OLLI-PEKKA KALLASVUO, NOKIA CEO:
I am very pleased with Nokias excellent quarterly and full year growth and performance, and I would like to personally thank the Nokia team for their great effort in making this happen. We achieved record device volumes, net sales and EPS for both the fourth quarter and full year 2006. Also, on a sequential basis profitability improved significantly, with gross margins for the quarter up in all Nokia business groups.
Nokia was able to increase its share of the global device market significantly in 2006 to an estimated 36%, clearly solidifying our number one position in the industry. We achieved this result through the strengths of Nokias world class brand, products, cost structure and efficiency, without sacrificing our operating margins or cash flow.
I am also pleased with the net sales growth in Nokias Networks business group, both in the fourth quarter and full year 2006, executing well on its strategy to grow its market share. The Nokia Siemens Networks integration work is progressing and the joint compliance review is under way. We expect to begin operations as previously communicated.
During 2006, Nokia continued to have excellent operating cash flow of EUR 4.5 billion, and we distributed EUR 4.9 billion to our shareholders through dividends and buybacks.
INDUSTRY AND NOKIA OUTLOOK FOR THE FIRST QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2007
· Nokia expects industry mobile device volumes in the first quarter 2007 to reflect normal industry seasonality following a strong fourth quarter 2006 selling period.
· We expect Nokias device market share in the first quarter 2007 to be at approximately the same level sequentially.
· We expect net sales in Nokias Networks business group to experience a sequential seasonal decline in the first quarter 2007.
· Nokia expects industry mobile device volumes in 2007 to grow by up to 10% from the approximately 978 million units Nokia estimates for 2006.
· Nokia continues to expect the device industry to experience value growth in 2007, but expects some decline in industry ASPs, primarily reflecting the increasing impact of the emerging markets and competitive factors in general.
· Nokia continues to expect slight growth in the mobile and fixed infrastructure and related services market in euro terms in 2007.
· Nokia continues to target an increase in its market share in mobile devices in 2007.

Nokias estimated market share for the fourth quarter 2006 was 36%, flat sequentially and up from 34% in the fourth quarter 2005. On a sequential basis, Nokia gained market share in Europe. This gain was offset by market share declines in Latin America, North America and Asia-Pacific, while our market share in China and Middle East & Africa remained virtually unchanged sequentially. On a year on year basis, Nokia gained market share in every area except North America in the fourth quarter 2006.
The average selling price of Nokias mobile devices declined in the fourth quarter 2006 to EUR 89, compared to EUR 93 in the third quarter 2006 and EUR 99 in the fourth quarter 2005. Sequentially, our ASP was impacted by a lower percentage of sales from our higher end products, specifically from our Multimedia business group, that more than offset the relatively stable ASPs in our entry-level product sales. The year on year decline in our ASP was driven primarily by the strong growth of the emerging markets, which have lower ASPs, and the growth of Nokias market share in those markets, in addition to which certain higher-end products in our portfolio were not viewed as sufficiently competitive in various markets.
Mobile Phones: Fourth quarter 2006 net sales grew 14% to EUR 7.1 billion, compared to EUR 6.2 billion in the fourth quarter 2005. Net sales growth was driven by strong volume growth, especially in the entry level, and Nokias ability to capture incremental volumes with its competitive entry-level product portfolio and strong logistics. Volume growth was partially off-set by declining ASPs. Net sales growth was strongest in Latin America, followed by Asia-Pacific, Middle East & Africa, Europe and China. Net sales declined significantly in North America, driven primarily by the continued lack of broad acceptance of certain products in our portfolio, and lower volumes in our CDMA business.
Mobile Phones fourth quarter 2006 operating profit increased 19% year on year to EUR 1 257 million, compared to EUR 1 060 million in the fourth quarter 2005, with an operating margin of 17.8% (17.1%). The strong operating profit growth was driven by strong net sales and effective operating expense control.
Multimedia: Fourth quarter 2006 net sales grew 6% to EUR 2 136 million, compared to EUR 2 024 million in the fourth quarter 2005. Multimedia continued to benefit from good sales of Nokia Nseries multimedia computers, but net sales were somewhat affected by the delay in ramp up of new products. Net sales growth was strongest in Latin America, followed by China, Asia-Pacific and Middle East & Africa. Net sales decreased in North America and Europe.
Multimedia fourth quarter 2006 operating profit grew 5% to EUR 326 million, compared to EUR 310 million in the fourth quarter 2005, with an operating margin of 15.3% (15.3%). Operating profit in the fourth quarter 2006 reflected the challenges noted above, but also benefited from effective operating expense control.
Enterprise Solutions: Fourth quarter 2006 net sales increased 99% to EUR 305 million, compared to EUR 153 million in the fourth quarter 2005. Net sales in the fourth quarter 2006 were driven primarily by a buoyant enterprise device market and Nokias strong volume growth in its enterprise device business, especially from the Nokia Eseries. Net sales were up more than 100% in China, Latin America, North America, Europe and Middle East & Africa, but less than that in Asia-Pacific.
In the fourth quarter 2006, Enterprise Solutions had an operating loss of EUR 64 million, compared to an operating loss of EUR 136 million in the fourth quarter 2005. The fourth quarter 2005 operating loss included a EUR 29 million restructuring charge. The improved operating loss reflected the increased net sales and improved operating expense control.
Networks: Fourth quarter 2006 net sales increased 12% to EUR 2 184 million, compared to EUR 1 951 million in the fourth quarter 2005. Net sales growth was strongest in Middle East & Africa, followed by Asia-Pacific, China, Latin America and Europe. Net sales were down significantly in North America.
Networks fourth quarter 2006 operating profit decreased 52% to EUR 129 million (including the negative impact of EUR 39 million incremental costs related to Nokia Siemens Networks), compared to EUR 268 million in the fourth quarter 2005, with an operating margin of 5.9% (13.7%). Excluding the charge, the operating margin would have been 7.7% in the fourth quarter 2006. The decline in operating profit, excluding the incremental costs related to Nokia Siemens Networks expensed during the fourth quarter, primarily reflected pricing pressure and our efforts to gain market share, a greater proportion of sales from the emerging markets and a higher share of services sales.

NOKIA IN JANUARY DECEMBER 2006
(Comparisons are given to the 2005 results, unless otherwise indicated.)
Nokia Group
For 2006, Nokias net sales increased 20% to EUR 41.1 billion, compared to EUR 34.2 billion in 2005. At constant currency, group net sales would have grown 17% in 2006.
In 2006, Europe accounted for 38 % of Nokias net sales (42% in 2005), Asia-Pacific 20% (18%), China 13% (11%), North America 7% (8%), Latin America 9% (8%), and Middle East & Africa 13% (13%). The 10 markets in which Nokia generated the greatest net sales in 2006 were, in descending order of magnitude, China, the US, India, the UK, Germany, Russia, Italy, Spain, Indonesia and Brazil, together representing 51% of total net sales in 2006. In comparison, the 10 markets in which Nokia generated the greatest net sales in 2005 were China, the US, the UK, India, Germany, Russia, Italy, Spain, Saudi Arabia and France, together representing 52% of total net sales in 2005.
Nokias gross margin in 2006 was 32.5%, compared to 35.0% in 2005. This lower gross margin primarily reflected the inability of certain higher end products in our portfolio to compete effectively in various markets, coupled with a general shift to lower priced products driven primarily by the growth of the emerging markets and Nokias strong position in those markets. Gross margin was also negatively impacted by a decline in Networks gross margin, which was primarily affected by pricing pressure and our efforts to gain market share, a greater proportion of sales from the emerging markets and a higher share of services sales.
In 2006, our sales and marketing expenses were EUR 3.3 billion, up 12% from EUR 3.0 billion in 2005, reflecting increased sales and marketing spend in all business groups to support new product introductions. Sales and marketing expenses represented 8.1% of net sales in 2006, down from 8.7% in 2005.
Research and development expenses were EUR 3.9 billion in 2006, up 1.9% from EUR 3.8 billion in 2005. Research and development costs represented 9.5% of net sales in 2006, down from 11.2% in 2005. The decrease in research and development as a percentage of net sales reflected our continued effort to improve the efficiency of our investments. As of December 31, 2006, we employed 21 453 people in research and development, representing approximately 31% of Nokias total workforce, and had a strong research and development presence in 11 countries.
Administrative and general expenses were EUR 0.7 billion in 2006, compared to EUR 0.6 billion in 2005. Administrative and general expenses were equal to 1.6% of net sales in 2006 (1.8%).
Nokias operating profit for 2006 increased 18% to EUR 5.5 billion (including net positive special items of EUR 87 million), compared to EUR 4.6 billion in 2005 (including net positive special items of EUR 80 million). An increase in Mobile Phones and Multimedias operating profit in 2006 more than offset an unchanged operating loss in Enterprise Solutions and an operating profit decline in Networks. Nokias operating margin was 13.3% in 2006, compared to 13.6% in 2005.
Mobile devices
In our Mobile Phones, Multimedia and Enterprise Solutions business groups, combined mobile device volumes were up 31% in 2006, compared to 2005, reaching 347 million units a new annual volume record for Nokia. Market volume for the same period was estimated at 978 million units, an increase of 23%. Based on our preliminary market estimate, Nokias market share grew to 36% in 2006, compared to 33% in 2005.
In converged devices, according to Nokia estimates, the total industry volume reached approximately 80 million units in 2006, compared to an estimated 46.3 million units in 2005. Nokias own converged device volumes in 2006 grew to 39.0 million units, compared to 28.5 million units in 2005. In 2006, Nokia was the worlds largest camera manufacturer with approximately 140 million cameras sold as well as close to 70 million music enabled devices, making Nokia the worlds largest manufacturer of music devices as well.
In 2006, we estimate Nokia was the market leader in Europe, Asia-Pacific and Latin America. Nokia was also the market leader in some of the fastest growing markets of the world including, China, Middle East & Africa, South East Asia Pacific, India, as well as in WCDMA technology.
During 2006, Nokia gained device market share in China, Asia-Pacific and Latin America. In China, Nokia had another year of excellent market share gains driven by its extensive distribution system, broad product portfolio, brand and a continued push into the rural markets. Nokias healthy market share gains in Asia-Pacific were driven by gains in South East Asia Pacific, and we also benefited from our strong position in the fastest growing markets like India. In Asia-Pacific, Nokia continued to benefit from its brand, broad product portfolio and extensive distribution system. In Latin America, Nokias 2006 market share gains were driven by gains in markets like Brazil, Mexico and Argentina. Nokias strength in Latin America was especially driven by its strong entry-level product portfolio and improving mid-range offering.
In Europe, we estimate our market share was down slightly in 2006. Nokia 2006 share gains in markets like Italy, Russia, Spain and in WCDMA technology were offset by share declines in other European markets, including the United Kingdom, as a result of the intense competitive environment.
In Middle East & Africa, our volume growth was below regional industry volume growth resulting in a loss of market share, while the overall high growth of the area and Nokias strong market position positively contributed to our global volume growth. Nokia continues to benefit in Middle East & Africa from its brand, broad product portfolio and extensive distribution system.
In North America, conditions remain difficult. In 2006, the continued lack of broad acceptance of certain products in our portfolio, and lower volumes in our CDMA business in the fourth quarter, resulted in our volumes and market share declining compared to 2005.
Nokias device ASP in 2006 was EUR 96, declining 7% from EUR 103 in 2005. Industry ASPs declined in 2006, driven primarily by the strong device volume growth in the emerging markets, which have lower ASPs. For Nokia, the ASP decline was caused primarily by our strong and growing market share in these emerging markets, in addition to which certain higher-end products in our portfolio were not viewed as sufficiently competitive in various markets.
Mobile Phones
In the Mobile Phones business group, 2006 net sales increased 19% to EUR 24.8 billion, compared to EUR 20.8 billion in 2005. At constant currency, Mobile Phones net sales would have increased 15% in 2006. Net sales growth was driven by strong volume growth, especially in the entry level, and Nokias ability to capture incremental volumes with its competitive entry-level product portfolio and strong logistics. Volume growth was partially off-set by declining ASPs. Net sales increased in all areas and were strongest in Latin America, followed by Asia-Pacific, China, Europe, Middle East & Africa and North America.
Mobile Phones operating profit in 2006 increased 14% to EUR 4.1 billion (including negative special items of EUR 142 million), compared to EUR 3.6 billion in 2005. The business groups operating margin was 16.6% (17.3%). The increase in operating profit was driven by strong net sales and effective operating expense control. Operating profit was negatively impacted by a lack of broad acceptance of certain higher end products in our portfolio.
Multimedia
In the Multimedia business group, 2006 net sales increased 32% to EUR 7.9 billion, compared to EUR 6.0 billion in 2005. At constant currency, Multimedia net sales would have increased 27% in 2006. Net sales were driven by a robust overall device market supporting sales of more than 16 million Nokia Nseries multimedia computers during the year, led by the Nokia N70 and Nokia N73. Net sales growth was strongest in China followed by Asia-Pacific, Latin America, Middle East & Africa and Europe. Multimedia net sales declined in North America and continued at a low level in 2006.
Multimedias operating profit in 2006 increased 58% to EUR 1.3 billion, compared to EUR 836 million in 2005 (including net positive special items of EUR 4 million). The business groups operating margin was 16.7% (14.0%). The increase in operating profit reflected the increase in sales of our Multimedia products and effective operating expense control.
Enterprise Solutions
In the Enterprise Solutions business group, 2006 net sales increased 20% to EUR 1.0 billion, compared to EUR 861 million in 2005. At constant currency, Enterprise Solutions net sales would have increased 17% in 2006. Net sales growth was highest in China, North America, Europe, Latin America and Asia-Pacific. Net sales declined in Middle East & Africa. The Nokia Eseries sold almost 2 million units since its introduction in the second quarter 2006.
Enterprise Solutions operating loss of EUR 258 million (including a EUR 8 million restructuring charge) was flat in 2006, compared to 2005. 2005 operating profit included a EUR 29 million restructuring charge. In 2006, higher net sales and effective operating expense control were off-set by the negative impact of a mix shift to lower-end products.
Networks
In the Networks business group, 2006 net sales increased 14% to EUR 7.5 billion, compared to EUR 6.6 billion in 2005. At constant currency, Networks net sales would have increased 12% in 2006. Strong net sales growth in Middle East & Africa, Asia-Pacific, China and Latin America was partially offset by a net sales decline in North America and Europe. Net sales growth for Networks was especially strong in the emerging markets, like India, where the market continued its robust growth and where Nokia estimates it gained market share.
Networks operating profit for 2006 was EUR 808 million (including net positive special items of EUR 237 million), compared to EUR 855 million in 2005 (including net positive special items of EUR 60 million). The business groups operating margin for 2006 was 10.8% (13.0%). The lower operating profit, excluding the special items, primarily reflected pricing pressure and our efforts to gain market share, a greater proportion of sales from the emerging markets and a higher share of services sales.
OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS IN 2006
Mobile Phones
During 2006, Mobile Phones introduced 39 new mobile device models, including 11 CDMA models. Of the total devices introduced, 23 were in the mid range or high end, while 7 were at the entry level. Highlights from 2006 include:

Multimedia
In 2006, Multimedia continued to build the Nokia Nseries sub-brand and multimedia computer category by bringing new products and applications to the market. Multimedia also continued sales of pre-Nokia Nseries multipurpose mobile devices, such as the Nokia 7610 and Nokia 6600. Highlights from 2006 include:
· In the third quarter, we announced the acquisitions of Loudeye, a global leader in digital music platforms, and gate5, a leading supplier of mapping and navigation software. The acquisitions, both of which were completed during the fourth quarter 2006, are intended to accelerate the development of Nokias music and location-based experiences for consumers.

It should be noted that certain statements herein which are not historical facts, including, without limitation, those regarding: A) the timing of product and solution deliveries; B) our ability to develop, implement and commercialize new products, solutions and technologies; C) expectations regarding market growth, developments and structural changes; D) expectations regarding our mobile device volume growth, market share, prices and margins; E) expectations and targets for our results of operations; F) the outcome of pending and threatened litigation; G) expected timing, scope and effects of the merger of Nokias and Siemens communications service provider businesses; and H) statements preceded by believe, expect, anticipate, foresee, target, estimate, designed, plans, will or similar expressions are forward-looking statements. Because these statements involve risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from the results that we currently expect. Factors that could cause these differences include, but are not limited to: 1) the extent of the growth of the mobile communications industry, as well as the growth and profitability of the new market segments within that industry which we target; 2) the availability of new products and services by network operators and other market participants; 3) our ability to identify key market trends and to respond timely and successfully to the needs of our customers; 4) the impact of changes in technology and our ability to develop or otherwise acquire complex technologies as required by the market, with full rights needed to use; 5) competitiveness of our product portfolio; 6) timely and successful commercialization of new advanced products and solutions; 7) price erosion and cost management; 8) the intensity of competition in the mobile communications industry and our ability to maintain or improve our market position and respond to changes in the competitive landscape; 9) our ability to manage efficiently our manufacturing and logistics, as well as to ensure the quality, safety, security and timely delivery of our products and solutions; 10) inventory management risks resulting from shifts in market demand; 11) our ability to source quality components without interruption and at acceptable prices; 12) our success in collaboration arrangements relating to development of technologies or new products and solutions; 13) the success, financial condition and performance of our collaboration partners, suppliers and customers; 14) any disruption to information technology systems and networks that our operations rely on; 15) our ability to protect the complex technologies that we or others develop or that we license from claims that we have infringed third parties intellectual property rights, as well as our unrestricted use on commercially acceptable terms of certain technologies in our products and solution offerings; 16) general economic conditions globally and, in particular, economic or political turmoil in emerging market countries where we do business; 17) developments under large, multi-year contracts or in relation to major customers; 18) exchange rate fluctuations, including, in particular, fluctuations between the euro, which is our reporting currency, and the US dollar, the Chinese yuan, the UK pound sterling and the Japanese yen; 19) the management of our customer financing exposure; 20) our ability to recruit, retain and develop appropriately skilled employees; 21) the impact of changes in government policies, laws or regulations; and 22) satisfaction of the conditions to the merger of Nokias and Siemens communications service provider businesses, including achievement of agreement between Nokia and Siemens on the results and consequences of a Siemens compliance review, and closing of transaction, and Nokias and Siemens ability to successfully integrate the operations and employees of their respective businesses; as well as 23) the risk factors specified on pages 12 - 22 of the companys annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2005 under Item 3.D Risk Factors. Other unknown or unpredictable factors or underlying assumptions subsequently proving to be incorrect could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Nokia does not undertake any obligation to update publicly or revise forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent legally required.
