2016 highlights
2016 was a year of remarkable change for Nokia.
We started the year primarily as a mobile networks and patent licensing company.
Today we are a fundamentally different company, with a complete portfolio that spans mobile, fixed, cable, routing, optical, standalone software, services, digital health, and VR, as well as licensing activities covering patents, brand, technology, and more.
During this transformation, we delivered solid financial performance, made significant progress integrating Alcatel Lucent, launched compelling innovations for our customers, moved forward with the execution of our strategy, and are on track to meet our commitment to reduce costs by EUR 1.2 billion in full year 2018.
Consolidated financial statements
Our two main businesses, Nokia’s Networks business, a top provider of mobile connectivity infrastructure and services, and Nokia Technologies, our driver of future innovation and licensing (Nokia’s Networks business and Nokia Technologies, together “Continuing operations”), demonstrated their leadership in their respective fields with solid financial performances.

Our strategy
Over the next two years, we intend to maintain our leading position with CSPs, while establishing ourselves as a credible and recognized player in our target vertical markets among enterprises.
We strive to sustain and rebuild Nokia as a value-adding consumer brand, earning returns through both our own businesses and licensing.
