Company update related to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak

The impact of the coronavirus outbreak on public life and the industry in China is also affecting the demand for Philips’ consumer portfolio in the country and Philips’ global supply chain. While this is expected to have a negative impact on the financial performance of Philips in the first quarter of 2020, the company cannot quantify the magnitude and duration of such impact at this time given the fluidity of the situation. Philips continues to monitor and assess its business operations daily, and will provide an update as appropriate.

In connection with the COVID-19 outbreak, Philips has implemented precautionary measures and protocols based on recommendations from official health authorities, such as the World Health Organization (WHO). Additionally, Philips has mobilized resources to support the prevention and control of the COVID-19 outbreak. For example, the Philips Foundation with the support of Philips China, has donated medical equipment and supplies to the newly built Thunder God Mountain Hospital in Wuhan city to facilitate the diagnosis and treatment of pneumonia resulting from COVID-19 infections.
