Automotive is another opportunity for panel makers; the demand from the non-premium automotive segment will increase for LCD panels, while the demand for flexible panels will increase from the premium segment. OLED is the new trend in displays, thanks to the increasing demand from smartphone and smart wearable vendors; however, the ASP of OLED panels is declining rapidly despite the fact that only South Korean players are mass-producing OLED panels. Sustaining significant profit margin will be a huge challenge for panel makers when various players such as BOE, Tianma, Truly, CSOT, and JOLED enter the market. Increased competition between the players is expected to further decrease the ASP and shrink profit margins. Worldwide demand for OLED panels is projected to reach $48.8 billion by 2023, growing at a CAGR of 15.2% between 2017 and 2023, according to Rajeev Rajput – Senior Research Analyst at MarketsandMarkets.
