Related party transactions [abstract] |
Disclosure of related party [text block] | #### Related-party transactions In the normal course of business, Philips purchases and sells goods and services from/to various related parties in which Philips typically holds between 20% and 50% equity interest and has significant influence. These transactions are generally conducted with terms comparable to transactions with third parties. From November 28, 2017, Philips lost control over Signify but still had significant influence. This has resulted in Signify becoming a non-consolidated related party which is reported in the table below for the time period January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018. Philips and Signify have several agreements in place which impact the related party balances disclosed. There is a Transitional Service Level Agreement, based on which Philips provides Signify with services such as IT, real estate and human resources among others. Additionally, a Trademark License Agreement was signed in which Signify uses the Philips brand name. From December 31, 2018 Philips has no longer significant influence over Signify and therefore Signify ceased to be a related party. As a result, receivables from and payables to related parties in relation Signify are not included in the table below. For details of these parties in which Philips typically holds between 20% and 50% equity interest, refer to the Investments in associates section of Interests in entities. For details on the Philips ownership changes in Signify, refer to Discontinued operations and assets classified as held for sale.
