Analysts project slower business for Foxconn after the iPhone maker posted weaker-than-expected third-quarter earnings, reflecting slowing sales to its major manufacturing partner Apple Inc. Analysts warned of declining shipments in coming quarters for Foxconn, an electronics manufacturer whose biggest customer is Apple. The Japanese investment bank Nomura said the company will crank out 11% fewer iPhones in 2019. Foxconn, formally known as Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. Ltd., joined several Apple suppliers in getting downgrades from financial institutions amid rising concerns over cooling demand for Apple products. Foxconn said late Tuesday its third-quarter net profit rose 18% from a year earlier to NT$24.9 billion (US$806 million). Revenue gained 28% to TN$1.38 trillion. Foxconn's shares closed down 1.5% Wednesday in Taiwan.
