First Quarter Results FY 2019

• Orders increased 13% on a comparable basis, excluding currency translation and portfolio effects, and revenue grew 2% compared to Q1 FY 2018
• On a nominal basis, orders rose 12%, to €25.2 billion and revenue was up 1%, to €20.1 billion; the book-to-bill ratio was 1.25 
• Adjusted EBITA for Industrial Business was lower, at €2.1 billion, due mainly to a decline in Power and Gas; Industrial Business Adjusted EBITA margin at 10.2%, held back by severance charges amounting to 0.4 percentage points 
• Net income came in at €1.1 billion, resulting in basic EPS of €1.26, which was burdened by €0.08 from severance charges; the change year-over-year is due to two substantial positive factors outside of Industrial Business in the prior-year period: a gain from the sale of shares in OSRAM Licht AG and sharply lower income tax expenses related to U.S. tax reform

Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the rail traction drives business was transferred from the Process Industries and Drives Division to the Mobility Division. Prior-period amounts are presented on a comparable basis.
