The struggle is real: HTC's November revenue drops 26% year-over-year
HTC has disclosed its earnings report for November 2017, and things are not looking good. The manufacturer's revenue for the last month stands at NT$5.663 billion (~$188 million), down 6.61% from October and a whopping 26.16% from November 2016. Total sales for the January-November period have reached NT$58,1 billion (~$1.93 billion), a notable 19.03% lower than the same period of 2016.
HTC monthly revenues for 2017
HTC's fall from grace is a real shame, as the company can be regarded as one of the true innovators in the smartphone space. For example, the HTC One M7 from 2013 was one of the first smartphones that featured a metal unibody, while the One M8 used a secondary camera for bokeh effects way before the iPhone 7 Plus.
HTC has vowed to keep making smartphones in 2018, but at this point, the company will need to pull a rabbit out of a hat in order to stay afloat.
