"We delivered another strong quarter, driven by execution of our Goodyear Forward plan," said Mark Stewart, chief executive officer and president. "Our fourth quarter results mark the highest segment operating income and margin the company has achieved in more than seven years. While we continue to face challenging industry conditions in the first quarter, we are operating with greater focus and discipline on the elements within our control – much as we did throughout 2025 – to navigate the current environment." Financial Results Goodyear's fourth quarter 2025 net sales were $4.9 billion, with tire unit volumes totaling 42.3 million. After adjusting for the impact of the sales of its Off-the-Road (OTR) tire and Chemical businesses of $227 million, organic net sales increased 4%. Fourth quarter 2025 Goodyear net income was $105 million, or $0.36 per share, compared to Goodyear net income one year ago of $73 million, or $0.25 per share. The fourth quarter of 2025 included several significant items, including, on a pre-tax basis, gains on asset sales of $116 million, and an insurance recovery of $56 million, offset by pension settlement charges of $129 million, rationalization charges, asset write-offs, and accelerated depreciation and leases of $50 million and discrete tax items of $6 million. Fourth quarter 2025 adjusted net income was $113 million, compared to adjusted net income of $111 million in the prior year's quarter. Adjusted earnings per share was $0.39, which includes several items, notably an adjustment for an insurance recovery of $56 million, or $0.19 per share, in the fourth quarter, compared to $0.38 in the prior year's quarter. Per share amounts are diluted. Segment Results The company reported total segment operating income of $416 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $382 million from a year ago. After adjusting for the impact of the sales of its Off-the-Road (OTR) tire and Chemical businesses of $30 million, organic segment operating income increased $64 million, or 18%. The increase in segment operating income reflects benefits from Goodyear Forward of $192 million and favorable price/mix versus raw material costs of $197 million, offset by inflation, tariffs, and other costs of $227 million, and the impact of lower volume of $92 million. Goodyear Forward Goodyear Forward delivered $192 million of benefits in the fourth quarter of 2025. Since inception, the program has generated $1.25 billion of cumulative segment operating income benefits, exceeding its original commitment by approximately $150 million. At the end of 2025, the company had reached a $1.5 billion run-rate over the two-year program. Additionally, in 2025, Goodyear generated $2.3 billion of proceeds from divestitures and other asset sales, including the sales of its Chemical and OTR businesses and the Dunlop brand, which were primarily used to reduce debt. This exceeded the Company's asset sale proceeds target by approximately $300 million. Full-Year Results Goodyear's 2025 net sales were $18.3 billion, with tire unit volumes totaling 158.7 million. Goodyear net loss was $1.7 billion, or ($5.99) per share, compared to Goodyear net income of $46 million, or $0.16 per share, a year ago. Full-year 2025 included several significant items, including, on a pre-tax basis, gains on asset sales of $816 million and an insurance recovery of $56 million, offset by a non-cash deferred tax asset valuation allowance of $1.5 billion, a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $674 million, rationalization charges, asset write-offs, and accelerated depreciation and leases of $354 million, pension settlement charges of $201 million, and Goodyear Forward costs of $15 million. Full-year 2025 adjusted net income was $136 million, compared to adjusted net income of $278 million in the prior year. Adjusted earnings per share was $0.47, compared to $0.97 in the prior year. The company reported total segment operating income of $1.1 billion in 2025, compared to $1.3 billion in the prior year. After adjusting for the impact of the sales of its OTR tire and Chemical businesses of $75 million, segment operating income declined $170 million, reflecting lower volumes amid continued headwinds in the commercial industry, as well as tariff-related market dynamics. Segment operating income reflects benefits from Goodyear Forward of $772 million and net price/mix versus raw material costs of $22 million, offset by inflation, tariffs, and other costs of $543 million, lower volume of $285 million, and non-recurrence of insurance recoveries, net of expenses, of $62 million.

Americas' fourth quarter 2025 net sales of $2.9 billion were 0.8% lower than the previous year, driven by a decline in volume, partially offset by price/mix benefits. Tire unit volume decreased 3.9%. Replacement tire unit volume decreased 3.7%, primarily due to reduced sales as a result of high channel inventories of imported products in the U.S. Consumer original equipment tire unit volume decreased 2.6%, driven by lower OEM production. Similar to prior quarters, the Commercial business experienced a sharp contraction in industry demand. Segment operating income of $233 million decreased $29 million from last year. The decrease was driven by the non-recurrence of 2024 net insurance recoveries of $52 million and the impact of the sale of the Chemical business of $7 million. EMEA
EMEA's fourth quarter 2025 net sales of $1.5 billion increased 4.9% from fourth quarter 2024, driven by benefits in price/mix and currency, partly offset by lower tire volume. Tire unit volume decreased 2.3%. Replacement unit volume decreased 8.2%, driven by industry weakness. Original equipment tire unit volume increased 14.3%, reflecting significant consumer market share gains. Fourth quarter segment operating income of $114 million increased $76 million from the previous year. EMEA's results include an insurance recovery of $56 million, which is excluded from total company adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share. ASIA PACIFIC
Asia Pacific's fourth quarter 2025 net sales of $528 million were 12.9% lower than the previous year, driven by the sale of the OTR tire business. Tire unit volume decreased 1.6%, driven by lower consumer OE sales in China. Fourth quarter 2025 segment operating income of $69 million was $13 million lower than the prior year, which was driven by the sale of the OTR tire business. Excluding the impacts related to the sale of the OTR tire business of $29 million, Asia Pacific segment operating income increased 30% and segment operating margin grew 330 basis points.

Forward-Looking Statements Certain information contained in this news release constitutes forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. There are a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control, that affect our operations, performance, business strategy and results and could cause our actual results and experience to differ materially from the assumptions, expectations and objectives expressed in any forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to: our ability to implement successfully our strategic initiatives; actions and initiatives taken by both current and potential competitors; increases in the prices paid for raw materials and energy; inflationary cost pressures; changes in tariffs, trade agreements or trade restrictions; delays or disruptions in our supply chain or the provision of services to us; a prolonged economic downturn or period of economic uncertainty; deteriorating economic conditions or an inability to access capital markets; a labor strike, work stoppage, labor shortage or other similar event; financial difficulties, work stoppages, labor shortages or supply disruptions at our suppliers or customers; the adequacy of our capital expenditures; foreign currency translation and transaction risks; our failure to comply with a material covenant in our debt obligations; potential adverse consequences of litigation involving the company; as well as the effects of more general factors such as changes in general market, economic or political conditions or in legislation, regulation or public policy. Additional factors are discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. In addition, any forward-looking statements represent our estimates only as of today and should not be relied upon as representing our estimates as of any subsequent date. While we may elect to update forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, even if our estimates change. Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements This news release reflects revised prior period financial information to correct an accounting error related to the historic computation of currency remeasurement for our foreign operations in Turkey. We evaluated the errors and determined that the related impacts were not material in any previously issued annual or interim financial statements. See Notes 1 and 16 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2025, filed on August 8, 2025, for revised financial information reflecting the corrections to prior periods. Non-GAAP Financial Measures (unaudited) This news release presents non-GAAP financial measures, including Total Segment Operating Income and Margin, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS), and organic earnings measures, which are important financial measures for the company but are not financial measures defined by U.S. GAAP, and should not be construed as alternatives to corresponding financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Total Segment Operating Income is the sum of the individual strategic business units' (SBUs') Segment Operating Income as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Total Segment Operating Margin is Total Segment Operating Income divided by Net Sales as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes that Total Segment Operating Income and Margin are useful because they represent the aggregate value of income created by the company's SBUs and exclude items not directly related to the SBUs for performance evaluation purposes. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures to Total Segment Operating Income and Margin are Goodyear Net Income (Loss) and Return on Net Sales (which is calculated by dividing Goodyear Net Income (Loss) by Net Sales). Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is Goodyear Net Income (Loss) as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP adjusted for certain significant items. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS) is the company's Adjusted Net Income (Loss) divided by Weighted Average Shares Outstanding-Diluted as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes that Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS) are useful because they represent how management reviews the operating results of the company excluding the impacts of rationalizations, asset write-offs, accelerated depreciation, discrete tax items, impairments, asset sales and certain other significant items. Organic earnings measures, including organic Net Sales growth, organic Segment Operating Income and organic Segment Operating Income growth, are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the direct impacts of the divestitures of our OTR and Chemical businesses from year-over-year comparisons. We believe these measures provide investors with a supplemental understanding of underlying earnings trends by providing comparisons on a constant basis. We completed the sale of our OTR and Chemical businesses in February 2025 and October 2025, respectively. It should be noted that other companies may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP financial measures differently and, as a result, the measures presented herein may not be comparable to such similarly-titled measures reported by other companies. See the following tables for reconciliations of historical Total Segment Operating Income and Margin, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures.
