2 Safe Harbour Statement This document contains forward-looking statements and information that is, statements related to future, not past, events. These statements may be identified by words such as expects, looks forward to, anticipates, intends, plans, believes, seeks, estimates, will, project or words of similar meaning. Such statements are based on our current expectations and certain assumptions, and are, therefore, subject to certain risks and uncertainties. A variety of factors, many of which are beyond Siemens control, affect our operations, performance, business strategy and results and could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Siemens to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. For us, particular uncertainties arise, among others, from changes in general economic and business conditions (including margin developments in major business areas); the challenges of integrating major acquisitions and implementing joint ventures and other significant portfolio measures; changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates; introduction of competing products or technologies by other companies; lack of acceptance of new products or services by customers targeted by Siemens; changes in business strategy; the outcome of pending investigations and legal proceedings, especially the corruption investigation we are currently subject to in Germany, the United States and elsewhere; the potential impact of such investigations and proceedings on our ongoing business including our relationships with governments and other customers; the potential impact of such matters on our financial statements; as well as various other factors. More detailed information about certain of these factors is contained throughout this report and in our other filings with the SEC, which are available on the Siemens website, and on the SEC's website, Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in the relevant forwardlooking statement as expected, anticipated, intended, planned, believed, sought, estimated or projected. Siemens does not intend or assume any obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements in light of developments which differ from those anticipated. EBITDA (adjusted), Return on capital employed, Free cash flow, Cash conversion and Net debt are Non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of these amounts to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measures is available on our Investor Relations website under Financial Publications, Quarterly Reports. 'Group profit from operations' is reconciled to 'Income before income taxes' of Operations under 'Reconciliation to financial statements' in the table 'Segment Information'.

24 Outlook 2008 Organic revenue growth for the fiscal year will be twice the rate of GDP growth Group Profit from Operations will match prior year s level Income from Continuing Operations will match prior year s level This outlook excludes earnings impacts that may arise from legal and regulatory matters, which are not yet quantifiable, and from measures that may be taken as part of Siemens transformation programs, including SG&A reduction. Within discontinued operations, divestment of the enterprise networking business is expected to result in a substantial loss.

27 Reconciliation and Definitions for Non-GAAP Measures (I) Group profit from Operations is reconciled to Income before income taxes of Operations under Reconciliation to financial statements on the table Segment Information. See our Financial Publications at our Investor Relations website under Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) (adjusted) is Income from continuing operations before income taxes less Financial income (expense), net and Income (loss) from investments accounted for using the equity method, net. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (adjusted) is EBIT before Depreciation and Amortization, defined as amortization and impairments of intangible assets depreciation and impairments of property, plant and equipment. Group profit is reconciled to EBIT and EBITDA on the table Segment Information Analysis (II). See our Financial Publications at our Investor Relations website under Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) is a measure of how capital invested in the Company or the Group yields competitive returns. For the Company, ROCE is calculated as Net income (before interest) divided by average Capital employed (CE). Net income (before interest) is defined as Net income excluding Other interest income (expense), net and excluding taxes on Other interest income (expense), net. Taxes on Other interest income (expense), net are calculated in simplified form by applying the current tax rate which can be derived from the Consolidated Statements of Income, to Other interest income (expense), net. CE is defined as Total equity plus Long-term debt plus Short-term debt and current maturities of long-term debt minus Cash and cash equivalents. Because Siemens reports discontinued operations, Siemens also calculates ROCE on a continuing operations basis, using Income from continuing operations rather than Net income. For purposes of this calculation, CE is adjusted by the net figure for Assets classified as held for disposal included in discontinued operations less Liabilities associated with assets classified as held for disposal included in discontinued operations. For the Operations Groups, ROCE is calculated as Group profit divided by average Net capital employed (NCE). Group profit for the Operations Groups is principally defined as earnings before financing interest, certain pension costs and income taxes. Group profit excludes various categories of items which are not allocated to the Groups since the Managing Board does not regard such items as indicative of the Groups performance. NCE for the Operations Groups is defined as total assets less tax assets, provisions and non-interest bearing liabilities other than tax liabilities. Average (Net) Capital employed for the fiscal year is calculated as a 'five-point average' obtained by averaging the (Net) Capital employed at the beginning of the first quarter plus the final figures for all four quarters of the fiscal year. For the calculation of the average during for the quarters, see below: Page 27 April 2008 Q Analyst Conference Copyright Siemens AG All rights reserved.

28 Reconciliation and Definitions for Non-GAAP Measures (II) Average calculation for CE*: NCE for Operations Groups Year-to-Date Q1 2 Point average: (CE ending Q4 Prior year + CE ending Q1) / 2 Q2 3 Point average: (CE ending Q4 Prior year + CE ending Q1 + CE ending Q2) / 3 Q3 4 Point average: (CE ending Q4 Prior year + CE ending Q1 + CE ending Q2 + CE ending Q3) / 4 Quarter-to-Date Q1 2 Point average: (CE ending Q4 Prior year + CE ending Q1) / 2 Q2 2 Point average: (CE ending Q1 + CE ending Q2) / 2 Q3 2 Point average: (CE ending Q2 + CE ending Q3) / 2 Q4 2 Point average: (CE ending Q3 + CE ending Q4) / 2 Our cash target is based on the Cash Conversion Rate (CCR), which serves as a target indicator for the Company s or the Group s cash flow. For the Company, CCR is defined as the ratio of Free cash flow to Net income, where Free cash flow equals the Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less Additions to intangible assets and property, plant and equipment. Because Siemens reports discontinued operations, this measure is also shown on a continuing operations basis, using Income from continuing operations, Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities continuing operations and Additions to intangible assets and property, plant and equipment for continuing operations for the calculation. For the Groups, CCR is defined as Free cash flow divided by Group profit. All values needed for the calculation of ROCE and CCR can be obtained from the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Group profit, Net capital employed and Free cash flow for the Company and the Groups can be found on the table Segment information. Our Consolidated Financial Statements are available on our Investor Relations website under Siemens ties a portion of its executive incentive compensation to achieving economic value added (EVA) targets. EVA measures the profitability of a business (using Group profit for the Operating Groups and Income before income taxes for the Financing and Real estate businesses as a base) against the additional cost of capital used to run a business (using NCE for the Operating Groups and risk-adjusted equity for the Financing and Real estate businesses as a base). A positive EVA indicates that a business has earned more than its cost of capital, and is therefore defined as value-creating. A negative EVA indicates that a business is earning less than its cost of capital and is therefore defined as value-destroying. Other organizations that use EVA may define and calculate EVA differently. Page 28 April 2008 Q Analyst Conference Copyright Siemens AG All rights reserved.

29 Reconciliation and Definitions for Non-GAAP Measures (III) Our capital structure target is based on an Adjusted industrial net debt divided by EBITDA (adjusted). For the calculation of Adjusted industrial net debt, we subtract from Net debt (defined as Long-term debt plus Short-term debt and current maturities of long-term debt less Cash and cash equivalents less Available-for-sale financial assets) (1) SFS debt excluding SFS internally purchased receivables and (2) 50% of the nominal amount of our hybrid bond; and add/subtract (3) Funded status of Pension benefits, (4) Funded status of Other post-employment benefits; and add (5) Credit guarantees. The components of Net debt are available on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, SFS debt less internally purchased receivables is available in our Management Discussion & Analysis under Capital Resources and Requirements. The Funded status of our principle pension plans and Other post-employment benefits, the amount of credit guarantees and the nominal amount of our Hybrid bond is available in the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements. To measure Siemens achievement of the goal to grow at twice the rate of global GDP, we use GDP on real basis (i.e. excluding inflation and currency translation effects) with data provided by Global Insight Inc. and compare those growth rates with growth rates of our revenue (under IFRS). In accordance with IFRS, our revenue numbers are not adjusted by inflation and currency translation effects. Return on equity (ROE) margin for SFS was calculated as SFS Income before income taxes divided by the allocated equity for SFS. Allocated equity for SFS for the financial year 2007 is billion. The allocated equity for SFS is determined and influenced by the respective credit ratings of the rating agencies and by the expected size and quality of its portfolio of leasing and factoring assets and equity investments and is determined annually. This allocation is designed to cover the risks of the underlying business and is in line with common credit risk management standards in banking. The actual risk profile of the SFS portfolio is monitored and controlled monthly and is evaluated against the allocated equity. Group profit from Operations, EBIT (adjusted), EBITDA (adjusted), ROCE, CCR, EVA and Adjusted industrial net debt are or may be Non-GAAP financial measures as defined in relevant rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Our management takes these measures, among others, into account in its management of our business, and for this reason we believe that investors may find it useful to consider these measures in their evaluation of our performance. None of Group profit from Operations, EBIT (adjusted), EBITDA (adjusted), ROCE and EVA should be viewed in isolation as an alternative to IFRS net income for purposes of evaluating our results of operations; CCR should not be viewed in isolation as an alternative to measures reported in our IFRS cash flow statement for purposes of evaluating our cash flows; and Adjusted industrial net debt should not be viewed in isolation as an alternative to liabilities reported in our IFRS balance sheet for purposes of evaluating our financial condition.
