Silan revenue fell 12.74% in 2012, net profit fell 88.07%. Country Star Power 2012 revenue fell 11.87%, net profit fell 66.45%.

At the same time, the additional fund-raising plan of LED listed companies are also forced to mortality. Recently, domestic LED leading enterprises Sanan Optoelectronic announced that as the market environment has changed, the company decided to terminate the two-year public issuance of A shares.

Structural overcapacity caused by falling prices in LED market

From the industry view, the Chinese LED industry scale growth rate in 2012 reached 34%, indicating that the market growth rate remained at a higher level. But the speed is much larger than the scale of the entire LED industry capacity expansion growth rate, the intense price competition, and leaded to the entire LED industry exudes a chill.

SEMI China’s senior analyst and the LED project manager Qifa Xin told reporters that as a sunrise industry, the demand for LED market in 2012 had not declined, but the expand production capacity far exceeds demand.

Promising future; in short-term, oversupply will continue

In order to support the development of domestic LED industry, following a long ago LED was included in the government procurement list, the National Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Science and Technology recently released a “semiconductor lighting energy industry planning, said it will gradually increase efforts to promote financial subsidies.
