LG Electronics swings to Q3 profit on surprise handset result

LG Electronics Inc, Korea’s renowned manufacturer of electronics and home

appliances, swung to a surprise third-quarter profit as its mobile phone business

reported a welcome return to the black on a stronger product line-up. LG’s July

to September operating profit recorded 221 billion won ($200.3 million) from a

32 billion won loss a year ago, above consensus forecast of 172 billion won by 13 analysts surveyed by Reuters.

LG is the world’s third largest mobile phone manufacturer and the global leader

in mobile touch phones sales sky rocketted in the third quarter of this year as

unprecedented demand in Asia lifted its global market share.

LG’s increased sales performance of their mobile phones comes in the wake of

strong speculation that the mobile market had been expected to shrink amid

the global economic downturn, leaving handset makers striving to prop up sales

by focusing on a few growth areas such as smartphones and emerging markets.

The CEO of LG’s mobile communications has stated that the company is aiming

to maintain a steady market share and become one of the largest players in the mobile field. Abans (Pvt) Ltd. the trading arm of the prestigious Abans Group, is the sole agent for LG mobile phones in Sri Lanka with their head office located at Abans Arcade in Galle Road, Kollupitiya.
