Frans van Houten, CEO

 

« Nous avons enregistré des résultats mitigés pour le groupe au troisième trimestre. Nous avons connu une forte croissance des ventes de 6 % à périmètre comparable, portée par nos produits et solutions innovants dans l'ensemble de nos secteurs. Cela s'est traduit par une croissance à un chiffre moyen des ventes à périmètre comparable dans nos zones plus matures et une croissance à un chiffre élevé dans nos zones en développement, dont une croissance à deux chiffres en Chine.

 

Les commandes sont restées stables à périmètre comparable grâce à une forte croissance de 11 % au troisième trimestre 2018 qui reflète l'inégalité de la dynamique des commandes et la faiblesse en Amérique du Nord. Au cours des douze derniers mois, les commandes ont augmenté de 5 % à périmètre comparable.

 

La marge d'EBITA ajusté pour les secteurs « Diagnosis & Treatment » et « Personal Health » a continué d'augmenter. Cependant, comme nous l'avions annoncé dans notre communiqué du 10 octobre 2019, la marge d'EBITA ajusté du secteur « Connected Care » a diminué à 11,3 % en raison de l'augmentation des fluctuations liées aux tarifs et d'un retard de l'impact des mesures d'atténuation, de la diminution de la production en usine et de l'impact de la gamme de produits concurrentiels. L'EBITA ajusté du groupe a également été touché par la baisse du résultat des licences dans le secteur « Others ».

 

Sur l'ensemble de l'année 2019, nous continuons à prévoir une croissance de l'ordre de 4 à 6 %. Nous prévoyons une amélioration de la marge d'EBITA ajusté de 10 à 20 points de base vu les fluctuations générales et la tendance de la performance du secteur « Connected Care » sur laquelle nous nous penchons. Pour 2020, nous prévoyons une croissance des ventes entre 4 à 6 % à périmètre comparable et une amélioration d'environ 100 points de base de la marge d'EBITA ajusté. »

Reporting segment performance

 

The Diagnosis & Treatment businesses recorded 9% comparable sales growth, with double-digit growth in Ultrasound and high-single-digit growth in Diagnostic Imaging and Image-Guided Therapy. Comparable order intake was in line with Q3 2018. The Adjusted EBITA margin increased 2.1 percentage points to 14.0%, driven by sales growth and productivity, partly offset by the impact of tariffs.

 

Comparable sales in the Connected Care businesses increased 5%, with mid-single-digit growth in Monitoring & Analytics and Sleep & Respiratory Care. Comparable order intake was in line with Q3 2018. The Adjusted EBITA margin decreased 4.5 percentage points to 11.3%, as outlined above.

 

The Personal Health businesses delivered comparable sales growth of 6%, with double-digit growth in Oral Healthcare and high-single-digit growth in Domestic Appliances. The Adjusted EBITA margin increased 0.3 percentage points to 14.7%, mainly due to sales growth, partly offset by investments and the impact of tariffs.

 

Philips’ ongoing focus on innovation and strategic partnerships resulted in the following highlights in the quarter:

 

  • Philips Reinforcing its global leadership in image-guided therapy, Philips launched its highly successful Azurion platform in China, following clearance from the National Medical Products Administration. Moreover, in the US, Philips launched the longer 150 mm and 200 mm versions of its Stellarex low-dose drug-coated balloons to broaden treatment options for peripheral artery disease patients.
  • Philips’ app-based, mobile Lumify ultrasound solution delivered double-digit comparable sales and order intake growth, as it continues to set the industry standard by consistently delivering what customers need to provide the best care for their patients at the point of care – diagnostic clarity, reliability and continuous scanning, with a lightweight, replaceable transducer.
  • Philips introduced an industry-first ‘Tube for Life’ guarantee on its new Incisive CT imaging platform in North America following its successful introduction in Europe and Asia. The new CT platform integrates innovations in imaging, workflow, and lifecycle management, helping healthcare providers with smart clinical decision-making, increased efficiency and improved experience for patients and staff.
  • Philips further expanded its Enterprise Diagnostic Informatics portfolio with the completion of the acquisition of Carestream Health’s Healthcare Information Systems business. Adding a state-of-the-art cloud-based imaging data platform, Philips’ offering now includes advanced Vendor Neutral Archive solutions, diagnostic and enterprise viewers, interactive multimedia reporting, AI-enabled clinical, operational and business analytics tools, as well as tele-radiology and diagnostic patient management services.
  • Reinforcing its leadership in patient monitoring solutions, Philips introduced the next-generation IntelliVue MX750 and MX850 bedside patient monitor platforms in Europe. These feature an extensive range of measurements and analytics, as well as new cybersecurity capabilities. Moreover, Philips signed multi-year enterprise patient monitoring agreements with the Kantonsspital Frauenfeld (Switzerland) and the University Clinic of Bonn (Germany) to improve workflow and clinical outcomes in these hospitals.
  • Philips teamed up with Walgreens, one of the largest drugstore chains in the US, to integrate the clinically validated Philips SmartSleep Analyzer with the Walgreens Find Care platform, which helps connect Walgreens’ millions of mobile and online visitors to healthcare services. Walgreens Find Care users are now able to use Philips’ tool to help identify the potential reasons contributing to their sleep issues and connect to sleep diagnostics, guidance, products and solutions.
  • Further broadening its product range in oral care, Philips has rolled out its connected Philips Sonicare ExpertClean globally. The new smart power toothbrush delivers superior oral care results with its sonic technology and deep clean brushing mode.

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 Adjusted EBITA; future restructuring, acquisition-related and other costs; 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.

 

These factors include but are not limited to: global economic and business conditions; political instability, including developments within the European Union such as Brexit, with adverse impact on financial markets; 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 and proceedings; increased healthcare regulation; changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates; changes in foreign currency import or export controls; future changes in tax rates and regulations, including trade tariffs; pension costs and actuarial assumptions; changes in raw materials prices; changes in employee costs; the ability to identify and successfully complete 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; cyber-attacks, breaches of cybersecurity; political, economic and other developments in countries where Philips operates and 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 2018.

 

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-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 2018.

 

Use of fair value information

 

In presenting the Philips Group’s 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 2018. In certain cases independent valuations are obtained to support management’s determination of fair values.

 

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 2018, except for IFRS 16 lease accounting, which is implemented per January 1, 2019.

 

As announced on January 10, 2019, Philips has realigned the composition of its reporting segments effective as of January 1, 2019. The most notable changes are the shifts of the Sleep & Respiratory Care business from the Personal Health segment to the renamed Connected Care segment and most of the Healthcare Informatics business from the renamed Connected Care segment to the Diagnosis & Treatment segment. Accordingly, the comparative figures have been restated. The restatement has been published on the Philips Investor Relations website and can be accessed here.
