Segmental Performance

In the reported quarter, the Americas segment generated revenues of $2.74 billion, which declined 4.2% year over year due to lower replacement volume. The segment registered an operating income of $206 million, which fell 18% from the year-ago period's figures. The operating income was hit by lower volume, inflation and other costs. 

Revenues in the Europe, Middle East and Africa segment were $1.41 billion, up 4.4% from the year-ago period's levels due to favorable foreign currency exchange rates and positive price/mix actions. The operating income for the segment was $30 million, up from $23 million reported in the year-ago quarter due to Goodyear Forward benefits and favorable net price/mix versus raw material costs.

Revenues in the Asia Pacific segment fell 18.9% year over year to $501 million due to lower replacement volume and the sale of the OTR tire business. The segment’s operating profit was $51 million, down 29.2% from the year-ago quarter’s figure due to the divestiture of the OTR tire business and lower replacement volume.
