Touch panel shipments on the rise, but revenues expected to fall, says DisplaySearch

Although growth in the global smartphone and tablet markets continues to drive demand for touch panels, touch module makers are now facing greater competition, which is leading to revenue declines for the first time in four years. According to DisplaySearch, 2013 touch panel shipments increased 17% and revenues increased 27% on year. However, 2014 revenues are expected to decline 1%, while shipments are forecast to rise 15%.
