Samsung's Q1 profit drops 96% due to chip glut and tech slump.

Samsung Electronics reported a likely 96% plunge in first-quarter operating profit due to a chip glut and slowing customer purchasing sentiment amid a global economic slowdown. The company estimated its operating profit fell to 600 billion won ($455.50 million) in January-March, from 14.12 trillion won a year earlier. The profit fell short of analysts' forecasts, and revenue likely fell 19% from the same period a year earlier to 63 trillion won.
