Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra
Samsung announced today First quarter 2022 financial report, the data showed that operating profit reached $11.12 billion in the quarter, up 51% from a year ago, and revenue for the same period reached a record $61.2 billion. As in the past, the memory segment was a standout. The segment beat forecasts to record $21.14 billion in revenue, as memory prices did not fall as analysts had forecast. While the segment’s profits fell slightly due to incentives and seasonality, demand from the PC and server markets provided steady support for the results. In addition, Samsung’s foundry business also achieved the highest single-quarter sales in history this quarter, which also helped the memory division. Overall, Samsung is optimistic about the division’s prospects, but it expects a global component shortage to continue into the second half of the year, during which time they will keep an eye on it and make adjustments in due course.

Samsung’s mobile display business also grew as high-end handsets focused on debuting at the beginning of the year.As for large-size panels, QD products have received good market feedback. QD-OLED Technology also has expectations. However, the TV division performed poorly in Q1, which was partly affected by the Russian-Ukrainian war. Since the beginning of March, Samsung has stopped shipping to Russia, where there is also a Samsung TV factory. The development of the conflict between the two countries still does not have a clear direction, so Samsung’s local business prospects are still unclear.
