Lear’s third-quarter earnings saw adjusted EPS up 33% year over year to $3.71, ahead of the $3.37 LSEG consensus and helping the stock rise 0.9% on Oct. 30. Core operating earnings increased 6.1%, and the firm repurchased $175 million of stock to meet its full-year spending goal of $350 million.
Lear's above-industry growth rates are supported by a growing global premium-vehicle segment and increasing penetration of automotive electrical and electronic content.
The auto supplier industry is highly competitive, and customers expect annual, contractual price reductions.
