Lenovo Group announced record quarterly results, with historic highs for both profit and revenue according to a company release on Wednesday.

Its group revenue continued strong growth, hitting a record $20.1 billion — an increase of 17 percent year-on-year.

Net income grew at a rate of over 50 percent for the sixth consecutive quarter, with the third quarter growing 62 percent year-on-year to a record $640 million.
