Goodyear's Q2 2020 sales were $2.1 billion, a 41% decrease from the previous year. The company reported a net loss of $696 million, or $2.97 per share, compared to a net income of $54 million, or $0.23 per share, in the prior year. The decline was driven by lower industry volume and reduced sales from other tire-related businesses, partially offset by improvements in price/mix.
First half results significantly affected by COVID-19 pandemic.
Second quarter cash flow significantly better than expected.
Strong cash and liquidity position maintained; $3.9 billion available at quarter end.
Volume trends in key markets improved throughout the second quarter; China consumer replacement volume increased year-over-year in both May and June.
While we are encouraged to see industry demand gradually recovering in most major markets, our plans for the second half consider the challenges and uncertainties that remain.
