Such sanctions on Huawei are, however, likely to have ramifications beyond the company itself, analysts said.
On the other hand, U.S. companies like Apple face the risk of severe retaliation from China, a key market.It will be tough for Huawei too, the person said, noting none of its U.S. suppliers “can be replaced by Chinese ones, not within a few years, at least. By then, they are already dead.”Revenue for the company, also the world’s second-biggest maker of smartphones, touched 721-billion yuan last year, eight times ZTE’s and half the annual sales of South Korea’s Samsung Electronics Co.
“They can relatively better manage component sourcing for mobile phones because they have their own component businesses for smartphones. But server and network, it’s a different story,” the executive said.

“The bigger concern would be U.S. allies that used to buy Huawei’s components may not continue businesses with Huawei, because of fear of possibly upsetting the United States,” said Doh Hyun-woo, an analyst at NH Investment & Securities in Seoul.
