Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Stockholders and Board of Directors
Whirlpool Corporation
We have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Whirlpool Corporation
as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity (not presented separately here)
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012, and in our report dated February 19, 2013, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those
consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying financial statements (presented on pages 32 through 35) is fairly stated, in all
material respects from which it has been derived.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Whirlpool Corporation’s internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of
the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 19, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
