"I am unbelievably proud of how we continue to respond to the global pandemic, as both a business and a corporate citizen. While the world continues to face uncertain times, I'm confident Lenovo will leverage its operational excellence and global footprint to continue implementing our intelligent transformation strategy and fully grasp the new opportunities," Yang added.

As regards the COVID-19 pandemic, Lenovo said it leveraged the power of more than 30 in-house and third-party manufacturing sites around the world to adjust capacity and rebalance production.

Looking ahead, this foundational capability, together with ongoing innovation, will continue to drive business as the company seizes long-term growth opportunities the new normal of working and studying from home is creating. This trend is not only leading to a growth in PC and smart devices, but also in supporting data centers and infrastructure to power faster networks and digital consumption.
