The strength of our customer relationships at this time is very encouraging."
Impact of SFAS 142 Adoption
On January 1, 2002, Federal-Mogul adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 142. Under SFAS 142, companies no longer amortize goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets and are required to perform annual tests of impairment. During the second quarter of 2002, Federal-Mogul, along with the assistance of an outside valuation firm, completed its initial fair-value based impairment test of its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets required by SFAS 142. As a result of these tests, Federal-Mogul recorded a non-cash charge of $1,428 million for the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. The performance of certain operating units and changes in market conditions were the primary reasons for the decrease in certain operating units' fair values that resulted in the impairment charge.
After this non-cash charge, reported six months 2002 net loss was $(17.65) per share compared to $(1.14) per share in 2001.
