Legal and Other Contingencies

As of September 28, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had recorded reserves for pending legal disputes, including commercial disputes, product liability claims and other legal matters, of $13.5 million. Such reserves reflect amounts recognized in accordance with GAAP and typically exclude the cost of legal representation. Reserves for warranty and recall matters are recorded separately from legal reserves, as described below.

Commercial Disputes

The Company is involved from time to time in legal proceedings and claims, including, without limitation, commercial or contractual disputes with its customers, suppliers and competitors. These disputes vary in nature and are usually resolved by negotiations between the parties.

Product Liability, Warranty and Recall Matters

In the event that use of the Company's products results in, or is alleged to result in, bodily injury and/or property damage or other losses, the Company may be subject to product liability lawsuits and other claims. Such lawsuits generally seek compensatory damages, punitive damages and attorneys' fees and costs. In addition, if any of the Company's products are, or are alleged to be, defective, the Company may be required or requested by its customers to support warranty costs or to participate in a recall or other corrective action involving such products. Certain of the Company's customers have asserted claims against the Company for costs related to recalls or other corrective actions involving its products. The Company can provide no assurances that it will not experience material claims in the future or that it will not incur significant costs to defend such claims.

The Company is party to agreements with certain of its customers, whereby these customers may pursue claims against the Company for contribution of all or a portion of the amounts sought in connection with warranty and recall matters.

In certain instances, allegedly defective products may be supplied by the Company's suppliers. The Company may seek recovery from its suppliers of materials or services included within the Company's products that are associated with product liability claims or warranty and recall matters. The Company carries insurance for certain legal matters, including product liability claims, but such coverage may be limited. The Company does not maintain insurance for warranty and recall matters.

The Company records reserves for warranty and recall matters when liability is probable and related amounts are reasonably estimable.

A summary of the changes in reserves for warranty and recall matters for the nine months ended September 28, 2024, is shown below (in millions):


Balance at January 1, 2024	$	32.4
Expense, net (including changes in estimates)	5.2
Settlements	(9.3)
Foreign currency translation and other	1.8
Balance at September 28, 2024	$	30.1

Environmental Matters

The Company is subject to local, state, federal and foreign laws, regulations and ordinances which govern activities or operations that may have or have had adverse environmental effects. These regulations impose liability for clean-up costs resulting from past spills, disposals or other releases of hazardous wastes and environmental compliance. The Company's policy is to comply with all applicable environmental laws and to maintain an environmental management program based on ISO 14001 to ensure compliance with this standard. However, the Company currently is, has been and in the future may become, the subject of formal or informal enforcement actions or procedures.

As of September 28, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had recorded environmental reserves of $4.9 million. The Company does not believe that the environmental liabilities associated with its current and former properties will have a material adverse impact on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows; however, no assurances can be given in this regard.

Other Matters

The Company is involved from time to time in various other legal proceedings and claims, including, without limitation, intellectual property matters, tax claims and employment matters. Although the outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe that any of the other legal proceedings or claims in which the Company is currently involved, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse impact on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, no assurances can be given in this regard.

Although the Company records reserves for legal disputes, warranty and recall matters, and environmental and other matters in accordance with GAAP, the ultimate outcomes of these matters are inherently uncertain. Actual results may differ significantly from current estimates.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]

Restructuring

Restructuring costs include employee termination benefits, asset impairment charges and contract termination costs, as well as other incremental net costs resulting from the restructuring actions. Employee termination benefits are recorded based on existing union and employee contracts, statutory requirements, completed negotiations and Company policy. Other incremental net costs principally include equipment and personnel relocation costs. In addition to restructuring costs, the Company also incurs incremental manufacturing inefficiency costs at the operating locations impacted by the restructuring actions during the related restructuring implementation period. Restructuring costs are recognized in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Generally, charges are recorded as restructuring actions are approved, communicated and/or implemented.

A summary of the changes in the Company's restructuring reserves is shown below (in millions):

Acquisition

Pre-Production Costs Related to Long-Term Supply Agreements

On April 26, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of I.G. Bauerhin ("IGB"), a privately held supplier of automotive seat heating, ventilation and active cooling, steering wheel heating, seat sensors and electronic control modules, headquartered in Grundau-Rothenbergen, Germany. IGB has more than 4,600 employees at nine manufacturing plants in seven countries with annual sales of approximately $290 million. The acquisition of IGB furthers the Company's comprehensive strategy to develop and integrate a complete portfolio of thermal comfort systems for automotive seating.

The acquisition of IGB was accounted for as a business combination, and accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 28, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The operating results and cash flows of IGB are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition in the Company's Seating segment.

The final purchase price and related allocation are shown below (in millions):


	December 31, 2023		Adjustments		September 28, 2024
Purchase price, net of acquired cash	$	174.5	$	0.8	$	175.3

Property, plant and equipment	47.5		(0.7)		46.8
Other assets purchased and liabilities assumed, net	38.1		(1.8)		36.3
Goodwill	73.5		3.3		76.8
Intangible assets	15.4		—		15.4
Purchase price allocation	$	174.5	$	0.8	$	175.3

Goodwill recognized is primarily attributable to the assembled workforce and expected synergies related to future growth.

Intangible assets consist of amounts recognized for the fair value of developed technology and customer-based assets which were both based on an independent appraisal. Developed technology assets have a weighted average useful life of approximately nine years. Customer-based assets include IGB's established relationships with its customers and the ability of these customers to generate future economic profits for the Company and have a weighted average useful life of approximately thirteen years.

The pro-forma effects of this acquisition do not materially impact the Company's reported results for any period presented.

Basis of Presentation (Policies)

Sep. 28, 2024

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lear, a Delaware corporation, and the wholly owned and less than wholly owned subsidiaries controlled by Lear. In addition, Lear consolidates all entities, including variable interest entities, in which it has a controlling financial interest. Investments in affiliates in which Lear does not have control, but does have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, are accounted for under the equity method.

Fiscal Period Reporting

The Company's annual financial results are reported on a calendar year basis, and quarterly interim results are reported using a thirteen week reporting calendar.

Restructuring

The Company incurs pre-production engineering and development ("E&D") and tooling costs related to the products produced for its customers under long-term supply agreements. The Company expenses all pre-production E&D costs for which reimbursement is not contractually guaranteed by the customer. In addition, the Company expenses all pre-production tooling costs related to customer-owned tools for which reimbursement is not contractually guaranteed by the customer or for which the Company does not have a non-cancelable right to use the tooling.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost. Costs associated with the repair and maintenance of the Company's property, plant and equipment are expensed as incurred. Costs associated with improvements which extend the life, increase the capacity or improve the efficiency or safety of the Company's property, plant and equipment are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful life of the related asset. Depreciable property is depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets, using principally the straight-line method.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company monitors its long-lived assets for impairment indicators on an ongoing basis in accordance with GAAP. If impairment indicators exist, the Company performs the required impairment analysis by comparing the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the long-lived assets to the related net book values. If the net book value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is measured and recognized. An impairment loss is measured as the difference between the net book value and the fair value of the long-lived asset. Fair value estimates of long-lived assets are based on independent appraisals or discounted cash flows, giving consideration to the highest and best use of the assets. Key assumptions used in the appraisals are based on a combination of market and cost approaches, as appropriate.

Net Income Per Share Attributable to Lear

Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment on at least an annual basis. Impairment testing is required more often than annually if an event or circumstance indicates that an impairment is more likely than not to have occurred. In conducting its annual impairment testing, the Company may first perform a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying amount. If not, no further goodwill impairment testing is required. If it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying amount, or if the Company elects not to perform a qualitative assessment of a reporting unit, the Company then compares the fair value of the reporting unit to the related net book value. If the net book value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is measured and recognized. The annual goodwill impairment assessment is completed as of the first day of the Company's fourth quarter.

The Company enters into contracts with its customers to provide production parts generally at the beginning of a vehicle's life cycle. Typically, these contracts do not provide for a specified quantity of products, but once entered into, the Company is often expected to fulfill its customers' purchasing requirements for the production life of the vehicle. Many of these contracts may be terminated by the Company's customers at any time. Historically, terminations of these contracts have been infrequent. The Company receives purchase orders from its customers, which provide the commercial terms for a particular production part, including price (but not quantities). Contracts may also provide for annual price reductions over the production life of the vehicle, and prices may be adjusted on an ongoing basis to reflect changes in product content/cost and other commercial factors.

Revenue is recognized at a point in time when control of the product is transferred to the customer under standard commercial terms, as the Company does not have an enforceable right to payment prior to such transfer. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products based on the current purchase orders, annual price reductions and ongoing price adjustments. In the first nine months of 2024 and 2023, revenue recognized related to prior years represented less than 2% of consolidated net sales. The Company's customers pay for products received in accordance with payment terms that are customary within the industry. The Company's contracts with its customers do not have significant financing components.

The Company records a contract liability for advances received from its customers. As of September 28, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no significant contract liabilities recorded. Further, in the first nine months of 2024 and 2023, there were no significant contract liabilities recognized in revenue.

Amounts billed to customers related to shipping and handling costs are included in net sales in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Shipping and handling costs are accounted for as fulfillment costs and are included in cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction that are collected by the Company from a customer are excluded from revenue.

Income Taxes

The Company's current and future provision for income taxes is impacted by the initial recognition of and changes in valuation allowances in certain countries. The Company intends to maintain these allowances until it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. The Company's future provision for income taxes will include no tax benefit with respect to losses incurred and, except for certain jurisdictions, no tax expense with respect to income generated in these countries until the respective valuation allowances are eliminated. Accordingly, income taxes are impacted by changes in valuation allowances and the mix of earnings among jurisdictions. The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis. In completing this evaluation, the Company considers all available evidence in order to determine whether, based on the weight of the evidence, a valuation allowance for its deferred tax assets is necessary. Such evidence includes historical results, future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and expectations for future taxable income (exclusive of the reversal of temporary differences and carryforwards), as well as the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. If, based on the weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the Company's deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded. If operating results improve or decline on a continual basis in a particular jurisdiction, the Company's decision regarding the need for a valuation allowance could change, resulting in either the initial recognition or reversal of a valuation allowance in that jurisdiction, which could have a significant impact on income tax expense in the period recognized and subsequent periods. In determining the provision for income taxes for financial statement purposes, the Company makes certain estimates and judgments, which affect its evaluation of the carrying value of its deferred tax assets, as well as its calculation of certain tax liabilities.

Basic net income per share attributable to Lear is computed by dividing net income attributable to Lear by the average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Common shares issuable upon the satisfaction of certain conditions pursuant to a contractual agreement are considered common shares outstanding and are included in the computation of basic net income per share attributable to Lear.

Diluted net income per share attributable to Lear is computed using the treasury stock method by dividing net income attributable to Lear by the average number of common shares outstanding, including the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents using the average share price during the period.

Segment Reporting

The Company is organized under two reportable operating segments: Seating, which consists of the design, development, engineering and manufacture of complete seat systems and key seat components, and E-Systems, which consists of the design, development, engineering and manufacture of complete electrical distribution and connection systems; high-voltage power distribution products, including battery disconnect units ("BDUs"); and low-voltage power distribution products, electronic controllers and other electronic products. Included in the Company's complete seat systems and components are thermal comfort systems and configurable seating product technologies. All of these products are compatible with traditional internal combustion engine ("ICE") architectures and electrified powertrains, including the full range of hybrid, plug-in hybrid and battery electric architectures. Key seat component product offerings include seat trim covers; surface materials such as leather and fabric; seat mechanisms; seat foam; headrests; and thermal comfort systems such as seat heating, ventilation, active cooling, pneumatic lumbar and massage products. Key components of the Company's electrical distribution and connection

systems portfolio include wire harnesses, terminals and connectors, high-voltage battery connection systems and engineered components. High-voltage battery connection systems include intercell connect boards, bus bars and main battery connection systems. High-voltage power distribution products control the flow and distribution of high-voltage power throughout electrified vehicles and include BDUs which control all electrical energy flowing into and out of high-voltage batteries in electrified vehicles. Low-voltage power distribution products, electronic controllers and other electronic products facilitate signal, data and/or power management within the vehicle and include the associated software required to facilitate these functions. Key components of the Company's other electronic products portfolio include zone control modules, body domain control modules and low-voltage and high-voltage power distribution modules. The Company's software offerings include embedded control, cybersecurity software and software to control hardware devices. The Company's customers traditionally have sourced its electronic hardware together with the software that the Company embeds in it. The other category includes unallocated costs related to corporate headquarters, regional headquarters and the elimination of intercompany activities, none of which meets the requirements for being classified as an operating segment. Corporate and regional headquarters costs include various support functions, such as information technology, advanced research and development, corporate finance, legal, executive administration and human resources.

Each of the Company's operating segments reports its results from operations and makes its requests for capital expenditures directly to the chief operating decision maker. The economic performance of each operating segment is driven primarily by automotive production volumes in the geographic regions in which it operates, as well as by the success of the vehicle platforms for which it supplies products. Also, each operating segment operates in the competitive Tier 1 automotive supplier environment and is continually working with its customers to manage costs and improve quality. The Company's production processes generally make use of hourly labor, dedicated facilities, sequential manufacturing and assembly processes and commodity raw materials.

The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments based primarily on (i) revenues from external customers, (ii) pretax income before equity in net income of affiliates, interest expense, net and other expense, net ("segment earnings") and (iii) cash flows, being defined as segment earnings less capital expenditures plus depreciation and amortization.

Accounts Receivable

The Company's allowance for credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, primarily accounts receivable, reflects management's estimate of credit losses over the remaining expected life of such assets, measured primarily using historical experience, as well as current conditions and forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. Expected credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as changes to expected credit losses during the period, are recognized in earnings. The Company also considers geographic and segment specific risk factors in the development of expected credit losses.

Marketable Equity Securities

Unrealized gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the marketable equity securities are recognized in other expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). The fair value of the marketable equity securities is determined by reference to quoted market prices in active markets (Level 1 input based on the GAAP fair value hierarchy).

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company has used derivative financial instruments, including forwards, futures, options, swaps and other derivative contracts, to reduce the effects of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates and the resulting variability of the Company's operating results. The Company is not a party to leveraged derivatives. The Company's derivative financial instruments are subject to master arrangements that provide for the net settlement of contracts, by counterparty, in the event of default or termination. On the date that a derivative contract for a hedge instrument is entered into, the Company designates the derivative as either (1) a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or of an unrecognized firm commitment (a fair value hedge), (2) a hedge of the exposure of a forecasted transaction or of the variability in the cash flows of a recognized asset or liability (a cash flow hedge), (3) a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation (a net investment hedge) or (4) a contract not designated as a hedge instrument.

For a fair value hedge, the change in the fair value of the derivative is recorded in earnings and reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) on the same line as the gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk. For a cash flow hedge, the change in the fair value of the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. When the underlying hedged transaction is realized, the gain or loss included in accumulated other comprehensive loss is recorded in earnings and reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) on the same line as the gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk. For a net investment hedge, the change in the fair value of the derivative is recorded in cumulative translation adjustment, which is a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. When the related currency translation adjustment is required to be reclassified, usually upon the sale or liquidation of the investment, the gain or loss included in accumulated other comprehensive loss is recorded in earnings and reflected in other expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Changes in the fair value of contracts not designated as hedge instruments are recorded in earnings and reflected in other expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Cash flows attributable to derivatives used to manage foreign currency risks are classified on the same line as the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Upon settlement, cash flows attributable to derivatives designated as net investment hedges are classified as investing activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Cash flows attributable to forward starting interest rate swaps are classified as financing activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

The Company formally documents its hedge relationships, including the identification of the hedge instruments and the related hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transaction. Derivatives are recorded at fair value in other current and long-term assets and other current and long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company also formally assesses whether a derivative used in a hedge transaction is highly effective in offsetting changes in either the fair value or the cash flows of the hedged item. When it is determined that a hedged transaction is no longer probable to occur, the Company discontinues hedge accounting.

The Company uses forwards, swaps and other derivative contracts to reduce the effects of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on known foreign currency exposures. Gains and losses on the derivative instruments are intended to offset gains and losses on the hedged transaction in an effort to reduce exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The principal currencies hedged by the Company include the Mexican peso, various European currencies, the Chinese renminbi and the Philippine peso.

The Company determines the fair value of its derivative contracts using quoted market prices to calculate the forward values and then discounts such forward values to the present value. The discount rates used are based on quoted bank deposit or swap

Fair Value Measurements

GAAP provides that fair value is an exit price, defined as a market-based measurement that represents the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value measurements are based on one or more of the following three valuation techniques:


Market:						This approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

Income:						This approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount based on current market expectations.

Cost:						This approach is based on the amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).

Further, GAAP prioritizes the inputs and assumptions used in the valuation techniques described above into a three-tier fair value hierarchy as follows:


Level 1:						Observable inputs, such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2:						Inputs, other than quoted market prices included in Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly for the asset or liability.

Level 3:						Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity's own assumptions about the exit price of the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs may be used if there is little or no market data for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The Company discloses fair value measurements and the related valuation techniques and fair value hierarchy level for its assets and liabilities that are measured or disclosed at fair value.

Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Updates ("ASU") Issued But Not Yet Adopted:

ASU 2023-07 (issued November 2023), "Segment Reporting - Improving Reportable Segment Disclosures." The ASU requires disclosure of significant segment expenses impacting profit and loss that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker. It also requires public entities to provide in interim periods all reportable segment profit or loss and asset disclosures that are currently required annually. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The update is required to be adopted retrospectively to prior periods presented, based on the significant segment expense categories identified and disclosed in the period of adoption. The Company has evaluated the additional disclosures required to be reflected in the financial statements included in the Company's 2024 annual filing on Form 10-K and subsequent quarterly filings on Form 10-Q. The update will not affect recognition or measurement in the Company's consolidated financial statements and will not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statement disclosures.

ASU 2023-09 (issued December 2023), "Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures." The ASU requires disclosure of specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation, as well as additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. It also requires disclosure of income taxes paid, net of refunds, disaggregated by federal, state and foreign taxes, and further disaggregated by jurisdiction based on a quantitative threshold. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The update is to be adopted prospectively; however, retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the update but does not expect it to have a significant impact on its financial statements.

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. Other recently issued accounting pronouncements are not expected to have a material impact or are not relevant to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Subsequent Event

In September 2024, the Company announced a limited lump-sum payout offer to certain terminated employees who are vested plan participants of its U.S. defined benefit pension plans. This offer provides participants with the option to receive their pension benefits early and reduces the Company's future administrative costs and risks related to its U.S. defined benefit pension plans. Under this offer, between September 18, 2024 and November 1, 2024, eligible plan participants may voluntarily elect an early payout of their pension benefits in the form of a lump-sum payment equal to the present value of the participant's pension benefits. Payments under this offer will be distributed in December 2024 from existing defined benefit pension plan assets.

In connection with this offer, the Company expects to recognize a non-cash settlement charge in the fourth quarter of 2024. The amount of the charge will depend on, among other factors, the number of plan participants who accept the offer.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]
Accounting Pronouncements	Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Standards Updates ("ASU") Issued But Not Yet Adopted: ASU 2023-07 (issued November 2023), "Segment Reporting - Improving Reportable Segment Disclosures." The ASU requires disclosure of significant segment expenses impacting profit and loss that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker. It also requires public entities to provide in interim periods all reportable segment profit or loss and asset disclosures that are currently required annually. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The update is required to be adopted retrospectively to prior periods presented, based on the significant segment expense categories identified and disclosed in the period of adoption. The Company has evaluated the additional disclosures required to be reflected in the financial statements included in the Company's 2024 annual filing on Form 10-K and subsequent quarterly filings on Form 10-Q. The update will not affect recognition or measurement in the Company's consolidated financial statements and will not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statement disclosures. ASU 2023-09 (issued December 2023), "Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures." The ASU requires disclosure of specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation, as well as additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. It also requires disclosure of income taxes paid, net of refunds, disaggregated by federal, state and foreign taxes, and further disaggregated by jurisdiction based on a quantitative threshold. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The update is to be adopted prospectively; however, retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the update but does not expect it to have a significant impact on its financial statements. The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. Other recently issued accounting pronouncements are not expected to have a material impact or are not relevant to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

The entire disclosure for change in accounting principle. Includes, but is not limited to, nature, reason, and method of adopting amendment to accounting standards or other change in accounting principle.

Fair Value Measurements


Market:						This approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

Income:						This approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount based on current market expectations.

Cost:						This approach is based on the amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).

Further, GAAP prioritizes the inputs and assumptions used in the valuation techniques described above into a three-tier fair value hierarchy as follows:


Level 1:						Observable inputs, such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2:						Inputs, other than quoted market prices included in Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly for the asset or liability.

Level 3:						Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity's own assumptions about the exit price of the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs may be used if there is little or no market data for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The Company discloses fair value measurements and the related valuation techniques and fair value hierarchy level for its assets and liabilities that are measured or disclosed at fair value.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Fair value measurements and the related valuation techniques and fair value hierarchy level for the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 28, 2024 and December 31, 2023, are shown below (in millions):


	September 28, 2024
	Frequency	Asset (Liability)		Valuation Technique	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

Marketable equity securities	Recurring	73.3		Market	73.3		—		—

interest rates. If a derivative contract is in a net liability position, the Company adjusts these discount rates, if required, by an estimate of the credit spread that would be applied by market participants purchasing these contracts from the Company's counterparties. If an estimate of the credit spread is required, the Company uses significant assumptions and factors other than quoted market rates, which would result in the classification of its derivative liabilities within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. As of September 28, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no derivative contracts that were classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. In addition, there were no transfers in or out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy in the first nine months of 2024.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

The Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis, which are not included in the table above. As these non-recurring fair value measurements are generally determined using unobservable inputs, these fair value measurements are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

In the nine months ended September 28, 2024, the Company completed impairment assessments related to certain of its property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets and recorded related impairment charges of $5.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively. The fair value estimates of the related assets were based on management's estimates using a discounted cash flow method.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company completed impairment assessments related to certain of its property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets and intangible assets and recorded related impairment charges of $5.4 million, $9.6 million and $1.9 million, respectively. The fair value estimates of the related assets were based on management's estimates using a discounted cash flow method.

As of September 28, 2024, there were no additional significant assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

Lear Corporation Stockholders' Equity

Common Stock Share Repurchase Program

The Company may implement share repurchases through a variety of methods, including, but not limited to, open market purchases, accelerated stock repurchase programs and structured repurchase transactions. The extent to which the Company may repurchase its outstanding common stock and the timing of such repurchases will depend upon its financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, prevailing market conditions, alternative uses of capital and other factors.

The Company has a common stock share repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program") which permits the discretionary repurchase of its common stock. Since the inception of the Repurchase Program in the first quarter of 2011, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") has authorized $6.7 billion in share repurchases, including an increase in the Company's share repurchase authorization to $1.5 billion on February 16, 2024. As of September 28, 2024, the Company has repurchased, in

aggregate, $5.5 billion of its outstanding common stock, at an average price of $94.45 per share, excluding commissions and related fees, and has a remaining repurchase authorization of $1.2 billion which expires on December 31, 2026.

Share repurchases in the first nine months of 2024 and the remaining repurchase authorization as of September 28, 2024, are shown below (in millions, except for share and per share amounts):


Nine Months Ended September 28, 2024							As of September 28, 2024

$	299.2	$	310.8	2,569,088	$	116.48	$	1,200.8

(1) Excludes excise tax

(3) Excludes commissions

In addition to shares repurchased under the Repurchase Program described above, the Company classifies shares withheld from the settlement of the Company's restricted stock unit and performance share awards to cover tax withholding requirements as common stock held in treasury in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Quarterly Dividend

The Board declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.77 per share of common stock in the first, second and third quarters of 2024 and 2023.

Dividends declared and paid are shown below (in millions):
