UNIVERSAL DISPLAY CORPORATION ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2017 FINANCIAL RESULTS
EWING, N.J. – February 22, 2018 – Universal Display Corporation (Nasdaq: OLED), enabling energy-efficient displays and lighting with its UniversalPHOLED® technology and materials, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2017.
“We are pleased to report stellar fourth quarter and full-year results,” said Sidney D. Rosenblatt, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Universal Display. “From record-high revenues, to a multitude of new agreements and new OLED consumer electronic products, to approximately doubling our production capabilities at PPG Industries, 2017 was filled with tremendous growth. The dynamic OLED market is growing, and as a key innovation partner to the world’s leading OLED display and lighting manufacturers, we believe that we are well-positioned to participate in the vast opportunities ahead.”
Exhibit 99.1
Rosenblatt continued, “We are excited and confident of our upward trajectory in this multi-year OLED capex growth cycle. After an extraordinary year-and-a-half of new capacity installs, we expect industry capacity growth to take a bit of a breather this year as panel makers build the framework for the next wave of high volume OLED production, which is expected to ramp next year. 2019 is poised to be a meaningful year of growth. Based on current production timelines, we estimate the installed capacity base, as measured in square meters, will increase by approximately 50% over the next two years.”

Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement the selected financial data presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company uses certain non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures include adjusted net income, adjusted net income per common share, basic and adjusted net income per common share, diluted.
Each of these non-GAAP measures excludes the effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act income tax expense. The Company has provided these non-GAAP measures, which is believed to more accurately reflect the operating performance of our ongoing business, to enhance investors’ overall understanding of the current financial performance and period-to-period comparisons. The presentation of non-GAAP measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.
