TRW Reports First Quarter 2008 Financial Results; Revises Full Year
Outlook
LIVONIA, MICHIGAN, April 30, 2008 — TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. (NYSE:
TRW), the global leader in active and passive safety systems, today reported first-
quarter 2008 financial results with sales of $4.1 billion, an increase of 16.2 percent
compared to the same period a year ago. The Company reported first quarter net
earnings of $94 million or $0.92 per diluted share, which compares to a net loss in the
prior year of $(86) million or $(0.87) per share.
The prior year result included charges of $147 million related to the Company’s debt
recapitalization plan that was initiated in the prior year quarter. The plan was
completed during the second quarter of 2007 and included the refinancing of
substantially all of the Company’s debt, which effectively lowered corporate borrowing
costs, improved covenant flexibility and extended debt maturities. When comparing
results between the two periods, excluding the impact of debt charges in 2007, the
Company’s 2008 first quarter net earnings of $0.92 per diluted share compare favorably
to the prior year adjusted result of $0.60 per diluted share. In comparison, the first
quarter of 2008 benefited primarily from lower expenses related to interest and taxes,
together with higher product volumes and the non-recurrence of certain other expenses
that impacted the 2007 period.
“We have consistently pursued business strategies that improve TRW’s long-term
competitiveness, which has helped the Company overcome difficult industry conditions
and is reflected in our solid first quarter performance,” said John Plant, president and
chief executive officer.
1

3. “These strategies focus efforts on improving our global market position in safety,
pioneering innovation throughout the organization and implementing our operating
programs in a manner that optimizes both cost and quality.”
Mr. Plant added, “With respect to innovation, TRW is raising the intelligence of safety.
Earlier this year we introduced our vision of Cognitive Safety Systems, which embodies
our goal of helping to keep drivers and passengers safer by making vehicles smarter.
Cognitive Safety represents the culmination of new and better technology that
increasingly uses advanced electronics and proprietary algorithms to sense, analyze
and respond to ever-changing conditions. Cognitive Safety focuses attention on our
advanced capabilities and underscores our role as an intellectual partner to our
customers. In doing so, it also raises our confidence in our ability to provide
sustainable long-term growth for the Company.”
First Quarter 2008
The Company reported first-quarter 2008 sales of $4.1 billion, an increase of $577
million or 16.2 percent over the prior year period. Foreign currency translation
benefited sales in the 2008 quarter by approximately $358 million. First quarter sales,
excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, increased approximately $219
million or 6.1 percent over the prior year period. This increase can be attributed
primarily to significantly higher module sales and industry growth in China and South
America. These positive factors were partially offset by price reductions provided to
customers and the continued decline in North American vehicle production, including
the effects of a supplier-related strike that negatively impacted operations at one of our
customers.
Operating income for first-quarter 2008 was $188 million, which compares favorably to
$175 million in the prior year period. The year-to-year increase was driven by a number
of positive factors, including savings generated from cost improvement and efficiency
programs, higher product sales and the non-recurrence of a business disruption that
negatively impacted the 2007 quarter. These factors were partially offset by price
reductions provided to customers, higher commodity costs and the impact of operating
inefficiencies stemming from historically low vehicle production in North America.
2

4. The net impact of foreign currency rate fluctuations did not have a material impact on
operating income in the 2008 quarter. Restructuring and asset impairment expenses in
both years were $8 million.
Net interest and securitization expense for the first quarter of 2008 totaled $49 million,
which compares favorably to $64 million in the prior year. Lower borrowing costs in the
2008 quarter can be attributed to the benefits derived from the Company’s previously
mentioned debt recapitalization and the impact of declining interest rates between the
two periods.
Tax expense in the 2008 quarter was $47 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 33
percent, which compares to $53 million in the prior year period. The effective tax rate in
the 2007 quarter excluding previously mentioned debt retirement charges was 46
percent. The Company expects its full year 2008 effective tax rate to be approximately
38 to 42 percent.
The Company reported first-quarter 2008 net earnings of $94 million or $0.92 per
diluted share, which compares to a net loss of $(86) million or $(0.87) per share in
2007. The 2008 result represents an improvement of $33 million when compared to
2007 net earnings, excluding debt retirement charges, of $61 million or $0.60 per
diluted share.
Earnings before interest, securitization costs, loss on retirement of debt (where
applicable), taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, were $337 million in the
first quarter, which compares to the prior year level of $309 million.
Cash Flow and Capital Structure
Net cash from operating activities during the first quarter was a use of $115 million,
which compares to a use of $221 million in the prior year period. First quarter capital
expenditures were $97 million compared to $119 million in 2007.
As mentioned previously, the Company refinanced substantially all of its debt in 2007.
In the first-quarter 2007, the Company completed its $1.5 billion Senior Note offering
and repurchased substantially all of its then-outstanding Notes through a tender offer.
The Company incurred debt retirement charges related to this transaction of
approximately $147 million in the first quarter of 2007.
3

5. As of March 28, 2008, the Company had $3,164 million of debt and $565 million of cash
and marketable securities, resulting in net debt (defined as debt less cash and
marketable securities) of $2,599 million. This net debt outcome is $254 million higher
than the balance at the end of 2007.
2008 Outlook
The Company increased its full year outlook and now expects sales to be in the range
of $16.2 to $16.6 billion (including second quarter sales of approximately $4.5 billion).
Full year net earnings per diluted share are now expected to be in the range of $2.30 to
$2.60.
This guidance range reflects pre-tax restructuring expenses of approximately $55
million (including approximately $10 million in the second quarter) and an effective tax
rate in the range of approximately 38 to 42 percent. Lastly, the Company expects
capital expenditures in 2008 to be approximately 3.5 percent of sales.

Reconciliation of GAAP Net Earnings (Losses) to EBITDA
(Unaudited)
The reconciliation schedule below should be read in conjunction with the TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.
The EBITDA measure calculated in the following schedule is a measure used by management to
evaluate operating performance. Management believes that EBITDA is a useful measurement because it
is frequently used by securities analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in the
evaluation of companies in our industry.
EBITDA is not a recognized term under GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative to net earnings
(losses) as an indicator of operating performance, or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure
of liquidity. Additionally, EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management’s
discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax
payments and debt service requirements. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this
presentation of EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Reconciliation of GAAP Net Earnings to Adjusted Earnings

In conjunction with the Company’s tender offer and repurchase on March 26, 2007 of its then outstanding
9⅜% Senior Notes and 10⅛% Senior Notes in original principal amounts of $925 million and €200 million,
respectively, and 11% Senior Subordinated Notes and 11¾% Senior Subordinated Notes in original
principal amounts of $300 million and €125 million, respectively, the Company recorded a loss on
retirement of debt of $147 million. This loss included $111 million for redemption premiums paid, $20
million for the write-off of deferred debt issuance costs, $11 million relating to the principal amount in
excess of carrying value of the 9⅜% Senior Notes and $5 million of fees. No tax benefit was recognized
relating to the loss on retirement of debt due to the Company’s tax loss position in the respective
jurisdiction.
The following reconciliation excludes the impact of the loss on retirement of debt.

23. Quarterly Developments
• Cost pressures from commodity inflation continue to intensify:
– Pricing of steel and other commodities expected to worsen significantly during
the remaining quarters
– Gross full year impact now expected at $100 million or higher
– Combination of higher commodity costs and record low production
volumes in North America have increased concerns that supply base
will weaken further
• Labor related issues impacting North American production:
– American Axle strike, now in its 3rd month, hampering vehicle production at GM.
– First Quarter impact of strike was not material to TRW, with approximately $55
million in lost revenue
– Continue to monitor and develop contingency plans to address the potential for
more widespread impact to GM in North America

33. Outlook Discussion
Full Year
• Raised full year sales guidance to $16.2 - $16.6 billion:
– Decline in North American volume expected to be significant with the Big 3
producing nearly 900 thousand fewer vehicles
– Positives include safety content growth, stability in Europe and higher vehicle
volumes in Asia and South America
– Expect lower margin module sales to increase $800 to $900 million in 2008
– Currency effect will provide measurable upside to sales – no material impact to
income expected
• Increased full year earnings to $2.30 to $2.60 per share.
Second Quarter
• Sales increase to approximately $4.5 billion due primarily to currency and modules.
• North American production environment will be difficult. Expect offsets from safety
content growth and strength of overseas operations.
• Restructuring expense of approximately $10 million.

35. Financial
Reconciliations

36. EBITDA Measurement
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial information and reconciliation of GAAP net earnings to
earnings before interest, income tax, accounts receivable securitization cost, loss on retirement of debt, and
depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) should be read in conjunction with the TRW Automotive Holdings
Corp. Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, as filed with the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission.
The EBITDA measure calculated in this presentation is a measure used by management to evaluate operating
performance. Management believes that EBITDA is a useful measurement because it is frequently used by
securities analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our
industry.
EBITDA is not a recognized term under GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative to net earnings
(losses) as an indicator of operating performance, or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of
liquidity. Additionally, EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management’s
discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments
and debt service requirements. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of
EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
