The complete first quarter 2015 interim report with tables is available at http://company.nokia.com/en/financials. Investors should not rely on summaries of our interim reports only, but should review the complete interim reports with tables.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
· Net sales in Q1 2015 of EUR 3.2 billion (EUR 2.7 billion in Q1 2014), up 20% year-on-year
· Non-IFRS diluted EPS in Q1 2015 of EUR 0.05 (EUR 0.04 in Q1 2014), an increase of 25% year-on-year; reported diluted EPS in Q1 2015 of EUR 0.05 (EUR 0.03 in Q1 2014), up 67% year-on-year
Nokia Networks
· 15% year-on-year net sales growth driven by growth in four out of our six regions, with non-IFRS operating margin declining to 3.2% from 9.3%
· 21% year-on-year growth in Global Services net sales, primarily driven by strong growth in the network implementation business line. 10% year-on-year growth in Mobile Broadband net sales, primarily driven by overall radio technologies, particularly LTE
· 61% year-on-year decline in non-IFRS operating profit primarily driven by lower software sales, lower non-IFRS gross profit in the systems integration business line, the short-term impact of strategic entry deals, higher non-IFRS operating expenses due to foreign exchange impacts and increased investments in LTE, 5G and cloud core, and more challenging market conditions
HERE
· 25% year-on-year growth in net sales, with 29% year-on-year increase in sales of new vehicle licenses for embedded navigation systems
· 90% year-on-year growth in non-IFRS operating profit, with non-IFRS operating margin expanding to 7.3% from 4.8%
Nokia Technologies
· 103% year-on-year growth in net sales and 124% growth in non-IFRS operating profit, primarily due to non-recurring adjustments to accrued net sales from existing agreements, revenue share related to previously divested intellectual property rights, and intellectual property rights divested in the first quarter 2015. In addition, net sales and non-IFRS operating profit benefitted from higher intellectual property licensing income from existing licensees

Subsequent events
After the end of the first quarter 2015, Nokia announced it had entered into a memorandum of understanding regarding a combination with Alcatel-Lucent, and that it had initiated a strategic review process related to HERE. Additionally, there were positive developments in Nokias venture fund investments after the end of the first quarter. Please refer to page 5 in Nokias complete Q1 2015 interim report for additional information related to these events.
CEO statement
Nokia delivered a 20% increase in net sales and 25% increase in earnings per share in the first quarter. Underlying these results was excellent performance from HERE and Nokia Technologies, while good growth at Nokia Networks was offset by unsatisfactory profitability.
I remain confident that our lean operating model, ongoing focus on cost management, and the current strength of our portfolio will enable us to meet our 2015 goals for Nokia Networks. The business delivered healthy year-on-year growth even after adjusting for currency fluctuations, although a number of factors in the quarter had a negative impact on profitability. We expect some of these negative factors to ease, particularly in the second half of 2015.
HEREs excellent momentum in the automotive sector continued, helping the business deliver 25% year-on-year growth and improved profitability. As we proceed with the strategic review that we announced on April 15, we are considering our options in order to determine what is best for Nokia shareholders and best for HERE. I am very pleased with HEREs performance and firmly believe that it will have a bright future, either with Nokia or with new ownership.
Nokia Technologies also had a strong quarter with year on year sales up more than 100% and operating margin up sharply both year-on-year and sequentially. The business benefitted in the quarter from some non-recurring effects and revenue share from previously divested intellectual property rights. I am more confident than ever that licensing activities are tracking well and that there is a robust pipeline of potential new licensees. In addition, I believe that we are focusing on the right innovation opportunities and that the necessary cost discipline is in place.
Shortly after the end of the quarter, we announced a landmark deal with Alcatel-Lucent. The strategic logic of this proposed transaction is strong and we believe that it will provide long term benefits to shareholders of both Nokia and Alcatel-Lucent. We are moving fast on the necessary integration planning, and have already established a structure designed to minimize disruption to our ongoing business. We will bring the same operational discipline to our integration activities that we have successfully applied to the earlier transformation at Nokia Networks.
Rajeev Suri
President and CEO of Nokia
Nokia in Q1 2015
The following discussion is of Nokia Groups reported results for the first quarter 2015 which comprise the results of Nokias three businesses Nokia Networks, HERE and Nokia Technologies, as well as Group Common Functions. Comparisons are given to the first quarter 2014 and fourth quarter 2014 results, unless otherwise indicated.
Financial discussion
Net sales
Nokias net sales increased 20% year-on-year and declined 16% sequentially. At constant currency, Nokias net sales would have increased 11% year-on-year and declined 21% sequentially.
Year-on-year discussion
The year-on-year increase in Nokias net sales in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to higher net sales in Nokia Networks, Nokia Technologies and, to a lesser extent, in HERE.
Sequential discussion
The sequential decline in Nokias net sales in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to seasonally lower net sales in Nokia Networks and, to a lesser extent, in HERE. This was partially offset by higher net sales in Nokia Technologies.
Non-IFRS Operating profit
Year-on-year discussion
Nokias non-IFRS operating profit declined 13% year-on-year in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to a decline in non-IFRS operating profit in Nokia Networks, partially offset by increases in non-IFRS operating profit in Nokia Technologies and, to a lesser extent, in HERE.
Nokias non-IFRS other income and expenses was an expense of EUR 19 million in the first quarter 2015, compared to an income of EUR 11 million in the first quarter 2014. On a year-on-year basis, the change in Nokias non-IFRS other income and expenses was primarily due to lower other income in Group Common Functions and higher foreign exchange hedging related losses.
Sequential discussion
Nokias non-IFRS operating profit declined 49% sequentially in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to a decline in non-IFRS operating profit in Nokia Networks, partially offset by an increase in non-IFRS operating profit in Nokia Technologies.
Nokias non-IFRS other income and expenses was an expense of EUR 19 million in the first quarter 2015, compared to an expense of EUR 2 million in the fourth quarter 2014. On a sequential basis, the change in Nokias non-IFRS other income and expenses was primarily due to foreign exchange hedging related losses.
Non-IFRS Profit
The share of results of associated companies in the first quarter 2015 includes an approximately EUR 25 million out of period adjustment. Nokia has historically accounted for the results of the associated company in
arrears as the results have not been material. Due to an increase in the entitys earnings, the amounts reflected in the first quarter 2015 should have been recorded in the fourth quarter 2014.
Year-on-year discussion
Nokias non-IFRS profit increased 16% on a year-on-year basis in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to lower non-IFRS financial expenses and the approximately EUR 25 million out of period adjustment mentioned above, partially offset by lower non-IFRS operating profit and, to a lesser extent, higher non-IFRS tax expenses. In the first quarter 2015 Nokias non-IFRS tax expense was based on an effective tax rate of approximately 25%, and this resulted in a higher non-IFRS tax expense than in the first quarter 2014. However, the tax expenses in the first quarter of 2014 and 2015 are not directly comparable due to the fact that Nokias deferred tax assets in Finland and Germany were subject to valuation allowances until the third quarter of 2014.
Sequential discussion
Sequentially, Nokias non-IFRS profit declined 44% in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to a decline in non-IFRS operating profit, partially offset by lower non-IFRS tax expenses, the approximately EUR 25 million out of period adjustment mentioned above and lower non-IFRS financial expenses.

Subsequent events
After the end of the first quarter 2015, Nokia announced it had entered into a memorandum of understanding regarding a combination with Alcatel-Lucent, and that it had initiated a strategic review process related to HERE. Additionally, there were positive developments in Nokias venture fund investments after the end of the first quarter. Please refer to page 5 for additional information related to these events.
CEO statement
Nokia delivered a 20% increase in net sales and 25% increase in earnings per share in the first quarter. Underlying these results was excellent performance from HERE and Nokia Technologies, while good growth at Nokia Networks was offset by unsatisfactory profitability.
I remain confident that our lean operating model, ongoing focus on cost management, and the current strength of our portfolio will enable us to meet our 2015 goals for Nokia Networks. The business delivered healthy year-on-year growth even after adjusting for currency fluctuations, although a number of factors in the quarter had a negative impact on profitability. We expect some of these negative factors to ease, particularly in the second half of 2015.
HEREs excellent momentum in the automotive sector continued, helping the business deliver 25% year-on-year growth and improved profitability. As we proceed with the strategic review that we announced on April 15, we are considering our options in order to determine what is best for Nokia shareholders and best for HERE. I am very pleased with HEREs performance and firmly believe that it will have a bright future, either with Nokia or with new ownership.
Nokia Technologies also had a strong quarter with year-on-year sales up more than 100% and operating margin up sharply both year on year and sequentially. The business benefitted in the quarter from some non-recurring effects and revenue share from previously divested intellectual property rights. I am more confident than ever that licensing activities are tracking well and that there is a robust pipeline of potential new licensees. In addition, I believe that we are focusing on the right innovation opportunities and that the necessary cost discipline is in place.
Shortly after the end of the quarter, we announced a landmark deal with Alcatel-Lucent. The strategic logic of this proposed transaction is strong and we believe that it will provide long term benefits to shareholders of both Nokia and Alcatel-Lucent. We are moving fast on the necessary integration planning, and have already established a structure designed to minimize disruption to our ongoing business. We will bring the same operational discipline to our integration activities that we have successfully applied to the earlier transformation at Nokia Networks.

President and CEO of Nokia
Nokia in Q1 2015
The following discussion is of Nokia Groups reported results for the first quarter 2015 which comprise the results of Nokias three businesses Nokia Networks, HERE and Nokia Technologies, as well as Group Common Functions. Comparisons are given to the first quarter 2014 and fourth quarter 2014 results, unless otherwise indicated.
Financial discussion
Net sales
Nokias net sales increased 20% year-on-year and declined 16% sequentially. At constant currency, Nokias net sales would have increased 11% year-on-year and declined 21% sequentially.
Year-on-year discussion
The year-on-year increase in Nokias net sales in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to higher net sales in Nokia Networks, Nokia Technologies and, to a lesser extent, in HERE.
Sequential discussion
The sequential decline in Nokias net sales in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to seasonally lower net sales in Nokia Networks and, to a lesser extent, in HERE. This was partially offset by higher net sales in Nokia Technologies.
Non-IFRS Operating profit
Year-on-year discussion
Nokias non-IFRS operating profit declined 13% year-on-year in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to a decline in non-IFRS operating profit in Nokia Networks, partially offset by increases in non-IFRS operating profit in Nokia Technologies and, to a lesser extent, in HERE.
Nokias non-IFRS other income and expenses was an expense of EUR 19 million in the first quarter 2015, compared to an income of EUR 11 million in the first quarter 2014. On a year-on-year basis, the change in Nokias non-IFRS other income and expenses was primarily due to lower other income in Group Common Functions and higher foreign exchange hedging related losses.
Sequential discussion
Nokias non-IFRS operating profit declined 49% sequentially in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to a decline in non-IFRS operating profit in Nokia Networks, partially offset by an increase in non-IFRS operating profit in Nokia Technologies.
Nokias non-IFRS other income and expenses was an expense of EUR 19 million in the first quarter 2015, compared to an expense of EUR 2 million in the fourth quarter 2014. On a sequential basis, the change in Nokias non-IFRS other income and expenses was primarily due to foreign exchange hedging related losses.
Non-IFRS Profit
The share of results of associated companies in the first quarter 2015 includes an approximately EUR 25 million out of period adjustment. Nokia has historically accounted for the results of the associated company in arrears as the results have not been material. Due to an increase in the entitys earnings, the amounts reflected in the first quarter 2015 should have been recorded in the fourth quarter 2014.
Year-on-year discussion
Nokias non-IFRS profit increased 16% on a year-on-year basis in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to lower non-IFRS financial expenses and the approximately EUR 25 million out of period adjustment mentioned above, partially offset by lower non-IFRS operating profit and, to a lesser extent, higher non-IFRS tax expenses. In the first quarter 2015 Nokias non-IFRS tax expense was based on an effective tax rate of approximately 25%, and this resulted in a higher non-IFRS tax expense than in the first quarter 2014. However, the tax expenses in the first quarter of 2014 and 2015 are not directly comparable due to the fact that Nokias deferred tax assets in Finland and Germany were subject to valuation allowances until the third quarter of 2014.
Sequential discussion
Sequentially, Nokias non-IFRS profit declined 44% in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to a decline in non-IFRS operating profit, partially offset by lower non-IFRS tax expenses, the approximately EUR 25 million out of period adjustment mentioned above and lower non-IFRS financial expenses.
Subsequent events
Nokia and Alcatel-Lucent to combine to create an innovation leader in next generation technology and services for an IP connected world
On April 15, 2015, Nokia and Alcatel-Lucent announced their intention to combine to create an innovation leader in next generation technology and services for an IP connected world. The two companies entered into a memorandum of understanding under which Nokia will make an offer for all of the equity securities issued by Alcatel-Lucent, through a public exchange offer in France and in the United States, on the basis of 0.55 of a new Nokia share for every Alcatel-Lucent share.
The combined company announced to target approximately EUR 900 million of operating cost synergies to be achieved on a full year basis in 2019. The operating cost synergies are expected to create a long-term structural cost advantage. The combined company would also target approximately EUR 200 million of reductions in interest expenses to be achieved on a full year basis in 2017. The transaction is expected to be accretive to Nokia earnings on a non-IFRS basis in 2017. These targets all assume closing of the transaction in the first half of 2016. The combined company is expected to have a strong balance sheet, with combined net cash at December 31, 2014 of EUR 7.4 billion, assuming conversion of all Nokia and Alcatel-Lucent convertible bonds.
Each companys Board of Directors approved the terms of the proposed transaction, which is expected to close in the first half of 2016. The proposed transaction is subject to approval by Nokias shareholders, completion of relevant works council consultations, receipt of regulatory approvals and other customary conditions.
Further information on the transaction can be found at: www.newconnectivity.com.
Nokia has initiated a review of strategic options for its HERE business
On April 15, 2015, Nokia announced that it has initiated a review of strategic options, including a potential divestment, for its HERE business. The Board of Directors of Nokia believes this is the right moment to assess the position of HERE within the proposed new Nokia business. The strategic review of HERE is on-going and it may or may not result in a transaction. Any further announcements about HERE will be made as and when appropriate.
Venture fund investments
Nokia makes technology related investments through venture funds. A significant part of these investments are managed by Nokia Growth Partners (NGP), which specializes in growth-stage investing. Nokia has also made investments through BlueRun Ventures (BRV), which focuses on early stage opportunities.
After the end of the first quarter, NGP sold its holdings in Ganji.com, a major online local services marketplace platform in China to 58.com. Under the terms of the transaction NGP will receive a combination of 58.com shares and cash. BRV had also invested in Ganji.com and is participating in the transaction. The transaction values Nokias indirect holdings at approximately EUR 200 million. Nokia expects to record benefits from the
transaction when cash distributions are made. The final amount and timing of benefits will depend on the value and date at which the venture funds liquidate the portion of the transaction that was made in shares.
At the end of the first quarter 2015, the fair value of our venture fund investments, equalled EUR 978 million, as compared to EUR 778 million at December 31, 2014. This amount is included in the available for sale investments, under non-current assets, in Nokias balance sheet.

Financial discussion
Net sales by segment
In the first quarter 2015, Mobile Broadband represented 52% of Nokia Networks net sales, compared to 54% in the first quarter 2014 and 52% in the fourth quarter 2014. In the first quarter 2015, Global Services represented 48% of Nokia Networks net sales, compared to 46% in the first quarter 2014 and 47% in the fourth quarter 2014.
Year-on-year discussion
The year-on-year increase of 15% in Nokia Networks net sales in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to an increase in net sales in Global Services and, to a lesser extent, in Mobile Broadband.
Global Services net sales increased 21% year-on-year in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to particularly strong growth in the network implementation business line and, to a lesser extent, growth in network planning and optimization as well as care business lines.
Mobile Broadband net sales increased 10% year-on-year in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to growth in overall radio technologies, with particular strength in LTE. This was partially offset by a year-on-year decline in core networking technologies.
At constant currency, Nokia Networks net sales would have increased 5% year-on-year.
Sequential discussion
The sequential decline of 21% in Nokia Networks net sales in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to a decline in net sales in both Mobile Broadband and Global Services and, to a lesser extent, the absence of approximately EUR 25 million of non-recurring intellectual property rights (IPR) income, which benefitted Nokia Networks net sales in the fourth quarter 2014.
Mobile Broadband net sales declined 22% sequentially in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to seasonally lower net sales in overall radio technologies and core networking technologies. Within radio technologies, the decline was primarily due to declines in mature radio technologies, and to a lesser extent in LTE.
Global Services net sales declined 18% sequentially in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to seasonally lower net sales in network implementation and systems integration, as well as seasonal declines in other business lines.
At constant currency, Nokia Networks net sales would have declined 25% sequentially.

Net sales by region
Year-on-year discussion
On a regional basis, compared to the first quarter 2014, Nokia Networks net sales in North America increased 47%, primarily driven by higher net sales in Global Services, including the benefit from the acquisition of SAC Wireless. In addition, Nokia Networks net sales in North America increased, to a slightly lesser extent, due to higher net sales in Mobile Broadband. In Asia-Pacific, net sales increased 14%, primarily driven by higher Global Services net sales across the region, partially offset by a slight decline in Mobile Broadband net sales. The overall growth in Asia-Pacific was primarily due to higher Mobile Broadband and Global Services net sales in India, partially offset by lower Mobile Broadband net sales in Japan. In Greater China, net sales increased 31% driven by higher net sales in Global Services and, to a lesser extent, in Mobile Broadband. In Middle East and Africa, net sales increased 27% driven by higher net sales in both Mobile Broadband and Global Services. In Latin America, net sales declined 5% driven by lower net sales in both Global Services and Mobile Broadband. The overall decline in Latin America was primarily due to lower net sales in Brazil partially offset by higher net sales in Argentina. In Europe, net sales declined 2%, primarily driven by lower Global Services net sales. The overall decline in Europe was primarily due to lower net sales in Germany, partially offset by higher net sales in Italy and Russia.
Sequential discussion
On a regional basis, compared to the fourth quarter 2014, Nokia Networks net sales in Europe declined 29%, primarily driven by seasonally lower net sales in both Mobile Broadband and, to a lesser extent, in Global Services. The overall decline in Europe was primarily due to lower net sales in Russia and Germany. In North America, net sales declined 25%, primarily driven by seasonally lower net sales in both Global Services and Mobile Broadband, as well as the absence of non-recurring IPR income, which benefitted Nokia Networks net sales in the fourth quarter 2014. In Middle East and Africa, net sales declined 35%, primarily driven by seasonally lower net sales in both Global Services and Mobile Broadband, particularly in the Middle East. In Latin America, net sales declined 35%, primarily driven by seasonally lower net sales in both Global Services and Mobile Broadband, particularly in Colombia. In Greater China, net sales declined 12%, primarily driven by seasonally lower net sales in both Mobile Broadband and, to a lesser extent, in Global Services. The overall decline in Greater China was primarily due to lower net sales in China, partially offset by higher net sales in Taiwan. In
Asia-Pacific, net sales declined 4%, primarily driven by seasonally lower net sales in both Mobile Broadband and Global Services. The overall decline in Asia-Pacific was primarily due to lower net sales across the region, most notably in Indonesia and Australia, partially offset by higher net sales in India and Japan.
Non-IFRS Operating profit
Year-on-year discussion
The year-on-year decline in Nokia Networks non-IFRS operating profit in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to Mobile Broadband and, to a lesser extent, Global Services. On a year-on-year basis, the declines in both Mobile Broadband and Global Services non-IFRS operating profit in the first quarter 2015 were primarily due to higher non-IFRS operating expenses and, to a lesser extent, lower non-IFRS gross profit.
On a year-on-year basis, Nokia Networks non-IFRS gross margin declined primarily due to a lower proportion of software and a higher proportion of the network implementation business line in the sales mix. In addition, Nokia Networks non-IFRS gross margin was negatively impacted by lower non-IFRS gross margin within the systems integration business line, higher costs related to the short-term impact of strategic entry deals, and more challenging market conditions. The proportion of high margin software sales in the Nokia Networks sales mix was approximately 5 percentage points lower in the first quarter 2015 compared to the first quarter 2014.
The slight year-on-year decline in non-IFRS gross profit in Mobile Broadband in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to lower non-IFRS gross profit in core networking technologies, partially offset by higher non-IFRS gross profit in overall radio technologies. The lower non-IFRS gross profit in core networking technologies was primarily attributable to lower software sales. In addition, non-IFRS gross profit in Mobile Broadband was negatively impacted by higher costs related to the short-term impact of strategic entry deals, and more challenging market conditions.
The slight year-on-year decline in Global Services non-IFRS gross profit in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to the absence of favourable regional mix that benefitted the systems integration business line in the first quarter 2014. This was partially offset by a higher non-IFRS gross profit in the care business line.
The year-on-year increase in Nokia Networks non-IFRS research and development expenses in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to increased investments in LTE, 5G and cloud core. On a year-on-year basis, Nokia Networks non-IFRS selling, general and administrative expenses increased primarily due to higher personnel expenses.
Nokia Networks non-IFRS other income and expenses was an expense of EUR 14 million in the first quarter 2015, compared to an expense of EUR 2 million in the first quarter 2014. On a year-on-year basis, the change in Nokia Networks non-IFRS other income and expenses was primarily due to foreign exchange hedging related losses.
On a year-on-year basis, foreign exchange fluctuations had a significant positive impact on non-IFRS gross profit, and a significant negative impact on non-IFRS operating expenses, resulting in a slightly positive net impact on non-IFRS operating profit in the first quarter 2015.
Sequential discussion
The sequential decline in Nokia Networks non-IFRS operating profit in the first quarter 2015 was due to both Mobile Broadband and Global Services, as well as the absence of approximately EUR 25 million of non-recurring IPR income that benefitted Nokia Networks non-IFRS operating profit in the fourth quarter 2014. On a sequential basis, the slight non-IFRS operating loss in Mobile Broadband was primarily due to a lower non-IFRS gross profit. The decline in Global Services non-IFRS operating profit was primarily due to a lower non-IFRS gross profit.
On a sequential basis, Nokia Networks non-IFRS gross margin declined primarily due to higher costs related to the short-term impact of strategic entry deals, a lower proportion of software in the sales mix, and the absence of approximately EUR 25 million of non-recurring IPR income that benefitted the fourth quarter 2014. The proportion of high margin software sales in the Nokia Networks sales mix was approximately 2 percentage points lower in the first quarter 2015 compared to the fourth quarter 2014.
The sequential decline in non-IFRS gross profit in Mobile Broadband in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to higher costs related to the short-term impact of strategic entry deals, lower non-IFRS gross profit in core networking technologies, primarily related to lower software sales, lower non-IFRS gross profit in overall radio technologies, and more challenging market conditions.
The sequential decline in non-IFRS gross profit in Global Services in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to lower non-IFRS gross profit in the systems integration, network implementation and care business lines.
The sequential increase in Nokia Networks non-IFRS research and development expenses in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to increased investments in LTE, 5G and cloud core. On a sequential basis, Nokia Networks non-IFRS selling, general and administrative expenses in the first quarter 2015 declined primarily due to lower costs associated with information technology, finance and marketing related projects.
Nokia Networks non-IFRS other income and expenses was an expense of EUR 14 million in the first quarter 2015, compared an income of EUR 6 million in the fourth quarter 2014. On a sequential basis, the change in Nokia Networks non-IFRS other income and expenses was primarily due to foreign exchange hedging related losses.
On a sequential basis, foreign exchange fluctuations had a positive impact on non-IFRS gross profit, and a negative impact on non-IFRS operating expenses, resulting in a slightly negative net impact on non-IFRS operating profit in the first quarter 2015.

Financial discussion
Net sales
Sales to automotive customers represented well over 50% of HERE net sales in the first quarter 2015, as well as in the first quarter 2014 and the fourth quarter 2014.
Year-on-year discussion
In the first quarter 2015, HERE net sales increased 25% year-on-year, primarily due to higher sales to automotive customers, as well as Microsoft becoming a more significant licensee of HEREs services and, to a lesser extent, higher sales to enterprise and personal navigation device (PND) customers. This was partially offset by lower recognition of revenue related to smartphone sales by our former Devices & Services business. In addition, compared to the first quarter 2014, HEREs year-on-year net sales were negatively affected by the absence of a benefit related to the conversion of a contract to a perpetual license.
At constant currency, HERE overall net sales would have increased 17% year-on-year.
Sequential discussion
In the first quarter 2015, HERE net sales declined 11% sequentially, primarily due to seasonally lower sales to both PND and automotive customers.
At constant currency, HERE overall net sales would have declined 14% sequentially.
New vehicle licences
In the first quarter 2015, HERE had sales of new vehicle licenses of 3.6 million units, compared to 2.8 million units in the first quarter 2014 and 3.9 million units in the fourth quarter 2014. On a year-on-year basis, unit sales to automotive customers increased primarily due to higher consumer uptake of in-vehicle navigation and higher vehicle sales. On a sequential basis, unit sales to automotive customers declined primarily due to seasonality.
Non-IFRS Operating profit
Year-on-year discussion
The year-on-year increase in HERE non-IFRS operating profit in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to higher non-IFRS gross profit, partially offset by higher non-IFRS operating expenses. On a year-on-year basis, HERE non-IFRS research and development expenses increased primarily due to higher investments in targeted
growth areas, including higher non-IFRS research and development expenses related to our acquisition of Medio, which was completed on July 2, 2014. This was partially offset by cost savings related to the curtailing of investments in certain higher risk longer-term growth opportunities. On a year-on-year basis, HERE non-IFRS selling, general, and administrative expenses increased primarily due to higher business support costs.
On a year-on-year basis, foreign exchange fluctuations had a significant positive impact on non-IFRS gross profit, and a significant negative impact on non-IFRS operating expenses, resulting in a slightly positive net impact on non-IFRS operating profit in the first quarter 2015.
Sequential discussion
The sequential decline in HERE non-IFRS operating profit in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to lower non-IFRS gross profit, partially offset by lower non-IFRS operating expenses. On a sequential basis, HERE non-IFRS research and development expenses declined primarily due to cost savings related to the curtailing of investments in certain higher risk longer-term growth opportunities, partially offset by higher investments in targeted growth areas. On a sequential basis, HERE non-IFRS selling, general, and administrative expenses declined primarily due to lower seasonal marketing expenses, partially offset by higher business support costs.
On a sequential basis, foreign exchange fluctuations had a positive impact on non-IFRS gross profit, and a negative impact on non-IFRS operating expenses, resulting in a slightly positive net impact on non-IFRS operating profit in the first quarter 2015.
Nokia Technologies
Leveraging existing assets and continuing innovation for renewal and growth
Operational highlights
Licensing
Sales of the Nokia N1 Android tablet started in China at the end of January 2015. The Nokia N1 is being brought to market by an original design manufacturer (ODM) partner who is licensing the Nokia brand, Z Launcher software and industrial design of the tablet, and who is responsible for manufacturing, sales and distribution.
Incubation
Nokia Technologies has played a leading role in the standardization of an Image File Format for storing pictures and picture sequences, such as photo bursts, compressed with H.265/HEVC codec. The technical features have now been finalized, and the specification text is expected to be ready in July 2015. This format significantly reduces the file size compared to legacy formats, such as JPEG, and provides a rich set of features for novel photography use cases, such as burst photos.

Financial discussion
Net sales
Year-on-year discussion
In the first quarter 2015, Nokia Technologies net sales increased 103% year-on-year, primarily due to two factors. First, approximately two-thirds of the year-on-year growth in Nokia Technologies net sales in the first quarter 2015 related to non-recurring adjustments to accrued net sales from existing agreements, revenue share related to previously divested intellectual property rights, and intellectual property rights divested in the first quarter 2015. Second, approximately one-third of the year-on-year growth in Nokia Technologies net sales in the first quarter 2015 related to higher intellectual property licensing income from existing licensees, which included Microsoft becoming a more significant intellectual property licensee in conjunction with the sale of substantially all of Nokias Devices & Services business to Microsoft.
At constant currency, Nokia Technologies net sales would have increased 96% year-on-year.
Nokia Technologies first quarter 2015 net sales includes revenue from all licensing negotiations, litigations and arbitrations to the extent that we believe is currently required, but is not a forecast of the likely future outcome of ongoing licensing projects.
Sequential discussion
The sequential increase of 79% in Nokia Technologies net sales in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to two factors. First, approximately 80% of the sequential increase in Nokia Technologies net sales in the first quarter 2015 related to non-recurring adjustments to accrued net sales from existing agreements, revenue share related to previously divested intellectual property rights, and intellectual property rights divested in the first quarter 2015. Second, approximately 20% of the sequential growth in Nokia Technologies net sales in the first quarter 2015 related to higher intellectual property licensing income from existing licensees.
At constant currency, Nokia Technologies net sales would have increased 75% sequentially.

(1)Total cash and other liquid assets less interest-bearing liabilities.
In the first quarter 2015, Nokias total cash and other liquid assets decreased by EUR 199 million and Nokias net cash and other liquid assets decreased by EUR 351 million, compared to the fourth quarter 2014.
Foreign exchange rates had an approximately EUR 150 million positive impact on the translation of gross cash and approximately EUR 150 million positive impact on net cash.
On a sequential basis, net cash and other liquid assets was affected by the following factors:
In the first quarter 2015, Nokias net cash used in operating activities was EUR 199 million. Nokias adjusted net profit before changes in net working capital was EUR 370 million in the first quarter 2015. Nokia had approximately EUR 50 million of restructuring-related cash outflows in the first quarter 2015, related to Nokia Networks. Excluding this, Nokia net working capital had cash outflows of approximately EUR 50 million as the negative cash impact from decreases in short-term liabilities was partially offset by the positive impact from a decrease in receivables. In addition, Nokia had: a) cash inflows of approximately EUR 30 million related to net financial income and expenses, b) cash outflows of approximately EUR 400 million primarily related to foreign exchange impact from hedging and balance sheet related items, and c) cash outflows of approximately EUR 100 million related to taxes. Additionally, Nokia had cash inflows related to net working capital and taxes from discontinued operations totalling approximately EUR 10 million in the first quarter 2015.
In the first quarter 2015, Nokia had cash outflows from investing activities primarily related to approximately EUR 70 million of capital expenditures and approximately EUR 50 million related to acquisitions completed in the quarter.
In the first quarter 2015, cash outflows from financing activities primarily related to the share repurchases, which totalled approximately EUR 160 million during the quarter.

Net sales
Nokias net sales increased 20% year-on-year. At constant currency, Nokias net sales would have increased 11% year-on-year.
The year-on-year increase in Nokias net sales in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to higher net sales in Nokia Networks, Nokia Technologies and, to a lesser extent, in HERE.
Operating profit
Nokias operating profit declined 2% year-on-year in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to a decline in operating profit in Nokia Networks, partially offset by increases in operating profit in Nokia Technologies and, to a lesser extent, in HERE.
Nokias other income and expenses was an expense of EUR 25 million in the first quarter 2015, compared to an expense of EUR 3 million in the first quarter 2014. On a year-on-year basis, Nokias other income and expenses increased primarily due to lower other income in Group Common Functions.
Profit
The share of results of associated companies in the first quarter 2015 includes an approximately EUR 25 million out of period adjustment. Nokia has historically accounted for the results of the associated company in arrears as the results have not been material. Due to an increase in the entitys earnings, the amounts reflected in the first quarter 2015 should have been recorded in the fourth quarter 2014.
Nokias profit increased 65% on a year-on-year basis in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to lower financial expenses and the approximately EUR 25 million out of period adjustment mentioned above.

Net sales by segment
In the first quarter 2015, Mobile Broadband represented 52% of Nokia Networks net sales, compared to 54% in the first quarter 2014. In the first quarter 2015, Global Services represented 48% of Nokia Networks net sales, compared to 46% in the first quarter 2014.
The year-on-year increase of 15% in Nokia Networks net sales in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to an increase in net sales in Global Services and, to a lesser extent, in Mobile Broadband.
Global Services net sales increased 21% year-on-year in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to particularly strong growth in the network implementation business line and, to a lesser extent, growth in network planning and optimization as well as care business lines.
Mobile Broadband net sales increased 10% year-on-year in the first quarter 2015, primarily due to growth in overall radio technologies, with particular strength in LTE. This was partially offset by a year-on-year decline in core networking technologies.
At constant currency, Nokia Networks net sales would have increased 5% year-on-year.

On a regional basis, compared to the first quarter 2014, Nokia Networks net sales in North America increased 47%, primarily driven by higher net sales in Global Services, including the benefit from the acquisition of SAC Wireless. In addition, Nokia Networks net sales in North America increased, to a slightly lesser extent, due to higher net sales in Mobile Broadband. In Asia-Pacific, net sales increased 14%, primarily driven by higher Global Services net sales across the region, partially offset by a slight decline in Mobile Broadband net sales. The overall growth in Asia-Pacific was primarily due to higher Mobile Broadband and Global Services net sales in India, partially offset by lower Mobile Broadband net sales in Japan. In Greater China, net sales increased 31% driven by higher net sales in Global Services and, to a lesser extent, in Mobile Broadband. In Middle East and Africa, net sales increased 27% driven by higher net sales in both Mobile Broadband and Global Services. In Latin America, net sales declined 5% driven by lower net sales in both Global Services and Mobile Broadband. The overall decline in Latin America was primarily due to lower net sales in Brazil partially offset by higher net sales in Argentina. In Europe, net sales declined 2%, primarily driven by lower Global Services net sales. The overall decline in Europe was primarily due to lower net sales in Germany, partially offset by higher net sales in Italy and Russia.
Operating profit
The year-on-year decline in Nokia Networks operating profit in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to Mobile Broadband and, to a lesser extent, Global Services. On a year-on-year basis, the declines in both Mobile Broadband and Global Services operating profit in the first quarter 2015 were primarily due to higher operating expenses and, to a lesser extent, lower gross profit.
On a year-on-year basis, Nokia Networks gross margin declined primarily due to a lower proportion of software and a higher proportion of the network implementation business line in the sales mix. In addition, Nokia Networks gross margin was negatively impacted by lower gross margin within the system integration business line, higher costs related to the short-term impact of strategic entry deals, and more challenging market conditions. The proportion of high margin software sales in the Nokia Networks sales mix was approximately 5 percentage points lower in the first quarter 2015 compared to the first quarter 2014.
The slight year-on-year decline in gross profit in Mobile Broadband in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to lower gross profit in core networking technologies, partially offset by higher gross profit in overall radio technologies. The lower gross profit in core networking technologies was primarily attributable to lower software sales. In addition, gross profit in Mobile Broadband was negatively impacted by higher costs related to the short-term impact of strategic entry deals, and more challenging market conditions.
The slight year-on-year decline in Global Services gross profit in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to the absence of favourable regional mix that benefitted the systems integration business line in the first quarter 2014. This was partially offset by a higher gross profit in the care business line.
The year-on-year increase in Nokia Networks research and development expenses in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to increased investments in LTE, 5G and cloud core. On a year-on-year basis, Nokia Networks selling, general and administrative expenses increased primarily due to higher personnel expenses.
Nokia Networks other income and expenses was an expense of EUR 14 million in the first quarter 2015, compared to an expense of EUR 17 million in the first quarter 2014. On a year-on-year basis, the change in Nokia Networks other income and expenses was primarily due to foreign exchange hedging related losses.
On a year-on-year basis, foreign exchange fluctuations had a significant positive impact on gross profit, and a significant negative impact on operating expenses, resulting in a slightly positive net impact on operating profit in the first quarter 2015.

Net sales
Sales to automotive customers represented well over 50% of HERE net sales in the first quarter 2015, as well as in the first quarter 2014.
In the first quarter 2015, HERE net sales increased 25% year-on-year, primarily due to higher sales to automotive customers, as well as Microsoft becoming a more significant licensee of HEREs services and, to a lesser extent, higher sales to enterprise and PND customers. This was partially offset by lower recognition of revenue related to smartphone sales by our former Devices & Services business. In addition, compared to the first quarter 2014, HEREs year-on-year net sales were negatively affected by the absence of a benefit related to the conversion of a contract to a perpetual license.
At constant currency, HERE overall net sales would have increased 17% year-on-year.
New vehicle licences
In the first quarter 2015, HERE had sales of new vehicle licenses of 3.6 million units, compared to 2.8 million units in the first quarter 2014. On a year-on-year basis, unit sales to automotive customers increased primarily due to higher consumer uptake of in-vehicle navigation and higher vehicle sales.
Operating profit
The year-on-year increase in HERE operating profit in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to higher gross profit, partially offset by higher operating expenses. On a year-on-year basis, HERE research and development expenses increased primarily due to higher investments in targeted growth areas, including higher research and development expenses related to our acquisition of Medio, which was completed on July 2, 2014. This was partially offset by cost savings related to the curtailing of investments in certain higher risk longer-term growth
opportunities. On a year-on-year basis, HERE selling, general, and administrative expenses increased primarily due to higher business support costs.
HERE other income and expenses was an expense of EUR 6 million in the first quarter 2015, compared to an expense of EUR 2 million in the first quarter 2014.
On a year-on-year basis, foreign exchange fluctuations had a significant positive impact on gross profit, and a significant negative impact on operating expenses, resulting in a slightly positive net impact on operating profit in the first quarter 2015.

Net sales
In the first quarter 2015, Nokia Technologies net sales increased 103% year-on-year, primarily due to two factors. First, approximately two-thirds of the year-on-year growth in Nokia Technologies net sales in the first quarter 2015 related to non-recurring adjustments to accrued net sales from existing agreements, revenue share related to previously divested intellectual property rights, and intellectual property rights divested in the first quarter 2015. Second, approximately one-third of the year-on-year growth in Nokia Technologies net sales in the first quarter 2015 related to higher intellectual property licensing income from existing licensees, which included Microsoft becoming a more significant intellectual property licensee in conjunction with the sale of substantially all of Nokias Devices & Services business to Microsoft.
At constant currency, Nokia Technologies net sales would have increased 96% year-on-year.
Nokia Technologies first quarter 2015 net sales includes revenue from all licensing negotiations, litigations and arbitrations to the extent that we believe is currently required, but is not a forecast of the likely future outcome of ongoing licensing projects.
Operating profit
The year-on-year increase in Nokia Technologies operating profit in the first quarter 2015 was primarily due to higher gross profit, partially offset by higher operating expenses.
In the first quarter 2015, the year-on-year increase in Nokia Technologies research and development expenses was primarily due to investments in business activities, which target new and significant long-term growth opportunities, as well as higher patent portfolio costs. On a year-on-year basis, Nokia Technologies selling, general and administrative expenses increased primarily due to increased activities related to anticipated and ongoing patent licensing cases and, to a lesser extent, higher business support costs.
On a year-on-year basis, foreign exchange fluctuations had a positive impact on gross profit, and a negative impact on operating expenses, resulting in a positive net impact on operating profit in the first quarter 2015.
Shares
The total number of Nokia shares on March 31, 2015, equalled 3 678 181 547. On March 31, 2015, Nokia and its subsidiary companies owned 54 380 021 Nokia shares, representing approximately 1.5% of the total number of Nokia shares and voting rights.
Cancellation of shares and other changes in the number of shares
Pursuant to Nokia Board of Directors decision announced on January 29, 2015, the cancellation of 66 903 682 Nokia shares held by the Company was registered with the Finnish Trade Register on February 4, 2015 and on March 20, 2015 a total of 40 983 new shares were subscribed for by using conversion rights pertaining to Nokias EUR 750 million convertible bond due in 2017. On March 31, 2015 the outstanding number of shares in the company was 3 678 181 547. These changes did not affect the companys share capital.

Notes to Financial statements
Basis of preparation
The unaudited, consolidated interim financial statements of Nokia have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 (IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting). The condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for 2014, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. The same accounting policies, methods of computation and applications of judgement are followed in these interim financial statements as were followed in the consolidated financial statements of Nokia for 2014.
These interim financial statements were authorized for issue by management on April 29, 2015.
Percentages and figures presented herein may include rounding differences and therefore may not add up precisely to the totals presented and may vary from previously published financial information.
On January 1, 2015, the Group completed the acquisition of the wireless network business from Panasonic in Japan. The business transfer included Panasonics LTE/3G wireless base station system business, related wireless equipment system business, fixed assets and business contracts with Panasonics customers as well as more than 300 Panasonic employees. The purchase accounting was not complete at the end of Q1 2015.
Improvements to IFRS 2010-2012 and 2011-2013 Cycles
On January 1, 2015, the Group adopted amendments to multiple IFRS standards, which resulted from the IASBs annual improvement projects for the 2010-2012 and 2011-2013 cycles. They comprise amendments that result in accounting changes for presentation, recognition or measurement purposes as well as terminology or editorial amendments related to a variety of individual IFRS standards. The amendments did not have a material impact on the Groups consolidated financial statements.

Non-IFRS to reported reconciliation (unaudited)
In addition to information on our reported IFRS results, we provide certain information on a non-IFRS, or underlying business performance, basis. Non-IFRS results exclude all material special items for all periods. In addition, non-IFRS results exclude intangible asset amortization and other purchase price accounting related items arising from business acquisitions. We believe that our non-IFRS results provide meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors regarding Nokias underlying business performance by excluding the above-described items that may not be indicative of Nokias 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.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS, Nokia Group, Continuing Operations, reported (unaudited)
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 an increasing amount of judgment associated with the inputs used to derive fair valuation for these assets and liabilities; Level 1 being market values and Level 3 requiring most management judgment. At the end of each reporting period Nokia categorizes its financial assets and liabilities to appropriate level of fair value hierarchy.

(1) For items not carried at fair value the following fair value measurement methods are used. The fair value is set to carrying amount for available-for-sale investments carried at cost less impairment for which no reliable fair value has been possible to estimate. The fair value of loan receivables and payables is estimated based on the current market values of similar instruments. The fair values of long-term interest bearing liabilities are based on discounted cash flow analysis (level 2) or quoted prices (level 1). The fair value is estimated to be equal to the carrying amount for short-term financial assets and financial liabilities due to limited credit risk and short time to maturity.
Items included in the following table are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Level 3 investments mainly include a large number of unlisted equities and unlisted venture funds where fair value is determined based on relevant information such as operating performance, recent transactions and available market data on peer companies. No individual input has a significant impact on the total fair value. The following table shows a reconciliation of the opening and closing balances of Level 3 financial assets:
