On The Rebound? It's been a challenging time at @Lenovo on a number of fronts, but the most recent quarter offered signs that the company is starting to bounce back. Lenovo reported what it termed "solid" results for its fiscal 2018 second quarter, ended Sept. 30, with major gains over its lackluster fiscal first quarter.

Lenovo has been hit hard by increases in memory and component costs, and controversial recent moves have included a reduction in back-end rebate payments. What follows are five key things to know about Lenovo's second-quarter results.
