These two companies also operated another joint venture, LG.Philips LCD, which focused on LCD panels used in flat panel television sets and laptop computers.

As of 2006, the company had run into bankruptcy and restarted under the same name with investments of a third party (JP Morgan). LG.Philips LCD was not affected by this bankruptcy.

LG.Philips Displays shares were sold in the beginning of March 2007. The company name was changed to LP Displays on 1 April 2007. LP is a historic reference to the old parent companies LG and Philips. The company ended operations in December 2008 due to voluntary liquidation.[13]
