Coretronic shipped 1.92 million LED backlight units (BLUs) as well as 52,000 projectors and visual solution devices, with the former decreasing 20% on month and the latter slipping 41% on month and 13% on year, according to the company.
The decrease in shipment was mainly because of fewer working days due to 2023 Lunar New Year holidays in late January, Coretronic said.
