EXHIBIT 99.1
THE GOODYEAR TIRE & RUBBER COMPANY
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company's (the "Company") wholly-owned subsidiary, C.A. Goodyear de Venezuela, manufactures, markets and distributes consumer and commercial tires throughout Venezuela. Evolving conditions in Venezuela, including currency exchange control regulations and continued reductions in access to U.S. dollars through official currency exchange mechanisms, have resulted in an other-than-temporary lack of exchangeability between the Venezuelan bolivar fuerte and the U.S. dollar, and have restricted the ability of the Venezuelan subsidiary to pay dividends and royalties and to settle liabilities. These currency exchange regulations, combined with other government regulations such as price and profit margin controls and strict labor laws, have increasingly limited the Company's ability to make and execute operational decisions at the Venezuelan subsidiary. This lack of currency exchangeability, combined with these other operating restrictions, have significantly limited the Venezuelan subsidiary's ability to maintain normal production and control over its operations. The Company expects these conditions to continue for the foreseeable future.
As a result of these conditions, the Company concluded that effective as of December 31, 2015, the Company does not meet the accounting criteria for control over the Venezuelan subsidiary and began reporting the results of the Venezuelan subsidiary using the cost method of accounting. This change resulted in a pre-tax charge of $646 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. The pre-tax charge includes the derecognition of the carrying amounts of the Venezuelan subsidiary's assets and liabilities, including $320 million of Cash and Cash Equivalents, that are no longer reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015. The pre-tax charge also includes $248 million of foreign currency translation losses and pension losses previously included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company has determined the fair value of its investment in, and receivables from, the Venezuelan subsidiary to be insignificant based on the expectations of dividend payments and settlements of such receivables in future periods.
The following unaudited pro forma Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2015 is based on the Consolidated Statement of Operations of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, and is adjusted to reflect the deconsolidation of the Venezuelan subsidiary. The unaudited pro forma Consolidated Statement of Operations gives effect to the deconsolidation of the Venezuelan subsidiary as if it had occurred on January 1, 2015. The deconsolidation was fully reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015 as presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, and therefore a pro forma balance sheet is not required.
The unaudited pro forma Consolidated Statement of Operations does not necessarily reflect what the Company's results of operations would have been had the deconsolidation occurred on January 1, 2015. It also may not be useful in predicting the future results of the Company. The actual results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.
The unaudited pro forma Consolidated Statement of Operations should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
