For the full year, our Zacks Consensus Estimates are projecting earnings of $0.44 per share and revenue of $27.86 billion, which would represent changes of -4.35% and +6.5%, respectively, from the prior year.
Any recent changes to analyst estimates for Nokia should also be noted by investors. These revisions help to show the ever-changing nature of near-term business trends. As such, positive estimate revisions reflect analyst optimism about the company's business and profitability.
Our research shows that these estimate changes are directly correlated with near-term stock prices. To benefit from this, we have developed the Zacks Rank, a proprietary model which takes these estimate changes into account and provides an actionable rating system.
The Zacks Rank system ranges from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell). It has a remarkable, outside-audited track record of success, with #1 stocks delivering an average annual return of +25% since 1988. Over the past month, the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate remained stagnant. Nokia is currently a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
Investors should also note Nokia's current valuation metrics, including its Forward P/E ratio of 9.77. This represents a discount compared to its industry's average Forward P/E of 14.86.
The Wireless Equipment industry is part of the Computer and Technology sector. This industry currently has a Zacks Industry Rank of 203, which puts it in the bottom 20% of all 250+ industries.
