Corning Incorporated (NYSE: GLW) is announcing a 20% increase to
its display glass substrate prices. The global price increase will
impact all regions, compositions, and glass Gen sizes beginning in
the third quarter of 2023.
This price adjustment is intended to offset ongoing elevated
costs in energy, raw materials, and other non-yen denominated
operational expenses during this period of extended inflation which
has impacted many global industries, including the display
industry.
Corning expects growth in demand for display glass in the second
half of 2023, driven by the continued recovery of the display
industry and typical seasonal demand patterns.
Corning will continue to monitor its operating environment and
make decisions on future pricing adjustments taking into
consideration further changes in market conditions, inflationary
costs, and other industry trends.
