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 a market transaction. 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. In January 2025, we announced our intent to reduce our ownership stake in Whirlpool India and continue to evaluate various transaction structures, including via market sale and negotiated transaction. In October 2025, we signed certain brand license, technology license, and transition service agreements with Whirlpool India.

In connection with the sale, we recorded a gain, net of transaction and other costs, of $251 million during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025. The total transaction amount includes $599 million for the fair value of the interest retained, $278 million for the carrying value of the non-controlling interest in Whirlpool India, and $166 million of consideration received from the sale of shares. The gain on sale is equal to the difference between this total transaction amount and the carrying value of Whirlpool India’s net assets of $378 million, further adjusted for the allocation of $217 million of goodwill to the disposal group, the release of $187 million of cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments, and $10 million of divestment costs.
