Commenting on the Q3 results, Stephen Elop, Nokia CEO, said:

 

“As we expected, Q3 was a difficult quarter in our Devices & Services business; however, we are pleased that we shifted Nokia Group to operating profitability on a non-IFRS basis.

 

In Q3, we continued to manage through a tough transitional quarter for our smart devices business as we shared the exciting innovation ahead with our new line of Lumia products.

 

In our mobile phones business, the positive consumer response to our new Asha full touch smartphones translated into strong sales. And in Q3, our mobile phones business delivered a solid quarter with sequential sales growth and improved contribution margin.

 

In Location & Commerce, we made progress establishing our platform offering with customers like Amazon. This is in line with our plan to expand our location offering to more customers.

 

And, Nokia Siemens Networks had a remarkable quarter in which we achieved record profitability on a non-IFRS basis and the Nokia Siemens Networks cash balance increased for the fourth quarter in a row.

 

While we continue to focus on transitioning Nokia, we are determined to carefully manage our financial resources, improve our competitiveness, return our Devices & Services business to positive operating cash flow as quickly as possible, and ultimately provide more value to our shareholders.”

Note 1 relating to January-September 2012 results: Nokia reported net sales were EUR 22 135 million and reported EPS (diluted) was EUR -0.89 for the period from January 1 to September 30, 2012. Further information about the results for the period from January 1 to September 30, 2012 can be found on pages 20, 27, 28 and 31 of the complete Q3 2012 interim report with tables.

 

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 (i) the formation of Nokia Siemens Networks and (ii) all business acquisitions completed after June 30, 2008.  Nokia believes that our non-IFRS results provide meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors regarding Nokia’s underlying 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. See note 3 below for information about the exclusions from our non-IFRS results. More information, including a reconciliation of our Q3 2012 and Q3 2011 non-IFRS results to our reported results, can be found in our complete Q3 2012 interim report with tables on pages 19 and 22-26. A reconciliation of our Q2 2012 non-IFRS results to our reported results can be found in our complete Q2 interim report with tables on pages 21-25 published on July 19, 2012.

Note 4 relating to non-IFRS Nokia EPS:

 

Nokia taxes were unfavorably impacted by Devices & Services taxes as no tax benefits are recognized for certain Devices & Services deferred tax items. If Nokia’s earlier estimated long-term tax rate of 26% had been applied, non-IFRS Nokia EPS would have been approximately 4.2 Euro cent higher in Q3 2012. Going forward on a non-IFRS basis, until a pattern of tax profitability is reestablished, Nokia expects to record quarterly tax expense of approximately EUR 50 million related to its Devices & Services business and approximately EUR 50 million related to its Nokia Siemens Networks business. Nokia expects to continue to record taxes related to its Location & Commerce business at a 26% rate.

 

Note 5 relating to Nokia net cash and other liquid assets: Calculated as total cash and other liquid assets less interest-bearing liabilities. For selected information on Nokia Group interest-bearing liabilities, please see the table on page 33 of the complete Q3 2012 interim report with tables

 

Note 6 relating to operational and reporting structure: We adopted our current operational structure during 2011 and have three businesses: Devices & Services, Location & Commerce and Nokia Siemens Networks and four operating and reportable segments: Smart Devices and Mobile Phones within Devices & Services, Location & Commerce and Nokia Siemens Networks. Smart Devices focuses on smartphones and Mobile Phones focuses on mass market mobile devices, including Asha full touch smartphones. Devices & Services also contains Devices & Services Other which includes net sales of our luxury phone business Vertu, spare parts and related cost of sales and operating expenses, as well as intellectual property related income and common research and development expenses. In October 2012, we completed the divestment of Vertu to EQT VI, a European private equity firm.  Location & Commerce focuses on the development of location-based services and local commerce. Nokia Siemens Networks is one of the leading global providers of telecommunications infrastructure hardware, software and services.

 

Note 7 relating to average selling prices (ASP): Mobile device ASP represents total Devices & Services net sales (Smart Devices net sales, Mobile Phones net sales, and Devices & Services Other net sales) divided by total Devices & Services volumes. Devices & Services Other net sales includes net sales of Nokia’s luxury phone business Vertu and spare parts, as well as intellectual property income. Smart Devices ASP represents Smart Devices net sales divided by Smart Devices volumes. Mobile Phones ASP represents Mobile Phones net sales divided by Mobile Phones volumes.

NOKIA OUTLOOK

 

·                  Nokia expects its non-IFRS Devices & Services operating margin in the fourth quarter 2012 to be approximately negative 6%, plus or minus four percentage points. This outlook is based on our expectations regarding a number of factors, including:

·                  competitive industry dynamics continuing to negatively affect the Smart Devices and Mobile Phones business units;

·                  the fourth quarter being a ramp up quarter for our new Lumia products, which are expected to start selling in select markets;

·                  consumer demand, particularly related to our current Lumia products;

·                  an expected increase in Devices & Services operating expenses as a result of new product launches, partially offset by expected cost reductions under our restructuring program; and

·                  the macroeconomic environment.

·                  Nokia expects the fourth quarter 2012 to be a challenging quarter in Smart Devices, with a lower-than-normal benefit from seasonality in volumes, primarily due to product transitions and our ramp up plan for our new devices.

·                  Nokia continues to target to reduce its Devices & Services non-IFRS operating expenses to an annualized run rate of approximately EUR 3.0 billion by the end of 2013.

·                  Nokia and Nokia Siemens Networks expect Nokia Siemens Networks non-IFRS operating margin in the fourth quarter 2012 to be approximately positive 8%, plus or minus four percentage points.  This outlook is based on our expectations regarding a number of factors, including:

·                  competitive industry dynamics;

·                  seasonal variations in customer demand for Nokia Siemens Networks’ equipment and services;

·                  regional and product mix;

·                  expected continued improvement under Nokia Siemens Networks’ restructuring program; and

·                  the macroeconomic environment.

·                  Nokia Siemens Networks continues to target to reduce its non-IFRS annualized operating expenses and production overheads by EUR 1 billion by the end of 2013, compared to the end of 2011.

 

THIRD QUARTER 2012 FINANCIAL AND OPERATING DISCUSSION

 

NOKIA GROUP

 

We adopted our current operational structure during 2011 and have three businesses: Devices & Services, Location & Commerce and Nokia Siemens Networks and four operating and reportable segments: Smart Devices and Mobile Phones within Devices & Services, Location & Commerce and Nokia Siemens Networks. Smart Devices focuses on smartphones and Mobile Phones focuses on mass market mobile devices, including Asha full touch smartphones. Devices & Services also contains Devices & Services Other which includes net sales of our luxury phone business Vertu, spare parts and related cost of sales and operating expenses, as well as intellectual property related income and common research and development expenses. In October 2012, we completed the divestment of Vertu to EQT VI, a European private equity firm. Location & Commerce focuses on the development of location-based services and local commerce. Nokia Siemens Networks is one of the leading global providers of telecommunications infrastructure hardware, software and services.

 

The following discussion includes non-IFRS results information. 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 (i) the formation of Nokia Siemens Networks and (ii) all business acquisitions completed after June 30, 2008.

 

The following table sets forth the year-on-year and sequential growth rates in our net sales on a reported basis and at constant currency for the periods indicated.

Note 1: Total cash and other liquid assets minus interest-bearing liabilities.

 

Year-on-year, net cash and other liquid assets decreased by EUR 1.5 billion in the third quarter 2012, primarily due to cash outflows related to restructuring and net financial expenses, the payment of the annual dividend totaling EUR 742 million in the second quarter 2012 and capital expenditures, partially offset by cash flows related to the receipt of quarterly platform support payments from Microsoft (which commenced in the fourth quarter 2011) and positive overall net cash from operating activities, excluding cash outflows related to restructuring and net financial expenses.

 

Sequentially, net cash and other liquid assets decreased by EUR 633 million in the third quarter 2012, primarily due to cash outflows related to restructuring, cash outflows related to net financial expenses, Devices & Services operating losses as well as capital expenditures, partially offset by positive Nokia Siemens Networks operating profits and the receipt of a USD 250 million (approximately EUR 202 million) quarterly platform support payment from Microsoft.

 

In the third quarter 2012, Nokia Siemens Networks’ contribution to net cash from operating activities was approximately EUR 320 million, primarily due to net profit adjusted for non-cash items. At the end of the third quarter 2012, Nokia Siemens Networks’ contribution to the Nokia gross cash was EUR 2.0 billion and contribution to Nokia’s net cash was EUR 620 million.

 

Our agreement with Microsoft includes platform support payments from Microsoft to us as well as software royalty payments from us to Microsoft.  In the third quarter 2012, we received a quarterly platform support payment of USD 250 million (approximately EUR 202 million). Under the terms of the agreement governing the platform support payments, the amount of each quarterly platform support payment is USD 250 million. We have a competitive software royalty structure, which includes annual minimum software royalty commitments. Minimum software royalty commitments are paid quarterly. Over the life of the agreement, both the platform support payments and the minimum software royalty commitments are expected to measure in the billions of US dollars. The total amount of the platform support payments is expected to slightly exceed the total amount of the minimum software royalty commitments. In accordance with the contract terms, the platform support payments and annual minimum software royalty commitment payments continue for a corresponding period of time.

The year-on-year and sequential changes in our Devices & Services net sales, volumes, average selling prices and gross margin are discussed below under our Smart Devices and Mobile Phones business units. On a year-on-year basis Devices & Services Other net sales were lower in the third quarter 2012 primarily due to the recognition in the third quarter 2011 of approximately EUR 70 million of non-recurring IPR income. In the third quarter 2012, Devices & Services Other net sales benefitted from sequentially higher IPR income.

 

We estimate that our current annual IPR income run-rate is approximately EUR 0.5 billion.

 

We ended the third quarter 2012 within the normal 4 to 6 week channel inventory range. On an absolute unit basis and in days of supply channel inventories declined sequentially.

On a year-on-year basis, the decreases in Greater China net sales and volumes were primarily due to Symbian.

 

On a year-on-year basis, the decreases in North America net sales and volumes were primarily due to Mobile Phones.

 

The sequential decreases in net sales and volumes in North America were primarily due to lower operator and distributor demand for Lumia as well as our efforts to prepare the distribution channel for the upcoming sales start of new devices.

 

Net sales in China decreased sequentially primarily due to lower net sales of our Lumia and Symbian devices, primarily reflecting competitive pressures. Volumes in China decreased sequentially primarily due to lower volumes of our Symbian devices, primarily reflecting competitive pressures.

 

Net sales in Europe decreased sequentially primarily due to lower net sales of our Symbian and Lumia products, partially offset by higher net sales of our Mobile Phones devices. Volumes in Europe increased sequentially primarily due to higher volumes of our Mobile Phones devices, partially offset by lower volumes of our Symbian and Lumia products.

 

At constant currency Devices & Services’ net sales would have decreased 36% year-on-year and decreased 13% sequentially.

Operating Expenses

 

Devices & Services non-IFRS operating expenses decreased 19% year-on-year and 16% sequentially in the third quarter 2012. On a year-on-year basis, operating expenses related to Mobile Phones and Smart Devices decreased 3% and 33%, respectively, in the third quarter 2012. In addition to the factors described below, the year-on-year changes resulted from the proportionate allocation of operating expenses being affected by the relative mix of sales and gross profit performance between Mobile Phones and Smart Devices. This resulted in higher and lower relative allocations to Mobile Phones and Smart Devices, respectively. On a sequential basis, operating expenses related to Mobile Phones and Smart Devices decreased by 13% and 18%, respectively, in the third quarter 2012.

 

Devices & Services non-IFRS research and development expenses decreased 21% year-on-year in the third quarter 2012. On a sequential basis, Devices & Services non-IFRS research and development expenses decreased 14% in the third quarter 2012. Both the year-on-year and sequential declines were primarily due to cost reductions related to ramping down Symbian and MeeGo activities, the focusing of our efforts and reductions in certain projects within Mobile Phones, and overall cost controls.

 

Devices & Services non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses decreased 17% year-on-year in the third quarter 2012. Year-on-year, marketing expenses declined primarily due to lower marketing expenditure on Symbian as well as cost controls, partially offset by higher marketing expenditure on Lumia products. On a sequential basis, Devices & Services non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses decreased 23% in the third quarter 2012. Sequentially, marketing expenses decreased primarily due to lower expenditure on Lumia products following the North America launch in the second quarter, headcount reductions and cost controls.

 

Devices & Services non-IFRS administrative and general expenses decreased 16% year-on-year in the third quarter 2012 primarily related to cost savings in support functions, particularly in IT and real estate management and shared function cost categorization. On a sequential basis, Devices & Services non-IFRS administrative and general expenses increased 31% in the third quarter 2012 due to shared function cost categorization which more than offset cost savings in support functions.

 

In the third quarter 2012, Devices & Services non-IFRS other income and expense had a negative year-on-year and sequential impact on profitability. On a reported basis, other income and expense was significantly adversely affected in the third quarter 2012 primarily as a result of restructuring-related expenses discussed below, which were recognized in Devices & Services Other.

 

Operating Margin

 

The lower year-on-year Devices & Services non-IFRS operating margin in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to lower net sales and gross margin, partially offset by lower operating expenses.

 

The sequentially higher Devices & Services non-IFRS operating margin in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to lower operating expenses as well as slightly higher gross margin.

Net Sales

 

On a year-on-year basis, the decline in our Smart Devices net sales in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to lower volumes partially offset by higher ASPs. On a year-on-year basis, the volume decline was primarily due to lower Symbian volumes partially offset by Lumia volumes. On a year-on-year basis, ASPs benefitted from the higher proportion of Lumia net sales.

 

On a sequential basis, the decline in our Smart Devices net sales in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to lower Lumia and Symbian volumes. This was partially offset by higher Smart Devices ASPs, primarily due to higher Symbian ASPs as well as a positive impact related to deferred revenue on services sold in combination with our devices.

 

Volume

 

During the third quarter 2012 we shipped 6.3 million Smart Devices units, of which approximately 2.9 million were Lumia products.

 

The year-on-year decline in our Smart Devices volumes in the third quarter 2012 continued to be driven by the strong momentum of competing smartphone platforms relative to our Smart Devices portfolio. Greater China, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Middle East and Africa showed significant year-on-year decreases in volumes, whereas North America and Latin America remained approximately at the same level in the third quarter 2012.

 

On a sequential basis, the decline in our Smart Devices volumes in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to lower Symbian and Lumia volumes. All regions showed a sequential decline in the third quarter 2012 except Middle East and Africa which remained approximately at the same level.

 

Average Selling Price

 

The year-on-year increase in our Smart Devices ASP in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to a positive mix shift towards sales of our Lumia products which carry a higher ASP than our Symbian devices, as well as a positive impact related to deferred revenue on services sold in combination with our devices.

 

Sequentially, the increase in our Smart Devices ASP in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to higher Symbian ASPs as well as a positive impact related to deferred revenue on services sold in combination with our devices. The ASP of our Lumia products in the third quarter 2012 was EUR 160, compared to EUR 186 in the second quarter 2012. This decline was primarily due to a higher proportion of sales of the lower priced Nokia Lumia offering as well as increased erosion of our prices primarily due to our pricing actions.

 

8



 

Gross Margin

 

The significant year-on-year decline in our Smart Devices gross margin in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to the recognition of approximately EUR 120 million of allowances related to excess component inventory, future purchase commitments and an inventory revaluation related to our current Lumia products, as well as greater price erosion than cost erosion and higher fixed costs per unit, because of lower sales volumes. From an operating system perspective, the year-on-year decline in our Smart Devices gross margin in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to a lower Symbian gross margin. In addition sales of Lumia products which were not available in the third quarter 2011 had a lower gross margin in the third quarter 2012 than Symbian devices in the third quarter 2011.

 

On a sequential basis, the decline in our Smart Devices gross margin in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to higher fixed costs per unit, because of lower sales volumes, as well as greater price erosion than cost erosion. The EUR 120 million of allowances noted above also adversely affected our Smart Devices gross margin in the third quarter 2012, but to a lesser extent than the EUR 220 million of such allowances in the second quarter 2012. From an operating system perspective, the sequential decline in our Smart Devices gross margin in the third quarter was primarily due to a lower Lumia gross margin, partially offset by a higher Symbian gross margin.

 

Increases or decreases to Smart Devices inventory related allowances may be required in the future depending on several factors, including future consumer demand, particularly related to our current Lumia products.

On a year-on-year basis, the decline in our Mobile Phones net sales in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to lower volumes as well as lower ASPs. On a sequential basis, the increase in our Mobile Phones net sales in the third quarter 2012 was due to higher volumes.

 

Volume

 

During the third quarter 2012 we shipped 76.6 million Mobile Phones units, of which 6.5 million were Asha full touch smartphones.

 

On a year-on-year basis, the decrease in our Mobile Phones volumes in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to the decline in volumes of our lower priced devices that we sell to our customers for below EUR 30. Volumes of our higher priced devices also declined, partially offset by volumes of our newly launched Asha full touch smartphones.

 

On a sequential basis, the increase in our Mobile Phones volumes in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to volumes of our Asha full touch smartphones.

Net Sales

 

Starting in the third quarter 2012, we are disclosing additional financial information for Location & Commerce:  external and internal net sales.  External net sales represent sales of content licenses, platform licenses, and applications to customers other than Nokia.  Currently, Location & Commerce external net sales are predominantly from the licensing of map content.  Over time, we expect a gradual but steady migration of external net sales towards platform related revenue as our customers increasingly use the Nokia Location Platform, which enables new and innovative location services and applications. Internal net sales represent Location & Commerce sales in conjunction with Nokia devices.

 

In the third quarter 2012, the year-on-year decline in external Location & Commerce net sales was primarily due to lower sales to our personal navigation device customers as industry volumes continued to decline, almost entirely offset by higher sales of map content licenses to vehicle customers due to higher consumer uptake of vehicle navigation systems.  In the third quarter 2012, the sequential decline in external Location & Commerce net sales was primarily due to lower map update sales, related to the timing of our update campaigns, and seasonally lower vehicles sales, almost entirely offset by the non-recurrence of a negative sales adjustment related to historical license fees in the normal course of business for a particular customer.

 

In the third quarter 2012, the year-on-year and sequential declines in internal Location & Commerce net sales were due to declines in sales to our Smart Devices business unit.

 

Gross Margin

 

On a year-on-year basis, the decline in Location & Commerce non-IFRS gross margin in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to lower personal navigation device sales which carry higher gross margins, lower internal sales which carry higher gross margins, and higher vehicle sales which carry lower gross margins.  In addition, there was a shift of research and development operating expenses to cost of sales as a result of the divestment of the media advertising business and a lower allocation of production costs from Location & Commerce to Devices & Services as the usage of certain shared services has declined.

 

On a sequential basis, the increase in Location & Commerce non-IFRS gross margin in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to the non-recurrence of a negative sales adjustment related to historical license fees in the normal course of business for a particular customer, as well as lower map update sales which carry a lower gross margin.

 

10



 

Operating Expenses

 

Location & Commerce non-IFRS research and development expenses decreased 13% year-on-year and 4% sequentially in the third quarter 2012 primarily due to cost reductions as well as a shift in expenses from research and development to costs of sales related to the divestment of the media advertising business.

 

Location & Commerce non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses decreased 21% year-on-year and 4% sequentially in the third quarter 2012. On a year-on-year basis, the decrease was primarily due to cost reduction actions. On a sequential basis, the decrease was primarily due to lower marketing costs due to timing of update campaigns.

 

Location & Commerce non-IFRS administrative and general expenses increased 6% year-on-year and decreased 19% sequentially in the third quarter 2012. On a year-on-year basis, the increase was primarily due to the higher use of services provided by shared support functions. On a sequential basis, the decrease was primarily due to lower use of services provided by shared support functions.

 

Location & Commerce non-IFRS other income and expense for the third quarter 2012 was approximately zero, compared to expense of EUR 1 million in the third quarter 2011 and income of EUR 7 million in the second quarter 2012.

 

Operating Margin

 

The higher year-on-year Location & Commerce non-IFRS operating margin in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to lower operating expenses, partially offset by lower net sales and lower gross margin.

 

The approximately flat sequential Location & Commerce non-IFRS operating margin in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to higher gross margin and lower operating expenses, partially offset by lower net sales and lower other income.

The year-on-year increase in Nokia Siemens Networks’ net sales in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to higher sales of infrastructure equipment and slightly higher sales of services, partially offset by a decline in sales of business areas not consistent with Nokia Siemens Networks’ strategic focus. On a regional basis, the year-on-year growth was primarily due to higher net sales in Asia Pacific, most notably in Japan which saw strong growth in sales of both infrastructure equipment and services. This was partially offset by lower sales in Europe of both infrastructure equipment and services, particularly infrastructure equipment sales in Western Europe, primarily due

 

11



 

to the continuation of the weaker operator investment environment in that region and lower services sales consistent with Nokia Siemens Networks’ focused strategy.

 

The sequential increase in Nokia Siemens Networks’ net sales in the third quarter 2012 was driven by the higher sales of infrastructure equipment. Sales of services were approximately flat compared to the second quarter 2012.  On a regional basis, the sequential growth was primarily due to higher net sales in Asia Pacific, most notably in Japan which saw strong growth in sales of both infrastructure equipment and services. This was partially offset by lower sales in Europe of both services and infrastructure equipment, particularly infrastructure equipment sales in Western Europe.  In addition, sales of both services and infrastructure equipment in China also declined primarily due to ongoing technology transitions which have made the timing of operator spending volatile.

 

At constant currency Nokia Siemens Networks’ net sales would have decreased 3% year-on-year and increased 1% sequentially.

 

Gross Margin

 

On both a year-on-year and sequential basis, the increase in Nokia Siemens Networks’ non-IFRS gross margin in the third quarter 2012  was due to an unusually favorable product and regional mix towards higher gross margin revenues, particularly in infrastructure equipment, driven mainly by Nokia Siemens Networks priority markets including Japan and Korea. In addition, Nokia Siemens Networks’ non-IFRS gross margin in the third quarter 2012 was also driven by structural cost savings in its production overheads as part of its broader cost savings targets.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Nokia Siemens Networks’ non-IFRS research and development expenses decreased 14% year-on-year and 5% sequentially in the third quarter 2012 primarily due to improvements in overall research and development efficiency.

 

Year-on-year, Nokia Siemens Networks’ non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses decreased 15% in the third quarter 2012 primarily due to structural cost savings, partially offset by higher sales.  On a sequential basis, Nokia Siemens Networks non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses decreased 6% in the third quarter 2012 primarily due to structural cost savings, partially offset by the higher net sales.

 

Nokia Siemens Networks’ non-IFRS administrative and general expenses decreased 18% year-on-year in the third quarter 2012 primarily due to structural cost savings, partially offset by higher net sales. On a sequential basis, Nokia Siemens Networks non-IFRS administrative and general expenses increased 3% in the third quarter 2012, primarily due to lower expense reallocation to other function costs which more than offset structural cost savings.

 

Nokia Siemens Networks’ non-IFRS other income and expense for the third quarter 2012 was an expense of EUR 8 million, compared to income of EUR 26 million in the third quarter 2011 and expense of EUR 25 million in the second quarter 2012.  On both a year-on-year and sequential basis, this was primarily due to changes in the doubtful account allowances.

 

Operating Margin

 

The year-on-year and sequential increase in Nokia Siemens Networks non-IFRS operating margin in the third quarter 2012 was primarily due to the higher gross margin, lower operating expenses, and to a lesser extent, higher net sales.

Nokia Siemens Networks continues to target to reduce its non-IFRS annualized operating expenses and production overheads by EUR 1 billion by the end of 2013, compared to the end of 2011. While these savings are expected to come largely from organizational streamlining, the company will also target areas such as real estate, information technology, product and service procurement costs, overall general and administrative expenses, and a significant reduction of suppliers in order to further lower costs and improve quality.

 

In the third quarter of 2012, Nokia Siemens Networks recognized restructuring charges and other associated items of EUR 74 million related to this restructuring program, resulting in cumulative charges of approximately EUR 1.0 billion. In total, Nokia Siemens Networks expects cumulative restructuring charges of approximately EUR 1.2 billion related to this restructuring program before the end of 2012. By the end of the third quarter 2012, Nokia Siemens Networks had cumulative restructuring related cash outflows of approximately EUR 450 million related to this restructuring program. Nokia Siemens Networks expects restructuring-related cash outflows to be approximately EUR 250 million in the fourth quarter 2012, approximately EUR 400 million in 2013, and approximately EUR 100 million in 2014 related to this restructuring program.

 

Cash preservation is a clear priority at Nokia Siemens Networks, and the company intends to be self-funding in all aspects of its operations.  Nokia Siemens Networks’ restructuring program, combined with the company’s focus on improving its financial performance, is designed to enable the company to end 2012 with higher net cash than at the end of 2011

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

It should be noted that certain statements herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, those regarding: A) the expected plans and benefits of our partnership with Microsoft to bring together complementary assets and expertise to form a global mobile ecosystem for smartphones; B) the timing and expected benefits of our new strategies, including expected operational and financial benefits and targets as well as changes in leadership and operational structure; C) the timing of the deliveries of our products and services; D) our ability to innovate, develop, execute and commercialize new technologies, products and services; E) expectations regarding market developments and structural changes; F) expectations and targets regarding our industry volumes, market share, prices, net sales and margins of our products and services; G) expectations and targets regarding our operational priorities and results of operations; H) expectations and targets regarding collaboration and partnering arrangements; I) the outcome of pending and threatened litigation; J) expectations regarding the successful completion of restructurings, investments, acquisitions and divestments on a timely basis and our ability to achieve the financial and operational targets set in connection with any such restructurings, investments, acquisitions and divestments; and K) statements preceded by “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “foresee,” “target,” “estimate,” “designed,” “aim”, “plans,” “intends,” “will” or similar expressions. 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) our success in the smartphone market, including our ability to introduce and bring to market quantities of attractive, competitively priced Nokia products that operate on the Windows Phone operating system that are positively differentiated from our competitors’ products, both outside and within the Windows Phone ecosystem; 2) our ability to make Nokia products that operate on the Windows Phone operating system a competitive choice for consumers, and together with Microsoft, our success in encouraging and supporting a competitive and profitable global ecosystem for Windows Phone products that achieves sufficient scale, value and attractiveness to all market participants; 3) reduced demand for, and net sales of, Nokia products that operate on the Windows Phone 7 operating system in anticipation and availability of Nokia products with the new Windows Phone 8 operating system; 4) the difficulties we experience in having a competitive offering of Symbian devices and maintaining the economic viability of the Symbian smartphone platform during the transition to Windows Phone as our primary smartphone platform; 5) our ability to effectively and timely implement planned changes to our operational structure, including the planned restructuring measures, and to successfully complete the planned investments, acquisitions and divestments in order to improve our operating model and achieve targeted efficiencies and reductions in operating expenses as well as our ability to accurately estimate the related restructuring charges and restructuring related cash outflows; 6) our future sales performance, among other factors, may require us to recognize allowances related to excess component inventory, future purchase commitments and inventory write-offs in our Devices & Services business;  7) our ability to realize a return on our investment in next generation devices, platforms and user experiences; 8) our ability to produce attractive and competitive devices in our Mobile Phones business unit including feature phones and devices with more smartphone-like features such as full touch devices, in a timely and cost efficient manner with differentiated hardware, software, localized services and applications; 9) the intensity of competition in the various markets where we do business and our ability to maintain or improve our market position or respond successfully to changes in the competitive environment; 10) our ability to retain, motivate, develop and recruit appropriately skilled employees; 11) the success of our Location & Commerce strategy, including our ability to establish a successful location-based platform, provide support for our Devices & Services business and create new sources of revenue from our location-based services and commerce assets; 12) our actual performance in the short-term and long-term could be materially different from our forecasts, which could impact future estimates of recoverable value of our reporting units and may result in impairment charges; 13) our success in collaboration and partnering arrangements with third parties, including Microsoft; 14) our ability to increase our speed of innovation, product development and execution to bring new innovative and competitive mobile products and location-based or other services to the market in a timely manner; 15) our dependence on the development of the mobile and communications industry, including location-based and other services industries, in numerous diverse markets, as well as on general economic conditions globally and regionally; 16) our ability to protect numerous patented standardized or proprietary technologies from third-party infringement or actions to invalidate the intellectual property rights of these technologies; 17) our ability to maintain and leverage our traditional strengths in the mobile product market if we are unable to retain the loyalty of our mobile operator and distributor customers and consumers as a result of the implementation of our strategies or other factors; 18) the success, financial condition and performance of our suppliers, collaboration partners and customers; 19) our ability to manage efficiently our manufacturing and logistics, as well as to ensure the quality, safety, security and timely delivery of our products and services; 20) our ability to source sufficient amounts of fully functional quality components, sub-assemblies, software and services on a timely basis without interruption and on favorable terms; 21) our ability to manage our inventory and timely adapt our supply to meet changing demands for our products; 22) any actual or even alleged defects or other quality, safety and security issues in our products; 23) the impact of a cybersecurity breach or other factors leading to any actual or alleged loss, improper disclosure or leakage of any personal or consumer data collected by us or our partners or subcontractors, made available to us or stored in or through our products; 24) our ability to successfully manage the pricing of our products and costs related to our products and operations; 25) exchange rate fluctuations, including, in particular, fluctuations between the euro, which is our reporting currency, and the US dollar, the Japanese yen and the Chinese yuan, as well as certain other currencies; 26) our ability to protect the 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 and services; 27) the impact of economic, political, regulatory or other developments on our sales, manufacturing facilities and assets located in emerging market countries; 28) the impact of changes in government policies, trade policies, laws or regulations where our assets are located and where we do business; 29) the potential complex tax issues and obligations we may incur to pay additional taxes in the various jurisdictions in which we do business and our actual or anticipated performance, among other factors, could result in allowances related to deferred tax assets; 30) any disruption to information technology systems and networks that our operations rely on; 31) unfavorable outcome of litigations; 32) allegations of possible health risks from electromagnetic fields generated by base stations and mobile products and lawsuits related to them, regardless of merit; 33) Nokia Siemens Networks ability to implement its new strategy and restructuring plan effectively and in a timely manner to improve its overall competitiveness and profitability; 34) Nokia Siemens Networks’ success in the telecommunications infrastructure services market and Nokia Siemens Networks’ ability to effectively and profitably adapt its business and operations in a timely manner to the

increasingly diverse service needs of its customers; 35) Nokia Siemens Networks’ ability to maintain or improve its market position or respond successfully to changes in the competitive environment; 36) Nokia Siemens Networks’ liquidity and its ability to meet its working capital requirements; 37) Nokia Siemens Networks’ ability to timely introduce new competitive products, services, upgrades and technologies; 38) Nokia Siemens Networks’ ability to execute successfully its strategy for the acquired Motorola Solutions wireless network infrastructure assets; 39) developments under large, multi-year contracts or in relation to major customers in the networks infrastructure and related services business; 40) the management of our customer financing exposure, particularly in the networks infrastructure and related services business; 41) whether ongoing or any additional governmental investigations into alleged violations of law by some former employees of Siemens may involve and affect the carrier-related assets and employees transferred by Siemens to Nokia Siemens Networks; and 42) any impairment of Nokia Siemens Networks customer relationships resulting from ongoing or any additional governmental investigations involving the Siemens carrier-related operations transferred to Nokia Siemens Networks, as well as the risk factors specified on pages 13-47 of Nokia’s annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2011 under Item 3D. “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 publicly update or revise forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent legally required.
