Nokia's Q2 revenue grows 8.3% led by AI and cloud, maintaining Buy rating and strong 2026 outlook.

Nokia reported an 8.3% year-over-year revenue increase in Q2 to €4.82 billion, driven by a 105% surge in AI and cloud net sales, reflecting strong growth in digital infrastructure. The company maintained its 2026 operational outlook but adjusted its operating profit guidance to €2.1–2.6 billion due to some business discontinuations. Analysts recommend a three-year holding period to benefit from Nokia's operating leverage and AI-driven demand growth. This positive momentum has also pushed Nokia's stock price from $10 to over $16 recently.
