About this Report


The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (“Goodyear”) has a long-standing commitment to sustainability reporting, having published annual corporate responsibility reports since 1996.
Goodyear works to create value for our stakeholders by identifying opportunities and risks, developing strategies to address both and collaborating with our customers and suppliers to
understand their own goals and how we can work together to help achieve them.

This report covers activities and events that occurred during the 2022 calendar year, which aligns with Goodyear financial reporting and includes information for all global Goodyear
operations, including subsidiaries where the company has a controlling ownership. In June 2021, Goodyear finalized the acquisition of Cooper Tire & Rubber Company (Cooper). Data and
activities from legacy Cooper facilities are included in our Goodyear reporting numbers, unless otherwise noted.

In 2022, Goodyear, under the leadership of the Better Future Steering Committee,
refreshed our materiality assessment using the double materiality process, which
looks at both a company’s inward and outward impacts. This type of materiality
assessment examines the full scope of a company’s value chain and product
portfolio.

In early 2023, Goodyear aligned with our leadership on these updated high-priority
topics and focus areas. During 2023, we plan to identify current goals, close any
goal gaps and confirm and/or establish the ongoing management approach to these
topics. We will report on our management of the updated high-priority topics in our

ABOUT GOODYEAR Goodyear’s Climate Strategy

When it comes to strategies to pursue for decarbonization, Goodyear utilizes Life


Cycle Assessments (LCAs) to evaluate materials quantitatively through the entire
life of the product—from the sourcing of raw materials to the end of the product’s
life. Each LCA is performed using internationally recognized ISO frameworks that
help provide a full picture of product impacts as well as opportunities for
improvement that can be used in product development. Goodyear collaborated with
the Tire Industry Project (TIP) to develop Product Category Rules (PCRs) for
evaluating impacts from tires. LCAs assist Goodyear in determining lower-
emissions materials to pursue.

One of Goodyear’s most significant emissions-reduction activities in 2022 was the


advancement in acquiring additional renewable electricity in our operations. In
2022, Goodyear reached 34% renewable electricity at global manufacturing
facilities and 100% renewable electricity at our manufacturing facilities in EMEA.
Learn more in our Responsible Operations section of this report.

In 2022, Goodyear continued to build our climate ambition into key business
processes, such as our capital planning process. This work will continue in 2023,
further integrating our climate ambition into key corporate and functional
processes.

Performance against Goodyear’s Climate Ambition In 2021, combined Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions decreased by more than 2% from
our 2019 baseline. Energy efficiency projects and the increase of renewable
electricity in our manufacturing operations led to a decrease in Scope 2 emissions.

ABOUT GOODYEAR Goodyear’s Climate Strategy

In 2022, Goodyear conducted a climate-related risks and opportunities


materiality assessment, a qualitative scenario analysis and financial impact
assessment to identify and prioritize climate-related risks and opportunities
relevant to Goodyear’s value chain. Complete details can be found in Goodyear’s
latest TCFD report, published in December 2022.

Goodyear’s climate-related risks and opportunities will be evaluated on an annual


basis, led by Goodyear's Global Sustainability leadership, Chief Risk Officer and
Chief Financial Officer. The aim is to ensure an up-to-date view of potential
climate-related risks and opportunities in the short, medium and long term, and an
understanding of the significance of impacts, including under different climate
scenarios. Goodyear will evaluate and potentially adjust inputs, parameters,
assumptions, data and analytical choices annually. Goodyear will use this analysis
to evaluate our adaptation and resiliency strategies. Goodyear will continue to
report the details of this analysis and strategic responses through our annual CDP
and TCFD reports.

While strategy-specific decarbonization roadmaps are being built to 2030, various


materials, energy and transport strategies are being implemented. For example,
Goodyear is actively pursuing bio-based, recycled and carbon-neutral materials,
further investing in energy efficiency projects and additional renewable energy, and
evaluating and implementing emissions-optimized transportation and warehousing
options. These strategies will be reported in next year’s Corporate Responsibility
Report.

Smart: Inspiring Students to Reach Their Full Potential


Driving Opportunity – In 2021, the Goodyear Foundation launched the Driving
Opportunity Scholars Program with The University of Akron, which supports full
tuition and fees for 15 undergraduate students majoring in in-demand fields for
Goodyear. Each student is assigned a Goodyear Corporate Mentor in their area of
interest to help guide them through various challenges associated with college and
beginning their careers. In 2022, the first cohort of students completed Goodyear
internships, gaining first-hand experience and learning in the workplace. In
addition, the next five scholarship recipients were welcomed into the program and
began their studies at the University of Akron.

STEM Career Day – Goodyear’s annual STEM Career Day encourages students to
pursue opportunities in various science, technology, engineering and mathematics
disciplines through creative and engaging projects. In 2022, Goodyear hosted high
school and middle school events to engage, challenge and educate STEM students.
Through hands-on activities, engineering challenges and mentorship conversation
with Goodyear associates, these students were immersed in STEM and what a
career in a STEM field could look like for them. Additionally, scholarships were
awarded to STEM Career Day participants pursuing degrees in designated STEM
disciplines.

After-School Activities – Associates from Goodyear’s San Luis Potosí location took
part in the Global Week of Volunteering by assisting a local organization called Club
de Niños y Niñas. This club provides a healthy and safe educational space for
students once the school day is done. The students can engage in study groups, art
activities and sports teams. Goodyear volunteers repaired and beautified the
outdoor space for the club, including sports fields.

Sustainable: Reducing Our Environmental Impact


Cleanup and Tree Planting – Goodyear associates in our Philippines location
committed to helping the local environment as part of the Global Week of
Volunteering. These volunteers cleaned up waste from an 11-km stretch of Marikina
Park, and afterwards planted tree saplings to beautify the area.

Trail Cleanup – Akron-based associates cleaned multiple locations used as walking


paths in the community during the Global Week of Volunteering. Partnering with the
Ohio & Erie Canalway Coalition, volunteers cleaned and landscaped around the
Howe House, a scenic building in Downtown Akron that connects to the historic
Towpath Trail. Volunteers also assisted the Western Reserve Land Conservancy
with cleanup of a trail located close to Goodyear HQ, clearing downed branches and
litter that blocked the way of those enjoying the trail.

Community Preservation – Slovenian Goodyear associates went above and beyond


to improve and sustain landmarks in their community. These volunteers completed
a series of projects throughout the year, ranging from maintenance of cultural
heritage sites to beautification of a kindergarten and many more. Their dedication
helps ensure their community and history will continue to be enjoyed by all for years
to come.

Goodyear Blimps: Cruising for Communities


The Goodyear Blimps have supported communities and non-profit organizations
since 1925, when the Santa Claus Express toy-giving program began. For more than
95 years, Goodyear Blimps have remained committed to dedicating a portion of
operational time to community giving.

2022 marked the 12th year of Goodyear’s collaboration with the Marine Corps Toys
for Tots program, which began by using Goodyear’s Blimp bases to generate
donations of toys and cash and has since grown to several retail stores. In 2022, the
program raised a total of $14,337 and received its second largest toy donation count
ever, providing 22,657 toys for families during the holiday season. Since 2010, the
Goodyear Blimp Toys for Tots events have generated more than 215,000 toys and
over $525,000.

Goodyear also regularly provides blimp ride certificates for charity, generating
millions of dollars for nonprofits. In 2022, Goodyear provided 185 ride certificates in
local communities, which generated over $375,000 to benefit the recipient
nonprofits’ missions and work in the community, more than doubling the dollars
raised in 2021.

Upholding High Ethical Standards


Goodyear’s long-standing commitment to upholding high ethical standards
influences everything from talent attraction, retention and engagement to our
ability to maintain our competitive edge and avoid unnecessary risk to the business.
Compliance & Ethics (C&E) operates at this intersection, emphasizing the
importance of acting with integrity and delivering value in several ways:

• C&E provides updates on ethics and compliance activities to the Board of


Directors multiple times per year. The Board Committee on Corporate
Responsibility and Compliance reviews the activities and processes designed to
uphold our commitment to ethical behavior.

• Global and regional C&E Committees—composed of top company leaders from


business and functional areas—meet several times a year to discuss compliance
and ethics matters, initiatives and training, and update policies and procedures
as needed.

• The department ensures that all salaried associates annually review and affirm
