Samsung has just announced its financial results for the fourth quarter of 2020 and the full fiscal year, and the numbers look impressive for both periods. The company saw a 26% increase in profit just for the October-December period, compared with the same three months in 2019, while sales increased ever so slightly - just under 3%.
Samsung has also recorded a nearly 30% increase in profit for the whole pandemic-disrupted calendar year, while sales improved by KRW6 trillion ($5.36 billion) on a yearly basis, but a quarter of the gains (approximately KRW1.4 trillion/$1.2 billion) were erased due to the “aggressive” exchange rate between the Korean won and the US dollar.

The mobile division recorded a decrease both in sales and operating profit during the holiday period. Q4 2020 saw only KRW2.4 trillion ($2.14 billion) in profit, which was 34% less than Q4 2019, and Samsung said this was due to weaker sales (from KRW24.74 trillion/$22.13 billion to KRW22.34 trillion/$20 billion) and marketing spending. However, the yearly results are in line with expectations following "continued efforts to optimize costs".
Looking ahead, Q1 2021 might be slow for the overall smartphone market. Still, the Korean company expects both revenue and profit to rise following the early introduction of the Galaxy S21 series, as well as “product mix improvement.”
Samsung’s golden hen in 2020 was the display business - the division posted the highest ever sale of mobile phone panels and saw an increase in TV screen prices, leading to a sharp increase in cash flow. While the next three months won’t be the most impressive, Samsung is confident its performance will be strong due to major consumers adopting more and more OLED panels.
