eMagin reports production issues and manufacturing delays

eMagin reports that during Q1 2011 the company faced production issues and manufacturing delays, following preventative maintenance in the first quarter. eMagin has been taking a number of steps to restore its production schedule, including running extra shifts on weekends. The company expects that revenues in the first quarter will only be around $5.5 million, but for the whole year they still maintain their revenue guidance of $35 to $40 million.

In August 2010 eMagin announced that they plan to build their own AMOLED microdisplay deposition machine, in an attempt to boost production capacity tenfold.
