LG Innotek announced on the 24th that its consolidated operating profit for the first quarter of this year was tentatively estimated at 176 billion KRW, an increase of 21.12% compared to the same period last year.
Sales amounted to 4.3336 trillion KRW, a decrease of 0.97% compared to the same period last year. Net profit increased by 66.26% to 138.5 billion KRW.
An LG Innotek official stated, "Despite the seasonal off-season and weak front-end IT demand due to the global economic downturn, profitability improved thanks to the supply of high-performance premium products, active internal cost improvement activities, and favorable exchange rate effects."
Park Ji-hwan, CFO (Executive Director), said, "We will continue to strengthen quality and price competitiveness through digital manufacturing process innovation and production operation efficiency, and pursue profit-based growth by focusing on high value-added products."
He added, "We are rapidly building a business structure for sustainable growth, led by future mobility core components such as sensing, communication, and lighting modules, as well as high value-added semiconductor substrates like FC-BGA."
