China Digital TV Holdings, which is NASDAQ-registered but trades in ‘smart card’ digital technology in China, has suffered a setback in its Q3 performance. Adjusted Net income tumbled to $1.72 million from $5.24 million in the same period last year.
Overall revenues fell back to $17.7 million (from $23.45 million). The company’s share price fell back 5.4 per cent to $3.51. The company shipped about 3.55 million smart cards in Q3 (down from 4.76 million last year).
