Description for case is given below :
The Nokia case provides an opportunity to explore financial policy in a situation of broad strategic change. In recent years, Nokia, the world’s leading producer of mobile phones, had seen its market share and profits eroded by rival products such as Apple’s iPhone and phones featuring Google’s Android operating system. In February 2011, Stephen Elop, the recently appointed president and CEO of Nokia, announced a broad strategic plan and partnership with Microsoft to correct the company’s course and improve its competitive position. Analysts regard the next two years as a period of great uncertainty for the company. The CFO of Nokia must reassess the firm’s financial policy in light of the plan and consider its effects on the potential need for external funds, and the appropriate mix and cost of the debt or equity financing that might be used to raise those funds. Nokia, like many technology companies, often carried high cash balances to preserve financial flexibility, but in 2008 and 2009 in response to the global financial crisis it had drawn down cash to historically low levels and experienced several downgrades of its debt by major credit rating agencies. Students must evaluate the tradeoffs between maintaining cash reserves and the need for external funds and work through the implications of financing the projected need for external funds with debt or equity.

Description for case is given below :
Founded in 1889 in Kyoto, Japan, Nintendo has always operated in the entertainment business, beginning with playing cards and, in the 1970s, entering the electronics and video game industry with a small handheld console. By investing in innovation to ensure continuing delivery of new recreational experiences, Nintendo was dominant until the mid-1990s when the two multinational giants, Sony and Microsoft, entered the market with large investment capital and promotional campaigns. Nintendo competed with these new challengers, but its Wii U and 3DS systems, launched in November 2012, met with little success. In 2014, the company faces many questions as it looks to move forward. Has it lost its innovative edge? Were its strengths in human resources and research and development not being leveraged to their full potential? Can the new strategic directions – to revitalize existing products, take advantage of smart devices, actively utilize existing character IPs and expand into other new markets and other new business areas – successfully revive the traditional dominant position of Nintendo in the game industry? Should it pursue strategic alliances or mergers and acquisitions to acquire required resources and competencies from outside to invest in product and market diversification?

Description for case is given below :
Quack.com was in dire straits. An early entrant in the voice portal market, Quack was quickly running out of money. The company’s management team had just returned from a road show for a second round of venture financing, but they had been unsuccessful. To exacerbate this issue, Quack’s two major competitors had each received substantial funding. At the current burn rate, Quack could survive on its bridge financing for only three more months. Moreover, after the first few months of running the voice portal, Quack’s business-to-consumer model for voice portals was already showing signs of weakness. Quack’s management believed the failure of its road show could be related to its B2C focus. The company was facing many major decisions that would reshape and dictate the future of the firm. This case deals with the possible options for new strategic direction.

Description for case is given below :
In September 2004, four months after Hungary joined the European Union, the strategy group of Matav, Hungary’s largest communications company, is working on its mid-term strategic plan. Since being privatized from the state in 1993, the company has seen several changes in its strategy, structure, and culture. Nearly 15 years later, the company is a fully integrated telecommunications company involved in a broad range of services, including fixed line telephony, mobile communications, Internet services, data transmission, and outsourcing. The company’s latest acquisition of a state-run telecommunications company is considered a success, and management believes that international expansion is necessary to realize dynamic growth as its domestic fixed line business is declining. In addition, Hungary’s mobile market is highly competitive and saturated with 80% of the country having mobile phones. The management team feels that Matav is at a crossroads with three main options: expansion in Hungary, regional expansion, or organic growth in existing product lines. The team has to consider all of the lines of business in forming a strategy and whether Matav’s resources and organization are suitable for a healthy future.
