eMagin Corporation Announces First Quarter 2023 Results
First-quarter Total Revenue of
Production-Capable, 160 Metric Ton, Direct Patterning (dPd) Tool Arrives Safely at New Jersey Port
Growth in International Military Sales Offset by Timing of US Military Orders
HOPEWELL JUNCTION, N.Y., May 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- eMagin Corporation, or the “Company,” (NYSE American: EMAN), a U.S.-based leader in the development, design, and manufacture of Active-Matrix OLED microdisplays for high-resolution, AR/VR and other near-eye imaging products, today announced results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2023.
“Our first-quarter results were mixed due to the timing of orders under the ENVG-B programs and
“We continue to upgrade our preventative maintenance procedures and take every action possible to maintain the effectiveness of this older equipment until our new production-capable dPd tool comes online in 2024. We are pleased with our total sales backlog, which remains strong at
“We are excited to report that the upgraded Direct Patterning Display (dPdTM) deposition chamber we received in December has already demonstrated the potential of this disruptive technology. This updated R&D chamber will be used to produce prototype displays in small quantities for both military and commercial markets. As we recently announced, we have produced an ultra-high brightness 15,000 cd/m2 display using this R&D chamber that surpassed the previous OLED microdisplay luminance record of 10,000 cd/m2, which we set just 18 months ago. This milestone is well beyond the threshold requirements for immersive AR and VR devices and will help to overcome inefficient optics and alleviate motion artifacts. Moreover, this latest development will enable our military, consumer, and commercial customers to implement new and advanced features that to date have not been technically feasible, while greatly improving power efficiency and battery life.
“We are delighted to announce that in March, an innovative, production-capable dPd tool, which was designed to our specifications and ordered last year, arrived safely at the Port of Newark. This large, 160 metric ton tool will allow us to produce both commercial quantities of dPd technology displays in addition to expanding our existing OLED technology. The addition of this tool, when fully qualified, is expected to more than double our overall production capacity. We believe that the impressive results of the upgraded R&D chamber, which shares similar design elements, demonstrate the exciting potential of our new production-capable dPd tool. We expect delivery of the new dPd tool to our newly expanded cleanroom by the end of the month, followed by installation and qualification of the tool, with first production runs expected next year.
“Our proprietary dPd technology directly patterns primary RGB color OLED emitters on our silicon backplane, which creates ultra-high brightness light output at ultra-high resolutions with brilliant colors. This is in stark contrast to competing products that utilize color filters with white OLED that significantly degrades the light output. As we continue to advance this technology, future dPd milestones will include the addition of tandem OLED structures and other enhancements that will take the performance of AR/VR headsets and heads-up displays to even greater heights.
“During the second quarter, we expect to resume the proof-of-concept work for a tier-one consumer company that was delayed pending the upgrade to the R&D chamber. Additionally, we will continue work under the US Army’s Program Executive Office for Simulation Training and Instrumentation (PEO STRI) contract to provide high-brightness microdisplays and expect to produce several displays required by the next phase of this contract.
“We look forward to continuing to serve our important military and medical and consumer customers, beginning qualification of the new dPd production tool, and presenting our dPd technology-based products to customers building consumer devices.”
