(1) The ending balance of foreign currency translation adjustments as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 include cumulative net investment hedge gains of $74 million and $75 million, respectively. During the next twelve months, no gains or losses are expected to be reclassified from AOCI into Adient's consolidated statements of income.

Adient consolidates certain subsidiaries in which the noncontrolling interest party has within their control the right to require Adient to redeem all or a portion of its interest in the subsidiary. These redeemable noncontrolling interests are reported at their estimated redemption value. Any adjustment to the redemption value impacts retained earnings but does not impact net income. Redeemable noncontrolling interests which are redeemable only upon future events, the occurrence of which is not currently probable, are recorded at carrying value. The following table presents changes in the redeemable noncontrolling interests:

Repurchases of Equity Securities

In November 2022, Adient’s board of directors authorized the repurchase of the Company’s ordinary shares up to an aggregate purchase price of $600 million with no expiration date. Under the share repurchase authorization, Adient’s ordinary shares may be purchased either through discretionary purchases on the open market, by block trades or privately negotiated transactions. The number of ordinary shares repurchased, if any, and the timing of repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including share price, trading volume and general market conditions, as well as on working capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors. During fiscal year 2023, Adient repurchased and immediately retired 1,756,777 shares of its ordinary shares at an average purchase price per share of $37.00. The aggregate amount of cash paid to repurchase the shares was $65 million. During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, Adient repurchased and immediately retired 3,003,358 shares of its
ordinary shares at an average purchase price per share of $33.32. The aggregate amount of cash paid to repurchase the shares was $100 million. As of December 31, 2023, the remaining aggregate amount of authorized repurchases was $435 million.
