Consumer lifestyle and lighting margins down sharply due to weaker consumer demand, price pressure and higher investment. Philips said due to these reasons they are going to axe 4,500 jobs in a EUR800 million cost cutting program. They do not also expect their performance to improve in the near-term. They also said that there are in intense negotiations to close TV joint-venture deal.
