Within this combined management report, we provide finan-
cial measures for our four Sectors and for two Businesses, each
combining two Divisions within a Sector as well as for eight Di-
visions of our Sectors. These financial measures include: new
orders, revenue, profit and profit margin. Divisions within a
Sector may do business with each other, leading to corre-
sponding new orders and rev
enue. Such orders and revenues
are only eliminated on a Sector
level. Furthermore, our report-
able segments may do business with each other, leading to
corresponding new order and revenue. Such orders and reve-
nues are eliminated on the Siemens level within Eliminations,
Corporate Treasury and other reconciling items and are not in-
cluded in new orders and revenue with external customers
(external orders and external revenue, respectively) reported
in this document. Free cash flow and further information is re-
ported for each reportable segment in the Notes to Consolidat-
ed Financial Statements.
For information related to the definition of these financial
measures and to the reconciliation of segment financial mea-
sures to the Consolidated Financial Statements, see .

On a geographic basis, Siemens is subdivided into  Regional
Clusters, which are in turn assigned to one of our three reporting
regions. We report financial measures for these three regions:
In addition, we report financial information at group level
for certain major countries within each region, including
Germany (within the region Europe, C.I.S., Africa, Middle East),
the U.S. (within the region Americas), and China and India
(within the region Asia, Australia).
