Adient Investor Meeting August 2017 Exhibit 99.1


Slide 2

Adient has made statements in this document that are forward-looking and, therefore, are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements in this document other than statements of historical fact are statements that are, or could be, deemed “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In this document, statements regarding Adient’s future financial position, sales, costs, earnings, cash flows, other measures of results of operations, capital expenditures or debt levels and plans, objectives, outlook, targets, guidance or goals are forward-looking statements. Words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “should,” “forecast,” “project” or “plan” or terms of similar meaning are also generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. Adient cautions that these statements are subject to numerous important risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors, some of which are beyond Adient’s control, that could cause Adient’s actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including, among others, risks related to: the ability of Adient to meet debt service requirements, the availability and terms of financing, general economic and business conditions, the strength of the U.S. or other economies, automotive vehicle production levels, mix and schedules, energy and commodity prices, the availability of raw materials and component products, currency exchange rates, and cancellation of or changes to commercial arrangements. A detailed discussion of risks related to Adient’s business is included in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Adient’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016 filed with the SEC on November 29, 2016 and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC, available at www.sec.gov. Potential investors and others should consider these factors in evaluating the forward-looking statements and should not place undue reliance on such statements. The forward-looking statements included in this document are made only as of the date of this document, unless otherwise specified, and, except as required by law, Adient assumes no obligation, and disclaims any obligation, to update such statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this document. In addition, this document includes certain projections provided by Adient with respect to the anticipated future performance of Adient’s businesses. Such projections reflect various assumptions of Adient’s management concerning the future performance of Adient’s businesses, which may or may not prove to be correct. The actual results may vary from the anticipated results and such variations may be material. Adient does not undertake any obligation to update the projections to reflect events or circumstances or changes in expectations after the date of this document or to reflect the occurrence of subsequent events. No representations or warranties are made as to the accuracy or reasonableness of such assumptions or the projections based thereon. This document also contains non-GAAP financial information because Adient’s management believes it may assist investors in evaluating Adient’s on-going operations. Adient believes these non-GAAP disclosures provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to Adient’s financial condition and results of operations. Investors should not consider these non-GAAP measures as alternatives to the related GAAP measures. A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to their closest GAAP equivalent is included in the appendix. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures related to FY2017 guidance have not been provided due to the unreasonable efforts it would take to provide such reconciliations. Forward looking statement

Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT margin, Pro-forma adjusted EBIT, Pro-forma adjusted EBIT margin, Pro-forma adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted effective tax rate, Adjusted net income attributable to Adient, Pro-forma adjusted net income attributable to Adient, Adjusted earnings per share, Free cash flow, Net debt, Net leverage, Adjusted SG&A, as well as other measures presented on an adjusted basis are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to the most comparable GAAP amounts. Since all companies do not use identical calculations, our definition and presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT margin, Pro-forma adjusted EBIT, Pro-forma adjusted EBIT margin, Pro-forma adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted effective tax rate, Adjusted net income attributable to Adient, Pro-forma adjusted net income attributable to Adient, Adjusted earnings per share and Free cash flow are measures used by management to evaluate the operating performance of the company and its business segments to forecast future periods. Adjusted EBIT is defined as income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests excluding net financing charges, restructuring, impairment and related costs, purchase accounting amortization, transaction gains/losses, expenses associated with becoming an independent company, other significant non-recurring items, and net mark-to-market adjustments on pension and postretirement plans. General corporate and other overhead expenses are allocated to business segments in determining Adjusted EBIT. Adjusted EBIT margin is Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of net sales. Pro-forma adjusted EBIT is defined as Adjusted EBIT excluding pro-forma IT dis-synergies as a result of higher stand-alone IT costs as compared to allocated IT costs under our former parent. Pro-forma adjusted EBIT margin is Pro-forma adjusted EBIT as a percentage of net sales. Pro-forma adjusted EBITDA is defined as Pro-forma adjusted EBIT excluding depreciation and stock based compensation. Adjusted effective tax rate is defined as adjusted income tax provision as a percentage of adjusted income before income taxes. Adjusted net income attributable to Adient is defined as net income attributable to Adient excluding restructuring, impairment and related costs, purchase accounting amortization, transaction gains/losses, Becoming Adient/separation costs, other significant non-recurring items, net mark-to-market adjustments on pension and postretirement plans, and the tax impact of these items. Pro-forma adjusted net income attributable to Adient is defined as Adjusted net income attributable to Adient excluding pro-forma IT dis-synergies as a result of higher stand-alone IT costs as compared to allocated IT costs under our former parent, pro-forma interest expense that Adient would have incurred had it been a stand-alone company, the tax impact of these items and the pro-forma impact of the tax rate had Adient been operating as a stand-alone company domiciled in its current jurisdiction. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as cash from operating activities plus payments from our former parent (related to reimbursements for cash management actions and capital expenditures), less capital expenditures. Management uses these measures to evaluate the performance of ongoing operations separate from items that may have a disproportionate impact on any particular period. These measures are also used by securities analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry Net debt is calculated as gross debt less cash and cash equivalents. Net leverage is calculated as net debt divided by last twelve months (LTM) pro-forma adjusted-EBITDA. Non-GAAP financial measurements
