In the Internet of Things era, the display is everywhere. In response to the growing demand for flexible displays and large-scale ultra-high-definition displays, global semiconductor display giant BOE (BOE) has accelerated the deployment of related production lines.

On March 8, 2018, BOE Technology Group Co., Ltd. issued an announcement to invest in the construction of the 6th-generation flexible AMOLED production line in Chongqing and the construction of the 10.5th thin-film transistor liquid crystal display device (TFT-LCD) production line in Wuhan.

According to the announcement, BOE (BOE) Chongqing's sixth-generation AMOLED (flexible) production line project has a total investment of 46.5 billion yuan. The total designed production capacity is 48,000 glass substrates per month, and the size is 1500mm × 1850mm. The products are mainly used in mobile phones and on-board products. Flexible display products such as foldable notebooks are expected to be put into production in 2020. This is the third production line for BOE (BOE) flexible display layout.

AMOLED flexible display technology has excellent performances such as self-luminous, wide viewing angle, fast response time, high luminous efficiency, and thin and light, and it also achieves a breakthrough flexible display in a full-screen mobile phone, a collapsible laptop, a curved display, and a wearable. New areas such as equipment and high-end vehicles have vast application space. IHS data shows that in 2017, the flexible AMOLED panel market grew from US$3.5 billion in 2016 to US$12 billion, with a growth rate of 250%. In 2017-2021, the compound annual growth rate of flexible AMOLED is 22%. Another data show that by 2022, it is expected that flexible AMOLED will account for 68.9% of the market demand for small and medium size semiconductor products.

At present, BOE (BOE) has placed two 6th-generation flexible AMOLED production lines in Chengdu and Mianyang. Chengdu Flexible 6th-generation line has been mass-produced; Mianyang Flexible 6-generation line has been completed and is expected to be mass-produced by 2019. The 6th-generation flexible AMOLED production line in Chongqing will create synergies with Chengdu and Mianyang 6th-generation flexible AMOLED production lines to further increase the global competitiveness of BOE (BOE) in the flexible AMOLED field and even the semiconductor display industry.

On the same day, BOE (BOE) also issued an announcement to build a 10.5-generation thin-film transistor liquid crystal display device (TFT-LCD) production line in Wuhan, Hubei Province. The total investment of the project is 46 billion yuan. The designed capacity is 120,000 glass substrates per month and the size is 2940mm×3370mm. It is used to produce 65-inch and 75-inch 4K/8K and 60Hz/120Hz TV panel products. With the adoption of 8K broadcasting in the international large-scale sports events as an opportunity, ultra high-definition and large-size have become important trends in the display field. BOE (BOE) Wuhan 10.5 generation line will further effectively fill the market gap of ultra-large size ultra-high definition display products and meet the growing demand for high-performance display products from consumers.

In addition, in order to implement the Internet of Things strategy, comply with and grasp the development trend of smart manufacturing and the market demand for smart terminals of the Internet of Things, and realize the transformation and upgrading of the services of intelligent services, BOE A also plans to invest in Suzhou City to build the BOE (Suzhou) Industrial Park. It is understood that this project includes BOE (Suzhou) Zhizhi Service Industrial Park Project (hereinafter referred to as “Zhizhi Service Industrial Park Project”) and other industrial projects that are started in due course. The total investment of BOE (Suzhou) Zhizhi Service Industrial Park is RMB 4.023 billion.

BOE A expects to achieve a net profit of RMB 7.5 billion to RMB 7.8 billion in 2017.
