(1) | Mr. Bitzer served as the Principal Executive Officer (PEO) for the entirety of 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2020 and the Company’s other NEOs for the applicable years were as follows:
2023: Messrs. Peters and Morel and Mses. Martin and Harter. 2022: Messrs. Peters, Morel, Joseph T. Liotine and João C. Brega. 2021: Messrs. Peters, Liotine, Morel, and Brega. 2020: Messrs. Peters, Liotine, Morel, and Samuel Wu.
(2) | Amounts reported in this column represent (i) the total compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year for Mr. Bitzer and (ii) the average of the total compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the NEOs listed in footnote 1 for each applicable year.
(3) | To calculate compensation actually paid, adjustments were made to the amounts reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year. A reconciliation of the adjustments for Mr. Bitzer and for the average of the other NEOs is set forth following the footnotes to this table.
(4) | Pursuant to rules of the SEC, the comparison assumes $100 was invested on December 31, 2019 in our common stock. Historical stock price performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock price performance.
(5) | Index TSR reflects the S&P 500 Household Durables Index.
(6) | As noted in the Compensation Discussion & Analysis section, Ongoing EBIT and Free Cash Flow represent the two, equally weighted, performance goals for determining the Company Performance Factor under the 2023 short-term incentive program. Given their use in the short-term incentive program, the Committee selected Ongoing EBIT and Free Cash Flow as the Company Selected Measures. Ongoing EBIT consists of GAAP net earnings available to Whirlpool before net earnings (loss) available to non-controlling interests, income tax expense (benefit), and interest expense; for 2023, it excludes the impact of M&A transactions and legacy EMEA legal matters; for 2022, it excludes the impact of M&A transactions, impairment of goodwill, intangibles and other assets, and substantial liquidation of a subsidiary; for 2021, it excludes the impact of M&A transactions, gain on previously held equity interest, and product warranty and liability reserve release; for 2020, it excludes restructuring expense, product warranty and liability reserve release, gain on sale and disposal of business, and sale leaseback, real estate and receivable adjustments. Free cash flow consists of GAAP cash provided by operating activities after capital expenditures. For 2020, free cash flow is cash provided by operating activities after capital expenditures, proceeds from the sale of assets and businesses, and changes in restricted cash.

Non-GAAP Measure Description | As noted in the Compensation Discussion & Analysis section, Ongoing EBIT and Free Cash Flow represent the two, equally weighted, performance goals for determining the Company Performance Factor under the 2023 short-term incentive program. Given their use in the short-term incentive program, the Committee selected Ongoing EBIT and Free Cash Flow as the Company Selected Measures. Ongoing EBIT consists of GAAP net earnings available to Whirlpool before net earnings (loss) available to non-controlling interests, income tax expense (benefit), and interest expense; for 2023, it excludes the impact of M&A transactions and legacy EMEA legal matters; for 2022, it excludes the impact of M&A transactions, impairment of goodwill, intangibles and other assets, and substantial liquidation of a subsidiary; for 2021, it excludes the impact of M&A transactions, gain on previously held equity interest, and product warranty and liability reserve release; for 2020, it excludes restructuring expense, product warranty and liability reserve release, gain on sale and disposal of business, and sale leaseback, real estate and receivable adjustments. Free cash flow consists of GAAP cash provided by operating activities after capital expenditures. For 2020, free cash flow is cash provided by operating activities after capital expenditures, proceeds from the sale of assets and businesses, and changes in restricted cash. |  |  |
