NONQUALIFIED STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Stock Purchase Plan Committee of the Philips North America Nonqualified Stock Purchase Plan
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of the Philips North America Nonqualified Stock Purchase Plan (the Plan) as of July 31, 2020 and 2019, the related statements of income (loss) and changes in plan equity for each of the three years in the period ended July 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial condition of the Plan at July 31, 2020 and 2019, and the income (loss) and changes in plan equity for each of the three years in the period ended July 31, 2020, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Plan’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Plan in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
/s/ Ernst & Young LLP
We have served as the Plan’s auditor since 2016.

NONQUALIFIED STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
July 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018
(In thousands, except share and per share amounts)
(1) | Description of the Plan |
The following description of the Philips North America Nonqualified Stock Purchase Plan (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan prospectus for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.
(a) | General |
The Plan is a voluntary stock purchase plan established for eligible employees of certain U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries and affiliates, as defined, of Koninklijke Philips N.V. (the Company), which provides eligible employees with the right to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a discount. The common stock of the Company is quoted on the Euronext and the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
The Plan became effective August 1, 2000 for certain U.S.-based employees. The Plan was amended in November 2007 to include previously excluded executives of certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. The Plan was further amended in December 2007 to permit certain Canada-based employees to participate in the Plan effective October 1, 2008 and in December 2015 to permit employees of Philips Lighting North America Corporation, Genlyte Thomas Group LLC and Strand Lighting, LLC to participate in the Plan as long as these companies remain “affiliates” as defined in the Plan. Effective as of April 1, 2017, the Plan was amended and restated to terminate the participation of these Lighting affiliates as well as to make certain technical and clarifying changes. Effective as of January 1, 2019, the Plan was amended to exclude student employee from Full-Time Employee definition, and to allow the Administrator to automatically sell the shares on the participant’s behalf if no action is taken by the participant within 180 days from the date of termination or retirement. A one-time window from January 1, 2019 to April 1, 2019 was offered to those U.S. participants who terminated or retired prior to January 1, 2019 and are not listed as deceased in the Administrator’s system to sell or transfer the shares within the window.
(b) | Participation |
U.S.-based full-time salaried and hourly employees of certain subsidiaries of the Company, as defined by the Plan, are eligible to participate in the Plan as soon as administratively feasible, and Canada-based full-time employees are eligible after completing 90 days of full-time employment. Employees subject to collective bargaining agreements are eligible to participate upon acceptance of the Plan by their respective union.
(c) | Contributions |
Each year, participants may contribute up to 10% of their cash compensation, as defined by the Plan, through payroll withholdings. In addition to the percentage limitation, contributions may not exceed $20,000 U.S. or Canadian dollars in any calendar year.

NONQUALIFIED STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
July 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018
(In thousands, except share and per share amounts)
The cost of shares to participants equals 85% of the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the last day of the applicable purchase period on which stocks are traded on the NYSE. The 15% discount between the fair value of the shares purchased and the cost to the participants represents employer cash contributions that are used, together with the participant contributions, to purchase whole and fractional shares of the Company’s common stock at the end of each purchase period (a calendar quarter).
The shares are held by Computershare Trust Company, N.A. for U.S.-based participants and by Computershare Trust Company Canada for Canada-based participants.
(d) | Vesting |
All contributions and common stock purchased are 100% vested.
(e) | Dividends |
The Plan provides that the Company is entitled in its sole discretion to determine whether any dividend on any common shares issued pursuant to the Plan is paid in cash or shares. Dividends paid in cash are declared by the Company in Euros, and are paid to participants in U.S. dollars converted at the U.S. Dollar/Euro rate fixed by the European Central Bank on a date announced by the Company. Dividends paid in cash, net of applicable Dutch taxes withheld, are reinvested into the participant’s account and used to purchase additional common shares at the prevailing market price during the next purchase period. There is no discount applied to shares purchased through the reinvested dividends.
(f) | Plan Restrictions |
A participant may sell any shares held in their account at any time without penalty.
(g) | Plan Termination |
The Company may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. If the Plan is suspended or terminated, payroll deductions will terminate and unapplied withholdings will be used to purchase common shares or be repaid to participants without interest as soon as practicable following the termination of the Plan.
(h) | Plan Expenses |
Plan expenses are paid by the Company.
(2) | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
(a) | Basis of Accounting |
The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
(b) | Investment Valuation and Income Recognition |
The investment in shares held by the Plan is recorded at fair value, measured at the closing price listed by the NYSE. See note 7 for discussion of fair value.

Notes to Financial Statements
July 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018
(In thousands, except share and per share amounts)
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Realized gains and losses are allocated using the first in, first out method. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
(c) | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(d) | Distributions |
Participants may request distributions in the form of Company common stock or cash. Distributions are recorded at closing market prices on the distribution date. Differences between cost and current value at the time of distribution are included in the financial statements as realized gains or losses.
(3) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
(a) | Adopted in 2019 |
In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASU 2016-01”). ASU 2016-01 amended ASC 825, Financial Instruments, which eliminates the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments not recorded at fair value required under ASC 825. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. ASU No. 2016-01 was adopted by the Plan on August 1, 2019 and did not have a significant impact on the Plan’s financial statements.
In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-09, Codification Improvements (“ASU 2018-09”), which, among other things, amends an illustrative example of a fair value hierarchy disclosure to indicate that a certain type of investment should not always be considered to be eligible to use the net asset value per share practical expedient. Also, it further clarifies that an entity should evaluate whether a readily determinable fair value exists or whether its investments qualify for the net asset value per share practical expedient in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. Adoption of the amended guidance, to be applied prospectively, affects the fair value disclosures, but does not change the fair value measurement of the investments. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. ASU No. 2018-09 was adopted by the Plan on August 1, 2019 and did not have a significant impact on the Plan’s financial statements.
(b) | Pending Adoption |
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurements (“ASU 2018-13”). ASU 2018-13 modifies fair value measurement disclosure requirements. ASU 2018-13 is effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim fiscal periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. Because this ASU changes only the disclosure requirements and not the underlying accounting, the Plan does not expect the adoption of ASU 2018-13 to have a material impact on the Plan’s financial statements.

(5) | Tax Status |
The Plan is a nonqualified employee stock purchase plan for U.S. tax purposes. U.S. participants of the Plan are taxed under Section 83 of the Internal Revenue Code. Upon purchase of the shares, the excess of the closing market price of the shares on the purchase date over the discounted purchase price (85% of the closing price on the last day of the purchase period) is included as ordinary income on the participant’s Form W-2 sent to the Internal Revenue Service. Any additional appreciation on the shares from the date of purchase until the date of subsequent sale will then be taxed to participants as short-term or long-term capital gain or loss, depending on the period of time the shares are held before sale. Participants are required to include as ordinary income the amount of any dividends received on common shares purchased through the Plan.
For Canada-based participants, the 15% discount is taxable as ordinary income and is subject to federal and provincial income taxes as well as Canadian Pension Plan/Quebec Pension Plan taxes. Taxes are automatically withheld from the participants’ next available paycheck following the stock purchase in accordance with their regular tax withholding elections. The ordinary income amount will be included in the T-4 and RL-Slip (Quebec taxpayers only) statement for the year. When participants sell their shares, the Canada Revenue Agency requires participants to report these activities on their annual tax return. Any further gain or loss after the purchase of these shares will be taxed as a capital gain or loss.
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles require plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the plan and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the IRS. The plan administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the plan, and has concluded that as of July 31, 2020, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. The plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.

(6) | Market Risk |
The Plan’s assets are invested in one security, the common stock of the Company. The security is exposed to various risks, such as market risk. Also, the value of the Company’s common stock is dependent upon the performance of the Company and the market’s evaluation of such performance. Recent market conditions have resulted in a high degree of volatility in the equity markets. Due to the level of risk associated with this investment security, and the potential for additional volatility in the equity markets, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the value of the investment security will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the statement of financial condition.
(7) | Fair Value Measurements |
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, provides the framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820 are described as follows:
Level 1 | Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Plan has the ability to access. | |
Level 2 | Inputs to the valuation methodology include: |
• | Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; |
• | Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; |
• | Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; |
• | Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. |
If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 | Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. |
The asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
