Nomura analyst Donnie Teng noted that Himax has been able to raise its prices for its liquid crystal on silicon, or LCOS, and wafer level optics, or WLO, for a major augmented reality device recently, which he believes could help the company reach the higher end of its Q3 sales guidance. Teng raised his price target on Himax shares to $12 from $9.70, adding that the company plans to try to provide more cost effective LCOS and WLO products for a possible consumer AR device in 2018, which lead to higher demand. Nomura keeps a Buy rating on the stock.
