After setting expectations in late November, HTC reported a significant dip in revenue on Tuesday as competition from the likes of Apple and Samsung continues to heat up. The Taiwan-based vendor took in NT$30.95 billion during the month of November, down 20% compared to November 2010 and 30% sequentially. HTC warned last month that revenue in the fourth quarter would be significantly lower than it had previously anticipated, and the company cut its fourth-quarter forecast by 23% as a result. The vendor now expects fourth-quarter revenue to total NT$104 billion. HTC’s November revenue statement follows below.
