Philips reports Q3 comparable sales growth of 2% to EUR 5.8 billion and an improvement in operational results to EUR 570 million

Amsterdam, October 26, 2015

Third-quarter highlights

  • Comparable sales up 2%, driven by North America, Asia Pacific and Central & Eastern Europe
  • Currency-comparable order intake up 2%, driven by 6% growth in North America
  • EBITA, excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges and other items, amounted to EUR 570 million, or 9.8% of sales, compared to 9.1% of sales in Q3 2014
  • EBITA totaled EUR 429 million, or 7.4% of sales, compared to a loss of EUR 62 million in Q3 2014
  • Net income amounted to EUR 324 million, compared to a net loss of EUR 103 million in Q3 2014
  • Free cash flow of EUR 58 million, compared to EUR 155 million in Q3 2014
  • Philips provides update on Lumileds transaction
  • Philips Lighting separation process on track

Frans van Houten, CEO:

"Philips delivered improved results for the third quarter of 2015, confirming that our operational performance continues to strengthen, despite deteriorating macro-economic conditions in a number of markets, most notably in China.

Healthcare comparable sales and order intake increased, driven by North America. Operational results also improved year-on-year, despite the impact of China and foreign exchange headwinds. Consumer Lifestyle again delivered a strong performance, with a significant product mix improvement driven by high growth in Health & Wellness and Personal Care. Lighting continued its trend of yearon-year performance improvement, driven by strong growth in our LED businesses, while we continue to actively manage the conventional lighting market decline.

For full-year 2015, we continue to expect modest comparable sales growth and an improvement of our operational performance."

Accelerate! and Separation Update

"Our Accelerate! program continues to drive operational improvements across the organization. In Healthcare, for example, this resulted in reduced manufacturing cycle times and inventory in our Image-Guided Therapy facility in the Netherlands. In Consumer Lifestyle, we simplified the order fulfillment process in Spain, resulting in improved customer service. In Lighting, a new go-to-market model and customized offerings in Indonesia enhanced our business-to-government sales capabilities, resulting in street-lighting orders from five major cities."

Overhead cost savings amounted to EUR 33 million in the third quarter. The Design for Excellence (DfX) program generated EUR 107 million of incremental procurement savings in the quarter. The End2End improvement program achieved EUR 63 million in productivity gains.

Philips is on schedule to complete the separation of the Lighting business in the first half of 2016. As previously stated, Philips is reviewing all strategic options for Philips Lighting, including an initial public offering and a private sale. The company now expects the related separation costs to come in at the lower end of EUR 200-300 million for 2015 and remain within that range in 2016.

Update on sale of majority stake in Lumileds to GO Scale Capital

In the course of seeking regulatory approvals regarding the sale of an 80.1% interest in Lumileds to a consortium led by GO Scale Capital, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) has expressed certain unforeseen concerns. Philips and GO Scale Capital will continue to engage with CFIUS and will take all reasonable steps to address its concerns, but given these, the closing of the transaction is uncertain.

Q3 2015 Financial and Operational Overview

Healthcare

Healthcare comparable sales grew 3% year-on-year and currency-comparable order intake was up 2%. Excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges and other items, the EBITA margin increased by 30 basis points to 12.3%, driven largely by cost productivity. This was partly offset by negative currency impact, higher investments for growth initiatives, and increases in Quality & Regulatory spend.

"We are encouraged by continued sales growth and the positive order intake across the majority of our markets. Our focus on delivering meaningful innovations that enhance patient care and improve efficiencies continues to pay off, for example with the introduction of HeartModel, an ultrasound tool with anatomical intelligence, designed to enhance diagnosis and planning in cardiology.

Consumer Lifestyle

Consumer Lifestyle comparable sales increased by 6% year-on-year, with double-digit growth at Health & Wellness and Personal Care. The EBITA margin, excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges and other items, increased by 190 basis points to 12.5% yearon-year.

"We delivered significant EBITA gains in Consumer Lifestyle, as well as strong growth. This resulted in market share expansion across a number of product categories and geographies. For instance in Oral Healthcare, innovations including the Philips Sonicare DiamondClean Amethyst and Philips Sonicare AirFloss Ultra saw high-double-digit growth."

Lighting

Lighting continued its operational improvement, with the EBITA margin, excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges and other items, increasing by 40 basis points to 9.5% year-on-year. LED lighting comparable sales grew 24% and LED margins improved. LED sales now represent 44% of total Lighting sales, compared to 36% in Q3 2014. In line with industry trends, conventional lamps sales declined by 15%, resulting in an overall comparable sales decrease of 3% year-on-year.

"We are pleased with another quarter of strong performance from our LED business, which now represents close to half of Lighting sales. We continue to introduce LED innovations to customers. For example, Philips will outfit 32 Accenture offices with more than 140,000 LED-based products in India. The upgrade will enable significant energy savings and create a more pleasant work environment. Simultaneously, we will continue to proactively manage the conventional lighting market decline, allowing us to deliver improvements to Lighting EBITA margins."

Innovation, Group & Services

Comparable sales increased by 15%, driven by IP Royalties and very strong growth in Philips' emerging businesses such as Digital Pathology and Photonics. EBITA was a net cost of EUR 139 million, compared to a net cost of EUR 151 million in the third quarter of 2014.

"We are driving leadership positions in emerging business areas such as digital pathology. In Europe and Asia Pacific, leading health institutions such as Germany's largest telemedicine platform and Singapore General Hospital digitize their pathology workflows with Philips' IntelliSite Pathology Solutions to enhance disease diagnosis, underpinning our leadership in this field."

Conference call and audio webcast

Frans van Houten, CEO, and Abhijit Bhattacharya, CFO, will host a conference call for investors and analysts at 10:00 am CET on October 26, 2015 to discuss the results. A live audio webcast of the conference call will be available on the Philips Investor Relations website.

Net income

  • Net income was EUR 324 million, compared to a loss of EUR 103 million in Q3 2014. The increase was mainly due to charges related to the Masimo provision in Q3 2014 and improved operational performance in Q3 2015.
  • EBITA amounted to EUR 429 million, or 7.4% of sales, compared to a loss of EUR 62 million in Q3 2014. Restructuring and acquisition-related charges amounted to EUR 51 million, largely relating to the acquisition of Volcano, compared to EUR 78 million in Q3 2014. EBITA also included charges of EUR 31 million related to a legal matter and EUR 59 million of charges relating to the separation of the Lighting business. EBITA in Q3 2014 included charges of EUR 366 million related to the provision for the Masimo litigation, EUR 49 million of mainly inventory writedowns related to the Cleveland facility, and EUR 43 million of provisions for various legal matters.
  • EBITA, excluding restructuring and acquisitionrelated charges and other items, was EUR 570 million, or 9.8% of sales, compared to EUR 474 million, or 9.1% of sales, in Q3 2014. Currency effects had an impact on EBITA margin of -1.6 percentage points of sales.
  • Results from investments in associates amounted to EUR 2 million, compared to EUR 39 million in Q3 2014. The decrease was mainly due to a EUR 32 million fairvalue gain related to Philips' stake in Corindus Vascular Robotics in Q3 2014.
  • Net income from discontinued operations was EUR 61 million higher year-on-year, mainly due to higher results from Lumileds and Automotive in Q3 2015 and the European Commission's Smartcard fine in Q3 2014.
  • Income tax charges amounted to EUR 8 million, compared to a tax credit of EUR 50 million in Q3 2014, largely due to higher taxable earnings, partly offset by the release of tax provisions in Q3 2015.

  • LED lighting sales grew 24% year-on-year and now represent 44% of total Lighting sales, compared to 36% in Q3 2014. Conventional lighting sales declined 20% year-on-year, mainly due to a 15% decline in lamps sales, and now represent 56% of total Lighting sales, compared to 64% in Q3 2014.

EBITA excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges and other items

in millions of EUR unless otherwise stated

  • EBITA improved to EUR 159 million, or 8.7% of sales, compared to EUR 126 million, or 7.4% of sales, in Q3 2014. Restructuring and acquisition-related charges amounted to EUR 15 million, compared to EUR 30 million in Q3 2014.
  • EBITA, excluding restructuring and acquisitionrelated charges, improved to EUR 174 million, or 9.5% of sales, compared to EUR 156 million, or 9.1% of sales, in Q3 2014. The increase was mainly driven by improved cost productivity and gains on the sale of assets.
  • Net operating capital, excluding a currency translation effect of EUR 320 million, decreased by EUR 1,436 million year-on-year. The decrease was mainly due to the reclassification of the combined businesses of Lumileds and Automotive as assets held for sale in Q4 2014.
  • Inventories as a percentage of sales* decreased by 0.8 percentage points year-on-year.
  • Compared to Q3 2014, the number of employees decreased by 3,269, reflecting rationalization of the industrial footprint. Compared to Q2 2015, the number of employees decreased by 954, mainly due to a seasonal decrease at production sites.

Miscellaneous

▪ Restructuring and acquisition-related charges in Q4 2015 are expected to total approximately EUR 50 million.

*Inventories as a % of sales excludes inventories and sales related to acquisitions, divestments and discontinued operations

Additional information on the combined businesses of Lumileds and Automotive

The combined businesses of Lumileds and Automotive are reported as discontinued operations in the Consolidated statements of income and cash flows. As a result, Lumileds and Automotive sales and EBITA are no longer included in the Lighting and Group results of continuing operations. The applicable assets and liabilities of the combined businesses are reported under Assets and Liabilities classified as held for sale in the Condensed consolidated balance sheets as per November 2014.

In Q3 2015, the net income of discontinued operations attributable to the combined businesses of Lumileds and Automotive increased to EUR 86 million from EUR 38 million in Q3 2014, mainly due to the adjustment of depreciation and amortization charges as required by IFRS accounting rules. Net income also included a EUR 10 million tax benefit largely relating to non-taxable income.

Overhead and other indirect costs of Philips that were previously allocated to Lumileds and Automotive and were not affected by the transfer to Discontinued operations have been allocated to Lighting and IG&S (Former net costs allocated to Lighting and IG&S).

Business highlights

  • Philips' Digital Pathology Solutions continues to gain traction in the market. In Europe and Asia Pacific, leading health institutions such as Germany's largest telemedicine platform and Singapore General Hospital digitize their pathology workflows with Philips' IntelliSite Pathology Solutions to enhance disease diagnoses, while in the US, Genomic Health will utilize Philips' solutions in their operations to optimize their genomic testing process.
  • In the 2015 Dow Jones Sustainability Index, Philips became Leader in the Industrial Conglomerates category, with top scores for its Best in Class performance on Climate Strategy, Product Stewardship and Supply Chain Management.
  • Philips signed agreements on October 1, 2015 to transfer the US pension plan obligations for a large group of former employees to three insurance companies. As a result, Philips will reduce its definedbenefit obligation in the US by approximately EUR 1 billion to approximately EUR 2.7 billion. The company's total defined-benefit obligation will be reduced to approximately EUR 8.5 billion.

Financial performance

  • Sales decreased from EUR 141 million in Q3 2014 to EUR 133 million. Higher revenue from IP Royalties and very strong growth in Philips' emerging businesses such as Digital Pathology and Photonics were offset by lower sales in the OEM remote controls business following its divestment.
  • EBITA amounted to a net cost of EUR 139 million, compared to a net cost of EUR 151 million in Q3 2014. EBITA included EUR 59 million of charges related to the separation of the Lighting business. Restructuring charges amounted to a net release of EUR 4 million, compared to a cost of EUR 41 million in Q3 2014. EBITA in Q3 2014 also included EUR 43 million of provisions related to various legal matters.
  • Excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges and other items, EBITA was a net cost of EUR 84 million, compared to a net cost of EUR 67 million in Q3 2014. The net cost increase was mainly due to investments in emerging business areas and cyber security, partly offset by a release of environmental provisions.
  • Net operating capital, excluding a currency translation effect of EUR 153 million, decreased by EUR 213 million year-on-year, mainly due to a decrease in working capital.
  • Compared to Q3 2014, the number of employees increased by 337, primarily driven by growth at the Philips Innovation Campus in Bangalore. The number of employees increased by 135 compared to Q2 2015.

EBITA excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges and other items in millions of EUR

Miscellaneous

  • Restructuring charges in Q4 2015 are expected to total approximately EUR 20 million.
  • Charges related to the separation of the Lighting business in Q4 2015 are estimated at approximately EUR 80 million.
  • As announced on October 1, 2015, Philips expects to make additional pension contributions of approximately USD 315 million (approximately EUR 280 million) in cash, of which approximately USD 125 million (approximately EUR 110 million) will be made in the fourth quarter of 2015 and approximately USD 190 million (approximately EUR 170 million) in the first quarter of 2016. As a result, Philips expects to recognize a non-cash pension settlement charge in the fourth quarter of 2015 that is currently estimated at approximately USD 45 million (approximately EUR 40 million) before tax and will be reported within EBITA.

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 the strategy, estimates of sales growth, future EBITA, future developments in Philips' organic business and the completion of acquisitions and divestments. 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 Philips' strategy and the ability to realize the benefits of this strategy, the 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, the ability to identify and complete successful acquisitions, including Volcano, and to integrate those acquisitions into the business, the ability to successfully exit certain businesses or restructure the 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 the Annual Report 2014 and the "Risk and uncertainties" section in the semi-annual financial report for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

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. Non-GAAP financial measures do not have standardized meaning under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. 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 the Annual Report 2014.

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 the Annual Report 2014. Independent valuations may have been obtained to support management's determination of fair values.

Presentation

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 2014, unless otherwise stated. The presentation of certain prior-year information has been reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation.

In 2014, we announced plans to establish two standalone companies focused on the HealthTech and Lighting opportunities. The proposed separation of the Lighting business impacts all businesses and markets as well as all supporting functions and all assets and liabilities of the Group. Philips expects to complete the separation of the Lighting business in the first half of 2016. We expect to continue reporting in the existing structure until the changes in the way we allocate resources and analyze performance in the new structure have been completed.
