Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. (GT) shares deflated in Monday's extended trading after the tire maker reported fourth-quarter results that showed a mixed performance, with earnings missing the mark despite revenue gains.
The Numbers: Goodyear reported quarterly earnings of 39 cents per share, falling short of the consensus estimate of 47 cents by roughly 18%. Revenue came in at $4.92 billion, topping analyst expectations of $4.84 billion but slipping from $4.95 billion in the same period last year. The company moved 42.3 million tire units during the quarter.
Here's the interesting part: despite the earnings miss, the company actually posted its strongest segment operating income and margins in more than seven years. That's not nothing.
"We delivered another strong quarter, driven by execution of our Goodyear Forward plan," said CEO Mark Stewart.
Stewart acknowledged the road ahead looks bumpy, noting challenging industry conditions in the first quarter. But he emphasized the company is "operating with greater focus and discipline on the elements within our control — much as we did throughout 2025 — to navigate the current environment."
Market Reaction: Investors weren't impressed by the earnings miss, sending Goodyear stock down 6.37% to $9.85 in after-hours trading.
