The increasing trend among major automotive Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to develop and integrate more of their vehicle software and system architecture in-house, aiming for full control over the Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV) stack and user experience. This strategy by OEMs, exemplified by initiatives like Volkswagen's CARIAD, Mercedes-Benz's MB.OS, and General Motors' Ultifi, poses a threat to Aptiv's Advanced Safety and User Experience (AS&UX) segment. As OEMs increasingly centralize the development of core software platforms for infotainment, active safety, and user experience, it could reduce their reliance on third-party suppliers like Aptiv for these high-value software solutions, potentially commoditizing Aptiv's hardware components and shifting significant value creation and control away from Aptiv towards their direct customers.

• The market for high-voltage electrification is expected to increase by more than 20 percent annually between now and 2030, globally.
• Demand for higher levels of vehicle safety, specifically Level 2 or higher advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), is reflected in almost 20 percent of new vehicles built, globally.

Aptiv (APTV) is expected to drive future revenue growth over the next 2-3 years through several key areas:

1. Growth in Advanced Safety and User Experience (ASUX) Technologies: Aptiv anticipates sustained strong demand and new program launches within its Advanced Safety and User Experience (ASUX) segment, particularly in active safety and Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS). The company's focus on innovation, including the launch of its Gen 8 radar product for hands-free driving, is a significant contributor to these results.
2. Electrification Content per Vehicle and Advanced Electrical/Electronic Architectures: The global shift towards electric vehicles (EVs) is driving increased demand for Aptiv's advanced electrical/electronic architectures, including high-voltage and high-speed data connectivity products. This trend is a key catalyst for robust new business bookings and growth in content per vehicle.
3. Expansion into Non-Automotive Markets: Aptiv has reported substantial growth in its non-automotive sector, with revenues nearing $3 billion in the third quarter of 2025. This diversification beyond traditional automotive applications is expected to fuel continued revenue expansion.
4. Significant New Business Bookings: The company secured $8.4 billion in new business awards during the third quarter of 2025, contributing to a strong year-to-date total of approximately $19 billion. These substantial bookings validate customer confidence and indicate strong market demand for Aptiv's advanced technologies, underpinning future revenue streams.
5. Recovery of the Automotive Market: The ongoing recovery in the broader automotive market, especially with stronger vehicle production in regions like North America and China, is projected to accelerate Aptiv's revenue growth into 2026.
