| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation Prior to the Separation on December 4, 2017 , the historical financial statements of Delphi Technologies were prepared on a stand-alone combined basis and were derived from Delphi Automotive PLC’s consolidated financial statements and accounting records as if the Powertrain Systems segment, which historically included Delphi Technologies Aftermarket, of the Former Parent had been part of Delphi Technologies for all periods presented. Accordingly, for periods prior to December 4, 2017 , our financial statements are presented on a combined basis and for the periods subsequent to December 4, 2017 are presented on a consolidated basis (all periods hereinafter are referred to as “consolidated financial statements”). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company’s historical financial statements for periods prior to December 4, 2017 reflect an allocation of expenses related to certain corporate functions of the Former Parent, including senior management, legal, human resources, finance and accounting, treasury, information technology services and support, cash management, payroll processing, pension and benefit administration and other shared services. These costs were allocated using methodologies that management believes were reasonable for the item being allocated. Allocation methodologies included direct usage when identifiable, as well as the Company’s relative share of revenues, headcount or functional spend as a percentage of the total. However, the allocations are not indicative of the actual expenses that would have been incurred had Delphi Technologies operated as a stand-alone publicly-traded company for the periods presented. Accordingly, the historical financial information presented for periods prior to December 4, 2017 may not be indicative of the results of operations or financial position that would have been achieved if Delphi Technologies had been a stand-alone publicly-traded company during the periods shown or of the Company’s performance for periods subsequent to December 4, 2017 . Related party allocations are further described in Note 3. Related Party Transactions. Prior to the Separation, transfers of cash to and from the Former Parent were reflected as a component of the Former Parent’s net investment in the consolidated financial statements. Cash and cash equivalents held by the Former Parent were not attributable to Delphi Technologies for any of the prior periods presented. Only cash amounts specifically attributable to Delphi Technologies are reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Financing transactions related to the Company, prior to the Separation, are accounted for as a component of the Former Parent’s net investment in the consolidated balance sheets and as a financing activity on the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows. Third-party debt obligations of the Former Parent and the corresponding interest costs related to those debt obligations, specifically those that relate to senior notes, term loans and revolving credit facilities, were not attributed to Delphi Technologies, as Delphi Technologies was not the legal obligor of such debt obligations. The only third-party debt obligations included in the consolidated financial statements are those for which the legal obligor is a legal entity within Delphi Technologies. None of the Company’s assets were pledged as collateral under the Former Parent’s debt obligations as of December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Prior to December 4, 2017 , all intercompany transactions between the Company and the Former Parent were considered to be effectively settled in the historical financial statements at the time the transactions were recorded. As a result, the total net effect of the settlement of these intercompany transactions was reflected in the consolidated statements of cash flows as a financing activity and in the consolidated balance sheets as Former Parent’s net investment in Delphi Technologies. As of December 31, 2017 , outstanding transactions between Delphi Technologies and the Former Parent were reflected in the consolidated balance sheet outside of Former Parent’s net investment. In connection with the Separation, the Former Parent’s net investment was reclassified within shareholders’ equity and allocated between ordinary shares and additional paid-in capital based on the number of our ordinary shares outstanding at the distribution date. |
| Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation —The consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 include the accounts of Delphi Technologies’ U.S. and non-U.S. subsidiaries and operations in which the Company holds a controlling financial or management interest and variable interest entities of which Delphi has determined that it is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts within the Company’s consolidated businesses have been eliminated. For periods prior to December 4, 2017 , transactions between the Company and the Former Parent have been included in the financial statements within Former Parent net investment. Prior to December 4, 2017 , expenses related to corporate allocations from the Former Parent to the Company were considered to be effectively settled for cash in the financial statements at the time the transaction was recorded. Prior to the Separation, transactions between the Company and the Former Parent’s other subsidiaries were classified as related party, rather than intercompany, transactions within the consolidated financial statements. Delphi Technologies’ share of the earnings or losses of Delphi-TVS Diesel Systems Ltd (of which Delphi Technologies owns approximately 50% ), a non-controlled affiliate located in India over which the Company exercises significant influence, is included in the consolidated operating results of Delphi Technologies using the equity method of accounting. During the year ended December 31, 2015 , Delphi Technologies made a $20 million investment in Tula Technology, Inc. (“Tula”), an engine control software company, over which the Company does not exert significant influence. During the year ended December 31, 2017 , Delphi Technologies made an additional $1 million investment in Tula. The Company’s investment in Tula is accounted for under the cost method, and is classified within other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company monitors its investments in affiliates for indicators of other-than-temporary declines in value on an ongoing basis. If the Company determines that such a decline has occurred, an impairment loss is recorded, which is measured as the difference between carrying value and estimated fair value. Estimated fair value is generally determined using an income approach based on discounted cash flows or negotiated transaction values. |
| Use of estimates | Use of estimates —The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported therein. Generally, matters subject to estimation and judgment include amounts related to accounts receivable realization, inventory obsolescence, asset impairments, useful lives of intangible and fixed assets, deferred tax asset valuation allowances, income taxes, pension benefit plan assumptions, accruals related to litigation, warranty costs, environmental remediation costs, worker’s compensation accruals and healthcare accruals. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be based upon amounts that differ from those estimates. |
| Revenue recognition | Revenue recognition —Sales are recognized when there is evidence of a sales agreement, the delivery of goods has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and the collectability of revenue is reasonably assured. Sales are generally recorded upon shipment of product to customers and transfer of title under standard commercial terms. In addition, if Delphi Technologies enters into retroactive price adjustments with its customers, these reductions to revenue are recorded when they are determined to be probable and estimable. From time to time, Delphi Technologies enters into pricing agreements with its customers that provide for price reductions, some of which are conditional upon achieving certain criteria. In these instances, revenue is recognized based on the agreed-upon price at the time of shipment. Sales incentives and allowances are recognized as a reduction to revenue at the time of the related sale. In addition, from time to time, Delphi Technologies makes payments to customers in conjunction with ongoing and future business. These payments to customers are generally recognized as a reduction to revenue at the time of the commitment to make these payments. Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are included in net sales, while costs of shipping and handling are included in cost of sales. Delphi Technologies collects and remits taxes assessed by different governmental authorities that are both imposed on and concurrent with a revenue-producing transaction between the Company and the Company’s customers. These taxes may include, but are not limited to, sales, use, value-added, and some excise taxes. Delphi Technologies reports the collection of these taxes on a net basis (excluded from revenues). |
| Net income per share | Net income per share —Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to Delphi Technologies by the weighted–average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share reflects the weighted average dilutive impact of all potentially dilutive securities from the date of issuance and is computed using the treasury stock method by dividing net income attributable to Delphi Technologies by the diluted weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding. For periods prior to the Separation, the denominator for basic and diluted net income per share was calculated using the 88.61 million Delphi Technologies ordinary shares outstanding immediately following the Separation. The same number of shares was used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share in those periods since no Delphi Technologies equity awards were outstanding prior to the Separation. |
| Rebates | Rebates —The Company accrues for rebates pursuant to specific arrangements primarily with certain of its aftermarket customers. Rebates generally provide for price reductions based upon the achievement of specified purchase volumes and are recorded as a reduction of sales as earned by such customers. |
| Research and development | Research and development —Costs are incurred in connection with research and development programs that are expected to contribute to future earnings. Such costs are charged against income as incurred. |
| Cash and cash equivalents | Cash and cash equivalents —Cash and cash equivalents are defined as short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. |
| Restricted cash | Restricted cash —Restricted cash includes balances on deposit at financial institutions that have issued letters of credit in favor of Delphi Technologies. |
| Accounts receivable | Accounts receivable —Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company generally does not require collateral for its trade receivables. Sales of receivables are accounted for in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing (“ASC 860”). Agreements which result in true sales of the transferred receivables, as defined in ASC 860, which occur when receivables are transferred without recourse to the Company, are excluded from amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets. Cash proceeds received from such sales are included in operating cash flows. Agreements that allow the Company to maintain effective control over the transferred receivables and which do not qualify as a sale, as defined in ASC 860, are accounted for as secured borrowings and recorded in the consolidated balance sheets within accounts receivable, net and short-term debt. The expenses associated with receivables factoring are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations within interest expense. The Company exchanges certain amounts of accounts receivable, primarily in the Asia Pacific region, for bank notes with original maturities greater than three months. The collection of such bank notes are included in operating cash flows based on the substance of the underlying transactions, which are operating in nature. Bank notes held by the Company with original maturities of three months or less are classified as cash and cash equivalents within the consolidated balance sheet, and those with original maturities of greater than three months are classified as notes receivable within other current assets. The Company may hold such bank notes until maturity, exchange them with suppliers to settle liabilities, or sell them to third party financial institutions in exchange for cash. The allowance for doubtful accounts is established based upon analysis of trade receivables for known collectability issues, the aging of the trade receivables at the end of each period and, generally, all accounts receivable balances greater than 90 days past due are fully reserved. |
| Inventories | Inventories —Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in, first-out basis, or net realizable value, including direct material costs and direct and indirect manufacturing costs. Refer to Note 4. Inventories for additional information. Obsolete inventory is identified based on analysis of inventory for known obsolescence issues, and, generally, the market value of inventory on hand in excess of one year’s supply is fully-reserved. From time to time, payments may be received from suppliers. These payments from suppliers are recognized as a reduction of the cost of the material acquired during the period to which the payments relate. In some instances, supplier rebates are received in conjunction with or concurrent with the negotiation of future purchase agreements and these amounts are amortized over the prospective agreement period. |
| Property | Property —Major improvements that materially extend the useful life of property are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is determined based on a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of groups of property. Leasehold improvements under capital leases are depreciated over the period of the lease or the life of the property, whichever is shorter. |
| Pre-production costs related to long-term supply agreements | Pre-production costs related to long-term supply agreements —The Company incurs pre-production engineering, development and tooling costs related to products produced for its customers under long-term supply agreements. Engineering, testing and other costs incurred in the design and development of production parts are expensed as incurred, unless the costs are reimbursable, as specified in a customer contract. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016 , $20 million and $16 million of such contractually reimbursable costs were capitalized, respectively. These amounts are recorded within other current and other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheets, as further detailed in Note 5. Assets. Special tools represent Delphi Technologies-owned tools, dies, jigs and other items used in the manufacture of customer components that will be sold under long-term supply arrangements, the costs of which are capitalized within property, plant and equipment if the Company has title to the assets. Special tools also include capitalized unreimbursed pre-production tooling costs related to customer-owned tools for which the customer has provided Delphi Technologies a non-cancellable right to use the tool. Delphi Technologies-owned special tools balances are depreciated over the expected life of the special tool or the life of the related vehicle program, whichever is shorter. The unreimbursed costs incurred related to customer-owned special tools that are not subject to reimbursement are capitalized and depreciated over the expected life of the special tool or the life of the related vehicle program, whichever is shorter. |
| Valuation of long-lived assets/Goodwill impairment | Valuation of long-lived assets —The carrying value of long-lived assets held for use, including definite-lived intangible assets, is periodically evaluated when events or circumstances warrant such a review. The carrying value of a long-lived asset held for use is considered impaired when the anticipated separately identifiable undiscounted cash flows from the asset are less than the carrying value of the asset. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the long-lived asset. Impairment losses on long-lived assets held for sale are recognized if the carrying value of the asset is in excess of the asset’s estimated fair value, reduced for the cost to dispose of the asset. Fair value of long-lived assets is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved (an income approach), and in certain situations the Company’s review of appraisals (a market approach) Goodwill impairment —In the fourth quarter of 2017 and 2016 , the Company completed a qualitative goodwill impairment assessment, and after evaluating the results, events and circumstances of the Company, the Company concluded that sufficient evidence existed to assert qualitatively that it was more likely than not that the estimated fair value of each reporting unit remained in excess of its carrying values. Therefore, a two-step impairment assessment was not necessary. |
| Fair value measurements | Fair value measurements —The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable, and debt approximates book value. |
| Intangible assets | Intangible assets —The Company has definite-lived intangible assets related to patents and developed technology, customer relationships and trade names. The Company amortizes definite-lived intangible assets over their estimated useful lives. Costs to renew or extend the term of acquired intangible assets are recognized as expense as incurred. |
| Goodwill | Goodwill —Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in business combinations. The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually in the fourth quarter, or more frequently when indications of potential impairment exist. The Company monitors the existence of potential impairment indicators throughout the fiscal year. The Company tests for goodwill impairment at the reporting unit level. Our reporting units are the components of operating segments which constitute businesses for which discrete financial information is available and is regularly reviewed by segment management. The impairment test involves first qualitatively assessing goodwill for impairment. If the qualitative assessment is not met we then perform a quantitative assessment by first comparing the estimated fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill. Fair value reflects the price a market participant would be willing to pay in a potential sale of the reporting unit. If the estimated fair value exceeds carrying value, then we conclude that no goodwill impairment has occurred. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, a second step is required to measure possible goodwill impairment loss. The second step includes hypothetically valuing the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of the reporting unit as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. Then, the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is compared to the carrying value of that goodwill. If the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of the goodwill, we recognize an impairment loss in an amount equal to the excess, not to exceed the carrying value. |
| Warranty and product recalls | Warranty and product recalls —Expected warranty costs for products sold are recognized at the time of sale of the product based on an estimate of the amount that eventually will be required to settle such obligations. These accruals are based on factors such as past experience, production changes, industry developments and various other considerations. Costs of product recalls, which may include the cost of the product being replaced as well as the customer’s cost of the recall, including labor to remove and replace the recalled part, are accrued as part of our warranty accrual at the time an obligation becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. These estimates are adjusted from time to time based on facts and circumstances that impact the status of existing claims. |
| Income taxes | Income taxes —As described in Note 14. Income Taxes, prior to the Separation the Company’s domestic and foreign operating results were included in the income tax returns of the Former Parent, and the Company accounted for income taxes under the separate return method. Under this approach, the Company determined its deferred tax assets and liabilities and related tax expense as if it were filing separate tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect temporary differences between the amount of assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting purposes. Such amounts are adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect changes in tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in earnings in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In the event the Company determines it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized in the future, the valuation allowance adjustment to the deferred tax assets will be charged to earnings in the period in which we make such a determination. 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. |
| Foreign currency translation | Foreign currency translation —Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. subsidiaries that use a currency other than U.S. dollars as their functional currency are translated to U.S. dollars at end-of-period currency exchange rates. The consolidated statements of operations of non-U.S. subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars at average-period currency exchange rates. The effect of translation for non-U.S. subsidiaries is generally reported in other comprehensive income (“OCI”). The effect of remeasurement of assets and liabilities of non-U.S. subsidiaries that use the U.S. dollar as their functional currency is primarily included in cost of sales. Also included in cost of sales are gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of a particular entity. |
| Restructuring | Restructuring —The Company continually evaluates alternatives to align the business with the changing needs of its customers and to lower operating costs. This includes the realignment of its existing manufacturing capacity, facility closures, or similar actions, either in the normal course of business or pursuant to significant restructuring programs. These actions may result in employees receiving voluntary or involuntary employee termination benefits, which are mainly pursuant to union or other contractual agreements. Voluntary termination benefits are accrued when an employee accepts the related offer. Involuntary termination benefits are accrued upon the commitment to a termination plan and when the benefit arrangement is communicated to affected employees, or when liabilities are determined to be probable and estimable, depending on the existence of a substantive plan for severance or termination. Contract termination costs are recorded when contracts are terminated or when Delphi Technologies ceases to use the leased facility and no longer derives economic benefit from the contract. All other exit costs are expensed as incurred. |
| Environmental liabilities | Environmental liabilities —Environmental remediation liabilities are recognized when a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Such liabilities generally are not subject to insurance coverage. The cost of each environmental remediation is estimated by engineering, financial, and legal specialists based on current law and considers the estimated cost of investigation and remediation required and the likelihood that, where applicable, other responsible parties will be able to fulfill their commitments. The process of estimating environmental remediation liabilities is complex and dependent primarily on the nature and extent of historical information and physical data relating to a contaminated site, the complexity of the site, the uncertainty as to what remediation and technology will be required, and the outcome of discussions with regulatory agencies and, if applicable, other responsible parties at multi-party sites. In future periods, new laws or regulations, advances in remediation technologies and additional information about the ultimate remediation methodology to be used could significantly change estimates by Delphi Technologies. |
| Derivative financial instruments | Derivative financial instruments —Prior to the Separation, the Former Parent centrally managed its exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates and certain commodity prices by entering into a variety of forward contracts and swaps with various counterparties. Such financial exposures were managed in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Former Parent and accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging . Delphi Technologies has not entered into any derivative transactions, contracts, options, or swaps. Due to the Company’s participation in the Former Parent’s hedging program, the Company was allocated a portion of the impact from these activities. |
| Asset retirement obligations | Asset retirement obligations —Asset retirement obligations are recognized in accordance with FASB ASC 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations . Conditional retirement obligations have been identified primarily related to asbestos abatement at certain sites. To a lesser extent, conditional retirement obligations also exist at certain sites related to the removal of storage tanks and other disposal costs. |
| Workers Compensation Benefits | Extended disability benefits —Costs associated with extended disability benefits provided to inactive employees are accrued throughout the duration of their active employment. Workforce demographic data and historical experience are utilized to develop projections of time frames and related expense for postemployment benefits. Prior to the Separation, the estimated costs associated with extended disability benefits provided to inactive employees were allocated to Delphi Technologies based on its relative portion of participants. Workers’ compensation benefits —Workers’ compensation benefit accruals are actuarially determined and are subject to the existing workers’ compensation laws that vary by location. Accruals for workers’ compensation benefits represent the discounted future cash expenditures expected during the period between the incidents necessitating the employees to be idled and the time when such employees return to work, are eligible for retirement or otherwise terminate their employment. |
| Share-based compensation | Share-based compensation —The Delphi Technologies PLC Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “PLC LTIP”) allows for the grant of share-based awards for long-term compensation to the employees, directors, consultants and advisors of the Company. The Company had no share-based compensation plans prior to the Separation; however certain of our employees and non-employee directors participated in the Former Parent’s share-based compensation arrangement, the Delphi Automotive PLC Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended and restated effective April 23, 2015 (the “Former Parent Plan”). Grants of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to executives and non-employee directors were made under the Former Parent Plan in each year from 2012 to 2017. Outstanding awards at the time of the Separation were converted to awards under the PLC LTIP as further discussed in Note 19. Share-Based Compensation. Share-based compensation expense within the consolidated financial statements for periods prior to the Separation was allocated to Delphi Technologies based on the awards and terms previously granted to Delphi Technologies employees while part of the Former Parent, and includes the cost of Delphi Technologies employees who participated in the Former Parent’s Plan, as well as an allocated portion of the cost of the Former Parent’s senior management awards. The RSU awards to executives include a time-based vesting portion and a performance-based vesting portion. The performance-based vesting portion includes performance and market conditions in addition to service conditions. The grant date fair value of the RSUs is determined based on the closing price of the underlying ordinary shares on the date of the grant of the award, including an estimate for forfeitures, and a contemporaneous valuation performed by an independent valuation specialist with respect to awards with market conditions. The Company accounts for compensation expense based upon the grant date fair value of the awards applied to the best estimate of ultimate performance against the respective targets on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting period of the awards. The performance conditions require management to make assumptions regarding the likelihood of achieving certain performance goals. Changes in these performance assumptions, as well as differences in actual results from management’s estimates, could result in estimated or actual values different from previously estimated fair values. |
| Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefits (OPEB) | Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefits (OPEB) —Certain of the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries sponsor defined-benefit plans, which generally provide benefits based on negotiated amounts for each year of service. Certain Delphi Technologies employees, primarily in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”), France, Mexico and Turkey, participate in these plans (collectively, the “Direct Plans”). The Direct Plans, which relate solely to the Company, are included within the consolidated financial statements. In addition to the Direct Plans, prior to the Separation certain of the Company’s employees in Germany and the U.S. participated in defined benefit pension plans (collectively, the “Shared Plans”) sponsored by the Former Parent that included Delphi Technologies employees as well as employees of other subsidiaries of the Former Parent. Under the guidance in ASC 715, Compensation—Retirement Benefits , the Company accounted for the Shared Plans as multiemployer plans, and accordingly did not record an asset or liability to recognize the funded status of the Shared Plans in periods prior to the Separation. The related pension and other postemployment expenses of the Shared Plans were charged to Delphi Technologies based primarily on the service cost of active participants. These expenses were funded through transactions with the Former Parent that are reflected within the Former Parent net investment in the consolidated financial statements. Following the Separation, Delphi Technologies’ portion of the defined-benefit pension plans were separated from the Former Parent’s defined benefit pension plans. As a result, the funded status for each plan is reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 . |
| Recently adopted accounting pronouncements and not yet adopted | Recently adopted accounting pronouncements —Delphi Technologies adopted ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, in the first quarter of 2017 on a prospective basis. This guidance requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value, rather than at the lower of cost or market. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Delphi Technologies adopted ASU 2016-05, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships (“ASU 2016-05”) and ASU 2016-06, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Contingent Put and Call Options in Debt Instruments (“ASU 2016-06”) in the first quarter of 2017 on a prospective basis. ASU 2016-05 clarifies that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as a hedging instrument does not, in and of itself, require dedesignation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. ASU 2016-06 also clarifies the steps required to determine bifurcation of an embedded derivative. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Delphi Technologies adopted ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”) in the first quarter of 2017. This guidance contains multiple updates related to the accounting and financial statement presentation of share-based payment transactions. The provisions of ASU 2016-09 related to the timing of when excess tax benefits are recognized were adopted using a modified retrospective transition method by means of an immaterial cumulative-effect adjustment to Former Parent’s net investment as of January 1, 2017. On a prospective basis, excess tax benefits will be recognized as income tax expense in the period in which the awards vest, as opposed to being recognized in additional paid-in capital when the deduction reduces taxes payable. Such excess tax benefits will be classified as an operating activity within the consolidated statement of cash flows prospectively, as opposed to a financing activity. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 did not materially impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations, equity or cash flows. Delphi Technologies adopted ASU 2017-07, Compensation—Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost (“ASU 2017-07”) in the first quarter of 2017. ASU 2017-07 changes the presentation of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit cost in the income statement. Under the new guidance, employers present the service cost component of the net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line items as other employee compensation costs for services rendered during the period. In addition, only the service cost component is eligible for capitalization as an asset. Employers present the other components of net periodic benefit cost separately from the line items that include the service cost component and outside of operating income. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual period. The new guidance related to the presentation of the components of net periodic benefit cost within the income statement will be applied retrospectively. The new guidance limiting the capitalization of net periodic benefit cost in assets to the service cost component will be applied prospectively. As permitted, the Company elected to early adopt this guidance effective January 1, 2017, and has reclassified the components of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit cost other than service costs from cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expense to other expense within the consolidated statement of operations for all periods presented. The adoption of this guidance resulted in the reclassification of $1 million and $1 million of net periodic benefit cost components other than service cost from operating expense to other expense for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and had no impact on net income attributable to Delphi Technologies. Approximately $13 million of net periodic benefit cost components other than service cost are included within other expense for the year ended December 31, 2017. Refer to Note 12. Pension Benefits for further detail of the components of net periodic benefit costs. Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted —In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . This ASU supersedes most of the existing guidance on revenue recognition in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605, Revenue Recognition and establishes a broad principle that would require an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this principle, an entity identifies the contract with a customer, identifies the separate performance obligations in the contract, determines the transaction price, allocates the transaction price to the separate performance obligations and recognizes revenue when each separate performance obligation is satisfied. The FASB has subsequently issued additional ASUs to clarify certain elements of the new revenue recognition guidance. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and is to be applied retrospectively using one of two transition methods at the entity’s election. The full retrospective method requires companies to recast each prior reporting period presented as if the new guidance had always existed. Under the modified retrospective method, companies would recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard as an adjustment to opening retained earnings at the date of initial application. The Company has continued to monitor FASB activity related to the new standard, and has worked with various non-authoritative industry groups to assess certain interpretative issues and the associated implementation of the new revenue standard. The Company has drafted its accounting policy for the new revenue standard based on a detailed review of its business and contracts. While the Company continues to assess all potential impacts of the new standard, we do not currently expect that the adoption of the new revenue standard will have a material impact on our revenues, results of operations or financial position. As a result of the adoption of this standard, the Company expects to make additional disclosures related to the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers as required by the new standard. The Company plans to adopt the new revenue standard effective January 1, 2018. The Company currently intends to adopt the new standard using the modified retrospective method and continues to evaluate the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This guidance makes targeted improvements to existing U.S. GAAP for financial instruments, including requiring equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income as opposed to other comprehensive income; requiring entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; requiring separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset and requiring entities to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk (also referred to as “own credit”) when the organization has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option. The new guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the fiscal year adoption. Early adoption of the own credit provision is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements; however, based on the nature of financial instruments held by Delphi Technologies as of December 31, 2017, the Company does not currently expect that the adoption of ASU 2016-01 will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company will continue to evaluate any changes in its investments or market conditions, and the related potential impacts of the adoption of ASU 2016-01. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) . Under this guidance, lessees will be required to recognize on the balance sheet a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases, with the exception of short-term leases. The lease liability represents the lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, and will be measured as the present value of the lease payments. The right-of-use asset represents the lessee’s right to use a specified asset for the lease term, and will be measured at the lease liability amount, adjusted for lease prepayment, lease incentives received and the lessee’s initial direct costs. The standard also requires a lessee to recognize a single lease cost allocated over the lease term, generally on a straight-line basis. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. ASU 2016-02 is required to be applied using the modified retrospective approach for all leases existing as of the effective date and provides for certain practical expedients. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and anticipates the new guidance will significantly impact its consolidated financial statements as the Company has a significant number of operating leases. As further described in Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies, as of December 31, 2017 , the Company had minimum lease commitments under non-cancellable operating leases totaling $85 million . In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . This guidance requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This guidance also requires enhanced disclosures regarding significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements. In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments . This guidance clarifies the presentation requirements of eight specific issues within the statement of cash flows. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements, as the Company’s treatment of the relevant affected items within its consolidated statement of cash flows is consistent with the requirements of this guidance. In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Accounting for Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Asset Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory . This guidance requires that the tax effects of all intra-entity sales of assets other than inventory be recognized in the period in which the transaction occurs. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption as of the beginning of an annual reporting period is permitted. The guidance is to be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash . This guidance requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. As a result, restricted cash will be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, and the new guidance is to be applied retrospectively. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, other than the classification of restricted cash within the beginning-of-period and end-of-period totals on the consolidated cash flows, as opposed to being excluded from these totals. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment . This guidance simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test, which measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount. Under the new guidance, if a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an entity will record an impairment charge based on that difference. The impairment charge will be limited to the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The standard will be applied prospectively and is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed in periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its financial statements, but does not anticipate a material impact. As this standard is prospective in nature, the impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements of not performing a step two in order to measure the amount of any potential goodwill impairment will depend on various factors associated with the Company’s assessment of goodwill for impairment in those future periods. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging—Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (“ASU 2017-12”) in the fourth quarter of 2017. This guidance expands and refines the application of hedge accounting for both non-financial and financial risk components and aligns the recognition and presentation of the effects of the hedging instrument and the hedged item in the financial statements. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the Company has not entered into any derivative transactions. The Company will continue to evaluate the need for derivative instruments and the related potential impacts that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements. |
