Standard&amp;Poor's Ratings Services' rating assessment also incorporates Timken's generally moderate financial policies, its meaningful underfunded pension and other postretirement employee benefit (OPEB) obligations. Canton, Ohio-based Timken competes in a large number of niche markets that are collectively valued at an estimated $30 billion. The markets are largely mature, cyclical, fixed-capital-intensive, and subject to intense pricing pressures. Key end markets have mixed outlooks.</spcred:index_entry_excerpt><spcred:index_entry_primcountry

Partially offsetting these strengths are challenges in restructuring certain business lines and improving profitability; intense pricing pressures; and meaningful fixed-capital intensiveness. Standard&amp;Poor's Ratings Services' rating assessment also incorporates Timken's generally moderate financial policies, its meaningful underfunded pension liabilities, and other postretirement employee benefit obligations. Canton, Ohio-based Timken competes in a large number of niche markets that are collectively valued at an estimated $30 billion. The markets are largely mature, cyclical, fixed-capital-intensive, and subject to intense pricing pressures. Key end markets have mixed outlooks.

We have Jim Griffith, the Company's CEO and Glenn Eisenberg, the Company's CFO, and Steve Tschiegg, the Company's IR. And before I start I will tell to Jim that he was right and I was wrong. This goes back to a conversation we had about the performance of the industrial business. Timken is a company -- it's really a tale of two companies. There was an automotive exposure with which the Company sort of struggled and then there's an industrial company, which has performed extremely well in the last quarter, justifying a lot of the effort that was put in expanding capacity there. And top of it, auto did quite a bit better than I expected in the quarter as well. So with that, I will let Jim and Glenn, probably Jim, discuss the Company's outlook and the strategy for going forward. Thank you....

It is good to be here with you.  Just as a word of explanation, this'll be a test flight of the new investor presentation. We had a Analyst Day in Canton about two weeks ago talking about the new segmentation of the company and the change in strategy. And this is a first fly of that in a public forum, so we hope that you'll -- if you have questions that don't come out in the presentation, you'll ask them so that this comes across clearly in terms of the direction we are taking in the market and the potential that has for improved shareholder performance for the company. Obviously, in that sense, it's all covered by the Safe Harbor laws. This is the slide we have traditionally used to describe Timken, and is it a great snapshot of the company. We are a $# billion company, a leader in the markets in which we compete, and with a long and very proud tradition of performance in the market. But, as a snapshot, it misses the velocity...

In addition, we sold Latrobe Steel at the end of #### and have excluded its sales and earnings, which we are treating as discontinued operations. Reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP financial information are included in the appendix at the end of the presentation. Each of our senior executives will be walking you through detailed presentations this morning. As such, our format is to open up discussions with a panel Q&amp;A session at the end with those of you in attendance, and I kindly ask you hold any questions that you might have until then.
