  Started the process of creating two market-leading companies focused to capitalize on the HealthTech and Lighting solutions opportunities

Frans van Houten, CEO:

“The successful execution of our Accelerate! program continues to improve operational performance in most of our businesses. We are very excited by the vast opportunities in the HealthTech and Lighting solutions markets that we will capitalize on with the creation of two dedicated market-leading companies.

As we manage through a challenging 2014 and given a number of incidentals, we are not satisfied with our overall performance in the third quarter. We are facing sustained softness in a number of markets such as China and Russia. We were also confronted by an adverse jury verdict with a surprisingly high proposed award in the Masimo litigation, which we will appeal. On a positive note, production at our Cleveland facility is ramping up.

In Healthcare, we were pleased to win four multi-year strategic contracts, thereby demonstrating that our integrated solutions are gaining momentum despite a very slow market. In Consumer Lifestyle, our focus on health and wellness products is yielding good results, as demonstrated by the solid performance of Oral Healthcare and Mother & Child Care, despite challenging conditions in some of our bigger markets. In Lighting, we improved the performance of Consumer Luminaires in Europe and achieved double-digit growth and market share gains in Lumileds, which helped to balance the decline in conventional lighting.

As a few of the near-term headwinds start to abate and our Accelerate! program continues to improve our operational performance, we expect our adjusted EBITA in the second half of 2014 to be slightly below the adjusted EBITA in the same period last year and we remain committed to our 2016 financial targets.


Q3 financial and operational overview:

Healthcare

“We are making good progress in the remediation of the quality management system at our Cleveland facility. We have now also resumed production of the iCT and Ingenuity scanners, and production ramp-up will continue through the first quarter of 2015. This will contribute to improved performance in the fourth quarter and into 2015.

More broadly, we are seeing good traction with our programs that address government and health system goals of improving population health and delivering quality care more effectively. This is illustrated by our new 15-year contract with the Reinier de Graaf hospital in the Netherlands, the 14-year contract with the Karolinska University Hospital and the Stockholm County Council, and the 10-year contract related to the 700-bed Philippine Orthopedic Centre in the Philippines, where our systems and consultancy will help improve operational performance.”

Healthcare comparable sales grew by 1% year-on-year. The EBITA margin, excluding restructuring costs and various charges, was 12%, a decrease of 2.6 percentage points year-on-year. Currency-comparable equipment order intake declined by 1%.

Consumer Lifestyle

“In Consumer Lifestyle, we are continuing to expand our offering to help consumers make healthier choices every day and drive value from the ‘Internet of Things’. In the third quarter, we introduced a number of digital cloud-connected solutions, including an application to manage chronic pain treatment and an oral healthcare application that helps children to brush their teeth more effectively.”

Consumer Lifestyle comparable sales increased by 5%, with mid-single-digit growth in Health & Wellness and Domestic Appliances and low-single-digit growth in Personal Care. The EBITA margin, excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges and other items, was 10.6%, compared with 11.1% in the same period last year. The margin decline was attributable to country and product mix.

The company also launched a series of exciting new products. Philips expanded the geographic reach of its domestic appliances with the NoodleMaker now available in Japan, Australia and North America, and is seeing sustained strong global demand for the Philips Airfryer. Building on its Male Grooming growth strategy to drive loyalty and to create more value among existing users, the flagship Philips Shaver Series 9000 is being launched in 47 countries. Philips’ latest innovations in skincare, the Philips VisaCare and VisaPure, and in hair removal, Philips Lumea, are delivering strong growth in markets around the world.

Lighting

In Lighting, we are solving customer needs with exciting energy-efficient LED solutions, and our breakthrough range of Hue Beyond connected luminaires illustrates how well-positioned we are to drive profitable growth through leading LED innovations, connected ecosystems and professional systems and services. We saw encouraging wins, including a partnership in Indonesia to install LED lighting solutions in nearly 1,000 convenience stores and a contract to deliver LED pitch lighting for Chelsea’s Stamford Bridge stadium in London.”

Lighting comparable sales declined 1% year-on-year. LED-based sales grew by 28%, offset by a decline of 14% in overall conventional lighting sales. LED sales now represent 40% of total Lighting sales, compared to 30% in Q3 2013. Excluding restructuring charges and costs associated with setting up Automotive and Lumileds as a stand-alone company, the EBITA margin amounted to 9.7%. The EBITA margin was impacted by a combination of factors in China, including a slowing market and tightening liquidity resulting in customer credit provisions.


The recovery of Consumer Luminaires in Europe is progressing and the company continues to expect Consumer Luminaires’ adjusted EBITA to break-even for the full year. Philips’ progress in turning around Professional Lighting Solutions in North America also continued as it began to build growth momentum in September and expects to deliver profitable growth in the fourth quarter.

Innovation, Group & Services

As part of our commitment to drive leadership positions in emerging business areas, in the third quarter Philips completed the acquisition of Unisensor, a small company offering technology which we plan to leverage for miniaturized, mobile diagnostic solutions. We are also installing Philips GreenPower LED in several horticulture projects in Belgium, Finland, the Netherlands, UK and Canada. Our LED light recipes have been recognized by international growers, as they help to boost crop growth and improve productivity. We’ve also seen encouraging traction in Digital Pathology, where we signed three new contracts in the third quarter.”

Excluding restructuring costs, provisions related to various legal matters in the quarter and the pension settlement loss in the third quarter of 2013, EBITA was a net cost of EUR 48 million, compared to a net cost of EUR 28 million in Q3 2013. The decrease was mainly due to higher investments in our emerging business areas and lower IP-related income.

Capital Markets Day strategic announcement

On September 23, 2014, Philips announced that it will sharpen its strategic focus by establishing two market-leading companies in HealthTech and Lighting solutions. Both companies will continue to leverage the Philips brand and will be optimally positioned to deliver long-term profitable growth. Philips has started the process of transitioning the Lighting solutions business into a separate legal structure. It is expected that the process of separation will take 12-18 months to complete.

Update on Accelerate! transformation program

Accelerate! continued to drive improvements across the organization, resulting in increased customer centricity, enhanced customer service levels, faster time-to-market for our innovations and higher cost productivity.

Professional Lighting Solutions in North America, for example, completed the redesign of its market-to-order processes in the third quarter. With access to new tools and application-specific expertise, customer service levels moved up to 95%. By deploying Lean, the company also achieved significant enhancements to customer service levels, lead times and quality levels, with many of its sites achieving double-digit productivity improvements.

Overhead cost savings amounted to EUR 37 million for the quarter, bringing the cumulative annualized overhead cost savings in the first nine months of the year to EUR 264 million. The Design for Excellence (DfX) program generated EUR 17 million of incremental savings in the bill of material in the quarter, resulting in EUR 187 million of cumulative DfX savings to date. The End2End productivity program achieved incremental savings of EUR 18 million in the quarter, which brings the cumulative amount of End2End productivity savings to EUR 50 million.

The next phase of productivity improvements will enable additional cost savings across the support functions, resulting in EUR 100 million of additional savings in 2015 and a further EUR 200 million in 2016. Philips expects to incur approximately EUR 50 million of additional annual restructuring costs in the period 2014 to 2016.

As of September 30, 2014, Philips had completed 32% of the EUR 1.5 billion share buy-back program.


Conference call and audio webcast

Frans van Houten, CEO, and Ron Wirahadiraksa, CFO, will host a conference call for investors and analysts at 10:00 am CET to discuss the results. A live audio webcast of the conference call will be available on the Philips Investor Relations website.

Net income

 

  Net income showed a loss of EUR 103 million, compared to a profit of EUR 281 million in Q3 2013. The year-on-year decrease reflects higher charges related to incidental items and lower operational results, partly offset by lower income tax and higher results from investments in associates.

 

  EBITA amounted to a loss of EUR 7 million, compared to a profit of EUR 564 million, or 10.1% of sales, in Q3 2013. Restructuring and acquisition-related charges amounted to EUR 79 million, compared to EUR 41 million in Q3 2013.

 

  Q3 2014 also included charges of EUR 366 million related to the jury verdict in the Masimo litigation, EUR 49 million of mainly inventory write-downs related to the Cleveland facility, EUR 43 million of provisions related to various ongoing legal matters, and EUR 6 million of costs associated with setting up Automotive and Lumileds as a stand-alone company. Q3 2013 included a settlement loss of EUR 31 million arising from a lump-sum offering to terminated vested employees in the US pension plan.

 

  EBITA, excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges and other items, was EUR 536 million, or 9.7% of sales, compared to EUR 636 million, or 11.4% of sales, in Q3 2013. Unfavorable currency effects had an impact on Q3 2014 EBITA of 0.9 percentage points of sales.

 

  Income taxes amounted to a gain of EUR 38 million, compared to an expense of EUR 110 million in Q3 2013, largely due to an earnings loss recorded in the period.

 

  Results from investments in associates amounted to EUR 42 million, which included a EUR 32 million dilution gain related to Philips’ stake in Corindus Vascular Robotics.

 

  Discontinued operations decreased by EUR 22 million, mainly due to the European Commission’s Smartcard fine.

Excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges, charges of EUR 366 million related to the jury verdict in the Masimo litigation, and EUR 49 million of mainly inventory write-downs related to the Cleveland facility, EBITA amounted to EUR 267 million, or 12.0% of sales, compared to EUR 330 million, or 14.6% of sales, in Q3 2013. The decrease was mainly attributable to operational losses due to the voluntary suspension of production at the Cleveland facility and negative currency impacts.

 

  Consumer Lifestyle EBITA decreased by EUR 2 million year-on-year. Excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges, EBITA was EUR 118 million, or 10.6% of sales, compared to EUR 121 million, or 11.1% of sales, in Q3 2013. The decrease was largely attributable to lower gross margins.

 

  Lighting EBITA decreased by EUR 15 million year-on-year. Excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges and EUR 6 million of costs associated with setting up Automotive and Lumileds as a stand-alone company, EBITA was EUR 199 million, or 9.7% of sales, compared to EUR 213 million, or 10.2% of sales, in Q3 2013. The decrease was mainly due to customer credit provisions in China.

 

  Innovation, Group & Services EBITA decreased by EUR 74 million year-on-year. Excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges, EUR 43 million of provisions related to various ongoing legal matters in Q3 2014, and the EUR 31 million pension settlement loss of Q3 2013, EBITA was a net cost of EUR 48 million, compared to a net cost of EUR 28 million in Q3 2013. The decrease was mainly due to higher investments in emerging business areas and lower IP income.

Financial income and expenses

 

  Financial income and expenses amounted to a net expense of EUR 81 million, compared to EUR 92 million in Q3 2013. The decrease of EUR 11 million was largely attributable to gains on the sale of financial assets, partly offset by interest expense related to the jury verdict in the Masimo litigation.

Cash balance

 

  The cash balance increased during Q3 2014 to EUR 1,716 million, with a free cash inflow of EUR 166 million, which included an outflow of EUR 45 million in the form of a pension contribution related to the de-risking of the Dutch pension plan. The cash balance was also impacted by a EUR 148 million outflow, mainly related to the acquisition of a 51% interest in General Lighting Company (GLC) in Saudi Arabia, EUR 96 million mainly related to gains on the sale of financial assets, the use of EUR 120 million in treasury shares transactions, and EUR 310 million related to debt issuance.

 

  In Q3 2013 the cash balance decreased to EUR 2,034 million. A free cash flow of EUR 122 million was more than offset by a net outflow of EUR 236 million, mainly related to debt redemption, and a EUR 88 million outflow related to discontinued operations.

Cash flows from operating activities

 

  Operating activities resulted in a cash inflow of EUR 365 million, compared to an inflow of EUR 342 million in Q3 2013. Higher cash flows from working capital were partly offset by lower cash earnings.

Gross capital expenditures

 

  Gross capital expenditures on property, plant and equipment were EUR 22 million lower than in Q3 2013, mainly due to lower investments at Lighting and Consumer Lifestyle.

Inventories

 

  Inventory value at the end of Q3 2014 was EUR 4.0 billion and amounted to 17.6% of sales.

 

  Compared to Q3 2013, inventories as a percentage of sales increased by 1.2 percentage points, driven by increases at Healthcare, Lighting and the consolidation of General Lighting Company (GLC).

Net debt and group equity

 

  At the end of Q3 2014, Philips had a net debt position of EUR 2.6 billion, compared to EUR 2.0 billion at the end of Q3 2013. During the quarter, the net debt position increased by EUR 260 million, as higher debt issuance was partly offset by a free cash inflow of EUR 166 million and EUR 96 million mainly related to the sale of financial assets.

 

  Group equity increased by EUR 243 million in the quarter to EUR 11.0 billion. The increase was largely a result of currency effects, partly offset by net losses incurred during the period and treasury shares transactions.

Employees

 

  The number of employees increased by 1,590 year-on-year. This included a reduction of 705 due to divestments and an increase of 1,467 related to the acquisition of GLC in Saudi Arabia. Excluding these movements, the number of employees increased by 828, as industrial footprint rationalization at Lighting was more than offset by increases in all other sectors.

 

  The number of employees increased by 2,427 compared to Q2 2014, largely due to the GLC acquisition and increases at Consumer Lifestyle and IG&S.

Business highlights

 

  Reflecting its focus on long-term partnerships, Philips signed a 15-year alliance with the Reinier de Graaf hospital in the Netherlands that includes advanced imaging solutions, customized services and consultancy to continuously improve the hospital’s clinical and operational performance.

 

  Building on the strategic long-term collaboration with Stockholm City Council and the Karolinska University hospital announced earlier, Philips’ scope has further increased to include image-guided therapy solutions and consultancy services for the hospital’s stroke care workflow.

 

  In a further advance to make affordable healthcare accessible to wider patient populations, Philips launched the VISIQ, an ultra-mobile tablet-based system for quality ultrasound imaging, in India. Philips also received US FDA 510(k) clearance for the VISIQ.

 

  Helping patients’ transition from hospital to home, Philips’ first clinical applications for its HealthSuite Digital Platform, eCareCoordinator and eCareCompanion, received US FDA 510(k) clearance. These applications give clinicians better patient data access and analysis, and help patients manage their health.

 

  Recognizing Philips’ innovation in patient interface solutions, the US Department of Health and Human Services awarded Philips a three-year contract to develop portable and easy-to-operate ventilators for disaster preparedness in the event of a pandemic or other public health emergency.

  Comparable sales grew 1% year-on-year. Customer Services and Home Health Solutions achieved mid-single-digit growth, Patient Care & Clinical Informatics recorded low-single-digit growth, while Imaging Systems posted a mid-single-digit decline.

 

  Comparable sales in growth geographies showed mid-single-digit growth. Western Europe recorded a low-single-digit decline, while other mature geographies achieved mid-single-digit growth. North America recorded a 1% decline.

 

  EBITA amounted to a loss of EUR 151 million, compared to a profit of EUR 329 million, or 14.6% of sales, in Q3 2013. EBITA included charges of EUR 366 million related to the jury verdict in the Masimo litigation and EUR 49 million of mainly inventory write-downs related to the Cleveland facility.

 

  Excluding restructuring and acquisition-related charges and other items, EBITA amounted to EUR 267 million, or 12.0% of sales, compared to EUR 330 million, or 14.6% of sales, in Q3 2013. The decrease was mainly due to operational losses related to the voluntary suspension of production at the Cleveland facility and negative currency impacts.

 

  Net operating capital, excluding a positive currency translation effect of EUR 314 million, decreased by EUR 578 million. This decrease was largely driven by higher provisions and lower fixed assets, partly offset by increased working capital.

 

  Inventories as a percentage of sales increased by 1.5 percentage points year-on-year.

 

  Compared to Q3 2013, the number of employees was 229 lower, mainly due to overhead reduction and divestments. Compared to Q2 2014, the number of employees increased by 183, with reductions in North America more than offset by increases in Asia Pacific.

Miscellaneous

 

  Restructuring and acquisition-related charges in Q4 2014 are expected to total approximately EUR 60 million, mainly related to the implementation of the new operating structure.

 

  As announced on September 23, 2014, the additional EBITA impact related to the Cleveland facility is expected to be EUR 100 million in the second half of 2014. Philips is making good progress in the remediation of the quality management system at the Cleveland facility. Philips has now also resumed production of the iCT and Ingenuity scanners, and production ramp-up will continue through the first quarter of 2015.

  EBITA amounted to a net cost of EUR 132 million, compared to a net cost of EUR 58 million in Q3 2013. EBITA in Q3 2014 included EUR 43 million of provisions related to various ongoing legal matters, while Q3 2013 included a EUR 31 million settlement loss arising from a lump-sum offering to terminated vested employees in the US pension plan.

Other information

On October 3, 2014 Philips announced that it will appeal the jury verdict in the patent infringement lawsuit by Masimo Corporation (Masimo) in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against Philips, in which Masimo was awarded a compensation of USD 467 million (EUR 366 million).

The decision by the jury is part of extensive litigation, which started in 2009, between Masimo and Philips involving several claims and counterclaims related to a large number of patents.

The lawsuit filed by Masimo alleges that certain Masimo patents are infringed by certain Philips products. In response, Philips filed its answer and counterclaims alleging infringement of a number of Philips’ patents and violation of US antitrust laws and patent misuse by Masimo.

The Court has decided to handle the litigation in several phases, the first phase of which was tried in September 2014. The recent decision by the jury is associated with this first phase of the litigation. As stated, Philips intends to pursue all avenues of appeal of this verdict at both the District and Appellate courts in the US.

Due to the considerable uncertainty associated with the next phases of this litigation, including the impact of the appeals thereon, the company has concluded that, on the basis of current knowledge, potential losses cannot be reliably estimated with respect to the remaining phases of the litigation. The outcome of the litigation could have a materially adverse effect on the company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Forward-looking statements

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 EBITA and future developments in the 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, developments within the euro zone, 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, changes in exchange and interest rates, changes in tax rates, pension costs and actuarial assumptions, raw materials and employee costs, the ability to identify and complete successful 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, 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 the Annual Report 2013 and the “Risk and uncertainties” section in the semi-annual financial report for the six months ended June 29, 2014.

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-GAAP information

In presenting and discussing the Philips Group 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. Non-GAAP 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-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures is contained in this document. Further information on non-GAAP measures can be found in the Annual Report 2013.

Use of fair-value measurements

In presenting the Philips Group 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 2013. Independent valuations may have been obtained to support management’s determination of fair values.

All amounts are in millions of euros unless otherwise stated. All reported data is unaudited. Financial reporting is in accordance with the accounting policies as stated in the Annual Report 2013, unless otherwise stated.

Prior-period financials have been restated for two voluntary accounting policy changes applied as of January 1, 2014. The first voluntary accounting policy change relates to a reclassification of cost by function in

 

 

20    Q3 2014 Quarterly report


the income statement. Company-wide overhead and indirect Business function costs will be brought more in line with the actual activities performed in the markets. This change has no net effect on Income from operations. The second voluntary accounting policy change relates to a change in the presentation in the cash flow statement. Up and until 2013 the cash flows related to interest, tax and pensions were presented in a table separate from the primary consolidated statement of cash flows. The presentation change results in the separate presentation of the interest and tax cash flows in cash flow from operating activities. The pension cash flows are separately presented as part of the pension disclosures. The presentation change has no impact on the net cash flows from operating activities nor the total net cash balance as these cash flows previously used to be part of other aggregated sub lines of the primary consolidated statement of cash flows. An overview of the revised full-year 2012 and 2013 figures per quarter is available on the Philips website, in the Investor Relations section.
