Whirlpool could take $1 billion revenue hit from strong dollar: CEO

2015-02-04 21:58:26| Appliances - Topix.net

If the U.S. dollar stays at current levels, Whirlpool Corp's revenue could take a hit of up $1 billion in 2015, but the world's largest appliance maker expects to protect its profits, Chief Executive Officer Jeff Fettig told Reuters on Wednesday. Raising prices in some foreign markets should offset some of the effects of the strong dollar, which reduces the value of goods sold overseas, he said.
