2008 nancial performance
The sector Group Management & Services comprises
the activities of the corporate center including Philips’
global management and sustainability programs, as well
as country and regional overhead costs, and costs of
pension and other postretirement benet plans.
Additionally, the global service units such as Philips
General Purchasing, real estate, and shared nancial
services are reported in this sector.
In 2008, the EBITA of corporate & regional overheads
was EUR 15 million lower than 2007, mainly due to higher
restructuring charges.
Brand campaign investments in 2008 were EUR 47 million
lower than 2007 due to lower spending and higher cost
reduction initiatives.
The EBITA of service units, pensions, and other was
impacted by a EUR 239 million asbestos-related settlement
charge and higher restructuring costs. Pension and other
postretirement benet costs were in line with 2007.
Cash ows before nancing activities resulted in a
EUR 1,824 million inow in 2008, compared to an
inow of EUR 5,253 million in 2007. 2008 included
cash receipts related to the sale of shares in TSMC
(EUR 1,831 million) and LG Display (EUR 670 million)
whereas 2007 saw EUR 5.4 billion of cash proceeds
from the sale of TSMC and LG Display.
