Expenses totaled $4.46 billion, Delphi said in a filing with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court.Delphi had planned to emerge from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection by the end of June, but the company said in mid-April that would be delayed until the second half of the year.Delphi officials also said last month that the company had been told that Cerberus Capital Management LP, would leave a consortium of investors who would put up to $3.4 billion into the company in exchange for new shares of Delphi stock. A spokeswoman for Cerberus, which was to have covered half of the investment, said last week that has not happened.Delphi currently is negotiating with its unions on wages, benefits and other costs.Copyright 2007 Associated Press.
