Segment Results

The company reported total segment operating income of $416 million in Q4 2025, compared to $382 million from a year ago. After adjusting for the impact of the sales of its Off-the-Road (OTR) tire and Chemical businesses of $30 million, organic segment operating income increased $64 million, or 18%. The increase in segment operating income reflects benefits from Goodyear Forward of $192 million and favorable price/mix versus raw material costs of $197 million, offset by inflation, tariffs, and other costs of $227 million, and the impact of lower volume of $92 million, Goodyear said in a release.

Goodyear Forward

Goodyear Forward delivered $192 million of benefits in Q$ of 2025. “Since inception, the program has generated $1.25 billion of cumulative segment operating income benefits, exceeding its original commitment by approximately $150 million. At the end of 2025, the company had reached a $1.5 billion run-rate over the two-year program.

“Additionally, in 2025, Goodyear generated $2.3 billion of proceeds from divestitures and other asset sales, including the sales of its Chemical and OTR businesses and the Dunlop brand, which were primarily used to reduce debt. This exceeded the Company’s asset sale proceeds target by approximately $300 million,” Goodyear said.
