Appendix Page 4 Footnotes 1. Segment Results 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 updated the 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: Three Months Ended March 31, (in millions) 2019 2018 (1) Americas $ 1,915 $ 1,941 EMEA 1,778 2,056 Asia 599 690 Eliminations (64) (91) Total net sales $ 4,228 $ 4,596 Three Months Ended March 31, (in millions) 2019 2018 (1) Adjusted EBITDA Americas $ 34 $ 98 EMEA 59 130 Asia 123 157 Corporate-related costs (2) (25) (23) Becoming Adient costs (3) — (19) Restructuring and impairment costs (4) (113) (315) Purchase accounting amortization (5) (10) (18) Restructuring related charges (6) (14) (12) Stock based compensation (7) (2) (12) Depreciation (8) (72) (99) Other items (9) (2) (28) Earnings (loss) before interest and income taxes (22) (141) Net financing charges (40) (37) Other pension income — 7 Income (loss) before income taxes $ (62) $ (171) See Footnote Addendum for detail explanations.

Appendix Page 6 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 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 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, 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. 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 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. • Free cash flow is defined as cash from operating activities less capital expenditures. • Adjusted free cash flow is defined as free cash flow adjusted for cash transferred from the former Parent post separation. • Net debt is calculated as gross debt less cash and cash equivalents. • Net leverage is calculated as net debt divided by the last twelve months of adjusted EBITDA. • Twelve months ended March 31, 2019 reconciliation between net income (loss) attributable to Adient to adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial presentation.

(13) During the three months ended March 31, 2018, Adient terminated its postretirement benefit plan. As a result, a $6 million settlement gain was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2018 reflecting the immediate recognition of prior service credits. 4. Revisions to Previously Reported Amounts On October 1, 2018, Adient adopted ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. ASU 2017-07 requires the service cost component of the net periodic costs for pension and postretirement plans to be presented in the same line item in the statement of income as other employee-related compensation costs. The non-service related costs are now required to be presented separately from the service cost component and outside of operating income/EBIT. This presentation change to the income statement has been reflected on a retrospective basis and had no effect on income (loss) before income taxes. For the three and six months ended, March 31, 2018, this change resulted in a $2 million and $3 million increase to cost of sales, respectively, a $2 million and $3 million decrease to gross profit, respectively, a $5 million and $5 million increase to selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, a $7 million and $8 million decrease to earnings (loss) before interest and income taxes, respectively, and a $7 million and $8 million increase to other pension expense (income) line items in the condensed consolidated statements

As a result of presenting certain pension costs as non-operating items, consolidated adjusted EBITDA decreased by $1 million, $2 million and $4 million the three and six months ended March 31, 2018 and twelve months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. As previously disclosed, Adient has revised its adjusted net income attributable to Adient and adjusted diluted EPS for the second quarter of fiscal 2018 as a result of adjusting income attributable to noncontrolling interests for purchase accounting amortization at one of its affiliates. For the second quarter of fiscal 2018, this revision increased income attributable to noncontrolling interests by $2 million and decreased adjusted net income attributable to Adient by the same amount, which also resulted in a decrease to adjusted diluted EPS of $0.03.
