Compal Communications may see handset shipments improve in 4Q
Compal Communications, the largest handset contract maker for Motorola in Taiwan, is expected to see its handset shipments improve in the fourth quarter after Motorola reported better-than-expected performance for the third quarter, according to sources at Taiwan handset makers.
The seven W-series handsets, the W156, W160, W175, W180, W206, W213, W377, which Motorola launched recently, are all manufactured by Compal Communications, the sources indicated.
Based on the component orders that Compal has placed with suppliers, Compal is expected to ship a total of 10-12 million handsets in the fourth quarter, including 6-7 million W-series models and 4-5 million C-series models, estimated the sources.
Compal shipped 11.6 million handsets in the third quarter of 2007, brining its handset shipments for the first three quarters to 36.9 million units, or 73.8% of its revised target of 50 million units for 2007, according to company data.
