Frans van Houten, CEO

"I am pleased with the 6% comparable sales growth in the second quarter, with all businesses contributing. We also recorded strong 8% comparable order intake growth, driven by the continued demand for our innovative product portfolio across the Diagnosis & Treatment businesses. Adjusted EBITA margin for the Group improved by 60 basis points, mainly driven by the performance improvement of the Diagnosis & Treatment businesses, despite adverse currency and tariff impacts.

We continue to expect our performance momentum to further improve in the second half of the year, supported by sales growth and our productivity programs. We maintain our overall targets of 4-6% comparable sales growth and an Adjusted EBITA margin improvement of 100 basis points on average per year for the 2017-2020 period."

Reporting segment performance

The Diagnosis & Treatment businesses recorded 6% comparable sales growth, led by double-digit growth in Image-Guided Therapy. Comparable order intake showed a double-digit increase, driven by double-digit growth in China and Western Europe. The Adjusted EBITA margin increased to 12.3%, reflecting sales growth and productivity, partly offset by the impact of tariffs.

Comparable sales in the Connected Care businesses increased 6%, with mid-single-digit growth in Monitoring & Analytics and Sleep & Respiratory Care. Comparable order intake showed a mid-single-digit decline, reflecting the uneven order intake dynamics. The Adjusted EBITA margin decreased to 12.1%, mainly due to tariffs, adverse currency impact and mix.

The Personal Health businesses delivered comparable sales growth of 5%, with high-single-digit growth in Oral Healthcare and midsingle-digit growth in Personal Care and Domestic Appliances. The Adjusted EBITA margin decreased to 13.4%, as the operational leverage from sales growth was offset by investments in advertising.

Philips' ongoing focus on innovation and strategic partnerships resulted in the following highlights in the quarter:

• Philips signed a 10-year agreement with Centre Hospitalier Régional Universitaire de Nancy in France to implement Philips' IntelliSpace Enterprise Imaging Solution. The collaboration will enable the hospital, which provides 1.2 million consultation visits and inpatient stays each year, to streamline complex medical image data management across its departments.

  • Philips announced a 10-year agreement with Rutherford Diagnostics to deliver advanced imaging solutions to its five new diagnostic centers across the UK. As the technology partner, Philips will provide advanced imaging systems and software, as well as managed technology services, including training and consultancy, and will establish a joint innovation program.
  • Strengthening its leadership in cardiac ultrasound, Philips extended the advanced automation capabilities on its EPIQ CVx cardiology ultrasound platform, making exams faster and easier to conduct while improving clinician productivity.
  • Philips' Image-Guided Therapy Devices business delivered double-digit growth, driven by all major coronary and peripheral vascular product families. The company presented the three-year results from two major Stellarex clinical studies involving approximately 600 patients, demonstrating that its Stellarex drug-coated balloon (DCB) is the only low-dose DCB with a significant treatment effect and high safety profile through three years. Both studies showed no difference in mortality compared with the current standard of care.
  • Philips teamed up with US insurance company Humana to improve care for at-risk, high-cost populations. The pilot program will support independent living for high-acuity patients with congestive heart failure by providing 24/7 access to care. Philips' remote monitoring capabilities will allow care managers to deliver timely interventions for these patients.
  • Philips' solutions to treat obstructive sleep apnea, a condition that affects more than 100 million patients globally, continue to garner healthy demand, supported by the continued strong reception for DreamStation GO's expanded portable therapy options.
  • Broadening its leading portfolio of power toothbrushes, Philips launched Sonicare DailyClean, an entry-level proposition to address lower price segments, and Sonicare ExpertClean, featuring premium brush heads, connectivity and design, in the US.
  • Following the successful roll-out of the Philips Shaver Series 9000 Prestige in Q4 2018, Philips has gained significant market share in the premium shaver market, especially in China, Germany and the US. Consumers appreciate the shaver, with global Rating & Review scores of 4.7 stars.

Cost savings

In the second quarter of 2019, cost savings totalled EUR 146 million, reflecting procurement savings of EUR 48 million and savings from overhead and other productivity programs of EUR 98 million.

Capital allocation

In the second quarter of 2019, Philips completed its EUR 1.5 billion share buyback program for capital reduction purposes that was announced on June 28, 2017. As of the end of the second quarter of 2019, Philips has completed 21.1% of its new EUR 1.5 billion share buyback program for capital reduction purposes that was announced on January 29, 2019. Further details can be found here.

In the quarter, Philips completed the cancellation of 30 million shares that were acquired as part of the share buyback programs mentioned above.

Additionally, Philips successfully placed a EUR 750 million 0.500% Green Innovation Bond due 2026.

Regulatory update

Philips continues to fulfill its obligations under the Consent Decree 1). The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reverted to Philips with follow-up requests, on which the company is currently acting.

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 today to discuss the results. A live audio webcast of the conference call will be available on the Philips Investor Relations website and can be accessed here.

Under the Consent Decree, Philips continues to export its range of AED devices and manufacture and distribute its H1/ OnSite/Home automated external defibrillator (AED) model in the US. The company also continues to service the AEDs and provide consumables and the relevant accessories. 1)

Forward-looking statements and other important information

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 Adjusted EBITA; future restructuring, acquisition-related and other costs; 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: global economic and business conditions; political instability, including developments within the European Union such as Brexit, with adverse impact on financial markets; 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; increased healthcare regulation; changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates; changes in foreign currency import or export controls; future changes in tax rates and regulations, including trade tariffs; pension costs and actuarial assumptions; changes in raw materials prices; changes in employee costs; the ability to identify and successfully complete acquisitions, and to integrate those acquisitions into the business, the ability to successfully exit certain businesses or restructure the operations; the rate of technological changes; cyber-attacks, breaches of cybersecurity; political, economic and other developments in countries where Philips operates; industry consolidation and competition; and the state of international capital markets as they may affect the timing and nature of the disposal by Philips of its remaining interests in Signify. 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 2018.

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-IFRS information

In presenting and discussing the Philips Group's financial position, operating results and cash flows, management uses certain non-IFRS financial measures. These non-IFRS financial measures should not be viewed in isolation as alternatives to the equivalent IFRS measure and should be used in conjunction with the most directly comparable IFRS measures. Non-IFRS 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-IFRS measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures is contained in this document. Further information on non-IFRS measures can be found in the Annual Report 2018.

Use of fair value information

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 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 2018. In certain cases independent valuations are obtained to support management's determination of fair values.

Presentation

All amounts are in millions of euros unless otherwise stated. Due to rounding, amounts may not add up precisely to totals provided. All reported data is unaudited. Financial reporting is in accordance with the accounting policies as stated in the Annual Report 2018, except for IFRS 16 lease accounting, which is implemented per January 1, 2019.

As announced on January 10, 2019, Philips has realigned the composition of its reporting segments effective as of January 1, 2019. The most notable changes are the shifts of the Sleep & Respiratory Care business from the Personal Health segment to the renamed Connected Care segment and most of the Healthcare Informatics business from the renamed Connected Care segment to the Diagnosis & Treatment segment. Accordingly, the comparative figures have been restated. The restatement has been published on the Philips Investor Relations website and can be accessed here.

Notes to the unaudited semi-annual condensed consolidated financial statements

Significant accounting policies

The significant accounting policies applied in these semiannual condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the Annual Report 2018, except for the adoption of new standards effective January 1, 2019 and segment reporting. The company has not earlyadopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in euros, which is the presentation currency. Due to rounding, amounts may not add up precisely to totals provided.

New and amended standards adopted by the company

The company applies, for the first time, IFRS 16 Leases. The impact of the adoption of this new standard and the new accounting policy is disclosed below. Other amendments and interpretations apply for the first time in 2019, but do not have a material impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the company.

Impact on the financial statements

IFRS 16 supersedes IAS 17 Leases, IFRIC 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease, SIC-15 Operating Leases-Incentives and SIC-27 Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the Legal Form of a Lease. The standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases and requires lessees to account for all leases under a single onbalance-sheet model.

Lessor accounting under IFRS 16 is substantially unchanged compared to IAS 17. Lessors will continue to classify leases as either operating or finance leases using similar principles as in IAS 17. Therefore, IFRS 16 did not have an impact for leases where the company is the lessor.

The company adopted IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective method of adoption with the date of initial application of January 1, 2019.

Nature of the effect of adoption of IFRS 16

The company has lease contracts for various items of real estate, vehicles and other equipment. Before the adoption of IFRS 16, the company classified each of its leases (as lessee) at the inception date as either a finance lease or an operating lease. A lease was classified as a finance lease if it transferred substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased asset to the company otherwise it was classified as an operating lease. Finance leases were capitalized at the commencement of the lease at the inception date fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments were apportioned between interest (recognized as finance costs) and reduction of the lease liability. In an operating lease, the leased item was not capitalized and the lease payments were recognized as rent expense in the statement of income on a straight-line basis over the lease

term. Any prepaid rent and accrued rent were recognized under Other current assets and Accrued liabilities respectively. Upon adoption of IFRS 16, the company applied a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The standard provides specific transition requirements and practical expedients which have been applied by the company.

Leases previously classified as finance leases

The company did not change the initial carrying amounts of recognized assets and liabilities at the date of initial application for leases previously classified as finance leases (i.e., the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities equal the lease assets and liabilities recognized under IAS 17). The requirements of IFRS 16 have been applied to these leases from January 1, 2019.

Leases previously accounted for as operating leases

The company recognized right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for those leases previously classified as operating leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The right-of-use assets for most leases were recognized based on the amount equal to the lease liabilities, adjusted for any related prepaid and accrued lease payments previously recognized . For certain property leases, the rightof-use assets were recognized based on the carrying amount as if the standard had always been applied, apart from the use of incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial application. Lease liabilities were recognized based on the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial application.

Practical expedients applied

In applying IFRS 16 for the first time, the company has used the following practical expedients permitted by the standard:

  • Reliance on previous assessments on whether leases are onerous
  • Accounting for operating leases with a remaining lease term of less than 12 months as at January 1, 2019 as shortterm leases
  • Exclusion of initial direct costs for the measurement of the right-of-use asset at the date of initial application
  • Use of hindsight in determining the lease term where the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease
  • Exclusion of low-value leases (i.e. individually less than EUR 5,000)
  • Not separating lease from non-lease components for car leases.

The company has also elected not to reassess whether a contract is, or contains, a lease at the date of initial application. Instead, for contracts entered into before the transition date, the company relied on its assessment made applying IAS 17 and IFRIC 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease.

Adjustments recognized on adoption of IFRS 16

On adoption of IFRS 16, the company recognized lease liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as 'operating leases' under the principles of IAS 17 Leases. These liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee's incremental borrowing rate as of January 1, 2019. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities on January 1, 2019 was 2.4%.

In addition, the existing finance lease assets and liabilities determined as per IAS 17 with a carrying value of approximately EUR 330 million each as at December 31, 2018 have been reclassified and added to the right-of-use asset and lease liability determined as per IFRS 16 on January 1, 2019.

The change in accounting policy affected the following items on the balance sheet on January 1, 2019:

The costs incurred to date following the IFRS 16 adoption consisted of depreciation amounting to EUR 75 million, interest charges amounting to EUR 10 million and EUR 27 million for short-term and low value leases, compared to EUR 109 million of operating lease expenses booked in the first half of 2018. In the first half of 2019 operating cash flows increased and financing cash flows decreased by EUR 73 million compared to previous year as the repayment of the principal portion of the lease liabilities is now classified as cash flows from financing activities, while previously the operating lease payments were classified as cash flows from operating activities.

Accounting policy on lease accounting

The company leases various items of real estate, vehicles and other equipment. Rental contracts are typically made for fixed periods but may have extension or termination options.

Until the 2018 financial year, leases of property, plant and equipment were classified as either finance or operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) were charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

From January 1, 2019, leases are recognized as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the company. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and the finance cost. The finance cost is charged to the statement of income over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The right-of-use asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis.

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease payments:

  • fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable
  • variable lease payments that are based on an index or a rate
  • amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees
  • the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option
  • payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising that option

The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be determined, the lessee's incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date is used, which is based on an assessment of interest rates the company would have to pay to borrow funds, including the consideration of factors such as the nature of the asset and location, collateral, market terms and conditions, as applicable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made.

Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance charges. The interest element of the finance cost is charged to the consolidated statements of income over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset.

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:

  • the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability
  • any lease payments made at or before the
  • commencement date less any lease incentives received
  • any initial direct costs
  • restoration costs.

The right-of-use assets are subsequently accounted for using principles for property, plant and equipment. Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized on a straight-line basis as an expense in the statement of income. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. Low-value assets comprise IT-equipment and small items of office furniture considered to be of low value (i.e. less than EUR 5,000).

The company determines the lease term as the noncancellable term of the lease, together with any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised, or any periods covered by an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercised.

The company applies judgement in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the option to renew. That is, it considers all relevant factors that create an economic incentive for it to exercise the renewal.

Estimates

The preparation of the semi-annual condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting principles and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

In preparing these semi-annual condensed financial statements, the significant estimates and judgements made by management in applying the company's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were

the same as those applied to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2018. The impact on estimates related to the adoption of IFRS 16 was immaterial.

Risk management

The Annual Report 2018 describes certain risk categories and risks (including risk appetite) which could have a material adverse effect on Philips' financial position and results. Those categories and risks remain valid and should be read in conjunction with this semi-annual report.

Looking ahead to the second half of 2019, financial markets are expected to continue to be highly volatile due to political and macroeconomic issues (such as, but not limited to, trade tariffs and sanctions) in most major regions such as Europe (including Brexit), United States, China, Russia, Middle East & Turkey and Latin America. Such conditions in financial markets may adversely affect the timing of and proceeds from the ongoing divestment of Signify.

Also, Philips operates in a highly regulated product safety and quality environment. Philips products and facilities are subject to regulation and ongoing inspections by various government agencies, including, in particular, the FDA (US) and comparable non-US agencies. Philips is undertaking considerable efforts to improve quality and management systems in all of its operations. The remediation work in this area will continue to affect the company's results.

Additional risks not known to Philips, or currently believed not to be material, could later turn out to have a material impact on Philips' business, objectives, revenues, income, assets, liquidity or capital resources.

Seasonality

Under normal economic conditions, the Group's sales are impacted by seasonal fluctuations, typically resulting in higher revenues and earnings in the second half-year. At Diagnosis & Treatment businesses and Connected Care businesses, sales are generally higher in the second half-year, largely due to the timing of new product availability and customers attempting to spend their annual budgeted allowances before the end of the year. At Personal Health businesses, sales are generally higher in the second half-year due to the holiday sales and events. The segment Other is generally not materially affected by seasonality, however the timing of intellectual property transactions causes variation over the year.

As required by IFRS 8, Operating Segments are Diagnosis & Treatment businesses, Connected Care businesses and Personal Health businesses, each being responsible for the management of its business worldwide. On January 10, 2019 Philips announced that it has realigned the composition of its reporting segments effective as of January 1, 2019. The most notable changes are the shifts of the Sleep & Respiratory Care business from the Personal Health segment to the renamed Connected Care segment and most of the Healthcare Informatics business from the renamed Connected Care segment to the Diagnosis & Treatment segment. Accordingly, the prior-period comparative figures have been restated.

Acquisitions and divestments

Acquisitions

Philips completed one acquisition during the six months ended June 30, 2019. The acquisition involved a net cash outflow of EUR 38 million, a contingent consideration of EUR 11 million (recorded in Long-term provisions), and resulted in an increase of Goodwill and Other intangible assets of EUR 36 million and EUR 20 million respectively. These amounts are subject to final purchase price allocation.

On March 7, 2019, Philips announced that it has signed an agreement to acquire the Health Care Information Systems business of Carestream Health Inc. The completion of the transaction is on track. Philips expects to complete the acquisition in the second half of 2019, subject to customary closing conditions, including the relevant regulatory approvals.

Divestments

Philips completed two divestments in the first six months of 2019. The divestments involved an aggregated net cash inflow of EUR 123 million.

Property, plant and equipment

The increase in Property, plant and equipment mainly relates to the implementation of IFRS 16. The right-of-use assets taken on the balance sheet amounted to EUR 760 million. For more details please refer to Significant accounting policies.

Other financial assets

Other non-current financial assets

In the first half of 2019, Other non-current financial assets decreased by EUR 30 million from EUR 360 million as of December 31, 2018 to EUR 330 million as of June 30, 2019, mainly reflecting fair value adjustments through profit and loss (FVTP&L) and other comprehensive income (FVTOCI). This included a value adjustment through OCI related to the retained investment in the combined Lumileds and Automotive businesses, which has a remaining value as of June 30, 2019 of EUR nil million (December 31, 2018: EUR 112 million).

Other current financial assets

In the first half of 2019, Other current financial assets increased by EUR 40 million from EUR 436 million as of December 31, 2018 to EUR 476 million as of June 30, 2019, mainly reflecting a fair value increase through OCI of the Signify shareholding, partially offset by further sales of shares. Philips sold 2.93 million shares for a total consideration of EUR 72 million, of which EUR 7 million was receivable as of June 30, 2019.

Cathode-Ray Tubes (CRT)

In the CRT-related civil antitrust litigation pending outside the United States, Philips has reached two more settlements in principle. The settlements reached had no material impact on our results in the first half year of 2019. For some of the remaining CRT-related civil antitrust actions, Philips recorded a provision based on interactions with the plaintiffs in these cases.

Compliance matters

The Public Prosecution Service in Rio de Janeiro and representatives from the Brazilian antitrust authority CADE are conducting an investigation into tender irregularities in the medical device industry in Brazil. Philips is one of a number of companies involved in the investigation. The company has been conducting an internal investigation into the matter and is discussing the results with the Brazilian authorities. In connection with this matter, the company has also received inquiries from the US Securities and Exchange Commission ('SEC') and US Department of Justice ('DoJ'). The company also volunteered to provide the SEC and DoJ with information about its compliance efforts in China.

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities

The estimated fair value of financial instruments has been determined by the company using available market information and appropriate valuation methods. The estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that will ultimately be realized by the company upon maturity or disposal. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

The following table shows the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy. It does not include fair value information for financial assets and financial liabilities not measured at fair value if the carrying amount is a reasonable approximation of fair value.

The retained investment in privately held Luminescence, formerly the combined businesses of Lumileds and Automotive, is recognized at fair value through OCI and classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The value has decreased to nil (December 31, 2018: EUR 112 million), following difficult trading conditions that lowered earnings assumptions in the valuation model.

Philips Group

As part of the EPD acquisition, Philips may be required to pay additional consideration to former shareholders if specified future events occur or conditions are met, such as the achievement of certain regulatory milestones or the achievement of certain commercial milestones. The fair value of this contingent consideration liability was determined using a probability-weighted approach to estimate the achievement of future regulatory and commercial milestones and discount rates ranging from 3 to 4 percent. The discount rates used reflect the inherent risk related to achieving the respective milestones. The fair value measurement is based on

management's estimates and assumptions and hence classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. A sensitivity analysis of the EPD contingent consideration liability at June 30, 2019 shows that if the probabilities of success for every milestone increased by 10 percentage points, with all other variables (including foreign exchange rates) held constant, the fair value of the liability would increase by approximately 3%. Similarly, a decrease in the probabilities of success for every milestone by 10 percentage points would reduce the fair value by approximately 4%. If the discount rates were to increase instantaneously by 100 basis points from the assumption at June 30, 2019, with all other variables (including foreign exchange rates) held constant, the fair value of the liability would decrease by approximately 2%, while a decrease in the discount rates of 100 basis points would increase the fair value by approximately 2%.

The table below shows the reconciliation from the opening balance to the closing balance for Level 3 fair value measurements.
