Samsung Electronics Co., the world's largest maker of memory chips and flat screen TVs, estimated Wednesday that it had posted an all-time high operating profit of 5 trillion won ($4.11 billion) for the April-June period.
The preliminary estimate represents nearly a two-fold increase from a profit of 2.67 trillion won a year earlier, Samsung said in a regulatory filing.
Second-quarter consolidated sales are estimated at 37 trillion won, up 17 percent from a year earlier, according to the South Korean company's earnings guidance.
Samsung, also the world's No. 2 mobile phone maker, plans to disclose its second-quarter earnings later this month.
The company did not offer a breakdown for its business divisions, but its mainstay semiconductor business and liquid-crystal display (LCD) panels have likely led the record profit, analysts said.
