Electrolux Provides Update on U.S. Antidumping Review; Intends to Contest Decision

Electrolux will now appeal the DOC's decision. If the tariff rate is not significantly reduced as a result of the appeal process, it could lead to a one-time cost of up to USD 70 million. However, Electrolux believes that the company has a very strong legal case and, at this point, will not make any provision related to this potential cost.
