Nokia

  • Big profit warning from Nokia last week.
  • They are seeing margin pressure from competition, and are having to make bigger investments into next generation mobile networks (5G).
  • As a result they are also cutting the dividend.
  • This competitor driven intensity ahead of a new investment cycle (5G) is very typical of the telecoms equipment industry.
  • Their customers merging is not helping as they likely standardise on one supplier. They are also delaying 5G roll outs as a result.
