Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. Chairman Terry Gou said steps to more efficiently make Apple Inc. products including the iPad will start to pay off in the second half of this year and next year.
The contract electronics assembler’s profit gains have lagged behind those of Apple because the devices are “very difficult to make,” Gou said today at Taipei-based Hon Hai’s annual shareholders meeting. The company is continuously learning ways to make the products more efficiently, he said.
