Located in Himeji, near Osaka, Panasonic LCD supplies LCDs for automotive and industrial applications. Its factory will be under the direct control of the parent company, which Panasonic plans to transform into a production site for EV batteries.

By dissolving the subsidiary, Panasonic will forgive 580 billion yen of debt it owes to another subsidiary, thereby reducing its income tax burden by 121.3 billion yen. The loan will not affect Panasonic’s profitability, as it has established a loss reserve. Instead, the company raised its net profit forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2024 to 460 billion yen, up 73 percent year-on-year. This new forecast is 110 billion yen higher than the previous forecast, a record high. Panasonic’s forecasts for sales and operating income remain unchanged.

Panasonic began producing LCD panels in 2006, and its Himeji plant started making panels for TVs in 2010. But its profitability declined as price competition with South Korean and Chinese manufacturers intensified. The company centralised production in Himeji and focused on automotive and industrial displays, but decided to close the plant in 2019 and scale back its LCD business to selling only stock products. Panasonic posted losses in FY2011 and FY2012 due to the downturn in its flat panel display business, seen as a sign of overinvestment.EV batteries are a growth area, but also a highly competitive area for investment that will need to face challenges from Chinese and South Korean companies.
