Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements:
Adient plc 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 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.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information:
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 are 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.

1. Segment Results
During the three months ended December 31, 2016, the Company began evaluating the performance of its reportable segments using an
adjusted EBIT metric defined as income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests, excluding net financing charges, qualified
restructuring and impairment costs, restructuring related-costs, non-recurring "Becoming Adient" costs (formerly separation costs), net mark-
to-market adjustments on pension and postretirement plans, transaction gains/losses, purchase accounting amortization and other non-recurring
items ("Adjusted EBIT"). Prior period information has been recast to this new performance metric. The reportable segments are consistent
with how management views the markets served by the Company and reflect the financial information that is reviewed by its chief operating
decision maker.
The Company has two reportable segments for financial reporting purposes: Seating and Interiors.
• The Seating segment produces automotive seat metal structures and mechanisms, foam, trim, fabric and complete seat systems.
• The Interiors segment, derived from its global automotive interiors joint ventures, produces instrument panels, floor consoles, door
panels, overhead consoles, cockpit systems, decorative trim and other products.
Prior period information has been recast to conform to current performance metrics. Financial information relating to the Company's reportable
segments is as follows:

Free cash flow, Net debt and Net leverage as well as other measures presented on an adjusted basis are not recognized terms under U.S. GAAP
and do not purport to be alternatives to the most comparable U.S. 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. Management
uses the identified non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of the Company and its business segments and to forecast
future periods. Management believes these non-GAAP measures may assist investors and other interested parties in evaluating Adient's on-
going operations and 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. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to their closest U.S. GAAP equivalent are presented below. Reconciliations of non-
GAAP measures related to FY 2017 guidance have not been provided due to the unreasonable efforts it would take to provide such reconciliations.
• 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 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-

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 effective tax rate is defined as adjusted income tax provision as a percentage of adjusted income before income taxes.
• Pro-forma adjusted effective tax rate is defined as Pro-forma adjusted income tax provision as a percentage of Pro-forma adjusted
income before income taxes. Pro-forma adjusted income tax provision includes the tax impact of the pro-forma IT dis-synergies and
pro-forma interest expense, and the impact of the tax rate had Adient been operating as a stand-alone company domiciled in its
current jurisdiction.
• Adjusted earnings per share is defined as Adjusted net income attributable to Adient divided by diluted weighted average shares.
• Pro-forma adjusted earnings per share is defined as Pro-forma adjusted net income attributable to Adient divided by diluted weighted
average shares.
• Adjusted equity income is defined as equity income as reported excluding amortization of intangible assets related to the YFAI joint
venture.
• Pro-forma adjusted net financing charges are defined as net financing charges as reported excluding interest expense that Adient
would have incurred had it been a stand-alone company.

cash management actions and capital expenditures), less capital expenditures.
• Net debt is calculated as gross debt less cash and cash equivalents.
• Net leverage is calculated as net debt divided by the last twelve months of Pro-forma adjusted EBITDA.
