The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company Q3 2026 earnings summary
Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.Q3 2026 earnings summary5 Nov, 2026
Executive summary
Q3 net sales were $4.540B and segment operating income was $174M, down $113M YoY; earnings improved sequentially but remained below expectations.
Lower tire volume, divestitures and higher conversion costs pressured results; favorable price/mix and Goodyear Forward savings partly offset the impact.
Priorities include premium product mix, structural cost reduction and manufacturing-footprint optimization; a transformation office is assessing broader changes to support consistent free cash flow.
Financial highlights
Sales were $4,540M, down 2.3% YoY; organic sales rose 1.6% excluding divestitures, while tire units declined 3.3% to 38.6M.
Segment operating income was $174M versus $287M; the decline was $57M excluding Chemical and Dunlop divestitures. Q3 margin was 3.8%, down 2.4 points.
Net loss was $238M, or $(0.82) per share, versus $2,195M, or $(7.62), in Q3 2025; adjusted net loss was $31M, or $(0.11) per share.
Free cash flow was $(283)M versus $(181)M a year earlier; operating cash flow was $(144)M. Capital expenditures were $139M versus $183M.
Gross margin was 15.9%, down 2.3 points; SG&A was $665M, down 1.6%. Q3 SOI bridge included price/mix +$105M, Goodyear Forward +$90M, inflation -$69M and other operational costs -$40M.
Outlook and guidance
Q4 global tire volumes are expected to decline slightly YoY; unabsorbed overhead is expected to reduce SOI by ~$45M.
Q4 assumptions include price/mix +$60M, Goodyear Forward +$110M, raw-material costs -$170M, and inflation and other costs -$110M; raw-material pressure is expected to persist through H1 2027.
Q4 comparison adjustments include $44M for divested businesses and $56M for a non-recurring 2025 insurance settlement; comparable SOI starting base is $316M.
FY2026 assumptions include ~$675M CapEx, ~$210M rationalization payments, ~$175M cash taxes, ~$25M pension contributions and ~$425M interest expense; cash use is expected at $300M–$400M.
2027 volumes are expected to remain broadly consistent with current conditions; passenger-vehicle production forecasts indicate ~1% growth and heavy-truck builds mid-single-digit growth.

Frequently asked questions
The Company Behind the Blimp
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company is an American company with global operations specializing in tire manufacturing and rubber products. The company develops, manufactures, markets, and distributes tires for most applications, including automobiles, commercial trucks, light trucks, motorcycles, and much more. In addition to tires, the company also offers rubber products and polymers for various industrial and consumer markets. Goodyear is headquartered in Akron, Ohio, and its shares are listed on the Nasdaq.
An Akron Company
Goodyear was founded in 1898 by Frank Seiberling in Akron, Ohio. The company got its name after Charles Goodyear, the inventor of vulcanized rubber, although he had no direct association with the company. Initially, Goodyear manufactured bicycle and carriage tires, horseshoe pads, and poker chips.
The advent of the automobile brought rapid growth for Goodyear, and in the years around World War II, the demand for tires grew with the automobile boom. Goodyear expanded internationally during this period and became one of the largest tire manufacturers in the world, something which it continues to be to this day. Some other companies operating in the same sector are Pirelli, Michelin, and Bridgestone.
The Right Tire for the Job
The company makes regular tires for passenger cars and commercial vehicles and offers a range of options in this category. Goodyear also has a significant presence in the racing and performance vehicle market. These tires are engineered for high-speed stability and enhanced grip, catering to both professional motorsports and consumer markets for high-performance vehicles. Goodyear also manufactures tires for off-road and all-terrain vehicles, focusing on versatility and durability.
To summarize - if something needs tires, chances are that Goodyear manufactures a model that fits. The lineup of tires includes everything from massive tractor tires to models for airplane landing gear, and its offerings are incredibly diverse.
Not Just Tires
Besides its core tire manufacturing, Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company is involved in several other product areas. One of these is the production of rubber products for industrial applications, such as rubber belts and hoses. In addition to these, Goodyear also produces a range of chemical products. These chemicals are often used in the rubber and plastics industries, among others, and include synthetic rubber and latex substances.
