Nokia: net sales down 25% Y-o-Y

Nokia reported net sales of €9.9 billion, down 25% year on year and up 7% sequentially (down 24% and up 7% at constant currency).

Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, Nokia's CEO: "Nokia put in a solid performance in what was another tough quarter. We increased our share of the global mobile device market sequentially to an estimated 38% and grew our smartphone market share to an estimated 41%. As a result of strong operational execution, underlying operating margins improved sequentially in all segments. Competition remains intense, but demand in the overall mobile device market appears to be bottoming out. As before, we are continuing to tightly manage our operating expenses." "We are balancing short-term priorities with our longer-term growth ambitions as elements of the mobile handset, PC, internet and media industries converge to form a new industry. Consumers will increasingly expect devices and services designed as integrated solutions. To capture this opportunity we are accelerating our strategic transformation into a solutions company." 2Q Highlights - Nokia net sales of EUR 9.9 billion, down 25% year on year and up 7% sequentially (down 24% and up 7% at constant currency). - Devices & Services net sales of EUR 6.6 billion, down 28% year on year and up 7% sequentially (down 28% and up 7% at constant currency), and non-IFRS operating margin of 12.2% (20.1% in Q2 2008). - Devices & Services gross margin of 34.0%, up from 33.8% in Q1 2009. - Services net sales of EUR 140 million (billings of EUR 207 million).
