Hon Hai Precision Industry Co (鴻海精密) yesterday said that its second-quarter financial results met the company’s expectations and forecast that third-quarter revenue would be higher than the second quarter, but lower than a year earlier.

Net profit was NT$22.88 billion (US$774.5 million) last quarter, skyrocketing 998 percent from the previous quarter and rising 34 percent from a year earlier.

That translated into earnings per share of NT$1.65, up from NT$0.15 in the first quarter and NT$1.23 a year earlier.

Second-quarter revenue was NT$1.13 trillion, a 21 percent increase from the previous quarter, but a 3 percent decline from a year earlier.    [FULL  STORY]
