Ericsson not to see profit from 3G until 2004
September 11, 2002
Ericsson's 3G network business will not be profitable until 2004
at the earliest because of operators' delays in rolling out the
technology, analysts said.
Also Ericsson's sales next year of equipment for 3G -- an always-on,
high-speed technology that enables mobile phones to send and receive
multimedia messages -- will be much lower than previously expected,
they said.
Of six analysts surveyed, five expect Ericsson to show an operating
profit in 3G in 2004, while one said Ericsson would not be profitable
in the technology until 2005.
In March analysts had said Telefon AB LM Ericsson, the world's
biggest wireless networks maker, would show positive operating margins
in 3G as early as 2003.
"I have lowered my forecast since then on the grounds that telecom
operators' rollout plans have been further delayed," one analyst
said. "Now I expect break-even at the end of 2003 and the first
full year with positive operating profits will be 2004."
