Between July and September Samsung profit was $7.5 billion, representing a decrease of 23%. relative to the results obtained in the second quarter. This value also represents 31% less than in the third quarter of 2021.. This is the first annual (y/y) decline in earnings in a three-year period, even with the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic leading to the closure of several factories.

Cell division remains strong

On the other hand, Smartphone division reports $2.2 billion profitthe value is higher than in the third quarter of 2021. Samsung attributed the result to sales of the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4 foldable phones. While the company won’t comment on exact sales numbers, the company said the new models performed better than the previous generation.

According to Samsung the Galaxy S22 line also performed well. “Looking at the latest quarter, market demand for smartphones and wearables is projected to increase quarter-on-quarter due to year-on-year seasonal fluctuations, even after taking into account geopolitical issues and macroeconomic volatility,” Samsung said.

Despite expectations that the smartphone market will continue to perform well, the sharp drop in profits is a sign of the strong impact of the current global economic situation on the technology sector. It looks like the company is unlikely to achieve significant growth in the last quarter of the year.
