Goodyear Forward
Goodyear Forward is a transformation plan designed to deliver significant margin expansion, optimize the company’s portfolio, and reduce leverage to drive
substantial shareholder value creation. Goodyear Forward is expected to deliver $1.5 billion in annual run-rate benefits driven by cost actions and margin expansion, segment operating margin of 10%, gross
proceeds in excess of $2 billion from portfolio optimization, and a net leverage ratio of 2.0x to 2.5x, all by the end of 2025. In 2024, several
actions were taken to drive significant progress on the Goodyear Forward plan. Segment operating income in 2024 reflects Goodyear Forward benefits of $480 million. Definitive agreements were reached to divest two
non-core assets identified during the company’s comprehensive strategic review, and on February 3, 2025, the sale of the
off-the-road tire business to The Yokohama Rubber Company successfully closed. The sale of the Dunlop brand to Sumitomo Rubber Industries is anticipated to close by mid-2025. Conference Call
