[Edaily Reporter SOYEON KIM ] "Uncertainty in the second half of the year is very high due to rising semiconductor chip prices. To prepare for risks stemming from declining demand and intensifying competition, we are securing supply flexibility and conducting close monitoring. We will focus on high-end products and adjust our product mix with an emphasis on profitability. Accordingly, profitability in the second half is expected to improve year-over-year. Rising component prices are a concern across the entire industry. We are continuing to increase our market share in smartphone panels and will make full use of our existing production infrastructure to respond promptly to growing market demand. We also plan to carefully review investments in new technologies and execute them proactively.”
