The Plastics Division produces molded pickup truck cargo boxes, exterior automotive components, structural automotive components, proprietary raw sheet molded compounds (“SMC”), and certain products used in non-automotive applications.

Headquartered in Troy, Michigan, TK Budd is a leading supplier of high-quality body and chassis components and systems to the automotive industry.

Aerospace & Defense Industry Trends“After more than a decade of consolidation, portfolio shaping and process improvements, is the aerospace and defense industry beginning to hit its stride?”Such was the question posed by Aviation Week and Space Technology in its ‘2006 Top-Performing Companies’ study, released in July. The study, undertaken in partnership with HOLT (a division of Credit Suisse), Deloitte Consulting LLC (“Deloitte Consulting”) and High Strategy, focused on a variety of metrics to analyze and rank the operating performance of publicly traded aerospace and defense companies.

The study noted that high marks and improvement in the industry have resulted often from an increased focus on return on invested capital, careful pruning of portfolios, focus on cost control and successful integration of acquisitions. Typically, a focus on increasing return on invested capital can lead companies to steer away from their sometimes past practices of chasing top-line growth objectives at any cost. Acquisitions in recent years of outsourced government service businesses reflect this, for while they are typically lower margin businesses, they require far less capital investment than large, new procurement platforms.

According to principals of Deloitte Consulting, good financial and operational discipline, delivering on long-term strategies for profitable growth and relentless attention to continuous improvement are all shared attributes of the leaders of the study. However, while many aerospace companies are showing improved operating results, they remain less efficient when compared to industries such as semiconductors or automobiles. Excess capacity in the industry remains partly to blame, particularly for multi-national European defense contractors.

General Economic TrendsHeadlining economic news for the quarter, the Federal Open Market Committee broke a three-year trend of 17 straight interest rate increases and held its target for the federal funds rate steady at 5.25% during its August 8th and September 20th meetings. This pause was due in large part to moderating economic growth, reduced inflationary pressures, and a cooling of the housing market. More specifically, the increase in real GDP for the second quarter of 2006 tempered to an annual rate of 2.6% according to final estimates released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. In its most recent report, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported the unemployment rate to be 4.6%. Additionally, a slow-down in the sales of automobiles and related parts has helped to keep inflationary woes at bay.

Inflation pressures were further alleviated as crude oil prices declined through the close of the quarter to just over $62 a barrel after peaking at a record $78.40 in July. Curtailed Middle East tensions and a mild start to the hurricane season helped provide relief to the record prices.

Feeding off the movement of oil prices and a pause in interest rate hikes, major stock indices rallied to approach record levels near the end of the quarter. Despite nearing its year low in July, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rallied at the end of the third quarter. The index narrowly missed setting a new all-time high close, which was later achieved early in the fourth quarter. Other indices, including the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite, also surged in the later portion of the quarter. The Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 4.7% during the third quarter, while the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite increased by 5.2% and 4.0% respectively.

In addition to the advancing equity markets, global M&A activity pushed forward in the third quarter with approximately $745 billion in announced deals. This represents an increase of 15.5% over the same period last year, according to Thomson Financial. Private equity investors continue to play an important role in M&A as buyouts flourish in both the middle-market and large cap segments. Thus far, the first nine months have seen more than $460 billion in buyouts, nearly twice that of the same period last year.
