II   Current Status and Future Outlook of Consumer-Use LiB Market

1. Trends in Entire Consumer-Use LiB Market

• Global consumer-use LiB market in capacity reaches 32,110,007kwh in 2012
• The global market is anticipated to achieve 52.934 million kWh in 2015

2. Trends in Consumer LiB Market by Application

• The shipment of LiBs for note PCs and feature phones has been declining year by year.
• LiBs for smart phones and tablets will increase the market to occupy more than 50% of entire LiBs.
• Impact of shrinking note PC market to cylindrical cells, withdrawal and reviewing of business
• Chinese LiB market players still see cylindrical cells are promising.
• LiB market for smart phones shows rapid growth in volume, due to requirement of LiBs for smart phones to be higher in capacity.  However, the market continues to suffer from the demand of being low price.
• Tablet market in 2015 is likely to exceed note PCs in volume base.
• Slowdown of note PC market has made manufacturers of cylindrical-cell-type LiBs to turn to focus on electric tools.
