NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The condensed consolidated financial statements of Tecumseh Products
Company and Subsidiaries (the "Company") are unaudited and reflect all
adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
position and operating results for the interim periods. The December 31,
2002 condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial
statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles. The condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002. Due to the seasonal nature of the
Company's business, the results of operations for the interim period are
not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year.
2. Inventories consisted of:

Raw material and work in process $168.8 $164.3

Total Inventories $332.2 $304.0
================================================================================
3. In an effort to more effectively compete in a business environment plagued
by worldwide production over-capacity and low cost foreign-sourced
product, the Company has undertaken a number of strategic initiatives
designed to reduce production costs and improve overall productivity and
product quality by consolidating and relocating production capabilities,
both domestically and internationally.
As a result of these initiatives, the Company recorded a $28.5 million
restructuring and impairment charge ($18.2 million net of tax or $0.99 per
share), during the second quarter of 2003 related to the Engine & Power
Train business consolidation and related plant closings. The restructuring
includes the closure of the Company's Douglas, Georgia and Sheboygan
Falls, Wisconsin production facilities, and the relocation of certain
production capacities to the new Curitiba, Brazil facility and other
existing U.S. locations. The closings affect approximately 550 and 250
people at the Douglas and Sheboygan Falls facilities, respectively. The
charge, which has been recognized in accordance with SFAS No. 144
"Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" and SFAS
No. 146 "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal
Activities," includes approximately $6.8 million in earned severance and
future benefit costs relating to manpower reductions, $2.0 million in
plant closing and exit costs incurred through June 30, 2003, and $19.7
million in asset impairment charges for idled equipment and facilities.
The amount of severance and future benefit costs mentioned above includes
$0.8 million in curtailment losses related to the pension plan at the
Sheboygan Falls, Wisconsin facility.
Page 5
TECUMSEH PRODUCTS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION - ITEM 1
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
Under SFAS No. 146, severance payments that require future service to be
received is accrued as earned and other costs are only recognized to the
extent a liability has been incurred. Accordingly, under the restructuring
plan, the Company expects to recognize additional plant closing and exit
costs of $3.4 million, and a curtailment gain of $4.4 million related to
other post-employment benefits at the Sheboygan Falls, Wisconsin facility
in the third, and possibly, fourth quarters of 2003.
As of June 30, 2003, manufacturing operations at the Douglas, Georgia
facility had ceased and approximately 90% of the employees had been
dismissed. Through June 30, 2003 the Company had paid approximately
$0.3 million in severance costs and $1.6 million in closing and exit
costs related to the Engine & Power Train business restructuring action.
During the first quarter of 2002, a restructuring charge of $4.5 million
($2.8 million or $0.15 per share, net of tax) was taken in connection with
the relocation of the production of additional rotary compressor product
lines to Brazil from the United States and consists of the write-off of
certain equipment which cannot be used in Brazil.

5. The Company has been named by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
("EPA") as a potentially responsible party ("PRP") in connection with the
Sheboygan River and Harbor Superfund Site in Wisconsin. In May 2000, the
EPA issued a Record of Decision ("ROD") selecting the remedy for the Site.
The Company is one of several named PRP's in the proposed cleanup action.
The EPA has estimated the cost of cleanup at $40.9 million. Additionally,
the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources ("WDNR"), as a Natural
Resource Trustee, is investigating what additional requirements, if any,
the state may have beyond those specified under the ROD.
The EPA has indicated its intent to address the Site in two phases, with
the plant site and upper river constituting the first phase ("Phase I")
and the middle and lower river and harbor being the second phase ("Phase
II"). In March 2003, the Company entered into a Consent Decree concerning
the performance of remedial design and remedial action for Phase I. This
Consent Decree is awaiting final approval by the U.S. Department of
Justice. Negotiation of a Consent Decree regarding Phase II has yet to
commence.
On March 25, 2003, with the cooperation of the EPA, the Company and
Pollution Risk Services, LLC ("PRS") entered into a Liability Transfer and
Assumption Agreement (the "Agreement"). Under the terms of the Agreement,
PRS assumed all of the Company's responsibilities, obligations and
liabilities for remediation of the entire Site and the associated costs,
except for certain specifically enumerated liabilities. Also, as required
by the Agreement, PRS has purchased Remediation Cost Cap insurance in the
amount of
Page 6
TECUMSEH PRODUCTS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION - ITEM 1
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
$100,000,000 and Environmental Site Liability insurance in the amount of
$20,000,000. The Company believes such insurance coverage will provide
additional assurance for completion of the responsibilities, obligations
and liabilities assumed by PRS under the Agreement.
The cost of the liability transfer arrangement to the Company was $39.2
million. The Company recognized a nonrecurring charge of $13.6 million
($8.7 million net of tax) in the first quarter. The charge consists of
the difference between the cost of the arrangement and amounts previously
accrued for the cleanup. The Company continues to maintain a reserve of
$0.5 million to reflect its potential environmental liability arising from
operations at the Site, including potential liabilities not assumed by
PRS pursuant to the arrangement.
It is the intent of the Company, PRS and the EPA to negotiate provisions
that would add PRS as a PRP by amendment to the Consent Decree, which
requires the approval of the U.S. Department of Justice. Until such
approval is received, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles require
that the Company continue to record the full amount of the estimated
remediation liability of $39.7 million and a corresponding asset of $39.2
million included in Other Assets in the balance sheet. While the Company
believes the arrangements with PRS are sufficient to satisfy substantially
all of the Company's environmental responsibilities with respect to the
Site, these arrangements do not constitute a discharge or release of the
Company's liabilities with respect to the Site. The actual cost of this
obligation will be governed by numerous factors including the requirements
of the WDNR, and may be greater or lower than the amount accrued.
With respect to other environmental matters, the Company, in cooperation
with the WDNR, conducted an investigation of soil and groundwater
contamination at the Company's Grafton, Wisconsin plant. It was determined
that contamination from petroleum and degreasing products used at the
plant are contributing to an off-site groundwater plume. The Company began
remediation of soils in 2001 on the east side of the facility. Additional
remediation of soils began in the fall of 2002 in two other areas on the
plant site. While the Company has provided for estimated investigation and
on-site remediation costs, the extent and timing of future off-site
remediation requirements, if any, are not presently determinable.
The WDNR requested that the Company join it in a cooperative effort to
investigate and clean up PCB contamination in the watershed of the south
branch of the Manitowoc River, downstream of the Company's New Holstein,
Wisconsin facility. Despite the fact that the WDNR's investigation does
not establish the parties responsible for the PCB contamination, the WDNR
has indicated that it believes the Company is a source and that it expects
the Company to participate in the cleanup. The Company has participated in
the first phase of a cooperative cleanup, consisting of joint funding of
the removal of soils and sediments in the source area near its facility.
The next phase of the cooperative effort is scheduled to occur in 2003
involving a segment downstream of the source area. The Company has
provided for these costs. Although participation in a cooperative remedial
effort after 2003 for the balance of the watershed is under consideration,
it is not possible to reasonably estimate the cost of any such
participation at this time.
Page 7
TECUMSEH PRODUCTS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION - ITEM 1
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
In addition to the above mentioned sites, the Company is also currently
participating with the EPA and various state agencies at certain other
sites to determine the nature and extent of any remedial action which may
be necessary with regard to such other sites. At June 30, 2003 and
December 31, 2002, the Company had accrued $46.8 million and $36.3
million, respectively, for environmental remediation, including the
amounts noted above relating to the Sheboygan River and Harbor Superfund
Site. As these matters continue toward final resolution, amounts in excess
of those already provided may be necessary to discharge the Company from
its obligations for these sites. Such amounts, depending on their amount
and timing, could be material to reported net income in the particular
quarter or period which they are recorded. In addition, the ultimate
resolution of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate,
could be material to the consolidated financial statements.
6. The Company is also the subject of, or a party to, a number of other
pending or threatened legal actions involving a variety of matters
incidental to its business. Although the ultimate outcome of these matters
cannot be predicted with certainty, and some may be disposed of
unfavorably to the Company, management has no reason to believe that their
disposition will have a materially adverse effect on the consolidated
financial position or results of operations of the Company.

7. The Company has four reportable segments based on the criteria set forth
in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131 "Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information": Compressor
Products, Electrical Component Products, Engine & Power Train Products,
and Pump Products. With the acquisition of the FASCO Motors Group
("FASCO") on December 30, 2002, the Company created the Electrical
Component Products operating segment. In addition to FASCO, the segment
includes certain North American electrical component manufacturing that
was previously reported in the Compressor Business. Prior year business
segment data has been reclassified to conform to the Company's current
presentation. Revenues and operating income by segment for the periods

(b) "Other" consists of non-reportable business segments, primarily MDSI.
8. The cumulative effect from an accounting change of $4.8 million ($3.1

the Company adopting Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets"
Page 9
TECUMSEH PRODUCTS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION - ITEM 1
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
effective January 1, 2002. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill is no longer
amortized, but is subject to impairment testing on at least an annual
basis. As required by SFAS No. 142, the Company tested for impairment at
the date of adoption and found that the goodwill associated with the
Engine & Power Train European operations had been impaired.
9. On March 5, 2003, the Company completed a private placement of $300
million Senior Guaranteed Notes due March 5, 2011. These notes bear
interest at a fixed rate of 4.66%. Proceeds from the private placement
were used to repay a $250 million bridge loan and pay down borrowings
under the Company's revolving credit facility. On March 31, 2003, the
remaining $25 million outstanding under the revolver was repaid from
available cash resources.
10. On December 30, 2002, the Company acquired FASCO from Invensys Plc for
cash of $396.6 million and the assumption of approximately $14.5 million
in debt. During the second quarter of 2003, the Company received $14.1
million in cash for purchase price adjustments relating to working capital
and employee benefit related items. These proceeds are reflected in the
Statement of Cash Flows under "Business acquisition, net of cash
acquired."
Also during the quarter, the Company completed formal tangible and
intangible asset valuations for FASCO. Adjustments to preliminary amounts
recorded in purchase accounting are reflected in the June 30, 2003 balance
sheet. The effect of these adjustments decreased net property, plant and
equipment by $35.2 million, increased definite-lived intangibles subject
to amortization by $31.6 million, and increased goodwill and
indefinite-lived intangibles by $3.6 million.
The changes in intangible assets were as follows:

11. A portion of export accounts receivable at the Company's Brazilian
subsidiary are sold with recourse. Brazilian export receivables sold at
June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 were $64.2 million and $41.2 million,
respectively. The Company estimates the fair value of the contingent
liability related to these receivables to be $0.1 million, which is
included in operating income and allowance for doubtful accounts.
A provision for estimated future warranty costs and estimated returns for

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Consolidated net sales for the second quarter of 2003 were $482.3 million,
compared to $395.3 million in the second quarter of 2002. Consolidated net sales
for the six months ended June 30, 2003 amounted to $956.2 million compared to
$728.7 million in the first half of 2002. The net increase of $227.5 million for
the first half of the year is attributable to FASCO sales of $209.3 million, and
higher sales in the Engine & Power Train segment offset by a decline in the
Compressor segment.
Consolidated net loss for the second quarter of 2003 amounted to $6.5 million or
$0.35 per share compared to net income of $23.4 million or $1.27 per share in
the second quarter of 2002. Consolidated net loss for the six months ended June
30, 2003 amounted to $4.1 million or $0.22 per share compared to net income of
$27.5 million or $1.49 per share for the same period in 2002. Included in the
2003 first half results are restructuring and impairment charges and other items
of $28.5 million ($18.2 million net of tax or $0.99 per share) related to the
consolidation of operations in the Engine & Power Train business and related
closings and $13.6 million ($8.7 million net of tax or $0.47 per share) related
to environmental costs at the Company's Sheboygan Falls, Wisconsin facility.
First half 2003 operating results were also reduced by $4.2 million ($2.7
million net of tax or $0.15 per share) due to the expensing of inventory
write-ups recorded as part of purchase accounting for the FASCO acquisition.
Under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, inventory acquired in a
purchase transaction is required to be written up to "fair value" from cost then
recognized in cost of sales as the inventory is sold. This one time event
occurring during the first quarter of 2003 will not impact future results.
Included in the 2002 first half results are restructuring charges of $4.5
million ($2.8 million net of tax or $0.15 per share) related to the relocation
of certain compressor manufacturing operations from the United States to Brazil
and the cumulative effect of an accounting change for goodwill ($3.1 million net
of tax or $0.17 per share) related to the adoption of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets".
Exclusive of restructuring, impairment and other one-time charges, second
quarter results were lower than the prior year due to: weaker results in all of
the Company's business segments, the unfavorable impact of a weak U.S. dollar,
interest charges on the Company's acquisition related debt, and increased
corporate spending primarily related to the integration of FASCO.
Compressor Products
Second quarter 2003 sales in the Company's Compressor business decreased to
$223.1 million from $241.0 million in the second quarter of 2002. This decrease
was primarily attributable to a 62% decline in U.S. export sales of compressors
used for air conditioning due to the effects of the war in Iraq, and the
increase in sourcing from Asian manufacturers. In addition, the cool, wet spring
resulted in aftermarket sales in the U.S. falling behind last year by 9%. These
declines were partially offset by gains in sales of compressors used in
refrigeration applications as the Company's Brazilian and Indian operations grow
their respective market share. Compressor

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION - ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
business sales in the first six months of 2003 declined $6.3 million, or
approximately 1.5%, from the first six months of 2002. Sales trends for the
first half of 2003 were consistent with the most recent quarter.
Compressor business operating income for the second quarter of 2003 amounted to
$19.5 million compared to $28.1 million in the second quarter of 2002. Operating
income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 amounted to $40.4 million compared
to $43.1 million for the first six months of 2002. The decrease in operating
income for the second quarter of 2003 versus the comparable 2002 quarter
reflects several factors including lower sales volumes in key segments,
unfavorable foreign currency movements, and lower product margins. The decline
in U.S. export and aftermarket volumes reduced the profitability of the
segment's U.S. operations. Domestic volumes in Brazil were also lower due to a
worsening of the local economy as interest rates remained high to control
inflation. The strengthening of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. Dollar
resulted in remeasurement losses on U.S. Dollar denominated receivables,
particularly early in the quarter when the Real strengthened rapidly, versus
remeasurement gains in the second quarter of 2002 when the Brazilian Real was
weakening in anticipation of Brazilian elections. The weak U.S. Dollar also
narrowed margins on U.S. Dollar denominated sales sourced from other foreign
operations. Lastly, margins also narrowed as a result of unfavorable product
mix, material cost increases in some locations, and lower average sales prices
in certain product categories. The decline in profitability experienced in the
second quarter 2003 compared to the same period in 2002, is in contrast to the
improvement experienced in the first quarter of 2003 where volumes were up over
the prior year first quarter and the effects of cost reduction efforts produced
positive results. As a result of these two contrasting quarters, the Compressor
business' operating results for the first half of 2003 were down 6.3% in
comparison to the same period in 2002.
Results from the Company's Brazilian compressor operations for the second
quarter of 2003 declined from the comparable prior year period, reflecting a
shift in mix to lower priced compressors, increased material and operating
costs, lower domestic volumes, and the foreign currency effects noted above.
Despite these declines, Brazilian operations remain a key to future
competitiveness, and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003
represented 47% and 57% of operating income for the Compressor business compared
to 35% and 41%, respectively for the comparable periods in 2002.
Operations in India continued their positive trend, contributing 17% and 14% of
the Compressor business' operating income for the second quarter and six month
2003 periods, respectively. Increases in both domestic and export volumes were
responsible for the improvement in Indian operations.
Electrical Component Products
With the acquisition of FASCO, the Company has created a new operating segment.
In addition to FASCO, the segment includes certain North American electrical
component manufacturing that was previously reported in the Compressor business.
Prior year business segment data, as
Page 12
TECUMSEH PRODUCTS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION - ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
presented in the table titled "Results by Business Segments (Unaudited)," has
been reclassified to conform to the Company's current presentations.
Electrical Components sales were $106.5 million in the second quarter of 2003,
including $104.0 million of sales from FASCO, compared to $2.0 million in the
second quarter of 2002. Year-to-date sales amounted to $214.3 million, including
$209.3 million of sales from FASCO, compared to $3.5 million in the first half
of 2002.
Segment operating profit for the quarter was $5.7 million compared to
$0.7 million in 2002. FASCO contributed $6.6 million in operating profit to the
second quarter of 2003. Segment operating profit for the first half of the year
was $7.6 million compared to $0.6 million for the same period in 2003. FASCO
contributed $9.7 million in operating profit to the first half of 2003. During
the first quarter of 2003, FASCO's results were reduced by $4.2 million ($2.7
million net of tax or $0.15 per share) for inventory adjustments required by
purchase accounting rules.
Engine & Power Train Products
Engine & Power Train business sales amounted to $113.6 million in the second
quarter of 2003 compared to $111.3 million in the second quarter of 2002. Sales
in the first half of 2003 were $243.9 million compared to $222.8 million in the
first half of 2002. The slight improvement in sales for the second quarter
reflects a favorable mix of product versus the prior year quarter and the
effects on translation of a weaker U.S. dollar. Engine unit deliveries were
actually lower during the quarter by 5% and 15% in the U.S. and Europe,
respectively, when compared to the same period in 2002. Sales for the first half
of the year reflect overall higher U.S. shipment volumes experienced during the
first quarter of 2003. However, these sales were predominantly in lower margin
engines used for walk behind rotary mowers.
Exclusive of restructuring and impairment charges, the Engine & Power Train
business incurred an operating loss of $6.7 million in the second quarter of
2003 compared to an operating profit of $2.1 million in the second quarter of
2002. For the first half of 2003, the business incurred an operating loss of
$10.4 million compared to an operating loss of $0.2 million in 2002. The
substantial decline in profitability of the segment in the second quarter is
attributable to numerous factors including: lower sales volumes, lower average
selling prices, higher costs of purchased parts and health care, and expenses
associated with the start-up of the new facility in Curitiba, Brazil. These
factors also explain the results for the first half of the year except that
higher unit volumes were offset by unfavorable mix.
Pump Products
Pump business sales in the second quarter of 2003 amounted to $39.0 million
compared to $40.7 million in 2002. Year-to-date sales amounted to $70.9 million
in 2003 compared to $69.0 million the previous year. The decline in second
quarter sales was primarily attributed to weaker sales in water gardening
products due to the cool, wet spring weather. The improvement in first half 2003
Page 13
TECUMSEH PRODUCTS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION - ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
sales was due to increased volumes in condensate products sold to the HVAC and
plumbing markets, and in industrial products sold through the aftermarket
distribution channel.
Operating income amounted to $4.9 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2003
compared to $6.2 million in the same period of 2002. Operating income in the
first half of 2003 decreased to $8.4 million from $9.1 million in 2002. The
decrease in operating income in the second quarter 2003 compared to 2002 is
attributable to lower sales volumes and increased administrative costs.
Restructuring Charges and Other Items
Second quarter 2003 results were adversely affected by a restructuring and
impairment charge of $28.5 million ($18.2 million net of tax or $0.99 per share)
related to the consolidation of operations in the Engine & Power Train business.
As previously announced, the restructuring includes the closure of the Company's
Douglas, Georgia and Sheboygan Falls, Wisconsin production facilities, and the
relocation of certain production capacities to the new Curitiba, Brazil facility
and other existing U.S. locations. The closings affect approximately 550 and 250
people at the Douglas and Sheboygan Fall facilities, respectively. The
restructuring and impairment charge, which has been recognized in accordance
with SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets" and SFAS No. 146 "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal
Activities," includes approximately $6.8 million in earned severance and future
benefit costs relating to manpower reductions, $2.0 million in plant closing and
exit costs incurred through June 30, 2003, and $19.7 million in asset impairment
charges for idled equipment and facilities. The amount of severance and future
benefit costs mentioned above includes $0.8 million in curtailment losses
related to the pension plan at the Sheboygan Falls, Wisconsin facility. Benefits
of the restructuring likely will not be noticeable until the first quarter of
2004 when the new facility is fully functional.
Under SFAS No. 146, severance payments that require future service to be
received is accrued as earned and other costs are only recognized to the extent
a liability has been incurred. Accordingly, under the restructuring plan, the
Company expects to recognize additional plant closing and exit costs of $3.4
million, and a curtailment gain of $4.4 million related to other post-employment
benefits at the Sheboygan Falls, Wisconsin facility in the third, and possibly,
fourth quarters of 2003.
As of June 30, 2003, manufacturing operations at the Douglas, Georgia facility
had ceased and approximately 90% of the employees had been dismissed. Through
June 30, 2003 the Company had paid approximately $0.3 million in severance
costs and $1.6 million in closing and exit costs related to the Engine & Power
Train business restructuring action.
First half 2003 results were adversely affected by a $13.6 million ($8.7 million
net of tax or $0.47 per share) charge, recognized in the first quarter, related
to environmental costs at the Company's Sheboygan Falls, Wisconsin facility. On
March 25, 2003, with the cooperation of the Environmental Protection Agency, the
Company entered into a liability transfer agreement with Pollution Risk
Services, LLC ("PRS"), whereby PRS assumed substantially all of the Company's
responsibilities, obligations and liabilities for remediation of the Sheboygan
River and Harbor Superfund Site (the "Site"). While the Company believes the
arrangements with PRS are sufficient to satisfy substantially all of the
Company's environmental responsibilities with respect to the Site, these
arrangements do not constitute a legal discharge or release of the Company's
liabilities with respect to the Site. The cost of the liability transfer
arrangement was $39.2 million.
Page 14
TECUMSEH PRODUCTS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION - ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
The charge consists of the difference between the cost of the arrangement and
amounts previously accrued for the cleanup. The Company also maintains a reserve
of $0.5 million to reflect its potential environmental liability arising from
operations at the Site, including potential liabilities not assumed by PRS
pursuant to the arrangement. Additional information is available in the
Company's Form 8-K filed on April 9, 2003.
First half 2002 results were adversely affected by a $4.5 million ($2.8 million
net of tax or $0.15 per share) restructuring charge in the Compressor segment
recognized in the first quarter. The charge relates to the decision to relocate
the production of additional rotary compressor product lines to Brazil from the
United States and consists of the write-down of certain equipment, which will
not be used in other operations.
Accounting Change
The cumulative effect from an accounting change of $4.8 million ($3.1 million
net of tax) recorded in the first quarter of 2002, resulted from the Company
adopting Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142 "Goodwill
and Other Intangible Assets" on January 1, 2002. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill is
no longer amortized, but is subject to impairment testing on at least an annual
basis. As required by the Statement, the Company tested for impairment at the
date of adoption and found that the goodwill associated with the Engine & Power
Train European operations had been impaired.
Interest Expense
Interest expense amounted to $6.2 million in the second quarter of 2003 compared
to $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2002. Interest expense amounted to
$11.5 million in the first half of 2003 compared to $2.1 million in the same
period of 2002. The increase is primarily related to the temporary and permanent
financing added in connection with the acquisition of FASCO. See "LIQUIDITY,
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND RISKS" for further information regarding this debt.
Interest Income and Other, Net
Interest income and other, net amounted to $5.2 million in the second quarter of
2003 compared to $3.0 million in the second quarter of 2002. Interest income and
other, net amounted to $10.1 million in the first half of 2003 compared to $5.8
million in the same period of 2002. This increase resulted primarily from higher
cash balances in Brazil.
Taxes on Income
The effective income tax rate was 36.0% in the second quarter of 2003 and first
half of the year, compared to 35.5% in the comparable periods of 2002.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Outlook
The outlook for the balance of the year remains somewhat uncertain. The
accretive impact of FASCO's results are expected to be positive, but results
from the Company's traditional Compressor, Engine & Power Train and Pump
segments are expected to be soft in relation to the prior year, reflecting
little economic growth, higher costs and the unfavorable effects of a weak U.S.
dollar.
Each of the Company's business segments operates in highly competitive
environments characterized by excess worldwide production capacity, new
competitors located in countries with lower labor costs, resulting in overall
price deflation. The Company's fundamental strategy to remain competitive is to
manufacture high volume commodity-like components in low cost manufacturing
locations, while providing final customization of engineered products to niche
markets near the point of consumption. As a result, it is still possible that
further restructuring actions will be necessary to realign the Company's
productive capabilities. Plans continue to be developed to determine how best to
further reorganize the Company's operations and product offerings in light of
current and rapidly changing market conditions.
LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND RISKS
Historically, the Company's primary source of cash has been net cash provided by
operations. Operating activities in the first half of 2003 used cash of $13.8
million compared to a source of $68.3 million in 2002. The greater use of cash
in 2003 resulted primarily from lower profitability, higher net working capital
needs, and the $39.2 cash payment for the Liability Transfer and Assumption
Agreement. Working capital of $543.0 million at June 30, 2003 was up slightly
from $503.7 million at the end of 2002.
Capital spending during the first half of 2003 was $31.6 million compared to
$35.0 million in the first half of 2002. Total capital spending for 2003 is
projected to remain near 2002 levels.
On December 30, 2002, the Company acquired FASCO from Invensys Plc for cash of
$396.6 million and the assumption of approximately $14.5 million in debt. The
acquisition was financed, in part, with proceeds from new bank borrowings
including $250 million from a six-month bridge loan and $75 million from a new
three-year $125 million revolving credit facility. On March 5, 2003, the Company
completed a private placement of $300 million Senior Guaranteed Notes due March
5, 2011. These notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.66%. Proceeds from the
private placement were used to repay the bridge loan and pay down borrowings
under the revolving credit facility. On March 31, 2003, the remaining $25
million outstanding on the revolver was repaid from available cash resources.
Working capital requirements, planned capital investment and stock repurchase
expenditures, if any, for 2003 are expected to be financed primarily through
internally generated funds; however, short-term borrowings and various financial
instruments are utilized from time to time to hedge currency risk and finance
foreign working capital requirements. As noted above, the Company
Page 16
TECUMSEH PRODUCTS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION - ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
maintains a $125 million revolving credit facility that is available for general
corporate purposes. The Company may also utilize long-term financing
arrangements in connection with state investment incentive programs.
The Company will continue to focus its efforts on improving the profitability
and competitiveness of its worldwide operations. It is likely that additional
production relocation and consolidation initiatives will take place during 2003
that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial position and
future results of operations of the Company. These initiatives could include
joint ventures or business combinations.
Environmental Matters
The Company is subject to various federal, state and local laws relating to the
protection of the environment, and is actively involved in various stages of
investigation or remediation for sites where contamination has been alleged.
(See Note 5 to the financial statements.) Liabilities, relating to probable
remediation activities, are recorded when the costs of such activities can be
reasonably estimated based on the facts and circumstances currently known.
Difficulties exist estimating the future timing and ultimate costs to be
incurred due to uncertainties regarding the status of laws, regulations, levels
of required remediation, changes in remediation technology and information
available.
At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the Company had accrued $46.8 and $36.3
million, respectively, for environmental remediation, including $40.2 and $29.2
million, respectively, relating to the Sheboygan River and Harbor Superfund
Site. As these matters continue toward final resolution, amounts in excess of
those already provided may be necessary to discharge the Company from its
obligations for these sites. Such amounts, depending on their amount and timing,
could be material to reported net income in the particular quarter or period in
which they are recorded. In addition, the ultimate resolution of these matters,
either individually or in the aggregate, could be material to the consolidated
financial statements.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company is exposed to risk during the normal course of business from credit
risk associated with accounts receivable and from changes in interest rates,
commodity prices and foreign currency exchange rates. The exposure to these
risks is managed through a combination of normal operating and financing
activities which include the use of derivative financial instruments in the form
of foreign currency forward exchange contracts and commodity forward purchasing
contracts. A discussion of the Company's policies and procedures regarding the
management of market risk and the use of derivative financial instruments was
provided in its Annual Report on Form 10-K in Item 7A and in Notes 1 and 10 of
the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company does not utilize
financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes. There have been
no changes in these policies or procedures during the first half of 2003.
The Company utilizes foreign currency forward exchange contracts to hedge
foreign currency receivables, payables and other known transactional exposures
for periods consistent with the expected cash flows of the underlying
transactions. The contracts generally mature within one year and are designed to
limit exposure to exchange rate fluctuations because gains and losses on the
hedged transactions offset gains and losses on the contracts. At June 30, 2003
and December 31, 2002, the Company held foreign currency forward exchange
contracts and foreign currency call options with total notional values in the
amount of $15.6 and $4.9 million, respectively.
The Company uses commodity forward purchasing contracts to help control the cost
of traded commodities, primarily copper and aluminum, used as raw material in
the production of compressor motors, electrical components and engines. Local
management is allowed to contract commodity forwards for a limited percentage of
projected raw material requirements up to one year in advance. The total values
of commodity forwards outstanding at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 were
$13.2 and $14.6 million, respectively.
