Frans van Houten, CEO of Royal Philips Electronics:

"We are pleased with the continued improvement of our operational performance in the fourth quarter. Through our Accelerate! program, we are making good progress in transforming Philips into an agile and entrepreneurial company, driving improved and sustainable results. My deep appreciation goes to our employees for their hard work and to our customers for their continued trust in Philips.

Our growth initiatives are working, as we increased sales despite the challenging economic environment in western economies. Our operational results improved across all sectors, as a result of increased sales, overhead cost reductions, and gross margin expansion. We also exceeded our inventory reduction goals as we stepped up working capital management. Underlying performance improved, as EBITA excluding restructuring and other charges increased by 50% to EUR 875 million, which is 12.2% of sales.

Net income in the quarter was significantly impacted by charges such as the fine imposed by the European Commission, which we intend to appeal, as well as restructuring costs. The restructuring will fundamentally lower our cost base and improve our financial performance in the coming years.

Today we announced that we have signed an agreement with Funai to transfer our Philips Audio, Video, Multimedia and Accessories businesses. This transaction will leverage Philips' strong brand, strength in innovation, and leadership position in these businesses, with Funai's strong presence in America and Japan, and its supply and manufacturing expertise. I am confident the deal will give this business a great future, with continuity for our customers. We have taken an important step in transforming Philips into the leading technology company in health and well-being.

While we have made significant progress in 2012, there is still much more to be done to unlock and deliver the full potential of Philips. Going forward, by executing on our Accelerate! program, we will continue to relentlessly drive operational excellence and invest in innovation and sales development to deliver profitability and growth.

The challenging economic environment in 2012, notably in Europe and United States, has impacted our order book, and hence we expect our sales in 2013 to start slow and pick up in the second half of the year. We remain confident in our ability to further improve our operational and financial performance, enabling us to achieve our 2013 financial targets".

Q4 financials: Good growth at Healthcare, Lighting and growth businesses in Consumer Lifestyle. Operating margins excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges improved across all sectors.

Healthcare comparable sales grew by 4%, led by high-single-digit growth at Home Healthcare Systems, mid-single-digit growth at Customer Services and low-single-digit growth at both Imaging Systems and Patient Care & Clinical Informatics. In growth geographies, comparable sales increased by 19%. Currency-comparable order intake increased by 4% year-on-year. EBITA margin excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges increased year-on-year by 3.0 percentage points to 18.8%.

Consumer Lifestyle comparable sales increased by 2%, driven by double-digit growth in the combined growth businesses, i.e. Personal Care, Health & Wellness and Domestic Appliances. Sales increases were partly offset by a decline at Lifestyle Entertainment. EBITA margin excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges increased yearon-year by 3.4 percentage points to 11.7%. All businesses in the sector improved underlying profitability.

Lighting comparable sales increased by 4%, with growth in all businesses, notably double-digit growth at Lumileds and mid-single-digit growth at Consumer Luminaires and Automotive. LED-based sales grew by 43% and now account for 25% of total Lighting sales. Both Lumileds and Consumer Luminaires returned to profitability in the quarter. EBITA margin excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges increased year-on-year by 4.9 percentage points to 8.6%. Higher restructuring charges impacted the reported EBITA for the quarter.

The fourth-quarter results were impacted by a fine of EUR 509 million from the European Commission related to the Cathode-Ray Tubes (CRT) industry. Philips divested its CRT activities in 2001 to LPD, a joint venture with LG Electronics which operated as an independent company and was not consolidated in Philips' accounts. Philips intends to appeal the decision. Restructuring and acquisition-related charges of EUR 358 million, and EUR 154 million of other charges mainly related to legal matters and the loss on the sale of industrial assets, also impacted the results for the quarter.

Philips has completed 73% of the EUR 2 billion share buy-back program since the start of the program in July 2011.

Making good progress with Accelerate!

Accelerate! is our multi-year program that is fundamentally transforming Philips and unlocking its full potential by creating an agile and entrepreneurial company. We made significant progress in 2012, executing on the initiatives we launched in 2011 by improving our time to market for new innovations, making our products and services more locally relevant in markets around the world, redirecting investments and resources to those businesses and geographies with the best value-creation opportunities, and reducing cost and complexity across the organization. We have aligned our incentive structure with our performance targets, and are creating a growth and high performance culture. During the fourth quarter we made further progress on our initiatives to improve our end-to-end customer value chain; these projects are now covering about 20% of group revenues. On executed projects, this drove benefits such as 40% reduction in time to market of key new product introductions, higher growth, lower cost, as well as higher capital turns. We reduced inventories by 2 percentage points at the end of 2012.

Notably, we exceeded our overhead cost-reduction goals for the year. Incremental savings in the fourth quarter amounted to EUR 165 million, bringing cumulative savings in 2012 to EUR 471 million.

Financial income and expenses

• Financial income and expenses in Q4 2012 amounted to a net expense of EUR 19 million, or EUR 52 million lower expense compared to Q4 2011. Included in Other in Q4 2012 was a EUR 46 million gain related to a change in estimate on the valuation of long-term hedge contracts. Also included in Other for both Q4 2012 and Q4 2011 are minor valuation adjustments on Other non-current financial assets.

Cash balance

  • The group cash balance increased during Q4 2012 to EUR 3,834 million, largely due to a free cash inflow of EUR 899 million. This was partly offset by the use of EUR 191 million in treasury share transactions, primarily for our share buy-back program, as well as a EUR 72 million outflow related to discontinued operations.
  • In Q4 2011, the cash balance increased to EUR 3,147 million, mainly as a result of EUR 966 million free cash inflow, a EUR 178 million change in debt and EUR 139 million cash inflow from discontinued operations. These inflows were partly offset by EUR 243 million cash outflow mainly related to the acquisition of Povos Electric Appliance (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. (Povos) and EUR 208 million of treasury share transactionsrelated to the share buy-back program.

Cash flows from operating activities

• Operating activities resulted in a cash inflow of EUR 1,209 million, compared to an inflow of EUR 1,189 million in Q4 2011. The higher cash inflow in Q4 2012 is mainly a result of lower working capital requirements and higher cash earnings.

  • Net operating capital, excluding a currency impact of EUR 214 million, decreased by EUR 228 million to EUR 8.0 billion. The decrease was largely driven by lower working capital needs as a result of inventory productivity improvement, as well as an increase in provisions related to the restructuring charges taken in Q4 2012.

The lighting can also be programmed to celebrate specific moments in time, such as the recent Election Day or the Super Bowl.
  • Philips introduced Hue, a revolutionary LED lighting system, which can be controlled wirelessly through a smart device. With Philips Hue, currently available exclusively through Apple retail stores, endless possibilities can be created to personalize light at home.

  • Philips partnered with EGAT (Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand) to deliver 1,607 GreenVision Flexi LED lights to light up four major dams. EGAT extended the project with an additional 10,000 units to be delivered later in 2013.

Financial performance

  • Comparable sales were 4% higher year-on-year, with sales increases in all businesses, notably double-digit sales growth at Lumileds and mid-single-digit sales growth at Consumer Luminaires and Automotive.
  • From a regional perspective, comparable sales (excluding the OEM Lumileds sales) in mature geographies were flat, with Western Europe growing by 4% and North America declining by 4%. Sales in growth geographies increased by 8% compared to Q4 2011.
  • Comparable LED-based sales were 43% higher year-onyear, and now represent 25% of total Lighting sales.
  • Restructuring and acquisition-related charges of EUR 185 million (Q4 2011: EUR 36 million), as well as a loss on the sale of industrial assets of EUR 22 million, resulted in an EBITA loss of EUR 13 million, compared to EUR 41 million profit in Q4 2011.
  • Excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges and the loss on the sale of industrial assets, EBITA was EUR 194 million, or 8.6% of sales, compared to EUR 77 million, or 3.7% of sales, in Q4 2011. This year-onyear EBITA improvement was driven by higher operating earnings across all businesses, notably Lumileds and Consumer Luminaires, which were both profitable in Q4 2012, as well as Light Sources & Electronics.

  • Net operating capital, excluding a currency impact of EUR 156 million, decreased by EUR 174 million. The decrease was largely driven by an increase in provisions related to restructuring and lower inventories, partly offset by the consolidation of Indal. Inventories as a percentage of sales improved by 1.9 percentage points year-on-year.

  • Compared to Q4 2011, the total number of employees decreased by 2,944. Excluding the increase of 909 employees due to the acquisition of Indal, the number of employees decreased by 3,853. This decrease was driven by overhead cost reductions and the rationalization of our industrial footprint.

EBITA

Business highlights

  • Philips won 39 prizes in the 2013 iF design awards, one of the most influential and internationally renowned design competitions in the world.
  • As a world first, Philips and Dutch mental healthcare institute GGzE have developed a new Ambient Experience-based care concept. The partners are now researching its full effect on stress and anxiety for clients in GGzE, by allowing doctors and clients to choose dynamic light, sound and projections.

Financial performance

  • Sales decreased from EUR 129 million in Q4 2011 to EUR 123 million in Q4 2012.
  • EBITA amounted to a net cost of EUR 548 million, compared to a net cost of EUR 77 million in Q4 2011.
  • EBITA, excluding restructuring charges of EUR 19 million (Q4 2011: EUR 25 million), was a EUR 477 million higher net cost than in Q4 2011. This was mainly attributable to the EUR 313 million impact of the European Commission fine related to alleged violation of competition rules in the Cathode-Ray Tubes (CRT) industry and EUR 132 million of provisions related to various legal matters.
  • Service Units and Other EBITA was negatively impacted in Q4 2011 by EUR 25 million of net costs formerly reported as part of the Television business in Consumer Lifestyle (Q4 2012: EUR 3 million).
  • Compared to Q4 2011, the number of employees decreased by 982, primarily due to restructuring activities in the Service Units, particularly in IT and Financial Operations.
  • Net operating capital decreased by EUR 626 million, mainly due to an increase in payables and provisions related to legal matters.

Miscellaneous

  • Excluding the EUR 313 million impact of the CRT fine, provisions related to various legal matters of EUR 132 million, the EUR 37 million gain on the sale of the High Tech Campus in Eindhoven, and a EUR 25 million gain of prior service cost related to a medical benefit retiree plan, IG&S EBITA in 2012 amounted to a net cost of EUR 288 million.
  • For 2013 we expect a reduction in restructuring expenses of around EUR 30 million, a decrease in IP royalty income of around EUR 15 million, an increase in pension costs, mainly related to the change in IAS 19, of around EUR 100 million, and a reduction in stranded costs of EUR 23 million.

• Restructuring and acquisition-related charges in Q1 2013 are expected to total approximately EUR 5 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 differ 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 differ materially from the plans, goals and expectations set forth in such forward-looking statements. For a discussion of factors that could cause future results to differ from such forward-looking statements, see the Risk management chapter included in our Annual Report 2011.

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's 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 such 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 2011.

Use of fair-value measurements

In presenting the Philips Group's 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 do not exist, we estimated the fair values using appropriate valuation models, and when observable market data are not available, we used unobservable inputs. They 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 2011 financial statements. Independent valuations may have been obtained to support management's determination of fair values.

All amounts in millions of euros unless otherwise stated; data included are unaudited. Financial reporting is in accordance with IFRS, unless otherwise stated.

Prior-period financials have been revised for adjusted warranty provisions in the Lighting sector; more information is available on page 32.

Performance of the Group

  • Sales for the full year 2012 amounted to EUR 24.8 billion, a 10% nominal increase year-on-year. Excluding favorable currency effects and portfolio changes, comparable sales were 4% above 2011. Comparable sales growth was driven by a 6% increase at Healthcare, with solid growth in all businesses, and 4% growth at Lighting, mainly from Automotive and Light Sources & Electronics. Consumer Lifestyle's comparable sales growth was 2% relative to the prior year, with doubledigit growth at Health & Wellness, Domestic Appliances and Personal Care tempered by a sales decline at Lifestyle Entertainment.
  • Growth geographies achieved 10% comparable growth, while mature geographies grew by 1% as a result of the overall macro-economic developments and the continued weakness of the Western European markets, particularly in Southern Europe. Growth geographies accounted for 35% of total sales, compared to 33% in 2011.
  • EBITA excluding restructuring, acquisition-related and other charges amounted to EUR 2,366 million, or 9.5% of sales, compared to EUR 1,822 million, or 8.1% of sales, in 2011. EBITA amounted to EUR 1,502 million, or 6.1% of sales, compared to EUR 1,680 million in 2011. EBITA was impacted by the EUR 313 million fine from the European Commission related to the Cathode-Ray Tubes (CRT) industry, EUR 580 million of restructuring and acquisition-related charges, and a total of EUR 188 million for provisions related to various legal matters, losses on the sale of industrial assets and a gain on prior service costs related to a medical retiree plan. EBITA also included EUR 217 million of gains on the sale of assets, mainly for the Senseo and High Tech Campus transactions. 2011 included EUR 163 million of restructuring and acquisition-related charges and EUR 21 million of gains related to a pension plan change.
  • EBIT amounted to EUR 1,030 million, or 4.2% of sales, compared to a EUR 269 million loss, or -1.2% of sales, in 2011. Excluding goodwill impairment charges of EUR 1,355 million in 2011, significant EBIT improvement was seen at Consumer Lifestyle and Healthcare, while Lighting was impacted by charges related to restructuring activities.

  • Financial income and expenses amounted to a net expense of EUR 246 million, EUR 6 million higher yearon-year. EUR 31 million higherinterest expense in 2012 was more than offset by a EUR 46 million gain related to a change in estimate on the valuation of long-term hedge contracts. 2011 included a favorable impact of EUR 51 million related to the sale of the remaining sharesin TCL, which was partly offset by EUR 34 million of impairment charges, in the same year, mainly related to the shareholdings in TPV.

  • Income taxes amounted to EUR 308 million, compared to EUR 283 million in 2011. The year-on-year increase was largely attributable to higher taxable earnings. The tax burden in 2012 corresponded to an effective income tax rate of 39.3%, compared to negative 55.6% in 2011, which was attributable to goodwill impairment losses of EUR 1,355 million that are largely non-taxdeductible. Excluding the non-tax-deductible goodwill impairment losses in 2011, the effective income tax rate increased, mainly due to a non-deductible charge of EUR 509 million for the CRT fine from the European Commission.
  • Net income for the year amounted to EUR 231 million, compared to a loss of EUR 1,291 million in 2011. The loss in 2011 included goodwill impairment of EUR 1,355 million and a EUR 515 million loss related to the discontinued operations of the Television business. Excluding the goodwill impairment in 2011 and the EUR 509 million of charges related to the CRT fine in 2012, income from continuing operations was EUR 192 million higher year-on-year. Higher income was driven by better earnings, particularly at Consumer Lifestyle and Healthcare, but tempered by significant restructuring charges, mainly at Lighting.
  • In 2012 we generated EUR 2,198 million of cash flow from operating activities, which was EUR 1,430 million higher than in 2011. The increase was mainly a result of lower working capital requirements and higher cash earnings.
  • In July 2011 we launched a EUR 2 billion share buyback program aimed at improving the efficiency of our balance sheet. By the end of the year we had completed 73% of this program.

Proposed distribution

Proposed distribution to shareholders

A proposal will be submitted to the General Meeting of Shareholders to declare a distribution of EUR 0.75 per common share (up to EUR 685 million), in cash or shares at the option of the shareholder, against net income and retained earnings.
