I. Executive Summary

Executive Summary

We have summarized market reaction to the Project Raven Proposal (the “Proposal”) below

Share price reaction to the Proposal has been very positive, particularly considered in the context of significant declines and volatility across global equity markets

1-day share price reaction was very positive, with the shares reaching a high of $76.46 (up 22.3%) and closing at $69.94 (up 11.9%), compared to the U.S. comparables which closed down 1.8%

Share Price Reaction

Even adjusting for Magna’s positive earnings release, market reaction for the reorganization was positive

Since announcement, the shares have continued to outperform with Magna increasing 9.5% while the U.S. comparables have declined 12.8%

Despite a significant decline in broader equity markets, 1-day share price reaction of +11.9% was significantly better than in other precedent share reorganizations (average of +2.9%)

All analysts increased share price targets with the average target now US$82.80, up from US$67.80

Research analysts believe the Proposal will unlock value for shareholders and result in improved valuation going forward due to narrowing or elimination of historical trading discount

Analyst & Investor Commentary

Institutional investors are generally supportive of the transaction, however, some remain cautious about some of the terms of the Proposal and are waiting for clarification from the information circular

Issues included how the aggregate value to Stronach Trust was determined and the structuring of the E-Car JV

Multiples Analysis

Magna’s valuation discount to the peer group narrowed materially since the announcement

On a pro forma basis, Magna is currently trading at 4.8x 2010E EBITDA and 4.lx 2011E EBITDA, a 0.8x and 0.6x discount, respectively, to the key comparables

Prior to the announcement the Company was trading at a 1.7x and 1.5x discount based on 2010E and 2011E EBITDA, respectively

We believe that the Class A shareholders of Magna are likely to approve the transaction due to the likelihood of considerable value creation; the cost to the Magna shareholders is the stock and cash to be paid to Mr. Stronach valued at US$863 million but Magna shareholders stand to gain from a considerable lift in Magna’s valuation multiple

Target multiple has risen from 4.5x to reflect the positive shareholder structural proposal that could eliminate the long

observed “Stronach discount”

Proposal to unlock shareholder value is already working. Given that Magna has historically traded at a ~35% discount to its peers

on an EV/EBITDA basis, we believe the elimination of the multiple voting share structure will meaningfully reduce or eliminate

this valuation discount and vis-à-vis drive significant share price appreciation

Transaction could result in a) the partial/entire elimination of the valuation discount for the super-voting right share class

long embedded in MGA and b) gradual deployment of some/all of MGA’s excess cash for accretive acquisitions/investments

We believe Magna is well positioned to be a consolidator of the North American supply base

As well, the stock offers considerable value relative to the leading U.S. auto parts companies

We rate Magna International shares as High Risk based on the company’s market capitalization, earnings history, price volatility, and customer concentration

The primary risk to near-to-medium term stock performance is if the recovery in light vehicle demand is weaker or further off than our and the Street expectations

Other risks to the stock not achieving our target price include production cyclicality, execution risk of launching new programs, the company founder’s voting concentration through Class B shares, raw material prices and labour relations

On our numbers, MGA’s shares remain attractive, relative to its peers and its historical valuation range, and in the context of the company’s normalized profit outlook

MGA could command a higher valuation on our 2011 estimates in the context of greater momentum in economic growth and accelerated recovery in vehicle production

We rate MGA shares Overweight and maintain our December 2010 price target of $68, which is predicated upon 11x JPM 2012E EPS of $6.15

MGA currently trades at a relatively low 9.3x on our estimate of normalized (JPM 2012E) EPS of $6.15. This compares to its historical 15-year average of approximately 10x forward EPS

We believe strong-balance-sheet suppliers such as MGA who have the resources to invest in restructuring their operations are likely to be winners of the current cycle

While MGA has higher-than-peer group exposure to GM and Chrysler, we believe investors are ready to pay for normalized earnings for MGA given its perception as a well-managed and solid balance sheet name in a period when auto production volumes are likely to increase

7-May-10 A In our view, the transition eliminating super voting shares would not only allay investor concerns, but would likely

close the 15%-20% EV/EBITDA valuation discount traditionally applied to MGA’s stock

6-May-10 A We expect MGA will see a sustained positive multiple rerating on EBITDA vs prior on conversion of shares (requires plan of arrangement with majority of Class A holders voting in favor of proposal-meeting is expected by end of Q2 2010)

We believe Magna is one of the highest-quality auto suppliers, despite facing near-term risks of volume declines and a weak US dollar

MGA has one of the strongest balance sheets in our supplier coverage universe… we believe MGA’s solid balance sheet and reputation as an excellent operator will allow the company to continue winning takeover and new business

We value Magna shares by applying a multiple of 4x to our Fil EV/EBITDA estimate, driving our new $63 (previously $58) target price (also equates to ~15x P/E on our 2011 EPS estimate)

We note the 4x EV/EBITDA multiple is a discount to industry peers, as has traditionally been the case, but in line with Magna’s historical average

6-May-10 A Based on changes to MGA’s shareholder voting structure (announced in conjunction with the earnings release), but taking into account the company’s below average organic growth, we now believe MGA should trade at the low-end of the historical

supplier range of 5.0x-6.0x; this compares with MGA’s historical multiple of ~4.0x

10-May-10 A Our target for Magna rises to $75 from $57 reflecting: (1) an increase in our EV/EBITDA and P/E multiples to 4.8X and 12X from 4X and 11X, previously, effectively eliminating a large part of the discount to the rest of the space on our expectation of the elimination of the Stronach majority voting right

7-May-10 A The fact that Mr. Stronach, through his B Share ownership, controlled 66% of the vote (and thus, controlled the Board),

has long been a shackle around the MGA valuation, a move to eliminate the controlling bloc should un-lock value for shareholders

Our target is based on 12x our 2011 EPS estimate, the high-end of the historical 8-12x range for the group. We believe this is appropriate given Magna’s low leverage and strong cash position relative to its peers

We also believe 2011 margins may not represent normalized margins for the company, as results are likely to be burdened by Magna’s investment in its electronics and hybrid systems businesses

Magna’s customer base is highly concentrated in the Big Three auto makers, which account for 75% of Magna’s NA sales. Therefore, the most significant risk is further market share losses by GM and Chrysler

Our Sell rating on Magna remains a relative call as we do not see much absolute downside in the current share price

But we do expect the shares to underperform driven by; (1) the company’s high exposure to GM and Chrysler where we expect further market share losses and (2) our view that the company has underinvested in restructuring relative to peers in the downturn and as such, its performance will lag peers in the upturn as it continues to reorganize operations

Our target price rises to $62 from $54, on a combination of higher projected 2011 profits (which accounts for about half the increase), a stronger cash balance, and a lower discount rate
