Lenovo Q2 earnings; the highest-ever PC market share
PC maker Lenovo has reported its earnings for Q2, and the results are impressive: $8.7 billion in sales, a record high, a PC market share of 15.6 percent, it’s largest ever and operating profit of $206 million, 24 percent higher than the same period last year.
Even if profit growth is a bit slower than previous quarters, mostly due to reaching into new markets like tablets, smartphones and connected TVs, for now Lenovo can claim the crown as the world’s largest laptop PC maker. Desktop sales were also up five percent from last year, and the mobile internet division reported sales of $718 million, thus coming second largest seller in China of smartphones and tablets.
