ZTE's net profit attributable to common shareholders for the fiscal year of 2020 decreased by 15.18% on a year-on-year basis to RMB 4.367 billion ($674 million), ZTE said in earnings released today.
The decline was mainly due to a one-time pre-tax gain of RMB 2.662 billion from asset disposals in the third quarter of 2019, resulting in a higher base of net profit in the fiscal year of 2019.
