LG Display America

LG Display America, Inc. is the U.S. sales and distribution subsidiary of LG Display Co., Ltd., the South Korean display-panel manufacturer. The subsidiary was incorporated September 24, 1999, is 100% owned by LG Display, and is headquartered in San Jose, California, per the parent's SEC filings (Form 6-K/20-F subsidiary schedules). Parent LG Display Co., Ltd. (KRX: 034220; NYSE ADR "LPL") was founded in 1985 and is based in Seoul; LG Electronics owns 37.9%. LG Display reported FY2025 consolidated revenue of KRW 25.81 trillion (~US$18B) and roughly 23,500 employees as of mid-2026 in its own half-year filing; some third-party data providers list higher employee figures (24,000–53,000), reflecting different reporting dates and methodologies. The parent is publicly traded; LG Display America is not separately listed.

Products / operations. LG Display develops and manufactures TFT-LCD and OLED display panels for televisions, monitors, notebooks and tablets, smartphones and wearables, and automotive applications, and has been shifting its mix toward OLED. LG Display America's stated business in parent filings is selling display products in the U.S. market. The parent also holds display IP through subsidiaries such as Global OLED Technology LLC.

Litigation posture. An operating company on defense: in the tracked data LG Display America has one defendant case and zero plaintiff cases. The sole tracked suit, Delaware Display Group LLC v. LG Display America (D. Del.), is an NPE-filed patent action. Stanford's NPE Litigation Database lists Delaware Display Group LLC as an asserting entity relying on acquired patents, and RPX identifies it and Innovative Display Technologies LLC as Acacia Research subsidiaries; the asserted portfolio covers LCD backlight and light-emitting panel assembly technology.

Context. The tracked case reflects the Delaware Display Group v. LG Display litigation in the District of Delaware (e.g., No. 1:15-cv-01221, filed December 30, 2015, naming LG Display Co., Ltd., LG Display America, Inc., and LG Electronics entities), which followed a related 2013 Delaware action over the same patent family. LG filed IPRs against several asserted patents, and the parties settled and moved to dismiss in 2017. Related DDG/IDT suits were also filed in the Eastern District of Texas against TV, handset, and PC makers; the tracked matter sits in Delaware, not EDTX.
