Whirlpool reaffirmed its sales guidance for 2024, anticipating net sales of $16.9 billion, down from $19.5 billion reported in the year-ago period. The company anticipates an ongoing EBIT margin of 6%, indicating a decrease from 6.1% reported in 2023. Whirlpool revised its GAAP EPS view for 2024 to 50 cents, owing to the updated GAAP tax rate and a non-cash charge related to the Europe transaction. However, the company reiterated its ongoing EPS guidance of $12. The ongoing earnings guidance includes approximately $300 million of cost actions. In 2023, WHR reported EPS of $8.72 and $16.16 on a GAAP and ongoing basis, respectively. Cash provided by operating activities is expected to be nearly $1.05 billion, with an estimated free cash flow of roughly $500 million. This includes nearly $250-$300 million of MDA Europe cash usage. WHR anticipates paying dividends of roughly $400 million in 2024.
