Samsung Electronics' Q2 operating profit inches down 삼성전자 2분기영업이익 약간 하락

[김우정]

삼성전자의 2분기 잠정매출액은 77조원으로 회사역사상 2위를 기록했습니다.

영업이익도 전년동기대비 11.38% 증가한 14조원으로 전망됩니다.

그러나 하반기에는 PC와 스마트폰의 수요감소로 매출이 부진할것으로 전망됩니다.

반도체매출도 부정적인 외부환경속에 저조할 것으로 예상됩니다.

Analysts expect firm's chip business to slow down in 2nd half
애널리스트들은 하반기 반도체 영업실적하락 전망

Samsung Electronics suffered a slight decrease in earnings in the second quarter from the previous three-month period, due to lower demand for its smartphones, TVs and other home appliances, according to tentative data the company unveiled Thursday.
목요일 발표한 잠정자료에 의하면 삼성전자는 스마트폰, TV와 다른 가전기기의 수요감소로 전분기보다 이익이 약간 감소했다.
 
Samsung released its preliminary earnings results for the April-June period, with sales falling 1 percent to 77 trillion won ($59.2 billion) and operating profit edging down 0.85 percent to 14 trillion won compared to the first quarter. Sales surged 20.94 percent year-on-year, while operating profit rose 11.38 percent.
삼성은 2분기 매출이 1분기 대비 1% 감소한 77조원(592억 달러), 영업이익은 0.85% 감소한 14조원이 될 것으로 잠정자료를 발표했다. 매출액은 전년동기대비 20.94% 상승했고 영업이익은 11.38% 상승했다.

Second-quarter sales were the second-highest in the company's history. The highest sales record so far was 77.78 trillion won achieved in the first quarter of this year.
2분기 매출은 회사 역사상 2번째로 높은 것이었다. 역사상 분기 최고매출은 올해 1분기에 달성한 77조 7,800억원이었다.

The tech giant did not break down the earnings figures by business division. But industry analysts said Samsung was able to maintain solid earnings in the second quarter thanks to strong memory chip sales despite sluggish smartphone and home appliance earnings.
이 테크 대기업은 영업이익을 사업부문별로 나누어 발표하지 않았다. 그러나 애널리스트들은 삼성이 스마트폰과 가전부문의 부진한 이기에도 불구하고 메모리 반도체매출상승으로 2분기에 견고한 이익을 지속할 것이라고 말했다.
 
Samsung was able to maintain solid earnings in the first quarter thanks to its strong grip on memory chips, but concerns are growing over a slowdown in the semiconductor industry, because interest rates continue to rise, casting dark clouds over private consumption, according to analysts.
애널리스트들에 의하면 삼성은 메모리반도체부문의 강력한 장악력으로 견조한 이익을 유지하겠지만 이자율의 지속적인 인상, 개인소비의 먹구름으로 반도체산업침체에 대한 우려가 커지고있다.

Analysts expected the chip business to slow down in the second half of 2022 due to a sharp drop in demand for smartphones and PCs caused by increasing interest rates, China's lockdown of major cities to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine war.
애널리스트들은 2022년 하반기에 이자율 상승, 코비드19확산을 막기위한 중국의 주요도시 봉쇄, 러시아-우크라이나 전쟁으로 인한 PC와 스마트폰 수요의 가파른 감소를 전망했다.

"Samsung is facing an environment where unfavorable external factors continue after the first quarter. Concerns over sluggish IT demand are growing due to the possibility of an economic slowdown," Park Sung-soon, an analyst at Cape Investment & Securities, said.
“삼성은 1분기이후 부정적인 외부요인들이 계속되는 외부환경에 직면하고있다. 경제침체의 가능성에 대한 우려가 증가하고 있다.” 고 케이프 투자증권의 박성순 애널리스트는 말했다.
 
Global smartphone makers are reducing purchases of components, including chips, to reduce their inventory levels due to low demand. Industry watchers project PC sales to decrease by 10 percent year-on-year.
글로벌 스마트폰 제조회사들은 수요감소로 재고수준을 낮추기 위해 칩을 포함한 부품의 구매를 줄이고있다. 산업관계자들은 PC 판매가 전년동기대비 10% 감소할 것으로 전망했다.
 
Due to these unfavorable factors, the growth rate of DRAM memory chip shipments, which were predicted to increase 18.7 percent in 2022 from a year, has been revised down to 14.7 percent.
이러한 부정적인 요인들 때문에 2022년의 전년동기대비 D램 메모리칩 선적 증가율을 18.7%에서 14.7%로 하향 전망했다.

Despite negative factors, Samsung Display, a subsidiary of Samsung Electronics that oversees the company's monitor business, was estimated to generate a decent operating profit of between 800 billion won and 900 billion won, thanks to displays supplied to Apple's mobile devices, which continue to enjoy robust global demand.
삼성전자의 모니터비즈니스를 수행하는 계열회사인 삼성디스플레이는 부정적인 요인에도 불구하고 지속적이고 견조한 세계수요를 발생하고 있는 애플의 모바일장치에 공급하고 있는 덕분에 영업이익이 8천억원에서 9천억원사이의 상당한 영업이익을 실현할 것으로 전망된다.

Lee Seung-woo, head of research at Eugene Investment & Securities, pointed out that chances are growing that a U.S. interest hike will trigger a global economic slowdown and further burden the Korean chipmaker in the second half of 2022.
투자증권의 이승우 리서치 센터장은 미국의 이자율인상이 세계경제 침체를 촉발할 것이고 2022년 하반기 한국의 반도체 업체의 추가적인 부담이 증가할 가능성이 증가하고 있다고 지적했다.
