The world is truly flat for LG Display -- as in flat-panel displays. The company is one of the world's top producers of thin-film transistor LCDs, the svelte screens that go into laptop and notebook computers, desktop PC monitors, TV sets, wireless handsets, and a variety of applications in automotive navigation, avionics, consumer electronics, instrumentation, and medical equipment. LG Electronics and Philips merged their LCD businesses in 1999; Philips no longer holds any equity in LG Display. The company gets about two-thirds of its sales from customers in the Asia/Pacific region.
