Wistron's first-half 2015 notebook shipments fell far short of expectation and the second-half volume will not grow more than 10% sequentially, according to company chairman and CEO Simon Lin. Wistron's consolidated revenues and net operating profit for 2014 slipped on year by 5.07% and 38.15% respectively and this was due to decreased shipments of notebooks and smartphones, decreased utilization of overall production capacity arising from relocating factories in China as well as worse-than-expected performance in new business operation.
