HTC One: most important challenge to CEO Peter Chou - HTC HDblog.it - ??HDblog (Blog)

After the official announcement of financial results for the first quarter of HTC, took place yesterday, there have been new comments analysts and “insiders” who have traced further the framework of the company’s financial performance. Comments that, in some cases, have been particularly hard against the CEO Peter Chou, who plays with HTC One what could be his final match. In case of failure, in fact, the pressure to lead to the replacement of the historic company’s CEO may be more intense.

Under analysts, however, does echo that of Peter Chou that is anything but discouraged by the recent financial results and appeared still very combative. The CEO of HTC HTC One knows that is the true product of the turn, what could actually afford to HTC to ask yourself not only as a “Taiwanese”, but as a strong brand globally. Peter Chou in the first interview after the disclosure of the financial results for the first quarter of 2013, says about it:

Into This is really the first time we are able to enter that area that allows you to become a top brand globally

Among the most critical voices against HTC are those of Daiwa Securities Group analysts who say:

Into If HTC fails again, then they will be under pressure to replace the CEO. HTC One is their last chance to come back after two years of decline

Pressures on CEO could come from the board of directors, even if they are well-known relations between the President Chou and Cher Wang co-founder with Chou company and her good friend, even before colleague. Until now, Wang has always rejected any possibility of withdrawal of confidence in Chou, even in the most difficult moments.

The stakes remain high and the CEO is named to his toughest challenge. The excellent reception given to HTC One by audiences and critics is an important element that should allow Chou to worry exclusively marketing activities and product distribution, as for the rest, the indices of success are very high.

Despite the critical voice of some analysts, Chou is more combative and determined than ever:

People say that when a company undergoes a failure, no longer has a chance to recover, but the reason for the lack of recovery is lagata to a reaction too slow. We want to be a company that acts quickly before you have a big problem.

and adds:

We are a company that has a strong capacity for recovery. We will not surrender easily

The words of Peter Chou describe the right spirit to deal with the rehabilitation of the market share lost in the previous two years by pointing to the distribution of a smartphone like HTC One very successful.

For completeness, we point out that the critical voice of the analysts at Daiwa Securities Group, opposed those of other analysts, such as JP Morgan, on the contrary, they raised the ratings of HTC shares in the days past, after noting an improvement in the distribution of the top range of HTC Android.
