Here are Samsung's results compared with the guidance it issued earlier this month:
Revenue: 79.1 trillion won vs. 79 trillion
Operating profit: 9.18 trillion vs. 9.1 trillion won
Those guidance figures were markedly lower than the LSEG estimate for 11.456 trillion won in operating profit. Samsung Vice Chairman Jun Young-hyun, the new head of the company's device solutions division, issued a rare apology after the guidance release.
