LG Display returned to an operating profit in the third quarter on stronger seasonal demand for OLED panels, although earnings fell 42 percent from a year earlier as a weaker dollar and rising component costs weighed on profitability. The South Korean display maker said Thursday that operating profit reached 250.6 billion won ($189.3 million) in the July-September period, reversing a 107.7 billion won loss in the previous quarter. Revenue rose 12 percent from the second quarter to 6.28 trillion
