PACCAR had a record year in 2004 due to its superior vehicle quality, 



growth in its primary truck markets and strong results from aftermarket parts and

financial services.  PACCAR increased its share to record levels in the European

and North American heavy-duty truck markets.  Medium-duty truck share was

strong in both markets.  Customers benefited from PACCAR’s ongoing investments

in technology, which enhanced manufacturing efficiency, extensive support

programs and new product development.  PACCAR delivered a record 124,000 trucks

and sold more than $1.4 billion of aftermarket parts and services during the year.

Net income of $906.8 million was the highest earnings in the company’s 

99-year history, and revenues of $11.4 billion were 39 percent higher than in 

the previous year.  Dividends of $2.75 per share were declared during the year,

including a special dividend of $2.00.  PACCAR declared a 50 percent stock

dividend, effective February 2004, and increased its regular quarterly dividend,

DAF increased its presence in the growing European market and established 

records in sales, profit and production in 2004.  DAF is the product-quality

over-15-tonne and 6- to 15-tonne segments.

DAF unveiled an entirely new generation of PACCAR MX 12.9-liter engines in 2004. The MX engine employs

a sophisticated design and utilizes high-tech materials — including Compact Graphite Iron (CGI) — for the

cylinder block and head. This leading technology results in increased performance, reliability, durability and

fuel economy.

The PACCAR MX engine will initially be available in the DAF XF with power outputs of 410 hp, 460 hp 

and 510 hp. Additional versions are planned to include engine ratings of 560 hp for the XF and 360 hp for 

the CF Series.

DAF delivered the first phase of a significant order for articulated, heavy transport vehicles to the Royal

Dutch Army in 2004. Based on DAF’s XF model, the vehicles 

were designed for the rugged operating environment, with an

enhanced Space Cab module, a superior 6x6 drivetrain and 

an automated gearbox. The units are equipped with 13-tonne

or 24-tonne PACCAR winches for loading and unloading of

armored vehicles. The articulated vehicles will transport 

loads of over 100 tonnes GCW.

DAF continued to strengthen its vast distribution network of more than 1,000 dealer and service points

throughout Europe. The introduction of the Electronic Dealership tools, aligned with innovative order

processing and electronic credit analysis, enhances the customer’s sales experience. PACCAR Financial Europe

strengthened its position as a leading financial partner for DAF dealers.

The DAF CF85, Britain’s most popular tractor model, earned “Fleet Truck of the Year” from readers of Motor

Transport magazine for the third time in four years — an unprecedented achievement. For the fourth consecutive

year, the DAF LF was named “Best 7.5-Tonne Truck in the Import Category” in Germany, reinforcing the

superior reputation of DAF vehicles.

DAF made significant capital investments in its new world-class engine transfer lines and automated assembly

facility in Eindhoven. The new 8,000-square-foot anechoic chamber being built at Eindhoven will enable full-

size trucks to be evaluated for sound compliance. At the Westerlo facility, the implementation of robotic axle

welding and machining centers further improved quality and efficiency.

DAF’s XF long-haul flagship delivers exceptional customer value, offering

superior reliability, reduced operating expenses, high residual value and

luxurious interior appointments — attributes that have propelled record gains

in sales and market share.

Peterbilt combined excellent product quality, high vehicle resale value and classic

styling to increase market share in the heavy-duty segment.  Peterbilt earned the



J.D. Power and Associates 2004 award for Highest in Customer Satisfaction Among

Conventional Medium-Duty Trucks.*

Peterbilt’s new medium-duty Model 335 sets a higher quality standard in life-cycle value for Class 6/7

vehicles. Enhanced serviceability features and plush interior are combined in a modern, distinctively 

Peterbilt design.

The sloping, aerodynamically styled hood — constructed of a state-of-the-art composite material — is lighter

and improves visibility. An advanced forward lighting system provides 40 percent better down-road coverage

than conventional lighting designs. New features include a chromed grille crown, a stamped-steel bumper and

an ergonomic interior.

Peterbilt options introduced on select models include air disc brakes on front axles, higher-horsepower

engines for long- and heavy-haul operations, premium stainless-steel air cleaners

and keyless entry security systems. Peterbilt’s aftermarket TruckCare

Services were expanded with a new Value Preventive Maintenance

option and online chassis and parts catalogs.

Peterbilt implemented new manufacturing systems in its

factories, such as Web Trap, which replaces build paper with

computerized tracking of truck chassis throughout the assembly

process. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is being used to monitor

chassis in the factories and to assist PACCAR Financial in monthly vehicle performance metrics. Designated

product quality audit areas were constructed at both plants to showcase Peterbilt’s quality commitment to

customers and visitors.

Peterbilt invested in new cab paint robotics at its Nashville facility to enhance industry leading paint quality.

The Nashville plant replaced its 350,000-square-foot roof and reconfigured many of its assembly stations for

efficiency improvements.

RoadStar magazine honored Peterbilt’s special edition Model 379X conventional with its Most Valuable

Product (MVP) award in recognition of the vehicle’s innovation and owner/operator appeal. Heavy Duty

Trucking magazine highlighted the visibility upgrades to many Peterbilt models, which include new side windows

Kenworth earned the 2004 J.D. Power and Associates Award for Highest in Customer

Satisfaction Among Vocational Segment Class 8 Trucks* and Medium-Duty Truck



Dealer Service.** Product introductions and factory enhancements by “The World’s

Best” emphasized its reputation as a technology leader in the trucking industry.

Kenworth market share for Class 8 and Class 6/7 products increased in 2004, reflecting a vigorous brand and

exceptional life-cycle value. A series of new, innovative products enhanced driver comfort, reduced operating

expenses and bolstered already superior resale value.

Kenworth added two new AeroCab Diamond sleeper models to the product range. The 86-inch and 72-inch

configurations offer a 42-by-80-inch lower bunk with an optional upper bunk; up to an additional 69 cubic feet

of storage room; and a weight savings of 150 pounds.

T2000 enhancements increased aerodynamic performance and enhanced

driver amenities. Increased driver space provided a roomier cab. A reconfigured

front bumper makes repairs more cost-effective, while a new steel subframe

helps protect the radiator from road impacts.

The Kenworth T300 Class 6/7 conventional is increasing its market share.

Fresh styling enhancements include a new grille and complex reflector headlamps

that increase illumination by 50 percent, as well as an optional one-piece

stainless-steel-clad aluminum bumper. Corner windows, a driver workstation

and Australian burl wood paneling extend the list of custom options.

Kenworth opened its new Research & Development Center in 2004 to remain

at the forefront of innovative truck design. The 24,000-square-foot facility

houses leading-edge technologies such as a 3D design wall, laser-aided

coordinate mapping tools and sophisticated five-axis computerized modeling capability.

Kenworth captured several other prestigious honors in 2004. Assembly magazine named the Renton,

Washington, factory Assembly Plant of the Year, an outstanding tribute to Kenworth’s production and

engineering excellence. The Ste-Thérèse plant received the Government of Québec’s and the Québec Quality

Society’s top award — The Grand Prix Québec Quality Award for 2004.

The Kenworth Diamond Sleeper was recognized as one of the Most Valuable Products of 2004 by RoadStar

magazine, and Heavy Duty Trucking magazine selected the Kenworth External Temperature Gauge as one of its

Nifty Fifty new products of the year.

The strong Kenworth dealer network operates 282 locations in the U.S. and Canada. Kenworth introduced

two PremierCare inventory-management programs — Connect Professional for small- to medium-sized fleets

and Connect Enterprise for large fleets.

Popular with fleets and owner/operators alike, Kenworth’s T2000 aerodynamic long-haul

conventional continues to evolve. Enhancements in 2004 increase aerodynamic performance,

improve driver comfort in cab and sleeper areas, and reduce operating costs.

PACCAR Australia dominated the robust heavy-duty truck market in 2004, exceeding



previous records in profit, sales, market share and production volume.  Kenworth

remained the overwhelming choice among long-distance operators who require

custom-built, quality vehicles of superior reliability.

The Australian economy remained strong in 2004. PACCAR Australia, the continent’s leading producer of heavy

commercial vehicles, increased its market share to 24.6 percent. In the high-horsepower end of the market, where

trucks haul loads of 200 tonnes over rugged terrain, Kenworth’s share soared to an unprecedented 60 percent.

PACCAR Australia enhanced its share of short-haul B-Double and vocational segments with the introduction

of the Kenworth T404SAR (Short, Australian, Right-Hand Drive) conventional. This popular new model provides

customers a significant advantage by carrying up to a half tonne more per trip versus competitive trucks.

DAF Australia increased its share of the medium-duty cabover market, especially in metropolitan

applications, where the LF series is well suited. The DAF product range is providing PACCAR Australia dealers

with a proprietary engine and suspension for the Australian environment.

Specially engineered for Australia’s challenging B-Double and vocational applications, the Kenworth T404SAR

conventional provides customers with higher carrying capacities and, therefore, more profit potential than 

competitive trucks.

PACCAR Mexico (KENMEX) captured more than 52 percent of heavy-duty tractor sales

in the Mexican market during 2004.  Higher export volume plus substantial growth in



medium-duty and construction vehicles contributed to record production levels.

Over the past 10 years, Kenworth’s T300 has become increasingly popular for urban and regional distribution

applications in Mexico and Latin America. This model features many new styling enhancements such as an

advanced headlight system, 35 percent increased window areas and a comfortable, modern cab interior.

KENMEX unveiled the Class 6-8 KW45 and KW55 — based on the versatile DAF LF series— to serve Mexico’s

extensive in-city delivery requirements. These widely acclaimed vehicles offer superior maneuverability, visibility

and ergonomic design — significant advantages in congested metropolitan areas.

KENMEX also introduced a new low-cab-forward Kenworth L700. With its strong chassis, tight turning circle,

excellent visibility and spacious interior, this model is especially well-suited for the harsh demands of waste

disposal and specialty construction markets.

KENMEX celebrated its 45th anniversary and production of its 100,000th truck — a T800 Aerocab — with

Mexico’s President Vicente Fox attending the festive occasion.

The Kenworth insignia is synonymous with heavy-duty trucking throughout Mexico, prized for the superior product

quality, dealer network, financial services and aftermarket support it represents.

Leyland, the United Kingdom’s leading truck manufacturer, delivered a record 15,000



quality vehicles to customers throughout Europe in 2004.  Leyland increased

production capacity substantially to satisfy demand for DAF and Foden vehicles.

In its world-class 600,000-square-foot manufacturing facility, Leyland produces a highly complex mix of

Foden, one of the most respected nameplates in the United Kingdom, extended its

customer-support network by adding new sales and service outlets.  Export sales of



Foden’s Alpha range nearly doubled in 2004.

Foden’s celebrated Alpha range offers many advanced features that enhance the drivability, productivity and

profitability of heavy-duty trucks. During 2004, Foden broadened its appeal to fleets with the addition of the

AS-Tronic automatic-shift gearbox as an option on most models. Updates to the product, including options to

suit a range of telecommunications needs and safety features to suit U.K. fleet-safety programs, enhanced

Foden’s market presence.

Strengthening its aftermarket service capability, Foden launched Managed Dealer Inventory (MDI)

throughout its dealer network. PACCAR’s state-of-the-art dealer parts-replenishment system electronically

manages dealer inventories and parts availability — improving customer satisfaction.

Foden claimed top honors during Truck magazine’s prestigious annual multiaxle Tip-In event, in which all

makes of trucks are evaluated for performance, drivability and productivity in quarry operations. The eight-

wheeled Alpha chassis was highlighted for its product quality and earning capability.

Foden’s Alpha range — exemplified by this multi-axle rigid model — has achieved wide recognition for rugged-

duty reliability, operating efficiency, enhanced productivity and driver satisfaction.

Overview:
PACCAR is a multinational company whose princi-
pal businesses include the design, manufacture and
distribution of high-quality, light-, medium- and
heavy-duty commercial trucks and related aftermar-
ket parts. A portion of the Company’s revenues and
income is derived from the financing and leasing 
of its trucks and related equipment. The Company 
also manufactures and markets industrial winches.
In 2004, heavy-duty truck industry retail sales in

the U.S. and Canada increased 42% to 233,000
units. Peterbilt and Kenworth achieved a record
24.6% combined market share compared to 23.5%
in 2003.

In Europe, PACCAR’s other major market, DAF
and Foden truck sales and revenues improved 31%
over the prior year due to an increase in customer
demand for DAF’s industry-leading products and a
positive impact from the increase in the value of the
euro versus the U.S. dollar. PACCAR’s DAF truck
brand increased its share of the 15 tonne and above
market to 12.8% from 12.7% in 2003.

PACCAR’s net income in 2004 was a record
$906.8 million ($5.16 per diluted share), on record
revenues of $11.40 billion. This compares to 2003
net income of $526.5 million ($2.99 per diluted



share) on revenues of $8.19 billion. Net income
increased in 2004 primarily due to improved truck
and aftermarket parts sales and margins in the
Company’s primary markets due to increased
demand and an improvement in Financial Services
pre-tax income.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A)
expense for Truck and Other increased to $390.4
million in 2004 compared to $345.0 million in 
2003. However, as a percent of sales, SG&A expense
decreased to a record low of 3.6% in 2004 from
4.5% in 2003. SG&A increased to support higher
production levels and technology investments. In
addition, the weaker U.S. dollar had the effect of
increasing SG&A by approximately $18 million.
Financial Services revenues increased 19% to
$562.6 million in 2004. Financial Services income
before taxes increased to a record $168.4 million
compared to $123.6 million in 2003 as a result of
strong asset growth, lower credit losses and excellent
finance margins.

Investment income of $59.9 million in 2004 was

$18.6 million higher than the prior year due to
higher cash and marketable debt securities balances
and gains of $14.1 million from the sale of equity
securities.

Income taxes as a percentage of pretax income
were 33.7% in 2004 compared to 34.6% in 2003. The
lower effective tax rate in 2004 was primarily due to
a $9.5 million benefit arising from higher expected
utilization of NOL carryforwards acquired in 1998
at a United Kingdom subsidiary.

Truck
PACCAR’s truck segment, which includes the manu-
facture and distribution of trucks and related after-
market parts, accounted for 94% of revenues in
2004 and 93% of revenues in 2003 and 2002. In
North America, trucks are sold under the Kenworth
and Peterbilt nameplates and, in Europe, under the
DAF and Foden nameplates.

2004 Compared to 2003:
PACCAR’s worldwide truck sales and revenues
increased $3.10 billion to $10.76 billion in 2004 pri-
marily due to higher demand for heavy-duty trucks
in all of the Company’s primary markets and a 
$330.3 million impact due to the weaker U.S. dollar.
Worldwide truck deliveries were 124,100 units, com-
pared to 93,000 units in 2003.

Truck income before taxes was $1.14 billion com-

pared to $655.4 million in 2003. The increase from
the prior year was the result of higher production
rates, aftermarket parts sales volume and truck mar-
gins, as well as a $52.9 million favorable impact of
the weaker U.S. dollar.

Retail sales of new Class 8 trucks in the U.S. and
Canada totaled 233,000 units in 2004, an increase of
42% from the 2003 level of 164,000. PACCAR’s Class
8 market share in the U.S. and Canada increased to
24.6% in 2004. Kenworth and Peterbilt improved
their share of the U.S. and Canada Class 6 and 7
truck market in 2004 to 9.7%.

The European 15 tonne and above truck market
improved to 239,000 units. DAF Trucks increased its
share of the European heavy-duty market to 12.8%
from 12.7% in 2003. DAF market share also increased
to 8.9% from 8.7% in the 6 to 15 tonne market.
Sales in Europe represented approximately 34% 
of PACCAR’s total Truck and Other net sales and
revenue in 2004, compared to 35% in 2003.

PACCAR also has a significant market presence in
Mexico and Australia. Combined sales and profits of
Mexico and Australia were higher by 33% and 46%,
respectively, in 2004 compared to 2003. These mar-
kets represented approximately 11% of sales and 15%
of profits during 2004, compared to 11% of sales and
18% of profits in 2003.

Sales and profits from trucks sold to export
customers in South America, Africa and Asia 
also improved in 2004 versus 2003.

PACCAR’s worldwide aftermarket parts revenues
of $1.47 billion increased in 2004 compared to 2003.
Parts operations in North America and Europe bene-
fited from a growing truck population and the fur-
ther integration of PACCAR technology with dealer
business systems to improve responsiveness to cus-
tomer needs.

In November 2004, PACCAR concluded an early
termination agreement with the RAC plc regarding
the distribution of Leyland aftermarket parts to 
DAF dealers and customers in the United Kingdom.
PACCAR’s 2004 Truck segment results include a
$33.3 million pretax charge for costs associated 
with the agreement. Effective October 1, 2005, the
related parts will be stored and distributed from the
Company’s new parts distribution center at Leyland.

Research and development expense totaled $103.2

million in 2004, an increase of $22.1 million from
2003, reflecting additional projects focused on new
truck designs, technological innovations and contin-
ued improvement in industry-leading product quality.

2003 Compared to 2002:
PACCAR’s worldwide truck sales and revenues
increased $928.0 million to $7.66 billion in 2003
primarily due to higher truck sales in Europe and a
$485 million positive impact from the increase in the
value of the euro versus the U.S. dollar. Truck income
before taxes was $655.4 million compared to $482.5
million in 2002. The increase from the prior year was
the result of higher margins, ongoing cost-reduction
programs and a $55 million favorable impact of the
weaker U.S. dollar.

Retail sales of new Class 8 trucks in the U.S. and
Canada totaled 164,000 units in 2003, comparable
to the 2002 level of 166,000. PACCAR’s Class 8
market share in the U.S. and Canada was also
similar to 2002.

The European 15 tonne and above truck market

decreased slightly to 218,000 units. DAF Trucks
increased its share of the European heavy-duty
market to 12.7% from 12.0% in 2002. Sales in
Europe represented approximately 35% of
PACCAR’s total Truck and Other net sales and
revenue in 2003, compared to 31% in 2002.

PACCAR’s worldwide aftermarket parts revenues

increased in 2003 compared to 2002. Parts opera-
tions in North America and Europe benefited from 
a growing truck population, the addition of a parts
warehouse in the U.K. and successful integration of
PACCAR technology with dealer business systems 
to improve parts availability.

Truck Outlook
Demand for heavy-duty trucks in the U.S. and
Canada is expected to improve 15% to 20% in 2005,
with industry retail sales expected to be 270,000 -
280,000 trucks. European heavy-duty registrations
for 2005 are projected to be up slightly from 2004 at
240,000 - 250,000 units.

Financial Services
The Financial Services segment, which includes
wholly owned subsidiaries in the United States,
Canada, Mexico, Australia and Europe, derives 
its earnings primarily from financing or leasing
PACCAR products. The Company’s 49% joint
venture investment in DAF Financial Services was
sold in 2004 for $39.8 million, which approximated 
book value.

2004 Compared to 2003:
Financial Services revenues increased 19% to $562.6
million in 2004 compared to the prior year due to
higher asset levels in the Company’s primary oper-
ating markets. New business volume was $3.12 bil-
lion, up 38%, reflecting higher truck sales and
improved leasing market share. Assets in Europe
continued to grow in PACCAR Financial Europe’s
third full year of operation.

Income before taxes increased 36% to a record
$168.4 million in 2004 compared to $123.6 million
in 2003. The improvement was primarily due to
higher finance margins in the U.S., Canada and
Europe and lower credit losses in the U.S. and
Canada. Credit losses for the Financial Services
segment were $12.2 million in 2004, compared to
$24.2 in 2003. The lower credit losses reflect fewer
truck repossessions and higher used truck prices.
The increase in finance margins in the U.S. and
Canada was due to higher earning assets and a lower
cost of funds, partially offset by a lower yield. The
increase in finance margins in Europe was due to 
an increase in earning assets.

2003 Compared to 2002:
Financial Services revenues increased 10% to $473.8
million in 2003 compared to the prior year due to
higher assets, primarily in Europe.

Income before taxes increased 71% to $123.6
million in 2003 compared to $72.2 million in 2002.
The improvement was primarily due to higher
finance margins in the U.S., Canada and Europe 
and lower credit losses in the U.S. and Canada.

Financial Services Outlook
The outlook for the Financial Services segment is
principally dependent on the generation of new
business and the level of credit losses experienced.
Asset growth is likely in Europe, the U.S. and
Canada, consistent with the anticipated improve-
ment in the truck markets and the resulting increase
in truck sales. The segment continues to be exposed
to the risks that economic weakness, as well as
higher fuel, interest rates and insurance costs, could

exert pressure on the profit margins of truck opera-
tors and result in higher past-due accounts and
repossessions.



Other Business
Included in Truck and Other is the Company’s
winch manufacturing business. Sales from this
business represent less than 1% of net sales for
2004, 2003 and 2002.

As more fully explained in Note B of the consoli-

dated financial statements, the Company changed 
its presentation of some lending activities on new
trucks in its consolidated statement of cash flows in
2004. These lending activities were reclassified from
investing to operating cash flows. Prior year cash
flows were reclassified to conform to the current
year presentation. The change had no impact on 
the Company’s net income, total cash flows or the
cash and liquidity position of the Company.

The Company’s total cash and marketable debt
securities increased $495.4 million over 2003. The
higher balances result from cash inflows from opera-
tions, a portion of which was used to pay dividends,
make capital additions, and repurchase PACCAR
stock.

The Company has $1.5 billion in multiyear bank
facilities available. The credit facilities, $750 million
of which matures in 2005 and another $750 million
of which matures in 2006, are primarily used to
provide backup liquidity for the Financial Services
commercial paper program. The Company’s strong
liquidity position and AA- investment grade credit
rating continue to provide financial stability and
access to capital markets at competitive interest rates.

Truck and Other
The Company provides funding for working capital,
capital expenditures, research and development,
dividends and other business initiatives and com-
mitments primarily from cash provided by opera-
tions. Management expects this method of funding
to continue in the future.

Long-term debt and commercial paper were
$36.2 million as of December 31, 2004, and con-
sisted of fixed and floating rate Canadian dollar
debt for the construction of the Company’s truck
assembly facility in Quebec in 1999.

Expenditures for property, plant and equipment

in 2004 totaled $231 million as compared to $111
million in 2003. Over the last five years, the Com-
pany’s worldwide capital spending, excluding the
Financial Services segment, totaled $643 million.

Spending for capital investments in 2005, includ-

ing new product development, is expected to in-
crease from 2004 levels. PACCAR is investing in
state-of-the-art technology to improve product
design and quality, increase capacity, achieve effi-
ciencies in business processes and enhance the
distribution network, as well as develop new
manufacturing tooling to support product
development plans.

The American Jobs Creation Act (the AJCA),
which was signed into law on October 22, 2004, cre-
ated a special one-time 85% tax deduction for cer-
tain repatriated foreign earnings that are reinvested
in qualifying domestic activities, as defined in the
AJCA. The Company may elect to apply this provi-
sion to qualifying earnings repatriations in the year
ending December 31, 2005. The Company is in the
process of evaluating the effects of the repatriation
provision and expects to complete its evaluation
after its assessment of clarifying guidance published
by Congress or the Treasury Department. The maxi-
mum amount the Company is eligible to repatriate
under the AJCA is approximately $1.5 billion. The
estimated tax provision that would be required on
this amount would be approximately $70 million.
If any amount is repatriated, it would likely be less
than the maximum with a proportional reduction 
in the estimated provision for income taxes.

Financial Services
The Company funded its financial services activi-
ties primarily from collections on existing finance
receivables and borrowings in the capital markets.
An additional source of funds was loans from other
PACCAR companies in the Truck segment.

The primary sources of borrowings in the
capital market are commercial paper and publicly
issued medium-term notes and, to a lesser extent,
bank loans. The majority of the medium-term
notes are issued by PACCAR’s largest financial
services subsidiary, PACCAR Financial Corp.
(PFC). PFC periodically files a shelf registration
under the Securities Act of 1933. On December 31,
2004, $1.85 billion of such securities remained
available for issuance.

In September 2004, PACCAR’s European finance

subsidiary, PACCAR Financial Europe, registered 
a €750 million Euro Medium Term Note Program
with the Luxembourg Exchange. On December 31,
2004, €450 million remained available for issuance.
This program is renewable annually through the
filing of a new prospectus.

To reduce exposure to fluctuations in interest
rates, the Financial Services companies pursue a
policy of structuring borrowings with interest-rate
characteristics similar to the assets being funded. As
part of this policy, the companies use interest-rate
contracts. The permitted types of interest-rate con-
tracts and transaction limits have been established
by the Company’s senior management, who receive
periodic reports on the contracts outstanding.

PACCAR believes its Financial Services compa-

nies will be able to continue funding receivables
and servicing debt through internally generated
funds, lines of credit and access to public and
private debt markets.

At the end of 2004, the Company had approxi-

in Note L of the consolidated financial statements,
borrowings consist primarily of term debt and com-
mercial paper of the Financial Services segment.
Approximately $4.8 billion of the cash commitments
were related to the Financial Services segment. The
Company expects to fund its maturing Financial Ser-
vices debt obligations principally from funds pro-
vided by collections from customers on loans and
lease contracts, as well as from the proceeds of com-
mercial paper and medium-term note borrowings.
Other obligations include deferred cash compensa-

I M PA C T   O F   E N V I R O N M E N TA L   M AT T E R S :
The Company, its competitors and industry in gen-
eral are subject to various domestic and foreign
requirements relating to the environment. The
Company believes its policies, practices and proce-
dures are designed to prevent unreasonable risk of
environmental damage and that its handling, use
and disposal of hazardous or toxic substances have
been in accordance with environmental laws and
regulations enacted at the time such use and dis-
posal occurred.

Expenditures related to environmental activities
were $2.4 million in 2004, $1.2 million in 2003 and
$1.9 million in 2002.

The Company is involved in various stages of

investigations and cleanup actions in different
countries related to environmental matters. In
certain of these matters, the Company has been
designated as a “potentially responsible party” by
domestic and foreign environmental agencies. The
Company has provided for the estimated costs to
investigate and complete cleanup actions where it 
is probable that the Company will incur such costs
in the future.

The Company’s estimated range of reasonably
possible costs to complete cleanup actions, where 
it is probable that the Company will incur such
costs and where such amounts can be reasonably
estimated, is between $21.0 million and $49.8
million. The Company has established a reserve 
to provide for estimated future environmental
cleanup costs.

While the timing and amount of the ultimate
costs associated with environmental cleanup matters
cannot be determined, management does not expect
that these matters will have a material adverse effect
on the Company’s consolidated cash flow, liquidity
or financial condition.

C R I T I C A L   A C C O U N T I N G   P O L I C I E S :
In the preparation of the Company’s financial state-
ments, in accordance with Accounting Principles
Generally Accepted in the United States, manage-
ment uses estimates and makes judgments and
assumptions that affect asset and liability values and
the amounts reported as income and expense during
the periods presented. The following are accounting
policies which, in the opinion of management, are
particularly sensitive and which, if actual results are
different, may have a material impact on the finan-
cial statements.

Operating Leases
The accounting for trucks sold pursuant to agree-
ments accounted for as operating leases is discussed
in Notes A and G of the consolidated financial state-
ments. In determining its estimate of the residual
value of such vehicles, the Company considers the
length of the lease term, the truck model and antici-
pated market demand and the expected usage of the
truck. If the sales price of the trucks at the end of
the term of the agreement differs significantly from
the Company’s estimate, a gain or loss will result.
The Company believes its residual-setting policies
are appropriate; however, future market conditions,
changes in government regulations and other factors
outside the Company’s control can impact the ulti-
mate sales price of trucks returned under these con-
tracts. Residual values are reviewed regularly and
adjusted downward if market conditions warrant.

Allowance for Credit Losses
The establishment of credit loss reserves on finan-
cial services receivables is dependent on estimates,
including assumptions regarding collectibility of
past due accounts, repossession rates and the recov-
ery rate on the underlying collateral. The Company
believes its reserve-setting policies adequately take
into account the known risks inherent in the finan-
cial services portfolio. If there are significant varia-
tions in the actual results from those estimates, the
provision for credit losses and operating earnings
may be adversely impacted.

Product Warranty
The expenses related to product warranty are esti-
mated and recorded at the time products are sold
based on historical data regarding the source, fre-
quency, and cost of warranty claims. Management
believes that the warranty reserve is appropriate and

takes actions to minimize warranty costs through
quality-improvement programs; however, actual
claims incurred could differ from the original
estimates, requiring adjustments to the reserve.

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
The Company’s accounting for employee pension
and other postretirement benefit costs and obliga-
tions is governed by the pronouncements of the
Financial Accounting Standards Board. Under these
rules, management determines appropriate assump-
tions about the future, which are used by actuaries
to estimate net costs and liabilities. These assump-
tions include discount rates, health care cost trends,
inflation rates, long-term rates of return on plan
assets, retirement rates, mortality rates and other
factors. Management bases these assumptions on
historical results, the current environment and rea-
sonable expectations of future events. Actual results
that differ from the assumptions are accumulated
and amortized over future periods and, therefore,
generally affect expense in such future periods.
While management believes that the assumptions
used are appropriate, significant differences in
actual experience or significant changes in assump-
tions would affect pension and other postretirement
benefit costs and obligations. See Note M of the
Financial Statements for more information regard-
ing costs and assumptions for employee benefit
plans.

Description of Operations: PACCAR Inc (the
Company or PACCAR) is a multinational company
operating in two segments: (1) the manufacture 
and distribution of light-, medium- and heavy-duty
commercial trucks and related aftermarket parts and
(2) finance and leasing products and services pro-
vided to customers and dealers. PACCAR’s sales and
revenues are derived primarily from North America
and Europe. The Company also operates in Australia
and sells trucks and parts outside its primary mar-
kets to customers in Asia, Africa and South America.
Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly owned domestic and
foreign subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions are eliminated in consoli-
dation. The equity method of accounting is used for
investments in companies where PACCAR has a 20%
to 50% non-controlling ownership interest.

Change in Presentation of the Consolidated

Statement of Cash Flows: As more fully explained in
Note B, the Company changed its presentation of
some lending activities on new trucks in its consoli-
dated statement of cash flows in 2004.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires
management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash equivalents con-

sist of short-term liquid investments with a matu-
rity at date of purchase of three months or less.

Long-lived Assets, Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets: The Company evaluates the carrying value 
of long-lived assets (including property and equip-
ment, goodwill and other intangible assets) when
events and circumstances warrant such a review.
Goodwill is also reviewed for impairment on an
annual basis. There were no impairment charges 
for the three years ended December 31, 2004.

Revenue Recognition: Substantially all sales and

revenues of trucks and related aftermarket parts 
are recorded by the Company when products are
shipped to dealers or customers, except for certain
truck shipments that are subject to a residual value
guarantee to the customer. Revenues related to these
shipments are recognized on a straight-line basis
over the guarantee period (see Note G).

Interest income from finance and other receiv-

ables is recognized using the interest method.
Certain loan origination costs are deferred and
amortized to interest income. For operating leases,
rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis
over the lease term. Recognition of interest income
and rental revenue are suspended when manage-
ment determines that collection is not probable
(generally after 90 days past the contractual due
date). Recognition is resumed if the receivable
becomes contractually current and the collection 
of amounts is again considered probable.

Foreign Currency Translation: For most of

PACCAR’s foreign subsidiaries, the local currency 
is the functional currency. All assets and liabilities
are translated at year-end exchange rates and all
income statement amounts are translated at the
weighted average rates for the period. Adjustments
resulting from this translation are recorded in other

23-54_Financials-cvo225.qxd  2/25/05  5:40 AM  Page 35

December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 (currencies in millions except per share amounts)

comprehensive income (loss), a component of
stockholders’ equity.

At December 31, 2004, the value of the U.S.
dollar was lower than the euro and other primary
functional currencies of the Company at December
31, 2003. This had the effect of increasing stock-
holders’ equity by $166.7.

PACCAR uses the U.S. dollar as the functional
currency for its Mexican subsidiaries. In addition, the
Company’s Netherlands subsidiaries generally use the
euro as the functional currency for their subsidiaries.
Accordingly, for these subsidiaries, inventories,
cost of sales, property, plant and equipment, and
depreciation were translated at historical rates.
Resulting gains and losses are included in net income.
Research and Development: Research and develop-
ment costs are expensed as incurred and included as
a component of cost of sales in the accompanying
consolidated statements of income. Amounts
charged against income were $103.2 in 2004, $81.1
in 2003 and $56.0 in 2002.

Earnings per Share: Diluted earnings per share
are based on the weighted average number of basic
shares outstanding during the year adjusted for the
dilutive effect of stock options under the treasury
stock method.

Stock-Based Compensation: Effective January 1,
2003, PACCAR prospectively adopted FAS No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, for all
new employee stock option awards. As the expense
of stock options is recognized over the vesting
period, amounts included in net income in 2004 and
2003 are less than if the fair value method had been
applied retroactively.

Through the end of 2002, PACCAR used the
intrinsic value method of accounting for its stock
compensation plans. Under the intrinsic value
method, when the exercise price of option grants
equals the market value of the underlying common
stock at the date of grant, no compensation expense
is reflected in the Company’s net income.

The estimated fair value of stock options granted

during 2004, 2003 and 2002 was $18.87, $9.82 and
$9.31 per share. These amounts were determined
using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing
model, which values options based on the stock price
at the grant date, and the following assumptions:

2004
3.11%

2003

2002
3.21% 4.50%

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued FAS No. 123R, Share-Based
Payment. The standard is effective beginning with
the first interim or annual reporting period ending
after June 15, 2005. Since the Company has already
adopted the expensing provisions of FAS 123, the
adoption of FAS 123R is not expected to have a sig-
nificant impact on the Company’s consolidated
results of operations or financial position.

See Note R for a description of PACCAR’s stock

compensation plans.

After review of concerns recently expressed by 
the staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission regarding the cash flow presentation of
lending activities of companies with captive finance
subsidiaries, such as PACCAR, the Company has
decided to change the classification of the cash flow
effects of some lending activities in the consolidated
statement of cash flows in 2004 as follows:

1) Dealer wholesale financing for the payment of
a substantial portion of trade receivables is provided

The Company’s investments in marketable securities
are classified as available-for-sale. These investments
are stated at fair value with any unrealized holding
gains or losses, net of tax, included as a component
of stockholders’ equity until realized. Gross realized
gains and losses on marketable debt securities were
$5.1 and $.7 for the year ended December 31, 2003.
Gross realized gains and losses on marketable debt
securities were not significant in 2004 or 2002.
Unrealized losses are charged against net earnings
when a decline in fair value is determined to be other
than temporary. Gross unrealized losses at December
31, 2004 and 2003, were not significant.

The cost of debt securities available-for-sale is
adjusted for amortization of premiums and accre-
tion of discounts to maturity. Amortization of pre-
miums, accretion of discounts, interest and dividend
income and realized gains and losses are included in
investment income. The cost of securities sold is
based on the specific identification method.

the related trade receivables was shown in the oper-
ating section even though on a consolidated basis,
cash is not received on the related sale until pay-
ment is received on the wholesale balance. This had
the effect of presenting an operating cash flow as an
investing cash flow. The net changes in new truck
wholesale financing have been reclassified from the
investing to the operating section of the cash flow
statement to eliminate the effects of intercompany
transactions in arriving at operating cash flows.

2) Certain dealers enter into long-term leases of
PACCAR trucks with their customers and fund these
activities by entering into a corresponding loan or
sales-type lease with the Company’s finance sub-
sidiaries. Previously these transactions were treated
as a payment of the trade receivable in the operating
section and as a component of finance receivables
originated in the investing section. The subsequent
receipts were shown as a component of collections
on finance receivables in the investing section. Since
on a consolidated basis, cash on the original sale is
received by PACCAR when payments are received on
these loans and sales-type leases, the related origi-
nations and the collections have been removed from
the investing section of the cash flow statement. The
net change in sales-type finance leases and dealer
direct loans on new trucks is now shown in the
operating section.

The majority of the Company’s customers are
located in the United States, which represented 56%
of total receivables at December 31, 2004, and 60%
at December 31, 2003. Terms for substantially all
finance and other receivables range up to 60
months. Repayment experience indicates some
receivables will be paid prior to contract maturity,
while some others will be extended or renewed.

Included in Loans are dealer direct loans on the
sale of new trucks of $124.2 and $82.4 as of December
31, 2004, and December 31, 2003.

The cash flow effects of sales-type leases, dealer
direct loans and wholesale financing of new trucks
are shown as operating cash flows in the consoli-
dated statement of cash flows since they finance the
sale of company inventory.

Annual payments due on loans beginning
January 1, 2005, are $1,215.4, $891.1, $652.3,
$370.6, $158.0 and $18.7 thereafter.

Annual minimum lease payments due on finance
leases beginning January 1, 2005, are $610.7, $513.0,
$389.9, $259.5, $147.2 and $75.0 thereafter. Estimated
residual values included with finance leases
amounted to $137.9 in 2004 and $129.6 in 2003.

The provision for losses on finance, trade and other
receivables is charged to income in an amount
sufficient to maintain the allowance for losses at a
level considered adequate to cover estimated credit
losses. Receivables are charged to this allowance
when, in the judgment of management, they are
deemed uncollectible (generally upon repossession
of the collateral).

The allowance for losses on Truck and Other and
Financial Services receivables is summarized as follows:

The Company’s customers are principally con-
centrated in the transportation industry in North
America and Europe. There are no significant
concentrations of credit risk in terms of a single
customer. Generally, Financial Services and trade
receivables are collateralized by financed equipment.

Truck and Other:
Certain equipment sold to customers in Europe sub-
ject to a residual value guarantee (RVG) is recorded
at cost and amortized on the straight-line basis to
its guaranteed residual value. Guarantee periods
generally range from three to seven years. The

Product support reserves include warranty reserves
related to new products sales, as well as reserves
related to optional extended warranties and repair
and maintenance (R&M) contracts. The Company
generally offers one-year warranties covering most
of its vehicles and related aftermarket parts. Specific
terms and conditions vary depending on the prod-
uct and the country of sale. Optional extended war-
ranty and R&M contracts can be purchased for
periods which generally range up to five years.
Warranty expenses and reserves are estimated and
recorded at the time products or contracts are sold
based on historical data regarding the source, fre-
quency and cost of claims. PACCAR periodically
assesses the adequacy of its recorded liabilities and
adjusts the reserves as appropriate to reflect actual
experience.

issued by PACCAR Financial Corp. (PFC) and
PACCAR Financial Europe (PFE). PFC periodically
files a shelf registration under the Securities Act 
of 1933. PFC filed a $3,000.0 shelf registration that
became effective in January of 2004. On December
31, 2004, $1,850.0 of such securities remained avail-
able for issuance. In September 2004, PFE registered
a €750.0 Euro Medium Term Note Program with the
Luxembourg Exchange that provides for the issuance
of senior debt securities with maturities of up to five
years. On December 31, 2004, €450.0 of such securi-
ties remained available under the program.

The Company has line of credit arrangements of

$1,760.9, most of which are reviewed annually for
renewal. The unused portion of these credit lines was
$1,704.6 at December 31, 2004, of which the major-
ity is maintained to support commercial paper and
other short-term borrowings of the financial services
companies. Compensating balances are not required
on the lines, and service fees are immaterial.

PACCAR has several defined benefit pension plans,
which cover a majority of its employees.

The Company evaluates its actuarial assumptions

on an annual basis and considers changes based
upon market conditions and other factors.

The Company funds its pensions in accordance
with applicable employee benefit and tax laws. The
Company elected to contribute $58.4 to its pension
plans in 2004 and $75.8 in 2003. The Company
expects to contribute in the range of $25.0 to $60.0
to its pension plans in 2005, of which $12.0 is esti-
mated to satisfy minimum funding requirements.
Annual benefits expected to be paid beginning
January 1, 2005, are $29.1, $32.4, $33.3, $38.1, $41.2,
and for the five years thereafter, a total of $269.5.
Plan assets are invested in a diversified mix of

equity and debt securities through professional
investment managers with the objective to achieve
targeted risk adjusted returns and maintain liquidity
sufficient to fund current benefit payments.
Allocation of plan assets may change over time
based upon investment manager determination of
the relative attractiveness of equity and debt securi-
ties. The Company periodically assesses allocation
of plan assets by investment type and evaluates
external sources of information regarding the long-
term historical returns and expected future returns
for each investment type.

The following information details the allocation

The Company has certain defined contribution
benefit plans whereby it generally matches employee
contributions of 2% to 5% of base wages. The
majority of participants in these plans are non-
union employees located in the United States.
Expenses for these plans were $18.5, $16.1 and $15.0
in 2004, 2003 and 2002.

In addition, the Company maintains postretire-
ment medical and life insurance plans covering the
majority of its U.S. employees. The medical and life
insurance plans generally reimburse those employ-
ees from retirement until age 65 for approximately
50% of their medical costs and provide a nominal
death benefit.

At December 31, 2004, the Company’s net tax

operating loss carryforwards were $272.0.
Substantially all of the loss carryforwards are in for-
eign subsidiaries and carry forward indefinitely,
subject to certain limitations under applicable laws.
The future tax benefits of net operating loss carry-
forwards are evaluated on an ongoing basis, includ-
ing a review of historical and projected operating
results. The Company’s evaluation in 2004 resulted
in a $9.5 reduction in the valuation reserve related
to net operating loss carryforwards at its subsidiary
Leyland Trucks Ltd. in the United Kingdom.

United States income taxes and foreign withhold-

ing taxes are not provided on undistributed earn-
ings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries because
of the intent to reinvest these earnings. The amount
of undistributed earnings, which are considered to
be indefinitely reinvested, is approximately $2,708.5
at December 31, 2004.

The American Jobs Creation Act (the AJCA),
which was signed into law on October 22, 2004, cre-
ated a special one-time 85% tax deduction for cer-
tain repatriated foreign earnings that are reinvested
in qualifying domestic activities, as defined in the
AJCA. The Company may elect to apply this provi-
sion to qualifying earnings repatriations in the year
ending December 31, 2005. The Company is in the
process of evaluating the effects of the repatriation
provision and expects to complete its evaluation
after its assessment of clarifying guidance published
by Congress or the Treasury Department. The maxi-
mum amount the Company is eligible to repatriate
under the AJCA is approximately $1,500. The esti-
mated tax provision that would be required on this
amount would be approximately $70. If any amount
is repatriated, it would likely be less than the maxi-
mum, with a proportional reduction in the estimated
provision for income taxes.

Cash paid for income taxes was $418.7, $246.0

and $114.6 in 2004, 2003 and 2002.

The following methods and assumptions were used
by the Company in determining its fair value disclo-
sures for financial instruments:

Cash and Equivalents: The carrying amount
reported in the balance sheet is stated at fair value.
Marketable Debt and Equity Securities: Amounts

are carried at fair value. Fair values are based on
quoted market prices (see Note C).

Financial Services Net Receivables: For floating-
rate loans and wholesale financings, fair values are
based on carrying values. For fixed-rate loans, fair
values are estimated using discounted cash flow
analysis based on interest rates currently being
offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers 
of similar credit quality. The carrying amount of
accrued interest and other receivables approximates
its fair value. Finance lease receivables and the
related loss provisions have been excluded from 
the accompanying table.

Short- and Long-term Debt: The carrying amount
of the Company’s commercial paper and short-term
bank borrowings and floating-rate long-term debt
approximates its fair value. The fair value of the
Company’s fixed-rate long-term debt is estimated
using discounted cash flow analysis, based on the
Company’s current incremental borrowing rates 
for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Derivative Instruments: Derivative instruments
are carried at fair value. Fair values for the Com-
pany’s interest-rate contracts are based on costs that
would be incurred to terminate existing agreements
and enter into new agreements with similar notional
amounts, maturity dates and counterparties’ credit
standing at current market interest rates (see Note
Q). The fair value of foreign exchange contracts is
the amount the Company would receive or pay to
terminate the contracts. This amount is calculated
using quoted market rates (see Market Risks and
Derivative Instruments).

Trade Receivables and Payables: Carrying

amounts approximate fair value.

Balance sheet captions, which include financial

instruments of the Company where the recorded
carrying amount is not at fair value, are as follows:

tigations and cleanup actions in different countries
related to environmental matters. In certain of
these matters, the Company has been designated 
as a “potentially responsible party” by domestic and
foreign environmental agencies. The Company has
provided for the estimated costs to investigate and
complete cleanup actions where it is probable that
the Company will incur such costs in the future.

While neither the timing nor the amount of the
ultimate costs associated with future environmental
cleanup can be determined, management does not
expect that those matters will have a material ad-
verse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial
position.

Expenditures related to environmental activities
were $2.4 in 2004, $1.2 in 2003 and $1.9 in 2002. The
Company’s estimated range of reasonably possible
costs to complete cleanup actions, where it is proba-
ble that the Company will incur such costs and 
where such amounts can be reasonably estimated,
is between $21.0 and $49.8. The Company has estab-
lished a reserve to provide for estimated future
environmental cleanup costs.

At December 31, 2004, PACCAR had standby
letters of credit of $23.1, which guarantee various
insurance and financing activities. PACCAR had also
guaranteed $5.9 in borrowings of certain indepen-
dent dealers. The guarantees expire between March
2006 and March 2008. The maximum potential
amount of future payments PACCAR could be re-
quired to make under the guarantees is $5.9. As of
December 31, 2004, PACCAR had recorded a liability
of $.2 for outstanding guarantees. The Company is
committed, under specific circumstances, to purchase
equipment at a cost of $30.4 in 2005, $14.9 in 2006
and $8.1 in 2007. At December 31, 2004, PACCAR’s
Financial Services companies, in the normal course
of business, had outstanding commitments to fund
new loan and lease transactions amounting to $289.9.

The commitments generally expire in 90 days. The
Company had commitments to purchase primarily
production inventory amounting to $77.4 in 2005,
$10.6 annually from 2006 to 2010 and $2.7 in 2011.
In November 2004, the Company concluded an early
termination agreement with the RAC plc regarding
the distribution of Leyland aftermarket parts to 
DAF dealers and customers in the United Kingdom.
Accordingly, PACCAR’s 2004 consolidated results 
of operations include a $33.3 pretax charge for costs
associated with the agreement. The Company’s liabil-
ity for future payments related to the termination
amounted to $25.9 at December 31, 2004.

PACCAR is a defendant in various legal proceed-

ings and, in addition, there are various other con-
tingent liabilities arising in the normal course of
business. After consultation with legal counsel,
management does not anticipate that disposition 
of these proceedings and contingent liabilities will
have a material effect on the consolidated financial
statements.

The Company does not engage in derivatives trad-
ing, market-making or other speculative activities.
Derivative financial agreements are used as hedges
to manage exposures to fluctuations in interest rates
and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company
documents its risk management strategy and hedge
effectiveness at the inception of and during the term
of each hedge. Minimum credit ratings of the coun-
terparties to these agreements are established and
the Company limits its exposure to any single coun-
terparty. At December 31, 2004, the Company had
no material exposure to loss in the event of counter-
party default.

Interest-Rate Contracts: The Company enters into

various interest-rate contracts, including interest-
rate and currency swap, cap and forward-rate agree-
ments. Interest-rate contracts generally involve the
exchange of fixed and floating rate interest payments
without the exchange of the underlying principal.
These contracts are used to manage exposures to
fluctuations in interest rates. Net amounts paid 
or received are reflected as adjustments to interest
expense. At December 31, 2004, the Company had
278 interest-rate contracts outstanding with other
financial institutions. The notional amount of these
contracts totaled $3,125.2, with amounts expiring
annually over the next five years. The notional
amount is used to measure the volume of these
contracts and does not represent exposure to credit
loss. In the event of default by a counterparty, the

risk in these transactions is the cost of replacing the
interest-rate contract at current market rates. The
total fair value of all interest-rate contracts amounted
to an asset of $16.2 and a liability of $34.6 at
December 31, 2004. Fair values at December 31, 2003,
amounted to an asset of $5.8 and a liability of $50.9.
Floating to fixed rate swaps effectively convert an

equivalent amount of commercial paper and other
variable rate debt to fixed rates. Notional maturities
for the five years beginning January 1, 2005, are
$1,109.4, $987.4, $717.2, $229.2 and $82.0. The
weighted average pay rate of 3.47% approximates
the Company’s net cost of funds. The weighted aver-
age receive rate of 2.57% offsets rates on associated
debt obligations.

Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: PACCAR
enters into foreign currency exchange contracts to
hedge certain anticipated transactions denominated
in foreign currencies. PACCAR has currency ex-
change exposure for the value of the U.S. dollar
compared to the Canadian dollar, the euro and the
British pound. With respect to Europe, PACCAR 
has currency exposure for the value of the euro
compared to the British pound and other national
currencies in Europe. As a matter of policy, the
Company does not engage in currency speculation.
Foreign exchange contracts mature within one 
year. The maximum amount of loss that could be
incurred associated with foreign exchange purchase
contracts is equal to the fair value of the contracts
($9.3 at December 31, 2004). PACCAR had net
foreign exchange purchase contracts outstanding
amounting to $399.6 and $327.2 U.S. dollars at
December 31, 2004 and 2003.

Derivative assets are included in the accompany-
ing consolidated balance sheets, in Truck and Other
“Deferred taxes and other current assets” and Finan-
cial Services “Other assets.” Derivative liabilities are
included in Truck and Other “Accounts payable and
accrued expenses” and “Deferred taxes and other
liabilities” and in Financial Services “Accounts
payable, accrued expenses and other.”

Gains or losses on the effective portion of deriva-

tives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges
that arise from changes in fair value are initially
reported in other comprehensive income. The
remaining gain or loss, if any, is recognized cur-
rently in earnings. Hedge ineffectiveness was
immaterial. Amounts in accumulated other
comprehensive income are reclassified into net
income in the same period in which the hedged
forecasted transaction affects earnings. Net realized
gains and losses from foreign exchange contracts 
are recognized as an adjustment to cost of sales. Net

December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 (currencies in millions except share and per share amounts)

realized gains and losses from interest-rate contracts
are recognized as an adjustment to interest expense.
Of the accumulated net loss included in other com-
prehensive income as of December 31, 2004, $10.6 
is expected to be reclassified to interest expense in
2005. The fixed interest earned on finance receiv-
ables will offset the amount recognized in interest
expense, resulting in a stable interest margin consis-
tent with the Company’s interest-rate risk manage-
ment strategy.

under these plans is 20.7 million. As of December 31,
2004, the maximum number of shares available for
future grants under these plans is 9.9 million. Op-
tions currently outstanding under these plans were
granted with exercise prices equal to the fair market
value of the Company’s common stock at the date 
of grant. Options currently expire no later than 10
years from the grant date and generally vest within
three years. Stock option activity is as follows:

Stockholder Rights Plan: The plan provides one right
for each share of PACCAR common stock outstand-
ing. Rights become exercisable if a person publicly
announces the intention to acquire 15% or more of
PACCAR’s common stock or if a person (Acquiror)
acquires such amount of common stock. In all cases,
rights held by the Acquiror are not exercisable. When
exercisable, each right entitles the holder to purchase
for two hundred dollars a fractional share of Series A
Junior Participating Preferred Stock. Each fractional
preferred share has dividend, liquidation and voting
rights which are no less than those for a share of
common stock. Under certain circumstances, the
rights may become exercisable for shares of PACCAR
common stock or common stock of the Acquiror
having a market value equal to twice the exercise
price of the right. Also under certain circumstances,
the Board of Directors may exchange exercisable
rights, in whole or in part, for one share of PACCAR
common stock per right. The rights, which expire 
in the year 2009, may be redeemed at one cent per
right, subject to certain conditions. For this plan,
50,000 preferred shares are reserved for issuance.
No shares have been issued.

PACCAR operates in two principal segments, Truck
and Financial Services.

The Truck segment includes the manufacture of

trucks and the distribution of related aftermarket
parts, both of which are sold through a network of
company-appointed dealers. This segment derives 
a large proportion of its revenues and operating
profits from operations in the United States and
Europe.

The Financial Services segment is composed of
finance and leasing products and services provided
to truck customers and dealers. Revenues are pri-
marily generated from operations in the United
States and Europe.

Included in All Other is PACCAR’s industrial
winch manufacturing business. Also within this
category are other sales, income and expense not
attributable to a reportable segment, including a
portion of corporate expense. Intercompany interest
income on cash advances to the financial services
companies is included in All Other and was $10.8,
$9.3 and $9.2 for 2004, 2003 and 2002. Geographic
revenues from external customers are presented
based on the country of the customer.

PACCAR evaluates the performance of its Truck
segment based on operating profits, which excludes
investment income, other income and expense 
and income taxes. The Financial Services segment’s
performance is evaluated based on income before
income taxes.

The management of PACCAR Inc (the Company) is responsible for establishing and maintaining satisfactory
internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to pro-
vide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial state-
ments for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements because of its inherent
limitations. 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
and procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004,

based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control —
Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
Based on this assessment, we concluded that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2004.

Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting

has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, an Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, as stated in 
their report.

Board of Directors and Stockholders
PACCAR Inc

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of PACCAR Inc as of December 31, 2004 and
2003, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, comprehensive income and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements 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 audit to obtain reasonable assur-
ance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consoli-

dated financial position of PACCAR Inc at December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the consolidated results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004, in conformity
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States), the effectiveness of PACCAR Inc’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31,
2004, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated February 23, 2005, expressed an
unqualified opinion thereon.

We have audited management’s assessment, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal
Control over Financial Reporting, that PACCAR Inc maintained effective internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria).
PACCAR Inc’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting
and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal
control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assur-
ance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating man-
agement’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

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 pur-
poses 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 reason-
able detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) pro-
vide 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 com-
pany; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisi-
tion, 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 mis-

statements. 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, management’s assessment that PACCAR Inc maintained effective internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the COSO crite-
ria. Also, in our opinion, PACCAR Inc maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board

(United States), the consolidated balance sheets of PACCAR Inc as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the
related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, comprehensive income and cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004, of PACCAR Inc, and our report dated February 23,
2005, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

dividends because they are dependent upon future earnings, capital requirements and financial conditions.
