**Aptiv PLC Reports Fiscal Year 2025 Performance, Announces Strategic Spin-Off**

Aptiv PLC (NYSE: APTV), a global technology company focused on the automotive and industrial sectors, released its financial results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. The company reported net sales of $20.4 billion, a 3% increase compared to $19.7 billion in 2024. This growth was primarily driven by a 3% increase in overall volumes, reflecting increased global automotive production of 4% (1% on an Aptiv weighted market basis). Operating income for the year was $1.2 billion, compared to $1.8 billion in the previous year, while net income attributable to Aptiv was $165 million, a significant decrease from $1.8 billion in 2024. The company's diluted net income per share was $0.75, compared to $6.96 in the prior year.

The company's financial performance was influenced by several factors, including a $648 million goodwill impairment charge related to its Wind River reporting unit within the Advanced Safety and User Experience segment, due to market and industry delays in the broader adoption of software-defined vehicles. Additionally, the company incurred $178 million in costs related to the planned spin-off of its Electrical Distribution Systems business. Despite these challenges, Aptiv generated $2.2 billion in cash flow from operations and repurchased 22.8 million shares for $1.5 billion. The company's operating income margin was 5.8%, while its adjusted operating income margin was 12.1%.

Aptiv announced its intention to spin off its Electrical Distribution Systems business into a new, independent publicly traded company named Versigent, expected to be completed by April 1, 2026. This strategic move aims to create two independent, more focused entities. In preparation for the spin-off, Aptiv realigned its business into three reportable operating segments: Advanced Safety and User Experience, Engineered Components Group, and Electrical Distribution Systems. The company also incurred $178 million in costs related to the spin-off, primarily consisting of third-party professional fees.

Key operational developments included new business awards of approximately $27 billion, with over 75% of new business awards in China coming from local OEM customers. The company also extended the maturity of its existing Credit Agreement to March 2030 and opportunistically repurchased $300 million aggregate principal amount of certain senior notes and repaid the outstanding principal balance of $250 million on the Term Loan A. As of December 31, 2025, Aptiv employed approximately 140,000 people across 50 countries, with a significant presence in North America (50%), Europe, Middle East, and Africa (30%), and Asia Pacific (15%). The company is focused on achieving carbon neutrality in its global operations by 2030 and net carbon neutrality by 2040.
