FINANCIAL MEASURES THAT SUPPLEMENT GAAP

(Unaudited)

Earnings before interest, taxes, noncontrolling interests and restructuring charges

We define EBIT as earnings or loss before interest expense, income tax expense and noncontrolling interests in income of consolidated subsidiaries (EBIT). We use EBIT to assess and measure the performance of our operating segments and also as a component in measuring our variable compensation programs. Below is a reconciliation of EBIT, a non-GAAP financial measure, to consolidated net income attributable to Cummins Inc., for each of the applicable periods:

FINANCIAL MEASURES THAT SUPPLEMENT GAAP

(Unaudited)

Net income and diluted earnings per share (EPS) attributable to Cummins Inc. excluding restructuring charges

We believe this is a useful measure of our operating performance for the period presented as it illustrates our operating performance without regard to restructuring. This measure is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and may not be consistent with measures used by other companies. It should be considered supplemental data.
