Costs Associated with Rationalization Programs | COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH RATIONALIZATION PROGRAMS In order to improve our global competitiveness and as part of our execution of the Goodyear Forward transformation plan ("Goodyear Forward"), we have implemented, and are implementing, rationalization actions to reduce high-cost and excess manufacturing capacity and operating and administrative costs. The following table presents a roll-forward of the liability balance between periods:

During the second quarter of 2025, we approved a proposed plan to close our manufacturing facility in Kariega, South Africa in the EMEA business unit. The plan includes approximately 900 job reductions, including associates and contracted positions, and is expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2025. The total charges associated with this action are expected to be between $100 million and $110 million, of which $45 million to $55 million are 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 and other asset-related charges. The rationalization plan remains subject to consultation with employee representative bodies. We have accrued approximately $26 million for this plan at June 30, 2025. During the first quarter of 2025, we approved a rationalization plan to eliminate our production of commercial tires in our Danville, Virginia tire manufacturing facility ("Danville") in order to reduce our production cost per tire in Americas. The plan includes approximately 850 job reductions, including associates and contracted positions. We expect to substantially complete this rationalization plan by the end of 2025. Total pre-tax charges are expected 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 termination benefit charges and other asset-related charges. We have approximately $23 million accrued for this plan at June 30, 2025. During the first quarter of 2025, we approved a plan to reduce Selling, Administrative and General expenses (“SAG”) headcount in Americas and Corporate. The proposed plan includes approximately 80 net headcount reductions. Total estimated pre-tax charges are expected to be approximately $6 million. We have accrued approximately $2 million for this plan at June 30, 2025. The remainder of the accrual balance at June 30, 2025 includes $219 million related to the closures of our Fulda, Germany ("Fulda") and our Fürstenwalde, Germany ("Fürstenwalde") tire manufacturing facilities, $56 million related to a rationalization and workforce reorganization plan in EMEA, which reflects $7 million of reversals due to voluntary attrition, $7 million related to the plan to open a shared service center in Costa Rica and to exit certain Commercial Tire and Service Center ("CTSC") locations, $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 plans to reduce SAG headcount, $2 million related to the closure of Cooper Tire's Melksham, United Kingdom tire manufacturing facility ("Melksham"), and various other plans to reduce headcount and improve operating efficiency. At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $291 million and $296 million were recorded in Other Current Liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively.
