Toshiba has announced upward revisions to its profit guidance for the first half of its fisccal 2010, thanks to strong earnings in the semiconductor business, notably NAND flash memory. The vendor also noted its LCD operations returned to profitability during the period.
However, Toshiba's net sales for the six months ended September 30 are expected to fall short of its previoius estimate, mainly due to the yen's appreciation, the company said.
Actual results will be announced on November 9, 2010.
