As the company reported it, from the “Segment Reporting - Summary of Revenue from External Customers and Tangible Long-lived Assets by Geographic Area (Details)” note of its latest 10-K. Every figure here has been checked against the total revenue the same filing reported. Regions are the filer's own and are not mapped onto a standard list — one company's “Americas” and another's “United States” are different areas, and making them look comparable would mean making at least one of them wrong. Slices under 1% are folded into “Other”.
Revenue by segment
- Seating
- E-Systems
| Segment | FY2025 | FY2024 | FY2023 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Seating | $17.28B | $17.22B | $17.55B |
| E-Systems | $5.98B | $6.08B | $5.92B |
As the company reported it, from the “Segment Reporting - Summary of Reconciliation of Consolidated Segment Earnings to Consolidated Income Before Provision for Income Taxes (Details)” note of its latest 10-K. Every figure here has been checked against the total revenue the same filing reported. Segments are the filer's own reporting structure, which is a decision about how it runs itself rather than a standard taxonomy: two companies in the same industry routinely divide themselves along different lines, so these are worth reading down a single company rather than across two. Slices under 1% are folded into “Other”.
