## Nokia sells submarine networks business ASN to French state

COPENHAGEN (Reuters) – Nokia on Thursday said it had agreed to sell its [submarine](https://entrepreneurtribune.com/australias-nuclear-submarine-plan-to-cost-up-to-245-billion-by-2055-defence-official/) networks business ASN to the French state for 350 million euros ($374 million), but that the deal would not impact its financial outlook.

Nokia expected the divestiture to reduce sales in its [Network](https://entrepreneurtribune.com/?p=23571) Infrastructure Business Group by 1 billion euros, it said.

The sale is expected to close at the end of 2024 or beginning of 2025, Nokia added.

($1 = 0.9352 euros)
