Issue 62, January 29th, 2007
USA/EUROPE: Despite soaring sales of larger-screen sets, rapid price declines will cause the Liquid Crystal Display Television (LCD TV) market to undergo a deceleration in 2007 compared to the red-hot year in 2006, although growth will continue at a prodigious rate, iSuppli predicts. Global LCD TV shipments will rise to 62.5m units in 2007, up 57 per cent from 39.7m in 2006. This is down from 95 per cent growth in 2006. This slowdown reflects the large volume of LCD TV shipments, which makes it difficult to maintain such dramatic growth on an annual basis. The slowdown in 2007 will be more pronounced in terms of revenue, says iSuppli. Worldwide LCD TV factory revenue will rise by 20 per cent in 2007, expanding to $53.5bn, up from $44.7bn in 2006. This represents a 56 percentage point decrease in growth compared to 2006, when LCDTV revenue increased by a whopping 76 percent.
