San Juan Capistrano, California – July 29, 2025. PMA Research (PMA), the worldwide market information experts on large displays, have published their latest sell-through tracking reports on large-format (32-inch and larger) flat panel displays being sold by leading North American AV and IT distributors who typically serve commercial markets.

PMA’s June report revealed that the first half of 2025 has been strong for AV sales. The tracking data shows back-to-back revenue growth year-over-year for the first quarter and for the first half of this year, after 8 straight quarters of declines.

This growth was attributed to advanced shipments for projects in the sales pipeline for this summer and early fall, as customers are trying to avoid additional price increases due to uncertain tariffs. This will likely come at a cost – the pipeline for the second half of the year will be thin. Bids and quotations are out there, but order dates are undefined. Higher prices and advanced orders can only go so far, many of the AV projects for 2025 have already been booked.

There were additional bright spots noted in June’s tracking report. Direct-view LED revenues grew by single digits month-over-month and by double digits year-over-year. The growth was all in custom configurations where revenues nearly doubled.

Single panel 110-inch LCD Display sales contributed significantly to revenues in June as well, with revenues doubling compared to June 2024.

Finally, Professional Televisionsales volume and revenues grew month-over-month. Year-to-date, sales and revenues ran 2%-3% ahead of the first half of 2024. These LCDs have been exempted from most of the imposed tariffs through June. Concerns that may change after July 9^th pulled some sales forward into June.

PMA’s monthly Flat Panel Distributor Tracking report offers timely sell-through data and analysis on unit sales and market trends of large-format displays sold by leading U.S. AV and IT Distributors. These reports are ideal for tracking product and channel trends.
