necessary to a fair presentation of results for the unaudited interim
periods have been included.
2. In February 1997, Dana acquired the assets of Clark-Hurth Components, a
worldwide manufacturer of off-highway vehicle and equipment components,
and the Sealed Power worldwide piston ring and cylinder liner
operations and assets of SPX Corporation. In January 1998, the
acquisition of the heavy axle and brake business of Eaton Corporation
was completed. These acquisitions have been accounted for as purchases
and their results of operations have been included since the dates of
acquisition. Goodwill relating to the acquisitions is included in
Investments and Other Assets.
3. In March 1997, Dana completed the sale of its warehouse distribution
operations in the U.K., the Netherlands and Portugal to U.K.-based
Partco Group plc for Pound Sterling 103 (U.S. $164) resulting in an
after-tax gain of $45 (44 cents per share). In February 1998, Dana

7. In the first quarter of 1998, Dana sold $350 of new senior unsecured
notes consisting of $150 of 6.5% notes due March 15, 2008 and $200 of
7.0% notes due March 15, 2028. Proceeds from the issues are being used
to pay off existing short- and medium-term debt.
8. In April 1998, the Company acquired 98 percent of the share capital of
Nakata S.A. Industria e Comercio of Sao Paulo, Brazil. The acquisition
will be accounted for as a purchase and the results of operations will

9. In May 1998, the Company announced a merger agreement with Echlin Inc.,
a global producer of parts for the automotive aftermarket. Under the
agreement, each share of Echlin common stock will be exchanged for
0.9293 shares of Dana common stock; Dana will also assume $570 of net
debt. The transaction, which is conditioned on the approval of Dana and
Echlin shareholders and subject to customary regulatory approvals, is
expected to be accounted for as a pooling of interests.
Echlin reported sales of $3,569 for the fiscal year ended August 31,
1997 and $836 for the quarter ended February 28, 1998. Total assets of
Echlin were $2,382 at February 28, 1998 with net assets of $946.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------------------------------
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
(in Millions)
Net cash provided by operating activities increased $61 for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 when compared to the same three months in 1997. The
increase was attributable to higher operating net income and depreciation and
amortization expenses in 1998, partially offset by the increased change in
working capital requirements.

The acquisition of Eaton Corporation's heavy axle and brake business
was the most significant investing activity in the first quarter of 1998. Dana
also acquired the remaining 40% interest in Simesc, its Brazilian structural
components manufacturing company, and divested the Weatherhead brake hose
operations. In the first quarter of 1997, Dana acquired the assets of
Clark-Hurth Components and the piston ring and cylinder liner operations of SPX
Corporation. The Company sold its European warehouse distribution operations in
March 1997.

Capital expenditures were slightly higher than the first quarter of
1997. The Company currently anticipates capital spending for the full year to be
slightly above the 1997 level.
Net purchases of leased assets (purchases less principal payments on
leases and loans) were $33 in 1998, an increase of $21 over 1997.
Financing activities provided net cash of $139. In the quarter, Dana
sold $350 of new senior unsecured notes consisting of $150 of 6.5% notes due
March 15, 2008 and $200 of 7.0% notes due March 15, 2028. Proceeds from the
issues are being used to pay off existing short- and medium-term debt.
In January, Standard & Poor's Corporation increased Dana's corporate
credit and senior debt ratings to "A-" from "BBB+." The ratings of Dana Credit
Corporation (DCC), Dana's wholly-owned leasing subsidiary, were also raised to
"A-."
Cash dividends paid in the first quarter of 1998 were $28 compared to
$26 last year. On April 20, 1998, Dana's Board of Directors approved a 7%
increase in the dividend, payable June 15, 1998, to an annualized rate of $1.16
per share.
Dana utilizes short-term committed and uncommitted bank lines for the
issuance of commercial paper and bank direct borrowings. Dana (excluding DCC)
had committed and uncommitted borrowing lines of credit totaling approximately
$1,374 at the end of the first quarter of

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
(in Millions)
1998, while DCC's lines were $922. Dana's strong cash flows from operations,
together with worldwide credit facilities, are expected to provide adequate
liquidity to meet the Company's debt service obligations, projected capital
expenditures and working capital requirements for the balance of 1998.
Dana's management and legal counsel have reviewed the legal proceedings
to which the Company and its subsidiaries were parties as of March 31, 1998
(including, among others, those involving product liability claims and alleged
violations of environmental laws) and concluded that neither the liabilities
that may result from these legal proceedings nor the cash flows related to such
liabilities are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the
Company's liquidity, financial condition or results of operations. The Company
estimates its contingent environmental and product liabilities based upon the
most probable method of remediation or outcome considering currently enacted
laws and regulations and existing technology. Measurement of liabilities is made
on an undiscounted basis and excludes the effects of inflation. In those cases
where there is a range of equally probable remediation methods or outcomes, the
Company accrues at the lower end of the range. At March 31, 1998, the Company
had accrued $47 for product liability costs (products) and $55 for environmental
liability costs (environmental), compared to $50 for products and $55 for
environmental at December 31, 1997. The difference between the Company's minimum
and maximum estimates for contingent liabilities, while not considered material,
was $15 for products and $4 for environmental at March 31, 1998, compared to $15
for products and $1 for environmental at December 31, 1997. At March 31, 1998,
the Company had recorded (as assets) probable recoveries from insurance or third
parties in the amounts of $27 for products and $5 for environmental, compared to
$29 for products and $10 for environmental at December 31, 1997.
Restructuring and Rationalization Expenses
- ------------------------------------------
Restructuring and rationalization charges of $162 were recorded in
1997. An accrued liability of $123 remained at December 31, 1997. During the
first quarter of 1998, $17 was charged against the liability, consisting of cash
payments of $4 and non-cash charges of $13. The remaining cash outlays of $84
($52 in 1998, $16 in 1999, and $16 thereafter) generally represent employee
separation costs for the approximately 1,440 workers affected by these
activities. The balance of the accrual is non-cash and will be utilized to write
down the affected assets. Dana's liquidity and cash flows will not be materially
impacted by these actions. It is anticipated that Dana's operations over the
long term will benefit from these realignment strategies.

ITEM 2. (Continued)
- -------------------
Impact of the Year 2000
- -----------------------
The Company has established a Global Year 2000 Readiness Team to
coordinate its Year 2000 activities and has engaged an outside consultant to
assist in these efforts. The Company is finalizing its plan and timetable for
reviewing any calendar functions in its products and for determining whether its
critical business and operating systems (including those which interface with
customers, suppliers and other third parties) will function properly when
processing data for the Year 2000. At present, the Company has not determined
the total cost of addressing Year 2000 issues or the impact that any incomplete
or untimely resolution of these issues by Dana or its customers or suppliers
could have on the Company's business, financial condition or results of
operations.
Results of Operations (Three Months 1998 vs Three Months 1997)
- --------------------------------------------------------------
(in Millions)
Worldwide sales of $2,350 in the first quarter surpassed the record
first quarter of 1997 by $235 or 11%. Sales of companies acquired, net of
divestitures, amounted to $95 of the increase. Excluding such activities, sales
increased $140 or 7% during the quarter with price changes having a minimal
effect. Dana's U.S. sales increased 15% over 1997 ($131 or 9% excluding the
effect of acquisitions and divestitures). Sales from Dana's international
operations increased 2% over 1997, with the impact of divestitures equaling the
acquisition impact. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates since the first
quarter of 1997 served to reduce first quarter 1998 sales by approximately $47.
1ST QUARTER SALES

1997 1998 CHANGE
U.S. $1,528 $1,754 15
International 587 596 2
Total $2,115 $2,350 11
U.S. sales of light truck components to OE manufacturers increased 7%
over a record 1997 first quarter, with acquisitions having little impact. U.S.
sales of heavy truck OE components rose 78% over last year (14% excluding
acquisitions). Worldwide sales to manufacturers of off-highway vehicles
increased 20% and passenger car OE sales grew 2%, primarily from acquisitions.
North American sales increased 15% in the first quarter, with
acquisitions accounting for nearly three-fourths of the increase. Excluding the
net effect of acquisitions and divestitures, sales in Europe and South America
increased 9% and 6%, respectively. Asia Pacific sales were flat overall;
however, OE sales increased 10% in the first quarter, offset by sluggish
distribution sales.

ITEM 2. (Continued)
- -------
Results of Operations (Three Months 1998 vs Three Months 1997)
- --------------------------------------------------------------
(in Millions)
Dana's worldwide distribution business declined 10% in the first
quarter primarily due to the sale of the European warehouse distribution
business in March 1997. U.S. distribution sales declined 3%, while the
international distribution sales decreased 21% due to the disposition. Worldwide
automotive distribution sales were down 18%; excluding the net effect of
acquisitions and divestitures, sales increased 7%. Off-highway/industrial
distribution sales increased 1% and truck parts distribution sales fell 7%, with
a negligible impact from acquisitions/divestitures.
Revenue from lease financing and other income decreased $72 in the
first quarter of 1998. Other income recorded in 1997 included $76 relating to
the divestiture of the European warehouse distribution operations and $13 from
the sale of an investment in a leveraged lease by DCC. Lease-related revenue
increased $5 in 1998.
Dana's gross margin for the first quarter was 15.5%, compared to 13.9%
in 1997. Gross margin in 1997 was adversely affected by a charge of $26 to cost
of sales during the first quarter relating to the rationalization plan at the
Company's Perfect Circle Europe operations in France. Excluding the 1997 charge,
Dana's gross margin improved .5% in 1998.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) increased $6 in
1998. The net impact of acquisitions and divestitures helped to reduce SG&A
expenses slightly in the first quarter although not enough to offset higher
expenses at DCC due to start-up and development costs associated with new
programs and expansion. The ratio of SG&A expense to sales improved from 9.1% in
1997 to 8.5% in 1998.
Dana's operating margin for the first quarter of 1998 was 7.1% compared
to 4.8% in 1997. Excluding the previously explained charge to cost of sales
recorded in 1997, Dana's operating margin improved 1.1% in 1998.
Interest expense was $9 higher than last year due to higher average
debt levels related to acquisitions in 1997 and 1998.
Dana's first quarter 1998 effective tax rate was 41% compared to 51%
for 1997's first quarter. The effective rate is lower due to the 1997 provision
of a valuation reserve for tax benefits previously recorded in France and the
valuation reserve for tax benefits associated with the expenses recorded for the
rationalization plan at Dana's Perfect Circle Europe operations.
Equity in earnings of affiliates was higher in 1998 by $4, primarily
due to losses no longer being recorded for Korea Spicer Corporation, which was
sold in November of 1997.
Minority interest in net income of consolidated subsidiaries decreased
$2, primarily due to the lower earnings of Albarus S.A. (a Brazilian subsidiary)
and its majority-owned subsidiaries.
The Company reported record first quarter earnings of $108 which
included a $3 after-tax gain on the sale of its hydraulic brake hose business.

Results of Operations (Three Months 1998 vs Three Months 1997)
- --------------------------------------------------------------
(in Millions)
Dana's component sales to producers of light truck and sport utility
vehicles continued strong in the first quarter of 1998 as the popularity of
these vehicles remained steady. Second-quarter sales are expected to be above
last year's levels, which were affected by work stoppages at two of Dana's major
customers during the quarter in 1997. Sales to the medium and heavy truck
markets should continue significantly above last year due to the integration of
the Eaton axle operations and higher North American truck production levels.
Forward Looking Information
- ---------------------------
Any forward-looking statements contained in this report represent
management's current expectations based on present information and current
assumptions. Such statements are indicated by words such as "anticipates,"
"expects," "believes," "intends," "plans," and similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties.
Actual results could differ materially from those which are anticipated or
projected due to a number of factors. These factors include changes in business
relationships with the Company's major customers, work stoppages at major
customers, competitive pressures on sales and pricing, increases in production
or material costs that cannot be recouped in product pricing and changes in
global economic and market conditions.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
- --------------------------
The Company and its consolidated subsidiaries are parties to various
pending judicial and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course
of business. The Company's management and legal counsel have reviewed the
probable outcome of these proceedings, the costs and expenses reasonably
expected to be incurred, the availability and limits of the Company's insurance
coverage and the Company's established reserves for uninsured liabilities. While
the outcome of the pending proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, based
on its review, management believes that any liabilities that may result are not
reasonably likely to have a material effect on the Company's liquidity,
financial condition or results of operations.
Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, certain
environmental proceedings are not deemed to be ordinary routine proceedings
incidental to a company's business and are required to be reported in a
company's annual and/or quarterly reports. The Company is not currently a party
to any such proceedings.

ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
- ---------------------
On May 4, 1998, Dana and Echlin Inc. ("Echlin") announced the execution
of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 3, 1998, pursuant to which a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Dana will be merged with and into Echlin, with Echlin
as the surviving corporation. In the merger, each share of Echlin common stock
outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger will be
converted into 0.9293 of a share of Dana common stock. Based on the $59.1875
closing price of Dana stock on May 1, 1998, the transaction is valued at $55 per
share of Echlin stock or an aggregate consideration of approximately $3.5
billion. Consummation of the merger is conditioned upon, among other things, the
requisite approval of the shareholders of Dana and Echlin and customary
regulatory and governmental approvals.
In connection with the Merger Agreement, Dana and Echlin entered into a
Stock Option Agreement, dated as of May 3, 1998, pursuant to which Echlin
granted to Dana an option to purchase, under certain circumstances, up to
12,655,345 shares of Echlin common stock at a price (subject to certain
adjustments) of $55 per share. The option is exercisable upon the occurrence of
certain events, none of which has occurred as of the date hereof. If exercised,
the option would give Dana the right to acquire (before giving effect to the
exercise of the option) 19.9% of the total outstanding shares of Echlin common
stock. The Stock Option Agreement was granted by Echlin as a condition and
inducement to Dana to enter into the Merger Agreement. Under certain
circumstances, Echlin may be required to repurchase the option or the shares
acquired pursuant to the exercise thereof.
