PCB maker HannStar Board continues to be cautious about its outlook for the rest of 2019, citing uncertainty in customer orders.
The threat of tariff hikes on China-made notebooks, tablets and other mass-market consumer electronics devices may be easing, but unfavorable global trade conditions and other negative macro factors will lead to a particularly weak second half of 2019, HannStar Board indicated. The PCB firm continued that profitability will also be affected but depend mostly on costs.
