[Global News] Profitable growth in third
quarter – outlook confirmed
Siemens continued its profitable growth trajectory again in the
third quarter. Overall, the company clearly increased its net income and profit
margin and thus demonstrated its financial strength once again. With a
sustained large order backlog, which totaled €113 billion in Q3, and a
book-to-bill ratio greater than 1, Siemens is optimally equipped for the
future. As a result, the Siemens Group confirms its outlook for fiscal 2024,
whereby comparable revenue growth – that is, excluding currency translation and
portfolio effects – at Group level (in the range of 4 percent to 8 percent) and
the profit margin at Digital Industries (18 percent to 21 percent) will be at
the lower end of their respective target ranges. The profit margin at Smart
Infrastructure is expected to be at the upper end of its target range (16
percent to 17 percent).

In the third quarter, most industrial businesses experienced
higher order volumes, with Digital Industries and Smart Infrastructure both
seeing double-digit increases due to significant contract wins. In contrast,
Mobility saw a sharp decline in large order volumes compared to the same period
last year, when it achieved record-high order intake. Revenue growth was
prominently driven by Smart Infrastructure, which reported a notable
double-digit increase, along with additional contributions came from Siemens
Healthineers and Mobility.
“We grew profitably in the third quarter, continuing to benefit
from the high demand in electrification. Another growth driver was our
particularly strong industrial software business, which won several large
license contracts. The industrial automation business remains challenging. We
confirm our company’s full-year outlook,” said Roland Busch, President and
Chief Executive Officer of Siemens AG.
Financial Highlights:
Third-quarter revenue rose 5% on a comparable basis, excluding
currency translation and portfolio effects; comparable orders came in 15% lower
than in Q3 FY 2023, which included a record-high level of orders in Mobility
On a nominal basis, revenue increased 4% to €18.9 billion;
orders were down 16% at €19.8 billion but exceeded revenue for a book-tobill
ratio of 1.05, and the order backlog remained on a high level at €113 billion
Profit Industrial Business rose 11% to €3.0 billion, and the
profit margin reached 16.5%, well above the prior-year quarter
