NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.      General

The accompanying consolidated financial statements, which have not been audited by independent auditors, were prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and such principles were applied on a basis consistent, except for reclassifications to conform with the current year's presentation, with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements in Modine's March 31, 2003 Annual Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial information furnished includes all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of Management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods. Results for the first six months of fiscal 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements. Therefore, such statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in Modine's 2003 Annual Report to Shareholders, which statements and notes were incorporated by reference in Modine's Form 10-K Report for the year ended March 31, 2003.

2.      Significant accounting policies

Stock-based compensation --
Stock based compensation is recognized by the Company using the intrinsic value method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of Modine stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. If the fair-value-based method of accounting for the stock option grants for the periods shown had been applied in accordance with SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure," Modine's net earnings /(loss) and net earnings/(loss) per share would have been changed as follows:

(In thousands, except per-share amounts)

	2003		2002		2003		2002

New Accounting Pronouncements -

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No.149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities under FASB Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No.149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, except for certain hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

Classification of Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity -
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS No.150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). SFAS No.150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

Variable Interest Entities
On October 9, 2003, the FASB issued a staff interpretation FIN No. 46-6, which deferred the effective date for applying the provisions of Interpretation No. 46 "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" until the end of the first interim or annual period ending after December 15, 2003 based on meeting certain conditions. The first condition is that the variable interest entity was created before February 1, 2003, and the second, that the public entity has not issued financial statements reporting that variable interest entity in accordance with Interpretation No. 46, other than in the disclosures required by paragraph 26 of the interpretation. As previously stated in the 2003 Annual Report, we do not believe Interpretation No. 46, as currently written, will have a material effect on our financial condition or result of operations and we continue to provide the disclosures, where appropriate, as provided for in Interpretation No. 46.

8.      Restructuring and plant closures

In the third quarter of fiscal 2002, Modine initiated a restructuring plan to reduce costs and increase future operating efficiency by consolidating a portion of its operations. As of September 26, 2003 the major restructuring, integration and cost reduction initiatives were substantially complete. The manufacturing facility that was closed as part of the restructuring plan located in St. Paul, Minnesota is actively being marketed and expected to be sold during the fiscal year. The sale of the LaPorte, Indiana manufacturing facility, closed as part of the restructuring plan, was completed on October 10, 2003 and will be recorded in the third quarter of fiscal 2004. Final personnel reductions have occurred, with the exception of legal restrictions imposed by foreign countries beyond the Company's control. The remaining accrual balance was reduced by $47,000 during fiscal 2004 as the result of an employee who was relocated to another Company facility instead of receiving separation benefits. As of September 26, 2003, 301 employees were terminated and, thus far, have received benefit payments of $3,280,000. The balance in the reserve for termination benefits at September 26, 2003 is $440,000. The remaining $21,000 liability balance in other restructuring consists of lease cancellation charges.

The following table displays the components of the accrued restructuring liability during the first six months:

10.     Financial Instruments

Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company invests excess cash in investment quality short-term liquid debt instruments. Such investments are made only in instruments issued by high quality institutions. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable. The Company sells a broad range of products that provide thermal solutions to a diverse group of customers operating throughout the world. At September 26, 2003 and March 31, 2003 approximately 50% and 52%, respectively, of the Company's trade accounts receivables were from the Company's top ten individual customers. These customers operate primarily in the automotive, truck, and heavy equipment markets and are influenced by many of the same market and general economic factors. To reduce the credit risk, the Company performs periodic credit evaluations of each customer and actively monitors their financial condition and developing business news. Collateral or advance payments are generally not required, but may be used in those cases where a substantial credit risk is identified. Credit losses to customers operating in the markets served by the Company have not been material. Total bad debt write-offs have been well below 1% of outstanding trade receivable balances for the presented periods.

11.     Foreign Exchange Contracts/Derivatives/Hedges

Modine maintains a foreign risk-management strategy that uses derivative instruments in a limited way to protect assets and obligations already held by Modine and to protect its cash flows. Derivative instruments are not used for the purpose of generating income or speculative activity. Leveraged derivatives are prohibited by Company policy. Modine's principal derivative/hedging activity in the first six months of fiscal 2004 consisted of the following:

Hedges of Net Investments in Foreign Subsidiaries
The Company has a number of investments in wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries and non-consolidated foreign joint ventures. The net assets of these subsidiaries are exposed to currency exchange-rate volatility. The Company uses non-derivative financial instruments to hedge this exposure. The currency exposure related to the net assets of Modine's European subsidiaries are managed partially through foreign-currency-denominated debt agreements entered into by the parent. For the second quarter and six months ended September 26, 2003, $0.3 million and $2.9 million, respectively,in losses related to the foreign-currency-denominated debt agreements were included in the cumulative translation adjustment.

Commitments:
At September 26, 2003, the Company had capital expenditure commitments of $33,657,000. Significant commitments include a new manufacturing facility and wind tunnel in Germany and tooling and equipment expenditures for new customer programs.
Indemnification Agreements:
Subsequent to the end of the second quarter, the Company completed the sale of its LaPorte, Indiana manufacturing facility that was being "held for sale" on the Company's Balance Sheet. As part of the sales agreement, Modine provided an indemnification agreement to the purchaser and the purchaser's lending institution relating to certain environmental matters, including potential future claims brought by third parties or governmental agencies. This limited indemnification obligation is for a period of fifteen years. The Company does not expect this indemnification agreement to have a material impact on its financial condition. As previously noted in the Company's 2003 Annual Report, the Company has obtained specific insurance coverage for environmental claims that might occur relating to the LaPorte facility and two other Company facilities. This coverage was obtained for a 10-year period and is limited to a total of $25,000,000.

14.     Subsequent Event

On October 10, 2003, the Company completed the sale of its closed LaPorte, Indiana manufacturing facility and other associated assets, consisting of property, plant and equipment. The facility had been closed as part of a restructuring that began in November of 2001 and is classified as "held for sale" on the Company's September 2003 balance sheet. The sale price consisted of $1,520,000 in cash and a $380,000 promissory note and second mortgage. The Company currently estimates that it will recognize in fiscal 2004 a pre-tax gain from the sale of the facility and other assets of approximately $550,000. As part of the sales agreement, the Company made certain contractual guarantees and representations to the purchaser. Included among those representations and guarantees is an indemnification agreement on environmental matters, which is described in Note 12 "Product warranties, guarantees and other commitments" and Note 15 "Contingencies and litigation" to the consolidated financial statements.

15.     Contingencies and Litigation

Environmental
The United States Environmental Protection Agency has designated the Company as a potentially responsible party ("PRP") for remediation of four waste disposal sites with which the Company may have had direct or indirect involvement. These sites are as follows: Elgin Salvage (Illinois); N.L./Taracorp (Illinois); Interstate Lead (Alabama); and H.O.D. Landfill (Illinois). These sites are not Company owned and allegedly contain wastes attributable to Modine from past operations. These claims are in various stages of administrative or judicial proceedings and include recovery of past governmental costs and for future investigations and remedial actions. In three instances, Modine has not received, and may never receive, documentation verifying its involvement and/or its share of waste contributions to the sites. Additionally, the dollar amounts of the claims have not been specified. At the fourth site, a settlement agreement was signed in January 2002 which included a $119,000 settlement assessment. The Company accrues costs associated with environmental matters, on an undiscounted basis, when they become probable and reasonably estimable. As of September 26, 2003, March 31, 2003 and March 31, 2002, the Company had $119,000 accrued for all respective periods, in "accrued expenses and other current liabilities" on the consolidated balance sheet to cover cleanup activities, including remediation and legal costs at the sites identified above. This accrual does not reflect any possible insurance recoveries but does reflect a reasonable estimate of cost sharing at multi-party sites. The September 26, 2003 accrual, related to the N.L. Taracorp site in Illinois, is expected to be remitted as soon as a formal request for payment is received from the EPA.

The Company also has recorded other environmental cleanup and remediation expense accruals for certain facilities located in the United States and the Netherlands. These expenditures relate to facilities where past operations followed practices and procedures that were considered acceptable under then-existing regulations, but will now require investigation and /or remedial work to ensure sufficient environmental protection. No significant changes to these accruals were recorded in the first six months of fiscal 2004.

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company completed the sale of its LaPorte, Indiana manufacturing facility, which ceased operations in fiscal 2003. As part of the sale, the Company agreed to perform certain environmental cleanup and monitoring activities and to submit an application to enter Indiana's Voluntary Remediation Program. The Company will record in the third quarter of fiscal 2004 $218,000 in remediation expense accruals to cover the anticipated costs of these activities.

Employee Agreements --
The Company has employment agreements with certain key employees that provide for compensation and certain other benefits. There have been no significant changes to these agreements during the second quarter.

Licensee Royalty Payments --
After oral hearings on July 2 and 3, 2003, the European Patent Office upheld the prior revocation of one and revoked a second of the Company's PF patents. As a result, Modine's PF technology cannot be asserted to be proprietary to the Company in Europe. This decision does not affect Modine's royalty income outside of Europe. Modine did not receive material amounts of royalty income from licensees in Europe prior to the July 2 and 3, 2003 decisions. Modine continues to evaluate the costs and benefits associated with its strategies for protecting its PF technology. The Company has accrued the expected legal costs resulting from these litigation decisions.

Other
Other recent developments concerning legal proceedings reported in the Modine Manufacturing Company Form 10-K report for the year ended March 31, 2003, are updated in Part II, Other Information, Item 1, Legal Proceedings.

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

The following discussion and analysis provides information that Management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of Modine's consolidated results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Comparison of the Second Quarter of 2003-04 with the Second Quarter of 2002-03

Second quarter net sales of $279.1 million were 1.4% higher than the $275.3 million reported in the second quarter of last year. Sales were positively impacted by net favorable currency exchange rates, primarily the stronger Euro in relation to the U.S. Dollar, of approximately $13.5 million when compared to the same quarter last year.

Revenues from the European Operations segment grew by 3.2%, or $2.5 million, from the same quarter last year. Excluding the impact of the stronger Euro in relation to the U.S. Dollar, revenues would have declined by 12.0%. Volume declines recorded in the European automotive & heavy-duty and industrial markets, were more than offset by a favorable impact in the exchange rate. In the Distributed Products segment, revenue increased 1.2%, or $1.2 million. Increased revenues in the electronics cooling markets were partially offset by small declines in Aftermarket and HVAC&R revenues. Revenues from the Original Equipment segment fell by 3.7% or $4.2 million, from the same quarter last year. Sales declines in the Original Equipment segment were impacted by reduced volume in its heavy duty and industrial business resulting from customer and product rationalization relative to the fiscal 2002 restructuring plan. In addition, smaller revenue reductions also occurred in the Truck and Automotive divisions when compared to the second quarter of the prior year.

Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, was 22.7%. This was a 1.8% decrease as a percentage of sales from the 24.5% earned in the second quarter of the previous year. Lower gross margins were reported across all segments. Improved margins occurred in the North American and European heavy duty markets as well as the Aftermarket. The Company's heavy duty markets are benefiting from the restructuring program initiated in the third quarter of fiscal 2002. These improvements were offset by declines in the remainder of the Company markets for the second quarter. Declines in the truck market were primarily driven by new program launch costs and costs associated with a program scope change.

Selling, general and administrative expenses of $60.0 million increased by 3.3% from the prior year's second quarter of $58.1 million. The impact of currency exchange rates, primarily the stronger Euro in relation to the U.S. Dollar, contributed to approximately 60 percent of the overall increase. The largest items contributing to the remaining increase were wages, fringe benefits and other personnel-related benefits, which were offset in part by reductions in litigation costs.

Income from operations of $3.3 million decreased by $7.2 million, or 68.4% over the same quarter last year. The Original Equipment segment decreased 28.8% to $13.3 million from $18.7 million a year ago. Current quarter results were negatively impacted by continued pricing pressure, new program launch costs, costs associated with a program scope change and the effects of a one and one-half week-long supplier strike at BMW. The Distributed Products segment increased 40.2% to $2.8 million from $2.0 million a year ago. The segment benefited from reductions in litigation costs, which were partially offset by lower operating income from the electronics cooling and HVAC&R markets. The European Operations segment increased 7.7% to $6.3 million from $5.8 million one year ago. Major influences were the stronger Euro in relation to the Dollar, lower selling, general and administration costs, as well as savings from the restructuring in the heavy-duty business offset in part by lower volumes in both the truck and automotive markets.

Interest expense decreased 14.9%, or $0.2 million, while average outstanding debt levels decreased $13.5 million, or approximately 11.1%, from the same quarter one year ago. The decline in the interest expense was more than the debt level decline primarily due to the exchange rate fluctuations on Euro-denominated loans.

Net non-operating income increased by $3.8 million from the same quarter one year ago. The prior year's quarter included the sale of Modine's Aftermarket operations in Canada, Modine of Canada, Ltd., resulting in a $1.7 million pre-tax loss. Royalty income was up $1.1 million from the second quarter last year. Also, the gain from the sale of property and equipment was up $0.8 million and favorable exchange gains on foreign currency transactions were up $0.6 million compared to the prior year. Equity in earnings of non-consolidated affiliates was down $0.3 million from the second quarter last year.

The provision for income taxes in the current quarter was $2.1 million compared to last years' second quarter expense of $3.3 million. The effective tax rate of 32.8% was reduced 1.7 percentage points from the prior year. The main item contributing to the overall reduction recorded in the quarter was the capital loss carryover resulting from the sale of the Company's Canadian subsidiary in the prior year. No other major items contributed to the reduction in the effective tax rate.

Net earnings for the quarter of $4.3 million, or $0.13 basic and diluted earnings per share were down when compared to last year's second quarter net earnings of $6.3 million, or $0.19 basic and diluted earnings per share. Return on shareholders' equity through the second quarter of the current fiscal year was 3.1%.

Comparison of the First Six Months of 2003-04 with the First Six Months of 2002-03

Net sales for the first six months of fiscal 2003-04 were $568.0 million, up 3.7% from the $547.6 million reported in the same period of last year. Sales were positively impacted by net favorable currency exchange rates, primarily the stronger Euro in relation to the U.S. Dollar, of approximately $34.9 million, when compared to the first six months of last year.

Overall, changes in the Company's segment sales were mixed for the first six months of the year. The European Operations segment declined by 2.2% in local currency from year-ago levels, but finished higher in dollars due to the favorable currency translation impact of $31.2 million recorded in the first half of the year. In the Original Equipment segment, sales declined 3.1%. Sales declines in the Original Equipment segment were impacted by weaker markets and the customer and product rationalization strategy in the heavy duty & industrial market. Lower sales were recorded in the automotive markets, while sales improvements were generated in the truck market. The Distributed Products segment weakened by 2.7%. Reduced Aftermarket revenues was the major contributor to the decline, and to a lesser extent, weakening was also experienced in the HVAC&R market, which was offset by marginal increases in the electronics cooling market.

Gross profit of 24.2% was down 0.6 percentage points from the first six months of the previous year. Material costs, as a percentage of sales, was the largest driver in the reduction in gross profit. Gross profits, in dollars, grew in the European Operations segment by 30%, while declining in the Distributed Products and Original Equipment segment by 10% and 6%, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative expenses of $119.1 million, or 21.0% of sales, increased 0.7 percentage points when compared to the first six months of last year. The impact of currency exchange rates, primarily the stronger Euro in relation to the U.S. Dollar, contributed to approximately 50 percent of the overall increase. The largest items contributing to the remaining increase were wages, fringe benefits and other personnel-related benefits (in particular the acceleration of retirement-related benefits associated with the retirement of the Company's Chairman, Donald R. Johnson), offset in part by reductions in litigation costs.

Operating income at $18.5 million, or 3.3% of sales, was down 1.5 percentage points from the $26.4 million, or 4.8% of sales, in the first half of the previous year. The Original Equipment segment decreased 13.7% to $33.5 million from $38.8 million one year ago. Current year results were negatively impacted by continued pricing pressure, new program launch costs, costs associated with a program scope change and a one and one-half week-long supplier strike at BMW. The Distributed Products segment decreased 64.6% to $2.5 million from $6.9 million one year ago. The Company continues to experience weakness in both the Aftermarket and electronics markets. The European Operations segment increased 52.9% to $20.0 million from $13.1 million one year ago. Major influences were the stronger Euro in relation to the Dollar, lower selling, general and administration costs, as well as savings from the restructuring in the heavy-duty business.

Interest expense declined $0.5 million, or just over 14% from the same six month-period one year ago. Average outstanding debt levels for the six months declined $23.5 million, or approximately 17.6% from the same period one year ago. The decline in the interest expense was less than the debt level decline primarily due to exchange rate fluctuations on Euro-denominated loans.

Net non-operating income increased by $5.5 million from the same six-month period one year ago. The prior year's quarter included the sale of Modine's Aftermarket operations in Canada, Modine of Canada, Ltd., resulting in a $1.7 million pre-tax loss. Royalty income was up $1.8 million from the first six months of last year. Also, the gain from the sale of property and equipment was up $1.3 million and favorable exchange gains on foreign currency transactions were up $0.9 million compared to the prior year. Equity in earnings of non-consolidated affiliates was down $0.3 million from the prior year.

The provision for income taxes in the first six months was $8.0 million compared to last years' first six months' expense of $8.9 million. The effective tax rate on earnings before the cumulative effect of accounting change of 33.9% declined by 0.9 percentage points from the 34.8% reported in the prior year. The primary reason for the overall reduction in the effective tax rate was the capital loss carryover resulting from the sale of the Company's Canadian subsidiary in the prior year.

Net earnings were $15.6 million or $0.46 basic and diluted earnings per share for the first six months of the year. This compares to earnings, before the cumulative effect of the accounting change for goodwill impairment, of $16.7 million, or $0.50 basic and $0.49 diluted earnings per share, for the first six months of the prior year. The prior year goodwill impairment charge resulted in a $(0.65) and $(0.64) reduction to basic and diluted earnings per share, respectively. Net losses for the first six months of the prior year, which include a $21.7 million after-tax charge for goodwill impairment reported as an accounting change, were $(5.0) million, or $(0.15) basic and diluted earnings per share. Return on shareholders' equity through the second quarter of the current fiscal year was 5.8%.

Outlook for the Remainder of the Year

For the remainder of the fiscal year, management expects that a stronger second half of the fiscal year will generate both sales and earnings growth on a full year basis. The program launch expenses incurred in the first half of the year will support this growth. A number of new business programs, including the BMW X3 sport utility vehicle, programs in North America with the Chrysler Group, and new/incremental engine-related programs in both North America and Europe, have been launched or will begin during the second half of the year. Growth with EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) programs is also expected, associated with additional Volkswagen business. The Company continues to manage challenges in the Aftermarket and electronics businesses. The Company also has been named a development partner in multiple incremental customer programs, which the Company expects will amount to $320 million of sales in our original equipment segments maturing over the next five years. These forward-looking statements regarding sales, earnings, and operations are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. See "Important Factors and Assumptions Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" attached hereto as Exhibit 99 and incorporated herein by reference.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Comparison between September 26, 2003 and March 31, 2003

Current assets

Cash and cash equivalents of $71.8 million decreased $5.4 million from the March 31, 2003 balance. Capital expenditures, debt reductions and the dividend payments during the six months exceeded cash provided by operating activities and the issuance of a small amount of common stock during the six months.

Trade receivables of $160.5 million were down $0.8 million over year-end.

Inventory levels of $125.1 million decreased by $5.7 million from year-end. Factors influencing the change were seasonal fluctuations in the Distributed Products segment offset in part by increases in the European Operations segment related to an automotive supplier strike and a decline in sales in the Heavy Duty market.

Deferred income taxes and other current assets declined by $5.9 million from year-end. The largest items contributing to the change were reductions in prepaid income tax assets and unbilled customer tooling, offset in part by an increase in prepaid insurance due to timing and duration of policy renewals.

The current ratio increased from 2.2 to 1 to 2.3 to 1. Net working capital decreased $0.4 million to $223.7 million. Major items influencing the change were lower cash and cash equivalents, lower inventories, and other current assets together with a reduction in the current portion of long-term debt, accounts payable and other current liabilities. These were offset in part by higher accrued compensation and employee benefits, and lower income taxes payable.

Noncurrent assets

Net property, plant and equipment, including property held for sale, of $369.6 million increased by $8.0 million over year-end. Capital expenditures and foreign currency translation during the six months were higher than depreciation and retirements. Continued expenditures for a new facility in Wackersdorf, Germany, administration building and technical center facilities elsewhere in Europe, and tooling and other new equipment purchases primarily supporting the North American truck market were among the larger capital expenditures during the first six months. Outstanding commitments for capital expenditures were $33.7 million at September 26, 2003. More than 75 percent of the commitments relate to Modine's European operations. The outstanding commitments will be financed through a combination of funds generated from operations and third-party borrowing as required.

Investments in unconsolidated affiliates of $25.5 million increased by $3.2 million from year-end. Equity earnings of affiliates were $1.0 million for the first six months of fiscal 2004. The remainder of the change resulted from a favorable currency translation effect on Modine's Brazilian joint venture company, Radiadores Visconde, Ltda., and to a lesser extent, Modine's joint venture company in France, Constructions Mecaniques Mota, S.A. in the first six months of fiscal 2004.

Goodwill increased by $0.2 million to $31.8 million. This increase was the result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Intangible assets decreased by $0.2, which is primarily amortization expense recorded in the first six months of the current year.

Deferred charges and other noncurrent assets increased by $1.2 million. The net increase was primarily the result of continuing recognition of a change in deferred pension assets.

Current Liabilities

Accounts payable and other current liabilities of $164.5 million were $8.6 million higher than in March 2003. Normal timing differences in the level of operating activity were responsible for changes in the various components. Accrued income taxes increased $1.5 million from timing differences in making estimated payments.

Debt

Outstanding debt decreased $8.2 million to $103.0 million from the March 2003 balance of $111.2 million. Domestic long-term debt decreased $10.5 million, due to scheduled payments net of final settlements on previous acquisitions and equity investments. The remaining change in domestic long-term debt of $2.9 million was due to the increase in the dollar value of the Euro-denominated loans. European long-term debt decreased by $0.7 million, which included payments of $1.0 million offset by $0.3 million in currency translation due to the stronger Euro in relation to the U.S. Dollar. The balance of long-term debt due within the next twelve months stood at $2.4 million, while there was no outstanding short-term debt at the end of the quarter.

Consolidated available lines of credit increased $0.2 million in the first six months to $143.6 million at September 26, 2003. Domestically, Modine's unused lines of credit were unchanged at $132.0 million. Foreign unused lines of credit were $11.6 million. Total debt as a percentage of shareholders' equity decreased from 21.0% at year-end to 19.1%.

Shareholders' Equity

Total shareholders' equity increased by $9.9 million to a total of $540.2 million. Retained earnings increased by $6.3 million. The additions to retained earnings included $15.6 million net earnings reported year-to-date, offset in part by $9.3 million in dividend payments. Net favorable foreign currency translation of $0.9 million was reported as the U.S. Dollar weakened against the Euro and the Brazilian Real during the first six months. Also favorably impacting shareholders' equity was an increase in paid-in capital and common stock of $2.7 million. This increase resulted from the issuance of common stock used to satisfy stock option exercises and employee stock plans requirements. Also recognized in paid-in capital were the associated tax benefits resulting from stock option exercises.

Environmental

Liquidity

The Company expects to meet its future operating and capital-expenditure needs primarily through a combination of current cash balances, internally generated funds and external financing arrangements. The Company expects to make scheduled debt repayments in fiscal 2004 with internally generated funds. The Company believes that its internally generated cash flow, together with access to external resources, will be sufficient to satisfy existing commitments and plans. In addition, management believes it is positioned to provide the necessary financial resources to take advantage of potential strategic business opportunities that arise within fiscal 2004.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

In the normal course of business, Modine is subject to market exposure from changes in foreign exchange rates, interest rates, credit risk, economic risk and commodity price risk.

Foreign Currency Risk

Modine is subject to the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates due to its operations in foreign countries. Modine has manufacturing facilities in Mexico, Taiwan, and throughout Europe. It also has equity investments in companies located in France, Japan and Brazil. Modine sells and distributes its products throughout the world. 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, distributes and sells it products. The Company's operating results are primarily exposed to changes in exchange rates between the U. S. Dollar and the European currencies, primarily the Euro. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates for the Company's foreign subsidiaries reporting in local currencies are generally reported as a component of shareholders' equity. The Company's other comprehensive loss decreased by $0.9 million for the six months ended September 26, 2003 and decreased by $20.5 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2003. As of September 26, 2003 and March 31, 2003, the Company's foreign subsidiaries had net current assets (defined as current assets less current liabilities) subject to foreign currency translation risk of $85.2 million and $79.2 million, respectively. The potential decrease in the net current assets from a hypothetical 10% adverse change in quoted foreign currency exchange rates would be approximately $8.5 million and $7.9 million, respectively. This sensitivity analysis presented assumes a parallel shift in foreign currency exchange rates. Exchange rates rarely move in the same direction. This assumption may overstate the impact of changing exchange rates on individual assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency.

The Company has certain foreign-denominated long-term debt obligations that are sensitive to foreign currency exchange rates. The following table presents the future principal cash flows and weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated by discounting the future cash flows at rates offered to the company for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities. The carrying value of the debt approximates fair value. As of September 26, 2003, the foreign-denominated long-term debt matures as follows:

	(Dollars in thousands)
Years ending March 31	F2004	F2005	F2006	F2007	F2008	Thereafter	Total
Fixed rate (Euro)	983	3,009	61,005	3,611	3,611	8,607	80,826

Average interest rate	5.00%	5.00%	5.00%	5.00%	5.00%	5.00%

Interest Rate Risk
Modine's interest rate risk policies are designed to reduce the potential volatility of earnings that could arise from changes in interest rates. The Company utilizes a mixture of debt maturities together with both fixed-rate and floating-rate debt to manage its exposure to interest rate variations related to its borrowings. The Company has not entered into any interest rate derivative instruments. The following table presents the future principal cash flows and weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated by discounting the future cash flows at rates offered to the Company for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities. The carrying value of the debt approximates fair value. As of September 26, 2003, long-term debt matures as follows:

Average interest rate	-	-	1.90%	-	1.10%	-

Credit Risk
Credit risk is the possibility of loss from a customer's failure to make payment according to contract terms. The Company's principal credit risk consists of outstanding trade receivables. Prior to granting credit, each customer is evaluated, taking into consideration the borrower's financial condition, past payment experience and credit information. After credit is granted the Company actively monitors the customer's financial condition and developing business news. Approximately 50% of the trade receivables balance at September 26, 2003 was concentrated in the Company's top ten customers. Credit losses to customers in markets served by the Company have not been material.

Economic Risk
Economic risk is the possibility of loss resulting from economic instability in certain areas of the world. The Company is continuing to monitor economic conditions in Brazil and the effect on the Company's equity investment in its 50%-owned affiliate. Year-to-date, the Brazilian Real has strengthened against U.S. Dollar and appears to have become more stable. The Company will continue to assess Brazil's economic and political stability. The Company is also continuing to monitor the economic conditions in the United States and globally resulting from current conflicts in Iraq and other areas throughout the world.

Commodity Price Risk
The Company is dependent upon the supply of certain raw materials and supplies in the production process and has from time to time entered into firm purchase commitments for copper, aluminum alloy, and natural gas. The company does not use forward contracts to hedge against changes in certain specific commodity prices of the purchase commitments outstanding.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that the information the Company must disclose in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis. The Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer have reviewed and evaluated the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") as of the end of the period covered by this report (the "Evaluation Date"). Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in bringing to their attention on a timely basis material information relating to the Company required to be included in the Company's periodic filings under the Exchange Act.

There have not been any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.


PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

In the normal course of business, Modine and its subsidiaries are named as defendants in various lawsuits and enforcement proceedings by private parties, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Environmental Protection Agency, other governmental agencies, and others in which claims, such as personal injury, property damage, or antitrust and trade regulation issues, are asserted against Modine. Modine is also subject to other liabilities that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Many of the pending damages claims are covered by insurance and when appropriate Modine accrues for uninsured liabilities. While the outcomes of these matters, including those discussed below, are uncertain, Modine does not expect that any unrecorded liabilities that may result from these matters are reasonably likely to have a material effect on Modine's liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.

The Mitsubishi and Showa Litigation

Over the last 10 years Modine and Showa Denko (and Mitsubishi Motors in some cases) have instituted various lawsuits and legal proceedings against each other pertaining to Modine's PF® Parallel Flow Technology and Showa's SC condenser. On July 14, 2000, Modine and Showa reached a settlement and license agreement. The Agreement calls for cross-licensing of these technologies between the parties. As a result of the agreement and another with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Modine received, in the first and second quarters of fiscal 2001, payments totaling $17 million representing partial settlement for past infringement of Modine's PF technology. In March 2002, Modine received an unfavorable decision from the Japanese patent office Board of Appeals, and believed and reported that it would no longer receive royalty payments in Japan related to its PF technology. However, since July 2000, Modine has been receiving royalty payments from certain Japanese competitors related to its PF patents, which expire in 2006. Pursuant to the terms of these license agreements, royalty payments continue pending any appeal. In July 2002, the Company filed notice of its appeal of the March 2002 ruling with the Tokyo High Court. A decision from the Tokyo High Court is expected in the third fiscal quarter of this year. In the event of an adverse decision, royalties currently being paid by these Japanese companies may cease. The timing of any cessation of royalty income would be primarily dependent upon any decision by Modine to commence a further appeal, and the date the adverse decision becomes final.

A final ruling in Japan does not affect Modine's royalty income outside of Japan. Modine will continue to collect royalties for PF products produced in the United States where, to date, its patents have been upheld.

In Europe, after oral hearings on July 2 and 3, 2003, the European Patent Office upheld the prior revocation of one and revoked a second of the Company's PF patents. As a result, Modine's PF technology cannot be asserted to be proprietary to the Company in Europe. This decision does not affect Modine's royalty income outside of Europe. Modine did not receive material amounts of royalty income for licenses in Europe prior to the July 2 and 3, 2003 decisions.

Modine continues to evaluate the costs and benefits associated with its strategies for protecting its PF technology. The Company has accrued the expected legal costs resulting from these litigation decisions.

Modine v. Delphi

In February 2000, Modine filed a complaint against Delphi Automotive Systems Corporation in the U.S. District Court in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, alleging infringement of its PF patent. This litigation is presently inactive and there were no developments during the second quarter.

Kawasaki Robotics (USA), Inc. v. Modine

Kawasaki Robotics brought a breach of contract action against Modine on January 24, 2001 and Modine brought a counterclaim against Kawasaki Robotics. This action arose from a contract between the parties for the construction of an arc welding system. Kawasaki Robotics and Modine filed motions seeking summary judgment. On September 30, 2003, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division, granted Kawasaki's motion and denied Modine's motion. Modine filed a Motion for Reconsideration on October 17, 2003. Kawasaki Robotics has alleged $337,000 in damages plus attorney's fees and costs. Modine's counterclaim against Kawasaki Robotics alleged damages to Modine of $75,000. In the event the Court does not grant Modine's Motion for Reconsideration, the Court will schedule a trial on damages.

Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, certain environmental proceedings are not deemed to be ordinary or routine proceedings incidental to the Company's business and are required to be reported in the Company's annual and/or quarterly reports. The Company is not currently a party to any such proceedings, except as otherwise reported in Note 15 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) herein.

Other previously reported legal proceedings have been settled or the issues resolved so as to not merit further reporting.
