Reports Q1 revenue $4.3B, consensus $4.41B. “Our team kicked off the year by delivering the strongest quarter to date in benefits from Goodyear Forward and advanced our goal of building a high-performance culture that is designed to win,” said Chief Executive Officer and President Mark Stewart. “With the sale of the Dunlop brand, we are further optimizing our portfolio while strengthening our balance sheet – a critical component of our transformation plan. We remain committed to our targets, including segment operating margin of 10 percent and leverage of 2.0x-2.5x in the fourth quarter of this year.”
