Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]
Acquisition	Acquisition I.G. Bauerhin 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 March 30, 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 preliminary purchase price and related allocation are shown below (in millions): December 31, Adjustments March 30, Preliminary purchase price, net of acquired cash $ 174.5 $ — $ 174.5 Property, plant and equipment 47.5 — 47.5 Other assets purchased and liabilities assumed, net 38.1 3.5 41.6 Goodwill 73.5 (3.5) 70.0 Intangible assets 15.4 — 15.4 Preliminary purchase price allocation $ 174.5 $ — $ 174.5 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 purchase price and related allocation are preliminary and may be revised as a result of further adjustments made to the purchase price and additional information obtained regarding assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including, but not limited to, certain tax attributes and contingent liabilities. The pro-forma effects of this acquisition do not materially impact the Company's reported results for any period presented. For further information related to acquired assets measured at fair value, see Note 18, "Financial Instruments."

Property, Plant and Equipment [Abstract]
Long-Lived Assets	Long-Lived Assets 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. A summary of property, plant and equipment is shown below (in millions): March 30, December 31, Land $ 104.3 $ 105.6 Buildings and improvements 919.5 919.4 Machinery and equipment 5,372.2 5,324.4 Construction in progress 362.0 408.7 Total property, plant and equipment 6,758.0 6,758.1 Less – accumulated depreciation (3,847.6) (3,780.7) Property, plant and equipment, net $ 2,910.4 $ 2,977.4 In the first three months of 2024 and 2023, depreciation expense was $140.2 million and $131.3 million, respectively. 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. In the first three months of 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized property, plant and equipment impairment charges of $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, in conjunction with its restructuring actions (Note 3, "Restructuring"). In the first three months of 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized additional property, plant and equipment impairment charges of $4.1 million and $2.2 million, respectively. The impairment charges are included in cost of sales in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Definite-Lived Intangible Assets

Goodwill	Goodwill A summary of the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill, by operating segment, in the three months ended March 30, 2024, is shown below (in millions): Seating E-Systems Total Balance at January 1, 2024 $ 1,341.5 $ 396.4 $ 1,737.9 Acquisition (3.5) — (3.5) Foreign currency translation and other (12.6) (1.9) (14.5) Balance at March 30, 2024 $ 1,325.4 $ 394.5 $ 1,719.9 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. There was no impairment of goodwill in the first three months of 2024 and 2023. The Company will, however, continue to assess the impact of significant industry and other events on its recorded goodwill. For further information related to the acquisition, see Note 2, "Acquisition."

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition	Mar. 30, 2024
Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition 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 three months of 2024 and 2023, revenue recognized related to prior years represented approximately 1% 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 March 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no significant contract liabilities recorded. Further, in the first three 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. 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. 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	Income Taxes A summary of the provision for income taxes and the corresponding effective tax rate for the three months ended March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, is shown below (in millions, except effective tax rates): Three Months Ended March 30, April 1, Provision for income taxes $ 40.5 $ 45.6 Pretax income before equity in net income of affiliates $ 156.9 $ 199.4 Effective tax rate 25.8 % 22.9 % The Company's provision for income taxes is impacted by the level and mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions. In addition, the Company recognized discrete tax benefits (expense) on the significant items shown below (in millions): Three Months Ended March 30, April 1, Restructuring charges and various other items $ 13.3 $ 3.7 Share-based compensation (0.6) (0.5) $ 12.7 $ 3.2 Excluding the items above, the effective tax rate for the first three months of 2024 and 2023 approximated the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21%, adjusted for income taxes on foreign earnings, losses and remittances, valuation allowances, tax credits, income tax incentives and other permanent items. 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.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Legal and Other Contingencies	Legal and Other Contingencies As of March 30, 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 $12.9 million and $13.5 million, respectively. 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 three months ended March 30, 2024, is shown below (in millions): Balance at January 1, 2024 $ 32.4 Expense, net (including changes in estimates) 1.7 Settlements (3.1) Foreign currency translation and other (0.2) Balance at March 30, 2024 $ 30.8 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 March 30, 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.

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. A summary of revenues from external customers and other financial information by reportable operating segment is shown below (in millions): Three Months Ended March 30, 2024 Seating E-Systems Other Consolidated Revenues from external customers $ 4,477.6 $ 1,517.0 $ — $ 5,994.6 Segment earnings (1) 241.6 54.1 (99.2) 196.5 Depreciation and amortization 100.6 49.6 5.1 155.3 Capital expenditures 63.6 45.6 4.4 113.6 Total assets 8,867.0 4,084.7 1,920.3 14,872.0 Three Months Ended April 1, 2023 Seating E-Systems Other Consolidated Revenues from external customers $ 4,453.0 $ 1,392.5 $ — $ 5,845.5 Segment earnings (1) 285.8 42.3 (90.8) 237.3 Depreciation and amortization 95.9 46.2 5.1 147.2 Capital expenditures 63.6 43.6 4.6 111.8 Total assets 8,549.8 3,981.5 1,872.9 14,404.2 (1) See definition above A reconciliation of segment earnings to consolidated income before provision for income taxes and equity in net income of affiliates is shown below (in millions): Three Months Ended March 30, April 1, Segment earnings $ 196.5 $ 237.3 Interest expense, net 26.1 24.2 Other expense, net 13.5 13.7 Consolidated income before provision for income taxes and equity in net income of affiliates $ 156.9 $ 199.4

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Financial Instruments	Financial Instruments Debt Instruments The carrying values of the Notes vary from their fair values. The fair values of the Notes were determined by reference to the quoted market prices of these securities (Level 2 input based on the GAAP fair value hierarchy). The carrying value of the Term Loan approximates its fair value (Level 3 input based on the GAAP fair value hierarchy). The estimated fair value, as well as the carrying value, of the Company's debt instruments are shown below (in millions): March 30, December 31, Estimated aggregate fair value (1) $ 2,451.0 $ 2,464.5 Aggregate carrying value (1) (2) 2,750.0 2,750.0 (1) Excludes "other" debt (2) Excludes the impact of unamortized debt issuance costs and unamortized original issue premium (discount) Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash The Company has cash on deposit that is legally restricted as to use or withdrawal. A reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents reported on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets to cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows is shown below (in millions): March 30, April 1, Balance sheet: Cash and cash equivalents $ 930.4 $ 898.5 Restricted cash included in other current assets 0.4 0.6 Restricted cash included in other long-term assets 1.6 1.7 Statement of cash flows: Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 932.4 $ 900.8 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. As of March 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, accounts receivable are reflected net of reserves of $37.9 million and $35.6 million, respectively. Changes in expected credit losses were not significant in the first three months of 2024. Marketable Equity Securities Marketable equity securities, which the Company accounts for under the fair value option, are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as shown below (in millions): March 30, December 31, Current assets $ 5.0 $ 4.8 Other long-term assets 73.4 68.5 $ 78.4 $ 73.3 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. 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). Equity Securities Without Readily Determinable Fair Values As of March 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, investments in equity securities without readily determinable fair values of $11.2 million are included in other long-term assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Such investments are valued at cost, less cumulative impairments of $17.0 million as of March 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. In the three months ended April 1, 2023, the Company recognized a loss of $5.0 million related to the impairment of an investment in equity securities without a readily determinable fair value. 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 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 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. 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. 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. Foreign Exchange 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, the Philippine peso and the Japanese yen. Foreign currency derivative contracts not designated as hedging instruments consist principally of hedges of cash transactions, intercompany loans and certain other balance sheet exposures. Net Investment Hedges The Company uses cross-currency interest rate swaps, which are designated as net investment hedges of the foreign currency rate exposure of its investment in certain Euro-denominated subsidiaries. In the three months ended March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, contra interest expense on net investment hedges of $0.6 million is included in interest expense, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Balance Sheet Classification The notional amount, estimated aggregate fair value and related balance sheet classification of the Company's foreign currency and net investment hedge contracts are shown below (in millions, except for maturities): March 30, December 31, Fair value of foreign currency contracts designated as cash flow hedges: Other current assets $ 149.3 $ 137.2 Other long-term assets 25.3 19.9 Other current liabilities (2.6) (1.8) Other long-term liabilities (0.5) (0.5) 171.5 154.8 Notional amount $ 2,181.9 $ 2,352.3 Outstanding maturities in months, not to exceed 24 24 Fair value of derivatives designated as net investment hedges: Other long-term assets $ 1.8 $ — Other long-term liabilities — (1.1) 1.8 (1.1) Notional amount $ 150.0 $ 150.0 Outstanding maturities in months, not to exceed 24 27 Fair value of foreign currency contracts not designated as hedging instruments: Other current assets $ 2.3 $ 5.8 Other current liabilities (1.2) (1.2) 1.1 4.6 Notional amount $ 475.2 $ 569.9 Outstanding maturities in months, not to exceed 7 1 Total fair value $ 174.4 $ 158.3 Total notional amount $ 2,807.1 $ 3,072.2 Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss — Derivative Instruments and Hedging Pretax amounts related to foreign currency and net investment hedge contracts that were recognized in and reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss are shown below (in millions): Three Months Ended March 30, April 1, Gains (losses) recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss: Foreign currency contracts $ 61.5 $ 95.7 Net investment hedge contracts 2.9 (0.8) 64.4 94.9 (Gains) losses reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to: Net sales (1.4) 0.7 Cost of sales (43.4) (24.1) Interest expense, net 0.6 0.6 Other expense, net — 0.4 (44.2) (22.4) Comprehensive income $ 20.2 $ 72.5 As of March 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, pretax net gains of $176.5 million and $156.3 million, respectively, related to the Company's derivative instruments and hedging activities were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. During the next twelve-month period, net gains (losses) expected to be reclassified into earnings are shown below (in millions): Foreign currency contracts $ 146.7 Interest rate swap contracts (2.4) Total $ 144.3 Such gains and losses will be reclassified at the time that the underlying hedged transactions are realized. 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. 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 March 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, are shown below (in millions): March 30, 2024 Frequency Asset Valuation Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Foreign currency contracts, net Recurring $ 172.6 Market/ Income $ — $ 172.6 $ — Net investment hedges Recurring 1.8 Market/ Income — 1.8 — Marketable equity securities Recurring 78.4 Market 78.4 — — December 31, 2023 Frequency Asset Valuation Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Foreign currency contracts, net Recurring $ 159.4 Market/ Income $ — $ 159.4 $ — Net investment hedges Recurring (1.1) Market/ Income — (1.1) — Marketable equity securities Recurring 73.3 Market 73.3 — — 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 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 March 30, 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 three 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 three months ended March 30, 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 $4.3 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 three months ended April 1, 2023, the Company completed impairment assessments related to certain of its property, plant and equipment and intangible assets and recorded related impairment charges of $2.3 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. As of March 30, 2024, there were no additional significant assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

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	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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). Generally, charges are recorded as restructuring actions are approved, communicated and/or implemented.
Inventories
Pre-Production Costs Related to Long-Term Supply Agreements	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 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.
Goodwill	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.
Revenue Recognition	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 three months of 2024 and 2023, revenue recognized related to prior years represented approximately 1% 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 March 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no significant contract liabilities recorded. Further, in the first three 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. 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. 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.
Net Income Per Share Attributable to Lear	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. 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 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 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. 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. 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, the Philippine peso and the Japanese yen.
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 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 is currently evaluating the impact of the update but does not expect it to have a significant impact on its financial statements. 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.
