Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
     On March 22, 2006, Dana Corporation (Dana) issued a news release reporting its preliminary unaudited consolidated financial results for the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2005. A copy of that release is set out in the attached Exhibit 99.1.
     The news release contains certain information about Dana’s expected earnings presented on an earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) basis. EBIT is not a financial measure accepted under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP).
     For the non-GAAP EBIT information, the news release includes an attachment containing (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 EBIT financial measures provides useful information to investors due to the impact of “unusual” items on the company’s three- and twelve-month results in 2005 and 2004.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
     During a presentation to lenders scheduled to be held at 10:00 a.m. EST on March 22, 2006, Dana’s management will discuss the company’s chapter 11 bankruptcy filing, business, strategic initiatives, certain historical financial information, and matters relating to the company’s Credit Agreement for DIP (debtor-in possession) financing. Copies of the slides for this presentation are set out in the attached Exhibit 99.2.
     Slide 31 in Exhibit 99.2 includes financial measures which are not presented in accordance with GAAP. These include the segregation of unusual items from Dana’s results with Dana Credit Corporation (DCC) accounted for on an equity basis, rather than including such charges within the amounts presented on a consolidated basis which is accepted under GAAP.
     Management believes that the presentation of the results with DCC accounted for on an equity basis provides useful information to investors regarding Dana’s results of operations because management evaluates Dana’s operating segments as if DCC were accounted for on this basis. 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 bank facility are measured with DCC accounted for on an equity basis.
     For the non-GAAP financial measures, the presentation also contains slides showing (i) 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.

     Dana Corporation Reports Preliminary Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2005 Results
TOLEDO, Ohio – March 22, 2006 – Dana Corporation (OTCBB: DCNAQ) today reported preliminary, unaudited consolidated financial results for the quarter and full year ended Dec. 31, 2005.
Fourth-Quarter 2005 Results
Sales for the fourth quarter of 2005 were $2,046 million, compared to $1,988 million during the same period in 2004. The company expects to report a net loss of $376 million for the quarter, including a loss from continuing operations of $231 million. This compares to a net loss of $136 million in the fourth quarter of 2004, which included a loss from continuing operations of $72 million.
The fourth-quarter 2005 net loss will include unusual charges expected to total $230 million, after tax. These include:
    Charges of $123 million related to the previously announced planned divestitures of the company’s non-core engine hard parts, fluid products, and pump products businesses that are currently held for sale and will be classified as discontinued operations;
 
    Goodwill impairment of $53 million;
 
    Realignment charges and related asset impairments of $45 million;
 
    A change in accounting related to the recognition of asset retirement obligations of $2 million; and
 
    A loss of $7 million on asset sales.
The balance of the fourth-quarter 2005 loss – expected to total $146 million, after tax – will be from operations. Continuing operations, before unusual items, are expected to generate a loss of $126 million in the fourth quarter of 2005 as compared to income of $54 million for the same period in 2004. Discontinued operations are expected to produce a loss of $20 million, before unusual items, in the fourth quarter of 2005, which compares to a loss of $19 million in the previous year’s fourth quarter.

 


 

Full-Year 2005 Results
Sales of continuing operations for the full year 2005 were $8,611 million, compared to $7,775 million in 2004. The company expects to report a 2005 net loss of $1,602 million versus net income of $62 million in 2004. Included in the net loss for 2005 is an expected loss from continuing operations of $1,172 million compared to income from continuing operations of $72 million in 2004. In addition to the unusual fourth-quarter 2005 charges totaling $230 million, the year-on-year change in earnings is expected to be driven primarily by unusual items recorded in the third quarter of 2005. These items totaled $1,209 million and included:
    The provision of a $918 million valuation allowance to reduce Dana’s net U.S. and U.K. deferred tax assets, comprised of $835 million of deferred tax assets as of Dec. 31, 2004, and additional benefits recognized between the beginning of the year and June 30, 2005;
 
    An impairment charge of $275 million, after tax, to reduce the book value of certain assets of the non-core businesses that are now held for sale; and
 
    Aggregate charges of approximately $16 million related to the sale of Dana’s domestic fuel rail business and the dissolution of an engine bearings joint venture.
Adjusted for unusual items, continuing operations are expected to generate an after-tax loss of $215 million in 2005, compared to income of $165 million in 2004. Discontinued operations, on the same basis, are expected to report an after-tax loss of $36 million in 2005, compared to income of $48 million in the prior year. Results from 2004 included income from the automotive aftermarket businesses that were sold in November 2004.
Unusual items of $151 million, after tax, in 2004 included $171 million of charges recorded in the fourth quarter, as well as $20 million of net gains reported earlier in the year. The fourth-quarter 2004 charges included costs associated with completing the divestiture of the company’s automotive aftermarket businesses, two facility closures and other manufacturing realignments, and the repurchase of approximately $900 million of long-term debt.
Business Segment Results for Continuing Operations
Sales in the Automotive Systems Group totaled $1,414 million in the fourth quarter of 2005 and $5,941 million for the full year 2005, compared to $1,387 million and $5,384 million respectively during the fourth quarter and full year 2004. On an EBIT basis, the group expects to record income of $6 million during the fourth quarter of 2005 and $187 million for the full year 2005, compared to $49 million and $300 million during the respective periods in 2004.
Sales in the Heavy Vehicle Technologies and Systems Group totaled $626 million in the fourth quarter of 2005 and $2,640 million for the full year 2005, compared to $580 million and $2,299 million respectively during the fourth quarter and full year 2004. On an EBIT basis, the group expects to record a loss of $9 million during the fourth quarter of 2005 and income of $72 million for the full year 2005, compared to earnings of $36 million and $161 million during the respective periods in 2004.

2005 Form 10-K Filing and Investor Communications
Dana will not file its 2005 Form 10-K by the March 31, 2006, extended filing date because of the additional time required to complete its financial statements and the related non-financial disclosures, in light of the company’s bankruptcy filing on March 3, 2006, and to complete its assessment of internal control over financial reporting. The company expects to file its 2005 Form 10-K by April 30, 2006. This report will include – in addition to Dana’s audited financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations – information generally found in the proxy statement.
The company has suspended its quarterly conference calls and annual shareholder meetings until further notice.

(1)   At December 31, 2005, although we had obtained waivers of certain financial covenants through May 31, 2006, we had determined that following expiration of the waivers, it was unlikely that we would be able to comply with such covenants. As a consequence, under accounting requirements for debt classification, we classified long-term debt that is subject to acceleration in the event of non-compliance with the financial covenants as debt payable within one year.

Forward Looking Statements Statements in this presentation which are not entirely historical constitute "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements represent Dana's expectations based on our current information and assumptions. However, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, and Dana's actual results could differ materially from those that are anticipated or projected due to a number of factors. These factors include the cyclical nature of the vehicular markets we serve, particularly the heavy-duty commercial vehicle market; changes in the competitive environment in our markets due, in part, to outsourcing and consolidation by our customers; changes in national and international economic conditions that affect our markets, such as increased fuel prices and legislation regulating vehicle emissions; potential adverse effects on our operations and business from terrorism or hostilities; the strength of other currencies in the overseas countries in which we do business relative to the U.S. dollar; increases in our commodity costs (including steel, other raw materials, and energy) that we cannot recoup in our product pricing; our success in implementing our cost-savings, lean manufacturing and VA/VE (value added/value engineering) programs; changes in business relationships with our major customers and in the timing, size and continuation of their programs; the ability of our customers to maintain their market positions and achieve their projected sales and production levels; the ability of our suppliers to maintain their projected production levels and furnish critical components for our products, as well as other necessary goods and services; competitive pressures on our sales from other vehicle component suppliers; price reduction pressures from our customers; the impact of our U.S. chapter 11 bankruptcy filing on our operations, financial results and cash flows; and our ability to complete our previously announced strategic actions as contemplated (including the divestiture of our non-core engine hard parts, fluid products and pump products businesses; the operational restructuring in our Automotive Systems Group and our Commercial Vehicle business; the dissolution of our Mexican joint venture, Spicer S.A. de C.V.; the finalization of our Chinese joint venture, Dongfeng Axle Co., Ltd.); and other factors set out in our public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Situation Overview


 

Introduction On March 3, 2006 (the "Petition Date"), Dana and most of its U.S. subsidiaries filed chapter 11 in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York None of Dana's non-U.S. subsidiaries nor Dana Credit Corporation have filed chapter 11 or sought relief under any other insolvency laws Dana is comprised of over 300 corporate entities: The debtors consist of Dana Corporation and 40 of its direct and indirect subsidiaries The remaining entities are direct and indirect domestic / foreign subsidiaries of Dana that are not debtors As of the Petition Date, Dana Corporation and its subsidiaries (excluding Dana Credit Corporation) had approximately $2.5 billion in outstanding indebtedness, of which $584 million was secured debt and $1.9 billion was unsecured debt


 

Events Leading to Chapter 11 Filing Dana's chapter 11 filing was driven by several external factors that have severely impacted the Company's operations and financial performance: Continued decline in the market share of Dana's largest customers (e.g., U.S.-based OEMs, including Ford and GM), which has resulted in declining sales to them and increased pricing pressures by the OEMs Continued high commodity prices, including costs for steel and other raw materials Rising energy costs Tightening of available trade debt The factors that led to the chapter 11 filing are a symptom of a much broader downturn in the U.S. auto market, which already has taken its toll on several of the Company's suppliers and competitors including: Delphi Corporation Tower Automotive, Inc. Collins & Aikman Corporation Meridian Automotive Systems, Inc.


 

Chapter 11 Filing Objectives The Company filed chapter 11 with the following primary objectives: Improve its near term U.S. liquidity position through a DIP financing arrangement, allowing it to manufacture and deliver quality products to its customers without interruption Utilize the relief of the automatic stay and other aspects of the Bankruptcy Code to give itself time to conduct a thorough strategic review of the entire business and implement changes to improve the Company's operating and financial profile Modify the Company's capital structure through a plan of reorganization to match the Company's profit and cash generating abilities Ultimately, Dana expects to emerge from these cases as a stronger, more financially sound business with operations that lead the U.S. automotive industry and the worldwide market


 

Chapter 11 Game Plan Continue to stabilize the U.S. operations in the immediate wake of the chapter 11 filing Complete the 2005 audit and release 2005 financial results Manage relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and other stakeholders Communicate openly and frequently Utilize vendor related First Day Orders to maintain vendor support Continue to supply high quality products to our customers Conduct a thorough strategic review of the entire enterprise Develop a business plan based upon the strategic review and implement strategic initiatives Develop a plan of reorganization and emerge from chapter 11 Will be based upon the business plan developed Establish an appropriate capital structure to position the Company for future success Our suppliers and customers remain supportive of our business.


 

DIP Financing Summary On the Petition Date, Dana received Court approval to utilize up to $800 million of the DIP facility on an interim basis pending a final order, expected March 29, approving the full facility The final $1.45 billion DIP facility will consist of: $750 million Revolving Credit Facility governed by a borrowing base $700 million Term Loan In addition, Dana expects to have additional liquidity from a $100 million Canadian Revolver to be made available to Dana Canada The DIP facility will be utilized to: Repay the Company's pre-petition secured debt Issue letters-of-credit to support the Company's domestic and international operations Support working capital requirements and general corporate purposes
