Nokia Q3 2025 Earnings Report
Nokia reported strong year-over-year revenue growth in Q3 2025, driven by all business groups, despite margin pressure from product mix.
Key Takeaways
Nokia's Q3 2025 results showed 12% reported revenue growth and 9% constant currency growth, with Optical Networks leading at 19%. While revenues increased, gross and operating margins declined due to unfavorable product mix in Mobile and Network Infrastructure.
Revenue grew 12% YoY, reaching €4.83B, with all business segments contributing.
Optical Networks led growth with a 19% increase, mainly from AI & Cloud customers.
Comparable gross margin fell 150bps to 44.2% due to product mix and weaker software in Mobile Networks.
Free cash flow was strong at €0.4B and net cash balance stood at €3.0B.
