ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

BUSINESS OF GOODYEAR

The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (the “Company”) is an Ohio corporation organized in 1898. Its principal offices are located at 200 Innovation Way, Akron, Ohio 44316-0001. Its telephone number is (330) 796-2121. The terms “Goodyear,” “Company” and “we,” “us” or “our” wherever used herein refer to the Company together with all of its consolidated U.S. and foreign subsidiary companies, unless the context indicates to the contrary.

We are one of the world’s leading manufacturers of tires, engaging in operations in most regions of the world. In 2024, our net sales were $18,878 million and Goodyear net income was $70 million. We develop, manufacture, distribute and sell tires for most applications. We also manufacture and sell rubber-related chemicals for various applications. We are one of the world’s largest operators of commercial truck service and tire retreading centers. We operate approximately 800 retail outlets where we offer our products for sale to consumer and commercial customers and provide repair and other services. We manufacture our products in 53 manufacturing facilities in 20 countries, including the United States, and we have marketing operations in almost every country around the world. We employ approximately 68,000 full-time and temporary associates worldwide.

AVAILABLE INFORMATION

We make available free of charge on our website, http://www.goodyear.com, our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after we file or furnish such reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Our reports filed with the SEC may be found on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov. The information on our website and the SEC's website is not incorporated by reference in or considered to be a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

DESCRIPTION OF GOODYEAR’S BUSINESS

On November 15, 2023, following a comprehensive evaluation by the Strategic and Operational Review Committee of the Board of Directors, we announced a transformation plan, known as “Goodyear Forward,” that is intended to optimize our portfolio, deliver significant margin expansion and reduce leverage in order to drive sustainable, long-term shareholder value creation.

Goodyear Forward’s goals are to deliver: (1) gross proceeds in excess of $2 billion from portfolio optimization by pursuing strategic alternatives for our chemical business, the Dunlop brand and our off-the-road ("OTR") tire business, (2) cost reduction actions driving an annual, run-rate benefit of approximately $1.3 billion by the end of 2025, (3) top line actions driving an annual, run-rate benefit of approximately $200 million by the end of 2025, (4) segment operating income margin doubling to 10% by the end of 2025, and (5) improved leverage by the end of 2025.

On January 7, 2025, we entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Dunlop Purchase Agreement”) with Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd. (“SRI”) relating to the sale of the Dunlop brand in Europe, North America and Oceania for consumer, commercial and other specialty tires, together with certain associated intellectual property and other intangible assets, for a purchase price of $526 million. SRI will also pay us an up-front transition support fee of $105 million for our support in transitioning the Dunlop brand, related intellectual property and Dunlop customers to SRI. SRI will also acquire our existing Dunlop tire inventory. The Dunlop Purchase Agreement also contemplates entering into a number of ancillary agreements, including (a) a transition license agreement, pursuant to which we will continue to manufacture, sell and distribute Dunlop-branded consumer tires in Europe for an initial period from the closing of the transaction until December 31, 2025, which may be extended to December 31, 2026, and during which we will pay SRI a royalty on such Dunlop sales but will otherwise retain all profits therefrom; (b) a transition offtake agreement, pursuant to which we will sell to SRI certain Dunlop-branded consumer tire products for a period of up to five years, commencing after termination or expiration of the transition license agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein; and (c) we will license back the Dunlop brand from SRI for commercial tires in Europe on a long-term basis, subject to a royalty on sales. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals.

On February 3, 2025, we completed the sale of our OTR tire business to The Yokohama Rubber Company, Limited (“Yokohama”) pursuant to the terms of the Share and Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 22, 2024 (the “OTR Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the OTR Purchase Agreement, Yokohama acquired the Company’s OTR business for a purchase price of $905 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the OTR Purchase Agreement. In conjunction with the sale of the OTR business, we entered into several ancillary agreements, including a product supply agreement, pursuant to which we will supply to Yokohama certain OTR tires for an initial period of up to 5 years, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, including an exit and asset relocation plan to be mutually agreed upon by the parties pursuant to which,

beginning no earlier than the 2nd anniversary of closing of the transaction, the production of those OTR tires will transition to Yokohama’s facilities.

G ENERAL I NFORMATION R EGARDING O UR S EGMENTS

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we operated our business through three operating segments representing our regional tire businesses: Americas; Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); and Asia Pacific.

Our principal business is the development, manufacture, distribution and sale of tires and related products and services worldwide. We manufacture and sell numerous lines of rubber tires for:

automobiles
trucks
buses
aircraft
motorcycles
earthmoving and mining equipment
farm implements
industrial equipment, and
various other applications.

In each case, our tires are offered for sale to vehicle manufacturers for mounting as original equipment (“OE”) and for replacement worldwide. We manufacture and sell tires under the Goodyear, Cooper, Dunlop, Kelly, Mastercraft, Roadmaster, Debica, Sava, Fulda, Mickey Thompson, Avon and Remington brands and various “house” brands, and the private-label brands of certain customers. In certain geographic areas we also:

retread truck, aviation and OTR tires,
manufacture and sell tread rubber and other tire retreading materials,
sell chemical products, and/or
provide automotive and commercial repair services and miscellaneous other products and services.

Our principal products are new tires for most applications. Approximately 85% of our sales in 2024 and 86% in 2023 and 2022 were for tire units. Sales of chemical products to unaffiliated customers were 3% of our consolidated sales in 2024, 2% in 2023 and 3% in 2022 (5%, 4% and 5% of Americas total sales in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively). The percentages of each segment’s sales attributable to tire units during the periods indicated were:

New tires are sold under highly competitive conditions throughout the world. On a worldwide basis, we have two major competitors: Bridgestone (based in Japan) and Michelin (based in France). Other significant competitors include Continental, Hankook, Kumho, Nexen, Pirelli, Sumitomo, Toyo, Yokohama and various regional tire manufacturers.

We compete with other tire manufacturers on the basis of product design, performance, price and terms, reputation, warranty terms, customer service and consumer convenience. Goodyear, Cooper, Dunlop and Mickey Thompson branded tires enjoy a high recognition factor and have a reputation for performance and product design. The Kelly, Mastercraft, Roadmaster, Debica, Sava, Fulda, Avon and Remington brands and various house brand tire lines offered by us, and tires manufactured and sold by us to private brand customers, compete primarily on the basis of value and price.

We do not consider our tire businesses to be seasonal to any significant degree.

GENERAL BUSINESS INFORMATION

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

The principal raw materials used by Goodyear are synthetic and natural rubber. Synthetic rubber accounted for approximately 50% of all rubber consumed by us in 2024. Our plants located in Beaumont and Houston, Texas supply a major portion of our global synthetic rubber requirements. We purchase all of our requirements for natural rubber in the world market.

Other important raw materials and components we use are carbon black, steel cord, fabrics and petrochemical-based commodities. Substantially all of these raw materials and components are purchased from independent suppliers, except for certain chemicals we manufacture. We purchase most raw materials and components in significant quantities from several suppliers, except in those instances where only one or a few qualified sources are available. Raw material costs were lower in 2024 as compared to 2023; however, were higher in the fourth quarter of 2024 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. We anticipate the continued availability of raw materials and components we will require during 2025, subject to spot shortages and unexpected disruptions caused by natural disasters, such as hurricanes, or other events.

Substantial quantities of fuel and other petrochemical-based commodities are used in the production of tires, synthetic rubber and other products. Supplies of such fuels and commodities have been and are expected to continue to be available to us in quantities sufficient to satisfy our anticipated requirements, subject to spot shortages.

Human Capital Management

At December 31, 2024, we employed approximately 68,000 full-time and temporary associates throughout the world, including approximately 38,000 associates covered under collective bargaining agreements. Approximately 5,100 of our associates in the United States are covered by a master collective bargaining agreement between Goodyear and the United Steelworkers ("USW"), which expires in July 2026. Approximately 2,000 of our associates at our Texarkana and Findlay plants in the United States are covered by separate collective bargaining agreements with the USW, which expire in October 2028. In addition, approximately 800 of our associates in the United States are covered by other contracts with the USW and various other unions. Approximately 22,000 of our associates outside of the United States are covered by union contracts that currently have expired or that will expire in 2025, primarily in Germany, Poland, Brazil, Mexico, China, Slovenia, Turkey, Chile, Serbia and India. Unions represent a major portion of our associates in the United States and Europe.

Engaging and enabling our associates to realize their full potential is one of our core strategies. This starts with attracting top talent and is followed by fostering inclusion, promoting engagement, offering opportunities for skill and career development, supporting health and wellness, providing a safe and healthy workplace, making a positive impact in our communities, and expecting our associates to know and comply with our compliance and ethics policies.

Talent Management Our associates are the driving force behind our success. They underpin every aspect of our strategy and help us deliver value to our customers, shareholders and communities. We provide integrated talent management and learning solutions aimed at enabling our associates to reach their full personal and professional potential at Goodyear. We are guided by our talent strategy which focuses on talent attraction, talent development and talent engagement and retention. An example of how we attract talent is through campus recruiting into our intern and job rotational programs utilized by several of our functional teams. We offer a number of tools for talent development including the Goodyear Learning Center, which is our in-house collection of online courses available to all associates. In our manufacturing plants, one of the pillars of our plant optimization efforts is Continuous Skills Development, which focuses on developing problem-solving and decision-making skills.

Engagement and Inclusion An engaged and inclusive workforce is critical to our long-term success. Embracing and valuing differences allows us to attract top talent, improve associate satisfaction and engagement, foster innovation, and meld varying experiences and perspectives to drive enhanced customer service, business creativity and decision-making. Our goal is to create a work environment where people have a real sense of belonging and are able to thrive. Our commitment is reflected in the policies that govern our workforce, such as our Business Conduct Manual and Global Zero Tolerance policy and is evidenced in our recruiting strategies, succession planning, training and Employee Resource Groups (“ERGs”), which are key to our inclusion efforts. Our ERGs provide all associates access to coaching, mentoring and professional development, and include ADAPT (Abled and Disabled Associates Partnering Together), Goodyear Asia India Middle East (AIM), Goodyear Black Network, Goodyear Veterans Association, Goodyear Women’s Network, Goodyear Pride Network, HOLA (Hispanic/Latino) and Next Generation Leaders.

Health and Wellness Our wellness initiatives take a holistic view of associate health, including physical, emotional, financial and social health, to enable our associates to thrive and bring their best selves to work each day. Goodyear strives to be at the forefront of corporate wellness, and that goal is the driver behind our “GoodLife” wellness program, which fosters a culture of

6


Table of Contents

wellness for all Goodyear associates and their families. To meet the needs of our diverse workforce and their dependents, we offer varying robust benefits packages for our full-time and part-time associates globally.

Workforce Safety and Wellness Our vision is to have the safest operations in the world. We have established a goal of eliminating all serious injuries and fatalities in our workplace. To reduce the risk of serious injuries we invest in systems that enable us to receive reliable and structured data to enable decision making. We also work to improve our industrial hygiene to prevent work-related illness from noise and the substances used in the manufacturing process and we focus on ergonomics using a six-step problem-solving process to reduce injuries and maximize workplace performance.

Community Engagement Collaborating with community organizations energizes our associates and helps us build a better future. Our global strategy and efforts are an extension of our business and are aimed at safe mobility, inspiring students to reach their full potential and reducing our environmental impacts. We encourage our associates to participate in our Global Week of Volunteering.

Compliance and Ethics To “Act with Integrity” is a core component of our global strategy. Each associate is responsible for acting with honesty, integrity and respect every day and everywhere we do business. Our Business Conduct Manual guides our Board of Directors, executive team and all associates globally. We require our global salaried associates to complete training annually on our Business Conduct Manual and periodically on subjects such as workplace respect (including discrimination and harassment), financial integrity, privacy and data protection, competition law, anti-corruption and anti-bribery, and being a compliance leader.

Patents and Trademarks

We own approximately 1,600 product, process and equipment patents issued by the United States Patent Office and approximately 4,100 patents issued or granted in other countries around the world. We have approximately 300 applications for United States patents pending and approximately 600 patent applications on file in other countries around the world. While such patents and patent applications as a group are important, we do not consider any patent or patent application to be of such importance that the loss or expiration thereof would materially affect Goodyear or any business segment.

We own, control or use approximately 1,500 different trademarks, including several using the word “Goodyear,” the word “Dunlop” or the word “Cooper.” Approximately 9,100 registrations and 300 pending applications worldwide protect these trademarks. While such trademarks as a group are important, the only trademarks we consider material to our business, or to the business of any of our segments, are those using the word “Goodyear” or the word “Cooper,” and with respect to certain of our international business segments, those using the word “Dunlop.” We believe our trademarks are valid and most are of unlimited duration as long as they are adequately protected and appropriately used.

Compliance with Government Regulations

We are subject to extensive regulation under environmental and occupational safety and health laws and regulations worldwide. These laws and regulations relate to, among other things, air emissions, discharges to surface and underground waters, the generation, handling, storage, transportation and disposal of waste materials and hazardous substances, and workplace safety and health. We have several continuing programs designed to ensure compliance with foreign, federal, state and local environmental and occupational safety and health laws and regulations. We expect capital expenditures for pollution control facilities and occupational safety and health projects to be approximately $50 million and $45 million in 2025 and 2026, respectively.

We also incur ongoing expenses to maintain and operate our pollution control facilities and conduct our other environmental activities, including the control and disposal of hazardous substances. These expenditures are expected to be sufficient to comply with existing environmental laws and regulations and are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our competitive position. In the future, we may incur increased costs and additional charges associated with environmental compliance and cleanup projects necessitated by the identification of new waste sites, the impact of new environmental laws and regulatory standards, or the availability of new technologies. Compliance with foreign, federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations in the future may require a material increase in our capital expenditures and could adversely affect our earnings and competitive position.

In addition, compliance with complex foreign and U.S. laws and regulations that apply to our international operations increases our cost of doing business in international jurisdictions. These numerous and sometimes conflicting laws and regulations include import and export laws, anti-competition laws, anti-corruption laws, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act and other local laws prohibiting corrupt payments to governmental officials, data privacy laws such as the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"), tax laws, and accounting, internal control and disclosure requirements.

Climate Change and Sustainability

We are committed to reaching net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across our value chain by 2050 from a 2019 base year. In addition, we are committed to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 46% by 2030 from a 2019 base year, and absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services, fuel and energy-related activities and upstream transportation by 28% within the same timeframe. Our science-based near-term and net-zero GHG reduction targets were validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) in 2023.

Climate considerations continue to drive change in the transportation sector. Advanced forms of mobility—such as fleets, autonomous, connected, electric and sustainable vehicles—are transforming the tire industry and have the potential to make driving safer and more sustainable. Companies in the transportation sector are setting ambitious climate goals that require the support of the entire supply chain to achieve.

The move to a low-carbon economy creates growth opportunities within the tire industry that we are positioned to leverage through our continued innovation. We have a proven track record of producing tires for electric and autonomous vehicles, developing tires and rubber compounds that contribute to reduced GHG emissions by lowering rolling resistance and reducing tire weight, and providing fleet solution services that promote fuel efficiency. We maintain strong relationships with our supply chain partners which, coupled with our global scale, can be leveraged to either avoid or minimize climate-related supply chain disruptions.

Additionally, we have established a robust process that uses internal and external insights to identify, assess and report climate-related risks and opportunities. Such risks include an increase in severe weather events that could temporarily disrupt our operations, supply chain or the operations of our customers and the cost of compliance associated with increased climate-related regulations globally, including increased disclosure obligations or being subject to carbon taxes or similar mechanisms in the European Union or the emergence of such programs in other countries. Refer to Item 1A. "Risk Factors" for a discussion of these and our other risk factors.

Federal, state, local and foreign governments and regulatory agencies continue to consider various options and measures to control GHG emissions in response to climate change. We strive to comply with all applicable laws and regulations, carefully monitor, track and collect our energy usage and GHG emissions, and set company-wide and facility-specific goals to reduce our operational impacts. As part of our commitment to reduce our operational impact, we continue to focus on reducing energy consumption and emissions in our factories and utilizing renewable energy sources. Goodyear has committed to using 100% renewable electricity in all manufacturing facilities by 2030 and 100% renewable energy in all manufacturing facilities by 2040.

We continue to focus on the resiliency of our supply chain and business by developing sustainable material sources and increasing our use of sustainable materials that deliver product performance while meeting our high standards of quality and safety. Sustainable materials refers to a bio-based (defined as material of biological origin); renewable; or recycled (defined as material that has been reprocessed from recovered or reclaimed material); or one produced using or contributing to other practices designed to promote resource conservation and/or emissions reductions, including ISCC PLUS mass-balance (defined as a certification verifying our capability to track the amount and sustainability characteristics of circular and/or bio-based material in the value chain and attribute it based on verifiable bookkeeping).

In early 2024, we introduced the ElectricDrive 2, an all-season EV tire with 50% sustainable materials by weight, improved rolling resistance and long-lasting tread life to maximize performance in the United States. In September, we unveiled the EQMAX and EQMAX ULTRA, made with up to 55% sustainable materials in EMEA. And, in November 2024, we introduced the Electric Drive Sustainable-Material Tire, a summer EV tire with more than 70% sustainable materials by weight, engineered to provide superior grip and quietness for EV owners, to the Chinese market. Goodyear has a goal to introduce the industry's first 100% sustainable material tire by 2030.

ITEM 1A. R ISK FACTORS.

You should carefully consider the risks described below and other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K when considering an investment decision with respect to our securities. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may also impair our business operations. Any of the events discussed in the risk factors below may occur. If they do, our business, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity could be materially adversely affected. In such an instance, the trading price of our securities could decline, and you might lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Strategic Initiatives and Operations

If we do not successfully implement the Goodyear Forward plan and our other strategic initiatives, our operating results, financial condition and liquidity may be materially adversely affected.

On November 15, 2023, we announced a transformation plan, known as “Goodyear Forward,” that is intended to optimize our portfolio, deliver significant margin expansion and reduce leverage in order to drive sustainable and substantial shareholder value creation. We believe that the Goodyear Forward plan has ambitious, but achievable, goals. However, the successful implementation of the Goodyear Forward plan may face material challenges, including the ability of management and our employees to focus on implementing the Goodyear Forward plan as well as attending to our ongoing business; retaining key management and other employees; the possibility of faulty assumptions underlying the specific initiatives and goals included within the Goodyear Forward plan and the associated costs of implementing the plan; as well as potential unknown or unforeseen challenges, expenses or delays in implementing the Goodyear Forward plan. As a result, we cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully implement the cost reduction or top line actions in the Goodyear Forward plan or to realize or sustain the anticipated run-rate benefits within the time frames set out in the Goodyear Forward plan or at all.

In addition, our ability to successfully market and sell our chemical business is subject to prevailing general and industry-specific economic conditions and certain financial, business and other factors beyond our control. We cannot assure you that we will be able to sell this business within the time frames set out in the Goodyear Forward plan or at all or, even if we were able to take such action, that we could do so at a price and on terms that are acceptable to us.

If we are unable to successfully implement the actions set forth in the Goodyear Forward plan or other strategic initiatives, we may not be able to improve our operating results, including our operating margin, generate additional cash flow, or reduce our debt levels and leverage.

We believe that our manufacturing footprint is less cost-competitive than that of our principal competitors. To address this competitive disadvantage, we are closing several high-cost manufacturing facilities and curtailing production of tires for declining, less profitable segments of the tire market. We are also undertaking significant capital investments in building, expanding and modernizing certain manufacturing facilities around the world to strengthen the competitiveness of our manufacturing footprint and increase production of premium, large-rim diameter consumer tires. In addition, plant closures, construction and modernization may temporarily disrupt our manufacturing operations and lead to temporary increases in our costs. The failure to implement successfully this or our other important strategic initiatives may materially adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and liquidity.

We are pursuing other important strategic initiatives, such as our innovation excellence, sales and marketing excellence and operational excellence initiatives. Our innovation excellence initiatives are designed to create leading technologies, products and services that anticipate the mobility and sustainability needs of consumers and fleets. Our sales and marketing excellence initiatives are intended to capture the value of our brands and grow our market share, helping our customers win in their markets and ensuring we are the preferred choice of consumers. Our operational excellence initiatives are aimed at improving our safety, quality and efficiency and creating an advantaged supply chain that delivers the right tire, to the right place, at the right time, at the right cost. If we fail to execute these initiatives successfully or if the assumptions used in developing the initiatives vary significantly from actual conditions, we may fail to achieve our financial goals.

Our performance is also dependent on our ability to improve the volume and mix of higher margin tires we sell in our targeted market segments. In order to do so, we must be successful in developing, producing, marketing and selling products that consumers desire and that offer higher margins to us. Shifts in consumer demand away from higher margin tires could materially adversely affect our business. We have been capacity constrained from time to time with respect to the production of certain higher margin tires, particularly in the United States. When faced with these constraints, we try to alleviate them by utilizing our global manufacturing footprint to meet the demand for our tires and by adding manufacturing capacity. However, in spite of these initiatives, we may not be able to meet all of the demand for certain of our higher margin tires, which could harm our competitive position and limit our growth.

We cannot assure you that our strategic initiatives will be successful. If not, we may not be able to achieve or sustain future profitability, which would impair our ability to meet our debt and other obligations and would otherwise negatively affect our operating results, financial condition and liquidity.

The consummation of the sale of the Dunlop brand to Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd. is subject to closing conditions, some or all of which may not be satisfied, or completed on a timely basis, if at all. Failure to complete the sale in a timely manner or at all could have adverse effects on us.

On January 7, 2025, Goodyear and SRI entered into the Dunlop Purchase Agreement relating to the sale of the Dunlop brand for consumer, commercial and other specialty tires, together with certain associated intellectual property, other intangible assets and inventory (the “Transaction”).

The Transaction is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals; the absence of any judgments or orders enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Transaction; the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party; the compliance by each party with its covenants in all material respects; and the absence of a material adverse effect with respect to the Dunlop business operated by us.

The Dunlop Purchase Agreement contains customary termination rights, including if the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”) has not occurred on or prior to October 7, 2025 (as it may be extended, the “Outside Date”), subject to certain rights of each party to extend the Outside Date if certain regulatory conditions to Closing have not been satisfied.

Although it is not a condition to Closing, the sale of the Dunlop brand will require a waiver or an amendment of our European revolving credit facility. We cannot assure you that such waiver or amendment, or alternative financing, can be obtained, or if obtained, will be on terms acceptable to us.

If the Closing does not occur, our operating results, financial condition and liquidity may be materially adversely affected. Without realizing any of the benefits of having completed the Transaction, we will be subject to a number of risks, including the following:

the market price of Goodyear common stock could decline to the extent that the current market price reflects a market assumption that the Transaction will be completed;
if the Dunlop Purchase Agreement is terminated and we seek another buyer for the Dunlop brand, our shareholders cannot be certain that we will be able to find a party willing to enter into a transaction on terms equivalent to or more attractive than the terms of the Dunlop Purchase Agreement;
time and resources committed by our management to matters relating to the Transaction could otherwise have been devoted to pursuing other beneficial opportunities for us;
we may experience negative reactions from the financial markets or from our customers, suppliers or employees;
we will be required to pay our costs relating to the Transaction, such as legal, accounting and financial advisory fees, whether or not the Transaction is completed; and
litigation related to any failure to complete the Transaction or related to any enforcement proceeding commenced against us to perform our obligations pursuant to the Dunlop Purchase Agreement.

Similarly, delays in the completion of the Transaction could, among other things, result in additional transaction costs, loss of revenue or other negative effects associated with uncertainty about completion of the Transaction.

The sales of our OTR tire business and the Dunlop brand may disrupt our current and future plans or operations.

The ancillary agreements for the sale of the OTR tire business include a product supply agreement and a transition services agreement, and the ancillary agreements for the sale of the Dunlop brand include a transition license agreement, a transition offtake agreement and a commercial truck tire license from SRI to us. As a result, we will have significant continuing obligations to the respective purchasers of these businesses.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully separate these businesses or otherwise fully realize the expected benefits of these asset sales. Difficulties in separating the businesses may result in us performing differently than expected, in operational challenges or in unabsorbed overhead and other costs, especially during the implementation of the wind-down periods contemplated by the OTR product supply agreement and the Dunlop transition offtake agreement. The separation of the businesses may result in material challenges, including the diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business concerns; retaining key management and other employees; retaining or attracting business and operational relationships, including retaining Goodyear brand consumer tire customers in EMEA; the possibility of faulty assumptions underlying expectations regarding the benefits from the ancillary agreements, the separation process and associated expenses; separating

corporate and administrative infrastructures, including information technology, manufacturing and other systems; coordinating these activities in geographically dispersed locations; as well as potential unknown liabilities or unforeseen expenses relating to the ancillary agreements, the business separations or any delays in separation activities.

We face significant global competition and our market share could decline.

New tires are sold under highly competitive conditions throughout the world. We compete with other tire manufacturers on the basis of product design, performance, price and terms, reputation, warranty terms, customer service and consumer convenience. On a worldwide basis, we have two major competitors, Bridgestone (based in Japan) and Michelin (based in France), that have large shares of the markets of the countries in which they are based and are aggressively seeking to maintain or improve their worldwide market share. Other significant competitors include Continental, Hankook, Kumho, Nexen, Pirelli, Sumitomo, Toyo, Yokohama and various regional tire manufacturers. Our competitors produce significant numbers of tires in low-cost countries, and have announced plans to further increase their production capacity in countries around the globe. Increasingly, our competitors are making decisions on where to produce tires based not only on production cost, but in combination with total delivery cost, supply chain reliability and sustainability considerations. These increases in production capacity may result in even greater competition in the United States and elsewhere.

Our ability to compete successfully will depend, in significant part, on our ability to continue to innovate and manufacture the types of tires demanded by consumers, and to reduce costs by such means as reducing excess and high-cost capacity, leveraging global purchasing, improving productivity, eliminating redundancies and increasing production at low-cost supply sources. If we are unable to compete successfully, our market share may decline, materially adversely affecting our results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, the automotive industry may experience significant changes due to the introduction of new technologies, such as electric and autonomous vehicles, or new services, business models or methods of travel, such as ride sharing. As the automotive industry evolves, we may need to provide a wider range of products and services to remain competitive, including products that we do not currently have the capability to manufacture or services that we do not currently offer. The demand for our products may also decline if automotive production declines and/or total vehicle miles traveled declines, including as a result of increasing fuel costs. If we do not accurately predict, prepare for and respond to market developments, technological innovations and changing customer and consumer needs and preferences, our results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Our capital expenditures may not be adequate to maintain our competitive position and may not be implemented in a timely or cost-effective manner.

Our capital expenditures are limited by our liquidity and capital resources and by the need to pay our other expenses and to maintain adequate cash reserves and borrowing capacity to meet unexpected demands that may arise. We believe that our ratio of capital expenditures to sales is lower than the comparable ratio for our principal competitors.

Productivity improvements and manufacturing cost improvements may be required to offset potential increases in labor and raw material costs, including inflationary increases, and competitive price pressures. In addition, as part of our strategy to reduce high-cost and excess manufacturing capacity and to increase our capacity to produce higher margin tires, we may need to modernize or expand our facilities. We may also need to make additional capital expenditures in order to achieve our global climate ambition and related goals. We are currently undertaking significant construction, expansion and modernization projects globally.

We may not have sufficient resources to implement planned capital expenditures with minimal disruption to our existing manufacturing operations, or within desired time frames and budgets. Any disruption to our operations, delay in implementing capital improvements or unexpected costs may materially adversely affect our business and results of operations.

If we are unable to make sufficient capital expenditures, or to maximize the efficiency of the capital expenditures we do make, we may be unable to achieve productivity improvements, which may harm our competitive position, to manufacture the products necessary to compete successfully in our targeted market segments, or to achieve our global climate ambition and related goals. In addition, plant construction and modernization may temporarily disrupt our manufacturing operations and lead to temporary increases in our costs.

A prolonged economic downturn or economic uncertainty could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Deterioration of global or regional economic conditions, including recession, financial instability, inflation, labor shortages or energy availability and costs (including fuel surcharges), could negatively impact our business and our results of operations. A prolonged economic downturn can adversely affect OE production levels and consumer spending habits on replacement tires,

13


Table of Contents

resulting in lower-than-expected net sales. Inflation, which has risen significantly in recent years, has and may continue to increase our operational costs, including labor, transportation and energy costs, and increases in interest rates in response to concerns about inflation may have the effect of further increasing economic uncertainty or creating recessionary economic conditions. As a result, instability and weakness of the U.S. and global economies, including due to recession, inflation, high unemployment, disruptions to financial markets, geopolitical events and public health crises, and the corresponding negative effects on consumer spending, may materially negatively affect our business and results of operations, including impairment charges relating to goodwill, intangible assets, investments and other long-lived assets.

Raw material, energy and transportation costs may materially adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

Raw material, energy and transportation costs can be volatile. Inflationary cost pressures, among other factors, may cause increases in the prices of natural and synthetic rubber, carbon black and petrochemical-based commodities. Market conditions, including actions by competitors, or contractual obligations may prevent us from passing any such increased costs on to our customers through timely price increases. Additionally, increased demand for consumer products and supply chain disruptions as a result of global events, including disruptions to transportation routes, port congestion and container shortages, has led to inflationary cost pressures on transportation. Higher raw material, energy and transportation costs around the world may offset our efforts to reduce our cost structure. High demand for and/or limited availability of raw materials and other energy sources could result in declining margins and operating results and adversely affect our financial condition. The volatility of raw material costs may cause our margins, operating results and liquidity to fluctuate. In addition, lower raw material costs may put downward pressure on the price of tires, which could ultimately reduce our margins and adversely affect our results of operations. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate sources of raw materials, energy or transportation, its operations could be interrupted. In addition, fluctuations in the price of gasoline for consumers can affect driving and purchasing habits and impact demand for tires.

If we fail to extend or renegotiate significant collective bargaining contracts with our labor unions as they expire from time to time, or if our unionized employees were to engage in a strike or other work stoppage or interruption, our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity could be materially adversely affected.

We are a party to collective bargaining contracts with our labor unions, which represent a significant number of our employees, including our collective bargaining agreements with the USW. Our primary collective bargaining agreement with the USW, which covers approximately 5,100 of our associates in the United States at December 31, 2024, expires in July 2026. Approximately 2,000 of our associates at our Texarkana and Findlay plants in the United States at December 31, 2024 are covered by separate collective bargaining agreements with the USW, which expire in October 2028. In addition, approximately 22,000 of our associates outside of the United States are covered by union contracts that have expired or are expiring in 2025, primarily in Germany, Poland, Brazil, Mexico, China, Slovenia, Turkey, Chile, Serbia and India. Although we believe that our relations with our associates are satisfactory, no assurance can be given that we will be able to successfully extend or renegotiate our collective bargaining agreements as they expire from time to time. If we fail to extend or renegotiate our collective bargaining agreements, if disputes with our unions arise, or if our unionized workers engage in a strike or other work stoppage or interruption, we could experience a significant disruption of, or inefficiencies in, our operations or incur higher labor costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

Our international operations have certain risks that may materially adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and liquidity.

We have manufacturing and distribution facilities throughout the world. Our international operations are subject to certain inherent risks, including:

exposure to local economic conditions;
adverse foreign currency fluctuations;
adverse currency exchange controls;
withholding taxes and restrictions on the withdrawal of foreign investment and earnings;
tax policies and regulations;
labor regulations;
tariffs;
government price and profit margin controls;
expropriations of property;

14


Table of Contents

adverse changes in the diplomatic relations of foreign countries with the United States;
the potential instability of foreign governments;
hostility from local populations and insurrections or armed conflicts;
risks of renegotiation or modification of existing agreements with governmental authorities;
export and import restrictions; and
other changes in laws or government policies.

The likelihood of such occurrences and their potential effect on us vary from country to country and are unpredictable. Certain regions, including Latin America, Asia, Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa, are inherently more economically and politically volatile and, as a result, our business units that operate in these regions could be subject to significant fluctuations in sales and operating income from quarter to quarter. Because a significant percentage of our operating income in recent years has come from these regions, adverse fluctuations in the operating results in these regions could have a significant impact on our results of operations in future periods.

In addition, compliance with complex foreign and U.S. laws and regulations that apply to our international operations increases our cost of doing business in international jurisdictions. These numerous and sometimes conflicting laws and regulations include import and export laws, anti-competition laws, anti-corruption laws, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act and other local laws prohibiting corrupt payments to governmental officials, data privacy laws such as the GDPR, labor laws, tax laws, and accounting, internal control and disclosure requirements. Violations of these laws and regulations could result in civil and criminal fines, penalties and sanctions against us, our officers or our employees, prohibitions on the conduct of our business and on our ability to offer our products and services in one or more countries, and could also materially affect our reputation, business and results of operations. In certain foreign jurisdictions, there is a higher risk of fraud or corruption and greater difficulty in maintaining effective internal controls and compliance programs. Although we have implemented policies and procedures designed to promote compliance with applicable laws and regulations, there can be no assurance that our employees, contractors or agents will not violate our policies or applicable laws and regulations.

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the resulting government sanctions could result in significant macroeconomic consequences, including increased inflationary pressures, market volatility, economic restrictions and business disruptions, which could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We suspended all shipments of tires to Russia during the first quarter of 2022 and discontinued our Russian operations in January 2023. The war between Russia and Ukraine has not had and is not expected to have a direct material impact on our financial results. Nonetheless, the ongoing conflict has aggravated already challenging macroeconomic trends, including global supply chain disruptions, higher costs for certain raw materials and higher energy and transportation costs. The conflict has led to increases in the cost of energy and the potential for energy shortages, especially in Europe. We have taken steps to offset the increased cost, but we cannot predict the degree to or the time period over which energy costs will increase.

In response to Russia’s invasion in Ukraine, a number of countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom and members of the European Union, have implemented economic sanctions on Russia and certain Russian enterprises and individuals. The conflict could result in further sanctions and embargoes, regional instability and potential retaliatory action by the Russian government, including cyber-attacks. While we continue to take actions to ensure the safety of our associates and the continuity of our business operations, the extent of the conflict’s impact on the global economy cannot be predicted, particularly if the conflict were to intensify or expand.

Financial difficulties, work stoppages, supply disruptions or economic conditions affecting our major customers, dealers or suppliers could harm our business.

Automotive vehicle production and global tire industry demand continues to be difficult to predict. Although sales to our OE customers accounted for approximately 18% of our net sales in 2024, demand for our products by OE customers and production levels at our facilities are impacted by automotive vehicle production. Automotive production and sales are highly cyclical and sensitive to general economic conditions and other factors, such as credit availability, interest rates, fuel prices, and consumer preference and confidence. Economic declines that result in a significant reduction in automotive production would have an adverse effect on our sales to OE customers. We may experience future declines in sales volume due to declines in new vehicle production and sales, the performance, discontinuation or sale of certain OE brands, platforms or programs, increased competition, or weakness in the demand for replacement tires, which could result in us incurring under-absorbed fixed costs at our production facilities or slowing the rate at which we are able to recover those costs. At various times, some regions around the world may be more particularly impacted by these factors than other regions.

15


Table of Contents

Automotive production can also be affected by labor relation issues or shortages, financial difficulties or supply disruptions. Our OE customers could experience production disruptions resulting from their own or supplier labor, financial or supply difficulties. Such events may cause an OE customer to reduce or suspend vehicle production. Other customers, such as dealers, retailers or distributors, may experience similar disruptions to their operations. As a result, a customer could halt or significantly reduce purchases of our products, which would harm our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. We cannot predict when customers will decide to increase or decrease inventory levels or whether new inventory levels will approximate historical inventory levels. Uncertainty and other unexpected fluctuations could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Our suppliers could also experience production disruptions due to labor, financial, supply or transportation difficulties, or new environmental laws or stricter enforcement of existing environmental laws. Any such production disruptions may result in the unexpected closure of our suppliers' facilities or increases in the cost of our raw materials, which would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, the bankruptcy, restructuring or consolidation of one or more of our major customers, dealers or suppliers could result in the write-off of accounts receivable, a reduction in purchases of our products or a supply disruption to our facilities, which could negatively affect our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

If we are unable to attract and retain key personnel our business could be materially adversely affected.

Our business substantially depends on the continued service of key members of our management. The loss of the services of a significant number of members of our management could have a material adverse effect on our business. Our future success will also depend on our ability to attract and retain highly skilled personnel, such as engineering, marketing and senior management professionals. Competition for these employees is intense, and we could experience difficulty from time to time in hiring and retaining the personnel necessary to support our business. Our ability to attract and retain employees may also be hampered by downturns in the automotive and tire industries, which could result in reduced payments under our incentive compensation plans, as well as by greater competition due to the increase in use of remote working environments. If we do not succeed in retaining our current employees and attracting new high quality employees, our business could be materially adversely affected.

Increasing competition for highly skilled and talented workers, as well as labor shortages, could adversely affect our business.

A number of factors may adversely affect the labor force available to us or increase labor costs, including high employment levels and government regulations. Although we have not experienced any material labor shortages to date, we have observed an increasingly competitive labor market. The increasing competition for highly skilled and talented employees has resulted, and could in the future result, in higher compensation costs and could result in difficulties in maintaining a capable workforce. If we are unable to hire and retain employees capable of performing at a high-level, or if mitigation measures we may take to respond to a decrease in labor availability, such as overtime and third-party outsourcing, have unintended negative effects, our business could be adversely affected. A sustained labor shortage, lack of skilled labor, increased turnover or labor cost inflation as a result of general macroeconomic factors could lead to increased costs, such as increased overtime to meet demand and increased wage rates to attract and retain employees, which could negatively affect our ability to efficiently operate our manufacturing and distribution facilities and overall business and have other adverse effects on our results of operations and financial condition.

We have substantial fixed costs and, as a result, our operating income fluctuates disproportionately with changes in our net sales.

We operate with significant operating and financial leverage. Significant portions of our manufacturing, selling, administrative and general expenses are fixed costs that neither increase nor decrease proportionately with sales. In addition, a significant portion of our interest expense is fixed. There can be no assurance that we would be able to reduce our fixed costs proportionately in response to a decline in our net sales and therefore our competitiveness could be significantly impacted. As a result, a decline in our net sales could result in a higher percentage decline in our income from operations and net income.

Environmental issues, including climate change, or legal, regulatory or market measures to address environmental issues, may negatively affect our business and operations and cause us to incur significant costs.

Our manufacturing and distribution facilities are subject to numerous federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations designed to protect the environment, including increased government regulations to limit carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions as a result of concern over climate change, and we expect that additional requirements with respect to environmental matters, including reporting requirements, will be imposed on us in the future. In addition, we have contractual

16


Table of Contents

indemnification obligations for environmental remediation costs and liabilities that may arise relating to certain divested operations.

There is also growing concern that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere may have an adverse impact on global temperatures, weather patterns, and the frequency and severity of extreme weather and natural disasters. In the event that issues related to such climate change have a negative effect on our business, we may be subjected to decreased availability or less favorable pricing for certain raw materials, including natural rubber. Natural disasters and extreme weather conditions may also disrupt the productivity of our facilities, our supply chain or the operations of our customers. If the frequency or severity of extreme weather and natural disasters increases over time, we may experience a greater number of losses at certain of our facilities. Such losses could lead to further increases in the deductibles or cost of insurance for those facilities, a reduction of insurance available to us, or the unavailability of insurance on terms that are acceptable to us.

Our manufacturing facilities may become subject to further limitations on the emission of greenhouse gases due to public policy concerns regarding climate change issues or other environmental or health and safety concerns. While the form of any additional regulations cannot be predicted, a “cap-and-trade” system similar to the one adopted in the European Union could be adopted in the United States. Any such “cap-and-trade” system (including the system currently in place in the European Union) or other limitations imposed on the emission of greenhouse gases could require us to increase our capital expenditures, use our cash to acquire emission credits or restructure our manufacturing operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results, financial condition and liquidity.

Material future expenditures may be necessary if compliance standards change, if material unknown conditions that require remediation are discovered, or if required remediation of known conditions becomes more extensive than expected. If we fail to comply with present and future environmental laws and regulations, we could be subject to future liabilities or the suspension of production, which could harm our business or results of operations. Environmental laws could also restrict our ability to expand our facilities or could require us to acquire costly equipment or to incur other significant expenses in connection with our manufacturing processes.

Risks Related to Our Capital Structure

Our long-term ability to meet our obligations, to repay maturing indebtedness or to implement strategic initiatives may be dependent on our ability to access capital markets in the future and to improve our operating results.

The adequacy of our liquidity depends on our ability to achieve an appropriate combination of operating improvements, financing from third parties and access to capital markets. We may need to undertake additional financing actions in the capital markets in order to ensure that our future liquidity requirements are addressed or to implement strategic initiatives. These actions may include the issuance of additional debt or equity, or the factoring of our accounts receivable.

Our access to the capital markets cannot be assured and is dependent on, among other things, the ability and willingness of financial institutions to extend credit on terms that are acceptable to us or our suppliers, or to honor future draws on our existing lines of credit, and the degree of success we have in implementing our strategic initiatives. We have continued our use of supplier financing programs and the factoring of our accounts receivable in order to improve our working capital efficiency and reduce our costs. If these programs become unavailable or less attractive to us or our suppliers, our liquidity could be adversely affected.

Future liquidity requirements, or our inability to access cash deposits or make draws on our lines of credit, also may make it necessary for us to incur additional debt. A substantial portion of our assets is subject to liens securing our indebtedness. As a result, we are limited in our ability to pledge our remaining assets as security for additional secured indebtedness.

Our inability to access the capital markets or incur additional debt in the future could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and operations, and could require us to consider further measures, including deferring planned capital expenditures, reducing discretionary spending, selling additional assets and restructuring existing debt.

We have a substantial amount of debt, which could restrict our growth, place us at a competitive disadvantage or otherwise materially adversely affect our financial health.

We have a substantial amount of debt. As of December 31, 2024, our debt (including finance leases) on a consolidated basis was approximately $7.8 billion. Our substantial amount of debt and other obligations could have important consequences. For example, it could:

make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations;
impair our ability to obtain financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures, research and development, acquisitions or general corporate requirements;

17


Table of Contents

increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions;
limit our ability to use cash flows from operating activities in other areas of our business or to return cash to shareholders because we would need to dedicate a substantial portion of these funds for payments on our indebtedness;
limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; and
place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors.

The agreements governing our debt, including our credit agreements, limit, but do not prohibit, us from incurring additional debt and we may incur a significant amount of additional debt in the future, including additional secured debt. If new debt is added to our current debt levels, our ability to satisfy our debt obligations may become more limited.

Our ability to make scheduled payments on, or to refinance, our debt and other obligations will depend on our financial and operating performance, which, in turn, is subject to our ability to implement our strategic initiatives, prevailing economic conditions and certain financial, business and other factors beyond our control. If our cash flow and capital resources are insufficient to fund our debt service and other obligations, we may be forced to reduce or delay expansion plans and capital expenditures, sell material assets or operations, obtain additional capital or restructure our debt. We cannot assure you that our operating performance, cash flow and capital resources will be sufficient to pay our debt obligations when they become due. We cannot assure you that we would be able to dispose of material assets or operations, obtain additional capital or restructure our debt or other obligations if necessary or, even if we were able to take such actions, that we could do so on terms that are acceptable to us.

Any failure to be in compliance with any material provision or covenant of our debt instruments, or a material reduction in the borrowing base under our revolving credit facility, could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and operations.

The agreements governing our secured credit facilities, senior unsecured notes and our other outstanding indebtedness impose significant operating and financial restrictions on us. These restrictions may affect our ability to operate our business or implement strategic initiatives, such as the Goodyear Forward plan, and may limit our ability to take advantage of potential business opportunities as they arise. These restrictions limit our ability to, among other things:

incur additional debt or issue redeemable preferred stock;
pay dividends, repurchase shares or make certain other restricted payments or investments;
incur liens;
sell assets;
incur restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or to make other payments to us;
enter into affiliate transactions;
engage in sale/leaseback transactions; and
engage in certain mergers or consolidations or transfers of substantially all of our assets.

Availability under our first lien revolving credit facility is subject to a borrowing base, which is based on eligible accounts receivable and inventory, the value of our principal trademarks, the value of eligible machinery and equipment, and certain cash in an amount not to exceed $275 million. To the extent that our eligible accounts receivable and inventory and other components of the borrowing base decline in value, our borrowing base will decrease and the availability under that facility may decrease below its stated amount. In addition, if at any time the amount of outstanding borrowings and letters of credit under that facility exceeds the borrowing base, we are required to prepay borrowings and/or cash collateralize letters of credit sufficient to eliminate the excess.

Our ability to comply with these covenants or to maintain our borrowing base may be affected by events beyond our control, including deteriorating economic conditions, and these events could require us to seek waivers or amendments of covenants or alternative sources of financing or to reduce expenditures. We cannot assure you that such waivers, amendments or alternative financing could be obtained, or if obtained, would be on terms acceptable to us.

A breach of any of the covenants or restrictions contained in any of our existing or future financing agreements, including the financial covenants in our secured credit facilities, could result in an event of default under those agreements. Such a default could allow the lenders under our financing agreements, if the agreements so provide, to discontinue lending, to accelerate the related debt as well as any other debt to which a cross-acceleration or cross-default provision applies, and/or to declare all borrowings outstanding thereunder to be due and payable. In addition, the lenders could terminate any commitments they have to provide us with further funds. If any of these events occur, we cannot assure you that we will have sufficient funds available

18


Table of Contents

to pay in full the total amount of obligations that become due as a result of any such acceleration, or that we will be able to find additional or alternative financing to refinance any such accelerated obligations. Even if we obtain additional or alternative financing, we cannot assure you that it would be on terms that would be acceptable to us.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to remain in compliance with the covenants to which we are subject in the future and, if we fail to do so, that we will be able to obtain waivers from our lenders or amend the covenants.

Our variable rate indebtedness subjects us to interest rate risk, which could cause our debt service obligations to increase significantly.

Certain of our borrowings are at variable rates of interest and expose us to interest rate risk. If interest rates increase, our debt service obligations on the variable rate indebtedness would increase even though the amount borrowed remained the same, which would require us to use more of our available cash to service our indebtedness. There can also be no assurance that we will be able to enter into swap agreements or other hedging arrangements in the future if we desire to do so, or that any existing or future hedging arrangements will offset increases in interest rates. As of December 31, 2024, we had approximately $1.9 billion of variable rate debt outstanding.

Risks Related to Information Technology and Intellectual Property

We may be adversely affected by any disruption in, or failure of, our information technology systems.

We rely upon the capacity, reliability and security of our information technology ("IT") systems across all of our major business functions, including our research and development, manufacturing, retail, financial and administrative functions. We also face the challenge of supporting our older systems and implementing upgrades when necessary. Our security measures are focused on the prevention, detection and remediation of damage from computer viruses, unauthorized access, cyber-attack, natural disasters and other similar disruptions. We may incur significant costs in order to implement the security measures that we feel are necessary to protect our IT systems. However, our IT systems may remain vulnerable to damage despite our implementation of security measures that we deem to be appropriate. In addition, we are also dependent on third parties to provide important IT services relating to, among other things, human resources, electronic communications and certain finance functions.

We collect and store sensitive data, including intellectual property, proprietary business information and the proprietary business information of our customers and suppliers, as well as personally identifiable information of our customers and associates, in data centers and on IT networks.

Additionally, we are subject to privacy, data protection, and information security laws and regulations (“Data Protection Laws”) in the United States and in jurisdictions around the globe that restrict the use, disclosure, transfer and processing of personal data. For example, we are subject to the GDPR, the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), and the Brazilian Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados. Costs to comply with these Data Protection Laws are significant and the failure to comply with these laws could result in material legal exposure and business impact. The GDPR, for example, imposes onerous accountability obligations on companies, with penalties for non-compliance of up to the greater of €20 million or four percent of annual global revenue. The GDPR, and other Data Protection Laws, also grant corrective powers to supervisory authorities, including the ability to impose a limit on processing personal data or to order companies to cease operations.

The Data Protection Laws are part of an evolving global data protection landscape in which the number, complexity, requirements and consequences of non-compliance with these laws are increasing. This landscape includes legislative proposals recently adopted or currently pending in the United States, at both the federal and state levels, as well as in other jurisdictions, implementing new or additional requirements for data protection that could further increase compliance costs and the cost and complexity of delivering our products and services, and could significantly affect our business.

Any system failure, accident or security breach involving our or our third party's IT systems could result in disruptions to our operations. A breach in the security of our IT systems could include the theft of our intellectual property or trade secrets, negatively impact our manufacturing or retail operations, or result in the compromise of personal information of our employees, customers or suppliers. While we have, from time to time, experienced system failures, accidents and security and privacy breaches involving our IT systems, these incidents have not had a material impact on our operations, and we are not aware of any resulting theft, loss or disclosure of, or damage to, material data or confidential information. To the extent that any system failure, accident or security or privacy breach results in material disruptions to our operations or the theft, loss or disclosure of, or damage to, material data or confidential information, our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Table of Contents

We may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights adequately.

Our success depends in part upon our ability to use and protect our proprietary technology and other intellectual property, which generally covers various aspects of the design and manufacture of our products and processes. We own and use tradenames and trademarks worldwide. We rely upon a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality policies, nondisclosure and other contractual arrangements and patent, copyright and trademark laws to protect our intellectual property rights. The steps we take in this regard may not be adequate to protect our intellectual property or to prevent or deter challenges or infringement or other violations of our intellectual property, and we may not be able to detect unauthorized use or take appropriate and timely steps to enforce our intellectual property rights.

In addition, the laws of some countries may not protect and enforce our intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the U.S. Further, while we believe we have rights to use all of the intellectual property we use, if we are found to infringe on the rights of others, we could be adversely impacted.

Damage to our brand and reputation could have an adverse effect on our business.

Our well-known and trusted brand names are a key competitive advantage. We believe that our future success depends, in part, on preserving, enhancing, and leveraging the value of our brands and executing our brand strategies, which are designed to drive end-user demand for our products. A decline in the reputation of one or more of our brands as a result of deficiencies or defects in the design or manufacture of our products, or from legal proceedings, product recalls or warranty claims resulting from such deficiencies or defects, may harm our reputation, reduce demand for our products and adversely affect our business.

Risks Related to Litigation, Laws and Regulations

We could be negatively impacted by changes in tariffs, trade agreements or other trade restrictions on imported tires, raw materials and other goods or equipment.

The imposition of new tariffs, changes in existing tariff rates, changes in or the repeal of trade agreements or other trade restrictions, such as those the United States is considering with respect to Canada and Mexico, may reduce our flexibility to utilize our global manufacturing footprint to meet demand for our tires around the world. In addition, the imposition of tariffs in the United States may result in the tires subject to such tariffs being diverted to other regions of the world, such as Europe, Latin America or Asia, or in retaliatory tariffs or other actions by affected countries. Broad-based tariffs and other trade restrictions could also increase costs for our suppliers who may increase prices to us. Finally, tariffs and other trade restrictions may weaken the economies of key markets for us, such as China, resulting in lower economic growth rates and weakened demand for our products and services. These factors, individually or together, could materially adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

We may incur significant costs in connection with our contingent liabilities and tax matters.

We have significant reserves for contingent liabilities and tax matters. The major categories of our contingent liabilities include workers' compensation and other employment-related claims, product liability and other tort claims, including asbestos claims, and environmental matters. Our recorded liabilities and estimates of reasonably possible losses for our contingent liabilities are based on our assessment of potential liability using the information available to us at the time and, where applicable, any past experience and recent and current trends with respect to similar matters. Our contingent liabilities are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable judicial or administrative decisions could occur that we did not anticipate. Such an unfavorable decision could include monetary damages, fines or other penalties or an injunction prohibiting us from taking certain actions or selling certain products. If such an unfavorable decision were to occur, it could result in a material adverse impact on our financial position and results of operations in the period in which the decision occurs, or in future periods.

The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations, including with respect to transfer pricing. While we apply consistent transfer pricing policies and practices globally, support transfer prices through economic studies, seek advance pricing agreements and joint audits to the extent possible and believe our transfer prices to be appropriate, such transfer prices, and related interpretations of tax laws, are occasionally challenged by various taxing authorities globally. We have received various tax assessments challenging our interpretations of applicable tax laws in various jurisdictions. Although we believe we have complied with applicable tax laws, have strong positions and defenses and have historically been successful in defending such claims, our results of operations could be materially adversely affected in the case we are unsuccessful in the defense of existing or future claims.

If we wish to appeal any future adverse judgment in any of these proceedings, we may be required to post an appeal bond with the relevant court. If we were subject to a significant adverse judgment or experienced an interruption or reduction in the availability of bonding capacity, we may be required to provide letters of credit or post cash collateral, which may have a material adverse effect on our liquidity.

20


Table of Contents

We have significant deferred tax assets. We must generate sufficient earnings of the appropriate character in order to utilize our deferred tax assets. If our earnings remain flat or decline over an extended period of time, we may not be able to utilize our deferred tax assets and we may need to record a valuation allowance against them that could materially adversely affect our results of operations in the period in which the valuation allowance is recorded.

For further information regarding our contingent liabilities and tax matters, refer to Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 19, Commitments and Contingent Liabilities, and No. 6, Income Taxes. For further information regarding our accounting policies with respect to certain of our contingent liabilities and uncertain income tax positions, refer to “Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Critical Accounting Policies.”

We are subject to extensive government regulations that may materially adversely affect our operating results.

We are subject to regulation by the Department of Transportation through NHTSA, which has established various standards and regulations applicable to tires sold in the United States and tires sold in a foreign country that are identical or substantially similar to tires sold in the United States. NHTSA has the authority to order the recall of automotive products, including tires, having safety-related defects or that do not comply with a motor vehicle safety standard, and, in some cases, to assess penalties.

The TREAD Act imposes numerous requirements with respect to the early warning reporting of warranty claims, property damage claims, and bodily injury and fatality claims and also requires tire manufacturers, among other things, to comply with revised and more rigorous tire testing standards. Compliance with the TREAD Act regulations has increased the cost of producing and distributing tires in the United States. We have been subject to recalls in the past and it is possible that a recall of our tires, including under the TREAD Act or in other countries under similar regulations, could occur in the future. A substantial recall or related penalties could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, operating results and financial condition.

In addition, pursuant to the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, NHTSA may establish a national tire fuel efficiency consumer information program. If a related rule-making process is completed, certain tires sold in the United States would be required to be rated for rolling resistance, traction and tread wear. While the federal law preempts state tire fuel efficiency laws adopted after January 1, 2006, we may become subject to additional tire fuel efficiency legislation, either in the United States or other countries.

Our European operations are subject to regulation by the European Union. Two regulations, the Tire Safety Regulation and the Tire Labeling Regulation, applicable to tires sold in the European Union have been adopted. The Tire Safety Regulation sets performance standards that tires for cars and light and commercial trucks need to meet for rolling resistance, wet grip braking (passenger car tires only) and noise in order to be sold in the European Union. The Tire Labeling Regulation applies to all passenger car, light truck and commercial truck tires and requires that consumers be informed about the tire's fuel efficiency, wet grip and noise characteristics. Other countries, such as Brazil, have also adopted tire labeling regulations, and additional countries may also introduce similar regulations in the future.

Tires produced or sold in Europe also have to comply with various other standards, including environmental laws such as REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemical Substances), which regulates the use of chemicals in the European Union. For example, REACH prohibits the use of highly aromatic oils in tires, which were used as compounding components to improve certain performance characteristics.

These U.S. and European regulations, rules adopted to implement these regulations, or other similar regulations that may be adopted in the United States, Europe or elsewhere in the future may require us to alter or increase our capital spending and research and development plans or cease the production of certain tires, which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.

Laws and regulations governing environmental and occupational safety and health are complicated, change frequently and have tended to become stricter over time. As a manufacturing company, we are subject to these laws and regulations both inside and outside the United States. We may not be in complete compliance with such laws and regulations at all times. Our costs or liabilities relating to them may be more than the amount we have reserved, and that difference may be material.

Compliance with the laws and regulations described above or any of the myriad of applicable foreign, federal, state and local laws and regulations currently in effect or that may be adopted in the future could materially adversely affect our competitive position, operating results, financial condition and liquidity.

General Risk Factors

We have foreign currency translation and transaction risks that may materially adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and liquidity.

The financial position and results of operations of many of our international subsidiaries are initially recorded in various foreign currencies and then translated into U.S. dollars at the applicable exchange rate for inclusion in our financial statements. The strengthening of the U.S. dollar against these foreign currencies ordinarily has a negative impact on our reported sales and operating margin (and conversely, the weakening of the U.S. dollar against these foreign currencies has a positive impact). For the year ended December 31, 2024, foreign currency translation unfavorably affected sales by $192 million and unfavorably affected segment operating income by $16 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The volatility of currency exchange rates may materially adversely affect our operating results. For the year ended December 31, 2024, net foreign currency exchange losses were $9 million.

We may be impacted by economic and supply disruptions associated with events beyond our control, such as war, including the current conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East, acts of terror, political unrest, public health concerns, labor disputes or natural disasters.

We manage businesses and facilities worldwide. Our facilities and operations, and the facilities and operations of our suppliers and customers, could be disrupted by events beyond our control, such as war, acts of terror, political unrest, public health concerns, labor disputes, or severe weather conditions or natural disasters. In addition, our operations could be adversely affected as a result of other disruptions at our facilities due to fire, electrical blackouts, power losses, telecommunications failures or other similar effects. Any such disruption could cause delays in the production and distribution of our products and the loss of sales and customers. We may not be insured against all such potential losses and, if insured, the insurance proceeds that we receive may not adequately compensate us for all of our losses. Such losses could lead to further increases in the deductibles or cost of insurance for those facilities, a reduction of insurance available to us, or the unavailability of insurance on terms that are acceptable to us.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLV ED STAFF COMMENTS.

None.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY.

Management is responsible for identifying, monitoring and mitigating the material risks facing the Company, including cybersecurity risks. The Board of Directors oversees management’s processes related to those risks. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the risks associated with information technology and cybersecurity threats, and reports on its activities to the full Board following each committee meeting.

The Audit Committee exercises its risk oversight function by carefully evaluating information and cybersecurity reports they receive from management; assessing the priorities and roadmap of the cybersecurity program; and making inquiries of management with respect to areas of particular interest to the Board. Senior leadership, including our chief digital officer (“CDO”) and our chief information security officer, periodically briefs the Audit Committee on our cybersecurity and information security programs and reviews relevant cybersecurity incidents.

Our global information technology organization, led by our CDO, is responsible for our overall information security strategy, policies, operations and threat detection and response. Our current CDO has more than two decades of experience in the automotive industry. The global information technology organization manages and maintains the cybersecurity program with the goal of preventing, detecting and remediating incidents, and works to increase our system resilience to minimize the business impact should an incident occur. Our cybersecurity program is informed by multiple, overlapping cybersecurity frameworks. These include the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cyber Security Framework (NIST-CSF); Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC); Control Objectives for Information and Related Technology (COBIT); International Organization for Standardization (ISO, specifically 27001); and Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange (TISAX). Our cybersecurity program has achieved TISAX certification, or “labeling” for its demonstrated ability to identify, protect, detect, respond and recover from cyber risks. The “labeling” process requires independent, third-party auditors to test and confirm the controls we have implemented.

The program includes escalation and notification of potentially significant incidents to the Cybersecurity Disclosure Committee and the Audit Committee of the Board, as appropriate. Our Cybersecurity Disclosure Committee is comprised of senior leadership across multiple functional areas and is responsible for reviewing and evaluating potentially significant cybersecurity incidents and for determining whether any notification or disclosure is required under applicable laws, including the federal securities laws. In 2024, We have developed an AI Governance Council to address the cybersecurity, data privacy and data

22


Table of Contents

management of emerging technologies. The Council is a multidisciplinary group with representatives from the human resources, information technology, law, compliance and ethics, privacy, and research and development functions.

Third-party specialists are also incorporated into our approach to cybersecurity. We engage third-party services to conduct evaluations of our security controls, whether through penetration testing, independent audits, cybersecurity maturity assessments or consulting on best practices to address current and new challenges. These evaluations include testing both the design and operational effectiveness of security controls.

We recognize a cybersecurity incident experienced by a supplier or joint venture partner could materially impact us. We assess third-party cybersecurity controls as part of our third-party IT risk due diligence and engage in cybersecurity consultant-led solution design reviews when integrating new tools or third parties . We contractually require third parties to report cybersecurity incidents to us so we can assess the impact of the incident and any necessary regulatory reporting obligations that may be required.

Notwithstanding our risk management efforts related to cybersecurity, we may not be successful in preventing or mitigating a cybersecurity incident that could have a material or other adverse effect on us. See Item 1A. “Risk Factors” for a discussion of our information technology and cybersecurity risks.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

We manufacture our products in 53 manufacturing facilities located around the world, including 18 plants in the United States.

AMERICAS MANUFACTURING FACILITIES. Americas owns or leases and operates 28 manufacturing facilities in 7 countries, including:

16 tire plants,
4 chemical plants,
3 tire manufacturing equipment plants,
2 tire retread plants,
2 aviation retread plants, and
1 mix plant.

EUROPE, MIDDLE EAST AND AFRICA MANUFACTURING FACILITIES. EMEA owns or leases and operates 17 manufacturing facilities in 9 countries, including:

15 tire plants,
1 tire retread plant, and
1 aviation retread plant.

ASIA PACIFIC MANUFACTURING FACILITIES. Asia Pacific owns and operates 8 manufacturing facilities in 4 countries, including 7 tire plants and 1 aviation retread plant.

PLANT UTILIZATION. Our worldwide tire capacity utilization rate was approximately 83% during 2024 compared to approximately 81% in 2023 and 89% in 2022. Our utilization rate can vary significantly between product lines, depending on the complexity of the tires, and between consumer and commercial tires, and can also vary between business segments. The reported capacity utilization is an overall average for the Company. In addition to the impact of a storm on production at our tire manufacturing facility in Tupelo, Mississippi ("Tupelo") in 2023, we reduced utilization in 2023 and 2024 to address softening industry demand and prevent the buildup of excess inventory.

OTHER FACILITIES. We also own and operate three research and development facilities and technical centers, two development centers, one innovation lab, and seven tire proving grounds. We lease our Corporate and Americas headquarters and our research and development facility and technical center in Akron, Ohio. We operate approximately 800 retail outlets for the sale of our tires to consumer and commercial customers, approximately 35 tire retreading facilities and approximately 350 warehouse distribution facilities. Substantially all of these facilities are leased. We do not consider any one of these leased properties to be material to our operations. For additional information regarding leased properties, refer to Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 13, Property, Plant and Equipment, and No. 14, Leases. Certain of our manufacturing facilities are mortgaged as collateral for our secured credit facilities. Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 15, Financing Arrangements and Derivative Financial Instruments.

Asbestos Litigation

We are currently one of numerous defendants in legal proceedings in certain state and federal courts involving approximately 35,400 claimants at December 31, 2024 relating to their alleged exposure to materials containing asbestos in products allegedly manufactured by us or asbestos materials present at our facilities. We manufactured, among other things, rubber coated asbestos sheet gasket materials from 1914 through 1973 and aircraft brake assemblies containing asbestos materials prior to 1987. Some of the claimants are independent contractors or their employees who allege exposure to asbestos while working at certain of our facilities. It is expected that in a substantial portion of these cases there will be no evidence of exposure to a Goodyear manufactured product containing asbestos or asbestos in our facilities. The amount expended by us and our insurers on defense and claim resolution was $14 million during 2024. The plaintiffs in the pending cases allege that they were exposed to asbestos and, as a result of such exposure, suffer from various respiratory diseases, including in some cases mesothelioma and lung cancer. The plaintiffs are seeking unspecified actual and punitive damages and other relief. For additional information on asbestos litigation, refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 19, Commitments and Contingent Liabilities.

European Commission Antitrust Investigation

On January 30, 2024, the European Commission carried out unannounced inspections at the premises of companies active in the tire industry in several Member States in the European Union in connection with an investigation into potential violations of European Union antitrust rules with respect to new replacement tires for passenger cars, vans, trucks and busses sold in the European Economic Area. We were one of the companies that was inspected. We are cooperating with the European Commission’s investigation.

In addition, a number of civil lawsuits have been subsequently filed in the United States and elsewhere against companies active in the tire industry, including us, alleging violations of antitrust laws with respect to new replacement tires for passenger cars, vans, trucks and busses sold in the relevant jurisdictions, and similar additional lawsuits could be brought against us in the future. The U.S. lawsuits have been transferred to a multidistrict litigation in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. We intend to defend these lawsuits, the ultimate outcome of which cannot be predicted at this time.

Other Matters

In addition to the legal proceedings described above, various other legal actions, indirect tax assessments, claims and governmental investigations and proceedings covering a wide range of matters are pending against us, including claims and proceedings relating to several waste disposal sites that have been identified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and similar agencies of various states for remedial investigation and cleanup, which sites were allegedly used by us in the past for the disposal of industrial waste materials. Based on available information, we do not consider any such action, assessment, claim, investigation or proceeding to be material, within the meaning of that term as used in Item 103 of Regulation S-K and the instructions thereto. For additional information regarding our legal proceedings, refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 19, Commitments and Contingent Liabilities.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

All per share amounts are diluted and refer to Goodyear net income.

OVERVIEW

The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of tires, with one of the most recognizable brand names in the world and operations in most regions of the world. We have a broad global footprint with 53 manufacturing facilities in 20 countries, including the United States. We operate our business through three operating segments representing our regional tire businesses: Americas; EMEA; and Asia Pacific.

This management's discussion and analysis provides comparisons of material changes in the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. For a comparison of the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, refer to Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Goodyear Forward

On November 15, 2023, we announced a transformation plan, Goodyear Forward, that is intended to optimize our portfolio of products, deliver segment operating margin expansion and reduce our leverage in order to drive sustainable, long-term shareholder value creation. Optimization of our portfolio consisted of a strategic review of three major asset groups: our chemical operations which produces synthetic rubber and other chemical products in our Americas segment, the Dunlop brand for which we own rights in certain markets throughout the world, but is primarily used in our EMEA segment, and our global OTR tire business. Our plans for margin expansion include brand optimization and tiering to capitalize on premium tire pricing and volume and a reduction of our overall exposure related to lower-tiered products either through margin expansion or product line rationalization, resulting in an expected annual run-rate benefit of approximately $200 million by the end of 2025. Our plans for margin expansion also include a reduction of our cost structure by approximately $1.3 billion by the end of 2025, including actions related to our manufacturing footprint, plant optimization, further improvement of our purchasing leverage, reduction of Selling, Administrative and General expenses (“SAG”) and improvements in our supply chain planning and logistics. We anticipate the accumulated benefit of these actions will improve our segment operating margin to approximately 10% by the end of 2025. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Goodyear Forward plan provided $480 million in benefits to segment operating income.

On January 7, 2025, we entered into the Dunlop Purchase Agreement with SRI relating to the sale of the Dunlop brand in Europe, North America and Oceania for consumer, commercial and other specialty tires, together with certain associated intellectual property and other intangible assets, for a purchase price of $526 million. SRI will also pay us an up-front transition support fee of $105 million for our support in transitioning the Dunlop brand, related intellectual property and Dunlop customers to SRI. SRI will also acquire our existing Dunlop tire inventory. The Dunlop Purchase Agreement also contemplates entering into a number of ancillary agreements, including (a) a transition license agreement, pursuant to which we will continue to manufacture, sell and distribute Dunlop-branded consumer tires in Europe for an initial period from the closing of the transaction until December 31, 2025, which may be extended to December 31, 2026, and during which we will pay SRI a royalty on such Dunlop sales but will otherwise retain all profits therefrom; (b) a transition offtake agreement, pursuant to which we will sell to SRI certain Dunlop-branded consumer tire products for a period of up to five years, commencing after termination or expiration of the transition license agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein; and (c) we will license back the Dunlop brand from SRI for commercial tires in Europe on a long-term basis, subject to a royalty on sales. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals.

On February 3, 2025, we completed the sale of our OTR tire business to Yokohama pursuant to the terms of the OTR Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the OTR Purchase Agreement, Yokohama acquired the Company’s OTR business for a purchase price of $905 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the OTR Purchase Agreement. In conjunction with the sale of the OTR business, we entered into several ancillary agreements, including a product supply agreement, pursuant to which we will supply to Yokohama certain OTR tires for an initial period of up to 5 years, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, including an exit and asset relocation plan to be mutually agreed upon by the parties pursuant to which, beginning no earlier than the 2nd anniversary of closing of the transaction, the production of those OTR tires will transition to Yokohama’s facilities.

Results of Operations

Our results for 2024 include a 3.9% decrease in tire unit shipments compared to 2023 due to lower global replacement tire volume, partially offset by growth in OE. In 2024, we experienced approximately $220 million of inflationary cost pressures.

Net sales were $18,878 million in 2024, compared to $20,066 million in 2023. Net sales decreased in 2024 due to lower tire volume in Americas and EMEA, global declines in price and product mix and the negative impact of changes in foreign

27


Table of Contents

exchange rates globally, driven by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar. These decreases were partially offset by the negative impact on sales in 2023 caused by a severe storm in the U.S. that significantly damaged our tire manufacturing facility and adjacent warehouse in Tupelo, Mississippi (the "Tupelo storm") and an increase in sales in other tire-related businesses, primarily due to Fleet Solutions in EMEA and higher third-party chemical sales in Americas.

Goodyear net income in 2024 was $70 million, or $0.24 per share, compared to a net loss of $689 million, or $2.42 per share, in 2023. The change in Goodyear net income (loss) was primarily due to lower rationalization charges, higher segment operating income, lower impairment charges and lower other expense. These increases were partially offset by higher U.S. and Foreign Tax Expense.

Our total segment operating income for 2024 was $1,318 million, compared to $968 million in 2023. The $350 million increase was primarily due to benefits from the Goodyear Forward plan of $480 million, lower raw material costs of $289 million, a benefit of $92 million from insurance proceeds for business interruptions and property damage resulting from storm damage events in prior years, $55 million related to the 2023 negative impact of the Tupelo storm, a benefit from insurance recoveries of $50 million related to a fire in the third quarter of 2023 that significantly damaged and caused a temporary shutdown of our tire manufacturing facility in Debica, Poland ("Debica"), partially offset by the continued impact of the fire on Debica fixed costs incurred during ramp-up of $20 million, lower transportation costs of $35 million, a favorable tax item in Brazil of $8 million and a decrease in SAG of $28 million. These decreases were partially offset by increased conversion costs of $318 million, driven by inflation, declines in price and product mix of $203 million, primarily in Americas and EMEA and lower tire volume of $185 million, primarily in Americas and EMEA. Refer to "Results of Operations — Segment Information" for additional information.

Liquidity

At December 31, 2024, we had $810 million of Cash and Cash Equivalents as well as $3,555 million of unused availability under our various credit agreements, compared to $902 million and $4,247 million, respectively, at December 31, 2023. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $92 million was primarily due to capital expenditures of $1,188 million, partially offset by cash provided by operating activities of $698 million, net borrowings of $264 million, cash proceeds from asset sales of $115 million and insurance recoveries for damaged property, plant and equipment of $62 million. Cash provided by operating activities reflects the net income for the period of $60 million, which includes non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization of $1,049 million, a non-cash impairment charge of $125 million, non-cash rationalization charges of $86 million, a non-cash gain on asset sales of $93 million, primarily related to the sale of a distribution center in Germany, and a non-cash gain on insurance recoveries of $75 million. Operating activities also include rationalization payments of $198 million, cash used for working capital of $82 million and pension contributions and direct payments of $69 million. Net cash provided by financing activities was $225 million, primarily due to net borrowings of $264 million. Refer to "Liquidity and Capital Resources" for additional information.

Outlook

In the first quarter of 2025, we expect our unit volume will decline, driven by relatively high third-party channel inventories related to pre-buy of low-end imported consumer replacement products in the U.S. and lower consumer and commercial OE production globally. We expect our global tire unit volume in the first quarter of 2025 to be lower compared to the first quarter of 2024 by approximately 2% to 3%. We also expect unabsorbed overhead to be approximately $25 million higher in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024 due to lower production in the fourth quarter of 2024.

As we continue to make progress on our Goodyear Forward transformation plan, we expect first quarter benefits from the program of approximately $200 million and full year benefits of approximately $750 million in segment operating income in 2025. The expected impact of the sale of the OTR tire business on our segment operating income, inclusive of stranded costs, is approximately $20 million and $80 million for the first quarter and full year of 2025, respectively.

We expect approximately $175 million of raw material headwinds in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024. These headwinds are expected to be partially offset by approximately $65 million of favorable price and product mix driven by previously implemented pricing actions and customer contracts indexed to changes in raw materials. Natural and synthetic rubber prices and other commodity prices historically have been volatile, and our raw material costs could change based on future cost fluctuations and changes in foreign exchange rates. We continue to focus on price and product mix, to substitute lower cost materials where possible, to work to identify additional substitution opportunities, to reduce the amount of material required in each tire, and to pursue alternative raw materials to minimize the impact of higher raw material costs.

We expect non-raw material inflation and other costs, net of other expected cost improvements, to be approximately $75 million higher in the first quarter of 2025 when compared with the first quarter of 2024. We continue to focus on actions to offset costs other than raw materials through cost savings initiatives, including initiatives related to the Goodyear Forward plan, rationalization actions and improvements in price and product mix.

For the full year of 2025, we expect working capital to be a $100 million to $150 million source of operating cash flows. We anticipate our capital expenditures to be approximately $950 million. We anticipate our cash flows will include rationalization payments of approximately $400 million, as we continue to implement elements of our Goodyear Forward plan to improve our cost structure.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — CONSOLIDATED

Goodyear net income in 2024 was $70 million, or $0.24 per share, compared to a net loss of $689 million, or $2.42 per share, in 2023. The change in Goodyear net income (loss) was primarily due to lower rationalization charges, higher segment operating income, lower impairment charges and lower other expense. These increases were partially offset by higher U.S. and Foreign Tax Expense.

Net Sales

Net sales in 2024 of $18,878 million decreased $1,188 million, or 5.9%, compared to $20,066 million in 2023, due to lower tire volume of $900 million, primarily in Americas and EMEA, global declines in price and product mix of $349 million and the negative impact of changes in foreign exchange rates globally of $192 million, driven by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of the Tupelo storm on sales in 2023 of $110 million and an increase in sales in other tire-related businesses of $91 million, primarily due to Fleet Solutions in EMEA and higher third-party chemical sales in Americas. Goodyear worldwide tire unit net sales were $15,993 million and $17,288 million in 2024 and 2023, respectively. Consumer and commercial net sales were $12,303 million and $3,247 million in 2024, respectively. Consumer and commercial net sales were $12,894 million and $3,731 million in 2023, respectively.

The decrease in worldwide tire unit sales of 6.7 million units, or 3.9%, compared to 2023, included a decrease of 9.5 million replacement tire units, or 7.3%, reflecting decreases in each region. OE tire units increased by 2.8 million units, or 6.3%, reflecting an increase in EV fitments in Asia Pacific. Consumer and commercial unit sales in 2024 were 154.0 million and 10.9 million, respectively. Consumer and commercial unit sales in 2023 were 159.4 million and 12.1 million, respectively.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of Goods Sold ("CGS") was $15,176 million in 2024, decreasing $1,381 million, or 8.3%, from $16,557 million in 2023. CGS was 80.4% of sales in 2024 compared to 82.5% of sales in 2023. CGS in 2024 decreased primarily due to lower tire volume of $715 million, savings related to the Goodyear Forward plan of $335 million, lower raw material costs of $289 million, foreign currency translation of $154 million, driven by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar, lower costs related to product mix of $146 million globally, a benefit of $92 million ($69 million after-tax and minority) from insurance proceeds for property damage and business interruptions resulting from storm damage events in Americas in prior years, a benefit of $26 million ($17 million after-tax and minority) from insurance recoveries related to the fire at our Debica, Poland tire manufacturing facility, net of fixed costs incurred during the ramp-up of the facility, and a favorable $8 million ($6 million after-tax and minority) tax item in Brazil. These decreases were partially offset by higher conversion costs of $318 million, driven by inflation and the effect of lower tire production on fixed cost absorption, an increase in accelerated depreciation and asset write-offs of $70 million, primarily related to the announced plant closures in Asia Pacific and EMEA, higher costs in other tire-related business of $64 million, driven by Fleet Solutions in EMEA and higher third-party chemical sales in Americas, and a $3 million ($3 million after-tax and minority) charge related to a flood in South Africa.

CGS in 2024 and 2023 included pension expense of $15 million. CGS in 2023 also included the favorable impact of a successful legal claim of $3 million ($3 million after-tax and minority) related to a 2005 warehouse fire in Spain.

Selling, Administrative and General Expense

SAG was $2,782 million in 2024, decreasing $32 million, or 1.1%, from $2,814 million in 2023. SAG was 14.7% of sales in 2024 compared to 14.0% of sales in 2023. SAG decreased primarily due to lower wages and benefits of $92 million driven by Goodyear Forward savings and lower incentive compensation, lower advertising costs of $26 million and lower foreign currency translation of $22 million. These decreases were partially offset by higher asset write-offs, accelerated depreciation and accelerated lease costs of $40 million. SAG in 2024 also included costs related to the Goodyear Forward plan of $105

million ($80 million after-tax and minority) compared to $35 million ($26 million after-tax and minority) in 2023, primarily consisting of advisory, legal and consulting fees incurred to support development and execution of the plan, including costs associated with planned asset sales.

SAG in 2024 and 2023 included pension expense of $11 million. SAG in 2024 included incremental savings from rationalization plans of $46 million compared to $50 million in 2023.

CGS and SAG in 2024 included $146 million ($126 million after-tax and minority) of asset write-offs, accelerated depreciation and accelerated lease charges, primarily related to plant closures in Asia Pacific and EMEA, closure of a development center in the U.S. and the exit of our retail operations in Australia and New Zealand.

CGS and SAG in 2023 included $46 million ($42 million after-tax and minority) of accelerated depreciation and asset write-offs and $10 million ($10 million after-tax and minority) of recoveries of previously written-off accounts receivable and other assets related to our exited business in Russia, which related to rationalization activities.

Rationalizations

We recorded net rationalization charges of $86 million ($72 million after-tax and minority) in 2024. Net rationalization charges include $52 million related to the proposed plan to close our tire manufacturing facilities in Fulda and Fürstenwalde, Germany, $15 million related to the workforce reorganization plan in EMEA, $15 million related to the opening of a shared service center in Costa Rica, the exit of certain Commercial Tire and Service Center locations and global SAG, $12 million related to the closure of our tire manufacturing facility in Malaysia, $11 million related to the closure of our tire manufacturing facility in Melksham, United Kingdom, $4 million related to the closure of certain retail and warehouse locations in Americas, $3 million related to the permanent closure of our Gadsden, Alabama tire manufacturing facility, $3 million related to the global rationalization and workforce reorganization plan and $3 million related to the plan to streamline our EMEA distribution network. These charges were partially offset by reversals of $45 million, primarily related to voluntary attrition in our workforce reorganization plan in EMEA.

We recorded net rationalization charges of $502 million ($436 million after-tax and minority) in 2023. Net rationalization charges include $250 million related to the proposed plan to close Fulda and Fürstenwalde, $166 million for the proposed rationalization and workforce reorganization plan in EMEA, $21 million for the plan to improve profitability in our Australia and New Zealand operations, and $18 million related to the plan to streamline our EMEA distribution network.

Upon completion of new plans initiated in 2024, we estimate that annual segment operating income will improve by approximately $70 million (approximately $40 million SAG and approximately $30 million CGS). The savings realized in 2024 from rationalization plans totaled approximately $60 million (primarily SAG).

For further information, refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 3, Costs Associated with Rationalization Programs.

Goodwill and Intangible Asset Impairment

During 2024, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $125 million ($94 million after-tax and minority) primarily related to our lower tier indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the acquisition of Cooper Tire as a result of increased competition from lower tier imports in the market. During 2023, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $230 million ($216 million after-tax and minority) to write off all of the goodwill of our EMEA reporting unit. For further information, refer to "Critical Accounting Policies - Goodwill and Intangible Assets" and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 11, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, in this Form 10-K.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $522 million in 2024, decreasing $10 million from $532 million in 2023. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in capitalized interest of $9 million.

Other (Income) Expense

Other (Income) Expense was $32 million and $108 million of expense in 2024 and 2023, respectively. The $76 million decrease in expense was primarily due to a $78 million net decrease in foreign currency exchange losses driven by fluctuations in the Argentine peso and the Turkish lira, a net decrease in non-service related pension and other postretirement benefits cost of $49 million primarily due to settlement credits of $3 million ($2 million after-tax and minority) in 2024 compared to pension settlement charges of $40 million ($30 million after-tax and minority) in 2023. Additionally, the change in Other (Income) Expense reflects net gains on asset and other sales of $85 million ($60 million after-tax and minority), primarily related to the sale of distribution centers in EMEA and Americas, compared to a net gain on asset and other sales of $94 million ($69 million after-tax and minority) in 2023, primarily related to a sale and leaseback transaction in Americas. Other (Income) Expense in 2024 had lower interest income of $30 million compared to 2023 and lower royalty income of $9 million compared to 2023.

31


Table of Contents

Other (Income) Expense in 2024 also includes transaction costs of $19 million ($14 million after-tax and minority) related to the anticipated sale of the OTR business and a favorable $2 million ($1 million after-tax and minority) tax item in Brazil. Other (Income) Expense in 2023 included $31 million ($24 million after-tax and minority) of expense in 2023 for non-indemnified costs for product liability claims related to products manufactured by a formerly consolidated joint venture entity, $11 million ($8 million after-tax and minority) of income related to a favorable court decision setting aside a previous unfavorable verdict on intellectual property-related legal claims and $5 million ($5 million after-tax and minority) of income for the write-off of accumulated foreign currency translation related to our exited business in Russia.

For further information, refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 5, Other (Income) Expense.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense in 2024 was $95 million on income before income taxes of $155 million. In 2024, income tax expense includes a net discrete tax benefit totaling $2 million ($2 million after minority interest).

Income tax expense in 2023 was $10 million on a loss before income taxes of $677 million. In 2023, income tax expense includes net discrete tax benefits totaling $9 million ($10 million after minority interest), primarily related to additional prior year withholding tax creditable in the U.S. as a result of a tax law change.

The difference between our effective tax rate and the U.S. statutory rate of 21% for both 2024 and 2023 primarily relates to losses in certain foreign jurisdictions in which no tax benefits are recorded, income in certain foreign jurisdictions taxed at rates higher than the U.S. statutory rate, and the discrete items described above.

The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development ("OECD") have published the Pillar Two model rules which adopt a global corporate minimum tax of 15% for multinational enterprises with average revenue in excess of €750 million. Certain jurisdictions in which we operate enacted legislation consistent with one or more of the OECD Pillar Two model rules effective in 2024. The model rules include minimum domestic top-up taxes, income inclusion rules and undertaxed profit rules, all aimed to ensure that multinational corporations pay a minimum effective corporate tax rate of 15% in each jurisdiction in which they operate. The Pillar Two model rules did not materially impact our annual effective tax rate in 2024. However, we are continuing to evaluate the Pillar Two model rules and related legislation and their potential impact on future periods.

At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had approximately $1.3 billion and $1.2 billion of U.S. federal, state and local net deferred tax assets, respectively, inclusive of valuation allowances totaling $26 million and $22 million, respectively, in each period, primarily for state tax loss carryforwards with limited lives. As of December 31, 2024, approximately $1.1 billion of these U.S. net deferred tax assets had unlimited lives and approximately $200 million had limited lives, including $24 million of foreign tax credits, and the majority do not start to expire until 2030. As of December 31, 2023, approximately $1.0 billion of these U.S. net deferred tax assets had unlimited lives and approximately $200 million had limited lives, including $22 million of foreign tax credits, and the majority do not start to expire until 2030. In the U.S., we have a cumulative loss for the three-year period ended December 31, 2024 primarily driven by non-recurring items such as rationalization charges, pension curtailments and settlements, one-time costs associated with the Goodyear Forward plan, and intangible asset impairments.

In assessing our ability to utilize our net deferred tax assets, we primarily considered objectively verifiable information, including the improvement of our U.S. operating results during 2024 as a result of lower raw material and transportation costs and benefits from the Goodyear Forward plan compared to 2023 as well as non-deductible interest and future royalty income from foreign subsidiaries. In addition, we considered our current forecasts of future profitability in assessing our ability to realize our deferred tax assets as well as the impact of tax planning strategies. These forecasts include the impact of recent trends and various macroeconomic factors such as the impact of raw material, transportation, labor and energy costs on our profitability. Our tax planning strategies include accelerating income on cross border transactions, including sales of inventory or raw materials to our subsidiaries, reducing U.S. interest expense by, for example, reducing intercompany loans through repatriating current year earnings of foreign subsidiaries, repatriation of certain foreign royalty income, and other financing transactions, all of which would increase our domestic profitability.

We believe our improvement in U.S. operating results for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, as well as forecasts of future profitability, provide us sufficient positive evidence to conclude that it is more likely than not that, at December 31, 2024, our U.S. net deferred tax assets will be fully utilized. However, macroeconomic factors such as raw material, transportation, potential tariff, labor and energy costs possess a high degree of volatility and can significantly impact our profitability. In addition, certain tax provisions, such as the annual interest expense limitation under Section 163(j) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, if amended, could impact our analysis of the realizability of our U.S. deferred tax assets. If our U.S. operating results significantly decline in the future, we may need to record a valuation allowance which could adversely impact our operating results. As such, we will closely monitor our U.S. operations as well as any tax law changes to assess the realizability of our U.S. deferred tax assets.

32


Table of Contents

At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we also had approximately $1.5 billion of foreign net deferred tax assets and related valuation allowances of approximately $1.2 billion. Our losses in various foreign taxing jurisdictions in recent periods represented sufficient negative evidence to require us to maintain a full valuation allowance against certain of these net foreign deferred tax assets. Most notably, in Luxembourg, we maintain a valuation allowance of approximately $1.0 billion on all of our net deferred tax assets. Each reporting period, we assess available positive and negative evidence and estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize these existing deferred tax assets. We do not believe that sufficient positive evidence required to release valuation allowances on our foreign deferred tax assets having a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations will exist within the next twelve months.

For further information regarding income taxes and the realizability of our deferred tax assets, refer to "Critical Accounting Policies" and Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 6, Income Taxes.

Minority Shareholders’ Net Income (Loss)

Minority shareholders’ net loss was $10 million in 2024, primarily due to the closure of our Malaysia tire manufacturing facility, compared to net income of $2 million in 2023.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — SEGMENT INFORMATION

Segment information reflects our strategic business units ("SBUs"), which are organized to meet customer requirements and global competition and are segmented on a regional basis.

Results of operations are measured based on net sales to unaffiliated customers and segment operating income. Each segment exports tires to other segments. The financial results of each segment exclude sales of tires exported to other segments, but include operating income derived from such transactions. Segment operating income is computed as follows: Net Sales less CGS (excluding asset write-off and accelerated depreciation charges) and SAG (including certain allocated corporate administrative expenses). Segment operating income also includes certain royalties and equity in earnings of most affiliates. Segment operating income does not include net rationalization charges, asset sales, goodwill and other asset impairment charges and certain other items.

Total segment operating income in 2024 was $1,318 million, an increase of $350 million, or 36.2%, from $968 million in 2023. Total segment operating margin (segment operating income divided by segment sales) in 2024 was 7.0% compared to 4.8% in 2023.

Management believes that total segment operating income is useful because it represents the aggregate value of income created by our SBUs and excludes items not directly related to the SBUs for performance evaluation purposes. Total segment operating income is the sum of the individual SBUs’ segment operating income. Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 8, Business Segments, for further information and for a reconciliation of total segment operating income to Income (Loss) before Income Taxes.

Americas unit sales in 2024 decreased 5.7 million units, or 6.6%, to 81.6 million units. Replacement tire volume decreased 6.6 million units, or 9.0%, primarily due to a decrease in our consumer business, driven by increased competitiveness in the U.S. from the lower tier market and the transitory impact from distribution changes in Latin America. OE tire volume increased 0.9 million units, or 5.9%, primarily due to our consumer business in the U.S. and Brazil.

Net sales in 2024 were $11,033 million, decreasing $960 million, or 8.0%, from $11,993 million in 2023. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to lower tire volume of $821 million and unfavorable price and product mix of $303 million. These decreases were partially offset by $110 million of sales lost during 2023 due to the Tupelo storm, increased sales in other tire-related businesses of $64 million, primarily due to retail and chemical, and a $52 million benefit related to the Goodyear Forward plan.

Operating income in 2024 was $933 million, increasing $184 million, or 24.6%, from $749 million in 2023. The increase in operating income was due to a $315 million benefit related to the Goodyear Forward plan, lower raw material costs of $174 million, a benefit of $92 million from insurance proceeds for business interruptions and property damage resulting from storm damage events in prior years, lower transportation and imported tire costs of $85 million, $55 million related to the 2023 negative impact of the Tupelo storm, lower SAG of $39 million, and increased earnings in other tire-related businesses of $38 million, primarily due to retail and chemical. These increases were partially offset by unfavorable price and product mix of $259 million, higher conversion costs of $179 million, driven by inflation and the effect of lower tire production on fixed cost absorption, and lower tire volume of $172 million. Operating income for 2024 includes incremental savings from rationalization plans of $42 million.

Operating income in 2024 excluded an intangible asset impairment of $125 million, net rationalization charges of $23 million, asset write-offs, accelerated depreciation and accelerated lease costs of $14 million, and net gains on asset sales of $13 million. Operating income in 2023 excluded net gains on asset sales of $104 million, primarily related to sale and leaseback transactions, net rationalization charges of $19 million, and accelerated depreciation and asset write-offs of $19 million.

Americas results are highly dependent upon the United States, which accounted for 84% of Americas net sales in 2024 and 83% in 2023. Results of operations in the United States are expected to continue to have a significant impact on Americas future performance.

Europe, Middle East and Africa unit sales in 2024 decreased 1.0 million units, or 2.0%, to 48.9 million units. Replacement tire volume decreased 0.8 million units, or 2.1%, primarily in our consumer business, reflecting the impacts of competitiveness from the lower tier market, and lower tire volume, particularly in Turkey. OE tire volume decreased 0.2 million units, or 1.6%, primarily in our commercial business, driven by lower vehicle production.

Net sales in 2024 were $5,425 million, decreasing $181 million, or 3.2%, from $5,606 million in 2023. The decrease in net sales was primarily driven by the negative impact of changes in foreign exchange rates of $101 million, driven by a weaker Turkish lira, partially offset by a stronger euro, Polish zloty and British pound, lower tire volume of $86 million, and unfavorable price and product mix of $19 million. These decreases were partially offset by higher sales in other tire-related businesses of $24 million, primarily due to growth in Fleet Solutions.

Operating income in 2024 was $108 million, increasing $91 million, or 535.3%, from $17 million in 2023. The increase in operating income was primarily due to lower raw material costs of $132 million and benefits related to the Goodyear Forward plan of $121 million. These improvements were partially offset by higher conversion costs of $147 million, driven by the effect of decreased tire production on fixed cost absorption and inflation, and lower tire volume of $15 million. Operating income in 2024 includes incremental SAG and CGS savings from rationalization plans of $10 million and $8 million, respectively.

Operating income in 2024 excluded a $79 million gain on asset sales, accelerated depreciation and accelerated lease charges of $68 million, and net rationalization charges of $36 million. Operating income in 2023 excluded net rationalization charges of $409 million, a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $230 million, accelerated depreciation of $27 million and recoveries of previously written-off accounts receivable and other assets of $10 million in Russia.

EMEA’s results are highly dependent upon Germany, which accounted for 17% and 15% of EMEA’s net sales in both 2024 and 2023, respectively. Results of operations in Germany are expected to continue to have a significant impact on EMEA’s future performance.

Asia Pacific unit sales were flat in 2024. OE tire volume increased 2.1 million units, or 13.2%, primarily due to an increase in consumer EV fitments in China. Replacement tire volume decreased 2.1 million units, or 10.4%, due to the impact of the Australia transformation and softness in consumer replacement in most of our markets.

Net sales in 2024 were $2,420 million, decreasing $47 million, or 1.9%, from $2,467 million in 2023. The decrease in net sales was primarily driven by the negative impact of changes in foreign exchange rates of $30 million due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar and unfavorable price and product mix of $27 million driven by the Australia transformation, partially offset by higher sales in other tire-related businesses of $3 million.

Operating income in 2024 was $277 million, increasing $75 million, or 37.1%, from $202 million in 2023. The increase in operating income was primarily due to favorable price and product mix of $51 million and a benefit related to the Goodyear Forward plan of $44 million. These increases were partially offset by higher raw material costs of $17 million and unfavorable foreign currency translation of $4 million.

Operating income in 2024 excluded asset write-offs, accelerated depreciation and accelerated lease charges of $44 million, net rationalization charges of $13 million, and net gains on asset sales of $1 million. Operating income in 2023 excluded net rationalization charges of $25 million.

Asia Pacific’s results are highly dependent upon China, Australia and India. China accounted for 38% and 33% of Asia Pacific’s net sales in 2024 and 2023, respectively. India accounted for 17% of Asia Pacific’s net sales for both 2024 and 2023. Australia accounted for 17% and 21% of Asia Pacific’s net sales in 2024 and 2023, respectively. Results of operations in China and India are expected to have a significant impact on Asia Pacific's future performance.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from our operating and financing activities. Our cash flows from operating activities are driven primarily by our operating results and changes in our working capital requirements and our cash flows from financing activities are dependent upon our ability to access credit or other capital.

At December 31, 2024, we had $810 million of Cash and Cash Equivalents, compared to $902 million at December 31, 2023. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $92 million was primarily due to capital expenditures of $1,188 million, partially offset by cash provided by operating activities of $698 million, net borrowings of $264 million, cash proceeds from asset sales of $115 million and insurance recoveries for damaged property, plant and equipment of $62 million. Cash provided by operating activities reflects net income for the period of $60 million, which includes non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization of $1,049 million, a non-cash impairment charge of $125 million, non-cash rationalization charges of $86 million, a non-cash gain on asset sales of $93 million, primarily related to the sale of a distribution center in Germany, and a non-cash gain on insurance recoveries of $75 million. Operating activities also include rationalization payments of $198 million, cash used for working capital of $82 million and pension contributions and direct payments of $69 million.

At December 31, 2024 and 2023, we had $3,555 million and $4,247 million, respectively, of unused availability under our various credit agreements. The table below provides unused availability by our significant credit facilities as of December 31:

We expect our 2025 cash flow needs to include capital expenditures of approximately $950 million. We also expect interest expense to be $450 million to $475 million; rationalization payments to be approximately $400 million; income tax payments to be approximately $200 million, excluding one-time items; and contributions to our funded pension plans to be $25 million to $50 million. We expect working capital to be a source of cash of $100 million to $150 million as compared to 2024.

We actively monitor our liquidity and intend to operate our business in a way that allows us to address our cash flow needs with our existing cash and available credit if they cannot be funded by cash generated from operating or other financing activities. We believe that our liquidity position is adequate to fund our operating and investing needs and debt maturities for the next twelve months and to provide us with the ability to respond to further changes in the business environment.

Our ability to service debt and operational requirements is also dependent, in part, on the ability of our subsidiaries to make distributions of cash to various other entities in our consolidated group, whether in the form of dividends, loans or otherwise. In certain countries where we operate, such as China, South Africa, Serbia and Argentina, transfers of funds into or out of such countries by way of dividends, loans, advances or payments to third-party or affiliated suppliers are generally or periodically subject to certain requirements, such as obtaining approval from the foreign government and/or currency exchange board before net assets can be transferred out of the country. In addition, certain of our credit agreements and other debt instruments limit the ability of foreign subsidiaries to make distributions of cash. Thus, we would have to repay and/or amend these credit agreements and other debt instruments in order to use this cash to service our consolidated debt. Because of the inherent uncertainty of satisfactorily meeting these requirements or limitations, we do not consider the net assets of our subsidiaries, including our Chinese, South African, Serbian and Argentinian subsidiaries, which are subject to such requirements or limitations to be integral to our liquidity or our ability to service our debt and operational requirements. At December 31, 2024, approximately $790 million of net assets, including approximately $182 million of cash and cash equivalents, were subject to such requirements. The requirements we must comply with to transfer funds out of China, South Africa, Serbia and Argentina have not adversely impacted our ability to make transfers out of those countries.

Cash Position

At December 31, 2024, significant concentrations of cash and cash equivalents held by our international subsidiaries included the following amounts:

$242 million or 30% in Asia Pacific, primarily China, Australia and India ($244 million or 27% at December 31, 2023),
$199 million or 25% in Americas, primarily Brazil, Chile and Mexico ($237 million or 26% at December 31, 2023), and

37


Table of Contents

$193 million or 24% in EMEA, primarily Turkey and Ukraine ($297 million or 33% at December 31, 2023).

We have deposited our cash and cash equivalents and entered into various credit agreements and derivative contracts with financial institutions that we considered to be substantial and creditworthy at the time of such transactions. We seek to control our exposure to these financial institutions by diversifying our deposits, credit agreements and derivative contracts across multiple financial institutions, by setting deposit and counterparty credit limits based on long term credit ratings and other indicators of credit risk such as credit default swap spreads and default probabilities, and by monitoring the financial strength of these financial institutions on a regular basis. We also enter into master netting agreements with counterparties when possible. By controlling and monitoring exposure to financial institutions in this manner, we believe that we effectively manage the risk of loss due to nonperformance by a financial institution. However, we cannot provide assurance that we will not experience losses or delays in accessing our deposits or lines of credit due to the nonperformance of a financial institution. Our inability to access our cash deposits or make draws on our lines of credit, or the inability of a counterparty to fulfill its contractual obligations to us, could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition or results of operations in the period in which it occurs.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $698 million in 2024, decreasing $334 million compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $1,032 million in 2023.

The decrease in cash provided by operating activities reflects a net increase in cash used for working capital of $381 million, year-over-year changes in balance sheet accounts for Other Current Liabilities and Other Assets and Liabilities totaling $171 million and an increase in rationalization payments of $99 million, partially offset by higher earnings in our SBUs of $350 million.

The net increase in cash used for working capital reflects an increase in cash used for Inventory of $1,030 million, partially offset by a decrease in cash used by Accounts Payable - Trade of $463 million and an increase in cash provided by Accounts Receivable of $186 million.

Investing Activities

Net cash used for investing activities was $1,005 million in 2024, compared to $1,035 million in 2023. The $30 million decrease in cash used for investing activities primarily relates to an increase in proceeds from asset dispositions of $99 million, insurance recoveries of $62 million for the replacement of equipment damaged in the Debica fire and building damage in Tupelo and a net decrease in loans to TireHub of $56 million, partially offset by a decrease in proceeds from sale and leaseback transactions of $83 million. In addition, capital expenditures were $1,188 million in 2024, increasing $138 million, compared to $1,050 million in 2023. Beyond expenditures required to sustain our facilities, capital expenditures in 2024 and 2023 primarily related to the modernization and expansion of tire manufacturing facilities around the world.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $225 million in 2024, compared to cash used for financing activities of $333 million in 2023. The $558 million increase in cash provided by financing activities reflects higher net borrowings due to lower cash flows from operations.

Credit Sources

In aggregate, we had total credit arrangements of $11,223 million available at December 31, 2024, of which $3,555 million were unused, compared to $11,743 million available at December 31, 2023, of which $4,247 million were unused. At December 31, 2024, we had long term credit arrangements totaling $10,352 million, of which $3,263 million were unused, compared to $10,983 million and $3,867 million, respectively, at December 31, 2023. At December 31, 2024, we had short term committed and uncommitted credit arrangements totaling $871 million, of which $292 million were unused, compared to $760 million and $380 million, respectively, at December 31, 2023. The continued availability of the short term uncommitted arrangements is at the discretion of the relevant lender and may be terminated at any time.

Outstanding Notes

At December 31, 2024, we had $5,240 million of outstanding notes, compared to $5,571 million at December 31, 2023.

$2.75 Billion Amended and Restated First Lien Revolving Credit Facility due 2026

Our first lien revolving credit facility matures on June 8, 2026 and is available in the form of loans or letters of credit. Up to $800 million in letters of credit and $50 million of swingline loans are available for issuance under the facility. Subject to the consent of the lenders whose commitments are to be increased, we may request that the facility be increased by up to $250 million. Based on our current liquidity, amounts drawn under this facility bear interest at SOFR plus 125 basis points. Undrawn amounts under the facility are subject to an annual commitment fee of 25 basis points.

38


Table of Contents

Availability under the facility is subject to a borrowing base, which is based on (i) eligible accounts receivable and inventory of The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company and certain of its U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries, (ii) the value of our principal trademarks in an amount not to exceed $400 million, (iii) the value of eligible machinery and equipment, and (iv) certain cash in an amount not to exceed $275 million. To the extent that our eligible accounts receivable, inventory and other components of the borrowing base decline in value, our borrowing base will decrease and the availability under the facility may decrease below $2.75 billion. As of December 31, 2024, our borrowing base was above the facility's stated amount of $2.75 billion.

At December 31, 2024, we had $700 million of borrowings and $1 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility. At December 31, 2023, we had $385 million of borrowings and $1 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility.

€800 Million Amended and Restated Senior Secured European Revolving Credit Facility due 2028

The European revolving credit facility matures on January 14, 2028 and consists of (i) a €180 million German tranche that is available only to Goodyear Germany GmbH and (ii) a €620 million all-borrower tranche that is available to Goodyear Europe B.V. ("GEBV"), Goodyear Germany and Goodyear Operations S.A. Up to €175 million of swingline loans and €75 million in letters of credit are available for issuance under the all-borrower tranche. Subject to the consent of the lenders whose commitments are to be increased, we may request that the facility be increased by up to €200 million. Amounts drawn under this facility will bear interest at SOFR plus 150 basis points for loans denominated in U.S. dollars, EURIBOR plus 150 basis points for loans denominated in euros, and SONIA plus 150 basis points for loans denominated in pounds sterling. Undrawn amounts under the facility are subject to an annual commitment fee of 25 basis points.

At December 31, 2024 and 2023, we had no borrowings and no letters of credit outstanding under the European revolving credit facility.

Each of our first lien revolving credit facility and our European revolving credit facility have customary representations and warranties including, as a condition to borrowing, that all such representations and warranties are true and correct, in all material respects, on the date of the borrowing, including representations as to no material adverse change in our business or financial condition since December 31, 2020 under the first lien facility and December 31, 2021 under the European facility.

Accounts Receivable Securitization Facilities (On-Balance Sheet)

GEBV and certain other of our European subsidiaries are parties to a pan-European accounts receivable securitization facility that expires in 2027. The terms of the facility provide the flexibility to designate annually the maximum amount of funding available under the facility in an amount of not less than €30 million and not more than €450 million. For the period from October 19, 2023 through October 16, 2024, the designated maximum amount of the facility was €300 million. For the period from October 17, 2024 through October 16, 2025, the designated maximum amount of the facility will remain €300 million.

The facility involves an ongoing daily sale of substantially all of the trade accounts receivable of certain GEBV subsidiaries. These subsidiaries retain servicing responsibilities. Utilization under this facility is based on eligible receivable balances.

The funding commitments under the facility will expire upon the earliest to occur of: (a) October 19, 2027, (b) the non-renewal and expiration (without substitution) of all of the back-up liquidity commitments, (c) the early termination of the facility according to its terms (generally upon an Early Amortisation Event (as defined in the facility), which includes, among other things, events similar to the events of default under our first lien revolving credit facility; certain tax law changes; or certain changes to law, regulation or accounting standards), or (d) our request for early termination of the facility. The facility’s current back-up liquidity commitments will expire on October 16, 2025.

At December 31, 2024, the amounts available and utilized under this program totaled $227 million (€218 million). At December 31, 2023, the amounts available and utilized under this program totaled $244 million (€221 million). The program does not qualify for sale accounting, and accordingly, these amounts are included in Long Term Debt and Finance Leases.

Accounts Receivable Factoring Facilities (Off-Balance Sheet)

We have sold certain of our trade receivables under off-balance sheet programs. For these programs, we have concluded that there is generally no risk of loss to us from non-payment of the sold receivables. At December 31, 2024, the gross amount of receivables sold was $773 million, compared to $693 million at December 31, 2023.

Letters of Credit

At December 31, 2024, we had $211 million in letters of credit issued under bilateral letter of credit agreements and other foreign credit facilities.

Supplier Financing

39


Table of Contents

We have entered into payment processing agreements with several financial institutions. Under these agreements, the financial institutions act as our paying agents with respect to accounts payable due to our suppliers. These agreements also allow our suppliers to sell their receivables to the financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the supplier and the financial institution on terms that are negotiated between them. We are not always notified when our suppliers sell receivables under these programs. Our obligations to our suppliers, including the amounts due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by our suppliers' decisions to sell their receivables under these programs. Agreements for such supplier financing programs totaled up to $775 million and $892 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The amounts confirmed to the financial institutions were $604 million and $580 million at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and are included in Accounts Payable — Trade in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. All activity related to these obligations is presented within operating activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Further Information

For a further description of the terms of our outstanding notes, first lien revolving credit facility, European revolving credit facility and pan-European accounts receivable securitization facility, refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 15, Financing Arrangements and Derivative Financial Instruments.

Covenant Compliance

Our first lien revolving credit facility and some of the indentures governing our notes contain certain covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to incur additional debt or issue redeemable preferred stock, pay dividends, repurchase shares or make certain other restricted payments or investments, incur liens, sell assets, incur restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or to make other payments to us, enter into affiliate transactions, engage in sale and leaseback transactions, and consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets. These covenants are subject to significant exceptions and qualifications. Our first lien revolving credit facility and the indentures governing our notes also have customary defaults, including cross-defaults to material indebtedness of Goodyear and its subsidiaries.

We have an additional financial covenant in our first lien revolving credit facility that is currently not applicable. We become subject to that financial covenant when the aggregate amount of our Parent Company (The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company) and guarantor subsidiaries cash and cash equivalents (“Available Cash”) plus our availability under our first lien revolving credit facility is less than $275 million. If this were to occur, our ratio of EBITDA to Consolidated Interest Expense may not be less than 2.0 to 1.0 for the most recent period of four consecutive fiscal quarters. As of December 31, 2024, our unused availability under this facility of $2,049 million plus our Available Cash of $168 million totaled $2,217 million, which is in excess of $275 million.

In addition, our European revolving credit facility contains non-financial covenants similar to the non-financial covenants in our first lien revolving credit facility that are described above, similar non-financial covenants specifically applicable to GEBV and its subsidiaries, and a financial covenant applicable only to GEBV and its subsidiaries. This financial covenant provides that we are not permitted to allow GEBV’s ratio of Consolidated Net GEBV Indebtedness to Consolidated GEBV EBITDA for a period of four consecutive fiscal quarters to be greater than 3.0 to 1.0 at the end of any fiscal quarter. Consolidated Net GEBV Indebtedness is determined net of the sum of cash and cash equivalents in excess of $100 million held by GEBV and its subsidiaries, cash and cash equivalents in excess of $150 million held by the Parent Company and its U.S. subsidiaries, and availability under our first lien revolving credit facility if the ratio of EBITDA to Consolidated Interest Expense described above is not applicable and the conditions to borrowing under the first lien revolving credit facility are met. Consolidated Net GEBV Indebtedness also excludes loans from other consolidated Goodyear entities. This financial covenant is also included in our pan-European accounts receivable securitization facility. At December 31, 2024, we were in compliance with this financial covenant.

Our credit facilities also state that we may only incur additional debt or make restricted payments that are not otherwise expressly permitted if, after giving effect to the debt incurrence or the restricted payment, our ratio of EBITDA to Consolidated Interest Expense for the prior four fiscal quarters would exceed 2.0 to 1.0. Certain of our senior note indentures have substantially similar limitations on incurring debt and making restricted payments. Our credit facilities and indentures also permit the incurrence of additional debt through other provisions in those agreements without regard to our ability to satisfy the ratio-based incurrence test described above. We believe that these other provisions provide us with sufficient flexibility to incur additional debt necessary to meet our operating, investing and financing needs without regard to our ability to satisfy the ratio-based incurrence test.

Covenants could change based upon a refinancing or amendment of an existing facility, or additional covenants may be added in connection with the incurrence of new debt.

As of December 31, 2024, we were in compliance with the currently applicable material covenants imposed by our principal credit facilities and indentures.

The terms “Available Cash,” “EBITDA,” “Consolidated Interest Expense,” “Consolidated Net GEBV Indebtedness” and “Consolidated GEBV EBITDA” have the meanings given them in the respective credit facilities.

Potential Future Financings

On July 22, 2024, we entered into a commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”) to provide us a 364-day senior unsecured committed credit facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $500 million (the “Committed Credit Facility”). If drawn, borrowings under the Committed Credit Facility would be required to be used solely to redeem our remaining outstanding 9.5% Senior Notes due 2025 (the “9.5% Notes”). On February 3, 2025, following the closing of the sale of our OTR tire business to Yokohama, the commitments under the Commitment Letter for the Committed Credit Facility were reduced to zero and the Commitment Letter was terminated in accordance with its terms. On February 4, 2025, we called for redemption in full of the 9.5% Notes on February 19, 2025 (the “Redemption Date”) at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

In addition to the financing activities described above, we may seek to undertake additional financing actions which could include restructuring bank debt or capital markets transactions, possibly including the issuance of additional debt or equity. Given the inherent uncertainty of market conditions, access to the capital markets cannot be assured.

Our future liquidity requirements may make it necessary for us to incur additional debt. However, a substantial portion of our assets are already subject to liens securing our indebtedness. As a result, we are limited in our ability to pledge our remaining assets as security for additional secured indebtedness. In addition, no assurance can be given as to our ability to raise additional unsecured debt.

Dividends and Common Stock Repurchase Program

Under our primary credit facilities and some of our note indentures, we are permitted to pay dividends on and repurchase our capital stock (which constitute restricted payments) as long as no default will have occurred and be continuing, additional indebtedness can be incurred under the credit facilities or indentures following the payment, and certain financial tests are satisfied.

No cash dividends were paid on our common stock in 2024, 2023 or 2022.

We may repurchase shares delivered to us by employees as payment for the exercise price of stock options and the withholding taxes due upon the exercise of stock options or the vesting or payment of stock awards. During 2024, 2023 and 2022, we did not repurchase any shares from our employees.

The restrictions imposed by our credit facilities and indentures are not expected to affect our ability to pay dividends or repurchase our capital stock in the future.

Asset Dispositions

Historically, the restrictions on asset sales and sale and leaseback transactions imposed by our material indebtedness have not affected our ability to divest non-core businesses or assets. Although it is not a condition to closing, the sale of the Dunlop brand will require a waiver or an amendment of our European revolving credit facility. We may undertake additional asset sales and sale and leaseback transactions in the future. The restrictions imposed by our material indebtedness may require us to seek further waivers or amendments of covenants or alternative sources of financing to proceed with future transactions. We cannot assure you that such waivers, amendments or alternative financing could be obtained, or if obtained, would be on terms acceptable to us.

Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information

Certain of our subsidiaries, which are listed on Exhibit 22.1 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K and are generally holding or operating companies, have guaranteed our obligations under the $500 million outstanding principal amount of 9.5% senior notes due 2025, the $900 million outstanding principal amount of 5% senior notes due 2026, the $700 million outstanding principal amount of 4.875% senior notes due 2027, the $850 million outstanding principal amount of 5% senior notes due 2029, the $550 million outstanding principal amount of 5.25% senior notes due April 2031, the $600 million outstanding principal amount of 5.25% senior notes due July 2031 and the $450 million outstanding principal amount of 5.625% senior notes due 2033 (collectively, the “Notes”).

The Notes have been issued by The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (the “Parent Company”) and are its senior unsecured obligations. The Notes rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future senior unsecured obligations and senior to any of our future subordinated indebtedness. The Notes are effectively subordinated to our existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the assets securing that indebtedness. The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by each of our wholly-owned U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries that also guarantee our obligations under our first lien revolving credit facility (such guarantees, the “Guarantees”; and, such guaranteeing subsidiaries, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). The Guarantees are senior unsecured obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors and rank equally in right of

41


Table of Contents

payment with all existing and future senior unsecured obligations of our Subsidiary Guarantors. The Guarantees are effectively subordinated to existing and future secured indebtedness of the Subsidiary Guarantors to the extent of the assets securing that indebtedness.

The Notes are structurally subordinated to all of the existing and future debt and other liabilities, including trade payables, of our subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Notes (the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries will have no obligation, contingent or otherwise, to pay amounts due under the Notes or to make funds available to pay those amounts. Certain Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries are limited in their ability to remit funds to us by means of dividends, advances or loans due to required foreign government and/or currency exchange board approvals or limitations in credit agreements or other debt instruments of those subsidiaries.

The Subsidiary Guarantors, as primary obligors and not merely as sureties, jointly and severally irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee on a senior unsecured basis the performance and full and punctual payment when due of all obligations of the Parent Company under the Notes and the related indentures, whether for payment of principal of or interest on the Notes, expenses, indemnification or otherwise. The Guarantees of the Subsidiary Guarantors are subject to release in limited circumstances only upon the occurrence of certain customary conditions.

Although the Guarantees provide the holders of Notes with a direct unsecured claim against the assets of the Subsidiary Guarantors, under U.S. federal bankruptcy law and comparable provisions of U.S. state fraudulent transfer laws, in certain circumstances a court could cancel a Guarantee and order the return of any payments made thereunder to the Subsidiary Guarantor or to a fund for the benefit of its creditors.

A court might take these actions if it found, among other things, that when the Subsidiary Guarantors incurred the debt evidenced by their Guarantee (i) they received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration for the incurrence of the debt and (ii) any one of the following conditions was satisfied:

the Subsidiary Guarantor was insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of the incurrence;
the Subsidiary Guarantor was engaged in a business or transaction for which its remaining assets constituted unreasonably small capital; or
the Subsidiary Guarantor intended to incur, or believed (or reasonably should have believed) that it would incur, debts beyond its ability to pay as those debts matured.

In applying the above factors, a court would likely find that a Subsidiary Guarantor did not receive fair consideration or reasonably equivalent value for its Guarantee, except to the extent that it benefited directly or indirectly from the issuance of the Notes. The determination of whether a guarantor was or was not rendered “insolvent” when it entered into its guarantee will vary depending on the law of the jurisdiction being applied. Generally, an entity would be considered insolvent if the sum of its debts (including contingent or unliquidated debts) is greater than all of its assets at a fair valuation or if the present fair salable value of its assets is less than the amount that will be required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts, including contingent or unliquidated debts, as they mature.

Under Canadian federal bankruptcy and insolvency laws and comparable provincial laws on preferences, fraudulent conveyances or other challengeable or voidable transactions, the Guarantees could be challenged as a preference, fraudulent conveyance, transfer at undervalue or other challengeable or voidable transaction. The test to be applied varies among the different pieces of legislation, but as a general matter these types of challenges may arise in circumstances where:

such action was intended to defeat, hinder, delay, defraud or prejudice creditors or others;
such action was taken within a specified period of time prior to the commencement of proceedings under Canadian bankruptcy, insolvency or restructuring legislation in respect of a Subsidiary Guarantor, the consideration received by the Subsidiary Guarantor was conspicuously less than the fair market value of the consideration given, and the Subsidiary Guarantor was insolvent or rendered insolvent by such action and (in some circumstances, or) such action was intended to defraud, defeat or delay a creditor;
such action was taken within a specified period of time prior to the commencement of proceedings under Canadian bankruptcy, insolvency or restructuring legislation in respect of a Subsidiary Guarantor and such action was taken, or is deemed to have been taken, with a view to giving a creditor a preference over other creditors or, in some circumstances, had the effect of giving a creditor a preference over other creditors; or
a Subsidiary Guarantor is found to have acted in a manner that was oppressive, unfairly prejudicial to or unfairly disregarded the interests of any shareholder, creditor, director, officer or other interested party.

In addition, in certain insolvency proceedings a Canadian court may subordinate claims in respect of the Guarantees to other claims against a Subsidiary Guarantor under the principle of equitable subordination if the court determines that (1) the holder

Table of Contents

of Notes engaged in some type of inequitable or improper conduct, (2) the inequitable or improper conduct resulted in injury to other creditors or conferred an unfair advantage upon the holder of Notes and (3) equitable subordination is not inconsistent with the provisions of the relevant solvency statute.

If a court canceled a Guarantee, the holders of Notes would no longer have a claim against that Subsidiary Guarantor or its assets.

Each Guarantee is limited, by its terms, to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor without rendering the Guarantee, as it relates to that Subsidiary Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor is a consolidated subsidiary of the Parent Company at the date of the balance sheet presented. The following tables present summarized financial information for the Parent Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors on a combined basis after elimination of (i) intercompany transactions and balances among the Parent Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and (ii) equity in earnings from and investments in any Non-Guarantor Subsidiary.

(1)
Debt obligations include Notes Payable and Overdrafts, and excludes the impact of deferred financing fees, unamortized discounts, and a fair value step-up related to the Cooper Tire acquisition.
(2)
The minimum lease payments for finance lease obligations are $727 million.
(3)
These amounts represent future interest payments related to our existing debt obligations and finance leases based on fixed and variable interest rates specified in the associated debt and lease agreements. The amounts provided relate only to existing debt obligations and do not assume the refinancing or replacement of such debt or future changes in variable interest rates.
(4)
Operating lease obligations have not been reduced by minimum sublease rentals of $7 million, $4 million, $3 million, $2 million, $1 million and $1 million in each of the periods above, respectively, for a total of $18 million. Payments, net of minimum sublease rentals, total $1,279 million. The present value of the net operating lease payments, including sublease rentals, is $989 million. The operating leases relate to, among other things, real estate, vehicles, data processing equipment and miscellaneous other assets. No asset is leased from any related party.
(5)
The obligation related to pension benefits is actuarially determined and is reflective of obligations as of December 31, 2024. Although subject to change, the amounts set forth in the table represent the mid-point of the range of our expected contributions for funded U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans, plus expected cash funding of direct participant payments to our U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans.

We made significant contributions to fully fund our U.S. pension plans in 2013 and 2014. We have no minimum funding requirements for our funded U.S. pension plans under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") or the provisions of our USW collective bargaining agreement, including a provision which requires us to maintain an annual ERISA funded status for the Goodyear U.S. hourly pension plan of at least 97%.

Future U.S. pension contributions will be affected by our ability to offset changes in future interest rates with returns from our asset portfolios and any changes to ERISA. For further information on the U.S. pension investment strategy, refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 17, Pension, Other Postretirement Benefits and Savings Plans.

Future non-U.S. contributions are affected by factors such as:

future interest rate levels,
the amount and timing of asset returns, and
how contributions in excess of the minimum requirements could impact the amount and timing of future contributions.
(6)
The payments presented above are expected payments for the next 10 years. The payments for other postretirement benefits reflect the estimated benefit payments of the plans using the provisions currently in effect. Under the relevant summary plan descriptions or plan documents, we have the right to modify or terminate the plans. The obligation related to other postretirement benefits is actuarially determined on an annual basis.
(7)
The payments for workers’ compensation obligations are based upon recent historical payment patterns on claims. The present value of anticipated claims payments for workers’ compensation is $158 million.
(8)
Binding commitments are for raw materials, capital expenditures, utilities, and various other types of contracts. The obligations to purchase raw materials include supply contracts at both fixed and variable prices. Those with variable prices are based on index rates for those commodities at December 31, 2024.

(9)
These amounts primarily represent expected payments with interest for uncertain income tax positions as of December 31, 2024. We have reflected them in the period in which we believe they will be ultimately settled based upon our experience with these matters.

Additional other long term liabilities include items such as general and product liabilities, environmental liabilities and miscellaneous other long term liabilities. These other liabilities are not contractual obligations by nature. We cannot, with any degree of reliability, determine the years in which these liabilities might ultimately be settled. Accordingly, these other long term liabilities are not included in the above table.

In addition, pursuant to certain long term agreements, we will purchase varying amounts of certain raw materials and finished goods at agreed upon base prices that may be subject to periodic adjustments for changes in raw material costs and market price adjustments, or in quantities that may be subject to periodic adjustments for changes in our or our suppliers' production levels. These contingent contractual obligations, the amounts of which cannot be estimated, are not included in the table above.

We do not engage in the trading of commodity contracts or any related derivative contracts. We generally purchase raw materials and energy through short term, intermediate and long term supply contracts at fixed prices or at formula prices related to market prices or negotiated prices. We may, however, from time to time, enter into contracts to hedge our energy costs.

We have an agreement to provide a revolving loan commitment to TireHub, LLC. During the first quarter of 2024, the revolving loan commitment increased from $100 million to $130 million. At December 31, 2024, $119 million was drawn on this commitment, which includes $2 million of interest.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

An off-balance sheet arrangement is any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement involving an unconsolidated entity under which a company has:

made guarantees,
retained or held a contingent interest in transferred assets,
undertaken an obligation under certain derivative instruments, or
undertaken any obligation arising out of a material variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to the company, or that engages in leasing, hedging or research and development arrangements with the company.

We have entered into certain arrangements under which we have provided guarantees that are off-balance sheet arrangements. Those guarantees totaled $29 million at December 31, 2024. For further information about our guarantees, refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 19, Commitments and Contingent Liabilities.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and related notes to the financial statements. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates based on currently available information. Changes in facts and circumstances may alter such estimates and affect our results of operations and financial position in future periods. Our critical accounting policies relate to:

goodwill and intangible assets,
general and product liability and other litigation,
workers’ compensation,
deferred tax asset valuation allowances and uncertain income tax positions, and
pensions and other postretirement benefits.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if an indicator of impairment is present. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their useful lives and are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances warrant such review. Goodwill and intangible assets are written down to fair value if considered impaired. Goodwill and Intangible Assets totaled $756 million and $805 million, respectively, at December 31, 2024, compared to $781 million and $969 million, respectively, at December 31, 2023. At December 31, 2024, the goodwill associated with reporting units in our Americas and Asia Pacific segments was $715 million and $41 million.

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized but are assessed for impairment annually on October 31st with the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary or to perform a quantitative assessment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit or indefinite-lived intangible asset to its carrying value. In addition to the annual assessment, impairment evaluation is considered during interim periods when events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the asset below its carrying value. During our annual impairment assessment and in subsequent interim periods, we review events that occur or circumstances that change, including the macroeconomic environment, our business performance and our market capitalization, to determine if a quantitative impairment assessment is necessary. We review our business performance and the macroeconomic environment against our recent expectations and evaluate book value compared to market capitalization, including fluctuations in our stock price, to determine if this could be an indicator of potential impairment. Consideration is given as to whether a fluctuation in our stock price is a result of current market conditions, due to a transitory event or an event that is expected to continue to affect us, or is consistent with our historical stock price volatility. We also consider these factors compared to the results of our most recent quantitative goodwill impairment assessment.

Under the qualitative assessment, we assess whether it is more likely than not (defined as a likelihood of more than 50%) that the fair value of our goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets is less than the respective carrying values. If it is more likely than not that an impairment exists, then a quantitative impairment assessment is performed. If under the quantitative assessment the fair value is less than the carrying value, an impairment loss will be recorded for the difference between the carrying value and the fair value. Under the quantitative assessment, we estimate the fair value of goodwill using the discounted cash flows of a reporting unit. For indefinite-lived intangible assets we estimate the fair value using discounted cash flows following a relief-from-royalty method utilizing a market-based royalty rate. Forecasts of future cash flows are based on our best estimate of projected revenue and projected operating margin, based primarily on sales and production volume, pricing, raw material costs, market share, industry outlook, general economic conditions, and certain strategic actions we plan to implement. Cash flows are discounted using our weighted average cost of capital.

During the third quarter of 2024, we experienced a decline in our market capitalization as a result of a decrease in our stock price. Our stock price has a history of volatility, however, given the decrease was sustained throughout the quarter, we viewed this event as a triggering event and performed a quantitative analysis of the fair value of the North America reporting unit in our Americas segment as of September 30, 2024 which resulted in an estimated fair value that exceeded its carrying value, including goodwill.

As part of our annual impairment analysis as of October 31, 2024, we completed a quantitative impairment analysis of our North America and Asia Pacific reporting units to determine if their fair values were less than their carrying amounts. Based on the quantitative test, the North America reporting unit had an estimated fair value that exceeded its carrying value, including goodwill, by approximately 11% and the Asia Pacific reporting unit substantially exceeded its carrying value.

We determined the estimated fair value for the reporting units based on discounted cash flow projections. The most critical assumptions used in the calculation of the fair value of each reporting unit are the projected revenue, projected operating margin and discount rate. Our forecast of future cash flows is based on our best estimate of projected revenue and projected operating margin, based primarily on pricing, raw material costs, market share, industry outlook, general economic conditions and strategic actions to improve our operating margin. The fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is sensitive to differences between estimated and actual cash flows, including changes in the projected revenue, projected operating margin and discount rate used to evaluate the fair value of the reporting unit. Although we believe our estimate of fair value is reasonable, if a reporting unit’s future financial performance falls below our expectations, there are adverse revisions to significant assumptions, or our market capitalization declines further or does not improve from the strategic actions we are implementing, this could be indicative that the fair values of each of our reporting units has declined below their carrying values, and therefore we may need to record a material, non-cash goodwill impairment charge in a future period.

In the third quarter of 2024, we experienced a decline in volumes primarily in our lower tier indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the acquisition of Cooper Tire as a result of increased competition from lower tier imports in the market. We viewed this event as a triggering event and performed a quantitative analysis of the fair value of our indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the acquisition of Cooper Tire as of September 30, 2024. Based on the results of the quantitative impairment assessments, the fair value of the intangible assets was less than the carrying value, resulting in a non-cash impairment charge of $125 million during the third quarter of 2024.

As part of our annual impairment analysis as of October 31, 2024, we completed a quantitative impairment analysis of our indefinite-lived intangible assets to determine if their fair values were less than their carrying amounts. Based on the results of the quantitative impairment assessments, the Company determined that no impairment was required as the estimated fair values of our indefinite-lived intangible assets exceeded or approximated their respective carrying values. We identified $435 million of indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the Cooper Tire acquisition for which the estimated fair values approximated their respective carrying values. We determined the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets using the relief-from-royalty method, which calculates the cost savings associated with owning rather than licensing the assets. The most critical assumptions used in the calculation of the fair value are projected revenue, discount rate and royalty rate. The fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets is sensitive to differences between estimated and actual revenue, including changes in the discount rate and royalty rate used to evaluate the fair value of these assets. Although we believe our estimate of fair value is reasonable, the indefinite-lived intangible asset performance is dependent on our ability to execute our business plan. If our future financial performance falls below our expectations, or there are adverse revisions to significant assumptions, including projected revenues, discount rates or royalty rates, this could be indicative that the fair values of these indefinite-lived intangible assets has declined below their carrying values, and therefore we may need to record a material, non-cash impairment charge in a future period.

We assessed the period from October 31, 2024 to December 31, 2024 and determined there were no factors that caused us to change our conclusions.

For further information on goodwill and intangible assets, refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 11, Goodwill and Intangible Assets.

General and Product Liability and Other Litigation. We have recorded liabilities for both asserted and unasserted claims totaling $406 million and $438 million, including related legal fees expected to be incurred, for potential product liability and other tort claims, including asbestos claims, at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. General and product liability and other litigation liabilities are recorded based on management’s assessment that a loss arising from these matters is probable. If the loss can be reasonably estimated, we record the amount of the estimated loss. If the loss is estimated within a range and no point within the range is more probable than another, we record the minimum amount in the range. As additional

47


Table of Contents

information becomes available, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates are revised, if necessary. Loss ranges are based upon the specific facts of each claim or class of claims and are determined after review by counsel. Court rulings on our cases or similar cases may impact our assessment of the probability and our estimate of the loss, which may have an impact on our reported results of operations, financial position and liquidity. We record receivables for insurance recoveries related to our litigation claims when it is probable that we will receive reimbursement from the insurer. Specifically, we are a defendant in numerous lawsuits alleging various asbestos-related personal injuries purported to result from alleged exposure to asbestos in certain products previously manufactured by us or present in certain of our facilities. Typically, these lawsuits have been brought against multiple defendants in federal and state courts.

We periodically, and at least annually, update, using actuarial analyses, our existing reserves for pending claims, including a reasonable estimate of the liability associated with unasserted asbestos claims, and estimate our receivables from probable insurance recoveries. In determining the estimate of our asbestos liability, we evaluated claims over the next ten-year period. Due to the difficulties in making these estimates, analysis based on new data and/or changed circumstances arising in the future may result in an increase in the recorded obligation, and that increase may be significant. We had recorded gross liabilities for both asserted and unasserted asbestos claims, inclusive of defense costs, totaling $115 million and $120 million, respectively, at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

We maintain certain primary and excess insurance coverage under coverage-in-place agreements, and also have additional excess liability insurance with respect to asbestos liabilities. We record a receivable with respect to such policies when we determine that recovery is probable and we can reasonably estimate the amount of a particular recovery. This determination is based on consultation with our outside legal counsel and takes into consideration agreements with certain of our insurance carriers, the financial viability and legal obligations of our insurance carriers, and other relevant factors.

As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we recorded a receivable related to asbestos claims of $63 million and $66 million, respectively, and we expect that approximately 55% of asbestos claim related losses would be recoverable through insurance through the period covered by the estimated liability. Of this amount, $11 million and $10 million was included in Current Assets as part of Accounts Receivable at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The recorded receivable consists of an amount we expect to collect under coverage-in-place agreements with certain primary and excess insurance carriers as well as an amount we believe is probable of recovery from certain of our other excess insurance carriers. Although we believe these amounts are collectible under primary and certain excess policies today, future disputes with insurers could result in significant charges to operations.

Workers’ Compensation. We have recorded liabilities, on a discounted basis, of $158 million and $167 million for anticipated costs related to U.S. workers’ compensation claims at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The costs include an estimate of expected settlements on pending claims, defense costs and a provision for claims incurred but not reported. These estimates are based on our assessment of potential liability using an analysis of available information with respect to pending claims, historical experience and current cost trends. The amount of our ultimate liability in respect of these matters may differ from these estimates. We periodically, and at least annually, update our loss development factors based on actuarial analyses. The liability is discounted using the risk-free rate of return.

For further information on general and product liability and other litigation and workers’ compensation, refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 19, Commitments and Contingent Liabilities.

Deferred Tax Asset Valuation Allowances and Uncertain Income Tax Positions. At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, our valuation allowances on certain of our U.S. federal, state and local net deferred tax assets totaled $26 million and $22 million, respectively, and our valuation allowances on our foreign net deferred tax assets totaled approximately $1.2 billion.

We record a reduction to the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets by recording a valuation allowance if, based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not such assets will not be realized. The valuation of deferred tax assets requires judgment in assessing future profitability by year, including the impact of tax planning strategies, relative to the expiration dates, if any, of the assets.

We consider both positive and negative evidence when measuring the need for a valuation allowance. The weight given to the evidence is commensurate with the extent to which it may be objectively verified. Current and cumulative financial reporting results are a source of objectively verifiable information. We give operating results during the most recent three-year period a significant weight in our analysis. We perform scheduling exercises to determine if sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character exists in the periods required in order to realize our deferred tax assets with limited lives (such as tax loss carryforwards and tax credits) prior to their expiration. We also consider prudent tax planning strategies (including an assessment of their feasibility) to accelerate taxable income if required to utilize expiring deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance is not required to the extent that, in our judgment, positive evidence exists with a magnitude and duration sufficient to result in a conclusion that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets will be realized.

48


Table of Contents

At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had approximately $1.3 billion and $1.2 billion of U.S. federal, state and local net deferred tax assets, respectively, inclusive of valuation allowances totaling $26 million and $22 million, respectively, in each period, primarily for state tax loss carryforwards with limited lives. As of December 31, 2024, approximately $1.1 billion of these U.S. net deferred tax assets had unlimited lives and approximately $200 million had limited lives, including $24 million of foreign tax credits, and the majority do not start to expire until 2030. As of December 31, 2023, approximately $1.0 billion of these U.S. net deferred tax assets had unlimited lives and approximately $200 million had limited lives, including $22 million of foreign tax credits, and the majority do not start to expire until 2030. In the U.S., we have a cumulative loss for the three-year period ended December 31, 2024 primarily driven by non-recurring items such as rationalization charges, pension curtailments and settlements, one-time costs associated with the Goodyear Forward plan, and intangible asset impairments.

In assessing our ability to utilize our net deferred tax assets, we primarily considered objectively verifiable information, including the improvement of our U.S. operating results during 2024 as a result of lower raw material and transportation costs and benefits from the Goodyear Forward plan compared to 2023 as well as non-deductible interest and future royalty income from foreign subsidiaries. In addition, we considered our current forecasts of future profitability in assessing our ability to realize our deferred tax assets as well as the impact of tax planning strategies. These forecasts include the impact of recent trends and various macroeconomic factors such as the impact of raw material, transportation, labor and energy costs on our profitability. Our tax planning strategies include accelerating income on cross border transactions, including sales of inventory or raw materials to our subsidiaries, reducing U.S. interest expense by, for example, reducing intercompany loans through repatriating current year earnings of foreign subsidiaries, repatriation of certain foreign royalty income, and other financing transactions, all of which would increase our domestic profitability.

We believe our improvement in U.S. operating results for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, as well as forecasts of future profitability, provide us sufficient positive evidence to conclude that it is more likely than not that, at December 31, 2024, our U.S. net deferred tax assets will be fully utilized. However, macroeconomic factors such as raw material, transportation, potential tariff, labor and energy costs possess a high degree of volatility and can significantly impact our profitability. In addition, certain tax provisions, such as the annual interest expense limitation under Section 163(j) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, if amended, could impact our analysis of the realizability of our U.S. deferred tax assets. If our U.S. operating results significantly decline in the future, we may need to record a valuation allowance which could adversely impact our operating results. As such, we will closely monitor our U.S. operations as well as any tax law changes to assess the realizability of our U.S. deferred tax assets.

At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we also had approximately $1.5 billion of foreign net deferred tax assets and related valuation allowances of approximately $1.2 billion. Our losses in various foreign taxing jurisdictions in recent periods represented sufficient negative evidence to require us to maintain a full valuation allowance against certain of these net foreign deferred tax assets. Most notably, in Luxembourg, we maintain a valuation allowance of approximately $1.0 billion on all of our net deferred tax assets. Each reporting period, we assess available positive and negative evidence and estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize these existing deferred tax assets. We do not believe that sufficient positive evidence required to release valuation allowances on our foreign deferred tax assets having a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations will exist within the next twelve months.

We recognize the effects of changes in tax rates and laws on deferred tax balances in the period in which legislation is enacted. We remeasure existing deferred tax assets and liabilities considering the tax rates at which they will be realized. We also consider the effects of enacted tax laws in our analysis of the need for valuation allowances.

The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations, including those for transfer pricing. We recognize liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on our estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. If we ultimately determine that payment of these amounts is unnecessary, we reverse the liability and recognize a tax benefit during the period in which we determine that the liability is no longer necessary. We also recognize income tax benefits to the extent that it is more likely than not that our positions will be sustained when challenged by the taxing authorities. We derecognize income tax benefits when, based on new information, we determine that it is no longer more likely than not that our position will be sustained. To the extent we prevail in matters for which liabilities have been established, or determine we need to derecognize tax benefits recorded in prior periods, our results of operations and effective tax rate in a given period could be materially affected. An unfavorable tax settlement would require use of our cash, and lead to recognition of expense to the extent the settlement amount exceeds recorded liabilities, resulting in an increase in our effective tax rate in the period of resolution. To reduce our risk of an unfavorable transfer price settlement, we apply consistent transfer pricing policies and practices globally, support pricing with economic studies and seek advance pricing agreements and joint audits to the extent possible. A favorable tax settlement would be recognized as a reduction of expense to the extent the settlement amount is lower than recorded liabilities and, in the case of an income tax settlement, would result in a reduction in our effective tax rate in the period of resolution. We report interest and penalties related to uncertain income tax positions as income tax expense.

Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits. We have recorded liabilities for pensions of $138 million and $181 million and other postretirement benefits of $232 million and $287 million, respectively, at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Our recorded liabilities and net periodic costs for pensions and other postretirement benefits are based on a number of assumptions, including:

life expectancies,
retirement rates,
discount rates,
long term rates of return on plan assets,
inflation rates,
future health care costs, and
maximum company-covered benefit costs.

Certain of these assumptions are determined with the assistance of independent actuaries. Assumptions about life expectancies, retirement rates, future compensation levels and future health care costs are based on past experience and anticipated future trends. The discount rate for our U.S. plans is based on a yield curve derived from a portfolio of corporate bonds from issuers rated AA or higher by established rating agencies as of December 31 and is reviewed annually. Our expected benefit payment cash flows are discounted based on spot rates developed from the yield curve. The mortality assumption for our U.S. plans is based on actual historical experience or published actuarial tables, an assumed long term rate of future improvement based on published actuarial tables, and current government regulations related to lump sum payment factors. The long term rate of return on U.S. plan assets is based on estimates of future long term rates of return similar to the target allocation of substantially all fixed income securities. Actual U.S. pension fund asset allocations are reviewed on a monthly basis and the pension fund is rebalanced to target ranges on an as-needed basis. These assumptions are reviewed regularly and revised when appropriate. Changes in one or more of them may affect the amount of our recorded liabilities and net periodic costs for these benefits. Other assumptions involving demographic factors such as retirement age and turnover are evaluated periodically and are updated to reflect our experience and expectations for the future. If actual experience differs from expectations, our financial position, results of operations and liquidity in future periods may be affected.

The weighted average discount rate used in estimating the total liability for our U.S. pension and other postretirement benefit plans was 5.55% and 5.62%, respectively, at December 31, 2024, compared to 5.12% and 5.16%, respectively, at December 31, 2023. The increase in the discount rate at December 31, 2024 was due primarily to higher yields on highly rated corporate bonds. Interest cost included in our U.S. net periodic pension cost was $174 million in 2024, compared to $195 million in 2023. Interest cost included in our global net periodic other postretirement benefits cost was $15 million in 2024, compared to $16 million in 2023.

The following table presents the sensitivity of our U.S. projected pension benefit obligation and accumulated other postretirement benefits obligation to the indicated increase/decrease in the discount rate:

Changes in general interest rates and corporate (AA or better) credit spreads impact our discount rate and thereby our U.S. pension benefit obligation. Our U.S. pension plans are invested in a portfolio of substantially all fixed income securities designed to offset the impact of future discount rate movements on liabilities for these plans. If corporate (AA or better) interest rates increase or decrease in parallel (i.e., across all maturities), the investment portfolio described above is designed to mitigate a substantial portion of the expected change in our U.S. pension benefit obligation. For example, if corporate (AA or better) interest rates increased or decreased by 0.5%, the investment portfolio described above would be expected to mitigate approximately 95% of the expected change in our U.S. pension benefit obligation.

At December 31, 2024, our net actuarial loss included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss ("AOCL") related to global pension plans was $2,182 million, $1,690 million of which related to our U.S. pension plans. The net actuarial loss included in AOCL related to our U.S. pension plans continues to decrease and is primarily due to declines in U.S. discount rates and plan asset losses that occurred prior to the funding and investment de-risking actions we undertook in 2013 and 2014, which were

50


Table of Contents

designed to mitigate further actuarial losses of a similar nature. For purposes of determining our 2024 U.S. pension total benefits cost, we recognized $94 million of the net actuarial losses in 2024. We will recognize approximately $100 million of net actuarial losses in 2025 U.S. net periodic pension cost. If our future experience is consistent with our assumptions as of December 31, 2024, actuarial loss recognition over the next few years will remain at an amount near that to be recognized in 2025 before it begins to gradually decline. In addition, if annual lump sum payments from a pension plan exceed annual service and interest cost for that plan, accelerated recognition of net actuarial losses will be required through a settlement in total benefits cost.

The actual rate of return on our U.S. pension fund was 1.70%, 7.90% and (17.00)% in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, as compared to the expected rate of 5.95%, 6.27% and 4.23% in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We use the fair value of our pension assets in the calculation of pension expense for all of our U.S. pension plans.

The weighted average amortization period for our U.S. pension plans is approximately 14 years.

Service cost of pension plans was recorded in CGS, as part of the cost of inventory sold during the period, or SAG in our Consolidated Statements of Operations, based on the specific roles (i.e., manufacturing vs. non-manufacturing) of employee groups covered by each of our pension plans. In 2024, 2023 and 2022, the amount of service cost included in CGS and SAG is approximately equal. Non-service related net periodic pension costs were recorded in Other (Income) Expense.

Globally, we expect our 2025 net periodic pension cost to be $100 million to $120 million, including approximately $20 million of service cost, compared to $125 million in 2024, which included $26 million of service cost.

The net actuarial gain of $86 million included in AOCL for our global other postretirement benefit plans as of December 31, 2024 is a result of past increases in discount rates. For purposes of determining 2024 global net periodic other postretirement benefits cost, we recognized $9 million of net actuarial gains in 2024. We will recognize approximately $8 million of net actuarial gains in 2025. If our future experience is consistent with our assumptions as of December 31, 2024, actuarial gain recognition over the next few years will remain at an amount near that to be recognized in 2025.

Such statements are based on current expectations and assumptions, are inherently uncertain, are subject to risks and should be viewed with caution. Actual results and experience may differ materially from the forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including:

if we do not successfully implement the Goodyear Forward plan and our other strategic initiatives, including the sales of our OTR tire business, the Dunlop brand and our chemical businesses, our operating results, financial condition and liquidity may be materially adversely affected;
we may not be able to consummate the sale of the Dunlop brand on a timely basis or at all, including failure to obtain the required regulatory approvals or to satisfy other conditions to closing;
we face significant global competition and our market share could decline;
raw material cost increases may materially adversely affect our operating results and financial condition;
we have experienced inflationary cost pressures, including with respect to wages, benefits and energy costs, that may materially adversely affect our operating results and financial condition;
delays or disruptions in our supply chain or in the provision of services, including utilities, to us could result in increased costs or disruptions in our operations;
a prolonged economic downturn or economic uncertainty could adversely affect our business and results of operations;
deteriorating economic conditions in any of our major markets, or an inability to access capital markets or third-party financing when necessary, may materially adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and liquidity;

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITAT IVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

We utilize derivative financial instrument contracts and nonderivative instruments to manage interest rate, foreign exchange and commodity price risks. We have established a control environment that includes policies and procedures for risk assessment and the approval, reporting and monitoring of derivative financial instrument activities. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

Commodity Price Risk

The raw materials costs to which our operations are principally exposed include the cost of natural rubber, synthetic rubber, carbon black, fabrics, steel cord and other petrochemical-based commodities. Approximately two-thirds of our raw materials are petroleum-based, the cost of which may be affected by fluctuations in the price of oil. We currently do not hedge commodity prices. We do, however, use various strategies to partially offset cost increases for raw materials, including centralizing purchases of raw materials through our global procurement organization in an effort to leverage our purchasing power, expanding our capabilities to substitute lower cost raw materials, and reducing the amount of material required in each tire.

Interest Rate Risk

We continuously monitor our fixed and floating rate debt mix. Within defined limitations, we manage the mix using refinancing. At December 31, 2024, 25% of our debt was at variable interest rates averaging 9.23% compared to 20% at an average rate of 8.09% at December 31, 2023.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We enter into foreign currency contracts in order to reduce the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on our consolidated results of operations and future foreign currency-denominated cash flows. These contracts reduce exposure to currency movements affecting existing foreign currency-denominated assets, liabilities, firm commitments and forecasted transactions resulting primarily from trade purchases and sales, equipment acquisitions, intercompany loans and royalty agreements. Contracts hedging short term trade receivables and payables normally have no hedging designation.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with appropriate authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management conducted an assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 using the framework specified in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) , published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on such assessment, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2024.

The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGIS TERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the consolidated financial statements, including the related notes and financial statement schedule, of The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as listed in the index appearing under Item 8 (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.

Basis for Opinions

The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or

57


Table of Contents

complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Income Taxes - Valuation of U.S. Deferred Tax Assets

As described in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements, as of December 31, 2024, the Company has approximately $1.3 billion of U.S. federal, state and local net deferred tax assets, inclusive of valuation allowances totaling $26 million primarily for state tax loss carryforwards with limited lives. Approximately $200 million of these U.S. net deferred tax assets have limited lives and the majority of the limited lived deferred tax assets do not start to expire until 2030. A valuation allowance is not required to the extent that, in management’s judgment, positive evidence exists with a magnitude and duration sufficient to result in a conclusion that it is more likely than not the Company’s deferred tax assets will be realized. As disclosed by management, the valuation of deferred tax assets requires judgment in assessing future profitability, including the impact of tax planning strategies, relative to the expiration dates, if any, of the assets. In the U.S., the Company has a cumulative loss for the three-year period ended December 31, 2024. In assessing the Company’s ability to utilize its net deferred tax assets, management primarily considered other objectively verifiable information, including the Company’s improvement in its U.S. operating results during 2024 as a result of lower raw material and transportation costs and benefits from the Goodyear Forward plan compared to 2023 as well as non-deductible interest and future royalty income from foreign subsidiaries. Management determined there was sufficient positive evidence to conclude it is more likely than not that, as of December 31, 2024, the U.S. net deferred tax assets will be fully utilized.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of U.S. deferred tax assets is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management in determining whether the U.S. deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized in the future and (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence relating to management’s assessment of the realizability of U.S. deferred tax assets.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s assessment of the realizability of U.S. deferred tax assets, including controls over projections of future profitability. These procedures also included, among others (i) evaluating the positive and negative evidence available to support management’s assessment of the realizability of U.S. deferred tax assets; (ii) testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in management’s assessment; and (iii) evaluating the reasonableness of management’s projections of future profitability of the U.S. business. Evaluating the reasonableness of management’s projections of future profitability of the U.S. business involved considering (i) the current and past performance of the U.S. business; (ii) the consistency with external market and industry data; and (iii) the consistency with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit.

Interim Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Asset Impairment Assessments – North America Reporting Unit and a Certain Indefinite-Lived Intangible Asset

As described in Notes 1 and 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets balances were $756 million and $549 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2024, of which a majority of the goodwill balance relates to the North America reporting unit and a majority of the indefinite-lived intangible assets balance relates to a certain indefinite-lived intangible asset. As disclosed by management, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are assessed for impairment annually on October 31st with the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary or to perform a quantitative assessment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit or indefinite-lived intangible asset to its carrying value. In addition to the annual assessment, impairment evaluation is considered during interim periods when events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the asset below its carrying value. During the third quarter of 2024, the Company experienced a decline in market capitalization. Management viewed this as a triggering event and performed a quantitative analysis of the fair value of the North America reporting unit, which resulted in an estimated fair value that exceeded its carrying value, including goodwill. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2024, the Company experienced a decline in volumes primarily in certain indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the acquisition of Cooper Tire. Management viewed this as a triggering event and performed a quantitative analysis of the fair value of certain indefinite-lived intangible assets, which resulted in a non-cash impairment charge of $125 million. The fair value of the North America reporting unit was estimated by management based on discounted cash flow projections, and the most critical assumptions used in the calculation of the fair value of the North America reporting unit are the projected revenue, projected operating margin, and discount rate. The fair value of certain indefinite-lived intangible assets was estimated by management using the relief-from-royalty method, and the most critical assumptions used in the calculation of the fair value of certain indefinite-lived intangible assets are the projected revenue, discount rate, and royalty rate.

58


Table of Contents

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the interim goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment assessments of the North America reporting unit and a certain indefinite-lived intangible asset is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value estimates of the North America reporting unit and a certain indefinite-lived intangible asset; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to (a) the projected revenue, projected operating margin, and discount rate for the North America reporting unit, and (b) the projected revenue, discount rate, and royalty rate for a certain indefinite-lived intangible asset; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s interim impairment assessments, including controls over the valuation of the North America reporting unit and a certain indefinite-lived intangible asset. These procedures also included, among others (i) testing management’s process for developing the fair value estimates of the North America reporting unit and a certain indefinite-lived intangible asset; (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of the discounted cash flow model and relief-from-royalty method used by management; (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the valuation methods; and (iv) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used by management related to (a) the projected revenue, projected operating margin, and discount rate for the North America reporting unit, and (b) the projected revenue, discount rate, and royalty rate for a certain indefinite-lived intangible asset. Evaluating management’s assumptions related to the projected revenue and projected operating margin for the North America reporting unit and the projected revenue for a certain indefinite-lived intangible asset involved evaluating whether the assumptions used by management were reasonable considering (i) the current and past performance of the Company’s business; (ii) the consistency with external market and industry data; and (iii) whether the assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating (i) the appropriateness of the discounted cash flow model and relief-from-royalty method and (ii) the reasonableness of the discount rate assumption for the North America reporting unit and the discount rate and royalty rate assumptions for a certain indefinite-lived intangible asset.

THE GOODYEAR TIRE & RUBBER COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Accounting Policies

A summary of the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows:

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Effective January 2024, we adopted an Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") to improve disclosures required for reportable segments, specifically related to significant segment expenses. The adoption of this standards update did not impact our consolidated financial statements as it only provides for enhanced disclosures. Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 8, Business Segments.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

On December 14, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a final ASU to improve income tax disclosures. The new standard requires enhanced disclosures primarily related to existing rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information and improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and requiring income taxes paid to be disaggregated by jurisdiction. It also includes certain amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The standards update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently assessing the impact of this standards update on our disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued a final ASU to require disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses. This new standard requires certain expense categories, including selling expenses, to be disaggregated in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The standards update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. We are currently assessing the impact of this standards update on our disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Acquisitions

We include the results of operations of the businesses in which we acquire a controlling financial interest in our consolidated financial statements beginning as of the acquisition date. On the acquisition date, we recognize, separate from goodwill, the assets acquired, including separately identifiable intangible assets, and the liabilities assumed at their fair values. The excess of the consideration transferred over the fair values assigned to the net identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired business is recognized as goodwill. Transaction costs are recognized separately from the acquisition and are expensed as incurred.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all legal entities in which we hold a controlling financial interest. A controlling financial interest generally arises from our ownership of a majority of the voting shares of our subsidiaries. We would also hold a controlling financial interest in variable interest entities if we are considered to be the primary beneficiary. Investments in companies in which we do not own a majority interest and we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in other companies are carried at cost. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and related notes to the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates, including those related to:

goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets,
general and product liabilities and other litigation,
workers’ compensation,

67


Table of Contents

deferred tax asset valuation allowances and uncertain income tax positions,
rationalization plans,
pension and other postretirement benefits, and
various other operating allowances and accruals, based on currently available information.

Changes in facts and circumstances may alter such estimates and affect results of operations and financial position in future periods.

Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable Valuation

Sales are recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied and control is transferred. This generally occurs with shipment or delivery, depending on the terms of the underlying contract, or when services have been rendered. Sales are measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. The amount of consideration we receive and sales we recognize can vary due to changes in sales incentives, rebates, rights of return or other items we offer our customers, for which we estimate the expected amounts based on an analysis of historical experience, or as the most likely amount in a range of possible outcomes. Payment terms with customers vary by region and customer, but are generally 30 - 90 days or at the point of sale for our consumer retail locations. Net sales exclude sales, value added and other taxes. Costs to obtain contracts are generally expensed as incurred due to the short term nature of individual contracts. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense as incurred. We have elected to recognize the costs incurred for transportation of products to customers as a component of Cost of Goods Sold ("CGS").

Appropriate provisions are made for uncollectible accounts based on historical loss experience, portfolio duration, economic conditions and credit risk, considering both expected future losses as well as current incurred losses. The adequacy of the allowances are assessed quarterly.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs include, among other things, materials, equipment, compensation and contract services. These costs are expensed as incurred and included as a component of CGS. Research and development expenditures were $ 426 m illion , $ 461 million and $ 501 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Warranty

Warranties are provided on the sale of certain of our products and services and an accrual for estimated future claims is recorded at the time revenue is recognized. Tire replacement under most of the warranties we offer is on a prorated basis. Warranty reserves are based on past claims experience, sales history and other considerations. Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 19, Commitments and Contingent Liabilities.

Environmental Cleanup Matters

We expense environmental costs related to existing conditions resulting from past or current operations and from which no current or future benefit is discernible. Expenditures that extend the life of the related property or mitigate or prevent future environmental contamination are capitalized. We determine our liability on a site by site basis and record a liability at the time when it is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Our estimated liability is reduced to reflect the anticipated participation of other potentially responsible parties in those instances where it is probable that such parties are legally responsible and financially capable of paying their respective share of the relevant costs. Our estimated liability is not discounted or reduced for possible recoveries from insurance carriers. Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 19, Commitments and Contingent Liabilities.

Legal Costs

We record a liability for estimated legal and defense costs related to pending general and product liability claims, environmental matters and workers’ compensation claims. Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 19, Commitments and Contingent Liabilities.

Advertising Costs

Costs incurred for producing and communicating advertising are generally expensed when incurred as a component of Selling, Administrative and General Expense ("SAG"). Costs incurred under our cooperative advertising programs with dealers and franchisees are generally recorded as reductions of sales as related revenues are recognized. Advertising costs, including costs for our cooperative advertising programs with dealers and franchisees, were $ 327 mill ion, $ 364 million and $ 375 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

68


Table of Contents

Rationalizations

We record costs for rationalization actions implemented to reduce excess and high-cost manufacturing capacity and operating and administrative costs. Associate-related costs include severance, supplemental unemployment compensation and benefits, medical benefits, pension curtailments, postretirement benefits, and other termination benefits. For ongoing benefit arrangements, a liability is recognized when it is probable that employees will be entitled to benefits and the amount can be reasonably estimated. For one-time benefit arrangements, a liability is incurred and must be accrued at the date the plan is communicated to employees, unless they will be retained beyond a minimum retention period. In this case, the liability is calculated at the date the plan is communicated to employees and is accrued ratably over the future service period. For voluntary benefit arrangements, a liability is not estimable and is not recognized until eligible associates apply for the benefit and we accept the applications. Other costs generally include contract termination and relocation costs. A liability for these costs is recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred. Rationalization actions related to accelerated depreciation or amortization, asset impairments, and non-cancelable leases, are recorded in CGS or SAG. Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 3, Costs Associated with Rationalization Programs.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are recognized during the year in which transactions enter into the determination of financial statement income, with deferred taxes being provided for temporary differences between carrying values of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and such carrying values as measured under applicable tax laws. The effect on deferred tax assets or liabilities of a change in the tax law or tax rate is recognized in the period the change is enacted. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce net deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. The calculation of our tax liabilities also involves considering uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. We recognize liabilities for uncertain income tax positions based on our estimate of whether it is more likely than not that additional taxes will be required and we report related interest and penalties as income taxes. To the extent that we incur expense under global intangible low-taxed income provisions, we will treat it as a component of income tax expense in the period incurred. Our policy is to utilize an item-by-item approach to release stranded income tax effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss ("AOCL"). Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 6, Income Taxes.

Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale

Assets and liabilities are classified as held for sale when management approves and commits to a formal plan to actively market the assets for sale at a price reasonable in relation to their estimated fair value, the assets are available for immediate sale in their present condition, an active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the sale have been initiated, the sale of the assets is probable and expected to be completed within one year, and it is unlikely that significant changes will be made to the plan. When all of these criteria have been met, the assets and liabilities are classified as held for sale in the balance sheet. Assets classified as held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Depreciation of assets ceases upon designation as held for sale. At December 31, 2024, assets classified as held for sale of $ 466 million were included within Assets Held for Sale and liabilities classified as held for sale of $ 51 million were included in Other Current Liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 22, Subsequent Events.

Cash and Cash Equivalents / Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows / Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and marketable securities with original maturities of three months or less. Substantially all of our cash and short-term investment securities are held with investment grade rated counterparties. At December 31, 2024, our cash investments with any single counterparty did not exceed approximate ly $ 145 mill ion.

Cash flows associated with derivative financial instruments designated as hedges of identifiable transactions or events are classified in the same category as the cash flows from the related hedged items. Cash flows associated with derivative financial instruments not designated as hedges are classified as operating activities. Bank overdrafts, if any, are recorded within Notes Payable and Overdrafts. Cash flows associated with bank overdrafts are classified as financing activities.

Customer prepayments for products and government grants received that predominately relate to operations are reported as operating activities. Government grants received that are predominately related to capital expenditures are reported as investing activities. The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows are presented net of finance leases o f $ 8 m illion, $ 19 million and $ 25 million originating in the year s ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Cash flows from investing activities in 2024 exclud e $ 302 millio n of accrued capital expenditures remaining unpaid at December 31, 2024, and include payment for $ 348 million of capital expenditures that were accrued and unpaid at December 31, 2023. Cash flows from investing activities in 2023 exclude $ 348 million of accrued capital expenditures re maining unpaid at December 31, 2023, and include payment for $ 324 million of capital expenditures that were accrued and unpaid at December 31, 2022. Cash flows from investing activities in 2022 exclude $ 324 million o f accrued capital expenditures remaining unpaid at December 31, 2022, and include payment for $ 257 million of capital expenditures that were accrued and unpaid at December 31, 2021.

Restricted Cash primarily represents amounts required to be set aside for accounts receivable factoring programs. The restrictions lapse when cash from factored accounts receivable is remitted to the purchaser of those receivables. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, $ 54 million and $ 83 million was recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively.

Restricted Net Assets

In certain countries where we operate, transfers of funds into or out of such countries by way of dividends, loans or advances are generally or periodically subject to various governmental regulations. In addition, certain of our credit agreements and other debt instruments limit the ability of foreign subsidiaries to make cash distributions. At December 31, 2024, approximate ly $ 790 million of net assets were subject to such regulations or limitations.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out or the average cost method. Costs include direct material, direct labor and applicable manufacturing and engineering overhead. We allocate fixed manufacturing overheads based on normal production capacity and recognize abnormal manufacturing costs as period costs. We determine a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based on management’s review of inventories on hand compared to estimated future usage and sales. Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 10, Inventories.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is recorded when the cost of acquired businesses exceeds the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized but are assessed for impairment annually with the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary or to perform a quantitative assessment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit or indefinite-lived intangible to its carrying amount. Under the qualitative assessment, an entity is not required to calculate the fair value unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying amount. If under the quantitative assessment the fair value is less than the carrying amount, then an impairment loss will be recorded for the difference between the carrying value and the fair value.

In addition to annual testing, impairment testing is conducted when events occur or circumstances change, including the macroeconomic environment, our business performance or our market capitalization, that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the asset below its carrying amount. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives would be written down to fair value if considered impaired. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized to their estimated residual values over such finite lives, and reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances warrant such a review. Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 11, Goodwill and Intangible Assets.

Insurance Claims

We maintain third-party insurance coverage for property damage, repair expenses and business interruption, which is partially self-insured, subject to a $ 50 million deductible per occurrence. After consultation with our legal counsel and giving consideration to agreements with certain of our insurance carriers, the financial viability and legal obligations of our insurance carriers and other relevant factors, we determine an amount we expect is probable of recovery from such carriers. We record a receivable for property damage and repair expenses as incurred. For business interruption recoveries, we do not record a receivable until the claim is substantially complete.

Investments

Investments in marketable securities are stated at fair value. Fair value is determined using quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period and, when appropriate, exchange rates at that date. Unrealized gains and losses on marketable equity securities are recorded in earnings. Unrealized gains and losses on marketable debt securities classified as available-for-sale are recorded in AOCL, net of tax. Our investments in TireHub, LLC (“TireHub”), a distribution joint venture in the U.S., and ACTR Company Limited ("ACTR"), a tire manufacturing joint venture in Vietnam, are accounted for under the equity method.

Table of Contents

We regularly review our investments to determine whether a decline in fair value below their recorded amount is other than temporary. If the decline in fair value is judged to be other than temporary, the investment is written down to fair value and the amount of the write-down is included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Refer to Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 12, Other Assets and Investments, No. 16, Fair Value Measurements, and No. 21, Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Additions and improvements that substantially extend the useful life of property, plant and equipment, and interest costs incurred during the construction period of major projects are capitalized. Government grants to us that are predominately related to capital expenditures are recorded as reductions of the cost of the associated assets. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Property, plant and equipment are depreciated to their estimated residual values over their estimated useful lives, and reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances warrant such a review. Depreciation expense for property, plant and equipment was $ 1,011 mill ion, $ 967 million and $ 928 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Refer to Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 4, Interest Expense, and No. 13, Property, Plant and Equipment.

Leases

We determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. We enter into leases primarily for our distribution facilities, manufacturing equipment, administrative offices, retail stores, vehicles and data processing equipment under varying terms and conditions. Our leases have remaining lease terms of less than 1 year to approximately 50 years. Most of our leases include options to extend the lease, with renewal terms ranging fro m 1 to 50 years or more, an d some include options to terminate the lease within 1 year. If it is reasonably certain that an option to extend or terminate a lease will be exercised, that option is considered in the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet, and we recognize short-term lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Certain of our lease agreements include variable lease payments, generally based on consumer price indices. Variable lease payments that are assigned to an index are determined based on the initial index at commencement, and the variability based on changes in the index is accounted for as it changes. The variable portion of payments is not included in the initial measurement of the right-of-use asset or lease liability due to the uncertainty of the payment amount and are recorded as lease expense in the period incurred. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for separately.

Operating leases are included in Operating Lease Right-of-Use (“ROU”) Assets, Operating Lease Liabilities due Within One Year and Operating Lease Liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Finance leases are included in Property, Plant and Equipment, Long Term Debt and Finance Leases due Within One Year, and Long Term Debt and Finance Leases on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Generally, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments, unless there is a rate stated in the lease agreement. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 14, Leases.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency for most subsidiaries outside the United States is the local currency. Financial statements of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at each balance sheet date for assets and liabilities and a weighted average exchange rate for each period for revenues, expenses, gains and losses. The U.S. dollar is used as the functional currency in countries with a history of high inflation and in countries that predominantly sell into the U.S. dollar export market. For all operations, gains or losses from remeasuring foreign currency transactions into the functional currency are included in Other (Income) Expense. Translation adjustments are recorded in AOCL. Income taxes are generally not provided for foreign currency translation adjustments.

Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

To qualify for hedge accounting, hedging instruments must be designated as hedges and meet defined correlation and effectiveness criteria. These criteria require that the anticipated cash flows and/or changes in fair value of the hedging instrument substantially offset those of the position being hedged.

Derivative contracts are reported at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as Accounts Receivable, Other Assets, Other Current Liabilities or Other Long Term Liabilities. Deferred gains and losses on contracts designated as cash flow hedges are recorded net of tax in AOCL.

71


Table of Contents

Interest Rate Contracts — Gains and losses on contracts designated as cash flow hedges are initially deferred and recorded in AOCL. Amounts are transferred from AOCL and recognized in income as Interest Expense in the same period that the hedged item is recognized in income. Gains and losses on contracts designated as fair value hedges are recognized in income in the current period as Interest Expense. Gains and losses on contracts with no hedging designation are recorded in the current period in Other (Income) Expense.

Foreign Currency Contracts — Gains and losses on contracts designated as cash flow hedges are initially deferred and recorded in AOCL. Amounts are transferred from AOCL and recognized in income in the same period and on the same line that the hedged item is recognized in income. Gains and losses on contracts designated as fair value hedges, excluding premiums and discounts, are recorded in Other (Income) Expense in the current period. Gains and losses on contracts with no hedging designation are also recorded in Other (Income) Expense in the current period. We do not include premiums or discounts on forward currency contracts in our assessment of hedge effectiveness. Premiums and discounts on contracts designated as hedges are recorded in AOCL. The amounts are recognized in the Statement of Operations on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract on the same line that the hedged item is recognized in the Statement of Operations.

Net Investment Hedging — Nonderivative instruments denominated in foreign currencies are used from time to time to hedge net investments in foreign subsidiaries. Gains and losses on these instruments are deferred and recorded in AOCL as Foreign Currency Translation Adjustments. These gains and losses are only recognized in income upon the complete or partial sale of the related investment or the complete liquidation of the investment.

Termination of Contracts — Gains and losses (including deferred gains and losses in AOCL) are recognized in Other (Income) Expense when contracts are terminated concurrently with the termination of the hedged position. To the extent that such position remains outstanding, gains and losses are amortized to Interest Expense or to Other (Income) Expense over the remaining life of that position. Gains and losses on contracts that we temporarily continue to hold after the early termination of a hedged position, or that otherwise no longer qualify for hedge accounting, are recognized in Other (Income) Expense. Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 15, Financing Arrangements and Derivative Financial Instruments.

Stock-Based Compensation

We measure compensation cost arising from the grant of stock-based awards to employees at fair value and recognize such cost in income over the period during which the service is provided, usually the vesting period. We recognize compensation expense using the straight-line approach.

Stock-based awards to employees include grants of performance share units, restricted stock units and stock options. We measure the fair value of grants of performance share units and restricted stock units based primarily on the closing market price of a share of our common stock on the date of the grant, modified as appropriate to take into account the features of such grants.

We estimate the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Assumptions used to estimate compensation expense are determined as follows:

Expected term represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding based on our historical experience of option exercises;
Expected volatility is measured using the weighted average of historical daily changes in the market price of our common stock over the expected term of the award and implied volatility calculated for our exchange traded options with an expiration date greater than one year;
Risk-free interest rate is equivalent to the implied yield on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bonds with a remaining maturity equal to the expected term of the awards; and
Forfeitures are based substantially on the history of cancellations of similar awards granted in prior years.

Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 18, Stock Compensation Plans.

Earnings Per Share of Common Stock

Basic earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share primarily reflects the dilutive impact of outstanding stock options and other stock based awards. All earnings per share amounts in these notes to the consolidated financial statements are diluted, unless otherwise noted. Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 7, Earnings Per Share.

Fair Value Measurements

Valuation Hierarchy

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified using the following hierarchy, which is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation as of the measurement date.

Level 1 — Valuation is based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 — Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 — Valuation is based upon other unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement.

The classification of fair value measurements within the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement. Valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value are as follows:

Investments

Where quoted prices are available in an active market, investments are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include highly liquid government bonds, certain mortgage products and exchange-traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are estimated using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the security, and would be classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities would be classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Exchange-traded derivative financial instruments that are valued using quoted prices would be classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Derivative financial instruments valued using internally-developed models that use as their basis readily observable market parameters are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Derivative financial instruments that are valued based upon models with significant unobservable market parameters, and that are normally traded less actively, would be classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. Refer to Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 15, Financing Arrangements and Derivative Financial Instruments, and No. 16, Fair Value Measurements.

Reclassifications and Adjustments

Certain items previously reported in specific financial statement captions have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Tire unit sales consist of consumer, commercial, farm and off-the-road tire sales, including the sale of new Company-branded tires through Company-owned retail channels. Other tire and related sales consist of aviation, race and motorcycle tire sales, retread sales and other tire related sales. Sales of tires in this category are not included in reported tire unit information. Retail services and service related sales consist of automotive services performed for customers through our Company-owned retail channels, and includes service related products. Chemical sales relate to the sale of synthetic rubber and other chemicals to third parties, and exclude intercompany sales. Other sales include items such as franchise fees and ancillary tire parts.

When we receive consideration from a customer prior to transferring goods or services under the terms of a sales contract, we record deferred revenue, which represents a contract liability. Deferred revenue included in Other Current Liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets totaled $ 13 million and $ 18 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Deferred revenue included in Other Long Term Liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets totale d $ 6 m illion and $ 10 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We recognize deferred revenue after we have transferred control of the goods or services to the customer and all revenue recognition criteria are met.

During the third quarter of 2024, as part of the Goodyear Forward plan, we approved two rationalization plans to reduce SAG and manufacturing costs, primarily in North America and Corporate functional areas. The plans include approximately 190 net headcount reductions as of December 31, 2024. Total pre-tax charges are expected to be $ 9 million, substantially all of which are expected to be cash charges primarily for associate-related costs. We have approximately $ 4 million accrued for these plans at December 31, 2024, which is expected to be substantially paid through the first and second quarters of 2025.

During the second quarter of 2024, we approved a rationalization plan to open a shared service center in Costa Rica and to exit certain Commercial Tire and Service Center (“CTSC”) locations. Total pre-tax charges are expected to be $ 28 million, of which $ 18 million are expected to be cash charges primarily for associate-related costs. Non-cash charges are expected to be $ 10 million, consisting of accelerated lease amortization and pension settlement costs. We have approximately $ 9 million accrued for this plan at December 31, 2024, which is expected to be substantially paid through the end of 2025.

During the first quarter of 2024, we approved a rationalization plan in Asia Pacific to permanently close our Malaysia tire manufacturing facility as part of our strategy to improve profitability and reduce production costs. Total pre-tax charges were expected to be approximately $ 40 million ($ 20 million after minority), of which approximately $ 16 million were expected to be cash charges primarily for associate-related and other exit costs, with the remainder representing non-cash charges primarily for accelerated depreciation. We have approximately $ 3 million accrued for this plan at December 31, 2024, which is expected to be substantially paid through the first quarter of 2025.

The remainder of the accrual balance at December 31, 2024 includes $ 258 million related to the closures of our Fulda, Germany ("Fulda") and our Fürstenwalde, Germany ("Fürstenwalde") tire manufacturing facilities, $ 94 million related to the rationalization and workforce reorganization plan in Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA"), which reflects $ 38 million of reversals due to voluntary attrition, $ 5 million related to plans to reduce SAG headcount, $ 5 million related to the closed Amiens, France tire manufacturing facility, $ 4 million related to a global workforce reorganization plan to improve our cost structure, $ 3 million related to the closure of Cooper Tire's Melksham, United Kingdom tire manufacturing facility ("Melksham"), $ 1 million related to the plan to improve profitability in Australia and New Zealand, $ 1 million related to the plan to streamline our EMEA distribution network, and various other plans to reduce headcount and improve operating efficiency.

At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , $ 296 million and $ 239 million were recorded in Other Current Liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively.

Ongoing rationalization plans had approximately $ 1,050 million in rationalization charges through 2024 and approximately $ 150 million is expected to be incurred in future periods.

Approximately 950 associates will be released under new plans initiated in 2024, of which approximately 750 were released through December 31, 2024. In 2024, approximately 1,100 associates were released under plans initiated in prior years. Approximately 2,350 associates remain to be released under all ongoing rationalization plans.

Rationalization activities initiated in 2023 include current year charges primarily related to the Goodyear Forward plan that resulted in the closure of certain retail and warehouse locations, primarily in the Americas, the rationalization and workforce reorganization plan in EMEA to improve our cost structure, the closures of our Fulda and Fürstenwalde tire manufacturing facilities and the plan to improve profitability in Australia and New Zealand. Net prior year plan charges recognized in the year ended December 31, 2023 incl ude $ 16 million related to the closure of Melksham, $ 9 million related to the integration of Cooper Tire, $ 6 million related to the permanent closure of Gadsden, $ 2 million related to a plan in South Africa, and $ 2 million related to discontinued operations in Russia. Net prior year plan charges also include reversals of $ 8 m illion for actions no longer needed for their originally intended purposes.

Rationalization activities initiated in 2022 include current year charges primarily related to a rationalization and workforce reorganization plan as well as the plan to close Melksham. Net prior year plan charges recognized in the year ended December 31, 2022 incl ude $ 15 m illion related to Gadsden, $ 7 million related to the modernization of two of our tire manufacturing facilities in Germany and $ 3 million for various plans to reduce global SAG headcount. Net prior year plan char ges also include reversals o f $ 9 million for actions no longer needed for their originally intended purposes.

Asset write-off and accelerated depreciation charges in 2024 primarily relate to plans to improve our cost structure through the announced closures of our Fulda, Fürstenwalde and Malaysia tire manufacturing facilities, as well as the closure of a development center and warehouse in the U.S. Asset write-off and accelerated depreciation charges for 2024 were primarily recorded in CGS.

Asset write-off and accelerated depreciation charges in 2023 primarily related to the integration of Cooper Tire, the closure of Melksham, and the facility closures in Germany, partially offset by recoveries of previously written-off accounts receivable and other assets in Russia. Asset write-off and accelerated depreciation charges for 2023 were primarily recorded in CGS.

Asset write-off and accelerated depreciation charges in 2022 primarily related to the discontinuation of our operations in Russia and a plan related to the integration of Cooper Tire. Asset write-off and accelerated depreciation charges for 2022 were primarily recorded in SAG.

Non-service related pension and other postretirement benefits cost consists primarily of the interest cost, expected return on plan assets and amortization components of net periodic cost, as well as curtailments and settlements which are not related to rationalization plans. Non-service related pension and other postretirement benefits cost includes a net pension settlement credit of $ 3 million in 2024 and net pension settlement and curtailment charges of $ 40 million and $ 124 million in 2023 and 2022, respectively. For further information, refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 17, Pension, Other Postretirement Benefits and Savings Plans.

Net foreign currency exchange (gains) losses include losses of $ 5 million, $ 80 million and $ 19 million related to the Argentine peso in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and a $ 13 million loss related to the Turkish lira in 2023.

Interest income includes interest income in Argentina of $ 6 million, $ 44 million and $ 17 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Net gains on asset sales in 2024 primarily relate to a gain of $ 80 million related to the sale of a distribution center in EMEA and a $ 14 million gain related to sale and leaseback transactions for warehouses in Americas. Cash proceeds for the sale and leaseback transaction in Americas totaled $ 16 million, which were received during the second quarter of 2024. Leaseback terms for this location include a 4-year initial term with one 5-year renewal option. We have determined that it is not probable that we will exercise the renewal option. This transaction resulted in the recognition of Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets totaling $ 6 million.

Net gains on asset sales in 2023 primarily relate to gains on sale and leaseback transactions of $ 88 million in Americas, resulting in $ 99 million of cash proceeds. Sale and leaseback transactions included the sale and leaseback of a warehouse in Americas in the second quarter of 2023 and a retail location in Americas in the fourth quarter of 2023. A $ 59 million gai n was recorded in the second quarter of 2023 related to the sale and leaseback transaction for the warehouse in Americas. Cash proceeds related to this transaction totaled $ 66 million. Leaseback terms for this location include a 5-year initial term with one 5-year renewal option. We have determined it is not probable that we will exercise this option. This transaction resulted in the recognition of Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets totaling $ 24 million. The sale and leaseback transaction in the fourth quarter of 2023 for the retail location in Americas resulted in a gain of $ 23 million. Cash proceeds related to this transaction totaled $ 24 million. Leaseback terms for this location include a 5-year initial term . This transaction resulted in the recognition of Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets totaling $ 7 million. The remainder of net gains on asset sales in 2023 primarily relate to the sale and exit of certain retail locations in Americas.

Net gains on asset sales in 2022 include a $ 95 million gain related to a sale and leaseback transaction of certain consumer and commercial retail locations in Americas. Cash proceeds related to this transaction totaled $ 108 million. Leaseback terms for all locations include a 15-year initial term with up to six 5-year renewal options . We determined at the inception of the leases that it was not probable that we would exercise any of the renewal options. The transaction resulted in the recognition of

Miscellaneous (income) expense in 2024 includes $ 19 million of transaction costs related to the sale of the OTR business and an $ 8 million loss related to the sale of receivables in Argentina. M iscellaneous (income) expense in 2023 includes non-indemnified costs for product liability claims related to products manufactured by a formerly consolidated joint venture entity totaling $ 31 million and a $ 10 million loss related to the sale of a receivable in Argentina, partially offset by $ 5 million of income for the write-off of accumulated foreign currency translation related to our exited business in Russia. Miscellaneous (income) expense in 2023 also includes $ 11 million of income related to a favorable court decision setting aside a previous unfavorable verdict on intellectual property-related legal claims. The impact of that verdict and other fees of $ 15 million was recorded in miscellaneous (income) expense in 2022.

Other (Income) Expense also includes financing fees and financial instruments expense, which consists of commitment fees and charges incurred in connection with financing transactions, primarily due to accounts receivable factoring programs; general and product liability expense - discontinued products, which consists of charges for claims against us related primarily to asbestos personal injury claims, net of probable insurance recoveries; and royalty income, which is derived primarily from licensing arrangements.

Table of Contents

Income tax expense in 2024 was $ 95 million on income before income taxes of $ 155 million. In 2024, income tax expense includes a net discrete tax benefit totaling $ 2 million.

In 2023, income tax expense was $ 10 million on a loss before income taxes of $ 677 million and includes net discrete tax benefits totaling $ 9 million, primarily related to additional prior year withholding tax creditable in the U.S. as a result of a tax law change.

In 2022, income tax expense was $ 190 million on income before income taxes of $ 399 million and includes net discrete tax expense totaling $ 23 million, including a charge of $ 14 million to write off deferred tax assets related to tax loss carryforwards in the U.K. and a charge of $ 11 million to establish a full valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets in Russia, partially offset by a net benefit of $ 2 million for various other items.

The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development ("OECD") have published the Pillar Two model rules which adopt a global corporate minimum tax of 15 % for multinational enterprises with average revenue in excess of € 750 million. Certain jurisdictions in which we operate enacted legislation consistent with one or more of the OECD Pillar Two model rules effective in 2024. The model rules include minimum domestic top-up taxes, income inclusion rules and undertaxed profit rules, all aimed to ensure that multinational corporations pay a minimum effective corporate tax rate of 15 % in each jurisdiction in which they operate. The Pillar Two model rules did not materially impact our annual effective tax rate in 2024. However, we are continuing to evaluate the Pillar Two model rules and related legislation and their potential impact on future periods.

We consider both positive and negative evidence when measuring the need for a valuation allowance. The weight given to the evidence is commensurate with the extent to which it may be objectively verified. Current and cumulative financial reporting results are a source of objectively verifiable information. We give operating results during the most recent three-year period a significant weight in our analysis. We perform scheduling exercises to determine if sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character exists in the periods required in order to realize our deferred tax assets with limited lives (such as tax loss carryforwards and tax credits) prior to their expiration. We also consider prudent tax planning strategies (including an assessment of their feasibility) to accelerate taxable income if required to utilize expiring deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance is not required to the extent that, in our judgment, positive evidence exists with a magnitude and duration sufficient to result in a conclusion that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets will be realized.

At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had approximately $ 1.3 billion and $ 1.2 billion of U.S. federal, state and local net deferred tax assets, respectively, inclusive of valuation allowances totaling $ 26 million and $ 22 million, respectively, in each period, primarily for state tax loss carryforwards with limited lives. As of December 31, 2024, approximately $ 1.1 billion of these U.S. net deferred tax assets had unlimited lives and approximately $ 200 million had limited lives, including $ 24 million of foreign tax credits, and the majority do not start to expire until 2030. As of December 31, 2023, approximately $ 1.0 billion of these U.S. net deferred tax assets had unlimited lives and approximately $ 200 million had limited lives, including $ 22 million of foreign tax credits, and the majority do not start to expire until 2030. In the U.S., we have a cumulative loss for the three-year period ended December 31, 2024 primarily driven by non-recurring items such as rationalization charges, pension curtailments and settlements, one-time costs associated with the Goodyear Forward plan, and intangible asset impairments.

In assessing our ability to utilize our net deferred tax assets, we primarily considered objectively verifiable information, including the improvement of our U.S. operating results during 2024 as a result of lower raw material and transportation costs and benefits from the Goodyear Forward plan compared to 2023 as well as non-deductible interest and future royalty income from foreign subsidiaries. In addition, we considered our current forecasts of future profitability in assessing our ability to realize our deferred tax assets as well as the impact of tax planning strategies. These forecasts include the impact of recent trends and various macroeconomic factors such as the impact of raw material, transportation, labor and energy costs on our profitability. Our tax planning strategies include accelerating income on cross border transactions, including sales of inventory or raw materials to our subsidiaries, reducing U.S. interest expense by, for example, reducing intercompany loans through repatriating current year earnings of foreign subsidiaries, repatriation of certain foreign royalty income, and other financing transactions, all of which would increase our domestic profitability.

We believe our improvement in U.S. operating results for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, as well as forecasts of future profitability, provide us sufficient positive evidence to conclude that it is more likely than not that, at December 31, 2024, our U.S. net deferred tax assets will be fully utilized. However, macroeconomic factors such as raw material, transportation, potential tariff, labor and energy costs possess a high degree of volatility and can significantly impact our profitability. In addition, certain tax provisions, such as the annual interest expense limitation under Section 163(j) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, if amended, could impact our analysis of the realizability of our U.S. deferred tax assets. If our U.S. operating results significantly decline in the future, we may need to record a valuation allowance which could adversely impact our operating results. As such, we will closely monitor our U.S. operations as well as any tax law changes to assess the realizability of our U.S. deferred tax assets.

Table of Contents

At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we also had approximately $ 1.5 billion of foreign net deferred tax assets and related valuation allowances of approximately $ 1.2 billion. Our losses in various foreign taxing jurisdictions in recent periods represented sufficient negative evidence to require us to maintain a full valuation allowance against certain of these net foreign deferred tax assets. Most notably, in Luxembourg, we maintain a valuation allowance of approximately $ 1.0 billion on all of our net deferred tax assets. Each reporting period, we assess available positive and negative evidence and estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize these existing deferred tax assets. We do not believe that sufficient positive evidence required to release valuation allowances on our foreign deferred tax assets having a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations will exist within the next twelve months.

At December 31, 2024, we had $ 960 million of tax assets for net operating loss, capital loss and tax credit carryforwards related to certain foreign subsidiaries. These carryforwards are primarily from countries with unlimited carryforward periods, but include $ 73 million of tax credit carryforwards in various European countries that are subject to expiration from 2025 to 2034 . A valuation allowance totaling $ 1,226 million has been recorded against these and other deferred tax assets where recovery of the asset or carryforward is uncertain. In addition, we had $ 217 million of federal and $ 56 million of state tax assets, primarily for net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The federal carryforwards include $ 25 million of foreign tax credits that are subject to expiration from 2028 to 2034 and $ 141 million of tax assets related to research and development credits and other federal credits that are subject to expiration from 2030 to 2044 . The state carryforwards include $ 45 million that are subject to expiration from 2025 to 2044 . A valuation allowance of $ 26 million has been recorded against federal and state deferred tax assets where recovery is uncertain.

At December 31, 2024, we had unrecognized tax benefits of $ 98 million that, if recognized, would have a favorable impact on our tax expense of $ 60 million. We had accrued interest of $ 1 million as of December 31, 2024. If not favorably settled, $ 24 million of the unrecognized tax benefits and all the accrued interest would require the use of our cash. We do not expect changes during 2024 to our unrecognized tax benefits to have a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations.

We are open to examination in the U.S. for 2021 and in Germany from 2018 onward. Generally, for our remaining tax jurisdictions, years from 2019 onward are still open to examination.

We have undistributed earnings and profits of our foreign subsid iaries totaling approximately $ 2.7 billion at December 31, 2024. We have concluded that no provision for tax in the U.S. is required because substantially all of the remaining undistributed earnings and profits have been or will be reinvested in property, plant and equipment and working capital outside of the U.S. A foreign withholding tax charge would be required if these earnings and profits were distributed to the U.S. We estimate the foreign withholding tax charge to be approximately $ 100 million (net of foreign tax credits) using various assumptions. Future events, including changes in our business operations and tax law changes, could impact our current estimate.

Net cash payments for income taxes were $ 170 million, $ 200 million and $ 174 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Note 7. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are calculated to reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts were exercised or converted into common stock.

Weighted average shares outstanding — diluted for 2024 excludes approximately 1 million equivalent shares related to options with exercise prices greater than the average market price of our common shares (i.e., "underwater" options). There were approximately 2 million equivalent shares related to underwater options for 2023 and 2022, respectively. Weighted average shares outstanding — diluted for 2023 also excludes approximately 2 million shares, related primarily to options with exercise prices less than the average market price of our common shares (i.e., "in-the-money" options) and unvested restricted stock units, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive due to the Goodyear net loss.

Note 8. Business Segments

Segment information reflects our strategic business units (“SBUs”), which are organized to meet customer requirements and global competition. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we operated our business through three operating segments representing our regional tire businesses: Americas; Europe, Middle East and Africa; and Asia Pacific. Segment information is reported on the basis used for reporting to our Chief Executive Officer. Each of the three SBUs is involved in the development, manufacture, distribution and sale of tires. Certain of the SBUs also provide related products and services, which include retreads and automotive and commercial truck maintenance and repair services.

Americas manufactures and sells tires for automobiles, trucks, buses, earthmoving, mining and industrial equipment, aircraft, and for various other applications throughout North, Central and South America. Americas also provides related products and services, including retreaded tires, tread rubber, and automotive and commercial truck maintenance and repair services, as well as sells chemical and natural rubber products to our other business segments and to unaffiliated customers.

EMEA manufactures and sells tires for automobiles, trucks, buses, aircraft, motorcycles, and earthmoving, mining and industrial equipment throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa. EMEA also sells retreaded aviation tires, retreading and related services for commercial truck and earthmoving, mining and industrial equipment, and automotive maintenance and repair services.

Table of Contents

Asia Pacific manufactures and sells tires for automobiles, trucks, buses, aircraft, farm, and earthmoving, mining and industrial equipment throughout the Asia Pacific region. Asia Pacific also provides related products and services, including retreaded truck and aviation tires, tread rubber, and automotive maintenance and repair services.

Results of operations are measured based on net sales to unaffiliated customers and segment operating income. Each segment exports tires to other segments. The financial results of each segment exclude sales of tires exported to other segments, but include operating income derived from such transactions. Segment operating income is computed as follows: Net sales less CGS (excluding asset write-offs and accelerated depreciation charges) and SAG (including certain allocated corporate administrative expenses). Segment operating income also includes certain royalties and equity in earnings of most affiliates. Segment operating income does not include net rationalization charges, asset sales, goodwill and other asset impairment charges, and certain other items.

The chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM uses segment operating income to allocate resources (including employees, property, and financial or capital resources) for each segment predominantly in the annual budget and forecasting process. The CODM considers budget-to-actual variances on a monthly basis for the profit measure when making decisions about allocating capital and personnel to the segments. The CODM also uses segment operating income or loss for evaluating product pricing and to assess the performance for each segment by comparing the results and return on assets of each segment with one another and in the compensation of certain employees.

Intangible assets are primarily comprised of rights to use the Cooper and Dunlop brand names and related trademarks, Cooper Tire customer relationships, and certain other brand names and trademarks.

Amortization expense for intangible assets totale d $ 32 million in 2024, $ 33 million in 2023, and $ 35 million in 2022. We estimate that annual amortization expense related to intangible assets will be $ 31 m illion in 2025, and an average of $ 29 million in 2026 through 2029.

During the third quarter of 2024, we experienced a decline in our market capitalization as a result of a decrease in our stock price. Our stock price has a history of volatility, however, given the decrease was sustained throughout the quarter, we viewed this event as a triggering event and performed a quantitative analysis of the fair value of the North America reporting unit in our Americas segment as of September 30, 2024 which resulted in an estimated fair value that exceeded its carrying value, including goodwill.

As part of our annual goodwill impairment analysis as of October 31, 2024, we completed a quantitative impairment analysis at our North America and Asia Pacific reporting units to determine if their fair values were less than their carrying amounts.

86


Table of Contents

For both the interim and annual impairment analysis, we determined the estimated fair value for the reporting units based on their discounted cash flow projections. The most critical assumptions used in the calculation of the fair value of each reporting unit are the projected revenue, projected operating margin and discount rate. Based on the quantitative test, the fair values of the North America reporting unit had an estimated fair value that exceeded its carrying value, including goodwill, by approximately 11 % and the Asia Pacific reporting unit substantially exceeded its carrying value.

The fair value of the North America reporting unit’s goodwill is sensitive to differences between estimated and actual cash flows, including changes in the projected revenue, projected operating margin and discount rate used to evaluate the fair value of these assets. Although we believe our estimate of fair value is reasonable, the reporting unit’s future financial performance is dependent on our ability to execute our business plan and to successfully implement strategic actions which we expect will improve our long-term operating margin. If a reporting unit’s future financial performance falls below our expectations, there are adverse revisions to significant assumptions, or our market capitalization declines further or does not improve from the strategic actions we are implementing, this could be indicative that the fair values of each of our reporting units has declined below their carrying values, and therefore we may need to record a material, non-cash goodwill impairment charge in a future period.

During the third quarter of 2024, we experienced a decline in volumes primarily in our lower tier indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the acquisition of Cooper Tire as a result of increased competition from lower tier imports in the market. We viewed this event as a triggering event and performed a quantitative analysis of the fair value of our indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the acquisition of Cooper Tire as of September 30, 2024. Based on the results of the quantitative impairment assessments, the fair value of the intangible assets was less than the carrying value, resulting in a non-cash impairment charge of $ 125 million in our Americas SBU during the third quarter of 2024.

As part of our annual impairment analysis as of October 31, 2024, we completed a quantitative impairment analysis of our indefinite-lived intangible assets to determine if their fair values were less than their carrying amounts. Based on the results of the quantitative impairment assessments, the Company determined that no impairment was required as the estimated fair values of our indefinite-lived intangible assets exceeded or approximated their respective carrying values. We identified $ 435 million of indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the Cooper Tire acquisition for which the estimated fair values approximated their respective carrying values. As part of our interim and annual impairment analysis, we determine the fair value of indefinite-lived intangible assets using the relief-from-royalty method, which calculates the cost savings associated with owning rather than licensing the assets. The most critical assumptions used in the calculation of the fair value are projected revenue, discount rate and royalty rate. The fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets is sensitive to differences between estimated and actual revenue, including changes in the discount rate and royalty rate used to evaluate the fair value of these assets. Although we believe our estimate of fair value is reasonable, the indefinite-lived intangible asset performance is dependent on our ability to execute our business plan. If our future financial performance falls below our expectations, there are adverse revisions to significant assumptions, including projected revenues, discount rates or royalty rates, this could be indicative that the fair values of these indefinite-lived intangible assets has declined below their carrying values, and therefore we may need to record a material, non-cash impairment charge in a future period.

We assessed the period from October 31, 2024 to December 31, 2024 and determined there were no factors that caused us to change our conclusions as of October 31, 2024. Future changes in the judgments, assumptions and estimates that are used in our impairment testing for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, including discount rates, royalty rates and cash flow projections, could result in significantly different estimates of the fair values. A significant reduction in the estimated fair values could result in additional impairment charges that could adversely affect our results of operations.

NOTES

$ 500 million 9.5 % Senior Notes due 2025

At December 31, 2024, $ 500 million aggregate principal amount of 9.5 % senior notes due 2025 were outstanding. Initially, $ 600 million of these notes were sold at 100 % of the principal amount and $ 200 million of these notes were sold at 101.75 % of the principal amount at an effective yield of 9.056 %. The remaining notes will mature on May 31, 2025 . These notes are unsecured senior obligations and are guaranteed by our U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries that also guarantee our obligations under our U.S. first lien revolving credit facility described below.

We have the option to redeem these notes, in whole or in part, at any time at a redemption price of 100 % during the 12-month period commencing on May 31, 2024 and thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.

On August 7, 2024, we redeemed $ 300 million in aggregate principal amount of these notes. The redemption price was equal to 100 % of the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

On February 4, 2025, we called for redemption of the remaining $ 500 million in aggregate principal amount of these notes on February 19, 2025 (the “Redemption Date”) at a redemption price equal to 100 % of the principal amount being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

The terms of the indenture for these notes, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, including Goodyear Europe B.V. ("GEBV"), to (i) incur additional debt or issue redeemable preferred stock, (ii) pay dividends, repurchase shares or make certain other restricted payments or investments, (iii) incur liens, (iv) sell assets, (v) incur restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or to make other payments to us, (vi) enter into affiliate transactions, (vii)

engage in sale and leaseback transactions, and (viii) consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets. These covenants are subject to significant exceptions and qualifications. For example, if these notes are assigned an investment grade rating from at least two of Moody's, Standard and Poor's and Fitch and no default has occurred and is continuing, certain covenants will be suspended and we may elect to suspend the subsidiary guarantees. The indenture has customary defaults, including a cross-default to material indebtedness of Goodyear and our subsidiaries.

$900 million 5% Senior Notes due 2026

At December 31, 2024, $ 900 million aggregate principal amount of 5 % senior notes due 2026 were outstanding. These notes were sold at 100 % of the principal amount and will mature on May 31, 2026 .

We have the option to redeem these notes, in whole or in part, at any time at a redemption price of 100 % during the 12-month period commencing on May 31, 2024 and thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.

The indenture for these notes includes covenants that are substantially similar to those contained in the indenture governing our 9.5 % senior notes due 2025, described above.

$700 million 4.875% Senior Notes due 2027

At December 31, 2024, $ 700 million aggregate principal amount of 4.875 % senior notes due 2027 were outstanding.

CREDIT FACILITIES

$ 2.75 billion Amended and Restated First Lien Revolving Credit Facility due 2026

Our first lien revolving credit facility matures on June 8, 2026 and is available in the form of loans or letters of credit. Up to $ 800 million in letters of credit and $ 50 million of swingline loans are available for issuance under the facility. Subject to the consent of the lenders whose commitments are to be increased, we may request that the facility be increased by up to $ 250 million.

Our obligations under the facility are guaranteed by most of our wholly-owned U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries. Our obligations under the facility and our subsidiaries' obligations under the related guarantees are secured by first priority security interests in collateral that includes, subject to certain exceptions:

U.S. and Canadian accounts receivable and inventory;
certain of our U.S. manufacturing facilities;
equity interests in our U.S. subsidiaries and up to 65 % of the voting equity interests in most of our directly owned foreign subsidiaries; and
substantially all other tangible and intangible assets, including equipment, contract rights and intellectual property.

Availability under the facility is subject to a borrowing base, which is based on (i) eligible accounts receivable and inventory of The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company and certain of its U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries, (ii) the value of our principal trademarks in an amount not to exceed $ 400 million, (iii) the value of eligible machinery and equipment, and (iv) certain cash in an amount not to exceed $ 275 million. To the extent that our eligible accounts receivable, inventory and other components of the borrowing base decline in value, our borrowing base will decrease and the availability under the facility may decrease below $ 2.75 billion. As of December 31, 2024, our borrowing base was above the facility's stated amount of $ 2.75 billion.

The facility contains covenants that, among other things, limit our ability and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to (i) incur additional debt or issue redeemable preferred stock, (ii) pay dividends, repurchase shares or make certain other restricted payments or investments, (iii) incur liens, (iv) sell assets, (v) incur restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or to make other payments to us, (vi) enter into affiliate transactions, (vii) engage in sale and leaseback transactions, and (viii) consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets. These covenants are subject to significant exceptions and qualifications. In addition, in the event that the availability under the facility plus the aggregate amount of our Available Cash is less than $ 275 million, we will not be permitted to allow our ratio of EBITDA to Consolidated Interest Expense to be less than 2.0 to 1.0 for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters. “Available Cash,” “EBITDA” and “Consolidated Interest Expense” have the meanings given them in the facility.

The facility has customary representations and warranties including, as a condition to borrowing, that all such representations and warranties are true and correct, in all material respects, on the date of the borrowing, including representations as to no material adverse change in our business or financial condition since December 31, 2020. The facility also has customary defaults, including a cross-default to material indebtedness of Goodyear and our subsidiaries.

If Available Cash (as defined in the facility) plus the availability under the facility is greater than $ 750 million, amounts drawn under the facility will bear interest, at our option, at (i) 125 basis points over SOFR or (ii) 25 basis points over an alternate base rate (the higher of (a) the prime rate, (b) the federal funds effective rate or the overnight bank funding rate plus 50 basis points or (c) SOFR for a one month interest period plus 100 basis points). If Available Cash plus the availability under the facility is equal to or less than $ 750 million, then amounts drawn under the facility will bear interest, at our option, at (i) 150 basis points over SOFR or (ii) 50 basis points over an alternate base rate. Based on our current liquidity, amounts drawn under this facility bear interest at SOFR plus 125 basis points. Undrawn amounts under the facility are subject to an annual commitment fee of 25 basis points.

At December 31, 2024, we had $ 700 million of borrowings and $ 1 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility. At December 31, 2023, we had $ 385 million of borrowings and $ 1 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility.

800 million Amended and Restated Senior Secured European Revolving Credit Facility due 2028

The European revolving credit facility matures on January 14, 2028 and consists of (i) a € 180 million German tranche that is available only to Goodyear Germany GmbH and (ii) a € 620 million all-borrower tranche that is available to GEBV, Goodyear Germany and Goodyear Operations S.A. Up to € 175 million of swingline loans and € 75 million in letters of credit are available

94


Table of Contents

for issuance under the all-borrower tranche. Subject to the consent of the lenders whose commitments are to be increased, we may request that the facility be increased by up to € 200 million. Amounts drawn under this facility will bear interest at SOFR plus 150 basis points for loans denominated in U.S. dollars, EURIBOR plus 150 basis points for loans denominated in euros, and SONIA plus 150 basis points for loans denominated in pounds sterling. Undrawn amounts under the facility are subject to an annual commitment fee of 25 basis points.

GEBV and certain of its subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Luxembourg, France and Germany provide guarantees to support the facility. GEBV’s obligations under the facility and the obligations of its subsidiaries under the related guarantees are secured by security interests in collateral that includes, subject to certain exceptions:

the capital stock of the principal subsidiaries of GEBV; and
a substantial portion of the tangible and intangible assets of GEBV and certain of its subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Luxembourg, France and Germany, including real property, equipment, inventory, contract rights, intercompany receivables and cash accounts, but excluding accounts receivable and certain cash accounts in subsidiaries that are or may become parties to securitization or factoring transactions.

The German guarantors secure the German tranche on a first-lien basis and the all-borrower tranche on a second-lien basis. GEBV and its other subsidiaries that provide guarantees secure the all-borrower tranche on a first-lien basis and generally do not provide collateral support for the German tranche. The Company and its U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries that guarantee our U.S. first lien revolving credit facility described above also provide unsecured guarantees in support of the facility.

The facility contains covenants similar to those in our first lien revolving credit facility, with additional limitations applicable to GEBV and its subsidiaries. In addition, under the facility, GEBV’s ratio of Consolidated Net GEBV Indebtedness to Consolidated GEBV EBITDA for a period of four consecutive fiscal quarters is not permitted to be greater than 3.0 to 1.0 at the end of any fiscal quarter. “Consolidated Net GEBV Indebtedness” and “Consolidated GEBV EBITDA” have the meanings given them in the facility.

The facility has customary representations and warranties including, as a condition to borrowing, that all such representations and warranties are true and correct, in all material respects, on the date of the borrowing, including representations as to no material adverse change in our business or financial condition since December 31, 2021. The facility also has customary defaults, including a cross-default to material indebtedness of Goodyear and our subsidiaries.

At December 31, 2024 and 2023, we had no borrowings and no letters of credit outstanding under the European revolving credit facility.

Potential Future Financings

On July 22, 2024, we entered into a commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”) to provide us a 364-day senior unsecured committed credit facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $ 500 million (the “Committed Credit Facility”). If drawn, borrowings under the Committed Credit Facility would be required to be used solely to redeem our remaining outstanding 9.5 % Senior Notes due 2025 (the “9.5% Notes”). On February 3, 2025, following the closing of the sale of our off-the-road tire business to The Yokohama Rubber Company, Limited, the commitments under the Commitment Letter for the Committed Credit Facility were reduced to zero and the Commitment Letter was terminated in accordance with its terms. On February 4, 2025, we called for redemption in full of the 9.5 % Notes on the Redemption Date at a redemption price equal to 100 % of the principal amount being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

Accounts Receivable Securitization Facilities (On-Balance Sheet)

GEBV and certain other of our European subsidiaries are parties to a pan-European accounts receivable securitization facility that expires in 2027. The terms of the facility provide the flexibility to designate annually the maximum amount of funding available under the facility in an amount of not less than € 30 million and not more than € 450 million. For the period from October 19, 2023 through October 16, 2024, the designated maximum amount of the facility was € 300 million. For the period from October 17, 2024 through October 16, 2025, the designated maximum amount of the facility will remain € 300 million.

The facility involves an ongoing daily sale of substantially all of the trade accounts receivable of certain GEBV subsidiaries. These subsidiaries retain servicing responsibilities. Utilization under this facility is based on eligible receivable balances.

Table of Contents

The funding commitments under the facility will expire upon the earliest to occur of: (a) October 19, 2027, (b) the non-renewal and expiration (without substitution) of all of the back-up liquidity commitments, (c) the early termination of the facility according to its terms (generally upon an Early Amortisation Event (as defined in the facility), which includes, among other things, events similar to the events of default under our first lien revolving credit facility; certain tax law changes; or certain changes to law, regulation or accounting standards), or (d) our request for early termination of the facility. The facility’s current back-up liquidity commitments will expire on October 16, 2025.

At December 31, 2024, the amounts available and utilized under this program totaled $ 227 million (€ 218 million). At December 31, 2023, the amounts available and utilized under this program totaled $ 244 million (€ 221 million). The program does not qualify for sale accounting, and accordingly, these amounts are included in Long Term Debt and Finance Leases.

Accounts Receivable Factoring Facilities (Off-Balance Sheet)

We have sold certain of our trade receivables under off-balance sheet programs. For these programs, we have concluded that there is generally no risk of loss to us from non-payment of the sold receivables. At December 31, 2024, the gross amount of receivables sold was $ 773 million, compared to $ 693 million at December 31, 2023.

Supplier Financing

We have entered into payment processing agreements with several financial institutions. Under these agreements, the financial institutions act as our paying agents with respect to accounts payable due to our suppliers. These agreements also allow our suppliers to sell their receivables to the financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the supplier and the financial institution on terms that are negotiated between them. We are not always notified when our suppliers sell receivables under these programs. Our obligations to our suppliers, including the amounts due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by our suppliers' decisions to sell their receivables under these programs. Agreements for such supplier financing programs totaled up to $ 775 m illion and $ 892 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The amounts confirmed to the financial institutions were $ 604 million and $ 580 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are included in Accounts Payable — Trade in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. All activity related to these obligations is presented within operating activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Our Chinese subsidiaries have several financing arrangements in China. These facilities contain covenants relating to these Chinese subsidiaries and have customary representations and warranties and defaults relating to these Chinese subsidiaries' ability to perform their respective obligations under these facilities. These facilities are also available for other off-balance sheet utilization, such as letters of credit and bank acceptances.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We utilize derivative financial instrument contracts and nonderivative instruments to manage interest rate, foreign exchange and commodity price risks. We have established a control environment that includes policies and procedures for risk assessment and the approval, reporting and monitoring of derivative financial instrument activities. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

Foreign Currency Contracts

We enter into foreign currency contracts in order to manage the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on our consolidated results of operations and future foreign currency-denominated cash flows. These contracts may be used to reduce exposure to currency movements affecting existing foreign currency-denominated assets, liabilities, firm commitments and forecasted transactions resulting primarily from trade purchases and sales, equipment acquisitions, intercompany loans and royalty agreements. Contracts hedging short term trade receivables and payables normally have no hedging designation.

These amounts were substantially offset in Other (Income) Expense by the effect of changing exchange rates on the underlying currency exposures.

The counterparties to our foreign currency contracts were considered by us to be substantial and creditworthy financial institutions that were recognized market makers at the time we entered into those contracts. We seek to control our credit exposure to these counterparties by diversifying across multiple counterparties, by setting counterparty credit limits based on long term credit ratings and other indicators of counterparty credit risk such as credit default swap spreads and default probabilities, and by monitoring the financial strength of these counterparties on a regular basis. We also enter into master netting agreements with counterparties when possible. By controlling and monitoring exposure to counterparties in this manner, we believe that we effectively manage the risk of loss due to nonperformance by a counterparty. However, the inability of a counterparty to fulfill its contractual obligations to us could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial position or results of operations in the period in which it occurs.

Note 17. Pension, Other Postretirement Benefits and Savings Plans

We provide employees with defined benefit pension or defined contribution savings plans. Our hourly U.S. pension plans are frozen, except for certain grandfathered participants in the Cooper Tire hourly pension plans who continue to accrue benefits, and provide benefits based on length of service. The principal salaried U.S. pension plan is frozen and provides benefits based on compensation and length of service. Salaried employees who made voluntary contributions to this plan receive higher benefits. We also provide certain U.S. employees and employees at certain non-U.S. subsidiaries with health care benefits or life insurance benefits upon retirement. Substantial portions of retiree health care benefits are not insured and are funded from operations.

During 2024, we recognized a net pension settlement credit of $ 3 million in Other (Income) Expense, primarily related to a premium refund from the purchase of a group annuity contract for the Cooper Tire U.S. salaried defined benefit pension plan described below. Excess plan assets of $ 5 million from the plan were used to fund obligations associated with our U.S. salaried defined contribution savings plan.

During 2023, we recognized settlement charges of $ 40 million in Other (Income) Expense, primarily related to the settlement of all plan benefits of the Cooper Tire U.S. salaried defined benefit pension plan with lump sum payments to electing participants and the purchase of a group annuity contract. After settlement, excess plan assets of $ 18 million were used to fund obligations associated with our U.S. salaried defined contribution savings plan. During 2023, we recognized termination benefits charges of $ 1 million in Rationalizations related to the closure of the Fulda tire manufacturing facility.

During 2022, we recognized settlement charges of $ 124 million in Other (Income) Expense, primarily related to our U.S. pension plans. The settlement charges resulted from total lump sum payments exceeding annual service and interest cost of the applicable plans.

Our U.K. pension plan obligations include approximately $ 21 million at December 31, 2024, to recognize the impact to our plans from court rulings in 2018 and later, involving a plan with similar features to ours that was sponsored by another company, that required equal guaranteed minimum pension benefits for males and females. The total amount recognized includes an estimated $ 6 million related to benefits for certain participants that are still subject to finalization of plan amendments. These amounts have been recognized in AOCL, including $ 1 million and $ 16 million of actuarial losses in 2024 and 2023, respectively, from agreements with the plan trustees on implementation of changes for certain participants in one of our U.K. pension plans.

Service cost is recorded in CGS or SAG. Other components of net periodic cost are recorded in Other (Income) Expense. Net curtailments, settlements and termination benefits are recorded in Other (Income) Expense or Rationalizations if related to a rationalization plan.

We use the fair value of pension assets in the calculation of pension expense for all plans.

Total benefits cost for our other postretirement benefits was $ 3 million , $ 5 million and $ 12 million for our U.S. plans in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $ 3 million, $ 3 million and $ 4 million for our non-U.S. plans in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

During 2024, we approved changes to one of our U.S. other postretirement benefit plans, effective January 1, 2025, which resulted in a $ 28 million reduction of our U.S. other postretirement benefit obligation.

The Medicare Prescription Drug Improvement and Modernization Act provides plan sponsors a federal subsidy for certain qualifying prescription drug benefits covered under the sponsor’s postretirement health care plans. Our other postretirement benefits cost is presented net of this subsidy, which is less than $ 1 million annually.

For 2024, a weighted average discount rate of 5.07 % was used to determine interest cost for the U.S. pension plans. This rate was derived from spot rates along a yield curve developed from a portfolio of corporate bonds from issuers rated AA or higher by established rating agencies as of December 31, 2023, applied to our expected benefit payment cash flows. For our non-U.S. locations, a weighted average discount rate of 4.19 % was used. This rate was developed based on the nature of the liabilities and local environments, using available bond indices, yield curves, projected cash flows, and long term inflation.

For 2024, an assumed weighted average long term rate of return of 5.95 % was used for the U.S. pension plans. In developing the long term rate of return, we evaluated input from our pension fund consultant on asset class return expectations, including determining the appropriate rate of return for our plans, which are substantially invested in fixed income securities. For our non-U.S. locations, an assumed weighted average long term rate of return of 4.63 % was used. Input from local pension fund consultants concerning asset class return expectations and long term inflation form the basis of this assumption.

The U.S. pension plan mortality assumption is based on our actual historical experience or published actuarial tables, and expected future mortality improvements based on published actuarial tables. For our non-U.S. locations, mortality assumptions are based on published actuarial tables which include projections of future mortality improvements.

Certain non-U.S. subsidiaries maintain unfunded pension plans consistent with local practices and requirements. At December 31, 2024, these plans accounted for $ 168 million of our accumulated pension benefit obligation, $ 197 million of our projected pension benefit obligation, and $ 15 million of our AOCL adjustment. At December 31, 2023, these plans accounted for $ 182 million of our accumulated pension benefit obligation, $ 222 million of our projected pension benefit obligation, and $ 32 million of our AOCL adjustment.

We expect to contribute $ 25 million to $ 50 million to our funded pension plans in 2025.

Our pension investment policies recognize the long-term nature of pension liabilities, and are primarily designed to offset the future impact of discount rate movements on the funded status for our plans, with target return-seeking allocations based upon given funded ratio levels. All assets are managed externally according to target asset allocation guidelines we have established. Manager guidelines prohibit the use of any type of investment derivative without our prior approval. Portfolio risk is controlled by having managers comply with guidelines, establishing the maximum size of any single holding in their portfolios, and using managers with different investment styles. We periodically undertake asset and liability modeling studies to determine the appropriateness of the investments.

The portfolio of our U.S. pension plan assets includes holdings of global high quality and high yield fixed income securities, short term interest bearing deposits, and private equity and credit securities. The target asset allocation of our U.S. pens ion plans is 94 % in duration-matched fixed income securities and 6 % in private equity and credit securities . Actual U.S. pension fund asset allocations are reviewed on a periodic basis and the pension funds are rebalanced to target ranges on an as needed basis.

The portfolios of our non-U.S. pension plans include holdings of global high quality and high yield fixed income securities, U.S. and non-U.S. equities, real estate funds, insurance contracts, repurchase agreements, and short term interest bearing deposits. The weighted average target asset allocation of the non-U.S. pension funds is approximately 90 % fixed income, 5 % equities and 5 % i n real estate funds.

Table of Contents

The classification of fair value measurements within the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement. Investments that are measured at Net Asset Value ("NAV") as a practical expedient to estimate fair value are not classified in the fair value hierarchy. Under the practical expedient approach, the NAV is based on the fair value of the underlying investments held by each fund less its liabilities. This practical expedient would not be used when it is determined to be probable that the fund will sell the investment for an amount different than the reported NAV. The fair value amounts presented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to total plan assets. Valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value are as follows:

Cash and Short Term Securities: Cash and cash equivalents consist of U.S. and foreign currencies. Foreign currencies are reported in U.S. dollars based on currency exchange rates readily available in active markets. Short term securities held in commingled funds are valued at the NAV of units held at year end, as determined by the investment manager.
Equity Securities: Common and preferred stock, which are held in non-U.S. companies, are valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded. Commingled funds are primarily valued at the NAV of units held at year end, as determined by a pricing vendor or the fund family. Mutual funds are valued at the NAV of shares held at year end, as determined by the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded, or a pricing vendor or the fund family if an active market is not available. Partnership interests in private equity securities are priced based on valuations using the partnership’s latest available financial statements and the plan's percent ownership, adjusted for any cash transactions which occurred between the date of those financial statements and our year end.
Debt Securities: Corporate and government bonds, including asset backed securities, are valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded, or based on institutional bid evaluations using proprietary models if an active market is not available. Repurchase agreements are valued at the contract price plus accrued interest. These secured borrowings are collateralized by government bonds held by the non-U.S. plans and have maturities less than one year. Commingled funds are primarily valued at the NAV of units held at year end, as determined by a pricing vendor or the fund family. Mutual funds are valued at the NAV of shares held at year end, as determined by the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded, or a pricing vendor or the fund family if an active market is not available. Partnership interests in private credit securities are priced based on valuations using the partnership’s latest available financial statements and the plan's percent ownership, adjusted for any cash transactions which occurred between the date of those financial statements and our year end.
Alternatives: Commingled and mutual funds, which primarily consist of real estate funds, are valued based on the NAV as determined by the fund manager using the most recent financial information available, or the closing price on the active market on which the individual securities are traded, if an active market is available. Partnership interests are invested in real estate and priced based on valuations using the partnership's latest available financial statements and the plan's percent ownership, adjusted for any cash transactions which occurred between the date of those financial statements and our year end. Other investments primarily include derivative financial instruments, which are valued using independent pricing sources which utilize industry standard derivative valuation models. Directed insurance contracts are valued as reported by the issuer, based on discounted cash flows using a weighted average discount rate of 3.2 % and 3.0 % at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

The following table sets forth a summary of changes in fair value of the non-U.S. pension plan insurance contracts classified as Level 3:

Savings Plans

Substantially all employees in the U.S. and employees of certain non-U.S. locations are eligible to participate in defined contribution savings plans. Expenses recognized for contributions to these plans were $ 134 million, $ 131 million and $ 127 million for 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Note 18. Stock Compensation Plans

Our stock compensation plans (collectively, the “Plans”) permit the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), performance share units, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards to employees and directors. Our current stock compensation pl an, the 2022 Performance Plan, was adopted on April 11, 2022 and expires on February 28, 2032 . A total of 21 million shares of our com mon stock may be issued in respect of grants made under the 2022 Performance Plan. Any shares of common stock that are subject to awards of stock options or SARs will be counted as one share for each share granted for purposes of the aggregate share limit and any shares of common stock that are subject to any other awards will be counted as 2 shares for each share granted for purposes of the aggregate share limit. In addition, shares of common stock that are subject to awards issued under the 2022 Performance Plan or certain prior Plans that expire according to their terms or are forfeited, terminated, canceled or surrendered or are settled, or can be paid, only in cash, or are surrendered in payment of taxes associated with such awards (other than stock options or SARs) will be available for issuance pursuant to a new award under the 2022 Performance Plan. Shares issued under our Plans are usually issued from shares of our common stock held in treasury.

Stock Options

Grants of stock options and SARs (collectively referred to as “options”) under the Plans generally have a graded vesting period of four years whereby one-fourth of the awards vest on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date, an exercise price equal to the fair market value of one share of our common stock on the date of grant (i.e., the closing market price on that date) and a contractual term of ten years . The exercise of tandem SARs cancels an equivalent number of stock options and, conversely, the exercise of stock options cancels an equivalent number of tandem SARs. Option grants are cancelled on, or 90 days following, termination of employment unless termination is due to retirement, death or disability under certain circumstances, in which case, all outstanding options vest fully and remain outstanding for a term set forth in the related grant agreement.

Performance Share Units

Performance share units granted under the Plans are earned over a three-year period beginning January 1 of the year of grant. Total units earned for grants made in 2024, 2023 and 2022 may vary bet ween 0 % and 200 % of the units granted based on the attainment of performance targets during the related three-year period and continued service. The performance targets are established by the Board of Directors. All of the units earned will be settled through the issuance of an equivalent number of shares of our common stock and are equity classified.

Note 19. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Environmental Matters

We have recorded liabilities totaling $ 81 million and $ 80 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, for anticipated costs related to various environmental matters, primarily the remediation of numerous waste disposal sites and certain properties sold by us. Of these amounts, $ 24 million and $ 27 million were included in Other Current Liabilities at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The costs include legal and consulting fees, site studies, the design and implementation of remediation plans, post-remediation monitoring and related activities, and will be paid over several years. The amount of our ultimate liability in respect of these matters may be affected by several uncertainties, primarily the ultimate cost of required remediation and the extent to which other responsible parties contribute. We have limited potential insurance coverage for future environmental claims.

Since many of the remediation activities related to environmental matters vary substantially in duration and cost from site to site and the associated costs for each vary depending on the mix of unique site characteristics, in some cases we cannot reasonably estimate a range of possible losses. Although it is not possible to estimate with certainty the outcome of all of our environmental matters, management believes that potential losses in excess of current reserves for environmental matters, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

Workers’ Compensation

We have recorded liabilities, on a discounted basis, totaling $ 158 million and $ 167 million for anticipated costs related to workers’ compensation at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Of these amounts, $ 31 million and $ 37 million were included in Current Liabilities as part of Compensation and Benefits at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The costs include an estimate of expected settlements on pending claims, defense costs and a provision for claims incurred but not reported. These estimates are based on our assessment of potential liability using an analysis of available information with respect to pending claims, historical experience, and current cost trends. The amount of our ultimate liability in respect of these matters may differ from these estimates. We periodically, and at least annually, update our loss development factors based on actuarial analyses. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the liability was discounted using a risk-free rate of return. At December

109


Table of Contents

31, 2024, we estimate that it is reasonably possible that the liability could exceed our recorded amounts by approximately $ 25 million.

General and Product Liability and Other Litigation

We have recorded liabilities for both asserted and unasserted claims totaling $ 406 million and $ 438 million, including related legal fees expected to be incurred, for potential product liability and other tort claims, including asbestos claims, at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Of these amounts, $ 60 million and $ 46 million were included in Other Current Liabilities at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The amounts recorded were estimated based on an assessment of potential liability using an analysis of available information with respect to pending claims, historical experience and, where available, recent and current trends. Based upon that assessment, at December 31, 2024, we do not believe that estimated reasonably possible losses associated with general and product liability claims in excess of the amounts recorded will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows or results of operations. However, the amount of our ultimate liability in respect of these matters may differ from these estimates.

We have recorded an indemnification asset within Accounts Receivable of $ 4 million and within Other Assets of $ 2 million from Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd.'s ("SRI") obligation to indemnify us for certain product liability claims related to products manufactured by a formerly consolidated joint venture entity, subject to certain caps and restrictions.

Asbestos. We are a defendant in numerous lawsuits alleging various asbestos-related personal injuries purported to result from alleged exposure to asbestos in certain products manufactured by us or present in certain of our facilities. Typically, these lawsuits have been brought against multip le defendants in state and federal courts. To date, we have disposed of approximately 161,200 clai ms by defending, obtaining a dismissal thereof, or entering into a settlement. The sum of our accrued asbestos-related liability and gross payments to date, including legal costs, by us and our insurers totaled $ 589 million and $ 580 million through December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

A summary of recent approximate asbestos claims activity follows. Because claims are often filed and disposed of by dismissal or settlement in large numbers, the amount and timing of settlements and the number of open claims during a particular period can fluctuate significantly.

We periodically, and at least annually, review our existing reserves for pending claims, including a reasonable estimate of the liability associated with unasserted asbestos claims, and estimate our receivables from probable insurance recoveries. We recorded gross liabilities for both asserted and unasserted claims, inclusive of defense costs, totaling $ 115 million and $ 120 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. In determining the estimate of our asbestos liability, we evaluated claims over the next ten-year period. Due to the difficulties in making these estimates, analysis based on new data and/or a change in circumstances arising in the future may result in an increase in the recorded obligation, and that increase could be significant.

We maintain certain primary and excess insurance coverage under coverage-in-place agreements, and also have additional excess liability insurance with respect to asbestos liabilities. After consultation with our outside legal counsel and giving consideration to agreements with certain of our insurance carriers, the financial viability and legal obligations of our insurance carriers and other relevant factors, we determine an amount we expect is probable of recovery from such carriers. We record a receivable with respect to such policies when we determine that recovery is probable and we can reasonably estimate the amount of a particular recovery.

We recorded an insurance receivable related to asbestos claims of $ 63 million and $ 66 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We expect that approximat ely 55 % of asbestos claim related losses would be recoverable through insurance during the ten-year period covered by the estimated liability. Of these amounts, $ 11 million and $ 10 million were included in Current Assets as part of Accounts Receivable at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The recorded receivable consists of an amount we expect to collect under coverage-in-place agreements with certain primary and excess insurance carriers as well as an amount we believe is probable of recovery from certain of our other excess insurance carriers.

We believe that, at December 31, 2024, we had approximately $ 520 million in excess level policy limits applicable to indemnity and defense costs for asbestos products claims under coverage-in-place agreements. We also had additional unsettled excess

110


Table of Contents

level policy limits potentially applicable to such costs. In addition, we had coverage under certain primary policies for indemnity and defense costs for asbestos products claims under remaining aggregate limits pursuant to a coverage-in-place agreement, as well as coverage for indemnity and defense costs for asbestos premises claims pursuant to coverage-in-place agreements.

We believe that our reserve for asbestos claims, and the receivable for recoveries from insurance carriers recorded in respect of these claims, reflects reasonable and probable estimates of these amounts. The estimate of the liabilities and assets related to pending and expected future asbestos claims and insurance recoveries is subject to numerous uncertainties, including, but not limited to, changes in:

the litigation environment,
federal and state law governing the compensation of asbestos claimants,
recoverability of receivables due to potential insolvency of insurance carriers,
our approach to defending and resolving claims, and
the level of payments made to claimants from other sources, including other defendants and 524(g) trusts.

As a result, with respect to both asserted and unasserted claims, it is reasonably possible that we may incur a material amount of cost in excess of the current reserve; however, such amounts cannot be reasonably estimated. Coverage under insurance policies is subject to varying characteristics of asbestos claims including, but not limited to, the type of claim (premise vs. product exposure), alleged date of first exposure to our products or premises and disease alleged. Recoveries may also be limited by insurer insolvencies or financial difficulties. Depending upon the nature of these characteristics or events, as well as the resolution of certain legal issues, some portion of the insurance may not be accessible by us.

Other Actions

We are currently a party to various claims, indirect tax assessments and legal proceedings in addition to those noted above. If management believes that a loss arising from these matters is probable and can reasonably be estimated, we record the amount of the loss, or the minimum estimated liability when the loss is estimated using a range and no point within the range is more probable than another. As additional information becomes available, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates are revised, if necessary. Based on currently available information, management believes that the ultimate outcome of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or overall trends in results of operations.

Our recorded liabilities and estimates of reasonably possible losses for the contingent liabilities described above are based on our assessment of potential liability using the information available to us at the time and, where applicable, any past experience and recent and current trends with respect to similar matters. Our contingent liabilities are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable judicial or administrative decisions could occur which we did not anticipate. Such an unfavorable decision could include monetary damages, fines or other penalties or an injunction prohibiting us from taking certain actions or selling certain products. If such an unfavorable decision were to occur, it could result in a material adverse impact on our financial position and results of operations in the period in which the decision occurs or in future periods.

Income Tax Matters

The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. We recognize liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on our estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. If we ultimately determine that payment of these amounts is unnecessary, we reverse the liability and recognize a tax benefit during the period in which we determine that the liability is no longer necessary. We also recognize income tax benefits to the extent that it is more likely than not that our positions will be sustained when challenged by the taxing authorities. We derecognize income tax benefits when based on new information we determine that it is no longer more likely than not that our position will be sustained. To the extent we prevail in matters for which liabilities have been established, or determine we need to derecognize tax benefits recorded in prior periods, our results of operations and effective tax rate in a given period could be materially affected. An unfavorable tax settlement would require use of our cash, and lead to recognition of expense to the extent the settlement amount exceeds recorded liabilities and, in the case of an income tax settlement, result in an increase in our effective tax rate in the period of resolution. A favorable tax settlement would be recognized as a reduction of expense to the extent the settlement amount is lower than recorded liabilities and, in the case of an income tax settlement, would result in a reduction in our effective tax rate in the period of resolution.

While we apply consistent transfer pricing policies and practices globally, support transfer prices through economic studies, seek advance pricing agreements and joint audits to the extent possible and believe our transfer prices to be appropriate, such transfer prices, and related interpretations of tax laws, are occasionally challenged by various taxing authorities globally. We

111


Table of Contents

have received various tax assessments challenging our interpretations of applicable tax laws in various jurisdictions. Although we believe we have complied with applicable tax laws, have strong positions and defenses and have historically been successful in defending such claims, our results of operations could be materially adversely affected in the case we are unsuccessful in the defense of existing or future claims.

Binding Commitments and Guarantees

At December 31, 2024, we had binding commitments for raw materials, capital expenditures, utilities and various other types of contracts totaling approximately $ 2.6 billion, of which approximately $ 1.4 billion relate to commitments on contracts that extend beyond 2025. In addition, we have other contractual commitments, the amounts of which cannot be estimated, pursuant to certain long term agreements under which we will purchase varying amounts of certain raw materials and finished goods at agreed upon base prices that may be subject to periodic adjustments for changes in raw material costs and market price adjustments, or in quantities that may be subject to periodic adjustments for changes in our or our suppliers' production levels.

We have off-balance sheet financial guarantees and other commitments totaling $ 29 million and $ 31 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We issue guarantees to financial institutions or other entities on behalf of certain of our affiliates, lessors or customers. We generally do not receive a separate premium as consideration for, and do not require collateral in connection with, the issuance of these guarantees.

In 2015, as a result of the dissolution of the global alliance with SRI, we issued a guarantee of $ 46 million to an insurance company related to SRI's obligation to pay certain outstanding workers' compensation claims of a formerly consolidated joint venture entity. As of December 31, 2024, this guarantee amount has been reduced to $ 15 million. We have concluded the probability of our performance to be remote and, therefore, have not recorded a liability for this guarantee. While there is no fixed duration of this guarantee, we expect the amount of this guarantee to continue to decrease over time as the formerly consolidated joint venture entity pays its outstanding claims.

If our performance under these guarantees is triggered by non-payment or another specified event, we would be obligated to make payment to the financial institution or the other entity, and would typically have recourse to the affiliate, lessor, customer, or SRI. We are unable to estimate the extent to which our affiliates’, lessors’, customers’, or SRI's assets would be adequate to recover any payments made by us under the related guarantees.

We have an agreement to provide a revolving loan commitment to TireHub, LLC. During the first quarter of 2024, the revolving loan commitment increased from $ 100 million to $ 130 million. At December 31, 2024, $ 119 million was drawn on this commitment, which includes $ 2 million of interest. At December 31, 2023, $ 96 million was drawn on this commitment, which includes $ 2 million of interest.

Indemnifications

At December 31, 2024, we were a party to various agreements under which we had assumed obligations to indemnify the counterparties from certain potential claims and losses. These agreements typically involve standard commercial activities undertaken by us in the normal course of business; the sale of assets by us; the formation or dissolution of joint venture businesses to which we had contributed assets in exchange for ownership interests; and other financial transactions. Indemnifications provided by us pursuant to these agreements relate to various matters including, among other things, environmental, tax and shareholder matters; intellectual property rights; government regulations; employment-related matters; and dealer, supplier and other commercial matters.

Certain indemnifications expire from time to time, and certain other indemnifications are not subject to an expiration date. In addition, our potential liability under certain indemnifications is subject to maximum caps, while other indemnifications are not subject to caps. Although we have been subject to indemnification claims in the past, we cannot reasonably estimate the number, type and size of indemnification claims that may arise in the future. Due to these and other uncertainties associated with the indemnifications, our maximum exposure to loss under these agreements cannot be estimated.

We have determined that there are no indemnifications or guarantees other than liabilities for which amounts are already recorded or reserved in our consolidated financial statements under which it is probable that we have incurred a liability.

Warranty

We recorded $ 15 millio n and $ 21 million for potential claims under warranties offered by us at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, the majority of which are recorded in Other Current Liabilities.

Note 22. Subsequent Events

Sale of Dunlop Brand

On January 7, 2025, we entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Dunlop Purchase Agreement”) with Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd. relating to the sale of the Dunlop brand in Europe, North America and Oceania for consumer, commercial and other specialty tires, together with certain associated intellectual property and other intangible assets, for a purchase price of $ 526 million. SRI will also pay us an up-front transition support fee of $ 105 million for our support in transitioning the Dunlop brand, related intellectual property and Dunlop customers to SRI. SRI will also acquire our existing Dunlop tire inventory. The Dunlop Purchase Agreement also contemplates entering into a number of ancillary agreements, including (a) a transition license agreement, pursuant to which we will continue to manufacture, sell and distribute Dunlop-branded consumer tires in Europe for an initial period from the closing of the transaction until December 31, 2025, which may be extended to December 31, 2026, and during which we will pay SRI a royalty on such Dunlop sales but will otherwise retain all profits therefrom; (b) a transition offtake agreement, pursuant to which we will sell to SRI certain Dunlop-branded consumer tire products for a period of up to five years, commencing after termination or expiration of the transition license agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein; and (c) we will license back the Dunlop brand from SRI for commercial tires in Europe on a long-term basis, subject to a royalty on sales. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals.

Rationalizations

On January 30, 2025, we approved a plan to reduce our production capacity at our Danville, Virginia tire manufacturing facility. We expect to substantially complete this rationalization plan by the end of 2025 and estimate the total pre-tax charges associated with this action to be between $ 130 million and $ 140 million, of which $ 80 million to $ 90 million is expected to be cash charges primarily for associate-related and other exit costs and the remaining costs are expected to be non-cash charges primarily for accelerated depreciation, pension curtailment and other asset-related charges. We expect to record approximately $ 100 million of pre-tax charges in the first quarter of 2025 and approximately $ 40 million of pre-tax charges during the remainder of 2025.

Off-the-Road ("OTR") Tire Business Divestiture

On February 3, 2025, we completed the sale of our OTR tire business to The Yokohama Rubber Company, Limited (“Yokohama”) pursuant to the terms of the Share and Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 22, 2024 (the “OTR Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the OTR Purchase Agreement, Yokohama acquired the Company’s OTR business for a purchase price of $ 905 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the OTR Purchase Agreement. In conjunction with the sale of the OTR business, we entered into several ancillary agreements, including a product supply agreement, pursuant to which we will supply to Yokohama certain OTR tires for an initial period of up to 5 years, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, including an exit and asset relocation plan to be mutually agreed upon by the parties pursuant to which, beginning no earlier than the 2nd anniversary of closing of the transaction, the production of those OTR tires will transition to Yokohama’s facilities.

The divestiture of our OTR tire business does not represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on our operations and financial results, and therefore does not qualify for reporting as a discontinued operation. Since entering into the OTR Purchase Agreement on July 22, 2024, we have classified the assets and liabilities of the OTR tire business as held for sale, which have been measured at carrying value. At December 31, 2024, assets classified as held for sale of $ 466 million were included within Assets Held for Sale and liabilities of $ 51 million were included in Other Current Liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As a result of the transaction, considering the receipt of the purchase price, amount allocated to deferred revenue and transaction costs and based upon the net assets of the OTR tire business as of December 31, 2024, we estimate we will record a pre-tax gain of approximately $ 275 m illion during the first quarter of 2025. We intend to use the net proceeds received from the transaction to repay certain debt obligations, including the remaining $ 500 million outstanding principal amount of our 9.5 % Notes.
