Company Report

Corning Offers Investors a Diversified Growth Opportunity With Upside from AI

Corning is a materials science behemoth with differentiated glass products for televisions, notebooks, mobile devices, wearables, optical fiber, cars, and pharmaceutical packaging. In its 170 years of operation, the company has constantly innovated (including inventing glass optical fiber and ceramic substrates for catalytic converters) and oriented itself toward evolving demand trends that it can serve through its core competency of materials science. Most recently, we point to Corning’s domination of the smartphone cover glass market and deals with US network carriers to supply fiber for 5G buildouts as evidence of the pivot toward growth.
