On October 11, 2017, Philips announced that following discussions with the U.S. Department of Justice, the Company is temporarily suspending production of defibrillators for the U.S. market, in order to allow closer inspections and ensure that Philips is in compliance with applicable U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulations.  Philips advised investors that the production halt would likely last until the third quarter of 2018 and could cut earnings before interest and taxes by some 20 million euros ($24 million) in the final quarter of 2017, and by a further 60 million euros in 2018.  On this news, Philips' share price has fallen sharply during intraday trading on October 11, 2017.
