OLED smartphone penetration (L) OLED TV penetration (R)

(%) (%)

• The increase in LCD panel prices is intensifying cost pressures for TV/monitor/smartphone manufacturers; this is leading to higher adoption of OLED panels.

• The current LCD up-cycle is leading to higher panel prices across TVs, notebooks, monitors, and smartphones (in contrast to the 2017 up-cycle, which was more limited in scope). As a result, we are seeing a rise in OLED penetration across all products.

(%)

• In 2H21, we expect LG Display’s (LGD) OP margin to surpass that of LG Electronics’ (LGE) home entertainment (HE) division.

• In fact, we see LGD’s OP margin rising to levels not seen since 2017 as a result of higher LCD prices and improving OLED margins.

• Meanwhile, as increased cost pressures should lead to a continued fall in demand (from TVs, smartphones, etc.), we forecast LCD prices to start falling in 3Q21 and a cycle of declining LCD profits to begin in 2022.

LCD profitability to decline, OLED profitability to improve in 2022

Source: Company data, Mirae Asset Securities Research

Price gap between LCD and rigid OLED has narrowed sharply

I. LCD-OLED price gap now minimal

• The price gap between rigid OLED and LTPS LCD panels (for notebooks, monitors, and smartphones) has contracted significantly. This should support an increase in rigid OLED penetration.

• Indeed, Samsung Display is raising its 2021 shipment target for laptop OLED from 4-5mn units to 6-7mn units.

• In 2H21-2022, we expect LCD demand to decline gradually and OLED demand to grow.

• Accordingly, we expect quarterly operating profit to start falling for LCD and rising for OLED from 3Q21.

Fast and decisive LCD shutdown strategy is needed

I. In need of a nimble strategy to stop LCD production

• Domestic panel makers need to decide whether to invest in converting LCD lines or building new OLED lines.

• Panel makers need to defend against the likely fall in LCD prices and at the same time focus on increasing OLED penetration.

• CSOT has announced a plan to invest in a Gen 8.5 LCD line (T9), which is scheduled to go online in 2023 with a capacity of 180,000 units/month.

• Recently, BOE raised W3.7tr in funding through a share sale to ramp up panel investments.

1) Price: CNY5.57 (3.6% discount to share price at time of issuance)

2) Total funding: CNY20.3bn (W3.7tr)

3) Purpose of funding:

- Investment in Chongqing display line (B12) and Gen 6 line

- Purchase of 24% stake in Wuhan BOE Optoelectronics Technology

- R&D project: 12” silicon wafers for OLED production

- Working capital

II. OLED shipments to expand meaningfully in 2H21

• We expect to see broader OLED adoption during the peak-demand season (Singles’ Day and Black Friday).

• We forecast global OLED shipments to jump 29% YoY in 2022, with demand starting to grow meaningfully in 2H21.

• With new flagship smartphone releases limited in 2H21, we expect to see robust demand for the new iPhone series.

• We project Apple’s flexible OLED panel demand to jump from 124mn units in 2020 to 164mn units in 2021 and 220mn units in 2022.

• Among global panel makers, we expect Samsung Display to enjoy the strongest profit growth next year, as it has the highest OLED exposure.

• Notably, depreciation of the A3 fab (W400bn annually per line) is coming to an end, after which profit expansion should accelerate meaningfully.

• With the end of the depreciation, the company should be able to cut selling prices to gain market share.

• Starting with the A4-2 line (30,000 sheets/month), investments are projected to resume gradually, including the construction of A5 in early 2022.

• OLED investments (both new/converted lines) by Korean panel makers are on track to meet the levels projected at the start of the year.

• Samsung Display: Gradual investments in A4-2 (30,000 sheets/month, back plate); LGD: E6-Ph3 (15,000 sheets/month, back plate)

• Chinese panel makers (CSOT, Visionox, etc.): Investments pushed back to 2022

• EverDisplay: Investments in the Gen 6 flexible OLED line (30,000 sheets/month) in 2H21

• We lower our estimate for 2021 panel investments from 105,000 sheets/month to 75,000 sheets/month in light of the delays in China.

Foldable OLED demand from IT devices is rising

IV. Investments in foldable OLED likely to resume

• If foldable smartphones continue to be well received by users, we will likely see steady upward adjustments to demand forecasts for foldable IT devices.

• Foldable device demand outlook (Counterpoint): 7.8mn units in 2021, 14.1mn in 2022, and 31.1mn in 2023

• Demand forecasts for 2023 and beyond could change if Apple joins the foldable race.

• Production of large-sized OLED panels requires larger capacity (than for existing products).

1) Pol-less/black PDL

V. Technological changes: Pol-less/black PDL

• Samsung Display applied pol-less technology (which it calls Eco2) to the Galaxy Z Fold 3.

• By removing the polarizer film from the top of the display, this new technology achieves: 1) up to a 33% improvement in brightness; 2) lower thickness; and 3) higher flexibility.

• In conventional panels, the polarizer is responsible for filtering unwanted light from the outside; in panels with a pol-less structure, a separator material called black pixel definition layer (PDL) performs this function.

• Among back-end processes, polarizer lamination is the most expensive. Reduction in spending per unit of capacity

Effects of polarizer removal:1) Improved brightness

(33%)2) Reduced thickness

2) Gen 8 oxide-based RGB technology

V. Technological changes: Gen 8 oxide-based RGB technology

• Increasing OLED demand from large IT devices (laptops and monitors) has prompted panel makers to revisit Gen 8 oxide-based RGB technology.

• Since the mid-2010s, Samsung Display has been developing a vertical RGB deposition-method evaporator in cooperation with Ulvac (Japan) to overcome the limitations of horizontal RGB deposition technology. In addition, the company is working with DNP (Japan) for fine metal mask (FMM).

• After testing the technology later this year, we believe the display maker will invest in a pilot line (for Gen 8 small/mid-sized OLED) in 1H22.

• For the A5 line, Gen 6 capex will likely be limited, while we see high visibility on Gen 8 oxide-based RGB and LTPS capex.

V. Technological changes: Tandem RGB

• We expect the adoption of OLED in iPads to start with a single-stack structure in 2023 and later move to a tandem-stack structure in 2024.

• The RGB tandem stack yields improved brightness and a longer life span.

• LGD has already applied this technology to automotive OLED, while Samsung Display is currently engaged in R&D.

• We expect demand for OLED organic materials to expand.

VI. Status check by segment

• Amid the OLED up-cycle, market forecasts for OLED organic materials continue to be upgraded.

• FMM RGB materials: Demand forecasts revised up 7% for self-emitting materials, 8% for commodity materials

• WOLED/QD-OLED materials: Demand forecasts revised up 7% for self-emitting materials, 7% for commodity materials

• We expect demand forecasts to continue to be adjusted upward, given increasing OLED adoption by IT devices and new capex by domestic panel makers.

2) DDI: Shortages to ease gradually starting in 4Q21

VI. Status check by segment

• Of all display components/materials, display drive-ICs (DDIs) have suffered the severest shortages over the past year.

• Following the price increases for LCD DDIs arising from sharp demand growth in 3Q20, rising OLED penetration has kept OLED DDI demand tight through 3Q21.

• We expect DDI shortages to ease in 4Q21-1Q22. Price increases unlikely to continue in 2022

• With device/panel makers coming under growing cost pressures, demand for TV monitors has slowed in some markets.
