Earnings Release and Financial Results Q3 FY 2022: Strong top line momentum and solid execution – outstanding Free cash flow
“We captured significant opportunities in a market environment with ongoing high demand. Our strong top line momentum
continued, with a comparable order growth of 20 percent since the beginning of fiscal 2022. This shows: Our business is
attractive and grew once again. We have the right offerings and the right strategy to be successful even in uncertain times,” said
Roland Busch, President and Chief Executive Officer of Siemens AG. “We made significant progress as a focused technology
company in the third quarter with the launch of our open digital business platform, Siemens Xcelerator, accelerating the digital
transformation of our customers. We also acquired Brightly Software, an outstanding software-as-a-service player in the building
space, which perfectly complements our leading position in smart buildings.”

transformation of our customers. We also acquired Brightly Software, an outstanding software-as-a-service player in the building
space, which perfectly complements our leading position in smart buildings.”
“Our continued top line momentum translated into a record, high-quality and high-quantity order backlog of €99 billion. We
again achieved outstanding Free cash flow of €2.3 billion, which further underscored our financial strength. In addition, we
consistently and successfully implemented our portfolio optimization and sharply accelerated our share buyback program,” said
Ralf P. Thomas, Chief Financial Officer of Siemens AG.
Orders for the third quarter climbed 7% year-over-year, reaching €22.0 billion despite substantially lower volume from large orders
in Mobility, while revenue rose 11% year-over-year, to €17.9 billion, for a book-to-bill ratio of 1.23
Orders rose 1% and revenue grew 4% on a comparable basis, excluding currency translation and portfolio effects
Profit Industrial Business was €2.9 billion with a profit margin of 17.0%, both benefitting substantially from a €0.7 billion
divestment gain in Mobility
The Net loss of €1.5 billion for the quarter was due primarily to a previously disclosed nontax-deductible impairment of the stake
in Siemens Energy recorded in the amount of €2.7 billion; corresponding basic earnings per share (EPS) were a negative €2.06
and EPS before purchase price allocation accounting (EPS pre PPA) were a negative €1.85 each including a negative €3.37 per
share related to the impairment
Again excellent Free cash flow from continuing and discontinued operations, reaching €2.3 billion for the quarter
At the beginning of Q4 FY 2022, Siemens closed the sales of its stake in Valeo Siemens eAutomotive GmbH (Valeo Siemens) and
the mail and parcel-handling business of Siemens Logistics, respectively, which subsequently resulted in cash inflows totaling
€1.5 billion; such inflows are not included in Free cash flow
Third quarter of fiscal year 2022
Growth opportunities in many key markets for Siemens despite a
continuing complex macroeconomic environment influenced by
sanctions on Russia, high inflation and effects associated with the
coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19). Continued avoidance of major
disruptions from supply chain risks associated with electronics
components, raw materials and logistics
Substantial order growth at Digital Industries and Smart
Infrastructure; sharply lower volume from large orders in Mobility
which in Q3 FY 2021 won a €2.8 billion order in the U.S
Revenue up in all industrial businesses, led by significant growth in
Digital Industries and Smart Infrastructure
Currency translation effects added five percentage points to order
and six percentage points to revenue growth; portfolio effects
added one percentage point each to order and revenue growth
Profit Industrial Business rose due to a €0.7 billion gain from the
sale of Yunex Traffic at Mobility and improvements at Smart
Infrastructure and Digital Industries on continued growth
momentum in their major market segments; impairments and
other charges related to winding down business activities in Russia
within Industrial Business were €0.1 billion, mostly burdening
Mobility
Reconciliation to Consolidated Financial Statements included a
€2.7 billion impairment of the stake in Siemens Energy AG and
€0.4 billion in Russia-related impacts; Siemens Financial Services
also recorded Russia-related impacts, amounting to €0.1 billion
The Net loss was due to the nontax-deductible impairment of the
stake in Siemens Energy AG and the €0.6 billion in Russia-related
impacts mentioned above
Again excellent Free cash flow for the Siemens Group; Free cash
flow from Industrial Business was €2.5 billion, slightly above the
level in Q3 FY 2021; in addition, the sale of Yunex Traffic resulted
in cash inflows of €0.9 billion which were not part of Free cash flow
ROCE turned negative due to the Net loss
Outlook
For the Siemens Group we continue to expect 6% to 8% growth in comparable revenue, net of currency translation and portfolio effects,
and a book-to-bill ratio above 1.
Digital Industries continues to expect to achieve comparable revenue growth of 9% to 12% for fiscal 2022 and a profit margin of 19% to
21%.
Smart Infrastructure continues to expect comparable revenue growth of 6% to 9% for fiscal 2022 and a profit margin of 12% to 13%.
Mobility continues to expect revenue for fiscal 2022 on the prior-year level. The profit margin is now expected to be 7.5% to 8.5%
(previously 10% to 10.5%).
We continue to expect profitable growth of our Industrial Business to drive basic EPS from net income before purchase price allocation
accounting (EPS pre PPA). Following the €2.7 billion non-cash impairment of our stake in Siemens Energy AG in the third quarter of the
fiscal year, the guidance must be adjusted to include the corresponding earnings impact of €3.37 per share, resulting in a range for EPS
pre PPA of €5.33 to €5.73. This range represents our original guidance for EPS pre PPA of €8.70 to €9.10, excluding the impairment.
This outlook excludes burdens from legal and regulatory matters.
