PART I

ITEM 1 – BUSINESS

INTRODUCTION

Titan International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (Titan or the Company) are leading manufacturers of wheels, tires and assemblies for off-highway vehicles used in the agricultural, earthmoving/construction and consumer markets. Titan’s earthmoving/construction market also includes products supplied to the U.S. government, while the consumer market includes products for all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and recreational/utility trailer applications. Titan manufactures both wheels and tires for the majority of these market applications, allowing the Company to provide the value-added service of delivering complete wheel and tire assemblies. The Company offers a broad range of products that are manufactured in relatively short production runs to meet the specifications of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and/or the requirements of aftermarket customers.

As one of the few companies dedicated to the off-highway wheel and tire market, Titan’s engineering and manufacturing resources are focused on addressing the real-life concerns of the end-users of our products. Titan’s team of experienced designers and engineers is working on new and improved engineered products.

In 2008, Titan plans to enter the giant off-the-road (OTR) tire market, which will include 57-inch and 63-inch giant radial tires, the largest tires in the world. To enter the giant OTR tire market, the Company is investing in a large capital expansion project at its Bryan, Ohio, location. The Company has also worked on adding OTR tire capacity through a production realignment of aligning synergies through retooling, retraining personnel and redistribution of equipment.

In 2007, Titan’s agricultural market sales represented 62% of net sales, the earthmoving/construction market represented 33% and the consumer market represented 5% of net sales. For information concerning the revenues, certain expenses, income from operations and assets attributable to each of the segments in which the Company operates, see Note 27 to the consolidated financial statements of Titan, included in Item 8 herein.

COMPETITIVE STRENGTHS

Titan’s competitive strengths include the Company’s strong market position in the off-highway wheel and tire market and the Company’s long-term core customer relationships. These competitive strengths along with Titan’s dedication to the off-highway tire and wheel market continue to drive the Company forward.

Strong Market Position: The Company has achieved a strong position in the domestic market for off-highway wheels, tires and assembly products. Titan’s ability to offer a broad range of different products has increased the Company’s visibility and has enhanced its ability to cross-sell products and consolidate market positions. Innovative marketing programs have strengthened Titan’s image in the marketplace, and the Company is reaching an increasing number of customers in the aftermarket. Years of product design and engineering experience have enabled Titan to improve existing products and develop new ones that have been well received in the marketplace. In addition, Titan believes it has benefited from significant barriers to entry, such as the substantial investment necessary to replicate the Company’s manufacturing equipment and numerous tools, dies and molds.

Long-Term Core Customer Relationships: The Company’s top customers, including global leaders in agricultural and construction equipment manufacturing, have been purchasing wheels from Titan or its predecessors for many decades on average. Customers including AGCO Corporation, Caterpillar Inc., CNH Global N.V., Deere & Company, Kubota Corporation and the U.S. Government have helped sustain Titan’s leadership in wheel, tire and assembly innovation.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

Titan’s business strategy is to enter the giant OTR market, to increase its penetration of the aftermarket for tires, to continue to improve operating efficiencies, to maintain emphasis on new product development and to explore possible additional strategic acquisitions.

Enter the Giant OTR Tire Market: In May 2007, Titan’s Board of Directors approved funding to increase giant OTR mining tire production capacity to include 57-inch and 63-inch giant radial tires. This funding should allow Titan to produce up to an estimated 6,000 giant radial tires a year. These giant tires are in short supply in the mining industry and offer an opportunity for improved margins and greater demand. Titan estimates this may increase sales as much as $240 million on an annual basis. The Company currently plans to be in start-up production of these giant mining tires by the end of the second quarter of 2008.

Increase Aftermarket Tire Business / OTR Realignment: The Company has concentrated on increasing its penetration of the tire aftermarket. The aftermarket in many cases offers increased profit margins and is larger and somewhat less cyclical than the OEM market. The Company’s OTR production realignment was instituted to increase OTR tire production and align synergies at the Company’s tire facilities.

Improve Operating Efficiencies: The Company continually works to improve the operating efficiency of its assets and manufacturing facilities. Titan integrates each facility’s strength, which may include transferring equipment and business to the facilities that are best equipped to handle the work. This provides capacity to increase utilization and spread operating costs over a greater volume of products. Titan is also continuing a comprehensive program to refurbish, modernize and enhance the computer technology of its manufacturing equipment. The Company has centralized and streamlined inventory controls. These efforts have led to improved management of order backlogs and have substantially improved Titan’s ability to respond to customer orders on a timely basis.

Improve Design Capacity and Increase New Product Development: Equipment manufacturers constantly face changing industry dynamics. Titan directs its business and marketing strategy to understand and address the needs of its customers and demonstrate the advantages of its products. In particular, the Company often collaborates with customers in the design of new and upgraded products. Titan will occasionally recommend modified products to its customers based on its own market information. These value-added services enhance Titan’s relationships with its customers. The Company tests new designs and technologies and develops methods of manufacturing to improve product quality and performance. Titan’s engineers are currently working on 57-inch and 63-inch giant OTR tires to be introduced in 2008. Titan’s engineers are also working on a new 15-degree tire and wheel design for OTR and farm radial assemblies, which improve tire and wheel life.

Explore Additional Strategic Acquisitions: The Company’s expertise in the manufacture of off-highway steel wheels and tires has permitted it to take advantage of opportunities to acquire businesses in the United States that complement this product line, including companies engaged in the tire market and companies that have wheel and tire assembly capabilities. In the future, Titan may make additional strategic acquisitions of businesses that have an off-highway focus.

ACQUISITION OF CONTINENTAL’S OTR ASSETS

ACQUISITION OF GOODYEAR’S NORTH AMERICAN FARM TIRE ASSETS

On December 28, 2005, Titan Tire Corporation, a subsidiary of Titan International, Inc., acquired The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company’s North American farm tire assets. Titan Tire purchased the assets of Goodyear’s North American farm tire business for approximately $100 million in cash proceeds. The assets purchased include Goodyear’s North American plant, property and equipment located in Freeport, Illinois, and Goodyear’s North American farm tire inventory. The acquisition included a long-term license agreement with The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company to manufacture and sell certain off-highway tires in North America, which includes the right to use the Goodyear trademark.

AGRICULTURAL MARKET

Titan’s agricultural rims, wheels and tires are manufactured for use on various agricultural and forestry equipment, including tractors, combines, skidders, plows, planters and irrigation equipment, and are sold directly to OEMs and to the aftermarket through independent distributors, equipment dealers and Titan’s own distribution centers. The wheels and rims range in diameter from 9 to 54 inches with the 54-inch diameter being the largest agricultural wheel manufactured in North America. Basic configurations are combined with distinct variations (such as different centers and a wide range of material thickness) allowing the Company to offer a broad line of product models to meet customer specifications. Titan’s agricultural tires range from 8 to 85 inches in outside diameter and from 4.8 to 44 inches in width. The Company offers the added value of delivering a complete wheel and tire assembly to customers.

EARTHMOVING/CONSTRUCTION MARKET

The Company manufactures rims, wheels and tires for various types of off-the-road (OTR) earthmoving, mining, military and construction equipment, including skid steers, aerial lifts, cranes, graders and levelers, scrapers, self-propelled shovel loaders, articulated dump trucks, load transporters, haul trucks and backhoe loaders. The earthmoving/construction market is often referred to as OTR, an acronym for off-the-road. The Company provides customers with a broad range of earthmoving/construction wheels ranging in diameter from 20 to 63 inches and in weight from 125 pounds to 7,000 pounds. The 63-inch diameter wheel is the largest manufactured in North America for the earthmoving/construction market. The earthmoving/construction wheels and tires produced by Titan are sold to OEMs and the aftermarket. Titan’s earthmoving/construction tires range from 30 to 109 inches in outside diameter and in weight from 50 pounds to 6,200 pounds. The Company offers the added value of wheel and tire assembly for certain applications in the earthmoving/construction market.

CONSUMER MARKET

Titan builds a variety of products for all-terrain vehicles (ATV), turf, golf and trailer applications. Consumer wheels and rims range from 8 to 16 inches in diameter. Likewise, Titan produces a variety of tires for the consumer market. ATV tires using the new stripwinding manufacturing process have been introduced to the marketplace, which improves tread durability. Titan’s sales in the consumer market include sales to Goodyear, which include an off-take/mixing agreement. This agreement includes mixed stock, which is a prepared rubber compound used in tire production. For the domestic boat, recreational and utility trailer markets, the Company provides wheels and tires and assembles brakes, actuators and components. The Company also offers the value-added service of a wheel and tire assembly for the consumer market.

MARKET CONDITIONS OUTLOOK

In 2007, Titan experienced strong demand for the Company’s agricultural and earthmoving/construction products. This strong demand is expected to continue into 2008. The strength in the agricultural market is the result of high commodity prices, which have resulted from the continuing increase in the use of biofuels. High prices for metals, oil and gas have created a large demand for the Company’s earthmoving and mining products. The current overall uncertainty in consumer spending resulting from the housing market decline makes consumer market projections especially difficult.

In May 2007, Titan’s Board of Directors approved funding for the Company to increase giant OTR mining tire production capacity to include 57-inch and 63-inch giant OTR radial tires. These tires have an outside diameter of approximately 140 inches and 160 inches, respectively. This funding should allow Titan to produce up to an estimated 6,000 giant radial tires a year. Titan estimates this may increase sales as much as $240 million on an annual basis. The Company currently plans to be in start-up production of these giant mining tires by the end of the second quarter of 2008.

OPERATIONS

Titan’s operations include manufacturing wheels, manufacturing tires, and combining these wheels and tires into assemblies for use in the agricultural, earthmoving/construction and consumer markets. These operations entail many manufacturing processes in order to complete the finished products.

Wheel Manufacturing Process: Most agricultural wheels are produced using a rim and a center disc. A rim is produced by first cutting large steel sheets to required width and length specifications. These steel sections are rolled and welded to form a circular rim, which is flared and formed in the rollform operation. The majority of discs are manufactured using presses that both blank and form the center to specifications in multiple stage operations. The Company e-coats wheels using a multi-step process prior to the final paint top coating.

Large earthmoving/construction steel wheels are manufactured from hot and cold-rolled steel sections. Hot-rolled sections are generally used to increase cross section thickness in high stress areas of large diameter wheels. A special cold forming process for certain wheels is used to increase cross section thickness while reducing the number of wheel components. Rims are built from a series of hoops that are welded together to form a rim base. The complete rim base is made from either three or five separate parts that lock together after the rubber tire has been fitted to the wheel and inflated.

For most consumer market wheels, the Company manufactures rims and center discs from steel sheets. Rims are rolled and welded, and discs are stamped and formed from the sheets. The manufacturing process then entails welding the rims to the centers and painting the assembled product.

Tire Manufacturing Process: The first stage in tire production is the mixing of rubber, carbon black and chemicals to form various rubber compounds. These rubber compounds are then extruded and processed with textile or steel materials to make specific components. These components – beads (wire bundles that anchor the tire with the wheel), plies (layers of fabric that give the tire strength), belts (fabric or steel fabric wrapped under the tread in some tires), tread and sidewall – are then assembled into an uncured tire carcass. The uncured carcass is placed into a press that molds and vulcanizes the carcass under set time, temperature and pressure into a finished tire.

Wheel and Tire Assemblies: The Company’s position as a manufacturer of both wheels and tires allows Titan to mount and deliver one of the largest selections of off-highway assemblies in North America. Titan offers this value-added service of one-stop shopping for wheel and tire assemblies for the agricultural, earthmoving/construction and consumer markets. Customer orders are entered into the Company’s system either through electronic data interchange or manually. The appropriate wheel-tire assembly delivery schedule is formulated based on each customer’s requirements and products are received by the customer on a just-in-time basis.

Quality Control: The Company is ISO certified at all five main manufacturing facilities located in Bryan, Ohio; Des Moines, Iowa; Freeport, Illinois; Quincy, Illinois; and Saltville, Virginia. The ISO series is a set of related and internationally recognized standards of management and quality assurance. The standards specify guidelines for establishing, documenting and maintaining a system to ensure quality. The ISO certifications are a testament to Titan’s dedication to providing quality products for its customers.

RAW MATERIALS

Steel and rubber are the primary raw materials used by the Company in all segments. To ensure a consistent steel supply, Titan purchases raw steel from key steel mills and maintains relationships with steel processors for steel preparation. The Company is not dependent on any single producer for its steel supply. Rubber and other raw materials for tire manufacture represent some of the Company’s largest commodity expenses. Titan buys rubber in markets where there are several sources of supply. In addition to the development of key domestic suppliers, the Company’s strategic procurement plan includes international steel and rubber suppliers to assure competitive price and quality in the global marketplace. As is customary in the industry, the Company does not have long-term contracts for the purchase of steel or rubber and, therefore, purchases are subject to price fluctuations.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

Capital expenditures for 2007, 2006 and 2005 were $38.0 million, $8.3 million and $6.8 million, respectively. The 2007 capital expenditures include $22.1 million for the giant OTR project. The remaining capital expenditures in 2007 were used primarily for updating manufacturing equipment, expanding manufacturing capacity and for further automation at the Company’s facilities. Capital expenditures for 2008 are forecasted to be approximately $55 million to $65 million. Approximately $35 million to $45 million of this amount will be spent on the giant OTR project and the remainder will be used to enhance the Company’s existing facilities and manufacturing capabilities.

PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS

The Company owns various patents and trademarks and continues to apply for patent protection for new products. While patents are considered significant to the operations of the business, at this time Titan does not consider any one of them to be of such importance that the patent’s expiration or invalidity could materially affect the Company’s business. However, due to the difficult nature of predicting the interpretation of patent laws, the Company cannot anticipate or predict the material adverse effect on its operations, cash flows or financial condition as a result of associated liabilities created under such patent interpretations.

MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION

The Company employs an internal sales force and utilizes several manufacturing representative firms for sales in North America. Sales representatives are primarily organized within geographic regions.

Titan distributes wheels and tires directly to OEMs. The distribution of aftermarket tires occurs primarily through a network of independent and OEM-affiliated dealers. The Company distributes wheel and tire assemblies directly to OEMs and aftermarket customers through its distribution network consisting of nine facilities in the United States.

SEASONALITY

Agricultural equipment sales are seasonal by nature. Farmers generally order equipment to be delivered before the growing season. Shipments to OEMs usually peak during the Company’s first and second quarters for the spring planting period. Earthmoving/construction and consumer markets also historically tend to experience higher demand in the first and second quarters. These markets are affected by mining, building and economic conditions.

RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING

The Company’s research, development and engineering staff tests original designs and technologies and develops new manufacturing methods to improve product performance. These services enhance the Company’s relationships with customers. Titan’s engineers are currently working on 57-inch and 63-inch giant OTR tires to be introducedin 2008. Titan’s engineers are also working on a new 15-degree tire and wheel design for OTR and farm radial assemblies. This revolutionary technology will simplify maintenance to minimize downtime, provide better air retention, simplify mounting and increase service life. The Company continues to work on sidewall improvements including the LSW (low sidewall) tire design.

CUSTOMERS

Titan’s 10 largest customers accounted for approximately 47% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to approximately 53% for the year ended December 31, 2006. Net sales to Deere & Company in Titan’s agricultural, earthmoving/construction and consumer markets combined represented approximately 17% of the Company’s consolidated revenues for each of the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006. Net sales to CNH Global N.V. in Titan’s three markets represented approximately 11% of the Company’s consolidated revenues for each of the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s net sales in 2007 or 2006. Management believes the Company is not totally dependent on any single customer, however, certain products are dependent on a few customers. While the loss of any substantial customer could impact Titan’s business, the Company believes that its diverse product mix and customer base minimizes a longer-term impact caused by any such loss.

ORDER BACKLOG

As of January 31, 2008, Titan estimates $208 million in firm orders compared to $171 million at January 31, 2007, for the Company’s operations. Orders are considered firm if the customer would be obligated to accept the product if manufactured and delivered pursuant to the terms of such orders. The Company believes that the majority of the current order backlog will be filled during the present year.

INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, the Company records the Titan Europe Plc investment as an available-for-sale security and reports the investment at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity. The Company’s stock ownership interest in Titan Europe Plc was 17.3% at December 31, 2007 and 2006. The fair value of the Company’s investment in Titan Europe Plc was $34.5 million and $65.9 million at December 31, 2007 and 2006. Titan Europe Plc is publicly traded on the AIM market in London, England.

EMPLOYEES

At December 31, 2007, the Company employed approximately 2,700 people in the United States. Approximately 48% of the Company’s employees in the United States were covered by collective bargaining agreements. In December 2005, the workers at the Des Moines, Iowa, and Freeport, Illinois, facilities ratified new labor agreements through November 2010. The workers at the Bryan, Ohio, facility ratified a new labor agreement in July 2006 with the same November 2010 expiration date. The Company believes employee relations are generally good.

EXPORT SALES

The Company had total aggregate export sales of approximately $77.0 million, $57.4 million and $39.0 million, for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Exports to foreign markets are subject to a number of special risks, including but not limited to risks with respect to currency exchange rates, economic and political destabilization, other disruption of markets and restrictive actions by foreign governments (such as restrictions on transfer of funds, export duties and quotas and foreign customs). Other risks include changes in foreign laws regarding trade and investment, difficulties in obtaining distribution and support, nationalization, reforms of laws and policies of the United States affecting trade, foreign investment and loans and foreign tax laws. There can be no assurance that one, or a combination, of these factors will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to increase or maintain its export sales.

The Company purchases a portion of its raw materials from foreign suppliers. The production costs, profit margins and competitive position of the Company are affected by the strength of the currencies in countries where Titan purchases goods, relative to the strength of the currencies in countries where the products are sold. The Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position may be affected by fluctuations in foreign currencies.

ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS

In the ordinary course of business, like other industrial companies, Titan is subject to extensive and evolving federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations, and has made provisions for the estimated financial impact of environmental cleanup. The Company’s policy is to accrue environmental cleanup-related costs of a non-capital nature when those costs are believed to be probable and can be reasonably estimated. Expenditures that extend the life of the related property, or mitigate or prevent future environmental contamination, are capitalized. The Company does not currently anticipate any material capital expenditures for environmental control facilities. The quantification of environmental exposures requires an assessment of many factors, including changing laws and regulations, advances in environmental technologies, the quality of information available related to specific sites, the assessment stage of the site investigation, preliminary findings and the length of time involved in remediation or settlement. Due to the difficult nature of predicting future environmental costs, the Company cannot anticipate or predict the material adverse effect on its operations, cash flows or financial condition as a result of efforts to comply with, or its liabilities under, environmental laws.

COMPETITION

The Company competes with several domestic and international companies, some of which are larger and have greater financial and marketing resources than Titan. The Company believes it is a primary source of steel wheels and rims to the majority of its North American customers. Major competitors in the off-highway wheel market include Carlisle Companies Incorporated, GKN Wheels, Ltd., Topy Industries, Ltd. and certain other foreign competitors. Significant competitors in the off-highway tire market include Bridgestone/Firestone, Carlisle Companies Incorporated, Michelin and certain other foreign competitors.

The Company competes primarily on the basis of price, quality, customer service, design capability and delivery time. The Company’s ability to compete with international competitors may be adversely affected by currency fluctuations. In addition, certain of the Company’s OEM customers could, under individual circumstances, elect to manufacture the Company’s products to meet their requirements or to otherwise compete with the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will not be adversely affected by increased competition in the markets in which it operates, or that competitors will not develop products that are more effective, less expensive or otherwise render certain of Titan’s products less competitive. From time to time, certain of the Company’s competitors have reduced their prices in particular product categories, which has prompted Titan to reduce prices as well. There can be no assurance that competitors of the Company will not further reduce prices in the future or that any such reductions would not have a material adverse effect on the Company.

NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE CERTIFICATION

The Company submitted to the New York Stock Exchange during fiscal 2007 the Annual CEO Certification required by Section 303A.12(a) of the New York Stock Exchange Listed Company Manual.

The Company has no current plans to restart manufacturing at the storage facilities described in note (a) above.

ITEM 3 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is a party to routine legal proceedings arising out of the normal course of business. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these unresolved legal actions or the range of possible loss, the Company believes at this time that none of these actions, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. However, due to the difficult nature of predicting unresolved and future legal claims, the Company cannot anticipate or predict the material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows as a result of efforts to comply with or its liabilities pertaining to legal judgments.

ITEM 4 – SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

OVERVIEW

Titan International, Inc. and its subsidiaries are leading manufacturers of wheels, tires and assemblies for off-highway vehicles used in the agricultural, earthmoving/construction and consumer markets. Titan’s earthmoving/construction market also includes products supplied to the U.S. government, while the consumer market includes products for all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and recreational/utility trailer applications. Titan manufactures both wheels and tires for the majority of these market applications, allowing the Company to provide the value-added service of delivering complete wheel and tire assemblies. The Company offers a broad range of products that are manufactured in relatively short production runs to meet the specifications of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and/or the requirements of aftermarket customers.

The Company’s major OEM customers include large manufacturers of off-highway equipment such as AGCO Corporation, Caterpillar Inc., CNH Global N.V., Deere & Company and Kubota Corporation, in addition to many other off-highway equipment manufacturers. The Company distributes products to OEMs, independent and OEM-affiliated dealers, and through a network of distribution facilities.

The following table provides highlights for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to 2006 (amounts in thousands):

	2007		2006		% Increase
Net sales	$	837,021	$	679,454		23	%
Gross profit		84,131		72,778		16	%
Income from operations		24,838		22,011		13	%

The Company recorded sales of $837.0 million for 2007, which were 23% higher than 2006 sales of $679.5 million. The higher sales level was attributed to the expanded agricultural and earthmoving product offerings, which includes General branded off-the-road (OTR) tires. The expanded OTR offerings came with the added manufacturing capacity from the Bryan, Ohio, OTR facility, which was acquired in July 2006.

Gross profit was $84.1 million for 2007, compared to $72.8 million for 2006. Income from operations was $24.8 million for 2007 as compared to $22.0 million in 2006. The increases in gross profit and income from operations were primarily due to the higher sales volumes year over year.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Affirmative Preliminary Antidumping Determination on OTR Tires from China

On February 6, 2008, Titan welcomed the U.S. Commerce Department’s preliminary decision to impose antidumping duties on imports of new pneumatic off-the-road (OTR) tires from China. OTR tires are used on construction and agricultural equipment.

As a result of this preliminary determination, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to collect a cash deposit or bond based on these preliminary rates. Commerce preliminarily determined that Chinese producers/exporters have sold new pneumatic off-the-road tires in the U.S. at 10.98 to 210.48 percent less than fair value, with a majority of exporter/producers at 24.75 percent less than fair value.

The agency will now continue the proceeding by holding hearings, conducting verifications of information, and reaching a final determination by early June of this year. The International Trade Commission will also investigate the issue of injury and reach a determination on that issue thereafter.

Titan Builds First Radial 63-Inch Tire

On February 15, 2008, Titan announced that Titan Tire Corporation of Bryan had produced the Company’s first prototype of the giant radial 63-inch tire in its Ohio facility. Titan announced its commitment to produce these giant radial tires, used in the mining industry, in May 2007 when the Company’s Board of Directors approved funding to increase tire production capacity to include 57-inch and 63-inch giant radial tires.

OTR PRODUCTION REALIGNMENT

Due to capacity constraints at Titan’s Bryan, Ohio, OTR tire facility, the Company is adding OTR tire capacity at its Freeport, Illinois, and Des Moines, Iowa, facilities. Titan is aligning synergies, which includes retooling, retraining personnel and redistribution of equipment at the Bryan, Freeport and Des Moines facilities. These OTR realignment costs lowered the Company’s gross profit for 2007 as labor costs that are normally dedicated to making products were instead used for retooling, retraining and redistribution of equipment. In 2007, these costs were approximately $22 million to $24 million.

GIANT OTR MINING TIRES

In May 2007, Titan’s Board of Directors approved funding for the Company to increase giant OTR mining tire production capacity to include 57-inch and 63-inch giant radial tires. This funding should allow Titan to produce up to an estimated 6,000 giant radial tires a year. Titan estimates this may increase sales as much as $240 million on an annual basis. The Company currently plans to be in start-up production of these giant mining tires by the end of the second quarter of 2008.

SENIOR UNSECURED NOTES

In December 2006, the Company closed its offering of $200 million 8% senior unsecured notes. The notes were sold at par and are due January 2012. Titan used the net proceeds from this offering to repay outstanding existing debt, excluding the 5.25 percent senior unsecured convertible notes, and for general corporate purposes.

ACQUISITION OF CONTINENTAL’S OTR ASSETS

On July 31, 2006, Titan Tire Corporation of Bryan, a subsidiary of Titan International, Inc., acquired the off-the-road (OTR) tire assets of Continental Tire North America, Inc. (Continental) in Bryan, Ohio. Titan Tire Corporation of Bryan purchased the assets of Continental’s OTR tire facility for approximately $53 million in cash proceeds. The assets purchased included Continental’s OTR plant, property and equipment located in Bryan, Ohio, inventory and other current assets. The acquisition included an agreement with Continental to use the General trademark on OTR tires. In addition, the Company recorded intangibles related to the acquisition as noncurrent assets and assumed warranty liabilities. This acquisition expanded Titan’s product offering into larger earthmoving, construction and mining tires and added the manufacturing capacity of the Bryan, Ohio, facility.

ACQUISITION OF GOODYEAR’S NORTH AMERICAN FARM TIRE ASSETS

On December 28, 2005, Titan Tire Corporation, a subsidiary of Titan International, Inc., acquired The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company’s North American farm tire assets. Titan Tire purchased the assets of Goodyear’s North American farm tire business for approximately $100 million in cash proceeds. The assets purchased include Goodyear’s North American plant, property and equipment located in Freeport, Illinois, and Goodyear’s North American farm tire inventory. In addition, the Company recorded intangibles related to the acquisition as noncurrent assets. This acquisition expanded Titan’s product offering into Goodyear branded farm tires and added the manufacturing capacity of the Freeport, Illinois, facility.

SENIOR UNSECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTES CONVERSION

In January 2007, the Company filed a registration statement relating to an offer to the holders of its 5.25% senior unsecured convertible notes due 2009 to convert their notes into Titan’s common stock at an increased conversion rate (the “Offer”). Per the Offer, each $1,000 principal amount of notes was convertible into 81.0000 shares of common stock, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $12.35 per share. Prior to the Offer, each $1,000 principal amount of notes was convertible into 74.0741 shares of common stock, which was equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $13.50 per share.

The registration statement relating to the shares of common stock to be offered was declared effective February 2007. In March 2007, the Company announced 100% acceptance of the conversion offer and the $81,200,000 of accepted notes were converted into 6,577,200 shares of Titan common stock. Titan recognized a noncash charge of $13.4 million in connection with this exchange in accordance with SFAS No. 84, “Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt.”

In June of 2005, Titan finalized a private transaction in which the Company issued 3,022,275 shares of common stock in exchange for the cancellation of $33.8 million principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 5.25% senior convertible notes due 2009, as proposed to the Company by certain note holders. Titan recognized a noncash charge of $7.2 million in connection with this exchange in accordance with SFAS No. 84, “Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt.”

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Preparation of the financial statements and related disclosures in compliance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the application of appropriate technical accounting rules and guidance, as well as the use of estimates. The Company’s application of these policies involves assumptions that require difficult subjective judgments regarding many factors, which, in and of themselves, could materially impact the financial statements and disclosures. A future change in the estimates, assumptions or judgments applied in determining the following matters, among others, could have a material impact on future financial statements and disclosures.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method in 2007 for approximately 67% of inventories and the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for approximately 33% of inventories. The major rubber material inventory and related work-in-process and their finished goods are accounted for under the FIFO method. The major steel material inventory and related work-in-process and their finished goods are accounted for under the LIFO method. Market value is estimated based on current selling prices. Estimated provisions are established for excess and obsolete inventory, as well as inventory carried above market price based on historical experience. Should this experience change, adjustments to the estimated provisions would be necessary.

Impairment of Goodwill

The Company reviews goodwill to assess recoverability from future operations during the fourth quarter of each annual reporting period, and whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. The Company’s goodwill was $11.7 million at December 31, 2007 and 2006. Significant assumptions relating to future operations must be made when estimating future cash flows in analyzing goodwill for impairment. Should unforeseen events occur or operating trends change significantly, impairment losses could occur.

Valuation of Investment Accounted for as Available-for-Sale Security

The Company has an investment in Titan Europe Plc of $34.5 million as of December 31, 2007, representing a 17.3% ownership position. Titan Europe Plc is publicly traded on the AIM market in London, England. This investment is recorded as “Investment in Titan Europe Plc” on the consolidated balance sheet. In accordance with SFAS No. 115, the Company records the Titan Europe Plc investment as an available-for-sale security and reports this investment at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Should the fair value decline below the cost basis, the Company would be required to determine if this decline is other than temporary. If the decline in fair value were judged to be other than temporary, an impairment charge would be recorded.

The December 31, 2007, fair value of $34.5 million was below the Company’s cost basis of $40.3 million. The unrealized loss on the Titan Europe Plc investment was $5.8 million. The unrealized loss resulted from decline in the market price of Titan Europe Plc of over 40% in the fourth quarter of 2007. No impairment charge has been recorded as this decline below cost basis was judged to be temporary at December 31, 2007. Should unforeseen events occur or investment trends change significantly, impairment losses could occur. Declared dividends on this investment are recorded in income as a component of other income.

Income Taxes

Deferred income tax provisions are determined using the liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based upon temporary differences between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities. The Company assesses the realizability of its deferred tax asset positions in accordance with SFAS No. 109.

Asset and Business Acquisitions

The allocation of purchase price for asset and business acquisitions requires management estimates and judgment as to expectations for future cash flows of the acquired assets and business and the allocation of those cash flows to identifiable intangible assets in determining the estimated fair value for purchase price allocations. If the actual results differ from the estimates and judgments used in determining the purchase price allocations, impairment losses could occur relating to any intangibles recorded in the acquisition. To aid in establishing the value of any intangible assets at the time of acquisition, the Company typically engages a professional appraisal firm.

Retirement Benefit Obligations

Pension benefit obligations are based on various assumptions used by third-party actuaries in calculating these amounts. These assumptions include discount rates, expected return on plan assets, mortality rates and other factors. Revisions in assumptions and actual results that differ from the assumptions affect future expenses, cash funding requirements and obligations. The Company has three frozen defined benefit pension plans and one defined benefit plan that purchased a final annuity settlement in 2002. Titan expects to contribute approximately $1 million to these frozen defined benefit pension plans in 2008. For more information concerning these costs and obligations, see the discussion of the “Pensions” and Note 20 to the Company’s financial statements.

The effect of hypothetical changes to selected assumptions on the Company’s frozen pension benefit obligations would be as follows (in thousands):

		December 31, 2007		2008
		Increase	Increase	Increase
	Percentage	(Decrease)	(Decrease)	(Decrease)
Assumptions	Change	PBO (a)	Equity	Expense

Discount rate	+/-.5	$(4,688)/$5,119	$4,688/$(5,119)	$(93)/$77
Expected return on assets	+/-.5			$(459)/$459

FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2007, COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2006

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following tables and discussions provide highlights for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to 2006 (amounts in thousands):

	2007			2006			% Increase
Net sales	$	837,021		$	679,454			23	%
Cost of sales		752,890			606,676			24	%
Gross profit		84,131			72,778			16	%
Gross profit percentage		10.1	%		10.7	%

Net Sales

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007, were $837.0 million compared to $679.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. The large sales improvement of $157.6 million, or 23%, for the year ended December 31, 2007, was attributed to the expanded agricultural product offering of Goodyear branded farm tires and the expanded earthmoving, construction and mining product offering of General branded off-the-road (OTR) tires, along with added manufacturing capacity from the Bryan, Ohio, facility, which was acquired on July 31, 2006. In addition, the Company has experienced strong demand in the agricultural segment.

Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

Cost of sales was $752.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, as compared to $606.7 million in 2006. Gross profit for the year 2007 was $84.1 million or 10.1% of net sales, compared to $72.8 million, or 10.7% of net sales for 2006. Due to capacity constraints at Titan’s Bryan, Ohio, OTR tire facility, the Company is adding OTR tire capacity at its Freeport, Illinois, and Des Moines, Iowa, tire facilities. Titan is aligning synergies, which includes retooling, retraining personnel and movement of equipment at the Bryan, Freeport and Des Moines facilities.

These OTR realignment costs lowered the Company’s gross profit for 2007 and for the fourth quarter of 2006, as labor costs that are normally dedicated to making products were instead used for retooling, retraining and movement of equipment. The Company estimates realignment costs to be approximately $22 million to $24 million for 2007 and approximately $9 million to $11 million in 2006.

Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were as follows (amounts in thousands):

	2007			2006			% Increase
Selling, general and administrative	$	53,138		$	45,766			16	%
Percentage of net sales		6.3	%		6.7	%

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $53.1 million or 6.3% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007, as compared to $45.8 million or 6.7% of net sales for 2006. Research and development (R&D) expenses, which are included in SG&A expenses, were $1.7 million and $1.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The higher SG&A expenses for 2007 are primarily the result of the higher selling and marketing expenses related to higher sales and the CEO and executive incentives. Selling and marketing expenses were approximately $5 million higher in 2007, when compared to 2006. Expenses recorded for CEO and executive incentives were approximately $4 million higher in 2007, when compared to 2006.

Royalty Expense

Royalty expense was as follows (amounts in thousands):

		2007				2006				% Increase
Royalty expense		$	6,155			$	5,001				23	%

The Goodyear North American farm tire asset acquisition included a license agreement with The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company to manufacture and sell certain off-highway tires in North America under the Goodyear name. Royalty expenses were $6.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, as compared to $5.0 million in 2006. The increase in royalty expenses is directly attributable to higher sales levels.

Income from Operations

Income from operations was as follows (amounts in thousands):

	2007			2006			% Increase
Income from operations	$	24,838		$	22,011			13	%

Income from operations for the year ended December 31, 2007, was $24.8 million or 3.0% of net sales, compared to $22.0 million or 3.2% in 2006. Income from operations was affected by the items previously discussed in the cost of sales, administrative and royalty line items.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was as follows (amounts in thousands):

		2007				2006				% Increase
Interest expense		$	18,710			$	17,001				10	%

Interest expense for the year 2007 was $18.7 million compared to $17.0 million in 2006. The increase in interest expense in 2007 as compared to 2006 was the result of a higher average interest rate of approximately 1% in 2007. In 2007, the Company capitalized $0.4 million of interest costs for the giant OTR project.

Noncash Convertible Debt Conversion Charge

Noncash convertible debt conversion charge was as follows (amounts in thousands):

		2007				2006				% Increase

		2007				2006				% Decrease
Income taxes		$	3,363			$	3,430				(2	%)

The Company recorded an income tax expense of $3.4 million in 2007 and 2006. The Company’s effective tax rate was (87%) in 2007 and 40% in 2006. The Company’s 2007 income tax expense and rate differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. Federal income tax rate to pre-tax income primarily as a result of the $13.4 million noncash charge taken in connection with the Company’s convertible debt. This noncash charge is not deductible for income tax purposes.

Net (Loss) Income

Net (loss) income was as follows (amounts in thousands):

		2007				2006				% Increase
Net (loss) income		$	(7,247	)		$	5,144				n/a

Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2007, was $(7.2) million, compared to net income of $5.1 million in 2006. Basic and diluted loss per share was $(.28) for the year ended December 31, 2007, as compared to basic and diluted income per share of $.26 in 2006. The Company’s net income and earnings per share decreased due to the items detailed above and as a result of the $13.4 million noncash convertible debt conversion charge.

Agricultural Segment Results

Agricultural segment results were as follows (amounts in thousands):

	2007		2006		% Increase (Decrease)
Net sales	$	515,642	$	421,096		22	%
Gross profit		35,742		42,511		(16	%)
Income from operations		25,324		27,351		(7	%)

Net sales in the agricultural market were $515.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, as compared to $421.1 million in 2006. The increase in agricultural segment sales was the result of increased demand from the Company’s customers, which resulted from record farm income in 2007.

Gross profit in the agricultural market was $35.7 million for the year 2007, as compared to $42.5 million in 2006. Income from operations in the agricultural market was $25.3 million for the year 2007, as compared to $27.4 million in 2006. The decrease in gross profit and income from operations in the agricultural market was primarily attributed to the related disruption to production in Titan’s agricultural products resulting from the OTR realignment initiative.

Earthmoving/Construction Segment Results

Earthmoving/construction segment results were as follows (amounts in thousands):

	2007		2006		% Increase
Net sales	$	277,206	$	183,357		51	%
Gross profit		47,848		28,099		70	%
Income from operations		40,833		21,837		87	%

The Company’s earthmoving/construction market net sales were $277.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, as compared to $183.4 million in 2006. The expanded product offering of the General brand for OTR tires, along with added manufacturing capacity from the Bryan, Ohio, facility and the OTR realignment initiative accounted for the higher sales levels in the earthmoving/construction market in 2007.

Gross profit in the earthmoving/construction market was $47.8 million, as compared to $28.1 million in 2006. The Company’s earthmoving/construction market income from operations was $40.8 million for the year 2007, up from $21.8 million in 2006. The Bryan, Ohio, facility produces OTR tires for earthmoving, construction, and mining machinery in sizes larger than the Company was able to produce before this facility was acquired on July 31, 2006. The increase in gross profit and income from operations in the earthmoving/construction segment is the result of margins realized on these larger earthmoving, construction and mining tires and additional OTR capacity.

Consumer Segment Results

Consumer segment results were as follows (amounts in thousands):

	2007		2006		% (Decrease) Increase
Net sales	$	44,173	$	75,001		(41	%)
Gross profit		3,431		2,771		24	%
Income from operations		2,546		1,655		54	%

Consumer market net sales were $44.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, as compared to $75.0 million in 2006. The Goodyear farm tire acquisition agreement included an off-take/mixing agreement for certain product sales to Goodyear. The decrease in consumer market sales was primarily related to a reduction in sales to The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company of approximately $24 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, as compared to 2006.

Gross profit from the consumer market was $3.4 million as compared to $2.8 million in 2006. Consumer market income from operations was $2.5 million for the year 2007 as compared to $1.7 million in 2006. The increase in gross profit and income from operations in the consumer segment was the result of a shift to higher margin products.

The increase of approximately $5 million in selling and marketing expenses in 2007 as compared to 2006 resulted primarily from the higher sales levels. The increase of approximately $4 million in the CEO and executive incentives is primarily related to the substantial appreciation in Titan’s stock price during 2007. The increase of approximately $6 million in administrative costs in 2007 was primarily related to higher professional fees.

FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2006, COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following tables and discussions provide highlights for the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to 2005 (amounts in thousands):

	2006			2005			% Increase
Net sales	$	679,454		$	470,133			45	%
Gross profit		72,778			64,210			13	%
Gross profit margin		10.7	%		13.7	%

Net Sales

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2006, were $679.5 million compared to $470.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The large sales improvement of $209.4 million, or 45%, for the year ended December 31, 2006, was attributed to the expanded agricultural product offering of Goodyear branded farm tires and the expanded earthmoving, construction and mining product offering of Continental & General branded off-the-road (OTR) tires. These product offerings came with the added manufacturing capacity from the Freeport, Illinois, facility, which was approximately $186 million in 2006, and the Bryan, Ohio, OTR facility, which was approximately $41 million from the acquisition date of July 31, 2006 through December 31, 2006.

Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

Cost of sales was $606.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, as compared to $405.9 million in 2005. Gross profit for the year 2006 was $72.8 million or 10.7% of net sales, compared to $64.2 million, or 13.7% of net sales for 2005. Due to capacity constraints at Titan’s Bryan, Ohio, OTR tire facility, the Company is adding OTR tire capacity at its Freeport, Illinois, and Des Moines, Iowa, tire facilities. Titan is aligning synergies, which includes retooling, retraining personnel and movement of equipment at the Bryan, Freeport and Des Moines facilities. These realignment costs of approximately $9 million to $11 million lowered the Company’s gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2006, as labor costs that are normally dedicated to making products were instead used for retooling, retraining and movement of equipment. These costs resulted in an approximate 2% reduction in the annual gross profit percentage.

Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were as follows (amounts in thousands):

	2006			2005			% Increase
Selling, general and administrative	$	45,766		$	37,006			24	%
Percentage of net sales		6.7	%		7.9	%

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $45.8 million or 6.7% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2006, as compared to $37.0 million or 7.9% of net sales for 2005. Research and development (R&D) expenses, which were previously shown separately, have been combined with the SG&A expenses due to the reduced level of R&D expenditures. R&D expenses were $1.3 million and $0.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. SG&A expenses for the year ended December 31, 2006, were approximately $5 million higher as a result of the Freeport and Bryan acquisitions and their associated selling expenses. However, as a result of the higher sales levels, SG&A expenses decreased by approximately 1% when expressed as a percentage of net sales.

The Company’s profit margins have been negatively affected by the depreciation associated with the idled assets marketed for sale. The Company incurred $3.6 million and $4.7 million in depreciation related to the idled assets for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. This idled asset depreciation, which was previously shown separately, is included in the SG&A expenses. As a result of the Goodyear North American farm tire asset acquisition and the Continental OTR asset acquisition, the Company is placing these assets back into service primarily at the Des Moines, Iowa, Freeport, Illinois, and Bryan, Ohio facilities. Therefore, in December 2006, the idled assets balance of approximately $14 million was reclassified to property, plant and equipment, leaving no balance at December 31, 2006.

Royalty Expense

Royalty expense was as follows (amounts in thousands):

		2006				2005				% Increase
Royalty expense		$	5,001			$	0				n/a

The December 2005 Goodyear North American farm tire asset acquisition included a license agreement with The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company to manufacture and sell certain off-highway tires in North America. Royalty expenses for the year ended December 31, 2006, were $5.0 million. No royalty expense was recorded in the year ended December 31, 2005, as this license agreement was not yet in place.

Dyneer Legal Charge

The State Court of California in 2005 allowed the disbursement of restricted cash funds held in the Vehicular Technologies case. In 2005, Titan recognized the Dyneer legal charge of approximately $15.2 million for the judgment related to this case, which is now closed.

Income from Operations

Income from operations was as follows (amounts in thousands):

	2006			2005			% Increase
Income from operations	$	22,011		$	11,999			83	%
Percentage of net sales		3.2	%		2.6	%

Income from operations for the year ended December 31, 2006, was $22.0 million or 3.2% of net sales, compared to $12.0 million or 2.6% in 2005. Income from operations was affected by the items previously discussed in the cost of sales, administrative, royalty, and legal charge line items.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was as follows (amounts in thousands):

		2006				2005				% Increase
Interest expense		$	17,001			$	8,617				97	%

Net interest expense for the year 2006 was $17.0 million compared to $8.6 million in 2005. The Company’s average debt balances in 2006 were substantially higher when compared to 2005. The average 2006 debt balances were higher with the Goodyear farm asset acquisition of approximately $100 million and the Continental OTR asset acquisition of approximately $53 million. These higher average debt balances in 2006 resulted in an increase in interest expense of approximately $5 million when compared to 2005. The Company’s average interest rates were 7.7% in 2006, compared to 6.2% in 2005, resulting in an increase in interest expense of approximately $3 million.

Noncash Convertible Debt Conversion Charge

In June 2005, Titan finalized a private transaction in which the Company issued 3,022,275 shares of common stock in exchange for the cancellation of $33.8 million principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 5.25% senior convertible notes due 2009, as proposed to the Company by certain note holders. The Company recognized a noncash charge of $7.2 million in connection with this exchange in accordance with SFAS No. 84, “Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt.”

Other Income

Other income was as follows (amounts in thousands):

		2006				2005				% Increase
Other income		$	3,564			$	958				272	%

Other income of $3.6 million in 2006 included (i) interest income of $1.7 million, (ii) dividend income from the Titan Europe Plc investment of $1.3 million, (iii) currency exchange gain of $1.0 million and (iv) other expense of $0.4 million. The $3.6 million of other income in 2006 compares to $1.0 million in 2005.

Income Tax Expense

The Company recorded an income tax expense of $3.4 million in 2006 as compared to an income tax benefit of $13.9 million in 2005. As a result of several years of previous losses, the Company recorded a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax asset, consistent with the Company’s accounting policies. As a result of anticipated utilization of net operating loss carryforward in connection with its future Federal income tax filings, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $13.9 million in 2005 as a result of the reversal of the Company’s valuation allowance in accordance with SFAS 109. The Company’s net operating loss carryforward of approximately $32 million expires in 2023.

Net Income

Net income was as follows (amounts in thousands):

		2006				2005				% Decrease
Net income		$	5,144			$	11,042				(53	%)

Net income for the year ended December 31, 2006, was $5.1 million, compared to $11.0 million in 2005. Basic earnings per share were $.26 for the year ended December 31, 2006, as compared to $.61 in 2005. Diluted earnings per share were $.26 for the year ended December 31, 2006, as compared to $.60 in 2005.

Agricultural Segment Results

Agricultural segment results were as follows (amounts in thousands):

	2006		2005		% Increase (Decrease)
Net sales	$	421,096	$	310,361		36	%
Income from operations		27,351		31,750		(14	%)

Net sales in the agricultural market were $421.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, as compared to $310.4 million in 2005. The expanded product offering of Goodyear branded farm tires, along with the added manufacturing capacity from the Freeport, Illinois, facility accounted for the agricultural market higher sales levels.

Income from operations in the agricultural market was $27.4 million for the year 2006 as compared to $31.8 million in 2005. The decrease in income from operations in the agricultural market was attributed to higher sales volumes in relation to higher fixed overhead costs including fourth quarter of 2006 costs normally dedicated to making products were instead used for retooling, retraining and movement of equipment.

Earthmoving/Construction Segment Results

Earthmoving/construction segment results were as follows (amounts in thousands):

	2006		2005		% Increase
Net sales	$	183,357	$	131,982		39	%
Income from operations		21,837		17,664		24	%

The Company’s earthmoving/construction market net sales were $183.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, as compared to $132.0 million in 2005. The expanded product offering of the Continental and General brands for OTR tires, along with added manufacturing capacity from the Bryan, Ohio, facility accounted for the earthmoving/construction market higher sales levels in 2006. These sales increases were offset by a decrease in sales to the United States government, which were approximately $21 million lower in 2006 as compared to 2005. Sales to the United States government are dependent on government appropriations and have a tendency for significant fluctuations.

The Company’s earthmoving/construction market income from operations was $21.8 million for the year 2006, up from $17.7 million in 2005. The Bryan, Ohio, facility produces tires for earthmoving, construction, and mining machinery in sizes larger than the Company was able to produce before this facility was acquired on July 31, 2006. The increase in income from operations in the earthmoving/construction segment is the result of margins realized on these larger earthmoving, construction and mining tires.

Consumer Segment Results

Consumer segment results were as follows (amounts in thousands):

	2006		2005		% Increase (Decrease)
Net sales	$	75,001	$	27,790		170	%
Income from operations		1,655		1,825		(9	%)

Consumer market net sales were $75.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, as compared to $27.8 million in 2005. The Goodyear farm tire acquisition included an off-take/mixing agreement for certain product sales to Goodyear, the majority of which are included in the consumer segment. Sales to The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company under this agreement of approximately $48 million in 2006 were the reason for the substantial increase in consumer market sales. Consumer market income from operations remained stable at $1.7 million for the year 2006 as compared to $1.8 million in 2005.

Corporate Expenses

Income from operations on a segment basis does not include corporate expenses or depreciation and amortization expense related to property, plant and equipment carried at the corporate level totaling $28.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, as compared to $39.2 million in 2005. Included in the December 31, 2005, corporate expenses of $39.2 million was $15.2 million for the Dyneer legal charge as previously discussed. The December 31, 2005, corporate expenses without the Dyneer legal charge would have been $24.0 million. The increase in corporate expenses without the Dyneer legal charge related primarily to higher sales and marketing expenses related to the acquisition of Freeport and Bryan of approximately $3 million for 2006 as compared to 2005.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flows

As of December 31, 2007, the Company had $58.3 million of cash balances within various bank accounts. This cash balance increased by $24.9 million from December 31, 2006, due to the following cash flow discussion items.

Operating Cash Flows

For the year ended December 31, 2007, operating activities provided cash of $76.0 million. This cash was primarily provided by a decrease in inventories of $26.6 million and increases of $18.1 million in accounts payable and $16.7 million in other current liabilities. Positive cash flows were offset by net loss of $(7.2) million and an increase in accounts receivable of $24.5 million. Included as a reduction to net income were noncash charges of $28.6 million for depreciation and amortization and $13.4 million for a debt conversion charge.

In comparison, for the year ended December 31, 2006, cash of $5.3 million was used for operating activities. This usage was primarily the result of increases in accounts receivable and inventories of $26.8 million and $19.5 million, respectively, offset by an increase in other current liabilities of $13.4 million and net income of $5.1 million. Included as a reduction to net income were noncash charges for depreciation and amortization of $26.9 million.

Operating cash flows increased $81.3 million from the year ended December 31, 2006, to December 31, 2007. This increase was largely the result of cash flows from inventories increasing $46.1 million and cash flows from accounts payable increasing by $16.7 million. In 2007, the Company was successful in decreasing its finished goods inventory at its recently acquired facilities in Freeport, Illinois, and Bryan, Ohio. Accounts payable increased in 2007 as a result of higher purchases resulting from higher sales levels.

For the year ended December 31, 2005, positive cash flows from operating activities of $23.2 million resulted primarily from income of $11.0 million and a decrease in accounts receivable of $5.7 million. Included as a reduction to net income were noncash charges of $20.7 million for depreciation and amortization and $7.2 million for a convertible debt conversion charge. Included as an addition to net income was a noncash benefit of $14.5 million for deferred income tax.

Operating cash flows decreased $28.5 million from the year ended December 31, 2005, to December 31, 2006. This decrease was largely the result of cash flows from accounts receivable decreasing $32.4 million and cash flows from inventories decreasing $21.7 million. These decreased cash flows resulted from large increases in accounts receivable and inventory as the result of higher sales levels. These decreases were offset by an increase in noncash deferred income tax charges of $17.1 million.

Investing Cash Flows

Net cash used for investing activities was $46.4 million in 2007, as compared to $52.7 million in 2006 and $76.7 million in 2005. Titan invested $44.6 million for the Continental OTR tire acquisition in 2006, while the Company invested $100.0 million for the Goodyear North American farm tire acquisition in 2005.

The Company invested a total of $38.0 million in capital expenditures in 2007, compared to $8.3 million in 2006 and $6.8 million in 2005. Of the $38.0 million of capital expenditures in 2007, approximately $22 million relates to the Company’s giant OTR mining tire project. The remaining expenditures represent various equipment purchases and improvements to enhance production capabilities. The Company estimates that current commitments related to the OTR Project at this time are approximately $59 million, including the 2007 disbursement of approximately $22 million. In addition to the OTR Project, the Company estimates that its capital expenditures for other projects for 2008 could be approximately $18 million.

Investing cash flows decreased $24.0 million from the year ended December 31, 2005, to December 31, 2006. This decrease was primarily the result of less cash used for the Continental off-the-road (OTR) asset acquisition in 2006 as compared to the cash used for the Goodyear North American farm tire acquisition in 2005.

Financing Cash Flows

Net cash used by financing activities was $4.7 million in 2007. This cash use was primarily used for payment of debt of $10.2 million offset by proceeds of $6.6 million from the exercise of stock options. Net cash provided by financing activities in 2006 was $90.8 million. This cash was primarily provided by $88.9 million of net debt proceeds. In addition, the exercise of stock options provided $5.4 million in cash and the payment of financing fees used $3.7 million of cash. In 2005, cash of $53.0 million was provided by financing activities, the result of net debt proceeds of $53.4 million.

Financing cash flows decreased $95.5 million from the year ended December 31, 2006, to the year ended December 31, 2007. Also, financing cash flows increased $37.8 million from the year ended December 31, 2005, to December 31, 2006. The large changes from year to year are primarily the result of changes in total debt borrowings. The net debt amounts changed primarily as the result of cash used for acquisitions.

Debt Covenants

The Company’s revolving credit facility contains various covenants and restrictions. The financial covenants in this agreement require that:

·	Collateral coverage be equal to or greater than 1.20 times the outstanding revolver balance.

·	If the 30-day average of the outstanding revolver balance exceeds $225 million, the fixed charge coverage ratio be equal to or greater than a 1.0 to 1.0 ratio.

Restrictions include:

·	Limits on payments of dividends and repurchases of the Company’s stock.

·	Restrictions on the ability of the Company to make additional borrowings, or to consolidate, merge or otherwise fundamentally change the ownership of the Company.

·	Limitations on investments, dispositions of assets and guarantees of indebtedness.

·	Other customary affirmative and negative covenants.

These covenants and restrictions could limit the Company’s ability to respond to market conditions, to provide for unanticipated capital investments, to raise additional debt or equity capital, to pay dividends or to take advantage of business opportunities, including future acquisitions. The failure by Titan to meet these covenants could result in the Company ultimately being in default on these loan agreements.

The Company is in compliance with these covenants and restrictions as of December 31, 2007. The collateral coverage was calculated to be 66.8 times the outstanding revolver balance at December 31, 2007.

The fixed charge coverage ratio did not apply for the quarter ended December 31, 2007. The credit facility usage was $6.1 million at December 31, 2007, consisting exclusively of letters of credit of $6.1 million with no cash borrowings.

Other Items

The Company’s business is subject to seasonal variations in sales that affect inventory levels and accounts receivable balances. Historically, Titan tends to experience higher sales demand in the first and second quarters.

The Company’s Board of Directors authorized Titan to repurchase up to 10.0 million shares of its common stock. No Titan stock was repurchased in 2007 or 2006. The Company repurchased 7.5 million shares in prior years leaving Titan with authorization to repurchase an additional 2.5 million common shares subject to debt agreement covenants. The Company has no plans to repurchase any Titan common stock at this time.

LIQUIDITY OUTLOOK

At December 31, 2007, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $58.3 million and $243.9 million of unused availability under the terms of its revolving credit facility (credit facility). The availability under the Company’s $250 million credit facility was reduced by $6.1 million for outstanding letters of credit. The Company expects to contribute approximately $1 million to its frozen defined benefit pension plans during 2008. The Company has a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $13 million, expiring primarily in 2023, which is expected to reduce the Company’s income tax payments in the future.

In May 2007, Titan’s Board of Directors approved funding for the Company to increase giant OTR mining tire production capacity to include 57-inch and 63-inch giant radial tires (the “OTR Project”). The Company estimates that current commitments related to the OTR Project at this time are approximately $59 million, of which approximately $22 million was disbursed in 2007. Additional capital expenditure commitments will be incurred through 2008 as the OTR Project moves to completion. The final cost of these additional OTR capital items have not been finalized at this time. The Company currently anticipates that cash on hand and anticipated internal cash flows from operations will allow the Company sufficient funds for completion of the OTR Project. In addition to the OTR Project, the Company estimates that its capital expenditures for other projects for 2008 could be approximately $18 million.

Cash on hand and anticipated internal cash flows from operations are expected to provide sufficient liquidity for working capital needs and capital expenditures including the OTR Project. The Company has a $250 million credit facility and currently there are no cash borrowings on the facility. If the Company were to exhaust the availability on this facility or were not to meet the financial covenants and conditions of its loan agreements, the Company’s ability to secure additional funding may be limited.

INFLATION

The Company is subject to the effect of price fluctuations. During 2007, 2006 and 2005, the Company realized price increases for purchases of steel and rubber used in the manufacture of its products. While the cost outlook for commodities used in the Company’s production is not certain, management believes it can manage these inflationary pressures by introducing appropriate sales price adjustments. However, these price adjustments usually lag the inflationary pressures.

(a)

Interest expense is estimated based on the Company’s year-end 2007 debt balances and maturities. The estimates assume no revolver borrowings. The Company’s actual debt balances and interest rates may fluctuate in the future. Therefore, actual interest payments may vary from those payments detailed in the above table.

(b)

Other long-term liabilities represent the Company’s estimated funding requirements for the frozen defined benefit pension plans. The Company’s liability for pensions is based on a number of assumptions, including discount rates, rates of return on investments, mortality rates and other factors. Certain of these assumptions are determined with the assistance of outside actuaries. Assumptions are based on past experience and anticipated future trends and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties and may lead to significantly different pension liability funding requirements.

(c)

The Company pays a royalty relating to a license agreement with The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company to manufacture and sell certain off-highway tires in North America. Under this agreement, royalty trademark payments would cease immediately if Titan discontinued using the Goodyear trademark. Titan currently plans to continue using the Goodyear trademark until circumstances require a change. Titan’s royalty payment to Goodyear for the next five years, the current term of the agreement, using the annual 2007 royalty payment of approximately $6 million as an estimate would total approximately $30 million. The actual royalty amount paid to Goodyear in the future will vary based on the sales of certain off-highway tires in North America and the continuation of the license agreement.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company has no material off-balance sheet arrangements.

MARKET RISK SENSITIVE INSTRUMENTS

Exchange Rate Sensitivity

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in the British pound and Euro world currencies. Titan does not hedge foreign currency transaction or translation exposures. The Company’s net investment in foreign entities translated into U.S. dollars was $34.5 million at December 31, 2007, and $65.9 million at December 31, 2006. The hypothetical potential loss in value of the Company’s net investment in foreign entities resulting from a 10% adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates at December 31, 2007, would amount to approximately $3.5 million.

Commodity Price Sensitivity

The Company does not generally enter into long-term commodity contracts and does not use derivative commodity instruments to hedge its exposures to commodity market price fluctuations. Therefore, the Company is exposed to price fluctuations of its key commodities, which consist primarily of steel and rubber. The Company attempts to pass on certain material price increases and decreases to its customers, depending on market conditions.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

The Company has a $250 million credit facility that has a variable interest rate. If the credit facility were fully drawn, a change in the interest rate of 100 basis points, or 1%, would change the Company’s interest expense by approximately $2.5 million. At December 31, 2007, the Company had no cash borrowings on the credit facility.

At December 31, 2007, the fair value of the senior unsecured notes, based on market prices obtained through independent pricing sources, was approximately $193 million, compared to a carrying value of $200 million.

MARKET CONDITIONS AND OUTLOOK

In 2007, Titan experienced strong demand for the Company’s agricultural and earthmoving/construction products. This strong demand is expected to continue into 2008. The strength in the agricultural market is the result of high commodity prices which have resulted from the continuing increase in the use of biofuels. High prices for metals, oil and gas have created a large demand for the Company’s earthmoving and mining products.

Higher energy, raw material and petroleum-based product costs may continue to negatively impact the Company’s margins. Many of Titan’s overhead expenses are fixed; therefore, lower seasonal trends may cause negative fluctuations in quarterly profit margins and affect the financial condition of the Company.

AGRICULTURAL MARKET OUTLOOK

Agricultural market sales are forecasted to remain strong for 2008. The farm economy is being helped by strong commodity prices. However, the farm economy is also affected by high input costs for fuel and fertilizer. The increasing demand for grain-based ethanol and soybean-based biodiesel fuel has increased commodity prices and should support farm income levels in the long-term. Ethanol production is projected to continue to expand sharply through 2009/2010. The increasing demand for biofuels has supported all agricultural commodity prices as acreage has been shifted from other crops to those used in biofuels. Many variables, including weather, grain prices, export markets and future government policies and payments can greatly influence the overall health of the agricultural economy.

EARTHMOVING/CONSTRUCTION MARKET OUTLOOK

Sales for the earthmoving/construction market are expected to remain strong in 2008. Metals, oil and gas prices have remained high and at levels that are attractive for continued investment, which will maintain support for earthmoving and mining sales. However, the decline in the United States housing market has caused a decline in equipment used for housing construction. The Company’s OTR production realignment is allowing Titan to expand production in earthmoving/construction tire sizes that are in short supply. The OTR Project should begin to add significant capacity for giant mining tires in the second half of 2008. The earthmoving/construction segment is affected by many variables, including commodity prices, road construction, infrastructure, government appropriations and housing starts.

CONSUMER MARKET OUTLOOK

The current overall uncertainty in consumer spending resulting from the housing market decline makes consumer market projections especially difficult. Titan’s sales in the consumer market include sales to Goodyear, which fluctuate significantly based upon their future product requirements, including an off-take/mixing agreement. This agreement includes mixed stock, which is a prepared rubber compound used in tire production. The Company’s consumer market sales may fluctuate significantly related to sales volumes under the off-take/mixing agreement with Goodyear. The Company expects the remaining consumer market sales to be about even in 2008. Many factors affect the consumer market including weather, competitive pricing, energy prices and consumer attitude.

PENSIONS

The Company has three frozen defined benefit pension plans and one defined benefit plan that purchased a final annuity settlement in 2002. These plans are described in Note 20 of the Company’s Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company’s recorded liability for pensions is based on a number of assumptions, including discount rates, rates of return on investments, mortality rates and other factors. Certain of these assumptions are determined with the assistance of outside actuaries. Assumptions are based on past experience and anticipated future trends. These assumptions are reviewed on a regular basis and revised when appropriate. Revisions in assumptions and actual results that differ from the assumptions affect future expenses, cash funding requirements and the carrying value of the related obligations. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, the Company contributed cash funds of approximately $1 million to the frozen defined benefit pension plans. In addition, the Company contributed 0.2 million shares of Titan common stock with an approximate value of $5 million to the frozen pension plans in 2007. Titan expects to contribute approximately $1 million to these frozen defined benefit pension plans during 2008.

In October 2007, the Titan Tire Bryan pension plan, adopted at the date of the Continental OTR asset acquisition and frozen from its inception, received cash transfers of approximately $25 million from Continental Tire North America’s frozen pension plan for the Bryan, Ohio, location. The amount transferred into the frozen plan was actuarially approved to be a fully funded plan.

Titan’s projected benefit obligation at December 31, 2007, was $95.4 million as compared to $68.8 million at December 31, 2006. The Company’s defined benefit pension plans were underfunded by $0.9 million at December 31, 2007. During 2007, the Company recorded net periodic pension cost of $0.2 million. Accumulated other comprehensive loss recorded for defined benefit pension plans, net of tax, was $15.6 million and $16.4 million at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Other comprehensive income is recorded as a direct charge to stockholders’ equity and does not affect net income. Titan will be required to record net periodic pension cost in the future; these costs may fluctuate based upon revised assumptions and could negatively affect the Company’s financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

Management’s Responsibility for Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in this annual report on Form 10-K. Management believes that the consolidated financial statements fairly reflect the transactions and the financial statements reasonably present the Company’s financial position and results of operations in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Board of Directors of the Company has an Audit Committee comprised entirely of outside directors who are independent of management. The Committee meets periodically with management, the internal auditors and the independent registered public accounting firm to review accounting control, auditing and financial reporting matters. The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm and approval of their fees.

The independent registered public accounting firm audits the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). The consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2007, have been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report, which is included herein.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management has performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007.

The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors

and Stockholders of

Titan International, Inc.:

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the accompanying index under item 15(a)(1) present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Titan International Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements and financial statement schedule, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing on page F-1. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements, on the financial statement schedule, and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.	DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business

Titan International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (Titan or the Company) are leading manufacturers of wheels, tires and assemblies for off-highway vehicles used in the agricultural, earthmoving/construction and consumer markets. Titan’s earthmoving/construction market also includes products supplied to the U.S. military and other government entities, while the consumer market includes all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and recreational/utility trailer applications. Titan manufactures both wheels and tires for the majority of these market applications, allowing the Company to provide the value-added service of delivering complete wheel and tire assemblies. The Company offers a broad range of products that are manufactured in relatively short production runs to meet the specifications of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and/or the requirements of aftermarket customers.

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly- and majority-owned subsidiaries. Titan records its investment in each unconsolidated affiliated company (20% to 49% ownership) at its related equity in the net assets of such affiliate, as adjusted for equity earnings and losses. Investments of less than 20% of non-publicly traded entities are carried at cost. Investments of less than 20% of publicly traded entities are carried at fair value in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” The Company records change of interest gains and losses directly to equity. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Inventories

Fixed assets

Property, plant and equipment have been recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the related assets:

	Years
Building and improvements		25
Machinery and equipment		10
Tools, dies and molds		5

Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When property, plant and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated, and any gain or loss on disposition is included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Interest is capitalized on fixed asset projects which are constructed over a period of time. The amount of interest capitalized is determined by applying an interest rate to the average amount of accumulated expenditures for the asset during the period. The interest rate used is based on the rates applicable to borrowings outstanding during the period.

F-7

TITAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Deferred financing costs

Deferred financing costs are costs incurred in connection with the Company’s revolving credit facility and senior unsecured notes. The costs associated with the revolving credit facility are being amortized over the remaining term of the facility. The costs associated with the senior unsecured notes are amortized straight line over five years, the term of the notes. Amortization of deferred financing costs for the debt facilities approximates the effective interest rate method.

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company records all financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, other accruals and notes payable at cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in marketable equity securities are recorded at fair value. The senior unsecured notes are the only significant financial instrument of the Company with a fair value different from the recorded value. At December 31, 2007, the fair value of the senior unsecured notes, based on market prices obtained through independent pricing sources, was approximately $193 million, compared to a carrying value of $200 million.

Available-for-sale securities

Impairment of fixed assets

The Company reviews fixed assets to assess recoverability from future operations whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. Impairment losses are recognized in operating results when expected undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset. Impairment losses are measured as the excess of the carrying value of the asset over the discounted expected future cash flows or the estimated fair value of the asset.

Foreign currency translation

The financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated to United States currency in accordance with SFAS No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation.” Assets and liabilities are translated to United States dollars at period-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the period. Translation adjustments are included in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” in stockholders’ equity. As of December 2007, the Company’s investment in Titan Europe Plc was classified as available-for-sale securities and this investment is recorded as “Investment in Titan Europe Plc” on the consolidated balance sheet. Gains and losses that result from foreign currency transactions are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Impairment of goodwill

The Company reviews goodwill to assess recoverability from future operations during the fourth quarter of each annual reporting period, and whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable, as required by the adoption of SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The carrying amount of $11.7 million of goodwill by segment at December 31, 2007, was (i) agricultural of $6.9 million, (ii) earthmoving/construction of $3.6 million and (iii) consumer of $1.2 million. Based on a discounted cash flow method at December 31, 2007, the Company’s computation showed no impairment. See Note 8 for additional information.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Revenue recognition

The Company records sales revenue when products are shipped to customers and both title and the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred. Provisions are established for sales returns and uncollectible accounts based on historical experience. Should these trends change, adjustments would be necessary to the estimated provisions.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales is comprised primarily of direct materials and supplies consumed in the manufacturing of the Company’s products, as well as manufacturing labor, depreciation expense and overhead expense necessary to acquire and convert the purchased materials and supplies into a finished product. Cost of sales also includes all purchasing, receiving, inspection, internal transfers, and related distribution costs.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expense is comprised primarily of sales commissions, marketing expense, selling and administrative wages, information system costs, legal fees, bank charges, audit fees, research and development, depreciation and amortization expense on non-manufacturing assets, and other administrative items.

Research and development expense

Research and development (R&D) expenses are expensed as incurred and included as part of selling, general and administrative expense. R&D costs were $1.7 million, $1.3 million and $0.8 million for the years of 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Advertising

Advertising expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expense and are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses were approximately $2 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, and less than $1 million for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.

Warranty costs

The Company provides limited warranties on workmanship on its products in all market segments. The provision for estimated warranty costs is made in the period when such costs become probable and is based on past warranty experience. Warranty costs were $8.9 million, $5.5 million and $2.6 million for the years of 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Warranty costs have increased due to the acquisition of the Freeport and Bryan facilities and the resulting higher sales levels.

Income taxes

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing consolidated net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing adjusted consolidated net earnings by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted average number of potential common shares outstanding. Potential common shares consist of outstanding options under the Company’s stock option plans and the conversion of the Company’s senior unsecured convertible notes.

Statement of cash flows

For purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers short-term debt securities with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Interest paid

The Company paid $10.2 million, $15.6 million and $7.5 million for interest in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. In 2006, the increase in interest paid of approximately $8 million was due to borrowings related to acquisition of the Freeport and Bryan facilities. In 2007, the decrease in interest paid of approximately $5 million was due to higher accrued interest balance resulting from the timing of interest payments.

F-9

TITAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Income taxes paid

Titan paid $2.4 million, $0.2 million and $1.9 million for income taxes in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Global market risk

The Company manufactures and sells products and purchases goods in the United States and foreign countries. The Company is potentially subject to foreign currency exchange risk relating to receipts from customers and payments to suppliers in foreign currencies. As a result, the Company’s financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in the foreign markets in which the Company conducts business. Gains and losses arising from the settlement of foreign currency transactions are charged to the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the related period. Translation adjustments arising from the translation of foreign subsidiary financial statements are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Environmental liabilities

Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are expensed or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations and that do not contribute to current or future revenue are expensed. Liabilities are recorded when environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts are probable and can be reasonably estimated.

Stock-based compensation

At December 31, 2007, the Company has three stock-based compensation plans, which are described in Note 21. In 2005 and prior years, the Company applied the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations in accounting for those plans. No stock-based compensation expense was recorded in the consolidated financial statements under this method, as any stock options granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and income per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to stock-based compensation for the year ended December 31, 2005 (in thousands, except share data):

The Company granted no stock options in 2007 or 2006. The weighted-average fair value of stock options granted in 2005 was $9.56 and was calculated at the time of issue using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions used for grants:

Reclassification

Certain amounts from prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. The predominant reclassification was that the 2006 and 2005 Consolidated Statements of Operations have been revised to combine idled assets for sale depreciation, which was previously shown separately, with the selling, general and administrative expenses.

Use of estimates

The policies utilized by the Company in the preparation of the financial statements conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and require management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates and assumptions.

Senior unsecured notes

In December 2006, the Company closed its offering of $200 million 8% senior unsecured notes. The notes were sold at par and are due January 2012. Titan used the net proceeds from this offering to repay outstanding existing debt, excluding the senior unsecured convertible notes, and for general corporate purposes.

Revolving credit facility

The Company’s $250 million revolving credit facility (Credit Facility) with agent LaSalle Bank National Association (a Bank of America company) has an October 2009 termination date and is collateralized by a first priority security interest in certain assets of Titan and its domestic subsidiaries. At December 31, 2007, the borrowings under the Credit Facility bore interest at a floating rate of prime rate plus 0% to 1% or LIBOR plus 1% to 2%. There were no cash borrowings under this Credit Facility at December 31, 2007. The facility contains certain financial covenants, restrictions and other customary affirmative and negative covenants. The Company is in compliance with these covenants and restrictions as of December 31, 2007.

Credit facility amendments

In February 2007, the Company amended the Credit Facility. The amendment extended the termination date to October 2009 (previously October 2008). The amendment also lowered borrowing rates, which are now based on a pricing grid that varies with the amount borrowed. The borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate of LIBOR plus 1% to 2% (previously 2.75%). The amendment lowered the revolving loan availability from $250 million to $125 million with the ability to request an increase back to $250 million.

In December 2007, the Company amended the facility and increased the revolving loan availability back to a $250 million Credit Facility.

Senior unsecured convertible notes

The registration statement relating to the shares of common stock to be offered was declared effective February 2007. In March 2007, the Company announced 100% acceptance of the conversion offer and the $81.2 million of accepted notes were converted into 6,577,200 shares of Titan common stock. Titan recognized a noncash chargeof $13.4 million in connection with this exchange in accordance with SFAS No. 84, “Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt.”

Industrial revenue bonds and other

Other debt primarily consisted of industrial revenue bonds, loans from local and state entities, and other long-term notes. All industrial revenue bonds and other debt were fully paid off in the first quarter of 2007.

In March 2007, the Company announced 100% acceptance of the conversion offer and the $81.2 million of accepted notes were converted into 6,577,200 shares of Titan common stock.

The Company recognized a noncash charge of $13.4 million in connection with this exchange in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 84, “Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt.” This charge does not reflect $1.0 million of interest previously accrued on the notes. The shares issued for the conversion were issued out of treasury shares. The exchange resulted in a decrease in treasury stock of $59.0 million and an increase to additional paid-in capital of approximately $35.2 million. Stockholder’s equity increased by $80.9 million in total as a result of this exchange.

In June of 2005, Titan finalized a private transaction to exchange $33.8 million of the Company’s outstanding 5.25% senior unsecured convertible notes due 2009 for 3,022,275 shares of common stock as proposed to the Company by certain note holders.

20.	EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Pension plans

The Company has a frozen defined benefit pension plan covering certain employees of Titan Tire Corporation (Titan Tire) and has a frozen defined benefit pension plan covering certain employees of Titan Tire Corporation of Bryan (Bryan). In October 2007, the Bryan pension plan, adopted at the date of the Continental OTR asset acquisition and frozen from its inception, received cash transfers of approximately $25 million from Continental Tire North America’s frozen pension plan for the Bryan, Ohio, location. The amount transferred into the frozen plan was actuarially approved to be a fully funded plan. The Company also has a frozen contributory defined benefit pension plan covering certain former eligible bargaining employees of its Walcott, Iowa, facility (Walcott). Additionally, the Company maintains a contributory defined benefit plan that covered former eligible bargaining employees of Dico, Inc (Dico). This Dico plan purchased a final annuity settlement contract in October 2002. The Company’s policy is to fund pension costs as required by law, which is consistent with the funding requirements of federal laws and regulations.

The Company’s defined benefit plans have been aggregated in the following table. Included in the December 31, 2007, presentation are the Titan Tire and Walcott plans which have a projected benefit obligation of $71.2 million, exceeding the fair value of plan assets of $69.1 million at December 31, 2007. Included in the December 31, 2006, presentation are the Titan Tire and Walcott plans, which have a projected benefit obligation and accumulated benefit obligation of $68.8 million, exceeding the fair value of plan assets of $60.2 million at December 31, 2006.

The projected benefit obligation and the accumulated benefit obligation are the same amount since the Plans are frozen and there are no future compensation levels to factor into the obligations. The Company absolved itself from the liabilities associated with the Dico plan with the purchase of a final annuity settlement contract in October 2002. Therefore, the plan no longer maintains a projected or accumulated benefit obligation. The fair value of the Dico plan assets was $0.5 million at December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005.

The following table provides the change in benefit obligation, change in plan assets, funded status and amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheet of the defined benefit pension plans as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 (in thousands):

The allocation of the fair value of plan assets was as follows:

U.S. equities (a)		56	%		65	%		40% - 80	%

International equities (a)		11	%		9	%		0% - 16	%
		100	%		100	%

(a)	Total equities may not exceed 80% of total plan assets.

The Company invests in a diversified portfolio consisting of an array of asset classes in an attempt to maximize returns while minimizing risk. These asset classes include U.S. equities, fixed income, cash and cash equivalents, and international equities. The investment objectives are to provide for the growth and preservation of plan assets on a long-term basis through investments in: (i) investment grade securities that provide investment returns that meet or exceed the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index and (ii) investment grade fixed income securities that provide investment returns that meet or exceed the Lehman Government / Corporate Index. The U.S. equities asset category included the Company’s common stock in the amount of $5.1 million (approximately five percent of total plan assets) and $2.3 million (approximately four percent of total plan assets) at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

The long-term rate of return for plan assets is determined using a weighted-average of long-term historical returns on cash and cash equivalents, fixed income securities, and equity securities considering the anticipated investment allocation within the plans. The expected return on plan assets is anticipated to be 8.5% over the long-term. This rate assumes historical returns of 10% for equities and 7% for fixed income securities using the plans’ target allocation percentages. Professional investment firms, none of which are Titan employees, manage the plan assets.

Although the 2008 minimum pension funding calculations are not finalized, the Company estimates those funding requirements will be approximately $1 million.

Projected benefit payments from the plans as of December 31, 2007, are estimated as follows (in thousands):

2008	$	6,393
2009		6,472
2010		6,490
2011		6,536
2012		6,631
2013-2017		35,090

401(k)

The Company sponsors five 401(k) retirement savings plans. One plan is for the benefit of substantially all employees who are not covered by a collective bargaining arrangement. Titan provides a 25% matching contribution in the form of the Company’s common stock on the first 6% of the employee’s contribution in this plan. The Company issued 13,669 shares, 13,506 shares and 18,645 shares of treasury stock in connection with this 401(k) plan during 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Expenses to the Company related to this common stock matching contribution were $0.4 million for 2007 and $0.3 million for each of 2006 and 2005.

A second plan is for employees covered by a collective bargaining arrangement at Titan Tire Corporation and does not include a Company matching contribution. Employees are fully vested with respect to their contributions.

The Company’s third plan received a 401(k) plan transfer in 2006 for the employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement at Titan Tire Corporation of Freeport. This plan does not include a Company matching contribution. Employees are fully vested with respect to their contributions.

A fourth plan is for employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement at Titan Tire Corporation of Bryan. This plan does not include a Company matching contribution. Employees are fully vested with respect to their contributions.

Previously, the Company adopted a 401(k) plan for the former employees of Titan Tire Corporation of Natchez. This plan relates to the non-operational facility in Natchez, Mississippi.

21.	STOCK OPTION PLANS

On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” using the modified prospective method of adoption, which does not require restatement of prior periods. The Company previously applied the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations in accounting for share-based option awards. SFAS 123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based option awards on the date of the grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the vesting period. No stock-based compensation expense was recorded during 2007, 2006, or 2005. See Note 1 for 2005 pro forma information illustrating the effect on net income and income per share if the Company had applied the provisions of SFAS 123(R). The Company granted no stock options during 2007 or 2006. All previously granted stock options were fully vested before January 1, 2006.

In accordance with SFAS 123(R), cash flows from income tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of compensation cost recognized for share-based option awards have been classified as financing cash flows prospectively from January 1, 2006. Previously, these excess tax benefits were presented as operating cash flows.

Stock Incentive Plan

The Company adopted the 1993 Stock Incentive Plan (the Plan) to provide grants of stock options as a means of attracting and retaining qualified employees for the Company. There will be no additional issuance of stock options under this plan as it has expired. Options previously granted were fully vested in 2005 and expire 10 years from the grant date of the option.

Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan

The Company adopted the 1994 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan (the Director Plan) to provide for grants of stock options as a means of attracting and retaining qualified independent directors for the Company. There will be no additional issuance of stock options under this plan as it has expired. Options previously granted were fully vested in 2005 and expire 10 years from the grant date of the option.

2005 Equity Incentive Plan

The Company adopted the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan to provide stock options as a means of attracting and retaining qualified independent directors and employees for the Company. A total of 2.1 million shares are reserved for the plan. The exercise price of stock options may not be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the grant. The vesting and term of each option is set by the Board of Directors. In 2007 and 2006 no stock options were granted under this plan. In 2005, a total of 890,380 options were granted under this plan. These options were fully vested in 2005 and expire 10 years from the grant date of the option.

Stock options outstanding and exercisable as of December 31, 2007, were as follows:

			Options Outstanding				Options Exercisable
Price Range		Weighted Average Contractual Life	Number of Options		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Number of Options		Weighted Average Exercise Price

27.	SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

The Company has aggregated its operating units into reportable segments based on its three customer markets: agricultural, earthmoving/construction and consumer. These segments are based on the information used by the chief executive officer and chief operating officer to make certain operating decisions, allocate portions of capital expenditures and assess segment performance. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1, “Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies.” Segment external revenues, expenses and income from operations are determined on the basis of the results of operations of operating units of manufacturing facilities. Segment assets are generally determined on the basis of the tangible assets located at such operating units’ manufacturing facilities and the intangible assets associated with the acquisitions of such operating units. However, certain operating units’ goodwill and property, plant and equipment balances are carried at the corporate level.

Titan is organized primarily on the basis of products being included in three marketing segments, with each reportable segment including wheels, tires and wheel/tire assemblies.

The table below presents information about certain revenues and expenses, income (loss) from operations and segment assets used by the chief operating decision maker of the Company as of and for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands):
