What Everdisplay Optronics (Shanghai) does

Chinese maker of small and mid-size OLED display panels for smartphones and wearable devices.

Sells panels to phone and wearable brands, so factory utilisation and yield, the share of panels that pass quality checks, drive results, and the heavy depreciation on its costly fab lines weighs on earnings. It supplies smaller volumes than the largest Korean and Chinese OLED makers.

In one line: China's Samsung Display for small OLED panels.
