SEOUL (Reuters) - Samsung Electronics Co Ltd (KS:005930) does not expect major change for its television business after Hon Hai Precision Industry Co Ltd (TW:2317) completes its planned acquisition of display panel maker Sharp Corp (T:6753), a senior Samsung executive said on Tuesday.
Kim Hyun-suk, head of Samsung's TV business, told reporters during a press conference that the world's No.1 TV maker by market share is currently the biggest buyer of panels from the Sakkai plant - a joint venture between Sharp and Hon Hai.
"Of course it's hard to predict what might happen in the future ... but I don't expect any material changes in our business," Kim said.
