Lear reports Q1 adjusted EPS $3.12, consensus $2.70

Reports Q1 revenue $5.56B, consensus $5.51B. “Lear (LEA) delivered a solid start to 2025 by accelerating our operational improvement plans, leading to higher year-over-year margins in both segments, despite lower industry production in our largest markets,” said Ray Scott, Lear’s president and CEO. “Changes to global tariffs have created uncertainty for the automotive industry, making it difficult to forecast global production and impacting the cost structure of the global supply chain. As the largest automotive supplier incorporated in the United States, Lear is working closely with our customers, suppliers and the administration to ensure we maintain our long-term competitiveness and deliver strong financial returns. We continue to effectively manage the near-term challenges while winning new business and investing in automation and restructuring to further improve margins and extend our leadership position in operational excellence.”
