Goodyear Forward Financial Results SBU Results Outlook End Notes Disclosures Reference Tables FINANCIAL RESULTS Income Statement Fourth quarter sales decreased 4.8% compared to prior year driven by the impact of lower replacement volume and lower third-party chemical sales. Sales increased 1% due to currency. Fourth quarter 2023 net loss was $291 million ($1.02 per share loss) compared to a net loss of $104 million ($0.37 per share) a year ago. The change in net loss was primarily due to a goodwill impairment charge related to our EMEA segment and higher rationalization charges, partly offset by higher segment operating income. After adjusting for significant items, our fourth quarter net income was $135 million, compared to $20 million in the prior year’s quarter. Significant items included $35 million in Corporate Other expenses related to Goodyear Forward, which includes advisory, legal and consulting fees and costs associated with planned asset sales. Adjusted earnings per share on a diluted basis were $0.47 compared to $0.07 a year ago.

These results reflected our strongest price/mix versus raw materials since the fourth quarter of 2012. Additionally, we generated the strongest fourth quarter operating cash flow since the pandemic. Our quarter results position us well as we execute on the Goodyear Forward plan. Q4 2023—5

FINANCIAL RESULTS Terms: $ millions Segment Operating Income Drivers Reported fourth quarter segment operating income was $383 million, up $147 million compared to prior year. Excluding the impact of the fire at our Debica, Poland facility, fourth quarter segment operating income was $395 million. The impact of lower volume was ($103) million, including ($57) million from lower sales volume and ($46) million from lower production during the third quarter to align with industry demand (down 4.8 million units compared to the third quarter of the prior year). Results included net price/mix versus raw materials of $249 million, the highest since the fourth quarter of 2012. Raw material cost decreases of $329 million more than offset price/mix of ($80) million. Lower price/mix primarily reflects continued mix declines related to commercial truck tire industry weakness and the effect of contractual raw material price adjustments with OE and fleet customers. Segment Operating Income Fourth Quarter 2023 versus 2022 Net cost savings of $10 million was driven by the benefits of lower transportation rates, which exceeded the negative impact of general inflation in our business. “Other” changes in segment operating income of ($9) million included the ($12) million impact of a fire in our Debica, Poland facility in August 2023.

SBU RESULTS—AMERICAS Net Sales Net sales in Americas of $3.1 billion decreased by $333 million, or 9.8%, compared with the fourth quarter of 2022. The decline in sales was driven by 8.8% lower volume. Segment Operating Income Segment operating income in Americas was $309 million compared with $279 million a year ago—an increase of $30 million. This result reflects the impact of lower volume following a particularly strong fourth quarter in 2022, including ($63) million of lower sales volume and ($20) million of unabsorbed overhead from lower production in the third quarter. Net price/mix versus raw materials was $62 million. Raw material cost decreases of $188 million more than offset price/mix of ($126) million. Lower price/mix includes the impact of contractual raw material price adjustments with our OE and fleet customers and continued weakness in the commercial truck tire industry. U.S. consumer replacement pricing was stable. Net cost savings were $35 million, driven by lower transportation costs. Segment operating income also benefitted from stronger performance in our chemical business of $12 million. NET SALES ($333)m -9.8% YoY SBU—Americas NET SALES 2022 2023 $3,400 $3,067 SOI MARGIN 8.2 % 10.1 % SEGMENT OPERATING INCOME +$30m +10.8% YoY SBU—Americas Segment Operating Income 2022 2023 $279 $309 Terms: $ in millions Fourth Quarter Summary Americas fourth quarter segment operating margin of 10.1% was the highest quarterly result since 2021. This is evident in our consumer replacement margins, which expanded significantly during the fourth quarter. Americas volume was 8.8% lower than prior year following particularly strong volume in the fourth quarter of 2022. While our U.S. volume has seen a significant amount of volatility since 2020, our overall consumer replacement share is in line with our strategy to focus on profitable growth. Our commercial truck replacement volume declined 12% on continued industry weakness. Goodyear Forward Financial Results SBU Results Outlook End Notes Disclosures Reference Tables Q4 2023—8

SBU RESULTS—AMERICAS Tire Volumes Overall volume in Americas was down 2.3 million units, or 8.8% below fourth quarter 2022 levels. Replacement volume was 8.9% lower (1.9 million units), while OE volume was 8.6% lower (0.4 million units). The decrease in replacement volume reflects a strong comparable in the U.S. consumer tire market, industry destocking in Latin America and continued commercial weakness. Consumer replacement share in the U.S. was in line with year-to-date results, with continued strength in premium brands. The OE result primarily reflects UAW strike-related impacts during the quarter and weaker commercial truck build rates given weak trucking industry conditions.

SBU RESULTS—EMEA NET SALES +$35m +2.6% YoY SBU—EMEA NET SALES 2022 2023 $1,364 $1,399 Terms: $ in millions SEGMENT OPERATING INCOME SOI MARGIN -5.9% 0.4% +$86m +107.5% YoY SBU—EMEA Segment Operating Income 2022 2023 ($80) $6 Net Sales Net sales in EMEA of $1.4 billion increased $35 million, or 2.6%, compared with the fourth quarter of 2022. The increase in sales was driven by 2% higher revenue per tire (excluding mix and foreign currency), partly offset by lower unit volumes. Segment Operating Income Segment operating income in EMEA was $6 million compared with a loss of ($80) million a year ago – an increase of $86 million. The result was driven by net price/mix versus raw materials of $170 million, including raw material cost decreases of $108 million and price/mix benefit of $62 million. These benefits were offset partly by the impact of lower volume, including ($6) million of lower sales and ($27) million of unabsorbed overhead from lower production in the third quarter. The impact of inflation and other cost increases in our business were approximately ($27) million. Additionally, segment operating income was impacted by ($12) million from a fire in our factory in Debica, Poland. Fourth Quarter Summary EMEA’s earnings recovered compared to a low base in the prior year. Results reflect continued destocking in consumer replacement, which was more than offset by strong price/mix performance and the benefit of lower raw material costs. The European consumer replacement industry grew in the quarter, driven by low-cost imports. Goodyear’s consumer replacement volume declined 5%, reflecting continued channel destocking. Our commercial truck volume declined 11%, reflecting weak industry conditions. Goodyear Forward Financial Results SBU Results Outlook End Notes Disclosures Reference Tables Q4 2023—10

SBU RESULTS—EMEA Tire Volumes Overall volume in EMEA was down 0.4 million units, or 3.7% below fourth quarter 2022 levels. Replacement volume was 5.8% lower (0.5 million units), while OE volume was 2.3% higher (0.1 million units). The decline in Goodyear’s replacement volume during the fourth quarter reflects continued channel destocking for consumer and commercial. Industry growth in the fourth quarter was driven by low-end imports. Goodyear’s consumer replacement volume result was more in line with that of other European domestic producers. OE volume reflects stable industry growth. Sell-Out Activity Industry retail sales to end consumers (i.e., “sell out”) increased slightly during the quarter. Goodyear-branded sell-out volumes increased in the premium segment – ahead of the market. At the end of the fourth quarter, Goodyear’s European consumer replacement channel inventories were down approximately 15% compared with a year ago, driven by winter tires.

This result reflects a 10% increase in tire volume, partly offset by 1% lower revenue per tire (excluding mix and foreign currency). Segment Operating Income Segment operating income in Asia Pacific was $68 million compared with $37 million a year ago – an increase of $31 million. This result reflects a $12 million benefit of increased sales volume. Net price/mix versus raw materials was $17 million. Raw material cost decreases of $33 million more than offset price/mix of ($16) million driven by the effect of contractual raw material price adjustments.

The region’s solid performance included a combination of volume growth and favorable price/mix verus raw material benefits. OE fitment wins geared toward premium vehicles, including EVs, drove the strong volume performance. Our overall product positioning, together with our aligned distribution model in consumer replacement, will enable us to continue our growth momentum.

OUTLOOK First Quarter 2024 Volume Global unit volumes are expected to be down approximately 2%, driven by replacement. Raw Materials We expect raw material costs to be lower than prior year by approximately $245 million. Price/Mix vs Raws We expect the net benefit of price/mix verus raw materials to be approximately $115 million. Price/mix is expected to include the negative price impact from indexed agreements and currency-related adjustments (i.e., Brazil). Price/mix also reflects negative mix driven by commercial truck tire industry weakness. Goodyear Forward We expect savings to total approximately $50 million during the first quarter, driven by purchasing. These savings are separate from any other outlook category. Inflation & Other Costs The impact of inflation & other costs is expected to be approximately ($25) million compared to the first quarter of 2023. This includes general inflation of approximately 3%, partly offset by lower transportation rates. Debica Fire Impact The fire at our operations in Debica, Poland is expected to negatively impact first quarter segment operating income by approximately $15 million. While this will be reflected in earnings, the effect will be called out as a significant item for purposes of our calculation of adjusted EPS. The facility is expected to be fully operational during the second half. Other Q1 2023 results included a $21 million benefit from a duty refund on imported tires that will not recur in 2024. Cash Flow First quarter free cash flow is expected to be a use of cash, in line with historical seasonality. Volume Considerations for the First Quarter Expect consumer replacement industry to be down low-single digits (with the U.S. growth driven by imports more than offset by double-digit declines in Latin America). The commercial tire industry is expected to be down slightly, with underlying strong growth in imports. AMERICAS First quarter industry volume is expected to reflect growth in mature markets, driven by low end imports. Industry member growth in the first quarter is expected to be lower year-over-year. Expect consumer replacement industry to be up low-single digits compared to prior year, driven by continued growth in imports. The commercial tire industry is expected to be down slightly, with underlying strong growth in imports. EMEA Expect low-single digit industry growth in consumer replacement.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures (unaudited) This Investor Letter presents or refers to non-GAAP financial measures, including Total Segment Operating Income and Margin, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS) and Net Leverage, which are important financial measures for the company but are not financial measures defined by U.S. GAAP, and should not be construed as alternatives to corresponding financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Total Segment Operating Income is the sum of the individual strategic business units’ (SBUs’) Segment Operating Income as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Total Segment Operating Margin is Total Segment Operating Income divided by Net Sales as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes that Total Segment Operating Income and Margin are useful because they represent the aggregate value of income created by the company’s SBUs and exclude items not directly related to the SBUs for performance evaluation purposes. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures to Total Segment Operating Income and Margin are Goodyear Net Income (Loss) and Return on Net Sales (which is calculated by dividing Goodyear Net Income (Loss) by Net Sales). Free Cash Flow is the company’s Cash Flows from Operating Activities as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, less capital expenditures. Management believes that Free Cash Flow is useful because it represents the cash generating capability of the company’s ongoing operations, after taking into consideration capital expenditures necessary to maintain its business and pursue growth opportunities. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure is Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is Goodyear Net Income (Loss) as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP adjusted for certain significant items. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS) is the company’s Adjusted Net Income (Loss) divided by Weighted Average Shares Outstanding-Diluted as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes that Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS) are useful because they represent how management reviews the operating results of the company excluding the impacts of non-cash impairment charges, rationalizations, asset write-offs, accelerated depreciation, asset sales and certain other significant items. Net Leverage is the company’s total debt less cash and cash equivalents as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Management believes that the ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA, or similar ratios, are widely used by investors as a means of evaluating the company’s leverage. Adjusted EBITDA is Net Income (Loss), as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP (the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA), before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, rationalization charges, and other (income) and expense. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors as a means of evaluating the company’s operating performance. It should be noted that other companies may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP financial measures differently and, as a result, the measures presented herein may not be comparable to such similarly-titled measures reported by other companies. See the following tables for reconciliations of historical Total Segment Operating Income and Margin, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures.
