    "The sale of the Dunlop brand is another action that advances Goodyear Forward by optimizing our portfolio, reducing leverage and sharpening our focus on our core portfolio of brands," said Goodyear Chief Executive Officer and President Mark Stewart. "Goodyear is making significant progress, transforming our operations and growing in our targeted segments, and I am confident in our ability to continue delivering on our objectives."

    Gross cash proceeds at closing totaled $735 million, comprised of $526 million for the Dunlop brand, $105 million for a transition support fee and $104 million for inventory. Goodyear intends to use the transaction proceeds to reduce leverage in connection with the Goodyear Forward transformation plan.

    Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC acted as the lead financial advisor; Barclays Capital Inc. acted as financial advisor; and Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP acted as legal advisor to Goodyear.
