Nokia expects the sale of its HERE mapping division to close tomorrow.
According to a press release, Nokia said that with all regulatory approvals in hand, it now expects to complete the sale of HERE to a consortium of automotive companies, comprising AUDI AG, BMW Group and Daimler AG, ahead of schedule on December 4, 2015.
Nokia confirmed the $3.07 billion sale back in August and had earlier expected the transaction to close in the first quarter of 2016.
As of the end of June, HERE had 6,454 employees.
The news comes on the same day Nokia announced final approval of its merger with Alcatel-Lucent.
