Note 1 relating to NAVTEQ: On July 10, 2008, Nokia completed the acquisition of NAVTEQ Corporation. The map data business of NAVTEQ is a separate reportable segment of Nokia starting from the third quarter 2008. Accordingly, the results of NAVTEQ are not available for the prior periods.

 

Note 2 relating to non-IFRS results: Non-IFRS results exclude special items for all periods. In addition, non-IFRS results exclude intangible asset amortization, other purchase price accounting related items and inventory value adjustments arising from the formation of Nokia Siemens Networks and from all business acquisitions completed after June 30, 2008. For the preceding periods, non-IFRS results exclude such items and adjustments arising from the formation of Nokia Siemens Networks only. More specific information about the exclusions from the non-IFRS results may be found on pages 2 and 3 of this press release.

 

Nokia believes that these non-IFRS financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors regarding Nokia’s performance by excluding the above-described items that may not be indicative of Nokia’s business operating results. These non-IFRS financial measures should not be viewed in isolation or as substitutes to the equivalent IFRS measure(s), but should be used in conjunction with the most directly comparable IFRS measure(s) in the reported results.

 

A reconciliation of the non-IFRS results to our reported results for Q3 2008 and Q3 2007 can be found in the tables on pages 12-16 of this press release.

Note 1: Change in net sales at constant currency excludes the impact of changes in exchange rates in comparison to the Euro, our reporting currency.

 

Note 2: On July 10, 2008, Nokia completed the acquisition of NAVTEQ Corporation. The map data business of NAVTEQ is a separate reportable segment of Nokia starting from the third quarter 2008. Accordingly, the results of NAVTEQ are not available for the prior periods.

 

Nokia’s third quarter 2008 reported operating profit decreased 21% to EUR 1.5 billion, compared with EUR 1.9 billion in the third quarter 2007. Nokia’s third quarter 2008 non-IFRS operating profit decreased 14% to EUR 1.8 billion, compared with EUR 2.0 billion in the third quarter 2007. Nokia’s third quarter 2008 reported operating margin was 12.0% (14.4%). Nokia’s third quarter 2008 non-IFRS operating margin was 14.3% (15.7%).

 

Operating cash flow for the third quarter 2008 was EUR 1.3 billion, compared with EUR 2.0 billion for the third quarter 2007, and total cash and other liquid assets were EUR 7.2 billion at September 30, 2008, compared with EUR 11.8 billion at December 31, 2007. At September 30, 2008, our net debt-equity ratio (gearing) was -18%, compared with -62% at December 31, 2007.

 

On July 24, 2008, Nokia and Qualcomm entered into a new agreement covering various current and future standards and other technologies, and resulting in a settlement of all litigation between the companies. Under the terms of the 15 year agreement, Nokia has been granted a license under all Qualcomm’s patents for use in Nokia’s mobile devices and Nokia Siemens Networks infrastructure equipment. As previously communicated, the financial terms also included a lump-sum cash payment. The payment amounts to EUR 1.7 billion and is

payable by Nokia to Qualcomm during the fourth quarter 2008. The lump-sum payment made to Qualcomm will be expensed quarterly over the term of the agreement. As a result of the agreement with Qualcomm and certain other license agreements concluded during the third quarter 2008, Nokia incurred a slightly positive impact to its gross margin during the quarter, as the royalty provisions earlier recorded well covered the related obligations.

 

Devices & Services

In the third quarter 2008, the total mobile device volume of our Devices & Services group reached 117.8 million units, representing 5.5% year on year growth and a 3% sequential decrease. The overall industry mobile device volume for the same period reached 310 million units based on Nokia’s estimate, representing 8% year on year growth and a 2% sequential increase.

 

Of the total industry mobile device volumes, converged mobile device industry volumes in the third quarter 2008 increased to 44.2 million units, based on Nokia’s estimate, compared with an estimated 31.7 million units in the third quarter 2007. Our own converged mobile device volumes were 15.5 million units in the third quarter 2008, compared with 16.0 million units in the third quarter 2007. We shipped almost 9 million Nokia Nseries and 3 million Nokia Eseries devices during the third quarter 2008.

On September 5, 2008, Nokia updated its mobile device market share outlook by expecting the mobile device market share in the third quarter 2008 to be lower than in the second quarter 2008, in comparison to its earlier expectation for its mobile device market share in the third quarter 2008 to be approximately at the same level sequentially. Based on our preliminary market estimate, Nokia’s mobile device market share for the third quarter 2008 was 38%, compared with 39% in the third quarter 2007 and 40% in the second quarter 2008. Our year on year market share decline was driven primarily by lower market share in Middle East & Africa, Greater China, North America and Europe. Our market share was approximately on the same level year on year in Asia-Pacific, while it was higher in Latin America. Our sequential market share decline was driven primarily by lower market share in Latin America, Europe, Middle East & Africa and Asia-Pacific. Our market share was approximately on the same level sequentially in Greater China and North America. Multiple factors contributed to the sequential decline in our mobile device market share. These included our tactical decision not to meet certain aggressive pricing of some competitors, the overall market competition, including entry markets, and the temporary impact of a slower ramp-up of a mid-range Nokia device in the third quarter 2008.

 

Our mobile device average selling price (ASP) in the third quarter 2008 was EUR 72, down from EUR 82 in the third quarter 2007 and down from EUR 74 in the second quarter 2008. The lower year on year ASP was primarily due to a higher proportion of lower priced products and the negative impact of the weaker US dollar. Approximately 50% of the year on year decline in ASP was caused by the impact of changes in exchange rates. The lower sequential ASP was primarily due to a higher proportion of lower priced products. Starting from the

Nokia Corporation

 

first quarter 2008, our ASP excludes net sales from our services and software business. Prior periods have been reclassified for comparison purposes.

 

Third quarter 2008 Devices & Services net sales declined 7% to EUR 8.6 billion, compared with EUR 9.2 billion in the third quarter 2007. At constant currency, Devices & Services net sales would have decreased 1%. Volume growth was more than offset by an ASP decline, driven primarily by a higher proportion of lower priced devices, and the negative impact of the weaker US dollar compared to the third quarter 2007. Of our total Devices & Services net sales, services and software contributed EUR 115 million in the third quarter 2008. Services and software billings were EUR 140 million for the third quarter 2008. Based on the various business models, part of the services and software revenue may not be recognized at the time of billing but deferred to be recognized in future periods to reflect the state of completion of the service and/or software delivery.

 

Net sales growth in Devices & Services was strongest year on year in Latin America, followed by Greater China. Net sales were down year on year in North America, Europe, and to a lesser extent in Asia-Pacific and Middle East & Africa.

 

Devices & Services reported gross profit decreased 7% to EUR 3.1 billion, compared with EUR 3.4 billion in the third quarter 2007, with a reported gross margin of 36.5% (36.5%). Devices & Services non-IFRS gross profit also decreased 7% to EUR 3.1 billion, compared with EUR 3.4 billion in the third quarter 2007, with a non-IFRS gross margin of 36.5% (36.5%).

 

Devices & Services reported operating profit decreased 18% to EUR 1.6 billion, compared with EUR 2.0 billion in the third quarter 2007, with a reported operating margin of 18.6% (21.2%). Devices & Services non-IFRS operating profit also decreased 18% to EUR 1.6 billion, compared with EUR 2.0 billion in the third quarter 2007, with a non-IFRS operating margin of 18.6% (21.2%). The 18% year on year decrease in reported and non-IFRS operating profit for the third quarter 2008 was driven primarily by lower net sales and slightly higher operating expenses compared to the third quarter 2007.

 

NAVTEQ

On July 10, 2008, Nokia completed the acquisition of NAVTEQ, a leading provider of comprehensive digital map information. As part of Nokia, NAVTEQ continues to develop its world-class expertise in the navigation industry, service its strong customer base, and invest in the further development of its industry-leading map data and technology platform. The map data business of NAVTEQ is a separate reportable segment of Nokia starting from the third quarter 2008. Accordingly, the results of NAVTEQ are not available for prior periods.

 

Third quarter 2008 NAVTEQ reported net sales were EUR 156 million. NAVTEQ reported gross profit was EUR 138 million, with a gross margin of 88.5%. Non-IFRS gross profit was EUR 139 million, with non-IFRS gross margin of 88.5%. NAVTEQ had a reported operating loss of EUR 80 million, including the negative impact of EUR 109 million in intangible asset amortization and other purchase price accounting related items. The reported operating margin was -51.3%. NAVTEQ non-IFRS operating profit was EUR 29 million, with a non-IFRS operating margin of 18.5%.

 

Nokia Siemens Networks

Third quarter 2008 net sales decreased 5% to EUR 3.5 billion, compared with EUR 3.7 billion in the third quarter 2007. At constant currency, Nokia Siemens Networks net sales would have been flat.

Nokia Siemens Networks reported gross profit increased 4% to EUR 1.1 billion, compared with EUR 1.0 billion in the third quarter 2007, with a gross margin of 30.8% (28.3%). Nokia Siemens Networks non-IFRS gross profit increased 1% to EUR 1.1 billion, compared with EUR 1.1 billion in the third quarter 2007, with a non-IFRS gross margin of 31.2% (29.2%). The higher year on year non-IFRS gross profit in the third quarter 2008 resulted primarily from the benefits of the continuing restructuring program and ongoing focus on deal quality and project execution, offset somewhat by the lower year on year net sales.

 

Nokia Siemens Networks had a third quarter 2008 reported operating loss of EUR 1 million compared with a reported operating loss of EUR 120 million in the third quarter 2007, with a reported operating margin of 0% (-3.3%). Nokia Siemens Networks non-IFRS operating profit increased 61% to EUR 177 million in the third quarter 2008, compared with EUR 110 million in the third quarter 2007, with a non-IFRS operating margin of 5.1% (3.0%). The year on year improvement in Nokia Siemens Networks non-IFRS operating profit, reflected improved gross margin and lower operating expenses. Nokia Siemens Networks continued to be on track to deliver the annual EUR 2 billion cost synergy target as previously announced.

NOKIA IN JANUARY – SEPTEMBER 2008

(International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) comparisons given to the January-September 2007 results, unless otherwise indicated.)

 

As of January 1, 2008, our three mobile device business groups, Mobile Phones, Multimedia and Enterprise Solutions, and the supporting horizontal groups were replaced by an integrated business segment, Devices & Services. Prior period results for Nokia and its reportable segments have been regrouped for comparability purposes according to the new reportable segments (on an unaudited basis).

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

It should be noted that certain statements herein which are not historical facts, including, without limitation, those regarding: A) the timing of product, services and solution deliveries; B) our ability to develop, implement and commercialize new products, services, solutions and technologies; C) expectations regarding market growth, developments and structural changes; D) expectations regarding our mobile device volume growth, market share, prices and margins; E) expectations and targets for our results of operations; F) the outcome of pending and threatened litigation; G) expectations regarding the successful completion of contemplated acquisitions on a timely basis and our ability to achieve the set targets upon the completion of such acquisitions; and H) statements preceded by “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “foresee,” “target,” “estimate,” “designed,” “plans,” “will” or similar expressions are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on management’s best assumptions and beliefs in light of the information currently available to it. Because they involve risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from the results that we currently expect. Factors that could cause these differences include, but are not limited to: 1) competitiveness of our product, service and solutions portfolio; 2) the extent of the growth of the mobile communications industry and general economic conditions globally; 3) the growth and profitability of the new market segments that we target and our ability to successfully develop or acquire and market products, services and solutions in those segments; 4) our ability to successfully manage costs; 5) the intensity of competition in the mobile communications industry and our ability to maintain or improve our market position or respond successfully to changes in the competitive landscape; 6) the impact of changes in technology and our ability to develop or otherwise acquire complex technologies as required by the market, with full rights needed to use; 7) timely and successful commercialization of complex technologies as new advanced products, services and solutions; 8) our ability to protect the complex technologies, which we or others develop or that we license, from claims that we have infringed third parties’ intellectual property rights, as well as our unrestricted use on commercially acceptable terms of certain technologies in our products, services and solution offerings; 9) our ability to protect numerous Nokia and Nokia Siemens Networks patented, standardized or proprietary technologies from third-party infringement or actions to invalidate the intellectual property rights of these technologies; 10) Nokia Siemens Networks’ ability to achieve the expected benefits and synergies from its formation to the extent and within the time period anticipated and to successfully integrate its operations, personnel and supporting activities; 11) whether, as a result of investigations into alleged violations of law by some current or former employees of Siemens AG (“Siemens”), government authorities or others take further actions against Siemens and/or its employees that may involve and affect the carrier-related assets and employees transferred by Siemens to Nokia Siemens Networks, or there may be undetected additional violations that may have occurred prior to the transfer, or ongoing violations that may have occurred after the transfer, of such assets and employees that could result in additional actions by government authorities; 12) any impairment of Nokia Siemens Networks customer relationships resulting from the ongoing government investigations involving the Siemens carrier-related operations transferred to Nokia Siemens Networks; 13) occurrence of any actual or even alleged defects or other quality issues in our products, services and solutions; 14) our ability to manage efficiently our manufacturing and logistics, as well as to ensure the quality, safety, security and timely delivery of our products, services and solutions; 15) inventory management risks resulting from shifts in market demand; 16) our ability to source sufficient amounts of fully functional components and sub-assemblies without interruption and at acceptable prices; 17) any disruption to information technology systems and networks that our operations rely on; 18) developments under large, multi-year contracts or in relation to major customers; 19) economic or political turmoil in emerging market countries where we do business; 20) our success in collaboration arrangements relating to development of technologies or new products, services and solutions; 21) the success, financial condition and performance of our collaboration partners, suppliers and customers; 22) exchange rate fluctuations, including, in particular, fluctuations between the euro, which is our reporting currency, and the US dollar, the Chinese yuan, the UK pound sterling and the Japanese yen, as well as certain other currencies; 23) the management of our customer financing exposure; 24) allegations of possible health risks from electromagnetic fields generated by base stations and mobile devices and lawsuits related to them, regardless of merit; 25) unfavorable outcome of litigations; 26) our ability to recruit, retain and develop appropriately skilled employees; 27) the impact of changes in government policies, laws or regulations; and 28) our ability to effectively and smoothly implement our new organizational structure; as well as the risk factors specified on pages 10-25 of Nokia’s annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2007 under “Item 3.D Risk Factors.” Other unknown or unpredictable factors or underlying assumptions subsequently proving to be incorrect could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Nokia does not undertake any obligation to update publicly or revise forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent legally required.
