(RTTNews) - Signify N.V. (LIGHT.AS, SFFYF) on Friday posted lower second quarter net income, impacted mainly by lower operating income and higher adjusted items. Sales also declined from last year. Looking ahead, the company reiterated its sales outlook for fiscal 2025.

The Dutch lighting corporation reported second-quarter net income of 57 million euros, down 10.6 percent from 63 million euros in the same period last year. On a per share basis, basic earnings declined to 0.44 euro from 0.49 euro in the year-ago quarter.

During the three-month period, sales came in at 1.42 billion euros, a 4.4 percent drop from 1.48 billion euros in the second quarter of 2024. The company said that sales were impacted by a negative currency effect of 3 percent, mainly related to the depreciation of the US Dollar and Chinese Yuan.
