Samsung said in a regulatory filing the period of the contract, signed with Verizon Sourcing LLC, is from June 30, 2020 to Dec. 31, 2025. It did not give details in the filing.
Verizon had already been a customer of Samsung before the order. Verizon CEO Hans Vestberg told CNBC in July last year that Verizon doesn’t use any Huawei equipment.
Verizon is believed to be Nokia’s (HE:NOKIA) biggest customer, JP Morgan research said in a July note.
