The results were disappointing, in part due to a manufacturing issue that have since been resolved, according to eMagin. The company says it has experienced a heightened level of activity in the third quarter, both in its commercial initiatives as well as its military programs.

eMagin reported several new military contracts for its OLED microdisplays including a $3.7 million follow-on contact for the US Army Enhanced Night Vision Goggle III (ENVGIII), a multi-year $1.7 million order from a European military contractor for see-through AR HMDs and a $1.5 million order to support the Light Weight Thermal Sight (LWTS) program. In total eMagin says it has booked over 90 new orders totaling more than $6.5 million in the third quarter.
