Shares of Apple's Asian suppliers dipped after the global tech titan reported iPhone sales that missed analyst estimates and said revenue in China slumped.[SINGAPORE] Shares of Apple's Asian suppliers dipped after the global tech titan reported iPhone sales that missed analyst estimates and said revenue in China slumped.
Apple shares dropped 4 per cent in after-hours trading after the company reported that sales of the iPhone fell 21 per cent in the September-ended quarter on anticipation of the newest models, which arrived later than usual this year. Chief executive officer Tim Cook said the response to the new iPhone 12 line, which was launched earlier this month, has been"tremendously positive".
Among Asian suppliers, Lens Technology dropped as much as 6.2 per cent in Shenzhen, while Alps Alpine slumped 5 per cent in Tokyo, Flexium Interconnect slid 4.1 per cent in Taiwan and ASM Pacific Technology fell 3.6 per cent in Hong Kong. Still it wasn't quite the bloodbath that past reactions in the Asia supply chain would have led investors to expect. Some key names including Murata Manufacturing, Taiyo Yuden and LG Innotek only fell by about 2 per cent or 3 per cent.
"People, at least in this part of the world, are expecting the iPhone 12, and particularly 5G handset sales, to get a boost in this holiday quarter, which is why supplier shares haven't moved much," said Pan Jingyi, a strategist at IG Asia.
