Frans van Houten, CEO:
“Philips heeft in het tweede kwartaal van 2016 solide resultaten geboekt. De vergelijkbare omzet is met 3% gegroeid en onze HealthTech-activiteiten hebben een sterke groei van 5% gerealiseerd. Dankzij ons transformatieprogramma Accelerate! zijn de operationele resultaten van de meeste onderdelen verder verbeterd, terwijl we blijven investeren in kwaliteit en innovatie.
Ik ben verheugd over de succesvolle notering van Philips Lighting aan de Euronext in Amsterdam per eind mei. Met deze gedenkwaardige stap kan Philips zich nu volledig richten op de geweldige kansen op het gebied van gezondheidstechnologie, terwijl voor Philips Lighting hetzelfde geldt in de groeiende markt voor energiezuinige verlichting. Philips heeft momenteel een meerderheidsbelang in Philips Lighting, maar streeft ernaar dit in de komende jaren volledig te verkopen.
Onze vooruitzichten voor 2016 blijven ongewijzigd, waarbij we verwachten dat de resultaten in de tweede helft van het jaar verder verbeteren. We zijn echter bezorgd over de toegenomen risico's door volatiliteit in een aantal markten.”
“Our HealthTech portfolio grew 5%, driven by businesses in Personal Health and Connected Care & Health Informatics. We were ableto drive further operational improvements while keeping up our significant investments in quality and innovation, including in healthinformatics, wearable patient monitoring solutions and digital pathology.
Equipment-order intake remained uneven and fell by 1% on a currency-comparable basis in the quarter. However, we expect good order intake growth in the second half of the year.”
The Personal Health businesses grew by 9% on a comparable basis, with the Adjusted EBITA margin improving by 170 basis points.The Diagnosis & Treatment businesses posted comparable sales growth of 1%, and the Adjusted EBITA margin improved by 20 basispoints.

Forward-looking statements and other important information
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, future developments in Philips’ organic business and the completion of acquisitions and divestments. 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. 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. 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 2015. 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 2015. Independent valuations may have been obtained to support management’s determination of fair values.

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 and the state of international capital markets as they may affect the timing and nature of the dispositions by Philips of its interests in the Lighting business and the combined Lumileds and Automotive businesses. As a result, Philips’ actual future results may differ materially from the plans, goals and expectations set forth in such forward-looking statements.
