Operational Highlights and Outlook
The company noted that the marginal revenue decrease in Q2 (July-September) was due to a decline in refrigerator industry growth, compounded by competitive pricing pressures. Whirlpool is focusing on premiumization and cost productivity to navigate macroeconomic challenges. Gross margin improved due to cost productivity actions, while profitability was impacted by lower revenue and increased E-waste provisions. The company’s subsidiary, Elica PB India, continues to deliver healthy PBT margins.
The P4G (productivity for growth) program led to improvements in material costs for the six-month period, which were offset by an additional price upcharge provision for E-Waste and lower volume impact. The press release was dated November 4, 2025.
