Display OLED spending undeterred by coronavirus

Panel makers’ OLED spending: Nothing has changed

We expect flexible OLED spending by global panel makers to expand from 75,000

sheets/month in 2019 to 120,000 sheets/month in 2020 and 135,000 sheets/month in

2021. As a percentage of global display capex, we forecast LCD to decrease from 61%

in 2019 to 43% in 2020 and 29% in 2021, and OLED to increase from 39% in 2019 to

57% in 2020 and 71% in 2021.

This capex shift from LCD to OLED reflects the direction of demand. The expected

CAGR over the next three years is just 0.8% for LCD TV shipments vs. 20% for

small/mid-sized OLED panel shipments. For foldable devices, the three-year CAGR is

projected at 396%. If foldable laptops, such as Intel’s (INTC US/CP: US$51.66)

Horseshoe Bend, become commercialized, OLED panel demand forecasts could be

revised higher.

Chinese panel makers’ flexible OLED spending undeterred by coronavirus

Chinese panel suppliers, including BOE (000725 CH/CP: RMB4.62), CSOT (0334 HK/CP:

HK$0.485), and Visionox (002387 CH/CP: RMB12.45), are restarting their flexible OLED

spending, which was temporarily suspended in the wake of the COVID-19 outbreak.

Bidding for equipment resumed for BOE’s B12 line (Chongqing) on February 13th and

for CSOT’s T4 line and Visionox’s V3 line on February 6th (based on China Bidding). For

its V2 line (Gu'an), Visionox commenced spending (15,000 sheets/month) on March 4th,

starting with order placements for exposure and sputtering equipment. The monthly

number of new tenders—42 in January, 39 in February, and 37 in March (as of March

9th)—has been recovering. Overall, Chinese panel makers are continuing their

investments regardless of the COVID-19 outbreak.

For Samsung Display’s A5 capex, direction is more important than timing; Cost reduction is critical

We believe Samsung Display will begin capex for its A5 fab (small/mid-sized OLED) this

year in order to meet demand in 2022. Assuming global foldable device unit sales in

2022 at 44mn and Samsung Display’s market share at 80%, we estimate the company

needs capacity of around 45,000 sheets/month.

But what’s more important than the timing or size of the A5 capex is its direction. The

key will be reducing costs. We expect the A5 fab to come online in 2022, which is when

the useful life of a competitor’s initial line is set to end. Depreciation expenses will

gradually start to end in 2022 at LG Display (LGD; 034220 KS/Buy/TP: W20,000/CP:

W12,050) and in 2024 at Chinese companies (including BOE). In order for the A5 fab to

gain competitiveness over competing fabs, cost reduction through process

improvement will be critical.

To make A5 more cost competitive than existing fabs, we believe Samsung Display will

1) increase spending on Y-OCTA (front-end process), 2) introduce inkjet OCR lamination

(back-end process), and 3) consider investments in Gen 7 or later.

Korean OLED equipment/material stocks look reasonable in terms of both earnings and multiples

Korean OLED equipment stocks are trading at a 44% discount to global peers on a P/E

basis. This is mainly because their 2020 earnings estimates have been revised up

ahead of those of global peers due to the Korean stock market’s unique “order

disclosure” requirement. Given Chinese companies’ recent order placement schedule,

we think it is highly likely global OLED equipment makers’ earnings estimates will also

be revised up after 1Q20. If so, we think global investors will begin to take a greater

interest in Korean OLED equipment names.

Panel makers’ OLED spending: Nothing has changed

Rapid capex shift (LCD ���� OLED) is ongoing globally

We expect flexible OLED spending by global panel makers to expand from 75,000

sheets/month in 2019 to 120,000 sheets/month in 2020 and 135,000 sheets/month in 2021.

Amid the sluggish LCD market, Chinese panel makers are expected to gradually scale back

their LCD investments. As a percentage of global display capex, we forecast LCD to decrease

from 61% in 2019 to 43% in 2020 and 29% in 2021, and OLED to increase from 39% in 2019

to 57% in 2020 and 71% in 2021.

This capex shift from LCD to OLED reflects the direction of demand. The expected CAGR

over the next three years is just 0.8% for LCD TV shipments vs. 20% for small/mid-sized

OLED panel shipments. For foldable devices, the three-year CAGR is projected at 396%. If

foldable laptops, such as Intel’s Horseshoe Bend, become commercialized, OLED panel

demand forecasts could be revised higher.

Global flexible OLED investments to exceed levels seen during 2016-18

upcycle

We expect global panel makers to continue to expand their flexible OLED investments, given

the strong demand outlook. Top-tier players like Samsung Display are expected to expand

capex gradually while aiming to reduce costs and improve panel form factor. Second-tier

(including Chinese) panel makers are also likely to expand capex, with an eye toward

attracting new customers (market share gains) and ending the depreciation of existing lines

earlier than planned.

We expect 6G flexible OLED investments by global panel makers to increase from 75,000

sheets/month in 2019 to 120,000 sheets/month in 2020 and 135,000 sheets/month in 2021.

Our cumulative 2019-21 estimate (330,000 sheets/month) exceeds the level seen during the

2016-18 flexible OLED capex cycle (315,000 sheets/month).

Global panel suppliers’ new capex since 2H19 has totaled around 135,000 sheets/month

(nine lines). This includes 15,000 sheets/month from Tianma (00050 CH/CP: RMB15.61;

Wuhan), 30,000 sheets/month from Visionox (V3), 30,000 sheets/month from CSOT (T4),

45,000 sheets/month from BOE (B12), and 15,000 sheets/month from GVO (V2). We expect

the following capex (13 lines; 195,000 sheets/month) to begin within the next year: 1) 45,000

sheets/month from Samsung Display (A5); 2) 15,000 sheets/month from BOE (B12); 3)

45,000 sheets/month from Visionox (V3 and V4); 4) 45,000 sheets/month from CSOT (T5);

and 5) 45,000 sheets/month from Tianma (Xiamen).

Based only on customer capex for which order placements have already begun (135,000

sheets/month), we forecast OLED equipment suppliers’ 2020 revenue to match the levels

seen during Samsung Display’s 2016-17 A3 (105,000 sheets/month) and A4 (30,000

sheets/month) capex cycle. If additional capex is confirmed, our revenue projections for

OLED equipment suppliers could be revised higher.

Chinese panel makers’ flexible OLED spending undeterred by coronavirus

Bidding for equipment resumes; OLED investments continue

Chinese panel suppliers, including BOE, CSOT, and Visionox, are restarting their flexible

OLED spending, which was temporarily suspended in the wake of the COVID-19 outbreak.

Bidding for equipment resumed for BOE’s B12 line (Chongqing) on February 13th and for

CSOT’s T4 line and Visionox’s V3 line on February 6th (based on China Bidding). For its V2 line

(Gu'an), Visionox commenced spending (15,000 sheets/month) on March 4th, starting with

order placements for exposure and sputtering equipment. The monthly number of new

tenders—42 in January, 39 in February, and 37 in March (as of March 9th)—has been

recovering. Overall, Chinese panel makers are continuing their investments regardless of

the coronavirus outbreak.

We expect the following flexible OLED capacity to be added by major Chinese panel makers

over the next year: 1) 45,000 sheets/month from Tianma (Xiamen); 2) 45,000 sheets/month

from Visionox (30,000 sheets/month for V3 and 15,000 sheets/month for V5); 3) 45,000

sheets/month from CSOT (T5); and 4) 15,000 sheets/month from BOE (B15). Going forward,

global panel suppliers are forecast to aggressively expand capex to meet growing flexible

OLED demand and gain market share.

Samsung Display’s A5 capex: Direction is more important than timing

For Samsung Display’s A5 capex, direction is more important than timing

and scale

We believe Samsung Display will begin capex for its A5 fab (small/mid-sized OLED) this year

in order to meet demand in 2022. Assuming global foldable device unit sales in 2022 at

44mn and Samsung Display’s market share at 80%, we estimate the firm needs capacity of

around 45,000 sheets/month.

But what’s more important than the timing or size of the A5 capex is its direction. The key

will be reducing costs. We expect the A5 fab to come online in 2022, when the useful life of a

competitor’s initial line is set to end. Depreciation of A5 lines will end in 2022 for LGD and in

2024 for Chinese companies (including BOE). In order for the A5 fab to gain competitiveness

over competing fabs, cost reduction through process improvement will be critical.

To make A5 more cost competitive than existing fabs, we believe Samsung Display will 1)

increase spending on Y-OCTA (front-end process), 2) introduce inkjet OCR lamination (back-

end process), and 3) consider investments in Gen 7 or later.

With Apple’s (APPL US/CP: US$275.43) introduction of Y-OCTA panels in 2020, we believe

demand from other device/set makers will continue to grow. The application of Y-OCTA

technology by the world’s no. 1 device maker (Apple) and no. 1 OLED panel maker (Samsung

Display) should serve as an important catalyst for demand. As demand increases, we expect

global OLED panel producers to continue to convert to TOE capacity and make related

investments. Global OLED makers’ TOE capacities are shown in <Figure 20>.

Samsung Display currently has four Y-OCTA production lines (A3 phase 1 and phase 2 lines

and A4 phase 1 and phase 2 lines; 60,000 sheets/month) and is converting three (45,000

sheets/month) of its Apple-dedicated A3 lines (105,000 sheets/month) to Y-OCTA in order to

meet Apple’s 2020 Y-OCTA panel demand. We believe Y-OCTA will be a critical part of the

company’s future capex, as well.

LGD is also converting to TOE capacity to fulfill Apple’s 2021 demand. We expect LGD to

switch around 30,000 sheets/month of its E6 line capacity to TOE by 1H21. We also project a

total of 60,000 sheets/month of capacity (30,000 sheets/month each at B7 and B11) at BOE

and 15,000 sheets/month of capacity (T4 phase 2) at CSOT to be converted to TOE. New

lines, such as CSOT’s T4, Visionox’s V3, and Tianma’s Wuhan line, are being built as TOE

capacity from the beginning.

2) Introduction of inkjet OCR lamination (back-end process)

Among back-end processes, we see ample room for cost savings in lamination. During

lamination, multiple films are pasted on panels that have gone through the front-end

processes. Films can be pasted using either optically clear adhesive (OCA; an adhesive film)

or optically clear resin (OCR); a liquid). For OCR, there are two types of processes depending

on the dispensing method: slot die and inkjet. Currently, most global flexible OLED lines,

including Samsung Display’s, adopt OCA lamination, while rigid OLED and LCD lines

generally apply slot-die OCR lamination.

Compared to OCR, OCA is superior in terms of design (no possibility of shedding) and

production yield (shorter process time, etc.) thanks to its film-type structure, but is less cost

competitive due to its higher price. Samsung Display’s annual OCA purchases are estimated

at more than W200bn. And because foldable devices have panels requiring more films than

those of conventional smartphone models, the company’s OCA purchase needs could

increase over the medium/long term in line with foldable demand growth.

As such, we expect Samsung Display to begin to apply inkjet OCR lamination. This process

can reduce costs relative to OCA, and, unlike slot-die OCR lamination (used for rigid panel

production), it can facilitate various panel designs. Since 2019, we think the company has

been developing inkjet-OCR-related equipment/materials in cooperation with 1) STI (039440

KQ/CP: W14,050) and a Japanese maker (inkjet system for OCR dispensing), as well as with 2)

YEST (122640 KQ/CP: W6,880) and Jastech (090470 KQ/CP: W9,420; OCR bonder).

Recently, Samsung Display appears to have initiated back-end process investments for

tablet and auto displays at its Tianjin and Dongguan lines in China. We believe the Tianjin

and Dongguan lines will be the company’s first mass production lines to introduce inkjet

OCR lamination equipment.

For OCR bonders, Toptec (108230 KQ/CP: W9,990), which was the primary OCR bonder

supplier for the A3 fab, is now out of the picture due to a technology leak scandal.

Accordingly, we recommend keeping an eye on OCR bonder makers with the potential to

secure supply contracts from Samsung.

3) Need to consider investments in 7G+

For its flexible OLED panel production, we expect Samsung Display to consider investments

in 7G+. While this would entail many technological challenges, migrating to next-generation

displays would be a sure way to strengthen cost competitiveness.

Notably, 7G mother glass is 58% larger than 6G mother glass (with 30% greater width and

22% greater length), and one 7G mother glass yields 59% more panels than the previous

generation (based on 6” smartphone panels). 7G thus represents a meaningful cost-saving

opportunity. 7G investments would also boost cost efficiency by allowing Samsung Display

to meet increased customer demand with smaller production capacity.

More importantly, making investments in 7G would put Samsung Display in a better

position to satisfy demand for 10”-or-larger foldable IT devices, which are set to grow over

the medium and long term. 7G is better suited for larger displays, given that the cutting

efficiency (panel surface area/mother glass size) declines as the size of panels cut from a

mother glass increases. Based on 6G mother glass, the cutting efficiency is in the 94-96%

range for 5.5”-8.0” panels but declines to 89-92% for 11”-or-larger panels. Accordingly, we

think investments in 7G+ are needed to meet the likely increase in demand for 10”-or-larger

foldable devices over the medium and long term.

Investment criteria for OLED equipment/ materials stocks

OLED equipment: Value creation for customers

In terms of our investment criteria for OLED equipment companies, we look for the ability to

create added value for customers through distinctive form factors/designs and lower costs.

In other words, a company deserves a high valuation if its equipment enables customers to

produce cutting-edge flexible displays in a cost-efficient way.

In 2015, Samsung Display introduced Y-OCTA technology to its A3 fab ahead of its rivals,

allowing flexible panels to be produced more cheaply (cutting production costs by more

than 15%). With Apple’s introduction of Y-OCTA panels in 2020, Chinese panel makers and

LGD have also begun to invest in TOE technology from 2H19.

For 2020, we expect Y-OCTA equipment suppliers’ revenue growth to outpace the peer

average. It is worth noting that even during Samsung Display’s capital spending hiatus in

2018-19, Y-OCTA equipment suppliers continued to receive orders related to the conversion

of its A3 lines (phase 1 and phase 2) to Y-OCTA, along with orders from other panel makers.

And considering that seven other A3 lines (phase 3 through phase 9; total capacity of

105,000 sheets/month) did not adopt Y-OCTA technology, we expect Samsung Display to

invest in such technology for its A5 lines, benefiting related equipment makers such as ICD

(040910 KQ/TP: W27,000; dry etchers).

As for the back-end process, inkjet OCR lamination equipment deserves attention.

Considering that Samsung Display’s annual spending on OCA films amounts to W200bn, we

expect the firm to gradually shift to inkjet OCR lamination.

OLED materials: Companies offering new products

In the OLED materials segment, we recommend seeking out companies with above-market

growth potential. (The overall OLED panel market is projected to expand 28% YoY in 2020.)

The key to achieving such growth, in our view, is the ability to offer competitive new

products. This is a more important factor than the acquisition of new customers, given that,

in a basically oversupplied OLED market, any utilization increase at one customer should

lead to lower utilization at rivals.

Among OLED materials/parts companies, we believe SKC Kolon PI and Duksan Neolux fit our

criteria.

For SKC Kolon PI, we see several new products that can support revenue growth, including:

1) modified PI (MPI) materials for 5G smartphones; 2) PI base films for foldable devices; and

3) PI films for COF (related to import substitution). For 2020, we forecast SKC Kolon PI’s

revenue and operating profit to grow 33% and 123% YoY, respectively.

For Duksan Neolux, we expect green prime materials (used in the Galaxy S20 and foldable

devices) to contribute to revenue in 2020. It is notable that the firm supplies the same

materials set to both Samsung and Apple, and it appears poised to supply green prime

materials for new iPhone models in 2H20. For 2020, we forecast Duksan Neolux’s revenue

and operating profit to grow 31% and 63% YoY, respectively.

Global peer valuations

Korean OLED equipment and materials companies are undervalued relative to global peers.

Korean OLED equipment stocks are trading at a 2020F P/E of 9x (vs. global peer average of

16x). This is mainly because their 2020 earnings estimates have been revised up ahead of

those of global peers due to the Korean stock market’s unique “order disclosure”

requirement. Given Chinese companies’ recent order placement schedule, we think it is

highly likely global OLED equipment makers’ earnings estimates will also be revised up after

1Q20. If so, we think global investors will begin to take a greater interest in Korean OLED

equipment names.

Valuations of OLED materials suppliers vary by product type. On a P/E basis, Duksan Neolux

(OLED organic materials) is trading at a 41% discount to UDC (OLED US/CP: US$147.90), a

US-based OLED organic materials company. SKC Kolon PI (PI films) is trading at a 41%

discount to Taimide Tech (3645 TT/CP: NT$35,50), a Taiwanese PI film supplier, and a 43-51%

discount to key customers Tanyuan (603133 CH/CP: RMB21.20) and Jones Tech (300684

CH/CP: RMB34.91), China-based heat-resistant sheet makers.

Maintain TP of W42,000; A key beneficiary of the Chinese capex cycle

We maintain our target price of W42,000 on AP Systems. While 2019 was a period of

multiple expansion driven by expectations of customer capex, we believe earnings

growth will come into focus in 2020. Chinese OLED makers’ new capex since 2H19 has

totaled 135,000 sheets/month—equivalent to the size of Samsung Display’s 2016-17 A3

(105,000 sheets/month) and A4 (30,000 sheets/month) capex cycle.

We think parts revenue also merits attention. While Chinese OLED utilization has been

rising, we believe production yields still remain low. Flexible OLED shipment targets for

2020 appear aggressive, however, at 8mn units for BOE, 1.5mn units for Visionox, and

0.6mn units for Tianma. Therefore, Chinese customers’ demand for materials and

consumable parts should inevitably grow. We forecast AP Systems’ parts revenue to rise

from W210bn in 2019 to W280bn in 2020.

While there have been worries about potential capex delays due to the coronavirus

outbreak, new bid invitations posted on China Bidding suggest Chinese panel makers’

spending is continuing despite the outbreak. For materials, we do see risks to full-year

earnings due to lower customer plant utilization. But for equipment, we believe risks to

full-year earnings are limited, as long as customer capex continues.

Chinese capex already matches A3+A4 cycle

Chinese companies’ new capex since 2H19 has totaled around 135,000 sheets/month

(nine lines). This includes 15,000 sheets/month from Tianma (Wuhan), 30,000

sheets/month from Visionox (V3), 30,000 sheets/month from CSOT (T4), 45,000

sheets/month from BOE (B12), and 15,000 sheets/month from Visionox (V2). The total

figure is equivalent to the size of Samsung Display’s 2016-17 A3 and A4 capex cycle.

Based only on customer capex for which order placements have already begun, we

forecast AP Systems’ 2020 revenue and operating profit to grow to W691bn (+50% YoY)

and W59.2bn (+108% YoY), respectively.

2021 revenue to reach W900bn, based on just 50% of expected customer capex

Looking further ahead to 2021, we expect revenue to reach W898bn (+30% YoY). Our

forecast reflects only 50% of the customer capex expected to begin within the next year.

We expect the following capex to begin within the next year (through 1H21): 1) 45,000

sheets/month from Visionox (V3 and V4); 2) 45,000 sheets/month from Tianma (Xiamen);

3) 15,000 sheets/month from BOE (B15); 4) 45,000 sheets/month from Samsung Display;

and 5) 45,000 sheets/month from CSOT (T5).

Maintain TP of W27,000; Trading at 2020F P/E of 6.0x

We maintain our target price of W27,000 on ICD. We forecast ICD’s 2020 revenue to grow

185% YoY—faster than the average growth consensus for global peers (+42%)—mainly

because global OLED spending is moving toward TOE (Y-OCTA) technology. Customers’

continuous conversion to TOE technology has allowed ICD to steadily grab orders, even

during the capex void in 2018-19. At present, ICD is trading at a 2020F P/E of 6.0x, a

steep discount to global peers.

The stock’s recent correction has been triggered by worries about potential cancellations

or delays in Chinese capex due to the COVID-19 outbreak. But as we mentioned earlier in

our report, Chinese OLED makers have continued their spending in February-March.

Visionox has even started capex for its V2 line (bidding for exposure and sputtering

equipment began in early March).

Unlike materials suppliers, we believe equipment makers will deliver robust full-year

earnings regardless of the COVID-19 outbreak. While equipment delivery may be pushed

back by a quarter, this is unlikely to have a significant impact on full-year earnings.

Furthermore, the won’s recent depreciation against the dollar should support strong

earnings.

Likely to continue to benefit from ongoing TOE spending

With Apple’s introduction of Y-OCTA panels in 2020, we believe demand from other

device makers will continue to grow. The application of Y-OCTA technology by the world’s

no. 1 device maker (Apple) and no. 1 OLED panel maker (Samsung Display) should serve

as an important catalyst for demand. As demand increases, we expect global OLED panel

producers to continue to convert to TOE capacity and make related investments.

Samsung Display currently has four Y-OCTA production lines (A3 phase 1 and phase 2

lines and A4 phase 1 and phase 2; 60,000 sheets/month) and is converting three (45,000

sheets/month) of its Apple-dedicated A3 lines (105,000 sheets/month) to Y-OCTA in order

to meet Apple’s 2020 Y-OCTA panel demand. We believe Y-OCTA will be a critical part of

the company’s future capex, as well.

LGD is also converting to TOE capacity to fulfill Apple’s 2021 demand. We expect LGD to

switch around 30,000 sheets/month of its E6 line capacity to TOE by 1H21. We also

project a total of 60,000 sheets/month of capacity (30,000 sheets/month each at B7 and

B11) at BOE and 15,000 sheets/month of capacity (T4 phase 2) at CSOT to be converted

to TOE. New lines, such as CSOT’s T4, Visionox’s V3, and Tianma’s Wuhan line, are being

built as TOE capacity from the beginning.

Maintain TP of W55,000; Attractive valuation

We maintain our Buy rating on SKC Kolon PI with a target price of W55,000. In 2020-21,

we expect the company’s growth to outstrip the global OLED market’s shipment growth

(estimated at +28% YoY in 2020), supported by a strong product lineup. For 2020, we

forecast revenue and operating profit to surge 33% and 123% YoY, respectively.

Shares of SKC Kolon PI have recently pulled back on COVID-19 fears. Given the firm’s

relatively high exposure to China, 1Q20 shipments are indeed likely to be weaker than

previously expected. Nevertheless, we think profits will be relatively resilient thanks to

declining costs (PMDA prices). We lower our 1Q20 operating profit estimate by 9.7% to

W13bn (+313% YoY).

The stock is currently trading at a historically low 2020F P/E of 17.8x. The current

valuation is also attractive relative to those of rivals and companies in peer industries.

Taiwanese rival Taimide Tech is trading at a 2020F P/E of 30x (Bloomberg), and heat-

resistant sheet customers Jones Tech and Tanyuan are trading at 36x and 31x,

respectively.

We also think the recent share transfer to a local private equity fund is positive in terms

of: 1) maintaining a high payout ratio from 2020 (dividend yield estimated at 4.5%,

assuming 80% of earnings are paid out as dividends); and 2) driving further earnings

growth through a potential increase in cost efficiency.

A must-have stock for 2020; Solid revenue streams

1) We forecast revenue from foldable display-use base films to reach W13bn in 2020.

Materials demand is likely to increase due to still-low production yields at customers. In

2H20 and beyond, the firm is expected to benefit from foldable volume growth at

another customer.

2) MPI materials for 5G smartphones are also likely to generate solid revenue in 2020

(our forecast: W18bn), mainly driven by increased sales to Chinese customers. In 2H20,

we expect more Chinese makers to adopt MPI films for their 5G smartphones, laying the

foundation for medium/long-term growth.

3) From 2H20, COF/battery-use PI films should meaningfully contribute to earnings. We

forecast annual revenue of W10bn for COF-use PI films and W40bn for battery-use PI films.

For these new items, we foresee stronger revenue growth in 2021 than in 2020. As the

world’s largest PI film producer in terms of production capacity and productivity, we

believe SKC Kolon PI is able to cut prices (to limit the entry of latecomers) and deliver

above-market revenue growth.

The company’s new products have significantly higher ASPs than existing products and

thus are better able to drive profits. Judging by their solid initial sales performance, we

think the company has secured medium- to long-term growth engines.
