many of the world's original equipment ("OE") manufacturers of such vehicles and industrial products. The Company also manufactures and supplies its products to the aftermarket. VOLUNTARY BANKRUPTCY FILING On October 1, 2001 (the "Petition Date"), Federal-Mogul Corporation and all of its wholly-owned United States subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization (the "U.S. Restructuring") under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court"). Also on October 1, 2001, certain of the Company's United Kingdom subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and petitions for Administration (the "U.K. Restructuring") under the United Kingdom Insolvency Act of 1986 (the "Act") in the High Court of Justice, Chancery division in London, England (the "High Court"). The Company and its U.S. and U.K. subsidiaries included in the U.S. Restructuring and U.K. Restructuring are herein referred to as the "Debtors". The U.S. Restructuring and U.K. Restructuring are herein referred to as the "Restructuring Proceedings". The Chapter 11 cases of the Debtors (collectively, the "Chapter 11 Cases") have been consolidated for purposes of joint administration as In re: Federal-Mogul Global Inc., T&N Limited, et al (Case No. 01-10578(SLR)). The Chapter 11 Cases do not include any of the Company's non-U.S. subsidiaries outside of the U.K. subsidiaries mentioned above. The Chapter 11 Cases are discussed in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Debtors filed for relief under Chapter 11 to address the growing demands on the Company's cash flow resulting from its multi-billion dollar asbestos liability. This liability is discussed in Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF ACCOUNTING CHANGE - SFAS NO. 142 As discussed in Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142. The adoption has resulted in the discontinuance of amortization of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. The adoption of SFAS No. 142 has also resulted in the reclassification of various intangible asset classes according to the measurability of their useful lives. During the second quarter of 2002, the Company, with the assistance of an outside valuation firm, performed the impairment tests of its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets required by SFAS No. 142. The Company's initial impairment test indicated that the carrying value of certain of its operating segments exceeded the corresponding estimated fair values, which were determined by using discounted cash flows and market multiples. The implied fair value of goodwill in these operating segments was then determined through the allocation of the fair value to the underlying assets and liabilities. The performance of certain operating units and changes in market conditions were the primary reasons for the decrease in certain operating units' estimated fair values that resulted in the impairment charge. The majority of this charge relates to the impairment of goodwill associated with the acquisitions of T&N, plc. and Cooper Automotive. The Company recorded a non-cash charge of $1,428.4 million, net of applicable income tax benefit, to reduce the carrying value of its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets to their estimated fair value as required by SFAS No. 142. The tax impact related to the charge was $36.1 million and was limited to the benefit derived from the impairment of certain intangible assets other than goodwill. The Company will continue to perform an impairment review on an annual basis (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise). The first annual review will take place in the fourth quarter of 2002. 35 CONTINUING OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of financial condition and results of operations ("MD&A") should be read in conjunction with the MD&A included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. Net Sales Consolidated net sales by reportable segment for the three-months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 were as follows (in millions of dollars): 2002 2001 Change --------- --------- --------- Powertrain ..................... $ 435.6 $ 378.4 $ 57.2 Sealing Systems and Systems Protection ........ 158.1 151.8 6.3 Friction ....................... 95.5 78.6 16.9 Aftermarket .................... 598.6 600.6 (2.0) Other, including Corporate ..... 57.4 54.4 3.0 Divested Operations ............ -- 25.0 (25.0) --------- --------- --------- Total .......................... $ 1,345.2 $ 1,288.8 $ 56.4 ========= ========= ========= Gross Margin Consolidated gross margin by reportable segment for the three-months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 was as follows (in millions of dollars): 2002 2001 Change --------- --------- --------- Powertrain ..................... $ 61.3 $ 47.5 $ 13.8 Sealing Systems and Systems Protection ........ 29.8 30.2 (0.4) Friction ....................... 23.8 13.1 10.7 Aftermarket .................... 130.8 134.7 (3.9) Other, including Corporate ..... 4.0 7.9 (3.9) Divested Operations ............ -- 3.2 (3.2) --------- --------- --------- Total .......................... $ 249.7 $ 236.6 $ 13.1 ========= ========= ========= Powertrain Net sales for the third quarter of 2002 were $435.6 million compared to $378.4 million in the same quarter of 2001. Increased OE sales volumes, particularly in North America, accounted for approximately $31 million of this increase. Favorable foreign currency of approximately $18 million more than offset the impact of customer price reductions. Sales volume from the acquisition of a Polish piston manufacturer concluded during the third quarter of 2001 principally accounted for the remainder of the increase in sales. Gross margin was $61.3 million, or 14.1% of sales, for the third quarter of 2002 compared to $47.5 million, or 12.6% of sales, for the same quarter in 2001. Increased OE sales volume and favorable product mix contributed approximately $8 million of gross margin. Productivity programs, materials sourcing reductions and favorable foreign currency more than offset the impact of customer price reductions. 36 Sealing Systems and Systems Protection Net sales for the third quarter of 2002 were $158.1 million compared to $151.8 million in the same quarter of 2001. Favorable OE sales volumes accounted for approximately $4 million of the increase. Favorable foreign currency more than offset customer price reductions. Gross margin was $29.8 million, or 18.8% of sales, for the third quarter of 2002 compared to $30.2 million, or 19.9% of sales, for the same quarter in 2001. Adverse product mix more than offset the gross margin contribution from increased sales volumes. While materials sourcing improvements provided approximately $2 million in gross margin, other productivity programs did not keep pace with inflation and customer price reductions. Friction Net sales for the third quarter of 2002 were $95.5 million compared to $78.6 million in the same quarter of 2001. Favorable OE sales volumes accounted for approximately $15 million of this increase. Favorable foreign currency more than offset the impact of customer price reductions. Gross margin was $23.8 million, or 24.9% of sales, for the third quarter of 2002 compared to $13.1 million, or 16.7% of sales, for the same quarter of 2001. The sales volume increase, net of adverse product mix, contributed approximately $4 million in gross margin. Offsetting the impact of customer price reductions was net productivity improvements of approximately $5 million following extensive restructuring efforts in North American operations in 2001. Favorable foreign currency also contributed to the increase in gross margin. Aftermarket Net sales for the third quarter of 2002 were $598.6 million compared to $600.6 million in the same quarter of 2001. Adverse sales conditions primarily attributable to the continuing decline in industry replacement trends were mostly offset by improved product availability in North America and Europe, the success of a new North American friction product introduced in 2001, and the impact of favorable foreign currency. Gross margin was $130.8 million, or 21.9% of sales, for the third quarter of 2002 compared to $134.7 million, or 22.4% of sales, for the same quarter of 2001. Lower sales volumes and adverse product mix experienced in certain product lines that are extremely sensitive to weather conditions resulted in a combined reduction in gross margin of approximately $13 million. Offsetting these volume trends were productivity programs and other cost reductions approximating $9 million. Other Other primarily includes the original equipment lighting business, Asia Pacific and other Corporate functions. Net sales for the third quarter of 2002 were $57.4 million compared to $54.4 million in the same quarter of 2001. Asia Pacific experienced increased sales volumes while lighting sales volumes were flat. Gross margin was $4.0 million, or 7.0% of sales, for the third quarter of 2002 as compared to $7.9 million, or 14.5% of sales, for the same quarter in 2001. The decrease is primarily attributable to increased employee health and welfare costs and the effects of lower than expected returns on the Company's pension plan assets included in Corporate functions. These cost increases were partially offset by materials sourcing in lighting and Asia Pacific operations, productivity in excess of inflation in both our Asia Pacific and lighting operations, the elimination of Company 401(k) matching contributions, and other spending reductions. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses Selling, general and administrative expenses were $206.4 million, or 15.3% of total sales, for the third quarter of 2002 as compared to $211.9 million, or 16.4% of total sales, for the same quarter of 2001. Corporate cost reduction initiatives and the elimination of Company 401(k) matching contributions more than offset rising employee health and welfare costs and the effect of lower than expected returns on the Company's pension plan assets. 37 Interest Expense, net Interest expense, net was $29.8 million in the third quarter of 2002 compared to $71.4 million for the same quarter of 2001. This decrease is primarily a result of not accruing or paying interest on certain pre-petition debt due to the Restructuring Proceedings and lower interest rates on post-petition borrowings. The effect of not accruing the contractual interest on pre-petition debt was $43.6 million in the quarter. The decrease was partially offset by interest expense related to the debtor-in-possession credit facility (the "DIP credit facility"). Income Tax Expense For the three months ended September 30, 2002, the Company recorded income tax expense of $9.3 million on a net loss of $64.0 million before income taxes and cumulative effect of change in accounting principle, compared to income tax expense of $178.3 million on a net loss of $631.8 million before income taxes and extraordinary items in the same period of 2001. The Company did not provide for a tax benefit on losses generated in the United States due to the uncertainty of the realization of such benefits. Income tax expense for the period resulted from an increase to the valuation allowances related to the implementation of SFAS No. 142 and limitations on specific interest expense deductions in the U.K. Amortization Expense During the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company recognized amortization expense of $2.7 million and $29.2 million, respectively. Amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2002 related primarily to developed technologies and other amortizable intangible assets. Excluded from amortization expense in this period was expense related to goodwill and trademarks that are no longer subject to amortization under SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". Restructuring Charges During the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $17.0 million and $6.1 million respectively. Charges for 2002 largely relate to the announced closure of two U.S. facilities and one European facility. Charges for 2001 largely relate to severance costs at one European facility. Chapter 11 and Administration Related Reorganization Expenses During the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company recorded Chapter 11 and administration related reorganization expenses of $33.4 million and $13.7 million respectively. Chapter 11 and administration related reorganization expenses consist of legal, financial and advisory fees, employee retention costs and other directly related internal costs. These expenses fluctuate largely based upon the necessity for professional services by third-party vendors in connection with the Restructuring Proceedings. Other Income and Expense During the three month period ended September 30, 2002, the Company recognized $0.2 million of other income compared with other expense of $86.6 million for the same period in 2001. The decrease is primarily attributable to an aggregate pre-tax loss on divestitures in 2002 of $1.9 compared with $75.1 million in 2001. 38 NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net Sales Consolidated net sales by reportable segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 were as follows (in millions of dollars): 2002 2001 Change -------- -------- ------ Powertrain ................... $1,318.5 $1,249.3 $ 69.2 Sealing Systems and Systems Protection ......... 489.3 484.7 4.6 Friction ..................... 278.1 260.5 17.6 Aftermarket .................. 1,854.6 1,863.4 (8.8) Other, including Corporate ... 177.1 163.2 13.9 Divested Operations .......... 16.0 143.8 (127.8) -------- -------- ------ Total $4,133.6 $4,164.9 $(31.3) ======== ======== ====== Gross Margin Consolidated gross margin by reportable segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 was as follows (in millions of dollars): 2002 2001 Change -------- -------- ------ Powertrain ................... $205.9 $211.3 $ (5.4) Sealing Systems and Systems Protection ......... 98.4 110.1 (11.7) Friction ..................... 76.0 46.5 29.5 Aftermarket .................. 411.1 413.2 (2.1) Other, including Corporate ... 6.9 27.1 (20.2) Divested Operations .......... 4.0 30.7 (26.7) ------ ------ ----- Total $802.3 $838.9 $(36.6) ====== ====== ====== Powertrain Net sales for the first nine months of 2002 were $1,318.5 million compared to $1,249.3 million in the same period of 2001. Increased OE sales volumes, particularly in North America, accounted for approximately $47 million of this increase. Favorable foreign currency of approximately $11 million and sales volume of approximately $17 from the acquisition of a Polish piston manufacturer concluded during the third quarter of 2001 more than offset the impact of customer price reductions. Gross margin was $205.9 million, or 15.6% of sales, for the first nine months of 2002 compared to $211.3 million, or 16.9% of sales, for the same period in 2001. The OE sales volume increase contributed approximately $4 million to gross margin, while the gross margin impact of the piston acquisition was negligible. Productivity improvements and materials sourcing of approximately $12 million combined, and favorable foreign currency were more than offset by customer price reductions. Sealing Systems and Systems Protection Net sales for the first nine months of 2002 were $489.3 million compared to $484.7 million in the same period of 2001. Favorable OE sales volumes accounted for approximately $5 million of the increase. Customer price reductions offset the impact of favorable foreign currency. 39 Gross margin was $98.4 million, or 20.1% of sales, for the first nine months of 2002 compared to $110.1 million, or 22.7% of sales, for the same quarter in 2001. Adverse product mix and customer price reductions more than offset the impact of increased sales volumes. Similar to the third quarter, materials sourcing improvements were favorable, approximating $5 million, while other productivity programs did not keep pace with inflation and customer price reductions. Friction Net sales for the first nine months of 2002 were $278.1 million compared to $260.5 million in the same period of 2001. Original equipment sales volumes accounted for approximately $19 million of this increase. Customer price reductions more than offset the impact of favorable foreign currency. Gross margin was $76.0 million, or 27.3% of sales for the first nine months of 2002 compared to $46.5 million, or 17.9% of sales, for the same period of 2001. While increased sales volumes provided approximately $4 million in gross margin, similar to the third quarter, net productivity improvements of approximately $24 million were the largest contributor to the increase in gross margin. The majority of these improvements originated in North American operations following extensive restructuring efforts in 2001. Aftermarket Net sales for the first nine months of 2002 were $1,854.6 million compared to $1,863.4 million in the same period of 2001. Adverse sales conditions primarily attributable to the continuing decline in industry replacement trends were mostly offset by improved product availability in North America and Europe, the success of a new North American friction product introduced in 2001, and improved customer pricing. Gross margin was $411.1 million, or 22.2% of sales, for the first nine months of 2002 compared to $413.2 million, or 22.2% of sales, in the same period of 2001. Improved customer pricing, productivity programs and other cost reductions in excess of inflation offset the impact of reduced sales volumes. Other Other primarily includes OE lighting business as well as Asia Pacific and other Corporate functions. Net sales for the first nine months of 2002 were $177.1 million compared to $163.2 million in the same period of 2001. The increase in net sales is primarily attributable to a significant new product launch and increased OE sales volumes in the lighting operations, partially offset by OE customer price reductions and foreign currency. Gross margin was $6.9 million, or 3.9% of sales, for the first nine months of 2002 as compared to $27.1 million, or 16.6% of sales, for the same period in 2001. Rising employee health and welfare costs and the effect of lower than expected returns on the Company's pension plan assets included in Corporate functions was approximately $24 million. These costs were partially offset by productivity improvements in lighting operations, the elimination of company 401(k) matching contributions and other spending reductions. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses Selling, general and administrative expenses were $623.6 million, or 15.1% of total sales, for the first nine months of 2002 as compared to $642.4 million, or 15.4% of total sales, for the same period of 2001. Corporate cost reduction initiatives and the elimination of Company 401(k) matching contributions more than offset rising employee health and welfare costs and the effect of lower than expected returns on the Company's pension plan assets. Interest Expense, net Interest expense, net was $90.0 million in the first nine months of 2002 compared to $235.2 million for the same period of 2001. The decrease resulted from not accruing or paying interest on certain pre-petition debt due to the Restructuring Proceedings and lower interest rates on outstanding post-petition borrowings. The effect of not 40 accruing the contractual interest on pre-petition debt was $118.7 million in the period. The decrease was partially offset by interest expense related to the DIP credit facility. Income Tax Expense Income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, was $59.8 million on a loss of $38.7 million before income taxes and cumulative effect of accounting change, compared to income tax expense of $218.9 million on a loss of $670.9 million before income taxes in the same period of 2001. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2002, the Company did not provide for a tax benefit on losses generated in the United States due to the uncertainty of the realization of such benefits. Income tax expense for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002 resulted from an increase to the valuation allowances related to the implementation of SFAS No. 142 and limitations on specific interest expense deductions in the U.K. Amortization Expense During the nine month periods ended September 30, 2002, and 2001, the Company recognized amortization expense of $9.8 million and $89.4 million, respectively. Amortization expense for 2002 related primarily to developed technologies and other amortizable intangible assets. Expense related to goodwill and trademarks was excluded from amortization expense in this period due to the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". Restructuring Charges During the nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $28.0 million and $38.0 million, respectively. Charges for 2002 principally relate to the announced closure of two U.S. facilities and one European facility, and the relocation of certain production capacity from a facility in the U.K. to a facility in the Czech Republic. Charges for 2001 principally relate to a company-wide staff reduction program and closure costs at one European facility. Chapter 11 and Administration Related Reorganization Expenses During the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company recorded Chapter 11 and administration related reorganization expenses of $76.4 million and $14.4 million, respectively. Chapter 11 and administration related reorganization expenses consist of legal, financial and advisory fees, employee retention costs and other directly related internal costs. These expenses fluctuate largely based upon the necessity of professional services provided by third-party vendors in connection with the Restructuring Proceedings. Other Income and Expense During the nine month period ended September 30, 2002, the Company recognized $14.0 million of other income compared with other expense of $65.3 million for the same period in 2001. The decrease is primarily attributable to the inclusion of an aggregate pre-tax gain on divestitures for 2002 of $4.7 compared with an aggregate loss on divestitures of $37.5 million in 2001. LITIGATION & ENVIRONMENTAL CONTINGENCIES For a summary of material litigation and environmental contingencies, refer to Note 7 of the condensed consolidated financial statements, "Asbestos Liability and Legal Proceedings". 41 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Cash Flow Provided From Operating Activities Cash flow provided from operating activities was $188.8 million for the first nine months of 2002. Among the factors impacting operating cash flows were positive operational EBIT offset by working capital movements and timing issues on various accounts. Operational EBIT is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, cumulative effect of change in accounting principle and certain nonrecurring items such as restructuring and impairment charges. Operating cash was also positively impacted by the staying of asbestos payments and certain interest on pre-petition debt and notes due to the Restructuring Proceedings. Cash Flow Used By Investing Activities Cash flow used by investing activities was $202.6 million in the first nine months of 2002. Investing cash flows were comprised of capital expenditures of $228.1 million made for property, plant and equipment to implement process improvements, increase manufacturing capacity and production, and introduce new products, offset by net proceeds from the sales of businesses of $25.5 million. The majority of these proceeds relate to the first quarter sale of its Signal-Stat Lighting Products division. Based on current forecasts, the Company anticipates that 2002 capital expenditures, exclusive of acquisitions and investments in affiliates, will approach $350 million. This spending level is dependent upon specific capital expenditure projects meeting the Company's operating and financial objectives. The Company continues to scrutinize all appropriation requests to minimize expenditures consistent with new business opportunities and economic conditions. The Company expects that funding for these expenditures will be from cash on hand, cash provided from operations and external sources as required. Cash Flow Used By Financing Activities Cash flow used by financing activities was $6.3 million for the first nine months of 2002 primarily resulting from repayments of certain international debt and a required repayment on the DIP credit facility due to proceeds received from a divested business. To meet its liquidity needs, the Company entered into a DIP credit facility in the aggregate amount of $675 million, under which it has borrowed $239.9 million and has $13.9 million outstanding on letters of credit as of September 30, 2002. At September 30, 2002 the Company had $339.9 million available for borrowings. Available borrowings under the DIP credit facility are impacted by the underlying collateral at any point in time, consisting of domestic fixed assets, accounts receivable and inventory. Further, any outstanding letters of credit reduce the amount available under the facility. The DIP credit facility has been approved by the Bankruptcy court as well as various creditors' committees. The DIP credit facility expires in October, 2003 and bears interest at either the alternate base rate ("ABR") plus 2.5 percentage points or a formula based on the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 3.5 percentage points. The ABR is the greatest of either the bank's prime rate or the base CD rate plus 1 percentage point or the fed funds rate plus 1/2 percentage point. The Company intends on renegotiating its DIP credit facility upon its expiration. The Company provided collateral in the form of a pledge of its domestic inventories, domestic accounts receivable, domestic plant, equipment and real property, and its domestic intellectual property to the DIP lenders. The DIP lenders received permission from the lenders of the Senior Credit Agreements to have priority over their collateral interest. The DIP credit facility contains restrictive covenants. The more significant of these covenants include the maintenance of certain levels of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and limitation on quarterly capital expenditures. Additional covenants include, but are not limited to, limitations on the early retirement of debt, additional borrowings, payment of dividends and the sale of assets or businesses. The Company has pledged 100% of the capital stock of certain U.S. subsidiaries, 65% of capital stock of certain foreign subsidiaries and certain intercompany loans to secure the Senior Credit Agreements of the Company. 42 Certain of such pledges also extend to the Notes, Medium-Term Notes and Senior Notes of the Company. In addition, certain subsidiaries of the Company have guaranteed the senior debt. The Company's ability to obtain cash adequate to fund its needs depends generally on the results of its operations, restructuring initiatives, the Bankruptcy Court's approval of management's plans and the availability of financing. Management believes that cash on hand and cash flow from operations, in conjunction with borrowings available from its DIP credit facility, will be sufficient to fund capital expenditures and meet its post-petition operating obligations in the short-term. In the long term, the Company believes that the benefits from the previously announced restructuring programs and the favorable resolution of its asbestos liabilities through Chapter 11 and Administration should provide adequate long-term cash flows. However, there can be no assurance in this regard or that the terms available for any future financing, if required, would be favorable to the Company. Also, certain obligations, particularly asbestos obligations, can be impacted by factors outside the Company's control. At September 30, 2002, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants under its existing DIP credit facility. Based on current forecasts, the Company expects to be in compliance through the expiration of the facility. Changes in the business environment, market factors, macroeconomic factors, and the Company's ability to achieve its forecasts and other factors outside of the Company's control, could adversely impact its ability to remain in compliance with debt covenants. If the Company were to not be in compliance at a measurement date, the Company would be required to renegotiate its facility. No assurance can be provided as to the impact of such actions. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company is subject to the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates due to its operations in foreign jurisdictions. The Company manufactures and sells its products in North America, Europe, South America, Africa and Asia. As a result, the Company's financial results could be significantly affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in the foreign markets in which the Company manufactures and distributes its products. The Company's operating results are primarily exposed to changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and European currencies. As currency exchange rates change, translation of the statements of operations of the Company's international businesses into United States dollars affects year-over-year comparability of operating results. The Company does not generally hedge operating translation risks because cash flows from international operations are generally reinvested locally. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates are generally reported as a component of shareholders' equity for the Company's foreign subsidiaries reporting in local currencies and as a component of income for its foreign subsidiaries using the U.S. dollar as the functional currency. The Company's equity was increased by $141.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2002, primarily due to cumulative translation adjustments resulting from changes in the U.S. dollar to the Euro and the British Pound. ITEM 4. DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Within the 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company required to be disclosed in the Company's periodic SEC reports. There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors which could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date the Company carried out its evaluation. 43 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION - --------------------------- Item 1.
