Q121 Display Revenue Forecast To Reach $27B Up 53% Y/Y But Down 11% From Q420’s Record $30.5B
Prices are up, demand is up from WFH/LFH and rebounding economies. Operating margins are expected to improve from -4% a year ago to a much healthier 11% in Q1’21. Net margins are expected to improve from -2% to +7%. DSCC’s Quarterly Display Supply Chain Financial Health Report goes back to Q1’13 and double-digit operating margins have only been realized in four of the last 32 quarters. The quarter with the highest operating margins was in Q1’17 at 13%. DSCC says that 13% OPMs can be eclipsed in the next couple of quarters as prices continue to rise helped by rising demand.
