AKRON, Ohio, October 29, 2013 – The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company today reported higher earnings for the third quarter of 2013.

“Our third quarter results, announced just weeks after our recent Investor Day, demonstrate continued sustainable earnings growth and the type of disciplined execution needed to deliver on our targets in 2013 and beyond,” said Richard J. Kramer, chairman and chief executive officer.

“As the industry continues to recover, we see strong volume growth in the segments we are targeting,” he added. “While we continue to be disciplined in our approach, we are seeing growth in unit volumes, including in our North America business, driven by the Goodyear brand.”

All four of Goodyear’s regional businesses achieved higher operating income in the quarter compared to the year-ago period, with North America posting record third quarter operating income. Three businesses posted higher tire unit volumes than last year.

“We now expect to see record segment operating income of more than $1.5 billion in 2013, and continue to target 10 percent to 15 percent annual growth in segment operating income through 2016. As previously announced, we will take the first steps in our capital allocation plan in the fourth quarter with our reinstated quarterly dividend,” Kramer said. Additionally, the company continues to target positive cash flow, excluding pension pre-funding, through 2016.

Goodyear’s third quarter 2013 sales were $5.0 billion, compared to $5.3 billion a year ago. Third quarter 2013 sales reflect $82 million in higher tire unit volumes, more than offset by $178 million in lower sales in other tire-related businesses, most notably a decrease in the price and volume of third-party chemical sales; $89 million in lower price/mix, despite continued favorable mix; and $77 million in unfavorable foreign currency translation. Tire unit volumes totaled 42.6 million, up 2 percent from 2012.

The company reported segment operating income of $431 million in the third quarter of 2013. This was up 24 percent from the year-ago quarter, reflecting favorable price/mix net of raw materials of $87 million (excluding raw material cost savings), lower unabsorbed overhead of $18 million due to higher production levels and $14 million in higher tire unit volumes, partially offset by $40 million in higher SAG expenses and $10 million in unfavorable foreign currency translation. See the note at the end of this release for further explanation and a segment operating income reconciliation table.

Goodyear’s third quarter 2013 net income available to common shareholders was $166 million (62 cents per share), a third quarter record and up 51 percent from $110 million (41 cents per share) in the 2012 quarter. All per share amounts are diluted.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release presents total segment operating income and free cash flow from operations, on a historical basis, which are important financial measures for the company but are not financial measures defined by U.S. GAAP.

Total segment operating income is the sum of the individual strategic business units’ segment operating income as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes that total segment operating income is useful because it represents the aggregate value of income created by the company’s SBUs and excludes items not directly related to the SBUs for performance evaluation purposes.

Free cash flow from operations is the company’s cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP before pension contributions and direct payments and rationalization payments, less capital expenditures. Management believes that free cash flow from operations 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.

See the tables below for reconciliations of historical total segment operating income and free cash flow from operations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. This earnings release also presents total segment operating income on a forward-looking basis. The company is unable to reconcile forward-looking total segment operating income without unreasonable efforts because management cannot predict, with sufficient certainty, the various elements necessary to provide such a reconciliation.
