FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements that are not historical facts but rather forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements include those that address activities, events or developments that Autoliv, Inc. (“Autoliv,” the “Company” or “we”) or its management believes or anticipates may occur in the future. All forward-looking statements are based upon our current expectations, various assumptions and/or data available from third parties. Our expectations and assumptions are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that such forward-looking statements will materialize or prove to be correct as forward-looking statements are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause actual future results, performance or achievements to differ materially from the future results, performance or achievements expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements.

In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,” “may,” “likely,” “might,” “would,” “should,” “could,” or the negative of these terms and other comparable terminology, although not all forward-looking statements contain such words.

Because these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, the outcome could differ materially from those set out in the forward-looking statements for a variety of reasons, including without limitation: general economic conditions, including inflation; the impacts of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on the Company’s financial condition, business operations, operating costs, liquidity, competition and the global economy; disruptions and impacts relating to the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine; changes in light vehicle production; fluctuation in vehicle production schedules for which the Company is a supplier; global supply chain disruptions, including port, transportation and distribution delays or interruptions; supply chain disruptions and component shortages impacting the Company or the automotive industry; changes in general industry and market conditions or regional growth or decline; changes in and the successful execution of our capacity alignment: restructuring and cost reduction and efficiency initiatives and the market reaction thereto; loss of business from increased competition; higher raw material, fuel and energy costs; changes in consumer and customer preferences for end products; customer losses; changes in regulatory conditions; customer bankruptcies, consolidations or restructuring or divestiture of customer brands; unfavorable fluctuations in currencies or interest rates among the various jurisdictions in which we operate; component shortages; market acceptance of our new products; costs or difficulties related to the integration of any new or acquired businesses and technologies; continued uncertainty in pricing negotiations with customers; successful integration of acquisitions and operations of joint ventures; successful implementation of strategic partnerships and collaborations; our ability to be awarded new business; product liability, warranty and recall claims and investigations and other litigation, civil judgements or financial penalties and customer reactions thereto; higher expenses for our pension and other postretirement benefits, including higher funding needs for our pension plans; work stoppages or other labor issues; possible adverse results of pending or future litigation or infringement claims and the availability of insurance with respect to such matters; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; negative impacts of antitrust investigations or other governmental investigations and associated litigation relating to the conduct of our business; tax assessments by governmental authorities and changes in our effective tax rate; dependence on key personnel; legislative or regulatory changes impacting or limiting our business; our ability to meet our sustainability targets, goals and commitments; political conditions; dependence on and relationships with customers and suppliers; and other risks and uncertainties identified in Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Item 1A “Risk Factors” and Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on February 22, 2022.

For any forward-looking statements contained in this or any other document, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and we assume no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements in light of new information or future events, except as required by law.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unless otherwise noted, all amounts are presented in millions of dollars, except for per share amounts)

June 30, 2022

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the prior year audited consolidated financial statements and all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the consolidated financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.

The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2021 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements.

The Company has one reportable segment, which includes Autoliv’s airbag and seatbelt products and components.

Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and associated notes may not reconcile due to rounding. All percentages have been calculated using unrounded amounts. Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

Statements in this report that are not of historical fact are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could affect the actual results of the Company. A description of the important factors that could cause Autoliv’s actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this report may be found in this report and Autoliv’s other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements, footnotes and definitions thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on February 22, 2022.

2. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”).

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have an immaterial impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Adoption of new accounting standards

In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832), Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance, which increases the transparency of government assistance, including the disclosure of (1) the types of assistance, (2) an entity’s accounting for the assistance, and (3) the effect of the assistance on an entity’s financial statements. ASU 2021-10 is effective for business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021, and early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this Update should be applied either (1) prospectively to all transactions within the scope of the amendments that are reflected in financial statements at the date of initial application and new transactions that are entered into after the date of initial application or (2) retrospectively to those transactions. The Company adopted this standard prospectively on January 1, 2022 and the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.

Accounting standards issued but not yet adopted

None that is expected to have a material impact on the Company.

3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term debt and other current financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

The Company uses derivative financial instruments (“derivatives”) as part of its debt management to mitigate the market risk that occurs from its exposure to changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The Company does not enter into derivatives for trading or other speculative purposes. The Company’s use of derivatives is in accordance with the strategies contained in the Company’s overall financial policy. All derivatives are recognized in the consolidated financial statements at fair value. For certain derivatives, hedge accounting is not applied either because non-hedge accounting treatment creates the same accounting result or the hedge does not meet the hedge accounting requirements, although each hedge is entered into applying the same rationale concerning mitigating market risk that occurs from changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates.

The degree of judgment utilized in measuring the fair value of the instruments generally correlates to the level of pricing observability. Pricing observability is impacted by several factors, including the type of asset or liability, whether the asset or liability has an established market and the characteristics specific to the transaction. Instruments with readily active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of pricing observability and a lesser degree of judgment utilized in measuring fair value. Conversely, assets rarely traded or not quoted will generally have less, or no, pricing observability and a higher degree of judgment utilized in measuring fair value.

All the Company’s derivatives are classified as Level 2 financial instruments in the fair value hierarchy. Level 2 pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities include items for which quoted prices are available but traded less frequently, and items that are fair valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.

The carrying value is the same as the fair value as these instruments are recognized in the consolidated financial statements at fair value. Although the Company is party to close-out netting agreements (“ISDA agreements”) with all derivative counterparties, the fair values in the tables below and in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 have been presented on a gross basis. According to the ISDA agreements, transaction amounts payable to a counterparty on the same date and in the same currency can be netted. The amounts subject to netting agreements that the Company chose not to offset are presented below.

Derivatives designated as hedging instruments

There were no derivatives designated as hedging instruments as of June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021 related to the Company's operations.

10


Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments

Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments relate to economic hedges and are marked to market with all amounts recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The derivatives not designated as hedging instruments outstanding as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were foreign exchange swaps.

For the three months period ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the gains (losses) recognized in other non-operating items, net were $(23) million and $20 million, respectively, for derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments. For the six months period ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the gains (losses) recognized in other non-operating items, net were $(14) million and $(38) million. The realized part of the losses referred to above is reported under financing activities in the statement of cash flows.

For the three and six months periods ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the gains (losses) recognized as interest expense were immaterial.

The tables below present information about the Company’s derivative financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (dollars in millions).

Fair Value of Debt

The fair value of long-term debt is determined either from quoted market prices as provided by participants in the secondary market or for long-term debt without quoted market prices, estimated using a discounted cash flow method based on the Company’s current borrowing rates for similar types of financing. The Company has determined that each of these fair value measurements of debt reside within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value and carrying value of debt is summarized in the table below (dollars in millions).

As of
June 30, 2022 December 31, 2021
Carrying<br>value1) Fair<br>value Carrying<br>value1) Fair<br>value

Total short-term debt $ 559 $ 551 $ 346 $ 348

1) Debt as reported in balance sheet.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis

In addition to assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company also has assets and liabilities in its balance sheet that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, including certain long-lived assets, including equity method investments, goodwill and other intangible assets, typically as it relates to impairment.

The Company has determined that the fair value measurements included in each of these assets and liabilities rely primarily on Company-specific inputs and the Company’s assumptions about the use of the assets and settlements of liabilities, as observable inputs are not available. The Company has determined that each of these fair value measurements reside within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. To determine the fair value of long-lived assets, the Company utilizes the projected cash flows expected to be generated by the long-lived assets, then discounts the future cash flows over the expected life of the long-lived assets.

For the three and six months periods ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the Company did not record any material impairment charges on its long-lived assets for its operations.

4. INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the three months period ended June 30, 2022 was 32.2% compared to 31.3% for the three months period ended June 30, 2021. Discrete tax items, net for the three months period ended June 30, 2022 had an unfavorable impact of 1.5%. Discrete tax items, net for the three months period ended June 30, 2021 had an unfavorable impact of 0.2%.

The effective tax rate for the six months period ended June 30, 2022 was 31.3% compared to 29.2% for the six months period ended June 30, 2021. Discrete tax items, net for the six months period ended June 30, 2022 had an unfavorable impact of 1.0%. Discrete tax items, net for the six months period ended June 30, 2021 had a favorable impact of 0.1%.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various U.S. states and non-U.S. jurisdictions. At any given time, the Company is undergoing tax audits in several tax jurisdictions covering multiple years. The Company is no longer subject to income tax examination by the U.S. federal income tax authorities for years prior to 2015. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax examination by U.S. state or local tax authorities or by non-U.S. tax authorities for years before 2010.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company is not aware of any proposed income tax adjustments resulting from tax examinations that would have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The conclusion of such audits could result in additional increases or decreases to unrecognized tax benefits in some future period or periods.

During the six months period ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a net increase of $4 million to income tax reserves for unrecognized tax benefits based on tax positions related to the current year, including accruing additional interest related to unrecognized tax benefits from prior years. Of the total unrecognized tax benefits of $53 million recorded as of June 30, 2022, $16 million is classified as current tax payable within Other current liabilities and $37 million is classified as non-current tax payable within Other non-current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The Service cost and Amortization of prior service cost components in the tables above are reported among other employee compensation costs in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The remaining components - Interest cost, Expected return on plan assets, Amortization of actuarial loss, Settlement loss (gain) and Curtailment gain - are reported as Other non-operating items, net in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Settlement accounting has been triggered for the U.S. pension plans because the lump-sum payments made during the second quarter exceeded the sum of service cost and interest cost for these U.S. plans. Due to the settlement accounting, the obligation and plan assets for these U.S. plans have been re-measured as of June 30, 2022, which resulted in a lower net pension liability of $3 million compared to March 31, 2022. The discount rate used to determine the U.S. net periodic benefit cost because of the re-measurement was changed from previously 3.76% to 4.76% in the second quarter. The expected long-term rate of return on plan asset is unchanged at 5.05%.

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Legal Proceedings

Various claims, lawsuits and proceedings are pending or threatened against the Company or its subsidiaries, covering a range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of its business activities with respect to commercial, product liability and other matters. Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of any litigation cannot be assured. After discussions with counsel, it is the opinion of management that the various legal proceedings and investigations to which the Company currently is a party will not have a material adverse impact on the consolidated financial position of Autoliv, but the Company cannot provide assurance that Autoliv will not experience material litigation, product liability or other losses in the future.

ANTITRUST MATTERS

Authorities in several jurisdictions have conducted broad, and in some cases, long-running investigations of suspected anti-competitive behavior among parts suppliers in the global automotive vehicle industry. These investigations included, but are not limited to, the products that the Company sells. In addition to concluded matters, authorities of other countries with significant light vehicle manufacturing or sales may initiate similar investigations.

PRODUCT WARRANTY, RECALLS AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Autoliv is exposed to various claims for damages and compensation if its products fail to perform as expected. Such claims can be made, and result in costs and other losses to the Company, even where the product is eventually found to have functioned properly. Where a product (actually or allegedly) fails to perform as expected or is defective, the Company may face warranty and recall claims. Where such (actual or alleged) failure or defect results, or is alleged to result, in bodily injury and/or property damage or other loss, the Company may also face product liability and other claims. There can be no assurance that the Company will not experience material warranty, recall or product (or other) liability claims or losses in the future, or that the Company will not incur significant costs to defend against such claims. The Company may be required to participate in a recall involving its products. Each vehicle manufacturer has its own practices regarding product recalls and other product liability actions relating to its suppliers. As suppliers become more integrally involved in the vehicle design process and assume more of the vehicle assembly functions, vehicle manufacturers are increasingly looking to their suppliers for contribution when faced with recalls and product liability claims. Government safety regulators may also play a role in warranty and recall practices. A warranty, recall or product-liability claim brought against the Company in excess of its insurance may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business. Vehicle manufacturers are also increasingly requiring their outside suppliers to guarantee or warrant their products and bear the costs of repair and replacement of such products under new vehicle warranties. A vehicle manufacturer may attempt to hold the Company responsible for some, or all, of the repair or replacement costs of products when the product supplied did not perform as represented by us or expected by the customer. Accordingly, the future costs of warranty claims by customers may be material. However, the Company believes its established reserves are adequate. Autoliv’s warranty reserves are based upon the Company’s best estimates of amounts necessary to settle existing and future claims. The Company regularly evaluates the adequacy of these reserves and adjusts them when appropriate. However, the final amounts actually due related to these matters could differ materially from the Company’s recorded estimates.

In addition, as vehicle manufacturers increasingly use global platforms and procedures, quality performance evaluations are also conducted on a global basis. Any one or more quality, warranty or other recall issue(s) (including those affecting few units and/or having a small financial impact) may cause a vehicle manufacturer to implement measures such as a temporary or prolonged suspension of new orders, which may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations.

The Company maintains a program of insurance, which may include commercial insurance, self-insurance, or a combination of both approaches, for potential recall and product liability claims in amounts and on terms that it believes are reasonable and prudent based on our prior claims experience. The Company’s insurance policies generally include coverage of the costs of a recall, although costs related to replacement parts are generally not covered. In addition, a number of the agreements entered into by the Company, including the Spin-off Agreements, require Autoliv to indemnify the other parties for certain claims. Autoliv cannot assure that the level of coverage will be sufficient to cover every possible claim that can arise in our businesses or with respect to other obligations, now or in the future, or that such coverage always will be available should we, now or in the future, wish to extend, increase or otherwise adjust our insurance.

Product Liability:

On September 18, 2014, Jamie Andrews filed a wrongful death products liability suit against several Autoliv entities stemming from a fatal car accident in 2013 where the plaintiff’s husband was fatally injured. The lawsuit alleges that Autoliv should be liable for a defectively-designed driver seatbelt. The case was removed to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. The suit originally included Bosch and Mazda entities as well, but these entities were dismissed pursuant to confidential settlement agreements with the plaintiff, and all of the Autoliv entities except Autoliv Japan Ltd. were also dismissed. On January 10, 2017, the District Court entered an order granting summary judgment in favor of Autoliv, concluding that Autoliv was not actively involved in the design of Mr. Andrews’s seatbelt and, therefore, should not be liable for plaintiff’s claims as a matter of law. However, on appeal, the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the decision, holding that, under Georgia’s products liability statute, Autoliv could be liable for a design defect associated with the seatbelt, regardless of its level of involvement in the seatbelt’s ultimate design, because Autoliv manufactured it. On October 4, 2021, the case proceeded to a bench trial before the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. On December 31, 2021, the District Court entered a Final Order and Judgment concluding that Mr. Andrews’s seatbelt was defectively designed and Autoliv was strictly liable for the design. In doing so, the District Court concluded that Mr. Andrews had incurred $27,019,343 in compensatory damages, but only ordered Autoliv to pay 50 percent of that amount, $13,509,671 after finding that 50 percent of the fault for Mr. Andrews’s damages should be apportioned to Mazda. The Court declined to apportion any fault for Mr. Andrews’s damages to Mr. Andrews or Bosch. The District Court also entered an award of punitive damages against Autoliv in the amount of $100,000,000. The plaintiff has since filed a post-trial motion asking the District Court to hold Autoliv liable for the entire amount of compensatory damages ($27,019,343), not just $13,509,671. The plaintiff has also requested pre-judgment interest on the damages awards plus attorneys’ fees and costs. Autoliv has opposed these requests.

The Company believes the District Court’s verdict was in error, including the grossly high punitive damages award, and has filed a post-trial motion with the District Court asking for reconsideration of the verdict. To the extent its post-trial motion is denied, the Company also plans to appeal the verdict.

The Company has determined that a loss with respect to this litigation is probable and in the fourth quarter of 2021 accrued $14 million pursuant to ASC 450. The accrual is reflected in the total product liability accrual. This amount reflects the low end of the range of a probable loss of $14 million to $114 million. The accrual reflects the Company’s best estimate of the probable loss based on currently available information and does not include any amount for the punitive damages. It is reasonably possible that the Company may have to pay the entire damages awarded by the District Court. The Company believes that its insurance should cover all of the types of damages awarded by the District Court, and has therefore recognized a receivable, included within Other non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets for the expected insurance proceeds. However, the extent of the Company's insurance coverage for punitive damages in this matter is uncertain and may be less than all of such punitive damages ultimately awarded. In the event all or a portion of the punitive damages award survives the Company's post-judgement actions, the Company will continue to engage with our insurance carriers and aggressively pursue all potential recoveries. The ultimate loss to the Company of the litigation matter could be materially different from the amount the Company has accrued. The Company cannot predict or estimate the duration or ultimate outcome of this matter.

Specific Recalls:

In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company was made aware of a potential recall by one of its customers (the “Unannounced Recall”). The Company continues to evaluate this matter with its customer. The Company has determined pursuant to ASC 450 that a loss with respect to the Unannounced Recall is probable and has accrued an amount that is reflected in the total product liability accrual in the fourth quarter of 2020. The amount by which the product liability accrual exceeds the product liability insurance receivable with respect to the Unannounced Recall is $26 million, and includes self-insurance retention costs and deductibles. The ultimate loss to the Company of the Unannounced Recall could be materially different from the amount the Company has accrued.

Volvo Car USA, LLC (together with its affiliates, “Volvo”) has recalled approximately 762,000 vehicles relating to the malfunction of inflators produced by ZF (the “ZF Inflator Recall”). The recalled ZF inflators were included in airbag modules supplied by the Company only to Volvo. The recall commenced in November 2020 and later expanded in September 2021. Because the Company’s airbags were involved with the ZF Inflator Recall, the Company has determined pursuant to ASC 450 that a loss is reasonably possible with respect to the ZF Inflator Recall. The Company continues to evaluate this matter with Volvo and ZF and no accrual has been made. Although the Company currently estimates a range of $0 to $43 million with respect to this potential loss, the Company anticipates that any losses net of insurance claims and claims against ZF will be immaterial.

16


Intellectual Property:

The Company utilizes technologies in its products, which may be subject to intellectual property rights of third parties. While the Company does seek to procure the necessary rights to utilize intellectual property rights associated with its products, it may fail to do so. Where the Company so fails, the Company may be exposed to material claims from the owners of such rights. Where the Company has sold products that infringe upon such rights, its customers may be entitled to be indemnified by the Company for the claims they suffer as a result thereof. Such claims could be material.

The table in Note 7. Product-Related Liabilities above summarizes the change in the balance sheet position of the product-related liabilities.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

The Company managed good execution in a challenging environment in the second quarter, leading to better-than-expected results.

A strong performance in June, with some LVP recovery and progress in the customer price discussions, including some retroactive compensations, means that the Company is reporting a second quarter adjusted operating margin (Non-U.S. GAAP measure) that is better than in the first quarter. Supply chains remained distressed in the quarter, aggravated by lockdowns in China. Raw material cost increases, currency movements and a lower-than-expected and volatile LVP were also major challenges in the quarter. Cash flow was negative in the quarter, mainly due to volatility and timing effects on working capital. The Company expects to recover most of these effects in the second half of the year.

In a quarter where the Company saw continued low and volatile LVP, Autoliv managed to outperform global LVP significantly, despite negative regional mix effects.

It is encouraging that the Company is making progress in compensation from its customers in the form of sustainable price increases. Discussions continue where the Company aims for prices that reflect changes in the cost environment and a contract structure that is flexible and allows for broader and faster adjustments to future changes in the business environment.

Recent developments in supply chains, customer production plans, raw material prices and the Company's cost recovery discussions are encouraging and the Company believes it is well prepared for an improved market development. However, the Company is also making sure it is agile and prepared for more adverse market development should that be necessary. Therefore, the Company continues to step up its cost control measures. Cost reductions and footprint initiatives are on plan and include capacity alignments and footprint optimizations.

The Company is adjusting its full year 2022 indication to a narrower range, reflecting the Company's actions and the shorter time span remaining of the year. Although the leverage ratio (Non-U.S. GAAP measure) currently is above the Company's target range, the Company remains committed to its share repurchase ambitions over time.

The Company remains confident in its medium-term adjusted operating margin (Non-U.S. GAAP measure) target of 12%, based on the framework the Company outlined at its Capital Market Day in 2021.

Financial highlights in the second quarter of 2022

$2,081m net sales

2.9% net sales increase

8.0% organic sales increase (Non-U.S. GAAP measure)

6.0% operating margin

6.0% adjusted operating margin (Non-U.S. GAAP measure)

$0.91 EPS - a decrease of 24%

$0.90 adjusted EPS (Non-U.S. GAAP measure) - a decrease of 25%

Key business developments in the second quarter of 2022

• Sales increased organically (Non-U.S. GAAP measure) by 8%, which was around 7pp better than global LVP which increased by around 1% (IHS Markit July 2022). The outperformance was mainly due to price increases and new product launches.

• Stronger than expected performance in June driven by price increases, LVP recovery and a patent litigation settlement led to a better-than-expected operating profit for the quarter. However, profitability declined due to higher raw material costs, currency movements, low and volatile LVP and lockdowns in China. Operating margin and adjusted operating margin (Non-U.S. GAAP measure) declined by 2.2pp. Commercial recoveries relating to periods prior to second quarter 2022 and the patent litigation settlement combined amounted to around $50 million in the quarter. Return on capital employed was 13.1%.

• Negative Q2 operating cash flow, expected to recover in the second half. Operating cash flow was negative $51 million and free cash flow (Non-U.S. GAAP measure) was negative $190 million impacted by adverse effects from working capital. Net debt (Non-U.S. GAAP measure) increased and EBITDA declined versus a year earlier, leading to a leverage ratio of 1.7x. A dividend of $0.64 per share was paid and 0.30 million shares were repurchased in the quarter.

Business update relating to COVID-19, the war in Ukraine and other market conditions

COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic continued to impact the Company's business in the second quarter of 2022 through limited LVP by its customers caused by global semiconductor shortage and other industry supply chain disruptions. The second quarter of 2022 saw global LVP growth year over year by around 1% (according to IHS Markit July 2022). Supply chain disruptions that led to low customer demand visibility and material changes to customer call-offs with short notice negatively impacted our production efficiency and profitability in the quarter. Rising raw material costs amounted to almost 6pp in operating margin headwind in the second quarter, of which a large part was offset by commercial customer recoveries, including retroactive compensations.

Direct COVID-19 related costs, such as personal protective equipment, quarantine costs and similar items, were around $8 million in the second quarter of 2022. Governmental support in connection with furloughing, short-term work weeks, and other similar activities was around $0.5 million in the quarter.

Pandemic related lockdowns in China in April resulted in significant loss of production and adversely impacted sales and profitability. June was not impacted by lockdowns.

The Company expects the current industry-wide semiconductor supply shortage to be a limiting factor for the global LVP recovery in 2022. The Company also expects that the current price environment could lead to raw material costs of up to 5.5pp in operating margin headwind for the full year of 2022, with similar year over year impact in all quarters. The Company is currently in discussions with its customers regarding price increases and the Company believes product price increases should gradually offset the cost inflation. The Company achieved significant price increases in the second quarter and expect further positive results in the second half of 2022.

In response to the increased challenging market conditions, the Company continues with strict cost control measures, a hiring freeze and accelerated cost savings and footprint activities. The situation is monitored closely, and further actions are being evaluated.

The war in Ukraine

The direct impact of the war in Ukraine on the Company's business has been relatively limited. In 2021, sales in Russia were less than 1.0% of total sales. The Company has one facility with less than 200 employees in Russia. The Company's net assets in Russia, mainly USD cash items, amount to around $14 million. The Company has no operations in Ukraine. The Company has identified four sub-suppliers in Ukraine and the Company is supporting its suppliers in relocating that sourcing. The Company has been able to fulfill its delivery commitments to its customers. The war initially impacted European LVP negatively due to component shortages. The actions undertaken by the impacted suppliers to relocate sourcing are either activated or could be immediately activated in emergency cases. The shortage situation has improved and is not currently materially impacting LVP.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The following table shows some of the key ratios management uses internally to analyze the Company's current and future financial performance and core operations as well as to identify trends in the Company’s financial conditions and results of operations. The Company has provided this information to investors to assist in meaningful comparisons of past and present operating results and to assist in highlighting the results of ongoing core operations. These ratios are more fully explained below and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The Company's management uses the Return on capital employed (ROCE) and Return on total equity (ROE) measures for purposes of comparing its financial performance with the financial performance of other companies in the industry and providing useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business. As used by the Company, ROCE is annualized operating income and income from equity method investments, relative to average capital employed. The Company believes ROCE is a useful indicator of long-term performance both absolute and relative to the Company's peers as it allows for a comparison of the profitability of the Company’s capital employed in its business relative to that of its peers.

ROE is the ratio of annualized income (loss) relative to average total equity for the periods presented. The Company’s management believes that ROE is a useful indicator of how well management creates value for its shareholders through its operating activities and its capital management.

The main contributor to Seatbelt products organic growth (Non-U.S. GAAP measure) was Europe and Americas, partly offset by a small decline in China.

Sales by region

The Company's global organic sales (Non-U.S. GAAP measure) increased by 8% compared to the global LVP increase of around 1% (according to IHS Markit July 2022). The 7pp outperformance was driven by price increases and new product launches, partly offset by negative geographical mix effects. Autoliv outperformed LVP by around 15pp in Europe, by around 10pp in Japan and by around 8pp in Americas. The Company underperformed by around 4pp in China reflecting that lower-end vehicles production grew while higher-end vehicle production declined. The Company underperformed by around 3pp in Rest of Asia.

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material current or future effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company’s future contractual obligations have not changed materially from the amounts reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on February 22, 2022.

Second quarter of 2022 development

Trade working capital (Non-U.S. GAAP measure, see calculation table below) was reduced by $116 million compared to the same period last year, where the main drivers were related to $178 million higher accounts payables, partly offset by $60 million in higher receivables.

Operating cash flow decreased by $114 million to negative $51 million compared to the same period last year, mainly due to unfavorable changes in operating working capital related mainly to sales volatility and timing effects.

Capital expenditure, net increased by $42 million, which mainly reflects investments related to footprint and capacity expansions. Capital expenditure, net in relation to sales was 6.7% versus 4.8% a year earlier.

Free cash flow (Non-U.S. GAAP measure, see calculation table below) was negative $190 million, compared to negative $33 million a year earlier. The decline was due to the lower operating cash flow and higher capital expenditure, net.

Total equity decreased by $56 million compared to June 30, 2021, mainly due to dividends paid of $222 million, adverse currency translation effects of $176 million, and $40 million from share repurchases partly offset by $338 million from net income.

First six months 2022 development

Operating cash flow decreased by $230 million to $19 million compared to the same period last year, mainly due to lower net income and changes in operating working capital.

Capital expenditure, net decreased by $34 million, which mainly reflects $95 million in proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment partly offset by increased investments related to footprint and capacity expansions. Capital expenditure, net in relation to sales was 3.7% versus 4.4% a year earlier.

Free cash flow (Non-U.S. GAAP measure, see calculation table below) was negative $137 million, compared to positive $60 million a year earlier. The decline was due to the lower operating cash flow, partly offset by the property sale in Japan.

NON-U.S. GAAP MEASURES

The Company believes that comparability between periods is improved through the exclusion of certain items. To assist investors in understanding the operating performance of Autoliv's business, it is useful to consider certain U.S. GAAP measures exclusive of these items. Accordingly, the tables below reconcile from U.S. GAAP to the equivalent non-U.S. GAAP measure.

The Company uses the non-U.S. GAAP measure “Trade working capital,” as defined in the table below, in its communications with investors and for management’s review of the development of the trade working capital cash generation from operations. The reconciling items used to derive this measure are, by contrast, managed as part of the Company’s overall cash and debt management, but they are not part of the responsibilities of day-to-day operations’ management.

The non-U.S. GAAP measure “Net debt” is also used in the non-U.S. GAAP measure “Leverage ratio”. Management uses this measure to analyze the amount of debt the Company can incur under its debt policy. Management believes that this policy also provides guidance to credit and equity investors regarding the extent to which the Company would be prepared to leverage its operations. For details on leverage ratio refer to the table below.

The forward-looking non-U.S. GAAP financial measures above are provided on a non-U.S. GAAP basis. The Company has not provided a U.S. GAAP reconciliation of these measures because items that impact these measures, such as costs related to capacity alignments and antitrust matters, cannot be reasonably predicted or determined.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation has been carried out, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this report.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In the ordinary course of our business, we are subject to legal proceedings brought by or against us and our subsidiaries.

See Part I, Item 1, "Financial Statements, Note 9 Contingent Liabilities" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a summary of certain ongoing legal proceedings. Such information is incorporated into this Part II, Item 1—"Legal Proceedings" by reference.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Except as set forth below, as of June 30, 2022, there have been no material changes to the risk factors that were previously disclosed in Item 1A in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on February 22, 2022.

We are currently operating in a period of significant macro-economic uncertainty, including global disruption of LVP due to supply-chain disruptions and COVID-related lockdowns and increasing inflationary pressures and commodity costs. Although we have minimum operations in Russia, the war in Ukraine and the current COVID-related lockdowns in China are exacerbating commodity cost increases, supply chain challenges and volatility with our customers’ production schedules. If the war in Ukraine continues for a lengthy period or spreads or the COVID-related lockdowns in China continue for a lengthy period or spread, it may have a materially negative impact on our business and results of operations.

The macro-economic uncertainty has been exacerbated by the war in Ukraine. Although the length and impact of the ongoing war is highly unpredictable, it exacerbated volatility in commodity prices, inflationary pressures, credit markets, foreign exchange rates and supply chain disruptions. Furthermore, governments in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and European Union have each imposed export controls on certain products and financial and economic sanctions on certain industry sectors and parties in Russia. Existing or additional sanctions could further adversely affect the global economy further disrupt the global supply chain. Inflation is also currently high world-wide and may continue for an unforeseen time.

Due in part to the negative impact of the war in Ukraine and the current COVID lock-downs in China, we have experienced exacerbated increases in raw materials and increased costs for transportation, energy, and commodities. Although we are negotiating with our customers with respect to these additional commodity costs increases, commercial negotiations with our customers may not be successful or may not offset all of the adverse impact of higher transportation, energy and commodity costs. Additionally, even if we are successful with respect to negotiations with customers relating to commodity cost increases, there may be delay before we recover any increased costs. These may have a material negative impact on our business and results of operations.

For additional information see Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on February 22, 2022.

(i) the affected Lender will participate in the relevant Loan only to the extent that its applicable Outstandings will not exceed its Overall Commitment;

(c) The Designating Lender will act as the representative of any Substitute Affiliate Lender it nominates for all administrative purposes under this Agreement. The Obligors, the Facility Agent and the other Finance Parties will be entitled to deal only with the Designating Lender, except that payments will be made in respect of Designated Loans to the Facility Office of the Substitute Affiliate Lender. In particular the Commitments of the Designating Lender will not be treated as reduced by the introduction of the Substitute Affiliate Lender for voting purposes under this Agreement or the other Finance Documents.

(f) Any Substitute Affiliate Lender or Designating Lender acting by a Substitute Facility Office is only entitled to receive payment under Clause 15 (Taxes) and Clause 16 (Increased Costs) to the same extent as the relevant Designating Lender would have been entitled prior to designating that Substitute Affiliate Lender or the Substitute Facility Office (as applicable), unless those payments arose as a result of circumstances which arose after such designation.

(b) Cost of funds: If paragraph (a) above applies but no Interpolated Screen Rate is available for the relevant currency or Interest Period there shall be no EURIBOR, STIBOR or other Benchmark Rate (as applicable) for that Loan and Clause 11.4 (Cost of funds) shall apply to that Loan for that Interest Period.

11.2 Interest calculation if no RFR or Central Bank Rate

If:

(a) there is no applicable RFR or Central Bank Rate for the purposes of calculating the Daily Non-Cumulative Compounded RFR Rate for an RFR Banking Day during an Interest Period for a Compounded Rate Loan; and

11.4 Cost of funds

(a) If this Clause 11.4 applies to a Loan for an Interest Period, Clause 10.1 (Interest rate ) shall not apply to that Loan for that Interest Period and the rate of interest on each Lender's share of that Loan for that Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum of:

(i) the applicable Margin; and

(ii) the rate notified to the Facility Agent by that Lender as soon as practicable and in any event, no later than the date falling five Business Days before the date on which interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period, to be that rate which expresses as a percentage rate per annum its cost of funds relating to its participation in that Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select (such calculation of cost shall be certified in reasonable detail and disclosed to the Obligors' Agent, provided that this shall not in any way require a Lender to reveal any information it considers to be confidential about itself or its operations).

15.5 Tax credit

If an Obligor makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Finance Party determines that:

(a) a Tax Credit is attributable to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part, to that Tax Payment or to a Tax Deduction in consequence of which that Tax Payment was required; and

(b) that Finance Party has obtained and utilised that Tax Credit,

the Finance Party shall pay an amount to the Obligor which that Finance Party determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by the Obligor.

15.6 VAT

(a) All amounts expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (b) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Party must pay to such Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any

other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Finance Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that Party).

(b) If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the Supplier) to any other Finance Party (the Recipient) under a Finance Document, and any Party other than the Recipient (the Relevant Party) is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration):

(i) (where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. The Recipient must (where this paragraph (i) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Recipient receives from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to the VAT chargeable on that supply; and

(ii) (where the Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT.

(c) Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a Finance Party for any cost or expense, that Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Finance Party for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Finance Party reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

(d) Any reference in this Clause 15.6 to any Party shall, at any time when such Party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the representative member of such group at such time (the term representative member to have the same meaning as in the Value Added Tax Act 1994).

(e) In relation to any supply made by a Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document, if reasonably requested by such Finance Party, that Party must promptly provide such Finance Party with details of that Party's VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Finance Party's VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply.

(c) Paragraph (a) above shall not oblige any Finance Party to do anything and paragraph (a)(iii) above shall not oblige any other Party to do anything, which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of:

(iii) any duty of confidentiality.

(d) If a Party fails to confirm whether or not it is a FATCA Exempt Party or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with paragraph (a)(i) or (ii) above (including where paragraph (c) above applies), then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments under them) as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party until such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information.

DOCPROPERTY cpFooterText

DOCPROPERTY cpHeaderText
---

of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored in insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of each Guarantor under this Clause 18 will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred.

18.5 Waiver of defences

The obligations of each Guarantor under this Clause 18 will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 18 (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Finance Party) including:

(a) any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Obligor or other person;

(b) the release of any other Obligor or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of any member of the Group;

(d) any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of an Obligor or any other person;

18.7 Immediate recourse

Each Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring any Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from

DOCPROPERTY cpFooterText
DOCPROPERTY cpCombinedRef 0081193-0000087 UKO1: 2007867279.12 60
DOCPROPERTY cpHeaderText

any person before claiming from that Guarantor under this Clause 18. This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.

18.8 Appropriations

Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, each Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:

(a) refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and no Guarantor shall be entitled to the benefit of the same; and

(b) hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from any Guarantor or on account of any Guarantor's liability under this Clause 18.

18.9 Deferral of Guarantor's rights

(a) to be indemnified by an Obligor;

(b) to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of any Obligor's obligations under the Finance Documents;

(c) to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Finance Parties under the Finance Documents or of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, the Finance Documents by any Finance Party;

(d) to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring any Obligor to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which any Guarantor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 18.1 (Guarantee and Indemnity);

(e) to exercise any right of set-off against any Obligor; and/or

(f) to claim or prove as a creditor of any Obligor in competition with any Finance Party.

If a Guarantor receives any benefit, payment or distribution in relation to any such rights it shall hold that benefit, payment or distribution (to the extent necessary to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Finance Parties by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents to be repaid in full) on trust for the Finance Parties and shall promptly pay or transfer the same as the Facility Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause 14 (Payments).

EX-10.2

Exhibit 10.2

AUTOLIV, INC.

NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION POLICY

Effective May 1, 2022

I. Adoption Date; Effective Date. On May 10, 2022 (the “Adoption Date”), the Board adopted this Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy, to be effective May 1, 2022.

II. Retainers. The following retainers, subject to proration as described below, shall remain in effect until changed by the Board:

Cash RSUs<br><br>(Grant Date Value) Total Retainer
Annual Base Retainer
All Non-Employee Directors $127,500 $147,500 $275,000
Annual Supplemental Retainers
Non-Executive Chairman $85,000 $85,000 $170,000
Lead Independent Director $40,000 - $40,000
Audit and Risk Committee Chair $30,000 - $30,000
Leadership Development and Compensation Committee Chair $20,000 - $20,000
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Chair $20,000 - $20,000

III. Payment Schedule

Annual Base Retainer

1) Payment in Cash. The cash portion of the applicable retainer will be paid (a) in advance, (b) on a quarterly basis and (c) prorated as described below.

“Quarterly Service Period” Payment Date
May 1 to July 31 3 business days after the date of Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (“AGM”)
August 1 to October 31 August 1*
November 1 to January 31 November 1*
February 1 to April 30 February 1*

• If a non-employee director is newly appointed or elected to the Board at the AGM, then his or her first quarterly cash payment will be prorated to reflect two full calendar months of service (e.g. if the AGM is in May, then the first quarterly cash payment will be with respect to service during June and July of such Quarterly Service Period).

• If a non-employee director is newly appointed or elected to the Board at any time other than at an AGM, then his or her first quarterly cash payment will be prorated to reflect the number of full calendar months of service between the effective date of the non-employee director’s appointment or election through the last day of the respective Quarterly Service Period (e.g. if a non-employee director is appointed to the Board on December 15, then his or her first

quarterly cash payment will be with respect to service during January of such Quarterly Service Period), and will be paid on the third business day following the date of his or her appointment or election.

• If a non-employee director is not re-elected at the AGM, or a newly-nominated individual is not elected as a non-employee director at the AGM, then he or she will not receive any cash payment for services during the month of such AGM.

*If the payment date is not a business day, then the applicable payment shall be made on the first business day immediately following the payment date.

2) Payment in Stock. Subject to share availability under the amended and restated Autoliv, Inc. 1997 Stock Incentive Plan, as the same may be amended from time to time (the “Plan”), a portion of the applicable retainer(s) may be paid in the form of restricted stock units (the “Annual RSU Award”) granted on the date that the AGM is held (or, if the person becomes a non-employee director at any time other than at an AGM, the first business day following the effective date on which the person becomes a non-employee director) (in either case, a “RSU Grant Date”). The Annual RSU Awards will be granted under, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Plan, and will vest on the earlier of (i) date of the next AGM, or (ii) the one-year anniversary of the RSU Grant Date (the “RSU Vesting Date”), subject to the non-employee director’s continued service on the Board on the RSU Vesting Date. If a non-employee director’s service on the Board terminates for any reason prior to the RSU Vesting Date, then he or she will forfeit the Annual RSU Award. The number of RSUs granted pursuant to the Annual RSU Award will be determined by (A) dividing the RSU Grant Date Value amount in the table above by the closing price of a share of Common Stock on the RSU Grant Date and (B) rounding to the nearest whole number. If a non-employee director is newly appointed or elected to the Board at any time other than at an AGM, then the dollar value of his or her Annual RSU Award will be prorated based on the number of full calendar months between the effective date of the non-employee director’s appointment or election through the month in which the next AGM will be held.

Lead Director and Committee Chair Retainers

Lead Director and Committee Chair annual supplemental retainers will be paid in cash quarterly in advance, as set forth in the table above, and subject to proration as described under the “Annual Base Retainer” section above. In the event a non-employee director is serving as Committee Chair during a Quarterly Service period and leaves such appointment to be appointed as a Committee Chair with a higher retainer or as Lead Director during the same Quarterly Service Period, the quarterly retainer for such director will be re-calculated pro-rated for days of service in each role during the quarter and the difference is paid on the third business day following his or her appointment.

Stock Ownership Policy. Non-employee directors are required to hold shares of Common Stock granted pursuant to the Annual Stock Grants until he or she has met the ownership requirements set forth in the Autoliv, Inc. Stock Ownership Policy for Non-Employee Directors. Compliance with this policy is monitored by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

EX-10.3

Exhibit 10.3

2022 RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS GRANT AGREEMENT

For Non-Employee Directors

Applicable to Restricted Stock Units promised under the Autoliv, Inc. 1997 Stock Incentive Plan

(as amended and restated)

Your above-described grant of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) is subject to the following provisions in addition to those set forth in the attached Notice of Grant (the “Grant Notice”) and the Autoliv, Inc. 1997 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “Plan”):

1. Defined Terms: Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Plan.

2. Vesting: The RSUs have been credited to a bookkeeping account (“Account”) on your behalf as of the grant date specified in the Grant Notice (the “Grant Date”). Your Account will reflect the number of RSUs awarded to you as set forth in the Grant Notice, as well as any additional RSUs credited as a result of dividend equivalents, as described in Section 9 below. Each RSU represents an unfunded, unsecured right to receive Common Stock, subject to the terms and conditions stated in the Plan and this Grant Agreement. Your RSUs will vest and become non-forfeitable on the earliest to occur of the following (each, a “Date of Vesting”):

(a) as to all of the RSUs, on the Date of Vesting specified in the Grant Notice, provided that you are then still providing services as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”); or

(b) as to all of the RSUs, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control as described in Section 5 below, provided that you are then still providing services as a member of the Board.

(c) as to all of RSUs, upon death or disability.

If your service on the Board terminates for any reason other than death, disability, or a Change-in-Control as described in Section 5, you will forfeit all right, title and interest in and to the unvested RSUs as of the date of such termination, and the unvested RSUs will be re-conveyed to the Company without further consideration or any act or action by you.

3. Conversion to Shares of Common Stock; Procedure at Date of Vesting:

a. Unless the RSUs are forfeited prior to the Date of Vesting as provided in Section 2 above, the RSUs will be converted on the Date of Vesting to actual shares of Common Stock. The shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Grant Agreement shall be issued in the form of book-entry shares of Common Stock in your name as the beneficial owner as of the Date of Vesting.

b. You will, if requested, within the specified time set forth in any such request (not to exceed 30 days), deliver to the Company such written representations and undertakings as may, in the opinion of the Company’s legal counsel, be necessary or desirable to comply with tax and securities laws.

4. Securities Law Restrictions; Insider Trading Policy:

You may not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock in a manner which would violate any applicable laws, including, without limitation, the laws of Sweden, U.S. federal

and state securities laws, U.S. federal law, the requirements of any stock exchange or quotation system upon which the Common Stock may then be listed or quoted and any laws of any other country or jurisdiction that may be applicable to you.

In connection with receipt of this Grant Agreement, you acknowledge that you are subject to the Company’s AS 314 Insider Trading Policy which may be found in the “Director Library” within the board information portal (currently BoardVantage) and is also available upon request to the Legal department of the Company.

5. Change in Control of the Company:

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, your RSUs shall immediately vest in full under the following situations:

a. If (i) a Change in Control occurs prior to the Date of Vesting and while you are an Autoliv Board member, and (ii) the surviving entity is not a public company with shares listed on a public stock exchange, then as of the effective date of the Change in Control, RSUs shall immediately vest in full.

b. If (i) a Change in Control occurs prior to the Date of Vesting and while you are an Autoliv Board member, (ii) the RSUs are assumed and equitably converted by the surviving entity which is a publicly traded company with shares listed on a public stock exchange, and (iii) you will be asked to leave the Board by the Company without cause before the date of vesting, then as of your date of termination, your equitably converted RSUs shall immediately vest in full if they have not vested by that date.

6. Non-Transferability:

Your RSUs are personal to you and shall not be transferable by you otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

7. Conformity with Plan:

Your RSUs are intended to conform in all respects with the Plan, including any future amendments thereto. Inconsistencies between this Grant Agreement and the Plan shall be

resolved in accordance with the terms of the Plan. All definitions stated in the Plan shall be fully applicable to this Grant Agreement.

8. Service and Successors:

Nothing herein or in the Grant Notice or in the Plan confers any right or obligation on you to continue providing services to the Company or shall affect in any way your right or the right of the Company or any subsidiary, as the case may be, to terminate your service at any time. This Grant Agreement, the Grant Notice and the Plan, including any future amendments thereto, shall be binding upon you, your estate, any person succeeding to your rights hereunder and any successor or successors of the Company. The RSUs do not confer to you or any person succeeding to your rights hereunder any rights of a shareholder of the Company unless and until shares of Common Stock are in fact issued to you or such person in connection with the settlement of the RSUs.

9. Dividend Equivalent Rights:

Subject to share availability under the Plan, any cash dividend paid with respect to the Common Stock for which the record date occurs on or after the Grant Date and the payment date occurs on or before the Date of Vesting will result in a credit to your Account of additional RSUs equal to (a)

the dollar amount of the dividend per share of Common Stock multiplied by the number of RSUs credited to your Account as of the applicable record date, divided by (b) the closing price per share of the Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the applicable dividend payment date. The additional RSUs credited pursuant to this Section 9 will be subject to the same vesting schedule, forfeiture and other terms that apply to the original RSUs. On the Date of Vesting, the aggregate number of any additional RSUs credited pursuant to this Section 9 over time shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share. RSUs that, at the relevant dividend payment date, previously have been settled or forfeited will not be eligible to receive dividend equivalents pursuant to this Section 9.

10. Tax:

You are totally responsible for paying all taxes that you incur in respect of this Grant Agreement. The Company has the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require you to remit, an amount sufficient to satisfy all applicable taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of vesting or settlement of the RSUs. The withholding requirement may be satisfied, in whole or in part, by withholding from the settlement of the RSUs, shares of Common Stock having a fair market value on the date of withholding equal to the minimum amount (and not any greater amount unless such other withholding rate will not cause an adverse accounting consequence or cost) required to be withheld for tax purposes, all in accordance with such procedures as the Company establishes. The obligations of the Company hereunder will be conditional on such payment, and the Company will, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to you.

11. Governing Law:

This Grant Agreement, the Grant Notice and the Plan shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, and, to the extent relevant, the local laws of your home country.

12. Severability:

If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Grant Agreement are invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the other provisions of this Grant Agreement will be construed and enforced as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been included.

13. Director Stock Ownership Requirements:

In connection with receipt of this Grant Agreement, you acknowledge that you are subject to the Company’s policy regarding “Stock Ownership Policy for Directors”.

14. Fractional Shares:

No fractional shares of Common Stock, nor the cash value of any fractional shares of Common Stock, will be issuable or payable to you pursuant to this Agreement.
