Networks Interim Report for Q1 2014 dated April 30, 2014: Networks Interim Report for Q1 2014
INTERIM REPORT
Espoo, Finland April 30, 2014
Networks(1) Interim Report for Q1 2014
Q1 2014 Financial Highlights:
· First quarter 2014 net sales of EUR 2 328 million, declined 14% year-on-year. Excluding divestments of businesses not consistent with Networks strategic focus as well as the exiting of certain customer contracts and countries, net sales year-on-year declined approximately 10%. This was primarily due to reduced wireless infrastructure deployment activity and a negative impact related to foreign currency fluctuations, partially offset by higher net sales in core networks and LTE. Net sales decreased 25% quarter-on-quarter primarily reflecting seasonality.
· Gross margin before specific items(2) was 39.6% in the first quarter 2014, the highest in Networks history, and an improvement of 5.8 percentage points from the first quarter 2013. This was primarily due to a higher proportion of software sales, significant efficiency improvements in Global Services and a higher proportion of Mobile Broadband sales. Sequentially, this represented an increase of 2.0 percentage points from the fourth quarter 2013.
· Operating expenses before specific items(2) in the first quarter 2014 were EUR 705 million, down from EUR 717 million in the first quarter 2013, and down from EUR 819 million in the fourth quarter 2013. Investment in research and development was reduced in areas not consistent with Networks strategy and increased in areas that are, most notably LTE.
· Underlying profitability for the eighth consecutive quarter, with the first quarter 2014 operating margin before specific items(2) of 9.3%, reflecting the strong gross margin. Operating margin in the first quarter 2014 was up from 7.4% in the first quarter 2013 and down from 11.2% in the fourth quarter 2013.
· Free cash flow was EUR 153 million in the first quarter 2014, compared to EUR 239 million in the first quarter 2013 and EUR 180 million in the fourth quarter 2013. In the first quarter 2014, Networks free cash flow was affected negatively by approximately EUR 110 million of restructuring-related outflows.
Corporate Developments
On April 29, 2014 Nokia announced a new strategy, a program to optimize capital structure and the leadership team of the Nokia Group, including Rajeev Suri as President and Chief Executive Officer. As part of that announcement Nokia announced that NSN will now be known as Networks and will operate under the Nokia brand. Additionally, in line with the earlier announcement, Jesper Ovesen stepped down from his role as Executive Chairman of Nokia Solutions and Networks upon the closing of the transaction whereby Nokia sold substantially all of its Devices & Services business to Microsoft on Friday April 25, 2014.
(1) Nokia Solutions and Networks, also referred to as NSN, was renamed as Networks and will operate under the Nokia brand. The figures presented on a Networks standalone basis in this Interim Report may differ from those reported by Nokia Corporation (Nokia) due to the treatment of discontinued operations and certain accounting presentation differences. In addition, the presentation of underlying business performance information by Nokia and Networks differs due to presentation differences adopted by Nokia (non-IFRS information) and Networks (information before specific items) and the items excluded by each in their respective presentations.
(2) The before specific items financial measures exclude specific items for all periods: restructuring charges, country/contract exit charges, purchase price accounting related charges and other one-time charges. For an analysis of specific items, refer to page 15 of this report.

References to EBITDA are to profit/loss for the period from continuing operations, before income tax expense, financial income and expenses, depreciation, amortization and share of results of associates. Accordingly, EBITDA can be extracted from the consolidated financial statements by taking profit/loss for the period and adding back income tax expense, financial income and expenses, depreciation, amortization and share of results of associates.
Networks is not presenting EBITDA or EBITDA-based measures as measures of its results of operations. EBITDA and EBITDA-based measures have important limitations as an analytical tool, and they should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results of operations.

Net sales
The year-on-year decrease of 14% in Networks net sales in the first quarter of 2014 was partially due to divestments of businesses not consistent with its strategic focus, as well as the exiting of certain customer contracts and countries. Excluding these two factors, our net sales in the first quarter of 2014 declined year-on-year by approximately 10%, primarily due to lower net sales in Global Services. Mobile Broadband net sales increased slightly year-on-year. Additionally, our net sales were negatively affected by foreign currency fluctuations. Excluding the negative effect of foreign currency fluctuations and the divestments of businesses not consistent with our strategic focus, as well as the exiting of certain customer contracts and countries, our net sales would have decreased approximately 6% year-on-year.
The year-on-year decrease of 25% in Global Services net sales in the first quarter of 2014 was primarily due to a reduction in network implementation and maintenance activity, consistent with lower levels of large scale network deployments, and the exiting of certain customer contracts and countries. In the first quarter of 2014, Mobile Broadband net sales benefited from higher net sales in core networks and LTE, offset by lower net sales in other radio technologies, resulting in a slight net sales increase year-on-year. Additionally, Mobile Broadband net sales were adversely affected by shortages of certain components, which we expect to continue to impact our business at least through the end of the second quarter of 2014.
On a regional basis, compared to the first quarter of 2013, net sales in North America declined 35%, primarily due to a cyclical slow down in LTE roll-outs; in Middle East and Africa net sales declined 36% and 23%, respectively, primarily due to the focus on a specific set of countries; in Latin America
net sales declined 27%, primarily due to constrained operator spending and the exit of certain projects in line with Networks strategy; in Asia Pacific net sales declined 24% primarily due to a decline from the height of LTE network roll-outs in the first quarter of 2013 in Korea; and in Europe net sales declined 9%, primarily due to contract exits in line with our strategy, and operator spending that, on balance, was constrained; and net sales in Greater China increased 26% primarily due to the new TD-LTE network roll-outs. For regional data, refer to Note 3, Segment information.
The sequential decrease of 25% in Networks net sales in the first quarter of 2014 reflects a seasonal decrease in sales in both Global Services and Mobile Broadband. The sequential decrease in Global Services was primarily due to a reduction in network implementation and maintenance activity. The decrease in Mobile Broadband net sales was driven by decline in legacy radio technologies. On a regional basis, our net sales decreased sequentially primarily due to Asia, Middle East and Africa, and Europe and Latin America.
In the first quarter of 2014, Global Services represented 46% of Networks net sales, compared to 52% in the first quarter of 2013 and 50% in the fourth quarter of 2013. In the first quarter of 2014, Mobile Broadband represented 54% of our net sales, compared to 46% in the first quarter of 2013 and 50% in the fourth quarter of 2013.
At constant currency*, Networks net sales would have decreased 10% year-on-year and decreased 23% sequentially. Excluding the negative effect of foreign currency fluctuations and the divestments of businesses not consistent with our strategic focus, as well as the exiting of certain customer contracts and countries, our net sales would have decreased 6% year-on-year and decreased 23% sequentially.
Gross margin
On a year-on-year basis, the increase in Networks gross margin before specific items in the first quarter of 2014 was primarily due to a higher proportion of software sales mainly in Japan, a higher gross margin in Global Services related to significant efficiency improvements as a result of its transformation program and a higher proportion of Mobile Broadband in the overall sales mix.
On a sequential basis, the increase in Networks gross margin before specific items in the first quarter of 2014 was primarily due to a higher proportion of software sales mainly in Japan, and a higher proportion of Mobile Broadband in the overall sales mix. The improved margin within Mobile Broadband was primarily due to lower costs in connection with the technology shift to TD-LTE in China.
Operating expenses
Networks research and development expenses before specific items decreased 4% year-on-year in the first quarter of 2014. On a year-on-year basis, research and development expenses before specific items were lower, primarily due to business divestments and reduced investments in business activities that are not consistent with our focused strategy, as well as increased research and development efficiency, partially offset by higher investments in areas that are consistent with our focused strategy, most notably LTE. On a sequential basis, research and development expenses before specific items decreased 7%, primarily due to lower accrued incentive expenses, which were at an elevated level in the fourth quarter of 2013, and improved research and development efficiency.
On a year-on-year basis, Networks selling, general and administrative expenses before specific items decreased 2%, primarily due to structural cost savings from its transformation and restructuring program. On a sequential basis, selling, general and administrative expenses before specific items decreased 11%, consistent with seasonally lower net sales and lower accrued incentive expenses, which were at an elevated level in the fourth quarter of 2013.
Networks other income and expenses before specific items was an expense of EUR 2 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared to an income of EUR 7 million in the first quarter of 2013, and an expense of EUR 50 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. On a sequential basis, our other income and expenses before specific items was a lower expense due to the absence of the following factors, which resulted in elevated expense levels in the fourth quarter of 2013: a non-recurring litigation provision, a write down of a VAT receivable, an increase in doubtful account allowances, and asset retirement charges.
*Excluding the impact of changes in exchange rates in comparison to the Euro, Networks reporting currency.
Operating profit
The year-on-year increase in Networks operating profit before specific items in the first quarter of 2014 was primarily due to a higher operating profit before specific items in Global Services, partially offset by a lower operating profit before specific items in Mobile Broadband. On a year-on-year basis, the increase in Global Services operating profit before specific items was primarily due to higher gross profit. On a year-on-year basis, the decrease in Mobile Broadband operating profit before specific items was primarily due to lower gross profit.
The sequential decrease in Networks operating profit before specific items in the first quarter of 2014 was primarily due to the lower operating profit before specific items in Global Services, and to a lesser degree, a lower operating profit before specific items in Mobile Broadband. On a sequential basis, the decrease in Global Services operating profit before specific items was primarily due to seasonally lower net sales contributing to lower gross profit, partially offset by lower operating expenses. On a sequential basis, the decrease in Mobile Broadband operating profit before specific items was primarily due to seasonally lower net sales contributing to lower gross profit, partially offset by lower operating expenses.
Financial income and expenses
In the first quarter of 2014, Networks incurred a net expense in financial income and expenses of EUR 26 million compared to a net expense of EUR 75 million in the first quarter of 2013 and a net expense of EUR 38 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. On a year-on-year basis, the reduction in the net financial expense was primarily due to higher net foreign exchange losses in the first quarter of 2013, resulting mainly from the weakening of currencies that could not be hedged.
Income tax expense
In the first quarter of 2014, Networks incurred an income tax expense of EUR 29 million compared to EUR 73 million in the first quarter of 2013 and EUR 32 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. The Groups income tax expense fluctuates from quarter to quarter as our effective tax rate varies significantly due to the non-recognition of the Finnish deferred tax assets as well as payments of foreign withholding taxes in certain overseas jurisdictions, for which no benefit is recorded, and the mix of profitability in our subsidiaries.
Networks periodically assesses its unrecognized deferred tax assets. At March 31, 2014, we have a total of approximately EUR 1.5 billion unrecognized net deferred tax assets, of which approximately EUR 1.2 billion relate to Finland and have not been recognized in the financial statements due to our history of losses in Finland. A significant portion of our Finnish deferred tax assets is indefinite in nature and available against future Finnish taxable income. We will continue to closely monitor the realizability of these deferred tax assets, including assessing future financial performance in Finland. Should the recent improvements in our financial results be sustained, we may recognize all or part of the unrecognized deferred tax asset in the future.
Net profit
Networks reported a net profit of EUR 124 million for the first quarter of 2014, up from a net loss of EUR 143 million in the first quarter of 2013 and down from a net profit of EUR 174 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. On a year-on-year basis, our result in the first quarter of 2014 has improved significantly due to lower restructuring related charges and improved profitability as part of our successful transformation to date. The sequential decrease in our net profit in the first quarter of 2014 was primarily due to the lower operating profit.
Transformation and restructuring program (announced in November 2011)
During the first quarter of 2014, restructuring related charges were approximately EUR 15 million and the related cash outflows were approximately EUR 110 million. At March 31, 2014, since the commencement of the global transformation and restructuring program, cumulative restructuring charges amounted to approximately EUR 1 850 million, and cumulative related cash outflows amounted to approximately EUR 1 350 million. Networks continues to estimate cumulative restructuring related charges and related cash outflows to be approximately EUR 1 950 million and EUR 1 700 million, respectively, by the end of 2014. Changes in estimates of timing or amounts of costs to be incurred and associated cash flows may become necessary as the transformation and restructuring program is being completed.
At the end of the first quarter of 2014, Networks had approximately 48 500 employees, a reduction of approximately 8 200 employees compared to the end of the first quarter of 2013, and a reduction of approximately 100 employees compared to the end of the fourth quarter of 2013.
Financial position
At March 31, 2014, non-current assets remained at EUR 1.5 billion, current assets remained at EUR 7.3 billion and non-current liabilities at EUR 1.3 billion in comparison to December 31, 2013. Current liabilities increased from EUR 5.2 billion at December 31, 2013 to EUR 5.3 billion at March 31, 2014 mainly due to an increase in advance payments received.

(1) Free cash flow represents the sum of net cash from operating activities and net cash used in investing activities less proceeds from/purchases of current available-for-sale investments, liquid assets. The proceeds from/purchases of current available-for-sale investments, liquid assets, are presented in the Condensed Interim Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
(2) Capital expenditures represent purchases of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.
(3) Includes EUR 25 million (EUR 76 million at December 31, 2013) non-interest bearing liabilities relating to cash held temporarily due to divested businesses where the Group continues to perform services within a contractually defined scope for a specified timeframe. The balances at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2013 also included EUR 11 million and EUR 7 million, respectively, related to the sale of receivable arrangements in China.
(4) Consists of total cash and other liquid assets less total loans and borrowings. Total loans and borrowings consist of long-term interest-bearing liabilities, the current portion of long-term loans and short-term borrowings. Refer to Note 6, Loans and borrowings.
In the first quarter of 2014, Networks continued its strong performance from a cash perspective, generating EUR 153 million free cash flow, compared to EUR 239 million in the first quarter 2013 and EUR 180 million in the fourth quarter 2013. In the first quarter 2014, our free cash flow was affected negatively by approximately EUR 110 million of restructuring-related outflows.
For an analysis of Networks loans and borrowings related commitments at March 31, 2014, refer to Note 6, Loans and borrowings.

(1) Ordinary share capital comprises EUR 400 thousand.
(2) Relates primarily to liquidation of a Group subsidiary.
The notes are an integral part of these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
1. Accounting principles
Basis of presentation
This report comprises Networks (the Group) unaudited condensed interim consolidated income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of cash flows and statement of changes in shareholders equity for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, and the unaudited consolidated statement of financial position as at March 31, 2014 (the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements). The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been derived from the Groups accounting records for the respective periods and represent non-statutory interim financial statements. The audited consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31, 2013 was derived from the Networks (formerly NSN) annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 (the 2013 consolidated financial statements).
The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and in conformity with IFRS as adopted by the European Union (EU). The consolidated financial statements are presented in millions of euro (EURm).
Accounting policies
The same accounting policies, presentation and methods of computation have been followed in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as were applied in the preparation of the 2013 consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 1, Accounting principles, of the 2013 consolidated financial statements. The financial statements in this condensed report do not contain all the information included in the 2013 consolidated financial statements.
Adoption of new and amended standards
On January 1, 2014, the Group adopted the following revised standards issued by the IASB that are relevant to its operations and effective for accounting periods commencing on or after January 1, 2014:
Amendment to IAS 32, Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
The amendment clarified the meaning of currently has a legally enforceable right to set-off.
Amendments to IAS 36, Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets
The amendment added guidance on the disclosure of recoverable amounts and discount rates.
Amendments to IAS 19, Defined Benefit Plans: Employee Contributions
The amendment clarified the requirements that relate to how contributions from employees or third parties that are linked to service should be attributed to periods of service.
IFRIC 21, Levies, an interpretation of IAS 37, Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
The interpretation clarified that the obligating event giving rise to a liability to pay a levy to a government agency is the activity that triggers the payment.
The adoptation of these amendments and guidance did not have a material impact on the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
Seasonality
The Group experiences seasonality. The Groups sales are generally higher in the last quarter of the year compared with the first quarter of the following year due to network operators planning, budgeting and spending cycles.
Estimates
The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from those estimates. In preparing these condensed interim financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Groups accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the 2013 consolidated financial statements.
2. Specific items
The Group separately identifies and discloses certain items, referred to as specific items, by virtue of size, nature or occurrence, including restructuring charges, country/contract exit charges, purchase price accounting (PPA) related charges and asset impairment charges. This is consistent with the way that financial performance is measured by management and reported to the senior management team and Board of Directors, and it assists in providing a meaningful analysis of operating results by excluding items that may not be indicative of the operating results of the Groups business.
The nature of the specific items recognized in the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 has not materially changed since December 31, 2013 and as such, the rationale provided in Note 2, Specific items, of the 2013 consolidated financial statements is still valid.

Restructuring charges in the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 consist primarily of personnel restructuring charges. In the first quarter of 2013, restructuring charges consisted primarily of real estate costs.
The country/contract exit charges relate to the realignment of the Groups customer contract and geographic market portfolio and the related charges to terminate certain underperforming contracts and to withdraw from certain countries in line with the Groups restructuring program.
Purchase price accounting (PPA) related charges primarily consist of the amortization of finite lived intangible assets (customer relationships, developed technology and licenses to use tradename and trademark) recognized in the purchase price allocation stemming from the Groups formation and subsequent business combinations. The purchase price accounting related charges arising from the Groups formation were fully amortized at the end of the first quarter of 2013.
The other one-time charges included in selling, administrative and general expenses consist of consultancy fees incurred in connection with the Groups restructuring program announced in 2011.
For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the other one-time charges included in other expenses relate to a provision in connection with the closure of a manufacturing facility. Additionally, the Groups discontinued operations incurred EUR 5 million of other one-time charges for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013.

4. Taxation
In the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, the Group incurred an income tax expense of EUR 29 million, compared to an income tax expense of EUR 73 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013. The Groups income tax expense fluctuates from quarter to quarter as the Groups effective tax rate varies significantly due to the non-recognition of the Finnish deferred tax assets as well as payments of foreign withholding taxes in certain overseas jurisdictions, for which no benefit is recorded, and the mix of profitability in subsidiaries.
The Group periodically assesses its unrecognized deferred tax assets. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, the Group has a total of approximately EUR 1.5 billion unrecognized net deferred tax assets, of which approximately EUR 1.2 billion relate to Finland and have not been recognized in the financial statements due to the Groups history of losses in Finland. A significant portion of the Groups Finnish deferred tax assets are indefinite in nature and available against future Finnish taxable income. The Group will continue to closely monitor the realizability of these deferred tax assets, including assessing future financial performance in Finland. Should the recent improvements in financial results be sustained, all or part of the unrecognized deferred tax assets may be recognized in the future.

(1) Includes EUR 11 million (EUR 10 million at December 31, 2013) relating to customer financing.
(2) Includes investments carried at fair value and investments in publicly quoted equity shares of EUR 27 million and EUR 2 million, respectively (EUR 28 million and EUR 2 million at December 31, 2013).
(3) Includes EUR 31 million (EUR 29 million at December 31, 2013) relating to customer financing.
(4) Consists of available-for-sale investments, cash equivalents.
The fair value of long-term loans receivable is measured by amortizing the future cash flows of customer loans using the current credit risk factor (discount factor) of the borrower, whereas the carrying amount is based on the effective interest rate. The fair values of accounts receivable and accounts payable are assumed to approximate their carrying amounts due to their short-term nature. The fair values are estimated to be equal to the carrying amounts for short-term financial assets and financial liabilities due to the limited credit risk and short maturity. The fair value of long-term interest bearing liabilities is determined with reference to quoted yield curves. The fair value of short-term borrowings is assumed to approximate the carrying amount due to its short-term nature. For information on the valuation of items measured at fair value refer to Note 1, Accounting principles, of the 2013 consolidated financial statements.
Financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are categorized based on the amount of unobservable inputs used to measure their fair value. Three hierarchical levels are based on the increasing amount of judgment associated with the inputs used to derive fair valuation for these assets and liabilities. At the end of each reporting period, the Group categorizes its financial assets and liabilities to an appropriate level of the fair value hierarchy. Refer to Note 20, Fair value of financial instruments, of the 2013 consolidated financial statements.
