MOTOROLA Inc used cost-cutting rather than brisk sales to deliver a fourth-quarter profit yesterday, but a gloomy profit forecast sent its shares sliding.
Motorola showed strong sales of new phones, shipping 2 million units. But overall cell phone sales were lower than expected at 12 million units. And total revenue came to US$5.7 billion.
Motorola earned US$142 million, reversing a loss of US$3.66 billion in the same period a year earlier, due to a huge accounting charge.
