eMagin Reports 2006 Results:
Revenue Growth of 118% Reduced Losses
BELLEVUE, Wash., March 28, 2007 -- eMagin Corporation (OTCBB:EMAN.OB), the leader in OLED and personal imaging technologies, has issued financial results for its fiscal year and fourth quarter ending December 31, 2006. The results show record revenues with year-over-year revenues improving by 118%.
Financial Summary
· | Revenue for the three and twelve months ending December 31, 2006, of $2.6 million and $8.2 million increased 101% and 118% respectively from 1.3 million and $3.7 million for the quarter and year ending December 31, 2005. The growth in revenue was directly attributable to increases in microdisplay demand with military OEM growth of 239% driving results. |
· | Cost of goods declined 24% to $2.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2006 from $3.2 in 2005. For the full year cost of goods were $11.4 million in 2006 as compared to $10.2 million in 2005. Gross margins turned positive in the fourth quarter at $138,000 compared to a gross loss of $1.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2005. For the full year ended December 31, 2006 gross loss was $3.2 million compared to a gross loss of $6.5 million in 2005. |
· | Net loss declined 69% for the three months ending December 31, 2006, to $1.5 million from $4.8 million in 2005. For the full year 2006’s net loss was $15.3 million compared to a net loss of $16.5 million during 2005. 2006 included approximately $2.9 million of expenses associated with expensing of stock options. Options were not expensed in 2005. Loss per share for the three and 12 months ending December 31, 2006, were $(0.15) and $(1.52) compared to the same periods ending December 30, 2005, of $(0.51) and $(1.94) per share |
· | Form 10Q for the period ended September 31, 2006, will be amended to reflect revised valuations for derivative liabilities and deferred debt discounts recorded for warrants issued with July’s convertible notes. A Black-Scholes calculation was used to determine each of these values initially using the 18 month life of the notes. The amendment will correct the term to a warrant life of five years resulting in higher valuations. The third quarter’s balance sheet will be amended to reflect $1.3 million of additional derivative liability and $1.2 million of deferred debt discount. The income statement will be adjusted to include approximately $75,000 net of other expense related to the quarterly derivative revaluation and amortization of the debt discount. All of these items are non-cash. |
Business Highlights
· | Chatten Associates, Inc., a Pennsylvania-based hardware developer, modified eMagin’s Z800 3DVisor to fit on a soldier's night vision helmet mount as part of a head-aimed vision system to look for road-side bombs. The result, Chatten’s head-aimed remote viewer (HARV) system, became one of Advanced Imaging’s Solutions of the Year. |
· | Sensor Technology Systems, Inc., selected Tek Gear’s eMagin-based O2 microdisplay OEM kit for their new Enhanced Heads-Up Display (E-HUD) module for the AN/PVS-21 Low Profile Night Vision Goggle. The E-HUD can overlay external video signals, such as navigation data or the output of a thermal scope, onto the real world scene, providing the user with a high level of situational awareness. |
· | The FY 2007 Department of Defense Appropriations Bill included two priority projects sought by eMagin Corporation and the U.S. Army to support projected military needs. The first aims to improve the power-efficiency of OLED microdisplays for U.S. Army thermal imaging applications; the second will result in a very high-resolution, HD-compatible display for U.S. Army medical applications. |
· | The company began taking orders for pre-production version samples of its SVGA-3DS, its first product to combine the company’s OLED-XL technology with its new IC design. The prototype microdisplays will be available in limited quantities with a custom interface design & reference kit (IDRK) in December. |
During the period, year-over-year revenue increases continued at over 100% and are projected to continue to do so through the first half of 2007 with revenue of $3.5 million and $4.0 million for the first and second quarters of 2007. K.C. Park, interim CEO and president, eMagin Corporation, commented, “Strong revenue growth from both microdisplay and system sales demonstrate growing acceptance and use of our products. New orders received during the past four months of over $8.2 million already exceed last year’s revenue and point toward continued expansion of our markets.”
The company reported that its efforts to increase production, yield, and uptime at its OLED microdisplay fabrication facility in Hopewell Junction, New York, continue to bear fruit. “Most important,” noted Park, “With improved margins and growing revenues, we are working to alleviate the current cash deficit and making steady progress toward profitability.”
Full results are available in the company’s 10K report for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006, to be filed with the SEC. Investors are encouraged to review the firm’s liquidity disclosures included in form 10Q and 10K filings.
