The company recorded $30 million in restructuring charges during the quarter related to its restructuring programs and $2 million in impairment charges. In addition, as a result of the successful refinancing of the company`s debt structure, the company recorded a loss of $24 million in the quarter related to the write-off of the unamortized debt discount on previous debt. When excluding these two items, adjusted net income from continuing operations in Q2 2014 was $50 million.

Powertrain (PT) Division Results
Federal-Mogul`s Powertrain (PT) division continued to gain market share in all regions with revenue of $1.2 billion, an increase of $90 million or 8 percent versus Q2 2013 with negligible exchange impact. Revenue in North America was up 12 percent, while light vehicle production was flat in Q2 2014 and commercial vehicle (CV) production grew by 5 percent. In Europe, Q2 2014 revenue was up 5 percent on a constant dollar basis, compared to a slight increase in light vehicle production of 1 percent in Q2 2014 and a decline in CV production of 6 percent. PT revenue in ROW was up 11 percent on a constant dollar basis, driven by strong sales in China where sales increased by 24 percent compared to Q2 2013. The PT division`s regional revenue rates in all regions grew at a higher percentage than the underlying market production growth rates.
PT Operational EBITDA was $117 million or 10.1 percent of revenue compared to $105 million or 9.8 percent of revenue in Q2 2013 as the PT division benefitted from higher sales volumes and market share gains.
"The improvements in Federal-Mogul Powertrain division`s Q2 revenue and EBITDA were driven largely by volume increases and market share gains across all regions," said Rainer Jueckstock, Federal-Mogul Co-CEO and CEO, Powertrain Division. "We also continue to make operational progress by restructuring and realigning our manufacturing footprint to improve our cost competitiveness."
Motorparts Division Results
Federal-Mogul`s Motorparts division reported revenue of $791 million in Q2 2014 compared to $761 million in Q2 2013, with negligible exchange impact. When excluding the impact of sales related to the Affinia acquisition which closed during the quarter, revenue was essentially flat. Sales in the US and Canada aftermarket increased by 4 percent. This was offset by a 6 percent decline in European sales on a constant dollar basis largely due to general softness in both the aftermarket and OE service channels. Export sales to Venezuela were also lower.
Motorparts Operational EBITDA was $63 million or 8 percent of revenue in Q2 2014, up $6 million from $57 million or 7.5 percent of revenue in Q2 2013. Included in Operational EBITDA for the current quarter were transaction costs of $3 million related to the Affinia and Honeywell acquisitions and $2 million of expenses related to strategic initiatives.
"We continued to make progress on our strategic priorities during the second quarter. Specifically, we secured locations and started the build-out of full product line regional distribution centers in Southern California and Eastern Pennsylvania. We also began implementation of a new, web-based inventory management system; invested in our sales force and technical training programs; and launched a new product development process," said Dan Ninivaggi, Federal-Mogul Co-CEO and CEO, Motorparts Division. "In addition, we completed the Affinia chassis acquisition on May 1 and, shortly after quarter-end, closed the Honeywell brake acquisition. At the same time, we have recruited several new senior executives and streamlined our organizational structure."
