Arima Communications has landed smartphone ODM orders with shipments to begin at the end of 2011, and is expected to ship 5-6 million units, accounting for 40-50% of total revenues in 2012, according to handset component makers.

Arima has obtained ODM orders for three smartphones based on Qualcomm platforms from a Japan-based vendor and will start shipments at the end of 2011, the sources indicated. In addition, Arima has landed orders for five models based on MediaTek and ST-Ericsson platforms from Motorola Mobility, with shipments to begin in the second quarter of 2012, the sources pointed out. In addition to the two clients, Arima is competing for ODM orders from Sony Ericsson, LG Electronics and other vendors.

Thus, Arima will ship an estimated 5-6 million smartphones in 2012, with the proportion of its total shipments of handsets to climb from less than 1% in 2011 to 40-50%, the sources said. In addition to smartphones, Arima is expected to ship 16-17 million feature phones in 2012, the sources noted.

With shipments falling to 1.9 million handsets in October, Arima will see its fourth-quarter handset shipments decrease 30% sequentially to 4.7 million units, the sources indicated.
