SEOUL (Reuters) -- Samsung Electronics reported a likely 96% plunge in second-quarter operating profit on Friday, largely in line with forecasts, as an ongoing chip glut drives large losses in the tech giant's key business despite a supply cut.

The world's largest memory chip and smartphone maker estimated its operating profit fell to 600 billion won ($458 million) in the April-June quarter, from 14.1 trillion won a year earlier, in a short preliminary earnings statement.

The profit was largely in line with a forecast of 555 billion won that was weighted toward forecasts from analysts who are more consistently accurate.

Revenue likely fell 22% from the same period a year earlier to 60 trillion won, Samsung said in the statement. The tech giant is due to release detailed earnings later this month.
