Epson Now Holds 39 Percent of Projector Market Share in U.S.
According to PMA Research, Epson continues to hold the number one position in North America for 2013 with a market share of 39 percent, representing a five-point increase year-over-year. With positive revenue growth four years in a row, Epson had the largest total revenue increase in the North American projector market in 2013 with a 24 percent share, which represents a nearly six-point increase year-over-year.
The two largest market share segments for Epson are home entertainment (52 percent of the native 1080p category) and SMB with a 37 percent market share. Recently, Epson launched a line of high brightness projectors (4,000+ lumens) and it will be interesting to see the company’s growth in that category for 2014 — it should be quite large.
One thing that’s interesting to note is that Epson only sells 3LCD projectors — no DLP.
