PMA Releases Quarterly Projector Forecast

Pacific Media Associates (PMA) has released their latest quarterly forecast for the projector industry.

Pacific Media Associates (PMA) has released their latest quarterly forecast for the projector industry.

Expectations are that sales of home theater projectors will hit $915 million by year end with strong growth on both a volume and revenue basis over 2011.

“During last year’s holiday season, sales of home theater projectors hit an all-time high,” said Michael Abramson, vice president of Pacific Media Associates. “We expect another new high this holiday season. Attractive offerings in the sub-US$1000 segment are tempting new buyers in both developed and developing countries. And in the mid-range and high-end segments, manufacturers have refreshed their lineups with performance improvements across a range of features such as brightness, native contrast ratio, wireless capabilities, and 3D.”

In terms of shipments, the two main resolutions – native 1080p and native 720p – are forecast to register double-digit growth this year with gains across a variety of channels, including storefronts, online, and home theater installers.

Sales of 4K home theater projectors were launched on a worldwide basis earlier this year, so this will be their first full holiday season of availability.
