  Press Release of Dana Corporation (furnished but not filed pursuant to Item 12)

Item 9. Regulation FD Disclosure.

     During a conference call scheduled to be held at 10:00 a.m. EDT on April 21, 2004, Dana’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Michael J. Burns and Chief Financial Officer Robert C. Richter intend to present the slide presentation that is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report.

     Certain slides in this presentation include financial measures which are not presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). These include slides 13, 15, 16 and 17, which contain non-GAAP financial measures due to the inclusion of Dana Credit Corporation (DCC) on an equity basis. Exhibit 99.1 includes a quantitative reconciliation of certain of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed and the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Item 12 below and Dana’s earnings release in the attached Exhibit 99.2 also contain information about the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measure to comparable GAAP financial measures and an explanation of why management believes the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors.

Item 12. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

     On April 21, 2004, Dana issued a news release regarding its earnings for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2004. A copy of that release is being furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report.

     The earnings release includes tables showing: (i) Dana Corporation (Including Dana Credit Corporation on an Equity Basis), Condensed Statement of Income (Unaudited) — Three Months Ended March 31, 2004 and 2003; (ii) Dana Corporation (Including Dana Credit Corporation on an Equity Basis), Condensed Balance Sheet (Unaudited) — March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003; and (iii) Dana Corporation (Including Dana Credit Corporation on an Equity Basis), Cash Flow Impact on Net Debt — Three Months Ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. As GAAP requires Dana Credit Corporation (DCC) to be included on a consolidated basis, these tables including DCC on an equity basis contain non-GAAP financial measures. The earnings release also includes, for each of these tables: (i) a presentation of the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP and (ii) a quantitative reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed and the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Management believes that the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors regarding Dana’s financial condition and results of operations because management evaluates Dana’s operating segments and regions as if DCC were accounted for on the equity method of accounting. This is done because DCC is not homogenous with Dana’s manufacturing operations, its financing activities do not support the sales of the other operating segments and its financial and performance measures are inconsistent with those of the other operating segments. Moreover, the financial covenants contained in Dana’s long-term bank facility are measured with DCC accounted for on an equity basis.

     In accordance with General Instructions B.2 and B.6 of Form 8-K, the information in this Current Report, including the attached exhibits, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

DANA CORPORATION REPORTS STRONGER FIRST-QUARTER RESULTS

Increased Volume and Cost Reductions Drive Improvement

TOLEDO, Ohio, April 21, 2004 — Dana Corporation (NYSE: DCN) today announced that its 2004 first-quarter sales were $2.3 billion compared to $2.0 billion during the same period last year. Net income for the quarter totaled $63 million, or 42 cents per share, compared to net income of $41 million, or 28 cents per share, for the period in 2003. First-quarter 2004 net income included $2 million of unusual net gains on the sale of Dana Credit Corporation (DCC) assets, while income during the same period last year included $10 million in comparable gains.

“We are very pleased with the continued progress demonstrated by our first-quarter performance,” said Dana Chairman and CEO Mike Burns. “Our profit improvement was driven by a combination of higher production volumes, new business programs, and the continued realization of benefits from our restructuring and other cost-reduction efforts.”

First-quarter sales were up 17 percent over the comparable period last year. While 2004 sales benefited from $125 million of currency translation, the majority of the sales increase was driven by new business programs and higher production volumes in the principal markets served by Dana, particularly the North American heavy-truck sector.

Profit from continuing operations — those operations not included in the company’s proposed divestiture of its aftermarket business — was $50 million, or 33 cents per share, in the first quarter of 2004, compared to $36 million or 25 cents per share during the first quarter of 2003. Excluding the unusual gains from DCC asset sales, this represents an 85 percent quarter-over-quarter improvement.

“Our improved profitability was evident in a higher operating margin,” Mr. Burns said. “In fact, our margin improvement would have been even better if not for continued launch-related costs in our structures group. While these costs are not yet fully behind us, we took further actions to address the remaining issues in the first quarter and are confident that we will see improvement in the second quarter.”

Aftermarket Business Performance Improved

Dana also saw improved results from its automotive aftermarket business, which is accounted for as a “discontinued operation” and targeted for divestiture by June 30. Bottom-line performance in the aftermarket business currently held for sale improved from $10 million in the first quarter of 2003 to $13 million in the first quarter of this year. Income from discontinued operations reported for the first quarter of 2003 included a $5 million loss from the company’s engine management business, which was sold in June 2003.

Cash Flow Improved

Chief Financial Officer Bob Richter said, “While we experienced our normal seasonal build-up in working capital, the increase in net debt was less than during the comparable period last year, due to stronger earnings and the receipt of more than $70 million in tooling reimbursements from our customers.

“During the quarter, we paid off $231 million in maturing bonds,” he added. “So, exclusive of DCC’s obligations, our next scheduled maturity of long-term debt does not occur until 2008.

“DCC also reduced its debt as it continues to work down its portfolio through scheduled payments and asset sales,” he added. “During the first quarter, the DCC portfolio was reduced by another $100 million, at a net gain of $2 million. This brings the total asset reduction since we began the DCC asset sale program in October 2001 to $940 million, with a cumulative net after-tax gain of $68 million.”

Business Unit Combination Leverages Resources for Automotive Customers

Dana recently announced the combination of its Automotive Systems and Engine and Fluid Management groups into a single business unit retaining the Automotive Systems Group name. The move is designed to better leverage Dana’s resources to benefit its automotive customers, while also enhancing its own focus on profitable growth with these customers. The new Automotive Systems Group provides Dana with a focused $5.9 billion business integrating the company’s product offerings to light-vehicle original equipment manufacturers. All of Dana’s segment disclosures now reflect the combination of these business units.

Dana Reiterates Full-Year EPS Guidance

“While we are pleased with our continued progress, we recognize that we still have much work to do,” Mr. Burns said. “Specifically, we will increase our customer focus to achieve top-line growth and better leverage our capabilities in areas like purchasing to achieve greater economies of scale.

“The first quarter was not without its challenges, including launch costs and industry-wide steel surcharges,” he added. “And yet, we met our expectations in spite of these challenges. There will always be bumps in the road, but we remain committed to achieving our goal of earnings per share of at least $1.90 in 2004.”
