The International® DuraStar®
deals with challenges ranging
from repairing downed power
lines to racing to a fire.
Deliver To our shareholders, employees and customers:
There is no question that Navistar is an
American icon – a company that has
historically endured through many market
cycles and many changes in the business.
While this year presented major challenges,
we have embarked on a concerted turnaround
process with strong assets, including great
products, a motivated workforce and a best-
in-class network of dealers who are continuing
to expand their businesses. The company is
acting with new urgency, tackling each issue
quickly and accelerating the process of driving
Navistar forward.
Although much remains to be done to
return us to profitability and enable our
long-term success, the team has rapidly
focused on removing the uncertainties in
our path. Even before my arrival, Troy Clarke
and other members of our senior leadership
team were implementing actions to take
risks off the table.
We have quickly pivoted to the right engine
strategy. We have reduced or eliminated many
uncertainties regarding our regulatory status
and cost structure. We have begun to take
steps to improve our manufacturing footprint.
And we have increased our emphasis on our
core North American truck, engine and parts
business for the foreseeable future.
Today, I see a company that operates
according to six guiding principles: quality;
urgency; reduced cost; leading-edge products;
customer satisfaction; and realizing the
potential of our people. I also see a team that
is aligned around three priorities for 2013:
making a major improvement in product
quality; hitting every one of our critical truck
and engine launch dates; and delivering on our
operating plan while maximizing manufacturing
cash flow.
Improving quality Navistar supports its
customers with many great products, including
our flagship International ProStar+; but we
need to continue to establish quality as the
foundation for our company culture, making
major improvements in product quality. At
times we may face difficult choices, but we
are committed to being the best at satisfying
our customers. This means fewer repair
incidents and faster repair times to keep their
International® trucks on the road. It also means
continuously improving the processes by which
we design, engineer and build our products,
as we intend to become known as the quality
leader in our industry.
Hitting our launches The entire
organization is committed to hitting every
one of our truck launch dates. Our integrated
execution team has worked around the clock
to deliver the initial pilot build of the ProStar+
with the Cummins ISX 15-liter engine.

Improving Quality with a Sense of Urgency
On November 12, the first vehicle rolled off
the line at our facility in Escobedo, Nuevo
Leon, Mexico, three days ahead of schedule.
On December 14, we made our first customer
shipments, five days ahead of schedule. Today,
we are in full production. In March 2013, we
will enter pilot production of the International
ProStar+ with our own MaxxForce® 13-liter
engine and the Cummins Emission Solutions
SCR-based aftertreatment system. Full
production is on track to begin in April 2013.
In addition to meeting these launch dates,
we are committed to meeting firm internal
milestones for timing and quality. We have
also engaged three customer fleets, who
are providing us with real-time quality data
to ensure that our new engines exceed
the quality of those being replaced. The
bottom line: we are absolutely committed to
meeting or beating our launch dates, with
unprecedented levels of quality.
“Drive to Deliver” on our 2013 plan
The final priority is delivering on our 2013
plan, achieving a significant year-over-year
improvement in financial performance, while
beginning to restore our core North American
truck, engine and parts business to a market-
leading position. We are using return on
invested capital (ROIC) as a metric to help us
understand the steps needed for improvement
in each of our businesses.
Our goal is for the business as a whole to
achieve an ROIC greater than our weighted
average cost of capital. Using this metric,
we have already identified more than seven
businesses or programs, representing only
$260 million of revenue, that would generate
at least $52 million of EBIT improvement if
sold or discontinued. Actions we have already
taken include shelving our MaxxForce 15-liter
engine and initiating the sale of our interests in
our India joint ventures.
Meanwhile, we are resolutely focused on
reducing our overall cost structure in order to
lower our break-even cost. Before I came on
board, the company had established an annual
cost reduction goal of $150 million to $175
million; we now have a clear line of sight to
exceed this range. We have taken actions to

improve working capital; completed a
voluntary separation program and a reduction
in force; and initiated actions to adjust our
manufacturing footprint, including the closure
of our assembly plant in Texas. We have also
become a much more cash-focused company.
During the fourth quarter, we concluded a
successful $200 million equity offer; and we
ended the fiscal year with more than $1.5
billion in cash and marketable securities,
exceeding the top end of our guidance by
more than 50 percent. We have also aligned
our workforce to achieve our goals through
a new bonus plan, tied directly to our quality
launch metrics and our targets for cash,
overhead and EBITDA.
We have also been closely engaged with
our board, on whose behalf I would like to
welcome new directors Vincent Intrieri, Sam
Merksamer, Jack Pope and Mark Rachesky.
Our work is cut out for us, but our directors
are ready for the challenge, and they will be
constructive critics and valuable counselors
as we continue to work toward our return to
profitability. I would also like to extend our
thanks to the directors who have left the board
this year: Eugenio Clariond, Diane Gulyas,
David Harrison and Steven Klinger.
We appreciate their service, and wish them
well in their future endeavors.
In summary, the right strategy is in place to
turn this company around in the next 12 to
18 months. Our longer-term vision is for
Navistar to be regarded as a leader on the
issues that matter most to our customers
– quality, fuel economy, uptime and cost of
ownership. We are committed to building
a stronger, more profitable core business,
complemented by strategic growth
opportunities in key global markets.
Our new senior leadership team is clearly
focused on the functional excellence that is
required for us to achieve that vision. We are
acting with urgency to remove the remaining
obstacles in our path, while being transparent
to all stakeholders. And we are committed to
driving continuous improvement in creating
shareholder value in 2013 and beyond.

Delivering Great Products…and Building Customer Satisfaction
Great products are part of Navistar’s DNA, and
we are committed to continuing to deliver industry-
leading products and service.
Their common goal is to ensure that our trucks
are developed, tested and delivered to customers
according to plan.
Today’s first product priority is incorporating
industry-leading SCR emissions control systems
from Cummins Inc. The first product out of the gate
is the International ProStar+, recognized by most as
the leading Class 8 truck in the industry. Once we
add Cummins’ SCR aftertreatment, it will be an even
better truck – unleashing the product’s full potential.
Driving that launch is our cross-functional product
development team, led by Tom Smith, director
of Global Chassis Systems. The group brings
together our internal engineering team, engineers
from Cummins and other supplier partners, and
specialists from quality, purchasing, engineering,
manufacturing and other functions.
“The team is using common and best practice
methods to assure we hit our delivery and quality
milestones,” Smith said. “Our Integrated Master
Schedule details the critical path elements, so that
the team and leadership can focus on the most
imperative elements of the plan.”
Perhaps the most significant early milestone
was the launch of the first ProStar+ with the
ISX 15-liter engine. Moving in parallel to the ISX
15-liter program is the addition of Cummins’ SCR
technology to the MaxxForce® 13-liter engine,
which also powers the ProStar+. That team
is committed to launch in April 2013, with
unprecedented levels of quality.
Our product development team uses
best practice methods to hit critical
launch dates.
Engineering works closely with
specialists from quality, purchasing
and manufacturing to ensure trucks
are delivered according to plan.
Our Customer Support Center
helps fleets take full advantage of
our best-in-class dealer network.

Satisfaction
Smith is also overseeing teams that are driving
the addition of SCR technology to medium-duty
vehicles, and developing our next-generation
MaxxForce 13-liter engine, further optimized for
SCR to make a great product even greater.
“Our past EGR work has also uncovered solutions
and controls for maximizing fuel economy,” Smith
said. “As a result, our ProStar+ will now meet the
industry’s standard for NOx emissions with industry-
leading fuel economy.”
Our focus on delivering great products is backed up
with a commitment to customer support, exemplified
by our dealer network and our internal customer
support team. Using Navistar’s suite of after-sales
support services, OnCommand™, that support team
works to help customers achieve best-in-class
uptime, life-cycle value and total cost of ownership.
“We’ve found that customers want the ability to take
full advantage of our dealer network, regardless
of their truck’s location,” said Anthony Balkonis,
director, Customer Support Center. “They appreciate
the ability to talk with a specialist who can deliver
any and all Navistar resources, as needed, to keep
their truck moving forward.”
A web-based case management system connects
customers with International® service locations and
Navistar support groups. Using an online portal,
bigger fleets can monitor the status of open case
files for any enrolled trucks—instantly.
Teams like Smith’s and Balkonis’s represent the best
of Navistar’s traditions. They are working around the
clock to ensure that our customers can do the same.
The International® DuraStar®,
a leader in medium duty,
provides versatility as well
as low cost of ownership.

Quality and Cost: Launching the Manufacturing Execution System
Producing high-quality products can provide a
number of benefits, including reduced cost to build
and deliver those products, reduced warranty spend
and improved customer satisfaction. To ensure
improved quality at every stage of the process,
Navistar is deploying integrated launch teams from
a broad range of functional areas, including product
development, procurement, project management,
manufacturing, and quality and reliability.
The company is also supporting those integrated
teams by investing in a computerized Manufacturing
Execution System (MES) that provides an
information technology infrastructure for sharing
real-time data directly with our operators on the line.
“Achieving world-class manufacturing operations
means beefing up our state-of-the-art technology
and equipment,” said Jan Allman, vice president of
truck manufacturing. “It also requires using
a well-defined system of metrics and shared
best practices. MES addresses all these areas.”
MES will allow us to train operators; document and
explain critical quality processes; and access and
critically monitor all our systems from kiosks at
operator stations on the plant floor. The system also
assures that quality parts are delivered to the line
exactly where they are needed.
MES also provides better visibility into real-time
process checks, and can accommodate new
process checks as we drive to ensure we are
building the industry’s highest-quality vehicles.
For example, we are now implementing a feature
that uses operators’ badge swipes at login to
confirm they have had appropriate training for a
specific manufacturing process, before the system
will permit the manufacturing line to initiate
that process.
“The best way to guarantee that our products
maintain a high level of quality after they leave the
plant is verifying they are built right the first time,”
Allman said. “To address this, we have focused
on the validation of our parts and processes with
operators. By building in more up-front training and
adding confirmation stations, we are able to attest to
improved quality for every part built on the line as it
passes through the stations.”
The phased implementation of MES began at the
Escobedo, Mexico truck plant in order to support the
pilot build of the first ProStar+ with the Cummins
ISX 15-liter engine, which launched in November.
Soon, all of our manufacturing facilities will be able
to share real-time information about opportunities
for improvement. And because quality improvement
is a long-term journey, MES is scalable to address
our future needs.
“We have already improved significantly in achieving
our targets, and Plant Manager Miguel Rojas and
his team in Escobedo have played a significant
part in our success,” Allman said. “Today, more than
90 percent of our trucks built during a given day
are shipped that same night. Over the long term,
we believe we can become the quality leader in
our industry.”
The best way to guarantee quality is
verifying that products are built right
the first time.

Urgency
Urgency: A Focus on Cost and Functional Excellence
The sooner we achieve necessary improvements,
the better for Navistar. The company is becoming
faster, more efficient and more focused. We have
reorganized ourselves to make decisions more quickly
and to drive greater accountability. And we are taking
full advantage of the fact that our entire organization is
now co-located in Lisle, Ill. – permitting a cadence of
frequent interaction that reflects our focus on urgency.
At our senior leadership team’s weekly meetings, the
right people are in the room to make key decisions
within minutes. This team then meets monthly with the
company’s top 260 leaders, mobilizing that group for
action. And the senior team has been reorganized so
that line executives are also directly responsible for
driving functional excellence. For example:
• The leader of North American truck and parts
also heads up sales and marketing.
• Our chief procurement officer is also responsible
for driving our Lean initiatives.
• And product development is integrated with
product planning.
Urgency is also driving improved day-to-day
coordination among engineering, finance,
procurement and other functions. Persio Lisboa,
chief procurement officer, saw the emphasis on
speed when President and Chief Operating Officer
Troy Clarke was placed in charge of all operations.
“Troy decided that if we have completed due diligence,
no decision should take more than 48 hours,” Lisboa
said. “Requesters need to think like approvers,
evaluating both opportunity and
financial feasibility.”
Lisboa cited one recent example: development
of a new, standard frame for the floors of our IC
buses. Previous frames used 36 different parts and
relied on intensive welding, resulting in increased
complexity in the floor’s assembly. The engineering
and procurement groups determined that the frame
could be completely modular, using only five different
parts, with increased use of mass-produced stamping,
roll-forming and spot-welding.
The team initially decided to defer the project, as the
required tooling investment was not in the 2013 plan.
However, working with finance, the team approached
the frame’s supplier, who agreed to participate in
reducing the tooling investment, making the business
case very attractive.
Moving to the new frame had multiple benefits:
• Reduction of the frame’s weight by 70 pounds
• Annual cost reduction of $1 million
• Improved precision from increased stamping
• Increased reliance on robotic spot welding,
reducing costs and improving quality
• Reduced labor time for both frame production
and bus assembly
“With procurement, finance and engineering working
together to develop the final configuration, the bus
team was able to swiftly make an educated final
decision,” Lisboa said. “Funds were reprioritized to
support the project within 48 hours.”
An empowered
cross-functional team
swiftly approved
a new standard
floor frame for IC
buses, reducing
annual costs by an
estimated $1 million.

Item 1.
Business
PART I
Navistar International Corporation ("NIC"), incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 1993, is a holding
company whose principal operating subsidiaries are Navistar, Inc. and Navistar Financial Corporation ("NFC"). References
herein to the "Company," "we," "our," or "us" refer to NIC and its subsidiaries, including certain variable interest entities
("VIEs") of which we are the primary beneficiary. We report our annual results for our fiscal year, which ends October 31. As
such, all references to 2012, 2011, and 2010 contained within this Annual Report on Form 10-K relate to the fiscal year unless
otherwise indicated.
Overview
We are an international manufacturer of International® brand commercial and military trucks, IC Bus™ ("IC") brand buses,
MaxxForce® brand diesel engines, and recreational vehicles ("RV") under the Monaco® RV ("Monaco") family of brands, as
well as a provider of service parts for all makes of trucks and trailers. Additionally, we are a private-label designer and
manufacturer of diesel engines for the pickup truck, van, and sport-utility vehicle ("SUV") markets. We also provide retail,
wholesale, and lease financing of our trucks and parts.
Our Strategy
Our core business is the North American truck and bus market, where we participate primarily in the Class 4 through 8 vehicle
market segments. We believe that a fundamental factor in achieving success in these markets is the integration of our engines
into the trucks we manufacture. Historically we had success in the bus and Class 6 and 7 truck segments due to the integration
of our engines in these vehicles. In 2009, we expanded our engine offering to include heavy-duty big-bore engines branded
MaxxForce 11L or 13L, which were offered in our Class 8 vehicles. We believe that an effective vertical integration of our
engines and trucks where we have a strong market share is the best method to create product differentiation and value as it
distinguishes product performance and creates an expanded stream of revenue for service parts over the life cycle of the
vehicle. We also recently expanded our truck product offering to include a Class 4 and 5 vehicle and believe this will be an
important element of our growth going forward.
Emissions regulation is a key element of our industry. Historically, a fundamental component of our strategy was to leverage
Advanced Exhaust Gas Recirculation ("EGR"), which we believed to have certain advantages, as part of a proprietary engine
technology path. It was our belief that our proprietary engine technology would eliminate the need for additional after-
treatment components on our vehicles, including urea-based Selective Catalytic Reduction ("SCR").
We failed to achieve Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") certification of this technology path to meet 2010 EPA
emissions standards for our heavy-duty engines and as a result, in July 2012, we announced a change to our engine emissions
strategy. We are now aggressively pursuing the technology path followed by others in the industry by adding SCR components
to our engines and our vehicles.
In addition to modifying our technology path to meet emissions standards, we decided to discontinue our investment in certain
heavy-duty engines and discontinue product development on our MaxxForce 15L Big-Bore engine in favor of purchasing 15L
engines from a proven and established engine original equipment manufacturer ("OEM") supplier. In December 2012, we
introduced trucks with these engines to the market. We believe the offering of a proven and market-accepted 15L engine
combined with our trucks will allow us to increase our customer-base and, potentially, enhance our share of the Class 8 market.
We continue to believe that with our new engine strategy, our products will demonstrate superior performance as measured by
fuel economy and that we will be successful in recapturing market share. To that end, our primary focus in the near term is to
execute the change in our engine strategy and to improve the quality of our products. We redeployed a substantial portion of
our resources to focus on this direction.
We have renewed our focus on our primary markets, which are North American Class 4 through 8 trucks and buses, and
realigned the Company around a more functionally-oriented structure in order to reduce overhead expenses and other costs. We
implemented a new Return on Invested Capital ("ROIC") methodology to determine where we will focus our investments as
well as identify businesses that do not return their cost of capital. Additionally, we are using a ROIC decision framework to re-
examine our individual businesses. This effort is ongoing, and may lead to some divestitures of businesses that are not
contributing favorably to our goals.
We are also realigning our management structure around the functional expertise needed to execute our core North American
strategy. We believe this realignment will result in better execution of our strategies, streamline the decision making process,
create better alignment towards a common objective, and reduce our operating costs.

Emissions Standards Compliance Update
We continue to be impacted by challenges related to our strategy for meeting 2010 EPA emissions standards. However, over the
latter half of 2012, we have made a number of significant strides, including:
•
•
In July 2012, we announced our next-generation clean engine solution to meet 2010 EPA emissions standards. Our
engine strategy combines our EGR engines with an after-treatment solution utilizing SCR.
In October 2012, we signed a definitive agreement with Cummins Inc. ("Cummins") for Cummins to supply its urea-
based after-treatment system to us. This after-treatment system will be combined with our engines to meet 2010 EPA
emissions standards and we expect it to help facilitate our satisfaction of future greenhouse gas ("GHG") standards such
as those applicable to medium and heavy-duty engines and vehicles being phased in for model years 2014 to 2017. In
addition to our agreement with Cummins, we continue to refine plans and timelines to begin introducing our new
product offering, taking into consideration a number of factors, including: current and projected balances of emissions
credits currently used to meet EPA emissions standards; our ability to utilize non-conformance penalties ("NCPs") to
achieve compliance; projected sales volumes; and customer needs. We maintain our target of a phased-in product
introduction plan commencing with the MaxxForce 13L engine in April 2013, followed by our medium engine offerings.
• As part of our expanded relationship with Cummins, we are offering the Cummins ISX15 engine (the "Cummins 15L"),
which currently meets EPA emissions standards, in certain models. We began offering the Cummins 15L engine as a part
of our North American on-highway truck line-up in December 2012.
We believe that our new engine strategy provides a path to meeting 2010 EPA emissions standards, as well as GHG standards,
and positions us for future success. This will help to address distractions and uncertainty around engine certification and
continuation of heavy-duty product offerings that had a detrimental impact on our performance, including a deterioration of
market share. In the near term, we expect to be further impacted during the transition to our new engine strategy. For example,
we have incurred significant research, development, and tooling costs to design and produce our engine product lines to meet
the EPA and California Air Resources Board ("CARB") on-highway heavy-duty diesel ("HDD") emissions standards, including
the required on-board diagnostics ("OBD"). These emissions standards have resulted in, and will continue to result in, a
significant increase in the cost of our products. In addition, the ongoing nature of our transition to a new engine strategy creates
the potential for gaps in our product offerings that could further impact our results.
Our Operating Segments
We operate in four industry segments: Truck, Engine, Parts (collectively called "manufacturing operations"), and Financial
Services, which consists of NFC and our foreign finance operations (collectively called "financial services operations").
Corporate contains those items that do not fit into our four segments. Selected financial data for each segment, as well as
information relating to customer concentration, can be found in Note 15, Segment reporting, to the accompanying consolidated
financial statements.
Truck Segment
The Truck segment manufactures and distributes a full line of Class 4 through 8 trucks and buses in the common carrier, private
carrier, government, leasing, construction, energy/petroleum, military vehicle, and student and commercial transportation
markets under the International and IC brands. This segment also produces RVs, including non-motorized towables, under the
Monaco family of brands, and concrete mixers under the Continental Mixers brand, as well as we expect future offerings of
refuse truck bodies under the E-Z Pack brand. During 2012, we idled our Workhorse Custom Chassis (“WCC”) business. Our
strategy is to continue to deliver the highest quality commercial trucks, buses, RVs, and defense vehicles. The Truck segment is
our largest operating segment based on total external sales and revenues.
The Truck segment's manufacturing operations in the U.S. and Mexico (collectively called "North America") consist principally
of the assembly of components manufactured by our suppliers, and to a lesser extent, the production of certain sheet metal
components, including truck cabs.
We compete primarily in the School bus and Class 4 through 8 medium and heavy truck markets within the U.S. and Canada,
which we consider our "traditional" markets. We continue to develop our "expansion" markets, which include Mexico,
international export, U.S. and non-U.S. military, RV, and other truck and bus markets. The products we sell to the U.S. military
are derivatives of our commercial vehicles and allow us to leverage our manufacturing and engineering expertise, utilize
existing plants, and seamlessly integrate our engines. We also sell International and CAT branded trucks through our alliance
with Caterpillar Inc. ("Caterpillar") in North America and other global markets. We also have a joint venture with Mahindra &
Mahindra Ltd. ("Mahindra") called Mahindra Navistar Automotives Ltd. (“MNAL”). The Company is in discussions with
Mahindra regarding the potential purchase by Mahindra of our interests in MNAL.
5
We market our commercial products through our extensive independent dealer network in North America, which offers a
comprehensive range of services and other support functions to our end users. Our commercial trucks are distributed in
virtually all key markets in North America, as well as select markets outside of North America, through our distribution and
service network retail outlets, which is comprised of; 784 in the U.S. and Canada, 86 in Mexico, and 292 international
locations, as of October 31, 2012. We occasionally acquire and operate dealer locations ("Dealcors") for the purpose of
transitioning ownership. In addition, our network of used truck centers and International certified used truck dealers in the U.S.
and Canada provides trade-in support to our dealers and national accounts group, and markets all makes and models of
reconditioned used trucks to owner-operators and fleet buyers.
The markets in which the Truck segment competes are subject to considerable volatility and fluctuation in response to cycles in
the overall business environment. These markets are particularly sensitive to the industrial sector, which generates a significant
portion of the freight tonnage hauled. Government regulation has also impacted, and will continue to impact, trucking
operations as well as the efficiency and specifications of trucking equipment.
The Class 4 through 8 truck and bus markets in North America are highly competitive. Major U.S.-controlled domestic
competitors include: PACCAR Inc. ("PACCAR") and Ford. Competing foreign-controlled domestic manufacturers include:
Freightliner and Western Star (both subsidiaries of Daimler-Benz AG ("Mercedes Benz")), Volvo and Mack (both subsidiaries
of Volvo Global Trucks), and Hino (a subsidiary of Toyota Motor Corporation ("Toyota")). Major U.S. military vehicle
competitors include: BAE Systems, Force Protection, Inc., General Dynamics Land Systems, and Oshkosh Truck. In addition,
smaller, foreign-controlled market participants such as Isuzu Motors America, Inc. ("Isuzu"), UD Trucks North America (a
subsidiary of AB Volvo ("UD Trucks")), and Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. ("Mitsubishi") are competing in the
U.S. and Canadian markets with primarily imported products. For the RV business, our major competitors include: Thor
Industries, Inc., Forest River, Inc., Tiffin Motorhomes, Inc., Winnebago Industries, Inc., and Fleetwood RV, Inc. In Mexico, the
major domestic competitors are Kenmex (a subsidiary of PACCAR) and Mercedes Benz.
Engine Segment
The Engine segment designs and manufactures diesel engines across the 50 through 500 horsepower range under the
MaxxForce brand name for use primarily in our International branded Class 6 and 7 medium trucks, Class 8 heavy trucks, and
military vehicles, our IC branded school buses, as well as other applications. In addition to providing high-tech diesel engines
for Navistar captive applications, our engines are also sold to global OEMs for various on-and-off-road applications. Our
engines are sold worldwide for use in an assortment of applications utilizing the MaxxForce brand name. Also, we offer
contract manufacturing services to OEMs for the assembly of their engines, particularly in South America. Also included in the
Engine segment is our Blue Diamond Parts ("BDP") joint venture with Ford, which manages the sourcing, merchandising, and
distribution of certain service parts for North American Ford vehicles. The Engine segment is our third largest operating
segment based on total external sales and revenues.
To help us return to profitability, our strategy is to expand our Engine segment sales, grow our global presence through our
South American subsidiary and joint ventures, and control our costs. The Engine segment has engaged in various strategic joint
ventures to further our reach to global markets, including our joint venture in China with Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Co
("JAC") and in India with Mahindra called Mahindra-Navistar Engines Private Ltd (“MNEPL”). The Company is in
discussions with Mahindra regarding the potential purchase by Mahindra of our interests in MNEPL.
To control cost and technology, the Engine segment previously expanded its operations to include Pure Power Technologies,
LLC ("PPT"), a components company focused on air, fuel, and after-treatment systems to meet more stringent Euro and U.S.
EPA emissions standards.
The Engine segment has manufacturing operations in the U.S., Brazil, and Argentina. The operations at these facilities consist
principally of the assembly of components manufactured by PPT and our suppliers, as well as machining operations relating to
steel and grey iron components, and certain higher technology components necessary for our engine manufacturing operations.
In South America, our subsidiary, MWM International Industria De Motores Da America Do Sul Ltda. ("MWM") merged into
another wholly-owned subsidiary, International Indústria de Motores da América do Sul Ltda. ("IIAA") in 2011 and is now
known as IIAA. IIAA is a leader in the South American mid-range diesel engine market, sells products in more than 35
countries on five continents, and provides customers with additional engine offerings in the agriculture, marine, and light truck
markets.
6
In the U.S. and Canada mid-range commercial truck diesel engine market, our primary competitors are Cummins, Mercedes
Benz, Isuzu, and Hino. In South America, IIAA competes with Mitsubishi and Toyota in the Mercosul pickup and SUV
markets; Cummins, Mercedes Benz, and Fiat Powertrain ("FPT") in the light and medium truck markets; Mercedes Benz,
Cummins, Scania, MAN, Volvo, and FPT in the heavy truck market; Mercedes Benz in the bus market; New Holland (a
subsidiary of CNH Global N.V.), Sisu Diesel (a subsidiary of AGCO Corporation), and Deere & Company in the agricultural
market; and Scania and Cummins in the stationary market. In Mexico, we compete in Classes 4 through 8 with our MaxxForce
4.8L, 7L, DT, and 9L engines, facing competition from Cummins, Isuzu, Hino, Mercedes Benz, and Ford. The introduction of
our MaxxForce 11L and 13L Big-Bore engines in Mexico will depend on the availability of low sulfur diesel fuel throughout
the country.
Parts Segment
The Parts segment supports our brands of International commercial and military trucks, IC buses, MaxxForce engines, as well
as our other product lines, by providing customers with proprietary products together with a wide selection of other standard
truck, trailer, and engine service parts. We distribute service parts in North America and the rest of the world through the dealer
network that supports our Truck and Engine segments. The Parts segment is our second largest operating segment based on
total external sales and revenues.
We believe our extensive dealer channel provides us with an advantage in serving our customers by having our parts available
when and where our customers require service. Goods are delivered to our customers either through one of our eleven regional
parts distribution centers in North America or through direct shipment from our suppliers for parts not generally stocked at our
distribution centers. We have a dedicated parts sales team within North America, as well as national account teams focused on
large fleet customers, and a government and military team. In addition, we serve global customers with dedicated sales teams
and distribution centers in South Africa. In conjunction with the Truck sales and technical service group, we provide an
integrated support team that works to find solutions to support our customers.
Financial Services Segment
The Financial Services segment provides and manages retail, wholesale, and lease financing of products sold by the Truck and
Parts segments and their dealers within the U.S. and Mexico. Substantially all revenues earned by the Financial Services
segment are derived from supporting the sales of our vehicles and products. We also finance wholesale and retail accounts
receivable, of which substantially all revenues earned are received from the Truck and Parts segments. The Financial Services
segment continues to meet the primary goal of providing and managing financing to our customers in U.S. and Mexico markets
by arranging cost-effective funding sources, while working to mitigate credit losses and impaired vehicle asset values. This
segment provided wholesale financing for 88% and 90% of our new truck inventory sold by us to our dealers and distributors in
the U.S. in 2012 and 2011, respectively.
The Financial Services segment manages the relationship with Navistar Capital (an alliance with GE Capital) which provides
retail financing to our customers in the U.S. GE Capital has provided financing to support the sale of our products in Canada
for over 20 years. This segment is also facilitating financing relationships in other countries to align with the Company's global
operations.
Government Contracts
As a U.S. government contractor, we are subject to specific regulations and requirements as mandated by our contracts. These
regulations include Federal Acquisition Regulations, Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations, and the Code of Federal
Regulations. We are also subject to routine audits and investigations by U.S. government agencies such as the Defense Contract
Management Agency and Defense Contract Audit Agency. These agencies review and assess compliance with contractual
requirements, cost structure, cost accounting, and applicable laws, regulations, and standards.
Many of our existing U.S. government contracts extend over multiple years and are conditioned upon the continuing
availability of congressional appropriations. In addition, our U.S. government contracts generally permit the contracting
government agency to terminate the contract, in whole or in part, either for the convenience of the government or for default
based on our failure to perform under the contract.
Engineering and Product Development
Our engineering and product development programs are focused on product improvements, innovations, and cost-reductions,
and these related costs are incurred by our Truck and Engine segments. As a truck manufacturer, we are focused on further
development of our International brand commercial trucks and military trucks, as well as modifying our trucks to accommodate
our MaxxForce engines with the Cummins' urea-based after-treatment system and the integration of the Cummins 15L engine.
As a diesel engine manufacturer, we have incurred research, development, and tooling costs to design our engine product lines
7
to meet emissions and OBD regulatory requirements and to provide engine solutions to support a global marketplace. The
Company participates in very competitive markets with constant changes in regulatory requirements and technology and,
accordingly, the Company continues to believe that a strong commitment to engineering and product development is required to
drive long-term growth. Our engineering and product development expenditures were $539 million in 2012 compared to $532
million in 2011 and $464 million in 2010.
Acquisitions, Strategic Agreements, and Joint Ventures
We continuously seek and evaluate opportunities in the marketplace that provide us with the ability to leverage new technology,
expand our engineering expertise, provide access to "expansion" markets, and identify component and material sourcing
alternatives that meet our ROIC thresholds. Periodically, we enter into collaborative strategic relationships and acquire
businesses that allow us to generate manufacturing efficiencies, economies of scale, and market growth opportunities. We also
routinely re-evaluate our existing relationships to determine whether they continue to provide the benefits we originally
envisioned as well as review potential partners for new opportunities. We consider the following joint ventures and businesses
an integral part of our long-term growth strategy:
•
•
•
In 2006 and 2008, we completed two joint ventures with Mahindra in India. We have a 49% ownership in each joint
venture, which operate under the names of MNAL and MNEPL, respectively. The Company is in discussions with
Mahindra regarding the potential purchase by Mahindra of our interests in MNAL and MNEPL.
In August 2012, the Company and JAC received formal approval from the Chinese government to move forward with
their commercial engine joint venture. The joint venture will focus on meeting the emerging needs of the Chinese
commercial truck market by providing JAC with access to Navistar's Euro IV and Euro V compliant technology. The
joint venture also sets the stage for global export opportunities of JAC's light-, medium- and heavy-duty commercial
trucks. The joint venture is subject to finalization of certain ancillary agreements among the parties.
During 2012, the Company also initiated certain strategic initiatives, including an agreement with Indiana Phoenix to sell
front-discharge concrete mixers through our Continental Mixer subsidiary, and the acquisition of certain assets from E-Z
Pack related to the manufacture of refuse truck bodies.
The Company is currently evaluating its portfolio of assets to validate their strategic and financial fit. To allow us to increase
our focus on our North America core businesses, we are evaluating product lines, businesses, and engineering programs that
fall outside of our core businesses. We are using ROIC, combined with an assessment of the strategic fit to our core businesses,
to identify areas that are not performing to our expectations. For those areas, we are evaluating whether to fix, divest, or close
and expect to realize incremental benefits from these actions in the near future.
Backlog
Our worldwide backlog of unfilled truck orders, which are subject to cancellation or return in certain circumstances, as of
October 31, 2012 and 2011 are provided in the following table:

Production of our October 31, 2012 backlog is expected to be substantially completed during 2013. Although the backlog of
unfilled orders is one of many indicators of market demand, other factors such as changes in production rates, internal and
supplier available capacity, new product introductions, and competitive pricing actions may affect point-in-time comparisons.
Employees
As our business requirements change, fluctuations may occur within our workforce from year to year. In 2012, our employee
headcount was impacted by actions taken to control spending across the Company which included targeted reductions of
certain costs. These actions, announced in August 2012, included offering the majority of our U.S.-based non-represented
salaried employees the opportunity to apply for a voluntary separation program ("VSP"). Along with the employees who chose
to participate in the VSP, we also used attrition and an involuntary reduction in force to eliminate additional positions in order
to meet our targeted reductions goal. In addition to these actions in the U.S., our Brazilian operations utilized an involuntary
reduction in force to eliminate certain positions. Approximately 1,300 employees were impacted by these actions, of which
1,200 employees exited by October 31, 2012 and the remaining will exit in 2013. For more information, see Note 2,
Restructurings and Impairments, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

(A) Employees are considered inactive in certain situations including disability leave, leave of absence, layoffs, and work stoppages. Included within inactive
employees are approximately 600 employees, 1,000 employees, and 1,100 employees as of October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, represented
by the National Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of Canada ("CAW") at our Chatham, Ontario heavy truck plant related to the
expiration of the CAW contract on June 30, 2009. In 2011, the Company committed to close this facility due to an inability to reach a collective
bargaining agreement with the CAW.
Patents and Trademarks
We seek and obtain patents on our inventions and own a significant patent portfolio. Additionally, many of the components we
purchase for our products are protected by patents that are owned or controlled by the component manufacturer. We have
licenses under third-party patents relating to our products and their manufacture and grant licenses under our patents. The
monetary royalties paid or received under these licenses are not material.
Our primary trademarks are an important part of our worldwide sales and marketing efforts and provide instant identification of
our products and services in the marketplace. To support these efforts, we maintain, or have pending, registrations of our
primary trademarks in those countries in which we do business or expect to do business. We grant licenses under our
trademarks for consumer-oriented goods, such as toy trucks and apparel, outside the product lines that we manufacture. The
monetary royalties received under these licenses are not material.
Supply
We purchase raw materials, parts, and manufactured components from numerous third-party suppliers. To avoid duplicate
tooling expenses and to maximize volume benefits, single-source suppliers fill a majority of our requirements for parts and
manufactured components.
The impact of an interruption in supply will vary by commodity and type of part. Some parts are generic to the industry while
others are of a proprietary design requiring unique tooling, which require additional effort to relocate. However, we believe our
exposure to a disruption in production as a result of an interruption of raw materials and supplies is no greater than the industry
as a whole. In order to alleviate losses resulting from an interruption in supply, we maintain contingent business interruption
insurance for loss of earnings and/or extra expense directly resulting from physical loss or damage at a direct supplier location.
While we believe we have adequate assurances of continued supply, the inability of a supplier to deliver could have an adverse
effect on production at certain of our manufacturing locations.
Impact of Government Regulation
Truck and engine manufacturers continue to face significant governmental regulation of their products, especially in the areas
of environmental and safety matters. New on-highway emissions standards commenced in the U.S. on January 1, 2007, which
reduced allowable particulate matter and allowable nitrogen oxide ("NOx") and have reached the last phase-in period effective
with engine model year 2010. This change in emissions standards resulted in a significant increase in the cost of our products to
meet these emissions levels.
In 2010, the initial phase-in of OBD requirements commenced for the initial family of truck engines and those products have
been certified. The phase-in for the remaining engine families occurs in 2013. Canadian heavy-duty engine emissions
regulations essentially mirror those of the EPA. In Mexico, we offer EPA 2004 and Euro IV engines that comply with current
standards in that country.
9
Truck manufacturers are also subject to various noise standards imposed by federal, state, and local regulations. The engine is
one of a truck's primary sources of noise, and we therefore work closely with OEMs to develop strategies to reduce engine
noise. We are also subject to the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act ("Safety Act") and Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards ("Safety Standards") promulgated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration ("NHTSA").
Government regulation related to climate change is under consideration at the U.S. federal and state levels. Because our
products use fossil fuels, they may be impacted indirectly due to regulation, such as a cap and trade program, affecting the cost
of fuels. On May 21, 2010, President Obama directed the EPA and the Department of Transportation to adopt rules by July 30,
2011 setting greenhouse gas emission and fuel economy standards for medium and heavy-duty engines and vehicles beginning
with model year 2014. The EPA and NHTSA issued proposed rules on November 30, 2010. We were active participants in the
discussions surrounding the development of regulations and filed comments with the EPA on the proposed rules on January 31,
2011. The final rules, which were issued on September 15, 2011, begin to apply in 2014 and are fully implemented in model
year 2017. The agencies' stated goals for these rules were to increase the use of currently existing technologies. The Company
plans to comply with these rules through use of existing technologies and implementation of emerging technologies as they
become available. Several of the Company's vehicles have been certified early for the 2013 model year with the remaining
vehicles and all engines required to be certified in 2014. In addition to the U.S., Canada and Mexico are also considering the
adoption of fuel economy and/or greenhouse gas regulations. On April 14, 2012, Canada issued for comment proposed
greenhouse gas emissions regulations (the "Canadian Proposal"), which are similar to the U.S. regulations. The Company is
evaluating the Canadian Proposal and expects to comment as necessary. We expect that heavy duty fuel economy rules will be
under consideration in other global jurisdictions in the future. These standards will impact development and production costs
for vehicles and engines. There will also be administrative costs arising from the implementation of the rules.
Our facilities may be subject to regulation related to climate change and climate change itself may also have some impact on
the Company's operations. However, these impacts are currently uncertain and the Company cannot predict the nature and
scope of those impacts.

Executive Officers of the Registrant
The following selected information for each of our current executive officers (as defined by regulations of the SEC) was
prepared as of November 30, 2012.
Lewis B. Campbell, 66, has served as Chief Executive Officer of NIC and Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors of

Item 1A.
Risk Factors
Our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows are subject to various risks, many of which are not exclusively
within our control, which may cause actual performance to differ materially from historical or projected future performance.
We have in place an Enterprise Risk Management ("ERM") process that involves systematic risk identification and mitigation
covering the categories of Strategic, Financial, Operational, and Compliance risk. The goal of ERM is not to eliminate all risk,
but rather to identify, assess and rank risks; assign, mitigate and monitor risks; and report the status of our risks to the
Management Risk Committee and the Board of Directors and its committees. The risks described below could materially and
adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. These risks are not the only risks that we
face and our business operations could also be affected by additional factors that are not presently known to us or that we
currently consider to be immaterial to our operations.
Our solutions for meeting U.S. federal and state emissions requirements may not be successful or may be more costly than
planned.
Truck and engine manufacturers continue to face significant governmental regulation of their products, especially in the areas
of environment and safety. We have incurred, and will continue to incur, significant research, development, and tooling costs to
design and produce our engine product lines to meet the EPA and CARB on-highway HDD emission standards that have
reduced the allowable levels of NOx to the current limit of 0.20g NOx and include the required OBD. The regulations requiring
OBD began the initial phase-in during 2010 for truck engines and are a part of our product plans.
We attempted to meet these emissions standards using Advanced EGR until July 2012, when we announced that we changed
our engine emission strategy for our HDD engines from an EGR-only strategy to a strategy of combining our EGR technology
with SCR after-treatment systems. Both of these HDD engine strategies have resulted in and will continue to result in potential
uncertainties related to our ability to meet these emission standards, and/or an increase in the cost of our products, and have
several associated risks that we have set forth below. Any of the following risks relating to our HDD engine strategies could
materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources, or cash
flows. Although the following describes those scenarios which we can reasonably anticipate, we can offer no assurances that
other outcomes will not occur or that the effects of the scenarios described below will not be more severe than we currently
anticipate.
In 2012, 2011 and 2010, certain of our HDD engine families met EPA and CARB certification requirements by using emission
credits we earned by producing low-NOx engines earlier than was required by the EPA. In January 2012, the EPA promulgated
the Interim Final Rule establishing NCPs for HDD engines, and we began using NCPs for trucks using certain of our HDD
engines in 2012. In June 2012, the D.C. Circuit Court ruled that the EPA did not follow the required rulemaking processes and
issued an order vacating the Interim Final Rule. The Company, as an intervenor in that action, asked for a rehearing, and in
August 2012, the D.C. Circuit Court denied that request. The Court's ruling became final on August 24, 2012. Following that
decision, some of our competitors filed a lawsuit asking the D.C. Circuit Court to invalidate the emission certificates issued to
us under the Interim Final Rule. The D.C. Circuit Court has not yet ruled on this matter, and we cannot assure you that the court
will rule in our favor.
Also in January 2012, the EPA published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for a final NCP rule (the "Final Rule"), which
proposed to make NCPs available in model years 2012 and later for emissions of NOx above the 0.20g limit for both medium
and heavy HDD engines. The EPA approved the Final Rule for heavy HDD engines on September 5, 2012, and indicated that it
was still reviewing comments and data, and thus would not finalize NCPs at that time as to medium HDD engines, for which
the Company has emissions credits expected to last into calendar year 2014. After approval of the Final Rule, the maximum
NCP per heavy HDD engine is $3,775 for the remainder of 2012, and is subject to an upward annual adjustment in 2013. The
Final Rule has been challenged by some of our competitors in the D.C. Circuit Court. The court has not yet ruled on this matter,
and we cannot assure you the court will rule in our favor.
12
Currently, CARB, and the corresponding agencies of nine other states that have adopted California's emission standards, do not
make available engine certification using NCPs. Therefore, we continue to sell engines and trucks in these ten states (the "10
CARB States") using the NOx emission credits previously described. Under current conditions and at the current pace of HDD
engine production, we expect our emission credits for heavy HDD engines may be consumed sometime in the first calendar
quarter of 2013. Unless CARB (and the corresponding nine other states) begin allowing NCPs for engine sales, we will not be
able to sell trucks with our heavy HDD engines in the 10 CARB States after our credits are consumed until CARB certifies
these engines to the 0.20g NOx standard.
In October 2012, we announced a definitive agreement with Cummins under which Cummins Emission Solutions will supply
its SCR after-treatment system for our 13L engines, as well as other light and medium HDD engines. As a part of our expanded
relationship with Cummins, we are offering the Cummins 15L as a part of our North American on-highway truck line-up. We
began phasing in the Cummins 15L engine in December 2012. We expect to phase in the high volume 13L SCR engines in
April 2013. We anticipate phasing in our lower volume 13L SCR engines later in 2013 in stages. We anticipate product gaps in
the 10 CARB States for certain of the lower volume 13L EGR engines prior to full introduction of our SCR engines, which we
anticipate to be June 2013. The duration of the gaps will be dependent on a number of factors including but not limited to our
ability to execute as planned, the availability of emissions credits and product mix.
Although we passed Performance Compliance Audit (“PCA”) testing on our 13L and 15L engines, our 11L engines failed to
meet PCA testing requirements. We received a letter from the EPA notifying us of its intent to suspend or void the certificate of
conformity for our 11L engines being sold using NCPs (“11L NCP Engines”), based on our failure to timely comply with
conditions in the certificate that require PCA testing on these engines. We expect that the EPA will issue a final decision
suspending the certification of our 11L NCP Engines and will require us to take corrective action, including recalibrating or
reprogramming our 11L NCP Engines, to lower the NOx output. The EPA may also take similar action with regard to our 11L
engines sold using emissions credits.
In addition, we expect to achieve OBD certification for model year 2013 light and medium HDD engines in March 2013 for the
highest volume of these engines, and as late as June 2013 for lower volume light HDD engines. Beginning in the first calendar
quarter of 2013, we anticipate gaps in production of light and medium HDD engines as we work to achieve OBD certification.
Our 13L SCR engines must also achieve OBD certification, and these engines face similar risks if they do not achieve OBD
certification by their projected April 2013 phase-in.
Increased warranty costs may negatively impact our near term operating results.
Emissions regulations in the U.S. and Canada have resulted in rapid product development cycles, driving significant changes
from previous engine models. In 2010, we introduced changes to our engine line-up in response to 2010 emissions standards
("2010 Engines"). Component complexity and other related factors associated with meeting emissions standards have
contributed to higher repair costs that exceeded those that we have historically experienced. Historically, warranty claims
experience for launch-year engines has been higher compared to the prior model-year engines; however, over time we have
been able to refine both the design and manufacturing process to reduce both the volume and the severity of warranty claims.
While we continue to improve the design and manufacturing of our engines to reduce the volume and severity of warranty
claims, we have continued to experience higher warranty spend than expected which has contributed to significantly higher
warranty charges for current and pre-existing warranties, including charges for extended service contracts, in 2012. We
recognized adjustments to pre-existing warranties of $404 million in the year ended October 31, 2012, compared to adjustments
of $79 million and $51 million in the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in the adjustments to
pre-existing warranties in 2012 relates to the unanticipated increase in warranty spend, primarily for certain 2010 Engines. We
may continue to experience an increase in warranty spend compared to prior periods that could result in additional charges for
adjustments to pre-existing warranties. In addition, as we identify opportunities to improve the design and manufacturing of our
engines, we may incur additional charges for recalls and field campaigns to address identified issues. These charges may have
an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In fiscal 2013, to meet new emissions
requirements, including but not limited to OBD, the Company will launch several products that will incorporate additional
changes and added component complexity. These changes may result in additional future warranty expense that may have an
adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
13
We could incur restructuring and impairment charges as we continue to evaluate opportunities to restructure our business
and rationalize our manufacturing operations in an effort to optimize our cost structure.
We continue to evaluate opportunities to restructure our business and rationalize our manufacturing operations in an effort to
optimize our cost structure. These actions could result in restructuring and related charges, including but not limited to asset
impairments, employee termination costs, and charges for pension and other postretirement contractual benefits, potential
additional pension funding obligations, and pension curtailments that could be significant, which could adversely affect our
financial condition and results of operations.
We have substantial amounts of long-lived assets, including goodwill and intangible assets, which are subject to periodic
impairment analysis and review. Identifying and assessing whether impairment indicators exist, or if events or changes in
circumstances have occurred, including market conditions, operating results, competition, and general economic conditions,
requires significant judgment. Any of the above future actions could result in charges that could have an adverse effect on our
financial condition and results of operations.
Our business has significant liquidity requirements, and our recent operating results have had an adverse impact on our
liquidity position.
Our business has significant liquidity requirements, and our recent operating results have had an adverse impact on our
liquidity position. To improve our liquidity position, we recently borrowed $1.0 billion under our new senior secured, term loan
credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion (the “Term Loan Credit Facility”) and raised total net proceeds of
$206 million from our public offering of common stock in October and November 2012. We believe that our cash on-hand,
which includes the effect of these transactions, together with funds generated by our operations and potential borrowings under
our amended and restated asset-based credit agreement in an aggregate principal amount of $175 million (the “Amended and
Restated Asset-Based Credit Facility”), will provide us with sufficient liquidity and capital resources to meet our working
capital, capital expenditures, and other operating needs for the foreseeable future. Significant assumptions underlie this belief
however, including among other things, assumptions relating to North American truck volumes for 2013 and the successful
implementation of our revised engine strategy, continuing to maintain trade credit from certain key suppliers, and no material
adverse developments in our competitive market position, business, liquidity, or capital requirements. As a result, we cannot
assure you that we will continue to have sufficient liquidity to meet our operating needs. In the event that we do not have
sufficient liquidity, we may be required to seek additional capital, reduce or cut back our operating activities, or otherwise alter
our business strategy.
Our substantial indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flow, and operating flexibility.
Our significant amount of outstanding indebtedness and the covenants contained in our debt instruments could have important
consequences for our operations. The size and terms of our Term Loan Credit Facility significantly limits our ability to obtain
additional debt financing to fund future working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures, engineering and product
development costs, and other general corporate requirements. Other consequences for our operations could include:
•
•
•
•
•
increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;
limiting our ability to use operating cash flow in other areas of our business because we must dedicate a portion of these
funds to make significantly higher interest payments on our indebtedness;
limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate;
limiting our ability to take advantage of business opportunities as a result of various restrictive covenants in our debt
agreements; and
placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt.
Our ability to make required payments of principal and interest on our debt will depend on our future performance and the
other cash requirements of our business. Our performance, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, political,
financial, competitive, and other factors that are beyond our control. We cannot provide any assurance that our business will
generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowings will be available under certain of our debt agreements
in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness.
Our debt agreements contain certain restrictive covenants and customary events of default. These restrictive covenants limit our
ability to take certain actions, such as, among other things: make restricted payments; incur additional debt and issue preferred
or disqualified stock; create liens; create or permit to exist restrictions on our ability or the ability of our restricted subsidiaries
to make certain payments or distributions; engage in sale-leaseback transactions; engage in mergers or consolidations or
transfer all or substantially all of our assets; designate restricted and unrestricted subsidiaries; make certain dispositions and
transfers of assets; place limitations on the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to make distributions; enter into transactions
14
with affiliates; and guarantee indebtedness. One or more of these restrictive covenants may limit our ability to execute our
preferred business strategy, take advantage of business opportunities, or react to changing industry conditions.
Upon an event of default, if not waived by our lenders, our lenders may declare all amounts outstanding as due and payable,
which may cause cross-defaults under our other debt obligations. If our current lenders accelerate the maturity of our
indebtedness, we may not have sufficient capital available at that time to pay the amounts due to our lenders on a timely basis,
and there is no guarantee that we would be able to repay, refinance, or restructure the payments on such debt. Further, under our
Term Loan Credit Facility and our Amended and Restated Asset-Based Credit Facility, the lenders would have the right to
foreclose on certain of our assets, which could have a material adverse effect on our Company.
Upon the occurrence of a "change of control" as specified in each of the principal debt agreements of our manufacturing
operations, we are required to offer to repurchase or repay such indebtedness. Under these agreements, a "change of control" is
generally defined to include, among other things: (a) the acquisition by a person or group of at least 35 percent of our common
stock [50 percent for our 3.0% Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes (the “Convertible Notes”)], (b) a merger or
consolidation in which holders of our common stock own less than a majority of the equity in the resulting entity, or
(c) replacement of a majority of the members of our board of directors by persons who were not nominated by our current
directors. Under our Amended and Restated Asset-Based Credit Facility and our Term Loan Credit Facility, a change in control
would result in an immediate event of default, which would allow our lenders to accelerate the debt owed to them. Under the
indentures or loan agreements for our debt securities, we may be required to offer to purchase the outstanding notes under such
indentures at a premium upon a change in control. In any such event, we may not have sufficient funds available to repay
amounts outstanding under these agreements, which may also cause cross-defaults under our other debt obligations. Further,
under our Amended and Restated Asset-Based Credit Facility and our Term Loan Credit Facility, the lenders could have the
right to foreclose on certain of our assets, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of
operations.
Past and potential further downgrades in our debt ratings may adversely affect our liquidity, competitive position, and
access to capital markets.
The major debt-rating agencies routinely evaluate and rate our debt according to a number of factors, among which are our
perceived financial strength and transparency with rating agencies and timeliness of financial reporting. On August 1, 2012,
Moody's Investors Service downgraded our corporate family rating, probability of default rating, and senior note rating to B2
from B1 with a negative outlook. On September 17, 2012, Fitch Ratings downgraded its issuer default ratings for us to CCC
from B-, with a negative outlook, citing the increasing risk around our cash flow. Any further downgrade in our credit ratings
and the negative publicity as a result of any such further downgrades could adversely affect our continued access to trade credit
on customary terms as well as our ability to access capital in the future under acceptable terms and conditions.
We have significant under-funded postretirement obligations.
On a U.S. GAAP basis, the under-funded portion of our projected benefit obligation was $2.1 billion and $1.8 billion for
pension benefits at October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $1.4 billion and $1.5 billion for postretirement healthcare
benefits at October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Moreover, we have assumed expected rates of return on plan assets and
growth rates of retiree medical costs and the failure to achieve the expected rates of return and growth rates, as well as
reductions in interest rates, could have an adverse impact on our under-funded postretirement obligations, financial condition,
results of operations, and cash flows. In addition, the continued restructuring and rationalization of our business could increase
our pension funding obligations under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"). The
volatility in the financial markets affects the valuation of our pension assets and liabilities, resulting in potentially higher
pension costs and higher levels of under-funding in future periods. The requirements set forth in the ERISA and the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, as applicable to our U.S. pension plans (including such timing requirements), and
mandated by the Pension Protection Act of 2006 to fully fund our U.S. pension plans, net of any current or possible future
legislative or governmental agency relief, could also have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows even though the recently enacted pension funding relief legislation Preservation of Access to Care
for Medicare Beneficiaries and Pension Relief Act of 2010 and the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act
("MAP-21 Act") have reduced our funding requirements over the next five years.
We may not achieve all of the expected benefits from our cost saving initiatives.
We have recently implemented a number of cost saving initiatives, including the consolidation of our Truck and Engine
engineering operations, the relocation of our world headquarters to Lisle, Illinois, continued reductions in discretionary
spending, and employee headcount reductions. We expect these actions will result in significant operating cost savings, which
we estimate will be approximately $175 million of annualized savings, beginning in 2013. In addition, we continue to evaluate
additional options to improve the efficiency and performance of our operations. For example, we are evaluating opportunities
15
to restructure our business in an effort to optimize our cost structure, which could include, among other actions, rationalization
of certain manufacturing operations and/or divesting non-core businesses. We have made certain assumptions in estimating the
anticipated impact of our cost saving initiatives. These assumptions may turn out to be incorrect due to a variety of factors. In
addition, our ability to realize the expected benefits from these initiatives is subject to significant business, economic, and
competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. Some of our cost saving measures may not
have the impact on our profitability that we currently project. If we are unsuccessful in implementing these initiatives or if we
do not achieve our expected results, our results of operations and cash flows could be materially adversely affected.
A small number of our stockholders have significant influence over our business.
In October 2012, we entered into settlement agreements with two of our significant stockholders, Carl C. Icahn and several
entities controlled by him (collectively, the “Icahn Group”) and Mark H. Rachesky, MD and several entities controlled by him
(collectively, the “MHR Group”). Pursuant to the settlement agreements, in October 2012 the Icahn Group and the MHR Group
each had one representative appointed to our board of directors and to the nominating and governance committee of our board
in replacement of two incumbent directors. Additionally, pursuant to these settlement agreements, the Icahn Group and the
MHR Group have exercised their right to appoint a third mutually agreed upon representative to our board in replacement of an
incumbent director. These representatives will be included for election as director nominees at our 2013 annual meeting of
stockholders. Our board of directors will remain at ten members so long as either the Icahn Group or the MHR Group continues
to have a designee on the board.
As of October 31, 2012, based on filings made with the SEC and other information made available to us as of that date, we
believe the Icahn Group held 11,845,167 shares, or approximately 14.94% of our outstanding common stock, and the MHR
Group held 11,873,000 shares, or approximately 14.98% of our outstanding common stock, and that the Icahn Group, the MHR
Group, and two other stockholders collectively held over 50% of our common stock.
As a result of the foregoing, these few stockholders are able to exercise significant influence over the election of our board of
directors as well as matters requiring stockholder approval. Further, this concentration of ownership may adversely affect the
market price of our common stock.
Our business may be adversely affected by government contracting risks.
We derived approximately 8%, 13%, and 15% of our revenues for 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, from the U.S.
government. Certain existing U.S. government contracts extend over multiple years and are conditioned upon the continuing
availability of congressional appropriations. Congress usually appropriates funds on a fiscal-year basis and if the congressional
appropriations for a program under which we are contractors are not made, or are reduced or delayed, our contract could be
cancelled or government purchases under the contract could be reduced or delayed, which could adversely affect our financial
condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Although we have submitted multiple bids and quotes, there are no guarantees
that they will be awarded to us in the future or that volumes will be similar to volumes under previously awarded contracts. In
addition, U.S. government contracts generally permit the contracting government agency to terminate the contract, in whole or
in part, either for the convenience of the government or for default based on our failure to perform under the contract. If a
contract is terminated for convenience, we would generally be entitled to the payment of our allowable costs and an allowance
for profit on the work performed. If one of our government contracts were to be terminated for default, we could be exposed to
liability and our ability to obtain future contracts could be adversely affected.
Federal regulations and fuel economy rules may increase costs.
Additional changes to on-highway emissions or performance standards, as well as compliance with additional environmental
requirements, are expected to add to the cost of our products and increase the engineering and product development programs
of our business. In that regard, the EPA and the Department of Transportation have issued final rules on GHG emissions and
fuel economy for medium and heavy-duty vehicles and engines. The standards establish required minimum fuel economy and
GHG emissions levels for both engines and vehicles primarily through the increased use of existing technology. The rules,
which apply to our engines and vehicles, initially come into effect in 2014 and are fully implemented in model year
2017. These standards will increase costs of development for engines and vehicles and administrative costs arising from
implementation of the standards. In addition, other regulatory proposals under consideration may adversely affect our business.
We may not achieve all of the expected benefits from our recent acquisitions, joint ventures, or strategic alliances.
Over the last several years, we have completed a number of acquisitions, joint ventures, and strategic alliances as part of our
business strategy. We cannot provide any assurances that these acquisitions, joint ventures, or strategic alliances will generate
all of the expected benefits. In addition, we cannot provide assurance that we will not have disputes arise with our joint venture
partners and that such disputes will not lead to litigation or otherwise have a material adverse effect on the joint ventures or our
relationships with our joint venture partners. Failure to successfully manage and integrate these acquisitions, joint ventures, and
16
strategic alliances could materially impact our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. In light of our recent
operating results, we are currently evaluating opportunities to restructure our business in an effort to optimize our cost
structure, which could include, among other actions, rationalization of certain of our recent acquisitions, joint ventures, or
strategic alliances.
Our products are subject to export limitations and we may be prevented from shipping our products to certain nations or
buyers.
We are subject to federal licensing requirements with respect to the sale and support in foreign countries of certain of our
products and the importation of components for our products. In addition, we are obligated to comply with a variety of federal,
state, and local regulations and procurement policies, both domestically and abroad, governing certain aspects of our
international sales and support, including regulations promulgated by, among others, the U.S. Departments of Commerce,
Defense, State, and Justice.
Such licenses may be denied for reasons of U.S. national security or foreign policy. In the case of certain large orders for
exports of defense equipment, the Department of State must notify Congress at least 15 to 30 days, depending on the size and
location of the sale, prior to authorizing certain sales of defense equipment and services to foreign governments. During that
time, Congress may take action to block the proposed sale. We can give no assurances that we will continue to be successful in
obtaining the necessary licenses or authorizations or that Congress will not prevent or delay certain sales. Any significant
impairment of our ability to sell products outside of the U.S. could negatively impact our financial condition, results of
operations, and cash flows.
For products and technology exported from the U.S. or otherwise subject to U.S. jurisdiction, we are subject to U.S. laws and
regulations governing international trade and exports, including, but not limited to International Traffic in Arms Regulations,
Export Administration Regulations, the Foreign Military Sales program and trade sanctions against embargoed countries, and
destinations administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, U.S. Department of the Treasury. A determination by the
U.S. government that we have failed to comply with one or more of these export controls or trade sanctions could result in civil
or criminal penalties, including the imposition of significant fines, denial of export privileges, loss of revenues from certain
customers, and debarment from participation in U.S. government contracts.
We are subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the "FCPA") and other laws which prohibit improper payments to foreign
governments and their officials by U.S. and other business entities. We operate in countries known to experience corruption.
Our operations in such countries create the risk of an unauthorized payment by one of our employees or agents that could be in
violation of various laws including the FCPA.
Additionally, the failure to obtain applicable governmental approval and clearances could materially and adversely affect our
ability to continue to service the government contracts we maintain. Exports of some of our products to certain international
destinations may require shipment authorization from U.S. export control authorities, including the U.S. Departments of
Commerce and State, and authorizations may be conditioned on end-use restrictions.
Our international business is also highly sensitive to changes in foreign national priorities and government budgets. Sales of
military products are affected by defense budgets (both in the U.S. and abroad) and U.S. foreign policy.
We must comply with numerous miscellaneous federal national security laws, procurement regulations, and procedures, as
well as the rules and regulations of foreign jurisdictions, and our failure to comply could adversely affect our business.
We must observe laws and regulations relating to the formation, administration, and performance of federal government
contracts that affect how we do business with our clients and impose added costs on our business. For example, the Federal
Acquisition Regulations, foreign government procurement regulations, and the industrial security regulations of the Department
of Defense and related laws include provisions that:
•
•
•
•
allow our government clients to terminate or not renew our contracts if we come under foreign ownership, control, or
influence;
allow our government clients to terminate existing contracts for the convenience of the government;
require us to prevent unauthorized access to classified information; and
require us to comply with laws and regulations intended to promote various social or economic goals.
We are subject to industrial security regulations of the U.S. Departments of State, Commerce, and Defense, and other federal
agencies that are designed to safeguard against foreigners' access to classified or restricted information. As we expand our
operations internationally, we will also become subject to the rules and regulations of foreign jurisdictions. If we were to come
under foreign ownership, control, or influence, we could lose our facility security clearances, which could result in our federal
government customers terminating or deciding not to renew our contracts and could impair our ability to obtain new contracts.
17
A failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations, or procedures, including federal regulations regarding the procurement of
goods and services and protection of classified information, could result in contract termination, loss of security clearances,
suspension or prohibition from contracting with the federal government, civil fines and damages, and criminal prosecution and
penalties, any of which could materially adversely affect our business.
The markets in which we compete are subject to considerable cyclicality.
Our ability to be profitable depends in part on the varying conditions in the truck, bus, mid-range diesel engine, and service
parts markets, which are subject to cycles in the overall business environment and are particularly sensitive to the industrial
sector, which generates a significant portion of the freight tonnage hauled. Truck and engine demand is also dependent on
general economic conditions, interest rate levels and fuel costs, among other external factors.
We operate in the highly competitive North American truck market.
The North American truck market in which we operate is highly competitive. Our major U.S.-controlled domestic competitors
include: PACCAR and Ford. The competing foreign-controlled domestic manufacturers include: Freightliner and Western Star
(both subsidiaries of Mercedes Benz), Volvo and Mack (both subsidiaries of Volvo Global Trucks), and Hino (a subsidiary of
Toyota). The major U.S. military vehicle competitors include: BAE Systems, Force Protection, Inc., General Dynamics Land
Systems, and Oshkosh Truck. In addition, smaller, foreign-controlled market participants such as Isuzu, UD Trucks, and
Mitsubishi compete in the U.S. and Canadian markets with primarily imported products. In Mexico, the major domestic
competitors are Kenmex (a subsidiary of PACCAR) and Mercedes Benz.
The intensity of this competition, which is expected to continue, results in price discounting and margin pressures throughout
the industry and adversely affects our ability to increase or maintain vehicle prices. Many of our competitors have greater
financial resources, which may place us at a competitive disadvantage in responding to substantial industry changes, such as
changes in governmental regulations that require major additional capital expenditures. In addition, certain of our competitors
may have lower overall labor costs.
Our ability to execute our strategy is dependent upon our ability to attract, train, and retain qualified personnel.
Our continued success depends, in part, on our ability to identify, attract, motivate, train, and retain qualified personnel in key
functions and geographic areas. In particular, we are dependent on our ability to identify, attract, motivate, train, and retain
qualified engineers with the requisite education, background, and industry experience who can assist in the development,
enhancement, and introduction of new products and technology solutions. Further, we have significant operations in foreign
countries, including Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, and Canada, and, to effectively manage our global operations, we will need to
continue to be able to recruit, train, assimilate, motivate, and retain qualified experienced employees around the world.
Failure to attract, train, and retain qualified personnel, whether as a result of an insufficient number of qualified local residents,
difficulty in recruiting and retaining expatriates to service new global markets, or the allocation of inadequate resources to
training, integration, and retention of qualified personnel, could impair our ability to execute our business strategy and could
have an adverse effect on our business prospects. In addition, our operations or our ability to execute our business strategy may
be negatively impacted by the loss of certain personnel in connection with our VSP announced in August 2012, if we are unable
to replace the experience, skills, and knowledge base of such key personnel in a timely manner.
Our manufacturing operations are dependent upon third-party suppliers, making us vulnerable to supply shortages.
We obtain raw materials, parts, and manufactured components from third-party suppliers. Some of our suppliers are the sole
source for a particular supply item. Any delay in receiving supplies could impair our ability to deliver products to our
customers and, accordingly, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and
cash flows. The volatility in the financial markets and uncertainty in the automotive sector could result in exposure related to
the financial viability of certain of our key third-party suppliers. Suppliers may also exit certain business lines causing us to
find other suppliers for materials or components, or delay our ability to deliver products to customers, or our suppliers may
change the terms on which they are willing to provide products, any of which could adversely affect our financial condition and
results of operations. In addition, many of our suppliers have unionized workforces that could be subject to work stoppages as a
result of labor relations issues.
We are exposed to political, economic, and other risks that arise from operating a multinational business.
We have significant operations in foreign countries, primarily in Canada, Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina. We are also
developing operations in the People's Republic of China. Accordingly, our business is subject to the political, economic, and
other risks that are inherent in operating a multinational company. These risks include, among others:
•
trade protection measures and import or export licensing requirements;
18
•
tax rates in certain foreign countries that exceed those in the U.S., and the imposition of foreign withholding taxes on the
remittance of foreign earnings to the U.S.;
•
difficulty in staffing and managing international operations and the application of foreign labor regulations;
• multiple and potentially conflicting laws, regulations, and policies that are subject to change;
•
•
currency exchange rate risk; and
changes in general economic and political conditions in countries where we operate, particularly in emerging markets.
We may discover defects in vehicles potentially resulting in delays in new model launches, recall campaigns, or increased
warranty costs.
Meeting or exceeding many government-mandated safety standards is costly and often technologically challenging, especially
where one or more government-mandated standards may conflict. Government safety standards require manufacturers to
remedy defects related to motor vehicle safety through safety recall campaigns, and a manufacturer is obligated to recall
vehicles if it determines that they do not comply with a safety standard. Should we or government safety regulators determine
that a safety or other defect or noncompliance exists with respect to certain of our vehicles, there could be a delay in the launch
of a new model or a significant increase in warranty claims, the costs of which could be substantial.
Additionally, if we experience failure in some of our emissions components and the emission component defect rates of our
engines exceed a certain level set by CARB and the EPA, those engines may be subject to corrective actions by these agencies,
which may include extending the warranties of those engines. This could increase exposure beyond the stated warranty period
to the relevant regulatory useful life of the engine, and these actions could have an adverse effect on our financial condition,
results of operations and cash flows.
Our business may be adversely impacted by work stoppages and other labor relations matters.
We are subject to risk of work stoppages and other labor relations matters because a significant portion of our workforce is
unionized. As of October 31, 2012, approximately 48% of our hourly workers and 5% of our salaried workers are represented
by labor unions and are covered by collective bargaining agreements. Many of these agreements include provisions that limit
our ability to realize cost savings from restructuring initiatives such as plant closings and reductions in workforce. Our current
collective bargaining agreement with the UAW will expire in October 2014. Any strikes, threats of strikes, arbitration, or other
resistance in connection with the negotiation of new labor agreements or otherwise could materially adversely affect our
business as well as impair our ability to implement further measures to reduce structural costs and improve production
efficiencies. A lengthy strike that involves a significant portion of our manufacturing facilities could have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
We are involved in pending litigation and an adverse resolution of such litigation may adversely affect our business,
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Litigation can be expensive, lengthy, and disruptive to normal business operations. The results of complex legal proceedings
are often uncertain and difficult to predict. An unfavorable outcome of a particular matter described in our periodic filings or
any future legal proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or
cash flows. We are currently involved in a number of pending litigation matters. For additional information regarding certain
lawsuits in which we are involved, see Item 3, Legal Proceedings, and Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies, to the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Our operations are subject to environmental, health, and safety laws and regulations that could result in liabilities to us.
Our operations are subject to environmental, health, and safety laws and regulations, including those governing discharges to
air and water; the management and disposal of hazardous substances; the cleanup of contaminated sites; and health and safety
matters. We could incur material costs, including cleanup costs, civil and criminal fines, penalties, and third-party claims for
property damage or personal injury as a result of violations of our responsibilities under such laws and regulations.
Contamination has been identified at and in the vicinity of some of our current and former properties for which we have
established financial reserves. The ultimate cost of remediating contaminated sites is difficult to accurately predict and could
exceed our current estimates. While we believe that we have adequate accruals to cover the costs of the ongoing cleanup, we
and other parties may be required to conduct additional investigations and remediation in the area, including with respect to any
impacts identified in nearby bay sediments. As a result, we also could incur material costs in excess of current reserves at these
or other sites as a result of additional cleanup obligations imposed or contamination identified in the future. In addition, as
environmental, health, and safety laws and regulations have tended to become stricter, we could incur additional costs
complying with requirements that are promulgated in the future.
19
Provisions in our charter and by-laws, our stockholder rights plan, and Delaware law could delay and discourage takeover
attempts that stockholders may consider favorable.
Certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation and by-laws, and applicable provisions of Delaware corporate law, may
make it more difficult for a third-party to acquire control of us or change our board of directors and management, or may
prevent such acquisition or change. These provisions include:
•
•
•
•
•
•
the ability of our board of directors to issue so-called "flexible" preferred stock;
a provision for any board vacancies to be filled only by the remaining directors;
the inability of stockholders to act by written consent or call special meetings;
advance notice procedures for stockholder proposals to be brought before an annual meeting of our stockholders;
the affirmative vote of holders of the greater of (a) a majority of the voting power of all common stock and (b) at least
85% of the shares of common stock present at a meeting is required to approve certain change of control transactions;
and
Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which generally restricts us from engaging in certain business
combinations with a person who acquires 15% or more of our common stock for a period of three years from the date
such person acquired such common stock, unless stockholder or board approval is obtained prior to the acquisition.
In addition, the fact that our ability to utilize our tax net operating losses and research and development tax credits could be
adversely affected by a change of control could have an anti-takeover effect.
We have a stockholders rights plan, which may be triggered if any person or group becomes the beneficial owner of or
announces an offer to acquire 15% or more of our common shares.
The foregoing provisions may adversely affect the marketability of the common stock by discouraging potential investors from
acquiring our stock. In addition, these provisions could delay or frustrate the removal of incumbent directors and could make
more difficult a merger, tender offer or proxy contest involving us, or impede an attempt to acquire a significant or controlling
interest in us, even if such events might be beneficial to us and our stockholders.

Item 2.
Properties
In North America, we operate eighteen manufacturing and assembly facilities, which contain in the aggregate approximately 14
million square feet of floor space. Of these eighteen facilities, thirteen are owned and five are subject to leases. Eleven plants
manufacture and assemble trucks, buses, and chassis (which includes the Garland, Texas truck manufacturing plant, which we
announced in October 2012, our intention to close in 2013), six plants are used to build engines, and one plant is involved with
rail car manufacturing. Of these six plants that build engines, three manufacture diesel engines, one manufactures fuel injectors,
one manufactures grey iron castings, and one manufactures ductile iron castings.
Our principal product development and engineering facilities are currently located in Lisle, Illinois, Melrose Park, Illinois,
Madison Heights, Michigan, and Columbia, South Carolina. The Parts segment has seven distribution centers in the U.S., two
in Canada, and one in Mexico. The Financial Services segment also leases an office in Mexico. The Financial Services segment
announced a plan to vacate the premises of our leased office space in Schaumburg, Illinois, and relocate to our world
headquarters in Lisle, Illinois, which is expected to occur during the first quarter of 2013.
In addition, we own or lease other significant properties in the U.S. and Canada including vehicle and parts distribution centers,
sales offices, and our headquarters, which is located in Lisle, Illinois. In addition, we own and operate manufacturing plants in
both Brazil and Argentina, which contain a total of 1.3 million square feet of floor space for use by our South American engine
subsidiaries.
Not included above are the former Indianapolis, Indiana engine plant, the Union City, Indiana chassis plant, and the Chatham,
Ontario truck plant, all of which have ceased production activities.
We believe that all of our facilities have been adequately maintained, are in good operating condition, and are suitable for our
current needs. These facilities, together with planned capital expenditures, are expected to meet our needs in the foreseeable
future.

Item 3.
Legal Proceedings
Overview
We are subject to various claims arising in the ordinary course of business, and are parties to various legal proceedings that
constitute ordinary, routine litigation incidental to our business. The majority of these claims and proceedings relate to
commercial, product liability, and warranty matters. In our opinion, apart from the actions set forth below, the disposition of
these proceedings and claims, after taking into account recorded accruals and the availability and limits of our insurance
coverage, will not have a material adverse effect on our business or our financial condition, results of operations, and cash
flows.
Retiree Health Care Litigation
In April 2010, the UAW and others ("Plaintiffs") filed a "Motion of Plaintiffs Art Shy, UAW, et al for an Injunction to Compel
Compliance with the 1993 Settlement Agreement" (the "Shy Motion") in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of
Ohio (the "Court") relating to a 1993 settlement agreement concerning postretirement healthcare obligations (the “1993
Settlement Agreement”). The Shy Motion sought to enjoin the Company from implementing an administrative change relating
to prescription drug benefits under a healthcare plan for Medicare-eligible retirees (the "Part D Change"). Specifically,
Plaintiffs claimed that the Part D Change violated the terms of the 1993 Settlement Agreement previously approved by the
Court. That 1993 Settlement Agreement resolved a class action originally filed in 1992 regarding the restructuring of the
Company's then applicable retiree health care and life insurance benefits. In May 2010, the Company filed its Opposition to the
Shy Motion.
The Part D Change was effective July 1, 2010, and made the Company's prescription drug coverage for post-65 retirees ("Plan
2 Retirees") supplemental to the coverage provided by Medicare. Plan 2 retirees paid the premiums for Medicare Part D drug
coverage under the Part D Change.
In February 2011, the Court ruled on the Shy Motion (the "February 2011 Order"). The February 2011 Order sustained the
Plaintiffs' argument that the Company did not have authority to unilaterally substitute Medicare Part D for the prescription drug
benefit that Plaintiffs had been receiving under the 1993 Settlement Agreement. However, the February 2011 Order denied as
moot Plaintiffs' request for injunctive relief to prevent the Company from implementing the Part D Change, because the change
already had gone into effect. In February 2011, the Company filed a notice of appeal with the United States Court of Appeals
for the Sixth Circuit (the "Appellate Court") concerning the February 2011 Order.
On September 30, 2011, the Court issued an order directing the Company to reinstate the prescription drug benefit that was in
effect before the Company unilaterally substituted Medicare Part D for the prior prescription drug benefit (the "September 2011
Order"). The September 2011 Order also requires the Company to reimburse Plan 2 Retirees for any Medicare Part D premiums
they have paid since the Part D Change and the extra cost, if any, for the retirees' prescriptions under the Part D Change. On
October 14, 2011, the Company filed a notice of appeal with the Appellate Court concerning the September 2011 Order. The
Appellate Court consolidated the Company's appeal of the February 2011 Order and the September 2011 Order. On December
14, 2012, the Appellate Court denied the Company's appeal, affirming the February 2011 and September 2011 Orders.
FATMA Notice
International Indústria de Motores da América do Sul Ltda. ("IIAA"), formerly known as Maxion International Motores S/A
("Maxion"), now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, received a notice in July 2010 from the State of Santa Catarina
Environmental Protection Agency ("FATMA") in Brazil. The notice alleged that Maxion had sent wastes to a facility owned
and operated by a company known as Natureza and that soil and groundwater contamination had occurred at the Natureza
facility. The notice asserted liability against Maxion and assessed an initial penalty in the amount of R$2 million (the equivalent
of approximately US$1 million at October 31, 2012), which is not due and final until all administrative appeals are
exhausted. Maxion was one of numerous companies that received similar notices. IIAA filed an administrative defense in
August 2010 and has not yet received a decision following that appearance. IIAA disputes the allegations in the notice and
intends to vigorously defend itself.
Kruse vs. Ford
We have been made aware of the Kruse Technology Partnership ("Kruse") vs. Ford lawsuit (the "Kruse Case") filed against
Ford regarding a potential patent infringement of three patents in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California.
An amended complaint against Ford was filed by Kruse in August 2010. The amended complaint alleges that Ford has
infringed the patents by sale or use of engines, such as the Power Stroke diesel engines. Navistar formerly supplied Power
Stroke diesel engines to Ford, although today Ford manufactures its own Power Stroke engines. In the Ford/Navistar Settlement
Agreement of January 9, 2009, Navistar agreed to indemnify Ford for claims of infringement based upon Ford's manufacture,
sale, or use of the 6.0 and 6.4 liter Power Stroke engines sold by Navistar to Ford. Ford has not requested Navistar to defend
Ford at this time. The judge assigned to the Kruse Case has stayed the case pending resolution of a similar suit against Daimler
21
Chrysler, Detroit Diesel, Freightliner, Western Star, Volkswagen, Cummins, and Chrysler Group. In November 2011, Kruse
disclaimed all the claims in one of the patents (U.S. Patent 6,405,704), which effectively terminates the patent rights for this
patent. The U.S. Patent Office ended the first re-examinations on the two remaining patents (U.S. Patent 6,058,904 and U.S.
Patent 5,265,562), and ruled that these will be in force with all claims intact. The U.S. Patent Office agreed to commence a new
re-examination of U.S. Patent 6,058,904 in April 2012 and U.S. Patent 5,265,562 in May 2012 as a result of third-party
requests based upon substantial new questions of patentability. In July 2012, the U.S. Patent Office issued a Notice of Intent to
allow all the claims in the two remaining Kruse patents, hence ending the second round of re-examination. Both patents expired
on July 27, 2012, however Kruse could still sue for any infringement prior to that date.
Lis Franco de Toledo, et. al. vs. Syntex do Brasil and IIAA
In 1973, Syntex do Brasil Industria e Comercio Ltda. ("Syntex"), a predecessor of IIAA, our Brazilian engine manufacturing
subsidiary formerly known as MWM International Industria de Motores da America do Sul Ltda ("MWM"), filed a lawsuit in
Brazilian court against Dr. Lis Franco de Toledo and others (collectively, "Lis Franco"). Syntex claimed Lis Franco had
improperly terminated a contract which provided for the transfer from Lis Franco to Syntex of a patent for the production of a
certain vaccine. Lis Franco filed a counterclaim alleging that he was entitled to royalties under the contract. In 1975, the
Brazilian court ruled in favor of Lis Franco, a decision which was affirmed on appeal in 1976. In 1984, while the case was still
pending, Syntex’ owner, Syntex Comercio e Participacoes Ltds ("Syntex Parent") sold the stock of Syntex to MWM, and in
connection with that sale Syntex Parent agreed to indemnify and hold harmless MWM for any and all liabilities of Syntex,
including its prior pharmaceutical operations (which had been previously spun-off to another subsidiary wholly-owned by the
Syntex Parent) and any payments that might be payable under the Lis Franco lawsuit. In the mid to late 1990s, Syntex
Parent was merged with an entity known as Wyeth Industria Farmaceutica LTDA ("Wyeth").
In 1999, Lis Franco amended its pleadings to add MWM to the lawsuit as a defendant. In 2000, Wyeth acknowledged to the
Brazilian court its sole responsibility for amounts due in the Lis Franco lawsuit and MWM asked the court to be dismissed
from that action. The judge denied that request. MWM appealed and lost.
In his pleadings, Lis Franco alleged that the royalties payable to him were approximately R$42 million. MWM believed the
appropriate amount payable was approximately R$16 million. In December 2009, the court appointed expert responsible for the
preparation of the royalty calculation filed a report with the court indicating royalty damages of approximately R$70
million. MWM challenged the expert’s calculation. In August 2010, the court asked the parties to consider the appointment of a
new expert. MWM agreed with this request but Lis Franco objected and, in September 2010, the court accepted and ratified the
expert’s calculation as of May 2010 in the amount of R$74 million (the equivalent of approximately US$36 million at
October 31, 2012) and entered judgment against MWM.
In September 2010, MWM filed a motion for clarification of the decision which would suspend its enforcement. The Brazilian
court denied this motion and MWM appealed the matter to the Rio de Janeiro State Court of Appeals (the "Court of Appeals").
In January 2011, the Court of Appeals granted the appeal and issued an injunction suspending the lower Court’s decision and
judgment in favor of Lis Franco. In January 2011, MWM merged into IIAA and is now known as IIAA. An expert appointed by
the Court of Appeals submitted his calculation report on October 24, 2011, and determined the amount to be R$10.85 million
(the equivalent of approximately US$5 million at October 31, 2012). The parties submitted their comments to such report in
December 2011. The Court of Appeals is now reviewing the expert’s calculation criteria report and the parties' comments to
that report.
In parallel, in May 2010, MWM filed a lawsuit in Sao Paulo, Brazil, against Wyeth seeking recognition that Wyeth is liable for
any and all liabilities, costs, expenses, and payments related to the Lis Franco lawsuit. In September 2012, the Sao Paulo court
ruled in favor of MWM and ordered Wyeth to pay, directly to the Estate of Lis de Franco and others and jointly with MWM,
the amounts of the condemnation, to be determined at the end of the liquidation proceeding. The Sao Paulo court also ordered
Wyeth to reimburse MWM for all expenses, including court costs and attorney fees associated with the case. The parties were
notified of the decision in October 2012, and MWM filed a motion for clarification of certain issues in October 2012.
Deloitte & Touche LLP
In April 2011, the Company filed a complaint against Deloitte and Touche LLP ("Deloitte") in the Circuit Court of Cook
County, Illinois County Department, Law Division ("Illinois Circuit Court") for fraud, fraudulent concealment, negligent
misrepresentation, violation of the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act, professional malpractice,
negligence, breach of contract, and breach of fiduciary duty. The matters giving rise to the allegations contained in the
complaint arise from Deloitte's service as the Company's independent auditor prior to April 2006 and the Company is seeking
monetary damages against Deloitte. In May 2011, Deloitte filed a Notice of Removal to remove the case to the United States
District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. In June 2011, the Company filed in the federal court a motion to remand the
case to Illinois Circuit Court. In July 2011, Deloitte filed a motion to dismiss the Company's complaint and in August 2011, the
Company responded to Deloitte's motion to dismiss. In October 2011, the court remanded the case back to the Illinois Circuit
22
Court and denied the motion to dismiss as moot. The Company amended its complaint in January 2012 in Illinois Circuit Court.
In February 2012, Deloitte moved to dismiss the Company's amended complaint. In July 2012, the Illinois Circuit Court
granted in part and denied in part Deloitte's motion to dismiss. Specifically, the Illinois Circuit Court dismissed without
prejudice with leave to replead the Company's counts for fraud, fraudulent concealment and breach of fiduciary duty and
otherwise denied Deloitte's motion with respect to the remaining causes of action. In December 2012, the parties reached a
settlement.
Westbrook vs. Navistar. et. al.
In April 2011, a False Claims Act qui tam complaint against Navistar, Inc., Navistar Defense, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company ("Navistar Defense"), and unrelated third parties was unsealed by the United States District Court for the
Northern District of Texas. The complaint was initially filed under seal in August 2010 by a qui tam relator on behalf of the
federal government. The complaint alleged violations of the False Claims Act based on allegations that parts of vehicles
delivered by Navistar Defense were not painted according to the contract specification, and improper activities in dealing with
one of the vendors who painted certain of the vehicle parts. The complaint seeks monetary damages and civil penalties on
behalf of the federal government, as well as costs and expenses. The U.S. government notified the Court that it has declined to
intervene at this time. Navistar, Inc. was served with the complaint in July 2011, and a scheduling order and a revised
scheduling order have been entered by the Court. In December 2011, the Court granted a motion by Navistar, Inc. and Navistar
Defense, along with the other named defendants to judicially estop the relator and his affiliated company from participating in
any recovery from the action, and to substitute his bankruptcy trustee as the only person with standing to pursue the relator's
claims. In March 2012, the Court granted motions by Navistar, Inc., Navistar Defense, and the other named defendants to
dismiss the complaint. The dismissal was without prejudice and the relator filed an amended complaint in April 2012. In May
2012, Navistar, Inc., Navistar Defense, and the other named defendants filed motions to dismiss the amended complaint. In
addition, the parties jointly filed a motion to stay discovery pending resolution of the motions to dismiss. In July 2012, the
court granted all of the defendants' motions to dismiss with prejudice, dismissing all of the claims except the claim against
Navistar Defense for retaliation and the claim against Navistar, Inc. for retaliation, which was dismissed without
prejudice. Plaintiff was granted leave to file an amended complaint including only the retaliation claims against Navistar
Defense and Navistar, Inc. The relator did not file a retaliation claim against Navistar, Inc. and voluntarily dismissed without
prejudice the retaliation claim against Navistar Defense. The relator also filed a motion for reconsideration of the dismissal of
the False Claims Act claims against Navistar Defense which the court denied. The court issued final judgment dismissing the
matter on July 30, 2012. The relator filed a notice of appeal to the Fifth Circuit in August 2012 as to the Final Judgment and the
Motion for Reconsideration as to Navistar Defense only. Westbrook filed a separate notice of appeal to the Fifth Circuit in
August 2012 as to several district court orders, including the December 2011 order holding the Trustee, not Westbrook, to be
the proper party in the case.
Asbestos and Environmental Matters
Along with other vehicle manufacturers, we have been subject to an increase in the number of asbestos-related claims in recent
years. In general, these claims relate to illnesses alleged to have resulted from asbestos exposure from component parts found
in older vehicles, although some cases relate to the alleged presence of asbestos in our facilities. In these claims we are not the
sole defendant, and the claims name as defendants numerous manufacturers and suppliers of a wide variety of products
allegedly containing asbestos. We have strongly disputed these claims, and it has been our policy to defend against them
vigorously. It is possible that the number of these claims will continue to grow, and that the costs for resolving asbestos related
claims could become more significant in the future. We have also been named a potentially responsible party ("PRP"), in
conjunction with other parties, in a number of cases arising under an environmental protection law, the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, popularly known as the "Superfund" law. These cases involve sites
that allegedly received wastes from current or former Company locations.
EPA Notice of Violation
In February 2012, Navistar, Inc. received a Notice of Violation ("NOV") from the EPA. The NOV pertains to approximately
7,600 diesel engines which, according to EPA, were produced by Navistar, Inc. in 2010 and, therefore, should have met EPA's
2010 emissions standards. Navistar, Inc. previously provided information to EPA showing that the engines were in fact
produced in 2009. The NOV contains EPA's conclusion that Navistar, Inc.'s alleged production of the engines in 2010 violated
the Federal Clean Air Act. The NOV states that EPA reserves the right to file an administrative complaint or to refer this matter
to the U.S. Department of Justice with a recommendation that a civil complaint be filed in federal district court.

Number of Holders
As of November 30, 2012, there were approximately 10,133 holders of record of our common stock.
Dividend Policy
Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends when and as declared by the Board of Directors out of funds
legally available therefor, provided that, so long as any shares of our preferred stock and preference stock are outstanding, no
dividends (other than dividends payable in common stock) or other distributions (including purchases) may be made with
respect to the common stock unless full cumulative dividends, if any, on our shares of preferred stock and preference stock
have been paid. Under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, dividends may only be paid out of surplus or out
of net profits for the year in which the dividend is declared or the preceding year, and no dividend may be paid on common
stock at any time during which the capital of outstanding preferred stock or preference stock exceeds our net assets.
Payments of cash dividends and the repurchase of common stock are currently limited due to restrictions contained in our debt
agreements. We have not paid dividends on our common stock since 1980 and do not expect to pay cash dividends on our
common stock in the foreseeable future.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
Our directors who are not employees receive an annual retainer, which is payable at their election either in shares of our
common stock or in cash allocated in quarterly installments. A director may also elect to defer any portion of such
compensation until a later date. Each such election is made prior to December 31st for the next calendar year. For calendar year
2012, the Board of Directors has mandated that at least $20,000 of the annual retainer be paid in the form of shares of our
common stock, and for calendar year 2011, the Board of Directors mandated that at least $15,000 of the annual retainer be paid
in the form of shares of our common stock. During the fourth quarter ended October 31, 2012, three directors elected to defer
all or a portion of their annual retainer fees in shares, and were credited with an aggregate of 3,086 deferred stock units (each
such stock unit corresponding to one share of common stock) at a price of $21.39. These stock units were issued to our
directors without registration under the Securities Act, in reliance on Section 4(2) based on the directors' financial
sophistication and knowledge of the Company.
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
There were no purchases of equity securities by us or affiliates during the three months ended October 31, 2012.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation ("MD&A") is designed to provide
information that is supplemental to, and should be read together with, our consolidated financial statements and the
accompanying notes. Information in MD&A is intended to assist the reader in obtaining an understanding of (i) our
consolidated financial statements, (ii) the changes in certain key items within those financial statements from year-to-year,
(iii) the primary factors that contributed to those changes, (iv) any changes in known trends or uncertainties that we are aware
of and that may have a material effect on our future performance, and (v) how certain accounting principles affect our
consolidated financial statements. In addition, MD&A provides information about our business segments and how the results of
those segments impact our results of operations and financial condition as a whole.
Executive Summary
We experienced significant strategic and operational challenges in 2012, but have taken actions that we believe will reverse our
course and are evaluating additional opportunities to enhance value. As a result of these challenges, we announced changes to
our engine strategy, signed supply agreements with Cummins, and reinforced our cash position during this transition period.
During this period of transition, we are renewing our focus on strengthening our North American core businesses, evaluating
non-core businesses and engineering programs through a disciplined use of ROIC. We are making steady progress in our six
guiding principles of quality, cost, sense of urgency, great products, customer satisfaction, and people. The entire organization is
aligned to address three major priorities in 2013: significantly improving the quality of our products, meeting every one of our
critical truck and engine launch dates, and delivering on our operating plan while maximizing our cash flows.
Recent 2012 Strategic Actions
Over the past months, we have made a number of significant strides accomplishing our turnaround efforts, which include:
•
•
•
•
•
•
In July, we announced our next generation clean engine solution, which combines EGR and SCR.
In August, we secured additional financing through our new senior secured, $1 billion term loan credit facility.
In August, we took actions to control spending across the Company with targeted reductions of certain costs which
included the VSP and involuntary reductions in force.
In October, we announced the planned closure of our facility in Garland, Texas.
In October, we signed agreements with Cummins for the supply of their urea-based after-treatment system, as well as the
supply of their ISX15 engine.
In October, we received net proceeds of $192 million from our equity offering with an additional $14 million received in
November.
2012 Results Summary
For the year ended October 31, 2012, we experienced significant deterioration in our operating results, as compared to the
previous year, and these results were significantly worse than our forecasts. A significant contributor to the decline in
performance has been our previous strategy to meet EPA 2010 emissions standards, specifically our inability to meet the
emissions standards and the impacts of pursuing that path, as well as a decline in our military-related business operations.
Our consolidated net sales and revenues decreased by 7%, as compared to the prior year period, reflecting lower net sales from
all segments. Truck segment sales decreased 7%, primarily due to decreases in military sales, as well as lower sales to our
"traditional" markets. Engine segment sales decreased 10%, primarily due to lower sales volumes in South America, as well as
lower intercompany net sales in the U.S. and Canada. Parts segment sales decreased 2%, primarily due to lower military sales,
partially offset by improvements in our commercial markets in the U.S. and Canada, as well as increases within our global parts
business.
For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Company incurred a loss attributable to Navistar International Corporation of $3.0
billion, or $43.56 per diluted share, compared to income attributable to Navistar International Corporation of $1.7 billion, or
$22.64 per diluted share in 2011. Included in the 2012 and 2011 results are the impacts of changes to our deferred tax valuation
allowances. In 2012, we recognized income tax expense of $2.0 billion for the increase in our deferred tax valuation allowances
on our U.S. deferred tax assets, partially offset by income tax benefit of $189 million, which resulted from release of a
significant portion of our income tax valuation allowance on our Canadian deferred tax assets. In 2011, we recognized income
tax benefits of $1.5 billion from the release of a portion of our income tax valuation allowances of our U.S. deferred tax assets.
Additionally, the significant pre-tax items affecting our results include:
•
$404 million of adjustment for pre-existing warranties in 2012,
27
•
•
•
$73 million of restructuring charges for voluntary separation and reduction in force in 2012,
$66 million and $64 million for costs relating to our engineering integration actions in 2012 and 2011, respectively. For
2012, the charges included restructuring charges of $23 million and other related costs of $43 million. For 2011, the
charges included restructuring charges of $29 million and other related costs of $35 million.
$45 million and $127 million of charges related to the restructuring of our North American manufacturing operations in
2012 and 2011, respectively. For 2012, the charges included impairment charges related to certain intangible assets of $38
million and restructuring charges of $7 million. For 2011, the charges included restructuring charges of $58 million and
impairment charges of $64 million related to certain intangible assets and property and equipment, and the other related
costs of $5 million.
•
$34 million of charges for NCPs for certain engine sales.
Operating results in 2012, as compared to 2011, were reflective of lower military sales coupled with a shift in order mix, higher
warranty expenses, declines in "traditional" and worldwide truck volumes, higher commodity costs, unfavorable impacts of the
fluctuations of foreign exchange rates, partially offset by a favorable reduction of charges related to the restructuring of our
North American manufacturing operations. We also incurred higher expenses for postretirement benefits due to an unfavorable
ruling in our retiree health care litigation matter in the fourth quarter of 2011. Additionally, our results were significantly
impacted by the increase in the valuation allowance on our U.S. deferred tax assets in 2012, compared to the release of a
portion of these valuation allowances in 2011.
Business Outlook and Key Trends
We are analyzing our options to improve the efficiency and performance of our operations. Our focus will be on improving our
core North American Truck, Engine, and Parts businesses. We are also continuing to evaluate opportunities to restructure our
business and rationalize our manufacturing operations in an effort to optimize our cost structure which could include, among
other actions, additional rationalization of our manufacturing operations and/or divesting of non-core businesses. These actions
could result in additional restructuring and other related charges, including but not limited to, impairments, employee
termination costs, and charges for pension and other postretirement contractual benefits and pension curtailments, that could be
significant.
Certain trends have affected our results of operations for 2012 as compared to 2011 and 2010. In addition, we expect that the
following key trends will impact our future results of operations:
• Engine Strategy and Emissions Standards Compliance—We believe that our new strategy of integrating EGR and SCR,
coupled with the Cummins 15L offering, provides a technology path to meet 2010 EPA emissions standards, GHG
standards, and positions the Company for future success. We expect this engine strategy will help to address distractions
and uncertainty around our engine certification and the continuation of product offerings, which have had a detrimental
impact on the Company's performance, including a deterioration of market share. However, in the near term, we expect to
be further impacted by the transition of our engine strategy. The Company has incurred significant research and
development and tooling costs to design and produce our engine product lines in an effort to meet the EPA and CARB on-
highway HDD emissions standards, including OBD requirements. These emissions standards have and will continue to
result in significant increases in costs of our products. In addition, our revised strategy creates the potential for gaps in our
product offerings that could further impact the Company's results.
•
"Traditional" Truck Market—The "traditional" truck markets in which we compete are typically cyclical in nature and are
strongly influenced by macro-economic factors such as industrial production, demand for durable goods, capital spending,
oil prices and consumer confidence. We anticipate the "traditional" truck industry retail deliveries will be in the range of
290,000 units to 320,000 units for 2013. We expect benefits from further improvements in our "traditional" volumes as the
industry continues to recover from the historic lows experienced in 2009 and 2010. According to ACT Research, the
average age of truck fleets still remains high. We anticipate higher sales in 2013, resulting from truck replacement as our
customers refresh aging fleets. We also expect demand for trucks to increase as freight volumes and rates continue to
improve as the U.S. economy recovers.
• Worldwide Engine Unit Sales—Our worldwide engine unit sales are impacted primarily by North America truck demand
and sales in South America, our largest engine market outside of the North American market. Our MaxxForce engines are
expected to begin to incorporate urea-based after-treatment systems from Cummins in 2013. We have made investments in
engineering and product development for our proprietary engines and expect to continue to make significant investments in
our after-treatment solution, meeting OBD requirements, and obtaining GHG compliance, as well as for other product
innovations, cost-reductions, and fuel-usage efficiencies. These markets are impacted by consumer demand for products
that use our engines as well as macro-economic factors such as oil prices and construction activity.
28
Our worldwide engine unit sales were 199,900 units in 2012, 243,600 units in 2011, and 240,400 units in 2010. Our 2012
worldwide engine unit sales were primarily to our Truck segment in North America and to external customers in South
America. We also made certain OEM sales for commercial, consumer, and specialty vehicle products in North America,
which have not historically been significant to our Engine segment. Additionally within our South America operations, a
portion of our volumes in 2012 transitioned to lower margin contract manufacturing for certain customers. We expect to
offset these lower margins with increased global engine and parts sales, as well as lower warranty and engineering and
product development costs from our South American operations. We also expect our South American operations to
continue to be a key contributor to the segment results and expect improvements from our OEM sales for commercial,
consumer, and specialty vehicle products.
• Military Sales—In 2012, we continued to leverage existing products and plants to meet the demands of the U.S. military
and our North Atlantic Treaty Organization ("NATO") allies. Our U.S. military sales were $1.0 billion in 2012, compared
to $1.8 billion in both 2011 and 2010. The decrease in military sales reflects a shift in our 2012 sales to primarily upgrading
Mine Resistant Ambush Protected ("MRAP") vehicles with our rolling chassis solution and retrofit kits. In comparison, our
sales in 2011 and 2010 consisted of delivering, servicing, and maintaining MRAP vehicles, lower-cost militarized
commercial trucks, and sales of parts and services. Additionally in 2012, we received orders for the upgrade of MRAP
vehicles with our rolling chassis solution, as well as orders for MaxxPro survivability upgrade kits, which are all expected
to be completed by the end of 2013. Based on the current environment, in 2013 we expect our military business to generate
revenues of approximately $750 million.
• Warranty Costs—Emissions regulations in the U.S. and Canada have resulted in rapid product development cycles, driving
significant changes from previous engine models. In 2010, we introduced changes to our engine line-up in response to
2010 emissions regulations. Component complexity and other related costs associated with meeting emissions standards
have contributed to higher repair costs that exceeded those that we have historically experienced. Historically, warranty
claims experience for launch-year engines has been higher compared to the prior model-year engines; however, over time
we have been able to refine both the design and manufacturing process to reduce both the volume and the severity of
warranty claims. While we continue to improve the design and manufacturing of our engines to reduce the volume and
severity of warranty claims, we have continued to experience higher warranty costs than expected which has contributed to
significantly higher warranty charges for current and pre-existing warranties, including charges for extended service
contracts, in 2012. We recognized adjustments to pre-existing warranties of $404 million in the year ended October 31,
2012, compared to adjustments of $79 million and $51 million in the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
The increase in the adjustments to pre-existing warranties in 2012 relates to the unanticipated increase in warranty expense,
primarily for certain 2010 emission standard engines. We may continue to experience an increase in warranty costs as
compared to prior periods that could result in additional charges for adjustments to pre-existing warranties. In addition, as
we identify opportunities to improve the design and manufacturing of our engines we may incur additional charges for
product recalls and field campaigns to address identified issues. These charges may have an adverse effect on our financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows. In 2013, to meet new emissions regulations, including but not limited to
OBD requirements, the Company will launch several products that will incorporate additional changes and added
component complexity. These changes may result in additional future warranty expenses that may have an adverse effect
on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. For more information, see Note 1, Summary of Significant
Accounting Policies, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
• Operating Cost Saving Initiatives—We continue to evaluate opportunities to restructure our business and rationalize our
manufacturing operations in an effort to optimize our cost structure. We recently implemented a number of cost saving
initiatives, including the consolidation of our Truck and Engine engineering operations, the relocation of our world
headquarters to Lisle, Illinois, continued reductions in discretionary spending, and employee headcount reductions. As a
result of these actions and the elimination of certain executive-level positions and consultants, we estimate these actions
will result in approximately $175 million of annualized savings, beginning in 2013. In addition, we continue to evaluate
additional options to improve the efficiency and performance of our operations. For example, we are evaluating
opportunities to restructure our business in an effort to optimize our cost structure, which could include, among other
actions, rationalization of certain manufacturing operations and/or divesting non-core businesses.
• Global Economy—The global economy, and in particular the economies in the U.S. and Brazil markets, are continuing to
recover, and the related financial markets have stabilized. However, the impact of the economic recession and financial
turmoil on the global markets pose a continued risk as customers may postpone spending, in response to tighter credit,
negative financial news, and/or declines in income or asset values. Lower demand for our customers' products or services
could also have a material negative effect on the demand for our products. In addition, there could be exposure related to
the financial viability of certain key third-party suppliers, some of which are our sole source for particular components.
Lower expectations of growth and profitability have resulted in impairments of long-lived assets in the past and we could
continue to experience pressure on the carrying values of our assets if conditions persist for an extended period of time.
29
•
Impact of Government Regulation—As a manufacturer of trucks and engines, we continue to face significant governmental
regulation of our products, especially in the areas of environmental and safety matters. We are also subject to various noise
standards imposed by federal, state, and local regulations. Government regulation related to climate change is under
consideration at the U.S. federal and state levels. Because our products use fossil fuels, they may be impacted indirectly
due to regulation, such as a cap and trade program, affecting the cost of fuels. In 2010, the OBD requirements were
commenced for the initial family of truck engines and those products have also been certified, and the phase-in for the
remaining engine families occurs in January 2013. In 2011, the EPA and NHTSA issued final rules setting GHG emissions
and fuel economy standards for medium and heavy-duty engines and vehicles, which begin to apply in 2014 and are fully
implemented in model year 2017. The Company plans to comply with these rules through the use of our existing
technologies combined with certain third-party components, as well as the implementation of emerging technologies as
they become available.
• Raw Material Commodity Costs—Commodity costs, which include steel, precious metals, resins, and petroleum products,
increased by $84 million in 2012, increased by $112 million in 2011, and decreased by $49 million in 2010, as compared to
the corresponding prior years. We continue to look for opportunities to mitigate the effects of market-based commodity
cost increases through a combination of design changes, material substitution, alternate supplier resourcing, global
sourcing efforts, pricing performance, and hedging activities. The objective of this strategy is to ensure cost stability and
competitiveness in an often volatile global marketplace. Generally, the impact of commodity costs fluctuation in the global
market will be reflected in our financial results on a time lag, and to a greater or lesser degree than incurred by our supply
base depending on many factors including the terms of supplier contracts, special pricing arrangements, and any
commodity hedging strategies employed.
• Facilities Optimization—We continue to evaluate options to improve the efficiency and performance of our operations. Our
focus is on improving our core North American Truck, Engine and Parts business. We are evaluating opportunities to
restructure our business and rationalize our manufacturing operations in an effort to optimize our cost structure, which
could include, among other actions, additional rationalization of our manufacturing operations and/or divesting of non-core
businesses. We have consolidated our executive management, certain business operations, and product development into
our world headquarters site in Lisle, Illinois, which we completed in 2012, and we are consolidating our testing and
validation activities into our Melrose Park, Illinois, facility, which we expect to complete in 2013. In October 2012, we
announced our intention to close our Garland, Texas truck manufacturing plant. In July 2011, we announced our intention
to close our Chatham, Ontario truck manufacturing plant, our Union City, Indiana chassis plant, and our Monaco motor
coach plant in Coburg, Oregon, which was subsequently sold in 2012. In early 2010, we announced and implemented our
plan to consolidate bus production within our Tulsa IC Bus facility. We continue to develop plans for efficient transitions
related to these activities and evaluate other options to continue the optimization of our operations. We expect to realize
future benefits from the plant optimization actions taken during 2012.
• Core Business Evaluation—The Company is currently evaluating its portfolio of assets to validate their strategic and
financial fit. To allow us to increase our focus on our North America core businesses, we are evaluating product lines,
businesses, and engineering programs that fall outside of our core businesses. We are using ROIC, combined with an
assessment of the strategic fit to our core businesses, to identify areas that are not performing to our expectations. For those
areas, we are evaluating whether to fix, divest, or close and expect to realize incremental benefits from these actions in the
near future.
•
Joint Ventures and Other Investments—We have made substantial investments in joint ventures and other businesses that
complement our core operations and provide growth opportunities in expansionary markets. In 2012, we announced that
we received approval from the Chinese government to proceed with our engine manufacturing plans through our joint
venture with JAC and expect this to have a significant impact on our global strategy in the future. In 2012, we also initiated
certain strategic initiatives, including an agreement with Indiana Phoenix to sell front-discharge concrete mixers through
our Continental Mixer subsidiary, and the acquisition of certain assets from E-Z Pack related to the manufacture of refuse
truck bodies. In India, we have two joint ventures with Mahindra, MNAL and MNEPL, and the Company is in discussions
with Mahindra regarding the potential purchase by Mahindra of our interests in those two joint ventures.
• GE Capital Alliance—In March 2010, we entered into a three-year Operating Agreement (with one-year automatic
extensions and subject to early termination provisions) with GE Capital Corporation and GE Capital Commercial, Inc.
(collectively "GE") (the "GE Operating Agreement"). Under the terms of the GE Operating Agreement, GE became our
preferred source of retail customer financing for equipment offered by us and our dealers in the U.S. We provide GE a loss
sharing arrangement for certain credit losses, and under limited circumstances NFC retains the rights to originate retail
customer financing. Loan originations under the GE Operating Agreement began in the third quarter of 2010, which will
continue to reduce NFC originations and portfolio balances in the future. We expect retail finance receivables and retail
finance revenues to continue to decline as our retail portfolio is paid down.

Truck segment net sales decreased $669 million, or 7%, primarily due to decreases in military sales and Class 6 and 7 medium
trucks in our "traditional" markets, partially offset by increases in sales and the impact of product mix for our Class 8 heavy
and severe service trucks in our "traditional" markets and the impact of the consolidation and growth of our NC2 Global, LLC
("NC2") operations.
Engine segment net sales decreased by $397 million, or 10%, primarily due to lower sales volumes in South America,
reflecting a pre-buy of pre-Euro V emissions standard engines in the prior year and unfavorable movements in foreign currency
exchange rates. Also contributing to the decrease were lower intercompany net sales in the U.S. and Canada.
Parts segment net sales decreased by $36 million, or 2%, primarily due to lower military sales, partially offset by improvements
in our commercial markets in the U.S. and Canada, as well as increases within our global parts business.
Financial Services segment net revenues decreased by $32 million, or 11%, primarily driven by the continued decline in the
average retail finance receivable balance. The decline in the average retail finance receivable balance is reflective of a decrease
in U.S. retail loan originations, which are now being funded primarily under the GE Operating Agreement.
31
Costs of products sold
Cost of products sold increased by $408 million, compared to the prior year period, reflecting increases in the Engine segment,
partially offset by decreases in the Parts segment that were largely reflective of their overall decrease in net sales. The increase
in cost of products sold in the Engine segment was largely due to higher current and pre-existing warranty costs, partially offset
by lower volumes. Component complexity and other related costs associated with meeting emissions standards has contributed
to higher repair costs that exceeded those that we have historically experienced. Further contributing to the higher warranty
expense and the associated increase in warranty costs per unit were shifts in product mix to higher cost engines. We recognized
charges for adjustments to pre-existing warranties of $404 million in 2012, compared to $79 million the prior year. The
increase in the adjustments relates to the unanticipated increases in warranty spend, primarily for certain 2010 Engines. While
we continue to improve the design and manufacturing of our engines to reduce the volume and severity of warranty claims, we
have continued to experience higher warranty spend than expected. Included in 2012 warranty expense, was $130 million of
charges related to field campaigns we initiated to address issues in products sold, as compared to $23 million in the prior year.
The charges were primarily recognized as adjustments to pre-existing warranties. For more information, see Note 1, Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Cost of products sold from the Truck segment was relatively flat as compared to the prior year, reflecting a decrease in military
volumes and a shift in military product mix, as well as benefits from manufacturing cost efficiencies largely due to our flexible
manufacturing strategy and other actions. Offsetting these factors were increases in our “traditional” markets, which reflects
shifts in product mix, and cost increases for materials largely due to higher commodity costs, particularly steel and rubber, as
well as the impact of the consolidation of NC2 operations.
Restructuring charges
Restructuring charges were $108 million in 2012, compared to $92 million in 2011. The charges consisted of:

The restructuring charges in 2012 were primarily related to cost-reduction initiatives that include the Company's offering of the
VSP to the majority of our U.S.-based non-represented salaried employees and the impacts of an involuntary reduction in force
in the U.S. and Brazil, as well as integration costs, which include the vacancy of a lease relating to the relocation of our world
headquarters. The restructuring charges in 2011 were primarily related to the actions taken in 2011 at our Fort Wayne facility,
Springfield Assembly Plant, Chatham heavy truck plant, WCC plant in Union City, Indiana, and Monaco recreational vehicle
headquarters and motor coach manufacturing plant in Coburg, Oregon within our Truck segment. For more information on the
programs described above, see Note 2, Restructurings and Impairments, to the accompanying consolidated financial
statements.
Impairment of property and equipment and intangible assets
In 2012, we incurred asset impairment charges of $44 million, primarily relating to the Company's decision to discontinue
accepting orders for its WCC business and take certain actions to idle the business, which occurred in late 2012. These actions
resulted in charges of $28 million for the impairment of certain intangible assets related to WCC, recognized by the Truck
segment, and $10 million for the impairment of certain intangible assets related to the parts distribution operations associated
with the WCC business, recognized by the Parts segment.
In 2011, we recognized impairments of property and equipment and intangible assets of $64 million, primarily in our Truck
segment, relating to charges at our Chatham, Ontario plant and WCC subsidiary. The impairment charges reflect the impact of
the closure of the Chatham facility, and market deterioration and reduction in demand below previously anticipated levels for
our WCC subsidiary.
For more information on these impairments, see Note 2, Restructurings and Impairments, to the accompanying consolidated
financial statements.
32
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses increased by $10 million, compared to the prior year periods. This
increase in SG&A expenses reflects an increase in postretirement benefit expenses, as well as higher expenses related to the
consolidation of the truck and engine engineering operations and the relocation of our world headquarters. The increase in
postretirement benefit expenses was primarily due to reinstating the prescription drug benefit provided under the 1993
Settlement Agreement in accordance with a court ruling in September 2011. For more information, see Note 14, Commitments
and Contingencies, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease
in employee incentive compensation expense, reflecting the losses incurred in 2012, and savings from cost-reduction
initiatives.
The increase in SG&A expenses reflects higher expenses in the Truck segment, lower expenses in the Engine segment, and flat
expenses in the Parts segment. In addition to the factors described above, the increase in the Truck segment was primarily due
to higher provisions for receivables losses, higher advertising and promotional expenses, and the consolidation of the NC2
operations, which was partially offset by decreased Dealcor expenses due to the sale of certain dealerships. The decrease in the
Engine segment was primarily driven by lower administrative expenses relating to cost-reduction initiatives, particularly at our
South American operations.
In the fourth quarter of 2012, we offered the majority of our U.S.-based non-represented salaried employees the opportunity to
apply for a VSP. Along with the VSP, we used attrition and an involuntary reduction in force to eliminate additional positions in
order to meet our targeted reductions goal. In addition to these actions in the U.S., our Brazilian operations utilized an
involuntary reduction in force to eliminate positions. As a result of these actions and the elimination of certain executive-level
positions, we expect to realize year-over-year savings. For more information, see Note 2, Restructurings and Impairments, to
the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Engineering and product development costs
Engineering and product development costs increased by $7 million, compared to the prior year period, reflecting higher costs
in the Truck segment that were partially offset by lower costs in the Engine segment. The increase in the Truck segment was
primarily due to product development of our low-cab-over-engine vehicle, integration of the Cummins 15L engine and
Cummins SCR after-treatment systems into certain "traditional" truck models, the development of certain natural gas
applications, as well as the consolidation of the NC2 operations, partially offset by a reduction in expenses for the development
of military-related trucks. The decrease in the Engine segment was primarily due to costs recognized in 2011 related to the
launch of the Maxxforce 15L engine and lower expenses in 2012 for 0.2 NOx emissions technology due to our change in
strategy in the latter part of the year, partially offset by increased spending on projects to meet the OBD requirements.
Interest expense
Interest expense increased by $12 million compared to the prior year. The increase in interest expense was primarily the result
of the August 2012 borrowing of $1 billion under the Term Loan Credit Facility. For more information, see Note 9, Debt, to the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Other expense (income), net
Other expense (income), net, was an expense of $37 million in 2012, compared to income of $64 million in 2011. In 2012, the
Company, particularly the Truck segment, was unfavorably impacted by the fluctuations of foreign exchange rates, primarily
due to the strengthening of the U.S. Dollar against the Brazilian Real, as compared to being favorably impacted in the prior
year periods. Additionally, the Company recognized costs related to the early redemption of a portion of our 8.25% Senior
Notes, due 2021 (the "Senior Notes"), which includes charges of $8 million for the early redemption premium and write-off of
related discount and debt issuance costs. For more information, see Note 9, Debt, to the accompanying consolidated financial
statements. Also in 2011, other income, net included a $10 million benefit relating to the extinguishment of a financing liability
for equipment within our Engine segment.
Equity in loss of non-consolidated affiliates
Equity in loss of non-consolidated affiliates decreased by $42 million, primarily due to our acquisition of Caterpillar's
ownership interest in NC2 in September 2011. NC2 is now included in our consolidated results in the Truck segment. For more
information, see Note 8, Investments in Non-consolidated Affiliates, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
33
Income tax benefit (expense)
In 2012, we recognized income tax expense of $1.8 billion, compared to an income tax benefit of $1.5 billion in 2011. In 2012,
we recognized income tax expense of $2.0 billion for the increase in our deferred tax valuation allowances on our U.S. deferred
tax assets. This was partially offset by income tax benefit of $189 million, which resulted from the release of a significant
portion of our income tax valuation allowance on our Canadian deferred tax assets.
In 2011, we recognized an income tax benefit of $1.5 billion related to the release of a significant portion of our deferred tax
valuation allowance on our U.S. deferred tax assets, as well as a $42 million tax benefit related to the resolution of audits in
various jurisdictions. Prior to the release of a significant portion of our deferred tax valuation allowances, the amounts recorded
in income taxes were limited to current state income taxes, alternative minimum taxes net of refundable credits, and other
discrete items.
We had $1.1 billion of U.S. net operating losses and $200 million of general business credits as of October 31, 2012. We expect
our cash payments of U.S. taxes will be minimal for so long as we are able to offset our U.S. taxable income by these U.S. net
operating losses and tax credits. We maintain valuation allowances on our U.S. and certain foreign deferred tax assets because
it is more-likely-than-not those deferred tax assets will not be realized. It is reasonably possible within the next twelve months
that an additional valuation allowance may be required on certain foreign deferred tax assets. For additional information, see
Note 11, Income Taxes, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Net income attributable to non-controlling interests
Net income attributable to non-controlling interests is the result of our consolidation of subsidiaries of which we do not own
100%. Substantially all of our net income attributable to non-controlling interests in 2012 and 2011 relates to Ford's non-
controlling interest in our BDP subsidiary.
Segment Results of Operations for 2012 as Compared to 2011
We define segment profit (loss) as net income (loss) attributable to Navistar International Corporation excluding income tax
benefit (expense). For additional information about segment profit, see Note 15, Segment Reporting, to the accompanying
consolidated financial statements. The following sections analyze operating results as they relate to our four segments and do
not include intersegment eliminations:

N.M.
Truck segment net sales decreased $669 million, or 7%, primarily due to decreases in military sales and Class 6 and 7 medium
trucks in our "traditional" markets, partially offset by the impact of product mix that include increases in sales of our Class 8
heavy and severe service trucks in our "traditional" markets and the impact of the consolidation and growth of our NC2
operations. The decrease in military sales is reflective of our 2012 sales related to the upgrade of MRAP vehicles with our
rolling chassis solution and retrofit kits, compared to our 2011 sales that included significant orders for MRAP vehicles.
Chargeouts from our "traditional" market were down 4%, primarily due to a 19% decrease in our Class 6 and 7 medium trucks,
partially offset by a 5% increase in both of our Class 8 heavy trucks and School buses and a 2% increase in our Class 8 severe
service trucks.
Segment profit (loss)
The Truck segment incurred a loss of $320 million in 2012 compared to profit of $336 million in 2011. Truck segment results
included total charges of $100 million in 2012 and $173 million in 2011, for the integration of our engineering operations,
restructuring of our North American manufacturing operations, and the impact of our fourth quarter cost-reduction initiative.

For more information on the programs described above, see Note 2, Restructurings and Impairments, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Excluding the impact of these costs, the Truck segment profit decreased by $729 million in 2012. The decrease was primarily
due to the decrease in military sales, coupled with a shift in military product mix, higher commodity costs, increased warranty
costs that were primarily related to extended warranty contracts on certain 2010 Engines, and increases in SG&A and
Engineering and product development costs. Throughout 2012, we have experienced increases in the cost for commodities. We
anticipate increases in overall commodity costs in the foreseeable future, but we continue to explore opportunities to mitigate
our exposure to commodity cost volatility. Additionally, the impact of commodity hedging in 2012 was immaterial, compared
to recognizing a gain of $17 million in 2011. The Truck segment recognized significant charges for adjustments to pre-existing
warranties of $83 million in 2012, compared to charges of $25 million in the prior year. Included in 2012 warranty expense, the
Truck segment recognized net charges of $66 million for losses on extended warranty contracts for our 2010 emissions
standard MaxxForce Big-Bore engines. The net charges included $19 million related to contracts sold in the current year and
$47 million recognized as adjustments to pre-existing warranties. Partially offsetting these factors were the realization of
certain benefits from manufacturing cost efficiencies.
SG&A expenses increased due to higher provisions for receivables losses and higher advertising and promotional expenses.
Engineering and product development costs were higher primarily due to product development of our low-cab-over-engine
vehicle, integration of the Cummins 15L engine and Cummins SCR after-treatment systems into certain "traditional" truck
models, and the development of certain natural gas applications, partially offset by a reduction in expenses for the development
of military-related trucks.

Segment sales
Engine segment net sales decreased by $397 million, or 10%, primarily due to lower sales volumes in South America,
reflecting a pre-buy of pre-Euro V emissions standard engines in the prior year and unfavorable movements in foreign currency
exchange rates. Also contributing to the decrease were lower intercompany net sales in the U.S. and Canada and a decrease in
sales from our BDP operations of $38 million, largely due to reduced volumes.
Segment profit (loss)
The Engine segment incurred a loss of $562 million in 2012, predominantly due to increased warranty expense. Component
complexity and related costs associated with meeting the emissions standards has contributed to higher repair costs that have
exceeded those that we have historically experienced. Further contributing to the increase in warranty expense and the
associated warranty costs per unit has been shifts in product mix to higher-cost engines. The Engine segment recognized
significant charges for adjustments to pre-existing warranties of $321 million in 2012, compared to charges of $54 million in
the prior year. The increase in the adjustments to pre-existing warranties was primarily related to unanticipated increases in
warranty expense for certain 2010 Engines. While we continue to improve the design and manufacturing of our engines to
reduce the volume and severity of warranty claims, we have continued to experience higher warranty expenses than expected.
Included in 2012 warranty expense, was $107 million of charges related to field campaigns we initiated to address issues in
products sold, as compared to $10 million in the prior year. The charges were primarily recognized as adjustments to pre-
existing warranties.
Also impacting the Engine segment's comparative results were NCPs recognized in 2012, increases in restructuring and related
charges, and certain start up costs for certain engine components. In 2012, the Engine segment recognized $34 million of
35
charges for NCPs for certain 13L engine sales and restructuring and related charges of $21 million for cost-reduction actions.
For more information on restructuring and related cost-reduction actions, see Note 2, Restructurings and Impairments, to the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. The 2012 startup costs were related to the production of compacted graphite
iron cylinder blocks for our MaxxForce Big-Bore engines.
Partially offsetting these factors was lower SG&A expenses, reflecting impacts from cost-reduction initiatives, particularly at
our South American operations. Engineering costs were also lower, primarily due to costs recognized in 2011 related to the
launch of the Maxxforce 15L engine and lower expenses in 2012 for 0.2 NOx emissions technology due to our change in
strategy in the latter part of the year, partially offset by increased spending on projects to meet the OBD requirements and the
integration of the Cummins SCR after-treatment systems into certain "traditional" truck models. Additionally, the segment
recognized an increased benefit of $46 million from the allocation of intercompany "access fees" to the Parts segment, which
consists of certain engineering and product development costs, depreciation expense, and selling, general and administrative
expenses incurred by the Truck and Engine segments that are allocated based on a relative percentage of certain sales.

Segment sales
Parts segment net sales decreased by $36 million, or 2%, primarily due to lower military sales, partially offset by improvements
in our commercial markets in U.S. and Canada, as well as increases within our global parts business.
Segment profit
Parts segment profit decreased $47 million, largely driven by a $45 million increase in the allocation of intercompany "access
fees," which consists of certain engineering and product development costs, depreciation expense, and selling, general and
administrative expenses incurred by the Truck and Engine segments that are allocated based on a relative percentage of certain
sales.
Additionally, the segment incurred a charge of $10 million in the second quarter of 2012 for the impairment of certain
intangible assets of the parts distribution operations related to the WCC business. In 2012, the Parts segment recognized
restructuring and related charges of $7 million for cost-reduction actions. For more information, see Note 2, Restructurings and

Financial Services segment net revenues decreased by $32 million, or 11%, primarily driven by the continued decline in the
average retail finance receivable balances and a reduction of intercompany financing fees. The decline in the average retail
finance receivable balance is reflective of U.S. retail loan originations, which are now being funded primarily under the GE
Operating Agreement. During 2012, the average finance receivable balances were $2.4 billion, compared to $3.1 billion during
2011.
36
Segment profit
The Financial Services segment profit decreased $38 million, predominantly driven by the lower net interest margin due to the
decline in average retail finance receivables balances. Also contributing to the decrease in segment profit was higher SG&A
expenses, primarily due to an increase in depreciation expense related to higher average investment in equipment under
operating leases, and a higher net provision for loan losses.

Truck segment net sales increased $1.5 billion, primarily due to higher "traditional" and worldwide volumes, improved pricing
across all "traditional" classes, and increased ROW sales, predominantly due to strong sales volumes in South America.
Partially offsetting these increases were lower military revenues, decreased volumes of our School buses, and decreased used
truck sales.
Engine segment net sales increased $805 million, primarily due to increased intercompany sales driven by the strengthening of
the North America truck market and a shift in product mix to higher revenue units, particularly our MaxxForce 11L and 13L
Big-Bore engines. These increases were partially offset by the loss of the Ford business in North America in 2010.
Parts segment net sales increased $270 million, primarily due to increases in our U.S. and Canada commercial markets,
reflecting higher volumes and improved pricing to recover higher material and freight-related expenses, as well as
improvements within our global parts business.
Financial Services segment net revenues decreased $18 million compared to the prior year primarily driven by a decrease in the
average retail finance receivable balance, partially offset by improved wholesale note revenues on increased wholesale
balances. The decline in the average retail finance receivable balance was driven by decreased retail loan originations, which
are now funded under the GE Operating Agreement.
37
Costs of products sold
Cost of products sold increased by $1.5 billion compared to the prior year, which was consistent with our growth in sales and
revenues. This increase was across our Truck, Engine, and Parts segments. The increase in costs of products sold was primarily
due to higher costs of "traditional" units equipped with our proprietary 2010 Engines, a shift in product mix to higher cost Big-
Bore engines, and increased commodity costs, particularly steel and rubber. Partially offsetting these contributors to the
increase in cost of products sold were manufacturing cost efficiencies largely due to our flexible manufacturing strategy and
other actions.
Our warranty costs were higher, primarily due to increased volumes, as well as the exclusive use of our MaxxForce engines in
our "traditional" product offerings, as compared to previous outside sourcing for various engine models in which warranty costs
were included in the engine purchase price. In addition, we recognized increased adjustments to pre-existing warranties of $28
million primarily related to changes in our estimated warranty costs per unit on 2007 emissions standard engines and various
authorized field campaigns.
Restructuring charges
Restructuring charges in 2011 were $92 million, compared to a net reversal of $15 million in the prior year. The restructuring
charges in 2011 were primarily related to the actions taken in 2011 at our Fort Wayne facility, Springfield assembly plant,
Chatham heavy truck plant, WCC plant in Union City, Indiana, and Monaco recreational vehicle headquarters and motor coach
manufacturing plant in Coburg, Oregon, all within our Truck segment.
The restructuring benefit in 2010 was primarily comprised of a $16 million favorable settlement of a portion of contractual
obligations related to the Indianapolis Engine Plant (“IEP”) and Indianapolis Casting Corporation ("ICC") restructuring and
$10 million of reversals of our remaining restructuring reserves for ICC as a result of our decision to continue operations at
ICC. These amounts were recognized in our Engine segment. For more information, see Note 2, Restructurings and
Impairments, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Impairment of property and equipment and intangible assets
In 2011, we recognized impairments of property and equipment and intangible assets of $64 million, primarily in our Truck
segment, relating to charges at our Chatham, Ontario plant and WCC subsidiary. The impairment charges reflect the impact of
the closure of the Chatham facility, and market deterioration and reduction in demand below previously anticipated levels for
our WCC subsidiary. For additional information, see Note 2, Restructurings and Impairments, to the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
SG&A expenses were largely flat as compared to the prior year, reflecting increases in our Truck, Engine, and Parts segments,
partially offset by a decrease in the Financial Services segment. Compared to the prior year, SG&A expenses increased
primarily due to incremental selling and sales support expenses due to the higher commissions-related expenses, providing
service support for our proprietary engines, engineering integration costs, and other expenses related to the move of our world
headquarters.
Partially offsetting these increases in SG&A expenses were decreased postretirement benefits expense allocated to SG&A
expenses, a net reversal of the provision for doubtful accounts, and decreased Company-owned Dealcor expenses due to the
sale of certain Company-owned dealerships. Postretirement benefits expense decreased largely due to a lower interest cost
component, reflecting lower discount rates, and higher expected return on assets, primarily driven by higher values of plan
assets based upon the October 2010 measurement. For more information, see Note 10, Postretirement Benefits, to the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. The net reversal of the provision for doubtful accounts was attributable to
declines in retail portfolio balances and actual charge-offs. In addition, the stabilization of the used truck market has resulted in
increased demand and improved pricing for used equipment.
Engineering and product development costs
Engineering and product development costs, which are incurred by our Truck and Engine segments, increased by $68 million
as compared to the prior year. The increase was primarily due to our ongoing improvements to our EGR and other technologies
to meet emissions regulations at 0.2 NOx emissions levels in North America and Euro V emissions regulations in South
America, and new product programs within our Truck and Engine segments for the North American and global markets. Also
contributing to the increase in engineering and product development costs were engineering integration costs related to the
consolidation of our Truck and Engine segment engineering operations. Engineering and product development costs are
incurred by our Truck and Engine segments for product innovations, cost-reductions, and to enhance product and fuel-usage
efficiencies.
38
Interest expense
Interest expense for 2011 was largely flat as compared to the prior year. Changes in interest expense attributable to the lower
average debt balances were largely offset by slightly higher interest rates. For more information, see Note 9, Debt, and Note 13,
Financial Instruments and Commodity Contracts, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Other income, net
Other income, net was $64 million for 2011, compared to $44 million in 2010. In 2011, other income, net included a $10
million benefit relating to the settlement of financing arrangement of certain equipment within our Engine segment. In 2010,
other income, net was primarily comprised of reductions to reserves within our Truck and Engine segments for certain value
added taxes in Brazil that were reassessed and determined to be recoverable.
Equity in loss of non-consolidated affiliates
Equity in loss of non-consolidated affiliates were $71 million and $50 million in 2011 and 2010, respectively, and primarily
reflective of continued investment and start-up losses associated with certain joint ventures, primarily our joint ventures with
Mahindra and NC2 prior to our acquisition of Caterpillar's ownership interest of NC2 in September 2011. For more information,
see Note 8, Investments in Non-consolidated Affiliates, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Income tax benefit (expense)
In 2011, we realized an income tax benefit of $1.5 billion, primarily attributable to the release of a portion of our deferred tax
valuation allowances during the year. Excluding the release of deferred tax valuation allowances, our tax expense in 2011 was
$79 million, which included a $42 million tax benefit related to the resolution of audits in various jurisdictions. In 2010, our tax
expense was $23 million, which included a U.S. alternative minimum tax benefit of $29 million from the carryback of
alternative minimum taxable losses to prior years. Our 2010 income tax expense on U.S. and Canadian operations was limited
to current state income taxes, alternative minimum taxes net of refundable credits and other discrete items.
We had $360 million of U.S. net operating losses and $208 million of general business credits as of October 31, 2011. As of
October 31, 2011, we continued to maintain valuation allowances for certain foreign operations and for certain state deferred
tax assets because it is more likely than not those deferred tax assets will not be realized. For additional information, see Note
11, Income Taxes, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Net income attributable to non-controlling interests
Net income attributable to non-controlling interests is the result of our consolidation of subsidiaries in which we do not own
100%. Our net income attributable to non-controlling interests was $55 million and $44 million in 2011 and 2010, respectively,
and substantially relates to Ford's non-controlling interest in our BDP subsidiary.
Segment Results of Operations for 2011 as Compared to 2010
We define segment profit (loss) as net income (loss) attributable to Navistar International Corporation excluding income tax
expense. For additional information about segment profit (loss), see Note 15, Segment Reporting, to the accompanying
consolidated financial statements. The following sections analyze operating results as they relate to our four segments and do
not include intersegment eliminations:

Segment sales
Truck segment net sales increased by $1.5 billion, or 19%, largely due to a significant increase in our "traditional" and
worldwide volumes. These increases included a 46% increase in chargeouts within our Class 6 and 7 medium truck class and
19% within our Class 8 heavy truck class. Average sales prices of trucks across all our "traditional" classes also increased in
2011, primarily due to the use of our proprietary 2010 Engines. Partially offsetting these increases were lower military
39
revenues, decreased volumes of our School buses, and decreased used truck sales as we have reduced our inventory of used
trucks. The decrease in our military revenues was primarily driven by lower chargeouts, partially offset by increases in the
average sales price due to a shift in product mix. Our ROW sales increased predominantly due to strong sales volumes in South
America, reflecting a general economic recovery, as well as the strengthening of the global economy.
Segment profit
The Truck segment profit in 2011 decreased $88 million, and included $173 million of charges related to the restructuring of
our North American manufacturing operations and engineering integration costs. Restructuring of our North American
manufacturing operations primarily related to actions taken at our Chatham, Ontario heavy truck plant and our WCC
subsidiary, and included restructuring and related charges of $63 million. Additionally, the segment recognized $61 million of
impairment charges related to certain intangible assets and property and equipment, primarily related to these facilities. The
Truck segment incurred $49 million of engineering integration costs, related to the consolidation of our engineering operations
within our Truck and Engine segments. As of October 31, 2011, these actions were expected to contribute to our flexible
manufacturing strategy and increase operational efficiencies. For further information, see Note 2, Restructurings and
Impairments, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Also contributing to the segment profit decrease was the
2010 recognition of a benefit relating to a reduction in reserves for certain value added taxes in Brazil of $30 million.
Excluding the 2011 charges for restructuring, impairments and engineering integration costs, our Truck segment profit was
$509 million, which represented an increase of $85 million compared to 2010, and reflected higher "traditional" and worldwide
volumes. Also contributing to the remaining increase was higher margins from sales of used equipment, due to the stabilization
of the used truck market and increased demand for used trucks, as well as savings associated with manufacturing cost
efficiencies, reflecting our flexible manufacturing strategy, prior restructuring actions, and other manufacturing performance
improvements. Partially offsetting this increase were shifts in our "traditional" product mix, including lower School bus
volumes, and increased commodity costs. Our Truck segment also experienced higher engineering and product development
expenses of $53 million, primarily relating to new product programs, and increased SG&A costs largely due to higher
employee-related expenses related to increased sales volumes, as well as recent product launches and costs relating to
providing service support for our proprietary engines.

Segment sales
Engine segment net sales in the U.S. and Canada increased by $510 million, or 29%, primarily due to increased intercompany
sales due to the strengthening of the North America truck market and a shift in product mix to higher revenue units, including
our MaxxForce 11L and 13L Big-Bore engines. Our Engine segment also experienced improved sales of $22 million relating to
our BDP operations due to increased component sales. These increases were partially offset by decreased volumes in North
America related to the loss of the Ford business in 2010, which generated sales of $190 million in fiscal 2010. Engine segment
ROW net sales increased by $295 million, or 23%, primarily due to strong demand, the effects of currency exchange rates, and
improved pricing, particularly in South America.
Segment profit
The increase in Engine segment profit of $33 million was reflective of improved operational performance due to higher
volumes and product mix related to intercompany sales and the continued improvement in performance, as well as the effects
of currency exchange rates, particularly in South America. Partially offsetting the improved operational performance was the
loss of the North American Ford business in early 2010. SG&A expenses increased, primarily reflecting higher employee-
related expenses related to increased sales volumes, and higher pre-existing warranty expenses of $36 million, primarily related
to changes in our estimated warranty cost per unit on 2007 emissions standard engines. Engineering and product development
expenses increased, largely due to ongoing improvements to our EGR and other technologies to meet emissions regulations at
0.2 NOx emissions levels, efforts to meet Euro V emissions regulations in South America, and other product programs,
partially offset by reductions of engineering and product development costs related to 2007 emissions standard engines, as well
as the launch of our proprietary 2010 Engines. Also in 2011, Engine segment profit included a $10 million benefit relating to
the settlement of financing arrangement of certain equipment. In 2010, Engine segment profit included a $27 million benefit
relating to the reduction of previously recorded restructuring accruals.

Segment sales
Parts segment net sales increased by $270 million, or 14%, primarily driven by increases in our U.S. and Canada commercial
markets, as well as improvements within ROW sales. The increase in the U.S. and Canada commercial markets reflects higher
volumes and improved pricing to recover higher material and freight-related expenses. The increase in ROW was primarily
driven by higher volumes, reflecting improving economic conditions, particularly in Latin America.
Segment profit
The increase in Parts segment profit of $21 million was largely driven by increases in sales in our U.S. and Canada commercial
markets. Partially offsetting this increase was an overall shift in mix with increased sales of non-proprietary parts and a shift in
order mix within the military business, reflecting a switch from fielding to sustainment orders that have lower associated
margins. SG&A expenses increased, primarily driven by incremental costs relating to higher sales volumes and infrastructure
investments to support domestic and global growth.

_________________________
(A) Our Financial Services segment does not have Canadian operations or revenues.
Segment revenues
Our Financial Services segment net revenues decreased by $18 million, or 6%, primarily due to lower average retail finance
receivable balances partially offset by improved wholesale note revenues on increased wholesale balances. The decline in the
average retail finance receivable balance was driven by lower volumes of U.S. retail loan originations that, beginning in the
third quarter of 2010, are now funded under the GE Operating Agreement. This arrangement will continue to reduce NFC retail
originations and portfolio balances as prior loans are paid down and new U.S. loan originations are funded by GE. In 2011, the
average finance receivable balances were $3.1 billion, which were relatively flat as compared to the prior year. Aggregate
intercompany interest revenue and fees, which are charged primarily to the Truck and Parts segments, were $91 million in
2011, as compared to $90 million in 2010.
Segment profit
The Financial Services segment profit increase of $34 million, or 36%, was predominantly driven by lower SG&A costs. The
decrease in SG&A costs reflects lower provisions for loan losses of $31 million, primarily due to lower retail-related charge-
offs, due to improved stabilization of the industry, as well as declines in the retail portfolio balance. Selling, general and
administrative costs were also favorably impacted by decreased employee-related expenses largely driven by headcount
reductions relating to the GE Operating Agreement. Interest expense in 2011 was slightly down as compared to the prior year,
primarily due to lower average debt balances offset by slightly higher interest rates.

Truck segment net orders
We define orders as written commitments received from customers and dealers during the year to purchase trucks. Net orders
represent new orders received during the year less cancellations of orders made during the same year. Orders do not represent
guarantees of purchases by customers or dealers and are subject to cancellation. Orders may be either sold orders, which will be
built for specific customers, or stock orders, which will generally be built for dealer inventory for eventual sale to customers.
These orders may be placed at our assembly plants in the U.S. and Mexico for destinations anywhere in the world and include
trucks, buses, and military vehicles. Historically, we have had an increase in net orders for stock inventory from our dealers at
the end of the year due to a combination of demand and, from time to time, incentives to the dealers. Increases in stock orders
typically translate to higher chargeouts for our Truck segment. The following table summarizes our approximate net orders for
"traditional" units:

Truck segment backlogs
We define order backlogs ("backlogs") as orders yet to be built as of the end of the period. Our backlogs do not represent
guarantees of purchases by customers or dealers and are subject to cancellation. Although the backlog of unbuilt orders is one
of many indicators of market demand, other factors such as changes in production rates, internal and supplier available
capacity, new product introductions, and competitive pricing actions may affect point-in-time comparisons. Order backlogs
exclude units in inventory awaiting additional modifications or delivery to the end customer. The following table summarizes

Cash Requirements
We generate cash flow from the sale of trucks, diesel engines, and parts and from product financing provided to our dealers and
retail customers by our financial services operations. It is our opinion that, in the absence of significant extraordinary cash
demands, current and forecasted cash flow from our manufacturing operations, financial services operations, and financing
capacity will provide sufficient funds to meet operating requirements, capital expenditures, equity investments, and strategic
acquisitions. We also believe that collections on our outstanding receivables portfolios as well as funds available from various
funding sources will permit our financial services operations to meet the financing requirements of our dealers.
Our manufacturing operations are generally able to access sufficient sources of financing to support our business plan. In
August 2012, NIC and Navistar, Inc. signed a definitive credit agreement relating to a senior secured, term loan credit facility
in an aggregate principal amount of $1 billion (the "Term Loan Credit Facility") and borrowed an aggregate principal amount
of $1 billion under the Term Loan Credit Facility. In conjunction with the Term Loan Credit Facility transaction, we used a
portion of the proceeds from the Term Loan Credit Facility to repay all of the borrowings under Navistar, Inc.'s existing Asset-
Based Credit Facility and Navistar, Inc. entered into an Amended and Restated Asset-Based Credit Facility with a commitment
amount of up to $175 million. The Term Loan Credit Facility is intended to: (i) support the adoption of an after-treatment
solution to accelerate delivery of our next generation clean engine solution, (ii) support the market transition plan for Class 8
engine sales, and (iii) improve our financial flexibility. Interest expense going forward is expected to increase as a result of the
borrowing under the Term Loan Credit Facility. For additional information, see Note 9, Debt, to the accompanying consolidated
financial statements.
In October 2012, the Company completed a public offering of 10,666,666 shares of NIC common stock at a price of $18.75 per
share and received proceeds, net of underwriting discounts, commissions, and offering expenses, of $192 million. In connection
with the public offering, in November 2012, the underwriters elected to exercise a portion of the over-allotment option and
purchased an additional 763,534 shares of NIC common stock at a price of $18.75 per share. The Company received proceeds
from the exercise of the over-allotment, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, of $14 million.
Consolidated cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities was $1.6 billion at October 31, 2012, which includes $26 million
of cash and cash equivalents attributable to BDT and BDP, as well as an immaterial amount of cash and cash equivalents of
certain VIEs that is generally not available to satisfy our obligations. For additional information on the consolidation of BDT
and BDP, see Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
We generate operating cash flows through our U.S. and non-U.S. operations. We are not presently aware of any restrictions on
the repatriation of these funds, although the funds are considered permanently invested in these foreign subsidiaries. If these
funds were needed to fund our operations or satisfy obligations in the U.S., they could be repatriated and their repatriation into
the U.S. may cause us to incur additional U.S. income taxes and foreign withholding taxes. Any additional taxes could be
offset, in part or in whole, by foreign tax credits. The amount of such taxes and application of tax credits would be dependent
on the income tax laws and other circumstances at the time any of these amounts were repatriated.

Manufacturing Operations cash flows and Financial Services Operations cash flows are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP. This non-GAAP
financial information should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S.
GAAP. However, we believe that non-GAAP reporting, giving effect to the adjustments shown in the reconciliation above, provides meaningful information
and therefore we use it to supplement our U.S. GAAP reporting by identifying items that may not be related to the core manufacturing business. Management
often uses this information to assess and measure the performance and liquidity of our operating segments. Our Manufacturing Operations, for this purpose,
include our Truck segment, Engine segment, Parts segment, and Corporate items which includes certain eliminations. The reconciling differences between
these non-GAAP financial measures and our U.S. GAAP consolidated financial statements in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, are our
Financial Services Operations and adjustments required to eliminate certain intercompany transactions between Manufacturing Operations and Financial
Services Operations. Our Financial Services Operations cash flows are presented consistent with their treatment in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
and may not be consistent with how they would be treated on a stand-alone basis. We have chosen to provide this supplemental information to allow additional
analyses of operating results, to illustrate the respective cash flows giving effect to the non-GAAP adjustments shown in the above reconciliation and to
provide an additional measure of performance and liquidity.

Manufacturing Operations
Manufacturing Cash Flow from Operating Activities
Cash used in operating activities was $298 million for 2012, compared to $680 million of cash provided in 2011 and $409
million of cash provided in 2010. The cash used in operating activities in 2012, as compared to cash provided in 2011, was
primarily due to a net loss for the year compared to net income in 2011. This was partially offset by an improvement in the
change in net working capital in 2012 as compared to 2011. The net improvements within working capital were primarily
attributable to higher collections of accounts receivable and a decrease in inventory partially offset by a decrease in accounts
payable.
The increase in cash provided by operating activities in 2011 compared to 2010 was mainly due to higher cash earnings (net
income exclusive of non-cash expenses) and an increase in current liabilities, including a larger increase in accounts payable
from higher truck and engine volumes in 2011. This was partially offset by an increase in inventory in 2011 as compared to a
decrease in 2010 and a larger increase in accounts receivable in 2011, mainly due to the timing of military sales.
Cash paid during the year for interest, net of amounts capitalized, was $119 million, $115 million, and $76 million in 2012,
2011, and 2010, respectively. The increase of $39 million in 2011, as compared to 2010, resulted primarily from the timing of
interest payments on our Senior Notes and higher average debt balances.
In 2012, 2011, and 2010, the Company paid $51 million, $9 million, and $27 million, respectively, of income taxes,
representing payments resulting from taxable income of certain of our foreign subsidiaries. Additionally in 2011, the cash paid
was partially offset by domestic federal refunds received.
The Company paid $281 million, $193 million, and $219 million for 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, for costs associated
with postretirement benefits including pension and postretirement health care expenses for employees and surviving spouses
and dependents, the funding of trust assets, and other payments. This does not include any cash payments made from trust
assets to beneficiaries. The increase in cash paid by the Company for 2012 compared to 2011 was due to an increase in required
funding and an increase in payments of other post-employment benefits. The decrease in cash paid by the Company for 2011
compared to 2010 was due primarily to lower payments of other post-employment benefits.
Manufacturing Cash Flow from Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities was $110 million, $617 million, and $916 million in 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. The
net decrease in cash used in investing activities for 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily attributable to a net decrease in
investments in highly liquid marketable securities and lower capital expenditures. The net decrease in cash used in investing
activities for 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily attributable to a net decrease in investments in highly liquid marketable
securities and a net decrease in investments in non-consolidated affiliates, which was partially offset by an increase in capital
expenditures related to ongoing manufacturing operations and engineering integration.
Manufacturing Cash Flow from Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities was $977 million in 2012, compared to $106 million of cash used in 2011 and $110
million of cash used in 2010. The cash provided by financing activities in 2012 as compared to cash used in 2011 was mainly
attributable to the borrowing under the Term Loan Credit Facility and the proceeds from our public offering of common stock
in October 2012. The net decrease in cash used in financing activities for 2011 compared to 2010 was attributable to increased
third-party retail financing at our Company-owned dealers. In addition, we received proceeds of $91 million in 2011 from the
reimbursements of qualifying capital expenditures under certain tax-exempt bond financing, in which: (i) the Illinois Finance
Authority issued and sold $135 million aggregate principal amount of Recovery Zone Facility Revenue Bonds due October 15,
2040, and (ii) The County of Cook, Illinois issued and sold $90 million aggregate principal amount of Recovery Zone Facility
Revenue Bonds, also due October 15, 2040 (collectively, the "Tax Exempt Bonds") that we did not receive in the previous year.
These increases in cash were partially offset by an increase in principal payments under capital lease obligations. Additionally,
pursuant to separate resolutions passed by our Board of Directors in December 2010 and September 2011, the Company
repurchased an aggregate amount of $125 million of its common stock during 2011. For additional information, see Note 16,
Stockholders' Equity (Deficit), to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Financial Services Operations
Financial Services and Adjustments Cash Flow from Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities was $908 million, $200 million, and $698 million in 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.
The net increase in cash provided by operating activities for 2012 compared to 2011 was due to the higher margin by which the
retail notes and accounts receivable portfolio liquidations exceeded originations. This increase was partially offset by lower
income and reduced intercompany payables to our manufacturing operations.
46
The net decrease in cash provided by operating activities for 2011 compared to 2010 was due primarily to the smaller margin
by which liquidations of finance receivables exceeded originations, resulting from an increase in originations of dealer
financings and retail accounts. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in intercompany payables to our manufacturing
operations.
Cash paid during the year for interest, net of amounts capitalized, was $76 million, $93 million, and $95 million in 2012, 2011,
and 2010, respectively. The decrease for 2012 compared to 2011 is a result of lower average debt balances as funding
requirements have declined, and lower average interest rates.
Financial Services and Adjustments Cash Flow from Investing Activities
Cash provided by investing activities was $108 million in 2012, compared to cash used of $206 million in 2011, and cash
provided of $482 million in 2010. Changes in restricted cash levels required under our secured borrowings were the primary
sources and uses of cash from investing activities in 2012, 2011, and 2010. In 2012, the reduction in restricted cash resulted
from the maturity and repayment of $250 million of investor notes in January 2012, net of principal accumulation, as well as
the lower cash collateral requirements within the wholesale note trust, resulting from lower borrowing levels.
Changes in cash collateral required under our secured borrowings were the primary uses and sources of cash from investing
activities in 2011 and 2010. The investment in cash collateral in the 2011 period was the result of the over-collateralization of
the retail securitization transaction completed in April 2011 and the accumulation of cash in anticipation of the maturity of $250
million of investor notes in January 2012.
Financial Services and Adjustments Cash Flow from Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities was $1.0 billion in 2012, compared with cash provided of $6 million in 2011 and cash used of
$1.2 billion in 2010. Cash used in financing activities represents periodic payments on our funding facilities in excess of new
funding requirements. In 2012, the overall funding requirements declined as retail loan originations have been funded under the
GE Operating Agreement since 2010. The decline in 2012 also reflects reduced funding requirements for wholesale notes and
accounts receivable. The slight increase in overall funding requirements in 2011 was the result of an increase in funding
requirements for wholesale notes and accounts receivable, which offset the decline in funding requirements for retail loan
originations.
Cash used in financing activities represents periodic payments on our funding facilities in excess of new funding requirements.
Funding requirements declined sharply during 2010 as retail loan originations began funding through the GE Operating
Agreement. Funding requirements declined less in 2011 as an increase in originations of dealer financings and retail accounts
substantially offset the decline in funding requirements relating to retail loan originations.
Debt
See Note 9, Debt, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for a description of our credit facilities and long-term
debt obligations.
Funding of Financial Services
The Financial Services segment has traditionally relied upon sales of finance receivables, short and long-term bank borrowings,
medium and long-term debt, and commercial paper in Mexico to fund its provision of financing to our dealers and retail
customers. As of October 31, 2012, our funding consisted of asset-backed securitization debt of $994 million, bank borrowings
and revolving credit facilities of $763 million, commercial paper of $31 million, and borrowings of $78 million secured by
operating and finance leases.
We use a number of Special Purpose Entities ("SPEs") to securitize and sell receivables. Navistar Financial Securities
Corporation ("NFSC") finances wholesale notes, Navistar Financial Retail Receivables Corporation ("NFRRC") and Navistar
Financial Asset Sales Corporation ("NFASC") finance retail notes and finance leases, International Truck Leasing Corporation
("ITLC") finances operating leases and some finance leases, and Truck Retail Accounts Corporation's ("TRAC") finances retail
accounts.
During 2012, NFRRC issued secured notes totaling $873 million. In 2011, NFRRC issued secured notes totaling $120 million.
Our Mexican financial services operations include Navistar Financial, S.A. de C.V., Sociedad Financiera de Objeto Multiple,
Entidad No Regulada ("NFM"), and Navistar Comercial S.A. de C.V., which provide vehicle financing and insurance to our
dealers and retail customers in Mexico.

As of October 31, 2012, the aggregate amount available to fund finance receivables under the various facilities was
$1.1 billion.
In November 2011, NFC completed the sale of $224 million of two-year investor notes within the wholesale note trust funding
facility. In January 2012, NFC paid off investor notes of $250 million originally issued in February 2010. In October 2012,
NFC paid off investor notes of $350 million originally issued in November 2009.
Subsequent to the adoption of new accounting guidance on accounting for transfers of financial assets, transfers of finance
receivables from our Financial Services segment to the TRAC funding facility completed prior to November 1, 2010 retained
their sale accounting treatment while transfers of finance receivables subsequent to November 1, 2010 no longer receive sale
accounting treatment. There were no remaining outstanding retained interests as of October 31, 2012 and 2011.
In August 2012, our Variable Funding Note ("VFN") facility within the wholesale note trust funding facility was renewed with
a maturity of August 2013, and increased from $500 million to $750 million.
TRAC, our consolidated SPE, utilizes a $125 million funding facility that provides for the funding of eligible retail accounts
receivable.
In December 2011, the bank credit facility was refinanced with a five-year $840 million facility consisting of a $340 million
term loan and a $500 million revolving line of credit, including a sub-revolver of up to $200 million for NIC's Mexican finance
subsidiaries. The new facility is subject to customary operational and financial covenants. Quarterly principal payments on the
term portion will be $4 million for the first eight quarters, $9 million for the next 11 quarters, with a final payment at maturity.
The bank credit facility in place at October 31, 2011, is scheduled to mature in December 2012.
We are obligated under certain agreements with public and private lenders of NFC to maintain the subsidiary's income before
interest expense and income taxes at not less than 125% of its total interest expense. Under these agreements, if NFC's
consolidated income before interest expense and income taxes is less than 125% of its interest expense, NIC or Navistar, Inc.
must make income maintenance payments to NFC to achieve the required ratio. No such payments were required for the years
ended October 31, 2012 and 2011.
Derivative Instruments
The Company uses derivative financial instruments as part of our overall interest rate, foreign currency, and commodity risk
management strategies to reduce our interest rate exposure, to potentially increase the return on invested funds, to reduce
exchange rate risk for transactional exposures denominated in currencies other than the functional currency, and to minimize
commodity price volatility. The fair values of these derivatives are recorded as assets or liabilities on a gross basis in our
Consolidated Balance Sheets. For more information on derivatives and related market risks, see Item 7A, Quantitative and
Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk, and Note 13, Financial Instruments and Commodity Contracts, to the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Capital Resources
We expend capital to support our operating and strategic plans. Such expenditures include investments to meet regulatory and
emissions requirements, maintain capital assets, develop new products or improve existing products, and to enhance capacity or
productivity. Many of the associated projects have long lead-times and require commitments in advance of actual spending.
Business units provide their estimates of costs of capital projects, expected returns, and benefits to senior management. Those
projects are evaluated from the perspective of expected return and strategic importance, with a goal to maintain annual capital
expenditures in the $150 million to $250 million range, exclusive of capital expenditures for equipment leased to others.
48
Additionally, over the next year, our planned capital expenditures include the refurbishment and enhancement of our facility in
Melrose Park, Illinois, which the majority of the capital expenditures for this project are being financed through tax exempt
bonds. See Note 9, Debt, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
Generally, our pension plans are funded by contributions made by us. Our policy is to fund the pension plans in accordance
with applicable U.S. and Canadian government regulations and to make additional contributions from time to time. At
October 31, 2012, we have met all legal funding requirements. We contributed $157 million and $134 million to our pension
plans in 2012 and 2011, respectively.
In 2010, the Preservation of Access to Care for Medicare Beneficiaries and Pension Relief Act of 2010 was signed into law,
which provides, among other things, the ability to reduce and defer required pension contributions that otherwise would have
been required under the Pension Protection Act of 2006 ("PPA"). In July 2012, the MAP-21 Act was signed into law, impacting
the minimum funding requirements for pension plans, but does not otherwise impact our accounting for pension benefits. As a
result of the MAP-21 Act, we lowered our funding expectations. In 2013, we expect to contribute $166 million to meet the
minimum required contributions for all plans. We currently expect that from 2014 through 2016, the Company will be required
to contribute at least $200 million per year to the plans, depending on asset performance and discount rates.
Other postretirement benefit obligations, such as retiree medical, are primarily funded in accordance with the 1993 Settlement
Agreement between us, our employees, retirees, and collective bargaining organizations, which eliminated certain benefits
provided prior to that date and provided for cost sharing between us and participants in the form of premiums, co-payments,
and deductibles. Our contributions totaled $19 million and $2 million in 2012 and 2011, respectively. We expect to contribute
$2 million to our other post-employment benefit plans during 2013.
As part of the 1993 Settlement Agreement, a Base Program Trust was established in June 1993 to provide a vehicle for funding
the health care liability through our contributions and retiree premiums. A separate independent Retiree Supplemental Benefit
Program was also established, which included our contribution of Class B Common Stock, originally valued at $513 million, to
potentially reduce retiree premiums, co-payments, and deductibles and provide additional benefits in subsequent periods. In
addition to the Base Program Trust, we are contingently obligated to make profit sharing contributions to the Retiree
Supplemental Benefit Trust to potentially improve upon the basic benefits provided through the Base Program Trust. These
profit sharing contributions are determined by means of a calculation as established through the 1993 Settlement Agreement.
There were no profit sharing contributions to the Retiree Supplemental Benefit Trust during the three years ended October 31,
2012.
The funded status of our plans is derived by subtracting the actuarially-determined present value of the projected benefit
obligations from the fair value of plan assets at year end.
The under-funded status of our pension plans on a GAAP basis increased by $302 million during 2012 primarily due to a
decrease in the discount rate used to determine the present value of the projected benefit obligations. Our actual return on assets
during 2012 was approximately 8.1% for the U.S. Pension plans. The weighted average discount rate used to measure the
postretirement benefit obligation ("PBO") was 3.2% at October 31, 2012, compared to 4.2% at October 31, 2011.
In February 2012, the Plans entered into a three-year put spread collar hedge covering a majority of the Plan's assets. The hedge
is expected to provide protection against certain equity losses while allowing participation in equity gains up to a limit per
annum over the three-year term of the hedge. In addition to the asset hedge, in February 2012, the Plans entered into a three-
year zero cost swaption collar. The hedge is designed to protect plan liabilities against lower interest rates, while allowing
participation in the positive benefits that would result if interest rates rise up to a predefined level over the life of the hedge.
The net impact of the derivatives hedging strategies provided a gain of $4 million on the equity options and a gain of $19
million on the swaptions.
The under-funded status of our health and life insurance benefits decreased by $108 million primarily due to lower than
expected claims experience, partially offset by a decrease in the discount rate.
We continue to seek opportunities to control our pension and other postretirement benefits expenses.
For more information, see Note 10, Postretirement Benefits, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
49
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We enter into various arrangements not recognized in our Consolidated Balance Sheets that have or could have an effect on our
financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources. The principal off-balance sheet
arrangements that we enter into are guarantees and sales of receivables. The following discussions address each of these items:
Guarantees
We occasionally provide guarantees that could obligate us to make future payments if the primary entity fails to perform under
its contractual obligations. These include residual value guarantees, stand-by letters of credit and surety bonds, credit and
purchase commitments and indemnifications. We have recognized liabilities for some of these guarantees in our Consolidated
Balance Sheets as they meet recognition and measurement provisions. In addition to the liabilities that have been recognized,
we are contingently liable for other potential losses under various guarantees that are not recognized in our Consolidated
Balance Sheets. We do not believe claims that may be made under such guarantees would have a material effect on our
financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. For more information, see Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies,
to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Sales of Receivables
Our financial services operations typically sell, for legal purposes, our finance receivables to third parties while continuing to
service the receivables thereafter. In these securitization transactions, we transfer receivables to a bankruptcy remote SPE. The
SPE then transfers the receivables to a legally isolated entity that is typically a trust or a conduit, which then issues asset-
backed securities to investors. Effective November 1, 2010, none of our securitization arrangements qualified for sales
accounting treatment. As a result, the transferred receivables and the associated secured borrowings are included in our
Consolidated Balance Sheets and no gain or loss is recorded for these transactions.
Effective July 31, 2010, our Financial Services segment amended the wholesale trust agreement with the Navistar Financial
Dealer Note Master Trust ("Master Trust"). The amendment disqualified the Master Trust as a qualifying special purpose entity
(“QSPE”) and therefore required the Master Trust to be evaluated for consolidation as a VIE. As we are the primary beneficiary
of the Master Trust, the Master Trust's assets and liabilities are consolidated into the assets and liabilities of the Company. As a
result of the amendment, we recognized $337 million of receivables at fair value, net of intercompany eliminations and retained
interests previously carried on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. Previously, transfers of wholesale notes to the Master Trust
were accounted for as sales and accordingly were not carried on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. There were no remaining
outstanding retained interests as of October 31, 2012 and 2011.
Prior to the amendment of the Master Trust and the adoption of new accounting guidance on accounting for transfers of
financial assets, for accounting purposes, our transfers of wholesale notes and retail accounts receivables were treated as sales;
our transfers of other receivables were treated as secured borrowings. We recorded sales by removing receivables from the
Consolidated Balance Sheets and recording gains and losses in Finance revenues.
We use another SPE, TRAC, which utilizes a $125 million conduit funding arrangement, which provides for funding of eligible
accounts receivable. Subsequent to the adoption of new accounting guidance on accounting for transfers of financial assets,
transfers of finance receivables from our Financial Services segment to the TRAC funding facility completed prior to
November 1, 2010 retained their sale accounting treatment while transfers of finance receivables subsequent to November 1,
2010 no longer receive sale accounting treatment. There were no remaining outstanding retained interests as of October 31,
2012 and 2011. The TRAC funding facility is secured by $103 million of retail accounts and $43 million of cash equivalents as
of October 31, 2012, and $174 million of retail accounts and $33 million of cash equivalents as of October 31, 2011. The
TRAC funding facility had $1 million and $92 million of outstanding borrowings as of October 31, 2012 and 2011,
respectively. In total, proceeds from the sales of retail notes and wholesale notes that were accounted for as sales and
accordingly not carried on the Consolidated Balance Sheets amounted to $3.5 billion in 2010.

______________________
(A) Amounts represent estimated contractual interest payments on outstanding debt. Rates in effect as of October 31, 2012 are used for variable rate debt. For
more information, see Note 9, Debt, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
(B) We lease many of our facilities as well as other property and equipment under financing arrangements and capital leases in the normal course of business
including $24 million of interest obligations. For more information, see Note 6, Property and Equipment, Net, to the accompanying consolidated financial
statements.
(C) Lease obligations for facility closures are included in operating leases. Future operating lease obligations are not recognized in our Consolidated Balance
Sheet. For more information, see Note 6, Property and Equipment, Net, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
(D) Purchase obligations include various commitments in the ordinary course of business that would include the purchase of goods or services and they are
not recognized in our Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Due to the uncertainty with respect to the timing of cash payments associated with the settlement of audits with taxing
authorities and because of existing net operating loss carry forwards, the preceding table excludes uncertain tax positions of
$39 million. We do not expect to make significant payments of these liabilities within the next year. For additional information,
see Note 11, Income Taxes, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
In addition to the above contractual obligations, we are also required to fund our pension plans in accordance with the
requirements of the PPA. As such, we expect to contribute $166 million in 2013 to meet the minimum required contributions
for all plans. We currently expect that from 2014 through 2016, the Company will be required to contribute at least $200
million to the plans per year depending on asset performance and discount rates in the next several years. For additional
information, see Note 10, Postretirement Benefits, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Other Information
Income Taxes
We file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return for NIC and its eligible domestic subsidiaries. Our non-U.S. subsidiaries
file income tax returns in their respective local jurisdictions. We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between
the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax benefit carry
forwards. Deferred tax liabilities and assets at the end of each period are determined using enacted tax rates.
The total deferred tax asset valuation allowances increased by $2.3 billion in 2012 from $344 million to $2.7 billion. A
valuation allowance is required to be established or maintained when, based on currently available information, it is more likely
than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The guidance on accounting for income taxes provides
that important factors in determining whether a deferred tax asset will be realized are whether there has been sufficient taxable
income in recent years and whether sufficient taxable income is expected in future years in order to utilize the deferred tax
asset.
We believe that our evaluation of deferred tax assets and the need for a valuation allowance against such assets involve critical
accounting estimates because they are subject to, among other things, estimates of future taxable income in the U.S. and in non-
U.S. tax jurisdictions. These estimates are susceptible to change and dependent upon events that may or may not occur. Our
assessment of the need for a valuation allowance is material to the assets reported on our Consolidated Balance Sheets and
changes in the valuation allowance may be material to our results of operations. We intend to continue to assess our valuation
allowance in accordance with the guidance on accounting for income taxes.
We may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be
sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the
financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent
likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
51
We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as part of Income tax benefit (expense). Total interest and
penalties related to our uncertain tax positions resulted in an income tax benefit of $11 million and an expense of $2 million for
the years ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
As of October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, the net amount of liability for uncertain tax positions was $49 million and $82
million, respectively. If these unrecognized tax benefits are recognized, all but $6 million would impact our effective tax rate.
However, to the extent we continue to maintain a full valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets, the effect may be
in the form of an increase in the deferred tax asset related to our net operating loss carry forward, which would be offset by a
full valuation allowance. While it is probable that the liability for unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease during the
next twelve months, we do not expect any such change would have a material effect on our financial condition, results of
operations, or cash flows.
Environmental Matters
We have been named a PRP, in conjunction with other parties, in a number of cases arising under an environmental protection
law, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, popularly known as the "Superfund" law.
These cases involve sites that allegedly received wastes from current or former Company locations. Based on information
available to us which, in most cases, consists of data related to quantities and characteristics of material generated at current or
former Company locations, material allegedly shipped by us to these disposal sites, as well as cost estimates from PRPs and/or
federal or state regulatory agencies for the cleanup of these sites, a reasonable estimate is calculated of our share, if any, of the
probable costs and accruals are recorded in our consolidated financial statements. These accruals are generally recognized no
later than completion of the remedial feasibility study and are not discounted to their present value. We review all accruals on a
regular basis and believe that, based on these calculations, our share of the potential additional costs for the cleanup of each site
will not have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Three sites formerly owned by us; (i) Solar Turbines in San Diego, California, (ii) the Canton Plant in Canton, Illinois, and
(iii) Wisconsin Steel in Chicago, Illinois; were identified as having soil and groundwater contamination. Two sites in Sao
Paulo, Brazil, where we are currently operating, were identified as having soil and groundwater contamination. While
investigations and cleanup activities continue at these and other sites, we believe that we have adequate accruals to cover costs
to complete the cleanup of all sites.
Impact of Environmental Regulation
Government regulation related to climate change is under consideration at the U.S. federal and state levels. Because our
products use fossil fuels, they may be impacted indirectly due to regulation, such as a cap and trade program, affecting the cost
of fuels. On May 21, 2010, President Obama directed the EPA and the Department of Transportation to adopt rules by July 30,
2011 setting greenhouse gas emission and fuel economy standards for medium and heavy-duty engines and vehicles beginning
with model year 2014. The EPA and NHTSA issued proposed rules on November 30, 2010. We were active participants in the
discussions surrounding the development of regulations and filed comments with the EPA on the proposed rules on January 31,
2011. The final rules, which were issued on September 15, 2011, begin to apply in 2014 and are fully implemented in model
year 2017. The agencies' stated goals for these rules were to increase the use of currently existing technologies. The Company
plans to comply with these rules through use of existing technologies and implementation of emerging technologies as they
become available. Several of the Company's vehicles have been certified early for the 2013 model year with the remaining
vehicles and all engines required to be certified in 2014. In addition to the U.S., Canada and Mexico are also considering the
adoption of fuel economy and/or greenhouse gas regulations. On April 14, 2012, Canada issued for comment proposed
greenhouse gas emissions regulations (the "Canadian Proposal"), which are similar to the U.S. regulations. The Company is
evaluating the Canadian Proposal and expects to comment as necessary. We expect that heavy duty fuel economy rules will be
under consideration in other global jurisdictions in the future. These standards will impact development and production costs
for vehicles and engines. There will also be administrative costs arising from the implementation of the rules.
Our facilities may be subject to regulation related to climate change and climate change itself may also have some impact on
the Company's operations. However, these impacts are currently uncertain and the Company cannot predict the nature and
scope of those impacts.
Securitization Transactions
We finance receivables using a process commonly known as securitization, whereby asset-backed securities are sold via public
offering or private placement. In a typical securitization transaction, we transfer a pool of finance receivables to a bankruptcy
remote SPE. The SPE then transfers the receivables to a legally isolated entity, generally a trust or a conduit, in exchange for
securities of the trust which are then retained or sold into the public market or privately placed. These securities are issued by
the trust and are secured by future collections on the receivables sold to the trust.
52
When we securitize receivables, we may have retained interests in the receivables sold (transferred). The retained interests may
include senior and subordinated securities, undivided interests in receivables and over-collateralizations, restricted cash held for
the benefit of the trust, and interest-only strips. Our retained interests are the first to absorb any credit losses on the transferred
receivables because we have the most subordinated interests in the trust, including subordinated securities, the right to receive
excess spread (interest-only strip), and any residual or remaining interests of the trust after all asset-backed securities are repaid
in full. Our exposure to credit losses on the transferred receivables is limited to our retained interests. The SPE's assets are
available to satisfy the creditors' claims against the assets prior to such assets becoming available for the SPE's own uses or the
uses of our affiliated companies. Since the transfer constitutes a legal sale, we are under no obligation to repurchase any
transferred receivable that becomes delinquent in payment or otherwise is in default. We are not responsible for credit losses on
transferred receivables other than through our ownership of the lowest tranches in the securitization structures. We do not
guarantee any securities issued by trusts.
We, as seller and the servicer of the finance receivables, are obligated to provide certain representations and warranties
regarding the receivables. Should any of the receivables fail to meet these representations and warranties, we, as servicer, are
required to repurchase the receivables.
Effective November 1, 2010, none of our securitization arrangements qualify for sale accounting treatment under the guidance
on accounting for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishment of liabilities. As a result, such sold receivables
and associated secured borrowings are included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and no gain or loss is recognized for these
transactions.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In connection with the preparation of our
consolidated financial statements, we use estimates and make judgments and assumptions about future events that affect the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and the related disclosures. Our assumptions, estimates, and
judgments are based on historical experience, current trends, and other factors we believe are relevant at the time we prepare
our consolidated financial statements.
Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the accompanying
consolidated financial statements and should be reviewed in connection with the following discussion. We believe that the
following policies are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported results as they require us to
make difficult, subjective, and complex judgments. In determining whether an estimate is critical, we consider if:
•
•
the nature of the estimate or assumption is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account
for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change, or
the impact of the estimate or assumption on financial condition or operating performance is material.
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
We provide pension and other postretirement benefits to a substantial portion of our employees, former employees, and their
beneficiaries. The assets, liabilities, and expenses we recognize and disclosures we make about plan actuarial and financial
information are dependent on the assumptions used in calculating such amounts. The primary assumptions include factors such
as discount rates, health care cost trend rates, inflation, expected return on plan assets, retirement rates, mortality rates, rate of
compensation increases, and other factors including management's plans regarding plant rationalization activities. Changes to
our business environment could result in changes to the assumptions, the effects of which could be material.
•
•
•
•
Plant rationalization activities impact the determination of whether a plan curtailment or settlement has occurred. Key
considerations include, but are not limited to, expected future service credit, the remaining years of recall rights of the
workforce, and the extent to which minimum service requirements (in the case of healthcare benefits) have been met.
The discount rates are obtained by matching the anticipated future benefit payments for the plans to the Citigroup yield
curve to establish a weighted average discount rate for each plan.
Health care cost trend rates are developed based upon historical retiree cost trend data, short term health care outlook, and
industry benchmarks and surveys. The inflation assumptions used are based upon both our specific trends and nationally
expected trends.
The expected return on plan assets is derived from historical plan returns, expected long-term performance of asset
classes, asset allocations, input from an external pension investment advisor, and risks and other factors adjusted for our
specific investment strategy. The focus is on long-term trends and provides for the consideration of recent plan
performance.
•
Retirement rates are based upon actual and projected plan experience.
53
•
•
Mortality rates are developed from actual and projected plan experience.
The rate of compensation increase reflects our long-term actual experience and our projected future increases including
contractually agreed upon wage rate increases for represented employees.
The sensitivities stated below are based upon changing one assumption at a time, but often economic factors impact multiple
assumptions simultaneously.

As modeled above, net periodic postretirement benefits expense is not highly sensitive to changes in discount rates in the
current interest rate environment due to the relatively short duration of the closed plans. For the large US pension plans, a 1%
decrease in the discount rate results in a decrease in interest expense, which exceeds the offsetting increase in the amortization
of losses.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The allowance for doubtful accounts for finance receivables is established through a charge to Selling, general and
administrative expenses. The allowance is an estimate of the amount required to absorb losses on the existing portfolio of
finance receivables that may become uncollectible. We have two portfolio segments of finance receivables based on the type of
financing inherent to each portfolio. The retail portfolio segment represents loans or leases to end-users for the purchase or
lease of vehicles. The wholesale portfolio segment represents loans to dealers to finance their inventory. As the initial
measurement attributes and the monitoring and assessment of credit risk or the performance of the receivables are consistent
within each of our receivable portfolios, the Company determined that each portfolio consists of one class of receivable.
Finance receivables are charged off to the Allowance for doubtful accounts when amounts due from the customers are
determined to be uncollectible. The estimate of the required allowance for both the retail portfolio segment and the wholesale
portfolio segment is based upon three factors: (i) a historical component based upon a weighted average of actual loss
experience from the most recent three years, (ii) a qualitative component based upon current economic and portfolio quality
trends, and (iii) a specific reserve component. The qualitative component is the result of analysis of asset quality trend statistics
from the most recent four quarters. In addition, we also analyze specific economic indicators such as tonnage, fuel prices, and
gross domestic product for additional insight into the overall state of the economy and its potential impact on our portfolio. To
the extent that our judgments about these risk factors and conditions are not accurate, an adjustment to our allowance for losses
may materially impact our results of operations or financial condition. If we were to apply a hypothetical increase and decrease
of ten basis points to the historical loss rate used in calculating the allowance for losses, the required allowance, as of
October 31, 2012, would increase from $27 million to $29 million or decrease to $25 million.
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values
of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets are also recorded with respect to net
operating losses and other tax attribute carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
in effect for the years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are
established when, based on currently available information, it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset
will not be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the income of the
period that includes the enactment date.
The ultimate recovery of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the amount and timing of future taxable income and other
factors such as the taxing jurisdiction in which the asset is to be recovered. A high degree of judgment is required to determine
if, and the extent to which, valuation allowances should be recorded against deferred tax assets. We have provided valuation
allowances at October 31, 2012 and 2011 aggregating $2.7 billion and $344 million, respectively, against such assets based on
our assessment of past operating results, estimates of future taxable income, and the feasibility of tax planning strategies. Of
these amounts, $61 million relate to net operating losses for which subsequently recognized tax benefits will be allocated to
54
Additional paid-in capital. Although we believe that our approach to estimates and judgments as described herein is reasonable,
actual results could differ and we may be exposed to increases or decreases in income taxes that could be material.
We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return only if it is more
likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the
position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit
that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. We recognize interest and penalties
related to uncertain tax positions as part of Income tax benefit (expense).
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We test long-lived assets or asset groups (other than goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives as discussed below) for
recoverability when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be
recoverable. Estimates of undiscounted future cash flows used to test the recoverability of a long-lived asset or asset group
include only the future cash flows that are directly associated with and that are expected to arise as a direct result of the use and
eventual disposition of the asset or asset group. If the asset or asset group is determined to not be recoverable, an impairment
loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the long-lived asset or asset group exceeds its fair value.
Our impairment loss calculations require us to apply judgments in estimating future cash flows and asset fair values. This
judgment includes developing cash flow projections and, at times, assessing probability weightings to certain business
scenarios. Other long-lived assets could become impaired in the future or require additional charges as a result of declines in
profitability due to changes in volume, market pricing, cost, manner in which an asset is used, expectation of sale or disposal of
an asset, physical condition of an asset, laws and regulations, or the business environment. Significant adverse changes to our
business environment and future cash flows could cause us to record additional impairment charges in future periods, which
could be material.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquired business over the amounts assigned to the net assets. Goodwill is not
amortized but is tested for impairment at a reporting unit level on an annual basis or more frequently, if circumstances change
or an event occurs that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.
Qualitative factors may be assessed to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is
less than its carrying amount. If an election is made not to perform the qualitative assessment or the qualitative assessment
indicates that the carrying amount is more likely than not higher than the fair value, goodwill is tested for impairment based on
a two-step test. The first step compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair
value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired, thus the second
step of the impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of
the goodwill impairment test shall be performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step compares
the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of reporting
unit goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that
excess.
Significant judgment is applied when goodwill is assessed for impairment. This judgment includes developing cash flow
projections, selecting appropriate discount rates, identifying relevant market comparables, incorporating general economic and
market conditions, and selecting an appropriate control premium. The income approach is based on discounted cash flows
which are derived from internal forecasts and economic expectations for each respective reporting unit. In 2012, we did not
recognize any material goodwill impairments, and the fair values of each of our reporting units with goodwill exceeded its
respective carrying amount by more than 5%.
We have a goodwill balance of $280 million as of October 31, 2012. The fair value of one reporting unit with a goodwill
balance of $160 million as of October 31, 2012, exceeded its carrying amount by 6% in 2012. It is reasonably possible within
the next twelve months; we could recognize goodwill impairment charges for this reporting unit if we have declines in
profitability due to changes in volume, market pricing, cost, or the business environment. Significant adverse changes to our
business environment and future cash flows could cause us to record impairment charges in future periods, which could be
material.
Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
An intangible asset determined to have an indefinite useful life is not amortized until its useful life is determined to no longer
be indefinite. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are evaluated each reporting period to determine whether events and
circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually,
or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The impairment test consists
55
of a comparison of the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of an
indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.
Significant judgment is applied when evaluating if an intangible asset has a finite useful life. In addition, for indefinite-lived
intangible assets, significant judgment is applied in testing for impairment. This judgment includes developing cash flow
projections, selecting appropriate discount rates, identifying relevant market comparables, and incorporating general economic
and market conditions. We could recognize impairment charges in the future as a result of declines in the fair values of our
indefinite-lived intangible assets, which could be material.
Contingency Accruals
Product liability lawsuits and claims
We are subject to product liability lawsuits and claims in the normal course of business. We record product liability accruals for
the self-insured portion of any pending or threatened product liability actions.
We obtain a third-party actuarial analysis to assist with the determination of the expected ultimate losses for claims and
consequently the related reserve on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The actual settlement values of outstanding claims in the
aggregate may differ from these estimates due to many circumstances including but not limited to the discovery and evolution
of information related to individual claims, changes in the legal and regulatory environment, product development trends, and
changes in the frequency and/or severity of claims relative to historical experience.
The reserve for product liability was $46 million as of October 31, 2012 and a hypothetical 10% change in claim amount would
increase or decrease this accrual by $5 million.
Environmental remediation matters
We are subject to claims by various governmental authorities regarding environmental remediation matters.
With regard to environmental remediation, many factors are involved including interpretations of local, state, and federal laws
and regulations, and whether wastes or other hazardous material are contaminating the surrounding land or water or have the
potential to cause such contamination.
As of October 31, 2012, we have accrued $21 million for environmental remediation. Although we believe that the estimates
and judgments discussed herein are reasonable, actual results could differ and we may be exposed to increases or decreases in
our accrual that could be material.
Asbestos claims
We are subject to claims related to illnesses alleged to have resulted from asbestos exposure from component parts found in
older vehicles, although some claims relate to the alleged presence of asbestos in our facilities. Numerous factors including tort
reform, jury awards, and the number of other solvent companies identified as co-defendants will impact the number of claims
filed against the Company.
The estimate of the asbestos liability is subject to uncertainty. Such uncertainty includes some reliance on industry data to
project the future frequency of claims received by us, the long latency period associated with asbestos exposures and the types
of diseases that will ultimately manifest, and unexpected future inflationary trends. Historically, actual damages paid out to
individual claimants have not been material. Although we believe that our estimates and judgments related to asbestos related
claims are reasonable, actual results could differ and we may be exposed to increases or decreases in our accrual that could be
material.
Product Warranty
We generally offer one to five-year warranty coverage for our truck and engine products, as well as our service parts. Terms
and conditions vary by product, customer, and country. We accrue warranty related costs under standard warranty terms and for
certain claims outside the contractual obligation period that we choose to pay as accommodations to our customers.
Our warranty estimates are established using historical information about the nature, frequency, timing, and average cost of
warranty claims. Warranty claims are influenced by numerous factors, including new product introductions, technological
developments, the competitive environment, the design and manufacturing process, and the complexity and related costs of
component parts. We estimate our warranty accrual for our engines and trucks based on engine types and model years. Our
warranty accruals take into account the projected ultimate cost-per-unit (“CPU”) utilizing historical claims information. The
CPU represents the total cash project to be spent for warranty claims for a particular model year during the warranty period,
divided by the number of units sold. The projection of the ultimate CPU is affected by component failure rates, repair costs, and
56
the timing of failures in the product life cycle. Warranty claims inherently have a high amount of variability in timing and
severity and can be influenced by external factors. Our warranty estimation process takes into consideration numerous variables
that contribute to the precision of the estimate, but also add to the complexity of the model. Including numerous variables also
reduces the sensitivity of the model to any one variable. We perform periodic reviews of warranty spend data to allow for
timely consideration of the effects on warranty accruals. We also utilize actuarial analysis in order to determine whether our
accrual estimate falls within a reasonable range.
Recent emissions standards have resulted in rapid product development cycles that have included significant changes from
previous engine models. Component complexity and other related costs associated with meeting emissions standards have
contributed to higher repair costs that exceeded those that we have historically experienced. Initial warranty estimates for new
model year products are based on the previous model year product's warranty experience until the new product progresses
sufficiently through its life cycle and related claims data becomes mature. Historically, warranty claims experience for launch-
year products has been higher compared to the prior model-year engines; however, over time we have been able to refine both
the design and manufacturing process to reduce both the volume and the severity of warranty claims. New product launches
require a greater use of judgment in developing estimates until historical experience becomes available. For initial warranty
estimates related to new launch year products, we consider historic experience from previous launches and may include a factor
in our estimation process to account for the anticipated benefits of improvements in the design and manufacturing processes.
We record adjustments to pre-existing warranties for changes in our estimate of warranty costs for products sold in prior fiscal
years. Such adjustments typically occur when claims experience deviates from historic and expected trends. Throughout 2012,
engine warranty claims experience was significantly worse than historic experience and expectations. As a result of the increase
in warranty spend during 2012 and evaluation of warranty data subsequent to year end, we recognized charges for adjustments
to pre-existing warranties that were significantly greater than historic experience. Future events and circumstances could
materially change these estimates and require additional adjustments to our liability.
When we identify cost effective opportunities to correct issues in products sold or corrective actions for safety issues, we
initiate product recalls or field campaigns. As a result of the uncertainty surrounding the nature and frequency of product recalls
and field campaigns, the liability for such actions are generally recorded when we commit to a product recall or field campaign.
Included in 2012 warranty expense, was $130 million of charges related to field campaigns we initiated to address issues in
products sold, as compared to $23 million in the prior year. The charges were primarily recognized as adjustments to pre-
existing warranties. As we continue to identify opportunities to improve the design and manufacturing of our engines we may
incur additional charges for product recalls and field campaigns to address identified issues.
Optional extended warranty contracts can be purchased for periods ranging from one to ten years. Warranty revenues related to
extended warranty contracts are amortized to income, over the life of the contract using the straight-line method. Costs under
extended warranty contracts are expensed as incurred. We recognize losses on extended warranty contracts when the expected
costs under the contracts exceed related unearned revenue. Included in 2012 warranty expense, we recognized net charges of
$66 million for losses on extended warranty contracts for our 2010 emissions standard MaxxForce Big-Bore engines. The net
charges included $19 million related to contracts sold in the current year and $47 million recognized as adjustments to pre-
existing warranties. Future warranty experience, pricing of extended warranty contracts, and external market factors may cause
us to recognize additional charges as losses on extended service contracts in future periods.
When collection is reasonably assured, we also estimate the amount of warranty claim recoveries to be received from our
suppliers and record them in Other current assets and Other noncurrent assets. Recoveries related to specific product recalls, in
which a supplier confirms its liability under the recall, are recorded in Trade and other receivables, net. Warranty costs are
included in Costs of products sold.
Although we believe that the estimates and judgments discussed herein are reasonable, actual results could differ and we may
be exposed to increases or decreases in our warranty accrual that could be material.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
There are no recently issued accounting standards for which the Company expects a material impact on our consolidated
financial statements.

Item 7A.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Our primary market risks include fluctuations in interest rates and currency exchange rates. We are also exposed to changes in
the prices of commodities used in our manufacturing operations. Commodity price risk related to our current commodity
financial instruments are not material. We do not hold a material portfolio of market risk sensitive instruments for trading
purposes.
We have established policies and procedures to manage sensitivity to interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate market
risk. These procedures include the monitoring of our level of exposure to each market risk, the funding of variable rate
receivables primarily with variable rate debt, and limiting the amount of fixed rate receivables that may be funded with floating
rate debt. These procedures also include the use of derivative financial instruments to mitigate the effects of interest rate
fluctuations and to reduce our exposure to exchange rate risk.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that we will incur economic losses due to adverse changes in interest rates. We measure our 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 discounted cash flow
analysis. At October 31, 2012 and 2011, the net fair value of our liabilities with exposure to interest rate risk was $4.7 billion
and $5.2 billion, respectively. Assuming a hypothetical instantaneous 10% adverse change in interest rates as of October 31,
2012 and 2011, the fair value of these liabilities would increase by $90 million and $84 million, respectively. At October 31,
2012 and 2011, the net fair value of our assets with exposure to interest rate risk was $2.2 billion and $3.0 billion, respectively.
Assuming a hypothetical instantaneous 10% adverse change in interest rates as of October 31, 2012 and 2011, the fair value of
these assets would decrease by $15 million and $54 million, respectively. Our interest rate sensitivity analysis assumes a
parallel shift in interest rate yield curves. The analysis, therefore, does not reflect the potential impact of changes in the
relationship between short-term and long-term interest rates.
Commodity price risk
We are exposed to changes in the prices of commodities, particularly for aluminum, copper, precious metals, resins, diesel fuel,
and steel and their impact on the acquisition cost of various parts used in our manufacturing operations. We have been able to
mitigate the effects of price increases via a combination of design changes, material substitution, global sourcing, and price
performance. In certain cases, we use derivative instruments to reduce exposure to price changes. During 2012, we purchased
approximately $482 million of commodities subject to market risk. Assuming a hypothetical instantaneous 10% adverse change
in commodity pricing during 2012, we would have incurred an additional $48 million of costs. Commodity price risk
associated with our derivative position at October 31, 2012 and 2011 is not material to our operating results or financial
position.
Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that we will incur economic losses due to adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
Our primary exposures to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations are the Canadian dollar/U.S. dollar, Mexican peso/
U.S. dollar, Euro/U.S. dollar, and Brazilian real/U.S. dollar. At October 31, 2012 and 2011, the net fair value of our liabilities
with exposure to foreign currency risk was $254 million and $302 million, respectively. Assuming that no offsetting derivative
financial instruments exist, the reduction in earnings from a hypothetical instantaneous 10% adverse change in quoted foreign
currency spot rates applied to foreign currency sensitive instruments would be $25 million and $30 million at October 31, 2012
and 2011, respectively. At October 31, 2012 and 2011, the net fair value of our assets with exposure to foreign currency risk
was $215 million and $217 million, respectively. Assuming that no offsetting derivative financial instruments exist, the
reduction in earnings from a hypothetical instantaneous 10% adverse change in quoted foreign currency spot rates applied to
foreign currency sensitive instruments would be $21 million and $22 million at October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
For further information regarding models, assumptions and parameters related to market risk, please see Note 12, Fair Value
Measurements, and Note 13, Financial Instruments and Commodity Contracts, to the accompanying consolidated financial
statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To: The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Navistar International Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets of Navistar International Corporation and subsidiaries (the
Company) as of October 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements
of Comprehensive Income (Loss), Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Equity (Deficit), and Consolidated Statements of
Cash Flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended October 31, 2012. We also have audited Navistar International
Corporation's internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control-
Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The
Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control
over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the
accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A(c) of the
Company's October 31, 2012 annual report on Form 10-K. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements and an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in
all material respects. Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over
financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a
material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the
assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the
company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Navistar International Corporation and subsidiaries as of October 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended October 31, 2012, in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the Company has maintained, in all material respects, effective
internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated
Framework issued by COSO.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Description of the Business
Navistar International Corporation ("NIC"), incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 1993, is a holding company
whose principal operating subsidiaries are Navistar, Inc. and Navistar Financial Corporation ("NFC"). References herein to the
"Company," "we," "our," or "us" refer collectively to NIC and its consolidated subsidiaries, including certain variable interest
entities ("VIEs") of which we are the primary beneficiary. We operate in four principal industry segments: Truck, Engine, Parts
(collectively called "manufacturing operations"), and Financial Services, which consists of NFC and our foreign finance
operations (collectively called "financial services operations"). These segments are discussed in Note 15, Segment Reporting.
Our fiscal year ends on October 31. All references to 2012, 2011, and 2010 relate to the fiscal year unless otherwise indicated.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements include the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of our
manufacturing operations, which include majority-owned dealers ("Dealcors"), and our financial services operations, including
VIEs of which we are the primary beneficiary. The effects of transactions among consolidated entities have been eliminated to
arrive at the consolidated amounts. Certain reclassifications were made to prior years' amounts to conform to the 2012
presentation.
Variable Interest Entities
We have an interest in several VIEs, primarily joint ventures, established to manufacture or distribute products and enhance our
operational capabilities. We have determined for certain of our VIEs that we are the primary beneficiary because we have the
power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance and have the obligation
to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that
could potentially be significant to the VIE. Accordingly, we include in our consolidated financial statements the assets and
liabilities and results of operations of those entities, even though we may not own a majority voting interest. The liabilities
recognized as a result of consolidating these VIEs do not represent additional claims on our general assets; rather they represent
claims against the specific assets of these VIEs. Assets of these entities are not available to satisfy claims against our general
assets.
We are the primary beneficiary of our Blue Diamond Parts ("BDP") and Blue Diamond Truck ("BDT") joint ventures with Ford
Motor Company ("Ford"). As a result, our Consolidated Balance Sheets include assets of $246 million and $306 million and
liabilities of $109 million and $158 million as of October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, respectively, from BDP and BDT,
including $26 million and $38 million of cash and cash equivalents, at the respective dates, which are not readily available to
satisfy our other obligations. The creditors of BDP and BDT do not have recourse to our general credit. In December 2011,
Ford notified the Company of its intention to dissolve the BDT joint venture effective December 2014. We do not expect the
dissolution of the BDT joint venture to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Our Financial Services segment consolidates several VIEs. As a result, our Consolidated Balance Sheets include assets of $1.1
billion and $1.8 billion as of October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, respectively, and liabilities of $914 million and $1.5
billion as of October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, respectively, all of which are involved in securitizations that are treated as
borrowings. In addition, our Consolidated Balance Sheets include assets of $359 million and $468 million and related liabilities
of $157 million and $216 million as of October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, respectively, all of which are involved in
transactions that do not qualify for sale accounting treatment and are therefore treated as borrowings. Investors that hold
securitization debt have a priority claim on the cash flows generated by their respective securitized assets to the extent that the
related trusts are entitled to make principal and interest payments. Investors in securitizations of these entities have no recourse
to our general credit.
Prior to the adoption of new guidance on accounting for transfers of financial assets on November 1, 2010, our Financial
Services segment did not consolidate the assets and liabilities of the conduit funding facility of Truck Retail Accounts
Corporation ("TRAC"), our consolidated special purpose entity ("SPE"), as we were not the primary beneficiary of the conduit
and transfers of finance receivables to the facility qualified for sale accounting treatment. TRAC retained residual economic
interests in the future cash flows of the securitized assets that were owned by the conduit. We carried these retained interests as
an asset, included in Finance receivables, net on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Subsequent to the adoption of the new
accounting guidance, previous transfers of finance receivables from our Financial Services segment to the TRAC conduit
retained their sales accounting treatment while prospective transfers of finance receivables no longer receive sale accounting
treatment.
66
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
We also have an interest in other VIEs, which we do not consolidate because we are not the primary beneficiary. Our financial
support and maximum loss exposure relating to these non-consolidated VIEs are not material to our financial condition, results
of operations, or cash flows.
We use the equity method to account for our investments in entities that we do not control under the voting interest or variable
interest models, but where we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies. Equity in
loss of non-consolidated affiliates includes our share of the net income (loss) of these entities.
Dealer operations
We acquire and dispose of dealerships from time to time to facilitate the transition of dealerships from one independent owner
to another. These dealerships are included in our consolidated financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition in
our Truck segment. We did not acquire any dealerships in 2012, 2011, or 2010.
We sold two, four, and three of our Dealcors during the years ended October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. The gains
or losses associated with the sales of these Dealcors were not material.
2010 Out-Of-Period Adjustments
Included in the results of operations for the year ended October 31, 2010 are certain out-of-period adjustments. These
adjustments represent corrections of prior-period errors primarily related to the following: (i) an understatement of our net
obligation for pension benefits of $3 million in 2009 and $2 million in 2008 and (ii) an understatement of our deferred tax
assets of $5 million related to an error in the application of accounting guidance for defined benefits related to our reserve for
certain disability programs for our Canadian operation in 2008. Correcting these errors, which were not material to any of the
related periods, resulted in a $10 million decrease to Net income for the year ended October 31, 2010.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S.
GAAP") requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
of contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
for the periods presented. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but are not limited to, pension and other
postretirement benefits, allowance for doubtful accounts, income tax contingency accruals and valuation allowances, product
warranty accruals, asbestos and other product liability accruals, asset impairment charges, and litigation-related accruals. Actual
results could differ from our estimates.
Reversal of tax reserve for change in estimate
Under the Brazilian tax system, the state government levies a tax on the incremental value added to goods or service
(commonly known as "value added tax" or "VAT"). The VAT is computed based on the value added to the taxed item which is
then included in the price of products sold and purchased. We periodically review our VAT credit balances for recoverability
based primarily on projected sales and purchases. In the past, we determined that a portion of our VAT credits were not
recoverable and accordingly provided an allowance against the balance not expected to be recovered. In conjunction with the
review that occurred during the second quarter of 2010, we reevaluated our VAT credit balance and reserve and concluded that
based on actions taken to facilitate changes in sales mix between domestic and export and production locations, it was probable
that previously reserved VAT credits will be utilized. As a result, we recognized a material pre-tax adjustment for this change in
estimate in Other income, net of $42 million, or $0.58 per diluted share, in 2010.
Concentration Risks
Our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows are subject to concentration risks related to concentrations of
union employees and one customer. As of October 31, 2012, approximately 4,600, or 48%, of our hourly workers and
approximately 400, or 5%, of our salaried workers are represented by labor unions and are covered by collective bargaining
agreements. For a discussion of customer concentration, see Note 15, Segment Reporting. Additionally, our future operations
may be affected by changes in governmental procurement policies, budget considerations, changing national defense
requirements, and global, political, regulatory and economic developments in the U.S. and certain foreign countries (primarily
Canada, Mexico, and Brazil).
67
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
Revenue Recognition
Our manufacturing operations recognize revenue when we meet four basic criteria: (i) persuasive evidence that a customer
arrangement exists, (ii) the price is fixed or determinable, (iii) collectibility is reasonably assured, and (iv) delivery of product
has occurred or services have been rendered. Sales are generally recognized when risk of ownership passes.
Sales to fleet customers and governmental entities are recognized in accordance with the terms of each contract. Revenue on
certain customer requested bill and hold arrangements is not recognized until after the customer is notified that the product
(i) has been completed according to customer specifications, (ii) has passed our quality control inspections, and (iii) is ready for
delivery based upon the established delivery terms.
An allowance for sales returns is recorded as a reduction to revenue based upon estimates using historical information about
returns. For the sale of service parts that include a core component, we record revenue on a gross basis including the fair market
value of the core. A core component is the basic forging or casting, such as an engine block, that can be remanufactured by a
certified remanufacturing supplier. When a dealer returns a core within the specified eligibility period, we provide a core return
credit, which is applied to the customer's account balance. At times, we may mark up the core charge beyond the amount we are
charged by the supplier. This mark up is recorded as a liability, as it represents the amount that will be paid to the dealer upon
return of the core component and is in excess of the fair value to be received from the supplier.
Concurrent with our recognition of revenue, we recognize price allowances and the cost of incentive programs in the normal
course of business based on programs offered to dealers or fleet customers. Estimates are made for sales incentives on certain
vehicles in dealer stock inventory when special programs that provide specific incentives to dealers are offered in order to
facilitate sales to end customers.
Truck sales to the U.S. and foreign governments, of non-commercial products manufactured to government specifications, are
recognized using the units-of-delivery measure under the percentage-of-completion accounting method as units are delivered
and accepted by the government.
Certain terms or modifications to U.S. and foreign government contracts may be unpriced; that is, the work to be performed is
defined, but the related contract price is to be negotiated at a later date. In situations where we can reliably estimate a profit
margin in excess of costs incurred, revenue and gross margin are recorded for delivered contract items. Otherwise, revenue is
recognized when the price has been agreed with the government and costs are deferred when it is probable that the costs will be
recovered.
Shipping and handling amounts billed to our customers are included in Sales of manufactured products, net and the related
shipping and handling costs incurred are included in Costs of products sold.
Financial services operations recognize revenue from retail notes, finance leases, wholesale notes, retail accounts, and
wholesale accounts as Finance revenues over the term of the receivables utilizing the effective interest method. Certain direct
origination costs and fees are deferred and recognized as adjustments to yield and are reported as part of interest income over
the life of the receivable. Loans are considered to be impaired when we conclude it is probable the customer will not be able to
make full payment after reviewing the customer's financial performance, payment ability, capital-raising potential, management
style, economic situation, and other factors. The accrual of interest on such loans is discontinued when the collection of the
account becomes doubtful or loan is 90 days or more past due. Finance revenues on these loans are recognized only to the
extent cash payments are received. We resume accruing interest on these accounts when payments are current according to the
terms of the loans and future payments are reasonably assured.
Operating lease revenues are recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease. Recognition of revenue is suspended
when management determines the collection of future revenue is not probable. Recognition of revenue is resumed if collection
again becomes probable.
Selected receivables are securitized and sold to public and private investors with limited recourse. Our financial services
operations continue to service the sold receivables and receive fees for such services. Gains or losses on sales of receivables
that qualified for sales accounting treatment were credited or charged to Finance revenues in the period in which the sale
occurred. Discount accretion was recognized on an effective yield basis and is included in Finance revenues.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
All highly liquid financial instruments with maturities of 90 days or less from date of purchase, consisting primarily of
U.S. Treasury bills, federal agency securities, and commercial paper, are classified as cash equivalents.
68
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
Restricted cash is related to our securitized facilities, senior and subordinated floating rate asset-backed notes, wholesale trust
agreements, indentured trust agreements, letters of credit, Environmental Protection Agency requirements, and workers
compensation requirements. The restricted cash and cash equivalents for our securitized facilities is restricted to pay interest
expense, principal, or other amounts associated with our securitization agreements.
Marketable Securities
Marketable securities consist of available-for-sale securities and are measured and reported at fair value. The difference
between amortized cost and fair value is recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL") in
Stockholders' Equity (Deficit), net of taxes. Most securities with remaining maturities of less than twelve months and other
investments needed for current cash requirements are classified as current in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Gains and losses
on the sale of marketable securities are determined using the specific identification method and are recorded in Other (income)
expenses, net.
We evaluate our investments in marketable securities at the end of each reporting period to determine if a decline in fair value is
other than temporary. When a decline in fair value is determined to be other than temporary, an impairment charge is recorded
and a new cost basis in the investment is established. Our marketable securities are classified as Level 1 in the fair value
hierarchy.
Derivative Instruments
We utilize derivative instruments to manage certain exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, and
commodity prices. The fair values of all derivative instruments are recognized as assets or liabilities at the balance sheet date.
Changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments are recognized in our operating results or included in AOCL,
depending on whether the derivative instrument is a fair value or cash flow hedge and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting
treatment. The Company elected to apply the normal purchase and normal sale exclusion to certain commodity contracts that
are entered into to be used in production within a reasonable time during the normal course of business. For the years ended
October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, none of our derivatives qualified for hedge accounting and all changes in the fair value of
our derivatives, except for those qualifying under the normal purchases and normal sales exception, were recognized in our
operating results.
Gains and losses on derivative instruments are recognized in Costs of products sold, Interest expense, or Other (income)
expenses, net depending on the underlying exposure. The exchange of cash associated with derivative transactions is classified
in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in the same category as the cash flows from the items subject to the economic
hedging relationships.
Trade and Finance Receivables
Trade Receivables
Trade accounts receivable and trade notes receivable primarily arise from sales of goods to independently owned and operated
dealers, original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs"), and commercial customers in the normal course of business.
Finance Receivables
Finance receivables consist of the following:
Retail notes—Retail notes primarily consist of fixed rate loans to commercial customers to facilitate their purchase of new
and used trucks, trailers, and related equipment.
Finance leases—Finance leases consist of direct financing leases to commercial customers for acquisition of new and used
trucks, trailers, and related equipment.
Wholesale notes—Wholesale notes primarily consist of variable rate loans to our dealers for the purchase of new and used
trucks, trailers, and related equipment.
Retail accounts—Retail accounts consist of short-term accounts receivable that finance the sale of products to commercial
customers.
Wholesale accounts—Wholesale accounts consist of short-term accounts receivable primarily related to the sales of items
other than trucks, trailers, and related equipment (e.g. service parts) to dealers.
Finance receivables are classified as held-to-maturity and are recorded at gross value less unearned income and are reported net
of allowances for doubtful accounts. Unearned revenue is amortized to revenue over the life of the receivable using the
effective interest method. Our financial services operations purchase the majority of the wholesale notes receivable and some
69
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
retail notes and accounts receivable arising from our manufacturing operations. The financial services operations retain as
collateral a security interest in the equipment associated with retail notes, wholesale notes, and finance leases.
Sales of Finance Receivables
We sell finance receivables using a process commonly known as securitization, whereby asset-backed securities are sold via
public offering or private placement. These transactions are accounted for either as a sale with gain or loss recorded at the date
of sale and a retained interest recorded, or as secured borrowings. Effective November 1, 2010, none of our securitization and
receivable sale arrangements qualify for sales accounting treatment. As a result, the transferred receivables and the associated
secured borrowings are included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets and no gain or loss is recorded for these transactions.
Prior to an amendment to the Master Trust on July 31, 2010, our wholesale note securitization arrangements qualified for sale
accounting treatment whereby the notes receivable were removed from our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Gains or losses from
these sales were recognized in the period of sale based upon the relative fair value of the portion sold and the portions allocated
to the retained interests, and are included in Finance revenues. Additionally, transfers of retail accounts made to a bank conduit
funding facility prior to November 1, 2010, qualified for sale accounting treatment.
For those transfers that previously qualified for sales accounting treatment, we retained interests in the receivables sold
(transferred). The retained interests in retail accounts included receivables used as over-collateralization ("excess sellers'
interests") and cash reserves held for the benefit of the trust. Prior to July 31, 2010, the retained interest also included excess
sellers' interest, cash reserves and interest only strips relating to wholesale notes. We carried these retained interests as an asset,
included in Finance receivables, net on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our exposure to credit losses on the transferred
receivables was limited to our retained interests. Other than being required to repurchase receivables that fail to satisfy certain
representations and warranties provided at the time of the securitization, we are under no obligation to repurchase any
transferred receivable that becomes delinquent in payment or otherwise is in default. The holders of the asset-backed securities
have no recourse to us or our other assets for credit losses on transferred receivables, and have no ability to require us to
repurchase their securities. We do not guarantee any securities issued by trusts.
We determined the fair value of our retained interests by discounting the future expected cash flows. The future expected cash
flows were primarily affected by expected payment speeds and default rates. We estimated the payment speeds for the
receivables sold, the discount rate used to determine the present value of the excess sellers' interests and cash reserves, and the
anticipated net losses on the receivables in order to calculate the gain or loss on arrangements that previously qualified for sales
treatment. Estimates were based on historical experience, anticipated future portfolio performance, market-based discount rates,
and other factors and were calculated separately for each securitized transaction. In addition, we remeasured the fair values of
the retained interests on a quarterly basis and recognized changes in Finance revenues as required.
We also act as servicer of transferred receivables in exchange for a fee. The servicing duties include collecting payments on
receivables and preparing monthly investor reports on the performance of the receivables that are used by the trustee to
distribute monthly interest and principal payments to investors. While servicing the receivables, we apply the same servicing
policies and procedures that are applied to our owned receivables. The servicing income received by us is adequate to
compensate us for our servicing responsibilities. Therefore, no servicing asset or liability is recorded.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
An allowance for doubtful accounts is established through a charge to Selling, general and administrative expenses. The
allowance is an estimate of the amount required to absorb probable losses on trade and finance receivables that may become
uncollectible. The receivables are charged off when amounts due are determined to be uncollectible.
We have two portfolio segments of finance receivables based on the type of financing inherent to each portfolio. The retail
portfolio segment represents loans or leases to end-users for the purchase or lease of vehicles. The wholesale portfolio segment
represents loans to dealers to finance their inventory. As the initial measurement attributes and the monitoring and assessment
of credit risk or the performance of the receivables are consistent within each of our receivable portfolios, we determined that
each portfolio consisted of one class of receivable.
Troubled loan accounts are specifically identified and segregated from the remaining owned loan portfolio. The expected loss
on troubled accounts is fully reserved in a separate calculation as a specific reserve. A specific reserve is recorded if it is
determined that the account is impaired, and if the value of the underlying collateral is less than the principal balance of the
loan. We calculate a general reserve on the remaining loan portfolio by applying loss ratios which are determined using
historical loss experience in conjunction with current portfolio quality trends. The historical loss experience and portfolio
quality trends of the retail portfolio segment compared to the wholesale portfolio segment are inherently different. In addition,
70
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
we analyze specific economic indicators such as tonnage, fuel prices, and gross domestic product for additional insight into the
overall state of the economy and its potential impact on our portfolio.
To establish a specific reserve in the loss allowance for impaired accounts, we look at many of the same factors discussed above
but also consider the financial strength of the customer or dealer and key management, the timeliness of payments, the number
and location of satellite locations (especially for the dealer), the number of dealers of competitor manufacturers in the market
area, the type of equipment normally financed, and the seasonality of the business.
Repossessions
Gains or losses arising from the sale of repossessed collateral supporting finance receivables and operating leases are
recognized in Selling, general and administrative expenses. Repossessed assets are recorded within Inventories at the lower of
historical cost or fair value, less estimated costs to sell.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is principally determined using the first-in, first-out ("FIFO")
method.
Property and Equipment
We report land, buildings, leasehold improvements, machinery and equipment (including tooling and pattern equipment),
furniture, fixtures, and equipment, and equipment leased to others at cost, net of depreciation. We initially record assets under
capital lease obligations at the lower of their fair value or the present value of the aggregate future minimum lease payments.
We depreciate our assets using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful lives of the
assets.
The ranges of estimated useful lives are as follows:
Years
Buildings ............................................................................................................................................................................ 20 - 50
3 - 20
Leasehold improvements ...................................................................................................................................................
3 - 12
Machinery and equipment..................................................................................................................................................
3 - 15
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment.....................................................................................................................................
1 - 10
Equipment leased to others ................................................................................................................................................
Long-lived assets are evaluated periodically to determine if adjustment to the depreciation and amortization period or to the
unamortized balance is warranted. Such evaluation is based principally on the expected utilization of the long-lived assets.
We depreciate trucks, tractors, and trailers leased to customers under operating lease agreements on a straight-line basis to the
equipment's estimated residual value over the lease term. The residual values of the equipment represent estimates of the value
of the assets at the end of the lease contracts and are initially recorded based on estimates of future market values. Realization
of the residual values is dependent on our future ability to market the equipment. We review residual values periodically to
determine that recorded amounts are appropriate and the equipment has not been impaired.
Maintenance and repairs of property and equipment are expensed as incurred. We capitalize replacements and improvements
that increase the estimated useful life or productive capacity of an asset and we capitalize interest on major construction and
development projects while in progress.
Gains or losses on disposition of property and equipment are recognized in Other (income) expenses, net.
We test for impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an
asset or asset group (hereinafter referred to as "asset group") may not be recoverable by comparing the sum of the estimated
undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the operation of the asset group and its eventual disposition to the
carrying value. If the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value, the fair value of the asset group
is determined. The amount of impairment is calculated by subtracting the fair value of the asset group from the carrying value
of the asset group.
71
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
We evaluate goodwill and other intangible assets not subject to amortization for impairment annually or more frequently
whenever indicators of potential impairment exist. Goodwill is considered impaired when the fair value of a reporting unit is
determined to be less than the carrying value including goodwill. The amount of impairment loss is determined based on a
comparison of the implied fair value of the goodwill of the reporting unit to the actual carrying value. Intangible assets not
subject to amortization are considered impaired when the fair value of the intangible asset is determined to be less than the
carrying value.
Qualitative factors may be assessed to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less
than its carrying amount. If an election is made not to perform the qualitative assessment or the qualitative assessment indicates
it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying amount, we use the present value of estimated future cash
flows to establish the estimated fair value of our reporting units as of the testing date. This approach includes many assumptions
related to future growth rates, discount rates, market comparables, control premiums and tax rates, among other considerations.
Changes in economic and operating conditions impacting these assumptions could result in an impairment of goodwill in future
periods. When available and as appropriate, we use comparative market multiples to corroborate the estimated fair value.
Intangible assets subject to amortization are also evaluated for impairment periodically or when indicators of impairment are
determined to exist. We test for impairment of intangible assets, subject to amortization, by comparing the sum of the estimated
undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the operation of the asset group and its eventual disposition to the
carrying value. If the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value, the fair value of the asset group
is determined. The amount of impairment is calculated by subtracting the fair value of the asset group from the carrying value
of the asset group. Intangible assets, subject to amortization, could become impaired in the future or require additional charges
as a result of declines in profitability due to changes in volume, market pricing, cost, manner in which an asset is used, physical
condition of an asset, laws and regulations, or the business environment. Significant adverse changes to our business
environment or expected future cash flows could cause us to record additional impairment charges in future periods, which
could be material. We amortize the cost of intangible assets over their respective estimated useful lives, generally on a straight-
line basis.
The ranges for the amortization periods are generally as follows:
Customer base and relationships........................................................................................................................................
Trademarks.........................................................................................................................................................................
Supply agreements .............................................................................................................................................................
Other ..................................................................................................................................................................................
Years

Investments in Non-consolidated Affiliates
Equity method investments are recorded at original cost and adjusted periodically to recognize (i) our proportionate share of the
investees' net income or losses after the date of investment, (ii) additional contributions made and dividends or distributions
received, and (iii) impairment losses resulting from adjustments to fair value.
We assess the potential impairment of our equity method investments and determine fair value based on valuation
methodologies, as appropriate, including the present value of estimated future cash flows, estimates of sales proceeds, and
market multiples. If an investment is determined to be impaired and the decline in value is other than temporary, we record an
appropriate write-down.
Accounts Payable
In 2012, the Company entered into a customer-managed services agreement with a third-party to provide participating suppliers
the ability to finance payment obligations from the Company with designated third-party financial institutions. Participating
suppliers may, at their sole discretion, make offers to finance one or more payment obligations of the Company, prior to their
scheduled due dates, at a discounted price to participating financial institutions. Amounts under the agreement were not material
at October 31, 2012.
Debt Issuance Costs
We amortize debt issuance costs and premiums over the remaining life of the related debt using the effective interest method.
The related income or expense is included in Interest expense. We record discounts or premiums as a direct deduction from, or
addition to, the face amount of the debt.
72
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
Pensions and Postretirement Benefits
We use actuarial methods and assumptions to account for our pension plans and other postretirement benefit plans. Pension and
other postretirement benefits expense includes the actuarially computed cost of benefits earned during the current service
period, the interest cost on accrued obligations, the expected return on plan assets, the straight-line amortization of net actuarial
gains and losses and plan amendments, and adjustments due to settlements and curtailments.
Engineering and Product Development Costs
Engineering and product development costs arise from ongoing costs associated with improving existing products and
manufacturing processes and for the introduction of new truck and engine components and products, and are expensed as
incurred.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in Selling, general and administrative expenses. These costs totaled
$78 million, $71 million, and $63 million for the years ended October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.
Contingency Accruals
We accrue for loss contingencies associated with outstanding litigation for which we have determined it is probable that a loss
has occurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Our asbestos, product liability, environmental, and workers
compensation accruals also include estimated future legal fees associated with the loss contingencies, as we believe we can
reasonably estimate those costs. In all other instances, legal fees are expensed as incurred. These expenses may be recorded in
Costs of products sold, Selling, general and administrative expenses, or Other (income) expenses, net. These estimates are
based on our expectations of the scope, length to complete, and complexity of the claims. In the future, additional adjustments
may be recorded as the scope, length, or complexity of outstanding litigation changes.
Warranty
We generally offer one to five-year warranty coverage for our truck and engine products, as well as our service parts. Terms and
conditions vary by product, customer, and country. We accrue warranty related costs under standard warranty terms and for
certain claims outside the contractual obligation period that we choose to pay as accommodations to our customers.
Our warranty estimates are established using historical information about the nature, frequency, timing, and average cost of
warranty claims. Warranty claims are influenced by numerous factors, including new product introductions, technological
developments, the competitive environment, the design and manufacturing process, and the complexity and related costs of
component parts. We estimate our warranty accrual for our engines and trucks based on engine types and model years. Our
warranty accruals take into account the projected ultimate cost-per-unit (“CPU”) utilizing historical claims information. The
CPU represents the total cash projected to be spent for warranty claims for a particular model year during the warranty period,
divided by the number of units sold. The projection of the ultimate CPU is affected by component failure rates, repair costs, and
the timing of failures in the product life cycle. Warranty claims inherently have a high amount of variability in timing and
severity and can be influenced by external factors. Our warranty estimation process takes into consideration numerous variables
that contribute to the precision of the estimate, but also add to the complexity of the model. Including numerous variables also
reduces the sensitivity of the model to any one variable. We perform periodic reviews of warranty spend data to allow for
timely consideration of the effects on warranty accruals. We also utilize actuarial analysis in order to determine whether our
accrual estimate falls within a reasonable range.
Recent emissions standards have resulted in rapid product development cycles that have included significant changes from
previous engine models. Component complexity and other related costs associated with meeting emissions standards have
contributed to higher repair costs that exceeded those that we have historically experienced. Initial warranty estimates for new
model year products are based on the previous model year product's warranty experience until the new product progresses
sufficiently through its life cycle and related claims data becomes mature. Historically, warranty claims experience for launch-
year products has been higher compared to the prior model-year engines; however, over time we have been able to refine both
the design and manufacturing process to reduce both the volume and the severity of warranty claims. New product launches
require a greater use of judgment in developing estimates until historical experience becomes available. For initial warranty
estimates related to new launch year products, we consider historic experience from previous launches and may include a factor
in our estimation process to account for the anticipated benefits of improvements in the design and manufacturing processes.

Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
We record adjustments to pre-existing warranties for changes in our estimate of warranty costs for products sold in prior fiscal
years. Such adjustments typically occur when claims experience deviates from historic and expected trends. Throughout 2012,
engine warranty claims experience was significantly worse than historic experience and expectations. As a result of the increase
in warranty spend during 2012 and evaluation of warranty data subsequent to year end, we recognized charges for adjustments
to pre-existing warranties that were significantly greater than historic experience. Future events and circumstances could
materially change these estimates and require additional adjustments to our liability.
When we identify cost effective opportunities to address issues in products sold or corrective actions for safety issues, we
initiate product recalls or field campaigns. As a result of the uncertainty surrounding the nature and frequency of product recalls
and field campaigns, the liability for such actions are generally recorded when we commit to a product recall or field campaign.
Included in 2012 warranty expense, was $130 million of charges related to field campaigns we initiated to address issues in
products sold, as compared to $23 million in the prior year. The charges were primarily recognized as adjustments to pre-
existing warranties. As we continue to identify opportunities to improve the design and manufacturing of our engines we may
incur additional charges for product recalls and field campaigns to address identified issues.
Optional extended warranty contracts can be purchased for periods ranging from one to ten years. Warranty revenues related to
extended warranty contracts are amortized to income, over the life of the contract using the straight-line method. Costs under
extended warranty contracts are expensed as incurred. We recognize losses on extended warranty contracts when the expected
costs under the contracts exceed related unearned revenue.
When collection is reasonably assured, we also estimate the amount of warranty claim recoveries to be received from our
suppliers and record them in Other current assets and Other noncurrent assets. Recoveries related to specific product recalls, in
which a supplier confirms its liability under the recall, are recorded in Trade and other receivables, net. Warranty costs are
included in Costs of products sold.
Although we believe that the estimates and judgments discussed herein are reasonable, actual results could differ and we may
be exposed to increases or decreases in our warranty accrual that could be material.

_________________________
(A) The warranty estimation for engines sold in 2012 includes a factor for improvements to the design and manufacturing process that was based on historical
experience. In the fourth quarter of 2012 we identified a deviation from historic experience and we recorded an adjustment for a change in estimate to
increase in the costs accrued for warranty of $28 million, or $0.41 per diluted share for products sold in the first three quarters of 2012.
In the first quarter of 2012, we recorded significant adjustments for changes in estimates of $123 million, or $1.76 per diluted share. In the second quarter
of 2012, we recorded significant adjustments for changes in estimates of $104 million, or $1.51 per diluted share. In the fourth quarter of 2012, we
recorded significant adjustments for changes in estimates of $149 million, or $2.16 per diluted share. In the third quarter of 2011, we recorded significant
adjustments for changes in estimates of $30 million, or $0.39 per diluted share. In the second quarter of 2011, we recorded significant adjustments for
changes in estimates of $27 million, or $0.34 per diluted share. In the third quarter of 2010, we recorded significant adjustments for changes in estimates
of $25 million, or $0.34 diluted share.
The amount of deferred revenue related to extended warranty programs was $364 million, $257 million, and $167 million at
October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. Revenue recognized under our extended warranty programs was $63 million,
$53 million, and $46 million in the years ended October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. Included in 2012 warranty
expense, we recognized net charges of $66 million for losses on extended warranty contracts for our 2010 emissions standard
MaxxForce Big-Bore engines. The net charges included $19 million related to contracts sold in the current year and $47 million
recognized as adjustments to pre-existing warranties. Future warranty experience, pricing of extended warranty contracts, and
external market factors, may cause us to recognize additional charges as losses on extended service contracts in future periods.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
Stock-based Compensation
We have various plans that provide for the granting of stock-based compensation to certain employees, directors, and
consultants, which are described more fully in Note 18, Stock-Based Compensation Plans. Shares are issued upon option
exercise from Common stock held in treasury.
For transactions in which we obtain employee services in exchange for an award of equity instruments, we measure the cost of
the services based on the grant date fair value of the award. We recognize the cost over the period during which an employee is
required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). Costs
related to plans with graded vesting are generally recognized using a straight-line method. Cash flows resulting from tax
benefits for deductions in excess of compensation cost recognized are included in financing cash flows.
Foreign Currency Translation
We translate the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries whose local currency is their functional currency to U.S. dollars
using period-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities and weighted average exchange rates for each period for revenues and
expenses. Differences arising from exchange rate changes are included in the Foreign currency translation adjustments
component of AOCL.
For foreign subsidiaries whose functional currency is the U.S. dollar, we remeasure non-monetary balance sheet accounts and
the related income statement accounts at historical exchange rates. Gains and losses arising from fluctuations in currency
exchange rates on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are recognized in earnings as
incurred. We recognized net foreign currency transaction gains (losses) of $(25) million, $4 million, and $7 million in 2012,
2011, and 2010, respectively, which were recorded in Other expense (income), net.
Income Taxes
We file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return for NIC and its eligible domestic subsidiaries. Our non-U.S. subsidiaries
file income tax returns in their respective local jurisdictions. We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between
the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax benefit carry
forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities at the end of each period are determined using enacted tax rates. A valuation
allowance is established or maintained when, based on currently available information, it is more likely than not that all or a
portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return only if it is more
likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the
position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit
that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
Earnings Per Share
The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of our shares of common stock
outstanding during the applicable period. The calculation for diluted earnings per share recognizes the effect of all potential
dilutive shares of common stock that were outstanding during the respective periods, unless their impact would be anti-dilutive.
Diluted earnings per share recognizes the dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were
exercised or converted into shares using the treasury stock method.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
As of November 1, 2011, we adopted new guidance on the testing of goodwill impairment that allows the option to assess
qualitative factors to determine whether performing the two step goodwill impairment assessment is necessary. Under the
option, the calculation of a reporting unit's fair value is not required to be performed unless as a result of the qualitative
assessment, it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the unit's carrying amount. The
adoption of this guidance impacts testing steps only, and therefore adoption did not have an impact on our consolidated
financial statements.
As of November 1, 2011, we adopted new guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income. Specifically, the new
guidance allows an entity to present components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement,
referred to as the statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. The new guidance
75
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity.
While the new guidance changes the presentation of comprehensive income, there are no changes to the components that are
recognized in net income or other comprehensive income under current accounting guidance. We elected to adopt the two
separate but consecutive statement presentation, and the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our
consolidated financial statements.
As of November 1, 2011, we adopted new guidance regarding disclosures about fair value measurements. The guidance
requires new disclosures related to activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. This guidance requires purchases, sales,
issuances, and settlements to be presented separately in the rollforward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Adoption
of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We have complied with the disclosure
requirements of the new guidance within Note 12, Fair Value Measurements.
On February 1, 2012, we adopted new guidance regarding accounting and disclosures related to fair value measurements. The
guidance limits the highest-and-best-use measure to non-financial assets, permits certain financial assets and liabilities with
offsetting positions in market or counter-party credit risks to be measured on a net basis, and provides guidance on the
applicability of premiums and discounts. Additionally, the guidance expands the disclosure requirements for hierarchy
classification to items not presented at fair value on the balance sheet and disclosures on Level 3 inputs by requiring
quantitative disclosure of the unobservable inputs and assumptions, as well as a description of the valuation processes and the
sensitivity of the fair value to changes in unobservable inputs. Adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on
our consolidated financial statements. We have complied with the disclosure requirements of the new guidance within Note 12,
Fair Value Measurements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
There are no recently issued accounting standards for which the Company expects a material impact on our financial
statements.
2. Restructurings and Impairments
Restructuring charges recorded are based on restructuring plans that have been committed to by management and are, in part,
based upon management's best estimates of future events. Changes to the estimates may require future adjustments to the
restructuring liabilities.
In 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized $108 million and $92 million of restructuring charges, respectively. The 2012
charges primarily consist of $73 million related to cost-reduction initiatives and $23 million related to the consolidation of our
truck and engine engineering operations as well as the relocation of our world headquarters ("Engineering Integration"). The
2011 charges primarily consisted of $58 million related to charges for the restructuring and rationalization of our North
American manufacturing operations and $29 million related to Engineering Integration. In 2010, the Company recognized $15
million of restructuring benefits primarily related to the settlement of certain contractual costs related to 2009 restructuring
activity at our IEP and ICC locations.
Cost-Reductions and Other Strategic Initiatives
In the fourth quarter of 2012, we announced actions to control spending across the Company with targeted reductions of certain
costs. In addition to the expected integration synergies resulting from ongoing efforts to consolidate our truck and engine
engineering operations, as well as the relocation of our world headquarters to Lisle, Illinois, we are focusing on continued
reductions in discretionary spending, including but not limited to reductions from efficiencies, and prioritizing or eliminating
certain programs or projects.
We continue to evaluate options to improve the efficiency and performance of our operations. Our focus is on improving our
core North American Truck, Engine and Parts performance. We are evaluating opportunities to restructure our business and
rationalize our manufacturing operations in an effort to optimize our cost structure, which could include, among other actions,
additional rationalization of our manufacturing operations and/or divesting of non-core businesses. These actions could result in
additional restructuring and other related charges during fiscal 2013, including but not limited to, impairments, employee
termination costs and charges for pension and other postretirement contractual benefits and pension curtailments, and these
charges could be significant.
Voluntary separation program and reduction in force
In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company offered the majority of our U.S.-based non-represented salaried employees the
opportunity to apply for a voluntary separation program ("VSP"). Along with the employees who chose to participate in the
VSP, we used attrition and an involuntary reduction in force to eliminate additional positions in order to meet our targeted
reductions goal. In addition to these actions in the U.S., our Brazilian operations utilized an involuntary reduction in force to
76
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
eliminate positions. As a result of these actions and charges related to the elimination of certain executive positions, the
Company recognized restructuring charges of $73 million. The restructuring charges consisted of $66 million in personnel costs
for employee termination and related benefits and $7 million of charges for pension and other postretirement contractual
termination benefits. The Company expects the restructuring charges, excluding other postretirement costs, will be paid over
the next year.
Engineering Integration
In the first quarter of 2011, the Company committed to a consolidation of the truck and engine engineering operations as well as
the relocation of our world headquarters. The Company is utilizing proceeds from an October 2010 loan agreement related to
tax exempt bonds to finance the relocation of the Company’s world headquarters and engineering center, the expansion of an
existing warehouse facility, and the development of certain industrial facilities to assist with the consolidation of certain
operations. In the first quarter of 2011, the Company finalized the purchase of the property and buildings for the consolidation
of the truck and engine engineering operations, as well as the relocation of our world headquarters.
In the fourth quarter of 2010, our United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America ("UAW")
represented employees ratified a new four-year labor agreement that replaced the prior contract that expired October 1, 2010.
The new contract allows the Company additional flexibility in manufacturing decisions and includes provisions for the wind-
down of UAW positions at our Fort Wayne facility. As a result of the contract ratification and planned wind-down of UAW
positions at our Fort Wayne facility, the Truck segment recognized $9 million of restructuring charges in the fourth quarter of
2010. The restructuring charges consisted of $5 million in personnel costs for employee termination and related benefits and $4
million of charges for pension and other postretirement contractual termination benefits.
In the first quarter of 2011, the Company committed to a plan to wind-down and transfer certain operations at the Fort Wayne
facility. As a result of the restructuring activities, the Truck segment has recognized $34 million of restructuring charges to date,
of which $5 million was recognized during the year ended October 31, 2012, and $29 million was recognized during the year
ended October 31, 2011. To date, the restructuring charges consist of $12 million in personnel costs for employee termination
and related benefits, $4 million of charges for pension and other postretirement contractual termination benefits, and $18
million of employee relocation costs.
In the second quarter of 2012, the Company vacated the premises of its former world headquarters in Warrenville, Illinois and
recorded a charge of $16 million, consisting of $19 million for the recognition of the fair value of the lease vacancy obligation,
partially offset by $3 million for the reversal of deferred rent expense. This charge was recorded in Corporate and recognized in
Restructuring charges. The cash payments associated with the lease vacancy obligation are expected to be completed by the end
of 2016.
North American Manufacturing Restructuring Activities and Impairments of Intangible Assets
The Company continues to evaluate opportunities to restructure and rationalize its manufacturing operations in an effort to
optimize the cost structure. In the third quarter of 2011, the Company committed to plans for the restructuring of certain North
American manufacturing operations, including the closure of its Chatham, Ontario heavy truck plant and actions related to
Workhorse Custom Chassis ("WCC") and Monaco RV ("Monaco") recreational vehicles operations (collectively "Custom
Products"). In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company announced its plan to cease operations and close its Garland, Texas
truck manufacturing operations (the "Garland Facility") in the first half of 2013.
Chatham restructuring activities and impairment of property and equipment
In the third quarter of 2011, the Company committed to close its Chatham, Ontario heavy truck plant, which had been idled
since June 2009 due to an inability to reach a collective bargaining agreement with the Canadian Auto Workers ("CAW").
Under the Company's flexible manufacturing strategy, products previously built in Chatham were transitioned to other assembly
plants in North America. The commitment to close the plant was also driven by economic, industry, and operational conditions
that rendered the plant uncompetitive. As a result of the restructuring activities, the Truck segment has recognized $50 million
of restructuring charges since these actions were commenced, substantially all of which were recognized during the third
quarter of 2011. Restructuring charges to date consist of $8 million in personnel costs for employee termination and related
benefits, $34 million of charges for pension and other postretirement statutory and contractual termination benefits and related
charges, and $8 million of other costs. Ultimate pension and postretirement costs and termination benefits are subject to
employee negotiation and acceptance rates. We anticipate additional charges of $30 million to $70 million in future periods. We
expect the restructuring charges, excluding pension and other postretirement costs, will be paid over the next year.
In the third quarter of 2011, the Truck segment recognized $8 million of charges for impairments of property and equipment at
our Chatham facility. The closure of the facility permanently eliminated future operating cash flows associated with that
property and equipment and its carrying values were determined to not be fully recoverable. We utilized the cost approach and
77
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
market approach to determine the fair value of certain assets within the asset group. The impairment charges reflect the impact
of the restructuring activities and closure of the Chatham facility.
Custom Products restructuring activities and impairment of intangible assets
In the third quarter of 2011, the Company committed to a restructuring plan of Custom Products, including the closure of the
Union City, Indiana chassis facility and the wind-down and transfer of certain operations at the RV motor coach plant in
Coburg, Oregon. In the second quarter of 2012, the Company decided to discontinue accepting orders for its WCC business,
and in the fourth quarter of 2012, completed a series of transactions that resulted in ceasing production of the WCC operations.
As a result of these restructuring activities relating to Custom Products, the Truck segment recognized $11 million of
restructuring charges, substantially all of which were recognized in 2011. To date, the restructuring charges consisted of $7
million in personnel costs for employee termination and related benefits, $2 million of charges due to a curtailment of other
postretirement employee benefit plan and postretirement contractual termination benefits and $2 million of other costs. The
Company expects the remaining restructuring charges, excluding other postretirement costs, will be paid in 2013.
In the third quarter of 2011, the Truck segment recognized $51 million of charges for impairments of intangible assets,
primarily customer relationships and trade names, associated with the WCC asset group. The asset group was reviewed for
recoverability by comparing the carrying value to estimated future undiscounted cash flows and those carrying values were
determined to not be fully recoverable. We utilized the income and market approaches to determine the fair value of the asset
group. The impairment charges for the asset group reflected market deterioration and reduction in demand below previously
anticipated levels.
As a result of the decision in the second quarter of 2012 to idle the WCC business, the WCC asset group was again reviewed in
the second quarter of 2012 for recoverability and determined not to be recoverable. We determined that the remaining intangible
asset balances were fully impaired, and the Truck segment recognized asset impairment charges of $28 million. In addition, the
Parts segment recognized a charge of $10 million for the impairment of certain intangible assets of the parts distribution
operations related to the WCC business.
Garland plant closure
In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company committed to cease operations and close its Garland Facility. Beginning in early
2013, the Company will transition truck volumes being produced at the Garland Facility to other North America operations that
produce similar models.
In the fourth quarter of 2012 as a result of the planned closure of the Garland Facility, the Truck segment has recognized $4
million of restructuring charges, consisting of charges related to employee separation benefits. We anticipate additional charges
of $30 million to $50 million in 2013. We expect the restructuring charges relating to employee separation benefits will be paid
over the next year.

3. Finance Receivables
Finance receivables are receivables of our financial services operations, which generally can be repaid without penalty prior to
contractual maturity. Finance receivables generally consist of retail and wholesale accounts and retail and wholesale notes.
Total finance receivables reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets are net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Total
assets of our financial services operations net of intercompany balances are $2.6 billion and $3.5 billion as of October 31, 2012
and October 31, 2011, respectively. Included in total assets are finance receivables of $2.1 billion and $2.9 billion as of
October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, respectively. We have two portfolio segments of finance receivables based on the type
of financing inherent to each portfolio. The retail portfolio segment represents loans or leases to end-users for the purchase or
lease of vehicles. The wholesale portfolio segment represents loans to dealers to finance their inventory.
Our finance receivables by major classification are as follows:

Securitizations
Our Financial Services segment transfers wholesale notes, retail accounts receivable, retail notes, finance leases, and operating
leases through SPEs, which generally are only permitted to purchase these assets, issue asset-backed securities, and make
payments on the securities. In addition to servicing receivables, our continued involvement in the SPEs includes an economic
interest in the transferred receivables and, in some cases, managing exposure to interest rates using interest rate swaps and
interest rate caps. Effective November 1, 2010, none of these transactions qualified for sale accounting treatment. As a result,
the transferred finance receivables are included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets and the related interest earned is included
in Finance revenues. For sales that previously qualified for off-balance sheet treatment, an initial gain (loss) was recorded at the
time of the sale while servicing fees and excess spread income were recorded as revenue when earned over the life of the
finance receivables.
We received net proceeds of $4.6 billion, $4.5 billion, and $1.5 billion from securitizations of finance receivables accounted for
as secured borrowings in 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.
Effective July 31, 2010, our Financial Services segment amended the wholesale trust agreement with the Navistar Financial
Dealer Note Master Trust ("Master Trust"). The amendment disqualified the Master Trust as a QSPE and therefore required the
79
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
Master Trust to be evaluated for consolidation as a VIE. As we are the primary beneficiary of the Master Trust, the Master
Trust’s assets and liabilities are consolidated into the assets and liabilities of the Company.

Unutilized funding related to the variable funding notes was $450 million and $170 million at October 31, 2012 and
October 31, 2011, respectively.
In November 2011, NFC completed the sale of $224 million of two-year investor notes within the wholesale note trust funding
facility. In January 2012 and October 2012, investor notes of $250 million and $350 million, respectively, were paid off upon
maturity using collections within the wholesale note trust. In August 2012, the variable funding note facility was renewed with
a maturity of August 2013, and increased from $500 million to $750 million.
Our Financial Services segment securitizes eligible retail accounts receivable through TRAC, a consolidated SPE. In March
2012, the TRAC funding was renewed with a $125 million facility. The facility is secured by $103 million of retail accounts

4. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
We have two portfolio segments of finance receivables based on the type of financing inherent to each portfolio segment. The
retail portfolio segment represents loans or leases to end-users for the purchase or lease of vehicles. The wholesale portfolio
segment represents loans to dealers to finance their inventory. Each portfolio segment consists of one class of receivable based
on: (i) initial measurement attributes of the receivables, and (ii) the assessment and monitoring of risk and performance of the
receivables.
The activity related to our allowance for doubtful accounts for our retail portfolio segment, wholesale portfolio segment, and
trade and other receivables is summarized as follows:

$24 million respectively. At October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, liabilities related to capital expenditures that are included in
accounts payable were $29 million, $22 million, and $14 million, respectively.
Leases
We lease certain land, buildings, and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases and capital leases expiring at various
dates through 2024. Operating leases generally have 1 to 20 year terms, with one or more renewal options, with terms to be
negotiated at the time of renewal. Various leases include provisions for rent escalation to recognize increased operating costs or
require us to pay certain maintenance and utility costs. Our rent expense for the years ended October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010
was $63 million, $54 million, and $57 million, respectively. Rental income from subleases was $4 million, for each of the years
ended October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010.
Future minimum lease payments at October 31, 2012, for those leases having an initial or remaining non-cancelable lease term

We have a number of asset retirement obligations in connection with certain owned and leased locations, leasehold
improvements, and sale and leaseback arrangements. Certain of our production facilities contain asbestos that would have to be
removed if such facilities were to be demolished or undergo a major renovation. The fair value of the conditional asset
retirement obligations as of the balance sheet date has been determined to be immaterial. Asset retirement obligations relating to
the cost of removing improvements to leased facilities or returning leased equipment at the end of the associated agreements are
not material.

7. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, Net
For reporting units with goodwill, we perform a goodwill impairment tests on an annual basis, or more frequently, if
circumstances change or an event occurs that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its
carrying amount. As part of our impairment analysis for these reporting units, we elected to perform a qualitative assessment or
we determined the fair value of the reporting unit based on estimates of its future cash flows. During the year ended October 31,
2012, we performed our annual goodwill impairment test and determined that there has been no impairment of goodwill. In
2011, we changed the date of our annual goodwill impairment test from October 31st to August 1st. Changes in the carrying
amount of goodwill for each operating segment are as follows:

8. Investments in Non-consolidated Affiliates
Investments in non-consolidated affiliates is comprised of our interests in partially-owned affiliates of which our ownership
percentages range from 10% to 50%. We do not control these affiliates, but have the ability to exercise significant influence
over their operating and financial policies. We account for them using the equity method of accounting. We made new and
incremental investments in these non-consolidated affiliates of $39 million and $65 million during 2012 and 2011, respectively.
The Company is currently evaluating its portfolio of assets to validate their strategic and financial fit. To allow us to increase
our focus on our North American core businesses, we are evaluating product lines, businesses, and engineering programs that
fall outside of our core businesses. We are using Return on Invested Capital ("ROIC") methodology, combined with an
assessment of the strategic fit to our core businesses, to identify areas that are under-performing. For those areas under-
performing, we are evaluating whether to fix, divest or close and expect to realize incremental benefits from these actions in the
near future.

October 31:

In September 2009, NC2 was established as a joint venture with Caterpillar to develop, manufacture, and distribute conventional
and cab-over truck designs to serve the global commercial truck market. In September 2011, we restructured our relationship
with Caterpillar resulting in the termination of the joint venture agreement and the Company subsequently acquired all of
Caterpillar's ownership interest in NC2, thereby increasing the Company's equity interest in NC2 from 50% to 100%. The effects
of accounting for this acquisition were not material. Prior to the termination of our NC2 joint venture agreement with
Caterpillar, our 50% interest in NC2 was included in Investments in non-consolidated affiliates. Equity in loss of non-
consolidated affiliates included losses of $39 million and $36 million related to NC2 for the years ended October 31, 2011 and
2010. We have consolidated the operating results of NC2 within our Truck segment since September 30, 2011.
Presented below is summarized financial information representing 100% of NC2, which was considered a significant non-
consolidated affiliate in 2011 and 2010, prior to increasing the equity interest in September 2011.

Senior Secured Term Loan Credit Facility
In August 2012, NIC and Navistar, Inc. signed a definitive credit agreement relating to a senior secured, term loan credit facility
in an aggregate principal amount of $1 billion (the "Term Loan Credit Facility"). The maturity date of the Term Loan Credit
Facility is July 16, 2014, provided that if, prior to such date, in accordance with the terms of the Company's 3.0% Senior
Subordinated Convertible Notes indenture (the "Convertible Notes"), either (i) the Convertible Notes (other than Convertible
Notes in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding $100 million) shall have been redeemed or repurchased and canceled or
defeased and, pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Notes indenture, shall have ceased to be outstanding, or (ii) the Company
shall have irrevocably deposited with the Trustee (as defined in the Convertible Notes indenture) in trust for payment to the
Holders (as defined in the Convertible Notes indenture), or irrevocably delivered to such Holders, as applicable, cash funds and/
or (in the case of conversion) shares of Common Stock (as defined in the Convertible Notes indenture) sufficient to pay all
amounts due or deliverable on all Convertible Notes (other than Convertible Notes in an aggregate principal amount not
exceeding $100 million), then the Term Loan Credit Facility will mature on August 17, 2017.
The Term Loan Credit Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in certain assets of NIC, Navistar, Inc., and fifteen
of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, and contains customary provisions for financings of this type, including, without
limitation, representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. Generally, if an event of
default occurs and is not cured within any specified grace period, the administrative agent, at the request of (or with the consent
of) the lenders holding not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding term loans, may declare the term loan to
be due and payable immediately. Borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Facility accrue interest at a rate equal to a base rate
plus a spread of 450 basis points or a Eurodollar rate plus a spread of 550 basis points with a LIBOR floor of 150 basis points.
In August 2012, Navistar, Inc. borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $1 billion under the Term Loan Credit Facility. A
portion of the proceeds were used to repay all outstanding loans under Navistar, Inc.'s existing five-year inventory secured,
asset-based revolving senior line of credit facility entered into in October 2011 (the "Asset-Based Credit Facility") and to pay
certain fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Term Loan Credit Facility. The Term Loan Credit Facility agreement
requires quarterly amortization payments of $2.5 million, with the balance due at maturity.

Senior Notes
In October 2009, we completed the sale of $1 billion aggregate principal amount of our 8.25% Senior Notes due 2021 (the
"Senior Notes"). Interest is payable on May 1 and November 1 of each year until the maturity date of November 1, 2021. The
Company received net proceeds of approximately $947 million, net of offering discount of $37 million and underwriter fees of
$16 million. The discount and debt issue costs are being amortized to Interest expense over the life of the Senior Notes for an
effective rate of 8.96%, and the debt issue costs are recorded in Other noncurrent assets. The proceeds, in conjunction with the
proceeds of the concurrent 3.00% Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes due 2014 (the "Convertible Notes") discussed below,
were used to repay all amounts outstanding under the prior $1.5 billion 5-year term loan facility and synthetic revolving
facility, as well as certain fees incurred in connection therewith. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the
Company.
The Senior Notes contain an optional redemption feature allowing the Company at any time prior to November 1, 2012 to
redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes using proceeds of certain public equity offerings at a
redemption price of 108.25% of the principal amount of the notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. On or after
November 1, 2014, the Company can redeem all or part of the Senior Notes during the twelve-month period beginning on
November 1, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and thereafter at a redemption price equal to 104.125%, 102.75%, 101.375%, and 100%,
respectively, of the principal amount of the notes redeemed.
In addition, not more than once during each twelve-month period ending on November 1, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014,
the Company may redeem up to $50 million in principal amount of the notes in each such twelve-month period, at a redemption
price equal to 103% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The Company
exercised this early redemption feature for a total principal amount of $100 million, by redeeming $50 million of Senior Notes
on November 1, 2011 and an additional $50 million of Senior Notes on November 2, 2011. In the first quarter of 2012, the
Company recorded $8 million of charges, relating to the early redemption premium and write-off of related discount and debt
issuance costs.
The Company may also redeem the Senior Notes at its election in whole or part at any time prior to November 1, 2014 at a
redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus the applicable premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest,
to the redemption date. The applicable premium is defined as the greater of: 1% of the principal amount and the excess, if any,
of (i) the present value as of such date of redemption of (A) the redemption price of such note on November 1, 2014, plus
(B) all required interest payments due on such note through November 1, 2014, computed using a discount rate equal to the
Treasury Rate (as defined in the debt agreement), plus 50 basis points over (ii) the then-outstanding principal of such note.
Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes
In October 2009, we also completed the sale of $570 million aggregate principal amount of our Convertible Notes, including
over-allotment options. Interest is payable on April 15 and October 15 of each year until the maturity date of October 15, 2014.
The Company received net proceeds of approximately $553 million, net of $17 million of underwriter fees. The debt issue costs
are recorded in Other noncurrent assets and are being amortized to Interest expense over the life of the Convertible Notes. The
Convertible Notes are senior subordinated unsecured obligations of the Company.
Holders may convert the Convertible Notes into common stock of the Company at any time on or after April 15, 2014. Holders
may also convert the Convertible Notes at their option prior to April 15, 2014, under the following circumstances: (i) during
any fiscal quarter commencing after January 31, 2010, if the last reported sale price of the common stock for at least 20 trading
days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the preceding
fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable conversion price on each such trading day; (ii) during the five
business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the "Measurement Period") in which the trading price per
$1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of that Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of the last
reported sale price of the common stock and the applicable conversion rate on each such trading day; or (iii) upon the
occurrence of specified corporate events, as more fully described in the Convertible Notes indenture. The conversion rate will
initially be 19.891 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes (equivalent to an initial
conversion price of approximately $50.27 per share of common stock). The conversion rate may be adjusted for anti-dilution
provisions and the conversion price may be decreased by the Board of Directors to the extent permitted by law and listing
requirements.
The Convertible Notes can be settled in common stock, cash, or a combination of common stock and cash. Upon conversion,
the Company will satisfy its conversion obligations by delivering, at its election, shares of common stock (plus cash in lieu of
fractional shares), cash, or any combination of cash and shares of common stock. If the Company elects to settle in cash or a
88
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
combination of cash and shares, the amounts due upon conversion will be based on a daily conversion value calculated on a
proportionate basis for each trading day in a 40 trading-day observation period. If a holder converts its Convertible Notes on or
after April 15, 2014, and the Company elects physical settlement as described above, the holder will not receive the shares of
common stock into which the Convertible Notes are convertible until after the expiration of the observation period described
above, even though the number of shares the holder will receive upon settlement will not change. It is our policy to settle the
principal and accrued interest on the Convertible Notes with cash. Subject to certain exceptions, holders may require the
Company to repurchase, for cash, all or part of the Convertible Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the
Convertible Notes being repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest.
When the above described circumstances occur and the Convertible Notes are eligible for conversion prior to April 15, 2014 at
the option of the Holders, we reclassify: (i) the portion of the Convertible Notes attributable to the conversion feature, which
have not yet been accreted to its face value, from Additional paid in capital to Convertible debt, and (ii) the carrying value of
the Convertible Notes from Long-term debt to Notes payable and current maturities of long-term debt on our Consolidated
Balance Sheets as of that period end. In addition, in cases where holders decide to convert prior to the maturity date, the
Company immediately writes off the proportionate amount of remaining debt issue costs. If in subsequent periods these
circumstances do not occur and the Convertible Notes are not eligible for early conversion, the portion of the Convertible Notes
attributable to the conversion feature are reclassified to Long-term debt and Additional paid in capital, respectively, on our
Consolidated Balance Sheet. As the determination of whether the Holders may convert the Convertible Notes early is
performed on a quarterly basis, the Convertible Notes may or may not meet the contingent conversion thresholds and therefore
may be reclassified in future periods. Based upon the closing price of our common stock for the prescribed measurement period
during the three months ended April 30, 2011, the contingent conversion threshold on the Convertible Notes was exceeded. As a
result, the Convertible Notes were convertible at the option of any holder that provided a valid conversion notice prior to
July 31, 2011. We received conversion notices from holders of an immaterial amount of the Convertible Notes during the
conversion period. Based upon the closing price of our common stock for the prescribed measurement periods during
subsequent periods, the contingent conversion thresholds on the Convertible Notes were not exceeded.
In connection with the sale of the Convertible Notes, the Company purchased call options for $125 million. The call options
cover 11,337,870 shares of common stock, subject to adjustments, at an exercise price of $50.27. The call options are intended
to minimize share dilution associated with the Convertible Notes. In addition, in connection with the sale of the Convertible
Notes, the Company also entered into separate warrant transactions whereby, the Company sold warrants for $87 million to
purchase in the aggregate 11,337,870 shares of common stock, subject to adjustments, at an exercise price of $60.14 per share
of common stock. As the call options and warrants are indexed to our common stock, we recognized them in permanent equity
in Additional paid in capital, and will not recognize subsequent changes in fair value as long as the instruments remain
classified as equity. As a result of the conversion notices received prior to July 31, 2011, an immaterial number of call options
were exercised by the Company to match the number of shares covered by the conversion notices received. The number of
warrants outstanding remains unchanged as none were exercised.
Debt of Majority-owned Dealerships
Our majority-owned dealerships incur debt to finance their inventories, property, and equipment. The various dealership debt
instruments have interest rates that range from 4.9% to 6.8% and maturities that extend to 2017.
Financing Arrangements and Capital Lease Obligations
Included in our financing arrangements and capital lease obligations are financing arrangements of $79 million and $113
million as of October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These arrangements involve the sale and leaseback of manufacturing
equipment considered integral equipment. Accordingly, these arrangements are accounted for as financings. The two remaining
arrangements outstanding at October 31, 2012 had outstanding balances of $37 million and $42 million and mature in May of
2014 and March of 2013, respectively. In addition, the amount of financing arrangements and capital lease obligations include
$4 million and $5 million of capital leases for real estate and equipment as of October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011,
respectively.
In January 2012, the Company began leasing an existing manufacturing facility in Cherokee, Alabama and purchased certain
machinery and equipment within that facility. In relation to the machinery and equipment, the Company entered into a $40
million promissory note with the lessor. This amount is payable in monthly installments over a ten-year term, in conjunction
with the lease of the facility. The Company recorded the machinery and equipment, and the associated liability, at the relative
fair value of $58 million.

Loan Agreement related to the Tax Exempt Bonds
In October 2010, we benefited from the issuance of certain tax-exempt bond financings, of which: (i) the Illinois Finance
Authority issued and sold $135 million aggregate principal amount of Recovery Zone Facility Revenue Bonds due October 15,
2040, and (ii) The County of Cook, Illinois issued and sold $90 million aggregate principal amount of Recovery Zone Facility
Revenue Bonds also due October 15, 2040 (collectively the "Tax Exempt Bonds"). The Tax Exempt Bonds were issued
pursuant to separate, but substantially identical, indentures of trust dated as of October 1, 2010. The proceeds of the Tax
Exempt Bonds were loaned by each issuer to the Company pursuant to separate, but substantially identical, loan agreements
dated as of October 1, 2010. The proceeds from the issuance of the Tax Exempt Bonds are restricted, and must be used
substantially for capital expenditures related to financing the relocation of the Company's headquarters, the expansion of an
existing warehouse facility, and the development of certain industrial and testing facilities, together with related improvements
and equipment (the "Projects"). The payment of principal and interest on the Tax Exempt Bonds are guaranteed under separate,
but substantially identical, bond guarantees issued by Navistar, Inc. The Tax Exempt Bonds are special, limited obligations of
each issuer, payable out of the revenues and income derived under the related loan agreements and related guarantees. The Tax
Exempt Bonds bear interest at the fixed rate of 6.5% per annum, payable each April 15 and October 15, commencing April 15,
2011. Beginning on October 15, 2020, the Tax Exempt Bonds are subject to optional redemption at the direction of the
Company, in whole or in part, at the redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest, if
any, to the redemption date. The funds received from the issuance of the Tax Exempt Bonds were deposited directly into trust
accounts by the bonding authority at the time of issuance, and will be remitted to the Company on a reimbursement basis as we
make qualified capital expenditures related to the Projects. As the Company does not have the ability to use these funds for
general operating purposes, they are classified as Other noncurrent assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, as
the Company did not receive cash proceeds upon the closing of the Tax Exempt Bonds, there was no impact on the
Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended October 31, 2010. As the Company makes qualifying capital
expenditures and is reimbursed by the Trust, the Company reports the corresponding amounts as capital expenditures and
proceeds from issuance of debt within the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. In November 2010, we finalized the purchase
of the property and buildings that we developed into our new world headquarters site. As of October 31, 2012, reimbursement
was received for $170 million of the $225 million under the Tax Exempt Bonds.
Promissory Note
In September 2011, Navistar, Inc. entered into a $40 million floating rate promissory note with Caterpillar (the "Promissory
Note"), under which the principal amount will be repaid over a 4 year term in 16 quarterly installments. The floating interest
rate for the Promissory Note will be computed based on LIBOR plus 2.75% over the term of the note.
Amended and Restated Asset-Based Credit Facility
In October 2011, Navistar, Inc. and various other U.S. subsidiaries signed a definitive loan agreement relating to the Asset-
Based Credit Facility, containing an aggregate principal amount of $355 million. In November 2011, the Company borrowed
$100 million under the Asset-Based Credit Facility and, in June 2012, borrowed an additional $138 million. In August 2012, we
used a portion of the proceeds from the Term Loan Credit Facility to repay all borrowings under the Asset-Based Credit Facility
and Navistar, Inc. entered into an amended and restated asset-based credit agreement in an aggregate principal amount of $175
million (the "Amended and Restated Asset-Based Credit Facility") providing for a term of up to four years and nine months.
Following the amendment and restatement of the Asset-Based Credit Facility, each of the subsidiaries was released from its
obligations under the Asset-Based Credit Facility. The Amended Asset-Based Credit Facility is secured by a first priority
security interest in Navistar, Inc.'s aftermarket parts inventory that is stored at certain parts distribution centers, storage facilities
and third-party processor or logistics provider locations. The Amended Asset-Based Credit Facility contains customary
provisions for financings of this type, including, without limitation, representations and warranties, affirmative and negative
covenants and events of default. All borrowings under the Amended Asset-Based Credit Facility accrue interest at a rate equal
to a base rate or an adjusted LIBOR rate plus a spread. The spread, which will be based on an availability-based measure,
ranges from 175 basis points to 225 basis points for Base Rate borrowings and 275 basis points to 325 basis points for LIBOR
borrowings. The initial LIBOR spread is 275 basis points. As of October 31, 2012, we had no borrowings under the Amended
Asset-Based Credit Facility.

Financial Services Operations
Asset-backed Debt
In June 2012, NFC's wholly-owned subsidiary Navistar Financial Retail Receivables Corporation ("NFRRC") issued $502
million of borrowings secured by retail asset-backed securities that matures in January 2019. Proceeds were used to settle the
borrowings secured by retail asset-backed securities of $372 million issued in May 2012, and to settle a portion of NFC's bank
credit facility revolving line of credit. The retail asset-backed securities issued in May 2012 were used to settle all other
outstanding retail securitizations under NFRRC.
TRAC, our consolidated SPE, utilizes a $125 million funding facility arrangement that provided for the funding of eligible
retail accounts receivables. Subsequent to the adoption of new accounting guidance on accounting for transfers of financial
assets, transfers of finance receivables from our Financial Services segment to the TRAC funding facility completed prior to
November 1, 2010 retained their sale accounting treatment while transfers of finance receivables subsequent to November 1,
2010 no longer receive sale accounting treatment. Accordingly, borrowings secured by the transferred receivables are included
in Notes payable and current maturities of long-term debt within our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of October 31, 2012. In
March 2012, the funding facility was renewed through March 2013 and increased from $100 million.
Effective July 31, 2010, the terms of the wholesale trust agreement were amended to allow NFC, as transferor, an element of
control over the transferred receivables and control over eligibility of receivables available for transfer. This amendment
disqualifies the Master Trust as a QSPE and therefore disqualifies transfers of receivables to the Master Trust from sale
accounting treatment. In July 2012, NFC extended the maturity date of its $500 million dealer floor plan VFN facility from July
2012 to October 2012. In August 2012, the VFN facility was renewed for $750 million with a maturity date of August 2013.
The majority of asset-backed debt is issued by consolidated SPEs and is payable out of collections on the finance receivables
sold to the SPEs. This debt is the legal obligation of the SPEs and not NFC. The balance outstanding was $1.1 billion and $1.7
billion as of October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The carrying amount of the retail notes, wholesale notes, and finance
leases used as collateral was $1.3 billion and $1.9 billion as of October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Bank Revolvers and Commercial Paper
In December 2011, NFC refinanced its 2009 bank credit facility with a 5-year $840 million facility consisting of a $340 million
term loan and a $500 million revolving line of credit, of which our Mexican finance subsidiary may borrow up to $200 million.
The new facility is subject to customary operational and financial covenants. Quarterly principal payments on the term portion
are $4 million for the first eight quarters and $9 million for the next eleven quarters, with the balance due at maturity.
We borrow funds denominated in U.S. dollars and Mexican pesos to be used for investment in our Mexican financial services
operations. As of October 31, 2012, borrowings outstanding under these arrangements were $414 million, of which 20% is
denominated in dollars and 80% in pesos. As of October 31, 2011, borrowings outstanding under these arrangements were $348
million, of which 21% is denominated in dollars and 79% in pesos. The interest rates on the dollar-denominated debt are at a
negotiated fixed rate or at a variable rate based on LIBOR, and the interest rates on peso-denominated debt are based on the
Interbank Interest Equilibrium Rate. As of October 31, 2012 and 2011, these borrowings included commercial paper of $31
million and $70 million, respectively. The remaining borrowings are effectively secured by the Mexican finance receivables.
In August 2012, our Mexican financial services affiliate Navistar Financial, S.A. de C.V., SOFOM, E.N.R., signed an
agreement for a five-year, $95 million funding facility, which will be used to support trade receivables for the sale of our trucks
and buses manufactured in Mexico and exported to Colombian dealers.
Borrowings Secured by Operating and Finance Leases
NFC enters into secured borrowing agreements involving vehicles subject to operating and finance leases with retail customers.
The balances are classified under financial services operations debt as borrowings secured by leases. In connection with the
securitizations and secured borrowing agreements of certain of its leasing portfolio assets, NFC and its subsidiary, Navistar
Leasing Services Corporation ("NLSC"), have established Navistar Leasing Company ("NLC"), a Delaware business trust.
NLC holds legal title to leased vehicles and is the lessor on substantially all leases originated by NFC. NLSC owns beneficial
interests in the titles held by NLC and has transferred other beneficial interests issued by NLC to purchasers under secured
borrowing agreements and securitizations. Neither the beneficial interests held by purchasers under secured borrowing
agreements or the assets represented thereby, nor legal interest in any assets of NLC, are available to NLSC, NFC, or its
creditors. The balance of the secured borrowings issued by NLC totaled $4 million and $6 million as of October 31, 2012 and
2011, respectively.
91
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
International Truck Leasing Corporation ("ITLC"), a special purpose, wholly-owned subsidiary of NFC, provides NFC with
another entity to obtain borrowings secured by leases. The balances are classified under financial services operations debt as
borrowings secured by leases. ITLC's assets are available to satisfy its creditors' claims prior to such assets becoming available
for ITLC's use or to NFC or affiliated companies. The balance of these secured borrowings issued by ITLC totaled $74 million
and $64 million as of October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The carrying amount of the finance and operating leases used as
collateral was $86 million and $70 million as of October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. ITLC does not have any unsecured
debt.

Debt and Lease Covenants
We have certain public and private debt agreements, including the indenture for our Senior Notes, the loan agreements for the
Tax Exempt Bonds, the Term Loan Credit Facility, and the Amended and Restated Asset-Based Credit Facility, which limit our
ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, buy back our stock, and take other actions. The terms of our Convertible
Notes do not contain covenants that could limit the amount of debt we may issue, or restrict us from paying dividends or
repurchasing our other securities. However, the Convertible Notes indenture defines circumstances under which the Company
would be required to repurchase the Convertible Notes and includes limitations on consolidation, merger, and sale of the
Company's assets. As of October 31, 2012, we were in compliance with these covenants.
We are also required under certain agreements with public and private lenders of NFC to ensure that NFC and its subsidiaries
maintain their income before interest expense and income taxes at not less than 125% of their total interest expense. Under
these agreements, if NFC's consolidated income, including capital contributions made by NIC or Navistar, Inc., before interest
expense and income taxes is less than 125% of its interest expense ("fixed charge coverage ratio"), NIC or Navistar, Inc. must
make payments to NFC to achieve the required ratio. During the years ended October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, no such
payments were made.
Our Mexican financial services operations also have debt covenants, which require the maintenance of certain financial ratios.
As of October 31, 2012, we were in compliance with those covenants.

Generally, the pension plans are non-contributory. Our policy is to fund the pension plans in accordance with applicable
U.S. and Canadian government regulations and to make additional contributions from time to time. As of October 31, 2012, we
have met all regulatory funding requirements. In 2012, we contributed $157 million to our pension plans to meet regulatory
funding requirements. In July 2012, the MAP-21 Act was signed into law, impacting the minimum funding requirements for
pension plans, but not otherwise impacting our accounting for pension benefits. As a result of the MAP-21 Act, we lowered our
funding expectations. We expect to contribute $166 million to our pension plans during 2013.
We primarily fund other post-employment benefit ("OPEB") obligations, such as retiree medical, in accordance with the 1993
Settlement Agreement, which requires us to fund a portion of the plans' annual service cost. In 2012, we contributed $19
million to our OPEB plans to meet legal funding requirements. We expect to contribute $2 million to our OPEB plans during
2013.
We have certain unfunded pension plans, under which we make payments directly to employees. Benefit payments of $13
million in 2012 and $14 million in 2011 are included within the amount of "Benefits paid" in the "Change in benefit obligation"
section above, but are not included in the "Change in plan assets" section, because the payments are made directly by us and not
by separate trusts that are used in the funding of our other pension plans.
We also have certain OPEB benefits that are paid from Company assets (instead of trust assets). Payments from Company
assets, net of participant contributions and subsidy receipts, result in differences between benefits paid as presented under
"Change in benefit obligation" and "Change in plan assets" of $75 million for 2012 and $37 million for 2011.

In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company recognized a charge of $7 million due to plan curtailments and contractual
termination charges related to the VSP and additional salaried employee terminations. See Note 2, Restructurings and
Impairments, for more information on cost-reduction and restructuring activities.
As discussed in Note 2, Restructuring and Impairments, the Company committed to close its Chatham, Ontario plant. During
2011, the plant closure resulted in a pension curtailment gain of $8 million that was recognized as a component of AOCI and
contractual termination charges of $35 million. The closure also resulted in an OPEB charge of $13 million during the third
quarter of 2011 representing a plan curtailment and related contractual termination benefits.
The Company also incurred an OPEB charge of $2 million during 2011 due to an OPEB plan curtailment and contractual
termination charges related to the closure of the WCC Union City plant.
During 2011, the Company incurred a charge of $5 million due to a plan curtailment and contractual termination benefits
related to restructuring activities at the Fort Wayne facility, as discussed in Note 2, Restructurings and Impairments.
On October 30, 2010, our UAW represented employees ratified a new four-year labor agreement that replaced the prior contract
that expired October 1, 2010. As a result of the contract ratification, the Company recognized $3 million of contractual
termination benefits for pension in 2010.
During 2010, the Company made an administrative change to the prescription drug program under the OPEB plan affecting
plan participants who are Medicare eligible. The Company enrolled Medicare eligible plan participants who did not opt out into
a Medicare Part D Plan. The OPEB plan supplemented the coverage provided by the Medicare Part D Plan. As discussed in
Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies, the UAW filed a motion (the "Shy Motion") contesting our ability to implement this
administrative change. The Court ruled on the Shy Motion in the second quarter of 2011 sustaining the Plaintiffs' argument that
the Company did not have the authority to unilaterally substitute Medicare Part D for the prescription drug benefit that the
Plaintiffs had been receiving under the 1993 Settlement Agreement. In the fourth quarter of 2011, the Court ordered relief for
95
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
the Plaintiffs in the form of reimbursement of premiums and certain prescription drug expenses paid by participants since the
plan change on July 1, 2010. The Company increased postretirement benefits expense by $15 million in connection with this
order. Additionally, the Court ordered a reinstatement of the prior benefits that existed before the change on July 1, 2010 that
resulted in a plan re-measurement at September 30, 2011. The impact of reinstating the prior benefits included the reversal of
the remaining prior service credit of $302 million associated with the July 2010 plan change which had been previously
recorded in AOCL and an additional increase in accumulated postretirement benefit obligation ("APBO") of $200 million that
was accounted for as an actuarial loss in AOCL. The effect of the re-measurement increased postretirement benefits expense by
$9 million in the fourth quarter of 2011.
Also during 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 ("PPACA") and the Health Care and Education
Reconciliation Act of 2010 ("HCERA"), which amends certain aspects of the PPACA, were enacted. The impact of the PPACA
and the HCERA was estimated and included in the measurement of the OPEB obligation. As regulations regarding
implementation of the health care reform legislation are promulgated and additional guidance becomes available, our estimates
may change.
The Early Retiree Reinsurance Program ("ERRP") was created under the PPACA to provide temporary financial assistance to
health plan sponsors who provide retirement health coverage to pre-Medicare retirees. Under the terms of ERRP, $3 million in
2012 and $10 million in 2011 was collected and deposited into the retiree benefit trust and was accounted for as part of the
actual return on assets.
The estimated amounts for the defined benefit pension plans and the other postretirement benefit plans that will be amortized
from AOCL into net periodic benefit expense over the next fiscal year are as follows:

Cumulative unrecognized actuarial gains and losses for postretirement benefit plans, where substantially all of the plan
participants are inactive, are amortized over the average remaining life expectancy of the inactive plan participants. Otherwise,
cumulative gains and losses are amortized over the average remaining service period of active employees.
Plan amendments unrelated to negotiated labor contracts are amortized over the average remaining service period of active
employees or the remaining life expectancy of the inactive participants based upon the nature of the amendment and the
participants impacted. Plan amendments arising from negotiated labor contracts are amortized over the length of the contract.

(A)
In 2012 for pension benefits, the weighted average discount rate used to compute the expense for the period of November 1, 2011 through July 31, 2012
was 4.2%. Due to plan remeasurements at July 31, 2012 at a rate of 3.3%, the weighted average discount rate for the full fiscal year 2012 was 4.1%. In
2010 for health and life insurance benefits, the weighted average discount rate used to compute the expense for the period of November 1, 2009 through
March 31, 2010 was 5.5%. Due to a plan remeasurement at March 31, 2010 at a rate of 5.6%, the weighted average discount rate for the full fiscal year
2010 was 5.6%.

Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
The actuarial assumptions used to compute the net postretirement benefits expense (income) are based upon information
available as of the beginning of the year, specifically market interest rates, past experience, and our best estimate of future
economic conditions. Changes in these assumptions may impact the measurement of future benefit costs and obligations. In
computing future costs and obligations, we must make assumptions about such things as employee mortality and turnover,
expected salary and wage increases, discount rates, expected returns on plan assets, and expected future cost increases. Three of
these items have a significant impact on the level of expense recognized: (i) discount rates, (ii) expected rates of return on plan
assets, and (iii) healthcare cost trend rates.
We determine the discount rate for our U.S. pension and OPEB obligations by matching anticipated future benefit payments for
the plans to the Citigroup yield curve to establish a weighted average discount rate for each plan.
We determine our assumption as to expected return on plan assets by evaluating both historical returns as well as estimates of
future returns. Specifically, we analyze the average historical broad market returns for various periods of time over the past
100 years for equities and over a 30-year period for fixed income securities, and adjust the computed amount for any expected
changes in the long-term outlook for both the equity and fixed income markets. We consider the current asset mix as well as our
targeted asset mix when establishing the expected return on plan assets.
Health care cost trend rates have been established through a review of actual recent cost trends and projected future trends. Our
retiree medical and drug cost trend assumptions are our best estimate of expected inflationary increases to healthcare costs. Due
to the number of former employees and their beneficiaries included in our retiree population (approximately 39,000), the trend
assumptions are based upon both our specific trends and nationally expected trends.
The weighted average rate of increase in the per capita cost of postretirement health care benefits provided through U.S. plans
representing 90% of our other postretirement benefit obligation, is projected to be 9.2% in 2013 and was estimated as 10.5% for
2012. Our projections assume that the rate will decrease to 5% by the year 2018 and remain at that level each year thereafter.
The effect of changing the health care cost trend rate by one-percentage point for each future year is as follows:

The accounting guidance on fair value measurements specifies a fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of inputs
used in valuation techniques (Level 1, 2 and 3). See Note 12, Fair Value Measurements, for a discussion of the fair value
hierarchy.
The following describes the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value of the investments:
Cash and short-term investments—Valued at cost plus earnings from investments for the period, which approximates fair
market value due to the short-term duration. Cash equivalents are valued at net asset value as provided by the administrator of
the fund.
U.S. Government and agency securities—Valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the security is
traded or valued by the trustee at year-end using various pricing services of financial institutions, including Interactive Data
Corporation, Standard & Poor's and Telekurs.
Corporate debt securities—Valued by the trustee at year-end using various pricing services of financial institutions, including
Interactive Data Corporation, Standard & Poor's and Telekurs.
Common and preferred stock—Valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the security is traded.
Collective trusts, Partnerships/joint venture interests and Hedge funds—Valued at the net asset value provided by the
administrator of the fund. The net asset value is based on the value of the underlying assets owned by the fund, minus its
liabilities, divided by the number of units outstanding.

The Plans' investment strategy is based on sound investment practices that emphasize long-term investment fundamentals. The
objective of the strategy is to maximize long-term returns consistent with prudent levels of risk. In establishing the investment
strategy of the Plans, the following factors were taken into account: (i) the time horizon available for investment, (ii) the nature
of the Plan's cash flows and liabilities, and (iii) other factors that affect the Plan's risk tolerance.
The strategy is to manage the Plans to achieve fully funded status within the time horizon mandated under Pension Protection
Act of 2006 after giving effect to the Preservation of Access to Care for Medicare Beneficiaries, Pension Relief Act of 2010,
and MAP-21 with a prudent amount of risk. As part of that strategy, the Plans are invested in a diversified portfolio across a
wide variety of asset classes. This includes areas such as large and small capitalization equities, international and emerging
market equities, high quality fixed income, convertible bonds and alternative assets such as commodities, hedge fund of funds,
and private equity funds. As a result of our diversification strategies, we believe we have minimized concentrations of risk
within the investment portfolios.
99
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
In February 2012, the Plans entered into a three-year put spread collar hedge covering a majority of the Plan's assets. The hedge
will provide protection against large equity losses while allowing participation in equity gains up to a limit per annum over the
three-year term of the hedge. In addition to the asset hedge, in February 2012, the Plans entered into a three-year zero cost
swaption collar. The hedge is designed to protect plan liabilities against lower interest rates, while allowing participation in the
positive benefits that would result if interest rates rise up to a predefined level over the life of the hedge.
In line with the Plans' return objectives and risk parameters, target asset allocations, which were established following a 2009
asset liability study, are approximately 55% equity investments, 30% fixed income investments, 10% alternative investments
(commodities, hedge funds and private equity), and 5% cash.
All assets are actively managed by external investment managers. Each investment manager is expected to prudently manage
the assets in a manner consistent with the investment objectives, guidelines, and constraints outlined in the Investment Policy
Statement. Managers are not permitted to invest outside of the asset class mandate (e.g., equity, fixed income, alternatives) or
strategy for which they are appointed.

Our defined contribution plans cover a substantial portion of domestic salaried employees and certain domestic represented
employees. The defined contribution plans contain a 401(k) feature and provide most participants with a matching contribution
from the Company. Many participants covered by the plan receive annual Company contributions to their retirement accounts
based on an age-weighted percentage of the participant's eligible compensation for the calendar year.
Defined contribution expense pursuant to these plans was $41 million, $33 million, and $31 million in 2012, 2011, and 2010
respectively.
In accordance with the 1993 Settlement Agreement, an independent Retiree Supplemental Benefit Trust (the "Supplemental
Trust") was established. The Supplemental Trust, and the benefits it provides to certain retirees, is not part of the Company's
consolidated financial statements. The assets of the Supplemental Trust arise from three sources: (i) the Company's 1993
contribution to the Supplemental Trust of 25.5 million shares of our Class B common stock, which were subsequently sold by
the Supplemental Trust prior to 2000, (ii) contingent profit-sharing contributions made by the Company, and (iii) net investment
gains on the Supplemental Trust's assets, if any.
The Company's contingent profit sharing obligations will continue until certain funding targets defined by the 1993 Settlement
Agreement are met ("Profit Sharing Cessation"). Upon Profit Sharing Cessation, the Company would assume responsibility for
(i) establishing the investment policy for the Supplemental Trust, (ii) approving or disapproving of certain additional
supplemental benefits to the extent such benefits would result in higher expenditures than those contemplated upon the Profit
Sharing Cessation, and (iii) making additional contributions to the Supplemental Trust as necessary to make up for investment
and / or actuarial losses.
We have recorded no profit sharing accruals based on the operating performance of the entities that are included in the
determination of qualifying profits.

During the year ended October 31, 2012, we recognized income tax expense of $1,973 million for the increase in the valuation
allowance on our U.S. deferred tax assets partially offset by a benefit of $189 million from the release of a significant portion of
our valuation allowance on our Canadian deferred tax assets.
During the year ended October 31, 2011, we recognized an income tax benefit of $1,537 million from the release of valuation
allowances on our U.S. deferred tax assets, an income tax benefit of $42 million from the resolution of tax audits in various
jurisdictions and higher credits due to the reinstatement of research and development credits retroactive to January 1, 2010. In
2012, our effective tax rate differed from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to the impact of the increase in the allowance on
our U.S. deferred tax assets partially offset by the impact of the release of valuation allowances on our Canadian deferred tax
assets. In 2011, our effective tax rate differed from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to the release of valuation allowances
on our U.S. deferred tax assets.

Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
Undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries were $507 million at October 31, 2012. Domestic income taxes have not been
provided on these undistributed earnings because they are considered to be permanently invested in foreign subsidiaries. It is
not practicable to estimate the amount of unrecognized deferred tax liabilities, if any, for these undistributed foreign earnings.

At October 31, 2012, deferred tax assets attributable to NOL carry forwards include $319 million attributable to U.S. federal
NOL carry forwards, $95 million attributable to state NOL carry forwards, and $169 million attributable to foreign NOL carry
forwards. If not used to reduce future taxable income, U.S. federal NOLs are scheduled to expire beginning in 2025. State
NOLs can be carried forward for initial periods of 5 to 20 years, and are scheduled to expire in 2013 to 2032. Approximately
one half of our foreign net operating losses will expire, beginning in 2029, while the balance has no expiration date.
There are $61 million of NOL carry forwards relating to stock option tax benefits which are deferred until utilization of our net
operating losses. These tax benefits will be allocated to Additional paid-in capital when recognized. The majority of our tax
credits can be carried forward for initial periods of 20 years, and are scheduled to expire in 2013 to 2032. Alternative minimum
tax credits can be carried forward indefinitely.
A valuation allowance is required to be established or maintained when, based on currently available information, it is more
likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The guidance on accounting for income taxes
provides important factors in determining whether a deferred tax asset will be realized, including whether there has been
sufficient taxable income in recent years and whether sufficient income can reasonably be expected in future years in order to
utilize the deferred tax asset.
We have evaluated the need to maintain a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets based on our assessment of whether it is
more likely than not that deferred tax benefits will be realized through the generation of future taxable income. Appropriate
consideration is given to all available evidence, both positive and negative, in assessing the need for a valuation allowance. In
the fourth quarter of 2012 our evaluation resulted in the determination that a significant additional valuation allowance on our
U.S. deferred tax assets was required, due in part to our current domestic performance, which include continued fourth quarter
deterioration and cumulative losses as of October 31, 2012, risks associated with our strategy for meeting 2010 Environmental
Protection Agency ("EPA") emissions standards, and significant fourth quarter warranty charges. The qualitative and
quantitative analysis of current and expected domestic earnings, industry volumes, tax planning strategies, and general business
risks resulted in a more likely than not conclusion of not being able to realize a significant portion of our deferred tax assets.
For additional discussion on risks associated with our strategy for meeting 2010 EPA emissions standards see section Meeting
U.S. Federal and State 2010 Emissions Standards Requirements of Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies.
In the second quarter of 2012, our evaluation resulted in the determination that a significant portion of our valuation allowance
on our Canadian deferred tax assets could be released. The qualitative and quantitative analysis of current and expected
earnings, industry volumes, tax planning strategies, and general business risks resulted in a more likely than not conclusion of
being able to realize a significant portion of our Canadian deferred tax assets. We have begun to realize the benefits of the shift
102
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
in our Canadian business model from a truck manufacturer to a truck distributor, combined with our existing Parts business,
which is expected to continue in the foreseeable future. As a result of our analysis, we recognized an income tax benefit of $189
million from the release of valuation allowances.
We continue to maintain valuation allowances on certain other foreign deferred tax assets that we believe, on a more-likely-
than-not basis, will not be realized based on current forecasted results. For all remaining deferred tax assets, while we believe
that it is more likely than not that they will be realized, we believe that it is reasonably possible that additional deferred tax
asset valuation allowances could be required in the next twelve months.
The total deferred tax asset valuation allowances increased by $2.3 billion in 2012 from $344 million to $2.7 billion. In the
event we released all of our valuation allowances all would impact tax expense.
During 2011, we conducted an evaluation and determined that a significant portion of our valuation allowance on our U.S.
deferred tax assets could be released and as a result, we recognized an income tax benefit of $1.5 billion and an adjustment to
Additional paid in capital of $45 million for the release of the valuation allowances on our U.S. deferred tax assets during the
fiscal year. The qualitative and quantitative analysis of current and expected domestic earnings, industry volumes, tax planning
strategies, and general business risks resulted in a more likely than not conclusion of being able to realize a significant portion
of our U.S. deferred tax assets. We had been able to sustain positive cumulative earnings despite record low industry volumes
during 2011 and the previous three years. Industry volumes increased during 2011 and the increase in volume was expected to
continue in the foreseeable future. In addition, we successfully diversified our business offerings and customer base to be less
dependent on the traditionally cyclical truck industry.
We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be
sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in
the consolidated financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty
percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. As of October 31, 2012 and 2011, the amount of liability for
uncertain tax positions was $49 million and $82 million, respectively. The liability at October 31, 2012 of $49 million can be
reduced by $10 million for offsetting tax benefits associated with the correlative effects of potential transfer pricing
adjustments. If the unrecognized tax benefits are recognized, all but $6 million would impact our effective tax rate. However, to
the extent we continue to maintain a full valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets, the effect may be in the form of
an increase in the deferred tax asset related to our net operating loss carry forward, which would be offset by a full valuation
allowance.
Changes in the liability for uncertain tax positions during the year ended October 31, 2012 are summarized as follows:
(in millions)
Liability for uncertain tax positions at November 1 ................................................................................................ $
Increase as a result of positions taken in prior periods .....................................................................................

We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as part of Income tax benefit (expense). Total interest and
penalties related to our uncertain tax positions resulted in an income tax benefit of $11 million and an expense of $2 million for
the years ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
We have open tax years back to 2005 with various significant taxing jurisdictions including the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and
Brazil. In connection with the examination of tax returns, contingencies may arise that generally result from differing
interpretations of applicable tax laws and regulations as they relate to the amount, timing, or inclusion of revenues or expenses
in taxable income, or the sustainability of tax credits to reduce income taxes payable. We believe we have sufficient accruals for
our contingent tax liabilities. Annual tax provisions include amounts considered sufficient to pay assessments that may result
from examinations of prior year tax returns, although actual results may differ. While it is probable that the liability for
unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease during the next twelve months, we do not expect any such change would
have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

12. Fair Value Measurements
For assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis, a three-level hierarchy of measurements
based upon observable and unobservable inputs is used to arrive at fair value. Observable inputs are developed based on market
data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our assumptions about valuation based on the best
information available in the circumstances. Depending on the inputs, we classify each fair value measurement as follows:
• Level 1—based upon quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets,
• Level 2—based upon quoted prices for similar instruments, prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that
are not active, or model-derived valuations, all of whose significant inputs are observable, and
• Level 3—based upon one or more significant unobservable inputs.
The following section describes key inputs and assumptions in our valuation methodologies:
Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Equivalents—We classify highly liquid investments, with a maturity of 90 days or less at
the date of purchase, including U.S. Treasury bills, federal agency securities, and commercial paper, as cash equivalents. The
carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity
and highly liquid nature of these instruments.
Marketable Securities—Our marketable securities portfolios are classified as available-for-sale and primarily include
investments in U.S. government and commercial paper with a maturity of greater than 90 days at the date of purchase. We use
quoted prices from active markets to determine fair value.
Derivative Assets and Liabilities—We measure the fair value of derivatives assuming that the unit of account is an individual
derivative transaction and that each derivative could be sold or transferred on a stand-alone basis. We classify within Level 2
our derivatives that are traded over-the-counter and valued using internal models based on observable market inputs. In certain
cases, market data is not available and we estimate inputs such as in situations where trading in a particular commodity is not
active. Measurements based upon these unobservable inputs are classified within Level 3. For more information regarding
derivatives, see Note 13, Financial Instruments and Commodity Contracts.
Retained Interests—We held retained interests in receivables sold in off-balance sheet securitization transactions prior to
November 1, 2010. We estimated the fair value of those retained interests using internal valuation models that incorporate
market inputs and our own assumptions about future cash flows. The fair value of retained interests was estimated based on the
present value of monthly collections on the sold finance receivables in excess of amounts accruing to investors and other
obligations arising in securitization transactions. In addition to the amount of debt and collateral held by the securitization
vehicle, the three key inputs that affect the valuation of the retained interests include credit losses, payment speed, and the
discount rate. We classified these assets within Level 3.
Guarantees—We provide certain guarantees of payments and residual values to specific counterparties. Fair value of these
guarantees is based upon internally developed models that utilize current market-based assumptions and historical data. We
classify these liabilities within Level 3. For more information regarding guarantees, see Note 14, Commitments and
Contingencies.

(in millions)
Finance receivables (A) ................................................................................................................ $
_____________
(A) Certain impaired finance receivables are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. An impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the
2012
2011
$

carrying value of the receivables exceeds the fair value of the underlying collateral, net of remarketing costs. As of October 31, 2012, impaired
receivables with a carrying amount of $14 million had specific loss reserves of $9 million and a fair value of $5 million. As of October 31, 2011, impaired
receivables with a carrying amount of $15 million had specific loss reserves of $10 million and a fair value of $5 million. Fair values of the underlying
collateral are determined by reference to dealer vehicle value publications adjusted for certain market factors.
For the purpose of impairment evaluation during the year ended October 31, 2012, the Company measured the fair values of
certain long-lived assets, including intangible assets. No long-lived assets were written down to their fair value during the year
ended October 31, 2012. During the year ended October 31, 2011, certain impaired property and equipment with a carrying
amount of $64 million were written down to their fair value of $54 million resulting in an impairment charge of $10 million,
which was included in Impairment of property and equipment and intangible assets. We utilized the market and cost approach
to determine the fair value of these Level 3 assets. During the three months ended July 31, 2011, intangible assets with a
carrying amount of $84 million were written down to their fair value of $30 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $54
million, which was included in Impairment of property and equipment and intangible assets. We utilized the income and market
approach to determine the fair value of these Level 3 assets.
105
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
In addition to the methods and assumptions we use for the financial instruments recorded at fair value as discussed above, we
use the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value for our other financial instruments that are not marked to
market on a recurring basis. The carrying amounts of Cash and cash equivalents, Restricted cash, and Accounts payable
approximate fair values because of the short-term maturity and highly liquid nature of these instruments. Finance receivables
generally consist of retail and wholesale accounts and retail and wholesale notes. The carrying amounts of Trade and other
receivables and retail and wholesale accounts approximate fair values as a result of the short-term nature of the receivables. The
carrying amounts of wholesale notes approximate fair values as a result of the short-term nature of the wholesale notes and their
variable interest rate terms. The fair values of these financial instruments are classified as Level 1. Due to the nature of the
aforementioned financial instruments, they have been excluded from the fair value amounts presented in the table below.
The fair values of our retail notes are estimated by discounting expected cash flows at estimated current market rates. The fair
values of our retail notes are classified as Level 3 financial instruments.
The fair values of our debt instruments classified as Level 1 were determined using quoted market prices. Our Loan Agreement
underlying the Tax Exempt Bonds are traded but are illiquid and as a result are classified as Level 2. The fair values of our
Level 3 debt instruments are generally determined using internally developed valuation techniques such as discounted cash
flow modeling. Inputs such as discount rates and credit spreads reflect our estimates of assumptions that market participants
would use in pricing the instrument and may be unobservable.
The carrying values and estimated fair values of financial instruments are summarized in the tables below:

(A) The carrying value represents the consolidated financial statement amount of the debt which excludes the allocation of the conversion feature to equity,
while the fair value is based on quoted market prices for the convertible note which includes the equity feature.
13. Financial Instruments and Commodity Contracts
Derivative Financial Instruments
We use derivative financial instruments as part of our overall interest rate, foreign currency, and commodity risk management
strategies to reduce our interest rate exposure, reduce exchange rate risk for transactional exposures denominated in currencies
other than the functional currency, and minimize the effect of commodity price volatility. From time to time, we use foreign
currency forward and option contracts to manage the risk of exchange rate movements that would affect the value of our
foreign currency cash flows. Foreign currency exchange rate movements create a degree of risk by affecting the value of sales
made and costs incurred in currencies other than the functional currency. From time to time, we also use commodity forward
contracts to manage our exposure to variability in certain commodity prices. In connection with the sale of our Convertible
Notes, we purchased call options for $125 million. The call options are intended to minimize share dilution associated with the
Convertible Notes. As the call options and warrants are indexed to our common stock, we recognized them in permanent equity
in Additional paid in capital, and will not recognize subsequent changes in fair value as long as the instruments remain
classified as equity.
We generally do not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes and did not during the years
ended October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010. None of our derivatives qualified for hedge accounting treatment in 2012, 2011, and
2010.
Certain of our derivative contracts contain provisions that require us to provide collateral if certain thresholds are exceeded.
Collateral of $1 million was provided at October 31, 2012 and no collateral was provided at October 31, 2011. Collateral is
generally not required to be provided by our counter-parties for derivative contracts. We manage exposure to counter-party
credit risk by entering into derivative financial instruments with various major financial institutions that can be expected to
fully perform under the terms of such instruments. We do not anticipate nonperformance by any of the counter-parties. Our
exposure to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by the counter-parties is limited to those gains that have been recorded,
but have not yet been received in cash. At October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, our exposure to the credit risk of others was
zero and $4 million, respectively.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
Our financial services operations manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates by limiting the amount of fixed rate assets
funded with variable rate debt. This is accomplished by funding fixed rate receivables utilizing a combination of fixed rate and
variable rate debt and derivative financial instruments to convert variable rate debt to fixed. These derivative financial
instruments may include interest rate swaps, interest rate caps, and forward contracts. The fair value of these instruments is
estimated by discounting expected future monthly settlements and is subject to market risk, as the instruments may become less
valuable due to changes in market conditions, interest rates, or credit spreads of counter-parties. There were no such derivative
financial instruments outstanding as of October 31, 2012. Notional amounts of derivative financial instruments do not represent
exposure to credit risk.
The fair values of all derivatives are recorded as assets or liabilities on a gross basis in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. At
October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, the fair values of our derivatives and their respective balance sheet locations are
presented in the following tables:

Foreign Currency Contracts
During 2012 and 2011, we entered into foreign exchange forward and option contracts as economic hedges of anticipated cash
flows denominated in Canadian dollars, Brazilian reais, South African rand, and Euros. As of October 31, 2012, we had
outstanding option collars with notional amounts of €25 million Euros with maturity dates ranging from October 2012 through
April 2013. As of October 31, 2011, we had outstanding forward exchange contracts with notional amounts of €54 million
Euros and C$6 million Canadian dollars. All of these contracts were entered into to protect against the risk that the eventual
cash flows resulting from certain transactions will be affected by changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the
respective foreign currency.

Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
Commodity Forward Contracts
During 2012 and 2011, we entered into commodity forward contracts as economic hedges of our exposure to variability in
commodity prices for diesel fuel, lead, steel, and natural rubber. As of October 31, 2012, we had outstanding diesel fuel
contracts with aggregate notional values of $3 million and outstanding steel contracts with aggregate notional values of $61
million. The commodity forward contracts have maturity dates ranging from October 2012 to December 2013. As of
October 31, 2011, we had outstanding diesel fuel contracts with aggregate notional values of $19 million, outstanding lead
contracts with aggregate notional values of $1 million, outstanding steel contracts with aggregate notional values of $41
million, and outstanding natural rubber contracts with aggregate notional values of $14 million. All of these contracts were
entered into to protect against the risk that the eventual cash flows related to purchases of the commodities will be affected by
changes in prices.
Interest-Rate Contracts
We enter into various interest-rate contracts, including interest-rate swaps and cross currency interest-rate swaps. Interest-rate
swaps involve the exchange of fixed for floating rate or floating for fixed rate interest payments based on the contractual
notional amounts in a single currency. Cross currency interest-rate swaps involve the exchange of notional amounts and interest
payments in different currencies. We are exposed to interest rate and exchange rate risk as a result of our borrowing activities.
The objective of these contracts is to mitigate fluctuations in earnings, cash flows, and fair value of borrowings. As of
October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, the notional amount of our outstanding interest-rate contracts was $39 million and $50
million, respectively.
14. Commitments and Contingencies
Guarantees
We occasionally provide guarantees that could obligate us to make future payments if the primary entity fails to perform under
its contractual obligations. We have recognized liabilities for some of these guarantees in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as
they meet the recognition and measurement provisions of U.S. GAAP. In addition to the liabilities that have been recognized,
we are contingently liable for other potential losses under various guarantees. We do not believe that claims that may be made
under such guarantees would have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
In March 2010, we entered into a three-year operating agreement (with one-year automatic extensions and subject to early
termination provisions) with GE Capital Corporation and GE Capital Commercial, Inc. (collectively "GE") (the "GE Operating
Agreement"). Under the terms of the GE Operating Agreement, GE became our preferred source of retail customer financing
for equipment offered by us and our dealers in the U.S. We provide GE a loss sharing arrangement for certain credit losses. The
primary features of the loss sharing arrangement include us reimbursing GE for credit losses in excess of the first 10% of the
original value of a financed contract. The Company’s exposure to loss is mitigated since receivables financed under the GE
Operating Agreement are secured by the financed equipment. We do not carry the receivables financed under the GE Operating
Agreement on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. There were $1.2 billion and $723 million of outstanding finance receivables as
of October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, respectively, financed through the operating agreement and subject to the loss
sharing arrangement. The related originations of these outstanding finance receivables were $1.6 billion and $818 million as of
October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, respectively.
Based on our historic experience of losses on similar finance receivables and GE’s first loss position, we do not believe our
share of losses related to balances currently outstanding will be material. Historically, our losses, representing the entire loss
amount, on similar finance receivables, measured as a percentage of the average balance of the related finance receivable,
ranged from 0.3% to 2.1%. While under limited circumstances NFC retains the rights to originate retail customer financing, we
expect retail finance receivables and retail finance revenues will decline as our retail portfolio pays down.
For certain independent dealers’ wholesale inventory financed by third-party banks or finance companies, we provide limited
repurchase agreements to the respective financing institution. The amount of losses related to these arrangements has not been
material to our Consolidated Statements of Operations or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and the value of the
guarantees and accruals recorded are not material to our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We also have issued limited residual value guarantees in connection with various leases primarily financed by our financial
services operations. The amounts of the guarantees are estimated and recorded. Our guarantees are contingent upon the fair
value of the leased assets at the end of the lease term. The amount of losses related to these arrangements has not been material
to our Consolidated Statements of Operations or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and the value of the guarantees and
accruals recorded are not material to our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
109
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
We obtain certain stand-by letters of credit and surety bonds from third-party financial institutions in the ordinary course of
business when required under contracts or to satisfy insurance-related requirements. The amount of available stand-by letters of
credit and surety bonds was $69 million at October 31, 2012.
We extend credit commitments to certain truck fleet customers, which allow them to purchase parts and services from
participating dealers. The participating dealers receive accelerated payments from us with the result that we carry the
receivables and absorb the credit risk related to these customers. At October 31, 2012, we have $34 million of unused credit
commitments outstanding under this program.
In addition, as of October 31, 2012, we have entered into various purchase commitments of $65 million and contracts that have
cancellation fees of $49 million with various expiration dates through 2018.
In the ordinary course of business, we also provide routine indemnifications and other guarantees, the terms of which range in
duration and often are not explicitly defined. We do not believe these will result in claims that would have a material impact on
our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
The terms of the Ford/Navistar Settlement Agreement (as defined and described below) of January 9, 2009 require us to
indemnify Ford with respect to intellectual property infringement claims, if any, that are brought against Ford or others that use
the 6.0 liter or 6.4 liter engines on behalf of Ford. The maximum amount of future payments that we could potentially be
required to pay under the indemnification would depend on the magnitude of potential infringement claims and the associated
damages and cannot currently be determined. For more information, see 6.0 Liter Diesel Engine Litigation and Kruse vs. Ford,
below.
Environmental Liabilities
We have been named a potentially responsible party ("PRP"), in conjunction with other parties, in a number of cases arising
under an environmental protection law, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act,
popularly known as the "Superfund" law. These cases involve sites that allegedly received wastes from current or former
Company locations. Based on information available to us which, in most cases, consists of data related to quantities and
characteristics of material generated at current or former Company locations, material allegedly shipped by us to these disposal
sites, as well as cost estimates from PRPs and/or federal or state regulatory agencies for the cleanup of these sites, a reasonable
estimate is calculated of our share, if any, of the probable costs and accruals are recorded in our consolidated financial
statements. These accruals are generally recognized no later than completion of the remedial feasibility study and are not
discounted to their present value. We review all accruals on a regular basis and believe that, based on these calculations, our
share of the potential additional costs for the cleanup of each site will not have a material effect on our financial condition,
results of operations, or cash flows.
Three sites formerly owned by us; (i) Solar Turbines in San Diego, California, (ii) the Canton Plant in Canton, Illinois, and
(iii) Wisconsin Steel in Chicago, Illinois; were identified as having soil and groundwater contamination. Two sites in Sao
Paulo, Brazil, where we are currently operating, were identified as having soil and groundwater contamination. While
investigations and cleanup activities continue at these and other sites, we believe that we have adequate accruals to cover costs
to complete the cleanup of all sites.
We have accrued $21 million for these and other environmental matters, which are included within Other current liabilities and
Other noncurrent liabilities, as of October 31, 2012. The majority of these accrued liabilities are expected to be paid
subsequent to 2013.
Along with other vehicle manufacturers, we have been subject to an increased number of asbestos-related claims in recent
years. In general, these claims relate to illnesses alleged to have resulted from asbestos exposure from component parts found
in older vehicles, although some cases relate to the alleged presence of asbestos in our facilities. In these claims, we are not the
sole defendant, and the claims name as defendants numerous manufacturers and suppliers of a wide variety of products
allegedly containing asbestos. We have strongly disputed these claims, and it has been our policy to defend against them
vigorously. Historically, the actual damages paid out to claimants have not been material in any year to our financial condition,
results of operations, or cash flows. It is possible that the number of these claims will continue to grow, and that the costs for
resolving asbestos related claims could become significant in the future.

Legal Proceedings
Overview
We are subject to various claims arising in the ordinary course of business, and are party to various legal proceedings that
constitute ordinary, routine litigation incidental to our business. The majority of these claims and proceedings relate to
commercial, product liability, and warranty matters. In addition, from time to time we are subject to various claims and legal
proceedings related to employee compensation, benefits, and benefits administration including, but not limited to, compliance
with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and Department of Labor requirements. In our
opinion, apart from the actions set forth below, the disposition of these proceedings and claims, after taking into account
recorded accruals and the availability and limits of our insurance coverage, will not have a material adverse effect on our
business or our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Retiree Health Care Litigation
In April 2010, the UAW and others ("Plaintiffs") filed a "Motion of Plaintiffs Art Shy, UAW, et al for an Injunction to Compel
Compliance with the 1993 Settlement Agreement" (the "Shy Motion") in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of
Ohio (the "Court") relating to a 1993 settlement agreement concerning postretirement healthcare obligations (the “1993
Settlement Agreement”). The Shy Motion sought to enjoin the Company from implementing an administrative change relating
to prescription drug benefits under a healthcare plan for Medicare-eligible retirees (the "Part D Change"). Specifically,
Plaintiffs claimed that the Part D Change violated the terms of the 1993 Settlement Agreement previously approved by the
Court. That 1993 Settlement Agreement resolved a class action originally filed in 1992 regarding the restructuring of the
Company's then applicable retiree health care and life insurance benefits. In May 2010, the Company filed its Opposition to the
Shy Motion.
The Part D Change was effective July 1, 2010, and made the Company's prescription drug coverage for post-65 retirees ("Plan
2 Retirees") supplemental to the coverage provided by Medicare. Plan 2 retirees paid the premiums for Medicare Part D drug
coverage under the Part D Change.
In February 2011, the Court ruled on the Shy Motion (the "February 2011 Order"). The February 2011 Order sustained the
Plaintiffs' argument that the Company did not have authority to unilaterally substitute Medicare Part D for the prescription drug
benefit that Plaintiffs had been receiving under the 1993 Settlement Agreement. However, the February 2011 Order denied as
moot Plaintiffs' request for injunctive relief to prevent the Company from implementing the Part D Change, because the change
already had gone into effect. In February 2011, the Company filed a notice of appeal with the United States Court of Appeals
for the Sixth Circuit (the "Appellate Court") concerning the February 2011 Order.
On September 30, 2011, the Court issued an order directing the Company to reinstate the prescription drug benefit that was in
effect before the Company unilaterally substituted Medicare Part D for the prior prescription drug benefit (the "September 2011
Order"). The September 2011 Order also requires the Company to reimburse Plan 2 Retirees for any Medicare Part D premiums
they have paid since the Part D Change and the extra cost, if any, for the retirees' prescriptions under the Part D Change. On
October 14, 2011, the Company filed a notice of appeal with the Appellate Court concerning the September 2011 Order. The
Appellate Court consolidated the Company's appeal of the February 2011 Order and the September 2011 Order. On December
14, 2012, the Appellate Court denied the Company's appeal, affirming the February 2011 and September 2011 Orders.
FATMA Notice
International Indústria de Motores da América do Sul Ltda. ("IIAA"), formerly known as Maxion International Motores S/A
("Maxion"), now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, received a notice in July 2010 from the State of Santa Catarina
Environmental Protection Agency ("FATMA") in Brazil. The notice alleged that Maxion had sent wastes to a facility owned
and operated by a company known as Natureza and that soil and groundwater contamination had occurred at the Natureza
facility. The notice asserted liability against Maxion and assessed an initial penalty in the amount of R$2 million (the equivalent
of approximately US$1 million at October 31, 2012), which is not due and final until all administrative appeals are
exhausted. Maxion was one of numerous companies that received similar notices. IIAA filed an administrative defense in
August 2010 and has not yet received a decision following that appearance. IIAA disputes the allegations in the notice and
intends to vigorously defend itself.
6.0 Liter Diesel Engine Litigation
On May 20, 2011, 9046-9478 Quebec Inc. ("Quebec Inc.") filed a motion to authorize the bringing of a class action against the
Company, as well as Ford and Ford Motor Company of Canada, Limited (collectively, "Ford Defendants") in Superior Court
(the "Superior Court") in Quebec, Canada (the "Quebec Action"). The Quebec Action seeks authorization to bring a claim on
111
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
behalf of a class of Canadian owners and lessees of model year 2003-07 Ford vehicles powered by the 6.0L Power Stroke®
engine that the Company previously supplied to Ford. Quebec Inc. alleged that the engines in question have design and
manufacturing defects, and that the Company and Ford Defendants are solidarily liable for those defects. For relief, the Quebec
Action seeks monetary damages sufficient to remedy the alleged defects, compensate the alleged damages incurred by the
proposed class, and compensate plaintiffs' counsel. The Quebec Action also asks the Superior Court to order the Company and
the Ford Defendants to recall, repair, or replace the Ford vehicles at issue free of charge. In December 2011, the Company and
Quebec Inc. reached an agreement in principle whereby the Company voluntarily would produce certain documents to Quebec
Inc. pursuant to a protective order and Quebec Inc. voluntarily would dismiss the Company from the Quebec Action without
prejudice. In June 2012, the Company was dismissed without prejudice from the matter.
Kruse vs. Ford
We have been made aware of the Kruse Technology Partnership ("Kruse") vs. Ford lawsuit (the "Kruse Case") filed against
Ford regarding a potential patent infringement of three patents in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California.
An amended complaint against Ford was filed by Kruse in August 2010. The amended complaint alleges that Ford has
infringed the patents by sale or use of engines, such as the Power Stroke diesel engines. Navistar formerly supplied Power
Stroke diesel engines to Ford, although today Ford manufactures its own Power Stroke engines. In the Ford/Navistar Settlement
Agreement of January 9, 2009, Navistar agreed to indemnify Ford for claims of infringement based upon Ford's manufacture,
sale, or use of the 6.0 and 6.4 liter Power Stroke engines sold by Navistar to Ford. Ford has not requested Navistar to defend
Ford at this time. The judge assigned to the Kruse Case has stayed the case pending resolution of a similar suit against Daimler
Chrysler, Detroit Diesel, Freightliner, Western Star, Volkswagen, Cummins, and Chrysler Group. In November 2011, Kruse
disclaimed all the claims in one of the patents (U.S. Patent 6,405,704), which effectively terminates the patent rights for this
patent. The U.S. Patent Office ended the first re-examinations on the two remaining patents (U.S. Patent 6,058,904 and U.S.
Patent 5,265,562), and ruled that these will be in force with all claims intact. The U.S. Patent Office agreed to commence a new
re-examination of U.S. Patent 6,058,904 in April 2012 and U.S. Patent 5,265,562 in May 2012 as a result of third-party
requests based upon substantial new questions of patentability. In July 2012, the U.S. Patent Office issued a Notice of Intent to
allow all the claims in the two remaining Kruse patents, hence ending the second round of re-examination. Both patents expired
on July 27, 2012, however Kruse could still sue for any infringement prior to that date.
Based on our assessment of the facts underlying the claims in the above action, we are unable to provide meaningful
quantification of how the final resolution of these claims may impact our future consolidated financial condition, results of
operations, or cash flows.
Lis Franco de Toledo, et. al. vs. Syntex do Brasil and IIAA
In 1973, Syntex do Brasil Industria e Comercio Ltda. ("Syntex"), a predecessor of IIAA, our Brazilian engine manufacturing
subsidiary formerly known as MWM International Industria de Motores da America do Sul Ltda ("MWM"), filed a lawsuit in
Brazilian court against Dr. Lis Franco de Toledo and others (collectively, "Lis Franco"). Syntex claimed Lis Franco had
improperly terminated a contract which provided for the transfer from Lis Franco to Syntex of a patent for the production of a
certain vaccine. Lis Franco filed a counterclaim alleging that he was entitled to royalties under the contract. In 1975, the
Brazilian court ruled in favor of Lis Franco, a decision which was affirmed on appeal in 1976. In 1984, while the case was still
pending, Syntex’ owner, Syntex Comercio e Participacoes Ltds ("Syntex Parent") sold the stock of Syntex to MWM, and in
connection with that sale Syntex Parent agreed to indemnify and hold harmless MWM for any and all liabilities of Syntex,
including its prior pharmaceutical operations (which had been previously spun-off to another subsidiary wholly-owned by the
Syntex Parent) and any payments that might be payable under the Lis Franco lawsuit. In the mid to late 1990s, Syntex
Parent was merged with an entity known as Wyeth Industria Farmaceutica LTDA ("Wyeth").
In 1999, Lis Franco amended its pleadings to add MWM to the lawsuit as a defendant. In 2000, Wyeth acknowledged to the
Brazilian court its sole responsibility for amounts due in the Lis Franco lawsuit and MWM asked the court to be dismissed
from that action. The judge denied that request. MWM appealed and lost.
In his pleadings, Lis Franco alleged that the royalties payable to him were approximately R$42 million. MWM believed the
appropriate amount payable was approximately R$16 million. In December 2009, the court appointed expert responsible for the
preparation of the royalty calculation filed a report with the court indicating royalty damages of approximately R$70
million. MWM challenged the expert’s calculation. In August 2010, the court asked the parties to consider the appointment of a
new expert. MWM agreed with this request but Lis Franco objected and, in September 2010, the court accepted and ratified the
expert’s calculation as of May 2010 in the amount of R$74 million (the equivalent of approximately US$36 million at
October 31, 2012) and entered judgment against MWM.
112
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
In September 2010, MWM filed a motion for clarification of the decision which would suspend its enforcement. The Brazilian
court denied this motion and MWM appealed the matter to the Rio de Janeiro State Court of Appeals (the "Court of Appeals").
In January 2011, the Court of Appeals granted the appeal and issued an injunction suspending the lower Court’s decision and
judgment in favor of Lis Franco. In January 2011, MWM merged into IIAA and is now known as IIAA. An expert appointed by
the Court of Appeals submitted his calculation report on October 24, 2011, and determined the amount to be R$10.85 million
(the equivalent of approximately US$5 million at October 31, 2012). The parties submitted their comments to such report in
December 2011. The Court of Appeals is now reviewing the expert’s calculation criteria report and the parties' comments to
that report.
In parallel, in May 2010, MWM filed a lawsuit in Sao Paulo, Brazil, against Wyeth seeking recognition that Wyeth is liable for
any and all liabilities, costs, expenses, and payments related to the Lis Franco lawsuit. In September 2012, the Sao Paulo court
ruled in favor of MWM and ordered Wyeth to pay, directly to the Estate of Lis de Franco and others and jointly with MWM,
the amounts of the condemnation, to be determined at the end of the liquidation proceeding. The Sao Paulo court also ordered
Wyeth to reimburse MWM for all expenses, including court costs and attorney fees associated with the case. The parties were
notified of the decision in October 2012, and MWM filed a motion for clarification of certain issues in October 2012.
Deloitte & Touche LLP
In April 2011, the Company filed a complaint against Deloitte and Touche LLP ("Deloitte") in the Circuit Court of Cook
County, Illinois County Department, Law Division ("Illinois Circuit Court") for fraud, fraudulent concealment, negligent
misrepresentation, violation of the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act, professional malpractice,
negligence, breach of contract, and breach of fiduciary duty. The matters giving rise to the allegations contained in the
complaint arise from Deloitte's service as the Company's independent auditor prior to April 2006 and the Company is seeking
monetary damages against Deloitte. In May 2011, Deloitte filed a Notice of Removal to remove the case to the United States
District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. In June 2011, the Company filed in the federal court a motion to remand the
case to Illinois Circuit Court. In July 2011, Deloitte filed a motion to dismiss the Company's complaint and in August 2011, the
Company responded to Deloitte's motion to dismiss. In October 2011, the court remanded the case back to the Illinois Circuit
Court and denied the motion to dismiss as moot. The Company amended its complaint in January 2012 in Illinois Circuit Court.
In February 2012, Deloitte moved to dismiss the Company's amended complaint. In July 2012, the Illinois Circuit Court
granted in part and denied in part Deloitte's motion to dismiss. Specifically, the Illinois Circuit Court dismissed without
prejudice with leave to re-plead the Company's counts for fraud, fraudulent concealment and breach of fiduciary duty and
otherwise denied Deloitte's motion with respect to the remaining causes of action. In December 2012, the parties reached a
settlement.
Westbrook vs. Navistar. et. al.
In April 2011, a False Claims Act qui tam complaint against Navistar, Inc., Navistar Defense, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company ("Navistar Defense"), and unrelated third parties was unsealed by the United States District Court for the
Northern District of Texas. The complaint was initially filed under seal in August 2010 by a qui tam relator on behalf of the
federal government. The complaint alleged violations of the False Claims Act based on allegations that parts of vehicles
delivered by Navistar Defense were not painted according to the contract specification, and improper activities in dealing with
one of the vendors who painted certain of the vehicle parts. The complaint seeks monetary damages and civil penalties on
behalf of the federal government, as well as costs and expenses. The U.S. government notified the Court that it has declined to
intervene at this time. Navistar, Inc. was served with the complaint in July 2011, and a scheduling order and a revised
scheduling order have been entered by the Court. In December 2011, the Court granted a motion by Navistar, Inc. and Navistar
Defense, along with the other named defendants to judicially estop the relator and his affiliated company from participating in
any recovery from the action, and to substitute his bankruptcy trustee as the only person with standing to pursue the relator's
claims. In March 2012, the Court granted motions by Navistar, Inc., Navistar Defense, and the other named defendants to
dismiss the complaint. The dismissal was without prejudice and the relator filed an amended complaint in April 2012. In May
2012, Navistar, Inc., Navistar Defense, and the other named defendants filed motions to dismiss the amended complaint. In
addition, the parties jointly filed a motion to stay discovery pending resolution of the motions to dismiss. In July 2012, the
court granted all of the defendants' motions to dismiss with prejudice, dismissing all of the claims except the claim against
Navistar Defense for retaliation and the claim against Navistar, Inc. for retaliation, which was dismissed without
prejudice. Plaintiff was granted leave to file an amended complaint including only the retaliation claims against Navistar
Defense and Navistar, Inc. The relator did not file a retaliation claim against Navistar, Inc. and voluntarily dismissed without
prejudice the retaliation claim against Navistar Defense. The relator also filed a motion for reconsideration of the dismissal of
the False Claims Act claims against Navistar Defense which the court denied. The court issued final judgment dismissing the
matter on July 30, 2012. The relator filed a notice of appeal to the Fifth Circuit in August 2012 as to the Final Judgment and the
Motion for Reconsideration as to Navistar Defense only. Westbrook filed a separate notice of appeal to the Fifth Circuit in
113
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
August 2012 as to several district court orders, including the December 2011 order holding the Trustee, not Westbrook, to be
the proper party in the case.
Based on our assessment of the facts underlying the claims in the above action, we are unable to provide meaningful
quantification of how the final resolution of these claims may impact our future consolidated financial condition, results of
operations, or cash flows.
EPA Notice of Violation
In February 2012, Navistar, Inc. received a Notice of Violation ("NOV") from the EPA. The NOV pertains to approximately
7,600 diesel engines which, according to EPA, were produced by Navistar, Inc. in 2010 and, therefore, should have met EPA's
2010 emissions standards. Navistar, Inc. previously provided information to EPA showing that the engines were in fact
produced in 2009. The NOV contains EPA's conclusion that Navistar, Inc.'s alleged production of the engines in 2010 violated
the Federal Clean Air Act. The NOV states that EPA reserves the right to file an administrative complaint or to refer this matter
to the U.S. Department of Justice with a recommendation that a civil complaint be filed in federal district court.
Based on our assessment of the facts underlying the NOV above, we are unable to provide meaningful quantification of how
the final resolution of this matter may impact our future consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Other
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Inquiry
On June 21, 2012, Navistar received an informal inquiry from the Chicago Office of the Enforcement Division of the SEC
seeking a number of categories of documents for the periods dating back to November 1, 2010, relating to various accounting
and disclosure issues. We are cooperating with the SEC's inquiry. On July 16, 2012, pursuant to a formal order of private
investigation, we received a subpoena from the SEC requesting the same categories of documents sought via the informal
inquiry. To date, we have produced certain documents and intend to continue our full cooperation with the SEC in this matter.
At this time, we are unable to predict the outcome of this matter or provide meaningful quantification of how the final
resolution of this matter may impact our future consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Meeting U.S. Federal and State 2010 Emissions Standards Requirements
Truck and engine manufacturers continue to face significant governmental regulation of their products, especially in the areas
of environment and safety. We have incurred, and will continue to incur, significant research, development, and tooling costs to
design and produce our engine product lines to meet the EPA and California Air Resources Board ("CARB") on-highway heavy
duty diesel (“HDD”) emission standards that have reduced the allowable levels of nitrogen oxide ("NOx") to the current limit
of 0.20g NOx and include the required on-board diagnostics (“OBD”). The regulations requiring OBD began the initial phase-
in during 2010 for truck engines and are a part of our product plans.
We attempted to meet these emissions standards using Advanced Exhaust Gas Recirculation (“EGR”) until July 2012, when we
announced that we changed our engine emission strategy for our HDD engines from an EGR-only strategy to a strategy of
combining our EGR technology with Selective Catalytic Reduction ("SCR") after-treatment systems. Both of these HDD
engine strategies have resulted in and will continue to result in potential uncertainties related to our ability to meet these
emission standards, and/or a significant increase in the cost of our products, and have several associated risks that we have set
forth below. Any of the following risks relating to our HDD engine strategies could materially and adversely affect our
business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources, or cash flows. Although the following
describes those scenarios which we can reasonably anticipate, we can offer no assurances that other outcomes will not occur or
that the effects of the scenarios described will not be more severe than we currently anticipate.
In 2012, 2011 and 2010, certain of our HDD engine families met EPA and CARB certification requirements by using emission
credits we earned by producing low-NOx engines earlier than was required by the EPA. In January 2012, the EPA promulgated
the Interim Final Rule establishing NCPs for HDD engines, and we began using NCPs for trucks using certain of our HDD
engines in 2012. In June 2012, the D.C. Circuit Court ruled that the EPA did not follow the required rulemaking processes and
issued an order vacating the Interim Final Rule. The Company, as an intervenor in that action, asked for a rehearing, and in
August 2012, the D.C. Circuit Court denied that request. The Court's ruling became final on August 24, 2012. Following that
decision, some of our competitors filed a lawsuit asking the D.C. Circuit Court to invalidate the emission certificates issued to
us under the Interim Final Rule. The D.C. Circuit Court has not yet ruled on this matter, and we cannot assure you that the court
will rule in our favor.
114
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
Also in January 2012, the EPA published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for a final NCP rule (the "Final Rule"), which
proposed to make NCPs available in model years 2012 and later for emissions of NOx above the 0.20g limit for both medium
and heavy HDD engines. The EPA approved the Final Rule for heavy HDD engines on September 5, 2012, and indicated that it
was still reviewing comments and data, and thus would not finalize NCPs at that time as to medium HDD engines, for which
the Company has emissions credits expected to last into calendar year 2014. After approval of the Final Rule, the maximum
NCP per heavy HDD engine is $3,775 for the remainder of 2012, and is subject to an upward annual adjustment in 2013. The
Final Rule has been challenged by some of our competitors in the D.C. Circuit Court. The court has not yet ruled on this matter,
and we cannot assure you the court will rule in our favor.
Currently, CARB, and the corresponding agencies of nine other states that have adopted California's emission standards, do not
make available engine certification using NCPs. Therefore, we continue to sell engines and trucks in these ten states (the "10
CARB States") using the NOx emission credits previously described. Under current conditions and at the current pace of HDD
engine production, we expect our emission credits for heavy HDD engines may be consumed sometime in the first calendar
quarter of 2013. Unless CARB (and the corresponding nine other states) begin allowing NCPs for engine sales, we will not be
able to sell trucks with our heavy HDD engines in the 10 CARB States after our credits are consumed until CARB certifies
these engines to the 0.20g NOx standard.
In the year ended October 31, 2012, the Engine segment recorded charges totaling $34 million for NCPs for certain engine
sales that did not otherwise comply with emissions standards.
In October 2012, we announced a definitive agreement with Cummins under which Cummins Emission Solutions will supply
its SCR after-treatment system for our 13L engines, as well as other light and medium HDD engines. As a part of our expanded
relationship with Cummins, we are offering the Cummins 15L as a part of our North American on-highway truck line-up. We
began phasing in the Cummins 15L engine in December 2012. We expect to phase in the high volume 13L SCR engines in
April 2013. We anticipate phasing in our lower volume 13L SCR engines later in 2013 in stages. We anticipate product gaps in
the 10 CARB States for certain of the lower volume 13L EGR engines prior to full introduction of our SCR engines, which we
anticipate to be June 2013. The duration of the gaps will be dependent on a number of factors including but not limited to our
ability to execute as planned, the availability of emissions credits and product mix.
Although we passed Performance Compliance Audit (“PCA”) testing on our 13L and 15L engines, our 11L engines failed to
meet PCA testing requirements. We received a letter from the EPA notifying us of its intent to suspend or void the certificate of
conformity for our 11L engines being sold using NCPs (“11L NCP Engines”), based on our failure to timely comply with
conditions in the certificate that require PCA testing on these engines. We expect that the EPA will issue a final decision
suspending the certification of our 11L NCP Engines and will require us to take corrective action, including recalibrating or
reprogramming our 11L NCP Engines, to lower the NOx output. The EPA may also take similar action with regard to our 11L
engines sold using emissions credits.
In addition, we expect to achieve OBD certification for model year 2013 light and medium HDD engines in March 2013 for the
highest volume of these engines, and as late as June 2013 for lower volume light HDD engines. Beginning in the first calendar
quarter of 2013, we anticipate gaps in production of light and medium HDD engines as we work to achieve OBD certification.
Our 13L SCR engines must also achieve OBD certification, and these engines face similar risks if they do not achieve OBD
certification by their projected April 2013 phase-in.
15. Segment Reporting
The following is a description of our four reporting segments:
• Our Truck segment manufactures and distributes a full line of Class 4 through 8 trucks, buses, and military vehicles
under the International and IC Bus ("IC") brands. Our Truck segment also produces RVs, including non-motorized
towables, under the Monaco family of brands, and concrete mixers under the Continental Mixers brand. In an effort to
strengthen and maintain our dealer network, this segment occasionally acquires and operates dealer locations for the
purpose of transitioning ownership. During 2012, we idled our WCC business.
• Our Engine segment designs and manufactures diesel engines for use globally, in Class 3 through 8 vehicles, as well
as off-road applications. In North America, these engines primarily go into our Class 6 and 7 medium trucks and buses
and Class 8 heavy trucks, and are sold to OEMs. In Brazil, our Engine segment produces diesel engines, primarily
under the MWM brand, as well as under contract manufacturing arrangements, for sale to OEMs in South America. In
all other areas of the world, including North America, engines are sold under the MaxxForce brand name. To control
cost and technology, our Engine segment has expanded its operations to include Pure Power Technologies ("PPT"), a
components company focused on air, fuel, and after-treatment systems to meet more stringent Euro and EPA emissions
115
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
standards. Also included in the Engine segment are the operating results of BDP, which manages the sourcing,
merchandising, and distribution of certain service parts we sell to Ford in North America.
• Our Parts segment provides customers with proprietary products needed to support the International commercial and
military truck, IC Bus, MaxxForce engine lines, as well as our other product lines. Our Parts segment also provides a
wide selection of other standard truck, trailer, and engine aftermarket parts. At October 31, 2012, this segment
operated eleven regional parts distribution centers that provide 24-hour availability and shipment.
• Our Financial Services segment provides retail, wholesale, and lease financing of products sold by the Truck and Parts
segments and their dealers within the U.S. and Mexico, as well as financing for wholesale accounts and selected retail
accounts receivable.
Corporate contains those items that are not included in our four segments.
In June 2012, the Company announced changes to its organizational structure. In August 2012, the Company announced that
Daniel C. Ustian, its Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, who was the Company's Chief Operating Decision
Maker ("CODM"), informed the Board of Directors of his retirement which was effective immediately and his concurrent
resignation from the Board of Directors. While there were no changes to the Company's segment reporting through October 31,
2012, the Company continues to assess the impact, if any, that the change in the CODM and ongoing changes to its
organization structure will have on the Company's segment reporting.
Segment Profit (Loss)
We define segment profit (loss) as Net income (loss) attributable to Navistar International Corporation excluding Income tax
benefit (expense). Selected financial information is as follows:
•
The costs of profit sharing and annual incentive compensation are included in corporate expenses.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Interest expense and interest income for the manufacturing operations are reported in corporate expenses.
Certain sales to our dealers include interest-free periods that vary in length. The Financial Services segment finances
these sales and our Truck segment subsidizes and reimburses the Financial Services segment for those finance charges.
Intersegment purchases and sales between the Truck and Engine segments are recorded at our best estimates of arms-
length pricing. During 2010, MaxxForce Big-Bore engine program was treated as a joint program with the Truck and
Engine segments sharing in certain costs of the program.
Beginning in 2011, certain purchases from the Engine segment by the Parts segment, primarily related to PPT, are
recorded at market-based pricing. All other intersegment purchases from the Truck and Engine segments by the Parts
segment are recorded at standard production cost.
We allocate "access fees" to the Parts segment from the Truck and Engine segments for certain engineering and product
development costs, depreciation expense, and selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by the Truck and
Engine segments based on the relative percentage of certain sales, as adjusted for cyclicality.
The Financial Services segment provides the manufacturing operations, primarily our Truck and Parts segments,
financing services that account for a significant share of its financing revenue. Certain retail sales financed by the
Financial Services segment, primarily NFC, require the manufacturing operations, primarily the Truck segment, to share
a portion of any credit losses.
In 2010 and 2011, as a result of higher costs of borrowings, the Financial Services segment charged the manufacturing
operations certain fees and interest rates for its funding services. Effective with the third quarter of 2011, with
improvements in its cost of borrowings, the Financial Services segment reduced some of these fees and interest rates
through an amendment to the Company's master intercompany agreement. Effective with the fourth quarter of 2011, the
Company's master intercompany agreement was again amended to provide for the Financial Services segment to
reimburse the manufacturing operations for fees and financing revenue when the Financial Services segment exceeds a
minimum interest coverage ratio. As a result of the amendment, in the fourth quarter of 2011 the Financial Services
segment reimbursed the manufacturing operations $11 million of financing fees and revenues. Effective with the first
quarter of 2012, the Company's master intercompany agreement was again amended to eliminate these intercompany
fees.
Beginning in 2011, we allocate gains and losses on commodities derivatives to the segment to which the underlying
commodities relate. Previously, the impacts of commodities derivatives were not material and were recorded in
Corporate.
Other than the items discussed above, the selected financial information presented below is recognized in accordance
with our policies described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

16. Stockholders' Equity (Deficit)
Stockholder Rights Plan
In June 2012, our Board of Directors adopted a Stockholder Rights Plan (the "Rights Plan") and initially declared a dividend of
one right on each outstanding share of the Company's common stock held of record as of the close of business on June 29,
2012. Pursuant to the Rights Plan, each share of common stock of the Company is now associated with one preferred stock
purchase right. Each right entitles the holder to buy a unit representing one one-thousandth of a share of a new series of
preferred stock of the Company for $140.00. Under certain circumstances, if a person or group acquires beneficial ownership of
15% or more of the Company's common stock, each right (other than rights held by the acquiror) will, unless the rights are
redeemed by the Company, become exercisable upon payment of the exercise price of $140.00 for common stock of the
Company having a market value of twice the exercise price of the right. The rights may be redeemed by the Company for
$0.001 per right at any time until the tenth business day following the first public announcement of the acquisition of beneficial
ownership of 15% of the Company's common stock. The rights expire on June 18, 2013.
Preferred and Preference Stocks
NIC has authorized 30 million shares of preferred stock, none of which have been issued, with a par value of $1.00 per share.
In June 2012, the Company filed (i) a Certificate of Elimination to its Restated Certificate of Incorporation, eliminating the
series of 110,000 shares of Preferred Stock designated as Junior Participating Preferred Stock, Series A, par value $1.00 per
share, that had been authorized in 2007, but unissued, in connection with a prior stockholder rights plan and (ii) a Certificate of
Designation to its Restated Certificate of Incorporation creating a series of 22,000 shares of Preferred Stock designated as
Junior Participating Preferred Stock, Series A, par value $1.00 per share, authorized in connection with the adoption of a new
stockholder rights plan in June 2012. The Junior Participating Preferred Stock, Series A authorized in June 2012 shall have the
voting and such other rights, powers and preferences as provided for in the Certificate of Designation
NIC has authorized 10 million shares of preference stock with a par value of $1.00 per share.
The UAW holds the Series B Nonconvertible Junior Preference Stock ("Series B") and is currently entitled to elect one member
of our Board of Directors. As of October 31, 2012 and 2011, there was one share of Series B Preference stock authorized and
outstanding.
118
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
As of October 31, 2012 and 2011, there were 126.403 and 136.801 shares, respectively, of Series D Convertible Junior
Preference Stock ("Series D") issued and outstanding. These shares were issued with a par value of $1.00 per share, an optional
redemption price, and a liquidation preference of $25 per share plus accrued dividends. The Series D stock may be converted
into NIC common stock at the holder's option (subject to adjustment in certain circumstances); upon conversion each share of
Series D stock is converted to 0.3125 shares of common stock. The Series D stock ranks senior to common stock as to
dividends and liquidation and receives dividends at a rate of 120% of the cash dividends on common stock as declared on an
as-converted basis.
Common Stock
On February 15, 2011, upon recommendation of the Board of Directors, the stockholders voted on and approved an amendment
to the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 110
million shares to 220 million shares, with a par value of $0.10 per share. There were 79.3 million shares and 70.5 million shares
of common stock outstanding, net of common stock held in treasury, at October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
October 2012 Issuance of Common Stock
In October 2012, the Company completed a public offering of 10,666,666 shares of NIC common stock at a price of $18.75 per
share and received proceeds, net of underwriting discounts, commissions, and offering expenses, of $192 million. In connection
with the public offering, in November 2012, the underwriters elected to exercise a portion of the over-allotment option and
purchased an additional 763,534 shares of NIC common stock at a price of $18.75 per share. The Company received proceeds
from the exercise of the over-allotment, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, of $14 million.
Additional Paid in Capital
In connection with the sale of the Convertible Notes, the Company purchased call options for $125 million and entered into
separate warrant transactions whereby the Company sold warrants for $87 million to purchase shares of common stock. As the
call options and warrants are indexed to our common stock, we recognized them in permanent equity in Additional paid in
capital, and will not recognize subsequent changes in fair value as long as the instruments remain classified as equity. See Note
9, Debt, for further discussion.

Share Repurchase Programs
In December 2010, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program utilizing cash proceeds received from the
exercise of stock options, up to a limit of $25 million, which was completed in September 2011. Under this program, we
repurchased 532,016 shares of our common stock.
In September 2011, a special committee of our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $175
million worth of the Company's common stock in the open market or in any private transaction.
In October 2011, the Company entered into a variable term accelerated share repurchase ("ASR") agreement with a third-party
financial institution to purchase shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $100 million. Under the ASR
agreement, the Company paid the financial institution $100 million and received an initial delivery of 2,380,952 shares. The
value of the delivered shares on the date of purchase was $80 million at $33.60 per share, and was included in Common stock
held in treasury in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of October 31, 2011. The remaining $20 million was included in
Additional paid in capital in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of October 31, 2011.
In November 2011, the ASR program concluded and the Company received an additional 161,657 shares for a total of
2,542,609 shares. The final settlement was based upon the volume weighted average price of the Company's common stock
(subject to a discount agreed upon with the financial institution) over an averaging period. With the conclusion of the
agreement, the remaining $20 million included in Additional paid in capital was reclassified to Common stock held in treasury.
119
Navistar International Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
In October 2011, the Company entered into an open market share repurchase ("OMR") agreement with a third-party financial
institution to purchase the remaining $75 million worth of the Company's common stock authorized by a special committee of
our Board of Directors in September 2011. The OMR commenced in November 2011, following the completion of the ASR
program. In January 2012, the OMR concluded with the Company repurchasing 1,905,600 shares of our common stock.
Repurchases of $70 million were settled in cash during the three months ended January 31, 2012, and the remaining $5 million
was settled in cash during the three months ended April 30, 2012. The share repurchase program expired upon its completion.
Dividend Restrictions
Under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, dividends may only be paid out of surplus or out of net profits
for the year in which the dividend is declared or the preceding year, and no dividend may be paid on common stock at any time
during which the capital of outstanding preferred stock or preference stock exceeds our net assets.
As set forth in the Senior Notes indenture, the terms of our Senior Notes include various financial covenants and restrictions
including, among others, certain limitations on dividends. The Loan Agreement with regard to the Tax Exempt Bonds contains
substantially identical financial covenants and restrictions, including, among others, certain limitations on dividends. We have
not paid dividends on our common stock since 1980.

The conversion rate on our Convertible Notes is 19.891 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible
Notes, equivalent to an initial conversion price of $50.27 per share of common stock. In connection with the sale of the
Convertible Notes, we sold warrants to various counterparties to purchase shares of our common stock from us at an exercise
price of $60.14 per share. The Convertible Notes and warrants are anti-dilutive when calculating diluted earnings per share
when our average stock price is less than $50.27 and $60.14, respectively.
We also purchased call options in connection with the sale of the Convertible Notes, covering 11.3 million shares at an exercise
price of $50.27 per share, which are intended to minimize share dilution associated with the Convertible Notes; however under
accounting guidance, these call options cannot be utilized to offset the dilution of the Convertible Notes for determining diluted
earnings per share as they are anti-dilutive.
The computation of diluted earnings per share also excludes outstanding options and other common stock equivalents in
periods where inclusion of such potential common stock instruments would be anti-dilutive.
For the year ended October 31, 2012, no dilutive securities were included in the computation of diluted loss per share since
they would have been anti-dilutive due to the net loss attributable to Navistar International Corporation. The aggregate shares
not included were 28.5 million, of which 11.3 million shares were related to the warrants and 11.3 million shares were related
to the Convertible Notes.
For the year ended October 31, 2011, the aggregate shares not included in the computation of earnings per share, as they would
have been anti-dilutive, were 0.9 million. Additionally, the computation of earnings per share for the year ended October 31,
2011 did not include any impact of the forward contract related to the ASR program as it would have been anti-dilutive.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
For the year ended October 31, 2010, the aggregate shares not included in the computation of earnings per share, as they would
have been anti-dilutive, were 11.5 million, of which 11.3 million shares were related to warrants and were anti-dilutive as our
average stock price was less than the exercise price on the warrants for the year ended October 31, 2010.
18. Stock-based compensation plans
In February 2004, our shareholders approved the 2004 Performance Incentive Plan ("2004 Plan"), which provides for, among
other awards, the granting of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, cash-settled restricted stock units and cash-
settled performance shares to employees and non-employee directors and consultants. The awards granted under the 2004 Plan
are established by our Board of Directors or a committee thereof at the time of issuance. Options are awarded with an exercise
price equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant and generally vest over a three-year period. The
stock options granted prior to December 2009 generally have a ten-year contractual life. Starting with the December 2009
option grants, the Company granted awards with a seven-year contractual life. Restricted stock is common stock that is subject
to forfeiture or other restrictions that will lapse upon satisfaction of specified conditions. Restricted stock units represent the
right to receive shares of common stock or cash in the future, with the right to future delivery of the shares or cash subject to
forfeiture or other restrictions that will lapse upon satisfaction of specified conditions. Awards of performance shares, which are
based on cash-settled stock units, will be determined by comparing the Company's total shareholder return for a pre-determined
period to the Company's percentile ranking when compared to its peer group. Awards of cash-settled restricted stock units and
performance shares are classified as liabilities and are remeasured at each reporting date.
The 2004 Plan replaced on a prospective basis, our 1994 Performance Incentive Plan, 1998 Supplemental Stock Plan, and 1998
Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan (the "Prior Plans") such that all future grants will be granted under the 2004 Plan
and any shares that are cancelled, expired, forfeited, settled in cash, or otherwise terminated without a delivery of shares to the
participant will become available for grant under the 2004 Plan.
A total of 3,250,000 shares of common stock were originally reserved for awards under the 2004 Plan. In February 2010, an
additional 2,500,000 shares were approved by the shareholders, which increased the total shares of common stock reserved for
awards under the 2004 Plan to 5,750,000 shares. Shares subject to awards under the 2004 Plan and shares subject to awards
under any Prior Plans that are cancelled, expired, forfeited, settled in cash, tendered to satisfy the purchase price of an award,
withheld to satisfy tax obligations, or otherwise terminated without a delivery of shares to the participant become available for
future awards under the 2004 Plan. As of October 31, 2012, 1,975,576 shares remain available for issuance under the 2004
Plan.
The following plans were approved by our Board of Directors but were not approved and were not required to be approved by
our stockholders: the Executive Stock Ownership Program (the "Ownership Program") and the Non-Employee Directors
Deferred Fee Plan (the "Deferred Fee Plan").
We also granted 500,000 non-qualified stock options to Lewis B. Campbell upon his appointment as Executive Chairman and
CEO of the company on August 26, 2012. These stock options were awarded pursuant to NYSE inducement grant rules.
Ownership Program—In June 1997, our Board of Directors approved the terms of the Ownership Program, and has since
amended it from time to time. In general, the Ownership Program requires all officers and senior managers to acquire, by direct
purchase or through salary or annual bonus reduction, an ownership interest in the Company by acquiring a designated amount
of our common stock at specified timelines. Participants are required to hold such stock for the entire period in which they are
employed by the Company. Participants may defer their cash bonus into deferred share units ("DSUs"), which vest immediately.
There were 30,478 DSUs outstanding as of October 31, 2012. Premium share units ("PSUs") may also be awarded to
participants who complete their ownership requirement on an accelerated basis. PSUs vest annually, pro rata over three years.
There were 104,493 PSUs outstanding as of October 31, 2012. Each vested DSU and PSU will be settled by delivery of one
share of common stock within ten days after a participant's termination of employment or at such later date as required by
Internal Revenue Code Section Rule 409A. Beginning in February 2004, PSUs and DSUs awarded under this program are
issued under the 2004 Plan.
Deferred Fee Plan—Under the Deferred Fee Plan, non-employee directors may elect to defer payment of all or a portion of
their retainer fees and meeting fees in cash (with interest) or in stock units. Deferrals in the deferred stock account are valued as
if each deferral was vested in NIC common stock as of the deferral date. As of October 31, 2012, 35,303 deferred shares were
outstanding under the Deferred Fee Plan.

The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the years ended October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 was
$14.73, $24.54, and $17.16, respectively. The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the years ended October
31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 was $1 million, $38 million, and $20 million, respectively. The fair value of each option grant was
estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
Risk-free interest rate............................................................................................................
Dividend yield ......................................................................................................................
Expected volatility ................................................................................................................
Expected life (in years).........................................................................................................

The use of the Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions. The risk-free interest
rate utilized is the implied yield on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected term
assumption on the grant date, rounded to the nearest half year. A dividend yield assumption of 0% is used for all grants based on
the Company's history of not paying a dividend to any class of stock. Expected volatility is based on our historical stock prices
and implied volatilities from traded options in our stock. The weighted average expected life in years for all grants as a group is
then calculated for each year. We monitor share option exercise and employee termination patterns to estimate forfeiture rates.

The aggregate fair value of restricted stock units vested during the years ended October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 was $10
million, $20 million, and $9 million, respectively.
During the years ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, we awarded 153,420 and 149,620, respectively, cash-settled performance
shares with a weighted average grant date fair value per share of $50.52 and $84.75, respectively. We estimated the fair value of
each performance share granted on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation that uses expected volatility and risk-free
rate assumptions. Expected volatilities of 52.3% and 47.3%, respectively, were used, based on the volatility implied by traded
call options in our stock and the historical volatility of our daily stock price. Risk free rates of 0.8% and 2.0%, respectively,
were used, based on the rate on zero-coupon government bonds with a term commensurate with the remaining performance
period at grant date.
There were no cash-settled performance shares granted during the year ended October 31, 2010. No cash-settled performance
shares vested during the years ended October 31, 2012 and 2011.
Total share-based compensation expense for the years ended October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 was $19 million, $36 million
and $24 million, respectively. As of October 31, 2012, there was $23 million of total unrecognized compensation expense
related to non-vested share-based awards. The compensation expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted average
period of 1.7 years.
The Company received cash of $2 million, $40 million, and $30 million during the years ended October 31, 2012, 2011, and
2010, respectively, related to stock awards exercised. The Company used cash of $6 million during 2012 to settle cash-settled
restricted stock units. The Company did not realize any tax benefit from stock awards exercised for 2012, 2011, or 2010.

20. Condensed Consolidating Guarantor and Non-guarantor Financial Information
The following tables set forth condensed consolidating balance sheets as of October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, and condensed
consolidating statements of operations and condensed consolidating statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the years
ended October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, and condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the years ended
October 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010. The information is presented as a result of Navistar, Inc.’s guarantee, exclusive of its
subsidiaries, of NIC’s indebtedness under our Senior Notes and obligations under our Loan Agreement related to the Tax
Exempt Bonds. Navistar, Inc. is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of NIC. None of NIC’s other subsidiaries guarantee any of
these notes or bonds. The guarantees are "full and unconditional", as those terms are used in Regulation S-X Rule 3-10, except
that the guarantees will be automatically released in certain customary circumstances, such as when the subsidiary is sold or all
of the assets of the subsidiary are sold, the capital stock is sold, when the subsidiary is designated as an "unrestricted
subsidiary" for purposes of the indenture, upon liquidation or dissolution of the subsidiary or upon legal or covenant
defeasance, or satisfaction and discharge of the notes. Separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning Navistar,
Inc. have not been presented because management believes that such information is not material to investors. Within this
disclosure only, "NIC" includes the financial results of the parent company only, with all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries
accounted for under the equity method. Likewise, "Navistar, Inc.," for purposes of this disclosure only, includes the
consolidated financial results of its wholly-owned subsidiaries accounted for under the equity method and its operating units
accounted for on a consolidated basis. "Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries" includes the combined financial results of all other non-
guarantor subsidiaries. "Eliminations and Other" includes all eliminations and reclassifications to reconcile to the consolidated
financial statements. NIC files a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return that includes Navistar, Inc. and its
U.S. subsidiaries. Navistar, Inc. has a tax allocation agreement ("Tax Agreement") with NIC which requires Navistar, Inc. to
compute its separate federal income tax liability and remit any resulting tax liability to NIC. Tax benefits that may arise from
net operating losses of Navistar, Inc. are not refunded to Navistar, Inc. but may be used to offset future required tax payments
under the Tax Agreement. The effect of the Tax Agreement is to allow NIC, the parent company, rather than Navistar, Inc., to
utilize current U.S. taxable losses of Navistar, Inc. and all other direct or indirect subsidiaries of NIC.

(A) Manufacturing gross margin is calculated by subtracting Costs of products sold from Sales of manufactured products, net.
(B) We record adjustments to our product warranty accrual to reflect changes in our estimate of warranty costs for products sold in prior periods. Such
adjustments typically occur when claims experience deviates from historic and expected trends. In the fourth quarter of 2012, we recorded adjustments for
changes in estimates of $149 million.
The warranty estimation for engines sold in 2012 includes a factor for improvements to the design and manufacturing process that was based on historical
experience. In the fourth quarter of 2012, we identified a deviation from historic experience and we recorded an adjustment for a change in estimate to
increase the costs accrued for warranty of $28 million for products sold in the first three quarters of 2012.
(C)
(D)
In the fourth quarter of 2012, we determined that a significant additional valuation allowance on our U.S. deferred tax assets was required, due in part to
our current domestic performance, which include continued fourth quarter deterioration and cumulative losses as of October 31, 2012 which included
significant fourth quarter warranty charges. As a result we recognized income tax expense of $2 billion for the increase in the valuation allowance. In the
fourth quarter of 2012, we also recognized $233 million of income tax expense related to the reversal of income tax benefits recognized in the first,
second, and third quarters of 2012.
In the fourth quarter of 2011, certain out-of-period adjustments were recorded related to the partial release of the Company's income tax valuation
allowance. The adjustments of approximately $61 million primarily related to the classification of a deferred tax item and resulted in the Company
recognizing an additional income tax benefit. The Company should have recognized the income tax benefit for this amount in the third quarter of 2011
with the release of a portion of the Company's income tax valuation allowance. Correcting the error was not material to any of the related periods.
131
Item 9.
Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A.
Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is
accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
In connection with the preparation of this report, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our
disclosure controls and procedures as of October 31, 2012. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the year ended October 31, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were
effective.
(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation
required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended October 31, 2012 that
have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
(c) Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in
Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, and
under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by management and our Board
of Directors to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those
policies and procedures that:
•
•
•
Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of assets of the Company.
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
accordance with U.S. GAAP and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made in accordance with
authorization of our management and our Board of Directors.
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of
our assets that could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to
the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the
policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2012 using the
criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in Internal Control-
Integrated Framework. As a result of that evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting
was effective as of October 31, 2012.
Our independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP, has audited the Company's consolidated financial statements
and the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2012. Their report appears in
this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

EXHIBIT 99.1
Additional Financial Information (Unaudited)
The following additional financial information is provided based upon the continuing interest of certain stockholders and
creditors to assist them in understanding our core manufacturing business with our financial services operations on an after-tax
equity basis. Our manufacturing operations, for this purpose, include our Truck segment, Engine segment, Parts segment, and
Corporate items. The manufacturing operations financial information represents non-GAAP financial measures. The
reconciling differences between these non-GAAP financial measures and our U.S. GAAP condensed consolidated financial
statements in Item 1, Financial Statements, are our financial services operations, which are included on an after-tax equity
basis. Certain of our subsidiaries in our manufacturing operations have debt outstanding with our financial services operations
(“intercompany debt”). In the condensed statements of assets, liabilities, redeemable equity securities, and stockholders' equity
(deficit), the intercompany debt is reflected as accounts payable. The change in the intercompany debt is reflected in the net
cash provided by operating activities in the condensed statements of cash activities.
