Adient plc

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Adient plc, an Irish public limited company (the “Company”, “Adient”, “our”, “us” or “we”), is soliciting proxies for our 2025 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (“Annual General Meeting”). You are receiving, or have been given access to, this Proxy Statement because you own Adient ordinary shares that entitle you to vote at the Annual General Meeting. By use of a proxy you can vote your shares, whether or not you attend the Annual General Meeting. The Proxy Statement describes the matters we would like you to vote on and provides information on those matters so you can make an informed decision. The Board recommends a vote “FOR” each proposal requiring shareholder approval as detailed in this Proxy Statement.

Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules permit us to provide access to our proxy materials over the Internet instead of mailing printed copies of the proxy materials to each shareholder. As a result, on or about January 22, 2025, we will mail to our shareholders of record and beneficial owners as of the close of business on January 15, 2025 (the “Record Date”), either a Proxy Statement or a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials containing instructions on how to access the Proxy Statement, our 2024 Annual Report and our Irish Statutory Accounts for fiscal year 2024, via the Internet, as well as how to vote online. Shareholders receiving a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will not receive printed copies of the proxy materials unless requested by following the instructions included on the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or as provided in “Questions and Answers” below.
