The revenue increased by 63% while the post-tax profit recorded a strong increase of 140% compared to the same period of the second quarter of 2020.

Therefore, after the end of the first 6 months of 2021, Digiworld gained a total revenue of VND9,225 billion, up 88% and the pre-tax profit of VND233 billion, up 139% over the same period in 2020.

Digiworld's business results are recorded specifically for each category as follows:

  • Laptop & tablet category: In the second quarter of 2020, due to the outbreak of the Covid-19 epidemic, which increased the demand for computers and laptops, Digiworld recorded a sharp increase in both revenue and profit. In addition, the second quarter is usually the lowest quarter of this category in the year, which makes the comparison base of the second quarter of 2021 even higher. However, in the second quarter of 2021, Digiworld still recorded a growth of 23% over the same period in 2020, reaching VND1,330 billion. This growth is thanks to all existing brands and the contribution of 2 new brands, namely Apple and Huawei.
  • Mobile phone category: In the second quarter of 2021, this is the category with the largest contribution to Digiworld's revenue. Specifically, the revenue from the mobile phone segment recorded a strong growth of 87% over the same period in 2020, reaching VND2,146 billion. This mobile segment contributed more than 50% of Digiworld's revenue for the whole second quarter of 2021. The growth of this category is thanks to Xiaomi's continuously increasing market share as well as the revenue contribution from Apple's iPhone lines.
  • Office equipment category: In this second quarter of 2021, Digiworld recorded the impressive revenue growth, reaching VND633 billion, up 122% over the same period last year. Digiworld has achieved these impressive results thanks to the diversity and suitability of many customer segments of IOT products from Xiaomi, Huawei and Apple brands. The revenue from these products is increasing and the trend of using IOT products is also increasing, making them the main growth driver of the Office Equipment category in the coming time.
  • Consumer goods category: In the second quarter of 2021, this is probably the one most affected by long periods of social distancing as well as a spending reduction of the people due to economic difficulties during the epidemic season, specially for health care products. However, consumer goods products for life such as detergent, fabric softener, toothpaste, dishwashing liquid, etc., still recorded positive signs. Therefore, the revenue of the consumer goods category in the second quarter of 2021 reached VND79 billion, up 34% compared to the same period last year.
