The quarterly revenue of $1.096 billion was the company's 14th consecutive quarter of year-over-year revenue growth. The increase over $996 million in third quarter 2004 was driven by higher global original equipment (OE) production volumes and $19 million in favorable currency.
Tenneco Automotive's performance in the third quarter was driven by its platform mix with products on strong selling vehicles globally; improved aftermarket ride control volumes in North America and Europe; benefits from the company's ongoing manufacturing efficiency programs; and reduced costs through tight controls on discretionary spending. These efforts helped offset the negative impact of higher material costs and higher transportation costs due to fuel surcharges.
"We delivered another solid quarter in spite of very challenging market conditions," said Mark P. Frissora, chairman, CEO and president, Tenneco Automotive. "Our ability to execute on consistent strategies for growing the top-line while managing costs is proving successful despite lower OE industry production volumes in North America and Europe, our two largest markets, and the impact of higher material and fuel costs globally."
Cash generated by operations in the quarter was $33 million, which on a year-over-year comparison basis includes a $9 million negative impact from the discontinuation of General Motor's advanced payment program and a $20 million cash outflow for incremental pension contributions. Cash generated by operations was $76 million for the same period one year ago. The remaining difference in the year-over-year comparison was due to working capital requirements -- primarily in accounts receivables -- to support approximately $100 million in higher revenue in the quarter.
At quarter-end, total debt was $1.429 billion, compared with $1.423 billion the previous year. Debt net of cash was $1.340 billion versus $1.220 billion a year ago, primarily due to the discontinuation of advance payment programs by General Motors, Ford and DaimlerChrysler, which increased debt by $103 million over the last 12 months. Debt net of cash at June 30, 2005 was $1.346 billion.
During the quarter, Tenneco resolved a commercial lawsuit that is recorded as other income and settled a customer issue, which is netted against revenue. The net of these transactions had no financial impact on the company's operating results.
The company's gross margin decreased 1.2 percentage points year-over-year to 18.9%. Gross margin was negatively impacted by higher steel costs, fuel surcharges on transportation costs and a shifting business mix between Europe and North America, and between OE and aftermarket businesses. Additionally, resolution of the OE customer issue mentioned above reduced gross margin. These factors offset savings and improved efficiencies from Lean manufacturing, Six Sigma and other cost reduction initiatives.
Total steel cost increases in the third quarter were $33 million, which were largely offset by the company's cost reduction efforts, including SGA&E restructuring savings, material cost savings, Six Sigma program savings and Lean manufacturing efficiencies as well as steel cost recovery from OE and aftermarket customers. Based on the company's efforts to offset increased steel costs and trends in the steel market, the company doesn't currently anticipate a significant year-over-year impact on operating results through the remainder of 2005.
Sales, General, Administrative and Engineering (SGA&E) expense in the quarter was 10.8% of sales versus 11.3% a year ago. SGA&E improvement was driven by higher revenues, cutbacks on discretionary spending and benefits from previously announced restructuring programs.
Tenneco Automotive continued to outperform its bank debt covenants in the quarter. At September 30, the leverage ratio was 3.39, lower than the maximum limit of 4.50; the fixed charge ratio was 2.05, exceeding the minimum ratio of 1.10; and the interest coverage ratio was 3.12, exceeding the minimum ratio of 2.00.
NORTH AMERICA
-- North American OE revenue was up 9% to $369 million, versus $338
million a year ago. Excluding the impact of currency and catalytic
converter pass-through sales, revenue was up 11%, outperforming a
light vehicle market production decline of 2%. The increase was
driven by the company's platform mix with products on strong selling
vehicles.
-- North American aftermarket revenue was $133 million, up 5% year-over-
year. Stronger ride control volumes and price increases in both
product lines helped offset lower emission control volumes.
-- EBIT for North American operations was $37 million, versus $31 million
in third quarter 2004. Stronger OE volumes and manufacturing
efficiencies more than offset unrecovered steel costs, higher
advertising costs to support the company's ride control aftermarket
product lines and the launch costs for its new line of aftermarket
brake products.
EUROPE, SOUTH AMERICA, INDIA
-- European OE revenue was $341 million, versus $305 million a year ago.
Adjusted for favorable currency, catalytic converter pass-through
sales and a change in reporting for a customer contract, revenue was
up 14%. The year-over-year improvement -- despite a market production
decline of 1% -- was driven by the continued ramp up of new launches
and a favorable platform mix with product on many of the better
selling vehicles.
-- European aftermarket revenue was $97 million, versus $94 million the
previous year. The 3% improvement was primarily due to stronger ride
control volumes and price increases in both product lines.
-- South America and India revenue was $62 million, including $8 million
in favorable currency, compared with $45 million a year ago. Stronger
OE volumes drove the increase.
-- EBIT for Europe, South America and India was $9 million, versus $10
million in third quarter 2004. The EBIT decrease was the result of
currency transactional losses with a $2 million negative impact,
manufacturing inefficiencies due to inventory reductions in the
quarter, costs for implementing a resource planning system for the
company's European emission control business and a reserve increase
related to a pending legal settlement.
-- Third quarter 2004 and 2005 EBIT results include $2 million in
restructuring related expenses.
ASIA PACIFIC
-- Asia operations generated $38 million in revenue, versus $37 million a
year ago.
-- Australian revenue increased to $56 million from $50 million the
previous year, largely driven by $4 million in favorable currency.
-- EBIT for Asia Pacific operations was $4 million, up from $3 million a
year ago. EBIT was up despite OE revenue weakness in China and
investments to increase Tenneco's aftermarket presence there.
YEAR-TO-DATE RESULTS
Through the first nine months of the year, Tenneco Automotive reported net income of $50 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, versus net income of $34 million, or 78-cents per diluted share for the first nine months of 2004. On an adjusted basis, year-to-date 2005 net income was $56 million, or $1.24 per diluted share, versus adjusted net income of $44 million, or $1.01 per diluted share for the same period one year ago.
Year-to-date EBIT was $177 million, compared with EBIT of $153 million for the first nine months of 2004. Adjusted EBIT was $184 million versus $177 million a year ago. Year-to-date 2005 EBITDA was $311 million, compared with $284 million a year ago, and adjusted EBITDA was $318 million, versus adjusted EBITDA of $308 million for the same period a year ago.
OUTLOOK
"We do not expect an immediate turnaround in OE production rates in North America or Europe, and we are closely monitoring the aftermarket in those regions for a potential drop in consumer spending on vehicle maintenance due to higher fuel prices. This landscape, coupled with continuing increases in material costs and the impact of higher fuel costs on our transportation expenses, creates a tough operating environment going forward," Frissora said. "As a result, we will continue to focus on those areas within our control- namely executing with discipline on the fundamentals and maintaining a relentless focus on costs. We should also continue to benefit from our balance and diversification in terms of products, markets served and customers. Finally, we will capitalize on opportunities to win incremental OE and aftermarket business from our competitors."

calculation based upon generally accepted accounting principles. The
amounts included in the EBITDA calculation, however, are derived from
amounts included in the historical statements of income data. In
addition, EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net
income or operating income as an indicator of the company's operating
performance, or as an alternative to operating cash flows as a measure
of liquidity. Tenneco Automotive has presented EBITDA because it

In addition, Tenneco Automotive believes its debt holders utilize and

believes EBITDA assists investors in comparing a company's performance

which can vary significantly depending upon many factors. However,
the EBITDA measure presented may not always be comparable to similarly

(1) Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
(2) Tenneco Automotive presents the above reconciliation of GAAP to
non-GAAP earnings measures in order to reflect the results for the
third quarters of 2005 and 2004 in a manner that allows a better
understanding of the results of operational activities separate from
the financial impact of decisions made for the long-term benefit of
the company. Adjustments similar to the ones reflected above have
been recorded in earlier periods, and similar types of adjustments can
reasonably be expected to be recorded in future periods. Using only
the non-GAAP earnings measures to analyze earnings would have material
limitations because its calculation is based on the subjective
determinations of management regarding the nature and classification
of events and circumstances that investors may find material.
Management compensates for these limitations by utilizing both GAAP
and non-GAAP earnings measures reflected above to understand and
analyze the results of the business. The company believes investors
find the non-GAAP information helpful in understanding the ongoing
performance of operations separate from items that may have a
disproportionate positive or negative impact on the company's
financial results in any particular period.

non-GAAP earnings measures in order to reflect the results for the six
months of 2005 and 2004 in a manner that allows a better understanding
of the results of operational activities separate from the financial
impact of decisions made for the long-term benefit of the company.
Adjustments similar to the ones reflected above have been recorded in
earlier periods, and similar types of adjustments can reasonably be
expected to be recorded in future periods. Using only the non-GAAP
earnings measures to analyze earnings would have material limitations
because its calculation is based on the subjective determinations of
management regarding the nature and classification of events and
circumstances that investors may find material. Management
compensates for these limitations by utilizing both GAAP and non-GAAP
earnings measures reflected above to understand and analyze the
results of the business. The company believes investors find the
non-GAAP information helpful in understanding the ongoing performance
of operations separate from items that may have a disproportionate
positive or negative impact on the company's financial results in any
particular period.
(3) See Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income to EBITDA on previous page.
EBITDA represents income before interest expense, income taxes,
minority interest and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not a
calculation based upon generally accepted accounting principles. The
amounts included in the EBITDA calculation, however, are derived from
amounts included in the historical statements of income data. In
addition, EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net
income or operating income as an indicator of the company's operating
performance, or as an alternative to operating cash flows as a measure
of liquidity. Tenneco Automotive has presented EBITDA because it
regularly reviews EBITDA as a measure of the company's performance.
In addition, Tenneco Automotive believes its debt holders utilize and
analyze our EBITDA for similar purposes. Tenneco Automotive also
believes EBITDA assists investors in comparing a company's performance
on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation and amortization,
which can vary significantly depending upon many factors. However,
the EBITDA measure presented may not always be comparable to similarly
titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the
components of the calculation.

Tenneco Automotive presents the above reconciliation of revenues in order to reflect the trend in the company's sales, in various product lines and geographical regions, separately from the effects of doing business in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Additionally, pass-through catalytic converter sales include precious metals pricing, which may be volatile. While Tenneco Automotive's original equipment customers assume the risk of this volatility, it impacts reported revenue. Excluding pass-through catalytic converter sales removes this impact. Tenneco Automotive uses this information to analyze the trend in revenues before these factors. Tenneco Automotive believes investors find this information useful in understanding period to period comparisons in the company's revenues.
(a) Beginning in the second quarter of 2005, Tenneco Automotive changed
its accounting for a customer contract in its European OE Ride Control
unit. The cost of sales for this contract are now netted against the
revenues, reducing reported revenues and cost of sales. In the third
quarter of 2004, Tenneco Automotive recorded $15 million in revenues
for this contract.
