eMagin Corporation Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2019 Results

Revenue was $7.3 million and $26.7 million in the fourth quarter and for the full year of 2019

Operational improvements and cost reduction efforts yield positive results

Enters 2020 with approximately $11.7 million in backlog

HOPEWELL JUNCTION, N.Y. – March 10, 2020 – eMagin Corporation, or the “Company”, (NYSE American: EMAN), a leader in the development, design and manufacture of Active Matrix OLED microdisplays for high resolution near-eye imaging products, today announced results for fourth quarter and full year 2019.

 “We made significant progress on several fronts in 2019.  From an operational perspective, the concerted effort by our entire workforce focused on production improvements and efficiencies, which led to improved manufacturing yields and production throughput as production volumes increased over 50% during the second half of 2019.  Our R&D engineers and our manufacturing team have done an outstanding job and are committed to further  identifying and implementing improvements to enhance our manufacturing processes,” commented CEO Andrew G. Sculley.

“Our cost reduction efforts which we started in the third quarter and continued into the fourth resulted in a 21% operating expense reduction on a year-over-year basis.  The result is that our net loss was $205,000 or essentially break-even on a per share basis in the fourth quarter as compared to a loss of $2.5 million or $0.05 cents per share in the comparable period last year.  Although it will take a few more quarters to realize the full benefit of the initiatives being put in place, we are very pleased with the progress we have made to date and our performance in the second half of the year.”

“From a demand perspective, we also see positive trends.  For the fourth quarter, total revenue increased to $7.3 million or 35% over the prior year period.  Our contract revenue was more than double from a year ago due to multiple contracts including one for the planned F-35 display improvements and a new project for a consumer electronics customer.”

“We had record bookings in the fourth quarter, exceeding $15 million, which led to a 75% increase in our backlog from the third quarter of 2019.  At December 31, 2019, our backlog of open orders was $14.6 million, including $11.7 million scheduled for delivery through December 31, 2020.  Despite our substantial backlog, we expect first quarter 2020 revenue to be lower year-over-year due to the timing of certain military orders. However, we anticipate stronger revenue in subsequent quarters and expect an overall increase in revenue for 2020,” continued Mr. Sculley.

“As the year ended, we continued to see strong demand and recognition for our OLED microdisplays.  We were awarded the Enhanced Military Capability award as part of the Defense Manufacturing Technology Achievement Awards.  This acknowledgement reflects the innovative OLED technology work that we achieved in a joint project with the U.S. Army Research, Development and Engineering Command, and the Night Vision Electronic Sensors Directorate (NVESD). Additionally, in December, we received two significant orders from prime contractors for our displays totaling $9.9 million and another to support the delivery of the F-35 Helmet Mounted Display Systems for $1.4 million.”

“We remain on target to achieve 10,000 nits brightness by the end of the second quarter.  As we had mentioned previously, the U.S. military has requested 25,000 nits brightness which we expect to reach within three years and are pursuing government funding to help support this effort.”

“Finally, during the fourth quarter, we received 80 orders, of which 3 were from new customers, and supplied product for 23 new programs.  We are pleased to announce that we started a new consumer related development project for a next generation display, as well as 2 orders from existing medical customers,” concluded Mr. Sculley.

Fourth Quarter Results

Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2019 were $7.3 million, an  increase of $1.9 million from revenues of $5.4 million reported in the prior year period, and a slight decrease of $0.6 million from the third quarter of 2019.

Product revenues for the fourth quarter of 2019 were $6.8 million, an increase of $1.6 million from product revenues of $5.2 million reported in the prior year period, and a slight decrease of $0.5 million compared to the third quarter of 2019. The year-over-year increase in product revenue was due primarily to growth in display revenues from customer demand coupled with higher production volumes as a result of increases in throughput and manufacturing yields.Contract revenues were  $0.6 million compared to $0.2 million reported in the prior year period due to multiple projects.

Gross margin for the fourth quarter was 36% on gross profit of $2.7 million compared to a gross loss of $0.5 million in the prior year period.  The higher gross profit in the quarter is due to higher product revenues compared to the year ago quarter when there were production challenges as well as the impact on cost of goods sold of a 20% reduction in senior management compensation effective October 2019.

Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2019, including R&D expenses, were $2.8 million as compared to $3.7 million reported in the prior year period.  Operating expenses as a percentage of sales were 38% in the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to 69%  reported in the prior year period.  R&D expenses were lower in the fourth quarter, primarily reflecting lower internal R&D activity as we focused on production and yield improvements.  SG&A expenses were lower in the fourth quarter versus the year ago period due to lower spending on professional services, legal fees, and lower travel and other discretionary expenses.  Both SG&A and R&D expenses in the fourth quarter also were lower due to the impact of the October 2019, 20% reduction in senior management compensation.

Operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $0.1 million compared to an operating loss of $4.2 million in the prior year period.  Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $0.2 million or essentially break-even on a per share basis compared to a lossof $2.4 million or $0.05 per share in the prior year period.  The 2018 fourth quarter net loss benefitted from a $1.8 million change in the fair value of the warrant liability, which was immaterial in the 2019 fourth quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA the fourth quarter was $0.5 million compared to a negative $3.6 million in the prior year period.

Full Year Results

Revenues for 2019 were $26.7 million, up 2% from the $26.2 million in 2018. Product revenues totaled $24.6 million, representing a 5% increase from $23.3 million in 2018,  due primarily to customer demand coupled with increase in throughput and manufacturing yields.R&D contract revenues totaled approximately $2.1 million as compared to $2.9 million in 2018.  Revenues in the first half of 2019 were impacted by production issues that were resolved beginning in the third quarter of 2019.  The decrease in R&D contract revenue was mainly the result of the completion of several commercial and US Government R&D contracts, in 2019.

Gross margin for 2019 was 25%,  compared to 15% in 2018. The gross margin for 2018 included an impairment charge of $2.7 million related to the Consumer Night Vision Business. Excluding the impairment charge, the total gross margin was 25%.

Operating expenses for 2019, including R&D expenses, were $12.3 million compared to $15.7 million in 2018.  The majority of the decrease was due to lower R&D expenses for company-funded work related to the Company’s direct patterning technology product and process development and resources expended on improving manufacturing processes. During 2018 there was higher spending on professional services related to contract negotiations with prospective consumer electronics and manufacturing partners.

Operating loss for the full year 2019 was $5.6 million versus $11.7 million in 2018. Net loss for the full year 2019was $4.3 million, or $0.09 per diluted share. This compares to a net loss of $9.5 million or $0.21 per diluted share in 2018.  

As of December 31, 2019, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and working capital of $3.5 million and $8.8 million, respectively, and borrowings and availability under the ABL Facility of $2.9 million and $1.2 million,
