PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 1 - CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

INTRODUCTION TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The condensed consolidated financial statements of Lear Corporation and
subsidiaries (Note 1) have been prepared by Lear Corporation ("the Company"),
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 generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations.  The Company believes 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 the Company's Form 10-K
as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the period ended
December 31, 1995 under the name "Lear Seating Corporation".  Effective as of
May 9, 1996 the Company changed its name to "Lear Corporation" from "Lear
Seating Corporation".

The financial information presented reflects all adjustments (consisting only
of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations 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 (formerly known as "Lear Seating Corporation"), a Delaware
corporation and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries ("the
Company").  Investments in less than majority-owned businesses are generally
accounted for under the equity method.

(2) ACQUISITION OF AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRIES AND PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA

     On August 17, 1995, the Company purchased the issued and outstanding
shares of common stock of Automotive Industries Holding, Inc. ("AI" or
"Automotive Industries").  AI is a leading designer and manufacturer of high
quality interior trim systems and blow molded products principally for North
American and European car and light truck manufacturers.

     The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase, and accordingly, the
assets purchased and liabilities assumed in the acquisition have been reflected
in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the operating results of AI
have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the date of
acquisition.

     The following pro forma unaudited financial data is presented to
illustrate the estimated effects of (i) the acquisition of AI, (ii) certain
acquisitions completed by AI prior to the acquisition of AI by the Company, and
(iii) the refinancing of the Company's credit facility and the issuance of
10,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock in order to repay certain
indebtedness incurred to finance the AI acquisition as if these transactions
had occurred at the beginning of the quarter ending April 1, 1995.  The pro
forma results give effect to certain adjustments consisting principally of
management's estimates of the effects on administrative expense, interest, and
goodwill amortization expense and the estimated income tax effects of these
adjustments. (Unaudited: in millions, except per share data):


                 Net sales                  $1,256.7
                 Net income                     21.4
                 Net income per share            .36

(3)  INVENTORIES

     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is determined
principally using the first-in, first-out method.  Finished goods and
work-in-process inventories include material, labor and manufacturing overhead
costs.  Inventories are comprised of the following (in millions):

(7) FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     During 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Recognition of
Impairment of Long-lived Assets", which specifies when and how impairment of
virtually all long-lived assets should be measured and recorded.  In general,
the statement requires that whenever circumstances raise doubt about the
recoverability of long-lived assets, the Company should analyze the future cash
flows expected from such assets to determine if impairment exists.  This
statement was adopted on January 1, 1996 by the Company and the effects of
adoption were not significant.

     Also during 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation", which must be adopted by the Company in 1996 and
requires that stock compensation, including compensation in the form of stock
options, be calculated using a measure of fair value, compared with intrinsic
value required under current accounting principles.  The new method may be
either reflected in the financial statements or disclosed in the notes to the
statements.  The Company will adopt this statement by disclosing the effects of
the fair value method in the notes to its 1996 annual financial statements.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 30, 1996 VS. THREE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 1, 1995.

     Net sales of $1,405.8 million in the quarter ended March 30, 1996
surpassed the first quarter of 1995 by $362.3 million or 34.7%.  Sales as
compared to the prior year benefited from the acquisition of Automotive 
Industries Holding, Inc. ("AI") in August, 1995 and new business in North 
America.

     Net sales in the United States and Canada of $916.6 million in the first
quarter of 1996 exceeded the comparable period in the prior year by $202.2
million or 28.3%.  Sales in the current quarter benefited from the contribution
of $175.4 million in sales from the AI acquisition and new Ford passenger car
and Chrysler and Ford truck programs introduced within the past twelve months.
Partially offsetting the increase in sales was a downturn in production build
schedules on mature seat programs by domestic automotive manufacturers and the
impact of a General Motors work stoppage in March, 1996.

     Net sales in Europe of $382.9 million increased in the first quarter of
1996 as compared to the first quarter of 1995 by $106.4 million or 38.5%.
Sales in the quarter ended March 30, 1996 benefited from $42.7 million in sales
from the AI acquisition, additional volume on carryover programs in Italy and
favorable exchange rate fluctuations in Sweden, Germany and Italy.

     Net sales of $106.3 million in 1996 in the Company's remaining geographic
regions, consisting of Mexico, the Pacific Rim, South Africa and South America
surpassed the first quarter of the prior year by $53.7 million or 102.1%.
Sales in the current quarter benefited from increased Chrysler truck and
General Motors passenger car activity in Mexico and to new business operations
in Australia, South America and South Africa.

     Gross profit (net sales less cost of sales) and gross margin (gross profit
as a percentage of net sales) were $120.6 million and 8.6% for the first
quarter of 1996 as compared to $76.6 million and 7.3% in 1995.  Gross profit in
the current quarter benefited from the overall growth in sport utility and
light truck seat programs in North America, the acquisition of AI and increased
sales activity on seat programs in Europe and Mexico.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses, including research and
development, as a percentage of net sales increased to 3.1% for the quarter
ended March 30, 1996 as compared to 2.5% a year earlier.  Actual expenditures
increased in comparison to prior year due to the inclusion of AI operating
expenses and increased U.S. and European engineering and administrative
expenses in support of expansion of existing and potential business
opportunities.


                                       10



<PAGE>   11




     Operating income and operating margin (operating income as a percentage of
net sales) were $70.0 million and 5.0% for the first quarter of 1996 as
compared to $47.7 million and 4.6% for the first quarter of 1995.  For the
quarter ended March 30, 1996, operating income benefited from the acquisition
of AI, increased market demand on new and ongoing sport utility and light truck
seat programs in North America and improved performance at the Company's
European and Mexican operations.  Partially offsetting the increase in
operating income were engineering and administrative support expenses,
preproduction and facility costs for new seat programs to be introduced
globally within the next twelve months and the adverse impact of the General
Motors work stoppage.  Non-cash depreciation and amortization charges were
$33.2 million and $18.4 million for the first quarter of 1996 and 1995,
respectively.

     Interest expense for the first quarter of 1996 increased by $10.2 million
from the comparable period in the prior year largely as a result of interest
incurred on additional debt utilized to finance the AI acquisition.

     Other expenses for the three months ended March 30, 1996 which include
state and local taxes, foreign exchange, equity income of non-consolidated
affiliates and other non-operating expenses, increased in comparison to prior
year due to increased state and local taxes associated with the AI acquisition.

     Net income for the first quarter of 1996 was $25.8 million, or $.43 per
share, as compared to $17.0 million, or $.34 per share, in the prior year first
quarter.  The provision for income taxes in the current quarter was $16.7
million, or an effective tax rate of 39.3% as compared to $14.4 million, or an
effective tax rate of 45.9% in the previous year.  The decline in the effective
tax rate is primarily due to changes in operating performance and related
income levels among the various tax jurisdictions.  Earnings per share
increased in 1996 by 26.5% despite the impact of the General Motors work
stoppage, estimated to be approximately $.10 per share and an increase in the
weighted average number of shares outstanding of approximately 10.6 million
shares.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     As of March 30, 1996, the Company had a $1,475.0 million secured revolving
credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") under which $715.5 million was
outstanding and $51.0 million was committed under outstanding letters of
credit, resulting in $708.5 million unused and available.  Availability under
the Credit Agreement decreases semi-annually to a limit of $850 million by the
expiration date of September 30, 2001.  In addition to debt outstanding under
the Credit Agreement, the Company had an additional $347.1 million of debt,
primarily consisting of $270.0 million of subordinated debentures due between
2000 and 2002.  $29.3 million of the additional debt is due within one year.
The Company also had $21.6 million of cash and cash equivalents available as of
March 30, 1996.


                                       11



<PAGE>   12
     Net cash flows from operating activities increased from a $35.3 million
net use of funds for the quarter ended April 1, 1995 to a $22.6 million net
source of funds for the quarter ended March 30, 1996, primarily due to earnings
before non-cash depreciation and amortization which increased by $23.6 million
and lower working capital requirements in 1996.  Working capital was a $30.0
million use of cash in the first quarter of 1996 primarily due to the increase
in net sales and the increased investment in recoverable customer engineering
and tooling.

     Cash used in investing activities was $30.7 million in the first quarter
of 1996 versus $23.5 million in the same period of 1995.  The increase was
primarily due to increased capital expenditures required as a result of the AI
acquisition.  The Company currently anticipates approximately $160 million in
capital expenditures during fiscal 1996.

     The Company believes that cash flows from operations and funds available
under existing credit facilities will be sufficient to meet its debt service
obligations, projected capital expenditures and working capital requirements.

                                LEAR CORPORATION



                                  ARTICLE 1

                                LEAR CORPORATION

     The address of the Corporation's registered office in the State of
Delaware is 1209 Orange Street, in the City of Wilmington, County of New

                                  ARTICLE 3

     The purpose of the corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity
for which a corporation may be organized under the Delaware General Corporation
Law.


                                  ARTICLE 4

     4.1 The total number of shares of stock which the Corporation shall have
authority to issue is 150,000,000 shares of Common Stock, each having a par
value of $.01 (the "Common Stock"), and 15,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock,
each having a par value of $.01 (the "Preferred Stock").

     4.2 Each holder of record of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to 
vote at all meetings of the stockholders and shall have one vote for each 
share held by him of record.

     4.3 Subject to all of the rights of the holders of all classes or series of
stock at the time outstanding having prior rights as to dividends, the holders
of the Common Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends at such times and in
such amounts as may be determined by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

     4.4 The Board of Directors is expressly authorized to provide for the 
issuance of all or any shares of the Preferred Stock in one or more classes or
series, and to fix for each such class or series such voting powers, full or
limited, or no voting powers, and such distinctive designations,
preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and

and expressed in the resolution or resolutions adopted by


<PAGE>   2


the Board of Directors providing for the issuance of such class or series
and as may be permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, including
without limitation, the authority to provide that any such class or series may
be (i) subject to redemption at such time or times and at such price or prices;
(ii) entitled to receive dividends (which may be cumulative or non-cumulative)
at such rates, on such conditions, and at such times, and payable in preference
to, or in such relation to, the dividends payable on any other class or classes
or any other series; (iii) entitled to such rights upon the dissolution of, or
upon any distribution of the assets of, the Corporation; or (iv) convertible
into, or exchangeable for, shares of any other class or classes of stock, or of

Corporation at such price or prices or at such rates of exchange and with such
adjustments; all as may be stated in such resolution or resolutions.

                                  ARTICLE 5

           The following provisions are inserted for the management of the 
business and the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation, and for further
definition, limitation and regulation of the powers of the Corporation and
of its directors and stockholders:

           (a) The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by
      or under the direction of the Board of Directors.

           (b) The directors shall have concurrent power with the stockholders
      to make, alter, amend, change, add to or repeal the By-Laws of the
      Corporation.

           (c) The number of directors of the Corporation shall be as from 
      time to time fixed by, or in the manner provided in, the By-Laws of the   
      Corporation.  Election of directors need not be by written ballot unless
      the By-Laws so provide.

           (d) The directors shall be divided into three classes designated as
      Class I, Class II and Class III, respectively.  Each class shall consist,
      as nearly as may be possible, of one-third of the total number of
      directors constituting the entire Board of Directors.  At each annual
      meeting of the stockholders, successors to the class of directors whose
      term expires at the annual meeting shall be elected for a three-year
      term.  If the number of directors is changed, any increase or decrease
      shall be apportioned among the classes so as to maintain the number of
      directors in each class as nearly as equal as possible, but in no case
      shall a decrease in the number of directors shorten the term of any
      incumbent director.  A director shall hold office until the annual
      meeting for the year in which his term expires and until his successor
      shall be elected and shall qualify, subject,






                                      -2-


<PAGE>   3


      however, to prior death, resignation, retirement or removal from office.

           (e) Subject to the rights, if any, of holders of any series of 
      Preferred Stock then outstanding, any vacancy on the Board of Directors 
      that results from an increase in the number of directors may be filled by
      a majority of the Board of Directors then in office, provided that a
      quorum is present, and any other vacancy occurring in the Board of
      Directors may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office,
      even if less than a quorum.  Any director elected to fill a vacancy
      resulting from an increase in the size of a class of directors shall hold
      office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that
      class.  Any director elected to fill a vacancy not resulting from an
      increase in the number of directors shall have the same remaining term as
      that of his predecessor.

           (f) No director shall be personally liable to the Corporation or any
      of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a
      director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty
      of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or
      omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
      knowing violation of law, (iii) pursuant to Section 174 of the Delaware
      General Corporation Law or (iv) for any transaction from which the
      director derived an improper personal benefit.

           (g) In addition to the powers and authority hereinbefore or by 
      statute expressly conferred upon them, the directors are hereby empowered
      to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be
      exercised or done by the Corporation, subject, nevertheless, to the
      provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law, this Restated
      Certificate of Incorporation, and any By-Laws adopted by the
      stockholders; provided, however, that no By-Laws hereafter adopted by the
      stockholders shall invalidate any prior act of the directors which would
      have been valid if such By-Laws had not been adopted.

                                  ARTICLE 6

           The Corporation shall indemnify, in accordance with and to the full
extent now or hereafter permitted by law, any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(including, without limitation, an action by or in the right of the
Corporation), by reason of his acting as a director of the Corporation (and the
Corporation, in the discretion of the Board of Directors, may so indemnify a
person by reason of the fact that he

                                      -3-


<PAGE>   4


is or was an officer or employee of the Corporation or is or was serving at the
request of the Corporation in any other capacity for or on behalf of the
Corporation) against any liability or expense actually or reasonably incurred
by such person in respect thereof; provided, however, that the Corporation
shall not be obligated to indemnify any such person: (1) with respect to
proceedings, claims or actions initiated or brought voluntarily without the
authorization or consent of the Corporation by such person and not by way of
defense; or (ii) for any amounts paid in settlement of an action effected
without the prior written consent of the Corporation to such settlement.  Such
indemnification is not exclusive of any other right of indemnification provided
by law, agreement or otherwise.
                                    
                                  ARTICLE 7

     No amendment to or repeal of Articles 5(f) or 6 of this Restated
Certificate of Incorporation shall apply to or have any effect on the rights of
any individual referred to in Articles 5(f) or 6 for or with respect to acts or
omissions of such individual occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

                                  ARTICLE 8

     Meetings of stockholders may be held within or without the State of
Delaware, as the By-Laws may provide.  The books of the Corporation may be kept
(subject to any provision contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law)
outside the State of Delaware at such place or places as may be designated from
time to time by the Board of Directors or in the By-Laws of the Corporation.

                                  ARTICLE 9

     No stockholder of the Corporation shall by reason of holding shares of any
class of stock have any pre-emptive or preferential right to purchase or
subscribe to any shares of any class of stock of the Corporation, now or
hereafter to be authorized, or any notes, debentures, bonds, or other
securities convertible into or carrying options or warrants to purchase shares
of any class of such stock, now or hereafter to be authorized, whether or not
the issuance of any such shares, or such notes, debentures, bonds or other
securities would adversely affect the dividend or voting rights of such
stockholder, other than such rights, if any, as the Board of Directors, in its
discretion from time to time, may grant and at such price as the Board of
Directors in its discretion may fix; and the Board of Directors may issue
shares of any class of stock of the Corporation, or any notes, debentures,
bonds or other securities convertible into or carrying options or warrants to
purchase shares of any class of such stock, without offering any such shares of
any class, either in whole or in part, to the existing stockholders of any
class of such stock.

                                 ARTICLE 10

     Whenever a compromise or arrangement is proposed between the Corporation
and its creditors or any class of them and/or between the Corporation and its
stockholders or any class of them, any court of equitable jurisdiction within
the State of Delaware may, on the application in a summary way of the
Corporation or of any creditor or stockholder thereof or on the application of
any receiver or receivers appointed for the Corporation under the provisions of
Section 291 of the Delaware General Corporation Law or on the application of
trustees in dissolution or of any receiver or receivers appointed for the
Corporation under the provisions of Section 279 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law, order a meeting of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or
of the stockholders or class of stockholders of the Corporation, as the case
may be, to be summoned in such manner as the said court directs.  If a majority
in number representing three-fourths in value of the creditors or class of
creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of the
Corporation, as the case may be, agree to any compromise or arrangement and to
any reorganization of the Corporation as a consequence of such compromise or
arrangement, the said compromise or arrangement and the said reorganization
shall, if sanctioned by the court to which the said application has been made,
be binding on all the creditors or class of creditors, and/or on all the
stockholders or class of stockholders, of the Corporation, as the case may be,
and also on the Corporation.

                                 ARTICLE 11

     The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any
provision contained in this Restated Certificate of Incorporation, in the
manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred upon
stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation.
