Nokia (NYSE:NOK) is one of the best multibagger stocks to buy in 2026. On May 12, Nokia won a UK Court of Appeal ruling that permanently blocks London lawsuits brought by Acer and Asus, canceling an upcoming trial over video coding patents. The decision overturns a previous High Court ruling that had favored the Taiwanese tech companies.

The appellate court halted the cases because Nokia offered to determine fair, reasonable, and non-discriminatory/FRAND licensing terms through arbitration. Another plaintiff, China-based Hisense, settled its related case prior to this appeal hearing.

The ruling impacts a broader global patent dispute. Before Acer and Asus launched the London lawsuits in June 2025, Nokia (NYSE:NOK) had already initiated its own patent litigation across the United States, Germany, India, and Brazil.

Nokia (NYSE:NOK) currently operates in network infrastructure, technology, and software fields. The company, known for its popular mobile phones in the 2000s, has built the infrastructure behind mobile and fixed networks, including 5G, fiber, cloud, and data center solutions.
