Nokia Corporation Message Board

Nokia (NOK) was once the king of the mobile phone world, but thanks to rapid changes in technology and consumer preferences, it seems that no company stays on top of this industry for too many years. However, if any company has a chance at climbing back into relevancy, it could be Nokia. This seems possible for a number of reasons, which include a strong balance sheet, a valuable patent portfolio, continued innovation, new products, and a focus on emerging market consumers. Let's take a closer look at these factors below:

Nokia has a very strong balance sheet with about $13.5 billion in cash and around $7.28 billion in debt. The current market capitalization is about $14 billion, but the enterprise value is only around $7.62 billion due to the cash position. This valuation appears way too low for a company with roughly $37 billion in annual revenues and also when you consider that this company has many very valuable patents, which are generating significant revenues.

In a recent Seeking Alpha article, Jacob Steinberg makes a solid case for the value that could be applied to Nokia's patent portfolio. Over the years, this company has invested tens of billions into research and development and many companies use the patents and pay licensing fees to Nokia. Mr. Steinberg's article details why the patents could be worth $8 to $15 billion which is significantly more than the enterprise value of $7.62 billion discussed above, the article states:

Nokia is expected generate between $800 million and $1.5 billion in patent license fees and royalty payments annually. Considering how IDC estimates that the smartphone industry is expected to double in size between now and 2017, this number can grow considerably. If we assign a P/E ratio of 10 to Nokia's patent portfolio, the patents under the mobile devices segment alone will be worth between $8 billion and $15 billion.

Sentiment: Strong Buy

Jeffery research and Market edges gave NOK 2 thumb up. We need to hear from Jim Cramer. I bet he loaded with NOK today and ready to drum beat on it anytime.

yes NOK will rise above $4 next week

In the next three years Apple and Android smartphone will rapidly decrease because NOK will come up with many innovative products. Microsoft will help NOK to succeed.
