SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2024
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES General Information Whirlpool Corporation, a Delaware corporation, manufactures products in six countries and markets products in nearly every country around the world under brand names such as Whirlpool , KitchenAid , Maytag , Consul , Brastemp , Amana , JennAir, and InSinkErator . We conduct our business through four operating segments, which we define based on product category and geography. Whirlpool Corporation's operating and reportable segments consist of Major Domestic Appliances (“MDA”) North America; MDA Latin America; MDA Asia; and Small Domestic Appliances (“SDA”) Global. The MDA Europe segment was deconsolidated as of April 1, 2024 upon the completion of the contribution agreement transaction with Arcelik. For additional information, see Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Change in Presentation In 2024, the Company changed its rounding presentation. Certain columns and rows within the consolidated financial statements and tables presented may not add due to rounding and percentages have been calculated from the underlying whole-dollar amounts. This change is not material and does not impact the comparability of our consolidated financial statements Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, and include all majority-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. We do not consolidate the financial statements of any company in which we have an ownership interest of 50% or less, unless that company is deemed to be a variable interest entity ("VIE") of which we are the primary beneficiary. VIEs are consolidated when the company is the primary beneficiary of these entities and has the ability to directly impact the activities of these entities. Our primary business purpose and involvement with VIEs is for product development and distribution. Risks and Uncertainties The Consolidated Financial Statements presented herein reflect estimates and assumptions made by management at December 31, 2024 and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024. These estimates and assumptions affect, among other things, the Company’s goodwill, long-lived asset and indefinite-lived intangible asset valuation; inventory valuation; assessment of the annual effective tax rate; valuation of deferred income taxes and income tax contingencies; and the allowance for expected credit losses and bad debt. Events and changes in circumstances arising after February 13, 2025, including those resulting from the impacts of macroeconomic volatility, as well as the ongoing international conflicts, will be reflected in management’s estimates for future periods. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets We continue to monitor the significant global economic uncertainty to assess the outlook for demand for our products and the impact on our business and our overall financial performance. The results of the annual assessment performed as of October 1, 2024 determined that the carrying value of our Maytag trademark exceeded its fair value by $381 million. The trademark remains at risk for future impairment at December 31, 2024. The InSinkErator trademark is also at risk for impairment at December 31, 2024. The goodwill in our reporting units or other indefinite-lived intangible assets are not presently at risk for future impairment. The potential impact of demand disruptions, production impacts or supply constraints along with a number of other factors could negatively effect revenues for the Maytag and InSinkErator trademarks, but we remain committed to the strategic actions necessary to realize the long-term forecasted revenues and profitability of these trademarks. A lack of recovery or further deterioration in market conditions, a sustained trend of weaker than expected financial performance for our Maytag and InSinkErator trademarks, among other factors, as a result of macroeconomic factors or other unforeseen events could result in an impairment charge in future periods which could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements. Income taxes Under U.S. GAAP, the Company calculates its quarterly tax provision based on an estimated effective tax rate for the year and then adjusts this amount by certain discrete items each quarter. Potential changing and volatile macroeconomic conditions could cause fluctuations in forecasted earnings before income taxes. As such, the Company's effective tax rate could be subject to volatility as forecasted earnings before income taxes are impacted by events which cannot be predicted. In addition, potential future economic deterioration brought on by global events beyond our control or other factors, such as potential sales of businesses and new tax legislation may negatively impact the realizability and/or valuation of certain deferred tax assets. Reclassifications We reclassified certain prior period amounts in the Consolidated Financial Statements to conform with current year presentation. Use of Estimates We are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes. The most significant assumptions are estimates in determining the fair value of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, assets held for sale, legal contingencies, income taxes and pension and other postretirement benefits. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with our customers are satisfied, the sales price is determinable, and the risk and rewards of ownership are transferred. Generally the risk and rewards of ownership are transferred with the transfer of control of our products and services. For the majority of our sales, control is transferred to the customer as soon as products are shipped. For a portion of our sales, control is transferred to the customer upon receipt of products at the customer's location. Sales are net of allowances for product returns, which are based on historical return rates and certain promotions. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Sales Incentives The cost of sales incentives is accrued at the date at which revenue is recognized by Whirlpool as a reduction of revenue. If new incentives are added after the product has been shipped, then they are accrued at that time, also as a reduction of revenue. These accrued promotions are recognized based on the expected value amount of incentives that will be ultimately claimed by trade customers or consumers. If the amount of incentives cannot be reasonably estimated, an accrued promotion liability is recognized for the maximum potential amount. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Expected Credit Losses We carry accounts receivable at sales value less an allowance for expected credit losses. We estimate our expected credit losses primarily by using an aging methodology and establish customer-specific reserves for higher risk trade customers. Our expected credit losses are evaluated and controlled within each geographic region considering the unique credit risk specific to the country, marketplace and economic environment. We take into account a combination of specific customer circumstances, credit conditions, market conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions and the history of write-offs and collections in developing the reserve. We evaluate items on an individual basis when determining accounts receivable write-offs. In general, our policy is to not charge interest on trade receivables after the invoice becomes past due. A receivable is considered past due if payment has not been received within agreed upon invoice terms. Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets In an effort to manage economic and geographic trade customer risk, from time to time, the Company will transfer, primarily without recourse, accounts receivable balances of certain customers to financial institutions resulting in a nominal impact recorded in interest and sundry (income) expense. These transactions are accounted for as sales of the receivables resulting in the receivables being de-recognized from the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These transfers do not require continuing involvement from the Company. Certain arrangements include servicing of transferred receivables by Whirlpool. Outstanding accounts receivable transferred under arrangements where the Company continues to service the transferred asset was $183 million and $227 million as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The amount of cash proceeds received under these arrangements was $574 million and $379 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Freight and Warehousing Costs We classify freight and warehousing costs within cost of products sold in our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). Cash and Cash Equivalents All highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less are considered cash equivalents. Short-term investments are primarily comprised of money market funds and highly liquid, low risk investments with initial maturities less than 90 days. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Fair Value Measurements We measure fair value based on an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, a three-tiered fair value hierarchy is established, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: (Level 1) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; (Level 2) inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable, either directly or indirectly; and (Level 3) unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Certain investments are valued based on net asset value (NAV), which approximates fair value. Such basis is determined by referencing the respective fund's underlying assets. There are no unfunded commitments or other restrictions associated with these investments. We had Level 3 assets at December 31, 2024 and 2023 that included pension plan assets disclosed in Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. We had no Level 3 liabilities at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We measured fair value for money market funds, available for sale investments and held-to-maturity securities using quoted market prices in active markets for identical or comparable assets. We measured fair value for derivative contracts, all of which have counterparties with high credit ratings, based on model driven valuations using significant inputs derived from observable market data. We also measured fair value for disposal groups held for sale based on the expected proceeds received from the sale. For assets measured at net asset values, we have no unfunded commitments or significant restraints. We measured fair value (non-recurring) for goodwill and other intangibles using a discounted cash flow model and a relief-from-royalty method, respectively, with inputs based on both observable and unobservable market data. Inventories MDA North America and MDA Europe (through Q1 2024) reporting segments use the FIFO method of inventory valuation. MDA Latin America and MDA Asia inventories are stated at average cost. SDA Global consists of both inventory valuation methods. Costs include materials, labor and production overhead at normal production capacity. Costs do not exceed net realizable values. Property Property is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. For production machinery and equipment, we record depreciation based on units produced, unless units produced drop below a minimum threshold at which point depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method. For certain acquired production assets, we depreciate costs based on the straight-line method. Property, plant and equipment and related accumulated depreciation of all divested businesses have been removed. For additional information, see Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Depreciation expense for property, including accelerated depreciation classified as restructuring expense in our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss), was $302 million, $321 million and $440 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Depreciation of our European major domestic appliance business was suspended from December 2022 onwards due to the disposal group being classified as held for sale and measured at fair value less cost to sell. The following table summarizes our property at December 31, 2024 and 2023: Millions of dollars 2024 2023 Estimated Useful Life Land $ 36 $ 29 n/a Buildings 981 893 10 to 50 years Machinery and equipment 6,673 6,571 3 to 20 years Accumulated depreciation (5,414) (5,259) Property plant and equipment, net $ 2,275 $ 2,234 We classify gains and losses associated with asset dispositions in the same line item as the underlying depreciation of the disposed asset in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). During the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, we disposed of buildings, machinery and equipment with a net carrying value of $7 million, compared to $16 million in prior year. The net loss on the disposals is immaterial for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024. The net gain on the disposals was immaterial for the same period of 2023 and was primarily driven by a sale-leaseback transaction. We record impairment losses on long-lived assets, excluding goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles, when events and circumstances indicate the assets may be impaired and the estimated undiscounted future cash flows generated by those assets are less than their carrying amounts. Excluding assets held for sale, there were no significant impairments recorded during 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. For additional information, see Notes 10 and 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Capitalization of Internal Use Software Costs We capitalize certain computer software development costs associated with qualifying application development stage activities or the acquisition of computer software for internal use. Capitalization is determined based on specific criteria, including whether the software is in the development stage and meets defined criteria for capitalization. Capitalized software costs are recognized as part of property, plant, and equipment and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the software, generally not exceeding five years. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, capitalized software costs, net of accumulated depreciation, amounted to $141 million and $135 million, respectively. These amounts are included in the Machinery and Equipment category in the Property section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The depreciation expense recorded for these assets was $5 million, $3 million, and $2 million for the twelve months ended 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. There were no significant impairments recorded during 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Leases We determine if an arrangement contains a lease at contract inception and determine the lease term by assuming the exercise of those renewal options that are reasonably assured. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We elect to not separate lease and non-lease components for all leases. As the Company's lease agreements normally do not provide an implicit interest rate, we apply the Company's incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future lease payments. Relevant information used in determining the Company's incremental borrowing rate includes the duration of the lease, location of the lease, and the Company's credit risk relative to risk-free market rates. Certain leases also include options to purchase the underlying asset at fair market value. If leased assets have leasehold improvements, typically the depreciable life of those leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term. Additionally, certain lease agreements include lease payment adjustments for inflation. Goodwill and Other Intangibles We perform our annual impairment assessment for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of October 1st and more frequently if indicators of impairment exist. We consider qualitative factors to assess if it is more likely than not that the fair value for goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets is below the carrying amount. We may also elect to bypass the qualitative assessment and perform a quantitative assessment. In conducting a qualitative assessment, the Company analyzes a variety of events or factors that may influence the fair value of the reporting unit or indefinite-lived intangible asset, including, but not limited to: macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial performance, share price and other relevant factors. Goodwill We have four reporting units which we assess for impairment which also represent our operating segments and are defined as Major Domestic Appliances ("MDA") North America, MDA Latin America, MDA Asia, and Small Domestic Appliances ("SDA") Global. In performing a quantitative assessment of goodwill, we estimate each reporting unit's fair value using the best information available to us, including market information and discounted cash flow projections, also referred to as the income approach. The income approach uses the reporting unit's projections of estimated operating results and cash flows and discounts them using a market participant discount rate based on a weighted-average cost of capital. We further validate our estimates of fair value under the income approach by incorporating the market approach. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, no impairment loss is measured. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, then a goodwill impairment loss is measured at the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. For additional information, see Notes 5 and 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Intangible Assets We perform a quantitative assessment of other indefinite-lived intangible assets, which are primarily comprised of trademarks. We estimate the fair value of these intangible assets using the relief-from-royalty method, which primarily requires assumptions related to projected revenues from our long-range plan, assumed royalty rates that could be payable if we did not own the trademark, and a market participant discount rate based on a weighted-average cost of capital. Other definite-life intangible assets are amortized over their useful life and are assessed for impairment when impairment indicators are present. For additional information, see Notes 5 and 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Supply Chain Financing Arrangements The Company has ongoing agreements globally with various third-parties to allow certain suppliers the opportunity to sell receivables due from us to participating financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institutions. We have no economic interest in the sale of these receivables and no direct financial relationship with the financial institutions concerning these services. Our obligations to suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment terms, are not impacted. All outstanding balances under these programs are recorded in accounts payable Millions of dollars Outstanding Obligations Confirmed obligations outstanding as of December 31, 2023 $ 843 Invoices confirmed during the period 2,452 Confirmed invoices paid during the period (2,431) Impact of foreign currency (70) Confirmed obligations outstanding as of December 31, 2024 $ 794 Obligations outstanding and activities during the period related to our European major domestic appliance business have been excluded from the table above. There were no obligations outstanding as of December 31, 2024 related to our former Europe major domestic appliance business. Obligations outstanding amounted to $383 million as of December 31, 2023. Derivative Financial Instruments We use derivative instruments designated as cash flow, fair value and net investment hedges to manage our exposure to the volatility in material costs, foreign currency and interest rates on certain debt instruments. Changes in the fair value of derivative assets or liabilities (i.e., gains or losses) are recognized depending upon the type of hedging relationship and whether a hedge has been designated. For those derivative instruments that qualify for hedge accounting, we designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a cash flow hedge, fair value hedge, or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. For a derivative instrument designated as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is recognized in earnings immediately with the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item. For a derivative instrument designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the derivative's gain or loss is initially reported as a component of Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and is subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged exposure affects earnings. For a derivative instrument designated as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, the effective portion of the derivative's gain or loss is reported in Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) as part of the cumulative translation adjustment. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognized immediately in current net earnings. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information about hedges and derivative financial instruments. Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are translated into United States dollars at exchange rates existing at the respective balance sheet dates. Translation adjustments resulting from fluctuations in exchange rates are recorded as a separate component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). The results of operations of foreign subsidiaries are translated at the average exchange rates during the respective periods. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in net earnings. Research and Development Costs Research and development costs are charged to expense and totaled $405 million, $473 million and $465 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Advertising Costs Advertising costs are charged to expense when the advertisement is first communicated and totaled $264 million, $392 million and $329 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Income Taxes and Indirect Tax Matters We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted rates. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets is recognized in income in the period of the enactment date. We recognize, primarily in other noncurrent liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, the effects of uncertain income tax positions. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are reflected in income tax expense. We record liabilities, net of the amount, after determining it is more likely than not that the uncertain tax position will not be sustained upon examination based on its technical merits. We accrue for indirect tax contingencies when we determine that a loss is probable and the amount or range of loss is reasonably estimable. Provision is made for taxes on undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries and related companies to the extent that such earnings are not deemed to be permanently invested. See Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Share-based Incentive Plans Share-based compensation expense is based on the grant date fair value and is expensed over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (generally the vesting period). The Company's Share-based incentive plans include stock options, performance stock units, and restricted stock units, among other award types. The fair value of stock options are determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which incorporates assumptions regarding the risk-free interest rate, expected volatility, expected option life, expected forfeitures and dividend yield. Expected forfeitures are based on historical experience. Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing stock price on the date of grant. The fair value of restricted stock units and performance stock units is generally based on the closing market price of Whirlpool common stock on the grant date. Share-based compensation is recorded in selling, general and administrative expense on our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). See Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Acquisitions We include the results of operations of the businesses in which we acquire a controlling financial interest in our Consolidated Financial Statements beginning as of the acquisition date. On the acquisition date, we recognize, separate from goodwill, the assets acquired, including separately identifiable intangible assets, and the liabilities assumed based on the preliminary purchase price allocation. The excess of the consideration transferred over the fair values assigned to the net identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired business is recognized as goodwill. Transaction costs are recognized separately from the acquisition and are expensed as incurred. We may adjust preliminary amounts recognized at the acquisition date to their subsequently determined acquisition-date fair values during the measurement period which is twelve months from acquisition date. For additional information, see Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Equity Method Investments Our primary equity method investments include partial ownership in Whirlpool China, an entity that was previously controlled by the Company, and partial ownership in Beko Europe B.V. (Beko), a newly formed entity resulting from the April 1, 2024 transaction with Arcelik. Whirlpool China and Beko are considered related parties. For additional information, see Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The following table summarizes the amounts related to the Company's primary equity method investments during the periods presented.

As of December 31, 2024, the carrying amount of the investment is $74 million, reflecting the recognition of equity method investment losses during the year, which includes restructuring charges of $74 million. The fair value of our investment in Whirlpool China, based on the quoted market price, is $193 million as of December 31, 2024. Management has concluded that there are no indicators of other than temporary impairment related to these investments. The following table summarizes the amounts recorded related to the Company's primary equity method investments during the periods presented. Millions of dollars Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2024 2023 Accounts Payable $ 101 $ 91 Purchases $ 261 $ 303 The licensing revenue from our equity method investments and their subsidiaries is not material for the periods presented. There are also no material accounts receivable or sales with these investments for the periods presented. The Company’s share of the results of equity method investments and elimination of intra-entity results are included in the Equity method investment income (loss), net of tax in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). The investment balance is reflected within other noncurrent assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the Other/Eliminations column within the Segment Information footnote. For additional information, see Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Related Party Transaction As of December 31, 2024, the Company's majority-owned subsidiary, Whirlpool India, holds a 97% controlling equity ownership in Elica PB India, following an additional acquisition of 10% equity interest during the third quarter of 2024. Elica PB India is consolidated in Whirlpool Corporation's financial statements and reported within our MDA Asia reportable segment. Elica PB India is a VIE for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The carrying amount of goodwill amounts to $86 million and the carrying amount of customer relationships, which are included in Other intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization, amounts to $26 million as of December 31, 2024. Other assets or liabilities of Elica PB India are not material to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company. Both Whirlpool India and the non-controlling interest shareholders retain an option for Whirlpool India to purchase the remaining equity interest in Elica PB India for fair value, which could be material to the financial statements of the Company, depending on the performance of the business. Adoption of New Accounting Standards On January 1, 2025, we adopted the FASB issued Update 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures". The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements, however we have expanded our Segment disclosure to include additional information that is significant to the chief operating decision maker, who is the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. For additional information on the required disclosures related to the impact of adopting this standard, see Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. All other standards adopted for the year ended December 31, 2024 did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Effective In December 2023, the FASB issued Update 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures". This Update applies to all entities that are subject to Topic 740. The amendments in this Update improve income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information as well as the effectiveness of certain other income tax disclosures. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The standard should be applied on a prospective basis, but retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this new standard. In November 2024, the FASB issued Update 2024-03, "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)". This update applies to all public business entities. The Board is issuing this Update to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) in commonly presented expense captions (such as cost of sales, SG&A, and research and development).

REVENUE RECOGNITION

REVENUE RECOGNITION	12 Months Ended

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
REVENUE RECOGNITION	REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue from Contracts with Customers In accordance with Topic 606, revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied; generally this occurs with the transfer of control of our products or services. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring products or providing services. Certain customers may receive cash and/or non-cash incentives, which are accounted for as variable consideration. To achieve the core principle, the Company applies the following five steps: 1. Identify the contract with a customer A contract with a customer exists when (i) the Company enters into an agreement with a customer that defines each party's rights regarding the products or services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these products or services, (ii) both parties to the contract are committed to perform their respective obligations, (iii) the contract has commercial substance, and (iv) the Company determines that collection of substantially all consideration for products or services that are transferred is probable based on the customer's intent and ability to pay the promised consideration. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer's ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors including the customer's payment history or, in the case of a new customer, published credit and financial information pertaining to the customer. 2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the products or services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the product or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the products or services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised products or services, the Company must apply judgment to determine whether promised products or services are capable of being distinct and distinct in the context of the contract. If these criteria are not met, the promised products or services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation. The Company has elected to account for shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment cost as permitted by the standard. 3. Determine the transaction price The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring products or services to the customer. To the extent the transaction price is variable, revenue is recognized at an amount equal to the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled. This estimate includes customer sales incentives which are accounted for as a reduction to revenue and estimated primarily using the expected value method. Determining the transaction price requires significant judgment, which is discussed by revenue category in further detail below. In practice, we do not offer extended payment terms beyond one year to customers. As such, we do not adjust our consideration for financing arrangements. 4. Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis unless a portion of the variable consideration related to the contract is allocated entirely to a performance obligation. The Company determines standalone selling price based on the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately. 5. Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation The Company generally satisfies performance obligations at a point in time. Revenue is recognized based on the transaction price at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring a promised product or service to a customer. The impact to revenue related to prior period performance obligations is less than 1% of global consolidated revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Disaggregation of Revenue The following table presents our disaggregated revenues by revenue source. We sell products within all major product categories in each operating segment. For additional information on the disaggregated revenues by operating segment, see Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Twelve months ended Millions of dollars 2024 2023 2022 Major product categories: Laundry $ 4,585 $ 5,333 $ 5,133 Refrigeration 5,097 5,794 6,248 Cooking 3,939 4,721 5,056 Dishwashing 1,276 1,729 1,822 Total major product category net sales $ 14,897 $ 17,577 $ 18,259 Spare parts and warranties 649 953 923 Other 1,062 925 542 Total net sales $ 16,607 $ 19,455 $ 19,724 Major Product Category Sales Whirlpool Corporation manufactures and markets a full line of home appliances and related products and services. Our major product categories include the following: refrigeration, laundry, cooking, and dishwashing. The refrigeration product category includes refrigerators, freezers, ice makers and refrigerator water filters. The laundry product category includes laundry appliances, commercial laundry products and related laundry accessories. The cooking category includes cooking appliances and other small domestic appliances. The dishwashing product category includes dishwasher appliances and related accessories. For product sales, we transfer control and recognize a sale when we ship the product from our manufacturing facility to our customer or when the customer receives the product based upon agreed shipping terms. Each unit sold is considered an independent, unbundled performance obligation. We do not have any additional performance obligations other than product sales that are material in the context of the contract. The amount of consideration we receive and revenue we recognize varies due to sales incentives and returns we offer to our customers. When we give our customers the right to return eligible products, we reduce revenue for our estimate of the expected returns which is primarily based on an analysis of historical experience. Spare Parts & Warranties Spare parts are primarily sold to parts distributors and retailers, with a small number of sales to end consumers. For spare part sales, we transfer control and recognize a sale when we ship the product to our customer or when the customer receives product based upon agreed shipping terms. Each unit sold is considered an independent, unbundled performance obligation. We do not have any additional performance obligations other than spare part sales that are material in the context of the contract. The amount of consideration we receive and revenue we recognize varies due to sales incentives and returns we offer to our customers. When we give our customers the right to return eligible products, we reduce revenue for our estimate of the expected returns which is primarily based on an analysis of historical experience. Warranties are classified as either assurance type or service type warranties. A warranty is considered an assurance type warranty if it provides the consumer with assurance that the product will function as intended. A warranty that goes above and beyond ensuring standard functionality is considered a service type warranty. The Company offers certain limited warranties that are assurance type warranties and extended service arrangements that are service type warranties. Assurance type warranties are not accounted for as separate performance obligations under the revenue model. If a service type warranty is sold with a product or separately, revenue is recognized over the life of the warranty. The Company evaluates warranty offerings in comparison to industry standards and market expectations to determine appropriate warranty classification. Industry standards and market expectations are determined by jurisdictional laws, competitor offerings and customer expectations. Market expectations and industry standards can vary based on product type and geography. The Company primarily offers assurance type warranties. Whirlpool sells certain extended service arrangements separately from the sale of products. Whirlpool acts as a sales agent under a majority of these arrangements whereby the Company receives a fee that is recognized as revenue upon the sale of the extended service arrangement. Other Revenue Other revenue sources include primarily the revenues from the InSinkErator business, acquired in the fourth quarter of 2022, subscription arrangements and licenses as described below. InSinkErator revenues consist primarily of food waste disposers and instant hot water dispensers. We transfer control and recognize a sale when we ship the product from our manufacturing facility to our customer or when the customer receives the product based upon agreed shipping terms, in a similar manner as our major product category sales. The Company previously had a water filtration subscription business, operating under our Brastemp brand, in our Latin America segment which provided water filtration systems for consumer and business locations. On January 16, 2024, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement with a third-party buyer to sell the Company's Brastemp water filtration subscription business in the Latin America region and the transaction closed on July 1, 2024. For additional information, see Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. We license our brands in arrangements that do not include other performance obligations. Whirlpool licensing provides a right of access to the Company's intellectual property throughout the license period. Whirlpool recognizes licensing revenue over the life of the license contract as the underlying sale or usage occurs. As a result, we recognize revenue for these contracts at the amount which directly corresponds to the value provided to the customer. Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Contract We do not capitalize costs to obtain a contract because a nominal number of contracts have terms that extend beyond one year. The Company does not have a significant amount of capitalized costs related to fulfillment. Sales Tax and Indirect Taxes The Company is subject to certain indirect taxes in certain jurisdictions including but not limited to sales tax, value added tax, excise tax and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities that are excluded from the transaction price, and therefore, excluded from revenue. Allowance for Expected Credit Losses and Bad Debt Expense We estimate our expected credit losses primarily by using an aging methodology and establish customer-specific reserves for higher risk trade customers. Our expected credit losses are evaluated and controlled within each geographic region considering the unique credit risk specific to the country, marketplace and economic environment. We take into account past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts in developing the reserve. The following table summarizes our allowance for doubtful accounts by operating segment for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024.

LEASES

LEASES	12 Months Ended

Leases [Abstract]
LEASES	LEASES Leases We lease certain manufacturing facilities, warehouses/distribution centers, office space, land, vehicles, and equipment. At lease inception, we determine the lease term by assuming the exercise of those renewal options that are reasonably assured. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company had operating lease costs of approximately $216 million, $235 million and $218 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, we have no material leases classified as financing leases. We have approximately $1,048 million of non-cancellable operating lease commitments, excluding variable consideration at December 31, 2024 and $929 million at December 31, 2023. The undiscounted annual future minimum lease payments are summarized by year in the table below. Maturity of Lease Liabilities Operating Leases 2025 $ 204 2026 185 2027 162 2028 134 2029 108 Thereafter 255 Total lease payments $ 1,048 Less: interest 175 Present value of lease liabilities $ 873 The long-term portion of the lease liabilities included in the amounts above is $711 million as of December 31, 2024. The remainder of our lease liabilities are included in other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the year ended December 31, 2024 the weighted average remaining lease term and weighted average discount rate for operating leases was 6 years and 6%. The weighted average remaining lease term and weighted average discount rate was 7 years and 5% for the year ended December 31, 2023. During the year ended December 31, 2024 the cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of the liabilities and the operating cash flows was $206 million. The right of use assets obtained in exchange for new liabilities was $268 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2023 the cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of the liabilities and the operating cash flows was $236 million. The right of use assets obtained in exchange for new liabilities was $157 million for the year ended December 3 1, 2023. As the Company's lease agreements normally do not provide an implicit interest rate, we apply the Company's incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future lease payments. Relevant information used in determining the Company's incremental borrowing rate includes the duration of the lease, location of the lease, and the Company's credit risk relative to risk-free market rates. Many of our leases include renewal options that can extend the lease term. The execution of those renewal options is at our sole discretion and reflected in the lease term when they are reasonably certain to be exercised. Certain leases also include options to purchase the underlying asset at fair market value. If leased assets have leasehold improvements, typically the depreciable life of those leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term. Additionally, certain lease agreements include lease payment adjustments for inflation. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants, except for synthetic leases (see Synthetic lease arrangements). We rent or sublease certain real estate to third parti es. Our sublease portfolio primarily consists of operating leases within our warehouses, resulting in a nominal amount of sublease income for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Sale-leaseback transactions There were no material sale-leaseback transactions in 2024 or 2023. In the first quarter of 2022, the Company sold and leased back a group of non-core properties for net proceeds of approximately $52 million. The initial total annual rent for the properties is approximately $2 million per year over an initial 15 year lease term and is subject to annual rent increases. Under the terms of the lease agreement, the Company is responsible for all taxes, insurance and utilities and is required to adequately maintain the properties for the lease term. The Company has two sequential 5-year renewal options. The transaction met the requirements for sale-leaseback accounting. Accordingly, the Company recorded the sale of the properties, which resulted in a gain of approximately $44 million ($36 million, net of tax) recorded in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. The related land and buildings were removed from property, plant and equipment, net and the appropriate right-of-use asset and lease liabilities of approximately $32 million were recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at the time of the transaction in the first quarter of 2022. Synthetic lease arrangements We have a number of synthetic lease arrangements with financial institutions for non-core properties. The leases contain provisions for options to purchase, extend the original term for additional periods or return the property. As of December 31, 2024, these arrangements include residual value guarantees of up to approximately $405 million that could potentially come due in future periods. We do not believe it is probable that any material amounts will be owed under these guarantees. Therefore, no material amounts related to the residual value guarantees are included in the lease payments used to measure the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The residual value guarantee amounted to $378 million as of December 31, 2023. The majority of these leases are classified as operating leases. We have assessed the reasonable certainty of these provisions to determine the appropriate lease term. The leases were measured using our incremental borrowing rate and are included in our right of use assets and lease liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Rental payments are calculated at the applicable reference rate plus a margin. The impact to the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) is nominal.

A nnual impairment assessment We completed our annual impairment assessment for goodwill as of October 1, 2024 The Company elected to bypass the qualitative assessment and perform a quantitative assessment to evaluate goodwill for all our reporting units. Based on the quantitative assessment we determined there was no impairment of goodwill. For additional information, see Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. We completed our annual impairment assessment for goodwill as of October 1, 2023. The Company performed a qualitative assessment for all our reporting units and determined no impairment was indicated. Interim Impairment assessment - 2022 Based on our interim quantitative impairment assessment as of June 30, 2022, the carrying value of the EMEA reporting unit exceeded its fair value and we recorded a goodwill impairment charge for the full amount of the goodwill's carrying value of $278 million during the second quarter of 2022.

A nnual impairment assessment We completed our annual impairment assessment for other intangible assets as of October 1, 2024. The Company elected to bypass the qualitative assessment and perform a quantitative assessment to evaluate certain indefinite-life intangible assets within our MDA North America operating segment. The results of the quantitative assessment determined that the carrying value of our Maytag trademark exceeded its fair value by $381 million. Accordingly, an impairment charge of $381 million was recorded during the fourth quarter of 2024 and was recorded within Impairment of Goodwill and Other Intangibles We completed our annual impairment assessment for other intangible assets as of October 1, 2023. The Company elected to bypass the qualitative assessment and perform a quantitative assessment to evaluate certain indefinite-lived intangible assets. Based on the results of the quantitative assessment, we determined there was no impairment of intangible assets in 2023. Interim Impairment assessment - 2022 In the second quarter of 2022, we identified indicators of impairment associated with other intangible assets in our EMEA reporting unit, which required us to complete an interim impairment assessment. Based on that assessment, we determined that the carrying value of certain other intangible assets, including the Indesit and Hotpoint * tradenames, exceeded their fair value, and we recorded an impairment charge of $106 million during the second quarter of 2022.

On February 27, 2024, the Company closed its offering of the Notes. The Notes contain covenants that limit the Company's ability to incur certain liens or enter into certain sale and lease-back transactions. In addition, if we experience a specific kind of change of control, we are required to make an offer to purchase all of the notes at a purchase price of 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Company used the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes, together with cash on hand, to repay, at maturity, all $300 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's 4.000% Notes due March 1, 2024. On February 22, 2023, the Company completed its offering of $300 million aggregate principal amount of 5.5% Senior Notes due 2033 (the “2033 Notes”), in a public offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-255372). The 2033 Notes were issued under an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated March 20, 2000, between the Company, as issuer, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (as successor to U.S. Bank, National Association and Citibank, N.A.), as trustee. The sale of the 2033 Notes was made pursuant to the terms of an Underwriting Agreement, dated February 14, 2023, with BNP Paribas Securities Corp., ING Financial Markets LLC, Mizuho Securities USA LLC, SMBC Nikko Securities America, Inc. and SG Americas Securities, LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters in connection with the offering and sales of the 2033 Notes. The 2033 Notes contain covenants that limit the Company's ability to incur certain liens or enter into certain sale and lease-back transactions. In addition, if we experience a specific kind of change of control, we are required to make an offer to purchase all of the notes at a purchase price of 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Company used the net proceeds from the sale of the 2033 Notes to repay $250 million aggregate principal amount of 3.7% Notes which were paid on March 1, 2023, and for general corporate purposes. Term Loan Agreement On September 23, 2022, the Company entered into a Term Loan Agreement by and among the Company, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (“SMBC”), as Administrative Agent and Syndication Agent and as lender, and certain other financial institutions as lenders. SMBC, BNP Paribas, ING Bank N.V., Dublin Branch, Mizuho Bank, Ltd., and Societe Generale acted as Joint Lead Arrangers and Syndication Agents; The Bank of Nova Scotia and Bank of China, Chicago Branch acted as Documentation Agents; and SMBC acted as Sole Bookrunner for the Term Loan Agreement. The Term Loan Agreement provides for an aggregate lender commitment of $2.5 billion. The Company utilized proceeds from the term loan facility on a delayed draw basis to fund a majority of the $3.0 billion purchase price consideration for the Company’s acquisition from Emerson Electric Co. (“Emerson”) of Emerson’s InSinkErator business, as set forth in the Asset and Stock Purchase Agreement between Whirlpool and Emerson dated as of August 7, 2022 (the “Acquisition Agreement”). The outstanding amount for this term loan at December 31, 2024 is $1.5 billion, which is classified in noncurrent liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The term loan facility is divided into two tranches: a $1 billion tranche with a maturity date of April 30, 2024, of which $500 million was repaid in December 2023 and the remaining $500 million was repaid in April 2024; and a $1.5 billion tranche with a maturity date of October 31, 2025. The interest and fee rates payable with respect to the term loan facility based on the Company's current debt rating are as follows: (1) the spread over SOFR for the 3-year tranche is 1.25% (with a 0.10% SOFR spread adjustment); and (2) the spread over prime for the 3-year tranche is zero, as the date hereof. The Term Loan Agreement contains customary covenants and warranties including, among other things, a rolling twelve month interest coverage ratio required to be greater than or equal to 3.0 for each fiscal quarter. In addition, the covenants limit the Company's ability to (or to permit any subsidiaries to), subject to various exceptions and limitations: (i) merge with other companies; (ii) create liens on its property; and (iii) incur debt at the subsidiary level. We were in compliance with our interest coverage ratio under the term loan agreement as of December 31, 2024. Credit Facilities On May 3, 2022, the Company entered into a Fifth Amended and Restated Long-Term Credit Agreement (the “Amended Long-Term Facility”) by and among the Company, certain other borrowers, the lenders referred to therein, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Administrative Agent, and Citibank, N.A., as Syndication Agent. BNP Paribas, Mizuho Bank, Ltd. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association acted as Documentation Agents. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., BNP Paribas Securities Corp., Citibank, N.A., Mizuho Bank, Ltd. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC acted as Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners for the Amended Long-Term Facility. Consistent with the Company’s prior credit agreement, the Amended Long-Term Facility provides an aggregate borrowing capacity of $3.5 billion. The facility has a maturity date of May 3, 2027, unless earlier terminated. The interest rate payable with respect to the Amended Long-Term Facility is based on the Company’s current debt rating, Term SOFR (Secured Overnight Financing Rate) + 1.25% interest rate margin per annum (with a 0.10% SOFR spread adjustment) or the Alternate Base Rate + 0.25% per annum, at the Company’s election. The Amended Long-Term Facility contains customary covenants and warranties, such as, among other things, a rolling four quarter interest coverage ratio required to be greater than or equal to 3.0 as of the end of each fiscal quarter. The Amended Long-Term Facility also includes limitations on the Company’s ability to (or to permit any subsidiaries to), subject to various exceptions and limitations: (i) merge with other companies; (ii) create liens on its property; and (iii) incur debt at the subsidiary level. We were in compliance with our interest coverage ratio under the Amended Long-Term Facility as of December 31, 2024. In addition to the committed $3.5 billion Amended Long-Term Facility and the committed $1.5 billion term loan, we have committed credit facilities in Brazil and India. These committed credit facilities provide borrowings up to approximately $173 million a t December 31, 2024 and $218 million at December 31, 2023, based on exchange rates then in effect, respectively. These committed credit facilities have maturities that run through 2025. We had $1.5 billion and $2.0 billion drawn on the committed credit facilities (representing amounts outstanding on the term loan facility) at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Notes Payable Notes payable, which consist of short-term borrowings payable to banks or commercial paper, are generally used to fund working capital requirements. The fair value of our notes payable approximates the carrying amount due to the short maturity of these obligations. The following table summarizes the carrying value of notes payable at December 31, 2024 and 2023: Millions of dollars 2024 2023 Short-term borrowings due to banks $ 18 $ 17 Total notes payable $ 18 $ 17

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES OTHER MATTERS BEFIEX Credits and Other Brazil Tax Matters In previous years, our Brazilian operations earned tax credits under the Brazilian government's export incentive program (BEFIEX). These credits reduced Brazilian federal excise taxes on domestic sales. Our Brazilian operations have received tax assessments for income and social contribution taxes associated with certain monetized BEFIEX credits. We do not believe BEFIEX credits are subject to income or social contribution taxes. We have not provided for income or social contribution taxes on these BEFIEX credits, and based on the opinions of tax and legal advisors, we have not accrued any amount related to these assessments at December 31, 2024. The total amount of outstanding tax assessments received for income and social contribution taxes relating to the BEFIEX credits, including interest and penalties, is approximately 2.4 billion Brazilian reais (approximately $385 million at December 31, 2024). Relying on existing Brazilian legal precedent, in 2003 and 2004, we recognized tax credits in an aggregate amount of $26 million, adjusted for currency, on the purchase of raw materials used in production ("IPI tax credits"). The Brazilian tax authority subsequently challenged the recording of IPI tax credits. No such credits have been recognized since 2004. In 2009, we entered into a Brazilian government program ("IPI Amnesty") which provided extended payment terms and reduced penalties and interest to encourage taxpayers to resolve this and certain other disputed tax credit amounts. As permitted by the program, we elected to settle certain debts through the use of other existing tax credits and recorded charges of approximately $34 million in 2009 associated with these matters. In July 2012, the Brazilian revenue authority notified us that a portion of our proposed settlement was rejected and we received tax assessments of 295 million Brazilian reais (approximately $48 million at December 31, 2024), reflecting interest and penalties to date. The government's assessment in this case relies heavily on its arguments regarding taxability of BEFIEX credits for certain years, which we are disputing in one of the BEFIEX government assessment cases cited in the prior paragraph. Because the IPI Amnesty case (which has concluded at all judicial levels except the Brazil Supreme Court) is moving faster than the BEFIEX taxability case, we could be required to pay the IPI Amnesty assessment before obtaining a final decision in the BEFIEX taxability case. We have received tax assessments from the Brazilian federal tax authorities relating to amounts allegedly due regarding insurance taxes (PIS/COFINS) for tax credits recognized since 2007. These credits were recognized for inputs to certain manufacturing and other business processes. These assessments are being challenged at the administrative and judicial levels in Brazil. The total amount of outstanding tax assessments received for credits recognized for PIS/COFINS inputs is approximately 397 million Brazilian reais (approximately $64 million at December 31, 2024). Based on the opinion of our tax and legal advisors, we have not accrued any amount related to these assessments. We and other Brazil taxpayers have filed lawsuits in Brazil challenging DIFAL, an interstate tax equalization regime. In November 2023, in a leading (non-Whirlpool) case, the Brazil Supreme Court issued a decision upholding the constitutionality of DIFAL levied for the majority of 2022, but has not yet ruled on the taxpayer's appeal motion. Certain other DIFAL litigation remains pending at various levels of judicial review. We have accrued amounts related to DIFAL levied in certain states in Brazil, but have not accrued amounts in certain others based on the opinion of our tax and legal advisors. Our total unreserved amounts related to DIFAL-related contingency is approximately 315 million Brazilian reais (approximately $52 million at December 31, 2024). In addition to the BEFIEX, IPI tax credit, PIS/COFINS inputs and DIFAL matters noted above, other assessments issued by the Brazilian tax authorities related to indirect and income tax matters, and other matters, are at various stages of review in numerous administrative and judicial proceedings. We are vigorously defending our positions related to BEFIEX credits and other Brazil Tax Matters. The amounts related to these assessments will continue to be increased by monetary adjustments at the Selic rate, which is the benchmark rate set by the Brazilian Central Bank. In accordance with our accounting policies, we routinely assess these matters and, when necessary, record our best estimate of a loss. Litigation is inherently unpredictable and the conclusion of these matters may take many years to ultimately resolve. Amounts at issue in potential future litigation could increase as a result of interest and penalties in future periods. Accordingly, it is possible that an unfavorable outcome in these proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements in any particular reporting period. Legacy EMEA Legal Matters Competition Investigation In 2013, the French Competition Authority ("FCA") commenced an investigation of appliance manufacturers and retailers in France, including Whirlpool and Indesit. The FCA investigation was split into two parts, and in December 2018, we finalized a settlement with the FCA on the first part of the investigation. The second part of the FCA investigation, focused primarily on manufacturer interactions with retailers, has concluded. The Company agreed to a preliminary settlement range with the FCA and recorded a charge of approximately $69 million in the first half of 2023. On December 19, 2024, the FCA's college issued its final decision, setting the final fine amount at $75 million (based on exchange rates at December 31, 2024), with $46 million attributable to Whirlpool's France business and $29 million attributable to Indesit's France business. The Company expects to pay Beko Europe approximately $52 million in the first half of 2025 to satisfy indemnification obligations related to this fine, with the remainder satisfied by cash provided in connection with transaction closing. Under the terms of a settlement with Indesit's former owners, the Company expects to receive approximately $9 million out of escrow from the former owners in the first half of 2025. The Company recorded a nominal amount in the fourth quarter of 2024 related to the decision, representing final fine amounts above the 2023 reserve offset by the escrow amounts from Indesit's former owners. Grenfell Tower On June 23, 2017, London's Metropolitan Police Service released a statement that it had identified a Hotpoint–branded refrigerator as the initial source of the Grenfell Tower fire in West London. U.K. authorities are conducting investigations, including regarding the cause and spread of the fire. The model in question was manufactured by Indesit Company between 2006 and 2009, prior to Whirlpool's acquisition of Indesit in 2014. We are fully cooperating with the investigating authorities. Whirlpool was named as a defendant in a product liability suit in Pennsylvania federal court related to this matter. The federal court dismissed the case with prejudice in September 2020 and the dismissal was affirmed on appeal in July 2022. Plaintiffs filed a petition with the U.S. Supreme Court in January 2023, which was subsequently denied. In December 2020, lawsuits related to Grenfell Tower were filed in the U.K. against approximately 20 defendants, including Whirlpool Corporation and certain Whirlpool subsidiaries. In the fourth quarter of 2022, we accrued an immaterial amount related to these claims in our financial statements, and in 2024 we reached agreement with our insurers regarding coverage for all likely future financial obligations arising out of this incident. Latin America Tax Review In the first quarter of 2023, we accrued an immaterial amount in our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements related to prior-period Value Added Tax (VAT) remittances in our Latin America region. We resolved certain aspects of this matter in the second quarter of 2023 and the overall financial statement impact of such resolution was immaterial. We continue to review tax matters within the region for any potential additional impacts, if any; certain matters could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements in any particular reporting period. Other Litigation We are currently vigorously defending a number of other lawsuits related to the manufacture and sale of our products which include class action allegations, and may become involved in similar actions. These lawsuits allege claims which include negligence, breach of contract, breach of warranty, product liability and safety claims, false advertising, fraud, and violation of federal and state regulations, including consumer protection laws. In general, we do not have insurance coverage for class action lawsuits. We are also involved in various other legal actions arising in the normal course of business, for which insurance coverage may or may not be available depending on the nature of the action. We dispute the merits of these suits and actions, and intend to vigorously defend them. Management believes, based upon its current knowledge, after taking into consideration legal counsel's evaluation of such suits and actions, and after taking into account current litigation accruals, that the outcome of these matters currently pending against Whirlpool should not have a material adverse effect, if any, on our financial statements. Product Warranty Reserves Product warranty reserves are included in other current and other noncurrent liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table summarizes the changes in total product warranty reserves for the periods presented: Product Warranty Millions of dollars 2024 2023 Balance at January (1) $ 206 $ 190 Issuances/accruals during the period 235 311 Settlements made during the period/other (245) (303) Liabilities classified to held for sale (1) — 8 Balance at December 31 $ 196 $ 206 Current portion $ 136 $ 136 Non-current portion 60 70 Total $ 196 $ 206 (1) Liabilities of our European major domestic appliance business were classified as held for sale through closing of the European major domestic appliance transaction on April 1, 2024. In the normal course of business, we engage in investigations of potential quality and safety issues. As part of our ongoing effort to deliver quality products to consumers, we are currently investigating certain potential quality and safety issues globally. As necessary, we undertake to effect repair or replacement of appliances in the event that an investigation leads to the conclusion that such action is warranted. Guarantees We have guarantee arrangements in a Brazilian subsidiary. For certain creditworthy customers, the subsidiary guarantees customer lines of credit at commercial banks to support purchases following its normal credit policies. If a customer were to default on its line of credit with the bank, our subsidiary would be required to assume the line of credit and satisfy the obligation with the bank. At December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the guaranteed amounts totaled 981 million Brazilian reais (approximately $159 million at December 31, 2024) and 1,321 million Brazilian reais (approximately $273 million at December 31, 2023), respectively. The fair value of these guarantees were nominal at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Our subsidiary insures against a significant portion of this credit risk for these guarantees, under normal operating conditions, through policies purchased from high-quality underwriters. We provide guarantees of indebtedness and lines of credit for various consolidated subsidiaries. The maximum contractual amount of indebtedness and lines of credit available under these lines for consolidated subsidiaries totaled approximately $1.9 billion at December 31, 2024 and $3.0 billion at December 31, 2023. Our total short-term outstanding bank indebtedness under guarantees (excluding those related to the European major domestic appliance business) was $12 million at December 31, 2024, and was $17 million at December 31, 2023.

Defined Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans Disclosures [Abstract]
PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS	PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS We have funded and unfunded defined benefit pension plans that cover certain employees in North America, Europe, Asia and Brazil. The United States plans comprise the majority of our obligation. All of the United States plans are frozen for all participants, except for the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan discussed below. The primary formula for United States salaried employees covered under the qualified defined benefit plan and the unfunded, nonqualified Retirement Benefits Restoration Plan was based on years of service and final average salary, while the primary formula for United States hourly employees covered under the defined benefit plans was based on specific dollar amounts for each year of service. There were multiple formulas for employees covered under the qualified and nonqualified defined benefit plans that were sponsored by Maytag, including a cash balance formula. We have foreign pension plans that accrue benefits. The plans generally provide benefit payments using a formula that is based upon employee compensation and length of service. We sponsor an unfunded Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan in the United States that remains open to new participants and additional benefit accruals. This plan is nonqualified and provides certain key employees additional defined pension benefits that supplement those provided by the Company's other retirement plans. A defined contribution plan is provided to all United States employees and is not classified within the net periodic benefit cost. The Company provides annual match and automatic company contributions, in cash or Company stock, of up to 7% of employees' eligible pay. Our contributions during 2024, 2023 and 2022 were $80 million (the majority funded with Company stock), $87 million and $90 million, respectively. We provide postretirement health care benefits for eligible retired employees in the United States, Canada and Brazil. For our United States plan, which comprises the majority of our obligation, eligible retirees include those who were full-time employees with 10 years of service who attained age 55 while in service with us and those union retirees who met the eligibility requirements of their collective bargaining agreements. In general, the postretirement health and welfare benefit plans include cost-sharing provisions that limit our exposure for recent and future retirees and are contributory, with participants' contributions adjusted annually. In the United States, benefits for certain retiree populations follow a defined contribution model that allocates certain monthly or annual amounts to a retiree's account under the plan. As of December 31, 2023, pension assets and liabilities related to the European major domestic appliance business have been classified as held for sale. The postretirement medical benefit programs are unfunded. We reserve the right to modify these benefits in the future.

Discount Rate For our United States pension and postretirement benefit plans, the discount rate was selected using a hypothetical portfolio of high quality bonds outstanding at December 31 that would provide the necessary cash flows to match our projected benefit payments. For our foreign pension and postretirement benefit plans, the discount rate was primarily selected using high quality bond yields for the respective country or region covered by the plan. Expected Return on Plan Assets In the United States, the expected return on plan assets is developed considering asset mix, historical asset class data and long-term expectations. The resulting weighted-average return was rounded to the nearest quarter of one percent and applied to the fair value of plan assets at December 31, 2024. For foreign pension plans, the expected rate of return on plan assets was primarily determined by observing historical returns in the local fixed income and equity markets and computing the weighted average returns with the weights being the asset allocation of each plan. Cash Flows Funding Policy Our funding policy is to contribute to our qualified United States pension plans amounts sufficient to meet the minimum funding requirement as defined by employee benefit and tax laws, plus additional amounts which we may determine to be appropriate. In certain countries other than the United States, the funding of pension plans is not common practice. Contributions to our United States pension plans may be made in the form of cash or, in the case of our defined contribution plan in our discretion, company stock. We pay for retiree medical benefits as they are incurred. There have bee n no cont ributions to the pension trust for our U.S. defined benefit plans during the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

The target allocation for our plans is approximately 25% in growth assets and 75% in immunizing fixed income securities, with exceptions for foreign pension plans. The fixed income securities duration is intended to match that of our United States pension liabilities. Plan assets are reported at fair value based on an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset. As a basis for considering such assumptions, a three-tiered fair value hierarchy is established, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: (Level 1) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; (Level 2) inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable, either directly or indirectly; and (Level 3) unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Certain investments are valued based on net asset value (NAV), which approximates fair value. Such basis is determined by referencing the respective fund's underlying assets. There are no unfunded commitments or other restrictions associated with these investments. We manage the process and approve the results of a third-party pricing service to value the majority of our securities and to determine the appropriate level in the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of our pension plan assets at December 31, 2024 and 2023, by asset category were as follows: December 31, Quoted prices Other significant Significant Net Asset Value Total Millions of dollars 2024 2023 2024 2023 2024 2023 2024 2023 2024 2023 Cash and cash equivalents $ — $ — $ 146 $ 178 $ — $ — $ — $ — $ 146 $ 178 Government and government agency securities (1) U.S. securities — — 57 75 — — — — 57 75 International securities — — 43 39 — — — — 43 39 Corporate bonds and notes (1) U.S. companies — — 909 1,094 — — — — 909 1,094 International companies — — 105 154 — — — — 105 154 Equity securities (2) International companies 4 8 — — — — — — 4 8 Mutual funds (3) — — 100 71 — — — — 100 71 Investments at net asset value U.S. equity securities (4) — — — — — — 234 227 234 227 International equity securities (4) — — — — — — 128 119 128 119 U.S. private equity investments — — — — 6 15 — — 6 15 Emerging growth — — — — — 2 — — — 2 All other investments — — 41 27 — — — — 41 27 $ 4 $ 8 $ 1,401 $ 1,638 $ 6 $ 17 $ 362 $ 346 $ 1,773 $ 2,009 (1) Valued using pricing vendors who use proprietary models to estimate the price a dealer would pay to buy a security using significant observable inputs, such as interest rates, yield curves, and credit risk.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
HEDGES AND DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS	HEDGES AND DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Derivative instruments are accounted for at fair value based on market rates. Derivatives where we elect hedge accounting are designated as either cash flow, fair value or net investment hedges. Derivatives that are not accounted for based on hedge accounting are marked to market through earnings. If the designated cash flow hedges are highly effective, the gains and losses are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified to earnings to offset the impact of the hedged items when they occur. In the event it becomes probable the forecasted transaction to which a cash flow hedge relates will not occur, the derivative would be terminated and the amount in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) would be recognized in earnings. The fair value of the hedge asset or liability is present in either other current assets/liabilities or other noncurrent assets/liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and in other within cash provided by (used in) operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Using derivative instruments means assuming counterparty credit risk. Counterparty credit risk relates to the loss we could incur if a counterparty were to default on a derivative contract. We generally deal with investment grade counterparties and monitor the overall credit risk and exposure to individual counterparties. We do not anticipate nonperformance by any counterparties. The amount of counterparty credit exposure is limited to the unrealized gains, if any, on such derivative contracts. We do not require nor do we post collateral on such contracts. Hedging Strategy In the normal course of business, we manage risks relating to our ongoing business operations including those arising from changes in commodity prices, foreign exchange rates and interest rates. Fluctuations in these rates and prices can affect our operating results and financial condition. We use a variety of strategies, including the use of derivative instruments, to manage these risks. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Commodity Price Risk We enter into commodity derivative contracts on various commodities to manage the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of materials used in our manufacturing process. The objective of these hedges is to reduce the variability of cash flows associated with the forecasted purchase of commodities. Foreign Currency and Interest Rate Risk We incur expenses associated with the procurement and production of products in a limited number of countries, while we sell in the local currencies of a large number of countries. Our primary foreign currency exchange exposures result from cross-currency sales of products. As a result, we enter into foreign exchange contracts to hedge certain firm commitments and forecasted transactions to acquire products and services that are denominated in foreign currencies. We enter into certain undesignated non-functional currency asset and liability hedges that relate primarily to short-term payables, receivables, intercompany loans and dividends. When we hedge a foreign currency denominated payable or receivable with a derivative, the effect of changes in the foreign exchange rates are reflected currently in interest and sundry (income) expense for both the payable/receivable and the derivative. Therefore, as a result of the economic hedge, we do not elect hedge accounting. We also enter into hedges to mitigate currency risk primarily related to forecasted foreign currency denominated expenditures, intercompany financing agreements and royalty agreements and designate them as cash flow hedges. Gains and losses on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, to the extent they are included in the assessment of effectiveness, are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified to earnings to offset the impact of the hedged items when they occur. We may enter into cross-currency interest rate swaps to manage our exposure relating to cross-currency debt. Outstanding notional amounts of cross-currency interest rate swap agreements were $618 million at December 31, 2024, December 31 ,2023, and December 31, 2022. We may enter into interest rate swap agreements to manage interest rate risk exposure. Our interest rate swap agreements, if any, effectively modify our exposure to interest rate risk, primarily through converting certain floating rate debt to a fixed rate basis, and certain fixed rate debt to a floating rate basis. These agreements involve either the receipt or payment of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments or receipts, respectively, over the life of the agreements without an exchange of the underlying principal amounts. We may enter into swap rate lock agreements to effectively reduce our exposure to interest rate risk by locking in interest rates on probable long-term debt issuances. There were no outstanding notional amounts of interest rate swap agreements at December 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Net Investment Hedging For instruments that are designated and qualify as a net investment hedge, the effective portion of the instruments' gain or loss is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The gain or loss will be subsequently reclassified into net earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated. The remaining change in fair value of the hedge instruments represents the ineffective portion, which is immediately recognized in interest and sundry (income) expense on our Consolidated Statements of Income. There were no outstanding hedges designated as net investment hedges at December 31, 2024, December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Net Investment Hedging The following table summarizes our outstanding derivative contracts and their effects on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2024 and 2023.

(4) Change in gain (loss) reclassified from OCI into earnings (effective portion) was primarily driven by fluctuations in currency and commodity prices and interest rates compared to prior year. (5) Change in cross-currency swaps is primarily driven by the currency change in the Euro year-over-year. For cash flow hedges, the amount of ineffectiveness recognized in interest and sundry (income) expense was nominal during 2024 and 2023. There were no hedges designated as fair value in 2024 and 2023. The net amount of unrealized gain or loss on derivative instruments included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to contracts maturing and expected to be realized during the next twelve months is a gain of approximately $46 million at December 31, 2024.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair value is measured based on an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on a market valuation approach using prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. As a basis for considering such assumptions, a three-tiered fair value hierarchy is established, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: (Level 1) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; (Level 2) inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable, either directly or indirectly; and (Level 3) unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2024 and 2023 are as follows: Total Cost Basis Quoted Prices In Significant Other Total Fair Value Millions of dollars 2024 2023 2024 2023 2024 2023 2024 2023 Short-term investments (1) $ 1,000 $ 1,126 $ 705 $ 867 $ 295 $ 259 $ 1,000 $ 1,126 Net derivative contracts — — — — 8 (105) 8 (105) (1) Short-term investments are primarily comprised of money market funds and highly liquid, low risk investments with initial maturities less than 90 days. The non-recurring fair values represent only those assets whose carrying values were adjusted to fair value during the reporting period. Goodwill We have four reporting units for which we assess for impairment. We used a discounted cash flow analysis to determine fair value (Level 3 input) of our goodwill. In performing our quantitative assessment of goodwill, we estimated each reporting unit's fair value using a blend of the income and market approaches. The income approach uses the reporting unit's projections of estimated operating results and cash flows that are discounted using a market participant discount rate based on the weighted-average cost of capital. The main assumptions supporting the cash flow projections include revenue growth, EBIT margins and discount rate. The financial projections reflect management's best estimate of economic and market conditions over the projected period including forecasted revenue growth, EBIT margins, tax rate, capital expenditures, depreciation and amortization, changes in working capital requirements and the terminal growth rate. The market approach used market multiples derived from a set of comparable companies. During the second quarter of 2022, the discounted cash flow analysis for the quantitative impairment assessment for the EMEA reporting unit utilized a discount rate of 15%. Based on that assessment, the carrying value of the EMEA reporting unit exceeded its fair value resulting in a goodwill impairment loss for the full carrying amount of $278 million during the second quarter of 2022 and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. There were no goodwill impairment charges recorded in 2024 or 2023. Other Intangible Assets In performing a quantitative assessment of indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill, primarily trademarks, we estimate the fair value of these intangible assets using the relief-from-royalty method which requires assumptions related to projected revenues from our annual long-range plan; assumed royalty rates that could be payable if we did not own the trademark; and a market participant discount rate based on a weighted-average cost of capital. The results of the annual assessment performed as of October 1, 2024 determined that the carrying value of our Maytag trademark exceeded its fair value (Level 3 input) by $381 million. A discount rate of 12.5% and a royalty rate of 4.0% were utilized in that assessment. The brand has been unfavorably impacted as Whirlpool has refocused its brand strategy to the laundry category. The relief-from-royalty method for the quantitative impairment assessment for other intangible assets in the EMEA reporting unit during the second quarter of 2022 utilized discount rates of 19% and royalty rates ranging from 1.5% - 3.5%. Based on the quantitative assessment performed as of May 31, 2022, the carrying value of the Indesit and Hotpoint * trademarks exceeded their fair value (Level 3 input), resulting in an impairment charge of $106 million during the second quarter of 2022. Indefinite-lived intangible assets of Indesit and Hotpoint* with carrying amounts of approximately $201 million and $137 million were written down to fair values (Level 3 input) of $131 million and $101 million, resulting in impairment charges of $70 million and $36 million, respectively. During the fourth quarter of 2022, the remaining carrying amounts of Indesit and Hotpoint* trademarks were included in the net assets of the European major domestic appliance disposal group which was classified as held for sale. European Major Domestic Appliance Business Held for Sale On January 16, 2023, the Company entered into a contribution agreement with Arçelik A.Ş (“Arcelik”). Under the terms of the agreement, Whirlpool agreed to contribute its European major domestic appliance business, and Arcelik agreed to contribute its European major domestic appliance, consumer electronics, air conditioning, and small domestic appliance businesses into the newly formed entity of which Whirlpool owns 25% and Arcelik 75%. On December 20, 2022, the Company's board authorized the transaction with Arcelik and the European major domestic appliance business was classified as held for sale during the fourth quarter of 2022. The disposal group was measured at fair value less cost to sell. We used a discounted cash flow analysis and multiple market data points in our analysis to determine fair value (Level 3 input) of the 25% interest retained, resulting in an estimated fair value of $139 million. The discounted cash flow analysis utilized a discount rate of 16.5% at December 31, 2022. During the first quarter of 2024, the fair value of the disposal group was updated based on working capital adjustments, cash flow assumptions, and changes in discount rates. This updated assessment resulted in an estimated fair value of $227 million as of March 31, 2024, which consists of $186 million related to fair value of retained interest in Beko Europe B.V. ("Beko") and $41 million of proceeds from the sale of our Middle East and North Africa ("MENA") business. Subsequent to closing of the transaction, the Company holds an equity interest of 25% in Beko. The fair value of the investment in Beko at the date of deconsolidation was calculated based on a discounted cash flow analysis and multiple market data points (Level 3 input), resulting in a fair value of $186 million. The discounted cash flow analysis utilized a discount rate of 15.5%. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, we recorded a loss of $298 million to the loss on sale and disposal of businesses. The transaction closed on April 1, 2024 and no material fair value adjustments were recorded during the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 related to the contribution of our Europe major domestic appliance business. The loss of $298 million recorded during the twelve months December 31, 2024 reflects reassessment of the fair value less costs to sell of the disposal group, provisions for tax related indemnities and transaction costs. See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. *Whirlpool prior ownership of the Hotpoint brand in the EMEA and Asia Pacific regions was not affiliated with the Hotpoint brand sold in the Americas. InSinkErator Acquisition On October 31, 2022, we completed the acquisition of the InSinkErator business pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement with Emerson Electric Co. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting. This requires allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including goodwill and other intangible assets. The Company finalized third-party valuations for the purchase price allocation and the measurement period for any further purchase accounting adjustment has elapsed. See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Russia Sale Transaction During the second quarter of 2022, we entered into an agreement to sell our Russia business. We classified this disposal group as held for sale with a fair value of zero. Fair value, which is less than the carrying amount of the Russia business, was estimated based on purchase price which includes contingent consideration based on future business and other conditions (Level 2 input). We recorded an impairment charge of $333 million for the write-down of the net assets to their fair value. See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Other Fair Value Measurements The fair value of long-term debt (including current maturities) was $6.2 billion and $6.9 billion at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements (Level 2 input).

The following table shows the components of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) available to Whirlpool at December 31, 2022, 2023, and 2024, and the activity for the years then ended: Millions of dollars Foreign Derivative Pension and Total December 31, 2021 $ (1,555) $ 34 $ (836) (2,357) Unrealized gain (loss) 280 26 — 306 Unrealized actuarial gain(loss) and prior service credit (cost) — — (27) (27) Tax effect — (2) (10) (12) Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax 280 24 (37) 267 Less: Other comprehensive loss available to noncontrolling interests — — — — Other comprehensive income (loss) available to Whirlpool 280 24 (37) 267 December 31, 2022 $ (1,275) $ 58 $ (873) $ (2,090) Unrealized gain (loss) 22 (64) — (42) Unrealized actuarial gain (loss) and prior service credit (cost) — — (99) (99) Tax effect — 17 36 53 Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax 22 (47) (63) (88) Less: Other comprehensive loss available to noncontrolling interests — — — — Other comprehensive income (loss) available to Whirlpool 22 (47) (63) (88) December 31, 2023 $ (1,253) $ 11 $ (936) $ (2,178) Unrealized gain (loss) (30) 83 (9) 44 Unrealized actuarial gain (loss) and prior service credit (cost) — — 39 39 Tax effect — (25) (20) (45) Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax (30) 57 10 37 Less: Other comprehensive loss available to noncontrolling interests (1) — — (1) Other comprehensive income (loss) available to Whirlpool (29) 57 10 38 Sale of minority interest in subsidiary 18 — — 18 MDA Europe deconsolidation 442 — 135 577 December 31, 2024 $ (822) $ 68 $ (791) $ (1,545) Net Earnings per Share Diluted net earnings per share of common stock include the dilutive effect of stock options and other share-based compensation plans. Basic and diluted net earnings per share of common stock were calculated as follows: Millions of dollars and shares 2024 2023 2022 Numerator for basic and diluted earnings per share – net earnings (loss) available to Whirlpool $ (323) $ 481 $ (1,519) Denominator for basic earnings per share – weighted-average shares 55.1 55.0 55.9 Effect of dilutive securities – stock-based compensation — 0.2 — Denominator for diluted earnings per share – adjusted weighted-average shares 55.1 55.2 55.9 Anti-dilutive stock options/awards excluded from earnings per share 1.2 1.2 0.6 Dividends Dividends per share paid to shareholders were $7.00, $7.00 and $7.00 during 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Share Repurchase Program On April 19, 2021, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $2 billion, which has no expiration date. On February 14, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized an additional $2 billion in share repurchases under the Company's ongoing share repurchase program. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, we repurchased 456,000 shares under the share repurchase program at an aggregate price of approximately $50 million. At December 31, 2024, there were approximately $2.5 billion in remaining funds authorized under these programs. Share repurchases are made from time to time on the open market as conditions warrant. The program does not obligate us to repurchase any of our shares and it has no expiration date.

SHARE-BASED INCENTIVE PLANS

SHARE-BASED INCENTIVE PLANS	12 Months Ended

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
SHARE-BASED INCENTIVE PLANS	SHARE-BASED INCENTIVE PLANS We sponsor several share-based employee incentive plans. Share-based compensation expense for grants awarded under these plans was $28 million , $33 million and $58 million in 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. Related income tax benefits recognized in earnings were $4 million, $7 million and $10 million in 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. At December 31, 2024, unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock option and stock unit awards totaled $62 million. The cost of these non-vested awards is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remaining vesting period of 26 months. Share-Based Employee Incentive Plans On April 18, 2023, our stockholders approved the 2023 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan ("2023 OSIP"). This plan was adopted by our Board of Directors on February 20, 2023 and provides for the issuance of stock options, performance stock units, and restricted stock units, among other award types. No new awards may be granted under the 2023 OSIP after the tenth anniversary of the date that the stockholders approved the plan. However, the term and exercise of awards granted before then may extend beyond that date. At December 31, 2024, approximately 2.9 million shares remain available for issuance under the 2018 and 2023 OSIP. On April 17, 2018, our stockholders approved the 2018 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan ("2018 OSIP"). This plan was adopted by our Board of Directors on February 20, 2018 and provided for the issuance of stock options, performance stock units, and restricted stock units, among other award types. No new awards may be granted under the 2018 OSIP following the approval of the 2023 OSIP by our stockholders, but the 2018 OSIP will continue to govern awards granted under the 2018 OSIP prior to the effectiveness of the 2023 OSIP. Stock Options Eligible employees may receive stock options as a portion of their total compensation. Such options generally become exercisable over a 3-year period in substantially equal increments, expire 10 years from the date of grant and are subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment, other than by death, disability, retirement, or with the consent of the Committee (as defined in the award agreement). We use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to measure the fair value of stock options granted to employees. Granted options have exercise prices equal to the market price of Whirlpool common stock on the grant date. The principal assumptions used in valuing options include: (1) risk-free interest rate - an estimate based on the yield of United States zero coupon securities with a maturity equal to the expected life of the option; (2) expected volatility - an estimate based on the historical volatility of Whirlpool common stock for a period equal to the expected life of the option; and (3) expected option life - an estimate based on historical experience. Stock options are expensed on a straight-line basis, net of estimated forfeitures. Based on the results of the model, the weighted-average grant date fair value of stock options granted for 2024, 2023, and 2022 wer e $24.05 , $37.55 and $53.16, respectively, using the following assumptions: Weighted Average Black-Scholes Assumptions 2024 2023 2022 Risk-free interest rate 4.3 % 4.0 % 1.9 % Expected volatility 40.4 % 39.8 % 37.4 % Expected dividend yield 6.7 % 5.0 % 2.9 % Expected option life, in years 5 5 5 Stock Option Activity The following table summarizes stock option activity during 2024: In thousands, except per share data Number Weighted- Outstanding at January 1 951 $ 169.01 Granted 338 108.16 Exercised (1) 50.98 Canceled or expired (90) 153.20 Outstanding at December 31 1,198 $ 153.09 Exercisable at December 31 751 $ 169.86 The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised was immaterial for the periods presented. The related tax benefits and cash received from the exercise of stock options was also immaterial for the periods presented. The table below summarizes additional information related to stock options outstanding at December 31, 2024: Options in thousands / dollars in millions, except per-share data Outstanding Net of Options Number of options 1,173 751 Weighted-average exercise price per share $ 154.01 $ 169.86 Aggregate intrinsic value $ 2 $ — Weighted-average remaining contractual term, in years 6 4 Stock Units Eligible employees may receive restricted stock units or performance stock units as a portion of their total compensation. Restricted stock units are typically granted to selected management employees on an annual basis and vest over three years. Periodically, restricted stock units may be granted to selected employees based on special recognition or retention circumstances and generally vest from three years to seven years. Previously granted awards accrue dividend equivalents on outstanding units (in the form of additional stock units) based on dividends declared on Whirlpool common stock. These awards convert to unrestricted common stock at the conclusion of the vesting period. Performance stock units are granted to management employees on an annual basis and generally vest at the end of a three year performance period, converting to unrestricted common stock at the conclusion of the vesting period. The final award may equal 0% to 200% of the target grant, based on Whirlpool performance results relative to pre-established goals. We measure compensation cost for stock units based on the closing market price of Whirlpool common stock at the grant date, with adjustments for performance stock units to reflect the final award granted. The weighted average grant date fair values of awards granted during 2024, 2023, and 2022 we re $104.67, $125.44 and $158.27 , respectively. The total fair value of stock units vested during 2024, 2023, and 2022 was $48 million, $76 million and $67 million, respectively. The following table summarizes stock unit activity during 2024: Stock units in thousands, except per-share data Number of Weighted- Average Non-vested, at January 1 1,052 $ 150.19 Granted 507 104.67 Canceled (272) 134.37 Vested and transferred to unrestricted (294) 162.07 Non-vested, at December 31 993 $ 116.92 Non-employee Director Equity Awards In 2024, each non-employee director received an annual grant of unrestricted Whirlpool common stock, with the number of shares issued to the director determined by dividing $150,000 by the closing price of Whirlpool common stock on the date of the annual meeting of our stockholders.

Restructuring Charges [Abstract]
RESTRUCTURING CHARGES	RESTRUCTURING CHARGES We periodically take action to improve operating efficiencies, typically in connection with business acquisitions or changes in the economic environment. Our footprint and headcount reductions and organizational integration actions relate to discrete, unique restructuring events, primarily reflected in the following plans: In March 2024, the Company committed to workforce reduction plans in the United States and globally, in an effort to reduce complexity and simplify our organizational model after the European major domestic appliance transaction. The workforce reduction plans included involuntary severance actions as of the end of the first quarter of 2024. Total costs for these actions were $21 million, of which we incurred $14 million in employee termination costs and $7 million other associated costs. The majority of these costs resulted in cash settlements in 2024; the remainder will be paid in 2025. During the second quarter of 2024, the Company evaluated additional restructuring actions as part of the Company's organizational simplification efforts. Total costs for these actions were $58 million, which were primarily employee termination costs. The majority of these costs resulted in cash settlements in 2024; the remainder will be paid in 2025. The following tables summarize the changes to our restructuring liability during the twelve months ended December 31, 2024: Millions of Dollars December 31, 2023 Charge to Earnings Cash Paid Non-Cash and Other December 31, 2024 Employee Termination $ 3 $ 62 $ (59) $ (2) $ 4 Other exit costs — 17 (10) (5) $ 2 Total $ 3 $ 79 $ (69) $ (7) $ 6 The following table summarizes 2024 restructuring charges by operating segment: Millions of dollars 2024 Charges MDA North America 31 MDA Latin America 23 MDA Asia 6 SDA Global 5 Corporate / Other 14 Total $ 79

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXES Income tax expense was $10 million, $77 million, and $265 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease in tax expense in 2024 compared to 2023 includes lower earnings and legal entity restructuring tax benefits related to simplifying our legal entity structure in 2024 to reduce administrative costs associated with the prior structure. The completion of the restructuring in 2024 created a tax deductible loss which was recognized in 2024 and resulted in a $721 million net tax benefit partially offset by increases in valuation allowances and the divestiture tax impact. The change in tax expense in 2023 compared to 2022 includes legal entity restructuring tax benefits, related to simplifying the legal entity structure to reduce administrative costs associated with the prior structure. The completion of the restructuring created a tax-deductible loss which was recognized in the fourth quarter of 2023, and resulted in a $170 million net tax benefit, partially offset by increases in valuation allowances. The following table summarizes the difference between an income tax benefit and tax expense at the United States statutory rate of 21% in 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively, and the income tax expense at effective worldwide tax rates for the respective periods: Millions of dollars 2024 2023 2022 Earnings (loss) before income taxes United States $ (294) $ 9 $ (158) Foreign 107 584 (1,069) Earnings (loss) before income taxes $ (188) $ 593 $ (1,227) Income tax (benefit) expense computed at United States statutory rate $ (39) $ 125 $ (258) U.S. government tax incentives (19) (20) (19) Foreign government tax incentives, including BEFIEX (31) (30) (23) Foreign tax rate differential 26 41 (3) U.S. foreign tax credits (65) (43) 11 Valuation allowances 395 78 222 State and local taxes, net of federal tax benefit (56) (43) (21) Foreign withholding taxes 16 13 52 U.S. tax on foreign dividends and subpart F income (57) 36 22 Settlement of global tax audits 32 43 3 Changes in enacted tax rates 10 1 (2) Nondeductible loss on sale 56 5 421 Nondeductible fines and penalties — 18 59 Legal entity debt restructuring (3) — (159) Divestiture tax impact 239 — — Legal entity restructuring tax impact (721) (170) — Expiration/Forfeiture of net operating losses 143 5 — Foreign currency impacts 33 (23) (23) Non-deductible expenses 46 31 22 Other items, net 5 10 (39) Income tax computed at effective worldwide tax rates $ 10 $ 77 $ 265 Current and Deferred Tax Provision The following table summarizes our income tax (benefit) provision for 2024, 2023 and 2022: 2024 2023 2022 Millions of dollars Current Deferred Current Deferred Current Deferred United States $ (6) $ (437) $ (27) $ (212) $ (40) $ 65 Foreign 184 393 197 155 180 85 State and local 9 (133) (3) (33) (9) (16) $ 187 $ (177) $ 167 $ (90) $ 131 $ 134 Total income tax expense $ 10 $ 77 $ 265 United States Tax on Foreign Dividends We have historically reinvested all unremitted earnings of the majority of our foreign subsidiaries and affiliates, and therefore have not recognized any U.S. deferred tax liability on those earnings. The Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1.3 billion at December 31, 2024, of which approximately $1.1 billion was held by subsidiaries in foreign countries. Certain funds outside of the United States could be repatriated to fund our U.S. operations. If these funds were repatriated, they would likely not be subject to United States federal income tax under the previously taxed income or the dividend exemption rules. However, we would likely be required to accrue and pay United States state and local taxes and withholding taxes payable to various countries. The Company has included an estimate of $15 million of income tax expense in 2024 as an estimate of this hypothetical tax obligation. Valuation Allowances At December 31, 2024, we had net operating loss carryforwards of $3.8 billion, $1.2 billion of which were U.S. state net operating loss carryforwards, compared to $5.4 billion and $1.2 billion at December 31, 2023, respectively. The decrease in net operating loss carryforwards was primarily driven by the legal entity restructuring actions in 2024. Of the total net operating loss carryforwards at December 31, 2024, $1.1 billion do not expire, with substantially all of the remaining carryforwards expiring in various years through 2043. At December 31, 2024, we had $363 million of United States general business credit carryforwards available to offset future payments of federal income taxes, expiring between 2031 and 2043. We routinely review the future realization of deferred tax assets based on projected future reversal of taxable temporary differences, available tax planning strategies and projected future taxable income. We have recorded a valuation allowance to reflect the net estimated amount of certain deferred tax assets associated with net operating loss and other deferred tax assets we believe will be realized. Our recorded valuation allowance of $885 million at December 31, 2024 consists of $601 million of net operating loss carryforward deferred tax assets and $284 million of other deferred tax assets. Our recorded valuation allowance was $490 million at December 31, 2023 and consisted of $393 million of net operating loss carryforward deferred tax assets and $97 million of other deferred tax assets. The increase in our valuation allowance was primarily driven by the European major domestic appliance business transaction. Net operating loss carryforwards in 2023 of $2.1 billion related to the European major domestic appliance business as of December 31, 2023. Net deferred tax assets of $512 million, including $106 million of valuation allowances, associated with the disposal group were transferred to assets held for sale in the fourth quarter of 2023. For additional information, see Notes 10 and 16 to the 2023 Consolidated Financial Statements. Deferred Tax Liabilities and Assets Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities used for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The following table summarizes the significant components of our deferred tax liabilities and assets at December 31, 2024 and 2023: Millions of dollars 2024 2023 Deferred tax liabilities Intangibles $ 249 $ 429 Property, net 126 224 Right of use assets 171 190 Inventory Reserves — (3) Other 59 238 Total deferred tax liabilities $ 605 $ 1,078 Deferred tax assets U.S. general business credit carryforwards, including Energy Tax Credits $ 363 $ 365 Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax credits — 28 Lease liabilities 179 200 Pensions 33 64 Loss carryforwards 911 1,388 Postretirement obligations 28 29 Foreign tax credit carryforwards 151 94 Research and development capitalization 367 315 Employee payroll and benefits 53 48 Accrued expenses 82 52 Product warranty accrual 41 49 Receivable and inventory allowances 41 67 Other 656 676 Total deferred tax assets 2,905 3,375 Valuation allowances for deferred tax assets (885) (490) Deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowances 2,020 2,885 Reclassification of net deferred tax assets to held for sale — (515) Net deferred tax assets $ 1,415 $ 1,292 On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”) was enacted into law. Among other changes to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the IRA imposes a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax on certain corporations (the “CAMT”). To the extent a corporation is subject to the CAMT in a prior taxable year and in a later taxable year is subject to the regular corporate tax, such corporation may apply the prior amounts paid under the CAMT against its regular tax liability to the extent such credits do not reduce the regular tax liability below the CAMT applicable in such taxable year. We have no CAMT liability nor related deferred tax asset carryforward as of December 31, 2024. Unrecognized Tax Benefits The following table represents a reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits that if recognized would impact the effective tax rate, excluding federal benefits of state and local tax positions, and interest and penalties: Millions of dollars 2024 2023 2022 Balance, January 1 $ 380 $ 589 $ 580 Additions for tax positions of the current year 10 13 24 Additions for tax positions of prior years 14 22 32 Reductions for tax positions of prior years (52) (56) (45) Settlements during the period (1) (3) (188) (1) Lapses of applicable statute of limitation — — (1) Balance, December 31 $ 349 $ 380 $ 589 (1) During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company resolved a number of disputed tax positions with the U.S. and other tax authorities. The Company had previously recorded reserves for the risk associated with these tax positions, and the settlement of these matters resulted in a reduction in the Company's unrecognized tax benefits, which is shown in the table above. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits resulted in a net expense of $14 million, net benefit of $12 million and net expense of $24 million in December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We have accrued a total of $53 million, $78 million and $90 million at December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. It is reasonably possible that certain unrecognized tax benefits of $134 million could be settled with various related jurisdictions during the next 12 months. We are in various stages of tax disputes (including audits, appeals and litigation) with certain governmental tax authorities. We establish liabilities for the difference between tax return provisions and the benefits recognized in our financial statements. Such amounts represent a reasonable provision for taxes ultimately expected to be paid, and may need to be adjusted over time as more information becomes known. We are no longer subject to any significant tax disputes (including audits, appeals and litigation) for the years before 2012 relating to US Federal income taxes and for the years before 2003 relating to any state, local or foreign income taxes.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
SEGMENT INFORMATION	SEGMENT INFORMATION Beginning January 1, 2024, we reorganized our operating segment structure to better represent the revised structure within our portfolio transformation, including a greater focus on our strong value creating small domestic appliance business. The Company implemented this change to align with the Company's new operating structure, consistent with how the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker evaluates operational performance and allocates resources in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting. Our reportable segments consist of Major Domestic Appliances ("MDA") North America; MDA Europe, MDA Latin America; MDA Asia; and Small Domestic Appliances ("SDA") Global. All prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation. The MDA Europe business was deconsolidated upon the completion of the European contribution agreement transaction with Arcelik as of April 1, 2024. For additional information see Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The chief operating decision maker (CODM), who is the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, evaluates operational performance based on each segment's earnings (loss) before interest and taxes (EBIT). We define EBIT as operating profit less interest and sundry (income) expense and excluding restructuring costs, asset impairment charges and certain other items, if any, that management believes are not indicative of the region's ongoing performance . Cost of products sold is the significant expense regularly reviewed by the CODM and consists of costs associated with products sold, including but not limited to materials, labor, freight and warehousing. Other segment expenses/ (income) primarily include selling, general and administrative items. Total assets by segment are those assets directly associated with the respective operating activities. The "Other/Eliminations" column primarily includes corporate expenses, assets and eliminations, as well as restructuring costs, asset impairment charges and certain other items that management believes are not indicative of the segment's ongoing performance. Intersegment sales are eliminated within each segment. The table below summarizes performance by operating segment for the periods presented: OPERATING SEGMENTS Millions of dollars MDA North MDA Latin America MDA Asia MDA Europe (1) SDA Global Other/ Total Net sales 2024 $ 10,236 $ 3,498 $ 1,056 $ 804 $ 1,013 $ — $ 16,607 2023 10,761 3,352 969 3,403 970 — 19,455 2022 10,762 3,079 1,031 3,779 1,073 — 19,724 Cost of Products Sold 2024 $ 8,784 $ 2,966 $ 914 $ 726 $ 659 $ (23) $ 14,026 2023 8,927 2,853 845 3,053 640 (33) 16,285 2022 8,880 2,634 890 3,584 692 (29) 16,651 Other segment expenses/(income) 2024 $ 787 $ 287 $ 101 $ 87 $ 209 $ 1,047 $ 2,518 2023 826 312 102 325 191 498 2,254 2022 703 261 104 287 188 2,586 4,129 EBIT 2024 $ 665 $ 245 $ 41 $ (9) $ 145 $ (1,024) $ 63 2023 1,008 187 22 25 139 (465) 916 2022 1,179 184 37 (92) 193 (2,557) (1,056) Intersegment sales 2024 $ 117 $ 1,224 $ 43 $ 23 $ 13 $ (1,420) $ — 2023 210 1,530 43 81 — (1,864) — 2022 261 1,494 42 85 — (1,882) — Total assets 2024 $ 9,693 $ 3,813 $ 1,147 $ — $ 1,087 $ 561 $ 16,301 2023 10,216 4,037 1,054 685 1,134 186 17,312 2022 10,130 3,522 1,036 2,553 1,102 (1,219) 17,124 Capital expenditures 2024 $ 178 $ 181 $ 13 $ 22 $ 14 $ 43 $ 451 2023 216 133 8 104 16 72 549 2022 218 121 27 127 25 52 570 Depreciation and amortization 2024 $ 175 $ 63 $ 19 $ — $ 17 $ 59 $ 333 2023 200 66 21 — 13 61 361 2022 189 65 20 132 11 58 475 (1) MDA Europe consisted of our European major domestic appliance business which was contributed to Beko Europe as of April 1, 2024.

Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract]
ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES	ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES European Major Domestic Appliance Business Held for Sale On January 16, 2023, Whirlpool entered into a contribution agreement with Arçelik A.S. (“Arcelik”) to carve out and contribute our major domestic appliance European business operations into a newly formed European appliance company which constitutes a combination of Arcelik’s and Whirlpool's European businesses. The sale includes the Company's major domestic appliance business in EMEA, including nine production sites. On June 22, 2023, Whirlpool entered into a share purchase agreement with Arcelik for the sale of our MENA business. The sale was previously agreed upon in principle and announced on January 17, 2023, as part of the outcome of Whirlpool’s strategic review of the EMEA business. The financial impact of the MENA transaction has been included in the loss on sale and disposal of businesses related to the European major domestic appliance business transaction as discussed further below. The disposal group met the criteria for held for sale accounting during the fourth quarter of 2022. The operations of the European disposal group did not meet the criteria to be presented as discontinued operations. On April 1, 2024, the parties closed the aforementioned contribution transaction and MENA sale. Upon closing in the second quarter of 2024, the transaction resulted in the deconsolidation of the European major appliances and MENA businesses. Whirlpool owns approximately 25% and Arcelik owns approximately 75% of the European appliance company ("Beko Europe"). In connection with the transactions, we recorded a loss on disposal of $1.5 billion in the fourth quarter of 2022. The loss included a write-down of the net assets of $1.2 billion of the disposal group to a fair value of $139 million and also includes $393 million of cumulative currency translation adjustments, $98 million of other comprehensive loss on pension and $18 million of other transaction related costs. No goodwill was included in the disposal group. We recorded adjustments of $298 million and $106 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, resulting in a total loss of $1.9 billion for the transaction. These adjustments are recorded in the loss on sale and disposal of businesses and reflect ongoing reassessment of the fair value less costs to sell of the disposal group, transaction costs and provision for tax related indemnities recorded at closing of the transaction. Both Whirlpool and Arcelik retain an option for Arcelik to purchase the remaining equity interest in Beko for fair value, which could be material to the financial statements of the Company, depending on the performance of the business. The European disposal group was deconsolidated as of April 1, 2024. The following table presents the carrying amounts of the major classes of the disposal group's assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. December 31, Millions of dollars 2024 2023 Carrying amounts of major classes of assets Current Assets Cash and cash equivalents $ — $ 97 Accounts receivable, net of allowance of $0 and $28, respectively — 578 Inventories — 589 Prepaid and other current assets — 94 Total current assets — 1,358 Property, net of accumulated depreciation of $0 and $1,442, respectively — 952 Right of use assets — 162 Other intangibles, net of accumulated amortization of $0 and $149, respectively — 286 Deferred income taxes — 574 Other noncurrent assets — 13 Total noncurrent assets — 1,987 Total assets $ — $ 3,345 Carrying amounts of major classes of liabilities Current liabilities Accounts payable $ — $ 1,266 Accrued expenses — 218 Accrued advertising and promotions — 171 Employee compensation — 120 Notes payable — 4 Other current liabilities — 97 Total current liabilities — 1,876 Noncurrent liabilities Pension benefits — 168 Lease liabilities — 132 Other noncurrent liabilities — 87 Total noncurrent liabilities — 387 Total liabilities $ — $ 2,263 Total net assets of the disposal group classified as held for sale $ — $ 1,082 Assets held for sale Fair value of interest retained $ — $ 144 Liabilities held for sale Cumulative currency translation adjustment and Other comprehensive income on pension $ — $ 587 The European disposal group was deconsolidated as of April 1, 2024. The following table summarizes the European major appliances business' earnings (loss) available to Whirlpool before income taxes for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively: Twelve Months Ended December 31, in millions 2024 2023 2022 Earnings (loss) before income taxes $(9) $28 $(106) Earnings (loss) before income taxes excludes intercompany other income and expense which eliminates at Total Whirlpool level. Latin America sale of Brastemp water filtration subscription business On January 16, 2024, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement with a third-party buyer to sell the Company's Brastemp-branded water filtration subscription business in the Latin America region and the transaction closed on July 1, 2024. The Company received proceeds of approximately 294 million Brazilian reais (approximately $52 million at the date of transaction) and recorded a gain of approximately $34 million during the third quarter of 2024. The disposal group met the criteria of held for sale at December 31, 2023. The carrying amounts of the disposal group's assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, were immaterial. The disposal group's earnings (loss) available to Whirlpool before income taxes for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively, were also immaterial. Whirlpool India share sale On November 30, 2023, the Company announced its intention to enter into one or more transactions to sell up to 24% of the outstanding shares of its publicly listed Whirlpool of India Limited subsidiary ("Whirlpool India") in 2024, and to retain a majority interest following completion of the sale. On February 20, 2024, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Whirlpool Mauritius Limited ("Seller"), executed the sale of 30.4 million equity shares of Whirlpool India via an on-market trade. The sale, which was accounted for as an equity transaction, reduced Seller's ownership in Whirlpool India from 75% to 51%, and generated proceeds of $462 million on settlement. InSinkErator Acquisition On August 7, 2022, the Company entered into an Asset and Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Emerson Electric Co. (“Emerson”) to purchase Emerson’s InSinkErator business, a manufacturer of food waste disposers and instant hot water dispensers for home and commercial use, for a purchase price of $3 billion in cash, subject to customary adjustments. On October 31, 2022, we completed the acquisition of the InSinkErator business pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement. We used the net proceeds from a $2.5 billion borrowing under our delayed draw term loan facility and $500 million of cash on hand to fund the acquisition. See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information about the term loan facility. Goodwill of $1.1 billion which is not deductible for tax purposes, arose from this transaction and is allocated to the MDA North America reportable segment, and consists of expected future economic benefits arising from expected future product sales, value creation opportunities, operating efficiencies and other synergies that might result from the acquisition. The allocation has been made on the basis that the anticipated synergies identified will primarily benefit this reportable segment. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we incurred transaction and other costs in connection with the acquisition of approximately $44 million which are included in Selling, general and administrative expense in our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). Russia Sale Transaction On June 27, 2022, Whirlpool EMEA SpA, a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a share purchase agreement to sell the Company’s Russia business to Arcelik, subject to customary conditions at closing. The sale included the entirety of the Company’s operations in Russia, including the Company’s manufacturing facility in Lipetsk, Russia, and the sales organization in Moscow, Russia, as well as sales operations in Kazakhstan and other select CIS countries. On August 31, 2022, we completed the sale to Arcelik. The consideration includes contingent consideration based on future business and other conditions of the Russian operations. We will recognize the benefit of the contingent consideration when received due to the uncertainty in the Russian marketplace. Additionally, the contingent consideration is subject to a cap based on the agreed net asset value of the Russia business of €261 million at closing (approximately $262 million at August 31, 2022). In connection with the sale, we recorded a loss on disposal of $346 million in the second quarter of 2022. The loss included a charge of $333 million for the write-down of the net assets of the disposal group to fair value and $13 million of cumulative currency translation adjustments. On the closing date of August 31, 2022, we recorded an immaterial adjustment to the final loss amount, resulting in a total loss of $348 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Earnings before income taxes for Russia were not material for the periods presented. For additional information see Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cybersecurity Risk Management, Strategy, and Governance [Line Items]
Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block]	Information Security Risk Management and Strategy Our Board is responsible for monitoring the Company’s key risks and overseeing the risk management structure and programs implemented by management. At meetings throughout the year, the Board receives updates from business unit and functional leaders regarding significant risks and challenges within their areas of responsibility and associated mitigation plans and strategies. The Chief Financial and Administrative Officer is responsible for the Company’s enterprise risk management (ERM) system, which helps ensure enterprise risks are being effectively managed. Our ERM processes systematically identify, assess, mitigate and monitor enterprise risks, whether strategic, financial, non-financial, operational, compliance or reporting. As part of our risk management processes, we perform risk assessments in which we map and prioritize information security risks identified through the processes described above, including risks associated with our use of third-party service providers, based on probability, immediacy and potential magnitude. These assessments inform our risk mitigation strategies, which are reviewed regularly with the Board and management, and we view information security risks as one of the key risk categories we face. For example, our information technology and infrastructure has experienced and may in the future be vulnerable to cyberattacks (including ransomware attacks) or security incidents, and third parties have in the past and may in the future be able to access proprietary business information, and personal data that we collect, store and process. For more information regarding the information security-related risks we face, see the information in “Item 1A: Risk Factors” under the caption “We have been and may be subject to information technology system failures, cloud failures, network disruptions, cybersecurity attacks and breaches in data security, which may materially adversely affect our operations, financial condition and operating results”. Our risk mitigation process assesses, prioritizes, and monitors information security risks and vulnerabilities and focuses on embedment of risk mitigation efforts across our business. Among other things, our internal experts regularly conduct audits and tests of our information systems and our cybersecurity program is periodically assisted by established, independent third party consultants, who provide assistance through tabletop and other preparedness exercises. We also review information security threat information published by government entities and other organizations in which we participate and actively engage with suppliers, industry associations, key thought leaders and law enforcement communities as part of our continuous efforts to evaluate and enhance the effectiveness of our cybersecurity program. In 2022, we launched and required all salaried employees to complete a mandatory Global Cybersecurity and Privacy training, covering information security, end-user security policies, breach response, remote working, phishing and email security and digital threats. The training content is reassessed and refreshed each year to reflect evolving risks. Additionally, we maintain regular publications on cyber awareness on our Company portal and conduct ongoing simulated phishing exercises. We use the findings from these and other processes to improve our information security practices, procedures and technologies. In 2023, we implemented additional management governance through the creation of a Global Cybersecurity and Data Privacy Steering Committee, which meets periodically to review information security risks and vulnerabilities are being appropriately managed and mitigated. In addition, we maintain insurance to protect against potential losses arising from an information security incident. While we have not yet experienced any material impacts from a cyber attack, any one or more future cyber attacks could materially adversely impact the Company, including a loss of trust among our customers and consumers, departures of key employees, general diminishment of our global reputation and financial losses from remediation actions, loss of business or potential litigation or regulatory liability. Further, evolving market dynamics are increasingly driving heightened cybersecurity protections and mandating cybersecurity standards for our products, and we may incur additional costs to address these increased risks and to comply with such demands. In addition to the risk management processes identified above, Whirlpool also maintains active knowledge security and data privacy programs. Leveraging policies and governance, ongoing training and awareness as well as strong controls and systems-based approaches, these programs focus on protecting Whirlpool confidential information and compliance with applicable data privacy and data protection laws in all countries where we do business.

Cybersecurity Risk Board of Directors Oversight [Text Block]	Information Security Governance and Oversight Our risk management process and information security risk mitigation framework enables our Board and management to establish a mutual understanding of the effectiveness of our information security risk management practices and capabilities, including the division of responsibilities for reviewing our information security risk exposure and risk tolerance, tracking emerging information risks and ensuring proper escalation of certain key risks for periodic review by the Board and its committees. As part of its broader risk oversight activities, the Board oversees risks from information security threats, both directly and through the Audit Committee of the Board (the “Audit Committee”). As reflected in its charter, the Audit Committee assists the Board in its oversight of risk by periodically reviewing policies and guidelines with respect to risk assessment and risk management, including management reports on our processes to manage and report risks. As another element of its risk oversight activities, the Audit Committee receives reports quarterly from our Global Chief Information Officer (“CIO”) and Global Chief Information Security Officer (“CISO”) on the execution and effectiveness of our cybersecurity and privacy program, cybersecurity incidents, cyber resilience metrics and the global threat landscape. The Audit Committee also oversees our internal control over financial reporting, including with respect to financial reporting-related information systems. Our CISO, who manages our cybersecurity program, reports to our CIO regularly on how certain information security risks are being managed and progress towards agreed mitigation goals, as well as any potential material risks from cybersecurity threats. The CIO and CISO discuss these matters with our Audit Committee who reports to the Board on the substance of its reviews and discussions. In addition to these discussions, each year our CIO and CISO present to our Board on cybersecurity related trends and program updates. Our CIO and CISO are also responsible for prioritizing risk mitigation activities and developing a culture of risk-aware practices with strong support from management. Both our CIO and CISO have extensive background and expertise in information security, having served in senior leadership positions in the information and information security spaces, respectively, for many years prior to joining Whirlpool. The day-to-day monitoring, identification, and assessment of information security risks and incident response functions are managed centrally by our core cyber incident response team (the “CIRT”), which operationalizes our Cyber Incident Response Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan includes processes to triage, assess severity of, escalate, contain, investigate and remediate information security incidents, including those associated with our third-party service providers, as well as to comply with potentially applicable legal obligations and mitigate brand and reputational damage. Under the Plan, the CIRT may escalate matters as necessary to our CISO and CIO, General Counsel, and other senior leadership, depending on the severity classification of the incident. In addition to the ordinary-course Board and Audit Committee reporting and oversight described above, we also maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed for prompt reporting to the Board and timely public disclosure, as appropriate, of material events covered by our risk management framework, including information security risks.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
General Information	Whirlpool Corporation, a Delaware corporation, manufactures products in six countries and markets products in nearly every country around the world under brand names such as Whirlpool , KitchenAid , Maytag , Consul , Brastemp , Amana , JennAir, and InSinkErator . We conduct our business through four operating segments, which we define based on product category and geography. Whirlpool Corporation's operating and reportable segments consist of Major
Change in Presentation	In 2024, the Company changed its rounding presentation. Certain columns and rows within the consolidated financial statements and tables presented may not add due to rounding and percentages have been calculated from the underlying whole-dollar amounts. This change is not material and does not impact the comparability of our consolidated financial statements
Principles of Consolidation	The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, and include all majority-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. We do not consolidate the financial statements of any company in which we have an ownership interest of 50% or less, unless that company is deemed to be a variable interest entity ("VIE") of which we are the primary beneficiary. VIEs are consolidated when the company is the primary beneficiary of these entities and has the ability to directly impact the activities of these entities. Our primary business purpose and involvement with VIEs is for product development and distribution.
Risks and Uncertainties	The Consolidated Financial Statements presented herein reflect estimates and assumptions made by management at December 31, 2024 and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024. These estimates and assumptions affect, among other things, the Company’s goodwill, long-lived asset and indefinite-lived intangible asset valuation; inventory valuation; assessment of the annual effective tax rate; valuation of deferred income taxes and income tax contingencies; and the allowance for expected credit losses and bad debt. Events and changes in circumstances arising after February 13, 2025, including those resulting from the impacts of macroeconomic volatility, as well as the ongoing international conflicts, will be reflected in management’s estimates for future periods. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets We continue to monitor the significant global economic uncertainty to assess the outlook for demand for our products and the impact on our business and our overall financial performance. The results of the annual assessment performed as of October 1, 2024 determined that the carrying value of our Maytag trademark exceeded its fair value by $381 million. The trademark remains at risk for future impairment at December 31, 2024. The InSinkErator trademark is also at risk for impairment at December 31, 2024. The goodwill in our reporting units or other indefinite-lived intangible assets are not presently at risk for future impairment. The potential impact of demand disruptions, production impacts or supply constraints along with a number of other factors could negatively effect revenues for the Maytag and InSinkErator trademarks, but we remain committed to the strategic actions necessary to realize the long-term forecasted revenues and profitability of these trademarks. A lack of recovery or further deterioration in market conditions, a sustained trend of weaker than expected financial performance for our Maytag and InSinkErator trademarks, among other factors, as a result of macroeconomic factors or other unforeseen events could result in an impairment charge in future periods which could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements. Income taxes Under U.S. GAAP, the Company calculates its quarterly tax provision based on an estimated effective tax rate for the year and then adjusts this amount by certain discrete items each quarter. Potential changing and volatile macroeconomic conditions could cause fluctuations in forecasted earnings before income taxes. As such, the Company's effective tax rate could be subject to volatility as forecasted earnings before income taxes are impacted by events which cannot be predicted. In addition, potential future economic deterioration brought on by global events beyond our control or other factors, such as potential sales of businesses and new tax legislation may negatively impact the realizability and/or valuation of certain deferred tax assets.
Reclassifications	We reclassified certain prior period amounts in the Consolidated Financial Statements to conform with current year presentation.
Use of Estimates	We are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes. The most significant assumptions are estimates in determining the fair value of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, assets held for sale, legal contingencies, income taxes and pension and other postretirement benefits. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition and Sales Incentives and Revenue from Contracts with Customers	Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with our customers are satisfied, the sales price is determinable, and the risk and rewards of ownership are transferred. Generally the risk and rewards of ownership are transferred with the transfer of control of our products and services. For the majority of our sales, control is transferred to the customer as soon as products are shipped. For a portion of our sales, control is transferred to the customer upon receipt of products at the customer's location. Sales are net of allowances for product returns, which are based on historical return rates and certain promotions.The cost of sales incentives is accrued at the date at which revenue is recognized by Whirlpool as a reduction of revenue. If new incentives are added after the product has been shipped, then they are accrued at that time, also as a reduction of revenue. These accrued promotions are recognized based on the expected value amount of incentives that will be ultimately claimed by trade customers or consumers. If the amount of incentives cannot be reasonably estimated, an accrued promotion liability is recognized for the maximum potential amount. In accordance with Topic 606, revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied; generally this occurs with the transfer of control of our products or services. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring products or providing services. Certain customers may receive cash and/or non-cash incentives, which are accounted for as variable consideration. To achieve the core principle, the Company applies the following five steps: 1. Identify the contract with a customer A contract with a customer exists when (i) the Company enters into an agreement with a customer that defines each party's rights regarding the products or services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these products or services, (ii) both parties to the contract are committed to perform their respective obligations, (iii) the contract has commercial substance, and (iv) the Company determines that collection of substantially all consideration for products or services that are transferred is probable based on the customer's intent and ability to pay the promised consideration. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer's ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors including the customer's payment history or, in the case of a new customer, published credit and financial information pertaining to the customer. 2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the products or services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the product or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the products or services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised products or services, the Company must apply judgment to determine whether promised products or services are capable of being distinct and distinct in the context of the contract. If these criteria are not met, the promised products or services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation. The Company has elected to account for shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment cost as permitted by the standard. 3. Determine the transaction price The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring products or services to the customer. To the extent the transaction price is variable, revenue is recognized at an amount equal to the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled. This estimate includes customer sales incentives which are accounted for as a reduction to revenue and estimated primarily using the expected value method. Determining the transaction price requires significant judgment, which is discussed by revenue category in further detail below. In practice, we do not offer extended payment terms beyond one year to customers. As such, we do not adjust our consideration for financing arrangements. 4. Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis unless a portion of the variable consideration related to the contract is allocated entirely to a performance obligation. The Company determines standalone selling price based on the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately. 5. Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation The Company generally satisfies performance obligations at a point in time. Revenue is recognized based on the transaction price at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring a promised product or service to a customer. The impact to revenue related to prior period performance obligations is less than 1% of global consolidated revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Expected Credit Losses	We carry accounts receivable at sales value less an allowance for expected credit losses. We estimate our expected credit losses primarily by using an aging methodology and establish customer-specific reserves for higher risk trade customers. Our expected credit losses are evaluated and controlled within each geographic region considering the unique credit risk specific to the country, marketplace and economic environment. We take into account a combination of specific customer circumstances, credit conditions, market conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions and the history of write-offs and collections in developing the reserve. We evaluate items on an individual basis when determining accounts receivable write-offs. In general, our policy is to not charge interest on trade receivables after the invoice becomes past due. A receivable is considered past due if payment has not been received within agreed upon invoice terms.
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets	In an effort to manage economic and geographic trade customer risk, from time to time, the Company will transfer, primarily without recourse, accounts receivable balances of certain customers to financial institutions resulting in a nominal impact recorded in interest and sundry (income) expense. These transactions are accounted for as sales of the receivables resulting in the receivables being de-recognized from the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These transfers do not require continuing involvement from the Company.
Freight and Warehousing Costs	We classify freight and warehousing costs within cost of products sold in our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).
Cash and Cash Equivalents	All highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less are considered cash equivalents. Short-term investments are primarily comprised of money market funds and highly liquid, low risk investments with initial maturities less than 90 days.
Fair Value Measurements	We measure fair value based on an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, a three-tiered fair value hierarchy is established, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: (Level 1) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; (Level 2) inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable, either directly or indirectly; and (Level 3) unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Certain investments are valued based on net asset value (NAV), which approximates fair value. Such basis is determined by referencing the respective fund's underlying assets. There are no unfunded commitments or other restrictions associated with these investments. We had Level 3 assets at December 31, 2024 and 2023 that included pension plan assets disclosed in Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. We had no Level 3 liabilities at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We measured fair value for money market funds, available for sale investments and held-to-maturity securities using quoted market prices in active markets for identical or comparable assets. We measured fair value for derivative contracts, all of which have counterparties with high credit ratings, based on model driven valuations using significant inputs derived from observable market data. We also measured fair value for disposal groups held for sale based on the expected proceeds received from the sale. For assets measured at net asset values, we have no unfunded commitments or significant restraints. We measured fair value (non-recurring) for goodwill and other intangibles using a discounted cash flow model and a relief-from-royalty method, respectively, with inputs based on both observable and unobservable market data.
Inventories	MDA North America and MDA Europe (through Q1 2024) reporting segments use the FIFO method of inventory valuation. MDA Latin America and MDA Asia inventories are stated at average cost. SDA Global consists of both inventory valuation methods. Costs include materials, labor and production overhead at normal production capacity. Costs do not exceed net realizable values.
Property	Property is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. For production machinery and equipment, we record depreciation based on units produced, unless units produced drop below a minimum threshold at which point depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method. For certain acquired production assets, we depreciate costs based on the straight-line method. We classify gains and losses associated with asset dispositions in the same line item as the underlying depreciation of the disposed asset in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). We record impairment losses on long-lived assets, excluding goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles, when events and circumstances indicate the assets may be impaired and the estimated undiscounted future cash flows generated by those assets are less than their carrying amounts. Capitalization of Internal Use Software Costs We capitalize certain computer software development costs associated with qualifying application development stage activities or the acquisition of computer software for internal use. Capitalization is determined based on specific criteria, including whether the software is in the development stage and meets defined criteria for capitalization. Capitalized software costs are recognized as part of property, plant, and equipment and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the software, generally not exceeding five years.
Leases	We determine if an arrangement contains a lease at contract inception and determine the lease term by assuming the exercise of those renewal options that are reasonably assured. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We elect to not separate lease and non-lease components for all leases. As the Company's lease agreements normally do not provide an implicit interest rate, we apply the Company's incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future lease payments. Relevant information used in determining the Company's incremental borrowing rate includes the duration of the lease, location of the lease, and the Company's credit risk relative to risk-free market rates. Certain leases also include options to purchase the underlying asset at fair market value. If leased assets have leasehold improvements, typically the depreciable life of those leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term. Additionally, certain lease agreements include lease payment adjustments for inflation.
Goodwill and Other Intangibles	We perform our annual impairment assessment for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of October 1st and more frequently if indicators of impairment exist. We consider qualitative factors to assess if it is more likely than not that the fair value for goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets is below the carrying amount. We may also elect to bypass the qualitative assessment and perform a quantitative assessment. In conducting a qualitative assessment, the Company analyzes a variety of events or factors that may influence the fair value of the reporting unit or indefinite-lived intangible asset, including, but not limited to: macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial performance, share price and other relevant factors.
Goodwill	We have four reporting units which we assess for impairment which also represent our operating segments and are defined as Major Domestic Appliances ("MDA") North America, MDA Latin America, MDA Asia, and Small Domestic Appliances ("SDA") Global. In performing a quantitative assessment of goodwill, we estimate each reporting unit's fair value using the best information available to us, including market information and discounted cash flow projections, also referred to as the income approach. The income approach uses the reporting unit's projections of estimated operating results and cash flows and discounts them using a market participant discount rate based on a weighted-average cost of capital. We further validate our estimates of fair value under the income approach by incorporating the market approach.
Intangible Assets	We perform a quantitative assessment of other indefinite-lived intangible assets, which are primarily comprised of trademarks. We estimate the fair value of these intangible assets using the relief-from-royalty method, which primarily requires assumptions related to projected revenues from our long-range plan, assumed royalty rates that could be payable if we did not own the trademark, and a market participant discount rate based on a weighted-average cost of capital. Other definite-life intangible assets are amortized over their useful life and are assessed for impairment when impairment indicators are present.
Supply Chain Financing Arrangements	The Company has ongoing agreements globally with various third-parties to allow certain suppliers the opportunity to sell receivables due from us to participating financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institutions. accounts payable
Derivative Financial Instruments	We use derivative instruments designated as cash flow, fair value and net investment hedges to manage our exposure to the volatility in material costs, foreign currency and interest rates on certain debt instruments. Changes in the fair value of derivative assets or liabilities (i.e., gains or losses) are recognized depending upon the type of hedging relationship and whether a hedge has been designated. For those derivative instruments that qualify for hedge accounting, we designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a cash flow hedge, fair value hedge, or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. For a derivative instrument designated as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is recognized in earnings immediately with the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item. For a derivative instrument designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the derivative's gain or loss is initially reported as a component of Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and is subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged exposure affects earnings. For a derivative instrument designated as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, the effective portion of the derivative's gain or loss is reported in Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) as part of the cumulative translation adjustment. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognized immediately in current net earnings. Derivative instruments are accounted for at fair value based on market rates. Derivatives where we elect hedge accounting are designated as either cash flow, fair value or net investment hedges. Derivatives that are not accounted for based on hedge accounting are marked to market through earnings. If the designated cash flow hedges are highly effective, the gains and losses are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified to earnings to offset the impact of the hedged items when they occur. In the event it becomes probable the forecasted transaction to which a cash flow hedge relates will not occur, the derivative would be terminated and the amount in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) would be recognized in earnings. The fair value of the hedge asset or liability is present in either other current assets/liabilities or other noncurrent assets/liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and in other within cash provided by (used in) operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Using derivative instruments means assuming counterparty credit risk. Counterparty credit risk relates to the loss we could incur if a counterparty were to default on a derivative contract. We generally deal with investment grade counterparties and monitor the overall credit risk and exposure to individual counterparties. We do not anticipate nonperformance by any counterparties. The amount of counterparty credit exposure is limited to the unrealized gains, if any, on such derivative contracts. We do not require nor do we post collateral on such contracts. Hedging Strategy In the normal course of business, we manage risks relating to our ongoing business operations including those arising from changes in commodity prices, foreign exchange rates and interest rates. Fluctuations in these rates and prices can affect our operating results and financial condition. We use a variety of strategies, including the use of derivative instruments, to manage these risks. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Commodity Price Risk We enter into commodity derivative contracts on various commodities to manage the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of materials used in our manufacturing process. The objective of these hedges is to reduce the variability of cash flows associated with the forecasted purchase of commodities. Foreign Currency and Interest Rate Risk We incur expenses associated with the procurement and production of products in a limited number of countries, while we sell in the local currencies of a large number of countries. Our primary foreign currency exchange exposures result from cross-currency sales of products. As a result, we enter into foreign exchange contracts to hedge certain firm commitments and forecasted transactions to acquire products and services that are denominated in foreign currencies. We enter into certain undesignated non-functional currency asset and liability hedges that relate primarily to short-term payables, receivables, intercompany loans and dividends. When we hedge a foreign currency denominated payable or receivable with a derivative, the effect of changes in the foreign exchange rates are reflected currently in interest and sundry (income) expense for both the payable/receivable and the derivative. Therefore, as a result of the economic hedge, we do not elect hedge accounting. We also enter into hedges to mitigate currency risk primarily related to forecasted foreign currency denominated expenditures, intercompany financing agreements and royalty agreements and designate them as cash flow hedges. Gains and losses on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, to the extent they are included in the assessment of effectiveness, are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified to earnings to offset the impact of the hedged items when they occur. We may enter into cross-currency interest rate swaps to manage our exposure relating to cross-currency debt. Outstanding notional amounts of cross-currency interest rate swap agreements were $618 million at December 31, 2024, December 31 ,2023, and December 31, 2022. We may enter into interest rate swap agreements to manage interest rate risk exposure. Our interest rate swap agreements, if any, effectively modify our exposure to interest rate risk, primarily through converting certain floating rate debt to a fixed rate basis, and certain fixed rate debt to a floating rate basis. These agreements involve either the receipt or payment of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments or receipts, respectively, over the life of the agreements without an exchange of the underlying principal amounts. We may enter into swap rate lock agreements to effectively reduce our exposure to interest rate risk by locking in interest rates on probable long-term debt issuances. There were no outstanding notional amounts of interest rate swap agreements at December 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Net Investment Hedging
Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions	Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are translated into United States dollars at exchange rates existing at the respective balance sheet dates. Translation adjustments resulting from fluctuations in exchange rates are recorded as a separate component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). The results of operations of foreign subsidiaries are translated at the average exchange rates during the respective periods. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in net earnings.
Research and Development Costs	Research and development costs are charged to expense
Advertising Costs	Advertising costs are charged to expense when the advertisement is first communicated
Income Taxes and Indirect Tax Matters	We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted rates. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets is recognized in income in the period of the enactment date. We recognize, primarily in other noncurrent liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, the effects of uncertain income tax positions. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are reflected in income tax expense. We record liabilities, net of the amount, after determining it is more likely than not that the uncertain tax position will not be sustained upon examination based on its technical merits. We accrue for indirect tax contingencies when we determine that a loss is probable and the amount or range of loss is reasonably estimable.
Share-based Incentive Plans	Share-based compensation expense is based on the grant date fair value and is expensed over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (generally the vesting period). The Company's Share-based incentive plans include stock options, performance stock units, and restricted stock units, among other award types. The fair value of stock options are determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which incorporates assumptions regarding the risk-free interest rate, expected volatility, expected option life, expected forfeitures and dividend yield. Expected forfeitures are based on historical experience. Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing stock price on the date of grant. The fair value of restricted stock units and performance stock units is generally based on the closing market price of Whirlpool common stock on the grant date. Share-based compensation is recorded in selling, general and administrative expense on our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).
Acquisitions	We include the results of operations of the businesses in which we acquire a controlling financial interest in our Consolidated Financial Statements beginning as of the acquisition date. On the acquisition date, we recognize, separate from goodwill, the assets acquired, including separately identifiable intangible assets, and the liabilities assumed based on the preliminary purchase price allocation. The excess of the consideration transferred over the fair values assigned to the net identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired business is recognized as goodwill. Transaction costs are recognized separately from the acquisition and are expensed as incurred. We may adjust preliminary amounts recognized at the acquisition date to their subsequently determined acquisition-date fair values during the measurement period which is twelve months from acquisition date.
Equity Method Investments	Our primary equity method investments include partial ownership in Whirlpool China, an entity that was previously controlled by the Company, and partial ownership in Beko Europe B.V. (Beko), a newly formed entity resulting from the April 1, 2024 transaction with Arcelik. Whirlpool China and Beko are considered related parties. The fair value of the investment in Beko at the date of deconsolidation was calculated based on a discounted cash flow analysis and multiple market data points (Level 3 input), resulting in a fair value of $186 million. As of December 31, 2024, the carrying amount of the investment is $74 million, reflecting the recognition of equity method investment losses during the year, which includes restructuring charges of $74 million. The fair value of our investment in Whirlpool China, based on the quoted market price, is $193 million as of December 31, 2024. Management has concluded that there are no indicators of other than temporary impairment related to these investments. The licensing revenue from our equity method investments and their subsidiaries is not material for the periods presented. There are also no material accounts receivable or sales with these investments for the periods presented. The Company’s share of the results of equity method investments and elimination of intra-entity results are included in the Equity method investment income (loss), net of tax in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). The investment balance is reflected within other noncurrent assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the Other/Eliminations column within the Segment Information footnote.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards and Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Effective	Adoption of New Accounting Standards On January 1, 2025, we adopted the FASB issued Update 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures". The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements, however we have expanded our Segment disclosure to include additional information that is significant to the chief operating decision maker, who is the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. For additional information on the required disclosures related to the impact of adopting this standard, see Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. All other standards adopted for the year ended December 31, 2024 did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Effective In December 2023, the FASB issued Update 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures". This Update applies to all entities that are subject to Topic 740. The amendments in this Update improve income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information as well as the effectiveness of certain other income tax disclosures. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The standard should be applied on a prospective basis, but retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this new standard. In November 2024, the FASB issued Update 2024-03, "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)". This update applies to all public business entities. The Board is issuing this Update to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) in commonly presented expense captions (such as cost of sales, SG&A, and research and development). The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this new standard. All other issued and not yet effective accounting standards are not relevant to the Company.
Segment Information	Beginning January 1, 2024, we reorganized our operating segment structure to better represent the revised structure within our portfolio transformation, including a greater focus on our strong value creating small domestic appliance business. The Company implemented this change to align with the Company's new operating structure, consistent with how the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker evaluates operational performance and allocates resources in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting. Our reportable segments consist of Major Domestic Appliances ("MDA") North America; MDA Europe, MDA Latin America; MDA Asia; and Small Domestic Appliances ("SDA") Global. All prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation. The MDA Europe business was deconsolidated upon the completion of the European contribution agreement transaction with Arcelik as of April 1, 2024. For additional information see Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The chief operating decision maker (CODM), who is the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, evaluates operational performance based on each segment's earnings (loss) before interest and taxes (EBIT). We define EBIT as operating profit less interest and sundry (income) expense and excluding restructuring costs, asset impairment charges and certain other items, if any, that management believes are not indicative of the region's ongoing performance . Cost of products sold is the significant expense regularly reviewed by the CODM and consists of costs associated with products sold, including but not limited to materials, labor, freight and warehousing. Other segment expenses/ (income) primarily include selling, general and administrative items. Total assets by segment are those assets directly associated with the respective operating activities. The "Other/Eliminations" column primarily includes corporate expenses, assets and eliminations, as well as restructuring costs, asset impairment charges and certain other items that management believes are not indicative of the segment's ongoing performance. Intersegment sales are eliminated within each segment.
