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, 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, 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.

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

Income available to shareholders
Net income (loss) attributable to Adient	$	(30)	$	(71)

3. Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income attributable to Adient, Adjusted effective tax rate, Adjusted earnings per share, Adjusted equity income, Adjusted interest expense, Free cash flow and Net debt as well as other measures presented on an adjusted basis are not recognized terms under U.S. GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to the most comparable U.S. GAAP amounts. Since all companies do not use identical calculations, our definition and presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Management uses the identified non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of the Company and its business segments and to forecast future periods. Management believes these non-GAAP measures assist investors and other interested parties in evaluating Adient's on-going operations and provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to Adient's financial condition and results of operations. Investors should not consider these non-GAAP measures as alternatives to the related GAAP measures. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to their closest U.S. GAAP equivalent are presented below. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures related to guidance for any future period have not been provided due to the unreasonable efforts it would take to provide such reconciliations.


•			Adjusted EBIT is defined as income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests excluding net financing charges, restructuring, impairment and related costs, purchase accounting amortization, transaction gains/losses, 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.

•			Adjusted EBITDA is defined as adjusted EBIT excluding depreciation and stock 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. Adjusted EBITDA excluding adjusted equity income, each as defined herein, is also presented.
•			Adjusted net income attributable to Adient is defined as net income attributable to Adient excluding restructuring, impairment and related costs, purchase accounting amortization, transaction gains/losses, expenses associated with becoming an independent company, 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.

•			Adjusted effective tax rate is defined as adjusted income tax provision as a percentage of adjusted income before income taxes.

•			Adjusted earnings per share is defined as Adjusted net income attributable to Adient divided by diluted weighted average shares.

•			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 one-time items impacting equity income.
•			Adjusted interest expense is defined as net financing charges excluding unusual or one-time items impacting interest expense.
•			Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures.
•			Net debt is calculated as gross debt (short-term and long-term) less cash and cash equivalents.

Adient is also making pro forma adjustments to fiscal 2021 financial information to reflect the impacts of certain transactions (collectively, “portfolio actions”) as described below. Adient believes these pro forma adjustments provide helpful comparisons between the current year and prior year results by adjusting the prior year to be on a consistent basis with the current year.


•			"Americas footprint actions" and "EMEA footprint actions" refer to miscellaneous closures / roll off of business.
•			"EMEA deconsolidation" refers to sale of a metals business in Turkey effective October 1, 2021 to a nonconsolidated JV in which Adient retains a noncontrolling interest.
•			"China strategic transaction" refers to the disposition of the YFAS JV and consolidation of CQADNT and LFADNT, all of which were effective on September 30, 2021.
•			"China footprint actions" refers to divestitures of smaller, non-core businesses (i.e., remaining fabrics business and Futuris entity).
