“Aptiv delivered solid results in the first quarter with 200

growth above market, despite a slowdown in electrification in North
America and Europe and persistent labor and material cost
headwinds,” said Kevin Clark, chairman and chief executive officer.
“We secured significant new business awards totaling nearly $13
billion, including our first full system Gen 6 ADAS award and first
power electronics win for the global market. While our revised
full-year outlook reflects a more conservative growth forecast,
primarily driven by reduced customer schedules, we will continue to
benefit from both our portfolio of leading technologies and our
relentless focus on cost optimization to drive outperformance
through the back half of the year. Overall, we remain confident in
our ability to deliver value to shareholders through innovation,
profitable growth, strong cash flow generation and disciplined

First Quarter 2024 Results
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company reported
U.S. GAAP revenue of $4.9 billion, an increase of 2% from the prior
year period. Adjusted for currency exchange and commodity
movements, revenue increased by 2% in the first quarter. This
reflects growth of 7% in Asia, which includes 9% in China, and 2%
in North America, partially offset by declines of 1% in Europe and
9% in South America, our smallest region.
The Company reported first quarter 2024 U.S. GAAP net income of
$218 million and earnings of $0.79 per diluted share, compared to
$146 million and $0.54 per diluted share in the prior year period.
First quarter Adjusted Net Income, a non-GAAP financial measure
defined below, totaled $318 million, or earnings of $1.16 per
diluted share, compared to $258 million, or $0.91 per diluted
share, in the prior year period.
First quarter Adjusted Operating Income, a non-GAAP financial
measure defined below, was $544 million, compared to $437 million
in the prior year period. Adjusted Operating Income margin was
11.1%, compared to 9.1% in the prior year period, primarily
reflecting improved operating performance, including the benefits
of cost reduction initiatives, and increased volumes. Depreciation
and amortization expense totaled $230 million, an increase from
$216 million in the prior year period.
Interest expense for the first quarter totaled $65 million
compared to $67 million in the prior year period.
Tax expense in the first quarter of 2024, which includes
unfavorable impacts from the enacted OECD Pillar Two Framework, was
$76 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of approximately
21%. Tax expense in the first quarter of 2023 was $34 million,
resulting in an effective tax rate of approximately 12%.
The Company generated net cash flow from operating activities of
$244 million in the first quarter, compared to net cash flow used
in operating activities of $9 million in the prior year period. As
of March 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
$0.9 billion and total available liquidity of $3.4 billion.
Reconciliations of Adjusted Revenue Growth, Adjusted Net Income,
Adjusted Net Income Per Share, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted
EBITDA and Cash Flow Before Financing, which are non-GAAP measures,
to the most directly comparable financial measures, respectively,
calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) are provided in
the attached supplemental schedules.
Share Repurchase Program
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company repurchased 7.3
million shares for $600 million, leaving approximately $1.0 billion
available for future share repurchases. All repurchased shares were
retired.
Motional Funding and Ownership Restructuring
Transactions
In April 2024, Aptiv and Hyundai Motor Group (“Hyundai”) entered
into an agreement to restructure Aptiv’s ownership interest in
Motional, AD LLC (“Motional”) and for Hyundai to provide additional
funding to Motional, eliminating any requirements for additional
future funding from Aptiv. These transactions are anticipated to
result in the reduction of Aptiv’s common equity interest from 50%
as of March 31, 2024 to approximately 15%, and are subject to
regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release contains information about Aptiv’s financial
results which are not presented in accordance with GAAP.
Specifically, Adjusted Revenue Growth, Adjusted Operating Income,
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income Per Share
and Cash Flow Before Financing are non-GAAP financial measures.
Adjusted Revenue Growth represents the year-over-year change in
reported net sales relative to the comparable period, excluding the
impact on net sales from currency exchange, commodity movements,
acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions. Adjusted
Operating Income represents net income before interest expense,
other income (expense), net, income tax (expense) benefit, equity
income (loss), net of tax, amortization, restructuring, other
acquisition and portfolio project costs (which includes costs
incurred to integrate acquired businesses and to plan and execute
product portfolio transformation actions, including business and
product acquisitions and divestitures), asset impairments and other
related charges, compensation expense related to acquisitions and
gains (losses) on business divestitures and other transactions.
Adjusted Operating Income margin is defined as Adjusted Operating
Income as a percentage of net sales. Adjusted EBITDA represents net
income before depreciation and amortization (including asset
impairments), interest expense, income tax (expense) benefit, other
income (expense), net, equity income (loss), net of tax,
restructuring and other special items.
Adjusted Net Income represents net income attributable to Aptiv
before amortization, restructuring and other special items,
including the tax impact thereon. Adjusted Net Income Per Share
represents Adjusted Net Income divided by the Adjusted Weighted
Average Number of Diluted Shares Outstanding for the period. The
Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Diluted Shares Outstanding
assumes the application of the if-converted method of share
dilution, if not already applied for GAAP purposes of calculating
the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding. Cash
Flow Before Financing represents cash provided by (used in)
operating activities plus cash provided by (used in) investing
activities, adjusted for the purchase price of business
acquisitions and other transactions, the cost of significant
technology investments and net proceeds from the divestiture of
discontinued operations and other significant businesses.
Management believes the non-GAAP financial measures used in this
press release are useful to both management and investors in their
analysis of the Company’s financial position, results of operations
and liquidity. In particular, management believes Adjusted Revenue
Growth, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net
Income, Adjusted Net Income Per Share and Cash Flow Before
Financing are useful measures in assessing the Company’s ongoing
financial performance that, when reconciled to the corresponding
GAAP measure, provide improved comparability between periods
through the exclusion of certain items that management believes are
not indicative of the Company’s core operating performance and that
may obscure underlying business results and trends. Management also
uses these non-GAAP financial measures for internal planning and
forecasting purposes.
Such non-GAAP financial measures are reconciled to the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measures in the attached
supplemental schedules at the end of this press release. Non-GAAP
measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute
for our reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP and, as
calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled
measures of other companies.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
(Unaudited)
In this press release the Company has provided information
regarding certain non-GAAP financial measures, including “Adjusted
Revenue Growth,” “Adjusted Operating Income,” “Adjusted EBITDA,”
“Adjusted Net Income,” “Adjusted Net Income Per Share” and “Cash
Flow Before Financing.” Such non-GAAP financial measures are
reconciled to their closest GAAP financial measure in the following
schedules.
Adjusted Revenue Growth:
Adjusted Revenue Growth is presented as a supplemental measure of
the Company’s financial performance which management believes is
useful to investors in assessing the Company’s ongoing financial
performance that, when reconciled to the corresponding U.S. GAAP
measure, provides improved comparability between periods through
the exclusion of certain items that management believes are not
indicative of the Company’s core operating performance and which
may obscure underlying business results and trends. Our management
utilizes Adjusted Revenue Growth in its financial decision making
process, to evaluate performance of the Company and for internal
reporting, planning and forecasting purposes. Adjusted Revenue
Growth is defined as the year-over-year change in reported net
sales relative to the comparable period, excluding the impact on
net sales from currency exchange, commodity movements,
acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions. Not all
companies use identical calculations of Adjusted Revenue Growth,
therefore this presentation may not be comparable to other
similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted Operating Income:
Adjusted Operating Income is presented as a supplemental measure of
the Company’s financial performance which management believes is

performance that, when reconciled to the corresponding U.S. GAAP
measure, provides improved comparability between periods through
the exclusion of certain items that management believes are not

may obscure underlying business results and trends. Our management
utilizes Adjusted Operating Income in its financial decision making
process, to evaluate performance of the Company and for internal
reporting, planning and forecasting purposes. Management also
utilizes Adjusted Operating Income as the key performance measure
of segment income or loss and for planning and forecasting purposes
to allocate resources to our segments, as management also believes
this measure is most reflective of the operational profitability or
loss of our operating segments. Adjusted Operating Income is
defined as net income before interest expense, other income
(expense), net, income tax (expense) benefit, equity income (loss),
net of tax, amortization, restructuring and other special items.
Not all companies use identical calculations of Adjusted Operating
Income, therefore this presentation may not be comparable to other
similarly titled measures of other companies. Operating income
margin represents Operating income as a percentage of net sales,
and Adjusted Operating Income margin represents Adjusted Operating
Income as a percentage of net sales.

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted
EBITDA is presented as a supplemental measure of the Company’s
financial performance which management believes is useful to
investors in assessing the Company’s ongoing financial performance
that, when reconciled to the corresponding U.S. GAAP measure,
provides improved comparability between periods through the
exclusion of certain items that management believes are not

utilizes Adjusted EBITDA in its financial decision making process,
to evaluate performance of the Company and for internal reporting,

net income before depreciation and amortization (including asset
impairments), interest expense, income tax (expense) benefit, other
income (expense), net, equity income (loss), net of tax,
restructuring and other special items. Not all companies use
identical calculations of Adjusted EBITDA, therefore this

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net

Income Per Share, which are non-GAAP measures, are presented as
supplemental measures of the Company’s financial performance which
management believes are useful to investors in assessing the
Company’s ongoing financial performance that, when reconciled to
the corresponding U.S. GAAP measure, provide improved comparability
between periods through the exclusion of certain items that
management believes are not indicative of the Company’s core

Adjusted Net Income Per Share in its financial decision making
process, to evaluate performance of the Company and for internal
reporting, planning and forecasting purposes. Adjusted Net Income
is defined as net income attributable to Aptiv before amortization,
restructuring and other special items, including the tax impact
thereon. Adjusted Net Income Per Share is defined as Adjusted Net
Income divided by the Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Diluted

companies use identical calculations of Adjusted Net Income and
Adjusted Net Income Per Share, therefore this presentation may not
be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other

(b)
In June 2020, the Company issued $1,150
million in aggregate liquidation preference of 5.50% Mandatory
Convertible Preferred Shares (the “MCPS”) and received proceeds of
$1,115 million, after deducting expenses and the underwriters’
discount of $35 million. Each share of MCPS automatically converted
on June 15, 2023 into 1.0754 Aptiv ordinary shares. Dividends on
the MCPS were payable on a cumulative basis at an annual rate of
5.50% on the liquidation preference of $100 per share. Prior to the
conversion of the MCPS into ordinary shares in June 2023, for
purposes of calculating Adjusted Net Income Per Share, the Company
has excluded the MCPS cash dividends and assumed the “if-converted”
method of share dilution (the incremental ordinary shares deemed
outstanding applying the “if-converted” method of calculating share
dilution are referred to as the “Weighted average MCPS Converted
Shares” in the following table). The Adjusted Weighted Average
Number of Diluted Shares Outstanding calculated below, assumes the
conversion of all 11.5 million MCPS at the later of the beginning
of the period or the time of issuance, and resulting issuance of
the underlying ordinary shares applying the “if-converted” method
on a weighted average outstanding basis for all periods subsequent
to issuance of the MCPS. We believe that using the “if-converted”
method provides additional insight to investors on the impact of
the MCPS upon their conversion.

Cash Flow Before Financing:
Cash Flow Before Financing is presented as a supplemental measure
of the Company’s liquidity which is consistent with the basis and
manner in which management presents financial information for the
purpose of making internal operating decisions, evaluating its
liquidity and determining appropriate capital allocation
strategies. Management believes this measure is useful to investors
to understand how the Company’s core operating activities generate
and use cash. Cash Flow Before Financing is defined as cash
provided by (used in) operating activities plus cash provided by
(used in) investing activities, adjusted for the purchase price of
business acquisitions and other transactions, the cost of
significant technology investments and net proceeds from the
divestiture of discontinued operations and other significant
businesses. Not all companies use identical calculations of Cash
Flow Before Financing, therefore this presentation may not be
comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The calculation of Cash Flow Before Financing does not reflect cash
used to service debt, pay dividends or repurchase shares and,
therefore, does not necessarily reflect funds available for
investment or other discretionary uses.
