    March 26, 2026, 6:28 AM EDT. Whirlpool (WHR) shares have dropped 28% year-to-date amid a tough macro environment, including rising costs and increased competition from Asian imports. Q2 revenue fell 5.4% to $3.77 billion, missing estimates, while adjusted EPS dropped to $1.34 from $2.39 last year. Net income plunged 70% to $65 million, and profit margins contracted. Analysts cut earnings forecasts by over 25% for this year and next, leading to a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell).
