Strong iPhone 6 sales lifted annual net profit at Pegatron Corp, the Taiwanese assembler of Apple's to a record high. Pegatron on Monday said 2014 net profit rose 53.4 percent from the previous year to T$14.66 billion (US$466.8 million). Apple sold more than expected iPhones over the year-end holiday season.

Asked about Pegatron's reliance on smartphones during a press briefing, Chief Executive Jason Cheng said his company was taking advantage of a good business opportunity, reports Reuters. He later added that "It's definitely not a good thing to be too concentrated on just a few clients. But you can't avoid the fact that mobile phones have been fast sellers. When good business comes your way, how can you not take it?"

We noted last month that Pegatron's Pegacasa Team will be introducing designer iPhone 6 cases this spring.
