Philips announces exchange ratio for 2014 dividend in shares

Amsterdam, the Netherlands – Royal Philips (NYSE:PHG, AEX:PHIA) today announced that the exchange ratio for the dividend in shares for the year 2014 has been determined. The exchange ratio is 1 new common share for every 30.5329 existing common shares. This ratio was based on the volume weighted average price on NYSE Euronext Amsterdam of June 3, 4 and 5, 2015, of EUR 24.3963 and was calculated in a manner that the gross dividend in shares is approximately equal to the gross dividend in cash.

Both the dividend in cash and the dividend in shares will be made payable to shareholders from June 10, 2015. Dividend in shares is subject to 15% dividend withholding tax, but only in respect of the par value of the shares (EUR 0.20 per share).
