Core Viewpoint - Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co reported disappointing second-quarter results, with a loss of $0.17 per share, missing analyst expectations of a profit of $0.07 per share, primarily due to the impact of tariffs and global trade disruptions [1][2][8]. Financial Performance - The company's revenue for the second quarter was $4.46 billion, slightly below analyst estimates of $4.47 billion [2]. - This marks the second consecutive quarter where Goodyear has missed earnings per share estimates and revenue expectations, having missed revenue estimates in nine of the last ten quarters [8].
