WASHINGTON (dpa-AFX) - Fitch Ratings said Wednesday that it has affirmed Whirlpool Corp.'s (WHR) ratings, including the company's Issuer Default Rating, at 'BBB'.
The Rating Outlook is Stable.
Fitch placed Whirlpool's ratings on Rating Watch Negative in July following the company's announcement that it has entered into binding agreements to acquire a majority interest in Indesit Company S.p.A. for about EUR758 million or $957 million, based on the exchange rate as of Sept. 30.
