1. Segment Results

Adient manages its business on a geographic basis and operates in the following three reportable segments for financial reporting purposes: 1) Americas, which is inclusive of North America and South America; 2) Europe, the 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 (loss) before income taxes and noncontrolling interests, excluding net financing charges, restructuring and impairment costs, restructuring related-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. 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.

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

The effect of common stock equivalents which would have been anti-dilutive was excluded, and immaterial, from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Potentially dilutive securities whose effect would have been anti-dilutive are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as a result of being in a loss position.

3. Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBIT margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Adient, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted equity income, adjusted interest expense, free cash flow, net debt, and net leverage ratio 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 Adient and its business segments and to forecast future periods. Management believes these non-GAAP measures 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 in the corresponding tables that follow the definitions below. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures related to guidance for any future period have not been provided due to the unreasonable efforts it would take to provide such reconciliations.

Table
(a)Adjusted EBIT is defined as earnings (loss) before income taxes and noncontrolling interests excluding net financing charges, restructuring, impairment and related costs, purchase accounting amortization, transaction gains/losses, other significant non-recurring items, and net mark-to-market adjustments on pension and postretirement plans. Adjusted EBIT margin is adjusted EBIT as a percentage of net sales.
(b)Adjusted EBITDA is defined as adjusted EBIT excluding depreciation and equity based compensation. Certain corporate-related costs are not allocated to the business segments in determining adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA margin is adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales.
(c)Adjusted net income attributable to Adient is defined as net income (loss) attributable to Adient excluding restructuring, impairment and related costs, purchase accounting amortization, transaction gains/losses, other significant non-recurring items, net mark-to-market adjustments on pension and postretirement plans, the tax impact of these items and other discrete tax charges/benefits.
(d)Adjusted income tax expense is defined as income tax expense adjusted for the tax effect of the adjustments to income before income taxes and other discrete tax changes/benefits. Adjusted effective tax rate is defined as adjusted income tax provision as a percentage of adjusted income before income taxes.
(e)Adjusted diluted earnings per share is defined as adjusted net income attributable to Adient divided by diluted weighted average shares.
(f)Adjusted equity income is defined as equity income excluding amortization of Adient's intangible assets related to its non-consolidated joint ventures and other unusual or non-recurring items impacting equity income.
(g)Adjusted interest expense is defined as net financing charges excluding unusual or one-time items impacting interest expense.
(h)Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures.
(i)Net debt is calculated as total debt (short-term and long-term) less cash and cash equivalents.
(j)Net leverage ratio is calculated as net debt divided by adjusted EBITDA for the last four quarters.
