SEOUL — South Korea's Samsung Electronics said Thursday its net profits had dropped 86.1 percent in the first quarter of 2023, blaming slowing consumer spending due to uncertainty over the global economy.

The company said in a statement that net profit dropped to 1.57 trillion won from 11.32 trillion won in the same period a year earlier, "as overall consumer spending slowed amid the uncertain global macroeconomic environment".
