Longleaf Partners International Fund Southeastern Asset Management, Inc. | “Koninklijke Philips – We initiated a position in Dutch medical equipment manufacturer Philips during the quarter… Philips reached the point where it traded at a significant discount to its international peers… New CEO Roy Jakobs has taken decisive action… We believe Philips is past the trough in terms of underlying performance, but this is not yet evident in the reported numbers, giving us the opportunity to invest ahead of the operational improvement. BSD Analysis: Philips is a high-quality, focused MedTech titan whose stock is an asymmetric recovery bet on its successful pivot to a specialized healthcare technology pure-play. The core thesis is driven by strong order intake, accelerating sales growth, and robust margin expansion. The company's unassailable moat is its focus on AI-powered innovations across its high-growth segments, including the launch of 26 FDA-cleared cardiovascular ultrasound AI applications. Management is executing a ruthless cost cleanup (EUR 2.5 billion productivity program), which is driving margins toward the upper end of its guidance. Despite navigating significant recall-related settlements, the underlying business is structurally sound, leveraging long-term Enterprise Monitoring as a Service (EMaaS) partnerships to ensure recurring revenue.” | BULL | Q2 2025 Jul 1, 2025 | View Pitch |
