Investors are getting anxious in the bold but bumpy turnaround for struggling phone maker Nokia. The company’s shares fell 6% in Helsinki this morning after it reported a 4% fall in group handset sales from the first quarter to 53.7 units, slipping below forecasts for sales of 56.2 million.

　　一直在困境中挣扎的手机制造商诺基亚的经营情况出现了明显改善，但仍不理想，这让投资者们开始感到焦虑。该公司宣布其功能型手机销量比第一季度下降4%，至5,370万部，低于预测的5,620万部。消息发布后，7月18日上午，该公司股价在赫尔辛基下跌6%。

　　Sales of Nokia’s Lumia smartphones increased 32% from the last quarter to 7.4 million euros, but that also undershot a Reuters poll of analysts expecting unit sales of 8.1 million.

　　诺基亚Lumia智能手机销量比上一季度增长32%，达740万部，但仍低于路透社调查的分析师们之前预计的810万部。

　　The company’s net sales fell 3% quarter-on-quarter to 5.7 billion euros, down by 24% from last year. It posted an operating loss of 115 million euros, managing to narrow its deficit from an 824 million-euro loss in the first quarter of 2013.

　　该公司净销售额环比下降3%，至57亿欧元，比去年同期下降24%。营运亏损1.15亿欧元，相比今年第一季度的8.24亿欧元亏损大幅收窄。

　　Nokia is betting on big turnaround for its high-margin, smartphone business, which has struggled to compete against the dominant platforms of Apple ‘s iOS for the iPhone and Android, which has been popularised by Samsung with its Galaxy and Note range.

　　诺基亚正寄厚望于其高利润率智能手机业务会出现大幅改善，在智能手机领域，该公司勉力面对来自苹果iPhone 的iOS平台及因三星Galaxy和Note系列而独霸天下的安卓平台等主流平台的竞争。

　　While Nokia’s smartphones have managed to grab 85.4% of the global market for Windows Phone, according to July 2013 statistics from AdDuplex, with its share of that market even growing slightly, the overall market share of Windows Phone in the United States fell to just 3% from 3.2% in the February to May 2013 quarter. Both Google ‘s Android platform (52.4%) and Apple’s iOS (39.2%) both gained.

　　根据2013年7月AdDuplex发布的统计数据，诺基亚智能手机在全球Windows Phone市场中占据85.4%的份额，诺基亚在该市场中的份额略微上升的同时，Windows Phone在美国市场的总体份额从2013年第一季度的3.2%下降至第二季度的3%。而谷歌安卓平台(52.4%)和苹果iOS(39.2%)的市场份额双双实现了增长。

　　One bright spot in Nokia’s report was the performance of its network infrastructure company Nokia Siemens Networks, whose operating margins came in at 11.8%, well above the 5% Nokia had been expecting. Compare this with margins at Nokia’s core handset division, where operating margins came in at negative 1.2%.

　　诺基亚财报中的一处亮点是其网络基础设施公司诺基亚西门子通信公司的营运利润率达11.8%，远高于诺基亚预期的5%。将该部门业绩与诺基亚核心的手机部门业绩相比，后者的营运利润率为负1.2%。

　　The networking division’s performance certainly vindicates Nokia’s recent purchase of Siemens’ 50% stake in the former joint venture. Nokia Chief Executive Stephen Elop said Nokia would be “strengthening Nokia Siemens Networks as a more independent entity, ” which could leave the door open to an eventual sale if the company needs the cash to provide more time for the turnaround of its handset division. Nokia’s net cash reserves fell to 4.1 billion euros, from 4.5 billion euros in the first quarter.

　　诺西的表现无疑证明了诺基亚最近收购西门子在该合资公司中所持50%股权的行动是正确的。诺基亚首席执行官史蒂芬?埃洛普(Stephen Elop)表示，诺基亚将“进一步巩固诺西网络，使其成为一家更为独立的实体”，如果诺基亚需要现金以为其手机业务扭亏为盈争取更多时间的话，诺西可为最终的出售打开大门。诺基亚的净现金储备下降至41亿欧元，低于第一季度的45亿欧元。

　　“Our mobile phones business unit started to demonstrate some signs of recovery in the latter part of the second quarter following a difficult start to the year, ” Elop said. “While we are very encouraged by the consumer response to our innovations in this price category, our Mobile Phones business unit is planning to take actions to focus its product offering and improve product competitiveness.”

　　“在今年开局不利的情况下，第二季度后半段中，我们的移动电话部门开始显示出一些好转的迹象，”埃洛普说，“消费者对我们在这一价位的产品类别中所进行的创新做出了积极回应，这使我们很受鼓舞，我们的移动手机部门计划采取行动，将重心放在新产品的推出及提高产品竞争力上。”
