LG slips for first time in six years

LG Electronics has predicted it will make its first quarterly operating loss in six years in October-December.

As you might expect the drop is because of continued mobile losses and but appliances sales as weak at that time of year too.

LG is the second-biggest telly maker behind Samsung and it thinks it will suffer a $29.36 million loss for the fourth quarter, its first since a bigger loss in the fourth quarter of 2010.

Most analysts were expecting LG to come up with a profit although some thought a loss was inevitable.

LG said revenue for the quarter likely rose 1.5 percent. The firm did not disclose further details on its earnings and will release full results including performance by individual businesses at the end of January.
