Philips hits new 52-week low after U.S. order intake slips 1% and large Connected Care orders move to Q3
Philips shares hit a 52-week low despite an EPS and revenue beat, as investors focused on weaker order intake and underlying margin pressure once a one-off U.S. tariff refund is excluded. Comparable orders fell 1% due to delayed large Connected Care deals, while Diagnosis & Treatment margins faced inflation, tariffs, and China weakness. Guidance upgrades are largely mechanical from the refund, limiting reassurance on core trends.
