NEEDHAM, Mass., June 5, 2024 – Worldwide shipments of hardcopy peripherals declined 17.6% year over year to 18.8 million units in the first quarter of 2024 (1Q24). Shipment value also contracted 15.6% year over year during the quarter to $9.3 billion, according to new data from the International Data Corporation (IDC) Worldwide Quarterly Hardcopy Peripherals Tracker.
Notable highlights from the quarter include:
- The 1Q24 Tracker results show that all the regional markets had annual declines. Two of the three largest markets saw steep declines of 31.1% and 20.6%, with the third market performing a little better at a decline of 6.6%. One of the reasons for the contractions was that the same period last year had a higher base leading to less favorable year-over-year comparisons.
- While all of the top 5 vendors experienced year-over-year contractions, Brother saw the smalled decline at -8.0%. Brother recorded year-over-year growth in the Asia/Pacific region (excluding Japan and China) thanks to its ability to increase its shipments of Ink Tank models through recruitment of B2B-centered channels.
