Accounting policies
Receivables are initially measured at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortized cost if held
within a business model with the objective to collect the contractual cash flows, or at fair value through OCI if
held within a business model with the objective of both holding to collect contractual cash flows and selling.
Receivables are measured less any impairment losses.
Receivables are de-recognized when the company has transferred substantially all risks and rewards, which
includes transactions in which the company enters into factoring transactions, or if the company does not
retain control over the receivables.

Accounting estimates
Receivables are subject to impairment assessment, which involves estimating expected credit losses. Refer to
Other financial assets for accounting policies on impairment of financial assets.
Non-current receivables
Non-current receivables are associated mainly with customer financing in the Diagnosis & Treatment segment
amounting (net of allowance) to EUR 84 million (2024: EUR 81 million), insurance receivables in the US
amounting to EUR 28 million (2024: EUR 33 million) and income tax receivables amounting to EUR 19 million
(2024: EUR 36 million).
Philips has leasing activities where it acts as lessor. In such arrangements, Philips provides the customer with a
right to use of medical equipment in exchange for a series of payments. Residual values of assets under lease
form an insignificant part of the carrying amount of those assets. Residual values are influenced by asset
market prices and are therefore subject to management estimation. Residual values are at least reassessed on
an annual basis, or more often when necessary. Reassessments are based on a combination of realization of
assets sold, expert knowledge and judgment of local markets. In order to reduce residual value risk exposures
there may be residual value guarantees or purchase options embedded in the customer contract. Credit risk
for lease receivables is reviewed regularly and mitigated, for example, by retaining a security interest in the
leased asset.
The accompanying table sets out a maturity analysis of lease receivables, showing the undiscounted lease
payments to be received after the reporting date.

The allowance for doubtful accounts receivable has been established for expected credit losses and is related
primarily to receivables that are past due. The allowance presented also includes the allowance for Non-
current customer finance receivables of EUR 1 million (2024: EUR 8 million). Other movements in the current
period primarily relate to the reclassification of a provision for contractual allowances for certain Connected
Care receivables, as well as the impact of foreign currency remeasurement.
Included in the above balances as of December 31, 2025, are allowances for individually impaired receivables
of EUR 189 million (2024: EUR 239 million).
