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. More specific
information about the exclusions from the non-IFRS results may be found
in this press release on pages 2-3, 14-16 and 18. 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 Q2 2010 and Q2 2009 can be found in the tables on pages
11-12 and 14-18 of this press release. A reconciliation of our Q1 2010
non-IFRS results can be found on pages 10 and 12-16 of our Q1 2010
Interim Report of April 22, 2010. Note 2:
Nokia reported net sales were EUR 19 525 million and earnings per share
(diluted) were EUR 0.16 for the period from January 1 to June 30, 2010.
Further information about the results for the period from January 1 to
June 30, 2010 can be found in this press release on pages 9-10, 12,
19-21 and 22. SECOND QUARTER 2010 HIGHLIGHTS - Nokia net sales of EUR 10.0 billion, up 1% year-on-year and 5% sequentially (down 4% and up 2% at constant currency). -
Devices & Services net sales of EUR 6.8 billion, up 3% year-on-year
and 2% sequentially (down 2% and 1% at constant currency). - Services net sales of EUR 158 million, up 7% sequentially; billings of EUR 295 million, up 29% sequentially. - Nokia total mobile device volumes of 111.1 million units, up 8% year-on-year and 3% sequentially. -
Nokia converged mobile device (smartphone and mobile computer) volumes
of 24.0 million units, up 42% year-on-year and 12% sequentially. - Nokia mobile device ASP (including services revenue) of EUR 61, down from EUR 62 in Q1 2010. - Devices & Services gross margin of 30.2%, down from 34.0% in Q2 2009 and 32.4% in Q1 2010. - Devices & Services non-IFRS operating margin of 9.5%, down from 12.2% in Q2 2009 and 12.1% in Q1 2010. - NAVTEQ non-IFRS net sales of EUR 253 million, up 71% year-on-year and 34% sequentially (up 69% and 30% at constant currency). -
Nokia Siemens Networks net sales of EUR 3.0 billion, down 5%
year-on-year and up 12% sequentially (down 11% and up 10% at constant
currency). - Nokia Siemens Networks non-IFRS operating margin of 1.7%, up from 0.1% in Q2 2009 and 0.6% in Q1 2010. - Nokia operating cash flow of EUR 944 million. - Total cash and other liquid assets of EUR 9.5 billion at the end of Q2 2010.
- Nokia taxes were unfavorably impacted by Nokia Siemens Networks taxes
as no tax benefits are recognized for certain Nokia Siemens Networks
deferred tax items. If Nokia's estimated long-term tax rate of 26% had
been applied, non-IFRS Nokia EPS would have been approximately half a
Euro cent higher. OLLI-PEKKA KALLASVUO, NOKIA CEO: "Despite
facing continuing competitive challenges, we ended the second quarter
with several reasons to be optimistic about our future. For one, the
global handset market has continued to grow at a healthy pace, led by
some of the less mature markets where Nokia is strong. We are also
encouraged by the solid second quarter performance of our Mobile Phones
business, helped by an improving line-up of affordable models. In
smartphones, we continue to renew our portfolio. We believe that the
Nokia N8, the first of our Symbian^3 devices, will have a user
experience superior to that of any smartphone Nokia has created. The
Nokia N8 will be followed soon thereafter by further Symbian^3
smartphones that we are confident will give the platform broader appeal
and reach, and kick-start Nokia's fightback at the higher end of the
market." INDUSTRY AND NOKIA OUTLOOK - Nokia expects Devices & Services net sales to be between EUR 6.7 billion and EUR 7.2 billion in the third quarter 2010. - Nokia expects its non-IFRS operating margin in Devices & Services to be between 7% to 10% in the third quarter 2010. -
Nokia and Nokia Siemens Networks expect Nokia Siemens Networks' net
sales to be between EUR 2.7 billion and EUR 3.1 billion in the third
quarter 2010. - Nokia and Nokia
Siemens Networks expect the non-IFRS operating margin in Nokia Siemens
Networks to be between -2% and 2% in the third quarter 2010. -
Nokia continues to expect industry mobile device volumes to be up
approximately 10% in 2010, compared to 2009 (based on its revised
definition of the industry mobile device market applicable beginning in
2010). - Nokia continues to target its mobile device volume market share to be flat in 2010, compared to 2009. - Nokia continues to expect its mobile device value market share to be slightly lower in 2010, compared to 2009. - Nokia continues to target non-IFRS operating expenses in Devices & Services of approximately EUR 5.7 billion in 2010.
- Nokia targets Devices & Services non-IFRS operating margin of 10%
to 11% in 2010. This provides quantification in line with the June 16,
2010, revised target for Devices & Services non-IFRS operating
margin for 2010 to be at the lower end of, or below, the previous target
of 11% to 13%. Nokia continues to expect Devices & Services
non-IFRS operating margin during the fourth quarter 2010 to be higher
than the currently targeted full year Devices & Services non-IFRS
operating margin. - Nokia and Nokia Siemens Networks
continue to expect a flat market in Euro terms for the mobile and fixed
infrastructure and related services market in 2010, compared to 2009.
- Nokia and Nokia Siemens Networks now target Nokia Siemens Networks to
maintain its market share in 2010. This is an update to Nokia and Nokia
Siemens Networks earlier target for Nokia Siemens Networks to grow
faster than the market in 2010. - Nokia and Nokia
Siemens Networks continue to target Nokia Siemens Networks to reduce its
non-IFRS annualized operating expenses and production overheads by EUR
500 million by the end of 2011, compared to the end of 2009.
- Nokia and Nokia Siemens Networks continue to target Nokia Siemens
Networks non-IFRS operating margin of breakeven to 2% in 2010. SECOND QUARTER 2010 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (Comparisons are given to the second quarter 2009 results, unless otherwise indicated.)

second quarter 2010 net sales increased 1% to EUR 10.0 billion,
compared with EUR 9.9 billion in the second quarter 2009. At constant
currency, group net sales would have decreased 4% year-on-year. The
following chart sets out the year-on-year and sequential growth rates
in our net sales on a reported basis and at constant currency for the
periods indicated.

Change in net sales at constant currency excludes the impact of
changes in exchange rates in comparison to the Euro, our reporting
currency. | Nokia's
second quarter 2010 reported operating profit decreased to EUR 295
million, compared with EUR 427 million in the second quarter 2009.
Nokia's second quarter 2010 non-IFRS operating profit decreased 15% to
EUR 660 million, compared with EUR 775 million in the second quarter
2009. Nokia's second quarter 2010 reported operating margin was 2.9%
(4.3%). Nokia's second quarter 2010 non-IFRS operating margin was 6.6%
(7.8%). Operating cash flow for the second quarter
2010 was EUR 944 million. The operating cash flow for the second
quarter 2009 was EUR 716 million. Total cash and other liquid assets
were EUR 9.5 billion at end of the second quarter 2010, compared with
EUR 7.0 billion at the end of the second quarter 2009. At the end of the
second quarter 2010, Nokia's net debt-equity ratio (gearing) was -27%,
compared with -10% at the end of the second quarter 2009. Devices & Services As
previously disclosed and discussed below, multiple factors negatively
impacted Nokia's Devices & Services business during the second
quarter 2010, and we expect this to continue during the third quarter
2010. Net Sales.
Second quarter 2010 Devices & Services net sales increased 3% to
EUR 6.8 billion, compared with EUR 6.6 billion in the second quarter
2009. At constant currency, Devices & Services net sales would have
decreased 2% year-on-year. The net sales increase resulted primarily
from higher volumes in most regions driven by stronger demand, partially
offset by an ASP decline, compared to the second quarter 2009. Net
sales in the second quarter 2010 were adversely impacted by the
competitive environment, particularly in the high end of the market. The
following chart sets out Devices & Services net sales for the
periods indicated, as well as the year-on-year and sequential growth
rates, by geographic area.
| DEVICES & SERVICES NET SALES BY GEOGRAPHIC AREA | | (EUR million) | Q2/2010 | Q2/2009 | YoY Change | Q1/2010 | QoQ Change | | Europe | 2 173 | 2 158 | 1% | 2 186 | -1% | | Middle East & Africa | 934 | 1 038 | -10% | 1 005 | -7% | | Greater China | 1 373 | 1 136 | 21% | 1 458 | -6% | | Asia-Pacific | 1 543 | 1 568 | -2% | 1 363 | 13% | | North America | 223 | 264 | -16% | 219 | 2% | | Latin America | 553 | 422 | 31% | 432 | 28% | | Total | 6 799 | 6 586 | 3% | 6 663 | 2% | Of
our total Devices & Services net sales, services contributed EUR
158 million in the second quarter 2010, compared with EUR 148 million in
the first quarter 2010. Services billings in the second quarter 2010
were EUR 295 million, compared with EUR 228 million in the first quarter
2010. Due to the divestment of the security appliance business in April
2009, services net sales of EUR 140 million and billings of EUR 207
million in the second quarter 2009 are not directly comparable to
services net sales and billings in the second quarter 2010. The
following chart sets out our Devices & Services net sales for the
periods indicated, as well as the year-on-year and sequential growth
rates, by category. | DEVICES & SERVICES NET SALES BY CATEGORY | | (EUR million) | Q2/2010 | Q2/2009 3 | YoY Change3 | Q1/2010 | QoQ Change | | Mobile phones1 | 3 369 | 3 514 | -4% | 3 325 | 1% | | Converged mobile devices2 | 3 429 | 3 064 | 12% | 3 338 | 3% | | Total | 6 799 | 6 586 | 3% | 6 663 | 2% | | | | Note 1:

the services and accessories sold with them. | | Note 2: Smartphones and mobile computers, including the services and accessories sold with them. | | Note 3: Does not include the net sales of the security appliance business that was divested in April 2009. | Volume and Market Share.
In the second quarter 2010, the total mobile device volumes of Devices
& Services were 111.1 million units, representing an increase of 8%
year-on-year and 3% sequentially. The overall industry mobile device
volumes for the same period were 338 million units based on Nokia's
preliminary estimate, representing an increase of 14% year-on-year and
5% sequentially. Nokia's preliminary estimated mobile device market
share was 33% in the second quarter 2010, down from an estimated 35% in
the second quarter 2009 and unchanged from an estimated 33% in the first
quarter 2010 (based on Nokia's revised definition of the industry
mobile device market share applicable beginning in 2010 and applied
retrospectively to 2009 for comparative purposes only). Of
the total industry mobile device volumes, converged mobile device
industry volumes in the second quarter 2010 increased to 59.0 million
units, based on Nokia's preliminary estimate, compared with an estimated
41.0 million units in the second quarter 2009 and 52.6 million units in
the first quarter 2010. Our own converged mobile device volumes,
comprising our smartphones and mobile computers, were 24.0 million units
in the second quarter 2010, an increase of 42% compared with 16.9
million units in the second quarter 2009 and 12% compared with 21.5
million units in the first quarter 2010. Nokia's preliminary estimated
share of the converged mobile device market was 41% in the second
quarter 2010, compared with an estimated 41% in the second quarter 2009
and an estimated 41% in the first quarter 2010. The
following chart sets out our mobile device volumes for the periods
indicated, as well as the year-on-year and sequential growth rates, by
geographic area.
| DEVICES & SERVICES MOBILE DEVICE VOLUME BY GEOGRAPHIC AREA | | (million units) | Q2/2010 | Q2/2009 | YoY Change | Q1/2010 | QoQ Change | | Europe | 26.1 | 23.3 | 12% | 23.9 | 9% | | Middle East & Africa | 21.0 | 18.9 | 11% | 22.2 | -5% | | Greater China | 19.3 | 18.6 | 4% | 21.1 | -9% | | Asia-Pacific | 30.8 | 30.3 | 2% | 29.2 | 5% | | North America | 2.6 | 3.2 | -19% | 2.7 | -4% | | Latin America | 11.2 | 8.9 | 26% | 8.7 | 29% | | Total | 111.1 | 103.2 | 8% | 107.8 | 3% | Nokia's
8% year-on-year increase in global mobile device volumes was primarily
driven by an improved demand environment as economic conditions had
improved in most regions compared with the difficult economic conditions
of the second quarter 2009. This improvement was offset to some extent
by lower demand for our mobile devices in North America. On a sequential
basis, Nokia's 3% increase in global mobile device volumes primarily
reflected a seasonal increase in demand in Latin America, Europe and
Asia-Pacific offset to some extent by a seasonal decrease in demand in
Greater China and by lower demand for our mobile devices in Middle East
& Africa and North America. Average Selling Price.
Our mobile device average selling price (ASP) in the second quarter
2010 was EUR 61, down from EUR 64 in the second quarter 2009 and from
EUR 62 in the first quarter 2010 (including services revenue applied
retrospectively to 2009 for comparative purposes only). The lower
year-on-year ASP was primarily due to a higher proportion of
lower-priced converged mobile device sales and price pressure,
particularly in certain high-end smartphones, offset to some extent by
converged mobile devices representing a greater proportion of our
overall mobile device volumes in the second quarter 2010. On a
sequential basis, our lower ASP was primarily driven by price pressure,
particularly in certain high-end smartphones, offset to some extent by
the appreciation of certain currencies against the Euro and converged
mobile devices representing a greater proportion of our overall mobile
device volumes in the second quarter 2010. Our converged mobile device
ASP in the second quarter 2010 was EUR 143, down from EUR 155 in the
first quarter 2010 and EUR 181 in the second quarter 2009. The
year-on-year and sequential declines in our converged mobile devices
ASPs were mainly driven by an increase in the proportion of such devices
sold at lower price points consistent with our strategy to reach wider
groups of consumers, as well as price pressure in certain high-end
smartphones in the second quarter 2010. The
following chart sets out our Devices & Services ASP for the periods
indicated, as well as the year-on-year and sequential growth rates, by
category. | DEVICES & SERVICES AVERAGE SELLING PRICE BY CATEGORY | | (EUR) | Q2/2010 | Q2/2009 | YoY Change | Q1/2010 | QoQ Change | | Mobile phones1 | 39 | 41 | -5% | 39 | 0% | | Converged mobile devices2 | 143 | 181 | -21% | 155 | -8% | | Total | 61 | 64 | -4% | 62 | -1% | | | | Note 1:

Devices & Services gross profit (reported and non-IFRS) decreased
8% to EUR 2.1 billion, compared with EUR 2.2 billion in the second
quarter 2009, with a gross margin (reported and non-IFRS) of 30.2%
(34.0%). Devices & Services gross margin (reported and non-IFRS) was
32.4% in the first quarter 2010. The year-on-year and sequential gross
margin declines were primarily due to price pressure, particularly in
certain high-end smartphones, offset to some extent by converged mobile
devices representing a greater proportion of our overall mobile device
volumes in the second quarter 2010, compared to the second quarter 2009
and first quarter 2010. Sequentially, the gross margin decline was also
due to the depreciation of the Euro against certain currencies, which
led to higher cost of goods sold, and our foreign exchange hedging
having a smaller positive one-quarter impact on the gross margin, as
well as a mix shift towards sales of lower-gross margin converged mobile
devices. During the latter part of the second quarter 2010, Devices
& Services net sales and cost of goods sold were somewhat negatively
impacted by industry-wide shortages of certain components and we see
this situation continuing through the third quarter 2010. Devices
& Services reported operating profit decreased 16% to EUR 643
million, compared with EUR 763 million in the second quarter 2009, with a
reported operating margin of 9.5% (11.6%). Devices & Services
non-IFRS operating profit decreased 19% to EUR 647 million, compared
with EUR 802 million in the second quarter 2009, with a non-IFRS
operating margin of 9.5% (12.2%). The 19% year-on-year decrease in
non-IFRS operating profit for the second quarter 2010 was driven
primarily by the lower gross margin. Our operating expenses in the
second quarter 2010 were also adversely impacted by the depreciation of
the Euro against certain currencies, compared to the second quarter
2009. Nokia will deliver a family of smartphones
based on the Symbian^3 software platform that is targeted to offer a
clearly improved user experience, a high standard of quality, and
competitive value to consumers. We plan to start shipping the Nokia N8,
the first Symbian^3 device, towards the end of the third quarter 2010.
The Nokia N8 will be followed soon thereafter by further Symbian^3
smartphones that will give the platform broader appeal and reach. NAVTEQ Net Sales.
Second quarter 2010 NAVTEQ reported net sales increased 71%
year-on-year to EUR 252 million, compared with EUR 147 million in the
second quarter 2009, benefiting from improved conditions in the
automotive industry and growth in mobile device sales. At constant
currency, NAVTEQ net sales would have increased 69% year-on-year. Profitability.
In the second quarter 2010, NAVTEQ's reported gross profit increased to
EUR 205 million, compared with EUR 125 million in the second quarter
2009, with a gross margin of 81.3% (85.7%). Non-IFRS gross profit was
EUR 206 million (EUR 127 million), with a non-IFRS gross margin of 81.4%
(85.8%). In the second quarter 2010, NAVTEQ's reported operating loss
decreased to EUR 81 million, compared with a EUR 100 million loss in the
second quarter 2009. The reported operating margin was -32.1% (-68.0%).
NAVTEQ's non-IFRS operating profit was EUR 50 million (EUR 19 million),
with a non-IFRS operating margin of 19.8% (12.8%) in the second quarter
2010. Nokia Siemens Networks Net Sales.
Second quarter 2010 net sales decreased 5% to EUR 3.0 billion, compared
with EUR 3.2 billion in the second quarter 2009. The decrease was
primarily due to the ongoing industry-wide issue related to security
clearances in India, which is preventing the completion of product sales
to customers, and shortages of certain components that are affecting
the broader industry; we see both of these situations continuing during
the third quarter 2010. At constant currency, Nokia Siemens Networks net
sales would have decreased 11% year-on-year. Of total Nokia Siemens
Networks net sales, services contributed EUR 1.4 billion in the second
quarter 2010. The following chart sets out Nokia
Siemens Networks net sales for the periods indicated, as well as the
year-on-year and sequential growth rates, by geographic area.
