a
decline in Drivetrain Remanufacturing segment profit primarily
related to
(i) a reduction in volume of remanufactured engines for certain

remanufactured transmissions resulting from a normalization
of volumes
following last year’s program ramp-up and increase in Honda’s inventory
position and (iii) a reduction in sales for certain
remanufacturing-related services and certain other low volume
remanufacturing programs,

·
|
new
business wins in our Logistics segment, including our test
and repair
programs for Cingular
