ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (the “Company,” “Goodyear,” “we,” “us” or “our”) in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations and generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and in the opinion of management contain all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Form 10-K”).

Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected in subsequent quarters or for the year ending December 31, 2025.

Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements

In preparing the consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, we identified errors in our previously issued financial statements related to our historical computation of currency remeasurement of our foreign operations in Turkey, which was designated as a highly inflationary economy beginning April 1, 2022. Upon that designation, the operations and balance sheet in that country should be remeasured into our parent company reporting currency, with remeasurement gains and losses recognized in earnings to reflect the impact of currency translation on our financial results. Our computation did not reflect the full inflationary impact. The identified errors impacted our previously issued 2022, 2023 and 2024 annual and interim financial statements. There were no impacts on previously reported cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities in any prior periods.

We evaluated the errors in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Nos. 99 and 108 and determined that the related impacts were not material in any previously issued annual or interim financial statements. We revised the prior period amounts presented in these financial statements to correct the errors. The applicable notes to the accompanying financial statements have also been corrected to reflect the impact of the revisions of the previously filed consolidated interim financial statements. A summary of the revisions to the previously issued financial information is included in Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No.16, Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

On December 14, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a final Accounting Standards Update ("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 and will expand our annual income tax disclosures, but will not affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

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.

On September 18, 2025, the FASB issued a final ASU to modernize the accounting for internal-use software. This update replaces the previous stage-based capitalization model with a principles-based approach, allowing capitalization of software development costs once management has authorized and committed funding and it is probable the project will be completed and perform its intended function. The ASU also consolidates guidance for website development under the internal-use software framework and expands applicability to cloud-based and agile development methods. The standards update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of this standards update on our accounting policies and disclosures.

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 $42 million and $670 million, respectively, at September 30, 2025, compared to $756 million and $805 million, respectively, at December 31, 2024. The goodwill associated with the reporting unit in our Asia Pacific segment was $42 million at September 30, 2025. The goodwill associated with the reporting units in our Americas and Asia Pacific segments was $715 million and $41 million, respectively, at December 31, 2024. Goodwill associated with the reporting unit in our Americas segment was allocated to assets held for sale in the second quarter of 2025 in the amount of $41 million in connection with the anticipated sale of our polymer chemicals business, and the remaining $674 million was written off, resulting in a non-cash impairment charge during the third quarter of 2025. We recorded an intangible asset impairment charge of $125 million in the third quarter of 2024 primarily related to our lower tier indefinite-lived intangible assets related to the acquisition of Cooper Tire.

In the third quarter of 2025, we experienced continued industry disruption in Americas, which resulted in a reduction in our near-term and long-term outlook. We also 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, combined with the reduction in outlook, we viewed these events as triggering events for purposes of testing goodwill for impairment and performed a quantitative analysis of the fair value of the North America reporting unit in our Americas segment. We determined the estimated fair value of our North America reporting unit based on discounted cash flow projections. The most critical assumptions used in the calculation of the fair value of our North America 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 and general economic conditions. Based on our interim impairment test, the fair value of the North America reporting unit as of September 30, 2025 was less than its carrying value, resulting in full goodwill impairment and a non-cash charge of $674 million during the third quarter of 2025.

At September 30, 2025, after evaluating macroeconomic conditions and our current and future results of operations, including current results for our Asia Pacific business and brands associated with our indefinite-lived intangible assets, we concluded that there were no triggering events and it was not more likely than not that the fair values of our reporting unit within our Asia Pacific segment or our indefinite-lived intangible assets recorded within our Americas and Asia Pacific segments were less than their respective carrying values and, therefore, did not have any impairment of those assets.

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 primarily carried at cost. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

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 September 30, 2025, Assets Held for Sale of $565 million, $468 million of which related to the sale of our Chemical business and $97 million of which related to the sale of the Dunlop brand, and Other Current Liabilities classified as held for sale of $150 million related to the sale of our Chemical business, were included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. At December 31, 2024, assets classified as held for sale of $466 million and liabilities classified as held for sale of $51 million related to the sale of our off-the-road ("OTR") tire business were included within Assets Held for Sale and Other Current Liabilities, respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 2, Divestitures, for additional information.

Restricted Cash

The following table provides a reconciliation of Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash as reported within the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:


	September 30,
(In millions)	2025		2024
Cash and Cash Equivalents	$	810	$	905
Restricted Cash	120		35
Total Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash	$	930	$	940

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. Restricted cash at September 30, 2025 also includes amounts collected in connection with ongoing agreements related to the sale of our OTR tire business. At both September 30, 2025 and 2024, restricted cash was recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
