EPS DILUTED $1.85 -25% Adient and Boeing showcased a portfolio of jointly developed business class seat prototypes for the planned Adient Aerospace joint venture at the Aircraft Interiors Expo in Hamburg, Germany. Adient’s revised financial outlook for the SS&M business will prevent the company from achieving its 2020 margin expansion objectives. During Q2, Adient reorganized certain elements of its management structure which resulted in a realignment of its reportable segments (Seating, Seat Structures & Mechanisms (SS&M), and Interiors) and also began to assess the performance of its segments using Adjusted-EBITDA. Unconsolidated Seating (incl. SS&M) revenue increased to $2.3B in Q2; Seating equity income of $81M, up 9% excl. FX and impact of JV consolidation.

Appendix Page 4 Footnotes 1. Segment Results During the second quarter of fiscal 2018, Adient restructured certain of its management organization resulting in a realignment of its reportable segments. The Company also began using adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance of its segments and ceased allocating certain corporate-related costs to its segments. Prior period segment information has been recast to align with this change in organizational structure, the use of a new performance metric and to reflect unallocated corporate-related costs. Pursuant to this change, Adient now operates in the following three reportable segments for financial reporting purposes: • Seating: This segment produces complete seat systems for automotive and other mobility applications, as well as certain components of complete seat systems, such as foam, trim and fabric. • Seat Structures & Mechanisms (SS&M): This segment produces seat structures and mechanisms for inclusion in complete seat systems that are produced by Adient or others. • Interiors: This segment, derived from Adient's global automotive interiors joint ventures, produces instrument panels, floor consoles, door panels, overhead consoles, cockpit systems, decorative trim and other products. 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. Financial information relating to Adient's reportable segments is as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, (in millions) 2018 2017 Net Sales Seating $ 4,132 $ 3,825 SS&M 797 756 Eliminations (333) (380) Total net sales $ 4,596 $ 4,201

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 free cash flow, Net debt and Net leverage as well as other measures presented on an adjusted basis are not recognized terms under U.S. GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to the most comparable U.S. GAAP amounts. Since all companies do not use identical calculations, our definition and presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Management uses the identified non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of the Company and its business segments and to forecast future periods. Management believes these non-GAAP measures may assist investors and other interested parties in evaluating Adient's on-going operations and provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to Adient's financial condition and results of operations. Investors should not consider these non-GAAP measures as alternatives to the related GAAP measures. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to their closest U.S. GAAP equivalent are presented below. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures related to FY 2018 guidance have not been provided due to the unreasonable efforts it would take to provide such reconciliations. • Adjusted EBIT is defined as income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests excluding net financing charges, restructuring, impairment and related costs, purchase accounting amortization, transaction gains/losses, expenses associated with becoming an independent company, other significant non-recurring items, and net mark-to-market adjustments on pension and postretirement plans. 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.
