Siemens AG said Thursday it could see a non-cash impairment of about EUR2.8 billion ($2.92 billion) on its investment in Siemens Energy AG.
Siemens AG said that, with the closing share price of Siemens Energy on Germany's Xetra, the market value of Siemens AG's 35% investment in Siemens Energy is significantly below the book value. Siemens Energy shares Thursday closed at EUR13.99, down about 4.3%.
This discrepancy would lead to an impairment of the Siemens Energy investment, Siemens AG said, for a total non-cash impact on net income of about EUR2.8 billion in the third quarter.
Siemens AG expects to release third-quarter results on August 11.
