| | Chapter 11 Filings

On December 5, 2001, Hayes Lemmerz
International, Inc., 30 of its wholly-owned domestic
subsidiaries and one wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary
(collectively, the Debtors) filed voluntary
petitions for reorganization relief (the Chapter 11
Filings or the Filings) under Chapter 11
of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for
the District of Delaware (the Bankruptcy Court).

On December 16, 2002, certain of the Debtors
filed a proposed joint plan of reorganization with the
Bankruptcy Court. On April 9, 2003, the Debtors filed a
modified first amended joint plan of reorganization (the
Plan of Reorganization) which received the requisite
support from creditors authorized to vote thereon. The following
five Debtors were not proponents of the Plan of Reorganization
and are not subject to the terms thereof: HLI Netherlands
Holdings, Inc., CMI Quaker Alloy, Inc., Hayes Lemmerz Funding
Company, LLC, Hayes Lemmerz Funding Corporation, and Hayes
Lemmerz International Import, Inc. (collectively, the
Non-reorganizing Debtors).

The Plan of Reorganization provided for the
cancellation of the existing common stock of the Company and the
issuance of cash, new common stock in the reorganized Company
and other property to certain creditors of the Company in
respect of certain classes of claims. The Plan of Reorganization
was confirmed by an order of the Bankruptcy Court on
May 12, 2003, which order has become final and
non-appealable.

STATEMENTS  (Continued)

Plan of Reorganization and are not subject to the
terms thereof. On June 3, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court
entered an order dismissing the Chapter 11 Filings of the
Non-reorganizing Debtors.

Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, the
Company caused the formation of (i) a new holding company,
HLI Holding Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(HoldCo), (ii) HLI Parent Company, Inc., a
Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of HoldCo
(ParentCo), and (iii) HLI Operating Company,
Inc, a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of
ParentCo (HLI). On the Effective Date,
(i) HoldCo was renamed Hayes Lemmerz International, Inc.
(New Hayes), (ii) New Hayes contributed to
ParentCo 30,0000,000 shares of its common stock, par value
$.01 per share (the New Common Stock), and 957,447
series A warrants and 957,447 series B warrants to
acquire New Common Stock of New Hayes (the Series A
Warrants and Series B Warrants,
respectively), (iii) ParentCo in turn contributed such
shares of New Common Stock and Series A Warrants and
Series B Warrants to HLI and (iv) pursuant to an
Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 3, 2003 (the
Merger Agreement), between the Company and HLI, the
Company was merged with and into HLI (the Merger),
with HLI continuing as the surviving corporation.

Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization and as a
result of the Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares
of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Company
(the Old Common Stock), and any other outstanding
equity securities of the Company, including all options and
warrants, were cancelled. The holders of the existing voting
common stock of the Company immediately before confirmation did
not receive any voting shares of the emerging entity or any
other consideration under the Plan of Reorganization as a result
of their ownership interests of the Predecessor. This
represented a complete change of control in the ownership of the
Company. Promptly following the Merger, HLI distributed to
certain holders of allowed claims, under the terms of the Plan
of Reorganization, an amount in cash, the New Common Stock, the
Series A Warrants, the Series B Warrants and the
Preferred Stock (as defined below). Prior to the Merger, the Old
Common Stock was registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act). In reliance on Rule 12g-3(a) of
the Exchange Act, by virtue of the status of New Hayes as a
successor issuer to the Company, the New Common Stock is deemed
registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act. The
Company filed a Form 15 with the SEC to terminate the
registration of the Old Common Stock under the Exchange Act.

Pursuant to the terms of the Plan of
Reorganization, HLI issued 100,000 shares of Preferred
Stock, par value $1.00, of HLI (the Preferred Stock)
to the holders of certain allowed claims. In accordance with the
terms of the Preferred Stock, the shares of Preferred Stock are,
at the holders option, exchangeable into a number of fully
paid and nonassessable shares of New Common Stock equal to
(i) the aggregate liquidation preference of the shares of
Preferred Stock so exchanged ($100 per share plus all accrued
and unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not declared) to the
exchange date) divided by (ii) 125% of the Emergence
Share Price. As determined pursuant to the terms of the
Plan of Reorganization, the Emergence Share Price is $18.50.

In connection with the Debtors emergence
from Chapter 11, on the Effective Date, HLI entered into a
$550.0 million senior secured credit facility, as amended
by Amendment No. 1 and Waiver to Credit Agreement, dated
October 16, 2003 (as amended, the New Credit
Facility). The New Credit Facility consists of a
$450.0 million six-year amortizing term loan (the New
Term Loan) and a five-year $100.0 million revolving
credit facility (the Revolving Credit Facility). In
addition, HLI issued on the Effective Date an aggregate of
$250.0 million principal amount of 10 1/2% senior
notes due 2010 (the New Senior Notes). The proceeds
from the initial $450.0 million of borrowings under the New
Credit Facility and the net proceeds from the New Senior Notes

On May 30, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court
entered an order approving, among other things, the critical
employee retention plan (the CERP) filed with the
Bankruptcy Court in February 2002 which was designed to
compensate certain critical employees in order to assure their
retention and availability during the Companys
restructuring. The plan has two components which
(i) rewarded critical employees who remained with the
Company (and certain affiliates of the Company who are not
directly involved in the restructuring) during and through the
completion of the restructuring (the Retention
Bonus) and (ii) provided additional incentives to a
more limited group of the most senior critical employees if the
enterprise value upon completing the restructuring exceeded an
established baseline (the Restructuring Performance
Bonus).

Thirty-five percent, or approximately
$3.0 million, of the Retention Bonus was paid on
October 1, 2002. The remaining portion of the Retention
Bonus of approximately $5.9 million was paid on
June 13, 2003. Further, the Restructuring Performance Bonus
provided under the CERP was paid after the consummation of the
restructuring as discussed below.

Based on the Companys compromise total
enterprise value of $1,250.0 million as confirmed by the
Bankruptcy Court, the aggregate amount of the Restructuring
Performance Bonus is $12.1 million. Of the aggregate
$12.1 million, approximately $6.0 million was paid in
cash on July 1, 2003, and approximately $2.0 million
was paid on August 29, 2003 as determined by the
Companys Board of Directors. The remaining portion of the
Restructuring Performance Bonus was paid in 215,935 shares of
restricted units of New Hayes on July 28, 2003. Pursuant to
provisions contained in the CERP, the restricted units will vest
as follows, subject to the participants continued
employment:



| |   |                                                                                                    
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |  | one half of the restricted units will vest on the
    first anniversary of the Effective Date, and;
|
| |  | one half of the restricted units will vest on the
    second anniversary of the Effective Date.    

Cash payments with respect to other
reorganization items consisted primarily of professional fees
and cure payments and were approximately $20.3 million and
$21.2 million during the five months ended October 31,
2003 and the four months ended May 31, 2003, respectively.
Cash payments with respect to

reorganization items were approximately
$53.2 million during the nine months ended October 31,
2002, and consisted primarily of professional fee payments,
critical vendor payments, the Retention Bonus and a portion of
accrued interest and fees under the Companys prepetition
credit agreements.

|(2) | Basis of Presentation and Stock-Based
    Compensation



| |                      
| | ---------------------
| | Basis of Presentation

As discussed in Note 1, the Company filed a
voluntary petition for reorganization relief under
Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in December 2001. Upon
emergence from Chapter 11, the Company implemented fresh
start accounting principles pursuant to American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of
Position 90-7, Financial Reporting by Entities in
Reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code
(SOP 90-7). SOP 90-7 requires the
segregation of liabilities subject to compromise by the
Bankruptcy Court as of the bankruptcy filing date, and
identification of all transactions and events that are directly
associated with the reorganization of the Predecessor. See
Note (3), Fresh Start Accounting.

As a result of the application of fresh start
accounting on May 31, 2003, and in accordance with
SOP 90-7, the post-emergence financial results of the
Company for the period ending October 31, 2003 are
presented as the Successor and the pre-emergence
financial results of the Company for the period ending
May 31, 2003 are presented as the Predecessor.
Comparative financial statements do not straddle the emergence
date because in effect the Successor Company represents a new
entity. Per share and share information for the Predecessor
Company for all periods presented on the consolidated statement
of operations have been omitted as such information is deemed to
be not meaningful.

The Companys unaudited interim consolidated
financial statements do not include all of the disclosures
required by accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America for annual financial statements. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for
a fair presentation of the interim period results have been
included. Operating results for the interim periods presented in
fiscal 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the full fiscal year ending January 31,
2004.

Certain prior period amounts have been
reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.



| |                         
| | ------------------------
| | Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for its stock-based
compensation in accordance with the provisions of Accounting
Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and
related interpretations. As such, compensation expense is
recorded on the date of grant only if the current market price
of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price. The Company
follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation, and discloses pro forma net
income (loss) and pro forma earnings (loss) per share as if
employee stock option grants were treated as compensation
expense using the fair-value-based method defined in SFAS
No. 123.

In December 2002, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 148,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation 
Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement
No. 123. This Statement amends SFAS No. 123 to
provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change
to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the
disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require
prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial
statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS  (Continued)

On July 28, 2003, the Company granted
1,887,162 stock options and 1,258,107 restricted units to
certain employees and officers (excluding those restricted
shares granted under the CERP), and 65,455 options and 43,637
restricted units to non-employee members of the Companys
Board of Directors under the Long-Term Incentive Plan (see Note
(8)). The weighted average exercise price of the stock options
was $13.93 per share, which was equal to the fair value on the
date of grant. If compensation expense had been determined based
on the fair value at the grant date consistent with the method
prescribed in SFAS No. 123, the Companys net loss and
loss per share amounts would have been adjusted to the pro forma
amounts below:

As of the Effective Date, all options under the
Predecessor Companys stock option plans were cancelled and
those plans were terminated. Accordingly, no pro forma net
income (loss) or pro forma earnings (loss) per share have been
presented for any of the stock options granted under those
terminated plans.

(3)     Fresh Start
Accounting

Pursuant to SOP 90-7, the accounting for the
effects of the Companys reorganization occurred once the
Plan of Reorganization was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court and
there were no remaining contingencies material to completing the
implementation of the plan. The fresh start accounting
principles pursuant to SOP 90-7 provide, among other
things, for the Company to determine the value to be assigned to
the equity of the reorganized Company as of a date selected for
financial reporting purposes. As discussed in Note (1), the
Debtors emerged from Chapter 11 on June 3, 2003, and
the Company selected May 31, 2003 for financial reporting
purposes as the date to implement fresh start accounting
principles.

Pursuant to SOP 90-7, the results of operations
of the Company ended May 31, 2003 include
(i) a pre-emergence extraordinary gain of
$1,076.7 million resulting from the discharge of debt and
other liabilities under the Plan of Reorganization;
(ii) pre-emergence charges to earnings of
$25.9 million recorded as Reorganization items related to
certain costs and expenses resulting from the Plan of
Reorganization becoming effective; and
(iii) a pre-emergence pre-tax gain of
$63.1 million ($17.1 million, net of tax) resulting
from the aggregate remaining changes to the net carrying value
of the Companys pre-emergence assets and liabilities to
reflect the fair values under fresh start accounting.

The Companys compromise total enterprise
value at the Effective Date was $1,250.0 million, with
a total value for common equity of $544.4 million,
excluding the estimated fair value of the Preferred Stock and
the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants issued on
the Effective Date. The Preferred Stock is classified as a
liability in the consolidated balance sheet and referred to as
redeemable preferred stock of subsidiary. Under fresh start
accounting, the compromise total enterprise value has been
allocated to the Companys assets based on their respective
fair values in conformity with the purchase method of accounting
for business combinations in accordance with SFAS No. 141,
Business Combinations; any portion not attributed to
specific tangible or identified intangible assets has been
recorded as an indefinite-lived

intangible asset referred to as
reorganization value in excess of amounts allocable to
identifiable assets and reported as goodwill. The
valuations required to determine the fair value of certain of
the Companys assets as presented below represent the
results of the valuation procedures performed by the
Companys valuation specialist at May 31, 2003.



| |                                                                                                                                 
| | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| | Compromise Total Enterprise Value;
    Reorganization Value in Excess of Amounts Allocable to
    Identifiable Assets (Goodwill)

The compromise total enterprise value
(reorganization value) represents the amount of resources
available, or that become available, for the satisfaction of
post-petition liabilities and allowed claims, as negotiated
between the Debtors and the creditors (the interested
parties). This value along with other terms of the Plan of
Reorganization was determined only after extensive arms-length
negotiations amongst the interested parties. Each interested
party developed its view of what the value should be based
primarily upon expected future cash flows of the business after
emergence from Chapter 11, discounted at rates reflecting
perceived business and financial risks. This value is viewed as
the fair value of the entity before considering liabilities and
approximates the amount a willing buyer would pay for the assets
of the Company immediately after restructuring.

The amount of reorganization value in excess of
amounts allocated to identifiable assets (goodwill) is a
function of compromise total enterprise value. While the Company
believes that the compromise total enterprise value approximates
fair value, differences between the methodology used in testing
for goodwill impairment, as discussed in Note (6), and the
negotiated value could adversely impact the Companys
future results of operations.

The consolidated balance sheet presented below
gives effect to the Plan of Reorganization and the application
of fresh start accounting at May 31, 2003.

| | f) Represents new capitalization structure
    after giving effect to the Plan of Reorganization. The Company
    recorded the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants
    at fair value. The Company also determined that its
    Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants met the
    criteria for classification as liabilities. As such they will be
    measured at fair value at each reporting period with changes in
    fair value recognized in interest expense. The Company also has
    recorded the redeemable preferred stock at fair value which
    equals the stated liquidation preference. The fair value of the
    redeemable preferred stock was $10.0 million and the
    Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants fair value was
    approximately $9.3 million at emergence. The Series A
    Warrants and Series B Warrants were valued utilizing the
    Black-Scholes model that requires the estimation of several
    variables in the formula. The redeemable preferred stock of
    subsidiary was valued using a market/ capitalization
    approach that capitalizes the dividend stream of similar
    instruments issued by a comparative group using capitalization
    rates that reflect prevailing market yields. The use of this
    approach provides a range of possible fair values. This range
    was evaluated by the Company before it selected a capitalization
    rate of 8% which approximated the mean rate of the comparative
    group. The use of different valuation techniques could have
    resulted in different conclusions of the fair value of these
    instruments.

The Company expects that ongoing amortization
expense will approximate between $13 million and
$16 million in each of the next five fiscal years.

As a result of applying fresh start accounting,
the changes in the net carrying amount of goodwill during the
first nine months of fiscal 2003 represent the
elimination of $198.3 million of the Predecessors
goodwill, the establishment of $390.9 million of the
Successors goodwill, and the impact of foreign currency
translation. Goodwill by segment for the Successor as of
October 31, 2003 and for the Predecessor as of
January 31, 2003 is presented in Note (13).

Effective February 1, 2002, the Company
adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and
indefinite-lived intangible assets be reviewed for impairment
annually, rather than amortized into earnings. Any impairment to
the amount of goodwill existing at the date of adoption is to be
recognized as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting
principle on that date.

Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142 in
fiscal 2002, the Company discontinued amortizing goodwill
and indefinite-lived intangible assets into earnings. In
connection with the transitional provisions of the Statement,
the Company performed an assessment of whether there was an
indication that goodwill was impaired as of the adoption date.
To accomplish this, the Company determined the carrying value of
each of its reporting units (i.e., one step below the
segment level) by assigning the assets and liabilities,
including existing goodwill and intangible assets, to the
reporting units on February 1, 2002. As of that date, the
Company had unamortized goodwill and other indefinite-lived
intangibles of approximately $758.7 million that were
subject to the transition provisions of SFAS No. 142. The
Company determined the fair value of each reporting unit and
compared those fair values to the carrying values of each
reporting unit. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting
unit exceeded the fair value of the reporting unit (indicating
that goodwill may be impaired), the Company performed the second
step of the transitional impairment test. This test was required
for five reporting units.

In the second step, the Company compared the
implied fair value of the reporting units goodwill with
the carrying value of that goodwill, both of which were measured
at the adoption date. The implied fair value of goodwill was
determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting units
to all of the assets (both recognized and unrecognized) and
liabilities of the reporting units in a similar manner to a
purchase price allocation in accordance with SFAS No. 141,
Business Combinations. The residual fair value after
this allocation was the implied fair value of the reporting
units goodwill. The carrying amounts of these reporting
units exceeded the fair values, and the Company recorded an
impairment charge of $554.4 million as of February 1,
2002 as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle
as described above.

The Company will test goodwill for impairment
January 31 of each fiscal year, or more frequently should
circumstances change or events occur that would more likely than
not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying
amount, as provided for in SFAS No. 142.

| | Valuation of Intangible Assets as a result of
    Fresh Start Accounting

The Company worked with and relied extensively on
the expertise of external valuation consultants in arriving at
its assigned values for intangible assets. In managements
opinion, the valuations appear reasonable and appropriate.



| |                   
| | ------------------
| | Customer Contracts

Value was based on a review of contracts, award
letters and purchase orders in existence for the Companys
Domestic Wheels, Domestic Components, and International Wheels
reporting units. At the Companys International Components
and Commercial Highway reporting units, sales are not generated
or attributed to contracts but rather to customer relationships
and therefore contracts were not valued. Value was determined on
economic profits which exceeded a fair return on assets
employed. The amortization period is based on the remaining
contract terms.

| | ----------------------
| | Customer Relationships

Customer relationships refers to likely new
business from existing customers that is not currently booked.
Automotive suppliers often receive future business as a result
of being the incumbent on a program. Management and its outside
valuation consultants had discussions on expected future
business based on historic relationships and trends. Economic
profit was based on expected future sales with a growth rate of
2% less projected contract sales. The amortization period was
based on a review of historical data and discounting of cash
flows. The International Components and Commercial Highway
valuations were based on a review of projections provided which
identified sales generated by existing customers with an
attrition rate provided for loss of customers and indicated that
no intangible asset existed for these reporting units.



| |            
| | -----------
| | Trade Names

The Hayes Lemmerz trade name was
valued using a royalty savings method. It assumes a third party
would be willing to pay for the use of a name which represents a
cost savings to the Company. Our outside valuation consultants
identified other licensing agreements similar to ones that could
be used by the Company as a benchmark for royalty rates. Using
this data and historical use of the Companys name,
premiums earned on our products, excess earnings analysis and
projected profitability identified that the International Wheels
reporting unit could economically support a trade name. The name
is a perpetual, non-wasting asset and therefore an indefinite
life was assigned.



| |           
| | ----------
| | Technology

Discussions were held between management and the
external valuation consultant to identify specific technologies
valuable to a potential acquirer. Additional discussions were
then held with product development and engineering personnel to
gain an understanding of the distinctiveness, development stage,
third party agreements, royalty rates charged, and expected
remaining useful life of each technology. The technologies were
valued using a royalty savings method applied to sales
projections for 2003 through 2007. Royalty rates were determined
based on a review of discussions between management and the
external valuation consultant and a review of royalty data for
similar or comparable technologies. The amortization periods are
based on the expected useful lives of the product or product
program to which the technology relates.

|(7) | Asset Impairments and Other Restructuring
    Charges

In the third quarter of fiscal 2003, the
Company updated its sales projections to reflect the termination
and balancing out of certain programs. Based on those updated
sales projections, and on the impact of improved operating
efficiencies resulting from ongoing rationalization of
production capacity, the Company determined that its current
estimate of future undiscounted cash flows from its Gainesville,
Georgia, La Mirada, California and Wabash, Indiana
facilities will not be sufficient to recover the respective
carrying values of those facilities property, plant and
equipment. Accordingly, the Company recorded asset impairment
losses of $19.6 million in the Successor three months ended
October 31, 2003.

The Company also recorded asset impairment losses
and other restructuring charges of $6.4 million in the
Predecessor four months ended May 31, 2003 and
$10.0 million and $35.3 million in the Predecessor

| | Impairment of Facilities

In the third quarter of fiscal 2003, the
Company recorded an estimated asset impairment loss of
$0.8 million on the Wabash, Indiana building, which was
written down to fair value based on expected proceeds from the
sale of such building.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2003, the
Predecessor Company recorded asset impairment losses of
$0.6 million to write down the fair value of its
Petersburg, Michigan facility and its Thailand greenfield site
based on current real estate market conditions. The
non-operating Petersburg, Michigan facility is currently held
for sale by the Company as of October 31, 2003. The
non-operating Thailand greenfield site previously classified as
held for sale was sold by the Company in August 2003.

| | Impairment of Machinery, Equipment and
    Tooling

In the third quarter of fiscal 2003, the
Company recorded estimated impairment losses of
$18.8 million on machinery, equipment and production
tooling at its Gainesville, Georgia, La Mirada, California
and Wabash, Indiana manufacturing facilities. Such investments
in fixed assets were written down to fair value.

In May 2003, the Predecessor Company recorded
asset impairment losses of $1.6 million on certain
machinery and equipment in its Components segment due primarily
to a change in managements plan for the future use of
idled machinery and equipment. Such investments in fixed assets
were written down to fair value.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2003, the
Company recorded asset impairment losses of $1.5 million on
certain machinery and equipment in its Automotive Wheels segment
and $1.7 million in its Components segment due primarily to
a change in managements plan for the future use of idled
machinery and equipment. Such investments in fixed assets were
written down to fair value.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2002, the
Company recognized asset impairment losses of $5.3 million
on certain machinery and equipment in the Automotive Wheel
segment due to a change in managements plan for the future
use of idled machinery and equipment and the discontinuance of
certain machinery and equipment due to changes in product mix.
Such investments in fixed assets were written down to fair value.

In the second quarter of fiscal 2002, the
Company determined, based on its most recent sales projections
for the facility, that its current estimate of the future
undiscounted cash flows from its manufacturing facility in La
Mirada, California will not be sufficient to recover the
carrying value of the facilitys fixed assets and
production tooling. Accordingly, the Company recorded an
estimated impairment loss of $15.5 million in the second
quarter of fiscal 2002 on those assets. During the second
quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company also recognized asset
impairment losses of $1.8 million on certain machinery and
equipment due primarily to a change in managements plan
for the future use of idled machinery and equipment.

| | Facility Closures

During the first four months of
fiscal 2003, the Predecessor Company recognized additional
restructuring charges of $0.9 million related to the
closure of its Bowling Green, Kentucky facility. These charges
relate to additional plant closure costs and terminated employee
health care benefits. Of these and other closure costs
previously recognized, approximately $1.3 million remain
unpaid as of October 31, 2003 and are expected to be paid
during fiscal 2004.

In February 2002, the Company committed to a plan
to close its manufacturing facility in Somerset, Kentucky. In
connection with the closure of the Somerset facility (which
commenced during February 2002), the Company recorded an
estimated restructuring charge of $6.7 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 2002. This charge included amounts
related to lease termination costs and other closure costs
including security and maintenance costs subsequent to the shut
down date. The amount of the charge related to leases was

compromise until May 31, 2003. The lease termination costs
were ultimately discharged under the Plan of Reorganization upon
emergence from Chapter 11. Of the other closure costs,
approximately $0.9 million remained unpaid as of

Company recorded a charge of $3.4 million
primarily related to supplemental retirement benefits and
continued medical benefits. The retirement benefit portion of

Of the remaining $3.7 million of facility
exit costs and severance accrued as of October 31, 2003,
$2.2 million relates to the companys Bowling Green
and Somerset facilities discussed above, and the remainder
relates to the Companys Petersburg, Michigan facility and
various European facilities, which are expected to be paid
during fiscal 2004. Of the facility exit costs accrued as of
January 31, 2003, $7.5 million relates to lease
termination costs which were reclassified to liabilities subject
to compromise and ultimately discharged under the Plan of
Reorganization upon emergence from Chapter 11.

(8)     Long-Term
Incentive Plan

Upon the Effective Date, all options under the
Predecessor Companys stock option plans were cancelled and
those plans were terminated in accordance with the Plan of
Reorganization.

In conjunction with the Plan of Reorganization,
the Company filed a proposed Long-Term Incentive Plan with the
Bankruptcy Court. The Long-Term Incentive Plan was approved by
the Bankruptcy Court on May 12, 2003 in connection with the
confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization, and in accordance
with Section 303 of the Delaware General Corporation Law,
such approval constituted stockholder approval of the Long-Term
Incentive Plan. The Long-Term Incentive Plan became effective on
July 23, 2003, the date that the Plan was approved by the
Companys Board of Directors. No award may be granted under
the Long-Term Incentive Plan after July 23, 2013.

The Long-Term Incentive Plan provides for the
grant of incentive stock options (ISOs), stock
options that do not qualify as ISOs, restricted shares of common
stock, and restricted stock units (collectively, the
awards). The number of shares subject to awards
under the Long-Term Incentive Plan is 3,734,554 (subject to
adjustment in certain circumstances as provided for in the
plan). Any officer, director or key employee of the Company or
any of its subsidiaries is eligible to be designated a
participant in the Long-Term Incentive Plan.

On July 28, 2003, the Company granted
1,887,162 stock options and 1,258,107 restricted stock units to
certain employees and officers, and 65,455 options and 43,637
restricted stock units to non-employee members of the
Companys Board of Directors. The weighted average exercise
price of the stock options was $13.93 per share, which was equal
to the fair value on the date of grant. The stock options
granted to certain employees and officers of the Company vest
25% per year over a four year period. The restricted stock units
granted to certain employees and officers of the Company vest
one third after three years and

the remaining two thirds after four years. The
stock options and restricted stock units granted to the
non-employee directors vest over a two year period.


As a result of issuing the restricted stock units
discussed above and the restricted stock units issued under the
CERP (see Note (1)), the Company will recognize
compensation expense of $21.1 million in results of
operations over the respective vesting periods. During the three
months ended October 31, 2003, the Company recognized
$2.1 million of compensation expense related to such
restricted stock units.

(9)     Loss Per
Share

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing
net loss by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding. Weighted average shares outstanding include vested
restricted stock units as discussed above (See Note 8).
Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the
diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted weighted
average shares assume the exercise of stock options and
warrants, so long as they are not anti-dilutive.

Shares outstanding for the three months and five
months ended October 31, 2003 were as follows (thousands of
shares):

|                                        |  |              |        |  |             |  |        |

|Weighted average shares outstanding     |  |              | 30,015 |  |             |  | 30,009 | 
|Dilutive effect of options and warrants |  |              |       |  |             |  |       | 
|                                        |  |              |        |  |             | 
|Diluted shares outstanding              |  |              | 30,015 |  |             |  | 30,009 | 
|                                        |  |              |        |  |             | 

For the three month and five month periods ended
October 31, 2003, all options and warrants were excluded
from the calculation of diluted loss per share as the effect was
anti-dilutive due to the net loss before cumulative effect of
change in accounting principle and extraordinary gain on debt
discharge reflected for such periods.

(10)     Comprehensive
Income (Loss)

The components of comprehensive income
(loss) for the five months ended October 31,
2003, the four months ended May 31, 2003 and the

As discussed in Note (1), the Debtors emerged
from Chapter 11 on June 3, 2003. In connection with
the Debtors emergence on the Effective Date, HLI entered
into a $550.0 million senior secured credit facility, which
was subsequently amended on October 16, 2003 by amendment
No. 1 and Waiver to Credit Agreement to, among other
things, reduce the interest rate on the term loan portion of the
senior secured credit facility by 100 basis points, (as amended,
the New Credit Facility). The New Credit Facility
consists of a $450.0 million six-year amortizing term loan
(the New Term Loan) and a five-year
$100.0 million revolving credit facility (the
Revolving Credit Facility). In addition, HLI issued
on the Effective Date an aggregate of $250.0 million
principal amount of 10 1/2% senior notes due 2010 (the
New Senior Notes). The proceeds from the initial
$450.0 million of borrowings under the New Credit Facility
and the net proceeds from the New Senior Notes were used to make
payments required under the Plan of

Reorganization, including the repayment of the
Companys DIP Facility and a payment of $477.3 million
to certain prepetition lenders, to pay related transaction costs
and to refinance certain debt.




| |                    
| | -------------------
| | New Credit Facility

The Term Loan Facility was made available to HLI
in a single drawing on the Effective Date, payable in quarterly
installments equal to 0.25% of the principal amount outstanding
immediately following effectiveness of the Plan of
Reorganization with the remaining balance payable on the sixth
anniversary of the Effective Date. The first quarterly
installment of $1.1 million was paid on October 31,
2003. The Revolving Credit Facility will be available until the
fifth anniversary of the Effective Date, on which date all loans
outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility will become due
and payable.

The interest rates per annum under the New Credit
Facility will, at HLIs option, be: (A) for the Term
Loan, either the LIBOR rate plus 3.75% or the alternate base
rate plus 2.75%; and (B) for the Revolving Credit Facility:
(i) for the first two fiscal quarters after the closing
date of the New Credit Facility, either the LIBOR rate plus
3.50% or the alternate base rate plus 2.50%, and
(ii) thereafter, such higher or lower rates determined by
reference to the Companys leverage ratio.

The New Credit Facility contains covenants
restricting the Companys ability and the ability of its
subsidiaries to issue more debt, pay dividends, repurchase
stock, make investments, merge or consolidate, transfer assets
and enter into transactions with affiliates. These restrictive
covenants are customary for such facilities and subject to
certain exceptions. The New Credit Facility also contains
certain financial covenants regarding a maximum total leverage
ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio and a minimum fixed
charge coverage ratio. HLIs obligations under the New
Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company and all of its
material direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries.

As of October 31, 2003, there were no
outstanding borrowings and approximately $22.5 million in
letters of credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility.
The amount available to borrow under the Revolving Credit
Facility at October 31, 2003 was approximately
$77.5 million.

| | ----------------
| | New Senior Notes

HLI issued $250.0 million aggregate
principal amount of New Senior Notes on June 3, 2003. The
New Senior Notes will mature on June 15, 2010. Interest on
the New Senior Notes will accrue at a rate of 10 1/2% per
annum and will be payable semi-annually in arrears on
June 15 and December 15. On October 30, 2003, HLI
commenced its offer to exchange up to $250,000,000 aggregate
principal amount of outstanding 10 1/2% Senior Notes due
2010 of HLI for a like principal amount of 10 1/2% Senior
Notes due 2010 of HLI. The exchange offer was registered under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to satisfy HLIs
obligations under the registration rights agreement entered into
by HLI and the initial purchasers of the New Senior Notes. (See
Note (15)).

The New Senior Notes are senior, unsecured
obligations of HLI and are effectively subordinated in right of
payment to all existing and future secured debt of HLI to the
extent of the value of the assets securing that debt, equal in
right of payment with all existing and future senior debt of
HLI, senior in right of payment to all subordinated debt of HLI.

Except as set forth below, the New Senior Notes
will not be redeemable at the option of HLI prior to
June 15, 2007. Starting on that date, HLI may redeem all or
any portion of the New Senior Notes, at once or over time, upon
the terms and conditions set forth in the senior note indenture
agreement (the Indenture). At any time prior to
June 15, 2007, HLI may redeem all or any portion of the New
Senior Notes, at once or over time, at a redemption price equal
to 100% of the principal amount of the New Senior Notes to be
redeemed, plus a specified make-whole premium. In
addition, at any time and from time to time prior to
June 15, 2006, HLI may redeem up to a maximum of 35% of the
aggregate principal amount of the New Senior Notes with the
proceeds of one or more public equity offerings at a redemption
price equal to 110.50% of the principal amount thereof, plus
accrued and unpaid interest.

The Indenture provides for certain restrictions
regarding additional debt, dividends and other distributions,
additional stock of subsidiaries, certain investments, liens,
transactions with affiliates, mergers, consolidations, and the
transfer and sales of assets. The Indenture also provides that a
holder of the New Senior Notes may, under certain circumstances,
have the right to require that the Company repurchase such
holders New Senior Notes upon a change of control of the
Company. The New Senior Notes are unconditionally guaranteed as
to the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest,
jointly and severally on a senior, unsecured basis by the
Company and substantially all of its domestic subsidiaries (see
Note (16)).

| | Other Financing

In addition to the New Credit Facility and New
Senior Notes as described above, the Company had other debt
financing of $63.0 million as of October 31, 2003.
These included borrowings under various foreign debt facilities
in an aggregate amount of $24.1 million, capital lease
obligations of $16.4 million and a mortgage note payable of
$22.5 million.

The Bankruptcy Code generally disallows the
payment of interest that would otherwise accrue postpetition
with respect to unsecured or undersecured claims. The Company
continued to record interest expense accruing postpetition with
respect to the Companys Third Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement dated as of February 3, 1999 (the
Prepetition Credit Agreement) because a significant
portion of such accrued interest would be an allowed claim as
part of the Plan of Reorganization. The amount of such unpaid
interest recorded as of May 31, 2003 was
$45.2 million, net of the May payment noted below, and was
classified as a liability subject to compromise in the
consolidated balance sheet as of that date.

The DIP Facility provided for the postpetition
cash payment at certain intervals of interest and fees accruing
postpetition under the Companys Prepetition Credit
Agreement, if certain tests are satisfied relating to the
liquidity position and earnings of the Company and its
subsidiaries, and the repatriation of funds from foreign
subsidiaries. On May 1, 2003, a payment of
$1.2 million was made for a portion of accrued interest and
fees with respect to this provision.

The Company did not continue to record interest
expense accruing postpetition with respect to the Old Senior
Notes and the Companys 11% Senior Subordinated Notes due
2006, 9 1/8% Senior

Subordinated Notes due 2007, and 8 1/4%
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008 (the Old Senior
Subordinated Notes) because such interest would not be an
allowed claim as part of the Plan of Reorganization. The amount
of such interest accruing postpetition that had not been
recorded as of May 31, 2003 and January 31, 2003 was
$174.9 million and $136.3 million, respectively. The
recorded amount of prepetition accrued interest was
$49.0 million, which was classified as a liability subject
to compromise in the consolidated balance sheets as of
May 31, 2003 and January 31, 2003.


Contingent Liabilities

Contingent liabilities of the Debtors as of the
Chapter 11 Filing date are also subject to compromise. The
Company is a party to litigation matters and claims that are
normal in the course of its operations. Generally, litigation
related to claims, as defined by the Bankruptcy
Code, is stayed. Also, as a normal part of their operations, the
Companys subsidiaries undertake certain contractual
obligations, warranties and guarantees in connection with the
sale of products or services. Resolution of these matters cannot
be predicted with certainty.

(13)     Segment
Reporting

The Company is organized based primarily on
markets served and products produced. Under this organization
structure, the Companys operating segments have been
aggregated into three reportable segments: Automotive Wheels,
Components, and Other. The Other category includes Commercial
Highway products, the corporate office and elimination of
intercompany activities, none of which meet the requirements of
being classified as an operating segment. Earnings (loss) from
operations excluding fresh start accounting adjustments and
reorganization items is used as a non-GAAP measure of the
Companys primary profitability measure because it excludes
fresh start accounting adjustments and reorganization items
which do not represent normal operating performance of the
Company as these items relate only to the Companys
Chapter 11 Filings and emergence.

    Common Stock

On November 14, 2003, the Company filed a
registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC covering a
primary offering of approximately 5.4 million shares of New
Common Stock to be sold by the Company (plus
1,620,000 shares subject to an over-allotment option) and
approximately 5.4 million secondary shares of New Common
Stock to be sold by AP Wheels, LLC (AP Wheels), an
affiliate of Apollo Management V, L.P.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds
received from the shares it sells in the offering to repay a
portion of its outstanding debt and for general corporate
purposes. The Company will not receive any of the net proceeds
from the sale of shares by AP Wheels.

In November 2003, the Company acquired an
additional 35% ownership interest in its Turkish joint venture
for $13.9 million in cash and will pay an additional
$1.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2004. As a
result of this acquisition, the Company owns 60% of Hayes
Lemmerz Jantas Jant Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S., which will be a
consolidated subsidiary of the Company beginning in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2003. As part of this transaction, the Company
sold an approximate 7.8% interest in another Turkish subsidiary,
Hayes Lemmerz-Inci Jant Sanayi A.S., for $2.4 million. This
sale reduced the Companys holdings in Hayes Lemmerz-Inci
Jant Sanayi A.S. to 60%.

HLI. The exchange offer was registered under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, to satisfy HLIs obligations under the
registration rights agreement entered into by HLI and the
initial purchasers of the New Senior Notes. All of the
$250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the outstanding New
Senior Notes were tendered and accepted for exchange.

|Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis
    of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Description of Business, Chapter 11
Filings and Emergence from Chapter 11

This discussion should be read in conjunction
with the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended January 31, 2003 as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on April 2, 2003 and the
other information included herein.

| | Description of Business

Unless otherwise indicated, references to
Company mean Hayes Lemmerz International, Inc. and
its subsidiaries and references to fiscal year means the
Companys year commencing on February 1 of that year
and ending on January 31 of the following year (i.e.,
fiscal 2003 refers to the period beginning
February 1, 2003 and ending January 31, 2004,
fiscal 2002 refers to the period beginning
February 1, 2002 and ending January 31, 2003).

The Company is a leading supplier of wheels,
wheel-end attachments, aluminum structural components and
automotive brake components. The Company is the worlds
largest manufacturer of automotive wheels. In addition, the
Company also designs and manufactures wheels and brake
components for commercial highway vehicles, and powertrain
components and aluminum non-structural components for the
automotive, commercial highway, heating and general equipment
industries.

The Company is organized based primarily on
markets served and products produced. Under this organization
structure, the Companys operating segments have been
aggregated into three reportable segments: Automotive Wheels,
Components and Other. The Automotive Wheels segment includes
results from the Companys operations that primarily design
and manufacture fabricated steel and cast aluminum wheels for
original equipment manufacturers in the global passenger car and
light vehicle markets. The Components segment includes results
from the Companys operations that primarily design and
manufacture suspension, brake and powertrain components for
original equipment manufacturers and Tier 1 suppliers in the
global passenger car and light vehicle markets. The Other
segment includes results from the Companys operations that
primarily design and manufacture wheel and brake products for
commercial highway and aftermarket customers in North America.
The Other category includes Commercial Highway products, the
corporate office and elimination of intercompany activities,
none of which meet the requirements of being classified as an
operating segment.

| | Chapter 11 Filings

On December 5, 2001, Hayes Lemmerz
International, Inc., 30 of its wholly-owned domestic
subsidiaries and one wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary
(collectively, the Debtors) filed voluntary
petitions for reorganization relief (the Chapter 11
Filings or the Filings) under Chapter 11
of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for
the District of Delaware (the Bankruptcy Court).

On December 16, 2002, certain of the Debtors
filed a proposed joint plan of reorganization with the
Bankruptcy Court. On April 9, 2003, the Debtors filed a
modified first amended joint plan of reorganization (the
Plan of Reorganization) which received the requisite
support from creditors authorized to vote thereon. The following
five Debtors were not proponents of the Plan of Reorganization
and are not subject to the terms thereof: HLI Netherlands
Holdings, Inc., CMI Quaker Alloy, Inc., Hayes Lemmerz Funding
Company, LLC, Hayes Lemmerz Funding Corporation, and Hayes
Lemmerz International Import, Inc. (collectively, the
Non-reorganizing Debtors).

The Plan of Reorganization provided for the
cancellation of the existing common stock of the Company and the
issuance of cash, new common stock in the reorganized Company
and other property to certain creditors of the Company in
respect of certain classes of claims. The Plan of Reorganization
was confirmed by an order of the Bankruptcy Court on
May 12, 2003, which order has become final and
non-appealable.

| | Emergence from
    Chapter 11

On June 3, 2003 (the Effective
Date), Hayes Lemmerz International, Inc. and each of the
27 Debtors proposing the Plan of Reorganization emerged
from Chapter 11 proceedings pursuant to the Plan of
Reorganization, which was confirmed by an order of the
Bankruptcy Court on May 12, 2003, which order has become
final and non-appealable. The Non-reorganizing Debtors were not
proponents of the Plan of Reorganization and are not subject to
the terms thereof. On June 3, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court
entered an order dismissing the Chapter 11 Filings of the
Non-reorganizing Debtors.

Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, the
Company caused the formation of (i) a new holding company,
HLI Holding Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(HoldCo), (ii) HLI Parent Company, Inc., a
Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of HoldCo
(ParentCo), and (iii) HLI Operating Company,
Inc, a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of
ParentCo (HLI). On the Effective Date,
(i) HoldCo was renamed Hayes Lemmerz International, Inc.
(New Hayes), (ii) New Hayes contributed to
ParentCo 30,0000,000 shares of its common stock, par value
$.01 per share (the New Common Stock), and
957,447 series A warrants and
957,447 series B warrants to acquire New Common Stock
of New Hayes (the Series A Warrants and
Series B Warrants, respectively),
(iii) ParentCo in turn contributed such shares of New
Common Stock and Series A Warrants and Series B
Warrants to HLI and (iv) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan
of Merger, dated as of June 3, 2003 (the Merger
Agreement), between the Company and HLI, the Company was
merged with and into HLI (the Merger), with HLI
continuing as the surviving corporation.

Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization and as a
result of the Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares
of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Company
(the Old Common Stock), and any other outstanding
equity securities of the Company, including all options and
warrants, were cancelled. The holders of the existing voting
common stock of the Company immediately before confirmation did
not receive any voting shares of the emerging entity or any
other consideration under the Plan of Reorganization as a result
of their ownership interests of the Predecessor. This
represented a complete change of control in the ownership of the
Company. Promptly following the Merger, HLI distributed to
certain holders of allowed claims, under the terms of the Plan
of Reorganization, an amount in cash, the New Common Stock, the
Series A Warrants, the Series B Warrants and the
Preferred Stock (as defined below). Prior to the Merger, the Old
Common Stock was registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act). In reliance on Rule 12g-3(a) of
the Exchange Act, by virtue of the status of New Hayes as a
successor issuer to the Company, the New Common Stock is deemed
registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act. The
Company filed a Form 15 with the SEC to terminate the
registration of the Old Common Stock under the Exchange Act.

Pursuant to the terms of the Plan of
Reorganization, HLI issued 100,000 shares of Preferred
Stock, par value $1.00, of HLI (the Preferred Stock)
to the holders of certain allowed claims. In accordance with the
terms of the Preferred Stock, the shares of Preferred Stock are,
at the holders option, exchangeable into a number of fully
paid and nonassessable shares of New Common Stock equal to
(i) the aggregate liquidation preference of the shares of
Preferred Stock so exchanged ($100 per share plus all
accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not declared)
to the exchange date) divided by (ii) 125% of the
Emergence Share Price. As determined pursuant to the
terms of the Plan of Reorganization, the Emergence Share Price
is $18.50.

In connection with the Debtors emergence
from Chapter 11, on the Effective Date, HLI entered into a
$550.0 million senior secured credit facility, which was
subsequently amended on October 16, 2003 by Amendment
No. 1 and Waiver to Credit Agreement, to, among other
things, reduce the interest rate on the term loan portion of the
senior secured credit facility by 100 basis points, (as
amended, the New Credit Facility). The New Credit
Facility consists of a $450.0 million six-year amortizing
term loan (the New Term Loan) and a five-year
$100.0 million revolving credit facility (the
Revolving Credit Facility). In addition, HLI issued
on the Effective Date an aggregate of $250.0 million
principal amount of 10 1/2% senior notes due 2010 (the
New Senior Notes). The proceeds from the initial
$450.0 million of borrowings under the New Credit Facility
and the net proceeds from the New Senior Notes were used

to make payments required under the Plan of
Reorganization, including the repayment of the Companys
DIP Facility and a payment of $477.3 million to certain
prepetition lenders, to pay related transaction costs and to

On May 30, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court
entered an order approving, among other things, the critical
employee retention plan (the CERP) filed with the
Bankruptcy Court in February 2002 which was designed to
compensate certain critical employees in order to assure their
retention and availability during the Companys
restructuring. The plan has two components which
(i) rewarded critical employees who remained with the
Company (and certain affiliates of the Company who are not
directly involved in the restructuring) during and through the
completion of the restructuring (the Retention
Bonus) and (ii) provided additional incentives to a
more limited group of the most senior critical employees if the
enterprise value upon completing the restructuring exceeded an
established baseline (the Restructuring Performance
Bonus).

Thirty-five percent, or approximately
$3.0 million, of the Retention Bonus was paid on
October 1, 2002. The remaining portion of the Retention
Bonus of approximately $5.9 million was paid on
June 13, 2003. Further, the Restructuring Performance Bonus
provided under the CERP was paid after the consummation of the
restructuring as discussed below.

Based on the Companys compromise total
enterprise value of $1,250.0 million as confirmed by the
Bankruptcy Court, the aggregate amount of the Restructuring
Performance Bonus is $12.1 million. Of the aggregate
$12.1 million, approximately $6.0 million was paid in
cash on July 1, 2003, and approximately $2.0 million
was paid on August 29, 2003 as determined by the
Companys Board of Directors. The remaining portion of the
Restructuring Performance Bonus was paid in 215,935 shares of
restricted units of New Hayes on July 28, 2003. Pursuant to
provisions contained in the CERP, the restricted units will vest
as follows, subject to the participants continued
employment:



| |   |

| |  | one half of the restricted units will vest on the
    first anniversary of the Effective Date, and;
|
| |  | one half of the restricted units will vest on the
    second anniversary of the Effective Date.    

Cash payments with respect to other
reorganization items consisted primarily of professional fees
and cure payments and were approximately $20.3 million and
$21.2 million during the five months ended October 31,
2003 and the four months ended May 31, 2003, respectively.
Cash payments with respect to

##### Table of Contents



reorganization items were approximately
$53.2 million during the nine months ended October 31,
2002, and consisted primarily of professional fee payments,
critical vendor payments, the Retention Bonus and a portion of
accrued interest and fees under the Companys prepetition
credit agreements.


As a result of the application of fresh start
accounting on May 31, 2003, and in accordance with
SOP 90-7, the post-emergence financial results of the
Company for the period ending October 31, 2003 are
presented as the Successor and the pre-emergence
financial results of the Company for the period ending
May 31, 2003 are presented as the Predecessor.
Comparative financial statements do not straddle the Effective
Date because in effect the Successor Company represents a new
entity. As a result of applying fresh start accounting the
Successor will have increased depreciation and amortization
expense, no reorganization items, no fresh start accounting
adjustments and lower interest expense in comparison to the
Predecessor. Depreciation expense of the Successor is expected
to be approximately $7.5 million higher annually resulting
from: (a) an increase in the carrying value of certain
plant, equipment and tooling to fair value under fresh start
accounting; (b) revisions to remaining estimated useful
lives under fresh start accounting; and (c) the increase in
the carrying value of other property, plant, equipment and
tooling from refinancing certain synthetic leases. Amortization
expense of the Successor is expected to be approximately
$10.4 million higher annually resulting from an increase in
the carrying value of definite-lived intangible assets to fair
value under fresh start accounting. Interest expense is expected
to decrease resulting from the Successors new capital
structure.

For purposes of the periods presented in
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Result of Operations, the Successor five months ended
October 31, 2003 and the Predecessor four months ended
May 31, 2003 have been combined for convenience of
discussion and are collectively referred to as fiscal 2003
nine months.

Results of Operations

Sales of the Companys wheels, wheel-end
attachments, aluminum structural components and brake components
produced in North America are directly affected by the overall
level of passenger car, light truck and commercial highway
vehicle production of North American OEMs and the relative
performance of its customers product lines in the North
American market. The Companys sales of its wheels and
automotive castings in foreign locations are directly affected
by the overall vehicle production in those locations and the
relative performance of its customers product lines in
those markets. The North American and European automotive
industries are sensitive to the overall strength of their
respective economies.

The Companys net sales for the third
quarter of fiscal 2003 decreased $4.5 million from
$535.4 million in the third quarter of 2002 to
$530.9 million in the third quarter of 2003. After
adjusting for the net impact of favorable exchange rate
fluctuations, relative to the U.S. dollar, net sales for the
third quarter of 2003 declined 6.3% or approximately
$34 million as compared to the same period in 2002.

Net sales from the Companys Automotive
Wheels segment increased $2.3 million to
$310.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2003 from
$307.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2002. The net
impact of

favorable foreign exchange rate fluctuations,
relative to the U.S. dollar, increased sales by approximately
$25 million. This was partially offset by lower industry
production volumes globally, which decreased sales by
approximately $23 million.


Net sales from Components decreased
$14.9 million to $188.8 million in the third quarter
of 2003 from $203.7 in the same quarter in 2002. The net impact
of lower unit volumes primarily due to lower industry production
and the expiration of certain programs decreased net sales by
approximately $28 million. These reductions were partially
offset by favorable product mix and favorable fluctuations in
foreign exchange rates, which increased net sales by
approximately $14 million and $4 million, respectively.

Other net sales increased $8.1 million to
$32.0 million in the third quarter of 2003 from
$23.9 million in the third quarter of 2002. This increase
is primarily due to increased volumes in the Companys
commercial highway and aftermarket operations.

Earnings (loss) from operations excluding
fresh start accounting adjustments and reorganization items is
used as a non-GAAP measure of the Companys primary
profitability measure because it excludes fresh start accounting
adjustments and reorganization items which do not represent
normal operating performance of the Company as these items
relate only to the Companys Chapter 11 Filings and
emergence.

The following tables present earnings

and reorganization items, as well as other information by

Earnings from operations excluding fresh start
accounting adjustments and reorganization items decreased by
$20.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2003 to
$13.9 million, from $33.9 million in the third quarter
of 2002. Adjusted for the net impact of foreign exchange rate
fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar, the Companys
earnings from operations excluding fresh start accounting
adjustments and reorganization items decreased by approximately
$23 million from the third quarter of fiscal 2002.

Earnings from operations excluding fresh start
accounting adjustments and reorganization items from the
Companys Automotive Wheels operations decreased
$10.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2003 from the
same period in fiscal 2002. The decrease in third quarter fiscal
2003 earnings, compared to the same period in 2002, is primarily
attributable to approximately $6 million higher asset
impairment losses and approximately $4 million higher
depreciation and amortization expense. In the third quarter of
fiscal 2003, the Company recorded asset impairment losses of
$12.1 million based on its most recent sales projections,
which estimated that the future undiscounted cash flows from its
La Mirada, California and Gainesville, Georgia manufacturing
facilities would not be sufficient to recover the carrying value
of the fixed assets at those facilities. During the third
quarter of 2002 the Company recognized asset impairments losses
and other restructuring charges of $6.5 million primarily
due to a change in managements plans for the future use of
idled machinery and equipment and the discontinuance of certain
machinery and equipment due to changes in product mix.
Depreciation and amortization expense is higher due primarily to
the Companys adoption of fresh start accounting upon
emergence from Chapter 11. Lower OEM production
requirements reduced earnings from operations during the third
quarter of fiscal 2003, as compared to the same period in 2002.

Components earnings from operations excluding
fresh start accounting adjustments and reorganization items
decreased by $12.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal
2003 compared to the same period in fiscal 2002. In the third
quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company recorded asset impairment
losses of $7.5 million at its Wabash, Indiana facility
based on its most recent sales projections, which estimated that
the future undiscounted cash flows would not be sufficient to
recover the carrying value of the fixed assets at that facility.
Lower OEM production requirements reduced earnings from
operations excluding fresh start accounting adjustments and
reorganization items by approximately $9 million in the
Companys Components segment during the third quarter of
fiscal 2003, as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2002.
Components also recorded $5 million higher depreciation and
amortization expense, due primarily to the Companys
adoption of fresh start accounting during emergence from
Chapter 11. These reductions were partially offset by
favorable product mix and improved operating performance at the
Companys Montague, Michigan facility which increased
earnings from operations excluding fresh start accounting
adjustments and reorganization items by approximately
$9 million. The Montague facility incurred abnormally high
start-up costs and inefficiencies associated with new program
launches during fiscal 2002.

The Companys Other segment recorded an
increase in earnings from operations excluding fresh start
accounting adjustments and reorganization of $3.5 million,
up from a loss of $5 million during the third quarter of
fiscal 2002. In the third quarter of fiscal 2002, the
Companys Other segment recorded $3.5 million in
restructuring charges primarily related to supplemental
retirement benefits and continued medical benefits.

| | Interest Expense, net

Interest expense was $16.6 million for the
third quarter of fiscal 2003 and $19.0 million for the
third quarter of fiscal 2002. Interest expense between the two
periods is not comparable because of the Companys new
capital structure established upon emergence from
Chapter 11. See Notes (1) and (11) to the consolidated
financial statements included herein regarding the
Companys new capital structure.

Additionally, interest expense, net, for the
third quarter of fiscal 2003 includes a $1.9 million
increase to interest income as the result of adjusting to fair
value the Companys outstanding Series A Warrants and
Series B Warrants, which are recorded as liabilities on the
consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2003.

| | ------------
| | Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $6.1 million for the
third quarter of fiscal 2003, and is the result of taxes related
to operations in foreign jurisdictions as well as in various
states. The Company has determined that a valuation allowance is
required against all net deferred tax assets in the United
States and certain deferred tax assets in foreign jurisdictions.
As such, there is no United States federal income tax benefit
recorded against current losses.

The Companys net sales for the nine months
ended October 31, 2003 increased $22.9 million from
$1,526.1 million in the nine months ended October 31,
2002 to $1,549.0 million in the nine months ended
October 31, 2003. After adjusting for the net impact of
favorable exchange rate fluctuations, relative to the U.S.
dollar, net sales for the first nine months of 2003 declined
4.9% or approximately $74 million as compared to the same
period in 2002.

Net sales from the Companys Automotive
Wheels segment increased $29.3 million to
$913.0 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2003
from $883.7 million during the first nine months of fiscal
2002. The Companys net sales were favorably impacted by
favorable foreign exchange rate fluctuations relative to the
U.S. dollar, which increased sales by approximately
$81 million, and a favorable product mix. This increase was
partially offset by decreased unit pricing and lower customer
production requirements in North America, primarily due to the
termination and balancing out of certain programs.

Net sales from Components decreased
$21.1 million to $547.5 million during the first nine
months of 2003 from $568.6 million during the same period
in 2002. The decrease in Components net sales was primarily due
to lower customer production requirements, the termination and
balancing out of certain programs and lower unit pricing, and
was partially offset by a more favorable product mix primarily
at the Companys Montague, Michigan facility, which
launched several new programs in 2002. The impact of the closure
of the Companys Petersburg, Michigan facility and the sale
of the Companys Maulbronn, Germany foundry during the
first nine months of fiscal 2002 reduced net sales by
approximately $16 million during the first nine months of
2003 compared to the same period in fiscal 2002. This was
partially offset by the impact of favorable foreign exchange
rate fluctuations, which increased net sales by approximately
$14 million.

Other net sales increased $14.7 million to
$88.5 million during the first nine months of 2003 from
$73.8 million during the first nine months of 2002 due
primarily to higher volumes in the Companys commercial
highway and aftermarket operations.

The Companys earnings from operations
excluding fresh start accounting adjustments and reorganization
items increased by $14.2 million in the first nine months
of fiscal 2003 to $48.7 million, up from earnings of
$34.5 million in the first nine months of 2002. Adjusted
for the net impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations
relative to the U.S. dollar, the Companys earnings from
operations excluding

fresh start accounting adjustments and
reorganization items increased by approximately $6 million
from the first nine months of 2002.


Earnings from operations excluding fresh start
accounting adjustments and reorganization items at the
Companys Automotive Wheels operations increased
$20.6 million from the first nine months of fiscal 2002
compared to the same period in 2003. During the first nine
months of fiscal 2003, Automotive Wheels recorded asset
impairment losses and restructuring charges of
$15.1 million primarily related to its La Mirada,
California and Gainesville, Georgia manufacturing facilities.
During the first nine months of fiscal 2002, Automotive Wheels
recorded $30.2 million of asset impairment losses and other
restructuring charges primarily due to asset impairment losses
of $15.5 million at its La Mirada, California facility,
$3.3 million of impairment losses at its Sedalia, Missouri
and $2.2 million at the Companys Howell, Michigan
facility, as well as $6.7 million in facility closure costs
related to its Somerset, Kentucky facility. Automotive Wheels
recorded asset impairment losses when it determined, based on
its most recent sales projections, that its current estimate of
the future undiscounted cash flows from the facilities would not
be sufficient to recover the carrying value of that
facilitys fixed assets and production tooling and also
when managements plan for the future use of machinery and
equipment changed. The charges recorded at Somerset included
amounts related to lease termination costs and other closure
costs subsequent to the shut down date. The remaining increase
in earnings from the Companys Automotive Wheels operations
excluding fresh start accounting adjustments and reorganization
items is due primarily to improved operating performance and
favorable fluctuations in foreign exchange rates relative to the
U.S. dollar which improved earnings from operations excluding
fresh start accounting adjustments and reorganization items by
approximately $12 million and $7 million,
respectively. This was partially offset by lower OEM production
requirements in North America and higher depreciation and
amortization expense, which decreased earnings from operations
excluding fresh start accounting adjustments and reorganization
items by approximately $8 million and $5 million,
respectively. Earnings from operations excluding fresh start
accounting adjustments and reorganization items for the nine
months ended October 31, 2003 also includes the
$3.6 million fair value adjustment to inventory included in
the Successors opening balance sheet which negatively
impacted earnings.

Components earnings from operations excluding
fresh start accounting adjustments and reorganization items
decreased by $9.0 million in the first nine months of
fiscal 2003 compared to the same period in fiscal 2002. During
the first nine months of fiscal 2002 and 2003, Components
recorded asset impairment losses of $1.1 million and
$10.9 million respectively. Components recorded asset
impairment losses when it determined, based on its most recent
sales projections, that its current estimate of the future
undiscounted cash flows from the Wabash, Indiana facility would
not be sufficient to recover the carrying value of that
facilitys building, fixed assets and production tooling.
Improved operating performance primarily at the Companys
Montague, MI facility and European Components operations
increased earnings from operations excluding fresh start
accounting adjustments and reorganization items by approximately
$29 million during the first nine months of 2003. This
increase was offset by lower OEM production requirements and
higher depreciation and amortization expense, due primarily to
the Companys adoption of fresh start accounting during
emergence from Chapter 11, which decreased earnings from
operations excluding fresh start accounting adjustments and
reorganization items by approximately $18 million and
$12 million, respectively.

Other loss from operations excluding fresh start
accounting adjustments and reorganization items was
$10.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2003
compared to $13.3 million in the same period in 2002. This
difference is due primarily to $4.0 million of
restructuring costs recorded in the nine month period ended
October 31, 2002.

| | ---------------------
| | Interest Expense, net

Interest expense was $47.4 million for the
first nine months of fiscal 2003 and $53.7 million for the
same period of fiscal 2002. Interest expense amounts between the
two periods are not comparable, due to the Companys new
capital structure established upon emergence from
Chapter 11. See Notes (1) and

(11) to the consolidated financial
statements included herein regarding the Companys new
capital structure.


Additionally, interest expense, net, for the
first nine months of fiscal 2003 includes a $2.6 million
net reduction to interest expense as the result of adjusting to
fair value the Companys outstanding Series A Warrants
and Series B Warrants, which are recorded as liabilities on the
consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2003.



| |             
| | ------------
| | Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $69.0 million for the
first nine months of fiscal 2003. This expense is the result of
deferred taxes related to fresh start accounting adjustments in
foreign jurisdictions, $6.5 million of state tax related to
the merger between the Predecessor and HLI, and tax related to
operations in foreign jurisdictions as well as in various
states. The Company has determined that a valuation allowance is
required against all net deferred tax assets in the United
States and certain deferred tax assets in foreign jurisdictions.
As such, there is no United States federal income tax benefit
recorded against current losses.

| | -----------------
| | Net Income (Loss)

The net income for the nine months ended
October 31, 2003 includes an extraordinary gain on
discharge of debt of $1,076.7 million realized upon
emergence from Chapter 11. The net loss for the nine months
ended October 31, 2002 includes the cumulative effect of
change in accounting principle of $554.4 million related to
the adoption of SFAS No. 142 and the impairment of goodwill
of the Predecessor.

| | Liquidity and Capital
    Resources



| |           
| | ----------
| | Cash Flows

The Companys operations provided
$85.6 million in cash in the first nine months of fiscal
2003 compared to $43.9 million in the first nine months of
fiscal 2002. This increase is partially due to the improvement
in domestic vendor payment terms, decreased inventory levels and
higher profits, offset by higher tax and interest payments.

The principal sources of liquidity for the
Companys future operating, capital expenditure, facility
closure, restructuring and reorganization requirements are
expected to be (i) cash flows from operations,
(ii) proceeds from the sale of non-core assets and
businesses, (iii) cash on hand, and (iv) borrowings
under the $100 million Revolving Credit Facility under the
New Credit Facility. While the Company expects that such sources
will meet these requirements, there can be no assurances that
such sources will prove to be sufficient, in part, due to
inherent uncertainties about applicable future capital market
conditions.

Capital expenditures for the first nine months of
fiscal 2003 were $67.4 million. These expenditures were
primarily for additional machinery and equipment to improve
productivity and reduce costs, to meet demand for new vehicle
platforms and to meet expected requirements for the
Companys products. The Company anticipates capital
expenditures for fiscal 2003 will be approximately
$115 million to $125 million relating primarily to
meeting demand for new vehicle platforms and supporting
maintenance and cost reduction programs.

The Company anticipates capital expenditures for
fiscal 2004 will be approximately $140 million relating
primarily to meeting demand for new vehicle platforms and
supporting maintenance and cost reduction programs.

| | Other Liquidity Matters

On November 13, 2003, the Company acquired
an additional 35% ownership interest in its Turkish joint
venture for $13.9 million in cash and will pay an
additional $1.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal

2004. As a result of this acquisition, the
Company owns 60% of the subsidiary, Hayes Lemmerz Jantas Jant
Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S., which will be a consolidated
subsidiary of the Company beginning in the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2003. As part of this transaction, the Company sold an
approximate 7.8% interest in another Turkish subsidiary, Hayes
Lemmerz  Inci Jant Sanayi A.S., for
$2.4 million. This sale reduced the Companys holdings
in Hayes Lemmerz  Inci Jant Sanayi A.S. to 60%.


As more fully discussed above, on June 3,
2003, in connection with the Companys emergence from
Chapter 11, HLI entered into the $550.0 million New
Credit Facility, consisting of the $450.0 million New Term
Loan and the $100.0 million Revolving Credit Facility. HLI
also issued an aggregate of $250.0 million New Senior
Notes. The Company and substantially all of its material direct
and indirect domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed HLIs
obligations under the New Credit Facility, and the Company and
substantially all of its domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed
HLIs obligations under the New Senior Notes. The proceeds
from the initial $450.0 million of borrowings under the New
Credit Facility and the net proceeds from the New Senior Notes
were used to make payments required under the Plan of
Reorganization. As of October 31, 2003, there were no
outstanding borrowings and $22.5 million in letters of
credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility. The amount
available to borrow under the revolving credit facility at
October 31, 2003 was approximately $77.5 million. As
more fully discussed in Note (15), Subsequent Events, to
the consolidated financial statements included herein, the
Company intends to use the net proceeds it receives in a
proposed primary offering of its New Common Stock to repay a
portion of its outstanding debt and for general corporate
purposes.

In addition, upon the Companys emergence
from bankruptcy, all of the Companys existing securities,
including the Old Common Stock, Old Senior Notes and Old
Subordinated Notes, were cancelled. All amounts outstanding
under the Prepetition Credit Agreement were satisfied in
exchange for: (i) a cash payment of $477.3 million;
(ii) 15,930,000 shares of New Common Stock; and
(iii) 53,100 shares of Preferred Stock. All amounts
outstanding under the Old Senior Notes were satisfied in
exchange for: (i) a cash payment of approximately
$13.0 million; (ii) 13,470,000 shares of New
Common Stock; (iii) 44,900 shares of Preferred Stock; and
(iv) a portion of the distributions from the trust
established under the Plan of Reorganization for the benefit of
the prepetition creditors (the Creditors
Trust). All amounts outstanding under the Old Subordinated
Notes were satisfied in exchange for a distribution of
Series A Warrants and a portion of the distributions under
the Creditors Trust. In addition, holders of unsecured
claims will receive an aggregate amount of 600,000 shares
of New Common Stock, 2,000 shares of Preferred Stock, the
Series B Warrants and a portion of the distributions under
the Creditors Trust.

Upon emergence from Chapter 11, the Company:
(i) repaid the DIP Facility in full; (ii) settled
certain of the operating leases discussed below; and
(iii) paid certain other costs and expenses pursuant to the
Plan of Reorganization.

Certain of the Companys operating leases
covering leased assets with an original cost of approximately
$68.0 million contained provisions which, if certain events
occur or conditions were met, including termination of the
lease, might require the Company to purchase or re-sell the
leased assets within a specified period of time, generally one
year, based on amounts specified in the lease agreements. In
connection with the Companys emergence from
Chapter 11, the Company purchased these assets for
$23.6 million.

| | Outlook

The Company derived approximately half of its
fiscal 2002 net sales on a worldwide basis from Ford,
DaimlerChrysler and General Motors and their subsidiaries. The
Companys sales levels and margins could be adversely
affected as a result of pricing pressures caused by new
competitors in foreign markets, such as China. These factors led
to selective resourcing of future business to competitors in the
second quarter of fiscal 2003. Additionally, these customers
have been experiencing decreasing market share in North America
which could result in lower sales volumes for the Company.

The Companys net sales are continually
affected by pressure from its major customers to reduce prices.
The Companys emphasis on reduction of production costs,
increased productivity and improvement of production facilities
has enabled the Company to respond to this pressure.

| | ----------------------------
| | Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of consolidated financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Considerable judgment is often
involved in making these determinations; the use of different
assumptions could result in significantly different results.
Management believes its assumptions and estimates are reasonable
and appropriate, however actual results could differ from those
estimates.



| |                                                            
| | -----------------------------------------------------------
| | Asset impairment losses and other
    restructuring charges

The Companys consolidated statements of
operations included herein reflect an element of operating
expenses described as asset impairments and other restructuring
charges. The Company periodically evaluates whether events and
circumstances have occurred that indicate that the remaining
useful life of any of its long lived assets may warrant revision
or that the remaining balance might not be recoverable. When
factors indicate that the long lived assets should be evaluated
for possible impairment, the Company uses an estimate of the
future undiscounted cash flows generated by the underlying
assets to determine if a write-down is required. If a write-down
is required, the Company adjusts the book value of the impaired
long-lived assets to their estimated fair values. Fair value is
determined through third party appraisals or discounted cash
flow calculations. The related charges are recorded as an asset
impairment or, in the case of certain exit costs in connection
with a plant closure or restructuring, a restructuring or other
charge in the consolidated statements of operations.

As discussed above and in the notes to the
Companys consolidated financial statements included
herein, a number of decisions have occurred or other factors
have indicated that these types of charges are required to be
currently recognized. There can be no assurance that there will
not be additional charges based on future events and that the
additional charges would not have a materially adverse impact on
the Companys financial position and results of operations.



| |                                                            
| | -----------------------------------------------------------
| | Pension and Postretirement Benefits Other than
    Pensions

Annual net periodic expense and benefit
liabilities under the Companys defined benefit plans are
determined on an actuarial basis. Assumptions used in the
actuarial calculations have a significant impact on plan
obligations and expense. Each October, the Company reviews the
actual experience compared to the more significant assumptions
used and makes adjustments to the assumptions, if warranted. The

50



---



##### Table of Contents



healthcare trend rates are reviewed with the
actuaries based upon the results of their review of claims
experience. Discount rates are based upon an expected benefit
payments duration analysis and the equivalent average yield rate
for high-quality fixed-income investments.


Pension benefits are funded through deposits with
trustees and the expected long-term rate of return on fund
assets is based upon actual historical returns modified for
known changes in the market and any expected change in
investment policy. Postretirement benefits are not funded and
our policy is to pay these benefits as they become due.

Certain accounting guidance, including the
guidance applicable to pensions, does not require immediate
recognition of the effects of a deviation between actual and
assumed experience or the revision of an estimate. This approach
allows the favorable and unfavorable effects that fall within an
acceptable range to be netted. Although this netting occurs
outside the basic financial statements, the net amount is
disclosed as an unrecognized gain or loss in the footnotes to
the Companys financial statements. The Company expects to
incur approximately $3.7 million of pension expense and
$14.1 million of retiree benefit costs in fiscal 2003.



| |                            
| | ---------------------------
| | Goodwill Impairment Testing

During fiscal 2002, the Company completed the
implementation of SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill is no
longer amortized. Instead, goodwill and indefinite-lived
intangible assets are tested for impairment in accordance with
the provisions of SFAS No. 142. To accomplish this, the
Company determined the carrying value of each of its reporting
units (i.e., one step below the segment level) by assigning the
assets and liabilities, including existing goodwill and
intangible assets, to the reporting units on February 1,
2002. As of that date, the Company had unamortized goodwill and
other indefinite-lived intangibles of approximately
$758.7 million that were subject to the transition
provisions of SFAS No. 142. The Company determined the fair
value of each reporting unit and compared those fair values to
the carrying values of each reporting unit. To the extent the
carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeded the fair value of
the reporting unit (indicating that goodwill may be impaired),
the Company performed the second step of the transitional
impairment test. This test was required for five reporting units.

In the second step, the Company compared the
implied fair value of the reporting units goodwill with
the carrying value of that goodwill, both of which were measured
at the adoption date. The implied fair value of goodwill was
determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting units
to all of the assets (both recognized and unrecognized) and
liabilities of the reporting units in a similar manner to a
purchase price allocation in accordance with SFAS No. 141,
Business Combinations. The residual fair value after
this allocation was the implied fair value of the reporting
units goodwill. The carrying amounts of these reporting
units exceeded the fair values, and the Company recorded an
impairment charge of $554.4 million as of February 1,
2002 as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.

The Company employed a discounted cash flow
analysis in conducting its impairment tests. Fair value was
determined based upon the discounted cash flows of the reporting
units. Future cash flows are affected by future operating
performance, which will be impacted by economic conditions, car
builds, financial, business and other factors, many of which are
beyond the Companys control.

The Company will test goodwill for impairment
January 31 of each fiscal year, or more frequently should
circumstances change or events occur that would more likely than
not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying
amount, as provided for in SFAS No. 142.

| | ------------------------------------
| | Allowance for uncollectible accounts

The allowance for uncollectible accounts provides
for losses believed to be inherent within the Companys
Receivables, (primarily trade receivables).
Management evaluates both the creditworthiness of specific
customers and the overall probability of losses based upon an
analysis of the overall aging of receivables, past collection
trends and general economic conditions. Management believes,
based on its

51

##### Table of Contents



review, that the allowance for uncollectibles is
adequate to cover potential losses. Actual results may vary as a
result of unforeseen economic events and the impact those events
could have on the Companys customers.

| | ------------------------------------------------------
| | Valuation allowances on deferred income tax
    assets

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax
assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not
that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. Management considers the scheduled reversal of
deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and
tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The Company
expects the deferred tax assets, net of the valuation allowance
to be realized as a result of the reversal of existing taxable
temporary differences in the United States and as a result of
projected future taxable income and the reversal of existing
taxable temporary differences in certain foreign locations. As a
result of managements assessment, a valuation allowance
was recorded. The Company determined that it could not conclude
that it was more likely than not that the benefits of certain
deferred income tax assets would be realized. The valuation
allowance recorded by the Company reduces to zero the net
carrying value of all United States and certain foreign net
deferred tax assets.

| | --------------------------------------------------------
| | Valuation of Series A Warrants and
    Series B Warrants

The Companys Series A Warrants and
Series B Warrants are classified as liabilities that were
initially measured at fair value and will subsequently be
measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in
interest expense. The fair value of the Series A Warrants
and Series B Warrants at emergence was approximately
$9.3 million. As of October 31, 2003, the fair value
of the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants was
approximately $6.7 million. The Series A Warrants and
Series B Warrants were valued utilizing the Black-Scholes
model that requires the estimation of several variables in the
formula.



| |                              
| | -----------------------------
| | New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement
No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments
with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity
(SFAS No. 150). SFAS No. 150 requires that
certain classes of free-standing financial instruments that
embody obligations for entities be classified as liabilities.
Generally, SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial
instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and
is otherwise effective at the beginning of the first interim
period beginning after June 15, 2003. In accordance with
the provisions of SFAS No. 150, the redeemable preferred
stock of HLI Operating Company, Inc., a subsidiary of the
Company, is classified as a liability in the consolidated
balance sheet as of October 31, 2003. Other than this
classification, the adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a
material impact on the financial position or results of
operations of the Company. In November 2003, the FASB issued
FASB Staff Position No. 150-3, Effective Date,
Disclosures, and Transition for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial
Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain
Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests under FASB
Statement 150, which indefinitely deferred the SFAS
No. 150 measurement requirements for mandatorily redeemable
financial instruments. Accordingly, the redeemable preferred
stock of HLI Operating Company, Inc. is recorded at its fair
value upon issuance, plus accrued but unpaid dividends thereon,
as of October 31, 2003.

In April 2003, the FASB issued Statement
No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS
No. 149). SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies
financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for
hedging activities under FASB Statement No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities. SFAS 149 is generally effective for contracts
entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. The
provisions of SFAS No. 149 are required to be applied
prospectively. The adoption of SFAS No. 149 did not have a
material impact on its financial position or results of
operations.

##### Table of Contents



In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation
No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities. Interpretation No. 46 provides guidance for
identifying a controlling interest in a Variable Interest Entity
(VIE) established by means other than voting interests.
Interpretation No. 46 also requires consolidation of a VIE
by an enterprise that holds such a controlling interest when it
is determined that the investor will absorb a majority of the
VIEs expected losses or residual returns, if they occur.
The effective date for this Interpretation is July 1, 2003.
Adoption of this pronouncement did not have any effect on the
Companys financial position or results of operations.

In December 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force
(EITF) issued EITF Issue 00-21,
Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple
Deliverables. EITF 00-21 provides guidance on
determining whether a revenue arrangement contains multiple
deliverable items and if so, requires revenue be allocated
amongst the different items based on fair value. EITF 00-21
also requires revenue on any item in a revenue arrangement with
multiple deliverables not delivered completely must be deferred
until delivery of the item is completed. The effective date of
this Issue for the Company is July 1, 2003. Adoption of
this pronouncement did not have a material effect on the
financial statements of the Company.






Item 3.     Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk


In the normal course of business the Company is
exposed to market risks arising from changes in foreign exchange
rates, interest rates and raw material and utility prices. The
Company may selectively use derivative financial instruments to
manage these risks, but does not enter into any derivative
financial instruments for trading purposes.



| |                 
| | ----------------
| | Foreign Exchange

The Company has global operations and thus makes
investments and enters into transactions in various foreign
currencies. In order to minimize the risks associated with
global diversification, the Company first seeks to internally
net foreign exchange exposures, and uses derivative financial
instruments to hedge any remaining net exposure. The Company
uses forward foreign currency exchange contracts on a limited
basis to reduce the cash flow impact of non-functional currency
denominated transactions. The gains and losses from these
hedging instruments generally offset the gains or losses from
the hedged items and are recognized in the same period the
hedged items are settled. The Company also uses forward foreign
currency exchange contracts to hedge its net investment in
certain of its foreign subsidiaries. The net impact of such
hedges is recorded as currency translation adjustments within
other comprehensive income (loss).



| |               
| | --------------
| | Interest Rates

The Company generally manages its risk associated
with interest rate movements through the use of a combination of
variable and fixed rate debt. Under the Companys
post-emergence capital structure at October 31, 2003,
approximately $471.4 million of the Companys debt was
variable rate debt. A 10% increase or decrease in the interest
rate on variable rate debt would affect earnings by
approximately $2.7 million on an annual basis.



| |              
| | -------------
| | Other Matters

The Company does not believe that sales of its
products are materially affected by inflation, although there
can be no assurance that such an effect will not occur in the
future. In accordance with industry practice, the costs or
benefits of fluctuations in aluminum prices are passed through
to customers. In the United States, the Company adjusts the
sales prices of its aluminum wheels every three to six months,
if necessary, to fully reflect any increase or decrease in the
price of aluminum. As a result, the Companys net sales of
aluminum wheels are adjusted, although gross profit per wheel is
not materially affected. From time to time, the Company enters
into futures contracts or purchase commitments solely to hedge
against possible aluminum price changes that may occur between
the dates of aluminum wheel price adjustments. Pricing and
purchasing practices are similar in Europe, but opportunities to
recover increased material costs from customers are more limited
than in the United States.

Except as previously discussed, for the period
ended October 31, 2003, the Company did not experience any
other material change in market risk exposures affecting the
quantitative and qualitative disclosures as presented in the
Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended January 31, 2003.






Item 4.     Controls
and Procedures


Definition of Controls

Management of the Company, including the
Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, has designed, or caused to be designed, and maintained
disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act
Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 (the Disclosure Controls and
Procedures), to reasonably assure that material
information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within the time periods specified by the SECs rules and
forms and to reasonably assure that such information is
accumulated and communicated to management, including the
Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, in a timely manner to allow for appropriate decisions
regarding required disclosures. Management has also designed
internal controls, including internal controls over financial
reporting (the Internal Controls), to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the
Companys financial reporting and the preparation of the
Companys financial statements in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
(GAAP).

Limitations on the Effectiveness of
Controls

As more fully discussed in the American Institute
of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) auditing
standards pronouncement Consideration Of Internal Control
in a Financial Statement Audit, AU Section 319,
paragraphs .21 to .24, an internal control system, no
matter how well designed and operated, can provide only
reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control objectives
will be met. Limitations inherent in any system of internal
controls might include, among other things, (i) faulty
human judgment and simple errors or mistakes,
(ii) collusion of two or more people or inappropriate
management override of procedures, (iii) imprecision in
estimating and judging cost-benefit relationships in designing
controls and (iv) reductions in the effectiveness of one
deterring component (such as a strong cultural and governance
environment) by a conflicting component (such as may be found in
certain management incentive plans). Because of such inherent
limitations in any system of internal controls, no evaluation of
controls can provide absolute assurance that all weaknesses or
instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

The Company, including its Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes that the
aforementioned limitations apply to any applicable system of
internal controls, including the Disclosure Controls and
Procedures and Internal Controls. The Company will continue the
process of identifying and implementing corrective actions where
required to improve the effectiveness of its Disclosure Controls
and Procedures and Internal Controls. Significant supplemental
resources may continue to be required to prepare the required
financial and other information during this ongoing process.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and
Procedures

The Company maintains a disclosure committee
reporting to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company to
assist the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
in fulfilling their responsibility in designing, establishing,
maintaining and reviewing the Companys Disclosure Controls
and Procedures (the Disclosure Committee). The
Disclosure Committee is currently chaired by the Companys
Chief Financial Officer and includes the Companys General
Counsel, Vice President of Human Resources and Administration,
Corporate Controller, Treasurer, Director of Accounting,
Director of Internal Audit, Senior Counsel, and Manager of
Financial Reporting and Governance as its other members. As of
the end of the period covered by this report, the Companys
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, along with
the Disclosure Committee, evaluated the Companys
Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The

54



---



##### Table of Contents



Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer have concluded, subject to the limitations
noted above, that the Disclosure Controls and Procedures are
effective based on such evaluation.


Changes in Internal Controls

There were no significant changes in the
Companys Internal Controls or in other factors that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect,
Internal Controls over financial reporting during the most
recent fiscal quarter.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION







|        |                  
|------- | -----------------
|Item 1. | Legal Proceedings

On February 19, 2002, the Company issued
restated consolidated financial statements as of and for the
fiscal years ended January 31, 2001 and 2000, and related
quarterly periods (the 10-K/A), and for the fiscal
quarter ended April 30, 2001 (the 10-Q/A). The
restatement was the result of failure by the Company to properly
apply certain accounting standards generally accepted in the
United States of America, and because certain accounting errors
and irregularities in the Companys financial statements
were identified. The Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC) is conducting an investigation into the facts
and circumstances giving rise to the restatement, and the
Company has been and intends to continue cooperating with the
SEC by providing requested documents and cooperating with
depositions of Company employees. The Company cannot predict the
outcome of the investigation.

On May 3, 2002, a group of purported
purchasers of the Companys bonds commenced a putative
class action lawsuit against thirteen present or former
directors and officers of the Company (but not the Company) and
KPMG LLP, the Companys independent auditor, in the United
States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan. The
complaint seeks damages for an alleged class of persons who
purchased Company bonds between June 3, 1999 and
September 5, 2001 and claim to have been injured because
they relied on the Companys allegedly materially false and
misleading financial statements. On June 27, 2002, the
plaintiffs filed an amended class action complaint adding CIBC
World Markets Corp. and Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation,
underwriters for certain bonds issued by the Company, as
defendants. These claims were not discharged upon the
effectiveness of the Plan of Reorganization because they are
against the Companys present and former directors and
officers and KPMG LLP, and not against the Company.

Additionally, before the date the Company
commenced its Chapter 11 Bankruptcy case, four other
putative class actions were filed in the United States District
Court for the Eastern District of Michigan against the Company
and certain of its directors and officers, on behalf of a class
of purchasers of the Companys Old Common Stock from
June 3, 1999 to December 13, 2001, based on similar
allegations of securities fraud. These claims, as against the
Company, but not as against the Companys officers and
directors, were discharged upon the effectiveness of the Plan of
Reorganization. On May 10, 2002, the plaintiffs filed a
consolidated and amended class action complaint seeking damages
against the Companys present and former officers and
directors (but not the Company) and KPMG LLP. Pursuant to the
Companys Plan of Reorganization, the Company purchased
directors and officers liability insurance for
certain of these current and former directors and officers and
agreed to indemnify such individuals against certain
liabilities, including those matters described above, up to an
aggregate of $10 million in excess of any coverage to or
for the benefit of all indemnitees.

On June 13, 2002, the Company filed an
adversary complaint and motion for a preliminary injunction in
the Bankruptcy Court requesting the Court to stay the class
action litigation commenced by the bond purchasers and equity
purchasers. Additionally, on July 25, 2002, the Company
filed with the Bankruptcy Court a motion to lift the automatic
stay in the Chapter 11 Filings to allow the insurance
company that provides officer and director liability insurance
to the Company to pay the defense costs of the Companys
present and former officers and directors in such litigation.
The Bankruptcy Court has since entered an order permitting the
insurance company to pay up to $500,000 in defense costs
incurred by the Companys present and former officers and
directors in the litigation subject to certain conditions, which
amount has subsequently been increased to $800,000 pursuant to
further authority in the order. The Company has withdrawn its
motion for a preliminary injunction.

During the pendency of the Chapter 11
Filings, the Company took action to terminate certain marketing
and support services, technology license and technical
assistance and shareholders agreements (the
Agreements) relating to the Companys 40%
interest in Hayes Wheels de Mexico, S.A. de C.V., a Mexican
corporation manufacturing aluminum and steel wheels (HW de
Mexico). In the event that such termination is not
effective for any reason, the Company also filed a protective
motion with the

Bankruptcy Court seeking to reject the
Agreements. DESC Automotriz, S.A. de C.V. (the 60% owner of
HW-Mexico) (DESC), HW de Mexico, and Hayes Wheels
Aluminio, S.A. de C.V. (a subsidiary of HW de Mexico) have
asserted administrative expense claims against the Company in an
amount not less than $20.6 million relating to allegedly
improper actions taken by the Company with respect to HW de
Mexico and certain of the Agreements during the Chapter 11
Filings. As part of the resolution of its objection to
confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization, the Company has
agreed with DESC that if either the Company or Hayes Lemmerz
International-Mexico, Inc. is found liable on these claims and
such claims are entitled to administrative expense claim status,
the Company will pay such liabilities in full in cash in the
amount determined by the court to be entitled to administrative
expense claim status. On June 30, 2003, the Bankruptcy
Court ordered Hayes Mexico to arbitrate the claims in Mexico
City, Mexico. The Company and Hayes Mexico have appealed that
order to the District Court. This appeal is pending. The Company
is presently in discussions with DESC regarding a resolution of
these claims; however, there can be no assurance that such
discussions will result in a resolution of this dispute or what
the terms of any resolution may be.


In October 2003, General Electric Credit
Corporation (GECC) filed an amended administrative
claim in the Bankruptcy Court for $7.5 million relating to
certain leased equipment. The leases were rejected during the
Companys Chapter 11 cases. GECC is alleging that its
damages were incurred post-petition because the equipment was
returned post-petition. If the Bankruptcy Court determines that
GECCs damages are a post-petition expense, GECC may be
entitled to an administrative claim for the claims full
amount. The Company is disputing the amount and the merits of
GECCs claim.

The Company is a defendant in a patent
infringement matter filed in 1997 in the United States District
Court, Eastern District of Michigan. Lacks Incorporated
(Lacks) alleged that the Company infringed on three
patents held by Lacks relating to chrome-plated plastic cladding
for steel wheels. Prior to fiscal 2000, the Federal
District Court dismissed all claims relating to two of the three
patents that Lacks claimed were infringed and dismissed many of
the claims relating to the third patent. The remaining claims
relating to the third patent were submitted to a special master.
In January 2001, the special master issued a report finding that
Lacks third patent was invalid and recommending that
Lacks remaining claims be dismissed, the trial court
accepted these recommendations. Lacks appealed this matter to
the Federal Circuit Court. The Federal Circuit Court vacated the
trial courts ruling that the third patent was invalid and
remanded the matter back to the trial court for further
proceedings. In addition to the Companys defenses in the
lawsuit, the Company has certain rights of indemnification
against a co-defendant in the matter that supplied the allegedly
infringing products to the Company.

The Company was party to a license agreement with
Kuhl Wheels, LLC (Kuhl), whereby Kuhl granted the
Company an exclusive patent license concerning high
vent steel wheel technology known as the Kuhl Wheel (the
Kuhl Wheel), which agreement was terminated as of
January 10, 2003 pursuant to a stipulation between the
Company and Kuhl entered in connection with the Companys
bankruptcy proceeding. The original license agreement (as
amended, the License Agreement), dated May 11,
1999, granted the Company a non-exclusive license for the Kuhl
Wheel technology. The License Agreement was subsequently amended
to provide the Company with an exclusive worldwide license. On
January 14, 2003, the Company filed a Complaint for
Declaratory and Injunctive Relief against Kuhl and its
affiliate, Epilogics Group, in the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Michigan. The Company commenced such
action seeking a declaration of noninfringement of two United
States patents and injunctive relief to prevent Epilogics Group
and Kuhl from asserting claims of patent infringement against
the Company, and disclosing and using the Companys
technologies, trade secrets and confidential information to
develop, market, license, manufacture or sell automotive wheels.

In the ordinary course of its business, the
Company is a party to other judicial and administrative
proceedings involving its operations and products, which may
include allegations as to manufacturing quality, design and
safety. After reviewing the proceedings that are currently
pending (including the probable outcomes, reasonably anticipated
costs and expenses, availability and limits of insurance rights
under indemnification agreements and established reserves for
uninsured liabilities), management believes

that the outcome of these proceedings will not
have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or
ongoing results of operations of the Company.
