Samsung posts impressive growth in RAN third quarter revenues

Samsung has posted the largest sequential growth in RAN revenues in the third quarter of 2013 at 44.6 percent which is also 101.4 percent ahead of the year-ago quarter, ABI Research said.

Chinese telecom equipment vendor Huawei maintained its #1 rank in RAN market share at 28.1 percent, down 3 points from 2Q 2013 and up 3.8 points from the year-ago quarter.

Alcatel-Lucent increased its RAN revenue by 20.1 percent sequentially to gain the #3 spot ahead of NSN which dropped to #4 with RAN revenues slightly ahead of normal seasonality for the market.

Ericsson maintained its #2 rank position with RAN revenues in line with normal seasonality.

Alcatel-Lucent’s results were due to strong growth in LTE driven by the US market in addition to positive trends in both the APAC and EMEA regions with LTE revenues more than doubling year-over-year, thanks to the company’s LTE overlay strategy.

According to NSN its y-o-y decrease in mobile broadband revenue was primarily due to lower sales in WCDMA, GSM, and CDMA. LTE revenue was flat this quarter as higher sales in North America, Europe and Latin America offset lower sales in Japan and Korea.

The Korean device major Samsung’s #5 ranked position is unchanged from the previous quarter but the company also attributes its large sequential growth in RAN revenue to increased LTE sales in overseas markets.
