The judge of US District Court, Lucy Koh has ruled out that Samsung will have to unveil the specific device sales data for the numbers of its gadgets and denied that Korean company cannot keep that data secret. Samsung was trying to not to share this sale information but they have to as Apple has already announced the sales of $1.05 billion and they have keep on insisting to do follow up for the damages they have encountered due to the sales of Galaxy devices. Even their petition to ban Samsung Galaxy in US was denied in the jury of August 24th, 2012.Both of these companies have tried their best to not to reveal their sales and other internal business information, but Koh is sure about his decision and he has consistently denied these requested. He firmly believes that lacking in any information would become compelling reason in the case, according to a report shared by Bloomberg. Koh has allotted grant to Samsung that they can delay in publishing their sales per unit information and profitability figures for the handsets of company, however the appeal of Korean electronics giant is still pending.
Samsung was hoping that they could get permission on not sharing sales figure, but Koh has totally denied their request. This means that Samsung has to share its sales figure once again, as they have done in August for its 24 devices including Nexus S 4G and Galaxy SII, for the year 2010 to 2012.
For any company, these sales figures are entirely crucial and by opening it in front of the world will show their numbers behind curtain which will be quite interesting for the industry watchers. It will definitely reveal that how Samsung is growing in the US market.
