ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
On June 30, 1998, Lear Corporation (the "Company") reported that its
second quarter 1998 earnings per share will be adversely affected due to the
impact of work stoppages at General Motors plants.
Earnings per share for the quarter ending June 27, 1998, have been
adversely affected by approximately $.14 per share due to these work
stoppages. Additionally, until they are settled, these work stoppages will have
a continuing adverse effect upon the Company.
This contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ
materially from the anticipated results as a result of certain risks and
uncertainties, including, but not limited to, general economic conditions in the
markets in which the Company operates, fluctuations in the production of
vehicles for which the Company is a supplier, labor disputes involving the
Company or its significant customers, risks associated with conducting business
in foreign countries and other risks detailed from time to time in the
Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings.
