Nokia’s objective with this program is to repurchase up to 150 million shares, allocating a maximum total of €900 million for the buybacks. Following the latest transaction, Nokia now holds 142,405,206 of its own shares.
The company, a leader in B2B technology and innovation, is known for pioneering future-oriented, intelligent network solutions, with a strong foundation in fixed, mobile, and cloud network services.
