Eindhoven, the Netherlands – Signify (Euronext: LIGHT), the world leader in lighting, today announced the company's second quarter 2025 results.
"The momentum in our business continued through the second quarter, with comparable sales growth in both the Professional and Consumer businesses. The comparable sales decline of 1.4% reflects a topline growth of 0.8%, excluding the Conventional business. The return to growth in the Professional business was led by strong performance in North America and connected lighting sales. The Consumer business delivered its third consecutive quarter of growth, driven by robust demand for our connected home products. Connected and specialty lighting now represent over a third of our total sales, underscoring the importance and impact of our strategy.
Our gross margin remained strong, supported by disciplined price and cost management, as our teams continued to demonstrate their agility in navigating a volatile external environment. While we are encouraged by these developments, our adjusted EBITA performance was impacted by higher cost absorption in some parts of the business with stronger headwinds, and re-investments to drive growth.
With a robust plan in place to secure an operational performance that maintains our positive sales momentum and effectively manages cost through the second half, we confirm our guidance of low single digit growth excluding the Conventional business and a free cash flow of 7 - 8% of sales, and add a range to our EBITA margin guidance of 9.6 - 9.9%." said Željko Kosanović, CFO and interim CEO of Signify.

In the second quarter of the year, Signify continued to advance its Brighter Lives, Better World 2025 sustainability program which commits to doubling its positive impact on the environment and society.
Signify is ahead of schedule to achieve its 2025 target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 40% against the 2019 baseline - double the pace required by the Paris Agreement.
Circular revenues increased to 37%, up 1% over last quarter and surpassing the 2025 target of 32%. The main contribution was from serviceable luminaires in the professional business in all regions.
Brighter lives revenues remained at 33% and beyond the 2025 target of 32%. This includes strong contribution from tunable professional products and special lighting that support health and well-being.
The percentage of women in leadership positions remained at 27% this quarter, which is not aligned with our 2025 ambitions. Signify continues its actions to increase representation through focused hiring practices for diversity across all levels, and through retention and engagement actions to reduce attrition.
In the second quarter, Signify received several external recognitions for its leadership in Sustainability. The company has been named in the Corporate Knights Europe 50 most sustainable corporations and has been recognized in CDPs Supplier Engagement Assessment (SEA) A-list for its 2024 disclosure.
With a robust plan in place to secure an operational performance that maintains the positive sales momentum and effectively manages cost through the second half, Signify confirms its guidance low single digit comparable sales and a free cash flow generation of 7 - 8% of sales, and adds a range to its EBITA margin guidance of 9.6 - 9.9%.

Nominal sales decreased by 4.4% to EUR 1,418 million, including a negative currency effect of 3.0%, mainly related to the depreciation of the USD and CNY. Comparable sales declined by 1.4%. Excluding the Conventional business, comparable sales growth was 0.8%, reflecting the improving momentum in Signify's business.
The Adjusted gross margin increased by 10 bps to 40.4% driven by disciplined price and COGS management. Adjusted indirect costs as a percentage of sales increased by 10 bps to 33.6%, as fixed cost reductions were partly reinvested into marketing and selling expenses to fuel growth momentum.
Adjusted EBITA decreased by EUR 8 million to EUR 110 million. The Adjusted EBITA margin decreased by 10 bps to 7.8%, as gross margin expansion was offset by an a higher proportion of indirect costs.
Restructuring costs were EUR 10 million, acquisition-related charges included a benefit of EUR 1 million and incidental items had a negative impact of EUR 3 million. In Q2 2024, incidental items included a EUR 8 million benefit.
Net income decreased to EUR 57 million, primarily due to lower operating income and higher adjusted items.
The number of employees (FTE) decreased from 31,219 at the end of Q2 24 to 29,456 at the end of Q2 25. The yearon-year decrease is mostly related to the 2023 reorganization program and a reduction of factory personnel due to lower production volumes. In general, the number of FTEs is affected by fluctuations in volume and seasonality.

In the first half of 2025, Signify navigated a dynamic global market shaped by geopolitical uncertainty and emerging trade tariffs. Against this backdrop, the Professional business showed sequential improvements of its topline, led by a strong performance in the US and connected sales. The Consumer business delivered comparable sales growth across all regions, driven by sustained demand for connected lighting and robust online channels. The OEM business faced headwinds due to price pressure in the component business and reduced volumes from two key customers. The Conventional lighting segment continued its expected structural decline in line with the market. Signify's connected and specialty lighting offerings continued to gain share and now represent over one-third of its total business.
Nominal sales decreased by 2.9% to EUR 2,866 million, including a negative currency effect of 0.8%. Comparable sales decreased by 2.1%, as growth in the Consumer business was offset by lower sales in the Professional and OEM businesses as well as the declining Conventional business.
The adjusted gross margin decreased by 20 basis points to 40.6%, but remained at a very robust level reflecting the company's disciplined price and COGS management.
Adjusted indirect costs as a percentage of sales remained at 33.8%, as fixed cost reductions were partly reinvested into marketing and selling expenses to fuel growth momentum. In addition, Signify continued to face a higher cost absorption in some parts of the business that continued to face headwinds.
EBITA increased by EUR 2 million to EUR 198 million. Restructuring costs were EUR 21 million, acquisitionrelated charges were EUR 1 million, and incidental items had a negative impact of EUR 6 million. Excluding these items, the Adjusted EBITA was EUR 226 million, or 7.9% of sales. The Adjusted EBITA margin decreased by 20 basis points compared to the previous year.
Income from operations increased by EUR 6 million to EUR 168 million. Net income increased by EUR 17 million to EUR 124 million, driven by lower adjusted items and lower financial expenses.
Net cash from operating activities decreased by EUR 39 million to EUR 134 million. The decrease is mainly driven by a higher cash outflow from working capital offset by lower restructuring payout.
Nominal sales decreased by 1.5% to EUR 1,872 million, including a negative currency effect of 0.7%. Comparable sales declined by 0.8%, as a strong performance in North America and connected sales largely offset the continued softness in Europe. The business returned to growth in the second quarter.
Adjusted EBITA was EUR 136 million. The Adjusted EBITA margin decreased by 50 basis points to 7.3% of sales, as fixed cost reductions were offset by higher cost absorption in part of the business as well as reinvests in the business to support growth.
Nominal sales increased by 1.9% to EUR 607 million, including a negative currency effect of 1.0%. Comparable sales improved by 2.8%, reflecting the continued momentum in the consumer business in most markets. Signify continued to see strong demand for the Philips Hue brand.
Adjusted EBITA increased to EUR 56 million. The Adjusted EBITA margin increased by 40 basis points to 9.2%, largely driven by volume growth and fixed cost savings.
Nominal sales decreased by 12.4% to EUR 182 million, including a negative currency effect of 1.3%. Comparable sales declined by 11.1%, partly due to lower orders from two major customers. In addition, the business continued to face intense price competition for non-connected components.
Adjusted EBITA was EUR 12 million. The Adjusted EBITA margin decreased by 350 basis points to 6.4%, as the gross margin was impacted by negative pricing, as well as an under-absorption of fixed costs.
Nominal sales decreased by 25.8% to EUR 174 million, including a negative currency effect of 0.4%. Comparable sales decreased by 25.4%, reflecting the structural decline of the business.
Adjusted EBITA was 32 million.The Adjusted EBITA margin improved by 180 basis points to 18.5%, mainly driven by gross margin expansion on the back of disciplined price and cost management.

A reconciliation of a number of non-IFRS financial measures to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measures is contained in appendix B, Reconciliation of non-IFRS financial measures.
'Other' reflects the P&L of Signify's venture businesses, in addition to centrally incurred costs not assigned to individual businesses, predominantly those related to exploratory research initiatives and audit activities. Nominal sales increased to EUR 31 million (H1 2024: EUR 12 million) mainly driven by the growth of Signify's ventures. Adjusted EBITA was EUR -9 million, compared with EUR -20 million in the same period last year.
With a robust plan in place to secure an operational performance that maintains the positive sales momentum and effectively manages cost through the second half, Signify confirms its guidance low single digit comparable sales and a free cash flow generation of 7 - 8% of sales, and adds a range to its EBITA margin guidance of 9.6 - 9.9%.
