On November 27, 2025, Whirlpool Corporation's (the "Company") wholly-owned subsidiary, Whirlpool Mauritius Limited ("Seller"), executed the sale of 14,255,000 equity shares of the Company's publicly listed Whirlpool of India Limited subsidiary ("Whirlpool India") via an on-market trade. The transaction reduces Seller's ownership in Whirlpool India from 51% to approximately 40%, and generated gross sales proceeds of approximately $166 million on settlement, which occurred on November 28, 2025. The Company continues to evaluate all transaction options to further reduce its equity stake in Whirlpool India in line with its prior-stated equity reduction goal by the end of the first half of 2026. The Company expects to use transaction proceeds to reduce debt.

#### Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-looking Statements
Certain statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K relating to equity stake reduction timing and use of proceeds constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These statements reflect management's current expectations regarding future events and speak only as of the date of this current report. There can be no guarantee that proceeds will be used in line with expectations or that further reductions in equity stake will occur. Forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, and should not be read as guarantees that any transaction will be consummated during the referenced time period or at all. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from these expectations include, among other things, alternative uses for proceeds received, and delay or lack of implementation of further equity stake reductions based on market factors or other conditions. In addition to these risks, reference should also be made to the factors discussed under "Risk Factors" in Whirlpool Corporation's periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the forward-looking statements contained in this current report are based upon what are believed to be reasonable assumptions, investors cannot be assured that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements, and the differences may be material. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this current report and, except as expressly required by applicable law, Whirlpool Corporation assumes no obligation to update or revise them to reflect new events or circumstances.
