Corning makes specialized glass and ceramics for everything from phone screens and car emissions systems to fiber optic cables and lab equipment.
Corning's revenue comes from selling optical fibers, display glass, and specialty materials. Recent annual net income has ranged from USD 0.51B to USD 1.60B.
Corning's deep expertise in materials science and manufacturing processes creates a significant barrier for competitors like Schott AG and AGC Inc. to replicate its specialized products.
