Factors Likely to Influence Whirlpool's (WHR) Q1 Earnings
Read MoreHide Full Article
Whirlpool Corporation (WHR - Free Report) is slated to release first-quarter 2023 results on Apr 24, after the closing bell. The household appliance company is expected to have witnessed revenue and earnings declines in the to-be-reported quarter.
For first-quarter revenues, the Zacks Consensus Estimate is pegged at $4.5 billion, suggesting an 8.6% decline from the prior-year quarter’s reported figure. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for first-quarter earnings has moved down 9.5% in the past 60 days to $1.99, indicating a 62.5% decrease from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.
We expect the company’s first-quarter total revenues to decrease 7.9% year over year to $4.5 billion and the bottom line to plunge 53.3% to $2.48 per share.
The company delivered an earnings surprise of 13.4% in the last reported quarter. Also, the bottom line beat estimates by 4.1%, on average, over the trailing four quarters.
Whirlpool has been on track with cost-based price increases to protect margins and productivity amid the ongoing supply-chain constraints and significant inflationary pressures. The company has been implementing cost takeout actions, including curtailing structural and discretionary costs, capturing raw material deflation opportunities, effectively managing working capital, and syncing supply chain and labor levels with demand.
It announced significant cost-based price increases of 5-18% in various countries. WHR also launched a cost takeout program worth $500 million, which is likely to have reduced fixed and variable costs.
However, the company has been reeling under a challenging environment and sluggish demand from rising inflation. Global supply-chain disruptions and rising raw material costs are likely to have acted as headwinds.
The company has been witnessing elevated raw materials, freight and logistics costs, as well as energy costs. Also, continued investments in marketing and technology, as well as currency headwinds, are likely to have dented the bottom-line performance in the quarter under review.
