Sony cuts outlook again for smartphone business
2015-07-30 09:31:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) Sony reported revenues for its fiscal first quarter to June down 0.1 percent from a year earlier to JPY 1.808 trillion. On a constant currency basis, revenues fell 7 percent, due to lower sales of smartphones and TVs, offset by growth in its cameras, gaming and components. Operating profit jumped 39 percent to JPY 96.9 billion, and net profit more than tripled, to JPY 82.4 billion from JPY 26.8 billion a year ago. Profits were helped by a number of one-time gains, including on the acquisition of the music group The Orchard and a logistics joint venture. At the mobile business, revenues fell 16.3 percent to JPY 280.5 billion, and the operating loss swelled to JPY 22.9 billion from JPY 1.9 billion a year ago. Sony sold 7.2 million smartphones in the quarter, down from 9.4 million a year earlier and 7.9 million in the previous quarter. Sony attributed the fall to a strategic decision to focus on profitability over volume. The drop in sales is expected to continue, with the annual forecast cut to 27 million smartphones sold from an estimate in April of 30 million. The revenue forecast for mobile was cut to JPY 1.190 billion, and the operating loss in 2015 is now expected to be bigger, at around JPY 60 billion. The downgrade at mobile was offset by an upgrade in the outlook for the gaming and camera divisions, allowing Sony to maintain its group outlook for slightly lower revenues and a strong improvement in operating profit over the fiscal year.

Samsung Q2 profits fall as smartphone growth slows
2015-07-30 08:49:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) Samsung Electronics reported second-quarter net profit down to KRW 5.75 trillion from KRW 6.25 trillion a year ago, hurt by weaker results in consumer electronics and mobile phones. Revenues fell to KRW 48.54 trillion from KRW 52.35 trillion a year ago, and operating profit dropped to KRW 6.90 trillion from KRW 7.19 trillion. At the mobile division, revenues of KRW 26.06 trillion were up 1 percent from the first quarter but fell compared to KRW 28.45 trillion in the year-earlier period. Operating profit at the division nearly halved year-on-year, to KRW 2.76 trillion from KRW 4.42 trillion. Samsung said the sequential improvement in results was thanks to the launch of the Galaxy S6 smartphone, which helped increase the average selling price. However, smartphone shipments were still down compared to the previous quarter, as the S6 could not offset slower sales in the low-end and mid-range markets. Samsung said it expects growth in the smartphone market to slow in the second half of the year, with only a small sequential increase in sales in Q3. It plans to focus on the high end of the market, with strategic pricing of the S6 and launching more large-screen models. This should help grow smartphone shipments from Q3 while tablet sales are expected to remain flat.
