October 28, 2024 Third-quarter highlights
- Group sales amounted to EUR 4.4 billion, with flat comparable
sales growth
- Income from operations was EUR 337 million
- Adjusted EBITA margin increased by 160 basis points from 10.2%
to 11.8% of sales
- Operating cashflow of EUR 192 million, with a free cashflow of
EUR 22 million
- Comparable order intake decreased by 2%, due to decline in
China
- Outlook for full-year 2024 revised to reflect deteriorated
demand in China: comparable sales growth within an updated range
0.5%-1.5%, Adjusted EBITA margin at around 11.5%, the upper end of
current range; free cashflow at around EUR 0.9 billion, at lower
end of current range
Roy Jakobs, CEO of Royal Philips:“In the
quarter, demand from hospitals and consumers in China further
deteriorated, while we continue to see solid growth in other
regions. We have adjusted our full-year sales outlook to reflect
the continued impact from China.
Strong improvement in profitability was driven by progress on
our execution priorities, productivity measures and the improved
margins of our AI-driven, industry-leading innovations.
Within a challenging macro environment, we remain focused on
successfully executing our three-year plan to fully capture growth
and margin expansion opportunities. With patient safety as our
number one priority, we are committed to delivering better care for
more people.”
Group and segment performance Group comparable
sales were flat on the back of 11% growth in Q3 2023 and
deterioration in demand in China. We delivered growth in all other
regions and from an increase in royalty income. China remains a
fundamentally attractive growth market for Philips in the long
term, with market conditions expected to remain uncertain.
Adjusted EBITA margin improved 160 basis points from 10.2% to
11.8%, driven by a strong step-up in gross margin from innovations,
productivity actions and higher royalty income. Free cash flow was
EUR 22 million in the quarter, driven by higher earnings, offset by
working capital outflows.
Comparable order intake in the quarter declined 2% due to China,
with solid order intake growth in Diagnosis & Treatment,
particularly in the US. Year-to-date comparable order intake grew
1%, including China.
Diagnosis & Treatment comparable sales
decreased 1%, on the back of 14% growth in Q3 2023, with solid
growth outside of China. Adjusted EBITA margin was 12.6%.
Connected Care comparable sales were flat, with
growth in Enterprise Informatics and Sleep & Respiratory Care
offset by a low- single-digit decline in Monitoring, on the back of
high-teens growth in Q3 2023. Adjusted EBITA margin improved from
3.7% to 7.3%.
Personal Health comparable sales decreased 5%
due to a double-digit decline in China, more than offsetting a
robust performance elsewhere. Adjusted EBITA margin was 16.5%.
Productivity
Our productivity initiatives are on track and delivered savings
of EUR 188 million in Q3: operating model savings of EUR 54
million, procurement savings of EUR 58 million, and other programs
savings of EUR 76 million. Since 2023, productivity initiatives
delivered savings of over EUR 1.5 billion.
Outlook The significant deterioration in China
demand leads to an updated comparable sales growth outlook range of
0.5-1.5% for the full year 2024. Comparable sales growth outside of
China remains within the 3-5% range. Adjusted EBITA margin is
expected to be around 11.5%, the upper end of the range, with free
cashflow at around EUR 0.9 billion, at the lower end of the
range.
Within an ongoing challenging macro environment, Philips remains
focused on successfully executing its three-year plan to drive
operational improvement and create value with sustainable impact.
The uncertainties signaled in earlier quarters have intensified in
China and are expected to continue.
The outlook excludes the potential impact of the ongoing Philips
Respironics-related legal proceedings, including the investigation
by the US Department of Justice.

release contains inside information within the meaning of Article
7(1) of the EU Market Abuse Regulation. Use of non-IFRS
information In presenting and discussing the Philips
Group’s financial position, operating results and cash flows,
management uses certain non-IFRS financial measures. These non-IFRS
financial measures should not be viewed in isolation as
alternatives to the equivalent IFRS measure and should be used in
conjunction with the most directly comparable IFRS measures.
Non-IFRS 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-IFRS
measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures is contained
in this document. Further information on non-IFRS measures can be
found in the Annual Report 2023. Presentation All
amounts are in millions of euros unless otherwise stated. Due to
rounding, amounts may not add up precisely to totals provided. All
reported data is unaudited. Financial reporting is in accordance
with the accounting policies as stated in the Annual Report 2023.
Prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
current-period presentation; this includes immaterial
organizational changes. Effective Q1 2024, Philips has revised the
order intake policy to reflect the full contract value for software
contracts that start generating revenue within an 18-month horizon,
instead of only the next 18-months-to-revenue horizon. This change
has been implemented to better align with the specific business
model of our software businesses, simplify the order intake
process, and better align with peers. Prior-period comparable order
intake percentages have been restated accordingly. This revision
has not resulted in any material changes to the order intake
percentages for the periods presented. Per share calculations have
been adjusted retrospectively for all periods presented to reflect
the issuance of shares in the second quarter of 2024 in connection
with the 2023 share dividend. *) Non-IFRS financial measure. Refer
