Adient is a global leader in the automotive seating supplier industry. Adient has a leading market position in the Americas, Europe and China, and has longstanding relationships with the largest global original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, in the automotive space. Adient's proprietary technologies extend into virtually every area of automotive seating solutions, including complete seating systems, frames, mechanisms, foam, head restraints, armrests, trim covers and fabrics. Adient is an independent seat supplier with global scale and the capability to design, develop, engineer, manufacture, and deliver complete seat systems and components in every major automotive producing region in the world. Adient also participates in the automotive interiors market primarily through its global automotive interiors joint venture in China, Yanfeng Global Automotive Interior Systems Co., Ltd., or YFAI.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Adient have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise disclosed) that management believes are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of Adient for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full-year results.

Principles of Consolidations

Adient consolidates its wholly-owned subsidiaries and those entities in which it has a controlling interest. Investments in partially-owned affiliates are accounted for by the equity method when Adient's interest exceeds 20% and does not have a controlling interest.

Consolidated VIEs

Based upon the criteria set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 810, "Consolidation," Adient has determined that it was the primary beneficiary in two variable interest entities (VIEs) for the reporting periods ended June 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively, as Adient absorbs significant economics of the entities and has the power to direct the activities that are considered most significant to the entities.

The two VIEs manufacture seating products in North America for the automotive industry. Adient funds the entities' short-term liquidity needs through revolving credit facilities and has the power to direct the activities that are considered most significant to the entities through its key customer supply relationships.

The carrying amounts and classification of assets (none of which are restricted) and liabilities included in Adient's consolidated statements of financial position for the consolidated VIEs are as follows:

Except for the three months ended June 30, 2018, potentially dilutive securities whose effect would have been antidilutive are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as a result of being in a loss position.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Standards Adopted During Fiscal 2019

ASU 2014-09, Revenue - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. On October 1, 2018, Adient adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), and all the related amendments using the modified retrospective method as applied to all customer contracts that were not completed as of October 1, 2018. As a result, financial information for reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2018 are presented in accordance with ASC 606. Comparative financial information for reporting periods beginning prior to October 1, 2018 has not been adjusted and continues to be reported in accordance with Adient's revenue recognition policies prior to the adoption of ASC 606. Adient did not record a cumulative adjustment related to the adoption of ASC 606, and the effects of adoption were not significant. Refer to Note 2, "Revenue Recognition," of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for information related to Adient's adoption of ASU 2014-09.

ASU 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. On October 1, 2018, Adient adopted the amendments to ASU 2017-07 that improve the presentation of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs and retrospectively adopted the presentation of service cost separate from the other components of net periodic costs. The interest cost, expected return on assets, amortization of prior service costs, net remeasurement, and other costs have been reclassified from cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses to other pension expense (income). Adient elected to apply the practical expedient which allows reclassification of amounts previously disclosed in the retirement benefits note as the basis for applying retrospective presentation for comparative periods as it is impracticable to determine the disaggregation of the cost components for amounts capitalized and amortized in those periods. On a prospective basis, the other components of net periodic benefit costs will not be included in amounts capitalized in inventory or property, plant, and equipment.

The effect of the retrospective presentation change related to the net periodic cost of Adient's defined benefit pension and other postretirement employee benefits ("OPEB") plans on the consolidated statements of income (loss) for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2018 resulted in $1 million and $4 million increases to cost of sales, $1 million and $4 million decreases to gross profit, $9 million and $14 million increases to selling, general and administrative expenses, $10 million and $18 million decreases to earnings (loss) before interest and income taxes and $10 million and $18 million increases to other pension expense (income) line items in the condensed consolidated statements of income, respectively. As a result of presenting certain pension costs as non-operating items, adjusted EBITDA decreased in EMEA by $1 million and $3 million for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

Adient adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606), and all the related amendments using the modified retrospective method as applied to all customer contracts that were not completed as of October 1, 2018. As a result, financial information for reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2018 are presented in accordance with ASC 606. Comparative financial information for reporting periods beginning prior to October 1, 2018 has not been adjusted and continues to be reported in accordance with Adient's revenue recognition policies prior to the adoption of ASC 606. Adient did not record a cumulative adjustment related to the adoption of ASC 606 as the effects of adoption were not significant. The majority of Adient's nonconsolidated partially-owned affiliates will adopt ASC 606 on October 1, 2019.

Adient generates revenue through the sale of automotive seating solutions, including complete seating systems and the components of complete seating systems.

In a typical arrangement with the customer, purchase orders are issued for pre-production activities which consist of engineering, design and development, tooling and prototypes for the manufacture and delivery of component parts. Adient has concluded that these activities are not in the scope of ASC 606 and for that reason, there have been no changes to how Adient accounts for reimbursable pre-production costs.

Adient provides production and service parts to its customers under awarded multi-year programs. The duration of a program is generally consistent with the life cycle of a vehicle, however, the program can be canceled at any time without cause by the customer. Programs awarded to Adient to supply parts to its customers do not contain a firm commitment by the customer for volume or price and do not reach the level of a performance obligation until Adient receives either a purchase order and/or a materials release from the customer for a specific number of parts at a specified price, at which point an enforceable contract exists. Sales revenue is generally recognized at the point in time when parts are shipped and control has transferred to the customer, at which point an enforceable right to payment exists. Contracts may provide for annual price reductions over the production life of the awarded program, and prices are adjusted on an ongoing basis to reflect changes in product content/cost and other commercial factors. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration that Adient expects to be entitled to in exchange for such products based on purchase orders, annual price reductions and ongoing price adjustments (some of which are accounted for as variable consideration and subject to being constrained, but which are not expected to significantly change under ASC 606), net of the impact, if any, of consideration paid to the customer.

Adient has elected to continue to include shipping and handling fees billed to customers in revenue, while including costs of shipping and handling in cost of sales. Taxes collected from customers are excluded from revenue and credited directly to obligations to the appropriate government agencies. Payment terms with customers are established based on customary industry and regional practices. Adient has evaluated the terms of its arrangements and determined that they do not contain significant financing components.

Contract assets primarily relate to the right to consideration for work completed, but not billed at the reporting date on contracts with customers. The contract assets are transferred to receivables when the rights become unconditional. Contract liabilities primarily relate to contracts where advance payments or deposits have been received, but performance obligations have not yet been satisfied and revenue has not been recognized. No significant contract assets or liabilities were identified upon adoption of ASC606 or at June 30, 2019. As described above, the issuance of a purchase order and/or a materials release by the customer represents the point at which an enforceable contract with the customer exists. Therefore, Adient has elected to apply the practical expedient in ASC 606, paragraph 606-10-50-14 and does not disclose information about the remaining performance obligations that have an original expected duration of one year or less.

Acquisitions

Adient's consolidated affiliate, Adient Aerospace, LLC ("Adient Aerospace"), became operational on October 11, 2018 after securing regulatory approvals. Adient's ownership position in Adient Aerospace is 50.01%. Adient Aerospace will develop, manufacture, and sell a portfolio of seating products to airlines and aircraft leasing companies for installation on Boeing and other OEM commercial airplanes, for both production line-fit and retrofit configurations. Adient Aerospace's results are included within the Americas segment. Initial contributions of $28 million were made during the first quarter of fiscal 2019 by each JV partner.

Assets Held for Sale

During fiscal 2018, Adient committed to a plan to sell its Detroit, Michigan properties and its airplanes and actively marketed the sale of these assets. As a result, these assets were classified as assets held for sale and were required to be adjusted to the lower of fair value less cost to sell or carrying value. This resulted in an impairment charge of $49 million which was recorded within restructuring and impairment costs on the consolidated statement of income (loss) during fiscal 2018, of which $39 million related to Americas assets and $10 million related to corporate assets. The impairment was measured using third party sales pricing to determine fair values of the assets. The inputs utilized in the analyses are classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy as defined in ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement." During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018, one airplane was sold for $36 million. During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, both the Detroit, Michigan properties and remaining airplane were sold for approximately $35 million.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows:

During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, Adient began reporting three new segments: 1) Americas, which is inclusive of North America and South America; 2) Europe, Middle East, and Africa ("EMEA") and 3) Asia Pacific/China ("Asia"). Accordingly, goodwill previously reported in the former Seating segment has been reallocated to the three new segments on a relative fair value basis. Refer to Note 14, "Segment Information" for more information on Adient's reportable segments.

Adient evaluates its goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, or as facts and circumstances warrant. As a result of the change in reportable segments during the second quarter of fiscal 2019, Adient conducted goodwill impairment analyses of the newly allocated goodwill balances under the new reportable segment structure. Adient performs impairment reviews for its reporting units, which have been determined to be Adient's reportable segments, using a fair value method based on management's judgments and assumptions or third party valuations. The fair value of a reporting unit refers to the price that would be received to sell the unit as a whole in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Adient estimated the fair value of each of its reporting units using a discounted cash flow analysis approach, which utilized Level 3 unobservable inputs. These calculations contain uncertainties as they require management to make assumptions about market comparables, future cash flows, the appropriate discount rates (based on weighted average cost of capital ranging from 14.5%-17.5%) and growth rates to reflect the risk inherent in the future cash flows. The estimated future cash flows reflect management's latest assumptions of the financial projections based on current and anticipated competitive landscape and product profitability based on historical trends. A change in any of these estimates and assumptions could produce a different fair value, which could have a material impact on Adient's results of operations. As a result of the analyses, Adient determined that no goodwill was impaired.

Adient's other intangible assets, primarily from business acquisitions valued based on independent appraisals, consisted of:
