During the quarter, momentum in the OLED industry continued to grow, from the launch of new flagship OLED smartphones, to increasing demand for OLED TVs, to announced launch plans for the world's first foldable OLED display product. It is exciting to see the consumer market's broadening embrace of OLEDs in a myriad of products, including wearables, smartphones, IT, automotive, TVs, as well as the emergence of OLED lighting. To be sure, Universal Display's top-line gains included 100% growth in material sales to $47 million, and a 131% increase in royalty and license fees to $12 million. Contract research services revenue also jumped more than 70% to $2.6 million, primarily driven by Universal Display's acquisition of Adesis last year. Investors should also note this quarter did not include a license payment from Samsung Display per the two companies' long-term patent license and material supply agreement. Those payments, totaling $90 million in 2017 (up from $75 million in 2016), arrive in two equal chunks in the second and fourth quarters of each year. Now what Given its relative outperformance in the third quarter, Universal now anticipates full-year revenue will arrive in the range of $310 million to $320 million, a big jump from guidance provided last quarter for 2017 revenue of $285 million to $300 million. In the end, this was a straightforward beat-and-raise scenario for Universal Display.
