Home Appliances, Air Solution and TV account for LG's sales

The Home Appliances and Air Solution (H&A) and TV (HE) businesses of LG Electronics accounted for most of the company’s earnings. In Q3, the H&A business division’s quarterly sales reached KRW 7 trillion for the first time. New home appliance sales, such as stylers and dryers, also reached new highs. Aside from OLED TV, which achieved a new high by more than tripling shipments over the previous year, the company also improved its performance in the Vehicle Component Solution (VS) division, which is growing orders in the reviving car market.

In 2022, both Samsung and LG Electronics will continue to showcase growth. Samsung Electronics is likely to surpass KRW 300 trillion in annual sales for the first time. With significant premium TV sales and a reversal in the electronics market, LG Electronics is predicted to generate KRW 76 trillion in sales and KRW 5 trillion in operating profit.
