Nokia (NOK) Dips More Than Broader Markets: What You Should Know

Zacks Equity Research

In the latest trading session, Nokia (NOK) closed at $5.10, marking a -1.16% move from the previous day. This move lagged the S&P 500's daily loss of 0.2%. Elsewhere, the Dow lost 0.17%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq lost 0.38%.

Prior to today's trading, shares of the technology company had gained 8.18% over the past month. This has outpaced the Computer and Technology sector's loss of 1.9% and the S&P 500's gain of 0.33% in that time.

Investors will be hoping for strength from NOK as it approaches its next earnings release. In that report, analysts expect NOK to post earnings of $0.01 per share. This would mark a year-over-year decline of 75%. Meanwhile, our latest consensus estimate is calling for revenue of $6.06 billion, down 4.43% from the prior-year quarter.

For the full year, our Zacks Consensus Estimates are projecting earnings of $0.24 per share and revenue of $25.95 billion, which would represent changes of -11.11% and -2.36%, respectively, from the prior year.
