Global and China FPCB (Flexible Printed Circuit Board) Industry Report, 2014-2015
M2 - Mon Mar 23, 10:56AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/wkplms/global_and_china) has announced the addition of the "Global and China FPCB (Flexible Printed Circuit Board) Industry Report, 2014-2015 " report to their offering. 2014 was a bumper year for most FPCB companies, and the output value of the entire PCB industry reached USD12.5 billion, rising by 10.5% from the previous year. In 2015, the prices of bulk commodities (particularly the copper price) plummet, which will greatly reduce the raw material costs of PCB companies and help raise their profitability. Larger screen size of mobile phone requires larger FPCB. The FPCB market is expected to grow 8.6% in 2015 as the smartphone market can not continue its rapid growth and the tablet PC is in recession. In 2014, the euro, the NTD and the yen significantly devalued, while the South Korean won appreciated, which not only hit a serious blow to the competitiveness of South Korean FPCB enterprises, but minified the profit of South Korean PCB enterprises. The revenue and profit margin of all South Korean PCB companies declined, for example, Flexcom's revenue slumped by more than 50%, the giant Interflex's revenue dropped 33% and its operating margin turned to be the negative 14.2%, which showed the power of the currency war. Benefiting from the currency depreciation, Taiwanese and European companies witnessed soaring profit margins. More than half of Japanese companies did not benefit from the depreciation of the yen because they set up production bases overseas, but still better than South Korean companies. In the downstream market, the biggest change in 2014 lied in: HDD saw the first growth after three consecutive years of decline. The global HDD shipment amounted to 564 million units, an increase of 2.4% from 2013. Previously, insiders were optimistic about the prospect of SSD instead of HDD; but actually, the SSD price remained high, the tablet PC market decayed, while the laptop computer market recovered to growth after three consecutive years of downturn. At the same time, the development of SSD did not restrict HDD; the new network economy and the big data era stimulated the demand for servers and HDD. HDD will still be the mainstream in the next three to five years, and the HDD shipment is expected to reach 621 million units in 2019. Japanese companies focusing on HDD-use FPCB performed exceedingly well in 2014, for example, the leader NOK (Mektron) achieved the revenue growth rate of 28% and the operating margin of 8.7% (rising from the negative 10.6%), Nitto's revenue surged by 31%. The competitiveness of South Korean and American companies weakened significantly. The strong USD made MFLEX's revenue fall dramatically. The depreciation of NTD facilitated Taiwanese companies to grow by leaps and bounds; meanwhile, Apple greatly reduced orders from South Korean companies, while placed more orders with Japanese and Taiwanese companies in accordance with the principle of the nearest supply. The revenue of ZDT under Foxconn soared 60% in 2014. Key Topics Covered: 1 Overview of FPCB 2 FPCB Market 3 FPCB Industry 4 FPCB Companies 5.

OLED Display Forecast 2015-2025: The Rise of Plastic and Flexible Displays - AMOLED displays will rise to $16bn by 2020
M2 - Mon Mar 02, 4:27AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/fjsmtq/oled_display) has announced the addition of the "OLED Display Forecast 2015-2025: the Rise of Plastic and Flexible Displays" report to their offering. The next evolution is plastic and flexible displays. It is expected the first flagship phone with a flexible display to ship in 2017. Based on this scenario, the market for plastic and flexible AMOLED displays will rise to $16bn by 2020. OLED displays are thinner, lighter, and offer better color performances compared to backlit liquid crystal displays (LCD). OLED displays are already mass produced for mobile phones and OLEDs will continue gaining market share against LCD technology. The rise of plastic and flexible displays will be accompanied by a shift from glass substrates to plastic substrates such as polyimide. However, glass-based displays will remain an important technology, especially in TV applications where scale-up and cost reduction are still big challenges. Flat and curved OLED TVs were recently launched by Samsung and LG to critical acclaim. However, manufacturers are hedging their bets by investing in LCD backlights enhanced with quantum dots. These so-called ""quantum dot LCD"" TVs will be positioned as a cheaper upgrade from existing sets. Nevertheless, the market for OLED TV panels will experience steady growth over the next decade, with a projected 25% CAGR.

M2 - Tue Dec 16, 9:37AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/lwz4rm/global_oil) has announced the addition of the "Global Oil Country Tabular Goods (OCTG) Market 2015-2019" report to their offering. OCTG is a set of equipment used in the drilling and extraction of on-shore and off-shore oil and gas. OCTG consists of drilling pipes, casing pipes, tubing pipes, and other line pipes used in the production and transportation of oil from wells to refineries. Casing pipes are placed at a wellhead to extract oil during the drilling process. Tubing pipes are inserted in the well after the completion of the drilling process and are used to transport oil and gas from wellbore to the surface. The diameter of a wellbore pipe decreases as it reaches the oil beds. One major trend in the market is increased investment in unconventional oil and gas resources. Many vendors and governments are investing in unconventional oil and gas resources to increase their production to meet growing energy demands. According to the report, one of the major drivers in this market is the increase in oil and gas exploration because of growing energy demand worldwide. Increased onshore and offshore exploration and production and rising numbers of onshore and offshore wells have raised OCTG demand. Further, the report states that the lack of a skilled workforce is one of the major challenges confronting the market. OCTG require highly skilled labor and expertise for wellbore drilling, production, and operational setup. Regional and local vendors find it difficult to provide the required service within the specified time while maintaining minimal quality standards.

Global and Chinese FPCB (Flexible Printed Circuit Board) Industry Report, 2014
M2 - Mon Nov 24, 4:01AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/4wn44k/global_and) has announced the addition of the "Global and Chinese FPCB (Flexible Printed Circuit Board) Industry Report, 2014" report to their offering. In 2013, FPCB industry enjoyed a high-speed growth with the market size approximating USD12.03 billion, up 16.2% from the level in 2012. The South Korean vendors developed rapidly and were excessively upbeat about the industry's outlook, aggressively expanding capacity starting from the very beginning of 2012. As a result, most of new capacity was available in Q2 2013. However, the FPCB companies in South Korea without diversified customers, were heavily dependent on the key accounts such as Samsung and LG, thus making them less competitive during negotiations. Therefore, these vendors cut the prices steeply in Q4 2013, sending them into price war. In 2014, price decline continued to deteriorate, which led to a sharp fall in revenue of South Korean vendors. The implications of high-speed capacity expansion are high fixed costs, which would thus result in a plunge in profit margin. It is projected that the revenue of INTERFLEX, a leading South Korean FPCB company, would tumble by 50%, and its operating margin would record a 27% loss in 2014 in contrast to no-profit-no-loss in 2013. Additionally, affected by the order shift of Apple, the company has hardly received any orders from Apple in 2014.
