The impressive performance of Samsung’s semiconductor division boosted its earnings in the past, with the trend continued last quarter as Samsung reported strong results again. Additionally, the early launch of Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 Plus also boosted the earnings.

However, the story might be a little different this quarter. Analysts from Eugene Investment and Securities, eBest Investment Securities, DB Financial Investment, and KTB Investment and Securities have predicted that the lackluster sales of Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 Plus will cause the profits to decrease in the second quarter of 2018.
