Oh, no.  I hope this doesn't mean their US-based assembly plants will be outsourced again.  Damn it!  And just when I started to like their appliances, too.

 

Oh, please, don't let it be Haier.

Head of GE Said Sometime Ago That GE Was Going To

launderess's profile picture
Spin off "non-essential" parts of it's business to concentrate on core and revenue producing sectors.

GE Credit IIRC is also soon or has been placed on the selling block.

General Electric for whatever greatness it once held in appliances (including Hotpoint) IMHO hasn't really concentrated on that line in years. They make their money in aerospace (jet engines), locomotives and a whole host of other businesses.

Would be great if someone who really cares about domestic appliances picked up that GE division and tried to make something of it again. Think of all the patents and famous brands (again such as Hotpoint) GE holds.

GE threatened to sell off the appliance business some years ago - but then did a splendid job of restoring their appliance presence with innovative product - as well as restoring Appliance Park in the process.
I said it before and I'll say it again, if GE sells the appliance unit to some junky foreign manufacturer - it'll be the LAST GE appliance I will buy.

I see two things

either to Haier or LG/Samsung OR to an fill-in-the-blank capital group.

Whirlpool, I can't see that happening on anti-trust grounds.

Seems the investment in USA based production was but a smoke screen to gussy it up for sale to the right bidder. Neutron Jack did this to the small appliance division years ago, hence B&D coffemakers in our kitchens.

While I support business in general and only a profitable concern can hire people and generate wealth, when it comes to screwing around like this to make a bunch of pencil pushing accountants dance a jig over the stock price, I part company.

This is a perfect example (along with Wall Street in general) of WHY we just can't seem to make stuff here anymore. It has nothing to do with unions, wages, lack of plant capacity or anything (save for asinine goobermint regulations).

When a company is a slave to wall street, it generally screws over main street. When a CEO pay package is in large part dependent on the price per share, the trailing earnings, yadda yadda, a particular division can be indeed profitable but if it makes more money overall by being sold (and ultimately gutted), then so be it.

The outcome, well we've already witnessed it.
Exhibit A. Anheuser-Busch sold to Inbev. Cost cutting, layoffs, etc. And still a piss poor offering of beer.
Exhibit B. The disastrous Chrysler Daimler "merger of equals". Chryco parts division sold off to Metaldyne and others. Cost cuts, wage cuts, etc.
Exhibit C. Useless Airways and American. Talk about putting two losers together to make one bigger loser, this is it. Naturally upper management is well taken care of. The rest of us will have to suck wind.

Bottom line, the less competition in the marketplace means we consumers lose. Big time. Look at the cell phone business. The airlines are another example.

In other words, business as usual in America.

Ye Gods No!

Really hope this isn't Haier that is prospecting this purchase. And while the world of appliances hasn't caved in since Haier bought F&P, longterm I fear greatly for their innovative products. 

 

If they made good appliances, this wouldn't have to happen. Hopefully something good might come of it.

We all know GE is in bed with Electrolux to some degree. I wouldn't have a stroke if Electrolux came to the rescue.
Whirlpool probably cannot buy everybody.
It will be interesting to see how this pans out. Perhaps the appliance division could be run as it's own self-sustaining enterprise? Dunno.

GE To Sell Its Appliance Division

combo52's profile picture
This is not surprising as GE really has only had any real superiority in cooking appliances for a long time now. They might as well written off laundry appliances in 1994, and they refrigerators since 2001 have been plagued with problems also.

It will not be sold to Whirlpool or Electrolux, I would guess that Haier would be most likely with LG and Samsung coming in 2nd and 3rd.I would prefer to see Haier get it as it would keep more US workers in there current jobs in US plants. In retrospect I wish that WP had not bought MT and it had instead gone to Haier, as the accusation of MT has not helped WP be as competitive as they should be in the US market.

Geotherm

IIRC, GE got a nice chunk of change in tax breaks  when they agreed to mfr. the "Geotherm" water heater in the USA instead of outsourcing it.  When it looks and smells like corporate welfare it usually is.

Midea and Haier are likely suitors

gansky1's profile picture

 

LG and Samsung already have well established brands in the US and globally but some of the lesser known foreign companies will certainly get hot and bothered to grab some instant name recognition.  GE has been sourcing laundry products and many components from Little Swan/Midea (China) for a long time so a chance to grab GE's market share would be a huge win for a concern like them.

 

It certainly will be an interesting show to watch and the outcome will be even more so.

 

Watch carefully, the Kenmore brand name will be next on the block!

Kenmore

roto204's profile picture
Seeing as how brands are spread so thickly among single manufacturers--recalling the days of Chevrolet-Buick-Pontiac-Oldsmobile-Cadillac-Saturn-Saab-GMC-Hummer, it makes me wonder if we're going to see a winnowing effect, where the strongest brands persist as the more ancillary ones bow out. Whirlpool seems to be positioning Maytag more aggressively while other brands that never made much sense in their portfolio anyway (Jenn Air, Admiral) seem directionless by comparison.

Since Kenmore has worked so hard to divorce themselves from consistent suppliers and even consistent sales venues, I wonder how relevant they really are--any more than anyone would have clamored for the Signature marque after the demise of Ward's.

GE, on the other hand, seems to be pulling a Frigidaire--making some really great products you'd actually want to buy, just before fading into the sunset.

isn't the CEO of GE a job czar in the OB administration, and how many tax breaks has GE received from the Fed Govt? At least Whirlpool is in the Appliance business, and I don't care what anyone says, I think they make some good quality products for the money....I gave up on GE a while ago. Not one front loader was made in the US until recently, their plastic machines were and are ####....For washers and dryers ya gotta go with Alliance/Speed Queen, and for kitchen I have been with the Whirlpool family for some time now.\

It sort of is the writing on the wall. What I'm curious about will be the availability of parts going forward; GE parts availability is much better currently than any of the aforementioned suitors. Will Samsung/LG/Haier continue to support decades of parts for machines it didn't make?

I don't think that, despite GE's laudable efforts at keeping jobs here, most corporations anthropomorphize successfully into the embodiment of someone with integrity. Heck, some individuals can't even do that. :-)

It's all about the dollars, and I'm sure with a corporation as complex as GE, it's driven by equally complex motives.

Although GE has licensed its trademark before to others, part of me wonders--if this actually transacts--if the result will be similar to White-Westinghouse, wherein parts of the original company remained and wanted to keep their rights to the intellectual property with no confusion about who was whom ("W" and "Westinghouse" name and branding), so WCI had to come up with a separate set of branding for the appliance division they acquired.

I can't see Whirlpool wanting (or being allowed) to buy the entire GE appliances operation. I could see them trying to get the Hotpoint name, so that they could control both the US and European Hotpoint names...

Hotpoint

supersuds's profile picture
That's an interesting idea, dascot. Companies usually like to have international control of trademarks these days.

It's been several generations since the Hotpoint name was used in North America for anything but budget appliances. Whirlpool might be able to lock up the brand name for a song.

It's too bad because Hotpoint made some really excellent products pre-1970 -- at least they were a little different.

Supersuds, I pondered on it while thinking back about some car industry mergers and sell offs in the past 10-15 years or more. There's been some interesting cases when a company and a brand name have been sold separately (Bentley & Rolls Royce) or when a brand has been protected from sale (Rover by JLR/Ford after the sell off of business to SAIC in China), and it wouldn't surprise me if these guys did similar.

They could bring back Hotpoint to US using a) the heritage and b) their Euro market expertise as marketing tools...

Have as big a share of the market as they can get at this point, yes they would likely be blocked from buying GE, but they can get as big as they want if they do it by convincing appliance buyers to buy their appliances.

Whirlpool had a time getting the Maytag purchase approved by the DOJ.    Having just purchased a new GE range last year, I hate to see them go or change, but most definitely don't want to see the Icon of the electric light. The son of Edison Electric go out of the states in ownership.   

 

Though besides Whirlpool, is there any other American appliance Manufactures ?   Then there are the venture capitalist that would whittle it apart and sell off the pieces.  

 

NO, I feel if GE sells, it is doomed like their small appliance divison.  They used to have some darned good coffee makers.

No one wanted the Chinese firms expressing interest to get their mitts on such an iconic American brand. It really came down to the lessor of two evils as don't think there was that much interest.

Worse case would have been for one of those venture capital/turn around things to have gotten a hold of Maytag. They certainly would have gutted and or sold off, gutted and otherwise picked Maytag clean, leaving nothing left but the scraps.

I didn't want Maytag going to China, however, that is exactally where Hoover went when they were sold off in the acquisition.  

 

There were questions about anti-trust though, and that purchase took several months to be approved.  I just don't see a GE purchase by Whirlpool being approved.  BUT I hate the Idea of GE being sold off to a foreign company.

I think Maytag was pretty well gutted and whittled off long before Whirlpool acquired them.  Poor Maytag rotted from the inside out, a successful corporate raid.

And according to this morning's paper the deal is done. The GE Appliance division has been acquired by Electrolux for $3.3 billion. From the AP:

 

STOCKHOLM — Sweden's Electrolux is buying the appliances business of General Electric for $3.3 billion, boosting its presence on the North American market, the companies said Monday.

The acquisition is the largest ever for Stockholm-based Electrolux, ranked as the world's second biggest home appliance maker after U.S. rival Whirlpool.

Electrolux shares rose 7 percent to 200.50 kronor ($28.27) in early trading in Stockholm.

GE confirmed last month it was in talks to sell its appliances division — maker of the first electric toaster more than 100 years ago — as part of its effort to focus on selling more complex and profitable industrial equipment.

Electrolux CEO Keith McLoughlin said the move, which needs regulatory approval and is expected to be completed in 2015, "takes our company to a new level in terms of global reach and market coverage."

Electrolux plans a rights issue corresponding to about 25 percent of the purchase after the acquisition is complete.

Headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, GE Appliances' products include refrigerators, freezers, cooking products, washers and dryers and air conditioners. The division, which has 12,000 workers at nine factories, earned $381 million on $8.3 billion in sales last year, for a profit margin of 4.6 percent.

"GE Appliances' people, valuable home appliances brand, products, distribution, and service capabilities make it a perfect fit with Electrolux and its goal of accelerating growth in the U.S.," GE Chief Executive Jeff Immelt said in a joint statement from the two companies.

Other than its own brand, Electrolux sells under the Zanussi, AEG, Frigidaire and Eureka trademarks. In July it posted a second-quarter net loss of 92 million kronor ($13.5 million), citing large restructuring charges, but said demand in Europe and the United States was picking up.

Electrolux has more than 60,000 employees, including 10,000 in North America. Its North American operations are headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolin

GE.......we bring good things to life

Meh.............

If I were anyone in a GE factory, anywhere in the US, I'd be typing my resume right now.

I predict that GE "branded" appliances will be Electrolux clones. Part of that "synergy" savings of $300 million that the Electrolux corporate flak spoke of.

Look for more production to head south of the border, just like in Greenville Mich, when the old Gibson factory was shuttered. Naturally and as in the past, you and I will not see the benefit of cheap slave labor in the retail price of said product.

And of course, like the the airline business, we're faced with fewer consumer choices. Thus you basically have the Whirltag family of brands vs the Electrolux family of brands. Great huh?

Quite an example of that philosophy, and more than 20-years-later since it came out, and when he'd speculated our problems w/ the US vs. Foreign Markets we were selling to, at the time of his (Ahem!) Presidential election campaign...

'... whirltag v electrosux...'

Both have been dancing on the border of craphood within recent memory. Within same timespan, GE sells legacy parts for the original purchase price of the whole damn appliance. Like Elliot Gould said to his seer in Ocean's Twelve, "This? You couldn't see This?"

Blahblahblah, 'family livelihoods'. Cheese with that whine? Profits from SALES are so 20th century. GE makes its REAL money financing products starting at $1M, not $0.5K. So they're systematically deleting things that cost less than multiples of $1M. See Elliot Gould above. (And see the movie, it's quite clever.)

If this sounds bitter, it bloody well is. Dell did it to me in 2001. And you're gawdam right I resent the hell out of it. Under conventional planning principles I did everything right. No debts and savings targeted around $1M.

Now I live in a subsidized retirement poorhouse. It's no consolation there are 50 million others, some not fortunate enough to qualify for retirement. They're just hung out to dry, while I can 'afford' shelter/food/utilities. This ain't what I "pledged allegiance" to for 12yrs back in the 50s. If you catch my drift.

(Sorry, that rant leans toward Tub Turns. But I kept the expletives to things you can *sometimes* say on cable.)

arbilab , somewhere along the line the rules changed

Can't say exactly when but they did change nonetheless.

After all, why build a better mousetrap when you can do a leveraged buyout of the mousetrap company, sell off the bits and pieces and come out smelling like a rose?

So long as the basic business model includes some dribble about maximizing shareholder value (remember the CEO is a shareholder too), we certainly have not seen the last of things like this.

On a side note, anyone following the fast food workers protest and strikes? I find it interesting that some argue these are jobs for teenagers, or transition jobs or whatnot and thus should pay next to nothing. What these apologists for wall street seem to forget is thanks to the hollowing out of our industrial base, the outsourcing of tech and backoffice jobs, for a great many this IS the job to pay the bills. No longer is it something for sue and Tommy to do before they head off to college, for the 40 something displaced worker, that is all he has left.

Fast food workers-If they get the 15 buck an hour pay raise-would you want to pay for the NEW price of a burger ,fries ,and shake to cover the doubled labor costs---probably not.and I can see automation taking over some of those jobs-so--there will only be ONE 15 buck worker and manager at the place while it operates.And I bet some franchise owners will throw in the towel and close their operation.But a good side of it-the workers may no longer need state or Federal job assistance.But at the same time these pay raises could DEVISTATE the food industries.We will have to pay more?How many folks will want that?
