\n SOUTHFIELD, Mich.<\/span>, Nov. 18, 2020<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Lear Corporation (NYSE: LEA), a global automotive technology leader in Seating and E-Systems, today announced that its Board of Directors has reinstated the Company’s dividend, declaring a quarterly cash dividend on the Company’s common stock of $0.25<\/span> per share.\u00a0 The dividend is payable on December 29, 2020<\/span>, to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 10, 2020<\/span>. <\/p>\n

“I am pleased to announce the reinstatement of our dividend,” said Gregory C. Smith<\/span>, Lear’s Non-Executive Chairman. “Today’s action reflects the Board’s confidence in the Company’s financial position and outlook. The Board will continue to monitor Lear’s financial performance, and we expect to increase the dividend over time as industry conditions and, correspondingly, our financial outlook improve.”<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Lear announced a series of actions, including pay reductions and the suspension of its dividend and share repurchase programs, to preserve liquidity and ensure its financial flexibility as part of the Company’s initial response to COVID-19. In the third quarter, the Company began to reverse certain of these austerity measures for employees other than its Named Executive Officers and its Board members, as industry production recovered and financial performance improved. <\/p>\n

Effective with today’s announcement to resume the dividend, Lear will resume paying its Named Executive Officers and Board members at the same levels in place prior to the pay reductions announced in mid-April. The Company expects to repay all amounts deferred by its salaried employees by the end of 2020. Incremental pay reductions for Named Executive Officers and Board members will not be repaid.<\/p>\n
