eMagin reports its financial results for Q4 2016

OLED microdisplay maker eMagin reported its financial results for Q4 2016. Revenues in the fourth quarter were $4.6 million, down 33% from Q4 2015 - mostly because of a decline in sales to maturing US military programs. Net loss for the quarter was $3.5 million (up from $2.1 million in Q4 2015). For the whole year of 2016 revenues were $21.4 million.

eMagin also announced that it signed a multi-million dollar agreement with "another" Tier-1 consumer electronics company - "an easily recognizable one". This is the third such agreement in the past 15 months. eMagin says that the commercial sector will become more important and will start generating revenues in Q1 2017. eMagin is in active discussions with partners to enable the high volume production capabilities required by the commercial market demand. eMagin started producing samples of its 2k x 2k displays and these should enter mass production in Q2 2017.

"we think eMagin has finally reached an inflection point"

Oppenheimer -

Uerkwitz observed:

 

“eMagin reported 4Q16 earnings on 3/28. While continued winding down of old military contracts drove the weak 4Q, we think eMagin has finally reached an inflection point. With an expected ramp of new military programs, Blaze products making their way to consumers, and revenue-producing development contracts with (now) three major consumer electronics companies, we expect 2017 growth, and the most diversified revenue stream in the past ten years. This sets up 2018 and beyond rather nicely. We maintain a Perform rating for now, however, as we have time to watch the development of a manufacturing strategy, and real consumer shipments of headsets are likely over a year away.”
