Nothing Denies Market Exit Rumors Amid Business Reorganization Plans
Nothing has denied reports claiming it is shutting down operations in over a dozen international markets and conducting large-scale layoffs. The company’s co-founder, Akis Evangelidis, called these claims fake news, stating the Nothing Phone (4b) sold nearly 30,000 units on its first day, breaking records in its price segment. While acknowledging a business reorganization involving dedicated units and regional hubs, Nothing emphasized that India remains a priority and that support and product availability will continue unchanged. The company described workforce reduction figures as exaggerated and focused on preparing for future growth.
