EXPLANATORY NOTE - AMENDMENT

Meritor, Inc. (“Meritor”) is filing this Amendment No.1 on Form 10-K/A (this "Form 10-K/A") to include in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 28, 2014 (the “Annual Report”), pursuant to Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, financial statements and related notes of Meritor WABCO Vehicle Control Systems ("MWVCS") in which Meritor owns a 50% interest.
Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X provides that if a 50% or less-owned person accounted for by the equity method meets the first or third condition of the significant subsidiary tests set forth in Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X, substituting 20% for 10%, separate annual financial statements for such 50% or less-owned person corresponding to the periods covered by the financial statements of Meritor included in the Annual Report shall be filed. Such statements are required to be audited only for the years in which such person met such test.
MWVCS did not meet the significance test for Meritor's 2014 or 2012 fiscal year. Therefore, Meritor is only required to file unaudited financial statements of MWVCS as of and for the fiscal years ended September 28, 2014 and September 30, 2012. MWVCS met the significance test for the 2013 fiscal year. Therefore, Meritor is required to file audited financial statements of MWVCS as of and for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2013. As a result, Meritor has included in this Form 10-K/A the required audited and unaudited financial statements of MWVCS for the 2014, 2013 and 2012 fiscal years.
Item 15 is the only portion of the Annual Report being supplemented or amended by this Form 10-K/A. Additionally, in connection with the filing of this Form 10-K/A and pursuant to SEC rules, Meritor is including the consent of the independent auditors of MWVCS and currently dated certifications. This Form 10-K/A does not otherwise update any exhibits as originally filed and does not otherwise reflect events occurring after the original filing date of the Annual Report. Accordingly, this Form 10-K/A should be read in conjunction with Meritor’s filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Annual Report.

as of
September 30, 2014 (Unaudited) and 2013, and for the Years Ended September 30, 2014 (Unaudited), 2013, and 2012 (Unaudited), and Independent Auditor’s Report

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
To Meritor WABCO Vehicle Control Systems:

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Meritor WABCO Vehicle Control Systems (the "Company"), which comprise the balance sheet as of September 30, 2013, and the related statements of net income and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

MERITOR WABCO VEHICLE CONTROLS SYSTEMS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 (UNAUDITED) AND 2013, AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 (UNAUDITED), 2013, AND 2012 (UNAUDITED)
______________________________________________________________________________________________________

1. FORMATION AND OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE

Description of the Business - Meritor WABCO Vehicle Control Systems (the “Company”) (formerly Rockwell WABCO Vehicle Control Systems) was formed on December 7, 1989, as a joint venture between WABCO Automotive Control Systems, Inc. (WABCO), a subsidiary of American Standard Inc., and Rockwell Brake Systems, Inc. (“Rockwell”), a subsidiary of Rockwell International (together, the “Partners”), and began operations on February 1, 1990. In 1997, Meritor Automotive, Inc. was spun out of Rockwell. As a part of this transaction, Rockwell’s partnership interest in the Company was transferred to Meritor Brake Systems, Inc. On July 31, 2007, WABCO spun from American Standard, Inc. As a part of this transaction, American Standard’s partnership interest in the Company was transferred to WABCO. The Company’s principal business is the sale of antilock braking and conventional air systems and other vehicle control systems for use on medium and heavy-duty trucks, buses, and trailers. Capital contributions and returns are made in equal proportions to maintain each Partner’s interest in the Company at 50%. All items of income or expense are allocated to the Partners in proportion to their respective cumulative capital contributions.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, using standard costing, which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis. Inventory at September 30, 2014 and 2013 consists principally of components held for resale and includes approximately $17,948,187 (Unaudited) and $16,669,000, respectively, of inventory inbound to the Company, for which risk of loss has transferred.
Property and Equipment - Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation on property and equipment is calculated using the straight‑line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are 3 to 25 years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations. Expenditures for betterments or major renewals are capitalized and depreciated over their useful lives.
Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue upon shipment of product and transfer of ownership to the customer. Provisions for customer sales allowance and incentives are recorded as a reduction of sales at the time of product shipment.
Income Taxes - No provision for income taxes has been made, as it is the Partners’ responsibility for federal, state, and local income taxes. Taxable income or loss is allocated to the Partners based on their respective ownership percentages, in accordance with the partnership agreement.
Fair Value Measurements - Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Additionally, it establishes a fair value hierarchy that provides the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data. Refer to Note 8 to the financial statements for further detail on the fair value measurements.
Warranty - A majority of warranty claims are the responsibility of the product supplier, WABCO, and other product suppliers. The Company processes claims on behalf of the product suppliers. However, under a contractual arrangement with a product supplier who is a related party, the reimbursement to the Company of such warranty claims is based on a combination of a flat rate (0.85%) of current year purchases from the product supplier and campaign recoveries from the product supplier. Campaign recoveries are based on the expected claims to be received. As a result of these agreements, the Company incurs warranty expense when the recoveries do not cover the amount of warranty claims processed or expected. Warranty accruals are recorded based on historical claims paid in the build year and three years after, as a percentage of sales in the year the sale is made. Warranty claim payments have historically been highest in the year directly following the build year. This is partially due to the fact that certain products are sold with two-year warranty policies. Products that have longer warranty presentation periods have also trended closer to two years, as opposed to three, for recent build years.


9


The amounts deemed recoverable from all product suppliers are $10,178,365 (Unaudited) and $5,984,311 as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The current portion of the expected recoveries, $5,330,791 (Unaudited) and $3,835,562 is reflected as an offset to accounts payable as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, while the noncurrent portion of the expected recoveries, $4,847,574 (Unaudited) and $2,148,747 is a receivable as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Estimates - The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue.

3. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company has no employees, but purchases employee and other services from the Partners. Total expenses for services from related parties during the years ended September 30, 2014 (Unaudited), 2013, and 2012 (Unaudited), recorded in cost of goods sold and other operating expenses were as follows:

Additionally, during the years ended September 30, 2014, 2013, and 2012, the Company recorded net transactions of approximately $204,371,222 (Unaudited), $165,817,779, and $186,194,320 (Unaudited), respectively, which primarily relate to purchases of productive inventory from WABCO. Also, the Company recorded sales of approximately $86,085,550 (Unaudited), $69,034,437, and $64,287,951 (Unaudited), respectively, primarily to Meritor.
The Company purchases a significant portion of productive inventory from related parties in Europe. All purchases are denominated in U.S. dollars. The Company has an agreement with certain of these related parties, whereby if the difference between the currency exchange rate at the time of purchase and an agreed‑upon currency exchange rate exceeds 3%, the purchase price is adjusted so that the currency exchange effect exceeding 3% is shared equally by both parties. The Company and the related parties settle all transactions on a monthly basis. The Company records the purchase price adjustments in cost of goods sold which have been insignificant in 2014, 2013 and 2012.

A majority of the Company’s sales are to manufacturers of heavy-duty trucks and trailers. Many of the Company’s automotive industry customers are unionized, and work stoppages or slowdowns experienced by them could have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations. Substantially, all of the receivables are from companies operating in the domestic transportation equipment industry.




5. WARRANTY AND POLICY

7. COMMITMENTS

The Company leases its principal operating facility, a warehouse located in Hebron, Kentucky. The lease commenced on October 1, 1999, with options to renew at the end of the lease term. The initial lease term was for a period of five years. In 2004, the Company extended its lease for an additional five years. In 2008, an agreement was reached with the lessor, and an addendum to the lease agreement was executed. Effective November 1, 2008, the Company reduced its leased premises by 16,910 square feet. Terms of this renegotiated lease are 60 months beginning November 1, 2009, and ending October 31, 2014. In 2014, an addendum to the lease agreement was executed on January 1, 2014. Terms of the re-negotiated lease are 50 months beginning November 1, 2014 and ending November 30, 2018. The lease agreement requires current monthly rentals plus the tenant’s share of property taxes and operating expenses. In addition, the Company leases office space in Troy, Michigan from one of the joint venture partners on a month-to-month basis. Lease payments are made monthly. Total rental expense under these agreements,

8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC 820 provides a definition of fair value, establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value, and requires expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets, Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable, and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists; therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
As of September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company held certain assets that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These consist of investments in money market mutual funds recorded within cash and cash equivalents. These funds are valued at the daily closing price as reported by the fund. The mutual funds held by the Company are deemed to be actively traded.
Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis subject to the disclosure requirements of ASC 820 as of September 30, 2014 (Unaudited), were as follows:
    
 
Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets
 
Significant Other Observable Inputs
 
Significant Unobservable Inputs
 
(Level 1)
 
(Level 2)
 
(Level 3)
Cash equivalents - money market mutual funds

There were no financial assets or liabilities carried at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of September 30, 2014 and 2013.
Transfers Between Levels - The availability of observable market data is monitored to assess the appropriate classification of financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in economic conditions or model-based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments from one fair value level to another. In such instances the transfer is reported at the beginning of the reporting period.

12


We evaluate the significance of transfers between levels based upon the nature of the financial instrument and size of the transfer relative to total assets. For the years ended September 30, 2014, 2013, and 2012, there were no transfers between levels.
