Delphi Corporation on Tuesday reported a first half 2006 net loss of $2.6bn, including charges of $1.9bn associated with the company’s employee-shedding programme.


Total revenues were $14.0bn while non-GM revenues grew 9% year-on-year to $7.7bn or 55%.


“In the first half of the year, Delphi achieved an 85% acceptance rate of UAW employees signing up for its special attrition programme,” said Delphi CFO Robert Dellinger.


“The attrition programmes are a step in our transformation; however, we continue to experience losses reflecting an uncompetitive US cost structure.


“[We are] addressing these issues with our stakeholders, including our unions and General Motors, as part of our reorganisation proceedings through the bankruptcy court.”
