The SEC's letter, dated December 12, 2023, addressed to Nokia's CFO Marco Wiren, raised questions about Nokia's financial measures and sustainability-linked notes. Nokia has agreed to revise its Free Cash Flow definition in future filings to align with SEC guidance, removing certain proceeds and purchases from its calculation. The company will also clarify the purpose of Free Cash Flow in its Form 20-F for the year 2023. Regarding the EUR 500 million sustainability-linked notes issued on February 21, 2023, Nokia has disclosed the key sustainability performance indicators (KPIs) related to the notes, which are tied to the company's goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 50% between 2019 and 2030. If Nokia fails to meet the KPI, it will pay a one-time redemption premium. Nokia has confirmed that the notes do not contain an embedded derivative under IFRS 9 and will be measured at amortized cost. The company's sustainability framework and KPI have been reviewed by Sustainalytics, which provided a second party opinion affirming the KPI's alignment with Nokia's sustainability strategy. Nokia has committed to annual external limited assurance on its KPI performance and will make the verification statement publicly available.
