Navistar
International Corporation (the company) is unable to timely file its Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q (Report)
for the period ended July 31, 2006 because
of its ongoing review of a number of complex and technical accounting items
relating to its financial statements for the fiscal year ended October 31,
2005.
As a result of this ongoing review, the company was unable to timely file its
Report for the period ended July 31, 2006 with the Commission by September
8,
2006, and will be unable to file such Report within the five-day extension
provided by Rule 12-25(b). The company expects to file its Report for the period
ended July 31, 2006 as soon as practicable following the resolution of the
foregoing matters and the filing of the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended October 31, 2005.

No

On
January 17, 2006, the company issued a news release announcing that it was
delaying the filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended
October 31, 2005 because it was reviewing a number of complex and technical
accounting items.
On
February 21, 2006, the company issued a news release stating that while the
company continues to work toward a resolution of the items mentioned above,
the
review of the accounting matters may result in changes to its previously issued
financial statements, including the possibility of a restatement.
On
April
7, 2006, the company issued a news release announcing it will restate its
financial results for the fiscal years 2002 through 2004 and for the first
nine
months of fiscal 2005 and that its audit committee designated KPMG LLP as the
company’s new registered public accounting firm replacing Deloitte & Touche
LLP whose engagement with the company was terminated by the audit committee.
In
that press release, the company further announced that the need for a
restatement has been identified in the ongoing review of accounting matters
and
that the company has identified items requiring restatement to include
accounting for anticipated external funding of product development programs,
timing of recognition of amounts deemed to be collectible from certain
suppliers, including rebates and warranty recoveries, accounting for warranty
to
be provided by the company outside of the terms of the contractual arrangements
and shifting balances and expense amounts between reporting periods at one
of
the company’s
foundry operations. The company’s review process continues and will likely
result in the identification of additional items requiring correction in the
restated results. For additional information on this matter, please refer to
our
Current Report on Form 8-K dated and filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”) on April 12, 2006 which is hereby incorporated herein by
reference.
This
Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 contains forward-looking statements
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, Section 21E of the
Exchange Act, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such
forward-looking statements only speak as of the date of this notice and we
assume no obligation to update the information included in this notice. Such
forward-looking statements include information concerning our possible or
assumed future results of operations, including descriptions of our business
strategy. These statements often include words such as “believe,” “expect,”
“anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate” or similar expressions. These
statements are not guarantees of performance or results and they involve risks,
uncertainties and assumptions, including the risk of continued delay in the
completion of our financial statements. Although
we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable
assumptions, there are many factors that could affect our actual financial
results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ
materially from those in the forward-looking statements. For
a
further description of these factors, see Exhibit 99.1 to our Form 8-K filed
on
April 12, 2006. In addition, until the previously announced review by the
company of its accounts is concluded, no assurance can be given with respect
to
the financial statement adjustments, impacts and period resulting for such
review, if any, nor can there be any assurance that additional adjustments
to
the financial statements of the company will not be
identified.
