Officials of HTC have confirmed the sale of land and factory buildings in Shanghai. The purchaser is Shanghai S&P Information Technology Co., Ltd. The total transaction amount is 630 million yuan and it is estimated that the profit will be approximately 147 million yuan.

In recent years, HTC’s revenue has fallen and losses have been continuous. The heavy head project VR is still in the investment phase. Perhaps it is the pressure of being trapped in losses. HTC finally can only sell the plant to cash out.

HTC said that the sale of land and factory buildings will not affect the existing organizational structure, personnel arrangements and production plans. The purpose is to improve operational efficiency and optimize company assets without affecting the company's mobile phone business. The HTC mobile phone production line is concentrated in Taoyuan, Taiwan, China. The transfer of the Shanghai factory will not affect the production capacity and operation. HTC will continue to focus on the high-end mobile phone market.

At that time, HTC also sold a factory located in Taoyuan, Taiwan, for US$183 million. There are currently about three factories in Taoyuan, Taiwan.
