"In the past quarter, our business in China continued its high growth and captured additional market share, while our worldwide market share also grew," said Yang Yuanqing, LenovoeIUs chairman. "At the same time, our operational efficiency improved due to our restructuring efforts. However, due to slow growth in mature PC markets and intensified competition, we did face some challenges in certain segments. We remain sharply focused on enhancing our cost structure, sales model, product competitiveness and supply chain efficiency, so as to further enhance our core competitiveness and build a world-class business model. The board and the management team are highly confident in the ultimate results of these initiatives."

William J. Amelio, LenovoeIUs president and chief executive officer, said, "We are confident that the business is moving in the right direction and that we will soon begin to see the benefits of our strategic initiatives and hard work. Our expense reductions are on track, and we are making solid progress against the four key initiatives eI transaction model rollout, supply chain improvements, desktop competitiveness and brand-building eI introduced last quarter. We are moving carefully and sensibly to enhance operational excellence and, therefore, our market competitiveness, but as weeIUve said in the past, the full benefits of those actions will take several quarters to realize."
