Frans van Houten, CEO:

"Our first-quarter financial results reflect a challenging start to the year. Significant currency impact, market headwinds in, among others, China and Russia, and the business impact of the voluntary suspension at our healthcare production facility in Cleveland resulted in flat comparable sales growth and a decline in EBITA as a percentage of sales of 130 basis points. We recorded a lower level of profitability at Healthcare, whereas Lighting and Consumer Lifestyle continued to deliver a year-on-year operational margin improvement.

At Lighting, LED-based sales grew by 37%, and we are encouraged by the positive reception given by our customers to our broad range of new connected lighting solutions demonstrated at the Light + Building trade fair in Germany. Consumer Lifestyle grew 7%, with a particularly strong performance at FloorCare andAirPurifiers.At Healthcare, we see encouraging developments in our order book and increasing opportunities for multi-year deals.

Our multi-year transformation program Accelerate! continues to show strong traction, driven by a solid innovation pipeline, investments in future growth and a company-wide focus on improved operational and financial performance. We are also taking comprehensive measures to raise the efficacy of our quality management system to Philips Excellence standards in close collaboration with industry experts. Our overhead cost reduction program and our Design for Excellence program are on track, thus helping to partly oset the negative currency impact.

Looking ahead, 2014 will be a challenging year, but we remain very confident of achieving our 2016 mid-term financial targets."

Financial income and expenses

Cash balance

The Audio, Video, Multimedia and Accessories (AVM&A) business is reported as discontinued operations in the Consolidated statements of income and Consolidated statements of cash flows. As a result, AVM&A sales and EBITA are no longer included in the Consumer Lifestyle and Group results of continuing operations. The applicable assets and liabilities of this business are reported under Assets and Liabilities classified as held for sale in the Consolidated balance sheet.

The AVM&A business operates as a stand-alone entity named WOOX Innovations. Philips is actively discussing the sale of the business with potential buyers.

The net income of discontinued operations attributable to the AVM&A business decreased from EUR 10 million in Q1 2013 to EUR 1 million in Q1 2014, due to lower operational results at WOOX Innovations, partly oset by lower income taxes.

EBITA in Q1 2014 included a net release of restructuring charges of EUR 2 million (Q1 2013: EUR 0 million).

Forward-looking statements

Forward-looking statements

This document and the related oral presentation, including responses to questions following the presentation, contain certain forward-looking statements with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and business of Philips and certain of the plans and objectives of Philips with respect to these items. Examples of forward-looking statements include statements made about our strategy, estimates of sales growth, future EBITA and future developments in our organic business. By their nature, these statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and circumstances and there are many factors that could cause actual results and developments to dier materially from those expressed or implied by these statements.

These factors include but are not limited to domestic and global economic and business conditions, developments within the euro zone, the successful implementation of our strategy and our ability to realize the benefits of this strategy, our ability to develop and market new products, changes in legislation, legal claims, changes in exchange and interest rates, changes in tax rates, pension costs and actuarial assumptions, raw materials and employee costs, our ability to identify and complete successful acquisitions and to integrate those acquisitions into our business, our ability to successfully exit certain businesses or restructure our operations, the rate of technological changes, political, economic and other developments in countries where Philips operates, industry consolidation and competition. As a result, Philips' actual future results may dier materially from the plans, goals and expectations set forth in such forwardlooking statements. For a discussion of factors that could cause future results to dier from such forwardlooking statements, see the Risk management chapter included in our Annual Report 2013.

Third-party market share data

Statements regarding market share, including those regarding Philips' competitive position, contained in this document are based on outside sources such as research institutes, industry and dealer panels in combination with management estimates. Where information is not yet available to Philips, those statements may also be based on estimates and projections prepared by outside sources or management. Rankings are based on sales unless otherwise stated.

Use of non-GAAP information

In presenting and discussing the Philips Group financial position, operating results and cash flows, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed in isolation as alternatives to the equivalent IFRS measures and should be used in conjunction with the most directly comparable IFRS measures. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures is contained in this document. Further information on non-GAAP measures can be found in our Annual Report 2013.

Use of fair-value measurements

In presenting the Philips Group financial position, fair values are used for the measurement of various items in accordance with the applicable accounting standards. These fair values are based on market prices, where available, and are obtained from sources that are deemed to be reliable. Readers are cautioned that these values are subject to changes over time and are only valid at the balance sheet date. When quoted prices or observable market data are not readily available, fair values are estimated using appropriate valuation models and unobservable inputs. Such fair value estimates require management to make significant assumptions with respect to future developments, which are inherently uncertain and may therefore deviate from actual developments. Critical assumptions used are disclosed in our Annual Report 2013. Independent valuations may have been obtained to support management's determination of fair values.

All amounts are in millions of euros unless otherwise stated. All reported data is unaudited. Financial reporting is in accordance with the accounting policies as stated in the Annual Report 2013, unless otherwise stated.

Prior-period financials have been restated for two voluntary accounting policy changes applied as of January 1, 2014. The first voluntary accounting policy change relates to a reclassification of cost by function in the income statement. Company-wide overhead and indirect Business function costs will be brought more in line with the actual activities performed in our markets. This change has no net eect on Income from operations. The second voluntary accounting policy change relates to a change in the presentation in the cash flow statement. Up and until 2013 the cash flows

related to interest, tax and pensions were presented in a table separate from the primary consolidated statement of cash flows. The presentation change results in the separate presentation of the interest and tax cash flows in cash flow from operating activities. The pension cash flows are separately presented as part of the pension disclosures. The presentation change has no impact on the net cash flows from operating activities nor the total net cash balance as these cash flows previously used to be part of other aggregated sub lines of the primary consolidated statement of cash flows. An overview of the revised full-year 2012 and 2013 figures per quarter will be made available on the Philips website, in the Investor Relations section.
