Samsung Display Seeks Licence To Supply Huawei – Source

Samsung Display’s cross-town rival, LG Display Co Ltd, said in a statement on Wednesday the U.S. sanctions on Huawei would have little effect on the company given its limited panel shipments to the Chinese telecom equipment maker.

The United States further tightened restrictions on Huawei in August, banning suppliers from selling it chips made using U.S. technology without a special licence.

The U.S. Commerce Department’s actions expand restrictions announced in May aimed at preventing Huawei from obtaining semiconductors without a special licence – including chips made by foreign firms that have been developed or produced with U.S. software or technology.
