The loss resulted from significant price reductions on parts supplied to major customer and former parent General Motors Corp.

In 2005 Delphi filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection to reorganize its struggling U.S. operations. As a result of this action, the Securities and Exchange Commission granted an application by the New York Stock Exchange to delist Delphi's common stock and bonds. The company now works on its reorganization plan.

Since bankruptcy petition Delphi has cut thousands of jobs, closed the majority of plants in the U.S.

The company failed to emerge from bankruptcy by mid April, thus setting aside its equity plan - $6.1 billion exit financing deal.
