BURR RIDGE, IL. — (January 27, 2011) — CNH Global N.V. (NYSE: CNH) today announced financial results for the year ended December 31, 2010. For the year, net sales increased 13% (11% on a constant currency basis) to $14.5 billion on the back of improving demand for agricultural equipment driven by increased prices in global agricultural commodities and construction equipment demand in the Americas and Rest of World markets. Equipment Operations posted an Operating Profit of $889 million as a result of these higher volumes, increased industrial utilization in the Americas, and improved product mix. This positive performance was tempered by Western Europe markets remaining at low demand levels, increased raw material prices, and new product launch costs primarily in the construction equipment sector during the fourth quarter.

Net sales were 80% agricultural equipment and 20% construction equipment for the year. The geographical distribution of revenue for the period was 41% North America, 23% Western Europe, 19% Latin America, and 17% Rest of World markets.

Equipment Operations generated $1.8 billion in cash flows from operations for the year including a $323 million reduction of net inventory. Year to date capital expenditures totaled $301 million, a 39% increase from the comparable period largely as a result of new product launches; 80% of the full year capital spend was on new products and production capacity. CNH's Equipment Operations ended the period with a net cash position of $2.2 billion. The effective tax rate for 2010 was 19%, which was favorably impacted by the settlement of certain tax items in the fourth quarter and certain valuation allowances. The Group expects to return to a more normalized effective tax rate of 36% to 40% in 2011.

Net income before restructuring and exceptional items for the period was $496 million as a result of improved top line and industrial operating performance, better results from the Group's non-consolidated entities, and a lower tax rate. This resulted in the Group generating a significant increase in full year diluted earnings per share to $2.08 (before restructuring and exceptional items) compared to a loss of $0.48 per share in 2009.

2011 Market Outlook

CNH anticipates that in 2011 the global agricultural markets will be flat to up 5% in tractors and up 5-10% in combines; in the global construction equipment market CNH's outlook for 2011 is for an increase of between 8-12% in light equipment and 5-10% in heavy equipment.

2011 CNH Outlook

CNH expects to outperform the market in unit growth as a result of new product launches, geographic footprint diversification, and heavy equipment bias in the agricultural sector resulting in an increased operating profit and margin from volume and industrial leverage.

 

   

Revenues on a constant currency basis are expected to be up by as much as 10% compared to the full year 2010.

 

   

Operating margin is expected to be between 7.1% and 7.9% consistent with our Strategic Business Plan.

Agricultural Equipment Industry and Market

Worldwide agricultural industry unit sales increased 12% compared to the fourth quarter of 2009. Global tractor sales grew 12% while global combine sales grew 16% for the quarter. North American tractor sales were up 17% and combine sales up 28% on continued strong demand from the large cash crop segments. Latin America sales of tractors declined 6% and combine sales were up 16%. Western European markets improved for the quarter, with tractor sales up 12% and combine sales flat. Rest of World markets were up 13% in tractor sales and flat in combine sales. Global unit sales of tractors and combines for full year 2010 were up 8% and 2%, respectively.

CNH Agricultural Equipment Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results

CNH’s net sales in the agricultural equipment sector increased 8% for the year (6% on a constant currency basis) as a result of solid trading conditions in the Americas due to increasing commodity prices and good harvest conditions. Trading conditions in Europe were more difficult, largely due to poor harvest conditions in certain countries and tight credit markets. Operating margin increased 22% to 8.2% on the higher unit volume driving manufacturing efficiency, and improved product mix to larger horsepower tractor and combine segments. Common platform design and low cost sourcing and localization initiatives continued apace with important projects approved for capacity expansions of whole goods and component parts started in the Group's Brazil and India operations.

Full year market share for the Group was largely in line with prior year in tractors and up approximately 2% in combines. Worldwide production was matched (+1%) with retail deliveries for the year as inventory levels were sufficient to accommodate transition stocks for new product launches.

Company and dealer inventories ended the period either in line with or below industry averages largely driven by strong demand in North America in Q4, partly influenced by preferential tax legislation, and selective production curtailments in Brazil to level load inventories for the year end. The Group's European industrial footprint remained at reduced activity levels due to slow market conditions and to allow for finished goods inventory reduction targets to be realized; industrial activity in Europe is forecast to increase in 2011.

Construction Equipment Industry and Market

Global construction equipment industry unit sales rose 35% in the fourth quarter compared to the prior year, with light equipment up 36% and heavy equipment up 35%. North American demand was up 34%, with light equipment volumes up 34% and heavy equipment rising 33%. Western European markets rose 21% as the industry began to rebuild from the prior year's low levels. In Latin America, the market was up 53%, driven by strong demand from projects in both the public and private sectors. Industry sales in Rest of World markets rose 38% with continued strong demand in the Asia-Pacific region, primarily the heavy equipment segment in China. For the full year, light equipment unit sales were up 35% and heavy equipment unit sales were up 59%.

CNH Construction Equipment Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results

Full year 2010, net sales in the construction equipment sector grew 39% (35% on a constant currency basis) as a result of significant market improvements in the Latin American and Asian markets, and from the improvement in conditions in the North American market largely as a result of ageing fleet replacements. Operating profit for the year improved by $285

million to $(54) million due to increased production, wholesale unit increases (+50%), and reduced costs from prior period restructuring initiatives. In an improved sales environment, net inventory was reduced by 29% as a result of a focused effort to improve the ageing profile of the company and dealers’ inventories in preparation for product launches initiated in Q4, which continue through 2011. During the period, primarily Q4, significant new product launch costs were incurred as several important product lines were re-tooled for the launch of new products into our dealer network.

Full year market share was flat to prior year across all segments with the exception of Latin America, which was down due to industrial capacity constraints in both the heavy and light segments. Capacity expansion plans have been initiated for two facilities to accommodate future market growth and in order to meet manufacturing localization targets.

Company and dealer inventories ended either in line with or below industry levels for the year. Worldwide production lagged retailed units by 13% to allow for de-stocking initiatives to be completed, and as a result of product launch related capacity losses. The Group expects production units to increase across the Group's industrial footprint in 2011 under current market demand estimates.

During 2010, four new N Series loader backhoes in North America and a range of four Construction King T Series tractor loader backhoes in Europe were launched under the Case Construction brand. Better Roads magazine named the Case 650L crawler dozer one of the “Top 20 Rollouts". Specialized magazines honored Case Construction with an “Excellence in Equipment Engineering” award in the loader backhoe category for the 590 Super M+ Series 3 loader backhoe and a recognition for the joystick steering in its Case E Series wheel loaders.

The first three models of the new range of wheeled excavators, the WE150, WE170 and WE190, were launched by the New Holland Construction brand. The brand also introduced the new E10SR, the smallest mini-excavator in its range. US magazine Construction Equipment named the New Holland Construction B Series loader backhoe as one of the Top 100 Products of 2009.

Market conditions continued to improve in North America in both the agricultural and construction equipment sectors while Europe stabilized in the second half of 2010. Full-year results were lower mainly due to higher provisions for credit losses

and a higher annual effective tax rate while financial margins improved and general and administrative expenses were maintained at 2009 levels despite the growth in volumes.

At December 31, 2010, delinquent receivables greater than 30 days past due were 5.2% of total managed portfolio, down from 7.4% at December 31, 2009, primarily due to the general improvement in global economic conditions.

Unconsolidated Equipment Operations Subsidiaries

Full year results for the Group's unconsolidated Equipment Operations subsidiaries improved to $88 million from a prior year loss of $46 million. The improved performance was driven across the breadth of the Group's joint venture portfolio with significant contributions from Turk Traktor in Turkey, CNH Mexico, and the Group's two joint ventures in Japan.

Other

Exceptional and Other Items

In Q3 of 2010, the Company completed the redemption of its $500 million in notes due in 2014, and as a result, incurred a pretax loss of $22 million ($14 million after tax) on retirement of debt. The Company disposed of its participation in the LBX joint venture in Q2 of 2010 recording an exceptional after tax gain of $4 million. In Q1 of 2010, the Company incurred $20 million of tax charges due to the impact of the new U.S. Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

CNH utilizes various figures that are “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” as this term is defined under Regulation G as promulgated by the SEC. In accordance with Regulation G, CNH has detailed either the computation of these measures from multiple U.S. GAAP figures or reconciled these non-GAAP financial measures to the most relevant U.S. GAAP equivalent in the accompanying tables to this press release. Some of these measures do not have standardized meanings and investors should consider that the methodology applied in calculating such measures may differ among companies and analysts. CNH’s management believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful supplementary information to investors in order that they may evaluate CNH’s financial performance using the same measures used by our management. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, nor superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

CNH defines “Equipment Operations Gross Profit” as net sales of equipment less costs classified as cost of goods sold. CNH defines “Equipment Operations Operating Profit” as gross profit less costs classified as selling, general and administrative and research and development costs. CNH defines “Equipment Operations Gross Margin” as gross profit as a percent of net sales of equipment. CNH defines “Equipment Operations Operating Margin” as operating profit as a percent of net sales of equipment. “Net Debt (Cash)” is defined as total debt (including intersegment debt) less cash and cash equivalents, deposits in Fiat affiliates cash management pool and intersegment notes receivable. CNH defines “Net income (loss) and diluted EPS before restructuring and exceptional items” as Net income (loss) attributable to CNH, less restructuring charges and exceptional items, after tax. Equipment Operations “working capital” is defined as accounts and notes receivable and other-net, excluding intersegment notes receivables, plus inventories less accounts payable. The U.S. dollar computation of cash generated from working capital, as defined, is impacted by the effect of foreign currency translation and other non-cash transactions. CNH defines the “change in net sales on a constant currency basis” as the difference between prior year actual net sales and current year net sales translated at prior year average exchange rates. Elimination of the currency translation effect provides constant comparisons without the distortion of currency rate fluctuations.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this press release, including statements regarding our competitive strengths, business strategy, future financial position, operating results, budgets, projected costs and plans and objectives of management, are forward-looking statements. These statements may include terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “could,” “should,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “outlook,” “continue,” “remain,” “on track,” “goal," or similar terminology.

Crop production and commodity prices are strongly affected by weather and can fluctuate significantly. Housing starts and other construction activity are sensitive to the availability of credit and to interest rates and government spending. Some of the other significant factors which may affect our results include general economic and capital market conditions, the cyclical nature of our business, customer buying patterns and preferences, foreign currency exchange rate movements, our hedging practices, our customers’ access to credit, restrictive covenants in our debt agreements, actions by rating agencies concerning the ratings of our debt securities and asset backed securities, risks related to our relationship with Fiat Industrial S.p.A., the effect of the demerger transaction consummated by Fiat S.p.A. pursuant to which CNH was separated from Fiat S.p.A.’s automotive business and has become a subsidiary of Fiat Industrial S.p.A, political uncertainty and civil unrest or war in various areas of the world, pricing, product initiatives and other actions by competitors, disruptions in production capacity, excess inventory levels, the effect of changes in laws and regulations (including those related to tax, healthcare, retiree benefits, government subsidies and international trade), the results of legal proceedings, technological difficulties, results of our research and development activities, changes in environmental laws, employee and labor relations, pension and health care costs, relations with and the financial strength of dealers and critical suppliers, the cost and availability of supplies from our suppliers, raw material costs and availability, energy prices, real estate values, animal diseases, crop pests, harvest yields, government farm programs and consumer confidence, housing starts and construction activity, concerns related to modified organisms and fuel and fertilizer costs. Additionally, our achievement of the anticipated benefits of our margin improvement initiatives depends upon, among other things, industry volumes as well as our ability to effectively rationalize our operations and to execute our brand strategy. Further information concerning factors that could significantly affect expected results is included in our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2009.

We can give no assurance that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements will prove to be correct. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. All written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by the factors we disclose that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements.

Forward Looking Statement
This
presentation
includes
"forward-looking
statements"
within
the
meaning
of
the
Private
Securities
Litigation
Reform
Act
of
1995.
All
statements
other
than
statements
of
historical
fact
contained
in
this
presentation,
including
statements
regarding
our
competitive
strengths,
business
strategy,
future
financial
position,
operating
results,
budgets,
projected
costs
and
plans
and
objectives
of
management,
are
forward-
looking
statements.
These
statements
may
include
terminology
such
as
"may,"
"will,"
"expect,"
"could,"
"should,"
"intend,"
"estimate,"
"anticipate,"
"believe,"
"outlook,"
"continue,"
"remain,"
"on
track,"
"goal,"
or
similar
terminology.
Our
outlook
is
predominantly
based
on
our
interpretation
of
what
we
consider
key
economic
assumptions
and
involves
risks
and
uncertainties
that
could
cause
actual
results
to
differ.
Crop
production
and
commodity
prices
are
strongly
affected
by
weather
and
can
fluctuate
significantly.
Housing
starts
and
other
construction
activity
are
sensitive
to
the
availability
of
credit
and
to
interest
rates
and
government
spending.
Some
of
the
other
significant
factors
which
may
affect
our
results
include
general
economic
and
capital
market
conditions,
the
cyclical
nature
of
our
business,
customer
buying
patterns
and
preferences,
foreign
currency
exchange
rate
movements,
our
hedging
practices,
our
customers'
access
to
credit,
restrictive
covenants
in
our
debt
agreements,
actions
by
rating
agencies
concerning
the
ratings
of
our
debt
securities
and
asset
backed
securities,
risks
related
to
our
relationship
with
Fiat
Industrial
S.p.A.,
the
effect
of
the
demerger
transaction
consummated
by
Fiat
S.p.A.
pursuant
to
which
CNH
was
separated
from
Fiat
S.p.A.'s
automotive
business
and
has
become
a
subsidiary
of
Fiat
Industrial
S.p.A,
political
uncertainty
and
civil
unrest
or
war
in
various
areas
of
the
world,
pricing,
product
initiatives
and
other
actions
by
competitors,
disruptions
in
production
capacity,
excess
inventory
levels,
the
effect
of
changes
in
laws
and
regulations
(including
those
related
to
tax,
healthcare,
retiree
benefits,
government
subsidies
and
international
trade),
the
results
of
legal
proceedings,
technological
difficulties,
results
of
our
research
and
development
activities,
changes
in
environmental
laws,
employee
and
labor
relations,
pension
and
health
care
costs,
relations
with
and
the
financial
strength
of
dealers
and
critical
suppliers,
the
cost
and
availability
of
supplies
from
our
suppliers,
raw
material
costs
and
availability,
energy
prices,
real
estate
values,
animal
diseases,
crop
pests,
harvest
yields,
government
farm
programs
and
consumer
confidence,
housing
starts
and
construction
activity,
concerns
related
to
modified
organisms
and
fuel
and
fertilizer
costs.
Additionally,
our
achievement
of
the
anticipated
benefits
of
our
margin
improvement
initiatives
depends
upon,
among
other
things,
industry
volumes
as
well
as
our
ability
to
effectively
rationalize
our
operations
and
to
execute
our
brand
strategy.
Further
information
concerning
factors
that
could
significantly
affect
expected
results
is
included
in
our
annual
report
on
Form
20-F
for
the
year
ended
December
31,
2009.
We
can
give
no
assurance
that
the
expectations
reflected
in
our
forward-looking
statements
will
prove
to
be
correct.
Our
actual
results
could
differ
materially
from
those
anticipated
in
these
forward-looking
statements.
All
written
and
oral
forward-looking
statements
attributable
to
us
are
expressly
qualified
in
their
entirety
by
the
factors
we
disclose
that
could
cause
our
actual
results
to
differ
materially
from
our
expectations.
We
undertake
no
obligation
to
update
or
revise
publicly
any
forward-looking
statements.

Market Share / Market Position Data
-
Certain
industry
and
market
share
information
in
this
report
has
been
presented
on
a
worldwide
basis
which
includes
all
countries,
with
the
exception
of
India.
-
In
this
report,
management
estimates
of
market
share
information
are
generally
based
on
retail
unit
data
in
North
America,
on
registrations
of
equipment
in
most
of
Europe,
Brazil,
and
various
Rest
of
World
markets
and
on
retail
and
shipment
unit
data
collected
by
a
central
information
bureau
appointed
by
equipment
manufacturers
associations
including
the
Association
of
Equipment
Manufacturers’
in
North
America,
the
Committee
for
European

Equipment
in
Europe,
the
ANFAVEA

as
well
as
on
other
shipment
data
collected
by
an
independent
service
bureau.
-
Not
all
agricultural
or
construction
equipment
is
registered,
and
registration
data
may
thus
underestimate,
perhaps
substantially,
actual
retail
industry
unit
sales
demand,
particularly
for
local
manufacturers
in
China,
Southeast
Asia,
Eastern
Europe,
Russia,
Turkey,
Brazil
and
any
country
where
local
shipments
are
not
reported
.
-
In
addition,
there
may
also
be
a
period
of
time
between
the
shipment,
delivery,
sale
and/or
registration
of
a
unit,
which
must
be
estimated,
in
making
any
adjustments
to
the
shipment,
delivery,
sale,
or
registration
data
to
determine
our
estimates
of
retail

data
in
any
period.

Non-GAAP Measures
36
CNH Global N.V. Fourth Quarter 2010 Conference Call – January 27, 2011


Non-GAAP Measures
CNH
utilizes
various
figures
that
are
“Non-GAAP
Financial
Measures”
as
this
term
is
defined
under
Regulation
G
as
promulgated
by
the
SEC.
In
accordance
with
Regulation
G,
CNH
has
detailed
either
the
computation
of
these
financial
measures
from
multiple
U.S.
GAAP
figures
or
reconciled
these
non-GAAP
financial
measures
to
the
most
relevant
U.S.
GAAP
equivalent
in
the
accompanying
tables
in
this
presentation.
Some
of
these
measures
do
not
have
standardized
meanings
and
investors
should
consider
that
the
methodology
applied
in
calculating
such
measures
may
differ
among
companies
and
analysts.
CNH’s
management
believes
these
non-GAAP
measures
provide
useful
supplementary
information
to
investors
in
order
that
they
may
evaluate
CNH’s
financial
performance
using
the
same
measures
used
by
our
management.
These
non-GAAP
financial
measures
should
not
be
considered
as
a
substitute
for,
nor
superior
to,
measures
of
financial
performance
prepared
in
accordance
with
U.S.
GAAP.
Non-GAAP measures include:
Net Income (Loss) Before Restructuring and Exceptional Items
Operating Profit
Net Debt

CNH Global N.V. Fourth Quarter 2010 Conference Call – January 27, 2011


Net Income (Loss) Before Restructuring and
Exceptional Items
38
CNH defines net income (loss) before restructuring and exceptional item as net income (loss)
attributable to CNH, less restructuring charges and exceptional items, after tax. Exceptional items
include charges or income that may mask underlying operating results. We believe that net income
(loss) before restructuring and exceptional items is a useful figure for measuring the performance of our
operations.
