Munich, Germany, August 8, 2024
Profitable growth in third quarter - outlook confirmed
"We grew profitably in the third quarter, continuing to benefit from the high demand in electrification. Another growth driver was our particularly strong industrial software business, which won several large license contracts. The industrial automation business remains challenging. We confirm our company's full-year outlook," said Roland Busch, President and Chief Executive Officer of Siemens AG.
"Overall, we achieved clear increases in both net income and profit margin in the third quarter. We again generated strong Free cash flow, and we will re-emphasize our clear focus on cash with a strong fourth quarter," said Ralf P. Thomas, Chief Financial Officer of Siemens AG.

- On a nominal basis, revenue increased 4\% to $€ 18.9$ billion; orders were down 16\% at $€ 19.8$ billion but exceeded revenue for a book-tobill ratio of 1.05 , and the order backlog remained on a high level at $€ 113$ billion
- Profit Industrial Business rose 11\% to $€ 3.0$ billion, and the profit margin reached $16.5 \%$, well above the prior-year quarter
- Net income was $€ 2.1$ billion, with corresponding basic earnings per share (EPS) of $€ 2.51$ and EPS before purchase price allocation accounting (EPS pre PPA) of $€ 2.66$

- Exceptionally high order growth in the software business driven by a number of large contract wins for licensed software; orders in the automation businesses came in moderately lower, as elevated stock levels at customers continued in a challenging market environment
- Higher revenue in the software business was more than offset by lower revenue in the automation businesses and negative portfolio and currency translation effects; on a geographic basis, revenue rose in the Asia, Australia and the Americas regions driven by the large license contracts mentioned above while it declined in the Europe, C.I.S., Africa, Middle East (Europe/CAME) region
- Profit and profitability rose on sharp increases in the software business, more than offsetting profit declines in the automation businesses, which continued to be impacted by reduced capacity utilization on lower revenue; profit included a $€ 70$ million gain from the sale of a business
- Significant order growth on contributions from all businesses, most notably the electrification and the buildings businesses; order intake included a number of larger contracts from data center and energy customers; on a geographic basis, the highest growth contribution came from the region Europe/CAME
- Revenue also rose in all businesses, including substantial growth from the electrification business which continued to execute strongly on its large order backlog; on a geographic basis, the highest growth contribution came from the U.S.
- Smart Infrastructure continued its broad-based increase in profit and profitability year-over-year on higher revenue, increased capacity utilization and ongoing productivity improvements
- While order intake included a $€ 0.3$ billion order for a communications-based train control system for metro lines and maintenance in Germany, order intake came in lower than in Q3 FY 2023, when Mobility reported a record-high order intake, including a $€ 2.5$ billion order for a turnkey rail system in Egypt and a $€ 2.1$ billion order for suburban trains in Germany
- Revenue growth in the customer services and the rail infrastructure businesses offset a moderate decline in the rolling stock business, which experienced a temporary production slow-down resulting from supplier quality issues
- Profit rose in the majority of the businesses, led by the rail infrastructure business; overall, profit and profitability grew on a more favorable business and project mix

- Broad-based volume increase; the highest contribution to revenue growth came from the imaging and Varian businesses
- Profit and profitability improved in most businesses, notably at the diagnostics business due mainly to cost reductions related to its transformation program; declines in the imaging business resulted primarily from negative currency effects
- Siemens Financial Services recorded a solid earnings contribution with higher results from the debt business due primarily to lower expenses for credit risk provisions
- In Q3 FY 2023, results for the equity business benefited from a gain of $€ 57$ million from the sale of a stake in an equity investment
- Decrease in total assets driven mainly by negative currency translation effects
- In Q1 FY 2024 Siemens ceased accounting for Siemens Energy under the equity method; the remaining stake is reported as financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
- Financing, eliminations and other items included a lower positive result at Corporate Treasury primarily in connection with earnings from interest rate derivatives
- Siemens Logistics, Siemens Energy Assets India and Innomotics India, formerly reported within Portfolio Companies, are included in the item Financing, elimination and other items
Outlook
We confirm our outlook given in the Earnings Release Q2 FY 2024, with comparable revenue growth for the Siemens Group and profit margin for Digital Industries expected at the lower end of the respective ranges and profit margin for Smart Infrastructure expected at the upper end of the range.
Our expectations given in the Earning Release Q2 FY 2024 were as follows:
For the Siemens Group we expect comparable revenue growth, net of currency translation and portfolio effects, in the range of $4 \%$ to $8 \%$ and a book-to-bill ratio above 1.
Digital Industries expects comparable revenue for fiscal 2024 to come in $8 \%$ to $4 \%$ below the prior year and a profit margin in the range of $18 \%$ to $21 \%$.
Smart Infrastructure expects for fiscal 2024 comparable revenue growth of $8 \%$ to $10 \%$ and a profit margin of $16 \%$ to $17 \%$.
Mobility expects for fiscal 2024 comparable revenue growth of $8 \%$ to $11 \%$ and a profit margin of $8 \%$ to $10 \%$.
We expect profitable growth of our Industrial Business overall to drive an increase in basic EPS from net income before purchase price allocation accounting (EPS pre PPA) to a range of $€ 10.40$ to $€ 11.00$ in fiscal 2024, excluding a positive $€ 0.61$ per share from Siemens Energy Investment in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. EPS pre PPA excluding Siemens Energy Investment in fiscal 2023 was €9.93.
This outlook excludes burdens from legal and regulatory matters.

These statements may be identified by words such as "expect," "look forward to," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "believe," "seek," "estimate," "will," "project" or words of similar meaning. We may also make forwardlooking statements in other reports, in prospectuses, in presentations, in material delivered to shareholders and in press releases. In addition, our representatives may from time to time make oral forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on the current expectations and certain assumptions of Siemens' management, of which many are beyond Siemens' control. These are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and factors, including, but not limited to those described in disclosures, in particular in the chapter Report on expected developments and associated material opportunities and risks in the Combined Management Report of the Siemens Report (siemens.com/siemensreport), and in the Interim Group Management Report of the Half-year Financial Report (provided that it is already available for the current reporting year), which should be read in conjunction with the Combined Management Report. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, should decisions, assessments or requirements of regulatory authorities deviate from our expectations, should events of force majeure, such as pandemics, unrest or acts of war, occur or should underlying expectations including future events occur at a later date or not at all or assumptions prove incorrect, actual results, performance or achievements of Siemens may (negatively or positively) vary materially from those described explicitly or implicitly in the relevant forward-looking statement. Siemens neither intends, nor assumes any obligation, to update or revise these forward-looking statements in light of developments which differ from those anticipated.
