Description: WHR Whirlpool January 08, 2026

Whirlpool Corporation (NYSE: WHR) designs, manufactures, and markets a broad portfolio of home appliances-including refrigerators, laundry machines, cooking equipment, and dishwashers-under brands such as Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, and JennAir. The company serves North America, Latin America, Asia, and other international markets, selling through retailers, distributors, builders, and direct-to-consumer channels. Founded in 1911, Whirlpool is headquartered in Benton Harbor, Michigan, and operates within the GICS Household Appliances sub-industry.

Key recent metrics show FY 2024 revenue of roughly $22 billion with an operating margin of about 9 %, while free cash flow remained positive at approximately $1.2 billion, underscoring solid cash generation despite a modest slowdown in consumer discretionary spending. The business is highly sensitive to housing-starts and renovation activity, which drive appliance replacement cycles; a 5 % dip in U.S. housing starts historically correlates with a 1–2 % decline in Whirlpool’s top-line. Additionally, the company is navigating supply-chain pressures on semiconductor components, which have compressed inventory turns to roughly 4.5 × in 2023, below the 5 × industry average.
