Given intense competition in the global smartphone race, Samsung Electronics reported its third quarter earnings, showing a steep decline in profits of almost 60 percent compared to a year ago. Global profits during the quarter came in at $3.9 billion, which is in line with the guidance Samsung had previously issued. Revenues fell by about 20 percent to $45 billion when compared to the same quarter last year.
Samsung's earnings from its cash cow mobile business are now at a 3-year low, though business picked up from its displays, TVs, and memory divisions. The company is cautiously optimistic headed into the fourth quarter given the holiday shopping season.
