Good day, and welcome to the Aptiv Q4 2023 Earnings Call. Today's conference is being recorded. At this time, I would like to turn the conference over to Jane Wu, Vice President of Investor Relations and Corporate Development. Please go ahead, ma'am.

Speaker 1

Thank you, Jenny. Good morning, and thank you for joining Aptiv's Q4 2023 earnings conference call. The press release and related tables along with the slide presentation can be found on the Investor Relations portion of our website ataptive.com. Today's review of our financials exclude amortization, restructuring and other special items and will address the continuing operations of Aptiv. The reconciliations between GAAP and non GAAP measures for our Q4 and full year 2023 results as well as our 2024 outlook are included at the back of the slide presentation and earnings press release.

Speaker 1

During today's call, we will be providing certain forward looking information that reflects Aptiv's current view of future financial performance and may be materially different for reasons that we cite in our Form 10 ks and other SEC filings. Joining us today will be Kevin Clark, Aptiv's Chairman and CEO and Joe Massaro, CFO and Senior Vice President of Business Operations. Kevin will provide a strategic update on the business and Joe will cover the financial results in more detail before we open the call for Q and A. With that, I'd like to turn the call over to Kevin Clark.

Speaker 2

Thank you, Jan, and thanks, everyone, for joining us this morning. Let's begin on Slide 3. Aptiv ended the year on a solid note with 4th quarter results broadly in line with our expectations, demonstrating our ability to execute in a less predictable market. Touching on a few highlights, new business bookings reached $7,700,000,000 a result of continued demand for our portfolio of industry leading advanced technologies. Revenue was $4,900,000,000 with growth over market impacted by the UAW strike in customer mix, which Joe will go through in more detail later.

Speaker 2

Operating income totaled $600,000,000 reflecting a 90 basis point margin increase. The strong flow through on volumes and operating performance more than offset headwinds from FX, commodities and the UAW strike. We repurchased $300,000,000 of stock during the quarter given our share price and cash position. In summary, our team is doing an exceptional job in a fast changing environment, identifying opportunities to provide solutions to our customers, while at the same time working to mitigate headwinds from ongoing cost pressures. Turning to Slide 4, we delivered on our commitments and achieved record results in 2023 Despite having to navigate through unexpected developments, new business bookings were a record 34,000,000,000 reflecting continued strong demand for our products.

Speaker 2

As vehicles become higher contented and more software defined, Customers are increasingly seeing the value of Aptiv as an important technology partner, particularly across our smart vehicle architecture, active safety and high voltage electrification portfolio where we lead the industry in delivering high performance, flexible and cost effective solutions. Aptiv is also positioned to benefit from the transition to the software defined future across several other industries with opportunities accelerating in the telecom, aerospace and defense and industrial markets. Revenue increased 12% over $20,000,000,000 in 2023, a new record level, principally driven by our high growth active safety and high voltage product lines. Strong top line growth contributed to a record $2,100,000,000 of operating income. Operating margin increased 150 basis points to 10.6% as strong volume flows through an operating performance more than offset the headwinds from FX Commodities and UAW strike.

Speaker 2

Lastly, we generated record operating cash flow of $1,900,000,000 for the year, providing flexibility around capital deployment, allowing us to proactively repurchase shares and pay down debt. Moving to Slide 5, as I already mentioned, bookings reached $34,000,000,000 our 3rd consecutive year of record new business awards and includes 9 different customers who each awarded Adaptive over 1,000,000,000 in new business. Advanced Safety and User Experience bookings totaled a record $12,000,000,000 driven by active safety bookings of $3,400,000,000 representing a combination of next gen hardware and perception software building blocks as well as full system turnkey solutions. The strength of which is reflected in over $11,000,000,000 of cumulative bookings over the last 3 years and $5,200,000,000 of customer awards for our smart vehicle architecture solutions with 3 different OEMs, bringing cumulative awards since the launch of our SVA products to over $10,000,000,000 with 8 different OEMs. Signal Power Solutions new business bookings reached a record of over $22,000,000,000 in part due to a record $6,200,000,000 in high voltage bookings up roughly $2,000,000,000 over 2022, representing awards from both traditional and new mobility providers, bringing cumulative high voltage customer awards to roughly $14,000,000,000 since 2021.

Speaker 2

Our industry leading portfolio combined with our global reach ability to execute highly complex programs perfectly positions Aptiv to win new business and gives us a clear line of sight to $35,000,000,000 of business awards in 2024. Turning to Slide 6 to review our Advanced Safety and User Experience segments full year highlights. We achieved significant commercial success across all our key product lines, further solidifying our position as a partner of choice with our OEM customers. Building on its leading market position, Wind River continues to experience solid commercial traction across a variety of end markets. In the Q4, one of Canada's largest communication service providers selected Wind River Studio for their full O RAN deployment in North America.

Speaker 2

Amran, a leader in healthcare systems and industrial automation also chose Win River Studio for their industrial edge platform development. Within automotive, Hyundai MOBIS expanded their existing relationship with Wind River by selecting Wind River Studio to help reduce development time and costs from product design to system validation and mass production testing. Demand for Aptose full system solutions across active safety, User experience in smart vehicle architecture also remains strong with major bookings across all geographic regions, including with Japanese OEMs and emerging Chinese local players, bringing a growing pipeline of additional opportunities. To best support our customers while further optimizing our cost structure, we implemented several initiatives across our engineering and supply chain functions. To accelerate and streamline our product development process, our ASU X engineers have incorporated Winter River Studios DevSecOps tool chain into their programs.

Speaker 2

We've also centralized our engineering activities in India to a new and larger technology center in Bangalore, where Aptiv and Wind River teams can better collaborate on our software product platforms allowing us to double our engineering capacity in the country, thereby enabling the cost effective rotation of our engineering footprint. From a supply chain perspective, we're on track to fully map our global supply chain into a digital twin by year end. During 2023, we fully mapped our semi providers, increasing our visibility and improving our ability to proactively mitigate potential sourcing risks. Lastly, we've closely partnered with roughly a dozen local Chinese semiconductor suppliers for both China and non China applications that are positioning us to meet increasing demand from our Chinese customers with local sources of supply and increasing the resiliency and flexibility of our supply chain for our global OEM customers. Turning to Signal and Power Solutions full year highlights on Slide 7.

Speaker 2

From a commercial perspective, we've continued to benefit from our industry leading portfolio in global scale, which uniquely positions us to deliver optimized vehicle solutions for both emerging EV players and leading global OEMs. During 2023, we were awarded significant vehicle architecture programs by a global EV manufacturer, including optimized electrical distribution and 48 volt connection systems. In China, while we remain highly selective in our customer and platform choices, we're actively driving increased penetration of a select group of local OEMs. In 2023, bookings with China local OEMs reached $3,000,000,000 representing approximately 60% of the total SPS bookings in the region. Inter Cable Automotive had record new business awards and added 4 new global customers with their industry leading busbar technology, which enables more efficient power distribution and optimized battery pack design.

Speaker 2

We've also seen an increase in customer demand For our solutions that reduce complexity, weight and cost, including our integrated power electronics solutions, which up integrate the onboard charger, battery distribution unit and DC to DC converter. From an operational perspective, we've also implemented several initiatives manufacturing efficiency. Within our electrical distribution business, we're launching our first highly automated production line covering all aspects of system assembly. With this new technology, we expect to increase current automation levels to approximately 30% by 2026, putting us on a path to over 50% automation by 2,030, which will improve efficiency and product quality, while also reducing labor dependency and the associated exposure to inflationary pressures. At the same time, We've been building a more resilient and sustainable business by supporting the trend towards local production and minimizing cross border flows of product.

Speaker 2

We continue to pursue manufacturing footprint rotations in multiple regions and have successfully established production capabilities for inter cable automotive in North America to serve in region customers. Turning to Slide 8, at this year's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, We showcased our industry leading portfolio of products through a full range of functional, fully integrated solutions, both in our tech theater as well as on the roads with drivable demo vehicles. This is best represented by our software defined vehicle demonstrator, which showcased advanced ADAS and user experience applications embedded on Wind River's cloud native software platform and running on Aptiv's smart vehicle architecture hardware. With our first time driving a vehicle this was our first time driving a vehicle on public roads supported by SVA, Further reinforcing our leadership in next generation architectures, we demonstrated critical elements of our Gen 6 ADAS platform, including our urban point to point hands free driving application as well as in cabin monitoring. We also showcased our high voltage capabilities with a custom built 800 volt electric vehicle.

Speaker 2

This vehicle included optimized high voltage cabling and busbars, connection systems and integrated power electronics. We also introduced Apta's containerized battery management system running on our central vehicle controller, both of which were supported by Wind River's VxWorks operating system, while telemetric data was visualized through Wind River Studio. Finally, all these solutions and more were available for deep dives in our technology theater. When taken together, the solutions on display represented our full system portfolio by showcasing capabilities from sensor to cloud. Total, we had over 1,000 stakeholders visit our pavilion ranging across customers, vendors and the industry partners.

Speaker 2

And as a follow-up to CES, We scheduled a wide range of customer engagements, including the Mobile World Congress in late February and customer focused tech shows during the balance of this year. Our industry leading product portfolio underscores our position as partner of choice to develop and deliver next generation solutions. Moving to Slide 9. Before I turn the call over to Joe to walk you through the financials, I wanted to provide some context on our outlook for 2024. As our industries continue to evolve, we're experiencing growing demand for our full system capabilities, spanning across hardware and edge to cloud software solutions.

Speaker 2

This increasing level of strategic engagement has turned into 3 straight years of record new business bookings and in turn will continue to drive strong revenue growth and implied growth above market. Phil will walk through our outlook for revenue growth in more detail, but we now expect our growth over market to be in the 6 to 8 point range, reflecting the changing pace of EV adoption and customer mix. As I highlighted earlier, we have proactively taken actions to reduce our cost structure, to adapt to the changing market environment and to help offset ongoing inflationary pressures. We remain disciplined in our capital allocation approach, which will include further strengthening our competitive position with investments in advanced technology and capabilities that drive operational excellence. To that end, while our motional joint venture continues to make progress on their technology roadmap, we've decided to no longer allocate capital to motional and are pursuing alternatives to further reduce our ownership interest.

Speaker 2

Lastly, while we will continue to prioritize organic investments and strategic M and A opportunities that drive profitable growth, our stock price presents an attractive opportunity to return capital to our shareholders And we're targeting up to an additional $750,000,000 in share repurchases during 2024. The last few years have presented the industry with unprecedented macro challenges, including COVID and supply chain disruptions. During this period, the management team has remained laser focused on execution, enhancing our competitive position and increasing the resiliency of our business model, which is reflected in our 2023 financial results and our outlook for 2024. And our conviction in the long term value of our business is higher than ever we remain committed to delivering that value to our shareholders. With that, I will now turn the call over to Joe to go through the numbers in more detail.

Speaker 3

Thanks, Kevin, and good morning, everyone. Starting with a recap of the quarter on Slide 10. Revenues were $4,900,000,000 in line with our expectations, including the impact of the UAW strike in October. Adjusted growth in the quarter was 2% over the prior year, representing negative growth over market of 5% in the quarter. As Kevin noted, and I will discuss in more detail, The growth over market primarily resulted from the impact of the UAW strike and North American OEM production mix, as well as customer mix in China and slower high voltage growth.

Speaker 3

Adjusted EBITDA and operating income of $772,000,000 $600,000,000 respectively, in line with our expectations. Operating income margins expanded 90 basis points versus prior year, reflecting strong flow through on incremental volumes, the benefit of customer recoveries of direct material increases and strong operating performance, including the benefit of cost saving actions taken in the second half of twenty twenty three, offsetting the impact of the strike, which totaled approximately $50,000,000 in the quarter. And foreign exchange was a 20 basis point headwind in the quarter. EPS was $1.40 an increase of 10% driven by higher operating income, partially offset by interest and tax expense. Operating cash flow totaled $624,000,000 and capital expenditures were approximately $200,000,000 for the quarter.

Speaker 3

During the Q4, we repurchased $300,000,000 of stock, bringing full year repurchases to approximately $400,000,000 Looking at revenue in more detail on Slide 11. As noted, revenue in the 4th quarter was $4,900,000,000 reflecting sales growth of $188,000,000 a favorable $62,000,000 contribution from net price downs and commodities and foreign exchange tailwinds of approximately $29,000,000 From a regional perspective, North American revenues were down 7% or 11% below market, driven in part by the UAW strike impact, which totaled $100,000,000 in October. In addition, as we caution during the Q4, foreign manufacturers, primarily the Japanese OEMs with whom we do not have significant content, experienced very strong year over year production growth in the quarter, further impacting the relative production mix in the North American market. In Europe, adjusted growth was 6% in line with vehicle production, driven by active safety growth of 18%, partially offset by slower high voltage growth in the region. And in China, revenues were up 12% driven by SPS growth with local OEMs.

Speaker 3

China growth over market was 8 points global vehicle production, primarily impacted by lower production at multinational joint venture customers as well as slower high voltage growth of 4% in the quarter. As I will discuss in more detail shortly, we do expect growth over market to increase in 2024 from the second half twenty twenty three levels. Moving to the ASU X segment on the next slide. Revenue growth was flat in the quarter. Active safety growth was 11% despite the UAW strike, which primarily impacted the active safety product line in North America.

Speaker 3

User experience was down 16% in the quarter, driven in large part by the previously noted China customer mix shift impacting our user experience volumes with multinational joint venture OEMs in China. For the full year, adjusted revenue growth was 17% with strong active safety growth of 29% and user experience growth of 4%. Segment adjusted operating in the quarter was $141,000,000 up 83% over prior year despite the negative strike impact of $10,000,000 in the quarter. Operating income margins expanded 4.40 basis points to 10.4% as performance and cost savings offset higher labor costs. Full year operating income and margins were in line with our original expectations as margins improved by almost 40 basis points, inclusive of the full year strike impact of $15,000,000 As we have previously discussed, given the nature of the ASU X business and the timing of certain customer reimbursements and engineering credits, The quarterly profitability of the business is cyclical and weighted to the 4th quarter.

Speaker 3

We would expect this trend to continue in 2024. Turning to signal and power on Slide 13. Revenue in the 4th quarter was $3,600,000,000 an increase of 3% or 4% below vehicle production. As anticipated, overall SPS growth over market was impacted in North by the UAW strike and OEM mix, representing approximately 5 points of growth in

Speaker 2

the quarter.

Speaker 3

Lower high voltage growth, which primarily impacted the European region was lower by 2 points. For the full year, adjusted revenue growth was 11% despite the impact of the strike. High voltage growth was approximately 20% for the year and segment growth in China was 13%. Segment adjusted operating income was $459,000,000 in the quarter, up 3% from prior year despite a $40,000,000 or 90 basis point strike impact. Operating performance was strong, including the benefit of lower supply chain disruption costs, offsetting the impact of higher labor and other costs.

Speaker 3

Customer recoveries offset the impact of material inflation and commodities in the quarter and foreign exchange continue to present a headwind equal to 60 basis points on a year over year basis. Full year operating margins were up 50 basis points despite the significant headwinds related to foreign exchange and the strike. Turning now to Slide 14 and 2024 macro expectations. We are forecasting global vehicle production to be flat for the year, reflecting approximately 93,000,000 units. Regionally, we expect North America to be up approximately 1% at 16,500,000 units, Europe down 2% or approximately 18,000,000 units and China flat at approximately 30,000,000 units.

Speaker 3

While we remain cautious about the impact of macroeconomic and geopolitical factors, We do believe that supply chain constraints have improved significantly and based on what we see today should not have a significant impact on overall customer production levels. Our macro assumptions also assume copper at $4 Mexican peso at 18.25 the euro at $1.10 and the RMB at $7 Moving to Slide 15 and our 2024 full year outlook. We expect revenue in the range of $21,300,000,000 to $21,900,000,000 up 7% at the midpoint compared to 2023, reflecting 7 points of growth over market. EBITDA and operating income are expected to be approximately $3,280,000,000 $2,550,000,000 at the midpoint, reflecting strong flow through on volume growth, continued margin expansion and higher growth product lines and operating performance and cost reduction initiatives to offset increasing labor headwinds, including higher than expected labor inflation in Mexico as well as the stronger peso. Adjusted earnings per share is estimated to be between $5.55 $6.05 EPS growth of 19% is primarily driven by strong earnings and lower interest expense, partially offset by an increase in the expected tax rate of 17.5%.

Speaker 3

As I will discuss further, We are targeting share repurchases of $750,000,000 in 2024 and have reflected a full year benefit estimate of $0.05 per share at the midpoint of our guidance. As it relates to motional, as Kevin mentioned earlier, Aptiv will not participate in future funding rounds. Despite the continued progress made by the motional team on their technology roadmap, given the push out of the commercialization of the level or 5 robo taxi business models, we no longer believe capital allocation promotional is appropriate for Aptiv. In addition, we are also exploring steps to reduce a significant portion of our common equity holdings. Working within the construct of the joint venture agreement, We will look to sell or otherwise reduce our holdings during 2024, reducing the dilutive earnings per share impact of the motional losses on asset's earnings.

Speaker 3

Given that the exact timing of the reduction in shareholdings is not yet known, we have included the expected full year impact devotional losses in our current outlook. A non cash equity loss of approximately $340,000,000 or $1.20 of earnings per share. Moving to cash flow, we expect 2024 operating cash flow of $2,300,000,000 driven by higher earnings. Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately 5% of revenues. Finally, although we are not providing quarterly guidance in 2024, we did want to provide some perspective on calendarization during the year as both revenue growth and earnings are weighted towards the second half.

Speaker 3

Our full year guidance assumes adjusted revenue growth in the first half of the year of 3% to 5%. Adjusted growth in the second half of the year accelerates to 9% 10% and is weighted towards the 4th quarter. With respect to earnings, consistent with the higher level of revenue growth and the previously noted in the business, margins will expand throughout the year similar to 2023. On Slide 16, we provide a bridge of 2024 revenue and operating income guidance as compared to 2023. Starting with revenue, our growth over market combined with flat global vehicle production results in a net contribution of revenues of $1,200,000,000 The full year benefit of material cost recoveries will effectively offset changes in commodity prices and price downs.

Speaker 3

And FX is estimated at a positive $100,000,000 Turning to adjusted operating income, We expect margin expansion of 120 basis points in the midpoint of our guide, driven by continued strong flow through on incremental volumes, Net price and commodities will offset and we expect our strong operating performance in 2023 to continue into 2024 As manufacturing and material performance as well as additional cost reduction actions are expected to offset incremental labor costs and non material inflation. In summary, we remain focused on driving disciplined revenue growth while balancing investment in the business with increased levels of performance and expanding operating margins. Moving to Slide 17, We wanted to discuss our updated growth over market framework of 6% to 8%, down from our prior range of 8% to 10%. As we have discussed, our growth over market represents Apta's relative secular growth expectations above global vehicle production. During the second half of twenty twenty three, our growth over market was negatively impacted by several factors, including the UAW strike, stronger Japanese OEM production in North America as well as a change in Chinese customer mix as local Chinese OEMs grew faster than multinational customers in China.

Speaker 3

When combined with the direct UAW strike impact, the OEM and customer mix reduced our growth over market in 2023 by approximately 5 points on a full year basis. In addition, a slowdown in high voltage growth driven by lower EV production and the exiting of a relationship with a smaller North American EV only producer accounted for a 2% decrease in growth over market. As we look out into 2024, we believe the impact of the UAW strike the OEM production mix in North America effectively reverses. In addition, improved production schedules at our multinational Chinese and our continued growth with local Chinese OEMs will contribute to higher growth over market in China. However, we are forecasting high voltage growth to slow to approximately 20% in 2024 consistent with the 2023 levels, but down from pre-twenty 23 levels of approximately 30%.

Speaker 3

Our updated framework of 6% to 8% incorporates these changes as well as the continued contribution from our active safety, engineered components and commercial vehicle product lines. Slide 18 provides an update on our multi year margin expansion performance. As noted, we saw very strong margin expansion in 2023 exceeding the expectations we laid out last February. Operating income margin expanded 150 basis points over 2022, despite the strike impact of $80,000,000 and foreign exchange headwinds of over $100,000,000 Strong flow through on sales growth was partially offset by net price and commodities as a slight headwind and we saw significant reductions in supply chain disruption costs and the operating teams drove incremental material and manufacturing performance more than offsetting the impact of higher labor and operating costs. The accomplishments of last year provide a strong jumping off point for 2024 as we target 120 basis point margin expansion at the midpoint of our guide.

Speaker 3

In addition to the ongoing performance initiatives, During the second half of twenty twenty three, we also took several cost reduction actions to help bolster our overall performance and help ensure achievement of the 2024 margin expansion. These additional actions as well as our continued focus on our overall cost structure and footprint are necessary as we expect to see continued labor and operating cost pressures, particularly in our Mexico operations over the coming years. We are also forecasting the peso to remain at a relatively strong level in 2024. Before handing the call back to Kevin, I'd like to touch upon our continued strong performance as it relates to cash flow generation and capital allocation. We generated a record $1,900,000,000 in operating cash flow, allowing us to continue to maintain a discipline and accretive track record of capital deployment.

Speaker 3

In 2023, we continue to invest in the business, focusing on longer term growth and innovation. In addition, we opportunistically delevered by paying down our $300,000,000 term loan A resulting in a full year earnings per share benefit of $0.05 in 2024. In addition, we purchased $400,000,000 of stock, including $300,000,000 in the 4th quarter. Looking at 2024, we expect operating cash flow to increase to $2,300,000,000 and we will continue to maintain a well balanced approach capital allocation. In addition to both investing in organic and inorganic opportunities, We are forecasting additional share repurchases in 2024, targeting a total of $750,000,000 in the year.

Speaker 3

While we will continue to maintain our current financial policy as it relates to our balance sheet and leverage profile. As we have discussed in the past, our sustainable business model and relentless focus on operating performance enables us to convert more income to cash, Allowing Aptiv to maintain a well balanced approach to capital allocation that we believe helps drive shareholder value. And with that, I'd like to hand the call back to Kevin for his closing remarks.

Speaker 2

Thanks, Joe. I'll wrap up on Slide 20 before opening the line up for questions. As the management team reflects on 2023, we expect the pace of innovation to continue to accelerate and drive ongoing transformation across industries. Apt is perfectly positioned to benefit from this change, having identified the safe, green and connected megatrends over a decade ago. We have a purpose built we have purpose built our portfolio to provide flexible, high performance and cost effective solutions that address our customers' greatest challenges all on a global scale.

Speaker 2

At the same time, we remain committed to flawless execution and operational excellence, enabling us to unlock incremental profitability and deliver value to our shareholders. In closing, I'm proud of what the Aptiv team accomplished during 2023 and I'm excited

Operator

Thank And our first question is going to come from Joseph Spak from UBS. Please go ahead.

Speaker 4

Thanks. Good morning, everyone. I guess just to start, appreciate the commentary on the long term growth over market target. Back of the envelope, it would seem like the reduced growth would lower your longer term margin goals by maybe 20, 30 bps. Is that sort of reasonable?

Speaker 4

And can you sort of address any other factors that may impact the long term margin goals?

Speaker 3

Yes. Joe, it's Joe. I'll start and Kevin can jump in. So, yes, we obviously will see that come down a bit as high voltage slows. We try to lay in Slide 18 of the deck, we try to lay out the progress we've made in 2023 2024, which we feel is quite strong.

Speaker 3

I think if we had to look out and this goes back to that Investor Day discussion around 2025 margins. I think if we looked at that today, We had about a 14% total margin for asset in 2025. We'd say we've got about, call it 100 basis points to 150 basis point headwind to that At the moment, some of it coming off obviously from the lower growth over market. Some of it's going to be the higher peso. We're seeing just the peso changes of last year, the strengthening has effectively gotten into the cost base at this point.

Speaker 3

And as I mentioned in my prepared comments, we're also seeing particularly for 2025, some additional operating and labor costs in Mexico. So at this point, I would say those margin targets are probably pushed out a year round numbers. And we'll obviously be Working on that over the course of this year and sort of updating as appropriate. I don't know Kevin if I

Speaker 2

No, listen, I think you captured I think to The point Joe made, we'd say the bigger headwind quite frankly is labor inflation, especially in places like Mexico relative to growth rate From high voltage electrification. Just to remind everybody, although it looks like adoption has slowed, growth rate is still on a relative basis, extremely high. So just want to remind everybody that we are believers on the ongoing trend of the penetration of electrification in the automotive space.

Speaker 4

Okay. Thank you for that. And then just On the buyback, I think that's a positive step for capital allocation. But You still have $1,600,000,000 of cash on hand. Your free cash flow guidance is like $1,200,000,000 I you said minimum cash is $600,000,000 to $700,000,000 So the $750,000,000 I think is probably within the framework of what you expect to how you expect to sort of use cash generation.

Speaker 4

But how should we think about The total cash on hand, especially,

Speaker 5

I understand you want to leave

Speaker 4

a little bit of firepower for maybe some acquisitions, but still seems like there's a good amount of cash on the balance sheet that could be put to work.

Speaker 2

Yes, maybe I'll start. Listen, Joe, your observation is a good one. Listen, our primary focus is on continuing to invest in the business For profitable growth, we'll underscore that. We feel like we have a very, very strong competitive position. We feel like there are opportunities to further widen the competitive mode.

Speaker 2

So those are opportunities that we will continue to evaluate. But to the extent those opportunities don't present themselves, we'll certainly look at returning incremental cash to shareholders. So we'll strike that balance, but It's important that we have some level of flexibility to react when opportunities present themselves.

Speaker 4

Okay. Thank you.

Operator

And our next question is going to come from Rod Blach with Wolfe Research. Please go ahead. I'm so sorry. This is going to be Chris McNally with Evercore.

Speaker 6

Thanks so much team. Two questions. The first, Joe, appreciate The help on the cadence first half, second half. So if it sounds something like the outgrowth 4% in first half, maybe 10% In the second half, could you help us walk through the Chinese mix? I think everyone understands North America and the strike.

Speaker 6

But when we say domestic Chinese, it sort of means multiple different things. And I guess what people are trying to figure out Is why that may improve over the course of the year? Is it specific active things or is it just the production schedule the way it plays out for your customer base?

Speaker 3

Yes, it's obviously driven off of production schedules from the customer base, which would include launches. So we do see higher launch activity and schedules picking up from the multinationals in towards the second half of the year. In addition to that, and I think we're from what we're seeing, I think it's generally consistent at this point with what you see From IHS is some of these local OEM growth, the 30 plus percent you saw in the back half the year in 2023, they start to lap some of that. So from a growth again, the sort of relative growth rate that drives the growth over market calculation, some of that starts to come back in a little bit, just given the significant growth in the back half of twenty twenty three. And obviously, we have We tend to concentrate and call it the top 10 or 12 Chinese OEMs from a local perspective.

Speaker 3

So we have their schedules, but also Chris looking To some extent of what the forecasting services are saying about that production level as well.

Speaker 2

Yes. If I may, I'll add just Chris, a couple of items. Just part of it is just the evolution of our business, right? So if you're speaking If your question is specific to China, right? So when you look at, as an example, 20 2023 bookings in China, roughly 60% of those were with local OEMs.

Speaker 2

Our focus is on players like Geely, like BYD, like Chang'an, like some of the leaders, we're careful as with respect to overall exposure and we want to make sure that we're players grow in China and then highly focused on those that we feel are well positioned to export and are interested in exporting just given the nature of what we're able to bring. When you look at 2023 revenues, we were roughly 40% domestic OEMs, just under 60% from a multinational standpoint. That moves to 50% in 2024 and continues to kind of increase up north of 60%, 70% over the coming years. So That mix, at least from a current list of winners standpoint improves.

Speaker 6

Yes, that's perfect. That was my follow-up. I mean, do you think sort of exiting 2025 into No, you don't have to get very specific to the timeline that you start to become pretty agnostic, meaning that The targeted plan that you laid out, you should be pretty well adjusted, assuming the mix kind of normalizes as we get to 2025, 2026, but that the metric Turnover happens around the 25% to 26%, so we won't be talking about this mix issue as much.

Speaker 2

Yes. I think we're in a unique situation in 2023, we're right. We saw significant swing. Joe made the point. I think he's Absolutely right.

Speaker 2

We as a team think we're absolutely right that you're going to see that more balanced on a go forward basis in terms of year over year change. What we're trying to do is just make sure we're balanced across multiple customers, but ensuring they're the right customers. And there are, for example, some of the global JVs that are better positioned than others. And there are certainly some very strong local Chinese OEMs who are doing extremely well the China market, but have come to us with a real focus on how do we assist them, how do we enhance their capabilities to take product outside of China into principally Europe at this

Speaker 6

point in time. That's great. And then just as a last thing, because I know it will come up. Joe, I think the 2025 was 14% to 14.5% margin, 100 to 150 basis off that. Can we just kind of take that as the New 25%, it's roughly 13% and then like you said, push the year out to 26%.

Speaker 6

I just know that will come up

Speaker 3

Yes, round I think round numbers that's pretty good, Chris. If you wanted, I'd probably be closer somewhere between 12.5% 13%.

Speaker 6

Perfect. Thanks so much.

Speaker 1

Yes.

Operator

And our next question is going to come from Rod Blasch from Wolfe Research.

Speaker 7

Good morning, everybody. Just first of all, to clarify Some of the discussion off of Chris' question. Obviously, we've seen some ongoing share shift away from the Western OEMs over the past couple of years. And it sounds like the reason why you don't expect that to reoccur in 2024 is Because of the big uptick in backlog that you have from BYD, Changan and some of the other Chinese OEMs, is that essentially it?

Speaker 3

Well, I think there's a couple. I'm not sure I understand that, Rod. I think there's a couple of things. I think overall, you had some 30 plus percent growth quarters by those local OEMs, right? We do think that and again, from what we're seeing in a schedule perspective and when we look at the there's a couple of forecasting services that sort of look at that market.

Speaker 3

That starts to level off a bit, right? They catch up to some of their high comps. At the same time, launch activity with The multinationals who admittedly have had, I think some platform challenges over the last couple of years in China, do you have new launches coming up? And those launches were on those platforms, and we expect to see that sort of take their overall production up, our content up, which is how we're sort of looking at it, starting to balance out. And then you obviously have the mix inherent within our business that Kevin took you through.

Speaker 8

Okay.

Speaker 2

So Rod, at a high level, we expect Share to continue to shift to the local OEMs. I think what Joe and I were talking about is the magnitude of the shift over a relatively short period of time. We expect that Not to be the same in 2024 as it was in 2023.

Speaker 7

Right. Okay. Understood. On high voltage, It looks like you're implicitly assuming a similar level of EV growth in 2024 versus what you saw in 2023. As you've observed, there's been some slowing late in the year in 2023.

Speaker 7

Maybe you can elaborate on the models Or factors that you considered that lead you to conclude that the growth is pretty similar for EVs? And Can you maybe also give us any color on the assumptions that you make behind those high voltage bookings? Do you have a penetration assumption? Or is there Some color you can provide that helps you underwrite that level of revenue associated with the bookings?

Speaker 3

Yes. So obviously, it looks much like the rest of the other parts of our business, we're looking at customer schedules, which include customer launches. And you're right, we're right around that 20% growth rate for 2024, which was consistent with 23. There are some new program launches. Again, that business is 80% China, Europe, right?

Speaker 3

So Clearly seeing some weakening in North America, we've seen schedules come down. I think that's well understood at this point. But the combination of sort of some new product launches and where we see customer schedules and then really that Sort of the concentration we have in that business around China and Europe, I think penetration rates, we've always been lower on a relative basis. At this point where we have not looked out to sort of 2030 to update what we talked about in February, possibly that's lower than 30%. I think we were sort of well behind everyone else.

Speaker 3

But I think over the next few years, you're moving in within that sort of call it that 10% to 15% range is what our numbers would extrapolate out to.

Speaker 8

Okay. All right. Thank

Operator

you. Yes. And our next question is going to come from It's on Macauley. Please go ahead.

Speaker 2

Great. Thank you. Good morning, everyone. Just a first question on the long term growth over market, I know at the Investor Day last year, there was an expectation of some acceleration beyond 2025. Obviously, a lot changing here in the near term, but the bookings are still strong and growing.

Speaker 2

So just a question, did you still think there's scope for some GOM acceleration in the second half of the decade? Hi, it's Kevin. Listen, as it relates to is there an opportunity for accelerated growth? If you look at the last 3 years, We've booked roughly the same amount of business as we booked the prior 5 years to the start of that 3 year period. So the growth opportunity, revenue growth opportunity is significant.

Speaker 2

There are certain items as we look at growth over market and we use that as a proxy for strength of our competitive position, we're not on every OEM across the globe. And when you look at that calculation, although certainly indicative of strength of growth, it's not perfect. So, would we tell you, should there be a bias based on bookings of stronger growth, accelerating growth? Absolutely. In light of kind of the current environment and discussion about EV penetration rates as an example, Can these things shift a bit quarter to quarter or maybe a year to a year?

Speaker 2

It's possible. But as we look at where the environment is today, as we look at where investor expectations are, We think the 6% to 8% growth over market is the right sort of framework for folks to consider, for investors to consider. That's very helpful. Thanks, Kevin. And just a quick follow-up on the ADAS business.

Speaker 2

I was hoping you could share what you're expecting ADAS growth this And also maybe a bit more color on the wins with the Japanese OEMs, whether that provides further opportunities to penetrate with those OEMs?

Speaker 3

Yes, let me start with the growth rates and then Kevin can comment on the nature of the wind. So, continue to see strong growth in active safety, Would expect 2024 to be north of 20% again as it was this year. I do think, listen, one of the things we talked about just to put it in perspective, there is a large active safety business in North America with a couple of the D3 that was obviously impacted this year by the strike, right. So it's not immune to things like the strike. But the underlying fundamentals of that business, the take rates and the growth, we'll keep it above 20% again next year.

Speaker 2

Yes. As it relates to the wins with the Japanese OEMs, they were in and around radar. They're global wins. So for the Japanese in Japan as well as in Europe, China and North America. It's to be transparent, the first time we've been able to penetrate in a meaningful way, that customer base with our ADAS solutions, Part of that reflects kind of where we are from an overall technology standpoint versus their traditional supply chain, which you are all familiar with.

Speaker 2

We're confident that, that will present us with incremental opportunities on the ADAS side, on the user experience side as on the vehicle architecture side. So we're very excited about it. Terrific. That's all very helpful. Thank you.

Operator

John Murphy from Bank of America. Please go ahead.

Speaker 9

Good morning, guys. Maybe I might take a sort of different angle on sort of the growth change here. Kevin, you guys have obviously great technology and great product and almost seem to be far more than one step ahead of the industry. I guess the question is, as we look at the R and D spends, $1,500,000,000 gross, I think you guys $1,200,000,000 net when you get recoveries or sharing with your business partners. Is there a question that you may be spending too much on R and D and getting too far out in front of the growth curve here and maybe that might be an opportunity in the near term to skinny back on R and D and drive better margins cash flow and then return to shareholders.

Speaker 9

I mean, once again, the product portfolio is great. It just seems like the industry has an inability to absorb all the good tech you bring to the table.

Speaker 2

Yes. Listen, John, I think that's a good question. It's something that we watch very closely. Our advanced development spending as a percent of total engineering is Higher was higher in 2023 than it's been in the past. I'd say the bulk of that, quite frankly, has been working to productize our portfolio, which means significantly more reuse of existing technology on new platforms, which is what the industry needs.

Speaker 2

It's driving a significant amount of interest from OEMs in areas like electrification, like battery management systems, like ADAS like software, which we think is going to translate into continued growth in bookings. We talked about the $35,000,000,000 is kind of our estimate as we sit here today for 2024. I would say that number could be higher. So it's important that we continue to invest and we continue to position ourselves for growth. I would say we've doubled down our focus on how do we make engineering more efficient, how do we get more out of engineering and again, how do we drive more reuse, which allows us to be more efficient and develop higher margin solutions and allows us to deliver them to our customers at much lower Costs and I'd say equal focus on cost effective solution now as there is on innovation.

Speaker 8

Okay.

Speaker 2

But appreciate the question.

Speaker 9

And just one quick follow-up on the Just the volume outlook, flat globally, I know there's variances between regions. What are you seeing in schedules right now? I know you're some of your internal work and then external forecast. But is that jiving with the early read on schedules? You're actually seeing schedules running above or below that in any meaningful way?

Speaker 3

No, it generally jives, although to my comments, It's a build throughout the year. So my comments around revenue growth and the calendarization very much tied out So what we're seeing in schedule. So totals connected, I would say this year, unlike the last couple of years, We actually don't see much schedule disconnect between the schedules and the broader forecasting services. We did see some differences related to supply chain and stuff over the past couple of years, but they're pretty much in line, but it is back end weighted. It's just not us that's back end weighted.

Speaker 3

It is the customer production schedules

Operator

question is going to come from Mark Delaney from Goldman Sachs. Please go ahead.

Speaker 10

Yes, good morning. Thanks very much for taking the question. Incremental EBIT margins implied in guidance for 2024, I think are in the mid-twenty percent range, even adding back for the strike impact that had in 2023, is the extra margin leverage this year relative to the historical roughly 20% due to capturing the remaining COVID disruption costs? And then maybe you can talk a little bit more around how much visibility you have into pricing and how firm that is for 2024 at this stage. With OEMs dealing with a lot on their plates, there was a fear from investors they could push more on margins.

Speaker 10

So the visibility you have into achieving that higher margin leverage

Speaker 3

Yes, Mark, it's Joe. Similar to 2023, we have those bigger step downs in COVID on a year over year basis, Supply chain disruption costs. So that is helping keep that incremental flow to EBIT line a little higher than normal. I think that sort of 18% to 22% range that we usually about is still good in normalized times, but it is a little higher, much like it was last year. And then listen, I think from a pricing perspective, There has been a lot of activities we've talked about over the past couple of years as we've worked through direct material inflation and stuff.

Speaker 3

I think we're As settled as we normally are on it, there's obviously ongoing discussions with customers. But I think we're in a relatively good place and a

Operator

consistent place with where we've

Speaker 3

historically been this time of year. In place with where we've historically been this time of year. That's helpful, Joe. And then second question

Speaker 10

was just around Shifting EV plans, a number of OEMs have talked about trying to do more with hybrids and plug in hybrids. Maybe you can remind us what your content opportunity is on a and plug in hybrid compared to BEV or ICE vehicles? And how well positioned do you think Aptiv is to potentially capture some of that higher intermediate term production around hybrids and plug in hybrids? Thanks.

Speaker 2

Yes. It's Kevin. So better electric vehicles are about 3x The content opportunity as internal combustion engine vehicle, plug in high rates are 2x, Roughly 2x, the Continental Combustion Engine. When you look at our mix of high voltage bookings and roughly the same from a revenue standpoint, roughly 25% to 30% of that relates to plug in hybrid vehicles. So hopefully that gives you a bit of context.

Speaker 2

So we feel like we're very well positioned whether OEMs are producing plug in hybrids or battery electric vehicles.

Speaker 6

Thank you.

Operator

And our next question is going to come from Dan Levy with Barclays. Please go ahead.

Speaker 11

Hi, good morning. Thanks for taking the question. I wanted to just go back to the EBIT bridge and A point on the economics here. And specifically, I know in the past, you had A lot of inflation from chips. We've obviously heard a number of accounts now that on the Chip side, there's excess inventory.

Speaker 11

I'm just wondering to what extent you're embedding chip deflation in the guidance. If not, is it at upside? And then maybe you could just comment briefly on the FX piece because we're under this understanding that your hedges Unwinding and that a reset would drive some peso headwinds. So maybe just a comment on the FX in the bridge as well.

Speaker 3

Yes, I'd start with I mean, there is and again, we said as Kevin mentioned, I mean, we and I tendered most of them, Supplier meetings in CES, I mean there is no automotive chip provider at the moment that's talking about price downs. We still have a couple that are talking about increased prices based on wafer cost increases that they're saying will obviously push back hard on those and deal with them if and when they come in. But we're not seeing anything from a price down perspective nor would expect it. At this point, there's nothing in there from an opportunities perspective in the guide. Listen, as it relates to peso, Last year, we were obviously hit well above $100,000,000 by transaction and translation impacts, right, the FX moving This year, what and I mentioned this in my prepared comments, Dan, we've assumed A stronger peso in the basically in the underlying forecast, right, which makes our peso denominated cost more expensive.

Speaker 3

So if you look at that bridge, it's not showing up on the FX line because it's now forecasted at that level. But you do have about $100,000,000 round numbers going into the primarily labor going into the cost structure, which would appear in that which would appear in that other bucket and it's really the amount that's rolling through into my 2025 comments.

Speaker 11

Great. Thank you. And

Operator

then just Hey, so,

Speaker 3

Paul. Sorry, go ahead. I was just going to say, peso assumption, just to remind folks, at Investor Day was 2,050. So you got about a 10% plus strengthening in the peso. Go ahead, Dan, sorry.

Speaker 11

Great. Thank you. And then just as a follow-up, I want to go Back to the bookings and appreciate another strong year of bookings and other outlook. Maybe we could just and I think this touches on some of the prior questions, Just reconcile the strong bookings with seemingly commentary from the OEMs on just Reduced growth spend in a variety of areas. I mean, I think we hear about EVs most notably, but even just some of the challenges or push out In executing software defined vehicle or active safety, we saw there was a large OEM that pushed out one of their advanced ADAS program.

Speaker 11

So maybe you could reconcile the strong bookings activity with some of the challenges that the automakers have faced just broadly on executing on megatrend.

Speaker 2

Yes, I'll take it. Listen, it's kind of It's an interesting question, right? The question we get 2 years ago was kind of reconcile strong bookings with OEMs comments regarding in sourcing all their activities. And I think now you hear from OEMs and we experienced directly firsthand All the challenges associated with attempting to do things that, either you don't have the history of doing or don't have the capabilities, which quite frankly has presented perfect opportunities for us and it's the reason why we've invested in the areas that we've invested in. It's reason why we're building full platform solutions that are open, that are scalable, that provide flexibility and importantly Lower cost, like we fully recognize that, that we need to deliver lower cost options and solutions to our customers All the way from software and hardware development to delivery of a solution.

Speaker 2

And that's what we're focused on. And I would say That's the reason for the trend in bookings that you've seen, a value proposition that economically makes sense for our customers as well as it does for Aptiv. And then you augment that with the question about SoC material inflation, just to underscore Joe's point, we've not heard that from any of our Western SoC suppliers. In fact, some are talking about additional constraints beginning in late 2025 going into 2026. So we have deployed engineering assets in doing a couple of things.

Speaker 2

1, Dual validating or qualifying additional alternatives, so there's more flexibility to move from one chip to another and bringing that to our OEM customers as a part of our overall value proposition. In my comments, I talked about the 12 Chinese SoC suppliers who we're working closely with and making significant traction in the China market with we believe are meaningful opportunities outside of China, especially in Europe, providing lower cost at roughly equal performance. And that goes from SoC technologies to radar technologies to peripherals. And by virtue of Providing again, like I said, those leading technologies at more cost of in a more cost effective way that again provide flexibility and choice To our customers, that holistic package is attractive, and it helps solve the challenges that they're that you're aware of that they're dealing with.

Speaker 11

Great. Thank you.

Operator

Our next question is going to come from Tom Nourien from RBC. Please go ahead.

Speaker 12

Thanks for taking the question. Maybe one on emotional. I understand that the industry is kind of capitulating on Level 4, but we just love to hear kind of your thoughts on this seemingly very promising enterprise, very long term, I understand, but What specifically kind of has changed your thoughts? Is it just the fact that the industry is moving the markets moving away from it and Maybe financing using capital markets is difficult or is there something more fundamental that you're not liking about this Level 4 business?

Speaker 2

Yes, it's Kevin. Listen, we should start with Motion was on track to deliver the tech roadmap that's been laid out and should underscore that HMG has been an absolutely outstanding partner, better than as optimistic as we were at the start, Even better as a partner from both operational and a strategic standpoint. Commercialization of the technology, I. E, the cost related to delivering the tech principally in and around hardware, really makes it challenging from an adoption standpoint in the mobility on demand market. And as a result, kind of pushes out ultimately the revenue stream and the earnings stream for the business and pushes out to a point where relative to other options or opportunities that we have to invest in that will deliver profitable growth, we had to make decisions.

Speaker 2

And again, a tough decision, but given where we sit today, given the benefit that we've gotten to date, which is real, which is in and around advanced ADAS solutions. And we'll work to continue to work with Motional commercially in and around bringing their technology into our ADAS platform. But when we look at ongoing funding of the technology and when it actually gets adopted In the mobility on demand market, it's just pushed too far out to make financial sense for us given the other opportunities that we have in front of us.

Speaker 12

Got it. And just a quick follow-up, maybe on some of the other opportunities could include M and A. I know I think there was a question earlier on capital return. And We've heard this theme with, I think, Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers, potentially there could be some M and A in 2024. One obstacle is obviously interest rates.

Speaker 12

Just curious if you were to pursue this and you've had some really successful M and A in the past, where would they be and what are some of the kind of Is there something are there opportunities you find attractive currently?

Speaker 3

Yes, I mean, we've always said the pipeline is very full. We maintain it on a regular basis. Certainly don't Anything from a capital markets perspective that would preclude us from doing transactions. I think the balance sheet is in very shape. We took a lot of care over the last couple of years to push out the tenor of the debt and such.

Speaker 3

So I feel like we're in good shape from that. So we're certainly not one of the ones that's raised any concerns on that side. I think you continue to see us do things like we've done in the past, right? You'd have both for ASU X and SPS. There are bolt on opportunities, things that either enhance Technology, regional presence, and ASU acts there certainly are some opportunities.

Speaker 3

It would obviously be smaller than Wind River, but continue to invest in our software capabilities. And then there's the adjacent markets, right? We've done a very nice job over the last years of growing our adjacent market presence, both organically and inorganically, and it's been accretive to growth rates, it's accretive to margins and I'd continue to expect us to do something like that.

Speaker 12

Got it. Thanks.

Operator

Okay. And our next question is going to come from Emmanuel Rosner.

Speaker 8

Thank you very much. So I appreciate the update on the new growth of the market framework. I was hoping since it's essentially a refresh of our framework, if you could take a step back and maybe Remind us the various components or drivers of the expected growth of the market, not necessarily just 2024, just As part of the framework, either in terms of what how much growth of the market comes from each component or In terms of revenue growth, whatever is easier. But and is high voltage the only thing that is essentially lower down versus the previous framework?

Speaker 3

Yes, the walk, we won't go into more components than we've laid out, Emmanuel. I think the walk sort of indicates Within the range, certainly the largest piece not to come back is the high voltage, right? You could have again and it's a long term forecasting range. You have a little bit of movement in customer mix and just how things play out relative to Kevin's comments on the Japanese OEMs and the Chinese China mix. I think speaking to Kevin's comments, our growth rate Other than EV, which we talked about coming down to 20 from the 30, our growth rate has been what we've expected, Right.

Speaker 3

I mean, we've hit our revenue numbers. We've hit our growth rates. Our product lines are growing. This is there is a denominator element here to What we're seeing take place in the market, particularly in 2023 with the Japanese OEMs up plus 25% round numbers production in North America. So, clearly I've talked about HV slowing down.

Speaker 3

I think we've been transparent about that. But I just want to be clear, this isn't we're missing our growth numbers or we're missing our Revenue numbers, this growth over market, a big piece of that is coming from the what I'll call the denominator I don't know, Kevin, if you have anything to add?

Speaker 2

No, none. You covered it.

Speaker 8

Okay. And then one Additional clarification on emotional, please. The can you just explain a little bit the mechanics of What you will essentially try to achieve like so skipping no further funding rounds like is your JV partner Okay to fund it because I believe there is a need for funding in the fairly near term. So will that be covered by them at least in the interim? And then Will you be looking to add other options on a go forward basis?

Speaker 8

You spoke about uncertainty around the timing, but I'm not sure how much of it is already decided and it's a timing question versus things that still need to be negotiated?

Speaker 3

Yes. No, we're as I said, we have to work through obviously, we have a JV I won't comment for others involved in the joint venture. Aptiv's intention is to no longer participate in funding. And within the constructs of the joint venture agreement, we are looking at opportunities to reduce our holdings of the common stock. And that work is in process now.

Speaker 3

Just given The nature of transactions like this and the fact that we're working within a joint venture agreement, we felt it was prudent to put the full motional impact into the guide versus trying to take an educated guess at when something may complete. But obviously working through that now, but the funding decision a funding decision has been made.

Speaker 8

Understood. Thank you.

Operator

And I will this will be our last question, And it is going to come from Adam Jonas from Morgan Stanley.

Speaker 5

Hi, thanks for taking the questions. It's been a good call. How much of your CapEx and R and D is being spent to support full BEV architectures?

Speaker 2

In terms of total advanced engineering, which is the closest in development, Which you know, Adam, which is roughly 25% of our total engineering spend. We would say somewhere between 5% 10% would be bev related electrification related, I should say.

Speaker 5

All right. Thanks, Kevin. And just again, I know you're the negotiations are ongoing, but, anything to call out in terms of a breakup or walk away fee or I'd say at a high level, could investors anticipate the potential among your range of scenarios to have A potential payment to wind up your involvement with Motional?

Speaker 3

No, there's No such requirements in the joint venture agreement and we wouldn't expect to sign up for anything like that.

Speaker 6

Okay. Thanks everybody.

Speaker 3

Great. Thanks,

Operator

And then answers, and I'll turn it back over to Kevin Clark. Please go ahead.
