PART I -FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 1 -CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

INTRODUCTION TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     We have prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements of Lear Corporation and subsidiaries, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. We believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading when read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the period ended December 31, 2002.

     The financial information presented reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in our opinion, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and cash flows and statements of financial position for the interim periods presented. These results are not necessarily indicative of a full year’s results of operations.

LEAR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) Basis of Presentation

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lear Corporation (“Lear” or the “Parent”), a Delaware corporation, and the wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries controlled by Lear (collectively, the “Company”). Investments in affiliates, other than wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries controlled by Lear, in which Lear owns a 20% or greater interest are accounted for under the equity method.

     The Company and its affiliates are involved in the design and manufacture of interior systems and components for automobiles and light trucks. The Company’s main customers are automotive original equipment manufacturers. The Company operates facilities worldwide.

(2) Stock-Based Compensation

     The Company has adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” for the year ending December 31, 2003, under which compensation cost for grants of stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted units, performance shares and performance units (collectively, “Incentive Units”) and stock options is determined on the basis of the fair value of the Incentive Units and options at the grant date. SFAS No. 123 will be applied prospectively to all employee awards granted after January 1, 2003, as permitted under the provisions of SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure.” There were no employee awards granted in the first six months of 2003. The effect on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share, as if the fair value based method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards in each period, is shown below (in millions, except per share data):

(3) Restructuring

     In order to better align the Company’s operations and capacity in response to reductions in global automotive production volumes, the Company began to implement a restructuring plan in the fourth quarter of 2001. This restructuring plan was designed to consolidate certain operations and to improve overall efficiencies and the Company’s long-term competitive position.

     As of June 28, 2003, the restructuring plan was substantially complete. There are two facilities which remain to be closed and approximately 340 employees yet to be terminated. These remaining actions are expected to be completed in 2003.

     There have been no significant changes to the original restructuring plan as disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. A summary of the activity in the restructuring accrual is shown below (in millions):
