Market Outlook - The company is expected to maintain a low gross margin due to the anticipated increase in revenue contribution from lower-margin segments such as tablet and smart home products [44][22]. - The market for TFT LCD modules is highly mature, and while horizontal expansion may enhance profitability, the focus should be on long-term value drivers for sustainable investment [22].
