SEOUL, Jan. 6 (Yonhap) -- LG Electronics Inc. said Friday that it is likely to post an operating loss in the fourth quarter of last year, indicating that its money-losing smartphone business appears to have failed to rebound.

Fourth-quarter sales are estimated at 14.7 trillion won, up 1.5 percent on year, LG said.
For all of 2016, LG said it expects to post an operating profit of 1.33 trillion won, up 12.2 percent on year, on sales of 55.3 trillion won, down 2 percent on year.
