VUZIX CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Vuzix Corporation (“the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain re-classifications may have been made to prior periods to conform with current reporting. The results of the Company’s operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results of the Company’s operations for the full fiscal year or any other period.
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto of the Company as of December 31, 2020, as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 15, 2021.
Customer Concentrations
For the three months ended March 31, 2021,
As of March 31, 2021,
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). ASU 2016-13 provides for a new impairment model which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments, including but not limited to accounts receivable. ASU 2016-13 will become effective for the Company on January 1, 2023 and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 – Revenue Recognition and Contracts with Customers
Disaggregated Revenue
The Company’s total revenue was comprised of two major product lines: Smart Glasses Sales and Engineering Services. The following table summarizes the revenue recognized by major product line:

Significant Judgments
Under Topic 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, we use judgments that could potentially impact both the timing of our satisfaction of performance obligations and our determination of transaction prices used in determining revenue recognized by major product line. Such judgments include considerations in determining our transaction prices and when our performance obligations are satisfied for our standard product sales that include an end-user 30-day right to return if not satisfied with product and include general payment terms that are between Net 30 and 60 days. For our Engineering Services, performance obligations are recognized over time using the input method and the estimated costs to complete each project are considered significant judgments.
Performance Obligations
Revenues from our performance obligations are typically satisfied at a point in time for Smart Glasses, Waveguides and Display Engines, and our OEM Products, which are recognized when the customer obtains control and ownership, which is generally upon shipment. The Company also records revenue for performance obligations relating to our Engineering Services over time by using the input method measuring progress toward satisfying the performance obligations. Satisfaction of our performance obligations related to our Engineering Services is measured by the Company’s costs incurred as a percentage of total expected costs to project completion as the inputs of actual costs incurred by the Company are directly correlated with progress of completing the contract. As such, the Company believes that our methodologies for recognizing revenue over time for our Engineering Services correlate directly with the transfer of control of the underlying assets to our customers.
Our standard product sales include a () month assurance-type product warranty. In the case of certain of our OEM products and waveguide sales, some include a standard product warranty of up to () months to allow distribution channels to offer the end customer a full () months of coverage. We offer extended warranties to customers, which extend the standard product warranty on product sales for an additional () month period. All revenue related to extended product warranty sales is deferred and recognized over the extended warranty period. Our Engineering Services contracts vary from contract to contract but typically include payment terms of Net 30 days from date of billing, subject to an agreed upon customer acceptance period.

Note 3 – Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution from the assumed exercise of stock options and warrants, and the conversion of convertible preferred shares. During periods of net loss, all common stock equivalents are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because they are anti-dilutive. Since the Company reported a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the calculation for basic and diluted earnings per share is considered to be the same, as the impact of potential common shares is anti-dilutive. At March 31, 2021 and 2020, there were

In December 2020, the Company renewed its global non-exclusive master reseller agreement for certain smart glasses software under which it committed to sell a minimum number of new software licenses in 2021, as well as the unsold remainder from 2020. The amount capitalized, included in current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, will be expensed to cost of sales - products sold during the period based upon actual software licenses sold, with any of the remaining prepaid licenses expensed at the end of the term of the master reseller agreement.

On October 4, 2018, the Company entered into amendment No. 1 to agreements (the “TDG Amendment”) with TDG Acquisition Company, LLC (“TDG”), aka Six15 Technologies, LLC. The TDG Amendment amends certain provisions of prior agreements between Vuzix and TDG, including an asset purchase agreement dated June 15, 2012, and an authorized reseller agreement dated June 15, 2012.
Pursuant to the TDG Amendment, the Company is permitted to engage in sales of heads-up display components or subsystems (and any services to support such sale) for incorporation into a finished good or system for sale to military organizations, subject to certain conditions. The Company is also permitted to sell its products to defense and security organizations that include business customers and governmental entity customers that primarily provide security and defense services, including police, fire fighters, EMTs, other first responders, and homeland and border security. The Company will owe TDG commissions with respect to all such sales until June 15, 2022, when the amendment and original non-compete agreements expire, after which the Company will be permitted to sell any product to any customer world-wide without owing any commission to TDG.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
You should read the following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report and in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
As used in this report, unless otherwise indicated, the terms “Company,” “Vuzix”, “management,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to Vuzix Corporation.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Developments and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report. The preparation of these statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the appropriate application of certain accounting policies, many of which require us to make estimates and assumptions about future events and their impact on amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements, including the statement of operations, balance sheet, cash flow and related notes. We continually evaluate our estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements, including those related to revenue recognition, bad debts, inventories, warranty reserves, product warranty, carrying value of long-lived assets, fair value measurement of financial instruments, valuation of stock compensation awards, and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not apparent from other sources. Since future events and their impact cannot be determined with certainty, the actual results will inevitably differ from our estimates. Such differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that our application of accounting policies, and the estimates inherently required therein, are reasonable. We periodically re-evaluate these accounting policies and estimates and make adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate a change. Historically, we have found our application of accounting policies to be appropriate, and actual results have not differed materially from those determined using necessary estimates.
Management believes certain factors and trends are important in understanding our financial performance. The critical accounting policies, judgments and estimates that we believe have the most significant effect on our consolidated financial statements are:
| ● | Valuation of inventories; |
| ● | Carrying value of long-lived assets; |
| ● | Software development costs; |
| ● | Revenue recognition; |
| ● | Product warranty; |
| ● | Stock-based compensation; and |
| ● | Income taxes. |
Our accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report and in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. There have been no significant changes in our accounting policies for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
15
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, an effect on our financial condition, financial statements, revenues or expenses.
Business Matters
We are engaged in the design, manufacture, marketing and sale of wearable computing devices and augmented reality wearable display devices also referred to as head mounted displays (or HMDs), HUDs or near-eye displays, in the form of Smart Glasses and Augmented Reality (AR) glasses. Our wearable display devices are worn like eyeglasses or attach to a head-worn mount. These devices typically include cameras, sensors, and a computer that enable the user to view, record and interact with video and digital content, such as computer data, the Internet, social media or entertainment applications. Our wearable display products integrate display technology with our advanced optics to produce compact high-resolution display engines, less than half an inch diagonally, which when viewed through our Smart Glasses products create virtual images that appear comparable in size to that of a computer monitor or a large-screen television.
With respect to our Smart Glasses and AR products, we are focused on the enterprise, industrial, commercial, security, first responder, medical markets, and, to a lesser degree, defense markets. We also provide custom solutions and engineering services to third parties, including OEMs, of waveguides to enable fully integrated wearable display systems, including head mounted displays to commercial, industrial and defense customers. We do not offer “work for hire” services but rather offer our services for projects that could be expected to result in advancing our technology or lead to a long-term supply or OEM relationship.
All of the mobile display and wearable and mobile electronics markets in which we compete, including mobile and wearable displays and electronics, have been and continue to be subject to consistent and rapid technological change, with ever greater capabilities and performance and, in many cases, including the rapid adoption of tablets and mobile devices with larger screen sizes and improved display resolutions, as well as declining prices on mobile phones and other computing devices. As a result, we must continue to improve our products’ performance and lower our costs. We believe our intellectual property portfolio gives us a leadership position in the design and manufacturing of micro-display projection engines, waveguides, mechanical packaging, ergonomics, and optical systems.
Impact of COVID-19
The implications of COVID-19 on our results from operations going forward continue to remain uncertain. The COVID-19 pandemic still has the ongoing potential to cause adverse effects to our customers, suppliers or business partners in locations that have or will experience more pronounced disruptions, which could result in a reduction to future revenue and manufacturing output as well as delays in our new product development activities. Recent increases in demand for certain chips within the technology sectors and other industries has been one of the ripple effects of the Covid crisis that is causing shortages of certain chips and negatively impacting many companies supply chain and their ability to maintain or grow their production to meet market demands. At this time we are operating successfully but are starting to see longer component lead times which is increasing risk in our supply chain.
On the other hand, we have seen positive growth for Vuzix smart glasses products in the medical field with telemedicine and guided remote support and in enterprise use cases with remote support. In addition, the need for enabling remote training and support for equipment in the field is becoming a new challenge for enterprises to address and our smart glasses products are poised to help companies address these challenges. Flying and the resumption of travel in general remain challenged and, in the interest of safety, companies are looking for alternatives. Vuzix smart glasses solutions and those offered by our Value-Added Resellers provide a wide array of solutions that can help immediately address these challenges. In addition, other new use cases for our products are developing, including their use in medical applications from remote support for residents doing their rounds to remote patient care in assisted living facilities or the ICU (intensive care unit).

Sales of Smart Glasses products rose by 179% in the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily as a result of our M400 Smart Glasses, which tripled in sales as compared to the same period in 2020. Sales revenues from our M-Series Smart Glasses were $3,079,609, a 175% increase of $1,961,651 over the prior year’s quarter. Revenues of Blade Smart Glasses increased by $127,225 or 54% in the three months ended 2021 versus 2020 primarily driven by a 23% increase in unit sales and higher selling prices on our Blade upgraded model as compared to the previous Blade 1.0.
Sales of Engineering Services for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $110,219 as compared to $160,206 in the 2020 period. The revenue recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2021 for engineering services was substantially a result of a current waveguide and projector development project for a micro-display organization, which commenced in the third quarter of 2020. This project is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2021, resulting in an additional $40,000 of engineering services revenue.
Cost of Sales and Gross Profit. Cost of product sales and engineering services are comprised of materials, components, labor, warranty costs, freight costs, manufacturing overhead, software royalties, and the non-cash amortization of software development costs related to the production of our products and rendering of engineering services.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we reported an overall gross profit from product sales of $985,199 as compared to a gross loss of $54,529 in the same period in 2020. On a product cost of sales basis only, product direct costs were 53% of sales in the 2021 period as compared to 54% in 2020. Overall total product margin was also positively impacted by a gain on warranty provision for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as the Company continues to realize lower than expected warranty returns primarily on its M-400 series. Also positively impacting overall product sales margin was the absorption of our relatively fixed overhead costs over a significantly larger sales base.
18
Manufacturing overhead costs while increasing in absolute dollars by 8% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 over the 2020 comparable period, primarily due to manufacturing supply chain additions, decreased to 5% from 8% in the same period in 2020 as a percentage of total product sales. There was a gain on warranty provision of $32,848 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to a warranty expense of $222 in the same period in 2020.
Costs for engineering services for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $15,827 as compared to $25,161 in 2020. The majority of the 2021 period amounts represented the reclassification of our internal R&D wage costs associated with one current waveguide development project. There was a gross profit of $94,392 from engineering services for the three months ended March 31, 2021 versus $135,045 in the same period in 2020.
Research and Development. Our research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation costs for personnel, related stock compensation expenses, third party services, purchase of research supplies and materials, and consulting fees related to research and development. Software development expenses to determine technical feasibility before final development and ongoing maintenance are not capitalized and are included in research and development costs.

Research and development costs for the three months ended increased by $56,869 or 3% as compared to the same period in 2020. This increase was largely driven by a $337,186 increase in salary, salary benefits and stock-based compensation; mostly offset by decreases of $253,496 in external consulting fees related to our M400 Smart Glasses development and maintenance, and a decrease of $26,785 in travel related expenses.
Selling and Marketing. Selling and marketing costs consist of trade show costs, advertising, sales samples, travel costs, sales staff compensation costs including stock compensation expense, consulting fees, public relations agency fees, website costs and sales commissions paid to full-time staff and outside consultants.

Selling and marketing costs for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased by $87,926 or 8% as compared to the same period in 2020. This increase in costs was due to the following factors: an increase of $179,644 in salary and stock-based compensation related expense; a $119,137 increase in advertising; an increase of $91,201 in website development and maintenance costs; an increase of $87,559 in external consulting fees; an increase of $41,913 in inside sales commissions due to our higher commissionable sales revenue; offset by decreases of $333,516 in trade show expenses and a decrease of $64,481 in travel related expenses.
General and Administrative. General and administrative costs include professional fees, investor relations (IR) costs, salaries and related stock compensation, travel costs, office and rental costs.

General and administrative costs for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased by $2,166,017 or 141% as compared to the same period in 2020. This increase in costs was due to the following factors: a net increase in salary, benefits and stock-based compensation expenses of $1,815,215, of which $1,600,688 was non-cash stock-based compensation related to our new Long-term Incentive Plan; an increase of $174,867 in legal fees; an increase in IR and shareholder related expenses of $112,537; an increase of $99,995 in regulatory filing fees with the SEC and FINRA related to our S-3 filing in February; an increase of $70,138 in recruitment and hiring fees; partially offset by a decrease in travel related expenses of $85,080.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $517,412 as compared to $648,541 in the same period in 2020, a decrease of $131,129. The decrease in depreciation expense is primarily due our leasehold improvements in our West Henrietta location, which became fully amortized in October 2020.
Other Expense. Total other expense was $65,405 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to an expense of $22,381 in the same period in 2020, a net increase of $43,024. The overall increase in other expenses was primarily the result of an increase in foreign exchange losses of $26,666 and a decrease of $14,319 in investment interest income, as interest rates continued to decline in the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period of 2020.
Provision for Income Taxes. There was not a provision for income taxes in the respective three-month periods ending March 31, 2021 and 2020.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capital Resources: As of March 31, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $132,722,096, an increase of $96,652,588 from $36,069,508 as of December 31, 2020.

All statements in this quarterly report that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements. We may, in some cases, use terms such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “projects,” “should,” “will,” “would” or similar expressions that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes to identify forward-looking statements.
All such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties and should be evaluated in light of important risk factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These risk factors include, but are not limited to, those that are described in “Risk Factors” in this report and under Item 1A and elsewhere in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the following: business and economic conditions, rapid technological changes accompanied by frequent new product introductions, competitive pressures, dependence on key customers, inability to gauge order flows from customers, fluctuations in quarterly and annual results, the reliance on a limited number of third party suppliers, limitations of our manufacturing capacity and arrangements, the protection of our proprietary technology, the effects of pending or threatened litigation, the dependence on key personnel, changes in critical accounting estimates, potential impairments related to investments, foreign regulations, liquidity issues, and potential material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. Further, during weak or uncertain economic periods, customers may delay the placement of their orders. These factors often result in a substantial portion of our revenue being derived from orders placed within a quarter and shipped in the final month of the same quarter.
We caution readers to carefully consider such factors. Many of these factors are beyond our control. In addition, any forward-looking statements represent our estimates only as of the date they are made and should not be relied upon as representing our estimates as of any subsequent date. While we may elect to update forward-looking statements at some point in the future, except as may be required under applicable securities laws, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so.
Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We invest our excess cash in high-quality short-term corporate debt instruments, which bear lower levels of relative risk. We believe that the effect, if any, of reasonably possible near-term changes in interest rates on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows should not be material to our cash flows or income. It is possible that interest rate movements would increase our unrealized gain or loss on interest rate securities. We are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates primarily through transaction gains and losses as a result of non-U.S. dollar denominated cash flows related to business activities in Japan and Europe. We do not currently hedge our foreign

currency exchange rate risk. We estimate that any market risk associated with our international operations is unlikely to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operation.
Item 4.Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), has performed an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures that are defined in Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation included consideration of the controls, processes, and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our management, including our CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at March 31, 2021.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
