Key figures

Outlook

We are on track to deliver an increase in year-on-year operational profitability and robust cash flow for the full year 2016. We are more cautious about comparable sales growth, as we anticipate softer market conditions in the Middle East & Turkey as well as in some European countries to continue in the fourth quarter. This will likely delay our return to positive comparable sales growth beyond the fourth quarter into 2017.

7.5% 10.0% Adjusted EBITA margin (%) 7.2% 8.8%

Third quarter

Sales amounted to €1,745 million, a decline of 3.3% on a comparable basis. The decrease was mainly due to worsened market conditions in the Middle East & Turkey and softer performance in Germany and the United Kingdom, while Benelux and France realized solid growth. Continued sales growth in LED and Home was partly offset by a decline in Professional sales, while sales in Lamps continued to decrease - although at a slower pace than previous quarters.

Adjusted gross margin increased to €692 million, largely driven by operational and productivity savings and partly offset by price erosion. As a percentage of sales, adjusted gross margin improved by 410 basis points to 39.7%. Adjusted indirect costs decreased to €548 million, driven by our cost reduction program and despite a €10 million charge for the brand license fee. Adjusted EBITA increased to €175 million, resulting in an improved adjusted EBITA margin of 10.0%.

Restructuring and other incidentals amounted to €55 million. Restructuring costs were €49 million, while other incidental items included a net charge of €6 million for separation costs. Restructuring charges for 2016 are expected to be in line with 1.5-2.0% of sales as previously indicated.

Net income of €51 million includes €30 million in charges for the brand license fee, net separation costs and financial expenses, which were not applicable in 2015. Financial expenses were related to the new financing structure of the company following its separation from Royal Philips.

Business highlights

  • LED: Philips Lighting reached a technological breakthrough as it developed a high lumen LED alternative for popular high wattage CFLi bulbs. These LED retrofit bulbs, which put out up to 3,000 lumen and fit existing fixture and luminaires, are now available in Asia and Latin America.
  • Professional/Architectural: The 220-meter tall Warsaw Spire skyscraper in Poland, including over 88,000 LED light points, was lighted with Philips Color Kinetics technology. The project is the largest installation of Philips Color Kinetics technology in Central Europe.
  • Professional/Arena: Series A champion Juventus adopted ArenaVision LED pitch lighting in its Juventus Stadium in Turin, Italy. The system can also be used to produce pre-match light shows.
  • Professional/Infrastructure: Philips Lighting partnered with the city of Los Angeles to help improve public safety and expand city services. New acoustic sensing software integrated into Philips City Touch light poles will reduce emergency response time by detecting the sound of a vehicle collision and relaying information instantly to emergency services.
  • Professional/OEM: Philips Lighting opened its indoor positioning technology for shops and stores to other lighting products by introducing the YellowDot program. The program allows manufacturers to test and certify their LED luminaires to work with Philips Lighting's indoor positioning technology.
  • Home: The Philips Hue Motion Sensor was introduced, enabling motion control of the connected lighting system, while expansion of Philips Hue partnerships continued with agreements to add Huawei Technologies' "Ocean Connect" and an expansion of functions that can be voice controlled with Amazon Alexa.

Third quarter

Sales amounted to €570 million, a decline of 13.3% on a comparable basis, showing an improvement in comparison to previous quarters. Adjusted EBITA increased to €120 million, mainly driven by manufacturing footprint rationalization, procurement and productivity savings. Adjusted EBITA margin improved to 21.1%. Restructuring costs amounted to €10 million, primarily related to ongoing rationalization of the manufacturing footprint.

As part of the business strategy, active portfolio management led to the successful divestment of the quartz and special glass business in the Netherlands.

This performance supports our strategy to continue to extract value from the conventional business.

Third quarter

Sales were €377 million, resulting in comparable sales growth of 11.5%. While volume growth remained strong, sales grew less rapidly versus previous quarters due to price erosion and mix impact. Softer growth experienced in the Americas in the second quarter was prolonged in the third quarter. In addition, some countries in Europe showed slower sales growth, particularly those with high LED penetration. The Rest of the World showed robust growth.

Adjusted EBITA increased to €40 million, driven by material procurement savings, operational leverage and indirect cost reduction, partly offset by price erosion. This led to a significant improvement of adjusted EBITA margin at 10.6%.

Third quarter

Sales declined 3.8% on a comparable basis to €664 million, affected by worsened market conditions in the Middle East & Turkey. Excluding the Middle East & Turkey comparable sales growth was positive. Demand was also affected by a softer outdoor market in some European countries, while the Americas posted growth.

Adjusted EBITA came in at €42 million. Procurement savings and production efficiency improvements were offset by lower sales and write downs on bad debt in the Middle East & Turkey. The adjusted EBITA margin amounted to 6.3%. Restructuring charges amounted to €41 million, mainly related to a simplification of business structures, reduction of indirect costs and footprint rationalization.

Third quarter

Sales in the third quarter increased to €130 million as comparable sales improved by 11.0%. This double-digit growth was supported by the Home Luminaires and Home Systems businesses. All markets contributed to growth.

Adjusted EBITA neared the break-even point at €-1 million, showing a major year-on-year improvement. This was attributable to operational efficiency gains, procurement savings and operational leverage.

Other

Adjusted EBITA amounted to €-26 million in the quarter (Q3 2015: €-22 million) consisting primarily of group enabling function costs. The decline was mostly attributable to environmental provisions related to legacy sites. Other incidental items not part of the adjusted EBITA included a charge of €19 million for separation costs and a gain of €13 million related to a release of provisions with Royal Philips originating from the separation.

Sales in Germany and the United Kingdom were lower, while Benelux and France realized solid growth. In the Americas, sales declined 1.9% on a comparable basis due to conventional lighting. Sales on a comparable basis for the Rest of the World declined 5.4%, affected by worsened market conditions in the Middle East & Turkey, partly offset by growth in India and China.
