HOW DO WE CONTINUE PROFITABLE GROWTH?

That is the question our worldwide leadership group addressed last summer. We asked

it again after the tragic events of September 11. The answer remains the same. We will

continue to do what BorgWarner people do best — innovate.  

Through  innovation,  we  make  cars  and  trucks  more  fuel  efficient,  easier  to  handle,  cleaner
performing, and yes, fun to drive. In BorgWarner’s 74 year history, innovation has helped us survive,
and even thrive, despite uncertain economic conditions like the one our industry experienced in 2001. 

There is no doubt that the year was a difficult one for BorgWarner and the entire auto industry.
Our sales and earnings were down. While auto sales themselves were brisk due to incentives and
zero-percent financing, automakers reduced inventories rather than produce more cars and trucks. 

I am very pleased that BorgWarner not only survived these industry conditions, but is among the
most financially healthy and well-positioned automotive suppliers today. We saw the downturn
coming  early  and  acted  aggressively.  We  initiated  a  hiring  freeze,  reduced  spending  and  con-
served cash. As a result, our cash flow was positive in each quarter of 2001, margins improved
throughout the year and we maintained our credit ratings and reduced debt. 

Ready to Go I am most proud, however, of the things we did not have to do to survive. Because
we acted early, we avoided the massive layoffs announced regularly in our industry. We did not
slash spending on research and development — the fuel for our future growth. We have an intact
organization, with $1.1 billion in anticipated new business over the next three years. We have the
right balance of engine and driveline businesses to lead powertrain technology change. We are
ready to go.

BorgWarner  has  remained  ahead  of  the  pack  and  is  poised  to  take
advantage of an industry upturn for three reasons. We have:

What  does  the  future  hold?  I  see  a  BorgWarner  that  is  meeting  the
challenge of  making  cars  and  trucks  more  fuel-efficient.  This  means
leading innovations to improve today’s internal combustion engine and
transmission,  both  of  which  are  expected  to  dominate  vehicle  power-
trains through 2020. It means working across all our businesses to track
and participate in the evolution of alternative powertrains of the future.
It  means  working  with  automakers  all  over  the  world,  matching  our
innovation with their own. We need to do these things and give drivers
vehicles  that  have  the  power,  performance,  comfort  and  affordability
that they have come to expect.

Innovation and Affordability Innovation
and affordability must go hand-in-hand. In
the  early  1980s,  it  took  12%  of  a  person’s
monthly  income  to  make  a  car  payment.
Today,  it  takes  only  7%.  This  ability  to
make vehicles more and more affordable
is what fueled the growth of the industry
in  the  1990s.  How  do  we  keep cars  and
trucks  affordable  while  maintaining  rea-
sonable  profitability?  I’d  like  to  see  more
of  what  is  beginning  to  happen  today  —
our  customers  asking  us  for  ideas,  work-
ing with us and sharing the rewards — a
cooperative effort focused on innovation.

A balanced customer portfolio is also critical for us. BorgWarner’s revenue
by customer reflects the global market share of the automakers and their
alliances. About half of our sales are to GM, Ford and DaimlerChrysler, which
together  represent  about  the  same  percentage  of  the  world  market.  As
non-U.S.-based vehicle makers gain significance, we continue to diversify
our  customer  base.  We  have  enjoyed  a  long  relationship  with  Toyota.
Honda, VW/Audi, Renault and Peugeot, as well as Hyundai — the fastest-
growing brand in the U.S. — are among our fastest-growing customers.

I  had  hoped  to  avoid  another  downturn  during  my  career,  but  when  we
saw this one coming, we decided to do it right. As a result, we are stronger
than  we  have  ever  been.  I  would  like  to  thank  the  men  and  women  of
BorgWarner  throughout  the  world  who  successfully  juggled  short-term
necessity with long-term ambition during 2001. They continue to make it
happen, just as they always have.

Future Powertrain Technology: 

A look at the year

“Fuel efficiency will be the overriding driving force in 

the evolution of powertrain and vehicle technology.”

“The internal combustion engine will be the dominant 

engine through 2020 and beyond. The application of existing

technology will result in reduced fuel consumption.”

“The transmission will become an integral part of the 

engine management system. It will dictate the engine speed

at which the required power is delivered, optimizing the 

trade-off between emissions and fuel consumption.”

“Conventional drivetrains with 42-volt stop/start operation

will be the dominant drivetrain architecture.”

“There will be a trend toward the increased use 

of turbochargers.”

MORSE TEC / TURBO SYSTEMS

H I G H L I G H T S Engine timing system and turbocharger demand continued to be strong, particularly in Europe. During the year a number of new engine programs were announced or launched.

These included major timing system programs with Honda and turbocharger business with Renault, VW/Audi, Peugeot and Ford. To serve the new engine business, facilities were opened in

Oroszlany, Hungary and Cortland, New York. The new North American engineering and technical center for turbochargers was completed in Asheville, North Carolina. Overall results were affected

by the North American automotive downturn and currency weakness.

BorgWarner’s industry-leading four-wheel drive system will be featured in 14 of this major North American

customer’s  vehicle  programs  over  the  next  three  years.  Because  this  business  represents  a  significant

addition to our customer base and is the first new four-wheel drive business with this automaker since 1987,

supplying this vital system is a strategic victory for our company. 

Winning the business was accomplished by  our  understanding  of  the  customer’s  needs,  our  engineering

experience and expertise, and our recognized technological leadership in torque distribution management.

A key strength was our ability to design a flexible product and manufacturing process that enables us to easily

customize our system to suit a wide range of this automaker’s vehicle lineup, from luxury passenger cars to

full-size SUVs.

Our sophisticated torque-transfer system is standard on the first of these, a distinctive, all-new vehicle that

expands a popular SUV brand’s product lineup and customer base with a more refined but still-rugged, full-

size SUV. The electronically controlled, full-time four-wheel drive system is integrated with the powertrain and

brake-based traction control system. This integration increases security, drivability and ease of handling. 

In the future, we foresee these important benefits becoming standard equipment on many cars — not just

SUVs  and  trucks.  By  applying  our  “on-demand”  active  all-wheel  drive  technology  on  front-wheel  drive

passenger cars and crossover vehicles, we expect to tap into a market estimated to grow nearly 200% by the

year 2010. We are a leading global designer and producer of torque distribution management systems for

four-wheel and all-wheel drive vehicles, making us exceptionally well positioned in this market.

In transmission products, BorgWarner has almost doubled its friction element business with this customer over

the last few years as more of its needs are out-sourced. As an industry leader in shift-quality components

and systems, we provide transmission engineering know-how and manufacturing expertise. Leveraging this

expertise, we have been able to increase production without adding new facilities.

Chain growth 
The number of chain driven
engines in Japan is expected
to double by 2005.

The use of chain drives by Japanese automakers worldwide is expected to grow by more than 50 percent —

from 3.6 million engines currently to about 8.5 million by 2005. BorgWarner expects to supply more than

one million of its small-pitch silent chains to our new Japanese customer for its new-generation engines. Part

of our success in winning this business depended on our ability to make an exceptional product in various

parts of the world. Production will take place at BorgWarner facilities in Japan and the United States. 

In another significant partnership with this customer, BorgWarner innovated the electronically controlled four-

wheel drive InterActive Torque Management (ITM) system for two all-new sport-utility vehicles. The industry-

first system debuted on a top-of-the-line vehicle in 2000 that was an immediate success, winning SUV of the

year and a waiting list of buyers. The second vehicle is scheduled for introduction in the summer of 2002. 

Both contracts were awarded based on our ability to match our technology to the automaker’s requirements

for exceptional vehicle stability — as well as to partner closely with them from beginning to end for successful

production launches. Our lightweight, intelligent ITM four-wheel drive system offers drivers better handling

and fuel economy, improved security and more flexibility than passive, mechanical four-wheel drive systems.

BorgWarner is adapting this electronic technology for minivans, station wagons, cars and crossover vehicles

(SUVs on car platforms). Our ITM system has become the benchmark against which other four-wheel drive

systems are measured. 

Small car boost Small cars with
engines under 2 liters are the fastest

Introduction
BorgWarner  Inc.  and  Consolidated  Subsidiaries  (the  “Company”)  is  a  leading
global  supplier  of  highly  engineered  systems  and  components  for  powertrain
applications.  Our  products  help  improve  vehicle  performance,  fuel  efficiency,
handling and air quality. Our products are manufactured and sold worldwide, pri-
marily to original equipment manufacturers (OEM) of passenger cars, sport utility
vehicles, trucks, and commercial transportation products. The Company operates
manufacturing facilities serving customers in the Americas, Europe and Asia, and
is an original equipment supplier to every major OEM in the world.

The Company made some key acquisitions in 1999. Kuhlman Corporation (Kuhlman)
was  acquired  in  March  of  1999  and  the  Eaton  Fluid  Power  Division  (Eaton)  in
October 1999. Both of these acquisitions were accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting, and the results are reflected in the accompanying infor-
mation from the date of acquisition. The turbocharger business from Kuhlman,
combined  with  our  German  turbocharger  business,  adds  to  the  Morse  TEC 
business segment’s variety of engine-related products to improve performance,
fuel  economy  and  air  quality.  The  Eaton  and  Kuhlman  powertrain  cooling  busi-
nesses were combined to form the Cooling Systems business. Substantially all of
the remaining Kuhlman businesses have been sold. 

Results of Operations
2001 vs. 2000 vs. 1999

BorgWarner reported net earnings for 2001 of $66.4 million, or $2.51 per diluted
share,  compared  to  2000  earnings  of  $94.0  million,  or  $3.54  per  diluted  share.
Excluding  restructuring  and  other  non-recurring  charges,  2001  earnings  were
$85.4 million, or $3.23 per diluted share, compared to 2000 earnings of $132.7
million, or $5.01 per diluted share. Net earnings in 1999 were $132.3 million or
$5.07 per diluted share. 

Overall, our sales declined 11.1% from 2000 and grew 7.6% between 2000 and
1999.  Excluding  sold  businesses,  sales  were  7.1%  lower  in  2001  and  10.2%
higher in 2000, than the previous year. The main cause of the sales decline was
the overall sales decline in the auto industry. As a comparison, worldwide vehicle
production decreased by 3.8% in 2001 and increased 2.8% in 2000. North American
production decreased by 9.7% in 2001 and increased by 1.3% in 2000, Japanese
production decreased by 2.3% in 2001 and increased by 2.2% in 2000 and Western
European production increased 1.4% and 1.3% in 2001 and 2000, respectively. 

Our 2001 results reflected ongoing weak production demand, the weak Euro and
Yen, production slowdowns and shutdowns across all of our operating segments,
and further deterioration in the heavy truck market. If currencies remained at their
average 2000 rates in 2001, our 2001 revenues would have been approximately

$47 million higher and our 2001 pre-tax income would have been approximately
$7 million higher. The primary growth drivers in 2000 over 1999 were relatively
strong global automotive markets, growth in engine timing systems applications,
strong demand for turbochargers, especially in European passenger cars, increased
content on new generations of transmissions, improvements in four-wheel drive
installation rates on light trucks and results from acquisitions. 

Our  outlook  as  we  head  into  2002  is  one  of  cautious  optimism  as  the  North
American automotive market continues to experience a downturn. We anticipate
the first half of 2002 will continue to be weak, but we intend to use our financial
strength to manage through the weakness by controlling costs and other spending
so that we are poised to take advantage of opportunities as the cycle turns up
again.  We  are  cautiously  optimistic  that  light  vehicle  production  will  recover
somewhat in the second half of 2002 and we will see growth from our new appli-
cations. We also saw the beginnings of a decline in Europe in the fourth quarter
of 2001 and expect this to continue throughout 2002.

BorgWarner Inc. and Consolidated Subsidiaries

Air/Fluid Systems experienced a 16.4% decrease in sales and a 63.9% decrease
in EBIT compared to the prior year. The decline in sales was primarily due to pricing
and volume weakness at DaimlerChrysler, a major Air/Fluid Systems customer.
Volume  decreases,  product  mix  issues  and  production  issues  related  to  facility
rationalizations contributed to the EBIT margin decline.

Sales increased by 3.4% and EBIT decreased 2.2%, respectively, from 1999 to
2000.  The  increase  in  sales  was  largely  attributable  to  increased  demand  for
pump products for emission control. The decline in EBIT was due to product mix
issues and costs related to facility rationalizations.

Despite a tempered outlook for 2002 due to industry conditions, we believe that
Air/Fluid Systems continues to provide opportunities for growth. We expect the
business to benefit from the trend in automatic transmissions to convert individual
solenoids to modules and “smart” modules with integrated transmission control
units. The business should also benefit from the trend toward non-conventional
automated transmissions. Other opportunities in the coming years include products
designated to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions as well as fluid pumps
for engine hydraulics supporting variable cam timing and engine lubrication. 

Cooling Systems’ sales decreased 21.6% and EBIT decreased 76.6% from the prior
year.  Cooling  Systems  was  heavily  impacted  by  the  deteriorating  North  American
market conditions since approximately 80% of the business’ sales are to customers
in North America, mainly in the sport utility (SUV), light, medium and heavy truck
markets. This performance was in line with our expectations due to weakness in
the North American heavy truck market, along with an application lost in 2001.

The increases in sales and EBIT in 2000 relative to 1999 primarily reflect full year
results for this business, which was formed in 1999.

We expect our leadership position to favorably impact results once new business
is launched and the truck markets recover, which we currently expect to happen
in 2003. Increasing fuel economy and environmental legislation in North America
and  Europe  are  expected  to  drive  demand  for  electronically  controlled  cooling
systems  to  accommodate  increasingly  higher  operating  engine  temperatures.
These same requirements are driving developing countries to embrace mechan-
ically controlled drives and, because of our full product range and manufacturing
locations in every major vehicle producing region, we expect to be well positioned
to benefit from the product life cycle in these markets. 

Morse  TEC sales  decreased  by  1.9%  and  EBIT  declined  by  6.0%.  The  North
American automotive downturn affected this business, but was partially offset by
expanded applications, particularly for engine timing systems. The European portion
of the business continued to be strong, particularly turbochargers and engine timing
systems. However, the weakness in European currencies mitigated that strength.
Results for the business were also adversely impacted by the weakness throughout
the year in the Yen. The EBIT decline was due to the previously mentioned lower
volumes and a change in mix between chain products and turbocharger products.  

Morse TEC sales increased 11.2% and EBIT increased 16.1% from 1999 to 2000,
despite  being  negatively  affected  by  the  weak  Euro,  both  for  the  turbocharger
portion and the timing chain portion of the business. The growth was due to the
strength of the European turbocharger market for gasoline and diesel passenger
cars  and  commercial  vehicles,  as  well  as  new  and  expanded  engine  timing
programs in each geographical region.  

Morse  TEC  revenue  is  expected  to  grow  in  the  coming  years  as  turbocharger
capacity  is  increased  to  meet  demand  on  direct-injected  diesel  passenger  cars
and as new generations of turbochargers for commercial diesel applications are
introduced.  The  introduction  of  additional  new  products,  including  timing  sys-
tems  for  Chrysler  overhead  cam  engines,  increased  North  American  transplant
business, Ford’s global four cylinder engine program, and drive chain for the new
Toyota hybrid engine and other Japanese and Korean applications, are expected
in the coming years. This business expects to benefit from the continued con-
version of engine timing systems from belts to chains in both Europe and Japan.
Such growth may be tempered by the current downturn.

TorqTransfer Systems’ sales decreased 5.1% and EBIT decreased 35.2% from
the prior year. This business suffered particularly in the early part of the year from
the effects of erratic scheduling, with OEMs cutting volumes at short notice in
response to the market downturn and the continued effects of the Ford Explorer/
Firestone tire issue.

The  EBIT  decline  caused  primarily  by  the  effects  of  the  downturn  was  com-
pounded  by  the  need  to  support  the  launch  of  new  programs,  discussed
below,  which  involved  substantial  engineering  effort  and  the  installation  of
new manufacturing capacity.

Sales  were  down  6.5%  and  EBIT  was  down  9.7%  in  2000  versus  1999.  The
declines were not surprising given the weak second half of 2000 and the problems
with Ford Explorer/Firestone tires, as the Explorer is a major application for this
segment.  Production  volume  of  this  vehicle  was  lower  by  4%  compared  with

1999,  with  our  sales  declining  as  a  result.  Sales  of  other  vehicles  that  use
TorqTransfer Systems’ products were also down in 2000, particularly other Ford
light trucks and SUVs. 

August 2000 saw the launch of TorqTransfer’s first InterActive Torque Management
(ITM) system application in the Acura MDX. While the system has great promise
going forward, it did not contribute significantly in 2000 due to the impact of start-
up costs and its launch late in the year. Considering the sales decline, the group
did a solid job of limiting EBIT losses. This was done by recognizing early that the
year would be one of limited growth potential and this business took a number
of actions to control costs, including restrictions on hiring, controls on non-essen-
tial spending and shifting production to maximize capacity utilization.

For 2002, this group expects to benefit from a new contract to supply transfer
cases to General Motors, as well as new business with Kia and Hyundai. In addition,
Honda has requested a significant uplift in volumes for the ITM torque manage-
ment  device  to  be  used  in  the  Honda  Pilot,  a  new  SUV.  We  expect  moderate
growth from this business next year because of these new product introductions.
Shipments against these new contracts should begin ramping up in the second
quarter,  with  more  significant  increases  in  the  third  quarter  coinciding  with  the
2003 model year. 

Transmission  Systems’ sales  decreased  2.0%,  but  EBIT  increased  5.4%  in
2001. The sales reduction was linked to volume decreases experienced by major
North American OEMs, driven by the general North American automotive industry
downturn as well as market share losses by the North American automakers to
European and Asian automakers in North America. Strong sales to European and
Asian customers partially offset the North American OEM sales decline, due to
their aforementioned export gains as well as solid domestic volume levels in their
respective regions. Increased installation rates for automated transmissions con-
tinued to grow in Europe and Asia, nearly offsetting the decline in volume in North
America. Because of significant cost cutting efforts taken in late 2000 and early 2001,
this business was able to increase EBIT, even while sales decreased. This business
was  quick  to  respond  to  the  softening  North  American  marketplace  and  took
costs out of its overhead structure to be more in line with current industry levels.

Compared to 1999, 2000 sales increased 5.8%. The sales growth came principally
from Korea, where this business benefited from both strong local build rates and
an increasing installation rate for automatic transmissions. In Europe, sales were
strong in local currency, but translated to fewer dollars because of the weakness
of the Euro. In North America sales were up for the year due to strong customer
build rates in the first half of 2000. Sales declined in the latter part of the year,

particularly  in  the  fourth  quarter.  EBIT  in  2000  was  15.0%  below  1999  levels.
Volume related improvements in Korea were more than offset by operating prob-
lems incurred in North America. The restructuring charges recognized in the third
and fourth quarters of 2000 were taken in part to restructure operations at the
Transmission Systems group. 

Transmission Systems expects to achieve moderate sales growth in 2002, linked
to volume ramp-ups in recently launched applications as well as continued global
market share increases by key customers in Europe and Asia. This sales increase
is expected in spite of current concerns about North American automotive mar-
ket demand levels, which are likely to remain soft during the first half of the year.
The business should continue to benefit from restructuring actions taken in 2000
and  2001  to  better  align  the  businesses  to  the  anticipated  level  of  activity  and
from significant cost reduction projects initiated in 2001 which will carry over into
the new year. 

Divested operations and businesses held for sale includes the results of Fuel
Systems, sold in 2001; the HVAC business, which was sold during 2000; and the
forged powder metal race business sold in 1999. These businesses did not fit our
strategic goals, and we believe our resources are better spent on our core tech-
nologies  in  highly  engineered  components  and  systems.  The  sale  of  the  Fuel
Systems business did not result in a significant gain or loss. However, we adjusted
our  carrying  value  of  this  business  in  2000  as  part  of  the  restructuring  charge
discussed below. The $5.4 million gain on the sale of the HVAC business in 2000
is included in equity in affiliates and other income. The sale of the forged powder
metal race business did not result in a significant gain or loss. Divested operations
and businesses held for sale contributed to sales of $18.0 million, $132.9 million,
and  $178.0  million  and  EBIT  of  $(0.2)  million,  $3.2  million,  and  $6.9  million  in
2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. 

Corporate,  including  equity  in  affiliates  was  a  $30.3  million  charge  in  2001,
compared to a $7.3 million charge in 2000, and a $10.1 million charge in 1999. This
amount represents headquarters expenses, equity in affiliates, and expenses not
assigned to individual segments. The main reasons for the increase in the charge
were a decrease of $10.5 million in the excess of earnings from pension assets
over the costs of the U.S. pension plans and the $5.4 million gain on the sale of the
HVAC business in 2000. Corporate headquarters expense was relatively unchanged
at $20.5 million in 2001 compared to $19.2 million in 2000.  

Our top ten customers accounted for approximately 78% of consolidated sales
compared  to  77%  in  2000  and  75%  in  1999.  Ford  continues  to  be  our  largest

customer with 30% of consolidated sales in 2001, compared to 30% and 31% in
2000 and 1999, respectively. DaimlerChrysler, our second largest customer, rep-
resented  21%  of  consolidated  sales  in  2001  and  19%  of  consolidated  sales  in
both 2000 and 1999; and General Motors accounted for 12%, 13%, and 13%, in
2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. No other customer accounted for more than
10% of consolidated sales in any of the periods presented.

Depreciation and amortization as a percentage of sales was 6.2% in 2001 versus
5.5% in 2000 and 5.0% in 1999. The 2001 and 2000 amounts were a result of a
full year’s amortization of the goodwill associated with the additional businesses
acquired  in  1999  as  well  as  the  relatively  higher  levels  of  capital  spending  in
recent years. The 2001 dollar amount was about the same as 2000; the higher
percentage of sales was due to a lower sales volume.

*To make the table comparable across years, 2001 excludes $28.4 million, or 1.2% of sales, of
non-recurring charges, and 2000 excludes $62.9 million, or 2.4% of sales, of restructuring and
other non-recurring charges.

Gross margin for 2001 was 23.4%, a decrease from the 2000 margin of 24.3%,
but a slight increase from the 1999 margin of 23.2%. The decrease in margin in
2001 is mainly due to the drop in volume, as we had fewer sales dollars to cover
our fixed plant costs. The margin increase in 2000, compared to 1999 is partly
attributable to the acquisition of higher margin operations and the divestiture of
lower margin operations in 1999. In addition, many of our core businesses also
showed gross margin improvement. In 2001, the combination of price reductions
to customers and cost increases for material, labor and overhead totaled approx-
imately $37 million, as compared to $16 million and $63 million in 2000 and 1999,
respectively. We were able to partially offset these impacts by actively pursuing
reductions from our suppliers and making changes in product design and using
process technology to remove cost and/or improve manufacturing capabilities.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) as a percentage of sales
increased to 10.0% from 9.2% and 8.3% in 2000 and 1999, respectively. Lower
sales volumes, as well as our continued commitment to research and development
(R&D) in order to capitalize on growth opportunities have caused the increases.
R&D spending was $104.5 million, or 4.4% of sales, as compared with $112.0
million, or 4.2% of sales, and $91.6 million, or 3.7% of sales in 2001, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. We continue to invest in a number of cross-segment R&D programs,
as well as a number of other key programs, all of which are necessary for short
and long-term growth. We intend to maintain our commitment to R&D investment
in the coming years while continuing to focus on controlling other SG&A costs. 

Restructuring and other non-recurring charges included $28.4 million of non-
recurring charges which were incurred in the fourth quarter of 2001. These charges
primarily include adjustments to the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities
related to businesses acquired and disposed of over the past three years. Of the
$28.4  million  of  pretax  charges,  $5.0  million  represents  non-cash  charges.
Approximately  $3.3  million  was  spent  in  2001,  $8.4  million  was  transferred  to
environmental reserves and the remaining $11.7 million is expected to be spent
over the next two years. The Company expects to fund the total cash outlay of
these actions with cash flow from operations.

Restructuring  and  other  non-recurring  charges  totaling  $62.9  million  were
incurred in the second half of 2000 in response to deteriorating market conditions.
The charges included the rationalization and integration of certain businesses and
actions taken to bring costs in line with vehicle production slowdowns in major
customer product lines. Of the $62.9 million in pretax charges, $47.3 million repre-
sented non-cash charges. Approximately  $4.4  million  was  spent  in  2000  and  the
remaining $11.2 million was spent in 2001. The actions taken as part of the 2000
restructuring  charges  are  expected  to  generate  approximately  $19  million  in
annualized savings, primarily from lower salaries and benefit costs and reduced
depreciation  charges.  These  savings  were  more  than  offset  by  lower  revenue
from the deterioration in the automotive and heavy truck markets. 

Components of the restructuring and other non-recurring charges are detailed in
the following table and discussed further below.

Severance and other benefit costs relate to the reduction of approximately 220
employees from the workforce. The reductions affect each of our operating seg-
ments, apart from TorqTransfer Systems, across each of our geographical areas,
and  across  each  major  functional  area,  including  production  and  selling  and
administrative  positions.  As  of  December  31,  2001,  approximately  $8.9  million
had been paid for severance and other benefits for the terminated employees.

Asset write-downs primarily consist of the write-off of impaired assets that will
no longer be used in production as a result of the industry downturn and the con-
solidation of certain operations. Such assets have been taken or are in process of
being taken out of productive use and are being disposed.

Loss  on  anticipated  sale  of  business  is  related  to  the  Fuel  Systems  business,
which was sold in April 2001. Fuel Systems produced metal tanks for the heavy
truck market in North America and did not fit our strategic focus on powertrain
technology. In April 2000, we announced our intention to sell this non-core busi-
ness,  which  was  acquired  as  part  of  the  vehicle  products  business  of  Kuhlman
Corporation  in  March  1999.  With  the  deterioration  of  the  North  American  heavy
truck market in the second half of 2000, the value of this business had significantly
decreased,  creating  the  $35.2  million  pre-tax  loss.  In  April  2001,  the  Company
completed the sale of its fuel systems business to an investor group led by TMB
Industries, a private equity group. Terms of the transaction did not have a significant
impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Other  exit  costs  and  non-recurring  charges  are  primarily  non-employee  related
exit costs incurred to close certain non-production facilities the Company has pre-
viously sold or no longer needs and non-recurring product quality related charges.

The 2001 non-recurring charges include $8.4 million of environmental remediation
costs  related  to  sold  businesses  and  $12.0  million  of  product  quality  costs  for
issues with products that were sold by acquired businesses prior to acquisition,
all of which have been fixed in the currently produced products.

Equity in affiliate earnings, net of tax and other income decreased by $6.8
million  from  2000  and  increased  by  $9.7  million  between  2000  and  1999.  The
2000 number included a gain on the sale of the HVAC business of $5.4 million.
The  other  part  of  the  difference  is  a  slight  decrease  in  the  results  of  our  50%
owned Japanese joint venture, NSK-Warner. Our equity in NSK-Warner’s earnings
of $15.7 million was $1.2 million lower than the prior year, which was $4.0 million
higher than  1999. NSK-Warner has continued to perform  well since the 1998
economic downturn in the Asian economy.

Interest expense and finance charges decreased by $14.8 million in 2001 and
increased by $13.4 million between 2000 and 1999. The decrease in 2001 was due
to lower interest rates as well as lower debt levels, as the Company used cash gen-
erated in 2000 and 2001 to pay off debt. In 2001 the Company paid down $57.8
million of debt and reduced the amount of securitized accounts receivable sold by
$30.0 million. The Company took advantage of lower interest rates through the use
of  an  interest  rate  swap  arrangement  described  more  fully  in  Note  Six  to  the
Consolidated Financial Statements. At the end of 2001, the amount of debt with
fixed interest rates was 63% of total debt, including the impact of the interest rate
swap. The increase in 2000 is consistent with higher debt levels required to finance
the two major acquisitions in 1999 and rising interest rates in the U.S. during 2000.
The rising interest rates in early 2000 did not have as significant an impact on inter-
est expense as might have been expected because in 2000, 73% of our debt had
fixed rates and only 27% had floating rates. Strong cash flows from operations and
proceeds from divestitures have been used to lower debt levels and partially offset
the impact of acquisitions on interest expense in 2000. 

The  provision  for  income  taxes results  in  an  effective  tax  rate  for  2001  of
37.4% compared with rates of 36.8% for 2000 and 36.1% for 1999. Our effective
tax rates have been lower than the standard federal and state tax rates due to the
realization of certain R&D and foreign tax credits; foreign rates, which differ from
those  in  the  U.S.;  and  offset  somewhat  by  non-deductible  expenses,  such  as
goodwill. The increase in rates over the three years is due to the non-deductibility
of a portion of the goodwill associated with the Kuhlman acquisition, as well as
increased income from higher tax jurisdictions. The tax rates on the restructuring
and non-recurring charges also reflected a difference in the book and tax carrying

values of certain assets that were written down. For 2002, as a result of certain
changes in the Company’s legal structure, the Company anticipates realizing a
3% to 4% improvement in its effective tax rate.

Financial Condition and Liquidity
Our  cash  and  cash  equivalents  increased  $11.5  million  at  December  31,  2001
compared with December 31, 2000. Net cash provided by operating activities of
$195.8 million, along with proceeds from businesses sold of $14.4 million were
primarily used to fund $140.9 million of capital expenditures, repay $57.8 million
of long-term debt, and distribute $15.8 million of dividends to our shareholders. 

Operating  cash  flow  of  $195.8  million  is  $95.7  million  less  than  in  2000.  The
$195.8  million  consists  of  $66.4  million  of  net  earnings,  non-cash  charges  of
$111.5 million and a $17.9 million decrease in net operating assets and liabilities,
net  of  the  effects  of  divestitures.  Non-cash  charges  are  primarily  comprised  of
$104.2 million in depreciation, $42.0 million of goodwill amortization, and the $5.0
million  non-cash  portion  of  the  restructuring  and  other  non-recurring  charges
recorded in 2001. Accounts Receivable increased $48.6 million, net of receivables
related to divested businesses, in 2001. However, $30.0 million of the increase
was due to the reduction in securitized accounts receivable sold.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $123.3 million, compared with $62.0
million in the prior year. Capital spending totaling $140.9 million in 2001 was $26.2
million lower than in 2000, although at a similar level in terms of spending as a
percentage  of  sales.  Approximately  60%  of  the  2001  spending  was  related  to
expansion,  with  the  remainder  for  cost  reduction  and  other  purposes.  The  prior
year included $88.9 million in net proceeds from the sales of businesses, mainly
non-strategic portions of our 1999 acquisitions. There were $14.4 million in sale
proceeds in 2001. Heading into 2002, we plan to manage through the continuing
industry  downturn  using  a  program  of  controlled  capital  spending,  although  full
year spending should still be approximately 4.5% to 5.5% of sales.

Stockholders’ equity increased by $17.1 million in 2001. Net income of $66.4 million
was partially offset by adjustments for minimum pension liability of $18.7 million,
currency translation adjustments of $18.4 million, dividends of $15.8 million, and
$0.7 million to repurchase shares of treasury stock. In relation to the dollar, the
currencies  in  foreign  countries  where  we  conduct  business,  particularly  the
Euro and Yen, weakened, causing the currency translation component of other
comprehensive income to decrease in 2001. 

Our total capitalization as of December 31, 2001 of $1,841.2 million is comprised of
short-term debt of $35.6 million, long-term debt of $701.4 million and shareholders’
equity of $1,104.2 million. Capitalization at December 31, 2000 was $1,881.9 million.
During the year, we reduced our balance sheet debt to capital ratio to 40.0% from
42.2% in 2000 and 48.1% in 1999. We have also been able to maintain our invest-
ment grade credit ratings from Moody’s (Baa2) and Standard and Poor’s (BBB+).

We have a $350 million revolving credit facility that extends until July 21, 2005. We
also have $300 million available under a shelf registration statement on file with
the Securities and Exchange Commission through which a variety of debt and/or
equity instruments may be issued.

We believe that the combination of cash from operations and available credit facil-
ities will be sufficient to satisfy our cash needs for our current level of operations
and our planned operations for the foreseeable future. We will continue to balance
our needs for internal growth, debt reduction and share repurchase.

Other Matters

A c q u i s i t i o n   o f   K u h l m a n   C o r p o r a t i o n

On  March  1,  1999,  we  acquired  all  the  outstanding  shares  of  common  stock  of
Kuhlman  Corporation  (Kuhlman),  for  a  purchase  price  of  $693.0  million.  We  also
assumed  $131.6  million  of  Kuhlman’s  existing  indebtedness,  which  we  subse-
quently  refinanced.  We  funded  the  transaction  by  issuing  3,287,127  shares  of
BorgWarner Inc. common stock with a value of $149.8 million, and by borrowing
approximately $543.2 million.

Kuhlman  was  a  diversified  industrial  manufacturing  company  that  operated  in
two  product  segments:  vehicle  and  electrical  products.  In  vehicle  products,
Kuhlman’s Schwitzer and Kysor units were leading worldwide manufacturers of
proprietary engine components, including turbochargers, fans and fan drives and
other products. Their results since the date of the acquisition are included in the
Consolidated Financial Statements. 

The  electrical  products  businesses  acquired  from  Kuhlman  consisted  of  Kuhlman
Electric and Coleman Cable. These products did not fit our strategic direction and, at the
time of the Kuhlman acquisition, we announced our intention to sell the businesses.

In  1999,  we  completed  the  sales  of  both  Kuhlman  Electric  and  Coleman  Cable.
Kuhlman  Electric  was  sold  to  Carlyle  Group,  L.L.C.  for  $120.1  million,  including
debt  securities  with  a  face  value  of  $15.0  million.  The  $137.3  million  sale  of

Coleman Cable to a group of equity investors included debt securities with a face
value of $15.3 million. Proceeds from the sales were used to repay indebtedness.
In  2001,  the  sale  agreement  with  Coleman  Cable  was  finalized  resulting  in  the
exchange of the debt securities, along with a purchase price adjustment receiv-
able, for $3.0 million in cash and a $2.0 million note due in 2002.

A c q u i s i t i o n   o f   E a t o n   C o r p . ’s   F l u i d   P o w e r   D i v i s i o n
Effective October 1, 1999, we acquired Eaton Corp.’s Fluid Power Division, one
of the world’s leading manufacturers of powertrain cooling solutions for the global
automotive  industry,  for  $321.7  million.  To  partially  finance  the  acquisition,  we
issued $150 million of 8.0% senior unsecured notes maturing September 2019.
Cash  from  operations  funded  the  remainder  of  the  acquisition  price.  The  Fluid
Power Division designed and produced a variety of fans and viscous fan drive cooling
systems primarily for passenger vehicles such as light trucks, sport-utility vehicles
and  vans.  Along  with  the  commercial  cooling  systems  business  acquired  from
Kuhlman in March 1999, this acquisition positions us to globalize modular cooling
systems integration opportunities across a full range of vehicle types.

E n v i r o n m e n t a l / O t h e r   C o m m i t m e n t s   a n d   C o n t i n g e n c i e s
Environmental The  Company  and  certain  of  its  current  and  former  direct  and
indirect  corporate  predecessors,  subsidiaries  and  divisions  have  been  identified
by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and certain state environ-
mental  agencies  and  private  parties  as  potentially  responsible  parties  (PRPs)  at
various hazardous waste disposal sites under the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act (Superfund) and equivalent state laws
and, as such, may presently be liable for the cost of clean-up and other remedial
activities at 43 such sites. Responsibility for clean-up and other remedial activities
at a Superfund site is typically shared among PRPs based on an allocation formula.

Based on information available to the Company, which in most cases, includes:
an estimate of allocation of liability among PRPs; the probability that other PRPs,
many of whom are large, solvent public companies, will fully pay the cost appor-
tioned to them; currently available information from PRPs and/or federal or state
environmental  agencies  concerning  the  scope  of  contamination  and  estimated
remediation costs; remediation alternatives; estimated legal fees; and other factors,
the Company has established a reserve for indicated environmental liabilities with
a  balance  at  December  31,  2001  of  approximately  $25.5  million.  The  Company
expects this amount to be expended over the next three to five years.

BorgWarner believes that none of these matters, individually or in the aggregate,
will  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  its  financial  condition  or  future  operating

results, generally either because estimates of the maximum potential liability at a
site are not large or because liability will be shared with other PRPs, although no
assurance can be given with respect to the ultimate outcome of any such matter.

In connection with the sale of Kuhlman Electric Corporation, the Company agreed
to  indemnify  the  buyer  and  Kuhlman  Electric  for  certain  environmental  liabilities
relating to the past operations of Kuhlman Electric. During 2000, Kuhlman Electric
notified the Company that it discovered potential environmental contamination at
its Crystals Springs, Mississippi plant while undertaking an expansion of the plant.

The Company has been working with the Mississippi Department of Environmental
Quality and Kuhlman Electric to investigate the extent of the contamination. The inves-
tigation  has  revealed  the  presence  of  PCBs  in  portions  of  the  soil  at  the  plant  and
neighboring areas. In mid-2001, Kuhlman Electric and others, including the Company,
were sued by twenty-six plaintiffs in several lawsuits, which claim personal and
property damage. The Company has moved to be dismissed from these lawsuits.

The Company has filed a lawsuit against Kuhlman Electric seeking a declaration of
the  scope  of  the  Company’s  contractual  indemnity.  The  Company  believes  that
the reserve for environmental liabilities is sufficient to cover any potential liability
associated with this matter.

Other Commitments and Contingencies In support of a new product that will be
launched in 2002, a third party has purchased $22.7  million  of  fixed  assets.  Upon
launch of the new product, the Company intends to lease these assets under an
operating lease.

N e w   A c c o u n t i n g   P r o n o u n c e m e n t s
On  January  1,  2001,  the  Company  adopted  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities,” as amended. This statement standardizes the accounting for derivative
instruments by requiring that an entity recognize all derivatives as assets or liabilities
in the statement of financial position and measure them at fair value. When certain
criteria are met, it also provides for matching the timing of gain or loss recognition on
the derivative hedging instrument with the recognition of (a) the changes in the fair
value or cash flows of the hedged asset or liability attributable to the hedged risk or
(b)  the  earnings  effect  of  the  hedged  forecasted  transaction.  The  Company  has  a
small number of derivative instruments. Application of SFAS No. 133 had an imma-
terial impact on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. 

On April 1, 2001, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No.  140,  “Accounting  for  Transfers  and  Servicing  of  Financial  Assets  and
Extinguishments of Liabilities.” The adoption of this statement has not had and is

not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations,
financial condition or cash flows. Further disclosure may be found in the Accounts
Receivable section of Note One to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In  July  2001,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  issued  SFAS  No.  141
“Business  Combinations”  and  SFAS  No.  142  “Goodwill  and  Other  Intangible
Assets.” SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations completed after
June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method only and that certain
acquired  intangible  assets  in  a  business  combination  be  recognized  as  assets
apart  from  goodwill.  There  are  also  transition  provisions  that  apply  to  business
combinations completed before July 1, 2001, that were accounted for by the pur-
chase method. SFAS No. 142, effective January 1, 2002, specifies that goodwill
and certain intangible assets will no longer be amortized but instead will be sub-
ject to periodic impairment testing.

The Company is currently assessing the impact that adoption of SFAS No. 142
will have on its financial position and results of operations. As of December 31,
2001,  the  Company  had  goodwill,  net  of  accumulated  amortization,  of  approxi-
mately  $1,160.6  million,  which  will  be  subject  to  the  transitional  assessment
provisions of SFAS No. 142. Amortization expense related to goodwill was $42.0
million and $43.3 million for 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Q u a l i t a t i v e   a n d   Q u a n t i t a t i v e   D i s c l o s u r e   A b o u t   M a r k e t   R i s k
BorgWarner’s primary market risks include fluctuations in interest rates and foreign
currency exchange rates. We are also affected by changes in the prices of com-
modities used in our manufacturing operations. Some of our commodity purchase
price risk is covered by supply agreements with customers and suppliers. Other
commodity purchase price risk is not considered to be material. We do not enter
into any derivative instruments for purposes other than hedging a specific risk.

We  have  established  policies  and  procedures  to  manage  sensitivity  to  interest
rate  and  foreign  currency  exchange  rate  market  risk,  which  include  monitoring
the level of exposure to each market risk.

Interest  rate  risk  is  the  risk  that  we  will  incur  economic  losses  due  to  adverse
changes in interest rates. Our earnings exposure related to adverse movements
in  interest  rates  is  primarily  derived  from  outstanding  floating  rate  debt  instru-
ments that are indexed to floating money market rates. A ten percent increase or
decrease in the average cost of our variable rate debt would result in a change in
pre-tax interest expense of approximately $0.8 million. 

We also measure interest rate risk by estimating the net amount by which the
fair  value  of  all  of  our  interest  rate  sensitive  assets  and  liabilities  would  be

impacted by selected hypothetical changes in market interest rates. Fair value is
estimated using a discount cash flow analysis. Assuming a hypothetical instan-
taneous 10% change in interest rates as of December 31, 2001, the net fair value
of  these  instruments  would  increase  by  approximately  $35.3  million  if  interest
rates  decreased  and  would  decrease  by  approximately  $31.6  million  if  interest
rates increased. Our interest rate sensitivity analysis assumes a parallel shift in
interest  rate  yield  curves.  The  model,  therefore,  does  not  reflect  the  potential
impact of changes in the relationship between short-term and long-term interest
rates. Interest rate sensitivity at December 31, 2000, measured in a similar manner,
was slightly greater than at December 31, 2001.

Foreign currency risk is the risk that we will incur economic losses due to adverse
changes  in  foreign  currency  exchange  rates.  We  mitigate  our  foreign  currency
exchange rate risk principally by establishing local production facilities in markets
we serve, by invoicing customers in the same currency as the source of the products
and  by  funding  some  of  our  investments  in  foreign  markets  through  local
currency loans. Such non-U.S. dollar debt was $116.3 million as of December 31,
2001 and $122.4 million as of December 31, 2000. We also monitor our foreign
currency  exposure  in  each  country  and  implement  strategies  to  respond  to
changing economic and political environments. In addition, the Company period-
ically enters into forward contracts in order to reduce exposure to exchange rate
risk related to transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional
currency. In the aggregate, our exposure related to such transactions is not material
to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows in both 2001 and 2000.

Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Statements  contained  in  this  Management’s  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial
Condition  and  Results  of  Operations  may  contain  forward-looking  statements  as
contemplated by the 1995 Private Securities Litigation Reform Act that are based on
management’s  current  expectations,  estimates  and  projections.  Words  such  as
“expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” variations of
such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking
statements.  Forward-looking  statements  are  subject  to  risks  and  uncertainties,
which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or implied
in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include: fluctuations
in domestic or foreign automotive production, the continued use of outside suppli-
ers, fluctuations in demand for vehicles containing BorgWarner products, general
economic conditions, as well as other risks detailed in the Company’s filings with
the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission,  including  the  Cautionary  Statements
filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001.

The information in this report is the responsibility of management. BorgWarner Inc.
and Consolidated Subsidiaries (the “Company”) has in place reporting guidelines and
policies designed to ensure that the statements and other information contained in
this report present a fair and accurate financial picture of the Company. In fulfilling this
management responsibility, we make informed judgments and estimates conform-
ing with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  have  been  audited  by
Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent auditors. Management has made available
all the Company’s financial records and related information deemed necessary by
Deloitte & Touche LLP. Furthermore, management believes that all representations
made by it to Deloitte & Touche LLP during its audit were valid and appropriate.

Management is responsible for maintaining a comprehensive system of internal
control through its operations that provides reasonable assurance that assets are
protected from improper use, that material errors are prevented or detected within
a timely period and that records are sufficient to produce reliable financial reports.
The  system  of  internal  control  is  supported  by  written  policies  and  procedures
that are updated by management as necessary. The system is reviewed and eval-
uated regularly by the Company’s internal auditors as well as by the independent
auditors  in  connection  with  their  annual  audit  of  the  financial  statements.  The
independent auditors conduct their evaluation in accordance with auditing stan-
dards generally accepted in the United States of America and perform such tests
of  transactions  and  balances  as  they  deem  necessary.  Management  considers
the recommendations of its internal auditors and independent auditors concerning
the Company’s system of internal control and takes the necessary actions that are
cost-effective in the circumstances. Management believes that, as of December 31,
2001, the Company’s system of internal control was adequate to accomplish the
objectives set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph.

The Company’s Finance and Audit Committee, composed entirely of directors of
the  Company  who  are  not  employees,  meets  periodically  with  the  Company’s
management and independent auditors to review financial results and procedures,
internal financial controls and internal and external audit plans and recommenda-
tions. In carrying out these responsibilities, the Finance and Audit Committee and
the independent auditors have unrestricted access to each other with or without
the presence of management representatives.

To The Board of Directors and Stockholders of BorgWarner Inc.: 

We  have  audited  the  consolidated  balance  sheets  of  BorgWarner  Inc.  and
Consolidated Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2001 and 2000,
and  the  related  consolidated  statements  of  operations,  cash  flows,  and  stock-
holders’  equity  for  each  of  the  three  years  in  the  period  ended  December  31,
2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s man-
agement. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and per-
form  the  audit  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the  consolidated
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes exam-
ining,  on  a  test  basis,  evidence  supporting  the  amounts  and  disclosures  in  the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall  financial  statement  presentation.  We  believe  that  our  audits  provide  a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of BorgWarner Inc. and Consolidated Subsidiaries
at December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of their operations and their
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America.

BorgWarner Inc. and Consolidated Subsidiaries

Introduction
BorgWarner  Inc.  and  Consolidated  Subsidiaries  (the  “Company”)  is  a  leading
global supplier of highly engineered systems and components primarily for auto-
motive  powertrain  applications.  These  products  are  manufactured  and  sold
worldwide,  primarily  to  original  equipment  manufacturers  of  passenger  cars,
sport  utility  vehicles,  trucks,  commercial  transportation  products  and  industrial
equipment.  Its  products  fall  into  five  operating  segments:  Air/Fluid  Systems,
Cooling Systems, Morse TEC, TorqTransfer Systems and Transmission Systems.

1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The following paragraphs briefly describe significant accounting policies. 

Use  of  estimates The  preparation  of  financial  statements  in  conformity  with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management  to  make  estimates  and  assumptions.  These  estimates  and
assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

Principles  of  consolidation The  consolidated  financial  statements  include  all
significant  majority-owned  subsidiaries.  All  significant  intercompany  accounts
and  transactions  have  been  eliminated  in  consolidation.  Certain  prior  amounts
have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are valued at cost, which
approximates  market.  It  is  the  Company’s  policy  to  classify  investments  with
original maturities of three months or less as cash and cash equivalents.

Accounts  receivable The  Company  securitizes  and  sells  certain  receivables
through third-party financial institutions without recourse. The amount sold can
vary each month based on the amount of underlying receivables, up to a max-
imum  of  $150  million.  During  the  year  ended  December  31,  2001,  total  cash
proceeds  from  sales  of  accounts  receivable  were  $1,706.8  million,  and  the
amount of receivables sold each month ranged from $120 to $150 million. While
there are no gains or losses booked as a result of these transactions, the Company
is charged fees which are recorded at the time receivables are sold. At December 31,
2001,  the  Company  had  sold  $120  million  of  receivables  under  a  $153  million
Receivables Transfer Agreement for face value without recourse. At December 31,
2000, the amount sold was $150 million.

On  April 1, 2001,  the  Company  adopted  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
Standards No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities.” The adoption of this statement has not had a mate-
rial effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost of U.S.
inventories is determined by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method, while the foreign
operations use the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories held by U.S. oper-
ations was $81.1 million in 2001 and $92.4 million in 2000. Such inventories, if
valued at current cost instead of LIFO, would have been greater by $3.9 million
and $5.1 million, respectively.

Property,  plant  and  equipment  and  depreciation Property,  plant  and  equip-
ment are valued at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for mainte-
nance,  repairs  and  renewals  of  relatively  minor  items  are  generally  charged  to
expense as incurred. Renewals of significant items are capitalized. Depreciation
is computed generally on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of
related assets ranging from 3 to 30 years. For income tax purposes, accelerated
methods of depreciation are generally used.  

Goodwill Goodwill is being amortized on a straight-line basis over periods not
exceeding  40  years.  The  Company  periodically  evaluates  the  carrying  value  of
goodwill to determine if adjustment to the amortization period or to the unamortized
balance is warranted.

Revenue  recognition The  Company  recognizes  revenue  upon  shipment  of
product. Although  the  Company  may  enter  into  long-term  supply  agreements
with its major customers, each shipment of goods is treated as a separate sale
and the price is not fixed over the life of the agreements.

Financial instruments Financial instruments consist primarily of investments in
cash and cash equivalents, receivables and debt securities and obligations under
accounts payable, accrued expenses and debt instruments. The Company believes
that the fair value of the financial instruments approximates the carrying value,
except as noted in Note Six.  

The Company received corporate bonds with a face value of $30.3 million as
partial consideration  for  the  sales  of  Kuhlman  Electric  and  Coleman  Cable  in
1999. These bonds were recorded at their fair market value of $12.9 million using
valuation  techniques  that  considered  cash  flows  discounted  at  current  market

rates and management’s best estimates of credit quality. In 2001, the sale agree-
ment with Coleman Cable was finalized, resulting in the exchange of the corporate
bonds along with a purchase price receivable, for $3 million in cash and a $2 million
note due in 2002. The fair value of these instruments was estimated to be $10.9
million at December 31, 2001 and $12.9 million at December 31, 2000. They have
been classified as investments available-for-sale in the other current assets section
of the December 31, 2001 and 2000 Consolidated Balance Sheets. The contractual
maturity of the Kuhlman Electric related bond is beyond five years.

Foreign currency The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated
to U.S. dollars using the period-end exchange rate for assets and liabilities and an
average  exchange  rate  for  each  period  for  revenues  and  expenses.  The  local
currency  is  the  functional  currency  for  substantially  all  the  Company’s  foreign
subsidiaries.  Translation  adjustments  for  foreign  subsidiaries  are  recorded  as  a
component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity.

Derivative financial instruments The Company recognizes that certain normal
business  transactions  generate  risk.  Examples  of  risks  include  exposure  to
exchange rate risk related to transactions denominated in currencies other than
the functional currency, changes in cost of major raw materials, and changes in
interest rates. It is the objective and responsibility of the Company to assess the
impact of these transaction risks, and offer protection from selected risks through
various methods including financial derivatives. All derivative instruments held by
the  Company  are  designated  as  hedges,  have  high  correlation  with  the  under-
lying exposure and are highly effective in offsetting underlying price movements.
Accordingly, gains and losses from changes in derivative fair values are deferred
until  the  underlying  transaction  occurs.  The  Company  does  not  enter  into  any
derivative instruments for purposes other than hedging specific risk.

On  January  1,  2001,  the  Company  adopted  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities," as amended. This statement standardizes the accounting for deriva-
tive instruments by requiring that an entity recognize all derivatives as assets or
liabilities  in  the  statement  of  financial  position  and  measure  them  at  fair  value.
When certain criteria are met, it also provides for matching the timing of gain or
loss recognition on the derivative hedging instrument with the recognition of (a) the
changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged asset or liability attributable
to the hedged risk or (b) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction.
Application of SFAS 133 had an immaterial impact on the Company’s results of
operations and financial condition.

In  July  2001,  the  Financial  Accounting
New  accounting  pronouncements
Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141 “Business Combinations” and SFAS No.
142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” SFAS 141 requires that all business
combinations completed after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase
method only and that certain acquired intangible assets in a business combination
be recognized as assets apart from goodwill. There are also transition provisions
that  apply  to  business  combinations  completed  before  July  1,  2001,  that  were
accounted for by the purchase method. SFAS No. 142, effective January 1, 2002,
specifies that goodwill and certain intangible assets will no longer be amortized
but instead will be subject to periodic impairment testing.

The Company is currently assessing the impact that adoption of SFAS No. 142
will have on its financial position and results of operations. As of December 31,
2001,  the  Company  had  goodwill,  net  of  accumulated  amortization,  of  approxi-
mately  $1,160.6  million,  which  will  be  subject  to  the  transitional  assessment
provisions of SFAS No. 142. Amortization expense related to goodwill was $42.0
million and $43.3 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively.

2 Research and Development Costs
The Company spent approximately $104.5 million, $112.0 million and $91.6 million
in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, on research and development (R&D) activities.
Not  included  in  these  amounts  were  customer-sponsored  R&D  activities  of
approximately  $20.0  million,  $12.5  million  and  $9.4  million  in  2001,  2000  and
1999, respectively.

No deferred income taxes have been provided on undistributed earnings of foreign
subsidiaries totalling $47.8 million, as the amounts are essentially permanent in
nature.  Any  such  potential  liability  would  be  substantially  offset  by  foreign  tax
credits with respect to such undistributed foreign earnings. The capital loss carry-
over relates to the sales of businesses acquired in the Kuhlman acquisition.

BorgWarner Inc. and Consolidated Subsidiaries

Dividends and other payments received from affiliates accounted for under the
equity method totaled $8.9 million in 2001, $25.5 million in 2000 and $5.5 million
in 1999.

Accumulated  amortization  of  goodwill  amounted  to  $228.4  million  in  2001  and
$187.6 million in 2000.

The Company has a 50% interest in NSK-Warner, a joint venture based in Japan
that manufactures automatic transmission components. The Company’s share
of  the  earnings  or  losses  reported  by  NSK-Warner  is  accounted  for  using  the
equity  method  of  accounting.  NSK-Warner  has  a  fiscal  year-end  of  March  31.
The Company’s equity in the earnings of NSK-Warner consists of the 12 months
ended  November  30  so  as  to  reflect  earnings  on  as  current  a  basis  as  is
reasonably feasible.

Following are summarized financial data for NSK-Warner, translated using the

BorgWarner Inc. and Consolidated Subsidiaries

The Company has a revolving credit facility which provides for borrowings up to
$350 million through July, 2005. At December 31, 2001, $20.0 million of borrow-
ings under the facility were outstanding in addition to $6.5 million of obligations
under standby letters of credit. At December 31, 2000, the facility was unused.
The  credit  agreement  contains  numerous  financial  and  operating  covenants
including,  among  others,  covenants  requiring  the  Company  to  maintain  certain
financial ratios and restricting its ability to incur additional indebtedness.

In July 2001, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a
financial institution to swap interest on $100 million of 7% fixed rate Senior Notes
for variable interest at LIBOR plus 0.98% (approximately 3.0% at December 31,
2001).  The  agreement  terminates  when  the  underlying  Notes  mature  on
November  1,  2006.  This  interest  rate  swap  has  been  recorded  as  a  fair  value
hedge.  There  was  no  ineffectiveness  related  to  the  derivative  in  2001.  As  of
December 31, 2001, the interest rate swap has a notional amount of $100 million
and a fair value of $2.5 million.

As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, the estimated fair values of the Company’s
senior  unsecured  notes  totaled  $579.6  million  and  $516.6  million,  respectively.
The estimated fair values were $21.0 million lower in 2001, and $141.8 million
lower  in  2000,  than  their  respective  carrying  values.  The  fair  value  of  all  other
debt instruments is estimated to approximate their recorded value, as their appli-
cable interest rates approximate current market rates for borrowings with similar
terms and maturities. Fair market values are developed by the use of estimates
obtained from brokers and other appropriate valuation techniques based on infor-
mation available as of year-end. The fair value estimates do not necessarily reflect
the values the Company could realize in the current markets.

7 Restructuring and Other Non-Recurring Charges
Other non-recurring charges of $28.4 million were incurred in the fourth quarter
of 2001. These charges primarily include adjustments to the carrying value of cer-
tain assets and liabilities related to businesses acquired and disposed of over the
past three years. Of the $28.4 million of pretax charges, $5.0 million represents
non-cash  charges.  Approximately  $3.3  million  was  spent  in  2001,  $8.4  million
was  transferred  to  environmental  reserves,  and  the  remaining  $11.7  million  is
expected to be spent over the next two years. The Company expects to fund the
total cash outlay of these actions with cash flow from operations.

Restructuring  and  other  non-recurring  charges  totaling  $62.9  million  were
incurred  in  the  second  half  of  2000  in  response  to  deteriorating  market  condi-
tions.  The  charges  included  the  rationalization  and  integration  of  certain  busi-
nesses  and  actions  taken  to  bring  costs  in  line  with  vehicle  production  slow-
downs  in  major  customer  product  lines.  Of  the  $62.9  million  pretax  charges  in
2000,  $47.3  million  represented  non-cash  charges.  Approximately  $4.4  million
was spent in 2000 and $11.2 million was spent in 2001.

Components of the restructuring and other non-recurring charges are detailed in
the following table and discussed further below.

Severance  and  other  benefit  costs  relate  to  the  reduction  of  approximately  220
employees from the workforce. The reductions affect each of the Company’s oper-
ating segments, apart from TorqTransfer Systems, across each of the Company’s
geographical areas, and across each major functional area, including production and
selling and administrative positions. As of December 31, 2001, approximately $8.9
million had been paid for severance and other benefits for the terminated employees.

Asset write-downs primarily consist of the write-off of impaired assets that will
no  longer  be  used  in  production  as  a  result  of  the  industry  downturn  and  the
consolidation  of  certain  operations.  Such  assets  have  been  taken  or  are  in  the
process of being taken out of productive use and are being disposed.

Loss  on  anticipated  sale  of  business  is  related  to  the  Fuel  Systems  business,
which was sold in April 2001. Fuel Systems produced metal tanks for the heavy
truck market in North America and did not fit the Company’s strategic focus on
powertrain technology. In April 2000, the Company announced its intention to sell
this non-core business, which was acquired as part of the vehicle products busi-
ness of Kuhlman Corporation in March 1999. With the deterioration of the North
American heavy truck market in the second half of 2000, the value of this busi-
ness had significantly decreased, creating the $35.2 million pre-tax loss. In April
2001,  the  Company  completed  the  sale  of  its  Fuel  Systems  business  to  an
investor group led by TMB Industries, a private equity group. Terms of the trans-
action did not have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations,
financial condition or cash flows.

Other  exit  costs  and  non-recurring  charges  are  primarily  non-employee  related
exit costs for certain non-production facilities the Company has previously sold or
no longer needs and non-recurring product quality related charges. The 2001 non-
recurring charges include $8.4 million of environmental remediation costs related
to sold businesses and $12 million of product quality costs for issues with prod-
ucts that were sold by acquired businesses prior to acquisition, all of which have
been fixed in the currently produced products.

The  funded  status  of  pension  plans  included  above  with  accumulated  benefit
obligations in excess of plan assets at December 31 is as follows:

The  Company’s  weighted-average  assumptions  used  as  of  December  31,  in
determining the pension costs and pension liabilities shown above were as follows:

9 Stock Incentive Plans

Stock option plans Under the Company’s 1993 Stock Incentive Plan, the Company
may grant options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at the fair
market value on the date of grant. In 2000, the Company increased the number
of shares available for grant by 1,200,000 to 2,700,000 shares. The options vest
over periods up to three years and have a term of ten years from date of grant.
As of December 31, 2001, there are 1,493,220 outstanding options on the 1993
Stock Incentive Plan.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, and has been determined
as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the fair
value method of that Statement. The fair value for these options was estimated
at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes options pricing model with the following
weighted-average assumptions:

Risk-free interest rate

Dividend yield

For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is
amortized to expense over the options’ vesting period. The Company’s pro forma
net earnings and earnings per share, adjusted to include pro forma expense related
to stock options, are as follows:

Executive  stock  performance  plan The  Company  has  an  executive  stock
performance  plan  which  provides  payouts  at  the  end  of  successive  three-year
periods based on the Company’s performance in terms of total stockholder return
relative to a peer group of automotive companies. Payouts earned are payable 40%
in  cash  and  60%  in  the  Company’s  common  stock.  For  the  three-year  measure-
ment periods ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, the amounts earned
under the plan and accrued over the three-year periods were $5.2 million, $3.4
million  and  $2.0  million,  respectively.  Under  this  plan,  25,860  shares,  21,818
shares  and  21,892  shares  were  issued  in  2001,  2000  and  1999,  respectively.
Estimated shares issuable under the plan are included in the computation of diluted
earnings per share as earned.

Earnings per share In calculating earnings per share, earnings are the same for
the basic and diluted calculations. Shares increased for diluted earnings per share
by 148,000, 96,000 and 130,000 for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, due to
the  effects  of  stock  options  and  shares  issuable  under  the  executive  stock
performance plan.

11 Contingent Liabilities
The Company and certain of its current and former direct and indirect corporate
predecessors, subsidiaries and divisions have been identified by the United States
Environmental Protection Agency and certain state environmental agencies and
private parties as potentially responsible parties (PRPs) at various hazardous waste
disposal sites under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation
and Liability Act (Superfund) and equivalent state laws and, as such, may presently
be liable for the cost of clean-up and other remedial activities at 43 such sites.
Responsibility  for  clean-up  and  other  remedial  activities  at  a  Superfund  site  is
typically shared among PRPs based on an allocation formula.

Based on information available to the Company, which in most cases, includes:
an estimate of allocation of liability among PRPs; the probability that other PRPs,
many of whom are large, solvent public companies, will fully pay the cost appor-
tioned to them; currently available information from PRPs and/or federal or state
environmental  agencies  concerning  the  scope  of  contamination  and  estimated
remediation costs; remediation alternatives; estimated legal fees; and other factors,
the Company has established a reserve for indicated environmental liabilities with
a balance at December 31, 2001 of approximately $25.5 million. The Company
expects this amount to be expended over the next three to five years.

BorgWarner 2001

45

BorgWarner Inc. and Consolidated Subsidiaries

BorgWarner believes that none of these matters, individually or in the aggregate,
will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or future operating
results, generally either because estimates of the maximum potential liability at
a site are not large or because liability will be shared with other PRPs, although no
assurance can be given with respect to the ultimate outcome of any such matter.

In connection with the sale of Kuhlman Electric Corporation, the Company agreed
to indemnify the buyer and Kuhlman Electric for certain environmental liabilities
relating to the past operations of Kuhlman Electric. During 2000, Kuhlman Electric
notified the Company that it discovered potential environmental contamination at
its Crystals Springs, Mississippi plant while undertaking an expansion of the plant.

The Company has been working with the Mississippi Department of Environmental
Quality and Kuhlman Electric to investigate the extent of the contamination. The
investigation  has  revealed  the  presence  of  PCBs  in  portions  of  the  soil  at  the
plant and neighboring areas. In mid 2001, Kuhlman Electric and others, including
the Company, were sued by twenty-six plaintiffs in several lawsuits, which claim
personal and property damage. The Company has moved to be dismissed from
these lawsuits.

The Company has filed a lawsuit against Kuhlman Electric seeking a declaration
of the scope of the Company’s contractual indemnity. The Company believes that
the reserve for environmental liabilities is sufficient to cover any potential liability
associated with this matter.

12 Acquisitions and Divestitures

Acquisitions

K u h l m a n   C o r p o r a t i o n

On March 1, 1999, the Company acquired all the outstanding shares of common
stock of Kuhlman Corporation, a manufacturer of vehicle and electrical products, for
a purchase price of $693.0 million. The Company funded the transaction by issuing
3,287,127 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $149.8 million and by
borrowing $543.2 million in cash. The Company also assumed additional indebted-
ness  for  the  settlement  of  certain  long-term  incentive  programs  and  severance
programs, which amounted to approximately $14 million, net of tax benefits, and
refinanced Kuhlman’s other existing indebtedness assumed of $131.6 million.

46

BorgWarner 2001

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The  vehicle  products  businesses  were  accounted  for  as  a  purchase  and  the
Company began consolidating their results since the date of acquisition. These
businesses  have  been  integrated  into  the  Air/Fluid  Systems,  Cooling  Systems
and Morse TEC segments.

The electrical products businesses acquired from Kuhlman consisted of Kuhlman
Electric and Coleman Cable. These businesses manufactured transformers for
the utility industry and wire and cable for utilities and other industries. These
products  did  not  fit  the  Company’s  strategic  direction  and,  at  the  time  of  the
Kuhlman  Acquisition,  the  Company  announced  that  it  intended  to  sell  the
businesses. These businesses were accounted for as businesses held for sale
during 1999, and as such, no sales or income between the date of acquisition and
their dates of sale was included in the consolidated results of the Company.

In  1999,  Kuhlman  Electric  was  sold  to  Carlyle  Group,  L.L.C.  for  $120.1  million,
including  debt  securities  with  a  face  value  of  $15.0  million.  The  $137.3  million
sale of Coleman Cable to a group of equity investors included debt securities with
a face value of $15.3 million. See Note One for the carrying value of debt securities
related to the sales. Proceeds from the sales were used to repay indebtedness.

E a t o n   C o r p o r a t i o n ’s   F l u i d   P o w e r   D i v i s i o n

On October 1, 1999, the Company acquired Eaton Corporation’s Fluid Power Division,
one of the world’s leading manufacturers of powertrain cooling solutions for the
global  automotive  industry  for  $321.7  million  in  cash.  The  Company  accounted
for the acquisition as a purchase and began consolidating it in October 1999.

The following unaudited pro forma information has been prepared assuming that
both  the  Kuhlman  merger  and  the  Eaton  Corporation’s  Fluid  Power  Division
acquisition had occurred at the beginning of 1999, and includes adjustments for
estimated amounts of goodwill amortization, increased interest expense on bor-
rowings incurred to finance the transactions, elimination of expenses related to
Kuhlman’s corporate headquarters which has been closed, exclusion of revenues,
costs  and  expenses  for  Kuhlman’s  electrical  products  businesses,  including  an
allocation of goodwill amortization and interest expense, and the tax effects of all
preceding adjustments. Sales from divested operations of $41.3 million in 1999
are included in the pro forma sales amounts.

13 Operating Segments and Related Information
The  Company’s  business  is  comprised  of  five  operating  segments:  Air/Fluid
Systems, Cooling Systems, Morse TEC, TorqTransfer Systems and Transmission
Systems.  These  reportable  segments  are  strategic  business  units  which  are
managed separately because each represents a specific grouping of automotive
components and systems. The Company evaluates performance based on earn-
ings  before  interest  and  taxes,  which  emphasizes  realization  of  a  satisfactory
return  on  the  total  capital  invested  in  each  operating  unit.  Intersegment  sales,
which are not significant, are recorded at market prices.
