Net Sales
 
Net sales were $3.32 billion for fiscal 2009 versus $3.70 billion in fiscal 2008. Foreign currency translation unfavorably impacted net sales in fiscal 2009 by approximately $1.6 million. Excluding the foreign currency translation impact, net sales decreased by approximately $372.8 million, or 10.1%, primarily as a result of lower unit sales and $141.9 million reduced pricing related to the decrease in the market price of lead.

Transportation Americas net sales were $1.14 billion for fiscal 2009 versus $1.13 billion for fiscal 2008. Net sales for fiscal 2009 were $10.2 million, or 0.9%, higher than fiscal 2008 due to the favorable impact of price, partially offset by a decline in aftermarket and OEM unit sales as well as a $45.6 million unfavorable impact caused by the lower average price of lead. Third-party lead sales for fiscal 2009 were approximately $21.3 million lower than fiscal 2008.
 
Transportation Europe and ROW net sales were $908.1 million for fiscal 2009 versus $1.16 billion for fiscal 2008. Net sales in fiscal 2009, excluding the favorable impact of $1.2 million in foreign currency translation, decreased by $249.1 million, or 21.6% compared to fiscal 2008. The decrease was primarily due to lower unit volumes in the aftermarket and OEM channels as well as $63.2 million in reduced pricing related to the decrease in the market price of lead, partially offset by favorable non-lead pricing actions in both channels.

Industrial Energy Americas net sales were $287.1 million for fiscal 2009 versus $301.6 million for fiscal 2008. Net sales in fiscal 2009 were $14.4 million, or 4.8%, lower than fiscal 2008 due primarily to lower unit sales in the motive power markets and, to a lesser extent, the network power markets as well as a $7.0 million unfavorable impact caused by the lower average price of lead, partially offset by favorable non-lead pricing actions implemented in both markets.
 
Industrial Energy Europe and ROW net sales were $990.5 million for fiscal 2009 versus $1.11 billion for fiscal 2008. Net sales in fiscal 2009, excluding unfavorable foreign currency translation of $2.8 million, decreased $119.5 million, or 10.7%, compared to fiscal 2008 due to lower unit sales in the network power and motive power markets as well as a $26.1 million unfavorable impact of the lower average price of lead, partially offset by favorable non-lead pricing actions implemented in both markets.
 
Net Sales
 
Net sales were $3.70 billion for fiscal 2008 versus $2.94 billion in fiscal 2007.

Transportation Americas net sales were $1.13 billion for fiscal 2008 versus $930.3 million for fiscal 2007. Net sales for fiscal 2008 were $196.1 million, or 21.1%, higher than fiscal 2007 due to favorable pricing actions and increases in unit volume, particularly in the aftermarket channel which experienced a 6.3% increase, partially offset by a 10.0% decline in the OEM channel. Although the Company has been focused on cost-cutting efforts, it has also been increasing its efforts to pass on commodity cost increases to its customers. In many cases, the Company has been successful in passing on these increased costs, although there is typically a time lag between implementation of changes and realization of the related pricing. In cases where the Company has not been successful passing on these costs, it has determined not to accept further business from certain of these customers to avoid absorbing these customer losses. Third-party lead sales revenues for fiscal 2008 were approximately $32.7 million higher than fiscal 2007.
 
Transportation Europe and ROW net sales were $1.16 billion for fiscal 2008 versus $832.2 million for fiscal 2007. Net sales in fiscal 2008, excluding the favorable impact of $117.3 million in foreign currency translation, increased by $206.5 million, or 24.8% compared to fiscal 2007. The increase was primarily due to favorable pricing actions, partially offset by a 7.9% reduction in overall unit sales.
 
Industrial Energy Americas net sales were $301.6 million for fiscal 2008 versus $270.5 million for fiscal 2007. Net sales in fiscal 2008 were $31.1 million, or 11.5%, higher than fiscal 2007 due primarily to favorable pricing actions implemented in both the network power and motive power markets to help offset higher commodity costs.
 
Industrial Energy Europe and ROW net sales were $1.11 billion for fiscal 2008 versus $906.8 million for fiscal 2007. Net sales in fiscal 2008, excluding favorable foreign currency translation of $111.0 million, increased $94.9 million, or 10.5%, compared to fiscal 2007 due to favorable pricing actions implemented in both the network power and motive power markets, partially offset by reduced volumes in the motive power market.

Net Sales
 
Net sales were $2.94 billion for fiscal 2007 versus $2.82 billion in fiscal 2006. Foreign currency translation (primarily the strengthening of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar) favorably impacted net sales in fiscal 2007 by approximately $87.7 million. Excluding the foreign currency translation impact, net sales increased by approximately $32.2 million, or 1.1%, as a result of stronger Industrial Energy demand in Europe and ROW, and was partially offset by weaker Transportation demand in both the Americas and Europe and ROW, and weaker Industrial Energy demand in the Americas in the network power product. Lower demand was more than offset by the impact of favorable pricing actions in all of the Company’s segments. Much of the lower unit volume in both Transportation segments was attributed to the Company’s pricing strategy of driving customer profitability to more appropriate levels or severing relationships where reasonable profitability could not be achieved.

Transportation Americas net sales were $930.3 million for fiscal 2007 versus $913.3 million for fiscal 2006. Net sales for fiscal 2007 were $17.0 million, or 1.9% higher, than fiscal 2006 due to higher pricing, which, in part, reflected the pass-through of cost increases from lead, other materials, and energy. Transportation Americas experienced lower volumes in original equipment and aftermarket sales, in part, as a result of the Company’s efforts to eliminate or wind down unprofitable contracts and customers. Third-party lead sales revenues for fiscal 2007 were approximately $22.4 million higher than fiscal 2006 due to rising lead prices.
 
Transportation Europe and ROW net sales were $832.2 million for fiscal 2007 versus $810.9 million for fiscal 2006. Net sales in fiscal 2007 excluding the favorable impact of $42.3 million in foreign currency translation reduced by $21.0 million, or 2.6%, compared to fiscal 2006. The decrease was primarily due to lower aftermarket sales volumes only partially offset by higher average selling prices.
 
Industrial Energy Americas net sales were $270.5 million for fiscal 2007 versus $275.0 million for fiscal 2006. Net sales in fiscal 2007 were $4.5 million, or 1.6% lower than fiscal 2006, due primarily to the softness in the network power markets, particularly in wireless telecommunications and lower sales to the U.S. Navy, which spiked in fiscal 2006 in advance of a change in technology, offset partially by higher average selling prices related to lead cost recovery and strong volume in the motive power markets.
 
Industrial Energy Europe and ROW net sales were $906.8 million for fiscal 2007 versus $820.7 million for fiscal 2006. Net sales in fiscal 2007, excluding favorable foreign currency translation of $45.4 million,

Net Sales

 

Net sales were $2,500,493 for fiscal 2004 versus $2,361,101 in fiscal 2003. Currency positively impacted net sales for fiscal 2004 by approximately $229,000. The strength of the Euro in the Company’s European markets also resulted in competitive pricing pressures from Asian imports, negatively impacting average selling prices.

 

Transportation North America net sales were $817,710 for fiscal 2004 versus $833,493 for fiscal 2003. Revenues declined slightly due to reduced unit volumes in both the aftermarket and original equipment channels.

 

Transportation Europe and ROW net sales were $760,512 for fiscal 2004 versus $660,417 for fiscal 2003. Volumes declined in the original equipment channel following the loss of certain original equipment business. Selling prices were lower in fiscal 2004, principally because of competitive pricing pressures. Currency positively impacted Transportation Europe and ROW net sales in fiscal 2004 by approximately $120,000.

 

Industrial Energy North America net sales were $210,572 for fiscal 2004 versus $199,856 for fiscal 2003. The increase was primarily due to higher material handling application volumes and higher telecommunications market volumes.

 

Industrial Energy Europe and ROW net sales were $711,699 for fiscal 2004 versus $667,335 for fiscal 2003. Sales volumes were lower due to lower European material handling application shipments, reductions from strong European military shipments in fiscal 2003 and weakness in the Asian market, including disruption of the Company’s Chinese operations. Sales were also negatively impacted by competitive pricing pressures in Europe, including the impact of Asian imports. Currency positively impacted Industrial Energy Europe and ROW net sales in fiscal 2004 by approximately $109,000.

Net Sales

 

Net sales were $2,361,101 for fiscal 2003 versus $2,428,550 in fiscal 2002. This decrease resulted from lower sales volumes in all of the Company’s business segments during fiscal 2003. Net sales were positively impacted by $136,900 due to the strong Euro.

 

Transportation North America net sales were $833,493 for fiscal 2003 versus $893,695 for fiscal 2002. Revenues declined due to reduced unit volumes principally due to lost business and territories in our aftermarket accounts. These reductions were partially offset by benefits from warranty management programs. Results for fiscal 2003 were also favorably impacted by approximately $4,800 from changes in estimates of historical warranty obligations based upon new commercial arrangements.

 

Transportation Europe and ROW net sales were $660,417 for fiscal 2003 versus $624,424 for fiscal 2002. Sales volumes were slightly lower, primarily in original equipment. Currency positively impacted Transportation Europe and ROW net sales in fiscal 2003 by approximately $68,800.

 

Industrial Energy North America net sales were $199,856 for fiscal 2003 versus $254,643 for fiscal 2002. Lower sales volumes resulted from the general softness in the United States economy, including the impact on demand for material handling application volumes and a significant decline in capital spending in the telecommunications sector.

 

Industrial Energy Europe and ROW net sales were $667,335 for fiscal 2003 versus $655,788 for fiscal 2002. Lower sales volumes were a direct result of the significantly weaker telecommunications markets in Europe and Asia. Currency positively impacted Industrial Energy Europe and ROW net sales in fiscal 2003 by approximately $68,100.

Net Sales

 

Net sales were $1,978,036 in the nine months of fiscal 2005 versus $1,825,015 in the nine months of fiscal 2004. Currency positively impacted net sales in the nine months of fiscal 2005 by approximately $87,400. Net sales were higher by approximately $43,700 as a result of lead related pricing actions.

 

Transportation North America net sales were $643,019 in the nine months of fiscal 2005 versus $611,132 in the nine months of fiscal 2004. Third party lead sales revenues for the nine months of fiscal 2005 were $19,416 higher than the nine months of fiscal 2004 due to rising lead prices. Transportation North America net sales also increased due to higher unit volumes, principally in the original equipment channel and higher average selling prices from lead related pricing actions.

 

Transportation Europe and ROW net sales were $598,007 in the nine months of fiscal 2005 versus $538,730 in the nine months of fiscal 2004. Currency positively impacted Transportation net sales in the nine months of fiscal 2005 by approximately $44,600. European selling prices for the nine months of fiscal 2005 were higher than the nine months of fiscal 2004, primarily from the effect of lead-related pricing adjustments, partially offset by the impact of lower sales volumes in the original equipment and aftermarket channels.

 

Industrial Energy North America net sales in the nine months of fiscal 2005 were $160,359 versus $154,333 in the nine months of fiscal 2004. The increase was primarily due to higher material handling application volumes, lead related pricing actions and the recognition of $2,950 previously deferred income on a customer agreement under which the Company fulfilled its obligations in the third quarter of fiscal 2005.

 

Industrial Energy Europe and ROW net sales in the nine months of fiscal 2005 were $576,651 versus $520,820 in the nine months of fiscal 2004. Currency positively impacted Industrial Energy Europe and ROW
