NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

(In Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data)

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of EnerSys (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of adjustments of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K (SEC File No. 001-32253) dated June 20, 2005.

The Company reports interim financial information for 13-week periods, except for the first quarter, which always begins on April 1, and the fourth quarter, which always ends on March 31. The four fiscal quarters in fiscal 2006 end on July 3, 2005, October 2, 2005, January 1, 2006, and March 31, 2006, respectively. The four fiscal quarters in fiscal 2005 ended on July 4, 2004, October 3, 2004, January 2, 2005, and March 31, 2005. Certain amounts in the prior periods’ financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE 2: INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

In August 2004, EnerSys completed an initial public offering (the “IPO”) and issued 12,500,000 shares of our common stock at a value of $12.50 per share. The Company’s Registration Statement (SEC File No. 333-115553) for its IPO was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 26, 2004. The Company’s common stock commenced trading on the New York Stock Exchange on July 30, 2004 under the trading symbol “ENS.” At the completion of the offering, we had 45,945,559 shares of common stock outstanding, which included 11,014,421 shares that were outstanding prior to the IPO, 22,431,138 shares of common stock converted from preferred shares, and 12,500,000 new shares issued in the IPO. The net proceeds from the offering were $139,232. The net proceeds and $1,696 of other corporate funds were used to prepay the entire principal and accrued interest and prepayment penalty on our senior second lien term loan ($123,015) and to prepay a portion ($17,913) of our $380,000 senior secured term loan B.

NOTE 3: NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 151, Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. This Statement amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing,” to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). This Statement requires that those items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of “so abnormal” as defined in ARB No. 43. In addition, this Statement requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 151 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2007. The Company is in the process of reviewing SFAS 151 and has not determined the effects on the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2004, the FASB issued a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”), which supersedes SFAS No. 123 and APB Opinion No. 25. This statement focuses primarily on transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in exchange for share-based payments. The pro forma disclosure previously permitted under SFAS No. 123 will no longer be an alternative to financial statement recognition. Under SFAS 123(R), a public entity generally is required to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for the award of an equity instrument based on the grant-date fair value of the award, with such cost recognized over the applicable vesting period. In addition, SFAS 123(R) requires an entity to provide certain disclosures in order to assist in understanding the nature of share-based payment transactions and the effects of those transactions on the financial statements. The Company is required to adopt the provisions of SFAS 123(R) by April 1, 2006. Under SFAS No. 123(R), the Company must determine the appropriate fair value model to be used for valuing share-based payments, the amortization method for compensation cost and the transition

method to be used at the date of adoption. The permitted transition methods include either retrospective or modified prospective adoption. Under the retrospective option, prior periods may be restated either as of the beginning of the year of adoption or for all periods presented. The modified perspective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested stock options at the beginning of the first quarter of adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), while the retrospective method would record compensation expense for all unvested stock options beginning with the first period presented.

The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS 123(R) and expects to use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value all of its unvested stock options and the modified prospective method in applying the requirements of SFAS No. 123(R) beginning April 1, 2006. The Company expects that adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified prospective method would not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations. See Note 12 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for the pro forma disclosures of the impact of share-based payments as permitted by SFAS No. 123.

NOTE 4: ACQUISITION

On October 11, 2005, the Company completed the acquisition of Gerate- und Akkumulatorwerk Zwickau GmbH (GAZ), based in Zwickau, Germany. The total purchase price net of cash received for this transaction was approximately $2,864 (excluding assumed debt of approximately $761) and was financed using existing EnerSys credit facilities. GAZ is a producer of specialty nickel-based batteries utilized primarily in the energy, rail, telecommunications and uninterruptible power supply (UPS) industries worldwide. The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase and has resulted in the recognition of $1,581 of goodwill in the Company’s financial statements.

On June 1, 2005, the Company acquired the motive power battery business of FIAMM, S.p.A. (FIAMM). This acquisition, which complements our existing European motive power business, has been accounted for as a purchase and has resulted in the recognition of $10,336 of goodwill in the Company’s financial statements.

The Company made initial allocations of the purchase prices at the dates of the acquisitions based upon its understanding of the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities. The Company obtained this information during due diligence and through other sources. In the months after the closings, as the Company obtains additional information about these assets and liabilities, the estimates of fair value will be refined and the allocations of purchase prices will be adjusted. Examples of factors and information that the Company uses to refine the allocations include tangible and intangible asset appraisals and cost data related to business integration. The only items considered for subsequent adjustment are items identified as of the acquisition dates. The results of FIAMM and GAZ have been included in the Company’s results of operations from the dates of their respective acquisitions.

The following table summarizes the aggregate current estimated fair values of the FIAMM and GAZ assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisitions:


	FIAMM			GAZ
Accounts receivable	$	6,529		$	1,901
Inventory		12,052			1,300
Prepaid expenses and other assets		215			45
Property, plant and equipment		14,798			697
Goodwill		10,336			1,581
Other intangibles		5,366			24
Accrued expenses		(11,487	)		(833	)
Other liabilities		(4,956	)		(1,851	)

Net cash consideration	$	32,853		$	2,864

In connection with both acquisitions, the Company formulated a plan for the integration of the acquired business. This process began during the due diligence process and will conclude within twelve months of the acquisition. The Company accrues estimates for certain costs related primarily to the business integration, anticipated at the date of the acquisition, in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 95-3, “Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination.” Adjustments to these estimates are made up to 12 months from the acquisition date as additional information becomes available.

NOTE 5: INVENTORIES

Inventories, net consist of:


	January 1, 2006		March 31, 2005
Raw materials	$	40,551	$	34,710
Work-in-process		43,526		39,628
Finished goods		78,492		71,709

	$	162,569	$	146,047

Inventory reserves for obsolescence and other estimated losses were $12,021 and $9,898 at January 1, 2006, and March 31, 2005, respectively.

NOTE 6: ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVES

The Company accounts for derivative instruments and hedging activities in accordance with SFAS 133 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended by SFAS 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities and SFAS 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (collectively, “SFAS 133”). SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. SFAS 133 requires that all derivatives be recognized as either assets or liabilities at fair value. The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for speculative trading purposes. Derivatives are used to hedge the volatility arising from movements in a portion of the cost of lead purchases as well as to hedge certain interest rates and foreign exchange rate risks. The changes in the fair value of these contracts are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income until the related purchased lead, incurred interest rates or foreign currency exposures are charged to earnings. At that time, the portion recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income is recognized in the Statement of Operations. The amount of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income related to interest rates, lead and foreign exchange contracts at January 1, 2006, and March 31, 2005, net of tax, was an unrecognized gain of approximately $2,259 and $167, respectively.

NOTE 7: INCOME TAXES

The Company’s income tax provisions for all periods consist of federal, state and foreign income taxes. The tax provisions for the third quarter and for the nine fiscal months ended January 1, 2006, and January 2, 2005, were based on the estimated effective tax rates applicable for the full years ending March 31, 2006, and March 31, 2005, respectively, after giving effect to items specifically related to the interim periods. The third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2006 effective income tax rates were 29.1% and 31.9%, respectively. The third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2005 effective tax rates were 35.2% and 35.2%, respectively. These rate reductions are primarily due to a change in the mix of earnings among our various legal entities in multiple foreign jurisdictions, which resulted in a higher proportion of our consolidated earnings being in tax jurisdictions with tax rates lower than our previous global averages, and, for the third quarter of fiscal 2006, a non-recurring $500 tax benefit.

NOTE 8: WARRANTY

The Company provides for estimated product warranty expenses when the related products are sold, with related liabilities primarily included within accrued expenses. Because warranty estimates are forecasts that are based on the best available information, primarily historical claims experience, claims costs may differ from amounts provided. An analysis of changes in the liability for product warranties is as follows:


	Fiscal quarters ended						Nine fiscal months ended
	January 1, 2006			January 2, 2005			January 1, 2006			January 2, 2005
Balance at beginning of period	$	24,459		$	24,109		$	22,786		$	23,249
Current period provisions		4,260			3,109			11,966			10,987
Costs incurred		(3,635	)		(3,018	)		(9,668	)		(10,036	)

Balance at end of period	$	25,084		$	24,200		$	25,084		$	24,200

NOTE 9: RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITY

RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

Restructuring charges reflect the cost reduction programs currently being implemented by the Company. These include the closing of facilities and the termination of employees. Restructuring costs are expensed during the period in which the Company determines it will incur those costs and all requirements of accrual are met. Because these costs are recorded based upon estimates, actual expenditures for the restructuring activities may differ from the initially recorded costs. If the initial estimates are too low or too high, the Company could be required either to record additional expenses in future periods or to reverse part of the previously recorded charges. Asset write-downs, included in restructuring charges, are principally related to buildings, equipment, or inventory that will not be used subsequent to the completion of restructuring plans, and cannot be sold for amounts in excess of carrying value. Other charges represent asset write-offs from impairment testing.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, the Company decided to close and downsize certain existing manufacturing locations in North and South America, reduce product offerings, reduce sales and distribution facilities, and implement other consolidation initiatives. This restructuring activity is more fully described in Notes 3 and 22 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Costs incurred for this activity were $1,412 for the nine months of fiscal 2006. These costs related to ongoing expenses of closing two manufacturing locations. As of January 1, 2006, the reserve balance is $2,954, a small portion of which we expect to spend in the next year and the balance (primarily related to environmental costs) at an indeterminate time in the future.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2006, a restructuring charge of $5,979 (the majority of which relates to the Motive Power segment) was incurred to cover estimated costs in Europe of staff reductions, exiting of a product line, and closing several ancillary locations. The charge comprised $4,569 as a restructuring accrual and $1,410 for a non-cash write-off, primarily of machinery and equipment. As of January 1, 2006, this reserve balance is $3,861, which we anticipate spending primarily during the remainder of fiscal year 2006.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2006, a charge of $1,063 was incurred to cover estimated restructuring programs in Europe related to the newly acquired GAZ facility in Zwickau, Germany. An additional $238 was also provided to cover additional costs, including $111 of non-cash charges, related to the charge taken in the second fiscal quarter of fiscal 2006 described above. It is anticipated that these remaining obligations of $1,190 will be spent primarily in fiscal 2007. Also recorded were other charges of $1,273 representing a non-cash write-off of machinery and equipment based on impairment testing.

A rollforward of these restructuring reserves is as follows:


	Nine fiscal months ended
	January 1, 2006			January 2, 2005
Balance at beginning of period	$	4,766		$	12,063
Current accrual		5,359			—
Costs incurred		(2,032	)		(8,626	)
Foreign currency impact and other		(88	)		—

Balance at end of period	$	8,005		$	3,437

Since the inception of these aggregate reserves, $22,470 of costs have been incurred.

ACQUISITION RELATED RESTRUCTURING

In fiscal year 2002, the ESG acquisition was completed (see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K), in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 the FIAMM acquisition was completed and in the third quarter of fiscal 2006, the GAZ acquisition was completed (see Note 4 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q). Estimates of restructuring actions are recorded at the time of the original acquisition accounting. Adjustments to these estimates are made up to twelve months from the acquisition date as plans are finalized. To the extent these accruals are not utilized for the intended purpose, the excess is recorded by reducing goodwill. Costs incurred in excess of the recorded accruals are expensed as incurred.

During the nine months of fiscal 2006, the Company incurred costs of $3,169 (related to the reserves established in fiscal year 2002) primarily for employee termination payments in Germany. The balance of this reserve at January 1, 2006, is $11,529, of which we anticipate spending approximately half during the next 15 months (primarily for employee termination payments and the cancellation of a German steam generation plant contract) and the balance (primarily related to environmental costs) at an indeterminate time in the future.

During the first half of fiscal 2006, the estimated reserve for restructuring activity related to the FIAMM acquisition was established at $9,000 (in the first fiscal quarter) and reduced by $3,132 in the nine months of the fiscal year. The current estimated total costs of $5,868 include $2,661 related to the termination of 127 manufacturing, selling and distribution employees, and the balance of $3,207 for plant and warehouse closure costs, including lease terminations. During the second and third quarters of fiscal 2006, the Company incurred costs of $3,495, of which $1,168 was for the termination of 115 of those employees and the balance primarily for other closure costs in our Italian and U.K. facilities. The balance of this reserve at January 1, 2006, is $2,259, which we anticipate spending primarily during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006.

A rollforward of these restructuring reserves is as follows:


	Nine fiscal months ended
	January 1, 2006			January 2, 2005
Balance at beginning of period	$	15,971		$	38,344
Current accrual		9,000			—

Foreign currency impact and other		(1,387	)		(1,092	)

Balance at end of period	$	13,788		$	24,615

Since inception of these aggregate restructuring reserves, $41,728 of costs have been incurred.

NOTE 10: DEBT

On June 15, 2005, the Company entered into a Euro €25,000 Credit Facility Agreement among EnerSys Holdings (Luxembourg), S.a.r.l., SanPaolo IMI S.p.A., as Facility Agent and lender, and Banca Intesa S.p.A., as lender (the “Euro Credit Agreement”). The proceeds from the Euro Credit Agreement were used to reduce the outstanding balance of the U.S. Credit Agreement that was utilized as bridge financing for the June 1, 2005, acquisition of the motive power battery business of FIAMM S.p.A. The Euro Credit Agreement matures on June 30, 2011, and is subject to quarterly principal amortization beginning March 31, 2007. Obligations under the Euro Credit Agreement are secured by a pledge of the shares of our Italian subsidiary and guaranty from EnerSys Capital Inc., a subsidiary of the Company. Borrowings under the Euro Credit Agreement bear interest at a floating rate based upon a EURIBOR rate plus an applicable percentage. Company debt is more fully described in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

NOTE 11: PENSIONS

The following table presents the components of the Company’s net periodic benefit cost related to its defined benefit pension plans. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year disclosures to conform to the current year presentation.

Rate of compensation increase	N/A		N/A		1.0-4.0	%	2.5-3.8	%

NOTE 12: STOCK PLANS

At January 1, 2006, under the Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the Company approved a grant of 224,143 shares of restricted stock at the fair market value on that date of $13.04 per share. This resulted in the recording of unearned stock grant compensation of $2,923 in the equity section of the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Compensation expense for these restricted shares will be charged to earnings over a four-year period.

The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation as amended, to options granted under the stock option plan. For purposes of this pro forma disclosure, the estimated value of the options is amortized ratably to expense over the options’ vesting periods. Because the estimated value is determined as of the date of grant, the actual value ultimately realized by the employee may be significantly different.

Weighted average fair value of options granted during the period		N/A			N/A		$	6.07		$	2.52

NOTE 13: EARNINGS PER SHARE

Net earnings per share – basic is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Net earnings per share – diluted reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options were exercised. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for description of the effect of the IPO on shares outstanding. Weighted average common shares and common shares – diluted were as follows:


	Fiscal quarters ended		Nine fiscal months ended
	January 1, 2006	January 2, 2005	January 1, 2006	January 2, 2005
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding	46,249,384	45,954,336	46,210,187	33,205,871
Assumed exercise of stock options, net of shares assumed reacquired	699,668	727,056	527,834	597,470

Weighted average common shares - diluted	46,949,052	46,681,392	46,738,021	33,803,341

At January 1, 2006, and January 2, 2005, there were 2,768,551 and 3,077,538, respectively, outstanding employee stock options that are out-of-the money and therefore were excluded from the calculation of the dilutive effect of employee stock options.

NOTE 14: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is involved in litigation incidental to conduct of its business, the results of which, in the opinion of management, are not likely to be material to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows (see Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K).

NOTE 15: BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The Company has the following two reportable business segments:

The Reserve Power segment manufactures batteries used to provide backup power for the continuous operation of critical systems during power disruptions. They include telecommunications and computer systems, such as process control and database systems. This segment also includes aerospace and defense applications including battery power systems for combat vehicles, commercial and military aircraft, and submarines.

The Motive Power segment manufactures batteries used to power mobile manufacturing, warehousing and other ground handling equipment, primarily electric industrial forklift trucks.

The following table provides selected financial data for the Company’s reportable business segments:

NOTE 16: SPECIAL CHARGES RELATING TO THE IPO

In the nine months results of fiscal 2005, the Company incurred a non-operating special charge of $6.0 million for the write-off of a portion of unamortized deferred finance costs and a prepayment penalty on the repayment of its senior secured lien term loan in connection with the IPO.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Reform Act”) provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of EnerSys. EnerSys and its representatives may, from time to time, make written or verbal forward-looking statements, including statements contained in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and its reports to stockholders. Generally, the inclusion of the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “will,” and similar expressions identify statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and that are intended to come within the safe harbor protection provided by those sections. All statements addressing operating performance, events, or developments that EnerSys expects or anticipates will occur in the future, including statements relating to sales growth, earnings or earnings per share growth, and market share, as well as statements expressing optimism or pessimism about future operating results, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Reform Act. The forward-looking statements are and will be based on management’s then-current views and assumptions regarding future events and operating performance, and are applicable only as of the dates of such statements.

Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Although we do not make forward-looking statements unless we believe we have a reasonable basis for doing so, we cannot guarantee their accuracy. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements due to a number of uncertainties and risks, including the risks described in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K and other unforeseen risks. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. These statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise these statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements for a number of reasons, including the following factors:

•

general cyclical patterns of the industries in which our customers operate;

•

the extent to which we can control our fixed and variable costs;

•

the raw material in our products may experience significant fluctuations in market price;

•

certain raw materials constitute hazardous materials that may give rise to costly environmental and safety claims;

•

risks involved in foreign operations such as disruption of markets, changes in import and export laws, currency restrictions and currency exchange rate fluctuations;

•

our ability to raise our selling prices to our customers when our product costs increase;

•

the extent to which we are able to efficiently utilize our global manufacturing facilities and optimize their capacity;

•

general economic conditions in the markets in which we operate;

•

competitiveness of the battery markets in the Americas, Europe and Asia;

•

our timely development of competitive new products and product enhancements in a changing environment and the acceptance of such products and product enhancements by customers;

•

our ability to adequately protect our proprietary intellectual property, technology and brand names;

•

unanticipated litigation proceedings to which we might be subject, the results of which could have a material adverse effect on us and our business;

•

changes in our market share in the business segments and regions where we operate;

•

our ability to implement our cost reduction initiatives successfully and improve our profitability;

•

unanticipated quality problems associated with our products;

•

our ability to implement business strategies, including our acquisition strategy, and restructuring plans;

•

our acquisition strategy may not be successful in locating advantageous targets;

•

our ability to successfully integrate any assets, liabilities, customers, systems and management personnel we acquire into our operations and our ability to realize related revenue synergies and cost savings within expected time frames;

•

our ability to successfully implement a new enterprise resource planning system;

•

our debt and debt service requirements which may restrict our operational and financial flexibility, as well as imposing unfavorable interest and financing costs;

•

adverse changes in our short- and long-term debt levels and adverse changes in the floating interest rates under our credit facilities;

•

our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on our variable-rate debt;

•

our inability to attract and retain qualified personnel;

•

credit risk associated with our customers, including risk of insolvency and bankruptcy;

•

our ability to successfully recover in the event of a disaster affecting our infrastructure; and

•

terrorist acts or acts of war, whether in the United States or abroad, could cause damage or disruption to our operations, our suppliers, channels to market or customers, or could cause costs to increase, or create political or economic instability, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

This list of factors that may affect future performance is illustrative, but by no means exhaustive. Accordingly, all forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty.

OVERVIEW

We are the world’s largest manufacturer, marketer and distributor of lead-acid industrial batteries. We also manufacture, market and distribute related products such as chargers, power equipment and battery accessories, and we provide related after-market and customer-support services for lead-acid industrial batteries. We market and sell our products globally to over 10,000 customers in more than 100 countries through a network of distributors, independent representatives and an internal sales force.

We have two business segments: reserve power and motive power. Net sales classifications by segment are as follows:

•

Reserve power batteries are used to provide backup power for the continuous operation of critical systems during power disruptions. They include telecommunications and computer systems, such as process control and database systems. This segment also includes aerospace and defense applications including battery power systems for combat vehicles, commercial and military aircraft, and submarines.

•

Motive power batteries are used to power mobile manufacturing, warehousing and other ground handling equipment, primarily electric industrial forklift trucks.

We evaluate business segment performance based primarily upon operating earnings. All corporate and centrally incurred regional costs are allocated to the business segments based principally on net sales. We evaluate business segment cash flow and financial position performance based primarily upon capital expenditures and primary working capital levels. Primary working capital for this purpose is trade accounts receivable, plus inventories, minus trade accounts payable and the resulting net amount is divided by the trailing three month net sales (annualized) for the respective business segment or reporting location, to derive a primary working capital percentage ratio. Although we monitor the three elements of primary working capital (receivables, inventory and payables), our primary focus is on the total amount. We closely manage our level of

working capital due to the significant impact it has on cash flow and, as a result, our level of debt. Lastly, on a consolidated basis, we review short- and long-term debt levels, on a daily basis, with corresponding leverage ratios monitored, primarily using debt to EBITDA ratios.

We operate and manage our business in three primary geographic regions of the world—the Americas, Europe and Asia. Our business is highly decentralized with 20 manufacturing and assembly locations throughout the world. Over half of our net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2006 and 2005 were generated outside of North America. Our management structure and financial reporting systems, and associated internal controls and procedures, are all consistent with our two business segments and three geographic regions in which we operate. We report on a March 31 fiscal year.

Our financial results are largely driven by the following factors:

•

general cyclical patterns of the industries in which our customers operate;

•

changes in our market share in the business segments and regions where we operate;

•

changes in our selling prices and, in periods when our product costs increase, our ability to raise our selling prices to pass such cost increases through to our customers;

•

the extent to which we are able to efficiently utilize our global manufacturing facilities and optimize their capacity;

•

the extent to which we can control our fixed and variable costs, including those for our raw materials, manufacturing and distribution, operating activities and interest; and

•

changes in our short- and long-term debt levels and changes in the floating interest rates under our credit facilities.

Due to competitive pressures, we have been subjected to continual and significant pricing pressures over the past several years. We anticipate heightened competitive pricing pressure as Chinese and other foreign producers, able to employ labor at significantly lower costs than producers in the U.S. and Western Europe, expand their export capacity and increase their marketing presence in our major U.S. and European markets. Our ability to maintain and improve our operating margins has depended, and continues to depend, on our ability to control our costs and maintain our pricing. We estimate that selling price increases have resulted in the recovery of approximately 40%, on a cumulative basis for the last seven fiscal quarters since the end of fiscal 2004, of the higher costs of commodities. Our business strategy in this environment of high commodity costs is to improve profitability by cost savings and pricing actions, as well as to tightly control operating cash flow and capital spending.

As more fully discussed elsewhere in this Report on Form 10-Q, we completed the FIAMM acquisition during the first fiscal quarter of 2006 (June 2005) and the GAZ acquisition during the third fiscal quarter of 2006 (October 2005). Net sales attributable to both acquisitions was $21.2 million for our third fiscal quarter of 2006 and $45.3 million for our nine months of fiscal 2006. Additionally, the net earnings impact from both acquisitions was approximately $0.2 million for our third fiscal quarter of 2006 and a net loss of approximately ($0.6) million for our nine months of fiscal 2006.

Net sales increased 17.6% in the third quarter and 16.5% in the nine months of fiscal 2006 over the comparable periods of fiscal 2005. Excluding the effect of foreign currency translation, net sales increased 24.2% or $66.3 million in the third quarter and 18.2% or $145.6 million for the nine months of fiscal 2006 over the comparable periods of 2005. Selling price increased affected both the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2006 net sales by approximately 2%, when compared to the respective fiscal 2005 periods. The strong growth experienced in our Motive Power segment in the prior year continued into the nine months of fiscal 2006. In addition, the impact of the increased sales from the FIAMM acquisition of approximately $19 million is reflected in the Motive Power segment in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 and $43 million for the nine months of fiscal 2006. Our Reserve Power segment achieved a solid third quarter and nine months growth in fiscal 2006 primarily due to improving sales trends for both telecom and UPS battery markets and the strong sales of military batteries, coupled with the impact of approximately $2 million of increased sales from the October 2005 GAZ acquisition. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for descriptions of the FIAMM and GAZ acquisitions.

Both the Americas and Europe regions results showed solid growth in the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2006 compared to the comparable periods of 2005. Our Asia sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 increased 21.5% in comparison to the third quarter of fiscal 2005 as a result of a greater focus on growth opportunities throughout the region. However, our Asia sales in the nine months of fiscal 2006 increased only 4.6% in comparison to the nine months of fiscal 2005 as a result of unusually weak telecom battery sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2006.

GROSS PROFIT


	Fiscal quarter ended January 1, 2006				Fiscal quarter ended January 2, 2005				Increase
	In Millions		Percentage of Total Net Sales		In Millions		Percentage of Total Net Sales		In Millions		Percentage
Gross profit	$	69.6	21.6	%	$	60.4	22.1	%	$	9.2	15.2	%

Gross profit	$	200.3	21.5	%	$	188.2	23.6	%	$	12.1	6.4	%

Gross profit increased 15.2% in the third quarter and 6.4% in the nine months of fiscal 2006 compared to fiscal 2005. Gross profit, excluding the effect of foreign currency translation, increased 20.9% or $12.6 million in the third quarter and 7.9% or $14.9 million for the nine months of fiscal 2006 over the comparable periods of fiscal 2005. Gross profit margin declined 50 basis points in the third quarter and 210 basis points for the nine months of fiscal 2006 in comparison to the comparable periods of fiscal 2005. The primary cause of the decline in gross profit margin is attributed to higher commodity and energy costs. Pricing recovery to offset higher commodity costs continues to be challenging, particularly in the Reserve Power segment. Incremental commodity costs in fiscal 2006 compared to the pricing of commodities in the comparable periods of fiscal 2005 were approximately $6 million in the third quarter and $27 million for the nine months. Lead represents our principal raw material and approximates 21% of total cost of goods sold for the nine months of fiscal 2006. The cost of lead continues to increase dramatically and, on an LME basis, as it impacts our income statement, approximates $0.40/lb for the nine months of fiscal 2006 compared to approximately $0.35/lb in the prior year. We continue to focus on cost savings initiatives to help mitigate the rising cost of commodities. Our sales initiatives will continue to focus on improving product mix to higher margin products and implementing sales price increases, the most recent of which were announced in November 2005 and January 2006, to offset commodity cost increases.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses	$	147.1	15.8	%	$	129.7	16.2	%	$	17.4	13.4	%

Operating expenses increased 13.9% in the third quarter and 13.4% in the nine months of fiscal 2006 over the comparable fiscal 2005 periods. Operating expenses, excluding the effect of foreign currency translation, increased 18.6% or $8.2 million in the third quarter and 14.4% or $18.7 million for the nine months of fiscal 2006 over the comparable periods of fiscal 2005. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased 50 basis points in the third quarter and 40 basis points for the nine months of fiscal 2006 in comparison to the comparable periods in fiscal 2005, even as we continued to

experience significant new public company costs relative to the prior year. We continue to focus on expense saving initiatives and on further leveraging the fixed components of our operating expenses. Included in the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2006 operating expenses were public company expenses, primarily those related to compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley legislation, of approximately $2.0 million and $5.0 million, respectively.

Selling expenses, our main component of operating expenses, were 65.4% and 64.9% of total operating expenses in the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2006 compared to 67.3% and 66.9% of total operating expenses in the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2005.

During the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2006, the Company incurred restructuring and other charges of $2.6 million and $8.6 million, respectively, primarily for severance costs related to staff reductions, other restructuring activities in Europe, and the non-cash write-offs of fixed assets based on impairment testing as discussed in Note 9 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.

OPERATING EARNINGS WITHOUT RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

The table below presents operating earnings for the third quarter and nine months of 2006, excluding the restructuring and other charges of $2.6 million and $8.6 million, respectively. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for additional information on management’s use of non-GAAP measures.

Operating earnings increased 3.0% in the third quarter and decreased 23.8% in the nine months of fiscal 2006 compared to fiscal 2005. Excluding the effect of foreign currency translation, operating earnings increased 6.1% or $1.0 million in the third quarter and decreased 22.5% or $13.2 million for the nine months of fiscal 2006 compared to the comparable periods of fiscal 2005. Excluding the third quarter of fiscal 2006 restructuring and other charges, operating earnings were $19.7 million in the third quarter, an increase of 18.7%, and were 6.1% of net sales. This third quarter improvement resulted from improved sales volumes, selling price increases and our continuing cost reduction programs, partially offset by higher commodity and energy costs as discussed above.

For the nine months of fiscal 2006, the $8.6 million restructuring and other charges were substantially identical for both the Reserve Power and Motive Power segments. Excluding these charges for the nine months, operating earnings as a percentage of net sales declined by approximately 150 basis points in the Reserve Power segment and by approximately 160 basis points in the Motive Power segment. For the nine months of fiscal 2006, operating earnings (excluding restructuring and other charges) were $53.2 million, a decrease of 9.1%, and were 5.7% of net sales. In the nine months of fiscal 2006, the earnings improvements from higher sales volume, cost savings initiatives and selling price increases were unable to offset higher commodity and energy costs.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense of $6.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 was $1.2 million higher than in the third quarter of fiscal 2005. Our average debt outstanding was $414.3 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2006 as compared to $377.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2005. Our average interest rate incurred in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 was 5.84% compared to 4.86% in the third quarter of fiscal 2005. Included in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 and 2005 interest expense are non-cash charges of $0.4 and $0.3 million, respectively, for deferred financing fees. The increase in interest expense in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 is attributed primarily to higher interest rates on variable rate borrowings in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2005 and the increased indebtedness of approximately $39 million from the FIAMM and GAZ acquisitions (including cash restructuring incurred since the acquisition).

Interest expense of $18.5 million for the nine months of fiscal 2006 (net of interest income of $0.3 million) increased $0.1 million as compared to the comparable period of fiscal 2005. Our average debt outstanding was $411.1 million for the nine months of fiscal 2006 as compared to $446.1 million for the comparable period of fiscal 2005. Our average interest rate incurred in the nine months of fiscal 2006 was 5.60% compared to 4.88% in the comparable period of fiscal 2005. Included in the nine months of fiscal 2006 and 2005 interest expense are non-cash charges of $1.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively, for deferred financing fees. Increases in interest expense resulting from higher interest rates on variable rate

borrowings in the nine months of fiscal 2006 compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2005 and the increased indebtedness of approximately $39 million from the FIAMM and GAZ acquisitions (including cash restructuring incurred since the acquisitions), were substantially offset by the impact of the reduction in debt related to the Company’s IPO issuance in August 2004.

SPECIAL CHARGE RELATING TO THE IPO

OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE, NET

Other income of $0.2 million was recorded in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 compared to other expense of $0.9 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2005. This $1.1 million improvement in other (income) expense in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 is primarily attributed to increased foreign currency net transaction gains on certain debt instruments.

Other income of $1.8 million was recorded for the nine months of fiscal 2006 compared to other income of $0.2 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2005. This $1.6 million increase in the nine months of fiscal 2006 is primarily attributed to an increase in foreign currency net transaction gains on certain debt instruments.

EARNINGS BEFORE INCOME TAXES

As a result of the factors discussed above, earnings before income taxes increased $0.5 million in the third quarter and decreased $6.3 million for the nine months of fiscal 2006 compared to the comparable periods in fiscal 2005.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE

The third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2006 effective tax rates were 29.1% and 31.9%, respectively, compared to 35.2% and 35.2%, respectively, in the comparable periods in fiscal 2005. These rate reductions are primarily due to a change in the mix of earnings among our various legal entities in multiple foreign jurisdictions, which resulted in a higher proportion of our consolidated earnings being in tax jurisdictions with tax rates lower than our previous global averages, and, for the third quarter of fiscal 2006, a non-recurring $0.5 million tax benefit.

NET EARNINGS AVAILABLE TO COMMON SHAREHOLDERS

As a result of the factors discussed above, third quarter fiscal 2006 net earnings of $7.8 million (2.4% of net sales) were above the third quarter fiscal 2005 net earnings of $6.8 million (2.5% of net sales) by $1.0 million or 14.7%. The nine months of fiscal 2006 net earnings of $19.0 million (2.0% of net sales) were below the comparable period of fiscal 2005 net earnings of $22.2 million (2.8% of net sales) by $3.2 million or (14.4)%.

Net earnings per common share in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 (both for basic and diluted) increased to $0.17 from $0.15 (for basic) and $0.14 (for diluted) in the third fiscal quarter of 2005. Net earnings per common share (both for basic and diluted) for the nine months of fiscal 2006 decreased to $0.41 from $0.42 for the comparable period of fiscal 2005. Preferred stock was converted to common stock in connection with the August 2004 IPO and as a result the Series A convertible preferred stock dividends were discontinued during the second fiscal quarter of 2005.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This report contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). EnerSys’ management uses non-GAAP measures in their analysis of the Company’s performance. These measures, as used by EnerSys, adjust net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP to reflect changes in financial results associated primarily with our IPO and our restructuring initiatives. Management believes presentations of financial measures reflecting these adjustments provide important supplemental measurement information in evaluating the operating results of our business as distinct from results that include items that are not indicative of ongoing operating results; in particular, the charges that the Company incurs as a result of restructuring activities associated with our

acquisitions. Because these charges are incurred as a result of an acquisition, they are not a valid measure of the performance of our underlying business. These disclosures have limitations as an analytical tool, should not be viewed as a substitute for net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Management believes that this pro forma supplemental information will be helpful in understanding the Company’s ongoing operating results. This supplemental presentation should not be construed as an inference that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by similar adjustments to net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP.

Pro forma net earnings are calculated giving effect to the IPO as if it occurred as of the beginning of the pro forma periods presented, and excluding restructuring and other charges. Pro forma basic and diluted weighted-average share amounts are calculated as of the IPO date for the fiscal 2005 periods. The following tables provide additional information regarding certain non-GAAP measures.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Operating activities provided cash of $24.7 million for the nine months ended January 1, 2006, and $14.7 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2005. This $10.0 million increase was due primarily to the positive impacts of an increase of $2.9 million in net earnings adjusted for non-cash items, a reduction of $12.6 million in spending for restructuring, and an increased source of $4.6 million from other items, primarily lower spending against accrued expenses and other liabilities in the nine months of fiscal 2006 compared to the same period of fiscal 2005. These positive impacts were substantially offset by the negative impact of a $10.1 million increased use of cash for primary working capital.

Primary working capital was $314.7 million (yielding a primary working capital percentage of 24.4%) at January 1, 2006 and $282.4 million (yielding a primary working capital percentage ratio of 24.7%) at March 31, 2005. The modest decrease in the working capital percentage since the end of fiscal 2005 is within the normal range of fluctuations in our primary working capital.

Investing activities used cash of $66.9 million for the nine months ended January 1, 2006, compared to cash used of $20.7 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2005. This change was primarily due to cash paid of $35.7 million for the FIAMM and GAZ acquisitions. Capital expenditures of $29.6 million were $6.2 million higher in the nine months of fiscal 2006 compared to the comparable period of fiscal 2005. The higher level of capital spending was primarily related to selected capacity expansion projects and new products.

Financing activities provided cash of $32.3 million for the nine months of fiscal 2006, as compared to cash provided of $3.6 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2005. This change is primarily attributed to the new debt financing of €25.0 million (approximately $29.9 million) related to the FIAMM acquisition.

All obligations under our U.S. Credit Agreement are secured by, among other things, substantially all of our U.S. assets. All obligations under our Euro Credit Agreement are secured by a pledge of the shares of our Italian subsidiary and a guaranty of our subsidiary, EnerSys Capital Inc. Our U.S. and Euro Credit Agreements contain various covenants which, absent prepayment in full of the indebtedness and other obligations, or the receipt of waivers, limit our ability to conduct certain specified business transactions, buy or sell assets out of the ordinary course of business, engage in sale and leaseback transactions, pay dividends and take certain other actions.

We currently are in compliance with all covenants and conditions under our credit agreements. Since we believe that we will continue to comply with these covenants and conditions, we believe that we have adequate availability of funds to meet our cash requirements. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2005, for a detailed description of debt.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

EnerSys’ cash flows and earnings are subject to fluctuations resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and raw material costs. We manage our exposure to these market risks through internally established policies and procedures and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. EnerSys’ policy does not permit speculation in derivative instruments for profit or execution of derivative instrument contracts for which there are no underlying exposures. We do not use financial instruments for trading purposes and are not a party to any leveraged derivatives. We monitor our underlying market risk exposures on an ongoing basis and believe that we can modify or adapt our hedging strategies as needed.

We are exposed to changes in variable interest rates on borrowings under our credit agreements. On a selective basis, from time to time, we enter into interest rate swap agreements to reduce the negative impact that increases in interest rates could have on our outstanding variable debt.

In February 2001, we entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix the interest rate on $60.0 million of our floating rate debt through February 22, 2006, at 5.59% per year plus an applicable credit spread. In April and May 2004, we amended these agreements to extend the maturity to February 22, 2008, and reduce the fixed rate to 5.16% per year plus an applicable credit spread beginning May 24, 2004.

In April 2004, we entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix interest rates on an additional $60.0 million of floating rate debt through May 5, 2008. The fixed rates per year plus an applicable credit spread began May 5, 2004, and are 2.85% during the first year, 3.15% the second year, 3.95% the third year, and 4.75% in the fourth year, which averages 3.68% for the four-year period.

In August 2004, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to fix interest rates on an additional $8.0 million of floating rate debt through May 5, 2008. The fixed rates per year began November 5, 2004, and are 2.85% during the first half of the year, 3.15% the second year, 3.95% the third year and 4.20% in the fourth year, which averages 3.64% for the three and one-half year period.

In October 2005, we entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix interest rates on an additional $75.0 million of floating rate debt through December 22, 2010. The fixed rates per year plus an applicable credit spread began December 22, 2005, and are 4.25% during the first year, 4.525% the second year, 4.80% the third year, 5.075% the fourth year, and 5.47% in the fifth year, which averages 4.82% for the five-year period.

A 100 basis point increase in interest rates would increase interest expense by approximately $2.0 million.

We have a significant risk in our exposure to certain raw materials, which we estimate were approximately half of total cost of goods sold for the nine months of fiscal 2006 and 2005.

Our largest single raw material cost is lead, for which the cost remains volatile. To mitigate against large changes in cost, we enter into contracts with financial institutions to hedge the price of lead. Each contract is for a period not extending beyond one year. Under these contracts, we were committed to the purchase price of the following amounts of lead:


Date	$’s (in millions)		# Pounds (in millions)	Average Cost/Pound		Approximate % of Lead Purchases ⁽¹⁾
January 1, 2006	$	8.6	21.9	$	0.39	6	%
March 31, 2005		8.0	21.1		0.38	6	%
January 2, 2005		21.8	60.3		0.36	17	%

⁽¹⁾	Based on estimated annual purchases for the period then ended.

As of January 1, 2006, primarily due to our FIFO accounting method, we expect that our cost of lead that will impact our income statement for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 will be approximately $0.43/lb.

We estimate that a 10% increase in lead cost over our estimated cost in fiscal 2006 would increase our annual total cost of goods sold by approximately $18 million.

Additionally, because the Company reports its financial statements in U.S. dollars, our financial results are affected by the strength of the currencies in countries where it has operations relative to the strength of the U.S. dollar. The principal foreign currencies in which the Company conducts business are the euro, British pound, Polish zloty, Mexican peso, Canadian dollar and Chinese renminbi.

We are also exposed to foreign currency exchange rates. Our largest exposure is from the purchase and conversion of U.S. dollar based lead costs into local currencies in Europe, China and Mexico. Additionally, we have currency exposures from intercompany trade transactions. To hedge these exposures we have entered into forward contracts with financial institutions. Each contract is for a period not extending beyond one year. As of January 1, 2006, March 31, 2005 and January 2, 2005, we had entered into a total of $34.8 million, $0 and $0 forward contracts, respectively, as follows:


Date	Currency Hedged	$US Equivalent (in millions)		Average Rate Hedged
January 1, 2006	euro	$	22.3	1.24
January 1, 2006	UK pound		4.0	1.78
January 1, 2006	Polish zloty		3.5	4.08
January 1, 2006	Canadian dollars		5.0	1.22

	Total	$	34.8

Based primarily on statistical currency correlations on the Company’s exposures in fiscal 2005, we are highly confident that the pretax effect on our annual earnings of changes in the principal currencies in which we conduct our business would not be in excess of approximately $4 million in more than one year out of twenty years.

Foreign exchange translation adjustments are recorded on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Comprehensive Income.
