PHILIPS
TO ACQUIRE DIGITAL LIFESTYLE OUTFITTERS, A LEADING SUPPLIER OF ACCESSORIES
FOR MOBILE DEVICES
Amsterdam,
The Netherlands and Charleston, South Carolina – Royal Philips Electronics
(AEX: PHI, NYSE: PHG) today announced that Philips will acquire US-based
Digital Lifestyle Outfitters (DLO) subject to receipt of regulatory approval.
DLO designs, markets and distributes accessories, including docking stations,
FM transmitters, cables and cases for mobile audio-visual devices such
as MP3 and video players. The transaction is expected to close in the second
quarter of 2007, upon which DLO will become part of the Peripherals &
Accessories business unit of Philips’ Consumer Electronics division. No
financial details on the transaction were disclosed.
Between
2003 and 2006, sales in Philips’ Peripherals & Accessories business
unit more than doubled, due to a combination of targeted acquisitions and
organic growth through innovative products and a strong customer focus.
Peripherals and accessories are among the fastest growing and higher-margin
product categories in consumer electronics today, with retailers increasingly
looking to offer these products as part of a complete consumer electronics
portfolio to their customers. Within peripherals and accessories, Philips
sees the mobility, audio and PC domains as strategic growth areas.
Philips’
Green Products achieve sales of over EUR 4 billion
Philips Sustainability Report
2006 shows sharp focus on energy efficient and accessible and affordable
health solutions
Amsterdam, The Netherlands
– On the occasion of publishing the Philips Sustainability Report 2006,
Royal Philips Electronics (NYSE:PHG, AEX:PHI) said that sales of its Green
Products rose to more than EUR 4 billion in 2006. This is the result of
the company’s EcoDesign drive over the past decade and its investment of
more than EUR 400 million in Green Lighting Technologies over the last
five years. Philips will increase this investment by more than EUR 100
million yearly the coming years.
The EUR 4 billion Green
Product sales includes Philips’ latest state-of-the-art lighting technologies,
which offer energy savings averaging at least 30%. The increased lifetime
of these lighting products and their recyclability, result in substantial
waste reduction with an equivalent decrease in the use of natural resources.
Barbara Kux, member of the
Group Management Committee and chair of the Sustainability Board, said:
“Green Products now account for 15% of our total revenue stream. These
products include our top line of Green Flagships, which increased in number
by 24% in 2006. We are also proud that we regained the number 1 position
in the sector leisure goods in the Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes.”

Philips' 2005 Annual Results
Monday, January 23, 2006
Philips reports full-year
net income of EUR 2,868 million
Fourth-quarter net income
of EUR 332 million
Full-year net income increased
to EUR 2,868 million (EUR 2.29 per share), compared to the EUR 2,836 million
(EUR 2.22 per share) reported for 2004.
In-the-quarter net income
amounted to EUR 332 million (EUR 0.28 per share), compared to net income
of EUR 498 million (EUR 0.39 per share) in the corresponding period of
2004, mainly driven by incidental results from unconsolidated companies
and the advancement of a tax charge related to TSMC.
Full-year sales reached
EUR 30,395 million, representing 4% comparable growth compared to 2004
sales of EUR 29,346 million, excluding sales of Mobile Display Systems,
which has been treated as a discontinued operation in both 2004 (EUR973million)
and 2005 (EUR 653 million). Fourth-quarter sales increased to EUR9,518million,
6% above Q4 2004. Adjusted for the upward effect of currency movements
and consolidation changes, comparable sales increased by 4%. All five operating
divisions contributed to the comparable sales growth, led by Medical Systems,
Semiconductors and Consumer Electronics.
Income from operations for
full-year 2005 amounted to EUR 1,779 million, a EUR 193 million increase
compared with 2004. In Q4 2005, income from operations amounted to EUR
971 million, compared to EUR 15 million in the same period of 2004. Q4
2004 included a non-cash impairment charge of EUR576million for MedQuist.
Q4 2005 showed significant improvement in income from operations at Semiconductors
and benefited from a EUR 187 million release of a provision for post-retirement
medical benefits, partly offset by charges of EUR 46 million relating to
certain billing issues at MedQuist.
In the quarter, financial
income and expenses resulted in income of EUR23million, compared to income
of EUR 417 million in Q4 2004, which included a EUR 440 million gain on
the sale of shares in Vivendi Universal and ASML.
Income from unconsolidated
companies decreased from EUR 198 million in Q4 2004 to a loss of EUR 70
million, mainly due to charges of EUR 458 million related to LG.Philips
Displays.
Cash flow from operating
activities of EUR1,889million was slightly higher than in Q4 2004. Net
inventories as a percentage of sales increased compared to Q4 2004, largely
due to currency effects.
