Exhibit 99.1 Kopin Corporation Reports Limited Financial Results for the Second Quarter of 2007 Strong Revenue Growth Expected in the Second Half of 2007 TAUNTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 7, 2007--Kopin Corporation (NASDAQ: KOPN) today announced limited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2007. The financial results reported today do not take into account a planned restatement of certain financial statements, as described in the Company's press release and Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 9, 2007, related to Kopin's historical stock option granting practices. Therefore, these results should be considered preliminary until Kopin files its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Second-Quarter 2007 Financial Summary -- Total revenue of $21.8 million compared with $18.9 million for the second quarter of 2006 and $18.1 million for the first quarter of 2007. -- CyberDisplay revenue of $10.7 million compared with $6.8 million for the second quarter of 2006 and $9.0 million for the first quarter of 2007. -- III-V revenue of $11.1 million compared with $12.1 million for the second quarter of 2006 and $9.1 million for the first quarter of 2007. -- Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $99.6 million as of June 30, 2007 compared with $105.4 million at December 30, 2006. At June 30, 2007 the Company had no long-term debt. Comments on the Second Quarter "Strong demand from digital still camera customers drove a 56 percent year-over-year increase in CyberDisplay revenue," said Dr. John C.C. Fan, Kopin's president and chief executive officer. "World-leading camera OEMs including Olympus, Fujifilm and Kodak have recently chosen our CyberEVF 230K-NF as the electronic viewfinder solution for new models, reinforcing our position as the leading EVF supplier to the mid-range digital still camera market." "Revenue from display sales to the military segment slowed in the second quarter as one of our partners in the Thermal Weapons Sight II (TWS-II) program implemented some product modifications," said Dr. Fan. "The modifications have been completed and we are in the process of resuming shipments. Our strategy for penetrating the thermal weapon sight and night vision goggle markets remains on track and we are well-positioned in the military deployment programs. We expect increasing shipments of displays to our military customers in the second half of 2007 and we expect 2008 to be a strong year for our military segment." "Our HBT product sales increased 20 percent sequentially," said Dr. Fan. "We expect stronger HBT revenues in the second half of this year." Six-Month Revenue Performance For the six months ended June 30, 2007, total revenue was $39.9 million, compared with $37.6 million for the comparable period of 2006. CyberDisplay revenue for the first half of 2007 was $19.7 million, versus $12.7 million through the first six months of 2006. III-V revenue was $20.2 million, compared with $24.9 million for the same period in 2006. "From an expense standpoint our operating margins have been affected in the first half of the year by a sales mix, which had lower HBT revenues as a percent of total sales, an increase in sales of displays to the digital still camera segment, significant investments in our capacity and infrastructure, inefficiencies from increased personnel levels, and higher than normal professional expenses resulting from our stock option review," said Dr. Fan. Investment in Capacity Expansion and Performance Enhancements "We are on track with the installation and qualification of three of the world's most advanced and largest HBT production systems in our Taunton facility," said Dr. Fan. "By the end of this year, our capacity should be approximately 50 percent higher than our 2005 capacity levels. In addition, these advanced systems should enhance our operational efficiencies and improve the uniformity and process control of our 6-inch wafer products." "In our display operations, our new 8-inch production line also should be operational by the end of the year," said Dr. Fan. "Nearly all of the required equipment has been delivered and installed. This new line, in parallel with our existing 6-inch line, should provide us with up to twice our current capacity. These new advanced systems should also further enhance the performance of our displays and operational efficiencies." Business Outlook "In summary, we are very excited about the progress of our major investment initiatives, which commenced in 2006," Dr. Fan said. "The expansion in production capacity is expected to provide us with the opportunity to further extend our HBT and display market leadership and continue our growth in 2008." "Based on the current business environment and the outlook for our CyberDisplay and III-V businesses, we are increasing our expected 2007 revenues from a previously announced range of $80 to $90 million to a revised range of $90 to $95 million," said Dr. Fan. "This increase is being partially driven by strong demand from our digital still camera customers and the expected recovery of our military customer demand. We anticipate continued growth in III-V, driven by demand for advanced wireless handsets and WiFi systems equipped with our transistors. In addition, we see an accelerated pace of activity in mobile video eyewear." Last week, Kopin announced that it was notified by the Nasdaq Listing and Hearing Review Council that the Company has until Tuesday, September 25, 2007 to file its overdue periodic reports and any necessary restatements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and Nasdaq in order to remain listed on the Nasdaq Global Market.
