Photronics’ second quarter results were well received by the market, driven by stronger-than-expected profitability and robust performance in its flat panel display segment. Management attributed the quarter’s outcome to the company’s ability to offset ongoing weakness in integrated circuit demand with growth in high-end display applications, especially in Korea and China.
