Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Adient is a global leader in the automotive seating supplier industry. Adient has a leading market position in the Americas, Europe and China, and has longstanding relationships with the largest global original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, in the automotive space. Adient's proprietary technologies extend into virtually every area of automotive seating solutions, including complete seating systems, frames, mechanisms, foam, head restraints, armrests, trim covers and fabrics. Adient is an independent seat supplier with global scale and the capability to design, develop, engineer, manufacture, and deliver complete seat systems and components in every major automotive producing region in the world. Adient also participates in the automotive interiors market primarily through its global automotive interiors joint venture in China, Yanfeng Global Automotive Interior Systems Co., Ltd., or YFAI.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Adient have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise disclosed) that management believes are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of Adient for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full-year results.

Principles of Consolidations

Adient consolidates its wholly-owned subsidiaries and those entities in which it has a controlling interest. Investments in partially-owned affiliates are accounted for by the equity method when Adient's interest exceeds 20% and does not have a controlling interest.

Consolidated VIEs

Based upon the criteria set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 810, "Consolidation," Adient has determined that it was the primary beneficiary in two variable interest entities (VIEs) for the reporting periods ended March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively, as Adient absorbs significant economics of the entities and has the power to direct the activities that are considered most significant to the entities.

The two VIEs manufacture seating products in North America for the automotive industry. Adient funds the entities' short-term liquidity needs through revolving credit facilities and has the power to direct the activities that are considered most significant to the entities through its key customer supply relationships.

The carrying amounts and classification of assets (none of which are restricted) and liabilities included in Adient's consolidated statements of financial position for the consolidated VIEs are as follows:

		March 31,				September 30,
(in millions)		2019				2018
Current assets		$	266			$	270
Noncurrent assets		42				43
Total assets		$	308			$	313
Current liabilities		$	257			$	252
Total liabilities		$	257			$	252

New Accounting Pronouncements

Standards Adopted During Fiscal 2019

ASU 2014-09, Revenue - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. On October 1, 2018, Adient adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), and all the related amendments using the modified retrospective method as applied to all customer contracts that were not completed as of October 1, 2018. As a result, financial information for reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2018 are presented in accordance with ASC 606. Comparative financial information for reporting periods beginning prior to October 1, 2018 has not been adjusted and continues to be reported in accordance with Adient's revenue recognition policies prior to the adoption of ASC 606. Adient did not record a cumulative adjustment related to the adoption of ASC 606, and the effects of adoption were not significant. Refer to Note 2, "Revenue Recognition," of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for information related to Adient's adoption of ASU 2014-09.

ASU 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. On October 1, 2018, Adient adopted the amendments to ASU 2017-07 that improve the presentation of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs and retrospectively adopted the presentation of service cost separate from the other components of net periodic costs. The interest cost, expected return on assets, amortization of prior service costs, net remeasurement, and other costs have been reclassified from cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses to other pension expense (income). Adient elected to apply the practical expedient which allows reclassification of amounts previously disclosed in the retirement benefits note as the basis for applying retrospective presentation for comparative periods as it is impracticable to determine the disaggregation of the cost components for amounts capitalized and amortized in those periods. On a prospective basis, the other components of net periodic benefit costs will not be included in amounts capitalized in inventory or property, plant, and equipment.

The effect of the retrospective presentation change related to the net periodic cost of Adient's defined benefit pension and other postretirement employee benefits ("OPEB") plans on the consolidated statements of income (loss) for the three months and six months ended March 31, 2018 resulted in $2 million and $3 million increases to cost of sales, $2 million and $3 million decreases to gross profit, $7 million and $8 million decreases to earnings (loss) before interest and income taxes and $7 million and $8 million increases to other pension expense (income) line items in the condensed consolidated statements of income, respectively. As a result of presenting certain pension costs as non-operating items, adjusted EBITDA decreased in EMEA by $1 million and $2 million for the three months and six months ended March 31, 2018, respectively.

ASU 2018-08, Not for Profit Entities: Clarifying the Scope and the Accounting Guidance for Contributions Received and Contributions Made		ASU 2018-08 is intended to clarify and improve the scope and the accounting guidance for contributions received and contributions made. The amendments in ASU No. 2018-08 should assist entities in (1) evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as contributions (nonreciprocal transaction) within the scope of Topic 958, Not-for-Profit Entities, or as exchange (reciprocal) transactions subject to other guidance and (2) determining whether a contribution is conditional. This amendment applies to all entities that make or receive grants or contributions.		October 1, 2018
ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal Use Software: Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract		The amendments in ASU 2018-15 require implementation costs incurred by customers in cloud computing arrangements to be deferred and recognized over the term of the arrangement, if those costs would be capitalized by the customer in a software licensing arrangement under the internal-use software guidance. The amendments also require an entity to disclose the nature of its hosting arrangements and adhere to certain presentation requirements in its balance sheet, income statement and statement of cash flows.		ASU No. 2018-15 is effective for Adient for the quarter ending December 31, 2019, with early adoption permitted. Adient early adopted ASU No. 2018-15 effective October 1, 2018.
ASU 2018-16, Derivatives and Hedging: Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Overnight Index Swap (OIS) Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes		The amendments in this Update permit use of the OIS rate based on SOFR as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes under Topic 815 in addition to the UST, the LIBOR swap rate, the OIS rate based on the Fed Funds Effective Rate, and the SIFMA Municipal Swap Rate.		October 1, 2018

Standards Effective After Fiscal 2019

Adient believes that the ASU summarized below, which is effective at the beginning of fiscal 2020, could significantly impact the consolidated financial statements:

Standard Pending Adoption		Description		Anticipated Impact		Effective Date
ASU 2016-02, 2018-01, 2018-10, 2018-11 and ASU 2019-01		The standard requires that a lessee recognize on its balance sheet right-of-use assets and corresponding liabilities resulting from leasing transactions, as well as additional financial statement disclosures. Currently, U.S. GAAP only requires balance sheet recognition for leases classified as capital leases. The provisions of this update apply to substantially all leased assets.		Adient is currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows and expects the impact to the consolidated balance sheet to be significant.		October 1, 2019

Adient plc | Form 10-Q | 10

---

Adient has considered the ASUs summarized below, effective after fiscal 2019, none of which are expected to significantly impact the consolidated financial statements:

Standard Adopted		Description		Date Effective
ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments		ASU 2016-13 changes the impairment model for financial assets measured at amortized cost, requiring presentation at the net amount expected to be collected. The measurement of expected credit losses is based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses will now be recorded through an allowance for credit losses.		October 1, 2020
ASU 2018-07, Compensation-Stock Compensation: Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting		ASU 2018-07 expands the scope of Topic 718 to include all share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. ASU 2018-07 specifies that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which the grantor acquires goods and services to be used or consumed in its own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. ASU 2018-07 also clarifies that Topic 718 does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under ASC 606.		October 1, 2019
ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement: Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement		The amendments in ASU 2018-13 eliminate, add, and modify certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 will be effective for Adient for the quarter ending December 31, 2019, with early adoption permitted for either the entire ASU or only the provisions that eliminate or modify requirements. The amendments with respect to changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty are to be applied prospectively. All other amendments are to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented.		October 1, 2019
ASU 2018-14, Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans-General: Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defned Benefit Plans		The amendments in ASU 2018-14 eliminate, add, and modify certain disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans. The guidance is to be applied on a retrospective basis to all periods presented.		October 1, 2020
ASU 2018-17, Consolidated: Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities		The amendments in this Update affect reporting entities that are required to determine whether they should consolidate a legal entity under the guidance within the Variable Interest Entities Subsections of Subtopic 810-10, Consolidation-Overall.		October 1, 2019
ASU 2018-18, Collaborative Arrangements: Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606		The amendments in this Update make targeted improvements to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for collaborative arrangements as follows: 1) Clarify that certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participant is a customer in the context of a unit of account. In those situations, all the guidance in Topic 606 should be applied, including recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements. 2) Add unit-of-account guidance in Topic 808 to align with the guidance in Topic 606 (that is, a distinct good or service) when an entity is assessing whether the collaborative arrangement or a part of the arrangement is within the scope of Topic 606. 3) Require that in a transaction with a collaborative arrangement participant that is not directly related to sales to third parties, presenting the transaction together with revenue recognized under Topic 606 is precluded if the collaborative arrangement participant is not a customer.		October 1, 2019

2. Revenue Recognition

Adient adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606), and all the related amendments using the modified retrospective method as applied to all customer contracts that were not completed as of October 1, 2018. As a result, financial information for reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2018 are presented in accordance with ASC 606. Comparative financial information for reporting periods beginning prior to October 1, 2018 has not been adjusted and continues to be reported in accordance with Adient's revenue recognition policies prior to the adoption of ASC 606. Adient did not record a cumulative adjustment related to the adoption of ASC 606 as the effects of adoption were not significant. The majority of Adient's nonconsolidated partially-owned affiliates will adopt ASC 606 on October 1, 2019.

Adient generates revenue through the sale of automotive seating solutions, including complete seating systems and the components of complete seating systems.

In a typical arrangement with the customer, purchase orders are issued for pre-production activities which consist of engineering, design and development, tooling and prototypes for the manufacture and delivery of component parts. Adient has concluded that these activities are not in the scope of ASC 606 and for that reason, there have been no changes to how Adient accounts for reimbursable pre-production costs.

Adient provides production and service parts to its customers under awarded multi-year programs. The duration of a program is generally consistent with the life cycle of a vehicle, however, the program can be canceled at any time without cause by the customer. Programs awarded to Adient to supply parts to its customers do not contain a firm commitment by the customer for volume or price and do not reach the level of a performance obligation until Adient receives either a purchase order and/or a materials release from the customer for a specific number of parts at a specified price, at which point an enforceable contract exists. Sales revenue is generally recognized at the point in time when parts are shipped and control has transferred to the customer, at which point an enforceable right to payment exists. Contracts may provide for annual price reductions over the production life of the awarded program, and prices are adjusted on an ongoing basis to reflect changes in product content/cost and other commercial factors. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration that Adient expects to be entitled to in exchange for such products based on purchase orders, annual price reductions and ongoing price adjustments (some of which are accounted for as variable consideration and subject to being constrained, but which are not expected to significantly change under ASC 606), net of the impact, if any, of consideration paid to the customer.

Adient has elected to continue to include shipping and handling fees billed to customers in revenue, while including costs of shipping and handling in cost of sales. Taxes collected from customers are excluded from revenue and credited directly to obligations to the appropriate government agencies. Payment terms with customers are established based on customary industry and regional practices. Adient has evaluated the terms of its arrangements and determined that they do not contain significant financing components.

Contract assets primarily relate to the right to consideration for work completed, but not billed at the reporting date on contracts with customers. The contracts assets are transferred to receivables when the rights become unconditional. Contract liabilities primarily relate to contracts where advance payments or deposits have been received, but performance obligations have not yet been satisfied and revenue has not been recognized. No significant contract assets or liabilities were identified upon adoption of ASC606 or at March 31, 2019. As described above, the issuance of a purchase order and/or a materials release by the customer represents the point at which an enforceable contract with the customer exists. Therefore, Adient has elected to apply the practical expedient in ASC 606, paragraph 606-10-50-14 and does not disclose information about the remaining performance obligations that have an original expected duration of one year or less.

3. Acquisitions and Divestitures

Acquisitions

Adient's consolidated affiliate, Adient Aerospace, LLC ("Adient Aerospace"), became operational on October 11, 2018 after securing regulatory approvals. Adient's ownership position in Adient Aerospace is 50.01%. Adient Aerospace will develop, manufacture, and sell a portfolio of seating products to airlines and aircraft leasing companies for installation on Boeing and other OEM commercial airplanes, for both production line-fit and retrofit configurations. Adient Aerospace's results are included within the Americas segment. Initial contributions of $28 million were made during the first quarter of fiscal 2019 by each JV partner.

Assets Held for Sale

During fiscal 2018, Adient committed to a plan to sell its Detroit, Michigan properties and its airplanes and actively marketed the sale of these assets. As a result, these assets were classified as assets held for sale and were required to be adjusted to the lower of fair value less cost to sell or carrying value. This resulted in an impairment charge of $49 million which was recorded within restructuring and impairment costs on the consolidated statement of income (loss) during fiscal 2018, of which $39 million related to Americas assets and $10 million related to corporate assets. The impairment was measured using third party sales pricing to determine fair values of the assets. The inputs utilized in the analyses are classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy as defined in ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement." During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018, one airplane was sold for $36 million. During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, both the Detroit, Michigan properties and remaining airplane were sold for approximately $35 million.

5. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows:

(in millions)		Americas				EMEA				Asia				Total
Balance at September 30, 2018		$	642			$	469			$	1,071			$	2,182
Currency translation and other		—				(29		)		12				(17		)
Balance at March 31, 2019		$	642			$	440			$	1,083			$	2,165

During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, Adient began reporting three new segments: 1) Americas, which is inclusive of North America and South America; 2) Europe, Middle East, and Africa ("EMEA") and 3) Asia Pacific/China ("Asia"). Accordingly, goodwill previously reported in the former Seating segment has been reallocated to the three new segments on a relative fair value basis. Refer to Note 14, "Segment Information" for more information on Adient's reportable segments.

Adient evaluates its goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, or as facts and circumstances warrant. As a result of the change in reportable segments during the second quarter of fiscal 2019, Adient conducted goodwill impairment analyses of the newly allocated goodwill balances under the new reportable segment structure. Adient performs impairment reviews for its reporting units, which have been determined to be Adient's reportable segments, using a fair value method based on management's judgments and assumptions or third party valuations. The fair value of a reporting unit refers to the price that would be received to sell the unit as a whole in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Adient estimated the fair value of each of its reporting units using a discounted cash flow analysis approach, which utilized Level 3 unobservable inputs. These calculations contain uncertainties as they require management to make assumptions about market comparables, future cash flows, the appropriate discount rates (based on weighted average cost of capital ranging from 14.5%-17.5%) and growth rates to reflect the risk inherent in the future cash flows. The estimated future cash flows reflect management's latest assumptions of the financial projections based on current and anticipated competitive landscape and product profitability based on historical trends. A change in any of these estimates and assumptions could produce a different fair value, which could have a material impact on Adient's results of operations. As a result of the analyses, Adient determined that no goodwill was impaired.

Adient's other intangible assets, primarily from business acquisitions valued based on independent appraisals, consisted of:

		March 31, 2019												September 30, 2018
(in millions)		Gross Carrying Amount				Accumulated Amortization				Net				Gross Carrying Amount				Accumulated Amortization				Net

Amortization of other intangible assets for the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $20 million and $24 million, respectively.

6. Product Warranties

Adient offers warranties to its customers depending upon the specific product and terms of the customer purchase agreement. A typical warranty program requires that Adient replace defective products within a specified time period from the date of sale. Adient records an estimate for future warranty-related costs based on actual historical return rates and other known factors. Based on analysis of return rates and other factors, Adient's warranty provisions are adjusted as necessary. Adient monitors its warranty activity and adjusts its reserve estimates when it is probable that future warranty costs will be different than those estimates. Adient's product warranty liability is recorded in the consolidated statements of financial position in other current liabilities.

The changes in Adient's total product warranty liability are as follows:

		Six Months Ended March 31,
(in millions)		2019				2018
Balance at beginning of period		$	11			$	19
Accruals for warranties issued during the period		9				2
Changes in accruals related to pre-existing warranties (including changes in estimates)		10				(2		)
Settlements made (in cash or in kind) during the period		(6		)		(3		)
Balance at end of period		$	24			$	16

In the second quarter of fiscal 2019, Adient recorded $7 million of warranty expense to correct a prior period error related to incurred but not yet reported warranty expense. Adient has concluded that this adjustment was not material to previously reported financial statements nor to current or estimated full year fiscal 2019 results.

7. Debt and Financing Arrangements

Long-term debt consisted of the following:

On July 27, 2016, Adient Global Holdings Ltd ("AGH"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Adient, entered into a credit agreement providing for commitments with respect to a $1.5 billion revolving credit facility (undrawn at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively) and a $1.5 billion Term Loan A facility (the "Original Credit Facilities"). The Original Credit Facilities mature in July 2021. Until the Term Loan A facility maturity date, amortization of the funded Term Loan A is required in an amount per quarter equal to 1.25% of the original principal amount prior to July 27, 2019 and 2.5% in each quarter thereafter prior to final maturity. The Original Credit Facilities contain covenants that include, among other things and subject to certain significant exceptions, restrictions on Adient's ability to declare or pay dividends, make certain payments in respect of the notes, create liens, incur additional indebtedness, make investments, engage in transactions with affiliates, enter into agreements restricting Adient's subsidiaries' ability to pay dividends, dispose of assets and merge or consolidate with any other person. The Term Loan A facility

Adient plc | Form 10-Q | 15

---

also requires mandatory prepayments in connection with certain non-ordinary course asset sales and insurance recovery and condemnation events, among other things, and subject in each case to certain significant exceptions.

On November 6, 2018, Adient entered into an amendment to the Original Credit Facilities (“First Amended Credit Facilities") whereby the financial maintenance covenant was amended to require Adient to maintain a total net leverage ratio equal to or less than 4.5x adjusted EBITDA (previously 3.5x adjusted EBITDA), with step down provisions starting in the quarter ending December 31, 2020. The amendment also expanded the upper range of interest rate margins such that the drawn portion of the First Amended Credit Facilities will bear interest based on LIBOR plus a margin between 1.25% - 2.50% (previously 1.25% - 2.25%), based on Adient’s total net leverage ratio. No other terms were impacted by the first amendment. On February 6, 2019, Adient entered into an amendment to the First Amended Credit Facilities (“Second Amended Credit Facilities") whereby the financial maintenance covenant contained in the First Amended Credit Facilities was amended to require Adient to maintain a first lien secured net leverage ratio equal to or less than 2.5x adjusted EBITDA as of the last day of each quarter, with step down provisions starting on September 30, 2020. The amendment also added a new tier to the pricing schedule that will be applicable when the total net leverage ratio exceeds 4.0x adjusted EBITDA and amended certain other definitions, negative covenants and other terms within the credit facility.

The full amount of the Term Loan A facility was drawn in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. These funds were transferred to the former Parent at the time of the draw and were reflected within net transfers to the former Parent in the consolidated statement of cash flow during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. In February 2017, Adient repaid $100 million of the Term Loan A facility. In May 2017, Adient repaid another $200 million of the Term Loan A facility. The total amount repaid was treated as a prepayment of the quarterly mandatory principle amortization for the period between March 2017 and June 2020 resulting in no required principal payment until June 2020.

AGH will pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the commitments under the revolving credit facility based on the total net leverage ratio of Adient, ranging from 0.15% to 0.45%.

On August 19, 2016, AGH issued $0.9 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.875% USD-denominated unsecured notes due 2026 and €1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 3.50% unsecured notes due 2024, in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The proceeds of the notes were used, together with the Term Loan A facility, to pay a distribution to the former Parent, with the remaining proceeds used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

On May 29, 2017, Adient Germany Ltd. & Co. KG, a wholly owned subsidiary of Adient, borrowed €165 million in an unsecured term loan from the European Investment Bank due in 2022. The loan bears interest at the 6-month EURIBOR rate plus 90 basis points. Loan proceeds were used to repay $200 million of the Term Loan A facility.

New debt arrangements

On May 6, 2019 (the “Refinancing Date”), Adient US LLC ("Adient US"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Adient, together with certain of Adient's other subsidiaries entered into a new asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Credit Facility”), which provides for a revolving line of credit up to $1,250 million, including a North American subfacility of up to $950 million and a European subfacility of up to $300 million, subject to borrowing base capacity. The ABL Credit Facility will mature on May 6, 2024, subject to a springing maturity date 91 days earlier if certain amounts remain outstanding at that time under the New Term Loan Credit Agreement (defined below). Interest is payable on the ABL Credit Facility at a fluctuating rate of interest determined by reference to the Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin of 1.50% to 2.00%. Adient will pay a commitment fee of 0.25% to 0.375% on the unused portion of the commitments under the asset-based revolving credit facility based on average global availability. Letters of credit are limited to the lesser of (x) $150 million and (y) the aggregate unused amount of commitments under the ABL Credit Facility then in effect. Subject to certain conditions, the ABL Credit Facility may be expanded by up to $250 million in additional commitments. Loans under the ABL Credit Facility may be denominated, at the option of Adient, in U.S. dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling or Swedish Kroner. The ABL Credit Agreement is secured on a first-priority lien on all accounts receivable, inventory and bank accounts (and funds on deposit therein) and a second-priority lien on all of the tangible and intangible assets of certain Adient subsidiaries.

In addition, Adient US and Adient Global Holdings S.à r.l., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adient, entered into a new term loan credit agreement (the “New Term Loan Credit Agreement”) on the Refinancing Date providing for a 5-year $800 million senior secured term loan facility that was fully drawn on closing. The New Term Loan Credit Agreement amortizes in equal quarterly installments at a rate of 1.00% per annum of the original principal amount thereof, with the remaining balance due at final maturity on May 6, 2024. Interest on the New Term Loan Credit Agreement accrues at the Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin equal to 4.25% (with one 0.25% step down based on achievement of a specific secured net leverage level starting with the fiscal quarter

Adient plc | Form 10-Q | 16

---

ending December 31, 2019). The New Term Loan Credit Agreement also permits Adient to incur incremental term loans in an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of $750 million and an unlimited amount subject to a pro forma first lien secured net leverage ratio of not greater than 1.75 to 1.00 and certain other conditions.

Finally, on the Refinancing Date, Adient US entered into an indenture relating to the issuance of $800 million aggregate principal amount of Senior First Lien Notes (the “Notes”). The Notes mature on May 15, 2026 and bear interest at a rate of 7.00% per annum. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on November 15 and May 15 of each year, commencing on November 15, 2019.

The proceeds from the transactions described above were used to repay the outstanding indebtedness and terminate commitments under Adient’s existing credit agreement, which was scheduled to mature in July 2021. In addition, certain proceeds were used (i) to pay related premiums, fees and expenses in connection with the refinancing and entering into and funding of the new credit facilities and (ii) for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

The ABL Credit Agreement, New Term Loan Credit Agreement and the Indenture contain covenants that are usual and customary for facilities and transactions of this type and that, among other things, restrict the ability of Adient and its restricted subsidiaries to: create certain liens and enter into sale and lease-back transactions; create, assume, incur or guarantee certain indebtedness; pay dividends or make other distributions on, or repurchase or redeem, Adient’s capital stock or certain other debt; make other restricted payments; and consolidate or merge with, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of Adient’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ assets, to another person. These covenants are subject to a number of other limitations and exceptions set forth in the agreements. The agreements also provide for customary events of default, including, but not limited to, failure to pay principal and interest, failure to comply with covenants, agreements or conditions, and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency involving Adient and its significant subsidiaries.

8. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Adient selectively uses derivative instruments to reduce Adient's market risk associated with changes in foreign currency. Under Adient's policy, the use of derivatives is restricted to those intended for hedging purposes; the use of any derivative instrument for speculative purposes is strictly prohibited. A description of each type of derivative utilized to manage Adient's risk is included in the following paragraphs. In addition, refer to Note 9, "Fair Value Measurements," of the notes to consolidated financial statements for information related to the fair value measurements and valuation methods utilized by Adient for each derivative type.

Adient has global operations and participates in the foreign exchange markets to minimize its risk of loss from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Adient primarily uses foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge certain foreign exchange rate exposures. Adient hedges 70% to 90% of the nominal amount of each of its known foreign exchange transactional exposures. Gains and losses on derivative contracts offset gains and losses on underlying foreign currency exposures. These contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges under ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging," and the effective portion of the hedge gains or losses due to changes in fair value are initially recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) and are subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged transactions occur and affect earnings. Any ineffective portion of the hedge is reflected in the consolidated statements of income. These contracts were highly effective in hedging the variability in future cash flows attributable to changes in currency exchange rates at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively.

Adient selectively uses equity swaps to reduce market risk associated with certain of its stock-based compensation plans, such as its deferred compensation plans. The equity swaps are recorded at fair value. Changes in fair value of the equity swaps are reflected in the consolidated statements of income within selling, general and administrative expenses. No equity swaps were outstanding as of March 31, 2019.

As of March 31, 2019, the €1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 3.50% euro-denominated unsecured notes due 2024 was designated as a net investment hedge to selectively hedge portions of Adient's net investment in Europe. The currency effects of Adient's euro-denominated bonds are reflected in AOCI account within shareholders' equity attributable to Adient where they offset gains and losses recorded on Adient's net investment in Europe.

Adient entered into cross-currency interest rate swaps during fiscal 2018 to selectively hedge portions of its net investment in Europe. The currency effects of the cross-currency interest rate swaps are reflected in the AOCI account within shareholders' equity attributable to Adient, where they offset gains and losses recorded on Adient's net investment in Europe. As of March 31, 2019, Adient had two cross-currency interest rate swaps outstanding totaling approximately €160 million designated as net investment hedges in Adient's net investment in Europe. Both cross-currency interest rate swaps are set to mature in March 2020.

Adient entered into a 970 million Chinese yuan foreign exchange forward contract during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 to selectively hedge portions of its net investment in China. The currency effects of the forward contract are reflected in the AOCI account within shareholder’s equity attributable to Adient, where they offset gains and losses recorded on Adient’s net investment in China. The forward contract is set to mature in June 2019.

The following table presents the location and fair values of derivative instruments and other amounts used in hedging activities included in Adient's consolidated statements of financial position:

Adient enters into International Swaps and Derivatives Associations (ISDA) master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the net settlement of amounts owed under the derivative contracts. The master netting agreements generally provide for net settlement of all outstanding contracts with a counterparty in the case of an event of default or a termination event. Adient has not elected to offset the fair value positions of the derivative contracts recorded in the consolidated statements of financial position. Collateral is generally not required of Adient or the counterparties under the master netting agreements. As of both March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, no cash collateral was received or pledged under the master netting agreements.

9. Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement," defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes information used in developing assumptions when pricing an asset or liability as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3: Unobservable inputs where there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

ASC 820 requires the use of observable market data, when available, in making fair value measurements. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The following tables present Adient's fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value:

Valuation Methods

Foreign currency exchange derivatives Adient selectively hedges anticipated transactions that are subject to foreign exchange rate risk primarily using foreign currency exchange hedge contracts. The foreign currency exchange derivatives are valued under a market approach using publicized spot and forward prices. Changes in fair value on foreign exchange derivatives accounted for as hedging instruments under ASC 815 are initially recorded as a component of AOCI and are subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged transactions occur and affect earnings. These contracts were highly effective in hedging the variability in future cash flows attributable to changes in currency exchange rates at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively. The changes in fair value of foreign currency exchange derivatives not designated as hedging instruments under ASC 815 are recorded in the consolidated statements of income.

Equity swaps Adient selectively uses equity swaps to reduce market risk associated with certain of its stock-based compensation plans, such as its deferred compensation plans. The equity swaps are recorded at fair value. Changes in fair value of the equity swaps are reflected in the consolidated statements of income within selling, general and administrative expenses.

Cross-currency interest rate swaps Adient selectively uses cross-currency interest rate swaps to hedge portions of its net investment in Europe.

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, short-term debt and accounts payable approximate their carrying values. The fair value of long-term debt, which was $2.8 billion and $3.3 billion at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively, was determined primarily using market quotes classified as Level 1 inputs within the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy.

12. Restructuring and Impairment Costs

Restructuring Costs

To better align its resources with its overall strategies and reduce the cost structure of its global operations to address the softness in certain underlying markets, Adient commits to restructuring plans as necessary.

During fiscal 2019, Adient committed to a restructuring plan ("2019 Plan") of $80 million that was offset by $8 million of underspend in prior years. Of the restructuring costs recorded, $61 million relates to the EMEA segment, $13 million relates to the Americas segment and $6 million relates to the Asia segment. The restructuring actions relate to cost reduction initiatives and consist primarily of workforce reductions. The restructuring actions are expected to be substantially completed by fiscal 2019.

The following table summarizes the changes in Adient's 2019 Plan reserve:

(in millions)		Employee Severance and Termination Benefits
Original Reserve		$	80
Utilized—cash		(13		)
Balance at March 31, 2019		$	67

In fiscal 2018, Adient committed to a restructuring plan ("2018 Plan") of $71 million that was offset by $20 million of underspend in the 2016 Plan and $7 million of underspend related to other plan years. Of the restructuring costs recorded, $52 million relates to the EMEA segment, $10 million relates to the Asia segment and $9 million relates to the Americas segment. This is the total amount expected to be incurred for this restructuring plan. The restructuring actions relate to cost reduction initiatives and consist primarily of workforce reductions. The restructuring actions are expected to be substantially completed by fiscal 2019.

In fiscal 2017, Adient committed to a restructuring plan ("2017 Plan") and recorded $46 million of restructuring and impairment costs in the consolidated statements of income. Of the restructuring costs recorded, $34 million relates to the EMEA segment, $7 million relates to the Americas segment and $5 million relates to the Asia segment. This is the total amount expected to be incurred for this restructuring plan. The restructuring actions relate to cost reduction initiatives and consist primarily of workforce reductions and plant closures. The restructuring actions are expected to be substantially complete in fiscal 2019.

Balance at March 31, 2019		$	3

In fiscal 2016, Adient committed to a restructuring plan ("2016 Plan") and recorded $332 million of restructuring and impairment costs in the consolidated statements of income. This is the total amount expected to be incurred for this restructuring plan. The restructuring actions relate to cost reduction initiatives and consist primarily of workforce reductions, plant closures and asset impairments. Of the restructuring and impairment costs recorded, $298 million relates to the EMEA segment, $32 million relates to the Americas segment and $2 million relates to the Asia segment. The asset impairment charge recorded during fiscal 2016 related primarily to information technology assets within the EMEA segment that will not be used going forward by Adient. The restructuring actions are expected to be substantially complete in fiscal 2021.

Since the announcement of the 2016 Plan in fiscal 2016, Adient has experienced lower employee severance and termination benefit cash payouts than previously calculated of approximately $20 million, due to changes in cost reduction actions. The planned workforce reductions disclosed for the 2016 Plan have been updated for Adient's revised actions.

The following table summarizes the changes in Adient's 2016 Plan reserve:

Adient plc | Form 10-Q | 25

Adient's fiscal 2019, 2018, 2017 and 2016 restructuring plans included workforce reductions of approximately 7,300. Restructuring charges associated with employee severance and termination benefits are paid over the severance period granted to each employee or on a lump sum basis in accordance with individual severance agreements. As of March 31, 2019, approximately 5,000 of the employees have been separated from Adient pursuant to the restructuring plans. In addition, the restructuring plans included fifteen plant closures. As of March 31, 2019, eleven of the fifteen plants have been closed.

Adient's management closely monitors its overall cost structure and continually analyzes each of its businesses for opportunities to consolidate current operations, improve operating efficiencies and locate facilities in low cost countries in close proximity to customers. This ongoing analysis includes a review of its manufacturing, engineering, purchasing and administrative functions, as well as the overall global footprint for all its businesses. Because of the importance of new vehicle sales by major automotive manufacturers to operations, Adient is affected by the general business conditions in the automotive industry. Future adverse developments in the automotive industry could impact Adient's liquidity position, lead to impairment charges and/or require additional restructuring of its operations.

Impairment

In the second quarter of fiscal 2019, Adient concluded it had a triggering event requiring assessment of impairment for certain of its former SS&M segment long-lived assets within the EMEA ($55 million) and Americas ($11 million) segments due to declines in actual and forecasted performance that worsened during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 as compared to originally forecasted results. As a result, Adient reviewed the long-lived assets for impairment and recorded a $66 million non-cash pre-tax impairment charge within restructuring and impairment costs on the consolidated statements of income (loss). The impairment charge related to long-lived assets in North America and Europe asset groups in support of current programs. Of the $66 million impairment charge, $62 million relates to fixed assets, and $4 million relates to customer relationships. The impairment was measured under a market approach utilizing appraisal techniques to determine fair values of the impaired assets. This method is consistent with methods Adient employed in prior periods to value other long-lived assets. The inputs utilized in the analysis are classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy as defined in ASC 820, "Fair value measurement" and primarily consist of estimated salable values and third party appraisal techniques such as market comparables. To the extent that the profitability on current or future programs decline as compared to forecasted profitability or if adverse changes occur to key assumptions or other fair value measurement inputs, further impairment of long-lived assets could occur in the future. During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, impairments of $6 million were recorded related to assets held for sale.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2018, in conjunction with a change in segment reporting at that time, a $299 million goodwill impairment charge was recorded related to the former SS&M segment.

13. Income Taxes

In calculating the provision for income taxes, Adient uses an estimate of the annual effective tax rate based upon the facts and circumstances known at each interim period. On a quarterly basis, the actual effective tax rate is adjusted, as appropriate, based on changes in facts and circumstances, if any, as compared to those forecasted at the beginning of the fiscal year and each interim period thereafter. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2019, Adient’s income tax expense (benefit) was $64 million equating to an effective tax rate of (103%) and $74 million equating to an effective tax rate of (180%), respectively. The three and six month income tax expense was higher than the statutory rate impact of 12.5% primarily due to the recognition of a valuation allowance in Poland and the impact of recognizing no tax benefit for losses in jurisdictions with valuation allowances. The six month income tax expense was partially offset by a tax rate change benefit in China. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, Adient’s income tax expense (benefit) was $(28) million equating to an effective tax rate of 16% and $237 million equating to an effective tax rate of (232%), respectively. The three month income tax benefit was higher than the statutory rate impact of 12.5% primarily due to the goodwill impairment charge and foreign exchange. The six month income tax expense was higher than the statutory rate impact primarily due to the charge to recognize the impact of the U.S. tax reform legislation.

Valuation Allowances

As a result of Adient's second quarter fiscal 2019 analysis of the realizability of its worldwide deferred tax assets, and after considering tax planning initiatives and other positive and negative evidence (including the long-lived asset impairment recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2019), Adient determined that it was more likely than not that deferred tax assets within certain Poland entities would not be realized and recorded a net income tax expense of $43 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 to establish a valuation allowance.

Adient plc | Form 10-Q | 26

---

Adient reviews the realizability of its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that a review is required. In determining the requirement for a valuation allowance, the historical and projected financial results of the legal entity or combined group recording the net deferred tax asset are considered, along with any other positive or negative evidence. All of the factors that Adient considers in evaluating whether and when to establish or release all or a portion of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance involve significant judgment.

Since future financial results may differ from previous estimates, periodic adjustments to Adient's valuation allowances may be necessary. As a result of the external refinancing that occurred in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, Adient will reevaluate its internal financing structure. Adient may conclude that it is more likely than not that a material portion of our deferred tax assets will not be realized as a result of this evaluation. As such, it is possible that a change to valuation allowances in certain jurisdictions may result in a material increase to income tax expense during the next twelve months. In addition, the effective tax rate in subsequent periods would also increase.

Uncertain Tax Positions

At March 31, 2019, Adient had gross tax effected unrecognized tax benefits of $280 million. If recognized, $131 million of Adient's unrecognized tax benefits would impact the effective tax rate. Total net accrued interest at March 31, 2019 was approximately $8 million (net of tax benefit). The interest and penalties accrued during the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 was not material. Adient recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.

Impacts of Tax Legislation and Change in Statutory Tax Rates

During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, Adient completed its accounting for the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act Base Erosion and Anti-avoidance Tax valuation allowance resulting in no change to the $100 million income tax impact estimated in fiscal 2018.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, Guangzhou Adient Automotive Seating Co., Ltd. ("GAAS”) was approved for High and New Tech Enterprise status for the three-year period of 2018 to 2020, thereby reducing their tax rate from 25% to 15%. As a result, a $7 million income tax benefit was recorded on the reduction of deferred tax liabilities and a reduction of 2018 calendar year income taxes.

Other tax legislation was adopted during the quarter in various jurisdictions, which did not have a material impact on Adient’s consolidated financial statements.

Other Tax Matters

During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, Adient recognized a pre-tax impairment charge on long-lived assets of $66 million. Refer to Note 12 "Restructuring and Impairment Costs," of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for additional information. The tax benefit associated with the impairment charge was $2 million, which was negatively impacted by geographic mix and Adient’s current tax position in these jurisdictions.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2018, Adient recognized a pre-tax goodwill impairment charge of $299 million related to the former SS&M segment. Refer to Note 12, "Restructuring and Impairment Costs," of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for additional information. The tax benefit associated with the goodwill impairment charge was $20 million.

14. Segment Information

During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, Adient realigned certain of its organizational structure to manage its business primarily on a geographic basis, resulting in a change to reportable segments. Prior period segment information has been recast to align with this change in organizational structure and the updated definition of corporate-related costs. Pursuant to this change, Adient now operates in the following three reportable segments for financial reporting purposes: 1) Americas, which is inclusive of North America and South America; 2) Europe, Middle East, and Africa ("EMEA") and 3) Asia Pacific/China ("Asia").

Adient evaluates the performance of its reportable segments using an adjusted EBITDA metric defined as income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests, excluding net financing charges, qualified restructuring and impairment costs, restructuring related-costs, incremental "Becoming Adient" costs, separation costs, net mark-to-market adjustments on pension and postretirement plans, transaction gains/losses, purchase accounting amortization, depreciation, stock-based compensation and other non-recurring items ("Adjusted EBITDA"). Also, certain corporate-related costs are not allocated to the segments. The reportable segments are consistent with how management views the markets served by Adient and reflect the financial information that is reviewed by its chief operating decision maker. Adient has three reportable segments for financial reporting purposes:

Financial information relating to Adient's reportable segments is as follows:

Notes

(1) The presentation of certain amounts has been revised from what was previously reported to retrospectively adopt Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2017-07, "Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Cost" as of October 1, 2018. See Note 1, "Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," for more information.

(2) Corporate-related costs not allocated to the segments include executive office, communications, corporate development, legal and finance.

(3) Reflects incremental expenses associated with becoming an independent company. Includes non-cash costs of $5 million and $11 million in the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, respectively.

(4) Reflects qualified restructuring charges for costs that are directly attributable to restructuring activities and meet the definition of restructuring under ASC 420 and non-recurring impairment charges.

(5) Reflects amortization of intangible assets including those related to partially owned affiliates recorded within equity income. As a result of the fiscal year 2018 YFAI impairment, the intangible assets related to YFAI were deemed to be fully impaired and thus no longer amortized.

(6) Reflects restructuring related charges for costs that are directly attributable to restructuring activities, but do not meet the definition of restructuring under ASC 420.

(7) For the six months ended March 31, 2018, stock based compensation excludes $8 million, which is included in Becoming Adient costs discussed above.

(8) For the six months ended March 31, 2018, depreciation excludes $4 million, which is included in restructuring related charges discussed above.

(9) The three and six months ended March 31, 2019 reflects $2 million and $3 million of Futuris integration costs, respectively. The three months ended March 31, 2018 includes $7 million of Futuris integration costs, $8 million of prior period adjustments, $7 million of non-recurring consulting fees related to the former SS&M segment. The six months ended March 31, 2018 also includes $8 million for the U.S tax reform impact at YFAI and $6 million of integration-related costs associated with Futuris. In addition, for both the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, $6 million of other non-recurring income that was reclassified to other pension income upon adoption of ASU 2017-07.

16. Commitments and Contingencies

Adient accrues for potential environmental liabilities when it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability is reasonably estimable. Reserves for environmental liabilities totaled $10 million and $8 million at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively. Adient reviews the status of its environmental sites on a quarterly basis and adjusts its reserves accordingly. Such potential liabilities accrued by Adient do not take into consideration possible recoveries of future insurance proceeds. They do, however, take into account the likely share other parties will bear at remediation sites. It is difficult to estimate Adient's ultimate level of liability at many remediation sites due to the large number of other parties that may be involved, the complexity of determining the relative liability among those parties, the uncertainty as to the nature and scope of the investigations and remediation to be conducted, the uncertainty in the application of law and risk assessment, the various choices and costs associated with diverse technologies that may be used in corrective actions at the sites, and the often quite lengthy periods over which eventual remediation may occur. Nevertheless, Adient does not currently believe that any claims, penalties or costs in connection with known environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on Adient's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Adient is involved in various lawsuits, claims and proceedings incident to the operation of its businesses, including those pertaining to product liability, casualty environmental, safety and health, intellectual property, employment, commercial and contractual matters, and various other matters. Although the outcome of any such lawsuit, claim or proceeding cannot be predicted with certainty and some may be disposed of unfavorably to Adient, it is management's opinion that none of these will have a material adverse effect on Adient's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Costs related to such matters were not material to the periods presented.

17. Related Party Transactions

In the ordinary course of business, Adient enters into transactions with related parties, such as equity affiliates. Such transactions consist of the sale or purchase of goods and other arrangements. Subsequent to the separation, transactions with the former Parent and its businesses represent third-party transactions.

Financial Results Summary

Significant aspects of Adient's financial results for the three and six months ended of fiscal 2019 include the following:

•

Adient recorded net sales of $4,228 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2019, representing a decrease of $368 million when compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2018. The decrease in net sales is primarily due to the unfavorable foreign currency impact and lower volumes primarily in EMEA and Asia. Adient recorded net sales of $8,386 million for the first six months of fiscal 2019, representing a decrease of $414 million when compared to the first six months of fiscal 2018. The decrease in net sales is primarily due to the unfavorable foreign currency impact and lower volumes in EMEA and Asia, partially offset by higher volumes in the Americas.

•

Gross profit was $197 million, or 4.7% of net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to $282 million, or 6.1% of net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2018. Gross profit was $377 million, or 4.5% of net sales for the first six months of fiscal 2019 compared to $483 million, or 5.5% of net sales for the first six months of fiscal 2018. Profitability, including gross profit as a percentage of net sales, was lower primarily due to ongoing business performance issues in the Americas and EMEA.

•

Equity income was $62 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2019, which compared to equity income of $85 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2018. Equity income was $145 million for the first six months of fiscal 2019, compared to equity income of $181 million for the first six months of fiscal 2018. These decreases were primarily attributable to overall lower sales within certain China affiliates along with ongoing operating performance issues at YFAI.

•

Net loss attributable to Adient was $149 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to $168 million of net loss attributable to Adient for the second quarter of fiscal 2018. The net loss in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 is primarily attributable to the $64 million net-of-tax long-lived asset impairment charge, the net $43 million income tax charge to establish a valuation allowance in Poland, overall lower levels of profitability and lower equity income, partially offset by lower levels of administrative costs. Net loss attributable to Adient was $166 million for the first six months of fiscal 2019, compared to $384 million of net loss attributable to Adient for the first six months of fiscal 2018. The year over year decrease in net loss attributable to Adient is primarily attributable to higher one-time costs in the prior year related to goodwill impairment ($279 million, net of tax) and the impact of the 2018 U.S. tax reform legislation ($258 million).

Net sales		$	4,228			-8%		$	4,596			$	8,386			-5%		$	8,800

Net sales decreased by $368 million, or 8%, in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2018 primarily due to an unfavorable foreign currency impact of $200 million, and lower volumes in all regions although primarily in EMEA and Asia in line with broader automotive industry trends. Refer to the segment analysis below for a discussion of segment net sales.

Net sales decreased by $414 million, or 5%, in the first six months of fiscal 2019 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2018 primarily due to the unfavorable foreign currency impact of $294 million and lower volumes in EMEA and Asia, partially offset by higher volumes in the Americas, in line with broader automotive industry trends.

Cost of sales decreased by $283 million, or 7%, and gross profit decreased by $85 million, or 30%, in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2018. Cost of sales was impacted favorably by the impact of foreign currency ($175 million), a reduction in depreciation expense ($20 million), prior year Becoming Adient costs ($15 million) and volume decreases, partially offset by continued business performance issues related to launch inefficiencies within the Americas and EMEA, along with higher freight and higher operational waste. These ongoing performance issues also resulted in a year-over-year decline of gross profit as a percentage of net sales. Refer to the segment analysis below for a discussion of segment profitability.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) decreased by $25 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2018. SG&A was favorably impacted by lower net engineering costs ($10 million), prior year Becoming Adient costs ($4 million), favorability in equity based compensation ($9 million), lower depreciation expense ($5 million) and a favorable impact of foreign currency ($7 million), partially offset by reestablishing certain discretionary spending, primarily incentive compensation, in the current year. Refer to the segment analysis below for a discussion of segment profitability.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) decreased by $43 million in the first six months of fiscal 2019 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2018. SG&A was favorably impacted by lower net engineering costs ($31 million), prior year Becoming Adient costs ($10 million), favorability in equity based compensation ($12 million), lower depreciation expense ($11 million) and a favorable impact of foreign currency ($11 million), partially offset by reestablishing certain discretionary spending, primarily incentive compensation, in the current year.

Restructuring and impairment costs		$	113			-64%		$	315			$	144			-54%		$	315

The decrease in restructuring and impairment costs in both the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019 as compared to the same periods in the previous year were primarily due to the prior year $299 million goodwill impairment charge associated with the former SS&M segment, partially offset by the three and six month current year net restructuring charges ($47 million and $72 million, respectively) and the net-of-tax long lived asset impairment charge of $64 million. Refer to Note 12, "Restructuring and Impairment Costs," of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for information related to Adient's restructuring plans and recent impairment charges.

Equity income (loss)		$	62			-27%		$	85			$	145			-20%		$	181

Equity income was $62 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2019, which is $23 million lower compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2018. The decrease was primarily attributable to overall lower sales within Adient's China affiliates along with ongoing operating performance issues at YFAI and the unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation of $5 million.

Equity income was $145 million for the first six months of fiscal 2019, which is $36 million lower compared to the first six months of fiscal 2018.

Net financing charges		$	40			8%		$	37			$	75			7%		$	70

Net financing charges increased in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2019 as compared to the same periods in 2018 due to higher average interest rates in applicable periods on similar levels of outstanding debt. Refer to Note 7, "Debt and Financing Arrangements" of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for information related to the components of Adient's net financing charges.

Income tax provision (benefit)		$	64			*		$	(28	)		$	74			-69%		$	237

* Measure not meaningful

The second quarter of fiscal 2019 income tax expense of $64 million primarily resulted from a net income tax charge of $43 million to establish a valuation allowance in Poland and the impact of recognizing no tax benefits for losses in jurisdictions with valuation allowances.

The first six months of fiscal 2019 income tax expense of $74 million resulted primarily from establishing the Poland valuation allowance and the impact of recognizing no tax benefit for losses in jurisdictions with valuation allowances, partially offset by a tax rate change at a consolidated affiliate in China. The year over year decrease in income tax expense is primarily attributable to the prior year tax charge of $258 million related to the impact of the 2018 U.S. tax reform legislation.

Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

The decrease in income attributable to noncontrolling interests for the second quarter of fiscal 2019 when compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily attributable to lower income resulting from lower volumes at certain EMEA affiliates, partially offset by higher income at certain Americas and Asia affiliates.

The increase in income attributable to noncontrolling interests for the first six months of fiscal 2019 when compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily attributable to higher income resulting from higher volumes at certain Americas and Asia affiliates, partially offset by lower income at certain EMEA affiliates.

Net income (loss) attributable to Adient		$	(149	)		-11%		$	(168	)		$	(166	)		-57%		$	(384	)

Net loss attributable to Adient was $149 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to $168 million of net loss attributable to Adient for the second quarter of fiscal 2018. The net loss in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 is primarily attributable to the $64 million to the net-of-tax long-lived asset impairment charge, the net $43 million income tax charge to establish a valuation allowance in Poland, overall lower levels of profitability and lower equity income, partially offset by lower levels of administrative costs.

Net loss attributable to Adient was $166 million for the first six months of fiscal 2019 compared to $384 million of net loss attributable to Adient for the first six months of fiscal 2018. The year over year decrease in net loss attributable to Adient is primarily attributable to higher one-time costs in the prior year related to goodwill impairment ($279 million, net of tax) and the impact of the 2018 U.S. tax reform legislation ($258 million).

* Measure not meaningful

Comprehensive loss attributable to Adient was $110 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to comprehensive loss attributable to Adient for the second quarter of fiscal 2018 of $26 million. The increase in comprehensive loss attributable to Adient for the second quarter of fiscal 2019 was primarily due to reduced comprehensive income resulting from foreign currency translation adjustments ($103 million) which was primarily driven by weaker Chinese yuan against the U.S. dollar. This was partially offset by reduced net loss attributable to Adient ($19 million).

Comprehensive loss attributable to Adient was $114 million for the first six months of fiscal 2019 compared to comprehensive loss attributable to Adient for the first six months of fiscal 2018 of $181 million. The decrease in comprehensive loss attributable to Adient for the first six months of fiscal 2019 was primarily due to reduced net losses attributable to Adient of $218 million offset by unfavorable year-over-year impact of foreign currency ($162 million). The year-over-year unfavorable foreign currency impact was primarily driven by the weakening of the Chinese yuan against the U.S. dollar.

Segment Analysis

During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, Adient realigned certain of its organizational structure to manage its business primarily on a geographic basis, resulting in a change to reportable segments. Prior period segment information has been recast to align with this change in organizational structure and the updated definition of corporate-related costs. Pursuant to this change, Adient now operates in the following three reportable segments for financial reporting purposes: 1) Americas, which is inclusive of North America and South America; 2) Europe, Middle East, and Africa ("EMEA") and 3) Asia Pacific/China ("Asia").

Adient evaluates the performance of its reportable segments using an adjusted EBITDA metric defined as income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests, excluding net financing charges, qualified restructuring and impairment costs, restructuring related-costs, incremental "Becoming Adient" costs, separation costs, net mark-to-market adjustments on pension and postretirement plans, transaction gains/losses, purchase accounting amortization, depreciation, stock-based compensation and other non-recurring items ("Adjusted EBITDA"). Also, certain corporate-related costs are not allocated to the segments. The reportable segments are consistent with how management views the markets served by Adient and reflect the financial information that is reviewed by its chief operating decision maker. Adient has three reportable segments for financial reporting purposes:

Financial information relating to Adient's reportable segments is as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Adient's primary liquidity needs are to fund general business requirements, including working capital, capital expenditures, restructuring costs and debt service requirements. Adient's principal sources of liquidity are the revolving credit facility and other debt issuances, and existing cash balances. Funding also previously came from the former Parent through October 31, 2016 and as part of the separation agreement. Adient actively manages its working capital and associated cash requirements and continually seeks more effective uses of cash. Working capital is highly influenced by the timing of cash flows associated with sales and purchases, and therefore can be somewhat volatile. Adient had cash and cash equivalents of $491 million and $687 million as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively. On May 6, 2019 (the “Refinancing Date”), certain of Adient's subsidiaries entered into a new asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Credit Facility”), which provides for $1.25 billion of commitments, subject to borrowing base capacity. See below and refer to Note 7, "Debt and Financing Arrangements," of the notes to consolidated financial statements for discussion of financing arrangements. Following the first quarter of fiscal 2019 dividend payout, Adient has suspended future dividends.

Indebtedness

The Original Credit Facilities include commitments for a $1.5 billion revolving credit facility (undrawn at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018) and a $1.5 billion Term Loan A facility (which was fully drawn during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016). The Original Credit Facilities mature in July 2021. Until the Term Loan A facility maturity date, amortization of the funded Term Loan A is required in an amount per quarter equal to 1.25% of the original principal amount prior to July 27, 2019 and 2.5% in each quarter thereafter prior to final maturity. The Term Loan A facility also requires mandatory prepayments in connection with certain non-ordinary course asset sales and insurance recovery and condemnation events, among other things, and subject in each case to certain significant exceptions.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, Adient entered into an amendment to the Original Credit Facilities (“First Amended Credit Facilities") whereby the financial maintenance covenant was amended to require Adient to maintain a total net leverage ratio equal to or less than 4.5x adjusted EBITDA, with step down provisions starting in the quarter ending December 31, 2020. The amendment also expanded the upper range of interest rate margins such that the drawn portion of the First Amended Credit Facilities will bear interest based on LIBOR plus a margin between 1.25% - 2.50% (previously 1.25% - 2.25%), based on Adient’s total net leverage ratio. No other terms were impacted by the amendment. During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, Adient entered into an amendment to the First Amended Credit Facilities (“Second Amended Credit Facilities") whereby the financial maintenance covenant contained in the First Amended Credit Facilities was amended to require Adient to maintain a first lien secured net leverage ratio equal to or less than 2.5x adjusted EBITDA as of the last day of each quarter, with step down provisions starting on September 30, 2020. The amendment also added a new tier to the pricing schedule that will be applicable when the total net leverage ratio exceeds 4.0x adjusted EBITDA and amended certain other definitions, negative covenants and other terms within the credit facility. Adient expects to be in compliance with its financial covenants for the foreseeable future.

On May 6, 2019 (the “Refinancing Date”), Adient US LLC ("Adient US"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Adient, together with certain of Adient's other subsidiaries entered into a new asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Credit Facility”), which provides for a revolving line of credit up to $1,250 million, including a North American subfacility of up to $950 million and a European subfacility of up to $300 million, subject to borrowing base capacity. The ABL Credit Facility will mature on May 6, 2024, subject to a springing maturity date 91 days earlier if certain amounts remain outstanding at that time under the New Term Loan Credit Agreement (defined below). Interest is payable on the ABL Credit Facility at a fluctuating rate of interest determined by reference to the Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin of 1.50% to 2.00%. Adient will pay a commitment fee of 0.25% to 0.375% on the unused portion of the commitments under the asset-based revolving credit facility based on average global availability. Letters of credit are limited to the lesser of (x) $150 million and (y) the aggregate unused amount of commitments under the ABL Credit Facility then in effect. Subject to certain conditions, the ABL Credit Facility may be expanded by up to $250 million in additional commitments. Loans under the ABL Credit Facility may be denominated, at the option of Adient, in U.S. dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling or Swedish Kroner. The ABL Credit Agreement is secured on a first-priority lien on all accounts receivable, inventory and bank accounts (and funds on deposit therein) and a second-priority lien on all of the tangible and intangible assets of certain Adient subsidiaries.

In addition, Adient US and Adient Global Holdings S.à r.l., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adient, entered into a new term loan credit agreement (the “New Term Loan Credit Agreement”) on the Refinancing Date providing for a 5-year $800 million senior secured term loan facility that was fully drawn on closing. The New Term Loan Credit Agreement amortizes in equal quarterly installments at a rate of 1.00% per annum of the original principal amount thereof, with the remaining balance due at final maturity on May 6, 2024. Interest on the New Term Loan Credit Agreement accrues at the Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin equal to 4.25% (with one 0.25% step down based on achievement of a specific secured net leverage level starting with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2019). The New Term Loan Credit Agreement also permits Adient to incur incremental term loans in an

Adient plc | Form 10-Q | 41

---

aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of $750 million and an unlimited amount subject to a pro forma first lien secured net leverage ratio of not greater than 1.75 to 1.00 and certain other conditions.

Finally, on the Refinancing Date, Adient US entered into an indenture relating to the issuance of $800 million aggregate principal amount of Senior First Lien Notes (the “Notes”). The Notes mature on May 15, 2026 and bear interest at a rate of 7.00% per annum. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on November 15 and May 15 of each year, commencing on November 15, 2019.

The proceeds from the transactions described above were used to repay the outstanding indebtedness and terminate commitments under Adient’s existing credit agreement, which was scheduled to mature in July 2021. In addition, certain proceeds were used (i) to pay related premiums, fees and expenses in connection with the refinancing and entering into and funding of the new credit facilities and (ii) for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

The ABL Credit Agreement, New Term Loan Credit Agreement and the Indenture contain covenants that are usual and customary for facilities and transactions of this type and that, among other things, restrict the ability of Adient and its restricted subsidiaries to: create certain liens and enter into sale and lease-back transactions; create, assume, incur or guarantee certain indebtedness; pay dividends or make other distributions on, or repurchase or redeem, Adient’s capital stock or certain other debt; make other restricted payments; and consolidate or merge with, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of Adient’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ assets, to another person. These covenants are subject to a number of other limitations and exceptions set forth in the agreements. The agreements also provide for customary events of default, including, but not limited to, failure to pay principal and interest, failure to comply with covenants, agreements or conditions, and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency involving Adient and its significant subsidiaries.

Sources of Cash Flows

Cash provided (used) by operating activities		$	40			$	(150	)
Cash provided (used) by investing activities		(190		)		(269		)
Cash provided (used) by financing activities		(49		)		45
Capital expenditures		(252		)		(266		)

Operating Cash Flows: Cash flows from operating activities increased year over year due to the reduced net loss attributable to Adient and overall favorable changes to working capital.

Investing Cash Flows: The decrease in cash used by investing activities is primarily attributable to higher proceeds from sales of assets including the Detroit, Michigan properties and remaining airplane for approximately $35 million, and overall lower levels of capital expenditures.

Financing Cash Flows: The increase in cash used by financing activities is primarily attributable prior year increases in short term debt and higher levels of dividends paid to non-controlling interest in the current year, partially offset by lower amounts of cash dividends and the current year contribution of $28 million by Adient's JV partner as part of the formation of a consolidated joint venture.

Capital expenditures: Capital expenditures decreased year over year based on timing of program spend on product launches.

The decrease in working capital of $195 million is primarily attributable to lower levels of cash, accounts receivable and other current assets along with higher incentive compensation accruals as of March 31, 2019 offset by lower levels of accounts payable.

Restructuring and Impairment Costs

Adient committed to a restructuring plan in fiscal 2019 to drive cost efficiencies and to balance our global production against demand and recorded $80 million of restructuring costs in the consolidated statement of income, that was offset by $8 million of underspend in prior years. Of the restructuring costs recorded, $61 million relates to the EMEA segment, $13 million relates to the Americas segment and $6 million relates to the Asia segment. The costs consist primarily of workforce reductions. The restructuring actions are expected to be substantially complete in fiscal 2019. The restructuring plan reserve balance of $67 million at March 31, 2019 is expected to be paid in cash.

Adient committed to a restructuring plan in fiscal 2018 to drive cost efficiencies and to balance our global production against demand and recorded $71 million of restructuring costs in the consolidated statement of income, that was offset by $20 million of underspend in the 2016 Plan and $7 million of underspend related to other plan years. Of the restructuring costs recorded, $52 million relates to the EMEA segment, $10 million relates to the Asia segment and $9 million relates to the Americas segment. The costs consist primarily of workforce reductions and plant closures. Adient currently estimates that upon completion of the restructuring actions, the fiscal 2018 restructuring plan will reduce annual operating costs by approximately $65 million, which is primarily the result of lower costs of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses due to reduced employee-related costs, of which approximately 55% will result in net savings. The restructuring actions are expected to be substantially complete in fiscal 2019. The restructuring plan reserve balance of $30 million at March 31, 2019 is expected to be paid in cash.

Adient committed to a restructuring plan in fiscal 2017 to drive cost efficiencies and to balance our global production against demand and recorded $46 million of restructuring and impairment costs in the consolidated statement of income. Of the restructuring costs recorded, $34 million relates to the EMEA segment, $7 million relates to the Americas segment and $5 million relates to the Asia segment. This is the total amount expected to be incurred for this restructuring plan. The restructuring actions relate to cost reduction initiatives and consist primarily of workforce reductions and plant closures. Adient currently estimates that upon completion of the restructuring actions, the fiscal 2017 restructuring plan will reduce annual operating costs by approximately $40 million, which is primarily the result of lower cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses due to reduced employee-related costs, of which approximately 55%-60% will result in net savings. Adient partially achieved these savings in fiscal years 2017 and 2018. The restructuring actions are expected to be substantially complete in fiscal 2019. The restructuring plan reserve balance of $3 million at March 31, 2019 is expected to be paid in cash.

Adient committed to a restructuring plan in fiscal 2016 (the "2016 Plan") to drive cost efficiencies and to balance our global production against demand and recorded $332 million of restructuring and impairment costs in the consolidated statement of income. Of the restructuring and impairment costs recorded, $298 million relates to the EMEA segment, $32 million relates to the Americas segment and $2 million relates to the Asia segment. The costs consist primarily of workforce reductions, plant closures and asset impairments. Adient currently estimates that upon completion of the restructuring actions, the fiscal 2016 restructuring plan will reduce annual operating costs by approximately $150 million, which is primarily the result of lower cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses due to reduced employee-related costs and depreciation expense, of which approximately 70%-75% will result in net savings. Adient partially achieved these savings in fiscal years 2016 through 2018, with the full benefit expected in fiscal 2019. The restructuring actions are expected to be substantially complete in fiscal 2021. The restructuring plan reserve balance of $36 million at March 31, 2019 is expected to be paid in cash.

Since the announcement of the 2016 Plan in fiscal 2016, Adient has experienced lower employee severance and termination benefit cash payouts than previously calculated of approximately $20 million, due to changes in cost reduction actions. The planned workforce reductions disclosed for the 2016 Plan have been updated for Adient's revised actions.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

There have been no material changes to the off-balance sheet arrangements and contractual obligations disclosed in Adient's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2018.

Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices

The effects of inflation have not been significant to Adient's results of operations in recent years. Generally, Adient has been able to implement operating efficiencies to sufficiently offset cost increases, which have been moderate.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies

See "Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies" under the heading "Item 7" of Adient's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2018, for a discussion of critical accounting estimates and policies. There have been no material changes to Adient's critical accounting estimates and policies during the three and six months ended March 31, 2019, except as follows.

Impairment of Goodwill, Other Long-lived Assets and Investments in Partially Owned Affiliates

As a result of the goodwill impairment assessment in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, the Americas reporting unit, which was allocated $642 million of goodwill as of March 31, 2019 maintains an excess of fair value over its carrying value of 1%. The fair value of the Americas reporting unit was derived using discounted cash flows and a discount rate of 17.5%. To the extent discount rates increase, long-term growth rates are not achieved and/or actual cash flows in the future are lower than the forecasted cash flows used in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 impairment assessment, the goodwill allocated to Americas could be determined to be impaired which could have a material impact on Adient's results of operations. See Note 5, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," of the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the goodwill impairment assessment performed during the second quarter of fiscal 2019.
