Samsung Electronics has provided an earnings guidance for the third quarter, with revenues and profit seen lower year-on-year, but higher on a sequential basis. Samsung said it expects revenues at KRW 61-63 trillion, off from last year’s 65.46 trillion but better than the 56.13 trillion reported in the second quarter.
The operating profit meanwhile is expected at KRW 7.6-7.8 trillion, a steep drop from the record figure of 17.57 trillion achieved the year before. Compared to the previous quarter’s KRW 5.18 trillion however, the number is an improvement.
Samsung provided no further details.
