Quarterly report

Q3 2010, Royal Philips Electronics

Philips reports third-quarter net income of EUR 524 million, EBITA of EUR 648 million and sales of EUR 6.2 billion

  • Net income of EUR 524 million, including a gain of EUR 154 million on the sale of NXP shares
  • EBITA of EUR 648 million, or 10.5% of sales, up from 6.1% last year
  • Sales up 10% nominally and 1% comparably year-on-year
  • Emerging markets sales up 19% nominally and 7% comparably year-on-year
  • Healthcare order intake growth of 7%, including 20% growth in emerging markets
  • Growth at Lighting and Healthcare tempered by Consumer Lifestyle

"The third quarter was another solid quarter for Philips, resulting in net income of EUR 524 million and adjusted EBITA of 10.6%. This has led to an adjusted EBITA in the first nine months of 2010 of 10.1%, exceeding our target for the year and putting us in an excellent position to deliver on one of the main targets of our Vision 2010 strategic plan.

In a still fragile economic environment, with weak consumer markets in the developed economies, we posted sales growth of 10% nominal and 1% on a comparable basis.

Looking at the performance of our three sectors, both Healthcare and Lighting delivered a good quarter in terms of profitability as well as growth. Consumer Lifestyle improved profitability despite weak demand in some of its markets, with strong sales at Health & Wellness, Personal Care and Domestic Appliances weighed down by lower sales in the rest of the sector.

We also continued on our growth path in emerging markets, with 19% nominal and 7% comparable sales growth. This means that we now generate more than one-third of our sales in these markets.

Our continued progress in the third quarter confirmed that we are on the right track to become a leading company in health and well-being as outlined in our strategic plan, Vision 2015."

Forward-looking statements

This document contains 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, in particular the sections "Looking ahead" and "Outlook". 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, 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 2009 and the "Risk and uncertainties" section in our semi-annual financial report for the six months ended July 4, 2010.

Third-party market share data

Statements regarding market share, including those regarding Philips' competitive position, contained in this document are based on outside sourcessuch asresearch institutes, industry and dealer panelsin 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 2009.

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 or observable market data do not exist, we estimated the fair values using appropriate valuation models and 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 2009 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. This document comprises regulated information within the meaning of the Dutch Financial Markets Supervision Act 'Wet op het Financieel Toezicht'.

Net income

  • Net income was EUR 348 million higher than in Q3 2009, driven by substantially higher earnings in the operating sectors, notably Lighting and Healthcare, as well as higher financial income compared to last year.
  • Financial income and expenses were mainly impacted by the EUR 154 million gain on the sale of the remaining stake in NXP to the Philips UK pension fund.
  • The decline in results relating to investments in associates was largely attributable to last year's EUR 30 million gain on the partial reversal of the TPV impairment loss recognized in December 2008.
  • Despite higher earnings, income tax expenses were largely at par with Q3 2009, mainly due to higher nontaxable income, reflecting this year's EUR 154 million gain on the sale of NXP shares, and the release of tax provisions.

Sales per sector

  • Sales amounted to EUR 6,159 million, an increase of 10% on a nominal basis and 1% comparably. Currency effects had a 8% favorable impact on sales. Excluding Television, Group comparable sales growth was 4%.
  • Healthcare sales grew by 14% on a nominal basis. On a comparable basis, sales grew 4%, driven by high singledigit growth in all businesses, except for a modest yearon-year decline at Imaging Systems.
  • Consumer Lifestyle nominal sales grew by 1%. Comparable sales declined by 5% year-on-year, as solid growth at Health & Wellness, Personal Care and Domestic Appliances was more than offset by sales declines in the other businesses. Excluding Television, Consumer Lifestyle comparable sales declined by 1%.
  • Lighting nominal sales growth was 16%. On a comparable basis, sales grew by 7%, driven by growth in all businesses, notably double-digit growth at Lighting Electronics and 47% growth at Lumileds.

Sales per market cluster

  • Comparable salesin the mature markets declined by 1% compared to Q3 2009, mainly due to a sales decline at Consumer Lifestyle. Healthcare mature markets grew by 3%, largely driven by Western Europe.
  • Led by China, India, Russia and the ASEAN countries, the emerging markets showed high single-digit growth, predominantly driven by Lighting and Healthcare.

Earnings

• EBITA amounted to EUR 648 million, or 10.5% of sales, an increase of EUR 304 million compared to Q3 2009, driven by improved earnings across all sectors. Restructuring and acquisition-related charges of EUR 40 million were recorded, compared with EUR 125 million last year.

In Q3 2009, EBITA was also favorably impacted by a EUR 87 million release of a provision forretiree medical benefits, while Q3 2010 was favorably impacted by a EUR 36 million pension plan change. Excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges and the pension plan change, EBITA amounted to EUR 652 million, or 10.6% of sales.

  • Healthcare EBITA increased by EUR 107 million yearon-year, with EUR 34 million lower restructuring and acquisition-related charges. Improvements in earnings were seen across all businesses.
  • Consumer Lifestyle EBITA improved by EUR 20 million year-on-year, as higher earnings at Domestic Appliances and Health & Wellness were only partly offset by lower earnings at Licenses and Television. Restructuring and acquisition-related charges were EUR 6 million lower than in Q3 2009.
  • Lighting EBITA increased by EUR 137 million year-onyear, driven by higher sales and improved gross margin, largely attributable to Lamps, Lighting Electronics, Automotive and Lumileds. Restructuring and acquisition-related charges were EUR 25 million lower than in Q3 2009.
  • GM&S EBITA improved by EUR 40 million year-on-year to a profit of EUR 1 million, driven by higher license income, lower indirect costs and a EUR 36 million gain on a pension plan change.

1) Capital expenditures on property, plant and equipment only

Cash balance

  • In Q3 2010, the Group cash balance declined by EUR 108 million to EUR 4.4 billion, mainly due to EUR 200 million free cash outflow, partly offset by EUR 165 million of proceeds from redemption of the TPV convertible bond.
  • In Q3 2009, the cash balance increased by EUR 145 million to EUR 3.7 billion, driven by free cash inflow of EUR 353 million, partly offset by EUR 172 million in payments for acquisitions, mainly Saeco.
  • The transaction related to the transfer of the remaining NXP equity stake to the Philips UK pension fund was cash-neutral.

Cash flows from operating activities

• Operating activities led to a cash inflow of EUR 8 million, compared to an inflow of EUR 470 million in Q3 2009. The year-on-year decline was attributable to higher working capital requirements, mainly inventories, partly offset by higher cash earnings.

Gross capital expenditure

• Gross capital expenditures on property, plant and equipment were EUR 51 million higherthan in Q3 2009, mainly due to higher investment in equipment at Lighting.

Inventories

as a % of moving annual total sales

Inventories

  • Inventories as a % of sales were 1.9 percentage points higher than in Q3 2009, representing a EUR 739 million year-on-year value increase, EUR 230 million of which was due to currency effects.
  • Inventories as a % of sales increased by 0.5 percentage points compared to Q2 2010. Inventory value at the end of Q3 2010 increased to EUR 4.2 billion, largely due to Consumer Lifestyle.

Net debt and group equity

  • At the end of Q3 2010, Philips had a net debt position of EUR 80 million, compared to EUR 621 million at the end of Q3 2009. During the quarter, the net debt position decreased by EUR 226 million, mainly due to currency translation effects on debt.
  • Group equity in the quarter remained unchanged at EUR 15.8 billion, as the increase in net income was offset by currency translation effects.

Employees

  • During Q3 2010, the number of employees increased by 1,034, primarily due to increases at Healthcare and Consumer Lifestyle caused by temporary personnel.
  • Compared to Q3 2009, the number of employees declined by 601, as increases at Lighting and Healthcare were more than offset by declines at Consumer Lifestyle and GM&S.

Business highlights

  • Philips announced the acquisition of Discus Holdings Inc., the leading manufacturer of professional tooth whitening products. The acquisition broadens Philips' oral healthcare portfolio and provides a strong foundation for growth in cosmetic dentistry.
  • Philips unveiled its most advanced premium electric shaver to date, the SensoTouch 3D, and was identified as the most recommended shaving brand in China in a survey of almost 10,000 Chinese consumers.

Double-digit growth was visible at both Health & Wellness and Personal Care, while Domestic Appliances achieved mid-single-digit growth. This was more than offset by lower sales in other businesses. Consumer Lifestyle excluding Television grew by 7% nominally.
  • Comparable sales at Television were 12% below Q3 2009, due to different seasonality in 2010 and higher stock in trade following soccer's World Cup.
  • EBITA amounted to EUR 149 million, or 7.1% of sales, which was EUR 20 million higher than in Q3 2009, largely driven by sales growth in higher-margin businesses and lower restructuring charges.

Looking ahead

  • Philips expects to complete the implementation of its brand license agreement with display solution provider TPV to license Philips' TV activitiesin China in Q4 2010. The agreement will strengthen the presence of the Philips brand in the Chinese TV market.
  • Following a different seasonality in 2010, with a strong year-on-year increase of license revenues in the first half of the year, license revenue in Q4 is expected to be relatively low.
  • Consumer Lifestyle expects to incur restructuring and acquisition-related charges of around EUR 20 million in Q4 2010.

  • LED sales grew 68% compared to Q3 2009, representing 14% of total Lighting sales. Sales at Lumileds grew by 47% year-on-year.
  • EBITA, excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges of EUR 17 million (Q3 2009: EUR 42 million), amounted to EUR 233 million, or 12.2% of sales. The substantial year-on-year EBITA improvement was largely driven by strong sales growth, a favorable product mix and ongoing cost management.
  • Net operating capital increased by EUR 228 million to EUR 5,610 million. Excluding currency impact, net operating capital decreased compared to Q3 2009.

Looking ahead

• Restructuring and acquisition-related charges in Q4 2010 are expected to total around EUR 50 million.

Business highlights

Financial performance

  • Sales increased from EUR 81 million in Q3 2009 to EUR 87 million, largely driven by increased license revenues.
  • EBITA amounted to EUR 1 million, a EUR 40 million improvement year-on-year.
  • EBITA was favorably impacted by a EUR 36 million pension plan change and a EUR 6 million provision release. In Q3 2009, EBITA included a EUR 87 million favorable impact of a release of a provision for retiree medical benefits, partially offset by EUR 14 million restructuring and acquisition-related charges.
  • Excluding the above items, the EBITA improvement was driven by higherlicense income, improved performance at Assembléon and lower overhead and R&D project costs.

Outlook

Given the uncertain economic climate and fragile consumer confidence in some of our markets, we take a cautious view on revenue development in Q4 2010. We expect it to be a seasonally strong quarter as our growth businesses and growth geographies continue to deliver, albeit counterbalanced by year-end channel inventory management and the continued soft construction market.

We will continue to drive growth initiatives and operational improvements to further exceed the targeted EBITA, adjusted for restructuring and acquisition-related charges, of 10% for the full-year 2010.

  • Financial expenses included a EUR 154 million gain on the sale of NXP shares, whereas last year included a gain of EUR 69 million on the sale of LG Display shares, EUR 12 million dividend income from LG Display, a EUR 48 millon gain on the sale of a 17% stake in Pace, and NXP impairment of EUR 48 million.
  • Net income was EUR 823 million higher than in the first nine months of 2009, mainly driven by higher sector earnings, partly offset by higher income tax expenses. Last year's income taxes included the recognition of a deferred tax asset for Lumileds and a number of tax settlements.
  • Cash flows from operating activities amounted to EUR 598 million, EUR 12 million lower than in the first nine months of 2009. Higher earnings were partially offset by higher working capital outflow, in particular from inventories.
  • Net operating capital increased by EUR 2.8 billion compared to the level at the end of Q3 2009, mainly due to higher working capital requirements (EUR 1.7 billion).
