Nokia Siemens buying Motorola unit for $1.2 billions
By Steve Goldstein
LONDON (MarketWatch) -- Nokia Siemens Networks, the telecom equipment venture of Nokia (NOK 8.74, -0.12, -1.35%) and Siemens (SI 96.02, 0.64, 0.67%) , said they are going to buy most of Motorola's (MOT 7.50, -0.22, -2.85%) wireless network infrastructure assets for $1.2 billion in cash. Nokia Siemens Networks expects to gain incumbent relationships with more than 50 operators and to strengthen its position with China Mobile, Clearwire, KDDI, Sprint, Verizon Wireless and Vodafone. Nokia Siemens Networks expects that based on revenue, with the addition of the Motorola wireless network infrastructure business, it will become the #3 wireless infrastructure vendor in the United States, the #1 foreign wireless vendor in Japan, and strengthen its current #2 position in the global infrastructure segment. Approximately 7,500 employees are expected to transfer to Nokia Siemens Networks from Motorola's wireless network infrastructure business when the transaction closes, including large research and development sites in the United States, China and India. Motorola retains the iDEN business, substantially all the patents related to its wireless network infrastructure business and other selected assets. Nokia Siemens Networks and Motorola also are exploring a global relationship in the public safety arena.
