Appendix and Financial Reconciliations

P24© TRW Automotive 2015 Q4 2014 Earnings Presentation – February 13, 2015

Non-GAAP Financial MeasurementsThe accompanying unaudited consolidated financial information, reconciliation of GAAP net earnings to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) and calculation of net leverage, should be read in conjunction with the TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, and our reports on form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 28, 2014, June 27, 2014, and September 26, 2014 which contain summary historical data. Since all companies do not use identical calculations, our definition and presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAEarnings before income tax (benefit) expense, interest expense and depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) is a measure used by management to evaluate the operating performance of the Company and its business segments and to forecast future periods. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding restructuring charges, asset impairments, loss on retirement of debt, and other significant special items.

© TRW Automotive 2015 P25

restructuring charges, asset impairments, loss on retirement of debt, and other significant special items. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the performance of ongoing operations separate from items that may have a disproportionate impact in any particular period. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used by securities analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not purport to be alternatives to net earnings as an indicator of operating performance, nor to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Additionally, neither is intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements.

Net LeverageNet Leverage is calculated as Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the preceding twelve months. We believe that Net Leverage is an important metric for industry analysts and investors in evaluating the Company's liquidity and ability to service existing debt. However, Net Leverage is not a recognized term under GAAP as a measure of financial performance and it does not purport to be an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity.

Free Cash FlowFree Cash Flow

Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities, excluding special pension settlement contributions, less capital expenditures, and is used by management in analyzing the Company’s ability to service and repay its debt and to forecast future periods. However, this measure does not represent funds available for investment or other discretionary uses since it does not deduct cash used to service debt or for other non-discretionary expenditures. This measure should not be used as a substitute for cash flow provided by operating activities. Further, since all companies do not use identical calculations, our definition and presentation of free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
