Nanoco sees launch of its quantum dots in TVs by mid-year
British nanotechnology company Nanoco Group Plc expects the first TVs using its quantum dots technology to be released by mid-year, an analyst who attended a company briefing said, sending its stock up as much as 9 percent.
Nanoco said earlier on Tuesday that it had signed a joint development program with a major South Korean electronics company, which it did not identify but is widely believed by analysts to be LG Electronics Inc.
The South Korean company will launch products using Nanoco's technology following this development period, which will run until July, Nanoco said.
LG, along with Samsung Electronics Co Ltd, dominates the flat panel TV market.
Cadmium-free quantum dots, made of semiconductor materials, enhance colors on display screens such as LED TVs. Manufacturers can also integrate quantum dot technology without needing to add new infrastructure.
"People have come from the analyst presentation with a lot more confidence that the company is on track to achieve the first commercial TV launch in mid-2014," Cannacord Genuity's Arun George said after Nanaco's post-earnings conference call for analysts.
"The key takeaway of the result is that they have enough cash to support the company through the commercial launch," he added.
Nanaco's shares dropped as much as 11 percent in early trading after the company reported a bigger half-year loss and said a plant being built by Dow Chemical Co in South Korea that would produce its quantum dot technology would not be completed until early next year.
Liberum analyst Janardan Menon said before the company's briefing that the early sell-off was a result of the delay in the plant start-up, which would postpone volume production by 6-7 months.

Bit of life here today.

Could be a turning point today as the report on CF creates a horizon to focus on.

JAM tomorrow final result ill show more huge loss will buy @ 80p OCT2014

Afraid it could fall to 80p soon from the chart .

Off 9% today will 80p provide support.

Nice price action today.

Samsung Electronics plan to introduce a cadmium-free quantum dot TV (QD TV) next year.
The quantum dot LCD TV offers a high color range and similar picture quality as OLED screens, but at a far lower cost.
"We will release the cadmium-free QD TV next year," said an official at the company, Thursday.
QD technology was considered a risky venture because of the use of cadmium, a regulated substance due to environmental concerns.
To resolve the issue, Samsung joined hands with Dow Chemical to use cadmium-free QD electronic applications developed by the American chemical company, said officials and industry sources.
Dow Chemical recently started to produce cadmium-free QD materials at its plant in Cheonan, South Chungcheong Province.
Samsung will be able to produce QD televisions and related applications on a large scale next year when demand is expected to grow.
It partnered with other tech affiliates, including Samsung Display and Samsung Technology Center, with Samsung Electronics managing sales and distribution.
The company expects the cadmium-free QD TV to help expand its global market share. QD TV is a variant of LCD TV, meaning it needs no additional large-scale investment to build new manufacturing lines.
"Samsung will push a two-track approach in its TV business next year. One is LCD TVs for low- and mid-tier models, and the other is cadmium-free QD TVs," said an official at the Korea Display Industry Association.
As Samsung shifts its focus toward non-cadmium QD TVs, its chief rival LG Electronics is also mulling producing them.
"We plan to add non-cadmium QD TVs from next year to diversify our product lineup," said an executive at LG's TV business division.
LG Electronics is collaborating with LG Chem and Dow Chemical on cadmium-free QD materials. It plans to release its first cadmium-free QD TV at next January's International Consumer Electronics Show (ICES) in Las Vegas, the United States.
Samsung Electronics is also expected to choose ICES as the venue to release the new TV.
The QD TV is expected to account for 2 million sets or 1 percent the global TV market in 2015, but will approach 10 percent or 26 million sets in 2020, according to DisplaySearch.
"Korean makers may be thinking of repeating their experience with LED TV, when they led in both technology and volume. If QD TV is as successful as LED TV, it could extend the LCD TV era and hold off the threat of OLED TV," the research institute said.

LG Electronics plans quantum dot TVs alongside OLED sets - By Se Young Lee
SEOUL Wed Oct 29, 2014 10:18am GMT

(Reuters) - LG Electronics Inc, maker of expensive OLED display televisions, said it will supplement its line-up of next-generation TVs with sets using cheaper quantum dot display technology under a dual-track strategy.

The world's No.2 television maker after domestic rival Samsung Electronics Co Ltd, South Korea-based LG has been pushing OLED TVs as the next generation technology in concert with affiliate LG Display Co Ltd.

"We are pursuing a dual-track strategy with quantum dot and OLED," LG Electronics Chief Financial Officer Jung Do-hyun told analysts on Wednesday.

Speculation that LG and Samsung would launch quantum dot televisions has intensified after Dow Chemical Co said it will build a new quantum dot plant in South Korea. Commercial production at the plant is expected to begin in the first half of 2015.

LG earlier reported an operating profit of 461 billion won (273.13 million pounds) for the July-September quarter, better than a 454 billion won mean estimate from a Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S poll of 36 analysts.

LG touts various benefits of OLED TV, such as higher picture quality than existing LCD technology and the wider set of design opportunities given its malleability.

However, a 65-inch OLED television launched by LG earlier this year priced at 12 million won in South Korea - far higher than an equivalent UHD television using liquid crystal display technology, the current standard.

Quantum dot display TVs offer a cheaper alternative to OLED TVs and are easier to manufacture, analysts say, although the technology is nascent and few models are currently available, with Japan's Sony Corp among the few companies selling them. With more rivals likely to utilise the technology, analysts say LG cannot afford to be left behind.

"At this point LG has no choice but to release quantum dot TVs to make sure it doesn't lose ground to Samsung while OLED continues to develop," said HDC Asset Management fund manager Park Jung-hoon.

A spokeswoman at LG Display, which supplies panels to LG Electronics, said the firm had supplied quantum dot displays to a client in the first half of 2013. She declined to name the client.


MOBILE TURNAROUND

LG's mobile handset division turned in a 167 billion won third-quarter operating profit, its highest since the third quarter of 2009. Smartphone shipments hit a record 16.8 million units, thanks in part to strong shipments for the flagship G3 smartphone.

The pickup contrasts with domestic rival Samsung, which is expected to report its weakest quarterly operating profit in more than three years on Thursday, following a lacklustre run of new product launches.

LG's TV division reported a 131 billion won operating profit, compared with 124 billion won a year ago as sales of high-end products like ultra high-definition TVs grew. On Tuesday the company said it would wind down its plasma television business by end-November, signalling the imminent demise of a technology that has been overtaken by liquid crystal display.

LG CFO Jung said the firm's fourth-quarter profit should be higher than a year earlier and forecast an annual mid-single percentage rate revenue growth.
