Is Universal Display Stock a Buy?
Universal Display Corporation (NASDAQ: OLED) just finished an incredible year, which capped off an amazing decade; the stock doubled in 2019 and gained more than 1,500% since 2010. But recent pullbacks may have investors second-guessing an investment in this OLED (optical light-emitting diode) specialist. Let's dive into the business, what's ahead for this technology, and whether uncertainties surrounding 2020's projections are a warning sign or an opportunity.
Since its founding in 1994, the company has built a portfolio of over 5,000 patents related to OLED development and manufacturing processes. Its revenue comes from three sources: sales of base materials for the development and manufacturing of OLED screens, licensing of its intellectual property, and technology development support/contract research.
The materials and licensing segments made up over 97% of its revenue in 2019 and will continue to be the bulk of its revenue going forward.
