The information under Item 4.02(a) Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements
or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review below is incorporated herein by reference.
|
|
|
Item 4.02(a).
|
|
Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
|
On July 23, 2010, as a result of a review of the accounting by Cooper Tire & Rubber Company
(the Company) of Noncontrolling shareholders interests, the Audit Committee of the Board of
Directors and management of the Company determined that its consolidated financial statements
contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 (the Form
10-K) and the consolidated financial statements contained in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
the three months ended March 31, 2010 (the Form 10-Q) will be restated and such financial
statements should no longer be relied upon.
In accordance with applicable financial guidance, a portion of the Currency translation
adjustment recorded in Comprehensive income (loss) and Cumulative other comprehensive loss should
have been allocated to the Noncontrolling shareholders interests in consolidated subsidiaries
which include Cooper Chengshan, Cooper Kenda, and Cooper de Mexico.
The restatement also relates, in part, to the Companys classification of the Noncontrolling
shareholders interest in Cooper Chengshan. The Company classified the Noncontrolling
shareholders interest as permanent equity as of December 31, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 and March
31, 2010. After completion of a recent review, including consideration of the applicable financial
guidance, and evaluation of the agreements related to the Cooper Chengshan joint venture,
management determined that the Noncontrolling shareholders interest in Cooper Chengshan should be
classified as a Redeemable noncontrolling shareholders interest in mezzanine equity on the balance
sheet because, pursuant to the agreements related to Cooper Chengshan, the owners of the
Noncontrolling shareholders interest in Cooper Chengshan had the right to sell and, if exercised,
the Company had the obligation to purchase, the remaining 49 percent Noncontrolling shareholders
interest share at a minimum price of $62.7 million. This put option was previously disclosed in
the footnotes to the financial statements, with a term beginning on January 1, 2009 and continuing
through December 31, 2011.
The restatement will not affect any items in the Companys consolidated statement of
operations, other than the basic and diluted earnings per share. The restatement will have no
impact on the Companys consolidated statements of cash flows as of any date or for any period.
The following table reflects the impact of the allocation of the currency translation
adjustment and the reclassification on the Companys balance sheet for the fiscal years ended
December 31, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 and the three month periods ended March 31, 2009 and March
31, 2010:

In addition to the reclassification of the Noncontrolling shareholders interest in
Cooper Chengshan described above, the Companys management determined that it did not properly
consider the accreted value of the Noncontrolling shareholders interest in Cooper Chengshan.
Because the Noncontrolling shareholders interest in Cooper Chengshan is redeemable at an amount
other than fair value, it is considered a preferential obligation of the Company. Accordingly,
adjustments (accretion only) to the carrying value of the Noncontrolling shareholders interest in
Cooper Chengshan must be considered in Retained earnings shown in the previous table, and in the
calculation of earnings per share. Based on the election by the Company to accrete the carrying
value of this Noncontrolling shareholders interest over time, to the date it became redeemable,
using the interest method, the following table reflects the impact of
this adjustment on Basic and
Diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009 and for the three month
periods ended March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010. There was
no impact to Basic or Diluted earnings
per share for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 (not shown) or the three month period
ended March 31, 2010 (as shown).

The Company will file an amendment to the Form 10-K and the Form 10-Q to restate its
consolidated financial statements included therein and otherwise reflect the adjustments described
above. These filings are expected to be made by the Company on August 4, 2010.
In connection with this restatement for the respective periods referenced above, the Company
has concluded that a material weakness existed in the Companys internal control over financial
reporting. The Company has taken a series of steps designed to improve its control processes.
These actions include a review of the accounting for joint ventures from acquisition to present
with a special focus on changes to reporting guidance that may affect the Companys accounting.
The Company is also implementing measures to enhance the controls by which authoritative guidance
will be monitored and applied on a regular basis. The Company believes that these measures will
appropriately address the material weakness related to the issues described above.
The Companys management and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors have discussed the
matters disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K with Ernst & Young LLP, the Companys
independent registered public accounting firm.
