Excellent results – guidance raised again

"Siemens is consistently pursuing its goal of accelerated high-value growth. In the third quarter, once again we delivered – with strong and profitable growth in all businesses," said Roland Busch, President and CEO of Siemens AG. "We're successfully supporting our customers in their transformation through digitalization, automation and sustainability. And we're mastering a challenging environment – for example in our supply chains. A big thank you to the global Siemens team for another strong performance," said Roland Busch, President and Chief Executive Officer of Siemens AG.

"We are continuing the very positive business development of the first half of the year and are once again delivering strong results despite the continuing challenging environment. The strong performance of our focused technology company was demonstrated in the third quarter by double-digit revenue growth, increased profitability and another strong Free cash flow. Consequently, we are again raising our outlook for fiscal 2021," added Ralf P. Thomas, Chief Financial Officer of Siemens AG.

  • Orders increased 47% to €20.5 billion, driven by double-digit growth in all industrial businesses, and revenue rose 24%, to €16.1 billion, with double-digit growth in a majority of industrial businesses; the book-to-bill ratio was 1.27
  • Orders surged 44% on a comparable basis, excluding currency translation and portfolio effects, and revenue climbed 21%
  • Adjusted EBITA Industrial Businesses was €2.3 billion, a 29% increase on strong performances in all industrial businesses, resulting in Adjusted EBITA margin Industrial Businesses of 15.3%
  • Net income and basic earnings per share (EPS) rose sharply to €1.5 billion and €1.68, respectively, due to higher Adjusted EBITA Industrial Businesses and a substantial positive swing within discontinued operations
  • Again excellent Free cash flow from continuing and discontinued operations, reaching €2.3 billion for the quarter

  • Increased growth opportunities in many key markets for Siemens compared to the challenging prior-year quarter in which volume and income of Siemens' businesses were noticeably affected by the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19). Ongoing supply chain risks associated primarily with electronics components and raw materials, which were successfully mitigated during the quarter
  • Very strong order intake, driven by double-digit growth in all industrial businesses and reporting regions; volume from large orders almost doubled compared to the prior-year period and included a €2.8 billion contract win for Mobility in the U.S.
  • Substantial revenue growth on increases in all industrial businesses, including double-digit growth in Siemens Healthineers, Digital Industries and Smart Infrastructure and in all reporting regions
  • Significant currency translation effects took five percentage points from order and three percentage points from revenue growth yearover-year; portfolio effects, primarily related to the acquisition of Varian Medical Systems Inc. (Varian) during the quarter, added eight percentage points to order and six percentage points to revenue growth
  • Higher Adjusted EBITA Industrial Businesses due mainly to sharp increases at Siemens Healthineers and Smart Infrastructure; continued strong performance at Digital Industries, which in Q3 FY 2020 included a positive €0.2 billion effect related to revaluation of the stake in Bentley Systems, Inc. (Bentley) and at Mobility
  • Outside Industrial Businesses, sharply higher earnings at Siemens Financial Services were more than offset by other factors, primarily a negative result from Siemens Energy Investment and higher amortization of intangible assets acquired in business combinations resulting mainly from the Varian acquisition
  • Net income rose sharply on higher Adjusted EBITA Industrial Businesses, lower income tax expenses due mainly to the reversal of income tax provisions, and a positive swing in discontinued operations, which also benefited from a reversal of income tax provisions; in Q3 FY 2020 discontinued operations recorded a loss mainly related to the former energy business
  • Significantly higher Free cash flow generation for Industrial Businesses in the third quarter, with broad-based improvements continuing the strong performance in the first half of FY 2021; this resulted in Free cash flow for Industrial Businesses of €2.4 billion, up from €2.1 billion in Q3 FY 2020, on a cash conversion rate of 1.04; Free cash flow from discontinued operations was close to zero, while in Q3 FY 2020 significant cash inflows were recorded mainly from the former energy business
  • Cash outflows of €13.4 billion related to the Varian acquisition; payments are not part of Free cash flow
  • Provisions for pensions and similar obligations as of June 30, 2021: €2.9 billion (March 31, 2021: €3.3 billion); decreased mainly due to a positive return on plan assets, which was partly offset by lower discount rate assumptions
  • ROCE increased due mainly to higher net income

Digital Industries

  • Sharp order increases in the short-cycle automation businesses on continued recovery in their most important customer industries such as automotive and machine building; continued strength in the software business was highlighted by significant growth for product lifecycle management software, while orders for electronic design automation software did not reach the high level of Q3 FY 2020 which included a number of larger contract wins
  • Revenue was up in all businesses on a comparable basis, with the strongest increases coming from the automation business which successfully mitigated ongoing supply chain risks primarily associated with electronics components
  • On a geographic basis, volume grew in all reporting regions, with the highest increases in China and Europe
  • Continued strong Adjusted EBITA performance including sharp increases in the short-cycle activities on higher revenue and supported by prior cost structure improvements; Adjusted EBITA in Q3 FY 2020 included a positive €211 million effect related to revaluation of the stake in Bentley, which added 5.7 percentage points to Adjusted EBITA margin
  • In August 2021, Digital Industries closed the USD 0.7 billion acquisition of Supplyframe, Inc., a marketplace for the global electronics value chain

Adjusted EBITA margin 12.1% 7.4%
excl. severance 12.3% 7.8%
  • Orders and revenue rose in all businesses led by the products business, including strong demand from industrial customers, and by the systems and software business which recorded a number of significant contract wins
  • On a geographic basis, volume grew in all three reporting regions, including substantial order growth in Europe and Asia while revenue growth was balanced more evenly across the reporting regions
  • Adjusted EBITA and profitability improved in all businesses, most notably in the products business, due largely to higher capacity utilization related to increased revenue and cost savings across the businesses achieved through prior execution of the competitiveness program

therein: severance (6) (5)
Adjusted EBITA margin 9.0% 7.1%
excl. severance 9.3% 7.3%
  • Significant contract wins in both reporting periods underscore demand for Mobility's advanced technology solutions; orders sharply higher due among others to a €2.8. billion order for trainsets including dual powered and hybrid battery vehicles and associated services in the U.S., Mobility's largest-ever order in the Americas; order intake also included a €0.4 billion order for passenger coaches in the Czech Republic and a €0.2 billion order for a signaling system in Taiwan
  • Higher revenue and Adjusted EBITA were driven largely by the rail infrastructure business
  • Results overall benefited from partially reduced restrictions related to COVID-19 year-over-year, particularly regarding employee access to work sites

  • Reported results for Siemens Healthineers now include results for Varian subsequent to April 15, 2021, when the acquisition closed
  • Double-digit volume growth in all businesses and reporting regions compared to the challenging quarter a year earlier during the first wave of pandemic restrictions; most notably, the diagnostics business saw both peak volume in rapid coronavirus antigen testing and higher volume from testing for routine care
  • Very strong Adjusted EBITA and increase in profitability due primarily to the confluence of positive factors in the diagnostics business mentioned above; Adjusted EBITA included expenses totaling €0.1 billion related to the closing of the Varian transaction and its ongoing integration

  • Strong earnings contribution from the debt business driven by sharply lower expenses for credit risk provisions compared to Q3 FY 2020, when results were significantly influenced by effects related to COVID-19
  • Moderate earnings from the equity business in part related to seasonal effects on offshore wind-farm projects; Q3 FY 2020 included an impairment on an equity investment
  • Increase in total assets since the end of fiscal 2020 mainly due to growth in the debt business

  • The result for Siemens Energy Investment includes participation in its profit after tax and, in addition, amortization of assets resulting from purchase price allocation due to the initial recognition of the investment at fair value in Q4 FY 2020
  • Corporate items were influenced by a number of factors, including higher severance charges of €21 million (€11 million in Q3 FY 2020)
  • Amortization of intangible assets acquired in business combinations: the increase related mainly to the Varian acquisition
  • Eliminations, Corporate Treasury and other reconciling items included expenses of €89 million related to the settlement of a deal contingent forward entered into in fiscal year 2020 in connection with the Varian acquisition

Outlook

Following our excellent performance in the first nine months of fiscal 2021, we expect our businesses to again deliver a strong close for the full fiscal year. We assume that our businesses do not experience significant supply chain constraints during the remainder of the fiscal year. Given these assumptions, we again raise our outlook for the fiscal year and include in our outlook for net income effects in connection with Siemens Healthineers' acquisition of Varian Medical Systems, Inc.

We raise our expectation for comparable revenue, net of currency translation and portfolio effects, to growth of 11% to 12% (formerly 9% to 11%). We continue to expect a book-to-bill ratio above 1.

Digital Industries expects comparable revenue to grow in the range of 10% to 12% (formerly 9% to 11%) year-over-year. The expectation for Adjusted EBITA margin continues to be 20% to 21%.

Smart Infrastructure expects to achieve comparable revenue growth of 8% to 9% in fiscal 2021 (formerly 5% to 7%). The expectation for Adjusted EBITA margin continues to be 11% to 12%.

Mobility continues to anticipate mid-single-digit comparable revenue growth and an Adjusted EBITA margin of 9.5% to 10.5% in fiscal 2021.

Based on the results already achieved during the first nine months of fiscal 2021 and the expectations described above, we raise our outlook for net income to the range from €6.1 billion to €6.4 billion (formerly €5.7 billion to €6.2 billion).

This outlook excludes burdens from legal and regulatory issues.
