Statement on situation in Japan

Espoo, Finland - Nokia Siemens Networks employees have been shocked and saddened by the events in Japan. The company’s business in the region has been focused on the safety of its employees and restoring vital communications across the impacted regions.

Nokia Siemens Networks continues to assess its supply situation following the earthquake. As it does not conduct any manufacturing in Japan, there is no immediate impact on equipment supply. The company sources only a small number of components from Japan.

Following its initial assessment Nokia Siemens Networks does not anticipate any immediate issues in its supply-chain. The company has stocks in place that can bridge any short term needs. Mid- and long-term impacts need further evaluation and are dependent on Japan’s overall recovery.
