  • KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS ELECTRS Profile

    Royal Philips Electronics has its royal fingers in lots of different pies. It makes consumer electronics, including TVs, VCRs, DVD players, and fax machines. But it also makes light bulbs (#1 worldwide), electric shavers (#1) and other personal care appliances, medical systems, and silicon systems solutions. Consumer electronics account for the largest portion of the company's sales. Philips has been dumping noncore businesses -- such as its stakes in TSMC, LG Display, and music giant PolyGram -- while acquiring and forming joint ventures in its primary lines of business, including medical equipment development, energy-efficient lighting, and lifestyle products.
