PART I -FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 1 -CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

INTRODUCTION TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     We have prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements of Lear Corporation and subsidiaries, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. We believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading when read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the period ended December 31, 2002.

     The financial information presented reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in our opinion, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and cash flows and statements of financial position for the interim periods presented. These results are not necessarily indicative of a full year’s results of operations.

LEAR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) Basis of Presentation

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lear Corporation (“Lear” or the “Parent”), a Delaware corporation, and the wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries controlled by Lear (collectively, the “Company”). Investments in affiliates, other than wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries controlled by Lear, in which Lear owns a 20% or greater interest are accounted for under the equity method.

     The Company and its affiliates are involved in the design and manufacture of interior systems and components for automobiles and light trucks. The Company’s main customers are automotive original equipment manufacturers. The Company operates facilities worldwide.

(2) Stock-Based Compensation

     The Company has adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” for the year ending December 31, 2003, under which compensation cost for grants of stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted units, performance shares and performance units (collectively, “Incentive Units”) and stock options is determined on the basis of the fair value of the Incentive Units and options at the grant date. SFAS No. 123 will be applied prospectively to all employee awards granted after January 1, 2003, as permitted under the provisions of SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure.” There were no employee awards granted in the first six months of 2003. The effect on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share, as if the fair value based method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards in each period, is shown below (in millions, except per share data):

(3) Restructuring

     In order to better align the Company’s operations and capacity in response to reductions in global automotive production volumes, the Company began to implement a restructuring plan in the fourth quarter of 2001. This restructuring plan was designed to consolidate certain operations and to improve overall efficiencies and the Company’s long-term competitive position.

     As of June 28, 2003, the restructuring plan was substantially complete. There are two facilities which remain to be closed and approximately 340 employees yet to be terminated. These remaining actions are expected to be completed in 2003.

     There have been no significant changes to the original restructuring plan as disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. A summary of the activity in the restructuring accrual is shown below (in millions):

(6) Goodwill

     On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” Under this statement, goodwill is no longer amortized but is subject to annual impairment analysis. The Company’s initial impairment analysis compared the fair values of each of its reporting units, based on discounted cash flow analyses, to the related net book values. As a result, the Company recorded impairment charges of $310.8 million ($298.5 million after tax) as of January 1, 2002. These charges are reflected as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, net of tax in the consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 29, 2002.

     A summary of the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill, by reportable operating segment, for the six months ended June 28, 2003 is shown below (in millions):

(7) Product Liabilities

     In the event that the Company’s products fail to perform as expected and such failure results in, or is alleged to result in, bodily injury and/or property damage or other losses, the Company may be subject to product liability lawsuits, warranty claims and product recalls. The Company can provide no assurances that it will not experience material claims in the future or that it will not incur significant costs to defend such claims. In addition, if any of the Company’s products are or are alleged to be defective, it may be required to participate in a recall or other corrective action involving such products.

     The Company records product warranty liabilities based on its individual customer agreements. Product warranty liabilities are recorded for known warranty issues when amounts related to such issues are probable and reasonably estimable. In addition, the Company records product warranty liabilities for amounts expected to be paid under warranty-sharing agreements with its customers.

     A summary of the changes in the product warranty liabilities for the six months ended June 28, 2003 is shown below (in millions):

     In June 2003, the Company reduced availability under its $500 million revolving credit facility to $250 million. As of June 28, 2003, the Company’s primary credit facilities consisted of a $1.7 billion amended and restated credit facility, which matures on March 26, 2006, a $250 million revolving credit facility, which matures on May 4, 2004, and a $500 million term loan, of which no amount was outstanding as of June 28, 2003.

     The Company’s primary credit facilities contain numerous restrictive covenants relating to the maintenance of certain financial ratios and to the management and operation of the Company. The covenants include, among other restrictions, limitations on indebtedness, guarantees, mergers, acquisitions, fundamental corporate changes, asset sales, investments, loans and advances, liens, dividends and other stock payments, transactions with affiliates and optional payments and modification of debt instruments. The senior notes also contain covenants restricting the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur liens and to enter into sale and leaseback transactions and restricting the ability of the Company to consolidate with, to merge with or into or to sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets.

     The Company’s obligations under its primary credit facilities and senior notes are guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, by certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. See Note 15, “Supplemental Guarantor Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements.”

(9) Net Income (Loss) Per Share

     Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the average share price during the period when calculating the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents. A summary of shares outstanding is shown below:

(10) Comprehensive Income (Loss)

     Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as all changes in a Company’s net assets except changes resulting from transactions with stockholders. It differs from net income (loss) in that certain items currently recorded in equity would be included in comprehensive income (loss). A summary of comprehensive income (loss) is shown below (in millions):

(11) Pre-Production Costs Related to Long-Term Supply Agreements

     The Company incurs pre-production engineering, research and development (“ER&D”) and tooling costs related to the products produced for its customers under long-term supply agreements. The Company expenses all pre-production ER&D costs for which reimbursement is not contractually guaranteed by the customer. In addition, the Company expenses all pre-production tooling costs related to customer-owned tools for which reimbursement is not contractually guaranteed by the customer or for which the customer has not provided a noncancelable right to use the tooling. During the first six months of 2003 and 2002, the Company capitalized $74.9 million and $62.1 million, respectively, of pre-production ER&D costs for which reimbursement is contractually guaranteed by the customer. In addition, during the first six months of 2003 and 2002, the Company capitalized $172.5 million and $171.2 million, respectively, of pre-production tooling costs related to customer-owned tools for which reimbursement is contractually guaranteed by the customer or for which the customer has provided a noncancelable right to use. During the six months ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, the Company collected $197.0 million and $232.2 million, respectively, of cash related to pre-production ER&D and tooling costs previously capitalized.

     Gains and losses related to pre-production ER&D and tooling projects are reviewed on an aggregated program basis. Net gains on projects are deferred and amortized over the life of the long-term supply agreement. Net losses on projects are recognized as costs are incurred in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force No. 99-5, “Accounting for Pre-Production Costs Related to Long-Term Supply Arrangements.”

(12) Segment Reporting

     The Company has three reportable operating segments: seating, interior and electronic and electrical. The seating segment includes seat systems and components thereof. The interior segment includes flooring and acoustic systems, door panels, instrument panels and cockpit systems, overhead systems and other interior products. The electronic and electrical segment includes electronic and electrical distribution systems, primarily wire harnesses, wireless systems and interior control systems. The Other category includes the corporate headquarters, geographic headquarters, the technology centers and the elimination of intercompany activities, none of which meet the requirements of being classified as an operating segment.

     The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments based primarily on revenues from external customers, income before interest, other expense and income taxes and cash flow, being defined as income before interest, other expense and income taxes less capital expenditures plus depreciation. A summary of revenues from external customers and other financial information by reportable operating segment is shown below (in millions):

(13) Financial Instruments

     Several of the Company’s European subsidiaries factor their accounts receivable with financial institutions. Such receivables are factored without recourse to the Company and are excluded from accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets as of June 28, 2003 and December 31, 2002. The amount of factored receivables was $150.5 million and $160.4 million as of June 28, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.

Asset-backed Securitization Agreement

     Under an asset-backed securitization facility (the “ABS facility”), the Company and several of its U.S. subsidiaries sell certain accounts receivables to a wholly-owned, consolidated, bankruptcy-remote special purpose corporation (Lear ASC Corporation). In turn, Lear ASC Corporation transfers undivided interests in up to $200 million of the receivables to bank-sponsored commercial-paper conduits. In May 2003, the ABS facility was amended to reduce the maximum purchases of adjusted accounts receivable to $200 million from $260 million to reflect anticipated availability and usage. As of June 28, 2003, the amount transferred to the conduits was $73.6 million. This amount is excluded from accounts receivable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of June 28, 2003. A discount on the sale of receivables of $0.8 million and $1.5 million was recognized in the three months ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, respectively, and $1.5 million and $2.8 million was recognized in the six months ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, respectively. This discount is reflected in other expense, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

     The Company retains a subordinated ownership interest in the pool of receivables sold to Lear ASC Corporation. As of June 28, 2003, $596.2 million had been transferred to Lear ASC Corporation, including $522.6 million of retained interests included in accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 28, 2003, which serve as credit enhancement for the facility. The Company continues to service the transferred receivables for an annual servicing fee. The conduit investors and Lear ASC Corporation have no recourse to the Company or its subsidiaries.

     Certain cash flows received from and paid to Lear ASC Corporation are shown below (in millions):

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

     Forward foreign exchange, futures and option contracts — The Company uses forward foreign exchange, futures and option contracts to reduce the effect of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on short-term, foreign currency denominated intercompany transactions and other known foreign currency exposures. Gains and losses on the derivative instruments are intended to offset gains and losses on the hedged transaction in an effort to reduce the earnings volatility resulting from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The principal currencies hedged by the Company include the Canadian Dollar, the European Euro and the Mexican Peso. Forward foreign exchange and futures contracts are accounted for as fair value hedges when the hedged item is a recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment. As of June 28, 2003, contracts representing $854.0 million of notional amount were outstanding with maturities of less than five months. As of June 28, 2003, the fair value of these contracts was approximately $(10.4) million. Forward foreign exchange, futures and option contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges when the hedged item is a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be paid or received relates to a recognized asset or liability. As of June 28, 2003, contracts representing $603.3 million of notional amount were outstanding with maturities of less than two years. As of June 28, 2003, the fair value of these contracts was approximately $(11.0) million.

     Interest rate swap contracts — The Company uses interest rate swap contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. Interest rate swap contracts which fix the interest payments of certain variable rate debt instruments are accounted for as cash flow hedges. Interest rate swap contracts which hedge the change in fair market value of certain fixed rate debt instruments are accounted for as fair value hedges. As of June 28, 2003, contracts representing $0.8 billion of notional amount were outstanding with maturity dates of December 2003 through May 2009. Of these contracts, $0.4 billion swap variable rate debt for fixed rate debt and $0.4 billion swap fixed rate debt for variable rate debt. The fair value of these interest rate swap agreements is subject to changes in value due to changes in interest rates. The fair value of these interest rate swap agreements as of June 28, 2003 was approximately $(8.4) million.

     As of June 28, 2003 and December 31, 2002, net losses of approximately $18.1 million and $26.5 million, respectively, related to derivative instruments and hedging activities were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. As of June 28, 2003, all cash flow hedges were scheduled to mature within two years, all fair value hedges of the Company’s fixed rate debt instruments were scheduled to mature within 71 months, and all fair value hedges of the Company’s foreign exchange exposure were scheduled to mature within five months. During the twelve month period ending June 26, 2004, the Company expects to reclassify into earnings net losses of approximately $19.9 million recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Such losses will be reclassified at the time the underlying hedged transactions are realized. During the three and six month periods ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, amounts recognized in the consolidated statements of operations related to changes in the fair value of cash flow and fair value hedges excluded from the effectiveness assessments and the ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of cash flow and fair value hedges were not material.

     Non-U.S. dollar financing transactions — The Company has designated its Euro-denominated senior notes (Note 8) as a net investment hedge of long-term investments in its Euro-functional subsidiaries. As of June 28, 2003, the amount recorded in cumulative translation adjustment related to the effective portion of the net investment hedge of foreign operations was approximately $(64.0) million.

(14) Accounting Pronouncements

     Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has issued SFAS No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” which is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies the accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended by SFAS No. 137 and SFAS No. 138. The Company does not expect the effects of adoption to be significant.

     Financial Instruments — The FASB has issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity,” which is effective for financial instruments issued or modified after May 31, 2003 and is effective for all other instruments at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. This statement requires liability recognition and fair value measurement for certain financial instruments. The Company does not expect the effects of adoption to be significant.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)

(15) Supplemental Guarantor Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements — (continued)

     Basis of Presentation — Certain of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) have unconditionally fully guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, the punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all of the Company’s obligations under the primary credit facilities and the indentures governing the Company’s senior notes, including the Company’s obligations to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the senior notes. The senior notes consist of $600 million aggregate principal amount of 7.96% senior notes due May 15, 2005, $800 million aggregate principal amount of 8.11% senior notes due May 15, 2009, 250 million EUR aggregate principal amount of 8.125% senior notes due 2008 and $640 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of zero-coupon convertible senior notes due 2022. The Guarantors under the indentures are Lear Operations Corporation, Lear Corporation Automotive Holdings (formerly, UT Automotive), Lear Seating Holdings Corp. #50, Lear Corporation EEDS and Interiors, Lear Corporation Automotive Systems, Lear Technologies, L.L.C., Lear Midwest Automotive, Ltd. Partnership, Lear Automotive (EEDS) Spain S.L. and Lear Corporation Mexico, S.A. de C.V. In lieu of providing separate unaudited financial statements for the Guarantors, the Company has included the unaudited condensed consolidating financial statements above. All supplemental guarantor condensed consolidating financial statements reflect Lear Operations Corporation, Lear Corporation Automotive Holdings, Lear Seating Holdings Corp. #50, Lear Corporation EEDS and Interiors, Lear Corporation Automotive Systems, Lear Technologies, L.L.C., Lear Midwest Automotive, Ltd. Partnership, Lear Automotive (EEDS) Spain S.L. and Lear Corporation Mexico, S.A. de C.V. as Guarantors for all periods presented. Management does not believe that separate financial statements of the Guarantors are material to investors. Therefore, separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the Guarantors are not presented.

     Distributions — There are no significant restrictions on the ability of the Guarantors to make distributions to the Company.

     Selling and Administrative Expenses — The Parent allocated $13.6 million and $14.7 million in the three months ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, respectively, and $45.9 million and $36.6 million in the six months ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, respectively, of corporate selling and administrative expenses to its operating subsidiaries. The allocations were based on various factors, which estimate usage of particular corporate functions, and in certain instances, other relevant factors, such as the revenues or the number of employees of the Company’s subsidiaries.

     Long-term debt of the Parent and the Guarantors — A summary of long-term debt of the Parent and the Guarantors on a combined basis is shown below (in millions):

LEAR CORPORATION

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

     We are the world’s largest automotive interior systems supplier based on net sales. Our net sales have grown rapidly from $7.3 billion for the year ended December 31, 1997 to $14.4 billion for the year ended December 31, 2002. The major sources of this growth have been new program awards and the implementation of a strategic acquisition plan to capitalize on supplier consolidation and globalization trends in the automotive industry. Our acquisitions have accounted for approximately two-thirds of our net sales growth over the past five years. Our customers are the major automotive manufacturers, including General Motors, Ford, DaimlerChrysler, BMW, Fiat, PSA, Volkswagen, Renault/Nissan, Toyota and Subaru.

     Demand for our products is directly related to automotive vehicle production. Automotive sales and production are cyclical and can be affected by numerous factors, including general economic conditions, labor relations issues and regulatory factors. In the second quarter of 2003, automotive production decreased 9% in North America and decreased 2% in Western Europe as compared to the second quarter of 2002.

     In addition to overall automotive vehicle production, our operating results are significantly impacted by the commercial success of the vehicle platforms for which we supply products and the market share of our customers. General Motors and Ford and their respective affiliates accounted for approximately 60% of our net sales in 2002. A loss of business with respect to a significant vehicle model could materially and negatively affect our operating results. Further, we continually evaluate alternatives with respect to non-competitive facilities, which may include realignment of our existing manufacturing capacity, plant shutdowns or similar actions.

     The collective bargaining agreements covering the United States unionized workforce of our three largest customers, General Motors, Ford and DaimlerChrysler, are scheduled to expire in September 2003. The failure of our customers to negotiate extensions of such collective bargaining agreements, or any other significant labor dispute involving us, our customers or our significant suppliers could materially and negatively affect our operating results.

     Our customers require us to reduce costs and at the same time, assume greater responsibility for the design, development, engineering and integration of interior products. Our profitability is dependent on our ability to implement product cost reductions in either our processes or those of our customers or to obtain similar reductions from our suppliers. Our profitability is also dependent on our ability to efficiently control program launch costs as well as changes in the timing of program launches.

     For a more detailed description of other factors that have had, or may in the future have, a significant impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations, please refer to “- Forward-Looking Statements” and Item 7, “- Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our year ended December 31, 2002.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended June 28, 2003 vs. Three Months Ended June 29, 2002

     Net sales were $4.1 billion in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to $3.8 billion in the second quarter of 2002, an increase of $309 million or 8.1%. New business net of selling price reductions and net foreign exchange rate fluctuations increased net sales by $300 million each. These increases were partially offset by the impact of lower vehicle production volumes, which combined with changes in platform and product mix negatively impacted net sales by $136 million in North America and by $153 million in Western Europe.

     Gross profit and gross margin were $353 million and 8.6% in the quarter ended June 28, 2003 as compared to $329 million and 8.7% in the quarter ended June 29, 2002. The positive impact of new business, net foreign exchange rate fluctuations and our direct cost reduction actions and other efficiencies, which contributed $23 million, $12 million and $21 million, respectively, to the increase in gross profit, was partially offset by the negative impact of lower vehicle production volumes. Lower vehicle production volumes combined with changes in platform and product mix, additional spending on program development in North America and product launch-related spending in Europe reduced gross profit by $32 million.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses, including research and development, were $142 million in the three months ended June 28, 2003 as compared to $133 million in the three months ended June 29, 2002. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and

administrative expenses were 3.5% in both the second quarters of 2003 and 2002. Increased marketing efforts related to Asian automotive manufacturers and net foreign exchange rate fluctuations contributed $3 million and $6 million, respectively, to the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.

     Interest expense was $48 million in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to $52 million in the second quarter of 2002. Our reduced debt balance and lower interest rates favorably impacted interest expense by approximately $3 million and $4 million, respectively, and were partially offset by net foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

     Other expense, which includes state and local taxes, foreign exchange gains and losses, minority interest in consolidated subsidiaries, equity in net income of affiliates, gains and losses on the sales of fixed assets and other miscellaneous expenses, was $15 million in the three months ended June 28, 2003 as compared to $16 million in the three months ended June 29, 2002. An increase in losses on the sales of fixed assets and the negative impact of net foreign exchange rate fluctuations were more than offset by a decrease in state and local taxes and the positive impact of the performance of our joint ventures.

     The provision for income taxes was $45 million, representing an effective tax rate of 30.0%, in the current quarter as compared to $43 million, representing an effective tax rate of 33.5%, in the same quarter a year ago. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily the result of our overall tax planning strategy as well as the mix of our earnings outside the United States. The effective tax rates for the second quarters of 2003 and 2002 approximated the United States Federal statutory income tax rate of 35%, adjusted for income taxes on foreign earnings, losses and remittances, valuation adjustments, research and development credits and other items.

     Net income in the first three months of 2003 was $104 million, or $1.54 per diluted share, as compared to $86 million, or $1.27 per diluted share, in the first three months of 2002.

Reportable Operating Segments

     The financial information presented below is for our three reportable operating segments for the periods presented. These segments are: seating, which includes seat systems and the components thereof; interior, which includes flooring and acoustic systems, door panels, instrument panels and cockpit systems, overhead systems and other interior products; and electronic and electrical, which includes electronic and electrical distribution systems, primarily wire harnesses, wireless systems and interior control systems. Financial measures regarding each segment’s income before interest, other expense and income taxes and income before interest, other expense and income taxes divided by net sales (“margin”) are not measures of performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Such measures are presented because we evaluate the performance of our reportable operating segments, in part, based on income before interest, other expense and income taxes. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, net cash provided by operating activities or other income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP, or as measures of profitability or liquidity. In addition, these measures, as we determine them, may not be comparable to related or similarly titled measures reported by other companies. For a reconciliation of consolidated income before interest, other expense and income taxes to income before provision for income taxes and cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, refer to Note 12, “Segment Reporting.”

Seating

     Seating net sales were $2.8 billion in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to $2.6 billion in the second quarter of 2002, an increase of $255 million or 9.9%. New business net of selling price reductions and net foreign exchange rate fluctuations positively impacted net sales by $183 million and $220 million, respectively. These increases were partially offset by the impact of lower vehicle production volumes, which combined with the changes in platform and product mix negatively impacted net sales by $141 million. Income before interest, other expense and income taxes and the related margin on net sales were $189 million and 6.7% in the quarter ended June 28, 2003 as compared to $138 million and 5.4% in the quarter ended June 29, 2002. New business, net foreign exchange rate fluctuations and the benefit of our direct cost reduction actions and other efficiencies contributed $14 million, $6 million and $8 million, respectively, to the increase in income before interest, other expense and income taxes. Income before interest, other expense and income taxes also benefited from favorable platform and product mix, which together with the impact of lower vehicle production volumes contributed $23 million to the increase.

Interior

     Interior net sales were $705 million in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to $679 million in the second quarter of 2002, an increase of $27 million or 3.9%. New business net of selling price reductions and net foreign exchange rate fluctuations positively

impacted net sales by $52 million and $29 million, respectively. These increases were largely offset by the impact of lower vehicle production volumes, which combined with changes in platform and product mix negatively impacted net sales by $61 million. Income before interest, other expense and income taxes and the related margin on net sales were $25 million and 3.6% in the quarter ended June 28, 2003 as compared to $46 million and 6.7% in the quarter ended June 29, 2002. The impact of lower vehicle production volumes more than offset new business and the benefit from our direct cost reduction actions, which contributed an additional $4 million and $5 million, respectively, to income before interest, other expense and income taxes in the current period. Lower vehicle production volumes together with changes in platform and product mix, additional spending on program development in North America and product launch-related spending in Europe reduced income before interest, other expense and income taxes by $35 million. Net foreign exchange rate fluctuations also negatively impacted income before interest, other expense and income taxes by $3 million.

Electronic and Electrical

     Electronic and electrical net sales were $562 million in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to $534 million in the second quarter of 2002, an increase of $28 million or 5.2%. New business net of selling price reductions and net foreign exchange rate fluctuations positively impacted net sales by $65 million and $51 million, respectively. These increases were partially offset by the impact of lower vehicle production volumes, which combined with changes in platform and product mix negatively impacted net sales by $87 million. Income before interest, other expense and income taxes and the related margin on net sales were $51 million and 9.0% in the quarter ended June 28, 2003 as compared to $59 million and 11.0% in the quarter ended June 29, 2002. New business and net foreign exchange rate fluctuations contributed $5 million each, while the benefit from our direct cost reduction actions and other efficiencies contributed $4 million to the increase in income before interest, other expense and income taxes. These increases were more than offset by the impact of lower vehicle production volumes, which combined with changes in platform and product mix negatively impacted income before interest, other expense and income taxes by $20 million.

Six Months Ended June 28, 2003 vs. Six Months Ended June 29, 2002

     Net sales were $8.0 billion in the first six months of 2003 as compared to $7.3 billion in the first six months of 2002, an increase of $673 million or 9.2%. New business net of selling price reductions and net foreign exchange rate fluctuations increased net sales by $540 million and $516 million, respectively. These increases were partially offset by the impact of lower vehicle production volumes, which combined with changes in platform and product mix negatively impacted net sales by $130 million in North America and by $254 million in Western Europe.

     Gross profit and gross margin were $662 million and 8.3% in the six months ended June 28, 2003 as compared to $602 million and 8.2% in the six months ended June 29, 2002. The positive impact of new business, net foreign exchange rate fluctuations and our direct cost reduction actions and other efficiencies, which contributed $34 million, $27 million and $46 million, respectively, to the increase in gross profit, were partially offset by the negative impact of lower vehicle production volumes. Lower vehicle production volumes combined with changes in platform and product mix, additional spending on program development in North America and product launch-related spending in Europe reduced gross profit by $47 million.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses, including research and development, were $288 million in the first six months of 2003 as compared to $265 million in the first six months of 2002. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses were 3.6% in each of the six month periods ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002. Increased marketing efforts related to Asian automotive manufacturers and net foreign exchange rate fluctuations contributed $7 million and $16 million, respectively, to the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.

     Interest expense was $101 million in the six months ended June 28, 2003 as compared to $108 million in the six months ended June 29, 2002. Our reduced debt balance and lower interest rates favorably impacted interest expense by $6 million and $5 million, respectively, and were partially offset by net foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

     Other expense, which includes state and local taxes, foreign exchange gains and losses, minority interest in consolidated subsidiaries, equity in net income of affiliates, gains and losses on the sales of fixed assets and other miscellaneous expenses, was $27 million in the first six months of 2003 as compared to $32 million in the first six months of 2002. An increase in losses on the sales of fixed assets was more than offset by a decrease in state and local taxes and the positive impact of net foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

     The provision for income taxes was $74 million, representing an effective tax rate of 30.0%, in the current period as compared to $66 million, representing an effective tax rate of 33.5%, in the same period a year ago. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily the result of our overall tax planning strategy as well as the mix of our earnings outside the United States. The effective tax

LEAR CORPORATION

rates for the first six months 2003 and 2002 approximated the United States Federal statutory income tax rate of 35%, adjusted for income taxes on foreign earnings, losses and remittances, valuation adjustments, research and development credits and other items.

     Net income (loss) in the first six months of 2003 was $172 million, or $2.55 per diluted share, as compared to $(167) million, or $(2.49) per diluted share, in the first six months of 2002. On January 1, 2002, we adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, under which goodwill is no longer amortized but is subject to annual impairment analysis. As a result of our initial impairment analysis, we recorded a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle related to impairment charges of $311 million ($299 million after tax) as of January 1, 2002. Income before cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the first six months of 2002 was $132 million, or $1.97 per diluted share.

Reportable Operating Segments

Seating

     Seating net sales were $5.5 billion in the six months ended June 28, 2003 as compared to $5.0 billion in the six months ended June 29, 2002, an increase of $541 million or 10.9%. New business net of selling price reductions and net foreign exchange rate fluctuations positively impacted net sales by $329 million and $386 million, respectively. These increases were partially offset by the impact of lower vehicle production volumes, which combined with changes in platform and product mix reduced net sales by $175 million. Income before interest, other expense and income taxes and the related margin on net sales were $336 million and 6.1% in the first six months of 2003 as compared to $246 million and 4.9% in the first six months of 2002. New business, net foreign exchange rate fluctuations and the benefit of our direct cost reduction actions and other efficiencies contributed $20 million, $13 million and $30 million, respectively, to the increase in income before interest, other expense and income taxes. Income before interest, other expense and income taxes also benefited from favorable platform and product mix, which together with the impact of lower vehicle production volumes contributed $27 million to the increase.

Interior

     Interior net sales were $1.4 billion in the six months ended June 28, 2003 as compared to $1.3 billion in the six months ended June 29, 2002, an increase of $86 million or 6.6%. New business net of selling price reductions and net foreign exchange rate fluctuations positively impacted net sales by $107 million and $49 million, respectively, and were partially offset by the impact of lower vehicle production volumes. Lower vehicle production volumes combined with changes in platform and product mix reduced net sales by $70 million. Income before interest, other expense and income taxes and the related margin on net sales were $53 million and 3.9% in the first six months of 2003 as compared to $75 million and 5.7 % in the first six months of 2002. New business and the benefit of our direct cost reduction actions positively impacted income before interest, other expense and income taxes by $8 million and $9 million, respectively. These increases were more than offset by lower vehicle production volumes, which combined with changes in platform and product mix, additional spending on program development in North America and product launch-related spending in Europe negatively impacted income before interest, other expense and income taxes by $36 million. Net foreign exchange rate fluctuations also negatively impacted income before interest, other expense and income taxes by $7 million.

Electronic and Electrical

     Electronic and electrical net sales were $1.1 billion in the six months ended June 28, 2003 as compared to $1.0 billion in the six months ended June 29, 2002, an increase of $46 million or 4.4%. New business net of selling price reductions and net foreign exchange rate fluctuations positively impacted net sales by $104 million and $81 million, respectively, and were partially offset by the impact of lower vehicle production volumes. Lower vehicle production volumes combined with changes in platform and product mix reduced net sales by $139 million. Income before interest, other expense and income taxes and the related margin on net sales were $103 million and 9.5% in the first six months of 2003 as compared to $114 million and 11.0% in the first six months of 2002. New business, net foreign exchange rate fluctuations and the benefit of our direct cost reduction actions positively impacted income before interest, other expense and income taxes by $6 million, $7 million and $12 million, respectively. These increases were more than offset by lower vehicle production volumes, which together with changes in platform and product mix negatively impacted income before interest, other expense and income taxes by $35 million.

Restructuring

     In order to better align our operations and capacity in response to reductions in global automotive production volumes, we began to implement a restructuring plan in the fourth quarter of 2001. This restructuring plan was designed to consolidate certain of our operations and to improve overall efficiencies and our long-term competitive position. As of June 28, 2003, the restructuring plan was

23

LEAR CORPORATION

substantially complete with two facilities remaining to be closed and approximately 340 employees yet to be terminated. These remaining actions are expected to be completed in 2003. There have been no significant changes to the original restructuring plan as disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

     We expect to realize between $55 and $60 million in savings during 2003 as a result of the restructuring plan.

     For more information relating to the restructuring charges described above, see Note 3, “Restructuring,” to the consolidated financial statements included in this Report.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Our primary liquidity needs are to fund capital expenditures, service indebtedness and support working capital requirements. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from operating activities and borrowing availability under our primary credit facilities. A substantial portion of our operating income is generated by our subsidiaries. As a result, we are dependent on the earnings and cash flows of and dividends, distributions or advances from our subsidiaries to provide the funds necessary to meet our obligations. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other distributions to Lear.

Cash Flow

     Operating activities generated $257 million of cash in the first six months of 2003 as compared to $300 million of cash in the first six months of 2002. The net change in sold accounts receivables resulted in a $134 million decrease in cash provided by operating activities. In addition, cash provided by operating activities decreased as a result of the net change in recoverable customer engineering and tooling, which was a use of $29 million of cash in 2003 as compared to a source of $16 million of cash in 2002. These reductions were partially offset by income before cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, which improved by $40 million between periods and the net change in working capital items, which generated $57 million of cash in the current period and used $14 million of cash in the prior year period. Increases in accounts receivable and accounts payable were a use of $552 million of cash and a source of $401 million of cash, respectively, in the first six months of 2003, reflecting the timing of customer and supplier payments. Other current assets and accrued liabilities generated $185 million of cash in the first six months of 2003, primarily as a result of the timing of commercial settlements and payroll-related payments, offset by the timing of domestic and foreign tax payments.

     Investing activities resulted in a cash usage of $127 million in the six months ended June 28, 2003 as compared to $104 million in the six months ended June 29, 2002. This increase is primarily the result of a $35 million increase in capital expenditures.

     Financing activities resulted in a cash usage of $121 million in the first six months of the current year as compared to $174 million in the first six months of the prior year. This decrease is primarily due to lower repayments of our long and short-term debt as a result of decreased utilization of our asset-backed securitization facility (the “ABS facility”), partially offset by a decrease in the proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

Capitalization

     We utilize uncommitted lines of credit to satisfy a portion of our short-term working capital requirements. For the six months ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, our average outstanding unsecured short-term debt balances were $53 million and $33 million, respectively. Weighted average interest rates, including the effect of hedging activities, on the outstanding borrowings were 4.8% and 3.3% for the respective periods.

     We utilize a combination of committed credit facilities and long-term notes to fund our capital expenditure and base working capital requirements. For the six months ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, our average outstanding long-term debt balances were $2.1 billion and $2.3 billion, respectively. Weighted average long-term interest rates, including rates under our committed credit facilities and the effect of hedging activities, were 6.8% and 6.7% for the respective periods.

     Scheduled cash interest payments on our outstanding senior notes are $68 million in the last six months of 2003, $137 million in 2004 and $113 million in 2005. Accretion of interest on our zero-coupon convertible senior notes is reflected as an increase in the accreted value of the notes.

     In June 2003, we reduced availability under our $500 million revolving credit facility to $250 million. As of June 28, 2003, our primary credit facilities consisted of a $1.7 billion amended and restated credit facility, which matures on March 26, 2006, a $250 million revolving credit facility, which matures on May 4, 2004, and a $500 million term loan, of which no amount was outstanding as of June 28, 2003.

     As of June 28, 2003, we had $19 million outstanding under our primary credit facilities and $36 million committed under outstanding letters of credit, resulting in approximately $1.9 billion of unused availability under our primary credit facilities. In addition to debt outstanding under our primary credit facilities, we had $2.1 billion of debt, including short-term borrowings, outstanding as of June 28, 2003, consisting primarily of $600 million of senior notes due 2005, $800 million of senior notes due 2009, zero-coupon senior notes due 2022 with an accreted value of $267 million and 250 million EUR (approximately $288 million based on the exchange rate in effect as of June 28, 2003) of senior notes due 2008.

     Our primary credit facilities contain operating and financial covenants that, among other things, could limit our ability to obtain additional sources of capital. The primary credit facilities are guaranteed by certain of our significant subsidiaries and are secured by the pledge of all or a portion of the capital stock of certain of our significant subsidiaries. Our senior notes are guaranteed by the same subsidiaries that guarantee our primary credit facilities.

     We have in place an ABS facility, which provides for maximum purchases of adjusted accounts receivable of $200 million. Accounts receivable in an aggregate amount of $74 million were sold as of June 28, 2003. The level of funding under this facility is based on the credit ratings of our major customers as well as the level of aggregate accounts receivable in a specific month. In May 2003, the ABS facility was amended to reduce the maximum purchases of adjusted accounts receivable to $200 million from $260 million to reflect anticipated availability and usage.

     In addition, several of our European subsidiaries factor their accounts receivable with financial institutions. Such receivables are factored without recourse to us and are excluded from accounts receivable in our consolidated balance sheets as of June 28, 2003 and December 31, 2002. The amounts of factored receivables were $151 million and $160 million as of June 28, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. We cannot provide any assurances that these factoring facilities will be available or utilized in the future.

     We believe that cash flows from operating activities and available credit facilities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated debt service obligations, projected capital expenditures and working capital requirements.

Market Rate Sensitivity

     In the normal course of business, we are exposed to market risk associated with fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. We manage these risks through the use of derivative financial instruments in accordance with management’s guidelines. We enter into all hedging transactions for periods consistent with the underlying exposures. We do not enter into derivative instruments for trading purposes.

Foreign Exchange

     Operating results may be impacted by our buying, selling and financing in currencies other than the functional currency of our operating companies (“transactional exposure”). We mitigate this risk by entering into forward foreign exchange, futures and option contracts. The forward foreign exchange contracts are executed with banks that we believe are creditworthy. Gains and losses related to the forward foreign exchange contracts are deferred and included in the measurement of the foreign currency transaction subject to the hedge. Any gain or loss incurred related to a forward foreign exchange contract is generally offset by the direct effects of currency movements on the underlying transactions.

     Our most significant foreign currency transactional exposures relate to Canada, the European Monetary Union and Mexico. We have performed a quantitative analysis of our overall currency rate exposure as of June 28, 2003. The potential earnings impact from a hypothetical 10% strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to all other currencies for a twelve-month period is approximately $(1) million. The potential earnings impact from a similar strengthening of the Euro relative to all other currencies for a twelve-month period is approximately $(1) million.

     As of June 28, 2003, foreign exchange contracts representing $1.5 billion of notional amount were outstanding with maturities of less than two years. The fair value of these foreign exchange contracts was approximately $(21) million as of June 28, 2003. A 10%

25


Table of Contents

LEAR CORPORATION

change in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to all other currencies would result in a $6 million change to market value. A 10% change in the value of the Euro would result in a $23 million change in market value.

     There are certain shortcomings inherent to the sensitivity analysis presented. The analysis assumes that all currencies would uniformly strengthen or weaken relative to the U.S. dollar or Euro. In reality, some currencies may weaken while others may strengthen causing the earnings impact to increase or decrease depending on the currency and the direction of the rate movement.

     In addition to the above transactional exposure, our operating results are impacted by the translation of our foreign operating income into U.S. dollars. We do not enter into foreign currency contracts to mitigate this exposure.

Interest Rates

     We use a combination of fixed and variable rate debt and interest rate swap contracts to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. Our exposure to variable interest rates on outstanding variable rate debt instruments indexed to U.S. or European Monetary Union short-term money market rates is partially managed by the use of interest rate swap contracts to convert variable rate debt to fixed rate debt, matching effective and maturity dates to specific debt instruments. These interest rate derivative contracts are executed with banks that we believe are creditworthy and are denominated in currencies that match the underlying debt instrument. Net interest payments or receipts from interest rate swap contracts are recorded as adjustments to interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations on an accrual basis.

     We have performed a quantitative analysis of our overall interest rate exposure as of June 28, 2003. This analysis assumes an instantaneous 100 basis point parallel shift in interest rates at all points of the yield curve. The potential adverse earnings impact from this hypothetical increase for a twelve-month period is approximately $4 million.

     As of June 28, 2003, interest rate swap contracts representing $0.8 billion of notional amount were outstanding with maturity dates of December 2003 through May 2009. Of these contracts, $0.4 billion swap variable rate debt for fixed rate debt, and $0.4 billion swap fixed rate debt for variable rate debt. The fair value of these interest rate swap contracts is subject to changes in value due to changes in interest rates. The fair value of these contracts was approximately $(8) million as June 28, 2003. A 100 basis point parallel increase or decrease in interest rates would result in a $9 million change in the aggregated market value of these instruments.

OTHER MATTERS

Environmental Matters and Legal Proceedings

     We are involved in certain legal actions and claims arising in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, claims relating to product warranties and other liabilities, environmental liabilities, intellectual property matters, personal injury claims, employment matters and commercial or contractual disputes. Although the outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that any of the legal proceedings or matters in which we are currently involved, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial position or results of operations.

     We are subject to local, state, federal and foreign laws, regulations and ordinances, which govern activities or operations that may have adverse environmental effects and which impose liability for the costs of cleaning up certain damages resulting from past spills, disposal or other releases of hazardous wastes and environmental compliance. Our policy is to comply with all applicable environmental laws and to maintain procedures to ensure compliance. However, we currently are, have been and in the future may become the subject of formal or informal enforcement actions or procedures.

     We have been named as a potentially responsible party at several third-party landfill sites and are engaged in the cleanup of hazardous wastes at certain sites owned, leased or operated by us, including several properties acquired in our 1999 acquisition of United Technologies Automotive (“UT Automotive”). Certain present and former properties of UT Automotive are subject to environmental liabilities which may be significant. We obtained agreements and indemnities with respect to certain possible environmental liabilities from United Technologies Corporation in connection with our acquisition of UT Automotive. While we do not believe that the environmental liabilities associated with our current and former properties will have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial position or results of future operations, no assurances can be given in this regard.

Accounting Policies

     The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in our consolidated financial statements. Our estimates are based on historical experience and currently available information. Actual results in these areas could differ from our estimates. For a discussion of our significant accounting estimates and policies, see Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies,” and Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies or estimates during the first six months of 2003.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

     The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has issued SFAS No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” which is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies the accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended by SFAS No. 137 and SFAS No. 138. We do not expect the effects of adoption to be significant.

Financial Instruments

     The FASB has issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity,” which is effective for financial instruments issued or modified after May 31, 2003 and is effective for all other instruments at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. This statement requires liability recognition and fair value measurement for certain financial instruments. We do not expect the effects of adoption to be significant.

Agreements with Customers

     We recognize revenues as our products are shipped to our customers. We enter into agreements with our customers to produce products at the beginning of a vehicle’s life. Once we enter into such agreements, fulfillment of our customers’ purchasing requirements is our obligation for the entire production life of the vehicle, with terms of up to ten years. These agreements generally may be terminated by our customer (but not by us) at any time. Historically, terminations of these agreements have been minimal. In certain limited instances, we may be committed under existing agreements to supply products to our customers at selling prices which are not sufficient to cover the direct cost to produce such products. In such situations, we recognize losses as they are incurred.

     In previous years, we recorded loss contract accruals in purchase accounting in conjunction with the Lear-Donnelly acquisition, the UT Automotive acquisition, the Peregrine acquisition and the Delphi acquisition. These loss contract accruals were not recorded in the historical operating results of Lear-Donnelly, UT Automotive, Peregrine or Delphi. The losses included in the accrual have not been, and will not be, included in our operating results since the respective acquisition dates. Further, our future operating results will benefit from accruing these contract losses in the related purchase price allocations. In 2002, the loss contract accruals related to the Lear-Donnelly and Peregrine acquisitions were fully utilized. A summary of the remaining loss contract accrual activity related to the UT Automotive and Delphi acquisitions is shown below (in millions):

                         
    Accrual at             Accrual at  
    December 31,             June 28,

UT Automotive
    4.7       (1.2 )     3.5  
Delphi
    16.2       (4.5 )     11.7  

     During the first six months of 2002, we utilized $2.1 million, $2.0 million, $1.7 million and $4.0 million of the loss contract accruals related to the Lear-Donnelly, UT Automotive, Peregrine and Delphi acquisitions, respectively.

Outlook

     For the third quarter of 2003, we expect net sales to be approximately $3.4 billion. This reflects the expected addition of new business globally and a stronger Euro, offset by lower vehicle production in North America (down 5%) and in Western Europe (down 7%). For the second half of 2003, the corporate tax rate is expected to be 28%, as compared to 30% in the first half of 2003. Based primarily on the foregoing, we expect net income per share in the range of $0.95 to $1.05. Capital spending is projected to be approximately $100 million.

     For the full year 2003, we expect net sales to be approximately $15.2 billion, compared with $14.4 billion in 2002. This increase reflects the expected addition of $900 million in new business globally and a stronger Euro, offset in part by lower vehicle production in North America (down from 16.4 million units to a range of 15.7 to 15.9 million units) and in Western Europe (down from 16.4 million units to a range of 15.7 to 15.9 million units). Based primarily on the foregoing, we expect net income per share in the range of $5.20 to $5.50. Full-year capital spending is projected to be approximately $300 million.

     The foregoing constitute forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Please refer to “– Forward-Looking Statements” and Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our year ended December 31, 2002 for a description of certain factors that may cause our actual results to differ from those expressed in our forward-looking statements.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a)  Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

     Within the 90 days prior to the date of this Form 10-Q, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer along with the Company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. However, based upon the evaluation, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer along with the Company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, subject to the limitations described above, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective. In addition, they concluded that there were no significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal controls which could significantly affect our ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data.

(b)  Changes in Internal Controls

     There have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors which could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date the Company carried out its evaluation.
