Financial Report January - March 2016

Strong sales growth and improved operating margin
(Stockholm, April 29, 2016) – – – For the three-month period ended March 31,
2016, Autoliv, Inc. (NYSE: ALV and SSE: ALIV.Sdb) – the worldwide leader in
automotive safety systems – reported consolidated sales of $2,430 million.
Quarterly organic sales* grew by close to 15%. The adjusted operating margin*
was 9.1% (for non-U.S. GAAP measures see enclosed reconciliation tables).

The expectation at the beginning of the quarter was for organic sales growth of
“more than 10%” and an adjusted operating margin of “around 8.5%”. The higher
than expected sales growth came from stronger than expected sales in most
regions.

For the second quarter of 2016, the Company expects organic sales to increase by
around 10% and an adjusted operating margin of around 8.5%. The expectation for
the full year is now for an organic sales growth of more than 7% and an adjusted
operating margin of more than 9%. Both the second quarter and full year
expectations now include the recently closed joint venture with Nissin Kogyo –
Autoliv-Nissin Brake Systems (ANBS).

Comments from Jan Carlson, Chairman, President & CEO
"Autoliv had a solid first quarter. Sales growth and operating margin both
exceeded our expectations from the beginning of the quarter, operating cash flow
was strong and our adjusted earnings per share grew by 17%. I am pleased with
the quarter.

In Passive Safety we had solid growth across most regions and outperformed the
light vehicle production. This was due to a generally positive vehicle mix
coming from a combination of high Autoliv content on successful platforms and
the effects from launches of new models in the second half of 2015.

We continue to experience solid growth in our business related to the current
recall situation in the airbag market. This relates both to the sales of
replacement inflators which is now higher than previously expected and the
sustainable business we are winning.

It was a quarter with several important events for our Electronics business. In
Active Safety the strong growth continued, particularly in North America and
Europe. The new Mercedes E-Class, generally seen as the vehicle with the most
advanced autonomous driving features in the world, was launched with a full
suite of Autoliv active safety products.

Additionally, we took the important step of finalizing our joint venture with
Nissin Kogyo of Japan. The new joint venture, Autoliv-Nissin Brake Systems,
gives us access to the latest technology in brake systems and brake control and
we look forward to introducing these new products in our portfolio to our
customers around the world.

With quality as our first priority we are executing to deliver on our growth and
margin expectations while integrating our new businesses into Autoliv.”
