Universal Display reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.
Total revenue in the second quarter of 2022 was $136.6 million as compared to $129.7 million in the second quarter of 2021. The deterioration in the overall global market economy had a negative impact on the demand for OLED products utilizing our emitter material. Revenue from material sales was $71.9 million in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to $77.4 million in the second quarter of 2021.
Revenue from royalty and license fees was $60.3 million in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to $48.2 million in the second quarter of 2021. This increase was primarily the result of a reduction in the forecasted sales volume anticipated over the remaining lives of their respective contracts in accordance with ASC 606.
“Our second quarter started off solidly, but as we approached the summer, customers lowered their order forecasts. Given the downward trend in forecast revisions and increasing macroeconomic uncertainty and volatility, we are revising our 2022 revenue forecast to approximately $600 million, plus or minus $10 million,” said Sidney D. Rosenblatt, EVP and CFO of Universal Display Corporation. “While near-term macro headwinds may weigh on demand, as a lean operating company with a strong balance sheet and no debt, we are well positioned to continue investing in our long-term strategic growth initiatives to reinforce our first-mover advantage, expand our materials and technologies portfolio and broaden our support to customers and the OLED industry.”
“Looking to the OLED industry, we believe that 2024 is shaping up to be a pivotal year for the OLED market and for us,” Rosenblatt continued. “As the stage is being set for the next phase of significant OLED growth with a new wave of gen 6 and gen 8.5 OLED capacity plans reportedly in the works, we continue to believe that we are on track to meet preliminary target specs with our phosphorescent blue by year-end, which should enable the introduction of our all-phosphorescent RGB stack into the commercial market in 2024.”
Operating income was $53.3 million in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to $49.9 million in the second quarter of 2021. Net income was $41.5 million or $0.87 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to $40.5 million or $0.85 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2021.
