PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
The Company
TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. (together with its subsidiaries, ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘our,’’ ‘‘us,’’ ‘‘TRW
Automotive’’ or the ‘‘Company’’) is a Delaware corporation formed in 2002 with a business history
stretching back to the turn of the twentieth century. Our common stock is traded on the New York
Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol TRW.
The Company is among the world’s largest and most diversified suppliers of automotive systems,
modules and components to global automotive original equipment manufacturers (‘‘OEMs’’) and
related aftermarkets. We conduct substantially all of our operations through subsidiaries. These
operations primarily encompass the design, manufacture and sale of active and passive safety related
products and systems. Active safety related products and systems principally refer to vehicle dynamic
controls (primarily braking and steering) and electronics (primarily driver assist cameras and radars),
and passive safety related products and systems principally refer to occupant restraints (primarily
airbags and seat belts) and electronics (primarily airbag electronic control units, and crash and
occupant weight sensors).
We operate our business along four segments: Chassis Systems, Occupant Safety Systems,
Electronics and Automotive Components. We are primarily a ‘‘Tier 1’’ original equipment supplier, with
approximately 83% of our end-customer sales in 2013 made to major OEMs. Of our 2013 sales,
approximately 41% were in Europe, 36% were in North America, 19% were in Asia, and 4% were in
the rest of the world.

Business Developments, Strategy, and Industry Trends


Our Business Developments and Strategy. We are a leader in the global automotive supply industry
due to the strength of our products and systems, technological capabilities and systems integration
skills. Over the last decade, we have experienced sales growth in many of our product lines, due to an
increasing focus by both governments and consumers on safety and fuel efficiency and increasing
recognition of new safety technologies by new car assessment programs. We believe that such focus is
continuing as evidenced by ongoing regulatory activities, as well as advances in the electrification of
vehicles. We believe that these trends will help drive growth in our advanced safety and fuel efficient
products and systems, which include: electronic stability control systems, brake controls for regenerative
brake systems, electric park brake and electrically assisted power steering systems, curtain and side
airbag systems, active seat belt pretensioning and retractor systems, occupant sensing systems, front and

2
side crash sensors, vehicle rollover sensors, tire pressure monitoring systems, active cruise control/
collision warning systems and lane keeping/lane departure warning systems.
Throughout our long history as a leading supplier to major OEMs, we have focused on products
and systems for which we have a technological advantage. We have extensive technical experience in a
focused range of safety-related product lines and strong systems integration skills. These strengths
enable us to provide comprehensive, systems-based solutions for our OEM customers. We have a broad
and established global presence and sell to major OEMs across the world’s major vehicle producing
regions, including the expanding Chinese and Brazilian markets. We believe our business diversification
mitigates our exposure to the risks of any one geographic economy, product line or major customer
concentration. It also enables us to extend our portfolio of products and new technologies across our
customer base and geographic regions, and provides us the necessary scale to optimize our cost
structure.
In general, our long-term strategic objectives are geared toward profitably growing our business,
expanding our newer, innovative technologies, winning new contracts, generating cash, strengthening
our market position, and enhancing long-term shareholder value. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our
competitive position in the global automotive supply industry and determine what actions may be
required to maintain and improve that position.
We believe that a continued focus on research, development and engineering activities is critical to
maintaining our leadership position in the industry and meeting our long-term objectives. We also
continue to focus on our growth strategies, cash generation and capital structure improvement, while
managing through near-term industry challenges, such as the lingering relative weakness in economic
conditions in Europe, and yet-developing infrastructures in emerging markets (e.g., Brazil). Our
commitment to invest in facilities and infrastructure in order to support new business awards and
achieve our long-term growth plans is evidenced by our projections of continued increases in capital
expenditures through 2014.

Focus on Safety. Consumers, and therefore OEMs, are increasingly focused on, and governments
and International New Car Assessment Programs (‘‘NCAP’’) are increasingly requiring improved safety
in vehicles. In both North America and Europe, legislation was enacted in recent years to require that
electronic stability control systems (‘‘ESC’’) be fitted as standard equipment on all new car models
starting in 2012. Further, over the last few years, automobile safety regulations in emerging markets
have increased significantly. For example, Brazil’s government is mandating the use of driver and
passenger airbags and anti-lock braking systems for all vehicles sold in the Brazilian market by 2014.
NCAP crash test rating standards continue to become more stringent. For example, in the U.S.,
starting with 2011 models, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (‘‘NHTSA’’) introduced
tougher tests and rigorous new 5-star safety ratings that include information about vehicle safety and
crash avoidance technologies. In 2013, Euro NCAP began testing vehicles equipped with crash
avoidance technologies in anticipation of the inclusion of such systems in the overall safety rating in
2014. More specifically, following the completion of detailed protocols to test the effectiveness of
autonomous emergency braking and forward collision warning systems, Euro NCAP will assess both
low-speed (‘City’) and higher speed (‘Inter-Urban’) systems to see how well they help drivers to avoid
or to mitigate a crash. Programs in China, among others, are similarly increasing the stringency of their
testing requirements, with both China NCAP and Latin NCAP having established new testing and
rating protocols in 2012 and 2013, respectively.
The Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety
(‘‘IIHS’’) monitor and report vehicle manufacturer compliance with voluntary performance criteria
which encompass a wide range of occupant protection technologies and designs, including enhanced
matching of vehicle front structural components and enhanced side-impact protection through the use
of features such as side airbags, airbag curtains and revised side-impact structures. Beginning in 2012,

3
IIHS rolled out a new, more severe version of its offset frontal crash test, which puts more structural
stress on vehicles and exposes more weaknesses that can contribute to occupant injuries in real-world
crashes. IIHS also has adopted testing protocols for crash avoidance systems and released during 2013
their first crash avoidance ratings of low-speed systems in the United States.

Focus on Fuel Efficiency and Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Consumers, and therefore OEMs, are
increasingly focused on, and governments are increasingly requiring, improved fuel efficiency and
reduced greenhouse gas emissions from vehicles. In 2012, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(the ‘‘EPA’’) and NHTSA jointly approved a rule requiring model year 2017 through 2025 passenger
cars, light-duty trucks and medium-duty passenger vehicles to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and
improve fuel economy. These standards require those vehicles to meet a specified average emission
level in model year 2025 equivalent to 54.5 miles per gallon, if achieved exclusively through fuel
economy improvements. These standards include miles per gallon requirements under NHTSA’s
Corporate Average Fuel Economy Standards (‘‘CAFE’’) program. In 2012, the European Commission
proposed regulations to reduce the average CO2 emissions of all new passenger cars sold in Europe by
30% to 95 grams per kilometer by 2020; and for light trucks and vans by 19% to 147 grams per
kilometer by 2020. In 2013, the United States announced it will provide assistance to China in drafting
stricter emissions standards. As such the EPA and the Department of Energy will assist China with its
VI standards which, along with its China V standards, will reduce allowable sulfur content by 80% by
2017.
The desire to lessen environmental impacts and reduce oil dependence is also spurring interest in
green technologies and alternative fuels. As such, there is an increased focus on production of
advanced powertrain, direct injection and start/stop technologies and hybrid and electric vehicles
because of their fuel efficiency, and developing ethanol, hydrogen, natural gas and other clean burning
fuel sources for vehicles.

Globalization. The automotive industry continues to become more global and both OEMs and
suppliers must balance resources and production capacity to efficiently address diverse consumer needs
and preferences as well as unique market dynamics. Developing automotive markets such as China and
Brazil represent significant growth opportunities; however, vehicle affordability remains a challenge in
these markets, highlighting the need for OEMs and suppliers to meet differing requirements of
consumers in both mature and emerging markets. To lower costs, OEMs continue to shift their
production facilities from high-cost regions such as the U.S., Canada, and Western Europe to
lower-cost regions such as China, Eastern Europe, and Mexico. Through these localization efforts, labor
and transportation costs can be lowered, while positioning operations in markets with the highest
potential for future growth. Additionally, to serve multiple markets more cost effectively, OEMs
continue to move to fewer and more global vehicle platforms, which typically are designed in one
location but are produced and sold in many different markets around the world, thereby enabling
design cost savings and economies of scale through the production of a greater number of models from
each platform. Suppliers having operations in the geographic markets in which OEMs produce global
platforms are better positioned to meet OEMs’ needs more economically and efficiently, thus making
global coverage a source of significant competitive advantage.

Increased Electronic Content and Electronics Integration. The electronic content of vehicles has
increased in recent years. Consumer and regulatory requirements in Europe and the United States for
improved automotive safety and environmental performance, as well as consumer demand for increased
vehicle performance and functionality at lower cost, have largely driven the increase in electronic
content. Electronics integration generally refers to replacing mechanical with electronic components
and integrating mechanical and electrical functions within the vehicle. This allows OEMs to achieve a
reduction in the weight of vehicles and the number of mechanical parts, resulting in easier assembly,
enhanced fuel economy, improved emissions control, increased safety and better vehicle performance.

4
We believe that electronic content per vehicle will continue to increase as consumers seek more
competitively-priced ride and handling performance, safety, security and convenience options in
vehicles, such as electronic stability control, electric power steering, active cruise control, airbags,
keyless and passive entry, tire pressure monitoring and camera- and radar-based driver assist systems.

Inflation and Pricing Pressure. Overall commodity volatility is an ongoing concern in the industry
and has been a considerable operational and financial focus for us. As production levels rise,
commodity inflationary pressures may increase, both in the automotive industry and in the broader
economy. We continue to monitor commodity costs and work with our suppliers and customers to
manage changes in such costs. However, when costs increase, it is generally difficult to pass the full
extent of increased prices for manufactured components and raw materials through to our customers in
the form of price increases and, even if passed through to some extent, the recovery is typically on a
delayed basis.
Additionally, pressure from OEM customers to reduce prices is characteristic of the automotive
supply industry. Virtually all OEMs have policies of seeking price reductions each year. Historically, we
have taken steps to reduce costs and minimize or resist price reductions. However, to the extent our
cost reductions are not sufficient to support committed price reductions, our profit margins could be
negatively affected.

Product Mix. Product mix tends to be influenced by a variety of factors such as gasoline prices,
consumer income and wealth and governmental regulations (e.g. fuel economy standards driving higher
volumes of small car production). In Europe, demand has historically tended to be toward smaller,
more fuel efficient vehicles. In North America, product mix tends to be more correlated to short-term
fluctuations in the price of gasoline and consumer sentiment and wealth, thereby causing production to
swing between sport utility vehicles/light trucks and more economical passenger cars. Recent
improvements in the North American housing market have led to a higher level of light duty pickup
truck production in 2013. In general, sport utility vehicles and light duty pickup trucks tend to be more
profitable for OEMs and suppliers, while smaller, more fuel efficient vehicles tend to be less profitable
for OEMs and suppliers.

Supply Base. As production levels fluctuate and overall economic concerns remain, Tier 2 and
Tier 3 suppliers face the challenges of managing through increased working capital and capital
expenditure requirements. There are concerns about suppliers’ viability stemming from broader industry
restructuring actions in Europe. Further, in some cases, capacity constraints, limited availability of raw
materials or components or financial instability of the Tier 2 and Tier 3 supply base pose a risk of
supply disruption to us. We have experienced additional costs due to such factors and we may continue
to incur such costs in the future. We have dedicated resources and systems to closely monitor the
viability and performance of our supply base and are constantly evaluating opportunities to mitigate the
risk and/or effects of any supplier disruption.

Foreign Currencies. Our operating results will continue to be impacted by our buying, selling and
borrowing in currencies other than the functional currency of our operating companies. In order to
abate the impact of fluctuations in exchange rates between these currencies and to delay the impact of
adverse exchange rate trends, we utilize hedging instruments where appropriate, taking into
consideration their cost and their effectiveness.

Chassis Systems
Our Chassis Systems segment focuses on the design, manufacture and sale of products and systems
relating to braking, steering, modules, and linkage and suspension. We sell our Chassis Systems
products and systems primarily to OEMs and other Tier 1 suppliers. We also sell these products and
systems to the global aftermarket through both OEM service organizations and independent
distribution networks. We believe our Chassis Systems segment is well-positioned to capitalize on
growth trends toward (1) increasing active safety systems, particularly in the areas of electric power
steering, electronic vehicle stability control and other advanced braking systems and integrated vehicle
control systems; (2) increasing electronic content per vehicle; (3) integration of active and passive safety
systems; (4) improving fuel economy and reducing CO2 emissions and (5) legislative- and market-driven
demand in emerging markets.

Occupant Safety Systems


Our Occupant Safety Systems segment focuses on the design, manufacture and sale of products
and systems relating to airbags, seat belts, and steering wheels. We sell our Occupant Safety Systems
products and systems primarily to OEMs and other Tier 1 suppliers. We also sell these products and
systems to OEM service organizations. We believe our Occupant Safety Systems segment is
well-positioned to capitalize on growth trends toward (1) increasing passive safety systems, particularly
in the areas of side, curtain and knee airbag systems, and active seat belt pretensioning and retractor
systems; (2) increasing electronic content per vehicle; (3) integration of active and passive safety
systems and (4) legislative- and market-driven demand in emerging markets.

6

Our Electronics segment focuses on the design, manufacture and sale of electronics components
and systems in the areas of safety, chassis, radio frequency (‘‘RF’’), powertrain, and camera- and radar-
based driver assistance. We sell our Electronics products and systems primarily to OEMs and to our
Chassis Systems segment (braking and steering applications). We also sell these products and systems to
OEM service organizations. We believe our Electronics segment is well-positioned to capitalize on
growth trends toward (1) increasing electronic content per vehicle; (2) increasing active safety systems,
particularly in the areas of electric power steering, electronic vehicle stability control and integrated
vehicle control systems; (3) increasing passive safety systems, particularly in the areas of side, curtain
and knee airbag systems and active seat belt pretensioning and retractor systems; (4) integration of
active and passive safety systems; (5) improving fuel economy and reducing CO2 emissions and
(6) legislative- and market-driven demand in emerging markets.

Automotive Components
Our Automotive Components segment focuses on the design, manufacture and sale of body
controls, engine valves, and engineered fasteners and components. We sell our Automotive Components
products primarily to OEMs and other Tier 1 suppliers, and to certain non-automotive markets and
customers. We also sell these products to OEM service organizations. In addition, we sell some engine
valve and body control products to independent distributors for the automotive aftermarket. We believe
our Automotive Components segment is well-positioned to capitalize on growth trends toward
(1) multi-valve and more fuel-efficient engines; (2) increasing electronic content per vehicle;
(3) improving fuel economy and reducing CO2 emissions and (4) legislative- and market-driven demand
in emerging markets.

Financial Information About Geographic Areas


We have significant manufacturing operations outside the United States and, in 2013,
approximately 71% of our sales originated outside the United States. See Note 18 to our consolidated
financial statements included in Item 8 of this Report for financial information by geographic area.
Also, see Item 1A ‘‘Risk Factors’’ for a description of risks inherent in our international operations.

Customers
We sell to all major OEM customers across the world’s major vehicle producing regions. We also
sell products to the global aftermarket as replacement parts for current production and older vehicles,
through both OEM service organizations and independent distribution networks. Although business
with any given customer is typically split among numerous contracts, the loss of, or a significant
reduction in purchases by, one or more of those major customers could materially and adversely affect
our business, results of operations and financial condition. Primary end-customer sales (by OEM group)
for the years ended December 31, were:

Competition
The automotive supply industry is extremely competitive. OEMs rigorously evaluate us and other
suppliers based on many criteria such as quality, price/cost competitiveness, product and system
performance, reliability and timeliness of delivery, new product and system technology development
capability, excellence and flexibility in operations, degree of global and local presence, effectiveness of
customer service and overall management capability. We believe that we will continue to be able to
compete effectively for our customers’ business because of the high quality of our products and
systems, our product and system technology innovations, our strong global presence, our ongoing cost
reduction efforts, and our financial strength and stability.
Within each of our product segments, we face significant competition. Our principal competitors
include Advics, Bosch, Continental, JTEKT, Nexteer and ZF in the Chassis Systems segment; Autoliv,
Key Safety, and Takata in the Occupant Safety Systems segment; Autoliv, Bosch, Continental, Delphi
and Denso in the Electronics segment; and Delphi, Eaton, ITW, Kostal, Nifco, Raymond, Tokai Rika
and Valeo in the Automotive Components segment.

Joint Ventures
Joint ventures represent an important part of our business, both operationally and strategically. We
have used joint ventures to enter into geographic markets, to gain new customers, strengthen positions
with existing customers, and develop new technologies. However, certain risks exist or are increased in
joint ventures when compared to conducting operations through wholly-owned entities. See Item 1A
‘‘Risk Factors’’ for a description of such risks.
The following table shows our significant unconsolidated joint ventures in which we have a 49% or
greater interest that are accounted for under the equity method:

Private Limited seats

Intellectual Property
We own a significant quantity of intellectual property, including a large number of patents,
trademarks, copyrights and trade secrets, and are involved in numerous licensing arrangements. Our
intellectual property plays an important role in maintaining our competitive position in a number of the
markets that we serve. While no single patent, copyright, trade secret or license, or group of related
patents, copyrights, trade secrets or licenses, is, in our opinion, of such value to us that our business
would be materially affected by the expiration or termination thereof, taken in the aggregate, these
intellectual property rights provide meaningful protection for our products and technical innovations.

8
However, we view the name TRW Automotive and primary mark ‘‘TRW’’ as material to our business as
a whole. We own a number of secondary trade names and trademarks applicable to certain of our
businesses and products that we view as important to such businesses and products as well. Our general
policy is to apply for patents on an ongoing basis to protect our patentable developments.
We have entered into numerous technology license agreements that either strategically capitalize
on our intellectual property rights or provide a conduit for us into third-party intellectual property
rights useful in our businesses. In many of the agreements, we license technology to our suppliers, joint
venture companies and other local manufacturers in support of product production for our customers
and us. In other agreements, we license the technology to other companies to obtain royalty income.

Research, Development and Engineering


We operate a global network of technical centers worldwide where we employ and contract several
thousand engineers, researchers, designers, technicians and their supporting functions. This global
network allows us to develop active and passive automotive safety technologies while improving existing
products and systems. We utilize sophisticated testing and computer simulation equipment and employ
various tools to improve efficiency and reduce cost.
We believe that continued research, development and engineering activities are critical to
maintaining our leadership position in the industry and will provide us with a competitive advantage as
we seek additional business with new and existing customers. Our research and development costs were
approximately $193 million, $164 million, and $155 million for the years ended December 31, 2013,
2012, and 2011, respectively. Total company-funded engineering expenses including research and
development costs were approximately $905 million, $834 million and $827 million for the years ended
December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively. Excluding our modules and aftermarket sales, which
do not directly benefit from such activities, our total company-funded research, development and
engineering expenses were approximately 6.7%, 6.6% and 6.4% of sales for the years ended
December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

Seasonality
Our business is moderately seasonal because our largest North American customers typically halt
operations for approximately two weeks in July and one week in December. Additionally, customers in
Europe historically shut down vehicle production during portions of August and one week in
December. Accordingly, our third and fourth quarter results may reflect these trends.

Backlog
The dollar amount of backlog orders believed to be firm is immaterial to us. While we receive
individual purchase orders from OEMs for products to be supplied for a particular vehicle model or
vehicle platform, we typically produce products in response to our customers’ purchase order releases
under which the volume of production can fluctuate. Further, the purchase orders typically do not
provide for minimum quantities and in many cases can be terminated by our customers. As a result,
our actual sales under each purchase order are dependent on the number of vehicles that our
customers actually produce which use the products we supply as well as the timing of such production.

Supply Base—Manufactured Components and Raw Materials


We purchase various manufactured components and raw materials for use in our manufacturing
processes, including castings, electronic parts, molded plastic parts, finished subcomponents, fabricated
metal, aluminum, steel, resins, textiles, leather and wood. All of these components and raw materials
are available from numerous sources, although certain of them, such as rare earth metals, may be
geographically concentrated. Because we purchase various types of equipment, raw materials and

9
component parts from our suppliers, we may be adversely affected by their failure to perform as
expected or their inability to adequately mitigate inflationary, industry, or economic pressures. Strain on
our supply base may possibly lead to delivery delays, production issues or delivery of non-conforming
products by our suppliers. As such, we continue to monitor our vendor base for the best source of
supply and work with those vendors and customers to attempt to mitigate the impact of the pressures
mentioned above.
Consistent with just-in-time delivery standards generally used in the industry, we normally do not
carry inventories of these items in excess of those reasonably required to meet our production and
shipping schedules. Although we have been able to successfully mitigate the impact of supply shortages
that have arisen in recent years, the possibility of shortages exists, especially in light of the increase in
working capital demands on our suppliers as production levels increase.

Employees
As of December 31, 2013, we had approximately 67,100 full-time employees and approximately
11,100 temporary/contract employees (excluding employees who were on approved forms of leave).
As of December 31, 2012, we had approximately 66,100 full-time employees and approximately
9,100 temporary/contract employees (excluding employees who were on approved forms of leave).

Environmental Matters
Governmental requirements relating to the discharge of materials into the environment, or
otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, have had, and will continue to have, an effect
on our operations and us. We have made, and continue to make, expenditures for projects relating to
the environment, including pollution control devices for new and existing facilities. We are conducting a
number of environmental investigations and remedial actions at current and former locations to comply
with applicable requirements and, along with other companies, have been named a potentially
responsible party for certain waste management sites. Each of these matters is subject to various
uncertainties, and some of these matters may be resolved unfavorably to us. Further information
regarding environmental matters, including the related reserves, is contained in Note 17 to our
consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Report, and is incorporated herein by
reference.
We do not believe that compliance with environmental protection laws and regulations will have a
material effect on our capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position. Our capital expenditures
pertaining to environmental control during each of 2014 and 2015 are not expected to be material to
us.

10
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks described below and other information contained in this Annual
Report on Form 10-K when considering an investment decision with respect to our securities. All material
risks currently known to management are described below. The occurrence of any of the events discussed in
the risk factors below could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition
and/or cash flow, and the impact could be compounded if multiple risks were to occur.

Economic conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and the
viability of our supply base.
Automotive sales and production are highly cyclical and depend on, among other things, general
economic conditions and consumer spending and preferences. Consumer spending and preferences can
be affected by a number of issues, including employment levels, changes in expendable income due to
the pace of wage growth and changes in personal tax rates, fuel costs, real estate values, the availability
of consumer financing and concerns about the economy. As the volume of automotive production
fluctuates, the demand for our products also fluctuates. Production levels in Europe and North
America most notably affect us given our concentration of sales in those regions, which accounted for
41% and 36%, respectively, of our 2013 sales.
Throughout Europe, despite signs of stabilization, consumer demand remains weak. European
vehicle sales and production levels, which declined in 2012, remained at historically low levels in 2013
and excess automotive manufacturing capacity continues to exist. This has negatively impacted our sales
and led to restructuring efforts by us and others in the region. However, high levels of fixed costs and
long lead times in Europe can make it difficult to adjust our cost base to the extent necessary, or to
make such adjustments on a timely basis, impacting our profitability. Restructuring actions beyond
those currently anticipated could also be required. A significant downturn in the automotive industry,
whether in Europe or elsewhere, could also result in impairment of our goodwill or other intangible
assets, which could be material to our consolidated financial statements, given that our goodwill and
other identifiable intangible assets totaled $2,052 million, or approximately 17% of our total assets, as
of December 31, 2013.
Reduced European sales and production levels and any resulting cost-cutting and downsizing
actions implemented by us or others in our industry could also have a negative economic effect on our
supply base. In addition, rapidly changing industry conditions such as volatile production volumes and
other factors can also adversely affect our supply chain. Such impacts on our suppliers could negatively
affect our business through inability to meet our commitments (or inability to meet them without
excess expense) because of our suppliers’ inability to perform.

We are subject to risks associated with our non-U.S. operations that could have an adverse effect on our
business, results of operations and financial condition.
We have significant operations outside the United States, and expanding our operations in certain
emerging markets such as China and Brazil and building our business relationships with Asian
automotive manufacturers are important elements of our growth strategy. Operations outside of the
United States, particularly operations in emerging markets, are subject to various risks which may not
be present or as significant for operations within U.S. markets, and our exposure to these risks
increases as we expand. Government actions in markets subject to governmental control, both in terms
of policy-setting as well as actions directly affecting our operations could negatively affect our results of
operations and cash flows in those areas.
Risks inherent in our international operations include: exposure to local economic conditions, such
as those currently existing in Europe; wage inflation in emerging markets; social plans that prohibit or
increase the cost of certain restructuring actions, particularly in certain European countries; increases in

11
working capital requirements related to long supply chains or regional terms of business; foreign
currency exchange rate fluctuations such as the recent depreciation of the Brazilian real; currency
exchange controls; restrictive governmental actions such as restrictions on transfer or repatriation of
funds; variations in protection of intellectual property and other legal rights; import or export licensing
requirements; the difficulty of enforcing agreements and collecting receivables through certain foreign
legal systems; trade protection matters; restrictions on acquisitions or joint ventures; increased risk of
corruption; changes in laws and regulations, including those of the United States affecting trade and
foreign investment; more expansive legal rights of foreign labor unions; the potential for expropriations
of property; exposure to local public health concerns and the resultant impact on economic and
political conditions; the potential instability of foreign governments and unsettled social and political
conditions in general; and possible terrorist attacks, drug cartel related violence such as in Mexico or
acts of war or hostilities from local populations. Certain regions, including Asia and Latin America, are
more economically and politically volatile and, as a result, our business units that operate in these
regions could be subject to significant fluctuations in sales and operating income. Further, there are
potential tax inefficiencies in repatriating funds from non-U.S. subsidiaries. The likelihood of such
occurrences and their potential effect on the Company vary from country to country and are
unpredictable.
Our non-U.S. operations include joint ventures and other alliances, most significantly in the
Asia-Pacific region. Additional risks characteristic of these arrangements include the risk of conflicts
arising between us and our joint venture partners and the lack of unilateral control of management. We
also risk circumstances where our joint venture partner may fail to satisfy its obligations, which could
result in increased liabilities to us. Further, our ability to repatriate funds may be constrained by the
terms of particular agreements with our joint venture partners.
These and other factors may have an adverse effect on our international operations and, therefore,
on our business, results of operations and financial condition, which may become more pronounced as
we expand further in these areas.

If our current expansion efforts are not successfully implemented, they may adversely impact our business and
results of operations.
We are continuing our current expansion phase, in order to support our future business based
upon new business awards. This expansion, which is our most significant since we became a public
company, involves increased capital expenditures and includes the building or expansion of multiple
plants. Achievement of the benefits of the expansion is dependant in part on our ability to successfully
manage the demands placed on our management resources and engineering and quality teams with
respect to not only the building or modification of the physical plants, but also the simultaneous launch
of a sizable number of new programs. Our ability to manage the various expansion projects
simultaneously may be challenged by factors beyond our control, such as the ability to hire a sufficient
number of qualified personnel, particularly additional engineers to support new technologies, in the
locations required at a cost that does not significantly exceed the cost anticipated when we quoted the
business. Further, due to the long lead time required to support production under awarded future
business from vehicle manufacturers, we must commit substantial resources and incur significant costs
before we receive the benefit of the revenue from that business, which will impact our profitability. If
the production levels for the new business fall short of the levels anticipated or the timing of that
production changes, due to lack of commercial success of one or more particular vehicle models or
otherwise, we may not realize all of the future sales expected for the awarded business, and we may
have difficulty recouping the costs expended in the expansion.

12
Developments related to antitrust investigations by government regulators could have a material adverse effect
on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, as well as our reputation.
We are subject to a variety of laws and regulations that govern our business both in the United
States and internationally, including those relating to competition (antitrust). Antitrust authorities,
including those in the United States and Europe, are investigating possible violations of competition
(antitrust) laws by automotive parts suppliers (referred to herein as the ‘‘Antitrust Investigations’’). The
U.S. Department of Justice (the ‘‘DOJ’’) initiated an investigation into our Occupant Safety Systems
business in June 2011, which was concluded when the court approved a plea agreement between one of
our German subsidiaries and the DOJ. Also in June 2011 the European Commission initiated an
Antitrust Investigation which includes the Company, among others, and which is ongoing. While the
duration and outcome of the European Commission’s investigation is uncertain, a determination that
the Company has violated European competition (antitrust) laws could result in significant penalties
which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash
flows, as well as our reputation. European competition law investigations often continue for several
years and have resulted in the imposition of significant fines by the European Commission, in some
cases, for violations at other companies. At this point, we cannot estimate the ultimate financial impact
resulting from the European investigation. However, developments related to such investigations could
have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, as well
as our reputation.

Continuing pricing pressures from our customers may adversely affect our profitability.
Pricing pressure in the automotive supply industry has been substantial and is likely to continue.
Vehicle manufacturers possess significant leverage over their suppliers, including us, because the
automotive supply industry is highly competitive, serves a limited number of customers, and has a high
fixed cost base. Virtually all vehicle manufacturers seek price reductions in both the initial bidding
process and during the term of the contract. Estimating such amounts is subject to uncertainties
because any price reductions are a result of negotiations with our customers and other factors. Price
reductions have impacted our sales and profit margins in the past. If we are not able to offset price
reductions through improved operating efficiencies and reduced expenditures, those price reductions
may adversely affect our sales and profitability in the future.

We face significant global competition that could adversely affect our sales, profitability and financial
condition.
The global automotive supply industry is highly competitive. We compete with other automotive
suppliers on the basis of technological innovation, quality, delivery, price, program launch support and
overall customer service, among other things. Our competitors include a number of domestic and
international suppliers, some of which have established strong relationships with significant vehicle
manufacturers. Our ability to compete successfully depends, in large part, on our ability to continue to
innovate and manufacture products that have commercial success with consumers, differentiate our
products from those of our competitors, continue to deliver quality products in the time frames
required by our customers, leverage our global footprint and maintain low-cost production. Our
competitors may develop products that are superior to our own, produce products similar to ours at a
lower cost or adapt more quickly than we do to new technologies or evolving customer requirements or
consumer preferences. Furthermore, establishing a strong position in the Chinese market is a key
component of our global growth strategy. While the automotive supply market in China is already
highly competitive, as the size of the Chinese market continues to increase, additional competitors may
seek to enter the Chinese market, and may act aggressively to establish their market share, increasing
the competitiveness further. Competition can lead to price reductions, reduced margins and an inability
to gain or hold market share. If we are unable to compete successfully, our sales, profitability and
financial condition could be adversely affected.

13
A disruption in our information technology (‘‘IT’’) systems could adversely impact our business and
operations.
We rely on the accuracy, capacity and security of our IT systems, some of which are managed or
housed by third parties, and our ability to continually update these systems in response to the changing
needs of our business. We have incurred costs and may incur significant additional costs in order to
implement the security measures that we feel are appropriate to protect our IT systems. However,
despite the security measures we had implemented, unauthorized access to certain of our systems was
detected in November 2012. Although we found no evidence that any data was actually taken and the
functionality of our systems was unaffected, future attacks could result in our systems or data being
breached and/or damaged by computer viruses or unauthorized physical or electronic access. Such a
breach could result in not only business disruption, but also theft of our intellectual property or trade
secrets and/or unauthorized access to controlled data and personal information stored in connection
with our human resources function. Any interruption, outage or breach of our IT systems could
adversely affect our business operations. Further, as we continue to increase our use of centralized
Shared Service Centers for efficiency purposes, the significance of any interruption or breach of the
related IT systems will increase. To the extent that any data is lost or destroyed or any confidential
information is inappropriately disclosed or used, it could adversely affect our competitive position or
customer relationships, harm our business and possibly lead to claims or liability based upon alleged
breaches of contract or applicable laws.

We could be adversely affected by any shortage of supplies causing a production disruption.


We, our customers, or other suppliers may experience supply shortages of, or delays in the supply
of, components or raw materials. This could be caused by a number of factors, including insufficient
production line capacity for a particular product or manpower or working capital constraints or other
factors, including weather emergencies and natural or man-made disasters impacting the accessibility of
raw materials or components, labor or social/political unrest, commercial disputes, public health
concerns or acts of terrorism or other hostilities. Due to the industry’s reliance on ‘‘just-in-time’’
delivery of components during the assembly and manufacture of vehicles, oftentimes only minimal
inventories of supplies are readily available. Further, if an issue arises, many components cannot be
re-sourced quickly or inexpensively to another supplier due to, among other things, long lead times to
full production, the unavailability of other suppliers or demands imposed by alternative suppliers.
Although we consider the production capacities, financial condition and physical locations of suppliers
in our selection process, there is no assurance that the foregoing factors will not result in any shortages
or delays. Further, we and others in our industry have been rationalizing and consolidating our supply
base in order to manage and reduce the cost of purchased goods and services and, due to the
turbulence in the automotive industry, several suppliers have ceased operations. As a result, there is
greater dependence on fewer sources of supply for certain components and materials. Further, many
suppliers downsized significantly during the economic downturn and may face capacity constraints as
the industry recovery progresses or liquidity issues in light of economic pressures. These factors could
increase the possibility of a supply shortage of a particular component or material.
Similarly, if any of our customers experience a material supply shortage, either directly or as a
result of a disruption at another supplier, that customer may halt or limit the purchase of our products.
Such production interruptions could impede a ramp-up in vehicle production and could have a material
adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

14
Our business and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected if we lost any of our largest
customers, lost a significant portion of their business, or if their production levels significantly declined,
particularly with respect to models for which we are a significant supplier.
In general, our financial results are more closely correlated to production by Volkswagen as well as
the Detroit Three (defined as Chrysler Group LLC, Ford Motor Company and General Motors
Company, combined), given our higher sales content with these manufacturers. For the year ended
December 31, 2013, sales to these customers, which represent our four largest customer groups on a
worldwide basis, were approximately 63% of our total sales. Although business with each customer is
typically split among numerous contracts, if we lost a major customer or a major customer significantly
reduced its purchases of our products, there could be a material adverse affect on our business, results
of operations and financial condition.
As a result, our revenue may be disproportionately affected by decreases in the businesses or
market share of any of our largest customers. Further, because our customers typically have no
obligation to purchase a specific quantity of parts, a decline in their production levels on vehicle
platforms where we provide significant content or there is significant volume could have an adverse
effect on our business and financial condition. Their production levels could decline due to the lack of
commercial success of a particular vehicle or platform or a temporary or prolonged sales mix shift
based upon changing consumer preferences, customer incentives, changing customer inventory levels,
production disruptions or other events.
Our ability to reduce the risks inherent in certain concentrations of business and thereby maintain
our financial performance going forward will depend, in part, on our ability to continue to diversify our
sales on a customer, product and geographic basis. While we are pursuing an expansion strategy
focused on the Chinese market, no assurances can be given as to how successful we will be in doing so.
As a result, if any of the factors described above causes any of our largest customers to halt or
significantly reduce purchases of our products, it would harm our results of operations, financial
condition and liquidity.

Strengthening of the U.S. dollar, as well as other foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, could materially
impact our results of operations.
In 2013, approximately 71% of our sales originated outside the United States. We translate sales
and other results denominated in foreign currencies into U.S. dollars for our consolidated financial
statements. This translation is based on average exchange rates during a reporting period. During times
of a strengthening U.S. dollar, our reported international sales and earnings could be reduced because
foreign currencies may translate into fewer U.S. dollars.
Separately, while we generally produce in the same geographic markets as our products are sold,
our sales are more concentrated in U.S. dollars and in euros than our expenses, and therefore our
profit margins and earnings could be reduced due to fluctuations or adverse trends in foreign currency
exchange rates. While we employ financial instruments to hedge certain of these exposures, this does
not insulate us completely from currency fluctuation effects.

We may incur material losses and costs in connection with our contingent liabilities and tax matters.
We are involved in legal and regulatory proceedings that, from time to time, are significant. These
proceedings typically involve claims that arise in the normal course of business, including commercial or
contractual disputes, intellectual property matters, product liability claims including asbestos claims,
environmental issues, tax matters and employment matters. We are also subject to a pending antitrust
investigation in the European Union that is addressed in another risk factor above.

15
In our business we have an inherent risk of product liability and warranty claims. We have been
required to participate in product recalls, and are likely to do so in the future. Vehicle manufacturers
have experienced a higher level of recall campaigns in recent years, and often seek contribution from
their suppliers when faced with product liability, warranty and recall claims. In addition, we have been
subject to continuing efforts by our customers to change contract terms and conditions concerning
warranty and recall participation. Further, as vehicle manufacturers lengthen their warranty
commitments to consumers and the affected vehicles age, warranty claims may increase. Finally, our
costs to defend certain product liability cases have increased due to the bankruptcies of Chrysler LLC
and General Motors Corporation.
Our recorded liabilities and estimates of reasonably possible losses for our contingent liabilities are
based on our assessment of potential liability using the information available to us at the time and, as
applicable, any past experience and trends with respect to similar matters. However, litigation is
inherently uncertain, and such claims could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Adverse changes in the underlying profitability and financial outlook of our operations in many
jurisdictions could lead to changes in our valuation allowances against deferred tax assets. Additionally,
changes in tax laws in the U.S. or in other countries where we have operations could adversely affect
deferred tax assets and liabilities and the overall provision for income taxes. Further, we are subject to
tax audits by governmental authorities in the U.S. and numerous international jurisdictions, which are
inherently uncertain. Negative or unexpected results from one or more such tax audits or changes to
tax laws governing the jurisdictions in which we operate could adversely affect our business, our results
of operations and financial condition.
For further information regarding our contingent liabilities and tax matters, refer to Notes 17 and
8, respectively, of our consolidated financial statements.

If we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights, this could have a material adverse impact on our
business and our competitive position.
We own significant intellectual property, including a large number of patents, trademarks,
copyrights and trade secrets, and are involved in numerous licensing arrangements. Our intellectual
property plays an important role in maintaining our competitive position in a number of the markets
that we serve. Our competitors may develop technologies that are similar or superior to our proprietary
technologies or design around the patents we own or license. Further, as we expand our operations in
jurisdictions where the protection of intellectual property rights is less robust, such as China where we
have built a new research and development facility, the risk of others duplicating our proprietary
technologies increases, despite efforts we undertake to protect them. As we adopt new technologies, we
face an inherent risk of exposure to the claims of others that we have allegedly violated their
intellectual property rights. We have faced legal challenges to our intellectual property rights and will
continue to face such challenges, which we vigorously defend. Although management believes that the
loss or expiration of any single intellectual property right would not have a material effect on our
results of operations or financial position, there can be no assurance that multiple patents and other
intellectual property rights will not be invalidated or circumvented by third parties. As a result,
developments or assertions by or against us relating to intellectual property rights, and any inability to
protect these rights, could materially adversely impact our business and our competitive position.

Commodity inflationary pressures may adversely affect our profitability and the viability of our Tier 2 and
Tier 3 supply base.
Despite the stabilization over the past year in the cost of most of the commodities we use in our
business, we remain susceptible to commodity inflationary pressures. These pressures have in the past,

16
and may again in the future, put significant operational and financial burdens on us and our suppliers,
potentially resulting in declining margins and operating results. It is generally difficult to pass the full
extent of increased prices for manufactured components and raw materials through to our customers
and, even if passed through to some extent, the recovery is typically on a delayed basis. Furthermore,
our suppliers may not be able to handle the commodity cost increases. The unstable condition of some
of our suppliers or their failure to perform has in the past caused us to incur additional costs which
negatively impacted certain of our businesses. If inflationary pressures return, our suppliers may not be
able to perform as we expect, which may have a negative impact on our results of operations and
financial condition.

Governmental regulations increase our costs and could adversely affect our business, reputation and results of
operations.
Our global operations are subject to a variety of federal, state, local and international laws and
regulations which may have a direct or indirect effect on our business. Compliance with the various
laws and regulations increases our cost of doing business and, in some cases, restricts our ability to
conduct business. These regulations are numerous and often inconsistent, and include:
• The Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability and Documentation (or TREAD) Act
with respect to reporting certain claims
• Environmental and occupational health and safety legislation
• Sanctioned country restrictions
• Immigration and international trade, including import and export laws
• Competition (or anti-trust) laws
• Anti-corruption laws such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the U.K. Bribery Act
• Conflict minerals requirements
• U.S. Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act
• Data privacy requirements
• Tax laws
• Accounting requirements
The laws and regulations governing environmental and occupational safety and health, in
particular, are complicated, change frequently and have tended to become stricter over time. We may
not be in complete compliance with such laws and regulations at all times. As an owner and operator,
we could also be responsible under some laws for responding to contamination detected at any of our
operating sites or at third party sites to which our wastes were sent for disposal, regardless of whether
we caused the contamination or the legality of the original activity. Our costs or liabilities relating to
these matters may be more than the amount we have reserved and the difference may be material.
Further, as we sell or close facilities around the world, environmental assessments and investigations
will continue to be performed and additional costs related to remediation, demolition or
decommissioning may result.
Compliance with multiple laws and regulations increases our cost of doing business. Further,
violations of laws and regulations could result in civil and criminal fines, penalties and sanctions against
us, our officers or our employees, as well as prohibitions on the conduct of our business and on our
ability to offer our products in one or more countries, and could also materially affect our reputation,
business and results of operations. Violations of environmental laws could also result in obligations to
investigate or remediate contamination or third party property damage or personal injury claims

17
allegedly due to the migration of contaminants off-site. Although we have implemented policies and
procedures designed to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations, there can be no
assurance that our employees, contractors or agents will not violate our policies or applicable laws and
regulations.

Work stoppages or other labor issues at our facilities or the facilities of our customers or those in our supply
chain could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Due to normal and ordinary labor negotiations or as a result of a specific labor dispute, a work
stoppage may occur in our facilities or those of our customers or other suppliers. Actions taken to
address negative industry trends in recent years, coupled with the industry recovery in North America,
or social/political and economic pressures in Europe may have the effect of exacerbating labor relations
problems which could increase the possibility of such a work stoppage. In addition, labor work
stoppages by other groups on which the supply chain depends, such as port workers or other logistics
groups, could also negatively impact us. If any of our customers experience a material work stoppage,
either directly or as a result of a work stoppage at another supplier, that customer may halt or limit the
purchase of our products. Similarly, a work stoppage at our facilities or one of our own suppliers or
others in the supply/delivery chain could limit or stop our production of or ability to deliver the
affected products. Such interruptions could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of
operations and financial condition.

Our pension and other postretirement benefits obligations are significant and the related expense and funding
requirements of our pension plans could materially increase, reducing our profitability.
We face the continuing burden of significant legacy pension and other postretirement liabilities.
Although we have taken action to limit our future liabilities under certain of our defined benefit
pension plans, including the two largest (our U.S. salaried pension plan and our U.K. pension plan
have both been frozen), and have offered and bought out portions of our pension liabilities, a
significant number of our employees and former employees remain entitled to benefits under defined
benefit pension plans or retirement/termination indemnity plans. The obligations and expense
recognized in our financial statements for these plans is actuarially determined based on certain
assumptions which are driven by market conditions, including interest rates. Additionally, market
conditions impact the underlying value of the assets held by the plans for settlement of these
obligations. Further declines in interest rates or the market values of the securities held by the plans, or
certain other changes, could negatively affect the funded status of these plans and the level and timing
of required contributions in 2015 and beyond. Additionally, these factors could significantly increase
our pension expense and reduce our profitability. See Note 9 of our consolidated financial statements
for more information about these plans.
We also sponsor other postretirement employee benefits (‘‘OPEB’’) primarily in the United States
and Canada. We fund our OPEB costs on a pay-as-you-go basis; accordingly, the related plans have no
assets. We are subject to increased OPEB cash outlays and costs due to increasing health care costs,
among other factors. Increases in the expected costs of health care in excess of current assumptions
could increase our actuarially determined obligations and our related OPEB expense along with future
cash outlays.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


Antitrust Matters
Antitrust authorities, including those in the United States and Europe, are investigating possible
violations of competition (antitrust) laws by automotive parts suppliers (referred to herein as the
‘‘Antitrust Investigations’’). The U.S. Department of Justice (‘‘DOJ’’) initiated an investigation into our
Occupant Safety Systems business in June 2011, which was concluded in 2012 when the court approved
a plea agreement between one of our German subsidiaries and the DOJ. Also in June 2011 the
European Commission initiated an Antitrust Investigation which includes the Company, among others,
and which is ongoing. While the duration and outcome of the European Commission’s investigation is
uncertain, a determination that we have violated European competition (antitrust) laws could result in
significant penalties which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows, as well as our reputation. While we cannot estimate the ultimate financial
impact resulting from the European investigation, we will continue to evaluate developments in this
matter on a regular basis and will record an accrual as and when appropriate.
Our policy is to comply with all laws and regulations, including all antitrust and competition laws.
We are cooperating fully with the competition authorities in the context of their ongoing investigations.
We have been named as a defendant in purported class action lawsuits filed on various dates from
June 2012 through July 2013, which are now pending in the United States District Court for the
Eastern District of Michigan and in various courts in Canada on behalf of vehicle purchasers, lessors
and dealers, alleging that we and certain of our competitors conspired to fix and raise prices for
Occupant Safety Systems products. We intend to defend these cases vigorously. Management believes
that the ultimate resolution of these cases will not have a material adverse effect on our financial
condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Other Contingencies
The information concerning other legal proceedings involving the Company contained in Note 17
of our consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Report is incorporated herein by

Issuer Repurchases of Equity Securities


The Company has two share repurchase programs in place, consisting of a $2 billion program that
extends through December 31, 2016 (the ‘‘$2 Billion Program’’), and a program that is intended to
offset, on an ongoing basis, the dilution created by the Company’s stock incentive plan for up to
1.5 million shares in 2014 and each subsequent year (the ‘‘Anti-Dilution Program’’). The Anti-Dilution
program does not have an expiration date. Both repurchase programs may be modified, suspended or
terminated by the board of directors at any time without prior notice. The Company anticipates
acquiring the shares under both programs from time to time through open market purchases, block
trades, privately negotiated transactions including accelerated share repurchase transactions, other
derivative transactions, or otherwise, at such times and in such amounts as Company management
deems appropriate, given prevailing financial and market conditions. Repurchases may also be made
under trading plans that may be adopted from time to time in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the
Securities Exchange Act, which would permit the Company to repurchase shares when it might
otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws. However, the Company is not
obligated to repurchase any shares under either program.
In 2013, the Company entered into two accelerated share repurchase (‘‘ASR’’) agreements with
third party financial institutions to repurchase its common stock using cash on hand. Pursuant to the
May ASR agreement, the Company paid $125 million and received a total of approximately 1.9 million
shares at an overall weighted-average price per share of $64.98. Pursuant to the September ASR
agreement, the Company paid $125 million and received an initial delivery of approximately 1.4 million
shares in the third quarter and, upon settlement in the fourth quarter, received approximately 276,000
additional shares resulting in overall weighted-average price per share of $73.98.

The following table summarizes information relating to purchases of the Company’s common stock
made by or on behalf of the Company during the fourth quarter of 2013, including purchases made in

(a) Monthly information is presented by reference to the Company’s fiscal months during the fourth
quarter of 2013, based upon settlement of each transaction.
(b) All of the shares indicated were purchased under the Company’s $2 Billion Program originally
announced on October 1, 2012, with a subsequent announcement on October 29, 2013 of the
program’s increased size and extension through December 31, 2016. The share numbers in this
column reflect the shares received upon settlement of the September ASR in the fourth quarter,
for which payment was made and reflected in the third quarter.
(c) Excluding commissions.
(d) The dollar values in this column reflect the approximate dollar value of shares that may yet be
purchased under the $2 Billion Program. In addition, under the Anti-Dilution Program that was
announced on February 16, 2012, up to 1.5 million shares may be purchased in 2014, and
additional shares may be purchased in subsequent years.
In addition, the independent trustee of our 401(k) plans purchases shares in the open market to
fund (i) investments by employees in our common stock, one of the investment options available under
such plans, and (ii) matching contributions in Company stock we provide under certain of such plans.
In addition, our stock incentive plan permits payment of an option exercise price by means of cashless
exercise through a broker and permits the satisfaction of the minimum statutory tax obligations upon
exercise of options through stock withholding. Further, while our stock incentive plan also permits the
satisfaction of the minimum statutory tax obligations upon the vesting of restricted stock units and the
exercise of stock-settled stock appreciation rights through stock withholding, the shares withheld for
such purpose are issued directly to us and are then immediately retired and returned to our authorized
but unissued reserve. The Company does not believe that the foregoing purchases or transactions are
issuer repurchases for the purposes of Item 5 of this Report on Form 10-K.
Our amended and restated credit agreement contains covenants that could restrict, under certain
circumstances, our ability to repurchase shares of our common stock. Certain of the indentures
governing our outstanding notes also limit our ability to repurchase shares.

Dividend Policy
We do not currently pay any cash dividends on our common stock, and instead intend to retain
earnings for capital structure improvements, future operations, expansion and debt maturities. The
amounts available to us to pay cash dividends are restricted by our debt agreements. Our amended and
restated credit agreement contains covenants that could restrict, under certain circumstances, our ability
to pay dividends on our common stock. Certain of the indentures governing our outstanding notes also

22
limit our ability to pay dividends. Any decision to declare and pay dividends in the future will be made
at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on, among other things, our results of
operations, cash requirements, financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors that our
board of directors may deem relevant.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
Our Business
We are among the world’s largest and most diversified suppliers of automotive systems, modules
and components to global automotive original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, and related
aftermarkets. Our operations primarily encompass the design, manufacture and sale of active and
passive safety related products and systems, which often includes the integration of electronics
components and systems. We operate our business along four segments: Chassis Systems, Occupant
Safety Systems, Electronics and Automotive Components.
We are primarily a ‘‘Tier 1’’ supplier, with approximately 83% of our end-customer sales in 2013
made to major OEMs. Of our 2013 sales, approximately 41% were in Europe, 36% were in North
America, 19% were in Asia, and 4% were in the rest of the world.

Financial Results
For the year ended December 31, 2013:
• Our net sales were $17.4 billion, which represents an increase of $1.0 billion from the prior year.
The increase in sales was driven primarily by higher demand for our active and passive safety
products and increased vehicle production in North America and China.
• Operating income was $1,227 million compared to $1,085 million from the prior year. The
increase in operating income of $142 million resulted primarily from the positive impact of the
higher level of sales and lower restructuring charges, a lower net loss related to settlement and
curtailment activity within the U.S. salaried pension plan and certain retiree medical benefits,
partially offset by planned cost increases to support future growth.
• Net earnings attributable to TRW were $970 million compared to $1,008 million from the prior
year. This decrease of $38 million was primarily the result of higher income tax expense, higher
interest expense and an increase in losses recognized on the retirement of debt, partially offset
by higher operating income.
• We generated positive operating cash flow of $1,126 million compared to $956 million from the
prior year, while capital expenditures were $735 million compared to $623 million from the prior
year. The increase in positive operating cash flow of $170 million was primarily due to higher
cash earnings, a reduction in cash outflows for certain other liabilities, lower cash paid for taxes
and pension, and the non-recurrence of employee benefit-related payments, partially offset by
increased working capital requirements and cash paid for restructuring and other severance-
related matters. The increase in capital expenditures was primarily to support our manufacturing
expansion and growth initiatives.
• Our cash on hand at year end was $1,729 million, an increase of $506 million from the prior
year end. During the year, we issued $800 million of senior unsecured notes in private
placements resulting in net proceeds of $789 million. We also utilized $520 million of cash on
hand to repurchase over 7.5 million shares of common stock under our repurchase programs. In
addition, we exercised our option to redeem the remaining $205 million in principal amount of
our 8.875% senior notes at a price of 104.438% of par, and we also utilized $96 million of cash
on hand to optionally repurchase portions of our senior unsecured notes, totaling $91 million in
principal amount.

Recent Trends and Market Conditions
Our business and operating results are directly affected by the relative strength of the global
automotive industry, which tends to be driven by macro-economic factors such as consumer confidence,
fluctuating commodity and fuel prices and regulatory/governmental initiatives. In addition to the items
described in ‘‘Business’’ in Part I, Item 1 of this Report, the primary trends and market conditions
impacting our business in 2013 included:

General Economic Conditions:


Economic conditions in 2013 continued to benefit from monetary easing policies of certain of
the world’s central banks. The improved economic outlook in the U.S. has led policy makers to
begin tapering the Federal Reserve’s asset purchases, which had suppressed long-term interest
rates and spurred economic growth. In North America, automotive suppliers benefitted from
increased production levels resulting from healthy consumer demand and a favorable economic
environment in the U.S. Throughout Europe, the economy continues to stabilize with initial signs
of a potential economic recovery. In China, although the pace of economic growth has moderated,
the automotive industry continues to expand with automotive suppliers benefiting from increased
production levels.
Globally, the economic sentiment remains cautious given the fragile economy in Europe, as
well as the moderating pace of economic growth in China. The global automotive industry remains
susceptible to uncertain economic conditions that could adversely impact consumer demand for
vehicles.

Production Levels:
Vehicle production levels in North America and Asia Pacific continued on a positive trend
during 2013 while production levels in Europe remained unchanged.
In 2013, approximately 41% of our sales originated in Europe. Production levels in 2013
compared to 2012 remained the same in this region. After a significant decline in vehicle
production earlier in the year, signs of stabilization that emerged during the second quarter
continued into the third and fourth quarters. Despite indications the vehicle industry reached
bottom in 2013, we remain cautious for 2014 due to the fragile economic environment in the
region.
In 2013, approximately 36% of our sales originated in North America. Production levels in
this region were 5% higher in 2013 compared to 2012, primarily due to improved consumer
demand.
In 2013, approximately 23% of our sales originated in regions outside of Europe and North
America (primarily China, which comprised approximately 16% of total sales). Despite a general
moderation of economic growth compared to original expectations, increased consumer demand in
China drove an increase of 14% in production levels during 2013 compared to 2012.

Foreign Currencies:
Given the global nature of our operations, we are subject to fluctuations in foreign exchanges
rates. During 2013, we experienced a nominal impact from foreign currency effects on our
reported earnings in U.S. dollars compared to 2012.

27
Antitrust Matters
The U.S. Antitrust Investigation into our Occupant Safety Systems business was concluded in 2012
when the court approved a plea agreement between one of our German subsidiaries and the DOJ.
However, the Antitrust Investigation by the European Commission is ongoing and its duration and
outcome remain uncertain. While we cannot estimate the ultimate financial impact from the European
investigation, we will continue to evaluate developments in this matter on a regular basis and will
record an accrual as and when appropriate.

Changes to Our Debt and Capital Structure in 2013


During 2013, we continued to focus on improving the strength, flexibility, and efficiency of our
capital structure, resulting in outstanding debt of $2.1 billion and a cash balance of $1.7 billion at
December 31, 2013. In February 2013, we issued $400 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.50%
senior unsecured notes due 2021, and in November 2013, we issued $400 million in aggregate principal
amount of 4.45% senior unsecured notes due 2023, in private placements. Net proceeds from the
February and November offerings were approximately $394 million and $395 million, respectively, after
deducting discounts and debt issue costs. In December 2013, we exercised our option to redeem the
remaining $205 million in principal amount outstanding of the 8.875% senior notes due in December
2017 at a price of 104.438% of par. In addition, during 2013 we reduced our debt by repurchasing
$91 million in principal amount of our senior unsecured notes due in 2014 and 2017.
As market conditions warrant, we may, from time to time, repurchase debt securities issued by the
Company or its subsidiaries, in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer,
exchange offer, or otherwise, or we may redeem such debt securities.
The Company has two share repurchase programs in place consisting of the $2 Billion Program
and the Anti-Dilution Program. We are not obligated to repurchase any number of shares or dollar
amount under either program, and the specific timing and amount of repurchases will vary based on
market and business conditions and other factors. For the year ended December 31, 2013, we utilized
$520 million of cash on hand to repurchase approximately 7.5 million shares of common stock.
See ‘‘Issuer repurchases of equity securities’’ in Part II, Item 5, of this Report for further
information regarding the share repurchase programs.
See ‘‘LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES’’ below and Note 11 to our consolidated
financial statements included in Item 8 of this Report for further information.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES


Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements
included under Item 8 of this Report. Certain of our accounting policies require the application of
significant judgment by management in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial
estimates. These policies require the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments that management
makes in the preparation of the financial statements and accompanying notes. We consider an
accounting estimate to be critical if (i) it requires us to make assumptions about matters that were
uncertain at the time we were making the estimate, or (ii) changes in the estimate or different
estimates that we could have selected could have had a material impact on our financial condition or
results of operations. Such critical accounting estimates are discussed below. For these, materially
different amounts could be reported under varied conditions and assumptions. Other items in our
consolidated financial statements require estimation, however, in our judgment, they are not as critical
as those discussed below.

Goodwill and Other Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets. Our goodwill and trademark indefinite-lived
intangible assets are tested for impairment as of October 31 of each year for all of our reporting units,

28
and more frequently if events occur or circumstances change that would warrant such a review. For our
goodwill analysis, fair values are based on the cash flows projected in the reporting units’ strategic
plans and long-range planning forecasts, discounted at a risk-adjusted rate of return. Our long-range
planning forecasts are based on our assessment of revenue growth rates generally based on industry
specific data, external vehicle build assumptions published by widely used external sources, and
customer market share data based on known and targeted awards over a five-year period. The
projected profit margin assumptions included in the plans are based on the current cost structure,
anticipated price givebacks provided to our customers and cost reductions/increases. If different
assumptions were used in these plans, the related cash flows used in measuring fair value could be
different and impairment of goodwill might be required to be recorded.
For our trademark indefinite-lived intangible assets, fair value is determined utilizing the relief
from royalty method, which is based on projected cash flows, discounted at a risk-adjusted rate of
return.
As of December 31, 2013, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets were approximately
$2,024 million, or 17% of our total assets. See Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements included
in Item 8 of this Report for further information on our annual analysis of goodwill and indefinite-lived
intangible assets.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. We evaluate long-lived assets for impairment when events and
circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired and the projected undiscounted cash flows to be
generated by those assets are less than their carrying value. Fair value is determined using projected
discounted cash flows or appraisals.
See Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Report for further
information on our evaluation of long-lived assets for impairment.

Product Recalls. We are at risk for product recall costs. Recall costs are costs incurred when a
customer or we decide to recall a product through a formal campaign, soliciting the return of specific
products due to a known or suspected safety concern. In addition, NHTSA has the authority, under
certain circumstances, to require recalls to remedy safety concerns. Product recall costs typically include
the cost of the product being replaced, customer cost of the recall and labor to remove and replace the
defective part.
Recall costs are recorded based on management estimates developed utilizing actuarially
established loss projections based on historical claims data. Based on this actuarial estimation
methodology, we accrue for expected but unannounced recalls when revenues are recognized upon
shipment of product. In addition, as recalls are announced, we review the actuarial estimation
methodology and make appropriate adjustments to the accrual, if necessary.

Valuation Allowances on Deferred Income Tax Assets. We review the likelihood that we will realize
the benefit of our deferred tax assets and therefore the need for valuation allowances on a quarterly
basis, or more frequently if events indicate that a review is required. In determining the requirement
for a valuation allowance, the historical and projected financial results of the legal entity or
consolidated group recording the net deferred tax asset is considered, along with all other available
positive and negative evidence. The factors considered in our determination of the probability of the
realization of the deferred tax assets include, but are not limited to: recent historical financial results,
historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, the expected timing of the reversals of
existing temporary differences and tax planning strategies. If, based upon the weight of available
evidence, it is more likely than not the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is
recorded.

29
Concluding that a valuation allowance is not required is difficult when there is significant negative
evidence which is objective and verifiable, such as cumulative losses in recent years. We utilize a rolling
twelve quarters of pre-tax income or loss adjusted for significant permanent book to tax differences as
a measure of our cumulative results in recent years. In certain jurisdictions, our analysis indicates that
we have cumulative three year historical losses on this basis. This is considered significant negative
evidence which is objective and verifiable and therefore, difficult to overcome. However, the three year
loss position is not solely determinative and accordingly, we consider all other available positive and
negative evidence in our analysis. Based upon this analysis, we believe it is more likely than not that
the net deferred tax asset in certain foreign jurisdictions may not be realized in the future. Accordingly,
we maintain a valuation allowance related to those net deferred tax assets.

Pensions. We account for our defined benefit pension plans using amounts determined on an
actuarial basis. This determination involves the selection of various assumptions, including expected
rates of return on plan assets and discount rates.
A key assumption in determining our net pension expense is the expected long-term rate of return
on plan assets. The expected return on plan assets is determined by applying the expected long-term
rate of return on assets to a calculated market-related value of plan assets, which recognizes changes in
the fair value of plan assets in a systematic manner over five years. Asset gains and losses will be
amortized over five years in determining the market-related value of assets used to calculate the
expected return component of pension income. We review our long-term rate of return assumptions
annually through comparison of our historical actual rates of return with our expectations, and
consultation with our actuaries and investment advisors regarding their expectations for future returns.
While we believe our assumptions of future returns are reasonable and appropriate, significant
differences in our actual experience or significant changes in our assumptions may materially affect our
pension obligations and our future pension expense. The weighted average expected long-term rate of
return on assets used to determine net periodic benefit cost was 6.44% for 2013 compared to 6.48% for
2012 and 6.72% for 2011.
Another key assumption in determining our net pension expense is the assumed discount rate to
be used to discount plan liabilities. The discount rate reflects the current rate at which the pension
liabilities could be effectively settled. In estimating this rate, we look to rates of return on high quality,
fixed-income investments that receive one of the highest ratings given by a recognized ratings agency,
and that have cash flows similar to those of the underlying benefit obligation. The weighted average
discount rate used to calculate the benefit obligations as of December 31, 2013 was 4.51% compared to
4.16% as of December 31, 2012. The weighted average discount rate used to determine net periodic
benefit cost for 2013 was 4.16% compared to 4.76% for 2012 and 5.49% for 2011.
Based on our assumptions as of December 31, 2013, the measurement date, a change in these
assumptions, holding all other assumptions constant, would have the following effect on our pension
costs and obligations on an annual basis:

The policies we have used (most notably the use of a calculated value of plan assets for pensions
as described above and the use of the minimum corridor approach to amortize gains and losses)

30
generally reduce the volatility of pension expense that would otherwise result from changes in the value
of the pension plan assets and pension liability discount rates. A substantial portion of our pension
benefits relate to our plans in the United States and the United Kingdom.
Our 2014 pension income is estimated to be approximately $3 million in the U.S. and $135 million
in the U.K., while our pension expense is estimated to be approximately $53 million in the rest of the
world (based on December 31, 2013 exchange rates). During 2014, our minimum expected funding is
£30 million, or $50 million, for the U.K. pension plan and $50 million for pension plans in the rest of
the world (based on December 31, 2013 exchange rates). However, we may, at our discretion, make
additional contributions. We do not expect to make any funding contributions to the U.S. plans.
As of December 31, 2013, the U.K. plan is in an overfunded position for U.S. GAAP. The most
recent triennial funding valuation of the U.K. plan, dated March 31, 2012, was filed in February of
2013. This funding valuation, calculated on a U.K. statutory basis, reflected a deficit of £130 million (or
$207 million at that time). We have agreed with the U.K. plan trustee to make £30 million in annual
contributions, which will continue until the earlier of 2023 or until the Plan reaches a funding level of
101% for a sustained period on a U.K. statutory funding basis.
There are a number of fundamental differences in the determination of the funded status pursuant
to U.S. GAAP and the U.K. statutory funding valuation. The U.K. statutory funding valuation employs
statutory funding principles and guidance issued by the U.K. Pensions Regulator (the U.K. regulatory
body ultimately responsible for approving deficit recovery plans) and requires the use of conservative,
or ‘‘prudent,’’ assumptions in determining the Plan’s funded position, whereas U.S. GAAP requires that
‘‘best estimate’’ assumptions be employed. For example, the funding valuation uses a U.K. government
bond yield as the underlying reference discount rate to calculate the present value of the plan
obligations, compared to high quality corporate bond rates which are used in determining obligations
under U.S. GAAP. Other differences between U.K. statutory funding and U.S. GAAP valuation bases
include differing price/pension inflation rates and life expectancy assumptions.

Other Postretirement Benefits. We account for our postemployment benefits other than pensions
(‘‘OPEB’’) using amounts determined on an actuarial basis. This determination involves the selection of
various assumptions, including a discount rate and health care cost trend rates used to value benefit
obligations. The discount rate reflects the current rate at which the OPEB liabilities could be effectively
settled at the end of the year. In estimating this rate, we look to rates of return on high quality, fixed-
income investments that receive one of the highest ratings given by a recognized ratings agency and
that have cash flows similar to those of the underlying benefit obligation. We develop our estimate of
the health care cost trend rates used to value the benefit obligation through review of our recent health
care cost trend experience and through discussions with our actuary regarding the experience of similar
companies. Changes in the assumed discount rate or health care cost trend rate can have a significant
impact on our actuarially determined liability and related OPEB expense.
The following are the significant assumptions used in the measurement of the accumulated
projected benefit obligation (‘‘APBO’’) as of the measurement date for each year:

assumptions, holding all other assumptions constant, would have the following effect on our OPEB
expense and obligation on an annual basis.

Our 2014 OPEB expense is estimated to be approximately $5 million (based on December 31,
2013 exchange rates), which includes the effects of the adoption of certain amendments which modify
future benefits for participants. We fund our OPEB obligation on a pay-as-you-go basis. In 2014, we
expect to contribute approximately $37 million to our OPEB plans.

Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2013 to the Year Ended December 31, 2012
Sales for the year ended December 31, 2013 increased by $991 million, or 6%, compared to the
year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in sales was driven by higher production volume primarily
in North America and Asia Pacific and increased global module sales, together totaling $843 million,
and the favorable impact of foreign currency exchange of $176 million, partially offset by lower sales of
$28 million related to a business divested in the third quarter of 2012.
The change in TRW sales in North America for the year ended December 31, 2013 was consistent
with the vehicle production changes in the region. In Europe, sales were positively impacted by foreign
currency exchange, primarily due to the performance of the euro against the U.S. dollar. Excluding the
impact of foreign currency exchange, sales decreased 1% in Europe, which was only slightly less than
the flat vehicle production level. In the Rest of World, the increase in our sales outpaced the industry
production increase due to a favorable concentration of customers, particularly in China, and increased
demand for our safety products.
Cost of sales increased by $850 million, or 6%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to
the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase was driven primarily by additional costs associated
with higher volume and inflation, together totaling $680 million, and the unfavorable impact of foreign
currency exchange of $170 million.
Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, for the year ended December 31, 2013 was 11.1% compared
to 10.9% for the year ended December 31, 2012. This improvement was driven primarily by additional
cost reductions and the favorable profit impact of additional volume, partially offset by a higher
proportion of lower-margin business.
Gross profit increased by $141 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The
increase in gross profit was driven primarily by the favorable impact of higher sales (net of a higher
proportion of lower margin business) of $191 million, the favorable impact of foreign currency
exchange of $6 million, and the elimination of a loss from a business divested in the third quarter of
2012 of $5 million. Partially offsetting these favorable items was the unfavorable impact of
non-commodity inflation, salary and other items of $61 million.
Administrative and selling expenses, as a percentage of sales, were 3.6% for the year ended
December 31, 2013 compared to 3.9% for the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease of
$10 million was primarily driven by a lower net loss of $21 million in 2013 compared to 2012 related to
settlement and curtailment activity within the U.S. salaried pension plan and for certain retiree medical
benefits, and cost reductions in excess of non-commodity inflation, salary and other items of $6 million.

34
These decreases were partially offset by the unfavorable impact of increased share-based compensation
expense of $12 million and unfavorable foreign currency exchange of $5 million.
Restructuring charges and asset impairments decreased by $29 million for the year ended
December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. This was driven by overall lower
severance and other charges of $35 million, primarily related to our overall restructuring efforts in
Europe, partially offset by an increase in asset impairments of $5 million.
Other income—net decreased by $36 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to
the year ended December 31, 2012. This decrease was due to an unfavorable increase in foreign
currency exchange losses of $15 million, a decrease in other miscellaneous income of $7 million and in
net gains on sales of assets of $6 million, an increase in the provision for bad debts of $5 million and
an unfavorable change in the marking to market of forward electricity purchase contracts of $4 million.
Interest expense—net increased by $21 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to
the year ended December 31, 2012, primarily as the result of increased debt levels, including the
issuances of the 4.5% and 4.45% Senior Notes, and reduced interest income.
Loss on retirement of debt was $20 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to
$6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. During 2013, we exercised our option to redeem
$205 million in principal amount outstanding of our 8.875% notes due in December 2017 at a price of
104.438% of par and recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $12 million, which included the
redemption premium and write-off of related debt issue costs and discounts. In addition, we
repurchased portions of our senior unsecured notes due in 2014 and 2017 totaling $91 million in
principal amount and recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $5 million, which included the write-off
of a portion of related debt issue costs. Exchangeable senior note holders exchanged approximately
$26 million in principal amount of notes for approximately 880,000 shares of Company stock. In
conjunction with the exchange, we recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $3 million, which included
the write-off of a portion of related debt issue costs and debt discount.
During 2012, we repurchased portions of our senior unsecured notes totaling $48 million in
principal amount and recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $5 million which included the write-off
of a portion of related debt issue costs. In addition, we entered into the Eighth Credit Agreement and
recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $1 million related to the write-off of a portion of debt
issuance costs associated with the prior credit agreement.
Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $114 million on pre-tax earnings of
$1,121 million compared to income tax benefit of $33 million on pre-tax earnings of $1,008 million for
the year ended December 31, 2012. Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2013 includes
a tax benefit of approximately $153 million related to our ability to utilize historical foreign tax credits
in future periods and the corresponding recognition of a deferred tax asset. Income tax expense for the
period ended December 31, 2013 also includes a tax benefit of approximately $43 million relating to
the enactment of various tax legislation during the year and a net tax expense of $17 million resulting
from net losses in certain foreign jurisdictions with no corresponding tax benefit due to increases in our
valuation allowances. Income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2012 includes a tax benefit
of approximately $255 million related to various tax planning and legal entity restructuring actions.
Income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2012 also includes a net benefit of $63 million
related to reductions in our global valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets. The income tax rate
for both periods varies from the United States statutory income tax rate due primarily to the items
noted above as well as favorable foreign tax rates, holidays, and credits.

35
Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2012 to the Year Ended December 31, 2011
Sales for the year ended December 31, 2012 increased by $200 million, or 1%, compared to the
year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in sales was driven by higher production volume primarily
in North America and Asia Pacific (net of lower volume in Europe) and increased global module sales,
together totaling $938 million, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange
of $738 million.
The increase in our sales in North America for the year ended December 31, 2012 was slightly
lower than the regional increase in vehicle production. However, the increase in our sales to our
primary customers, the Detroit Three, outpaced the 7% increase in their production due to increased
demand for our safety products. In Europe, in addition to lower vehicle production levels, sales were
negatively impacted by foreign currency exchange, primarily due to the performance of the euro against
the U.S. dollar. Excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange, sales decreased 6% in Europe,
which was generally in line with the decline in production. In the Rest of World, the increase in our
sales outpaced the industry production increase due to a favorable concentration of customers,
particularly in China, and increased demand for our safety products. Foreign currency exchange,
primarily due to the performance of the Brazilian real and Chinese renminbi, negatively impacted our
sales in the Rest of World as well. Excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange, sales increased
17% in the Rest of World.
Cost of sales increased by $271 million, or 2%, for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to
the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase was driven primarily by additional costs associated
with higher volume and inflation, together totaling $927 million, partially offset by the favorable impact
of foreign currency exchange of $656 million.
Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, for the year ended December 31, 2012 was 10.9% compared
to 11.5% for the year ended December 31, 2011. This contraction was driven primarily by the increased
proportion of lower-margin modules business, costs to support growth plans (such as increased
research, development, engineering and labor) and the unfavorable impact of foreign currency
exchange.
Gross profit decreased by $71 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The
decrease in gross profit was driven primarily by the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange of
$82 million, increased costs to support growth plans (such as research, development, engineering and
other salary costs) of $60 million, the non-recurrence of a prior year favorable resolution of a
commercial matter of $19 million and lower margin related to businesses divested in the third quarter
of 2012 and fourth quarter of 2011 of $8 million. Partially offsetting these unfavorable items was the
favorable impact of higher sales (net of a higher proportion of lower margin business) of $98 million.
Administrative and selling expenses, as a percentage of sales, were 3.9% for the year ended
December 31, 2012 compared to 3.8% for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase of
$21 million was primarily driven by a net loss of $52 million related to settlement and curtailment
activity within the U.S. salaried pension plan and for certain retiree medical benefits, as well as
increased wages and benefits of $21 million, partially offset by lower costs incurred related to the
antitrust matters of $17 million, the non-recurrence of a $10 million expense recognized related to the
termination of the transaction and monitoring fee agreement with an affiliate of The Blackstone
Group L.P., and the favorable impact of foreign currency exchange of $25 million.
Restructuring charges and asset impairments increased by $68 million for the year ended
December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. This was driven by higher
severance and other charges of $71 million, primarily related to our restructuring efforts in Europe,
partially offset by a decrease in asset impairments of $3 million.

36
Other income—net decreased by $18 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to
the year ended December 31, 2011. This decrease was due to lower gains on sales of assets and
divestitures of $9 million, lower royalty and grant income of $8 million, the non-recurrence of a prior
year $6 million reversal of litigation charges related to the favorable resolution of certain legacy
pension matters, a fine of $5 million recorded for antitrust matters, and lower other miscellaneous
income and the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange, together totaling $5 million. These
decreases were partially offset by an improvement in the provision for bad debts of $15 million.
Interest expense—net decreased by $7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to
the year ended December 31, 2011, primarily as the result of lower overall debt levels, partially offset
by reduced interest income.
Loss on retirement of debt was $6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to
$40 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. During 2012, we repurchased portions of our senior
unsecured notes totaling $48 million in principal amount and recorded a loss on retirement of debt of
$5 million which included the write-off of a portion of related debt issue costs. In addition, we entered
into the Eighth Credit Agreement and recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $1 million related to
the write-off of a portion of debt issuance costs associated with the prior credit agreement.
During 2011, we repurchased portions of our senior notes and senior exchangeable notes totaling
approximately $256 million and $85 million, respectively, in principal amount and recorded a loss on
retirement of debt of $24 million and $13 million, respectively, which included the write-off of a
portion of debt issue costs. Also during 2011, in conjunction with the termination of the 2012
commitments under the prior credit agreement, we recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $3 million
related to the write-off of a portion of debt issuance costs.
Income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $33 million on pre-tax earnings of
$1,008 million compared to income tax benefit of $47 million on pre-tax earnings of $1,148 million for
the year ended December 31, 2011. Income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2012 includes
a tax benefit of approximately $255 million related to various tax planning and restructuring actions.
This tax benefit is related to our ability to utilize U.S. foreign tax credits that will be realized in the
future as a result of our improved performance in the U.S. and favorable foreign rate variances
resulting from certain fourth quarter legal entity restructuring. Income tax benefit for the year ended
December 31, 2012 also includes a net benefit of $63 million which is comprised of two items: 1) a net
expense of $37 million resulting from net losses in certain foreign jurisdictions with no corresponding
tax benefit due to increases in our valuation allowances, and 2) a net tax benefit of $100 million
resulting from changes in determinations relating to the potential realization of deferred tax assets and
the resulting reversal of a valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets in Canada and certain other
foreign subsidiaries. Income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2011 includes a net tax
benefit of $326 million related to reductions in our global valuation allowance against net deferred tax
assets (primarily related to our U.S. operations) and a net benefit of approximately $50 million related
to the favorable resolution of various tax matters in foreign jurisdictions and other tax matters. The
income tax rate for both periods varies from the United States statutory income tax rate due primarily
to the items noted above as well as favorable foreign tax rates, holidays, and credits.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


On an annual basis, our primary source of liquidity is cash flows generated from operations. At
various points during the course of a given year, we may be in an operating cash usage position, which
is not unusual given the seasonality of our business. We also have available liquidity under our
Revolving Credit Facility and the other credit facilities described below, subject to certain conditions.
We continuously monitor our working capital position and associated cash requirements and explore
opportunities to more effectively manage our inventory and capital spending. Working capital is highly
influenced by the timing of cash flows associated with sales and purchases, and therefore can be
difficult to manage at times. Further, with our growth in emerging markets and the move by OEMs to
more global platforms, our working capital may increase accordingly. Although we have historically
been successful in managing the timing of our cash flows, future success will depend on the financial
position of our customers and suppliers, and on industry conditions.

41
We believe that funds generated from operations, cash on hand and available borrowing capacity
will be adequate to fund our liquidity requirements. These requirements, which are significant,
generally consist of working capital requirements, company-sponsored research and development
programs, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, cash taxes, and contributions for pensions
and postretirement benefits other than pensions. In addition, we have been using available funds to
reduce debt and to repurchase shares of our common stock under board-approved share repurchase
programs. Our current financing plans are intended to provide flexibility in worldwide financing
activities and permit us to respond to changing conditions in credit markets. However, our ability to
continue to fund these items, to repurchase shares of common stock and to reduce debt may be
affected by general economic, industry specific, financial market, competitive, legislative and regulatory
factors, including factors relating to the ongoing Antitrust Investigations.
As of December 31, 2013, the amount of cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries
was $1.1 billion. If these funds were needed for our operations in the U.S., we would be required to
provide for U.S. federal and state income tax, foreign income tax, and foreign withholding taxes on the
funds repatriated. A significant portion of this cash and cash equivalents is not deemed to be
permanently reinvested. As such, we have already provided for these taxes on this portion. However,
for the entities that hold the remainder of such cash and cash equivalents, we have not provided for
such taxes as it is our intention that those funds are permanently reinvested outside the U.S. and our
current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate them to fund our U.S. operations.

Cash Flows
Operating Activities. Cash provided by operating activities was $1,126 million, $956 million and
$1,120 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
The increase in cash provided by operations for 2013 compared to 2012 was primarily the result of
higher cash earnings, a reduction in cash outflows for other liabilities primarily relating to customer
pricing, warranty and recall matters of $120 million, lower cash paid for taxes and pension of
$40 million and $17 million, respectively, as well as the non-recurrence of employee benefit-related
payments of $40 million, which included the payout for certain cash incentive and retention awards for
executive officers and vice presidents that vested and were paid in 2012. These favorable variances in
operating cash flows were partially offset by increased working capital requirements of $180 million and
higher outflows for restructuring and other severance-related payments of $69 million.
The decrease in cash provided by operations for 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily the result of
lower cash earnings, higher levels of cash payments for taxes of $77 million, employee benefit-related
payments of $40 million, which included the payout for certain cash incentive and retention awards for
executive officers and vice presidents that vested during the period, and higher levels of net cash
payments for value-added taxes of $14 million due to the timing of cash flows associated with payments
and collections. These unfavorable changes in operating cash flows were partially offset by
improvements in working capital of $61 million, a reduction in restructuring and other severance-
related payments of $22 million, and lower outflows for other liabilities. During 2012, we made
discretionary pension contributions of $20 million.
Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities was $734 million, $608 million and
$509 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Capital expenditures were $735 million, $623 million and $571 million for the years ended
December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These capital expenditures were primarily related to
investing in new facilities, upgrading existing products, continuing new product launches, and
infrastructure and equipment at our facilities to support our manufacturing and cost reduction efforts.
In 2012 and 2011, a significant portion of our capital expenditures were made to support our strategic
growth in China and Brazil. As we continue with our expansion plans, we expect to spend between
$730 million and $750 million on capital expenditures during 2014, depending on timing of
expenditures, as we continue to invest in our strategic priorities and growth.

42
Financing Activities. Cash provided by financing activities was $110 million for the year ended
December 31, 2013. Cash used in financing activities was $385 million and $405 million for the years
ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
During 2013, we received $394 million and $395 million of proceeds, net of fees, from the issuance
of $400 million and $400 million in principal amount of 4.50% senior unsecured notes and 4.45%
senior unsecured notes, respectively. Further, we also received $90 million of proceeds under various
borrowing arrangements.
During 2013 and 2012, we used $520 million and $268 million, respectively, to repurchase
7.5 million and 5.6 million shares, respectively, of our common stock.
During 2013, 2012 and 2011, we utilized $309 million, $53 million and $426 million, respectively, of
cash on hand to optionally repurchase portions of our senior unsecured notes totaling $296 million,
$48 million and $341 million, respectively, in principal amount, while also utilizing $31 million,
$33 million and $29 million, respectively, of cash on hand to redeem other long-term debt. In addition,
certain of our subsidiaries paid dividends of $31 million, $46 million and $12 million, respectively, to
noncontrolling stockholders during 2013, 2012 and 2011. Also during these periods, we received
$30 million, $21 million and $20 million, respectively, of net proceeds from the exercise of stock
options.

Other Sources of Liquidity


The Eighth Credit Agreement provides for senior credit facilities consisting of (i) a revolving credit
facility in the amount of $1.4 billion which matures in September 2017, subject to certain conditions
(the ‘‘Revolving Credit Facility’’), and (ii) additional availability which may be used in the future for
one or more term loans or additional revolving facilities (together with the Revolving Credit Facility,
the ‘‘Facilities’’).
We may draw down on, and use proceeds from, our Revolving Credit Facility to fund normal
working capital needs from month to month in conjunction with available cash on hand. As of
December 31, 2013, we had no outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, resulting in
approximately $1.4 billion of availability. See ‘‘—Senior Credit Facilities’’ in Note 11 to our
consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Report for a description of these facilities.
As of December 31, 2013, our subsidiaries in the Asia Pacific region also had various uncommitted
credit facilities, of which $147 million was unutilized. We expect that these additional facilities will be
drawn from time to time for normal working capital purposes and to fund capital expenditures in
support of planned expansion in Asia Pacific.
Under normal working capital utilization of liquidity, portions of the amounts drawn under our
liquidity facilities typically are paid back throughout the month as cash from customers is received. We
could then draw upon such facilities again for working capital purposes in the same or succeeding
months.

Other Capital Transactions Impacting Liquidity


Share Repurchase Programs. During 2013, we repurchased 1.5 million shares of our common stock
under the Anti-Dilution Program using $95 million. We also repurchased 6.0 million shares of our
common stock under the $2 Billion Program using $425 million. During 2014, we expect to spend
approximately $500 million to repurchase shares of our common stock. See Item 5 and Note 14 to our
consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Report for further information.

Senior Note Redemption and Debt Repurchases. During 2013, we exercised our option to redeem
$205 million in principal amount of our 8.875% notes due in December 2017 at 104.438% of par and

43
recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $12 million, which included the redemption premium and
write-off of related debt issue costs and discounts. In addition, we repurchased portions of our senior
notes due in 2014 and 2017 totaling $91 million in principal amount and recorded a loss on retirement
of debt of $5 million which included the write-off of a portion of related debt issue costs. The
redemption of the 8.875% notes and the senior note repurchases were funded from cash on hand. See
Note 11 to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Report for further
information.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments


The following table reflects our significant contractual obligations as of December 31, 2013:

Less Than One to Three to More Than


One Year Three Years Five Years Five Years Total
(Dollars in millions)
Short-term borrowings . . . . . .............. $159 $ — $ — $ — $ 159
Long-term debt obligations . . .............. 480 220(b) 447 804 1,951
Capital lease obligations . . . . .............. 2 4 6 6 18
Operating lease obligations . . .............. 67 84 69 55 275

Total . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $811 $461 $613 $999 $2,884

(a) Long term debt includes both fixed rate and variable rate obligations. As of December 31, 2013,
approximately 8% of our total debt was at variable interest rates. The projected interest payment
obligations are based upon (1) fixed rates where appropriate and (2) projected London Interbank
Borrowing Rates (‘‘LIBOR’’) obtained from third parties plus applicable margins as of the current
balance sheet date for variable rate obligations. The projected interest payment obligations are also
based upon debt outstanding at the balance sheet date and assume retirement at scheduled
maturity dates.
(b) Upon issuance of our exchangeable notes a debt discount was recognized as a decrease in debt
and an increase in equity. Accordingly, the fair value and carrying value of long-term fixed rate
debt is net of the unamortized discount of $14 million as of December 31, 2013. The debt discount
does not affect the actual amount we are required to repay, therefore it is excluded in the
contractual obligation table but is reflected in the carrying value disclosed in Note 11 of this
Report.
As of December 31, 2013, we have unrecognized tax benefits of $176 million. However, due to a
high degree of uncertainty regarding the timing of such future cash outflows, reasonable estimates
cannot be made regarding the period of cash settlement with the applicable taxing authority.
In addition to the obligations discussed above, we sponsor defined benefit pension plans that cover
a significant portion of our U.S. employees and certain non-U.S. employees. Our pension plans in the
U.S. are funded in conformity with the minimum funding requirements of the Pension Protection Act
of 2006. Additionally, we periodically make discretionary contributions to the plans in support of risk
management initiatives. Funding for our pension plans in other countries is based upon actuarial
recommendations or statutory requirements. In 2014, our expected funding is £30 million, or
$50 million for the U.K. plan and $50 million for pension plans in the rest of the world, however, we
may, at our discretion, make additional contributions. We do not expect to make any funding
contributions to the U.S. plans.
We sponsor OPEB plans that cover a substantial number of our U.S. and certain non-U.S. retirees
and provide benefits to certain eligible employees and dependents upon retirement. We are subject to

44
increased OPEB cash costs due to, among other factors, rising health care costs. We fund our OPEB
obligations on a pay-as-you-go basis. In 2014, we expect to contribute approximately $37 million to our
OPEB plans.
We also have liabilities recorded for various environmental matters. As of December 31, 2013, we
had reserves for environmental matters of $68 million. We expect to pay approximately $20 million in
2014 in relation to these matters.
In addition to the contractual obligations and commitments noted above, we have contingent
obligations in the form of severance and bonus payments for our executive officers. We have no
unconditional purchase obligations other than those related to inventory, services, tooling and property,
plant and equipment in the ordinary course of business.

Other Commitments. Continuing pressure from customers to reduce prices is characteristic of the
automotive parts industry. Historically, we have taken steps to reduce costs and minimize and/or resist
price reductions; however, to the extent we are unsuccessful at resisting price reductions, or are not
able to offset price reductions through improved operating efficiencies and reduced expenditures, such
price reductions may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations
and cash flows.
In addition to pricing concerns, customers continue to seek changes in terms and conditions in our
contracts concerning warranty and recall participation and payment terms on product shipped. We
believe that the likely resolution of these proposed modifications will not have a material adverse effect
on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


We do not have material off-balance sheet arrangements. We do not have guarantees related to
unconsolidated entities, which have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material current or future effect
on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

CONTINGENCIES
The information concerning the ongoing Antitrust Matters contained in Item 3 ‘‘Legal
Proceedings’’ of this Report and the information concerning other contingencies, including
environmental contingencies and the amount currently held in reserve for environmental matters,
contained in Note 17 to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Report, is
incorporated herein by reference. The additional information concerning environmental matters
included in Item 1 ‘‘Business—Environmental Matters’’ of this Report is also incorporated herein by
reference.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS


See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Report for a
discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements.

OUTLOOK
We expect full year 2014 sales to be in the range of $17.3 billion to $17.6 billion, including first
quarter sales of approximately $4.3 billion. These sales figures are based on expected 2014 production
levels of 16.8 million units in North America, 19.5 million units in Europe, the exit of certain North
American brake component and assembly operations, continued expansion in vehicle production
volumes in China, and our expectations for foreign currency exchange rates. We expect our full year
2014 effective tax rate to be approximately 28% to 30%.

45
In general, we expect global production levels to increase slightly in 2014 compared to 2013. In
North America, the industry recovery continues in a positive direction with expected production levels
in 2014 to be comparable to 2013. Production levels for the Detroit Three (defined as Chrysler
Group LLC, Ford Motor Company, and General Motors Company, combined), are expected to lag
behind the production levels for the region. In general, our financial results are more closely correlated
to the production by the Detroit Three given our higher sales content to these manufacturers compared
to the Japanese manufacturers. In Europe, we expect continued stabilization of the economy with initial
signs of an economic recovery signaling slight growth in production levels. At the same time, growth in
Asia Pacific is expected to continue at a moderate pace in 2014. Considering the expected long-term
growth within this region, we continue to invest appropriate levels of capital, engineering and
infrastructure to underpin our expansion and position us to benefit from these growth opportunities.
We continue to evaluate our global footprint to ensure that we are properly configured and sized
based on changing market conditions and the production plans of our customers. We will continue to
assess our cost base primarily in Europe, and in 2014 we intend to continue our restructuring efforts,
including plant rationalizations, targeted workforce reductions and adjustments to certain of our fixed
costs, to align our operations with the existing environment in those regions. As a result, we expect to
incur restructuring charges of approximately $50 million in 2014. We believe these efforts are necessary
actions in order to preserve our competitiveness and will provide lasting benefit over the long term.
As previously disclosed, on September 13, 2013, we issued a notice to effect a ‘‘termination’’ of a
supply agreement (the ‘‘Agreement’’) entered into with a major customer pertaining to certain of our
North American brake component and assembly operations, which are included within our Chassis
Systems segment. That notice triggered a 90-day consultation period, which has lapsed without the
parties reaching an agreement for continued supply. We have received notice from our customer that it
intends to cease purchasing the applicable component parts from us during the first quarter of 2014 as
it transitions the business to other sources. Based on this notice, restructuring charges of $1 million
were recorded in December 2013. Further, under the Agreement, the customer has the right to
purchase machinery and equipment of the operations. If the customer does not exercise this right, asset
impairment charges of up to $13 million could be incurred. In 2013, the operations under the
Agreement had revenues and a net earnings before tax margin of approximately $670 million and 6.4%,
respectively.
While we expect net commodity inflation to be immaterial in 2014, we will continue to monitor
commodity costs and work with our suppliers and customers to manage changes in such costs as
required.
We continue to monitor the Tier 2 and Tier 3 supply base and its ability to perform as expected as
it faces additional financial and operational challenges in the current environment due to variable
production levels and overall economic concerns. The inability of any major supplier to meet its
commitments could negatively impact us either directly or by negatively affecting our customers. We
pursue alternate sources of supply where necessary and practicable.
The Antitrust Investigation by the European Commission is ongoing. While we cannot estimate the
ultimate financial impact of the European investigation at this time, we will continue to evaluate
developments in this matter on a regular basis and will record an accrual as and when appropriate.
Despite the various challenges that the automotive industry faces, we are confident that we will
manage through them successfully. We believe that our growth prospects, strong balance sheet, ability
to generate cash and our broad array of innovative products provide a firm foundation for continued
profitability.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Report includes ‘‘forward-looking statements,’’ as that term is defined by the federal securities
laws. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning our plans, intentions, objectives, goals,
strategies, forecasts, future events, future revenue or performance, capital expenditures, financing
needs, business trends and other information that is not historical information. When used in this
Report, the words ‘‘estimates,’’ ‘‘expects,’’ ‘‘anticipates,’’ ‘‘projects,’’ ‘‘plans,’’ ‘‘intends,’’ ‘‘believes,’’
‘‘forecasts,’’ and future or conditional verbs, such as ‘‘will,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘could’’ or ‘‘may,’’ as well as
variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements,
although not all forward-looking statements are so designated. All forward-looking statements,
including, without limitation, management’s examination of historical operating trends and data, are
based upon our current expectations and various assumptions, and apply only as of the date of this
Report. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a
reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs
and projections will be achieved.
There are a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause our actual
results to differ materially from those suggested by our forward-looking statements, including those set
forth in Item 1A ‘‘Risk Factors’’ in this Report, in ‘‘—Executive Overview’’ above, and in our other
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All forward-looking statements are expressly
qualified in their entirety by such cautionary statements. We undertake no obligation to update or
revise forward-looking statements which have been made to reflect events or circumstances that arise
after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS


Our primary market risks arise from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates
and commodity prices. We manage foreign currency exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and, to a
lesser extent, commodity price risk by utilizing various derivative instruments. We limit the use of such
instruments to hedging activities; we do not use such instruments for speculative or trading purposes. If
we did not use derivative instruments, our exposure to such risks would be higher. We are exposed to
credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the derivative financial instruments.
We attempt to manage this exposure by entering into agreements directly with a number of major
financial institutions that meet our credit standards and that are expected to fully satisfy their
obligations under the contracts. However, given historical disruptions in the financial markets, including
the bankruptcy, insolvency or restructuring of certain financial institutions, there is no guarantee that
the financial institutions with whom we contract will be able to fully satisfy their contractual obligations.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk. We enter into forward contracts and, to a lesser extent,
options to hedge portions of our foreign currency denominated forecasted revenues, purchases and the
subsequent cash flow from adverse movements in exchange rates. Foreign currency exposures are
reviewed monthly and any natural offsets are considered prior to entering into a derivative financial
instrument. As of December 31, 2013, approximately 23% of our total debt was in foreign currencies,
compared to 22% as of December 31, 2012.

Interest Rate Risk. We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with variable-rate debt. In
order to manage interest costs, we may occasionally utilize interest rate swap agreements to exchange
fixed- and variable-rate interest payment obligations over the life of the agreements. As of
December 31, 2013 and 2012, approximately 8% and 5%, respectively, of our total debt was at variable
interest rates.

Commodity Price Risk. From time to time, we may utilize derivative financial instruments to
manage select commodity price risks. Forward purchase agreements generally meet the criteria to be

47
accounted for as normal purchases. Forward purchase agreements which do not or no longer meet
these criteria are classified and accounted for as derivatives.

Sensitivity Analysis. We utilize a sensitivity analysis model to calculate the fair value, cash flows or
statement of earnings impact that a hypothetical 10% change in market rates would have on our debt
and derivative instruments. For derivative instruments, we utilized applicable forward rates in effect as
of December 31, 2013 to calculate the fair value or cash flow impact resulting from this hypothetical
change in market rates. The analyses also do not factor in a potential change in the level of variable
rate borrowings or derivative instruments outstanding that could take place if these hypothetical
conditions prevailed. The results of the sensitivity model calculations follow:

TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Description of Business
TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. (together with its subsidiaries, referred to herein as the
‘‘Company’’) is among the world’s largest and most diversified suppliers of automotive systems, modules
and components to global automotive original equipment manufacturers (‘‘OEMs’’) and related
aftermarkets. The Company conducts substantially all of its operations through subsidiaries. These
operations primarily encompass the design, manufacture and sale of active and passive safety related
products and systems. Active safety related products and systems principally refer to vehicle dynamic
controls (primarily braking and steering), and passive safety related products and systems principally
refer to occupant restraints (primarily airbags and seat belts) and safety electronics (primarily electronic
control units and crash and occupant weight sensors). The Company is primarily a ‘‘Tier 1’’ supplier (a
supplier that sells to OEMs). In 2013, approximately 83% of the Company’s end-customer sales were to
major OEMs.

2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with United States generally
accepted accounting principles (‘‘GAAP’’).

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements reflect the financial position and
operating results of the Company, including wholly owned subsidiaries and investees that the Company
controls. Investments in entities that the Company does not control, but has the ability to exercise
significant influence over operating and financial policies, are accounted for under the equity method.
Investments in entities in which the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence
are accounted for under the cost method. Noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries in the
consolidated balance sheets represent minority stockholders’ proportionate share of the equity in such
subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and
expenses in the consolidated statements of earnings. 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.

Foreign Currency. The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars at
end-of-period exchange rates for assets and liabilities and at an average exchange rate for each period
for revenues and expenses. Translation adjustments for those subsidiaries whose local currency is their
functional currency are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive earnings (losses)
in stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses arising from fluctuations in foreign currency
exchange rates on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are
recognized in earnings as incurred, except for those transactions which hedge purchase commitments
and for those intercompany balances which are designated as being of a long-term investment nature.

2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)


Revenue Recognition. Sales are recognized when there is persuasive evidence of a sales agreement,
the delivery of goods has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection of related
billings is reasonably assured. Sales are recorded upon shipment of product to customers and transfer
of title and risk of loss under standard commercial terms (typically F.O.B. shipping point). In those
limited instances where other terms are negotiated and agreed, revenue is recorded when title and risk
of loss are transferred to the customer.

Earnings per Share. Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net earnings by the
weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the weighted
average impact of all potentially dilutive securities from the date of issuance, including stock options,
restricted stock units (‘‘RSUs’’) and stock-settled stock appreciation rights (‘‘SSARs’’). Further, if the
inclusion of shares potentially issuable for the Company’s 3.50% exchangeable senior unsecured notes
(see Note 11) is more dilutive than the inclusion of the interest expense for those exchangeable notes,
the Company utilizes the ‘‘if-converted’’ method to calculate diluted earnings per share. Under the
if-converted method, the Company adjusts net earnings to add back interest expense and amortization
of the discount recognized on the exchangeable notes and includes the number of shares potentially
issuable related to the exchangeable notes in the weighted average shares outstanding.
If the average market price of the Company’s common stock exceeds the exercise price of stock
options outstanding or the fair value on the date of grant of the SSARs, the treasury stock method is
used to determine the incremental number of shares to be included in the diluted earnings per share
computation.
Net earnings attributable to TRW and the weighted average shares outstanding used in calculating
basic and diluted earnings per share were:

For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the number of securities excluded from
the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the inclusion of such securities in the calculation
would have been anti-dilutive was approximately 0.8 million, 2.1 million, and 1.0 million, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with
remaining maturity dates of three months or less at time of purchase.

Accounts Receivable. Receivables are stated at amounts estimated by management to be the net
realizable value. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded when it is probable amounts will not
be collected based on specific identification of customer circumstances or age of the receivable. The
allowance for doubtful accounts was $29 million and $30 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012,
respectively. Accounts receivable are written off when it becomes apparent such amounts will not be
collected. Collateral is not typically required, nor is interest charged on accounts receivable balances.

Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined by the
first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Cost includes the cost of materials, direct labor, in-bound freight and
the applicable share of manufacturing overhead.

Property, Plant and Equipment. Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation. Generally, estimated useful lives are as follows:

Estimated
Useful Lives

Buildings . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30 to 40 years
Machinery and equipment . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 to 10 years
Computers and capitalized software . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3 to 5 years
Depreciation is computed over the assets’ estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method for
the majority of depreciable assets. Amortization expense for assets held under capital leases is included
in depreciation expense.

Product Tooling. Product tooling is tooling that is limited to the manufacture of a specific part or
parts of the same basic design. Product tooling includes dies, patterns, molds and jigs. Customer-owned
tooling for which reimbursement was contractually guaranteed by the customer is classified in other
assets on the consolidated balance sheets. When contractually guaranteed charges are approved for
billing to the customer, such charges are reclassified into accounts receivable. Tooling owned by the
Company is capitalized as property, plant and equipment, and amortized as cost of sales over its
estimated economic life, not to exceed five years.

Pre-production Costs. Pre-production engineering and research and development costs for which
the customer does not contractually guarantee reimbursement are expensed as incurred.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The Company performs either a quantitative or qualitative
assessment of goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if an event occurs or
circumstances indicate the carrying amount may be impaired. Goodwill impairment testing is performed
at the reporting unit level. To quantitatively test goodwill for impairment, the fair value of each
reporting unit is determined and compared to the carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the fair
value, then impairment may exist and further evaluation is required. The qualitative assessment

56
TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)


considers several factors at the reporting unit level including the excess of fair value over carrying value
as of the last quantitative impairment test, the length of time since the last fair value measurement, the
current carrying value, market and industry metrics, actual performance compared to forecasted
performance, and our current outlook on the business. If the qualitative assessment indicates it is more
likely than not that goodwill is impaired, the reporting unit is quantitatively tested for impairment.
Other indefinite-lived intangible assets are subject to impairment analysis annually. Indefinite-lived
intangible assets are tested for impairment by comparing the fair value to the carrying value. If the
carrying value exceeds the fair value, the asset is adjusted to fair value. Definite-lived intangible assets
are amortized over their estimated useful lives, and tested for impairment in accordance with the
methodology discussed in ‘‘Asset Impairment Losses.’’
Asset Impairment Losses. Asset impairment losses are recorded on long-lived assets and definite-
lived intangible assets when events and circumstances indicate that such assets may be impaired and the
projected undiscounted net cash flows to be generated by those assets are less than their carrying
amounts. If estimated future undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the carrying value of
the assets, the assets are adjusted to their fair values. Fair value is determined using appraisals or
discounted cash flow calculations.

Environmental Costs. Costs related to environmental assessments and remediation efforts at


current operating facilities, previously owned or operated facilities, and U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency Superfund or other waste site locations are accrued when it is probable that a liability has been
incurred and the amount of that liability can be reasonably estimated. Estimated costs are recorded at
undiscounted amounts, based on experience and assessments, and are regularly evaluated. The
liabilities are recorded in other current liabilities and long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance
sheets.

Debt Issuance Costs. The costs related to the issuance of long-term debt are deferred and
amortized into interest expense over the life of each respective debt issuance. Deferred amounts
associated with debt extinguished prior to maturity are expensed upon extinguishment as a loss on
retirement of debt.

Warranties. Product warranty liabilities are recorded based upon management estimates including
such factors as the written agreement with the customer, the length of the warranty period, the
historical performance of the product and likely changes in performance of newer products and the mix
and volume of products sold. Product warranty liabilities are reviewed on a regular basis and adjusted
to reflect actual experience.

Product Recall. Recall costs typically include the cost of the product being replaced, customer cost
of the recall and labor to remove and replace the defective part. Recall costs are recorded based on
management estimates developed utilizing actuarially established loss projections based on historical
claims data. Based on this actuarial estimation methodology, the Company accrues for expected but
unannounced recalls when revenues are recognized upon the shipment of product. In addition, as
recalls are announced, the Company reviews the actuarial estimation methodology and makes the
appropriate adjustments to the accrual, if necessary.

Research and Development. Research and development programs include research and
development for commercial products. Costs for such programs are expensed as incurred. Any
reimbursements received from customers are netted against such expenses. Research and development
expenses were $193 million, $164 million, and $155 million for the years ended December 31, 2013,
2012, and 2011, respectively.

Shipping and Handling. Shipping costs include payments to third-party shippers to move products
to customers. Handling costs include costs from the point the products were removed from finished
goods inventory to when provided to the shipper. Shipping and handling costs are expensed as incurred
as cost of sales.

Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on
deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that
includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce the deferred tax assets to
the amount management believes is more likely than not to be realized.

Financial Instruments. Gains or losses on derivative instruments that have been designated and
qualify as hedges of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or a liability, as well as the
offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item, are recognized in net earnings during the period of the
change in fair values. For derivative instruments that have been designated and qualify as hedges of the
exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, the gain or loss on the derivative is initially

58
TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)


reported as a component of other comprehensive earnings and reclassified to the consolidated
statements of earnings when the underlying hedged transaction affects net earnings. Any gain or loss on
the derivative in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows of the
hedged item is recognized in net earnings during the period of change. Derivatives not designated as
hedges are adjusted to fair value through net earnings.

Share-based Compensation. The Company recognizes compensation expense related to time-vested


stock options, stock-settled stock appreciation rights and restricted stock units subject to graded vesting
using the straight-line method over the applicable service period. Share-based awards that are settled in
cash are subject to liability accounting. Accordingly, the fair value for such awards is calculated on a
quarterly basis, and the liability is adjusted and expense is recognized, based on changes to the
percentage of time vested.

3. Acquisitions and Divestitures


Acquisitions. During 2011, the Company completed an acquisition in its Chassis Systems segment.
Based on the final determined fair value of the net assets acquired in comparison to the purchase
price, the Company recorded a gain on business acquisition of approximately $7 million. The
acquisition resulted in a gain due to the seller’s decision to exit a non-core business operation.

Divestitures. During 2011, the Company completed divestitures of certain non-safety related assets
and businesses in Asia and its cold forming business in Japan, all of which were included in the Chassis

Annual Assessment. The Company performed its annual assessment of goodwill for its Chassis
Systems, Occupant Safety Systems and Electronics segments as of October 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011. In
2013, the Company performed a quantitative impairment analysis of goodwill, which indicated that the
estimated fair value of each reporting unit substantially exceeded its corresponding carrying amount,
and as such, no reporting unit was at risk for impairment. In 2012 and 2011, the Company performed a
qualitative assessment of goodwill, and concluded that it is more likely than not that each reporting
unit’s fair value exceeded its carrying value, thus further impairment testing was not necessary.

The U.S. economic recovery and improvement in the North American automotive market, along
with improved Company performance, have all had a favorable impact on U.S. operating results. Based
upon this improved performance, the Company is now in a position to utilize certain historical foreign
tax credits in excess of previous expectations. As a result, income tax expense for the year ended
December 31, 2013 includes a tax benefit of approximately $153 million related to our ability to now
utilize certain historical U.S. foreign tax credits that are more likely than not to be realized in the
future. Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2013 also includes a tax benefit of
approximately $43 million related to the enactment of various tax legislation during the year. Income

tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2012 includes a tax benefit of approximately $255 million
related to various tax planning and legal entity restructuring actions.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities result from differences in the bases of assets and liabilities for
tax and financial statement purposes. The approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference
and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are as

The Company has separately reflected the current deferred tax asset and the long term deferred
tax assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets for December 31, 2013 and 2012. However,
the current deferred tax liability of $17 million as of December 31, 2013 and $5 million as of
December 31, 2012 is included in other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.
As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had deferred tax assets from domestic and
foreign net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards of approximately $682 million and $565 million,
respectively. Approximately $225 million of the deferred tax assets at December 31, 2013 relate to net
operating loss carryforwards or tax credits that can be carried forward indefinitely with the remainder
expiring between 2014 and 2033. The deferred tax asset relating to U.S. net operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards as of December 31, 2013 is lower than the actual amount reported and expected to
be reported on our U.S. tax returns by approximately $123 million. This difference is the result of tax
deductions in excess of financial statement amounts for stock based compensation and tax deductible

goodwill. When these amounts are realized, the Company will record a credit to additional paid in
capital and financial statement goodwill, respectively.
The Company has provided deferred income taxes for the estimated U.S. federal income tax,
foreign income tax, and applicable withholding tax effects of earnings of subsidiaries expected to be
distributed to the Company. Deferred income taxes have not been provided on approximately
$3.4 billion of undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries as such amounts are considered to
be permanently reinvested. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred income tax liability
relating to the remittance of such undistributed earnings is not practicable.
The Company reviews the likelihood that it will realize the benefit of its deferred tax assets and,
therefore, the need for valuation allowances on a quarterly basis, or more frequently if events indicate
that a review is required. In determining the requirement for a valuation allowance, the historical and
projected financial results of the legal entity or consolidated group recording the net deferred tax asset
is considered, along with all other available positive and negative evidence. The factors considered by
management in its determination of the probability of the realization of the deferred tax assets include
but are not limited to: recent historical financial results, historical taxable income, projected future
taxable income, the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences and tax planning
strategies. If, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not the deferred tax
assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded.
Concluding that a valuation allowance is not required is difficult when there is significant negative
evidence which is objective and verifiable, such as cumulative losses in recent years. The Company
utilizes a rolling twelve quarters of pre-tax income or loss adjusted for significant permanent book to
tax differences as a measure of our cumulative results in recent years. In certain foreign jurisdictions,
our analysis indicates that we have cumulative three year historical losses on this basis. This is
considered significant negative evidence which is objective and verifiable and therefore, difficult to
overcome. However, the three year loss position is not solely determinative and accordingly, we
consider all other available positive and negative evidence in our analysis. Based upon this analysis, we
believe it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax asset in certain foreign jurisdictions may not
be realized in the future. Accordingly, we maintain a valuation allowance related to those net deferred
tax assets.
During 2013, the Company recorded a net tax expense of $17 million resulting from net losses in
certain foreign jurisdictions with no corresponding tax benefit due to increases in our valuation
allowances. During 2012, the Company recorded a net tax benefit of $63 million related to reductions
in our global valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets, which is comprised of two items: 1) a
net tax expense of $37 million resulting from net losses in certain foreign jurisdictions with no
corresponding tax benefit due to increases in our valuation allowances, and 2) a net tax benefit of
$100 million resulting from changes in determinations relating to the potential realization of deferred
tax assets and the resulting reversal of a valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets in Canada and
certain other foreign subsidiaries. During 2011, the Company recorded a net tax benefit of $326 million
related to reductions in our global valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets, which is
comprised of two items: 1) a net tax benefit of $131 million resulting from net income in the U.S. and
certain foreign jurisdictions with no corresponding tax expense due to utilization of valuation
allowances, and 2) a benefit of $195 million resulting from changes in determinations relating to the

potential realization of deferred tax assets and the resulting reversal of a valuation allowance on net
deferred tax assets in the United States and certain foreign subsidiaries.
At December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, the Company had $176 million, $160 million, and
$148 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits, respectively. In addition, at December 31, 2013, 2012,
and 2011 the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate
was $136 million, $118 million, and $120 million, respectively. The gross unrecognized tax benefits
differ from the amount that would affect the effective tax rate due to the impact of valuation
allowances, and foreign country offsets relating to transfer pricing adjustments.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

The Company operates globally but considers its more significant tax jurisdictions to include the
United States, Germany, Brazil, China, the Czech Republic, Poland, Spain, and the United Kingdom.
Generally, the Company has years open to tax examination in significant tax jurisdictions from 2008
forward. The income tax returns of several subsidiaries in various tax jurisdictions are currently under
examination. Although it is not possible to predict the timing of the conclusions of all ongoing tax
audits with accuracy, it is possible that some or all of these examinations will conclude within the next
12 months. It is also reasonably possible that certain statute of limitations may expire relating to
various foreign jurisdictions within the next 12 months. As such, it is possible that a change in the
Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefits may occur; however, it is not possible to reasonably
estimate the effect this may have upon the gross unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties with respect to unrecognized tax benefits as a
component of income tax expense. At December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, accrued interest and
penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits was $36 million, $24 million, and $30 million,
respectively. Tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 includes net interest
and penalties of $12 million, $1 million, and $6 million, respectively on unrecognized tax benefits.
On July 17, 2013, the United Kingdom—Finance Bill of 2013 received Royal Assent, thereby
becoming law as the Finance Act of 2013 (the ‘‘2013 Act’’). The 2013 Act provides for a reduction to
the corporate income tax rate from 23% to 21% effective April 1, 2014, with a further reduction to
20% effective April 1, 2015. The impact of this tax legislation was a tax benefit of approximately
$21 million.

On January 2, 2013, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 was enacted, which retroactively
reinstated and extended various tax provisions applicable to the Company, including the research and
development tax credit and the look through rules for controlling foreign corporations. The impact of
this tax legislation was a tax benefit of approximately $15 million.
On July 17, 2012, the United Kingdom—Finance Bill of 2012 received Royal Assent, thereby
becoming law as the Finance Act of 2012 (the ‘‘2012 Act’’). The 2012 Act provides for a reduction to
the corporate income tax rate from 25% to 24% effective April 1, 2012, with a further reduction to
23% effective April 1, 2013. The impact of this tax legislation was a tax benefit of approximately
$9 million.
During 2011, the Company entered into an amendment to the master purchase agreement related
to the Company’s acquisition in 2003. As a result of the amendment, the Company is responsible for all
potential tax risks and benefits related to periods prior to the acquisition in 2003. The amendment
resulted in a benefit recorded to income tax expense during 2011 of $40 million.

During 2013, approximately 4,300 active participants in the Company’s U.S. salaried pension plan
were offered a one-time lump sum payment opportunity. Approximately 65% of the participants
accepted the offer, resulting in lump sum payments of $148 million which were paid from plan assets.
The assets and obligations in respect of this group were transferred into a new plan which was
subsequently terminated. This transaction resulted in a settlement loss of approximately $35 million.
Participants who did not accept the lump sum offer remained in the salaried plan and will continue to
be eligible to receive payments in accordance with the terms of the plan.
In the fourth quarter of 2012, approximately 21,000 retired and deferred vested participants in the
Company’s U.S. salaried pension plan were offered a one-time lump sum payment opportunity.
Approximately 50% of the participants accepted the offer, resulting in lump sum payments of
$298 million which were paid from plan assets. This transaction resulted in a settlement loss of

approximately $88 million. Participants who did not accept the lump sum offer will continue to be
eligible to receive payments in accordance with the terms of the plan.
In 2012, obligations relating to a certain group of deferred vested participants were settled in the
U.K. resulting in a reduction in the obligations through payments of $74 million.

Plan Assumptions. The weighted-average assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit cost
were:

Rate of increase in compensation levels . . . 5.00% N/A 2.90% 4.76% N/A 2.92% 4.78% N/A 2.89%

To develop the expected long-term rate of return on asset assumptions, the Company considered
the historical returns and the future expectations for returns for each asset class, as well as the target
asset allocation of the pension portfolio. The U.K. pension plan and certain of the U.S. pension plans
are closed to future benefits, therefore the rate of increase in compensation was not applicable in
determining the net period benefit cost for 2013, 2012 and 2011, nor in determining the benefit
obligation as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.
The weighted-average assumptions used to calculate the benefit obligations were:

Plan Assets. The U.S. and U.K. plan assets represent approximately 95% of the total plan assets
of defined benefit plans. All remaining assets are deemed immaterial and not reflected below.
The goals and investment objectives of the asset strategy are to ensure that there is an adequate
level of assets to meet benefit obligations to participants and retirees over the life of the participants
and maintain liquidity in the plan assets sufficient to cover current benefit obligations. Risk is managed
by investing in a broad range of asset classes and the use of liability matching derivative instruments.

Within the asset classes, investments are made in a broad range of individual securities. There are no
equity securities of the Company in the equity asset category.
The investment policy for the U.K. and U.S. pension plan is based on a low volatility and risk
asset allocation that targets a sufficient level of return to meet benefit payments as they become due
over the long term. The investment policy includes a significant allocation to a liability driven cash-flow
matching strategy which also includes a substantial interest rate hedging program as well as an inflation
hedging program in the U.K. The remaining assets are invested mainly in physical and synthetic
equities (with a degree of protection from downside risk), a range of U.K., U.S. and other credit
opportunities (including asset backed securities) and property to achieve a diversified real return to
meet the expected future liability outflows.
As of December 31, 2013, the investment policy resulted in an asset allocation for all plans of 74%
in fixed income investments, 14% in equity and structured equity investments, 2% in real estate, and
10% in cash and other investments. Equity investments include investments in large-cap and mid-cap
companies and mutual funds located throughout the world. Structured equity investments include
equity option ‘‘collar’’ structures which reduce the outright exposure to falls in the levels of underlying
equity markets. Fixed income securities include government bonds, corporate bonds of companies from
diversified industries, asset backed securities and collateral assets held in government bonds for
structured equity holdings. Real estate includes investments in real estate and funds that invest in real
estate. Cash and other investments primarily include cash held by the plan, U.K. government treasuries
and certain types of derivative instruments including interest rate and inflation swaps that are utilized
to manage risks associated with the assets held by the plan.
The fair values of the Company’s U.S. and U.K. pension plan assets by asset category using the
fair value three-level hierarchy (see note 10) are as follows:

Contributions. In 2014, the Company’s minimum expected funding is $50 million for the U.K.
pension plan and approximately $50 million for pension plans in the rest of the world. However, the
Company may, at its discretion, make additional contributions. We do not expect to make any funding
contributions to the U.S. plans.

Expected Future Pension Benefit Payments. The following pension benefit payments, which reflect
current obligations and expected future service, as appropriate, are expected to be paid from the
underlying plans to the participants:

Other Benefits. The Company also sponsors qualified defined contribution pension plans covering
employees at certain operations and an unfunded non-qualified defined contribution plan for a select
group of highly compensated employees. These plans allow participants to defer compensation, and
generally provide employer matching contributions.

Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions (‘‘OPEB’’)


The Company provides health care and life insurance benefits for a substantial number of its
retired employees in the United States and Canada, and for certain future retirees. The health care
plans provide for the sharing of costs, in the form of retiree contributions, deductibles and coinsurance.
Life insurance benefits are generally noncontributory. The Company’s policy is to fund the cost of
postretirement health care and life insurance benefits as those benefits become payable.

10. Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments


The inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value are prioritized into a three-level
hierarchy. This hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets
and liabilities and lowest priority to unobservable inputs, as follows:

Level 1. Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities that the Company can access at the measurement date.

Level 2. Inputs are other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability,
either directly or indirectly.

Level 3. Unobservable inputs are supported by little or no market activity. The unobservable
inputs represent the Company’s best assumptions of how market participants would price the assets
or liabilities.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis


The fair value measurements for assets and liabilities recognized in the Company’s consolidated
balance sheet are as follows:

As of
December 31, Measurement
2013 2012 Approach
(Dollars

Foreign currency exchange contracts—current assets . . . . $ 6 $16 Level 2

Interest rate swap contracts—noncurrent liability . . . . . . . — 1 Level 2

10. Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments (Continued)


The Company’s foreign currency exchange contracts and interest rate swap contracts are recorded
at fair value derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data under the market
approach. Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities (risk adjusted), and market-
corroborated inputs, such as market comparables, interest rates, yield curves and other items that allow
value to be determined. The Company uses quoted currency forward rates and quoted interest rate
curves, respectively, to calculate forward values, and then discounting the forward values. In addition,
the Company’s calculation of the fair value of its foreign currency option contracts uses quoted
currency volatilities.
The discount rates for all derivative contracts are based on quoted bank deposit or swap interest
rates. For contracts which, when aggregated by counterparty, are in a liability position, the rates are
adjusted by the credit spread which market participants would apply if buying these contracts from the
Company’s counterparties.
There were no changes in the Company’s valuation techniques during the year ended
December 31, 2013.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis


In addition to items that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, we also have assets that
may be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets include long-lived assets, intangible
assets and investments in affiliates which may be written down to fair value as a result of impairment.
The Company has determined that the fair value measurements related to each of these assets rely
primarily on Company-specific inputs and the Company’s assumptions about the use of the assets, as
observable inputs are not available. As such, the Company has determined that each of these fair value
measurements reside within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. To determine the fair value of
long-lived assets, the Company utilizes the projected cash flows expected to be generated by the
long-lived assets, then discounts the future cash flows over the useful life of the long-lived assets by
using a risk-adjusted rate for the Company. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company
recorded asset impairments of $9 million associated with its determination of the fair value of its
long-lived assets that exhibited indicators of impairment (see Note 12).

Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value


The carrying value and estimated fair value of financial instruments that are not carried on the
Company’s balance sheet at fair value are as follows:
As of December 31,
2013 2012
Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Measurement
Value Value Value Value Approach
(Dollars in millions)
Short-term debt, fixed and floating rate . . . . . . . . . . $ 159 $ 159 $ 67 $ 67 Level 2

Fixed rate exchangeable notes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 134 $ 375 $ 150 $ 338 Level 2
The carrying value of short-term debt approximates fair value because of the short term nature of
these instruments. The fair value of long-term debt was determined primarily from quoted market

78

prices, as provided by participants in the secondary marketplace. For long-term debt without a quoted
market price, the Company estimates the fair value using discounted cash flow models with market
based borrowing rates for similar types of arrangements.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities


The Company is exposed to certain financial market risks related to its ongoing business
operations. The primary risks managed through derivative financial instruments and hedging activities
are foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk. Derivative financial instruments and
hedging activities are utilized to protect the Company’s cash flow from adverse movements in foreign
currency exchange rates and commodity prices as well as to manage interest costs. The Company is
exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the derivative financial
instruments. The Company attempts to limit this exposure by entering into agreements directly with a
number of major financial institutions that meet the Company’s credit standards and that are expected
to fully satisfy their obligations under the contracts, and by monitoring the Company’s credit exposure
to each counterparty in light of its current credit quality.
The Company manufactures and sells its products in countries throughout the world. As a result, it
is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company enters into foreign
exchange contracts to hedge portions of its foreign currency denominated forecasted revenues,
purchases and the subsequent cash flows after considering natural offsets within the consolidated group.
The effective part of the gains or losses on these instruments are generally recorded in other
comprehensive earnings (losses) until the underlying transaction is recognized in net earnings. The
earnings impact is reported either in sales, cost of sales, or other (income) expense—net, to match the
underlying transaction. The ineffective portion of the gains or losses on these contracts, as well as all
gains or losses on contracts which are held for economic purposes but not designated for hedge
accounting treatment (including contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting purposes), are
reported in earnings immediately.
In addition, the Company enters into certain foreign exchange contracts that do not qualify for
hedge accounting to hedge recognized foreign currency transactions. Gains and losses on these
contracts are recorded in net earnings and are substantially offset by the effect of the revaluation of the
underlying foreign currency denominated transaction.
As of December 31, 2013, the Company had a notional value of $2.6 billion in foreign exchange
contracts outstanding. These foreign exchange contracts mature at various dates through November
2016. Foreign currency exposures are reviewed monthly and any natural offsets are considered prior to
entering into a derivative financial instrument.

Cash Flow Hedges. For any derivative instrument that is designated and qualifies as a cash flow
hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of Other
Comprehensive Income (‘‘OCI’’), and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period which the
hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge
ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, which were
immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, are recognized in earnings.
For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the effective portion of gains and losses
on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges and recognized in OCI was a loss of $33 million, a gain

79
TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

10. Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments (Continued)


of $80 million and a loss of $68 million, respectively, which were related to foreign currency exchange
contracts. The effective portion of gains on cash flow hedges reclassified from OCI into the statement
of earnings for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $1 million, $3 million and
$11 million, respectively, and was included in various line items on the statement of earnings. Gains
and losses reclassified into earnings include the discontinuance of cash flow hedges, which were
immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011. Approximately $7 million of losses,
net of tax, which are included in OCI, are expected to be reclassified into earnings in the next twelve
months.

Fair Value Hedges. For any derivative instrument that is designated and qualifies as a fair value
hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the underlying hedged
item is recognized in current earnings. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had no fair
value hedges outstanding.

Undesignated Derivatives. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company
recognized a loss of $5 million, a gain of $14 million, and a loss of $10 million, respectively, in other
(income) expense—net, for derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments.

Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features. The Company has entered into International Swaps and
Derivatives Association (‘‘ISDA’’) agreements with each of its significant derivative counterparties.
These agreements provide bilateral netting and offsetting of accounts that are in a liability position with
those that are in an asset position. These agreements do not require the Company to maintain a
minimum credit rating in order to be in compliance with the terms of the agreements and do not
contain any margin call provisions or collateral requirements that could be triggered by derivative
instruments in a net liability position. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had not posted any
collateral to support its derivatives in a liability position.

Senior Notes
4.45% Senior Notes. In November 2013, the Company issued $400 million in aggregate principal
amount of 4.45% senior unsecured notes due 2023 in a private placement. Interest is payable
semi-annually on December 1 and June 1 of each year beginning June 1, 2014. Net proceeds from the
offering were approximately $395 million after deducting discounts and debt issuance costs.

4.50% Senior Notes. In February 2013, the Company issued $400 million in aggregate principal
amount of 4.50% senior unsecured notes due 2021 in a private placement. Interest is payable

semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 of each year beginning September 1, 2013. Net proceeds
from the offering were approximately $394 million after deducting debt issuance costs.

8.875% Senior Notes. In November 2009, the Company issued $250 million in aggregate principal
amount of 8.875% senior unsecured notes due December 2017 in a private placement. In December
2013, the Company optionally redeemed the remaining $205 million in principal amount outstanding of
the 8.875% Senior Notes at a price of 104.438% of par and recorded a loss on retirement of debt of
$12 million, including the redemption premium and write-off of the related debt issuance costs and
discount.

Senior Notes Issued in 2007. For the 7% Senior Notes and 6.375% Senior Notes, each due March
2014, and 7.25% Senior Notes due March 2017, each of which is unsecured (collectively, the ‘‘2007
Senior Notes’’), interest is payable semi-annually on March 15 and September 15 of each year.

Senior Note Repurchases. During 2013 and 2012, the Company repurchased portions of its senior
notes due in 2014 and 2017 totaling approximately $91 million and $48 million, respectively, in
principal amount and recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $5 million in each year, including the
write-off of a portion of debt issuance costs, discounts and premiums. The repurchased notes were
retired upon settlement.

Exchangeable Senior Notes


In November 2009, the Company issued approximately $259 million in aggregate principal amount
of 3.50% exchangeable senior unsecured notes due 2015 (the ‘‘Exchangeable Senior Notes’’) in a
private placement. Prior to September 1, 2015, the notes are exchangeable only upon specified events
or conditions being met and, thereafter, at any time. One condition was met as of December 31, 2013,
and as such, the notes are exchangeable in the first quarter of 2014. They will remain exchangeable in
subsequent quarters if the condition continues to be met, which occurs if the last reported sale price of
the Company’s common stock for at least 20 of the last 30 trading days of the immediately preceding
quarter is greater than $38.415, subject to adjustment. The initial exchange rate is 33.8392 shares of the
Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes. The Company’s exchange obligation
may be settled, at its option, in shares of its stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of its
stock. Interest is payable on June 1 and December 1 of each year. The Exchangeable Senior Notes will
mature on December 1, 2015, unless earlier exchanged, repurchased by the Company at the holder’s
option upon a fundamental change, or optionally redeemed by the Company as provided in the
indenture.
The Exchangeable Senior Notes were recorded with a debt discount which decreased debt and
increased paid-in-capital in order to separate the liability and embedded equity components. The debt
component will accrete up to the principal amount to effectively yield 9.0% over the term of the debt.
The debt discount as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $14 million and $24 million,
respectively. The total interest expense recognized for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and
2011, was approximately $13 million, $13 million, and $16 million, respectively, including $6 million,
$6 million, and $8 million in each respective period relating to the stated coupon rate.

880,000 shares of Company stock. In conjunction with the exchange, the Company recorded a loss on
retirement of debt of $3 million including the write-off of a portion of debt issuance costs and the debt
discount, as well as a reduction of $37 million to paid-in-capital relating to the conversion feature of
the Exchangeable Senior Notes. During 2011, the Company repurchased portions of its Exchangeable
Senior Notes totaling approximately $85 million in principal amount and recorded a loss on retirement
of debt of $13 million, including the write-off of a portion of debt issuance costs and the debt discount.
In 2011, the Company also recorded a reduction of $66 million to paid-in-capital relating to the
repurchase of the conversion feature of the Exchangeable Senior Notes. The repurchased notes were
retired upon settlement.

Senior Credit Facilities


During the third quarter of 2012, the Company entered into its Eighth Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement (the ‘‘Eighth Credit Agreement’’) with the lenders party thereto. The Eighth Credit
Agreement provides for senior credit facilities consisting of (i) a revolving credit facility in the amount
of $1.4 billion which matures in September 2017, subject to certain conditions described below (the
‘‘Revolving Credit Facility’’), and (ii) additional availability which may be used in the future for one or
more term loans or additional revolving facilities (together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the
‘‘Facilities’’). All of the Facilities are undrawn. The Company paid fees and expenses totaling
approximately $9 million relating to the transaction. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the
Company recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $1 million related to the write-off of a portion of
debt issuance costs associated with the prior credit agreement.
The Revolving Credit Facility will mature on September 28, 2017; provided that if, as of the last
fiscal day of October 2016, an aggregate amount of the 7.25% Senior Notes in excess of $100 million
remains outstanding and the amount of available liquidity does not exceed the aggregate amount of
cash necessary to redeem the 7.25% Senior Notes by at least $500 million, then the maturity date of
the Revolving Credit Facility will be 20 business days after such date.
The commitment fee and the applicable margin for borrowing on the Revolving Credit Facility are
subject to a ratings-based pricing grid. The applicable margin in effect as of December 31, 2013 was
0.25% with respect to base rate borrowings and 1.25% with respect to eurocurrency borrowings. The
commitment fee on the undrawn amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility was 0.25%.
The Company received an investment grade corporate credit rating with a stable outlook from
Standard & Poor’s Rating Services in the third quarter of 2013. Due to such investment grade rating,
under the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company gave notice which automatically released
the collateral securing the obligations under the facility. The Company may be required to reinstate the
released collateral if the Company no longer has an investment grade corporate credit rating with a
stable outlook from at least one of the required rating agencies.
During 2011, the Company made an offer to certain lenders under the prior credit agreement
whose commitments were scheduled to mature on May 9, 2012 to extend the maturity date of their
commitments to November 30, 2014. Effective May 2, 2011, the Company terminated the commitments
of those lenders who did not accept the offer. In conjunction with the termination, the Company
recorded a loss on retirement of debt of $3 million related to the write-off of a portion of the debt
issuance costs.

Debt Covenants
Senior Notes. The indentures governing the 2007 Senior Notes, 4.50% Senior Notes and 4.45%
Senior Notes contain covenants that impose significant restrictions on the Company’s business. The
indentures for the 2007 Senior Notes contain covenants that could restrict, subject to a number of
qualifications and limitations, the ability of TRW Automotive Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company (‘‘TAI’’), and its subsidiaries to pay certain dividends and distributions, or repurchase equity
interests of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (unless certain conditions are met). All the
indentures contain covenants that, among other things, could restrict, subject to a number of
qualifications and limitations, the ability of TAI and its subsidiaries to incur liens, engage in mergers or
consolidations, and enter into sale and leaseback transactions. The indentures for each of the
Company’s outstanding notes also contain customary events of default.

Senior Credit Facilities. The Company’s Eighth Credit Agreement contains various customary
covenants that could restrict, subject to certain exceptions, the ability of the Company and its
subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness or issue preferred stock; repurchase or repay other
indebtedness; repurchase capital stock; pay dividends; create liens on assets; make investments, loans or
advances; make certain acquisitions; engage in mergers or consolidations; enter into sale and leaseback
transactions; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; amend certain material agreements; and
change the business conducted by the Company.
As of December 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants.

Debt Repurchases
As market conditions warrant, the Company may from time to time repurchase debt securities,
including exchangeable debt securities, issued by the Company or its subsidiaries, in privately
negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer, exchange offer, or by other means, or the
Company may optionally redeem such debt securities.

Other Borrowings
The Company has borrowings under uncommitted credit agreements in many of the countries in
which it operates. The borrowings are from various domestic and international banks at quoted market
interest rates.

12. Restructuring Charges and Asset Impairments


On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its business and objectives to ensure that it is
properly configured and sized based on changing market conditions. Accordingly, the Company
implements certain restructuring initiatives, including plant rationalizations and targeted workforce
reduction efforts, as it deems appropriate.
The Company’s restructuring charges consist of severance, retention and outplacement services and
severance-related postemployment benefits (collectively, ‘‘severance and other charges’’), curtailment
losses (gains) related to reductions of pension and retiree medical benefit obligations due to headcount
reductions, and asset impairments related to restructuring activities.

through 2017 and is comprised primarily of involuntary employee termination arrangements in Europe.

13. Lease Commitments


The Company leases certain offices, manufacturing and research buildings, machinery, automobiles
and computer and other equipment. Such leases, some of which are noncancelable and in many cases
include renewals, are set to expire at various dates. Rental expense for operating leases was
$111 million, $112 million, and $111 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011,
respectively.

14. Capital Stock


The Company’s authorized capital stock consists of (i) 500 million shares of common stock, par
value $.01 per share (the ‘‘Common Stock’’), of which 114,298,800 shares were issued and outstanding
as of December 31, 2013, net of 4,668 shares of treasury stock withheld at cost to satisfy tax obligations
for a specific grant under the Company’s stock-based compensation plan; and (ii) 250 million shares of
preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, including 500,000 shares of Series A junior participating
preferred stock, of which no shares are currently issued or outstanding.
From time to time, capital stock is issued in conjunction with the exercise of stock options and
stock-settled stock appreciation rights and the vesting of restricted stock units issued as part of the
Company’s stock incentive plan (see Note 15).

Share Repurchase Programs. The Company has two share repurchase programs in place, consisting
of a $2 billion program that extends through December 31, 2016 (the ‘‘$2 Billion Program’’), and a
program that is intended to offset, on an ongoing basis, the dilution created by the Company’s stock
incentive plan for up to 1.5 million shares in 2014 and each subsequent year (the ‘‘Anti-Dilution
Program’’). The Anti-Dilution program does not have an expiration date. The Company is not
obligated to repurchase any shares under either program.
During 2013, the Company repurchased under a variety of different methods, including accelerated
share repurchase programs, approximately 7.5 million shares of its common stock for a total of
$520 million. Included in this number is 1.5 million shares that were purchased under the Anti-Dilution
Program; additional shares may be purchased under the program in subsequent years.
Additionally in 2013, Exchangeable Senior Notes in principal amount of approximately $26 million
were exchanged by holders for approximately 880,000 shares of Company stock.

Equity Awards
Effective in February 2003, the Company established the TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. 2003
Stock Incentive Plan (as amended, the ‘‘2003 Plan’’), under which stock options, stock appreciation
rights, and restricted stock units remain outstanding. Effective in May 2012, the Company’s
shareholders approved the TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (the ‘‘2012
Plan’’). The 2012 Plan permits the grant of up to 6.15 million stock options, stock appreciation rights,
restricted stock units and other stock-based awards to the employees, directors or consultants of the
Company or its affiliates. As a result of the shareholders’ approval of the 2012 Plan, no new awards
will be granted under the 2003 Plan.
As of December 31, 2013, the Company had 4,545,225 shares of Common Stock available for
issuance under the 2012 Plan. In addition, 438,897 stock options, 3,133,453 SSARs, 805,033 nonvested
RSUs and 15,300 nonvested phantom stock units (‘‘PSUs’’) were outstanding as of December 31, 2013.
All of the SSARs and stock options have an 8-year term and vest ratably over three years, substantially
all of the RSUs vest ratably over three years and a majority of the PSUs cliff vest after three years. As
a result of changes to retirement eligibility provisions for awards granted in 2013, the Company applies
a non-substantive vesting period approach whereby expense is accelerated for those employees that
receive awards and are eligible to retire prior to the award vesting.
The significant equity award grants during 2013, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

February 22, 2013 February 23, 2012 February 24, 2011

Exercise price . . . $ 58.20 $ 45.11 $ 54.95
Maximum value . $ 110.00 $ 95.00 $ 100.00
The exercise price of the SSARs and stock options is equal to the fair market value under the
applicable plan of the Company common stock on the grant date. For awards granted in 2013, the fair
market value is the closing stock price. For awards granted in 2011 and 2012, the fair market value is
calculated as the average of the high and low stock price.
The total share-based compensation expense recognized for the Plan was as follows:

The Company uses historical data to estimate SSAR and option exercise and employee termination
assumptions within the Black-Scholes option pricing valuation model. The expected volatilities are
primarily developed using historical data of the Company. The expected life of SSARs and options
granted represents the period of time that they are expected to be outstanding. The risk free rate is

based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curves with a remaining term equal to the expected SSAR
and option life.
Fair value for SSARs was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing
model using the following weighted-average assumptions:

In addition, 124,718 of the outstanding RSUs are applicable to retirement eligible employees as of
December 31, 2013.
The total fair value of RSUs vested and distributed during the years ended December 31, 2013,
2012 and 2011 were $26 million, $22 million and $32 million, respectively.
As of December 31, 2013, there was $28 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related
to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plan. Such cost is expected to
be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately two years.

Cash Awards
For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized compensation
expense associated with its cash-settled share-based compensation and retention awards of
approximately $1 million, $4 million and $15 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, both the
liability and fair value of the cash awards were $1 million, which represents the final tranche of the
cash incentive awards granted in 2011. As of December 31, 2012 the liability and fair value of the cash
awards were $1 million and $3 million, respectively. During the first quarter of 2012, approximately
$40 million was paid to fully satisfy the obligation for the awards granted in 2009.

16. Related Party Transactions


Blackstone. Pursuant to the Company’s Transaction and Monitoring Fee Agreement (the ‘‘TMF
Agreement’’) with an affiliate of The Blackstone Group L.P. (‘‘Blackstone’’), Blackstone had provided
the Company certain monitoring, advisory and consulting services. The Company was paying an annual
monitoring fee of $5 million for these services. In the first quarter of 2011, the TMF Agreement was
terminated in return for the Company’s commitment to pay Blackstone a total of approximately
$10 million under a quarterly payment schedule commensurate with the payment schedule under the
TMF Agreement. During 2011, approximately $11 million of expense was included in the consolidated
statements of earnings, which included the $10 million expense recognized upon termination as well as
$1 million of expense that was recognized prior to the termination. No additional expense has been
recognized subsequent to 2011 as a result of these arrangements.

Secondary Offerings. In February and August of 2013, Automotive Investors LLC (‘‘AI LLC’’), an
affiliate of Blackstone, and certain management stockholders sold 10 million and 10.9 million shares,
respectively, of the Company’s common stock in underwritten registered public offerings (the
‘‘Offerings’’) pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC on
August 10, 2012. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the Offerings, nor did its number of
shares outstanding materially change. The Company incurred expenses totaling less than $1 million in
connection with these Offerings. As a result of the Offerings, AI LLC and Blackstone no longer hold
any ownership interest in the Company.

17. Contingencies
Various claims, lawsuits and administrative proceedings are pending or threatened against the
Company or its subsidiaries, covering a wide range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of the
Company’s business activities with respect to commercial, patent, product liability, environmental and
occupational safety and health law matters. In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries are

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

17. Contingencies (Continued)


conducting a number of environmental investigations and remedial actions at current and former
locations of certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. Along with other companies, certain subsidiaries of
the Company have been named potentially responsible parties for certain waste management sites.
Each of these matters is subject to various uncertainties, and some of these matters may be resolved
unfavorably with respect to the Company or the relevant subsidiary. A reserve estimate for each
environmental matter is established using standard engineering cost estimating techniques on an
undiscounted basis. In the determination of such costs, consideration is given to the professional
judgment of Company environmental engineers, in consultation with outside environmental specialists,
when necessary. At multi-party sites, the reserve estimate also reflects the expected allocation of total
project costs among the various potentially responsible parties.
As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had reserves for environmental matters of
$68 million and $67 million, respectively. In addition, the Company has established a receivable for a
portion of this environmental liability as a result of its right to indemnification for 50% of any
environmental liabilities associated with the operation or ownership of the Company’s automotive
business existing at or prior to March 2003. The Company believes any liability, in excess of amounts
accrued in our consolidated financial statements, that may result from the resolution of environmental
matters for which sufficient information is available to support these cost estimates, will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
However, the Company cannot predict the effect on the Company’s financial position, results of
operations or cash expenditures for aspects of certain matters for which there is insufficient
information. In addition, the Company cannot predict the effect of compliance with environmental laws
and regulations with respect to unknown environmental matters on the Company’s financial statements
or the possible effect of compliance with environmental requirements imposed in the future.
The Company faces an inherent business risk of exposure to product liability, recall and warranty
claims in the event that its products actually or allegedly fail to perform as expected or the use of its
products results, or is alleged to result, in bodily injury and/or property damage. Accordingly, the
Company could experience material warranty, recall or product liability losses in the future. For further
information, including quantification of the Company’s product warranty liability, see the description of
‘‘Warranties’’ in Note 2.
While certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have been subject in recent years to asbestos-related
claims, management believes that such claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
financial statements. In general, these claims seek damages for illnesses alleged to have resulted from
exposure to asbestos used in certain components sold in the past by the Company’s subsidiaries.
Management believes that the majority of the claimants were vehicle mechanics. The vast majority of
these claims name as defendants numerous manufacturers and suppliers of a variety of products
allegedly containing asbestos. Management believes that, to the extent any of the products sold by the
Company’s subsidiaries and at issue in these cases contained asbestos, the asbestos was encapsulated.
Based upon several years of experience with such claims, management believes that only a small
proportion of the claimants has or will ever develop any asbestos-related illness.
Neither settlement costs in connection with asbestos claims nor annual legal fees to defend these
claims have been material in the past. These claims are strongly disputed by the Company and it has
been its policy to defend against them aggressively. Many of these cases have been dismissed without
any payment whatsoever. Moreover, there is significant insurance coverage with solvent carriers with

91
TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

17. Contingencies (Continued)


respect to a portion of these claims. However, while costs to defend and settle these claims in the past
have not been material, there can be no assurances that this will remain so in the future.
Management believes that the ultimate resolution of the foregoing contingencies will not have a
material effect on the Company’s financial statements as a whole.

Antitrust Matters
Antitrust authorities, including those in the United States and Europe, are investigating possible
violations of competition (antitrust) laws by automotive parts suppliers (referred to herein as the
‘‘Antitrust Investigations’’). The U.S. Department of Justice (‘‘DOJ’’) initiated an investigation into the
Company’s Occupant Safety Systems business in June 2011, which was concluded in 2012 when the
court approved a plea agreement between one of the Company’s German subsidiaries and the DOJ.
Also in June 2011 the European Commission initiated an Antitrust Investigation which includes the
Company, among others, and which is ongoing. While the duration and outcome of the European
Commission’s investigation is uncertain, a determination that the Company has violated European
competition (antitrust) laws could result in significant penalties which could have a material adverse
effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, as well as its reputation. While
the Company cannot estimate the ultimate financial impact resulting from the European investigation,
it will continue to evaluate developments in this matter on a regular basis and will record an accrual as
and when appropriate.
The Company’s policy is to comply with all laws and regulations, including all antitrust and
competition laws. The Company is cooperating fully with the competition authorities in the context of
their ongoing investigations.
The Company has been named as a defendant in purported class action lawsuits filed on various
dates from June 2012 through July 2013, which are now pending in the United States District Court for
the Eastern District of Michigan and in various courts in Canada on behalf of vehicle purchasers,
lessors and dealers, alleging that the Company and certain of its competitors conspired to fix and raise
prices for Occupant Safety Systems products. The Company intends to defend these cases vigorously.
Management believes that the ultimate resolution of these cases will not have a material adverse effect
on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a whole.

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT REGISTERED
PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.
Livonia, Michigan
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of TRW Automotive Holdings
Corp. as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of earnings,
comprehensive earnings, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 2013. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule
included as Item 15(a)(2). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the
Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the consolidated financial position of TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. at December 31, 2013 and
2012, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 2013 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth
therein.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States), TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.’s internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992
framework) and our report dated February 14, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT REGISTERED
PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.
Livonia, Michigan
We have audited TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.’s internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992 framework) (the
COSO criteria). TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.’s management is responsible for maintaining
effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal
control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal
Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained
in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over
financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design
and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other
procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for
external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal
control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the
maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only
in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or
detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject
to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree
of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. maintained, in all material respects, effective
internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31,
2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive earnings, changes in
stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013
and our report dated February 14, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, based on their evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Rule 13a—15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of
December 31, 2013, have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are
effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files
and submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ‘‘Exchange Act’’) is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the specified time periods and is accumulated and communicated to
the Company’s management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Management is responsible for
establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined
in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a
process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with United States generally
accepted accounting principles.
Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide
only reasonable assurance and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Further, because of changes in
conditions, effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting may vary over time.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted an assessment of the
effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. The assessment
was based on criteria established in the framework entitled, Internal Control—Integrated Framework,
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992 framework)
(the COSO criteria).
Based on this assessment, using the criteria referenced above, management concluded that our
internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2013. The effectiveness of the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013 has been audited by
Ernst & Young, LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report
included herein.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There was no change in the Company’s
internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2013 that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting.

In the letter to the stockholders, the Company has provided certain information which is not
calculated according to GAAP (‘‘non-GAAP’’), such as operating income, net earnings and diluted
earnings per share, each excluding special items, and free cash flow. Management uses these
non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of the Company and its business segments
and to forecast future periods. Management believes that investors will likewise find these non-GAAP
measures useful in evaluating such performance. Such measures are frequently used by security
analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our
industry.
Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our reported
results prepared in accordance with GAAP and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly
titled measures of other companies. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to the most
comparable GAAP financial measure, please see the accompanying reconciliation schedules.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial information and reconciliation schedules
should be read in conjunction with the TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2013, which contains historical consolidated financial statements and
the accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements.

Reconciliation of GAAP Operating Cash Flow to Free Cash Flow

Free Cash Flow


Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, and is
used by management in analyzing the Company’s ability to service and repay its debt and to forecast
future periods. However, this measure does not represent funds available for investment or other
discretionary uses since it does not deduct cash used to service debt or for other non-discretionary
expenditures.
