Fujitsu, Toshiba to merge

富士通東芝聯(lián)手戰(zhàn)夏普

Japanese electronics makers Fujitsu and Toshiba have agreed to merge their mobile phone operations and will set up a joint venture on October 1, the Wall Street Journal reported Thursday. The deal would create the 2nd-largest cellphone maker in the country after Sharp. Analysts said the move would be a plus for Toshiba, whose cellphone operations have been losing money, but it is neutral for Fujitsu.

據(jù)《華爾街日報》17日報道，日本電子制造商富士通和東芝已同意合并其手機業(yè)務，并將于10月1日組建合資公司，打造僅次于夏普的日本第二大手機制造商。分析人士認為，由于東芝的手機業(yè)務持續(xù)呈現(xiàn)虧損，此舉對東芝有利，但對富士通的影響并不明顯。
