Dana Corporation Announces Stronger First-Quarter Results
Apr 24, 2003
Restructuring Continues to Drive Improvement
TOLEDO, Ohio, April 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Dana Corporation
(NYSE: DCN) today announced first-quarter sales of $2.4 billion and net income
of $41 million, or 28 cents per share. In the first quarter of 2002, Dana
reported sales of $2.3 billion and a net loss of $229 million, or $1.54 per
share.

The increase in sales of approximately 5 percent benefited from currency
translation; however, internal growth contributed approximately two-thirds of
the amount. Net income for 2003 included one-time, after-tax gains of
$10 million, or 7 cents per share, associated with the sale of assets of Dana
Credit Corporation (DCC). The net loss reported in the first quarter of 2002
reflected the impact of the required adoption of new accounting standard FAS
142 ($220 million or $1.48 cents per share) and certain net charges associated
with the restructuring program announced in October 2001 ($37 million or 24
cents per share).
Dana Chairman and CEO Joe Magliochetti said, "Our 2003 first-quarter
performance again validates the success and importance of our restructuring
program. We expect that our performance will be further enhanced as we
conclude the final actions in this program and begin to realize the full run-
rate of the restructuring benefits later this year.
"We improved upon last year's results despite a large number of new
program launches in our Structural Solutions Group. We expect to have most of
these launch costs behind us by the end of the third quarter," he said.
"Additionally, we should benefit from the forecasted ramp-up in heavy-vehicle
production as we move through the year.
"As a result of these factors, we expect our earnings to improve during
the balance of the year. At the same time, we remain very comfortable with
our expectation of a light-vehicle build of 15.8 to 16.2 million units in
North America," he said. "Considering these factors and the $10 million in
gains we have already received from the sale of DCC assets, we are revising
our outlook for full-year net income to a range of $195 million to $215
million."
Dana Chief Financial Officer Bob Richter added, "During the quarter, we
continued to make solid progress on the sale of DCC assets, realizing proceeds
of approximately $80 million in transactions that resulted in the after-tax
gains that were included in our net income. Proceeds from these transactions
were used by DCC to reduce its indebtedness.
"At the parent company level, we continue to manage for cash, and despite
a seasonal, first-quarter increase in working capital, the percentage of
working capital to sales is improved and we remain committed to a year-on-year
reduction in working capital of $200 million," Mr. Richter said. "This will
enable us to realize our goal of reducing net debt in 2003 by $330 million to
$380 million."
Mr. Magliochetti concluded, "We believe these positive developments, in
combination with the anticipated stronger second-half earnings, will provide a
solid platform for transitioning Dana from a restructuring mode to a renewed
focus on innovation, technology, and other strategic growth opportunities."
Dana will discuss its first-quarter results in a conference call at 1 p.m.
(EDT) today. The call may be accessed via Dana's web site ( http://www.dana.com ),
