Samsung SDI Slightly Increased Battery Sales In Q2 2020

Higher growth is expected in the second half of the year.

Samsung SDI increased its revenues in the second quarter of 2020 by over 6%, despite the COVID-19 lockdown hampering the results, especially in Europe.

The net profits went down significantly in Q2, although it is actually good to show any profits these days.
