Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 1 to Form10-K (this “Amendment”) amends the Annual Report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018, originally filed on November 29, 2018 (the “Original10-K”), of Adient plc (“Adient”). Adient is filing this Amendment to amend Item 15 of the Original 10-K to include the separate financial statements of Yanfeng Adient Seating Co, Ltd. (“YFAS”) as required by Rule3-09 of RegulationS-X because YFAS was deemed significant to Adient under Rule3-09 of RegulationS-X (the “Rule3-09 financial statements”). The Rule3-09 financial statements were not included in the Original10-K because, as previously disclosed, YFAS’s fiscal year ended on December 31, 2018, after the date of the filing of the Original10-K. The Rule3-09 financial statements include consolidated balance sheets of YFAS as of December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 and the related consolidated income statements, changes in owners’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018. In accordance with Rule3-09 of RegulationS-X, only the financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2016 are required to be audited. The Rule3-09 financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 are unaudited. The Rule3-09 financial statements were prepared and provided to Adient by YFAS.

This Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original10-K. The Original10-K has not been amended or updated to reflect events occurring after November 29, 2018, except as specifically set forth in this Amendment.
