Whirlpool Shares Rise 7.6% as Investors Weigh $154M Debt Position
Whirlpool Corporation gained about $171 million in market cap Friday, with shares up 7.6% to $40.72. That’s just ahead of the $153.75 million in annual coupon payments tied to $2 billion in secured notes issued in June. The bond coupon is the fixed yearly interest rate. The comparison just shows the difference in size — it doesn’t suggest a new cost, since the notes mostly replaced lower-coupon 2026-27 bonds and revolving debt.
