| Debt | 18Debt Accounting policies Debt Debt is initially measured at fair value net of directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequently, debt is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. Debt is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or has expired. Lease liabilities Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the lease payments due over the lease term, generally discounted using the incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Lease liabilities are remeasured in case of modifications or reassessments of the lease. Philips has a USD 2.5 billion Commercial Paper Program and a EUR 1 billion committed standby revolving credit facility that can be used for general group purposes. As of December 31, 2025, Philips did not have any loans outstanding under either facility. These facilities do not have a material adverse change clause, have no financial covenants and no credit-rating-related acceleration possibilities. Philips established a Euro Medium-Term Note (EMTN) program, a framework that facilitates the issuance of notes for a total amount up to EUR 10 billion. In 2025, Philips issued two new tranches under the program for a total of EUR 1 billion fixed rate notes due 2030 and 2035 for general corporate purposes, including the refinancing of the 2026 EUR and USD Bonds, and tendered on outstanding 2026, 2027, 2028 and 2029 EUR Bonds. As of December 31, 2025, Philips has EUR 4.6 billion (2024: EUR 3.7 billion) fixed rate notes outstanding under the EMTN program. The conditions applicable to all USD-denominated corporate bonds issued by the company in March 2008 and March 2012 (due 2038 and 2042) contain a ‘Change of Control Triggering Event’. If the company would experience such an event with respect to a series of corporate bonds the company might be required to offer to purchase the bonds that are still outstanding at a purchase price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. Furthermore, the conditions applicable to the EUR-denominated corporate bonds issued since 2018 contain a similar provision (‘Change of Control Put Event’). Upon the occurrence of such an event, the company might be required to redeem or purchase any of such bonds at their principal amount together with interest accrued. Philips’ outstanding long-term debt does not contain financial covenants. As of December 31, 2025, debt includes forward contracts of EUR 260 million (nominal value) relating to the repurchase of shares to cover long-term incentive and employee stock purchase plans (2024: EUR 142 million), with maturity dates in the fourth quarter of 2026 (EUR 141 million) and in 2027 (EUR 119 million).

During 2025, the weighted average interest rate on the bank borrowings was 6.3% (2024: 9.3%). This decrease was mainly driven by lower interest rate environments across various countries globally.
