 The U.S.-listed shares of Ericsson ERIC, -0.99 ERIC.B, 7.07 surged 7.2 toward a one-month high in premarket trading Thursday, after the Sweden-based communications services company said it will record a SEK2.3 billion 220 million charge for a potential resolution with the U.S. Department of Justice regarding alleged breaches under its 2019 Deferred Prosecution Agreement DPA. The company said it believes the charge, which will be booked in fourth-quarter results, is a sufficiently reliable estimate of the penalty associated with any breach resolution.
