Hon Hai Chairman Young Liusaidin May that component shortages will affect shipments by 10% this year. In recent weeks, several chipmakers and car firmshave saidthe chip crunch is far from over.</p>\n<p>On Thursday, Liu said high comparison numbers in the previous quarter as well as product transitioning will result in the slight sequential sales decline in the consumer electronics unit. Total revenue will be little changed sequentially, Hon Hai said. Component shortages will last into the second quarter of next year, and the issue is having a limited impact on Hon Hai, Liu said.</p>\n<p>Hon Hai’s second-quarter net income rose to NT$29.8 billion ($1.07 billion), beating the NT$25.7 billion average of analysts’ estimates. Sales in the three months ended June rose 20% to NT$1.35 trillion, according to numbers reported previously.</p>\n<p>To ensure sufficient supplies going forward, Hon Hai, the world’s largest contract electronics manufacturer and main assembler of iPhones, has struck various semiconductor pacts. It agreed to acquire a mature 6-inch wafer plant from Macronix International Co., and is setting upa chip joint venture with Yageo Corp.</p>\n<p>The company, the flagship unit of Foxconn Technology Group, is also targeting electric vehicles to diversify its business beyond making gadgets for Apple, which accounts for about 50% of its revenue.</p>\n<p>The company will build electric-vehicle plants in various regions, including the U.S., where it is still looking for a production site, Liu said. It plans to start mass production of EVs in Thailand and the U.S. in 2023, he said.
