Full-year profit increased 625 per cent to $161m, compared with $22m the previous year.Lenovo completed its $1.75bn acquisition of IBM's struggling PC business in May 2005 and moved its headquarters to Raleigh, North Carolina.
“It was a solid quarter and strong fiscal year by any number of measures,” said Yang Yuanqing, Lenovo chairman. “Our performance confirms we have stabilised our business worldwide.”
中国电脑企业联想(Lenovo)昨日宣布，全年净利润大幅飙升，这是表明该公司开始重振个人电脑业务的初步迹象。两年前，联想从IBM手中收购了该项业务。该公司全年利润剧增625%至1.61亿美元，上年为2200万美元。
联想于2005年5月完成了对IBM处于困境的个人电脑业务的收购，价格为17.5亿美元，并将公司总部迁往北卡罗莱纳州的Raleigh。
联想董事长杨元庆表示：“以任何标准衡量，这都是一个出色的（第四）季度和强劲的财政年度。我们的业绩表明，我们的全球业务已经启稳。”
