Huawei Revealed First-Half Revenue
Despite experiencing massive political headwinds, Huawei showed off a 23.2% year-over-year revenue increase for the first half of 2019.
In addition to that, the Chinese tech giant’s total revenue reached 401.3 billion yuan or $58.26 billion. And its net profit margin for the period came in at 8.7%. The company reported in a press release that the business is going smooth and the organization is as enthusiastic as ever.
Aside from that, the carrier business of Huawei, where core networking equipment sold, announced 146.5 billion yuan in sales revenue.
Recently, the tech giant acquired 50 commercial 5g contracts with top global telecommunication carriers. The company is famous for being one of the leading names to develop nascent 5g technology. However, it is currently experiencing a pile of fears regarding its technology, enabling Chinese espionage using those high-speed mobile networks. And Huawei repeatedly denied all allegations that its products have any risk.
Even with the continuous assurance from Huawei, some countries such as the United States, Australia, New Zealand, and Japan banned the firm’s participation in 5g growth within their borders.
Huawei Chairman Liang Hua stated, “We continue to see growth even after we were added to the entity list.” And Hua revealed that they still face difficulties, which may affect the pace of the growth for the short term.
