Uni Shows Good Revenue Performance in Traditional Slack Season

Taiwan LED package manufacturer Unity Opto Technology (Uni) November consolidated revenue reached NT $530 million (US $18 million), a 27.93 percent slide from last November. However, revenue for November remained consistent with last month showing unusually good performance for a typically slack season. 


Increased order demands from the North American lighting market and temporary hold on inventory adjustments for TV clients have allowed orders to gradually rebound in 3Q, according to Uni. New client preorders for mobile communication application products will begin in 4Q.


The company provided clients with increased energy efficient and high CRI LED package solutions, as well as slenderized backlight design products in 4Q. Optimized stipulations for price/performance ratio bring opportunities for the company to increase backlight product market share. With Europe and U.S. providing subsidiaries for energy saving products and phasing out incandescent bulbs, order volume from clients in 4Q dramatically increased causing single quarter revenue for lighting products to make up over 25 percent.


Bulb prices are hoped to drop further in 2014. Rise in energy resource prices and phase-out of incandescent lighting by many countries that have already begun gradually banning 40W and 60W bulbs is anticipated to help lower prices. Bulbs in 4Q have already reached a pricing sweet spot, dropping to US $10 and below.


Uni has had a long standing in European and U.S. market channels. The company is anticipated to be a huge beneficiary from the LED bulb and outdoor lighting market following the exponential increase in penetration rates for indoor lighting next year.
In order to accommodate the large volume of demands from Europe and U.S. lighting product lines in 2014, the company has already reconfigured their factory which will be completed by the end of this year. Lighting production capacity will be doubles in 1Q14.
