TA's products include body structures and assemblies (body pillars, roof rails); lower vehicle frames and structures (pickup and SUV full frame assemblies); complex body-in-white assemblies (front and rear floor pan assemblies); chassis modules (axle assemblies); and suspension components (control arms, spring and shock towers). TA's largest customers include <A href="http://premium.hoovers.com/subscribe/co/factsheet.xhtml?ID=ffffrfhskffrycckcj&ticker=F">Ford Motor</A>, <A href="http://premium.hoovers.com/subscribe/co/factsheet.xhtml?ID=ffffrfjcfffhyhjjry&ticker=GM">General Motors</A>, <A href="http://premium.hoovers.com/subscribe/co/factsheet.xhtml?ID=ffffcrxjkjsfhjjxrh&ticker=HMC">Honda</A>, and <A href="http://premium.hoovers.com/subscribe/co/factsheet.xhtml?ID=ffffcrxhyyrhfrjtsh&ticker=VOW">Volkswagen</A>. Struggling financially, TA filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2005; it emerged from Chapter 11 in 2007. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://premium.hoovers.com/subscribe/co/factsheet.xhtml?ID=ctrytxfjtjfryc"><TR><TH>scal Year-End</TH><TD>December</TD></TR><TR class="altrow"><TH>2006 Sales (mil.)</TH><TD>$2,539.4</TD></TR><TR><TH>1-Year Sales Growth</TH><TD>(22.7%)</TD></TR><TR class="altrow"><TH>2006 Net Income (mil.)</TH><TD>($202.1)</TD></TR><TR><TH>2006 Employees </TH><TD>10,477</TD></TR><TR class="altrow"><TH>1-Year Employee Growth</TH><TD>(4.8%)</TD></TR><TR><TH>Employees At This Location</TH><TD>5</TD></TR></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://premium.hoovers.com/subscribe/co/factsheet.xhtml?ID=ctrytxfjtjfryc"><TH>Fiscal Year-End</TH></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://premium.hoovers.com/subscribe/co/factsheet.xhtml?ID=ctrytxfjtjfryc"><table background="undefined" bgcolor=""><tr><TD>December</TD></tr></table></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://premium.hoovers.com/subscribe/co/factsheet.xhtml?ID=ctrytxfjtjfryc"><TH>2006 Sales (mil.)</TH></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://premium.hoovers.com/subscribe/co/factsheet.xhtml?ID=ctrytxfjtjfryc"><table background="undefined" bgcolor=""><tr><TD>$2,539.4</TD></tr></table></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://premium.hoovers.com/subscribe/co/factsheet.xhtml?ID=ctrytxfjtjfryc"><TH>2006 Employees </TH></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://premium.hoovers.com/subscribe/co/factsheet.xhtml?ID=ctrytxfjtjfryc"><table background="undefined" bgcolor=""><tr><TD>10,477</TD></tr></table></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/A67D82AF-79C9-465C-8841-E44704E440CD/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
