Nokia Corporation Report for Q2 and Half Year 2025
Nokia Corporation Half year financial report24 July 2025 at 08:00 EEST Nokia Corporation Report for Q2 and Half Year 2025Solid performance offset by currency impact Q2 comparable net sales declined 1% y-o-y on a constant currency and portfolio basis (2% reported) due to a 13% decline in Mobile Networks which had benefited from accelerated revenue recognition in the prior year. Network Infrastructure grew 8% while Cloud and Network Services grew 14%. Nokia Technologies grew 3%. Comparable gross margin in Q2 was flat y-o-y at 44.7% (reported increased 10bps to 43.4%). Gross margins were broadly stable in Network Infrastructure and Mobile Networks and improved in Cloud and Network Services. Q2 comparable operating margin decreased 290bps y-o-y to 6.6% (reported up 790bps to 1.8%), driven by a negative EUR 50 million venture fund impact which includes a EUR 60 million negative currency revaluation. Operating profit was also impacted by tariffs. Q2 comparable diluted EPS for the period of EUR 0.04; reported diluted EPS for the period of EUR 0.02. Q2 free cash flow of EUR 0.1 billion, net cash balance of EUR 2.9 billion. As announced on 22 July 2025, full year 2025 comparable operating profit outlook revised to between EUR 1.6 and 2.1 billion (was between EUR 1.9 and 2.4 billion) with free cash flow conversion from comparable operating profit unchanged at between 50% and 80%. This is a summary of the Nokia Corporation Report for Q2 and Half Year 2025 published today. Nokia only publishes a summary of its financial reports in stock exchange releases. The summary focuses on Nokia Group's financial information as well as on Nokia's outlook. The detailed, segment-level discussion will be available in the complete financial report hosted at Investors should not solely rely on summaries of Nokia's financial reports and should also review the complete reports with tables. JUSTIN HOTARD, PRESIDENT AND CEO, ON Q2 2025 RESULTS In the following quote, net sales comments and growth rates are referring to comparable net sales and are on a constant currency and portfolio my first quarter as CEO, I've spent significant time engaging with our stakeholders. One message has stood out: Connectivity is becoming a critical differentiator in the AI supercycle, not only for communication service providers and hyperscalers, but also for new areas like defense and national security. With our portfolio in mobile and fiber access, data center, and transport networks, Nokia is uniquely positioned to be a leader in this market transition. Customer conversations have increased my optimism about our opportunity: There's been a strong validation of what sets us apart – our technology, partnering culture, and the exceptional talent of our the same time, our customers expect us to engage with them as one integrated company as they partner with us across our portfolio. Further it is clear we need to continue to evolve how we work so we move faster, improve productivity and focus on what brings value to our customers. As a result, we're unifying our corporate functions to simplify how we work, build a more cohesive culture and begin to unlock operating have a great opportunity to drive a unified vision for the future of networks, and I am looking forward to discussing our strategy and full value creation story at our Capital Markets Day in New York on November to our second quarter results, the significant currency fluctuations, particularly the weaker USD, had a meaningful impact on both our net sales and operating profit. On a constant currency and portfolio basis our overall net sales declined 1%, however excluding a settlement benefit in the prior year, sales would have grown 3%. Network Infrastructure grew 8% in Q2. Mobile Networks' net sales declined 13%, primarily related to the aforementioned prior year settlement benefit and also due to project timing in India. Cloud and Network Services grew 14% with strong momentum in 5G Core. Nokia Technologies grew 3% and secured several new agreements in the quarter.Q2 comparable gross margin was stable year-on-year at 44.7%. Operating profit in the quarter was impacted by a non-cash negative impact to venture funds of EUR 50 million which included a EUR 60 million negative currency revaluation and the effect of tariffs we highlighted in Q1, contributing to our comparable operating margin declining 290 bps to 6.6%. Despite the cash impact of 2024 incentives during Q2, we had a strong cash performance and have generated free cash flow of over EUR 800 million in the first half.Q2 saw continued strong order momentum in Optical Networks with a book-to-bill well above 1, driven by new hyperscaler orders. We had several key wins in the quarter, including a deal with a large US communication service provider along with receiving our first award for 800G pluggables from a US hyperscaler. Across the group, Nokia generated 5% of sales in Q2 from hyperscalers. While we still have a lot of work ahead of us, I'm pleased with the progress we are making integrating Infinera, including executing on synergies. Additionally, the commercial momentum we are seeing reinforces the long-term value creation opportunity of the acquisition. Looking ahead we expect a stronger second half performance, particularly in Q4 consistent with normal seasonality. For the full year, the underlying business is trending largely as expected. We continue to expect strong growth in Network Infrastructure, growth in Cloud and Network Services and largely stable net sales in Mobile Networks on a constant currency and portfolio basis. In Nokia Technologies we expect approximately EUR 1.1 billion in operating we are facing two headwinds to our full year operating profit outlook which are outside of our control, currency due to the weaker US Dollar, and tariffs. Currency has an approximately EUR 230 million negative impact relative to our expectations at the start of the year with EUR 90 million from non-cash venture fund currency revaluations. The current tariff levels are forecasted to impact operating profit by EUR 50 million to EUR 80 million inclusive of those in Q2. Considering these two headwinds, we decided it was prudent at this point to lower our comparable operating profit outlook to a range of EUR 1.6 billion to EUR 2.1 billion from the prior range of EUR 1.9 billion to EUR 2.4 HotardPresident and CEO FINANCIAL RESULTS EUR million (except for EPS in EUR) Q2'25 Q2'24 YoY change Q1-Q2'25 Q1-Q2'24 YoY change Reported results Net sales 4 546 4 466 2% 8 936 8 910 0% Gross margin % 43.4% 43.3% 10bps 42.5% 46.5% (400)bps Research and development expenses (1 161) (1 134) 2% (2 306) (2 259) 2% Selling, general and administrative expenses (744) (715) 4% (1 472) (1 408) 5% Operating profit 81 432 (81)% 32 836 (96)% Operating margin % 1.8% 9.7% (790)bps 0.4% 9.4% (900)bps Profit from continuing operations 83 370 (78)% 24 821 (97)% Profit/(loss) from discontinued operations 13 (512)13 (525)Profit/(loss) for the period 96 (142)36 296 (88)% EPS for the period, diluted 0.02 (0.03)0.01 0.05 (80)% Net cash and interest-bearing financial investments 2 879 5 475 (47)% 2 879 5 475 (47)% Comparable results Net sales 4 551 4 466 2% 8 941 8 910 0% Constant currency and portfolio YoY change(1) (1%) (2%) Gross margin % 44.7% 44.7% 0bps 43.5% 47.6% (410)bps Research and development expenses (1 126) (1 064) 6% (2 241) (2 140) 5% Selling, general and administrative expenses (612) (610) 0% (1 199) (1 194) 0% Operating profit 301 423 (29)% 457 1 023 (55)% Operating margin % 6.6% 9.5% (290)bps 5.1% 11.5% (640)bps Profit for the period 236 328 (28)% 390 840 (54)% EPS for the period, diluted 0.04 0.06 (33)% 0.07 0.15 (53)%Business group results Network Infrastructure MobileNetworks Cloud and Network Services Nokia Technologies Group Common and Other EUR million Q2'25 Q2'24 Q2'25 Q2'24 Q2'25 Q2'24 Q2'25 Q2'24 Q2'25 Q2'24 Net sales 1 904 1 522 1 732 2 078 557 507 357 356 3 4 YoY change 25%(17)%10%0%(25)%Constant currency and portfolio YoY change(1) 8%(13)%14%3%(25)%Gross margin % 38.2% 38.4% 41.1% 41.8% 42.7% 37.5% 100.0% 100.0% Operating profit/(loss) 109 97 77 182 9 (35) 255 258 (150) (78) Operating margin % 5.7% 6.4% 4.4% 8.8% 1.6% (6.9)% 71.4% 72.5% (1) This metric provides additional information on the growth of the business and adjusts for both currency impacts and portfolio changes.

Peoples Financial Corporation Reports Results for the Second Quarter of 2025
BILOXI, MS / / July 23, 2025 / Peoples Financial Corporation (the "Company")(OTCQX Best Market:PFBX), parent of The Peoples Bank (the "Bank"), announced earnings for the second quarter ending June 30, 2025. Second Quarter EarningsNet income for the second quarter of 2025 decreased $1,087,000 to $1,242,000 compared to net income of $2,329,000 for the second quarter of 2024. The earnings per weighted average common share for the second quarter of 2025 were $0.27 compared to earnings per weighted average common share of $0.50 for the second quarter of 2024. Per share figures are based on weighted average common shares outstanding of 4,617,466 and 4,661,686 for the second quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in net income for the second quarter of 2025 was primarily due to a decrease in net interest income of $431,000 to $5,472,000 for the second quarter of 2025 compared with $5,903,000 for the second quarter of 2024. Total interest income decreased by $1,231,000 to $7,464,000 for the second quarter of 2025 as compared with $8,695,000 for the second quarter of 2024 due to lower interest income on securities caused by a decrease in balances and yields. Total interest expense decreased by $800,000 to $1,992,000 for the second quarter of 2025 as compared with $2,792,000 for the second quarter of 2024 due to lower borrowing costs and lower interest rates paid on deposit accounts. Net income for the first six months of 2025 decreased $2,192,000 to $2,552,000 compared to net income of $4,744,000 for the first six months of 2024. The earnings per weighted average common share for the first six months of 2025 were $0.55 compared to earnings per weighted average common share of $1.02 for the first six months of 2024. Per share figures are based on weighted average common shares outstanding of 4,617,466 and 4,661,686 for the first six months of 2025 and 2024, respectively. The income tax expense increased $218,000 to $620,000 for the first six months of 2025 as compared with $402,000 for the first six months of 2024. The increase was driven by the near-full utilization of federal tax credits in 2024, leaving only a minimal credit available for utilization in 2025. Return on average assets for the first six months ended June 30, 2025, decreased 0.52% to 0.64% compared to 1.16% for the first six months ended June 30, 2024. The Company's efficiency ratio increased 10% to 78% for the first six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 68% for the first six months ended June 30, 2024. Asset Quality"The Bank's leadership remains committed to maintaining high-quality assets. We are closely monitoring economic conditions and staying vigilant for any potential changes in interest rates. As hurricane season commences, the Company has proactively prioritized hurricane preparedness. Across all 18 bank facilities, we have ensured that resources are available allowing branches to operate even in the event of power outages. The Company has a comprehensive and thorough business continuity and disaster recovery strategy." said Chevis C. Swetman, chairman and chief executive officer of the Company and the Bank. Shareholders' EquityTotal shareholders' equity increased by $6,509,000 from $90,001,000 at December 31, 2024, to $96,510,000 at June 30, 2025. The improvement in shareholders' equity was mainly due to the six-month earnings of $2,552,000 through June 30, 2025. The Company also experienced a decrease of $4,788,000 in unrealized losses on securities in 2025. The Company reported $32,218,000 and $38,006,000 in unrealized losses on the available for sale securities portfolio as of June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively. These unrealized losses are presented in accumulated other comprehensive income for the respective periods. The cause of the unrealized losses has primarily resulted from higher interest rates that have impacted the current market value of available for sale securities. The unrealized losses are not related to any credit deterioration within the portfolio. The Company has maintained strong liquidity and continues to do so; therefore, the Company does not foresee a sale of any affected securities that would cause the realization of these losses by the Company as part of net income in the near future. The Bank's leverage ratio has not been impacted by these unrealized losses on available for sale securities due to an opt- out election previously made by the Bank in accordance with current regulatory capital requirements and therefore remained strong at 13.97% as of June 30, 2025. LiquidityThe Company maintains a well-capitalized balance sheet which includes strong capital and liquidity. The Bank provides a full range of banking, financial and trust services in our local markets. The majority of the Bank's deposits are fully FDIC insured. The Company evaluates on an ongoing and continuous basis its financial health by preparing for various moderate to severe economic scenarios. As interest rates have increased and the cost of attracting new deposits and replacing deposit attrition has increased, the Bank experienced a decrease in deposit balances during the six months ended June 30, 2025. This decrease was mostly caused by the loss of several large public fund deposits in 2025 following competitive bid processes held in 2025 whereby the public fund deposit accounts were awarded to other local banks. As of June 30, 2025, total deposits have decreased $76,419,000 to $644,311,000 from $720,730,000 as of December 31, 2024. About the CompanyFounded in 1896, with $761 million in total assets as of June 30, 2025, The Peoples Bank operates 18 bank facilities along the Mississippi Gulf Coast in Hancock, Harrison, Jackson and Stone counties. In addition to offering a comprehensive range of retail and commercial banking services, the Bank also operates a trust and investment services department that has provided customers with financial, estate and retirement planning services since 1936.
