Adient reported fourth-quarter fiscal 2026 results and gave fiscal 2027 adjusted EBITDA guidance of $900 million-$925 million, up slightly from fiscal 2026’s $884 million. The board also approved a $400 million share repurchase program increase, citing confidence in free cash flow generation.
Legacy contracts that continue to weigh down profitability will reset to more favorable terms or go away in fiscal 2027 and fiscal 2028.
Despite its leading position, Adient still operates in a very cyclical industry, and its stock will probably, at times, be sold off too severely for macroeconomic reasons. It's also in the midst of a multiyear turnaround effort.
