On the other hand, the covid-19 epidemic has led to the gradual intensification of the contradiction between supply and demand of chips and semiconductors, which makes the shipment of some customers of the company less than expected.
Lens Technology Co.Ltd(300433) said that affected by the epidemic, overseas businesses typical of Vietnam Park continued to be affected in the second half of the year, and factors such as logistics obstruction and supply chain epidemic prevention and control affected the production and delivery of orders.

The company’s R & D projects and R & D expenses related to smart wearable products such as watches, VR and AR, new automotive products such as central control screen, B-pillar and new automotive glass, smart phone middle frame and other metal alloy products have increased significantly, It has a certain impact on the short-term operating performance.
