china: It expects net profit to fall 29.6 percent to 200 billion and operating profit to decrease 27.1 percent to 300 billion on sales of 7.90 trillion, down 1.3 percent, according to The Japan Times.

Net profit fell 13.2 percent to 49.78 billion in the first quarter of the business year ending March 2020 on sales of 1.89 trillion, down 5.9 percent, as the prolonged trade friction between China and the United States hurt its business in China, the Japanese electronics maker said. ; Panasonic maintained its full-year earnings forecast, which factors in the negative impact of the trade dispute between the world's two biggest economies on its sales in China. Sales of TVs in Europe and Asia were also sluggish, it said. The impact of Japan's imposition in early July of tighter export controls on some South Korea-bound materials used in making chips and displays for security reasons is small, Umeda said.
