KOPIN REPORTS RESULTS FOR THIRD QUARTER 2022
Total Revenues increase 8% year-over-year Defense Revenues Increase 68% year-over-yearKopin Corporation (Nasdaq: KOPN), a leading provider of high-resolution micro-displays and sub-systems for defense, enterprise and consumer augmented reality, virtual reality and mixed reality systems, today provided an update on its business initiatives and reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 24, 2022.
“We had a good quarter with revenues up 8% over the third quarter of last year, driven by growth in our defense and consumer businesses,” said Michael Murray, Kopin’s CEO. “While we continue to drive growth in these markets, my immediate focus is on yield improvements, on time/in full deliveries as well as cost controls, leading to improved margins and cash flow.”
Murray continued, “As we move into 2023 I see numerous opportunities to drive revenues, beginning with accelerating growth from our defense and industrial businesses, where we already have a solid order book. We will also leverage our unique ability to offer complex integrated optical display assemblies, which are critical to increasing the applications for AR/VR/MR, among other opportunities.”
“Technology has always been at the heart of Kopin’s success and we will continue executing on our vision to provide our global customers with brilliance in innovation, design and performance paired with a renewed focus on operational excellence,” concluded Murray.
Third Quarter Financial Results
Total revenues for the third quarter ended September 24, 2022 were $11.7 million, compared to $10.9 million for the third quarter ended September 25, 2021, an 8% year-over-year increase.
Cost of Product Revenues for the third quarter of 2022 was $8.0 million, or 97% of net product revenues, compared with $5.1 million, or 78% of net product revenues, for the third quarter of 2021. The higher cost of product revenues as a percentage of net product revenues was partially due to a $1 million warranty charge due to a supply-chain related quality issue from a vendor.
Research and Development (R&D) expenses for the third quarter of 2022 were $3.4 million compared to $3.8 million for the third quarter of 2021, an 8% decrease year over year. The decrease in R&D expense as compared to the prior year was equally split between internal R&D and customer funded R&D activities.
Selling, General and Administration (SG&A) expenses were $4.3 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared to $4.0 million for the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in compensation and professional fees, which were partially offset by lower stock-based compensation.
Other income and expense included a non-cash impairment charge of $2.0 million related to an investment whose business is being affected by COVID related issues.
Net Loss Attributable to Kopin Corporation for the third quarter of 2022 was $6.1 million, or $0.07 per share, compared with Net Loss Attributable to Kopin Corporation of $2.1 million, or $0.02 per share, for the third quarter of 2021.
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities for the nine months ended September 24, 2022, was approximately $15.6 million. Kopin’s cash and equivalents and marketable securities were approximately $15.0 million at September 24, 2022 as compared to $29.3 million at December 25, 2021.
In July 2022, we sold 675,000 shares of common stock through our existing At-The-Market equity program (ATM), which we had entered into in March 2021, for gross proceeds of $900,000 before deducting broker expenses of less than $100,000. We have not sold shares under the ATM Program since July.
