Introduction
eMagin
Corporation designs, develops, manufactures, and markets virtual imaging
products which utilize OLEDs, or organic light emitting diodes, OLED-on-silicon
microdisplays and related information technology solutions. We integrate OLED
technology with silicon chips to produce high-resolution microdisplays smaller
than one-inch diagonally which, when viewed through a magnifier, create virtual
images that appear comparable in size to that of a computer monitor or a
large-screen television. Our products enable our original equipment
manufacturer, or OEM, customers to develop and market improved or new electronic
products. We believe that virtual imaging will become an important way for
increasingly mobile people to have quick access to high resolution data, work,
and experience new more immersive forms of communications and entertainment.
Our
first
commercial product, the SVGA+ (Super Video Graphics Array of 800x600 picture
elements plus 52 added columns of data) OLED microdisplay was initially offered
for sampling in 2001, and our first SVGA-3D (Super Video Graphics Array plus
built-in stereovision capability) OLED microdisplay was shipped in early 2002.
These products are being applied or considered for near-eye and headset
applications in products such as entertainment and gaming headsets, handheld
Internet and telecommunication appliances, viewfinders, and wearable computers
to be manufactured by OEM customers for military, medical, industrial, and
consumer applications. We market our products globally.
In
2006
we introduced our OLED-XL technology, which provides longer luminance half
life
and enhanced efficiency of eMagin's SVGA+ and SVGA-3D product lines. We are
in
the process of completing development of 2 additional OLED microdisplays, namely
the SVGA 3DS (SVGA 3D shrink, a smaller format SVGA display with a new cell
architecture with embedded features) and an SXGA (1280 x 1024 picture elements).
In
January 2005 we announced the world's first personal display system to combine
OLED technology with head-tracking and 3D stereovision, the Z800 3DVisor(tm),
which was first shipped in mid-2005. This product was recognized as a Digital
Living Class of 2005 Innovators, and received the Consumer Electronics
Association’s coveted Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2006 Best of Innovation
Awards for the entire display category as well as a Design and Innovations
Award
for the electronic gaming category. In February 2007 the Z800 3DVisor, as
integrated in Chatten Associates’ head-aimed remote viewer, was recognized
as one
of
Advanced Imaging's Solutions of the Year.
We
believe that our OLED-on-silicon microdisplays offer a number of advantages
over
current liquid crystal microdisplays, including greatly increased system level
power efficiency, less weight and wider viewing angles. Using our active matrix
OLED technology, many computer and video electronic system functions can be
built directly into the OLED-on-silicon microdisplay, resulting in compact
systems with expected lower overall system costs relative to alternative
microdisplay technologies. We have developed our own technology to create high
performance OLED-on-silicon microdisplays and related optical systems and we
have licensed certain fundamental OLED and display technology from Eastman
Kodak.
As
the
first to exploit OLED technology for microdisplays, and with the support of
our
partners and the development of our intellectual property, we believe that
we
enjoy a significant advantage in the commercialization of this display
technology for virtual imaging. We believe we are the only company to sell
full-color active matrix small molecule OLED-on-silicon
microdisplays.
eMagin
Corporation was created through the merger of Fashion Dynamics Corporation
("FDC"), which was organized on January 23, 1996 under the laws of the State
of
Nevada and FED Corporation ("FED"), a developer and manufacturer of optical
systems and microdisplays for use in the electronics industry. FDC had no active
business operations other than to acquire an interest in a business. On March
16, 2000, FDC acquired FED. The merged company changed its name to eMagin
Corporation. Following the merger, the business conducted by eMagin is the
business conducted by FED prior to the merger.
Our
website is located at www.emagin.com
and our
e-commerce site is www.3dvisor.com.
We make
available on our website, free of charge, our annual report on Forms 10K, our
proxy statement, our quarterly reports on Forms 10Q, our current reports on
Form
8K, and all amendments to such reports filed under the Securities and Exchange
Act, earnings press releases, and other business-related press releases. We
also
post on our website the charters of our Audit, Compensation, and Governance
and
Nominating committees, our Codes of Ethics and any amendments of or waiver
to
those codes of ethics, and other corporate governance materials recommended
by
the Securities and Exchange Commission as they occur.
Industry
Overview
A
recent
(February 2007) study by NanoMarkets predicts the overall OLED market will
approach $10.9 billion in 2010 and grow to $15.5 billion by 2014. These markets
include various sizes devices for a range of applications from cell phone size
to viewfinder displays to televisions to lighting. Displays in general are
sold
as independent products (such as TV monitors) or as components of other systems
(such as laptop computers). Our products target one segment of the display
industry, the near-eye, personal display, which is viewed through a lens rather
than directly, in comparison to desktop computer screens which are known as
direct view displays. As an off-shoot of our work in microdisplays, we are
also
participating in government-funded development studies for OLED-based
lighting.
4
Personal
displays, that is, near-eye systems based on microdisplays and optics, include
video headsets, camcorders, viewfinders and other portable devices.
Microdisplays are typically of such high resolution that they can be practically
viewed only with magnifying optics. Although microdisplays are typically
physically smaller than a postage stamp, they can provide a magnified viewing
area similar to that of a full-size computer screen. For example, when magnified
through a lens, a high-resolution 0.6-inch diagonal display can appear
comparable to a 19- to 21-inch computer screen at about 2 feet from the viewer
or a 60-inch TV screen at about 6 feet. The wearable display market, according
to DisplaySearch, is expected to grow to at least $153 million in 2010.
McLaughlin Consulting, in a report published December 2006, projects that,
with
effective marketing, the Personal Viewer market could reach nearly $1 billion
in
2010.
We
believe that the most significant driver of the longer term near-eye virtual
imaging microdisplay market is growing consumer demand for mobile access to
larger volumes of information and entertainment in smaller packages. This desire
for mobility has resulted in the development of near-eye microdisplay products
in two general categories: (i) an established market for electronic viewers
incorporated in products such as viewfinders for digital cameras and video
cameras which may potentially also be developed as personal viewers for cell
phones and (ii) an emerging market for headset-application platforms which
include accessories for mobile devices such as notebook and sub-notebook
computers, portable DVD systems, electronic games, and other entertainment,
and
wearable computers.
Until
now, near-eye virtual imaging microdisplay technologies have not simultaneously
met all of the requirements for high resolution, full color, low power
consumption, brightness, lifetime, size and cost which are required for
successful commercialization in OEM consumer products. We believe that our
new
OLED-on-silicon microdisplay product line meets these requirements better than
alternative products and will help to enable virtual imaging to emerge as an
important display industry segment.
Our
Approach: OLED-on-Silicon Microdisplays and Optics
There
are
two basic classes of organic light emitting diode, or OLED, technology, dubbed
single molecule or small molecule (monomer) and polymer. Our microdisplays
are
currently based upon active matrix molecular OLED technology, which we call
OLED-on-silicon because we build the displays directly on silicon chips. Our
OLED-on-silicon technology uniquely permits millions of individual low-voltage
light sources to be built on low-cost, silicon computer chips to produce single
color, white or full-color display arrays. OLED-on-silicon microdisplays offer
a
number of advantages over current liquid crystal microdisplays, including
increased brightness, lower power requirements, less weight and wider viewing
angles. Using our OLED technology, many computer and video electronic system
functions can be built directly into the silicon chip, under the OLED film,
resulting in very compact, integrated systems with lowered overall system costs
relative to alternative technologies.
We
have
developed our own proprietary and patented technology to create high performance
OLED-on-silicon microdisplays and related optical systems, and we license
fundamental OLED technology from Eastman Kodak. (See "Intellectual Property"
and
"Strategic Relationships"). We expect that the integration of our
OLED-on-silicon microdisplays into mobile electronic products will result in
lower overall system costs to our OEM customers.
We
believe that our OLED-on-silicon microdisplays will initiate a new generation
of
virtual imaging products that could have a profound impact on many industries.
Headsets providing virtual screens surrounding the user in a sphere of data
become a practical reality with our displays and a low cost head tracker.
Because our microdisplays generate and emit light, they have a wider viewing
angle than competing liquid crystal microdisplays, and because they have the
same high brightness at all forward viewing angles, our microdisplays permit
a
large field-of-view and superior optical image.
The
wider
viewing angle of our display results in the following superior optical
characteristics in comparison with LCDs and other near-eye display technologies:
· |
the
user does not need to accurately position the head-wearable display
to the
eye;
|
· |
the
image will change minimally with eye movement and appear more natural;
and
|
· |
the
display can be placed further from the eye and not cut off part of
the
image.
|
In
addition, our OLED-on-silicon microdisplays offer faster response times and
use
much less power than competitive liquid crystal microdisplay systems. Our
subsystem-level power consumption is so low that two SVGA, full color, full
speed motion video computer displays can easily be run in stereovision off
the
power from a single USB port on a portable computer. Battery life is extended
and weight is greatly reduced in systems using our products.
5
Our
SVGA+
OLED microdisplay stores all the color and luminance value information at each
of the more than 1.5 million picture elements, or pixels, between refresh cycles
in the display array, eliminating the flicker or color breakup seen by most
other high-resolution microdisplay technologies. Even power efficient frame
rates as low as 30 Hz can usually be used effectively. Power consumption at
the
system level is expected to be the lowest of any full-color, full-video SVGA
resolution range, large view microdisplay on the market. The OLED's ability
to
emit light at wide angles allows customers to create large field of view
(approx. 40 degrees), wide image capture range images from very compact,
low-cost, one-piece optical systems. The display contains the majority of the
electronics required for connection to the RGB (red, green, blue signal) port
of
a portable computer imbedded in its silicon chip backplane, thereby eliminating
many other components required by other display technologies such as
digital-analog converters, application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs),
light sources, multiple optical elements, and other components. We believe
that
these features will enable our new class of microdisplay to potentially be
the
most compact, highest image quality, and lowest cost solution for high
resolution near-eye applications, once they are in full production.
We
have
also developed advanced lens technology which permits our OLED-on-silicon
microdisplays to provide large field of view images that can be viewed for
extended periods with reduced eye-fatigue. Molded plastic prism lenses have
been
developed to help our OEM customers obtain better quality, large area virtual
images using our displays at relatively low cost in comparison to alternate
approaches.
Our
Products
Our
first
commercial microdisplay products are based on our "SVGA series" OLED
microdisplays. We offer products utilizing both our proprietary “OLED” or
“OLED-XL” technologies, applied to the same integrated circuit base. We offer
our products to OEMs and other large volume buyers as both separate components,
integrated bundles coupled with our own optics, or full systems. We also offer
engineering support to enable customers to quickly integrate our products into
their own product development programs.

OLED Microdisplay Component Products
SVGA+
OLED Microdisplay (Super Video Graphics Array of 800x600 plus 52 added columns
of data).
Our 0.62
inch diagonal SVGA+ OLED microdisplays have a resolution of 852x600 triad pixels
(1.53 million picture elements). The product was dubbed "SVGA+" because it
has
52 more display columns than a standard SVGA display, permitting users to run
either (1) standard SVGA (800 x 600 pixels) to interface to the analog output
of
many portable computers or (2) 852 x 480, using all the data available from
a
DVD player in a 16:9 wide screen entertainment format. The display also has
an
internal NTSC monochrome video decoder for low power night vision systems.
SVGA-3D
OLED Microdisplay (Super Video Graphics Array plus built-in stereovision
capability).
Our 0.59
inch diagonal SVGA-3D OLED microdisplays have a resolution of 800x600 triad
pixels (1.44 million picture elements). A built-in circuit provides
compatibility with single channel frame sequential stereoscopic vision without
additional external components.
Microdisplays
Under Development.
We are
developing two additional display products, a smaller format (“shrink”) version
of our SVGA display, which will have 800 x 600 triad pixels and be 0.44 inch
diagonal and an SXGA OLED microdisplay with resolution of 1280x 1024 triad
pixels with diagonal size to be determined. The new products will include a
number of embedded features such as luminance and dimming ranges.
Lens
and Design Reference Kits.
We
offer a WF05 prism optic, with mounting brackets or combined with OLED
microdisplays to form an optic-display module. We provide Design Reference
Kits,
which include a microdisplay and associated electronics to help OEMs evaluate
our microdisplay products and to assist their efforts to build and test new
products incorporating our microdisplays.
Integrated
Modules. We
provide near-eye virtual imaging modules that incorporate our OLED-on-silicon
microdisplays with our lenses and electronic interfaces for integration into
OEM
products. We have shipped customized modules to several customers, some of
which
have incorporated our products into their own commercial products.
Our
Z800
3DVisors(tm) give users the ability to work with their hands while
simultaneously viewing information or video on the display. The Z800 3DVisor
enables more versatile portable computing, using a 0.59-inch diagonal
microdisplay (SVGA-3D capable of delivering an image that appears comparable
to
that of a 19-inch monitor at 22 to 24 inches from the eye, or a 105 inch movie
screen at 12 foot distance. Our systems are currently being used for personal
entertainment, electronic gaming, and military training and simulation, among
other applications. We believe that personal display systems will fill the
increasing demand for instant data accessibility and privacy in mobile
workplaces. We sell the personal display systems to OEM systems and equipment
customers, through distributors, and through our e-commerce website,
www.3dvisor.com.
6
Our
Market Opportunity - Personal Display Systems Platforms, including Head-wearable
Displays
The
growth potential of our selected target market segments have been investigated
using information gathered from key industry market research firms, including
DisplaySearch, Frost and Sullivan, Fuji-Chimera, International Data Corporation,
Nikkei, SEMI, Stanford Resources-iSuppli and others. Such data was obtained
using published reports and data obtained at industry symposia. We have also
relied substantially on market projections obtained privately from industry
leaders, industry analysts, and potential customers.
The
virtual-imaging markets we are targeting include industrial, medical, military,
arcade games, 3-D CAD/Virtual Reality, and wearable computers. Within each
of
these market sectors, we believe that our microdisplays, when combined with
compact optic lenses, will become a key component for a number of mobile
electronic products. Applications we are targeting the following:
Head-wearable
displays incorporate microdisplays mounted in or on eyeglasses, goggles, simple
headbands, helmets, or hardhats, and are often referred to as head-mounted
displays (HMDs) or headsets. Head-wearable displays may block out surroundings
for a fully immersive experience, or be designed as "see-through" or
"see-around" to the user's surroundings. They may contain one (monocular) or
two
(binocular) displays. Some of the increased current interest is due to
accelerating the timetable to adapt such systems to military applications such
as night vision and fire and rescue applications. These have military,
commercial, and consumer applications.
Military
Military
demand for head-wearable displays is currently being met with microdisplay
technologies that we believe to be inferior to our OLED-on-silicon products.
The
new generation of soldiers will be highly mobile, and will often need to carry
highly computerized communications and surveillance equipment. To enable
interaction with the digital battlespace, rugged, yet lightweight and energy
efficient technology is required. Currently available microdisplay technologies
do not meet the requirements for low power, hands-free, day and night-viewable
displays. Our OLED microdisplays demonstrate performance characteristics
important to military and other demanding commercial and industrial applications
including high brightness and resolution, wide dimming range, wider temperature
operating ranges, shock and vibration resistance and insensitivity to high
G-forces. The image does not suffer from flicker or color breakup in vibrating
environments, and the microdisplay's wide viewing angle allows ease of viewing
for long periods of time. The OLED's very low power consumption reduces battery
weight and increases allowed mission length. Properly implemented, we believe
that head-mounted systems incorporating our microdisplays will increase
effectiveness by allowing hands-free operation and increasing situational
awareness with enough brightness to be used in daylight, yet controllable for
nighttime light security. The OLED's wide temperature range is especially of
interest for military applications because the display can turn on instantly
at
temperatures far below freezing and can operate at very high temperatures in
desert conditions.
Our
OLED
microdisplays have been selected for a range of defense-security applications,
including a situational awareness HMD for the US Army Land Warrior programs,
a
handheld thermal imager for border patrol and training, and simulation virtual
monitors for Quantum 3D. The Land Warrior, a core program in the Army's drive
to
digitize the battlefield, is an integrated digital system that incorporates
computerized communication, navigation, targeting and protection systems for
use
by the twenty-first century infantry soldier. Rockwell Collins, the principal
contractor for the US Army's Land Warrior HMD system, and eMagin applied their
respective expertise in HMD and imaging technology to develop rugged, yet
lightweight and energy efficient products meeting the requirements of tomorrow's
soldier. The US Army expects to initially equip more than 40,000 soldiers with
the Land Warrior system. The current overall redesign of the Land Warrior system
by General Dynamics and Rockwell Collins has delayed increased volume use of
displays beyond small quantities for that program until a future date to be
determined. Our display is also used in Rockwell Collins’ commercially available
ProView S035 Monocular HMD. Night Vision Equipment Corporation's
HelmetIR-50(TM), a lightweight, military helmet mounted thermal imager, which
provides hands-free operation and allows viewers to see through total darkness,
battlefield obscurants, and even foliage, is the first OLED-equipped product
to
be listed on the US Government's GSA schedule. Virtually Better Inc. has
incorporated our Z800 3DVisor into its “Virtual Iraq” treatment for
post-traumatic stress disorders. In addition, our displays have been
commercialized, or planned to be commercialized, by military systems integrators
including Insight Technologies, Elbit, Thales, Sagem, and Nivisys, among others.
We cannot assure that Government projects will remain on schedule, or be fully
implemented. Similar systems are of interest for other military applications
as
well as for related operations such as fire and rescue.
Commercial,
Industrial, and Medical
We
believe that a wide variety of commercial and industrial markets offer
significant opportunities due to increasing demand for instant data
accessibility in mobile workplaces. Some examples of microdisplay applications
include: immediate access to inventory such as parts, tools and equipment
availability; instant accessibility to maintenance or construction manuals;
routine quality assurance inspection; endoscopic surgery; and real-time viewing
of images and data for a variety of applications. As one potential example,
a
user wearing a HMD while using test equipment, such as oscilloscopes, can view
technical data while simultaneously probing printed circuit boards. Commercial
products in these sectors include Sage Technologies, Ltd.'s Helmet Vue (TM)
Thermal Imaging System and Liteye's 500, which incorporates IBM's wearable
PC
technology. VRmagic GmbH, a leading developer of virtual reality simulators,
is
using our OLED microdisplays in their EYESI(TM) Virtual Reality Surgical
Simulator, which provides real-time simulation of ophthalmic surgery, high
performance biomechanical tissue simulation, precision tracking, and realistic
stereo imaging. Sensics has incorporated our OLED displays in their immersive
SkyVizor (TM) virtual reality headset to serve as the "eyes" of the Robonaut,
a
humanoid robot being developed by NASA and Department of Defense agencies.
The
Robonaut system can work side by side with humans, or alone in high-risk
situations. Telepresence uses virtual reality display technology to visually
immerse the operator into the robot's workspace, facilitating operation and
interaction with the Robonaut, and potentially reducing the number of dangerous
space walks required of real astronauts.
7
Consumer
We
believe that our head-wearable display products will enhance the following
consumer products:
· |
Entertainment
and gaming video headset systems, which permit individuals to view
television, including HDTV, video CDs, DVDs and video games on virtual
large screens or stereovision in private without disturbing others.
We
believe that these new headset game systems can provide a game or
telepresence experience not otherwise practical using conventional
direct
view display technology. The advent of video iPods and the rapidly
increasing amount of downloadable content have accelerated the movement
toward portable video technology. At the same time, the desire for
larger
screen sizes while retaining the iPod portability has been referenced
in
many publications. Virtual imaging uniquely provides a large, high
resolution view in a small portable package, and we believe that
our OLED
on silicon technology is a best fit to help open this market.
|
· |
Notebook
computers, which can use head-wearable devices to reduce power
requirements as well as expand the apparent screen size and increase
privacy. Current notebook computers do not use microdisplays. Our
products
can apply not only to new models of notebook computers, but also
as
aftermarket attachments to older notebooks still in use. The display
can
be easily used as a second monitor on notebook computers for ease
of
editing multiple documents to provide multiple screens or for data
privacy
while traveling. It can also be used to provide larger screen capability
for viewing spreadsheets or complex computer aided design (CAD) files.
We
expect to market our head-wearable displays to be used as plug-in
peripherals to be compatible with most notebook computers. We believe
that
the SVGA-3D microdisplay is well suited for most portable PC headsets.
Our
microdisplays can be operated using the USB power source of most
portable
computers. This eliminates added power supplies, batteries, and rechargers
and reduces system complexity and cost.

· |
Handheld
personal computers, whose small, direct view screens are often
limitations, but which are now capable of running software applications
that would benefit from a larger display. Microdisplays can be built
into
handheld computers to display more information content on virtual
screens
without forfeiting portability or adding the cost a larger direct
view
screen. Microdisplays are not currently used in this market. We believe
that GPS viewers and other novel products are likely to develop as
our
displays become more available.

The
combination of power efficiency, high resolution, low systems cost, brightness
and compact size offered by our OLED-on-silicon microdisplays has not been
made
available to makers and integrators of existing entertainment and gaming video
headset systems, notebook computers and handheld computers. We believe that
our
microdisplays will propel the growth of new products and applications such
as
lightweight wearable computer systems.
Our
Strategy
Our
strategy is to establish and maintain a leadership position as a worldwide
supplier of microdisplays and virtual imaging technology solutions for
applications in high growth segments of the electronics industry by capitalizing
on our leadership in both OLED-on-silicon technology and microdisplay lens
technology. We aim to provide microdisplay and complimentary accessories to
enable OEM customers to develop and manufacture new and enhanced electronic
products. Some key elements of our strategy to achieve these objectives include
the following:
· |
Leverage
our superior technology to establish a leading market position. As
the
first to exploit OLED-on-silicon microdisplays, we believe that we
enjoy a
significant advantage in bringing this technology to market.
|
· |
Optimize
manufacturing efficiencies by outsourcing while protecting proprietary
processes. We outsource certain portions of microdisplay production,
such
as chip fabrication, to minimize both our costs and time to market.
We
intend to retain the OLED application and OLED sealing processes
in-house.
We believe that these areas are where we have a core competency and
manufacturing expertise. We also believe that by keeping these processes
under tight control we can better protect our proprietary technology
and
process know-how. This strategy will also enhance our ability to
continue
to optimize and customize processes and devices to meet customer
needs. By
performing the processes in-house we can continue to directly make
improvements in the processes, which will improve device performance.
We
also retain the ability to customize certain aspects such as color
balance, which is known as chromaticity, as well as specialized boards
or
interfaces, and to adjust other parameters at the customer's request.
In
the area of lenses and head-wearable displays, we intend to focus
on
design and development, while working with third parties for the
manufacture and distribution of finished products. We intend to prototype
new optical systems, provide customization of optical systems, and
manufacture limited volumes, but we intend to outsource high volume
manufacturing operations. There are numerous companies that provide
these
outsource services.
|
8
· |
Build
and maintain strong internal design capabilities. As more circuitry
is
added to OLED-on-silicon devices, the cost of the end product using
the
display can be decreased; therefore integrated circuit design capability
will become increasingly important to us. To meet these requirements,
we
utilize in-house design capabilities supplemented by outsourced design
services. Building and maintaining this capacity will allow us to
reduce
engineering costs, accelerate the design process and enhance design
accuracy to respond to our customers' needs as new markets develop.
In
addition, we intend to maintain a product design staff capable of
rapidly
developing prototype products for our customers and strategic partners.
Contracting third party design support to meet demand and for specialized
design skills will also remain a part of our overall long term strategy.
|
Our
Strategic Relationships
Strategic
relationships have been an important part of our research and development
efforts to date and are an integral part of our plans for commercial product
launch. We have forged strategic relationships with major OEMs and strategic
suppliers. We believe that strategic relationships allow us to better determine
the demands of the marketplace and, as a result, allow us to focus our future
research and development activities to better meet our customer's requirements.
Moreover, we expect to provide microdisplays and Microviewers(TM) to some of
these partners, thereby taking advantage of established distribution channels
for our products.
Eastman
Kodak is a technology partner in OLED development, OLED materials, and a
potential future customer for both specialty market display systems and consumer
market microdisplays. We license Eastman Kodak's OLED and optics technology
portfolio. We have a nonexclusive; perpetual, worldwide license to use Eastman
Kodak patented OLED technology and associated intellectual property in the
development, use, manufacture, import and sale of microdisplays. The license
covers emissive active matrix microdisplays with a diagonal size of less than
2
inches for all OLED display technology previously developed by Kodak. An annual
minimum royalty is paid at the beginning of each calendar year and is fully
creditable against the royalties we are obligated to pay based on net sales
throughout the year. Eastman Kodak and eMagin have engaged in numerous
discussions regarding potential product applications for eMagin's microdisplays
by Eastman Kodak.
We
are
working cooperatively with the US Army, US Navy, and with several military
system integrators to further characterize operation of our displays in rugged
military environments.
We
are a
member of the United States Display Consortium, a cooperative agency of display
and related technology manufacturers whose charter is to support continued
progress of the display industry. We are currently partnering with the
University of Michigan to develop advanced display process via a
government-sponsored research program. We intend to continue to establish
additional strategic relationships in the future.
Our
Technology Platforms
OLED-on-Silicon
Technology
Scientists
working at Eastman Kodak invented OLEDs in the early 1980s. OLEDs are thin
films
of stable organic materials that emit light of various colors when a voltage
is
impressed across them. OLEDs are emissive devices, which mean they create their
own light, as opposed to liquid crystal displays, which require a separate
light
source. As a result, OLED devices use less power and can be capable of higher
brightness and fuller color than liquid crystal microdisplays. Because the
light
they emit is Lambertian, which means that it appears equally bright from most
forward directions, a moderate movement in the eye does not change the image
brightness or color as it does in existing technologies. OLED films may be
coated on computer chips, permitting millions of individual low-voltage light
sources to be built on silicon integrated circuits to produce single color,
white or full-color display arrays. Many computer and video electronic system
functions can be built directly into a silicon integrated circuit as part of
the
OLED display, resulting in an ultra-compact system. We believe these features,
together with the well-established silicon integrated circuit fabrication
technology of the semiconductor industry, make our OLED-on-silicon microdisplays
attractive for numerous applications.
We
believe our technology licensing agreement with Eastman Kodak, coupled with
our
own intellectual property portfolio, gives us a leadership position in OLED
and
OLED-on-silicon microdisplay technology. Eastman Kodak provides OLED technology
and we provide additional technology advancements that have enabled us to coat
the silicon integrated circuits with OLEDs.
9
We
have
developed numerous and significant enhancements to OLED technology as well
as
key silicon circuit designs to effectively incorporate the OLED film on a
silicon integrated circuit. For example, we have developed a unique,
top-emitting structure for our OLED-on-silicon devices that enables OLED
displays to be built on opaque silicon integrated circuits rather than only
on
glass. Our OLED devices can emit full visible spectrum light that can be
isolated with color filters to create full color images. Our microdisplay
prototypes have a brightness that can be greater than that of a typical notebook
computer and can have a potential useful life of over 50,000 operating hours,
in
certain applications. New materials and device improvements in development
offer
future potential for even better performance for brightness, efficiency, and
lifespan. Additionally, we have invested considerable work over several years
to
develop unique electronics control and drive designs for OLED-on-silicon
microdisplays.
In
addition to our OLED-on-silicon technology, we have developed compact optic
and
lens enhancements which, when coupled with the microdisplay, provide the high
quality large screen appearance that we believe a large proportion of the
marketplace demands.
Advantages
of OLED Technology
We
believe that our OLED-on-silicon technology provides significant advantages
over
existing solutions in our targeted microdisplay markets. We believe these key
advantages will include:
· |
Low
manufacturing cost;
|
· |
Low
cost system solutions;
|
· |
Wide
angle light emission resulting in large apparent screen size;
|
· |
Low
power consumption for improved battery life and longer system life;
|
· |
High
brightness for improved viewing;
|
· |
High-speed
performance resulting in clear video images;
|
· |
Wide
operating temperature range; and
|
· |
Good
environmental stability (vibration and humidity).
|
Low
manufacturing cost. Many
OLED-on-silicon microdisplays can be built on an 8-inch silicon wafer using
existing automated OLED and color filter processing tools. The level of
automation used lowers labor costs. Only a minute amount of OLED material is
used in each OLED-on-silicon microdisplay so that material costs, other than
the
integrated circuit itself, are small. The number of displays per silicon wafer
may be higher on OLEDs than on liquid crystal displays, or LCDs, because OLEDs
do not require a space-wasting perimeter seal band. Expensive transparent wafers
with CMOS silicon laminated onto quartz are not required for OLED microdisplays,
as standard CMOS chips may be used as backplanes.
Low
cost systems solutions. In
general, an OEM using OLED-on-silicon microdisplays will not need to purchase
and incorporate lighting assemblies, color converter related Applications
Specific Integrated Circuits, or ASICs, or beam splitter lenses as is the case
in liquid crystal microdisplays, which also require illumination. Many important
display-related system functions can be incorporated into an OLED-on-silicon
microdisplay, reducing the size and cost of the system. Non-polarized light
from
OLEDs permit lenses for many OLED-on-silicon applications that are made of
a
single piece of molded plastic, which reduces size, weight and assembly cost
when compared to the multipiece lens systems used for liquid crystal
microdisplays. System cost relative to liquid crystal and liquid crystal on
silicon, or LCOS, competitive products is thus reduced. Because our displays
are
power efficient, they typically require less power at the system level than
other display technologies at a given display size and brightness.
Wide-angle
light emission simplifies optics for large apparent screen size.
OLEDs
emit light at most forward directions from each pixel. This permits the display
to be placed close to the lens in compact optical systems. It also provides
the
added benefit of less angular dependence on the image quality relative to pupil
and eye position when showing a large field of view, unlike reflective LCOS
microdisplays. This results in less eye fatigue and makes it relatively easy
to
low power consumption for improved battery life and longer system life. OLEDs
emit light rather than transmitting it, so no power-consuming backlight or
front
light, as required for liquid crystal displays, is required. OLEDs can be energy
efficient because of their high efficiency light generation. Furthermore, OLEDs
conserve power by powering only those pixels that are on while liquid crystal
on
silicon requires light at all pixels all the time. Most optical systems used
for
our OLEDs are highly efficient, permitting over 80% of the light to reach the
eye, whereas reflective technologies such as liquid crystal on silicon require
multiple beam splitters to get light to the display, and then into the optical
system. This results in typically less than 25% light throughput efficiency
in
reflective microdisplay systems. Most important, we do not need a power-hungry
video frame buffer, as required in liquid crystal frame-sequential color
systems. Battery life can therefore be extended.
10
High
brightness for improved viewing. This
feature can be of great value to military applications, where there is a need
to
see the computer image overlaid onto brightly lit real-life backgrounds such
as
desert sand, water reflections or sunlit clouds. The OLED can be operated over
a
large luminance range without loss of gray level control, permitting the
displays to be used in a range of dark environments to very bright ambient
applications. Since military simulation and situation awareness applications,
including night vision, typically require large fields of view, the OLED's
Lambertian optical characteristics make it an excellent choice.
High-speed
performance resulting in clear video image. OLEDs
switch much more rapidly than liquid crystals or most cathode ray tubes, or
CRTs. This results in smear-free video rate imagery and provides improved image
quality for DVD playback applications. This eliminates visible image smear
and
makes practicable three-dimensional stereo imaging using a split frame rate.
This advantage of our OLED-on-silicon is very important for 3-D stereovision
gaming applications.
Flicker-free
and no color breakup. Because
the OLED-on-silicon stores brightness and color information at each pixel,
the
display can be run with no noticeable flicker and no color sequential breakup,
even at low refresh rates. A lower refresh rate not only helps reduce power,
but
it also facilitates system integration. Color sequential breakup occurs in
systems such as liquid crystal on silicon and some liquid crystal display
microdisplays when red, green and blue frames are sequentially imaged in time
for the eye to combine. Since the different color screens occur at different
times, movement of the eye due to vibration or just fast pupil movement can
create color bands at each dark-light edge, making the image unpleasant to
view
and making text difficult to read. For example, the liquid crystal on silicon
display needs to run at least three times the "normal" frame rate or speed
to
produce color sequential images, which wastes power and makes for a difficult
technological challenge as display resolutions increase.
Wide
operating temperature range.
Our
OLEDs offer much less temperature sensitivity at both high and low temperatures
than LCDs. LCDs are sluggish or non-operative much below freezing unless heaters
are added and lose contrast above 50 degrees Celsius, while our OLEDs turn
on
instantly and can operate between -55 degrees Celsius and 130 degrees Celsius.
We specify a smaller temperature range on most consumer products to accommodate
lower cost packaging. This is an important characteristic for many portable
products that may be used outdoors in many varying environmental conditions.
It
is especially important for military customers. Insensitivity to vibration,
shock, and pressure are also important environmental control attributes.
Complementary
lens and system technologies.
We have
developed a wide range of technologies which complement our core OLED and lens
technologies and which will enhance our competitive position in the microdisplay
and head-wearable display markets. These include:
Lens
technology.
High
quality, large view lenses with a wide range for eye positioning are essential
for using our displays in near-eye systems. We have developed advanced lens
technology for microdisplays and personal head-wearable display systems and
hold
key patents in these areas. Our lens technology permits our OLED-on-silicon
microdisplays to provide large field of view images that can be viewed for
extended periods with reduced eye-fatigue. We have engaged a firm to manufacture
our lenses in order to provide them in larger quantities to our customers and
are using them in our own personal display systems.
We
believe that the key advantages of our lens technology include:
· |
Can
be very low cost, with minimal assembly. A one piece, molded plastic
optic
attached to the microdisplay has been introduced and may potentially
serve
consumer end-product markets. Since our process is plastic molding,
our
per unit production costs are low;
|
· |
Allows
a compact and lightweight lens system that can greatly magnify a
microdisplay to produce a large field of view. For example, our WF05
prism
lens, in combination with our SVGA OLED microdisplay, provides a
virtual
view equivalent to that of a 105-inch diagonal display viewed at
12 feet;
|
· |
Can
use single-piece molded microdisplay lenses to permit high light
throughput making the display image brighter or permitting the use
of less
power for an acceptable brightness;
|
· |
Can
be designed to provide focusing to enable users with various eyesight
qualities to view images clearly; and
|
· |
Can
optionally provide focal plane adjustment for simultaneous focusing
of
computer images and real world objects. For example, this characteristic
is beneficial for word processing or spreadsheet applications where
a
person is typing data in from reference material. This feature can
make it
easier for people with moderately poor accommodation to use a
head-wearable display as a portable computer-viewing accessory.
|
11
Personal
display system technology.
We have
developed ergonomic technologies that make head-wearable displays easier to
use
in a wide variety of applications. For example, the use of our patented
rotatable Eyeblocker(TM) provides a sharp image without requiring most users
to
squint. The Eyeblocker can also be moved to create an effective see-through
appearance. To our knowledge, we have made the lightest weight, high-resolution
head-wearable display with an over 35 degree diagonal field of view ever
publicly demonstrated. We have also incorporated low cost, small size, high
speed headtrackers to further enhance game and telepresence applications.
Sales
and Marketing
We
primarily provide display components for OEMs to incorporate into their branded
products and sell through their own well-established distribution channels.
In
addition, we market head-wearable displays directly to various vertical market
channels, such as medical, industrial, and government customers. A typical
buyer
is a manufacturer of a product requiring a specific resolution of visual display
or viewfinder for insertion into a product such as a portable DVD headset,
a
PC-gaming headset, or an instrument.
We
market
our services in North America, Asia, and Europe primarily through direct
technical sales from our headquarters. Regular purchase orders are processed
by
our customer service coordinators and technical questions related to product
purchases or product applications are processed by our technical support team.
As a market-driven company, we assess customer needs both quantitatively and
qualitatively, through market research and direct communications. Because our
microdisplays are the main functional component that defines many of our
customers' end products, we work closely with potential customers to define
our
products to optimize the final design, typically on a senior
engineer-to-engineer basis. Our personal display systems are sold through select
resellers and on-line through our e-commerce site, www.3dvisor.com,
and via
www.amazon.com, www.pcmall.com, and www.skymall.com.
We
identify companies with end products and applications for which we believe
that
our products will provide a system level solution and for which our products
can
be a key differentiator. We target both market leaders and select early adopter
companies; their acceptance validates our technology and approach in the market.
We believe successful marketing will require relationships with recognized
consumer brand companies.
Near
term
sales efforts for OLED microdisplays have been focused on our military,
industrial, and medical customers. We have received production orders and design
wins for both the SVGA+ and SVGA 3D displays. To date, we have shipped products
and evaluation kits to more than 200 OEM customers. An OEM design cycle
typically requires between 6 and 36 months, depending on the uniqueness of
the
market and the complexity of the end product. New product development may
require several design iterations prior to commercialization. Some of our
initial customers have completed their initial evaluation cycle and we are
now
receiving follow-on orders and notification of product purchase decisions.
We
have also received notification that our microdisplays will be used as
components in versions 1.0 and 2.0 of the US Army Land Warrior program and
in
the French FELIN program, among others. (See "Our Market Opportunity: Military;
Commercial, Industrial, and Medical; and Consumer")
Customers
Customers
for our products include both large multinational and smaller OEMs. We maintain
relationships with OEMs in a diverse range of industries encompassing the
military, industrial, medical, and consumer market sectors. During 2006, 59%
of
our net revenue was to firms based in the United States and 41% was to
international firms, compared to 49% domestic revenue and 51% international
revenue during 2005. In 2006, we had 5 customers that accounted for more than
68% of our total revenue. In 2006, we had one customer that accounted for 13%
of
its total revenues as compared to 2005, where we had no customers that accounted
for more than 10% of our total revenue.
Backlog
As
of
March 15, 2007, we had a backlog of approximately $ 6.1 million for purchases
through December 31, 2007. This backlog consists of purchase orders and purchase
agreements but does not include expected revenue from our 2 military government
R&D contracts of approximately $2 million in 2007, expected NRE
(non-recurring engineering) programs under development, or regular run rate
orders from new or existing OEM customer orders.
The
majority of our backlog consists of purchase agreements for delivery over the
next 12 months. Most purchase orders are subject to rescheduling or cancellation
by the customer with no or limited penalties. Because of the possibility of
customer changes in delivery schedules or cancellations and potential delays
in
product shipments, our backlog as of a particular date may not be indicative
of
net sales for any succeeding period. Some customers have experienced delays
in
their expected product launch schedules due to their own product development
delays not directly related to our microdisplays, such as development of custom
optics or other aspects of their end product, or by delays in government
programs contracted to them.
12
Research
and
Development
Near-to-the-eye
virtual imaging and OLED technology are relatively new technologies that have
considerable room for substantial improvements in luminance, life, power
efficiency, voltage swing, design compactness, field of view, optical range
of
visibility, headtracking options, wireless control and many other parameters.
We
also anticipate that achieving reductions in manufacturing costs will require
new technology developments. We anticipate that improving the performance,
capability and cost of our products will provide an important competitive
advantage in our fast moving, high technology marketplace. Past and current
research activities include development of improved OLED and display device
structures, developing and/or evaluating new materials (including the synthesis
of new organic molecules), manufacturing equipment and process development,
electronics design methodologies and new circuits and the development of new
lenses and related systems. In 2006, we spent approximately $4.4 million on
research and development. In 2006 we continued to research more efficient
materials and processes. We also completed the primary development of our new
smaller display the SVGA 3D shrink and our new visor products the X800 3DVisor
and the Eyebud 800, for which continued development efforts have been
discontinued until additional financial resources for these programs are
available.
External
relationships play an important role in our research and development efforts.
Suppliers, equipment vendors, government organizations, contract research
groups, external design companies, customer and corporate partners, consortia,
and university relationships all enhance the overall research and development
effort and bring us new ideas (See "Strategic Relationships").
The
FY
2007 Department of Defense Appropriations Bill provided funding for two
development programs managed by the US Army. The first aims to improve the
power-efficiency of OLED microdisplays for U.S. Army thermal imaging
applications, in cooperation with US Army NVESD (Night Vision and Electronic
Sensors Directorate). The second will result in a very high-resolution,
HD-compatible display for U.S. Army medical applications, in cooperation with
US
Army TATRC (Telemedicine and Advanced Technologies Research Center). The awards
totaled approximately $2.75 million to support the two projects for fiscal
year
2007, and provide resources for development of higher performance OLED
technology and higher resolution devices.
Manufacturing
Facilities
We
are
located at IBM's Microelectronics Division facility, known as the Hudson Valley
Research Park, located about 70 miles north of New York City in Hopewell
Junction, New York. We lease approximately 40,000 square feet of space housing
our own equipment for OLED microdisplay fabrication and for research and
development plus additional space for assembly and administrative offices.
We
also entered into lease agreement with IBM for a 16,300 square foot class 10
clean room space, along with additional, lower level clean room space.
Facilities
services provided by IBM include our clean room, pure gases, high purity
de-ionized water, compressed air, chilled water systems, and waste disposal
support. This infrastructure provided by our lease with IBM provides us with
many of the resources of a larger corporation without the added overhead costs.
It further allows us to focus our resources more efficiently on our product
development and manufacturing goals.
We
lease
additional non-clean room facilities for chemical mixing, cleaning, chemical
systems, and glass/silicon cutting. OLED chemicals can be purified in our
facility with our own equipment, permitting the company to evaluate new
chemicals in pilot production that are not yet available in suitable purity
for
OLED applications on the market.
Our
display fabrication process starts with the silicon wafer, which is manufactured
by a semiconductor foundry using conventional CMOS process. After a device
is
designed by a combination of internal and external designers with customer
participation, we outsource wafer fabrication.
Our
manufacturing process for OLED-on-silicon microdisplays has three main
components: organic film deposition, organic film encapsulation (also known
as
sealing), and color filter processing. All steps are performed in
semi-automated, hands-free environment suitable for high volume throughput.
An
automated cluster tool provides all OLED deposition steps in a highly controlled
environment that is the centerpiece of our OLED fabrication. After wafer
processing, each part is inspected using an automated inspection system, prior
to shipment. We have electrical and optical instrumentation required to
characterize the performance of our displays including photometric and color
coordinate analysis. We are also equipped for integrated circuit and electronics
design and display testing.
We
also
lease a facility in Bellevue, Washington where we operate our system development
effort and business development activities. The lease for this facility expires
in August of 2009. The facilities are well suited for designing and building
limited volume prototypes and small quantity industrial or government products.
Cables and electronic interfaces have recently been produced to permit our
OEM
customers to more rapidly create products and shorten their time-to-market.
We
plan to outsource medium to high volume subsystem production to low cost
plastics, lenses, and assembly manufacturers. We are currently using domestic
and international outside manufacturers and we are investigating new outsource
opportunities.
We
believe that manufacturing efficiency is an important factor for success in
the
consumer markets. We believe that high yield and maximum utilization of our
equipment set will be key for profitability. The equipment required for initial
profitable production is in place. Some equipment will be added when our
production volume increases or as needed.
13
Intellectual
Property
We
have
developed a significant intellectual property portfolio of patents, trade
secrets and know-how, supported by our license from Eastman Kodak and our
current patent portfolio.
Our
license from Eastman Kodak gives us the right to use in miniature displays
a
portfolio in organic light emitting diode and optics technology, some of which
are fundamental. Our agreement with Eastman Kodak provides for perpetual access
to the OLED technology for our OLED-on-silicon applications, provided we remain
active in the field and meet our contractual requirements to Eastman Kodak.
We
also generate intellectual property as a result of our internal research and
development activities.
Our
patents and patent applications cover a wide range of materials, device
structures, processes, and fabrication techniques, such as methods of
fabricating full color OLEDs. We believe that our patent applications relating
to up-emitting structures on opaque substrates such as silicon wafers, which
are
critical for OLED microdisplays, and applications relating to the hermetic
sealing of such structures are particularly important.
Our
patents are concentrated in the following areas:
· |
OLED
Materials, Structures, and Processes;
|
· |
Display
Color Processing and Sealing;
|
· |
Active
Matrix Circuit Methodologies and Designs;
|
· |
Field
Emission and General Display Technologies;
|
· |
Lenses
and Tracking (Eye and Head);
|
· |
Ergonomics
and Industrial Design; and
|
· |
Wearable
Computer Interface Methodology
|
We
also
rely on proprietary technology, trade secrets, and know-how, which are not
patented. To protect our rights in these areas, we require all employees, and
where appropriate, contractors, consultants, advisors and collaborators to
enter
into confidentiality and non-competition agreements. There can be no assurance,
however, that these agreements will provide meaningful protection for our trade
secrets, know-how or other proprietary information in the event of any
unauthorized use, misappropriation or disclosure of such trade secrets, know-how
or other proprietary information.
We
believe that our intellectual property portfolio, coupled with our strategic
relationships and accumulated experience in the OLED field, gives us an
advantage over potential competitors.
Competition
We
may
face competition in the OLED and microdisplay industry from a variety of
companies and technologies. We believe that our key competition will come from
liquid crystal on silicon microdisplays, or LCOS, also known as reflective
liquid crystal displays. While we believe that OLED-on-silicon provides
comparatively lower optics cost, larger apparent image size, reduced electronics
cost and complexity, enhanced color, and improved power efficiency advantages
over liquid crystal on silicon microdisplays, there is no assurance that these
benefits will be realized or that liquid crystal on silicon manufacturers will
not suitably improve these parameters. Companies pursuing liquid crystal on
silicon technology include Microdisplay Corporation and Syntax/Brillian
Corporation, among others, although most of the companies are primarily focusing
on projection microdisplays, which do not compete directly with us. In certain
markets, we may also face competition from developers of transmissive liquid
crystal displays, such as those developed by Kopin, or laser scanning systems,
such as those developed by Microvision Corporation.
To
our
knowledge, the only other company that has publicly stated plans to develop
OLED
microdisplays for near-eye applications is MicroEmissive Displays in Britain.
We
may also compete with potential licensees of Universal Display Corporation
and
Cambridge Display Corporation, each of which license OLED technology portfolios.
Even though we could potentially license technology from these developers,
potential competitors could also obtain such licenses and may do so at more
favorable royalty rates. However, should they decide to embark on developing
microdisplays on silicon, we believe that our progress to date in this area
gives us a substantial head start.
14
Employees
As
of
March 16, 2007, we had a total of 67 full time and part time staff. None of
our
employees are represented by a labor union. We have not experienced any work
stoppages and consider our relations with our employees to be good.

Park was appointed Interim CEO and President in January 2007. He served as
executive vice president of International Operations since 1998 and as president
of eMagin's subsidiary, Virtual Vision, Inc., from 2002 to 2004. Earlier, with
LG Electronics as an executive vice president and member of the Board, he built
up LG's business in LCDs and PDPs, solidifying their world leadership position
in flat-panel display products. At IBM, he managed flat panel display and
semiconductor programs at the Watson Research Center; then served as director

ITEM
1A. RISK FACTORS
You
should carefully consider the following risk factors and the other information
included herein as well as the information included in other reports and filings
made with the SEC before investing in our common stock. If any of the following
risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of
operations could be harmed. The trading price of our common stock could decline
due to any of these risks, and you may lose part or all of your investment.
RISKS
RELATED TO OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS
We
have a history of losses since our inception and may incur losses for the
foreseeable future.
Our
accumulated losses are $181million as of December 31, 2006. We have not yet
achieved profitability and we can give no assurances that we will achieve
profitability within the foreseeable future as we fund operating and capital
expenditures in areas such as establishment and expansion of markets, sales
and
marketing, operating equipment and research and development. We cannot assure
investors that we will ever achieve or sustain profitability or that our
operating losses will not increase in the future.
We
may not be able to execute our business plan and may not generate cash from
operations.
As
we
have reported, our business is currently experiencing significant revenue growth
during the year ended December 31, 2006. We anticipate that our cash
requirements to fund these requirements as well as other operating or investing
cash requirements over the next twelve months will be greater than our current
cash on hand. In
the
event that cash flow from operations is less than anticipated and we are unable
to secure additional funding to cover our expenses, in order to preserve cash,
we would be required to reduce expenditures and effect reductions in our
corporate infrastructure, either of which could have a material adverse effect
on our ability to continue our current level of operations. We
do not
currently have any financing commitments and no assurance can be given that
additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on acceptable
terms. If
we are
unable to obtain sufficient funds during the next twelve months we will further
reduce the size of our organization and may be forced to reduce and/or curtail
our production and operations, all of which could have a material adverse impact
on our business prospects.
Our
independent registered public accounting firm has expressed doubt about our
ability to continue as a going concern, which may hinder our ability to obtain
future financing.
Our
consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2006 have been prepared
under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern for the year
ending December 31, 2007. Our independent registered public accounting firm
has
issued a report dated March 27, 2007 that included an explanatory paragraph
expressing substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a going concern
without additional capital becoming available. Our
ability to continue as a going concern ultimately is dependent on our ability
to
generate a profit which is likely dependant upon our ability to obtain
additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiencies
and,
ultimately, to achieve profitable operations. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
RISKS
RELATED TO MANUFACTURING
The
manufacture of OLED-on-silicon
is new and OLED
microdisplays have not been produced in significant quantities.
If
we are
unable to produce our products in sufficient quantity, we will be unable to
maintain and attract new customers. In addition, we cannot assure you that
once
we commence volume production we will attain yields at high throughput that
will
result in profitable gross margins or that we will not experience manufacturing
problems which could result in delays in delivery of orders or product
introductions.
We
are dependent on a single manufacturing line.
We
currently manufacture our products on a single manufacturing line. If we
experience any significant disruption in the operation of our manufacturing
facility or a serious failure of a critical piece of equipment, we may be unable
to supply microdisplays to our customers. For this reason, some OEMs may also
be
reluctant to commit a broad line of products to our microdisplays without a
second production facility in place. However, we try to maintain product
inventory to fill the requirements under such circumstances. Interruptions
in
our manufacturing could be caused by manufacturing equipment problems, the
introduction of new equipment into the manufacturing process or delays in the
delivery of new manufacturing equipment. Lead-time for delivery of manufacturing
equipment can be extensive. No assurance can be given that we will not lose
potential sales or be unable to meet production orders due to production
interruptions in our manufacturing line. In order to meet the requirements
of
certain OEMs for multiple manufacturing sites, we will have to expend capital
to
secure additional sites and may not be able to manage multiple sites
successfully.
16
We
could experience manufacturing interruptions, delays, or inefficiencies if
we
are unable to timely and reliably procure components from single-sourced
suppliers.
We
maintain several single-source supplier relationships, either because
alternative sources are not available or the relationship is advantageous due
to
performance, quality, support, delivery, capacity, or price considerations.
If
the supply of a critical single-source material or component is delayed or
curtailed, we may not be able to ship the related product in desired quantities
and in a timely manner. Even where alternative sources of supply are available,
qualification of the alternative suppliers and establishment of reliable
supplies could result in delays and a possible loss of sales, which could harm
operating results.
We
expect to depend on semiconductor contract manufacturers to supply our silicon
integrated circuits and other suppliers of key components, materials and
services.
We
do not
manufacture the silicon integrated circuits on which we incorporate our OLED
technology. Instead, we expect to provide the design layouts to semiconductor
contract manufacturers who will manufacture the integrated circuits on silicon
wafers. We also expect to depend on suppliers of a variety of other components
and services, including circuit boards, graphic integrated circuits, passive
components, materials and chemicals, and equipment support. Our inability to
obtain sufficient quantities of high quality silicon integrated circuits or
other necessary components, materials or services on a timely basis could result
in manufacturing delays, increased costs and ultimately in reduced or delayed
sales or lost orders which could materially and adversely affect our operating
results.
RISKS
RELATED TO OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
We
rely on our license agreement with Eastman Kodak for the development of our
products.
We
rely
on our license agreement with Eastman Kodak for the development of our products,
and the termination of this license, Eastman Kodak's licensing of its OLED
technology to others for microdisplay applications, or the sublicensing by
Eastman Kodak of our OLED technology to third parties, could have a material
adverse impact on our business.
Our
principal products under development utilize OLED technology that we license
from Eastman Kodak. We rely upon Eastman Kodak to protect and enforce key
patents held by Eastman Kodak, relating to OLED display technology. Eastman
Kodak's patents expire at various times in the future. Our license with Eastman
Kodak could terminate if we fail to perform any material term or covenant under
the license agreement. Since our license from Eastman Kodak is non-exclusive,
Eastman Kodak could also elect to become a competitor itself or to license
OLED
technology for microdisplay applications to others who have the potential to
compete with us. The occurrence of any of these events could have a material
adverse impact on our business.
We
may not be successful in protecting our intellectual property and proprietary
rights.
We
rely
on a combination of patents, trade secret protection, licensing agreements
and
other arrangements to establish and protect our proprietary technologies. If
we
fail to successfully enforce our intellectual property rights, our competitive
position could suffer, which could harm our operating results. Patents may
not
be issued for our current patent applications, third parties may challenge,
invalidate or circumvent any patent issued to us, unauthorized parties could
obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary despite our efforts
to
protect our proprietary rights, rights granted under patents issued to us may
not afford us any competitive advantage, others may independently develop
similar technology or design around our patents, our technology may be available
to licensees of Eastman Kodak, and protection of our intellectual property
rights may be limited in certain foreign countries. We may be required to expend
significant resources to monitor and police our intellectual property rights.
Any future infringement or other claims or prosecutions related to our
intellectual property could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Any
such claims, with or without merit, could be time consuming to defend, result
in
costly litigation, divert management's attention and resources, or require
us to
enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Such royalty or licensing
agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us, if
at
all. Protection of intellectual property has historically been a large yearly
expense for eMagin. We have not been in a financial position to properly protect
all of our intellectual property, and may not be in a position to properly
protect our position or stay ahead of competition in new research and the
protecting of the resulting intellectual property.
RISKS
RELATED TO THE MICRODISPLAY INDUSTRY
The
commercial success of the microdisplay industry depends on the widespread market
acceptance of microdisplay systems products.
The
market for microdisplays is emerging. Our success will depend on consumer
acceptance of microdisplays as well as the success of the commercialization
of
the microdisplay market. As an OEM supplier, our customer's products must also
be well accepted. At present, it is difficult to assess or predict with any
assurance the potential size, timing and viability of market opportunities
for
our technology in this market. The viewfinder microdisplay market sector is
well
established with entrenched competitors with whom we must compete.
17
The
microdisplay systems business is intensely competitive.
We
do
business in intensely competitive markets that are characterized by rapid
technological change, changes in market requirements and competition from both
other suppliers and our potential OEM customers. Such markets are typically
characterized by price erosion. This intense competition could result in pricing
pressures, lower sales, reduced margins, and lower market share. Our ability
to
compete successfully will depend on a number of factors, both within and outside
our control. We expect these factors to include the following:
· |
our
success in designing, manufacturing and delivering expected new products,
including those implementing new technologies on a timely basis;
|
· |
our
ability to address the needs of our customers and the quality of
our
customer services;
|
· |
the
quality, performance, reliability, features, ease of use and pricing
of
our products;
|
· |
successful
expansion of our manufacturing capabilities;
|
· |
our
efficiency of production, and ability to manufacture and ship products
on
time;
|
· |
the
rate at which original equipment manufacturing customers incorporate
our
product solutions into their own products;
|
· |
the
market acceptance of our customers' products; and
|
· |
product
or technology introductions by our competitors.
|
Our
competitive position could be damaged if one or more potential OEM customers
decide to manufacture their own microdisplays, using OLED or alternate
technologies. In addition, our customers may be reluctant to rely on a
relatively small company such as eMagin for a critical component. We cannot
assure you that we will be able to compete successfully against current and
future competition, and the failure to do so would have a materially adverse
effect upon our business, operating results and financial condition.
The
display industry is cyclical.
The
display industry is characterized by fabrication facilities that require large
capital expenditures and long lead times for supplies and the subsequent
processing time, leading to frequent mismatches between supply and demand.
The
OLED microdisplay sector may experience overcapacity if and when all of the
facilities presently in the planning stage come on line leading to a difficult
market in which to sell our products.
Competing
products may get to market sooner than ours.
Our
competitors are investing substantial resources in the development and
manufacture of microdisplay systems using alternative technologies such as
reflective liquid crystal displays (LCDs), LCD-on-Silicon ("LCOS")
microdisplays, active matrix electroluminescence and scanning image systems,
and
transmissive active matrix LCDs. Our competitive position could be damaged
if
one or more of our competitors’ products get to the market sooner than our
products. We cannot assure you that our product will get to market ahead of
our
competitors or that we will be able to compete successfully against current
and
future competition. The failure to do so would have a materially adverse effect
upon our business, operating results and financial condition.
Our
competitors have many advantages over us.
As
the
microdisplay market develops, we expect to experience intense competition from
numerous domestic and foreign companies including well-established corporations
possessing worldwide manufacturing and production facilities, greater name
recognition, larger retail bases and significantly greater financial, technical,
and marketing resources than us, as well as from emerging companies attempting
to obtain a share of the various markets in which our microdisplay products
have
the potential to compete. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete
successfully against current and future competition, and the failure to do
so
would have a materially adverse effect upon our business, operating results
and
financial condition.
18
Our
products are subject to lengthy OEM development periods.
We
plan
to sell most of our microdisplays to OEMs who will incorporate them into
products they sell. OEMs determine during their product development phase
whether they will incorporate our products. The time elapsed between initial
sampling of our products by OEMs, the custom design of our products to meet
specific OEM product requirements, and the ultimate incorporation of our
products into OEM consumer products is significant. If our products fail to
meet
our OEM customers' cost, performance or technical requirements or if unexpected
technical challenges arise in the integration of our products into OEM consumer
products, our operating results could be significantly and adversely affected.
Long delays in achieving customer qualification and incorporation of our
products could adversely affect our business.
Our
products will likely experience rapidly declining unit prices.
In
the
markets in which we expect to compete, prices of established products tend
to
decline significantly over time. In order to maintain our profit margins over
the long term, we believe that we will need to continuously develop product
enhancements and new technologies that will either slow price declines of our
products or reduce the cost of producing and delivering our products. While
we
anticipate many opportunities to reduce production costs over time, there can
be
no assurance that these cost reduction plans will be successful nor is there
any
assurance that our costs can be reduced as quickly as any reduction in unit
prices. We may also attempt to offset the anticipated decrease in our average
selling price by introducing new products, increasing our sales volumes or
adjusting our product mix. If we fail to do so, our results of operations would
be materially and adversely affected.
RISKS
RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
Our
success depends on attracting and retaining highly skilled and qualified
technical and consulting personnel.
We
must
hire highly skilled technical personnel as employees and as independent
contractors in order to develop our products. The competition for skilled
technical employees is intense and we may not be able to retain or recruit
such
personnel. We must compete with companies that possess greater financial and
other resources than we do, and that may be more attractive to potential
employees and contractors. To be competitive, we may have to increase the
compensation, bonuses, stock options and other fringe benefits offered to
employees in order to attract and retain such personnel. The costs of retaining
or attracting new personnel may have a materially adverse affect on our business
and our operating results. In addition, difficulties in hiring and retaining
technical personnel could delay the implementation of our business plan.
Our
success depends in a large part on the continuing service of key personnel.
Changes
in management could have an adverse effect on our business. We are dependent
upon the active participation of several key management personnel and will
also
need to recruit additional management in order to expand according to our
business plan. The failure to attract and retain additional management or
personnel could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and
financial performance.
Our
business depends on new products and technologies.
The
market for our products is characterized by rapid changes in product, design
and
manufacturing process technologies. Our success depends to a large extent on
our
ability to develop and manufacture new products and technologies to match the
varying requirements of different customers in order to establish a competitive
position and become profitable. Furthermore, we must adopt our products and
processes to technological changes and emerging industry standards and practices
on a cost-effective and timely basis. Our failure to accomplish any of the
above
could harm our business and operating results.
We
generally do not have long-term contracts with our customers.
Our
business has primarily operated on the basis of short-term purchase orders.
We
are now receiving longer term purchase agreements, such as those which comprise
our approximately $6.1 million backlog, and procurement contracts, but we cannot
guarantee that we will continue to do so. Our current purchase agreements can
be
cancelled or revised without penalty, depending on the circumstances. We plan
production on the basis of internally generated forecasts of demand, which
makes
it difficult to accurately forecast revenues. If we fail to accurately forecast
operating results, our business may suffer and the value of your investment
in
eMagin may decline.
Our
business strategy may fail if we cannot continue to form strategic relationships
with companies that manufacture and use products that could incorporate our
OLED-on-silicon technology.
Our
prospects will be significantly affected by our ability to develop strategic
alliances with OEMs for incorporation of our OLED-on-silicon technology into
their products. While we intend to continue to establish strategic relationships
with manufacturers of electronic consumer products, personal computers,
chipmakers, lens makers, equipment makers, material suppliers and/or systems
assemblers, there is no assurance that we will be able to continue to establish
and maintain strategic relationships on commercially acceptable terms, or that
the alliances we do enter in to will realize their objectives. Failure to do
so
would have a material adverse effect on our business.
19
Our
business depends to some extent on international transactions.
We
purchase needed materials from companies located abroad and may be adversely
affected by political and currency risk, as well as the additional costs of
doing business with a foreign entity. Some customers in other countries have
longer receivable periods or warranty periods. In addition, many of the OEMs
that are the most likely long-term purchasers of our microdisplays are located
abroad exposing us to additional political and currency risk. We may find it
necessary to locate manufacturing facilities abroad to be closer to our
customers which could expose us to various risks, including management of a
multi-national organization, the complexities of complying with foreign laws
and
customs, political instability and the complexities of taxation in multiple
jurisdictions.
Our
business may expose us to product liability claims.
Our
business may expose us to potential product liability claims. Although no such
claims have been brought against us to date, and to our knowledge no such claim
is threatened or likely, we may face liability to product users for damages
resulting from the faulty design or manufacture of our products. While we plan
to maintain product liability insurance coverage, there can be no assurance
that
product liability claims will not exceed coverage limits, fall outside the
scope
of such coverage, or that such insurance will continue to be available at
commercially reasonable rates, if at all.
Our
business is subject to environmental regulations and possible liability arising
from potential employee claims of exposure to harmful substances used in the
development and manufacture of our products.
We
are
subject to various governmental regulations related to toxic, volatile,
experimental and other hazardous chemicals used in our design and manufacturing
process. Our failure to comply with these regulations could result in the
imposition of fines or in the suspension or cessation of our operations.
Compliance with these regulations could require us to acquire costly equipment
or to incur other significant expenses. We develop, evaluate and utilize new
chemical compounds in the manufacture of our products. While we attempt to
ensure that our employees are protected from exposure to hazardous materials,
we
cannot assure you that potentially harmful exposure will not occur or that
we
will not be liable to employees as a result.
RISKS
RELATED TO OUR STOCK
The
substantial number of shares that are or will be eligible for sale could cause
our common stock price to decline even if eMagin is successful.
Sales
of
significant amounts of common stock in the public market, or the perception
that
such sales may occur, could materially affect the market price of our common
stock. These sales might also make it more difficult for us to sell equity
or
equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem
appropriate. As of March 16, 2007, we have outstanding (i) options to purchase
1,065,745 shares and (ii) warrants to purchase 3,548,174 shares of common stock.
We
have a staggered board of directors and other anti-takeover provisions, which
could inhibit potential investors or delay or prevent a change of control that
may favor you.
Our
Board
of Directors is divided into three classes and our Board members are elected
for
terms that are staggered. This could discourage the efforts by others to obtain
control of eMagin. Some of the provisions of our certificate of incorporation,
our bylaws and Delaware law could, together or separately, discourage potential
acquisition proposals or delay or prevent a change in control. In particular,
our board of directors is authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of
preferred stock (less any outstanding shares of preferred stock) with rights
and
privileges that might be senior to our common stock, without the consent of
the
holders of the common stock.
ITEM
1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
None.
Our
corporate offices are located in Bellevue, Washington. Our Washington location
includes administrative, finance, operations, research and development and
sales
and marketing functions and consists of leased space of approximately 19,000

Introduction
The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements
and Notes thereto. Our fiscal year ends December 31. This document contains
certain forward-looking statements including, among others, anticipated trends
in our financial condition and results of operations and our business strategy.
(See Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors "). These forward-looking statements are
based largely on our current expectations and are subject to a number of risks
and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from these
forward-looking statements. Important factors to consider in evaluating such
forward-looking statements include (i) changes in external factors or in our
internal budgeting process which might impact trends in our results of
operations; (ii) unanticipated working capital or other cash requirements;
(iii)
changes in our business strategy or an inability to execute our strategy due
to
unanticipated changes in the industries in which we operate; and (iv) various
competitive market factors that may prevent us from competing successfully
in
the marketplace.
Overview
We
design
and manufacture miniature displays, which we refer to as
OLED-on-silicon-microdisplays, and microdisplay modules for virtual imaging,
primarily for incorporation into the products of other manufacturers.
Microdisplays are typically smaller than many postage stamps, but when viewed
through a magnifier they can contain all of the information appearing on a
high-resolution personal computer screen. Our microdisplays use organic light
emitting diodes, or OLEDs, which emit light themselves when a current is passed
through the device. Our technology permits OLEDs to be coated onto silicon
chips
to produce high resolution OLED-on-silicon microdisplays.
We
believe that our OLED-on-silicon microdisplays offer a number of advantages
in
near to the eye applications over other current microdisplay technologies,
including lower power requirements, less weight, fast video speed without
flicker, and wider viewing angles. In addition, many computer and video
electronic system functions can be built directly into the OLED-on-silicon
microdisplay, resulting in compact systems with lower expected overall system
costs relative to alternate microdisplay technologies.
Since
our
inception in 1996 through 2004, we derived the majority of our revenues from
fees paid to us under research and development contracts, primarily with the
U.S. federal government. We have devoted significant resources to the
development and commercial launch of our products. We commenced limited initial
sales of our SVGA+ microdisplay in May 2001 and commenced shipping samples
of
our SVGA-3D microdisplay in February 2002. From inception to December 31, 2006,
we have recognized an aggregate of approximately $19.5 million from sales of
our
products, and as of December 31, 2006, we have a backlog of approximately $6.1
million in products ordered for delivery through December 31, 2007. These
products are being applied or considered for near-eye and headset applications
in products such as entertainment and gaming headsets, handheld Internet and
telecommunication appliances, viewfinders, and wearable computers to be
manufactured by original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customers. We have also
shipped a limited number of our Z800 3DVisor personal display systems. In
addition to marketing OLED-on-silicon microdisplays as components, we also
offer
microdisplays as an integrated package, which we call Microviewer that includes
a compact lens for viewing the microdisplay and electronic interfaces to convert
the signal from our customer's product into a viewable image on the
microdisplay. Through our operations in Washington State we are also developing
head-wearable displays that incorporate our Microviewer.
We
license our core OLED technology from Eastman Kodak and we have developed our
own technology to create high performance OLED-on-silicon microdisplays and
related optical systems. We believe our technology licensing agreement with
Eastman Kodak, coupled with our own intellectual property portfolio, gives
us a
leadership position in OLED and OLED-on-silicon microdisplay technology. We
believe that we are the only company to demonstrate publicly and market
full-color small molecule OLED-on-silicon microdisplays.
Company
History
Historically,
we have been a developmental stage company. As of January 1, 2003, we were
no
longer classified as a development stage company. We have transitioned to
manufacturing our product and intend to significantly increase our marketing,
sales, and research and development efforts, and expand our operating
infrastructure. Currently, most of our operating expenses are fixed. If we
are
unable to generate significant revenues, our net losses in any given period
could be greater than expected.
23
Critical
Accounting Policies
The
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") defines "critical accounting
policies" as those that require application of management's most difficult,
subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates
about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in
subsequent periods. Not all of the accounting policies require management to
make difficult, subjective or complex judgments or estimates. However, the
following policies could be deemed to be critical within the SEC definition.
Revenue
and Cost Recognition
Revenue
on product sales is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement
exists, such as when a purchase order or contract is received from the customer,
the price is fixed, title and risk of loss to the goods has changed and there
is
a reasonable assurance of collection of the sales proceeds. We obtain written
purchase authorizations from our customers for a specified amount of product
at
a specified price and consider delivery to have occurred at the time of
shipment. We record a reserve for estimated sales returns, which is reflected
as
a reduction of revenue at the time of revenue recognition. Products sold
directly to consumers have a fifteen day right of return. Revenue on consumer
products is deferred until the right of return has expired.
Revenues
from research and development activities relating to firm fixed-price contracts
are generally recognized on the percentage-of-completion method of accounting
as
costs are incurred (cost-to-cost basis). Revenues from research and development
activities relating to cost-plus-fee contracts include costs incurred plus
a
portion of estimated fees or profits based on the relationship of costs incurred
to total estimated costs. Contract costs include all direct material and labor
costs and an allocation of allowable indirect costs as defined by each contract,
as periodically adjusted to reflect revised agreed upon rates. These rates
are
subject to audit by the other party.
Use
of estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and
the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These
estimates and assumptions relate to recording net revenue, collectibility of
accounts receivable, useful lives and impairment of tangible and intangible
assets, accruals, income taxes, inventory realization and other factors.
Management has exercised reasonable judgment in deriving these estimates.
Consequently, a change in conditions could affect these estimates.
Fair
value of financial instruments
eMagin’s
cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, short-term investments and accounts
payable are stated at cost which appropriates fair value due to the short-term
nature of these instruments.
Stock-based
Compensation
eMagin
maintains several stock equity incentive plans. The 2005 Employee Stock Purchase
Plan (the “ESPP”) provides our employees with the opportunity to purchase common
stock through payroll deductions. Employees purchase stock semi-annually at
a
price that is 85% of the fair market value at certain plan-defined dates. As
of
December 31, 2006, the number of shares of common stock available for issuance
was 150,000. As of December 31, 2006, the plan had not been
implemented.
The
2003
Stock Option Plan (the”2003 Plan”) provides for grants of shares of common stock
and options to purchase shares of common stock to employees, officers, directors
and consultants. Under the 2003 plan, an ISO grant is granted at the market
value of our common stock at the date of the grant and a non-ISO is granted
at a
price not to be less than 85% of the market value of the common stock. These
options have a term of up to 10 years and vest over a schedule determined by
the
Board of Directors, generally over a five year period. The amended 2003 Plan
provides for an annual increase of 3% of the diluted shares outstanding on
January 1 of each year for a period of 9 years which commenced January 1, 2005.
On
January 1, 2006, we adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards
Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment”, and (“SFAS No.
123R”), which requires us to recognize expense related to the fair value of our
share-based compensation issued to employees and directors. Prior to the January
1, 2006, we accounted for share-based compensation under the recognition and
measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25
("APB No. 25"), “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”,
and related interpretations, as permitted by FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation" (“SFAS No. 123”). In accordance with APB No. 25,
no compensation cost was required to be recognized for options granted that
had
an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock
on
the date of grant.
24
We
adopted SFAS No. 123R using the modified prospective transition method and
consequently have not retroactively adjusted results for prior periods. Under
this transition method, compensation cost associated with stock options
includes: a) compensation cost for all share-based compensation granted prior
to, but not vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value
estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No.123 and b) compensation
cost for all share-based compensation granted beginning January 1, 2006, based
on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original
provisions of SFAS No.123R. We use the straight-line method for recognizing
compensation expense. Compensation expense for awards under SFAS 123R includes
an estimate for forfeitures.

Revenues
Revenues
increased by approximately $4.5 million to a total of approximately $8.2 million
for the year ended December 31, 2006 from approximately $3.7 million for the
year ended December 31, 2005, representing an increase of 118%. This increase
was due to increased microdisplay demand and the broadening of our product
revenue through the sales of the Z800 3D Visor. Our contract revenue increased
approximately $150 thousand while our product revenue increased approximately
$4.3 million. Average price per unit for microdisplays was $386 in 2006 and
$372
in 2005. Our current expectation is that revenue will continue to grow in 2007
if we successfully execute our business plan.
Cost
of Goods Sold
Cost
of
goods sold includes direct and indirect costs associated with production of
our
products. Cost of goods sold for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005
was
approximately $11.4 million and approximately $10.2, respectively, an increase
of $1.2 million. The gross loss was approximately ($3.2) million and
approximately ($6.5) million, respectively, for the years ended December 31,
2006 and 2005, respectively. The gross loss was (39%) for the year ended
December 31, 2006 as compared to (173%) for the year ended December 31, 2005.
The increase in cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2006 was
attributed to higher materials usage to support increased production as well
as
approximately $343 thousand of stock compensation expense reflected in
accordance with SFAS No. 123R in 2006.
The
decrease in gross loss was attributed to fuller utilization of our fixed
production overhead due to higher unit volume.
We
expect that gross margins will improve in 2007 as a result of continued leverage
of our production overhead as volumes and revenue increase.
Research
and Development Expenses
Research
and development expenses included salaries, development materials and other
costs specifically allocated to the development of new microdisplay products,
OLED materials and subsystems. Research and development expenses for the year
ended December 31, 2006 were approximately $4.4 million as compared to
approximately $4.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase
was primarily due to the stock-based compensation expense of approximately
$435
thousand in 2006.
25
Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses
Selling,
general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and fees
for
professional services, legal fees incurred in connection with patent filings
and
related matters, as well as other marketing and administrative expenses. General
and administrative expenses increased by approximately $2.9 million to a total
of approximately $8.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $6.3
million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase in selling, general
and administrative expenses was due primarily to stock-based compensation
expense of approximately $2.9 million and an increase in marketing expenses
related to our Z800 3DVisor.
Other
Income (Expense)
Other
income, net consists primarily of interest income earned on investments,
interest expense related to the secured debentures, and gain from the change
in
the derivative liability. For the year ended December 31, 2006, interest income
was approximately $92 thousand as compared to approximately $210 thousand for
the year ended December 31, 2005. The decrease in interest income was primarily
a result of lower cash balances available for investment. For the year ended
December 31, 2006, interest expense was approximately $1.3 million as compared
to approximately $4 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase
in the interest expense was a result of interest associated with our notes
payable of approximately $124 thousand, the amortization of the deferred costs
associated with the notes payable of approximately $221 thousand, and the
amortization of the debt discount of approximately $956 thousand. For the year
ended December 31, 2006, income from the change in the derivative liability
was
approximately $2.4 million as compared to $0 for the year ended December 31,
2005.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We
do not
have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have
a
current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of
operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.
Year
Ended December 31, 2005 Compared to Year Ended December 31,
2004
Revenues
Revenues
increased by approximately $152 thousand to a total of approximately $3.7
million for the year ended December 31, 2005 from approximately $3.6 million
for
the year ended December 31, 2004, representing an increase of 4%. This increase
was due primarily to the broadening of our product offerings with the Z800
product and incremental revenue generated by these sales. Our contract revenue
decreased approximately $72 thousand while our product revenue increased
approximately $217 thousand. Average price per unit for microdisplays was $372
in 2005 and 2004.
Cost
of Goods Sold
Cost
of
goods sold includes direct and indirect costs associated with production of
our
products. In the year ended December 31, 2005 we recorded approximately $10.2
million in cost of goods sold which resulted in a gross loss of approximately
$6.5 million as compared to approximately $6.0 million in costs of goods sold
resulting in a gross loss of $2.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2004.
The production
expenses for 2005 include labor costs related to operating two full eight hour
shifts and a partial third shift as compared to a single shift in
2004. To accommodate longer operating hours and expected higher
product output in 2005 we initiated modifications to our production process
that resulted in less than 10% of our expected capacity while underway.
Stabilization of these modifications initially was expected to be completed
early in 2005, but took until the first quarter of 2006 to
achieve. As a result gross margins in 2005 declined as compared to
2004 due to the higher labor costs.
Research
and Development Expenses
Gross
research and development expenses increased by approximately $3.1 million to
a
total of $4.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 from approximately
$0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The approximately $3.1
million increase in R&D expenses for the year ended December 31, 2005
reflects efforts to develop two new microdisplays and three visor products.
Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses
Selling,
general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $2.0 million
to a
total of approximately $6.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 from
approximately $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase
in
selling, general and administrative expenses was due primarily to an increase
in
staff and personnel costs.
26
Other
Income (Expense)
Other
income, net, for 2005 was approximately $282 thousand and was comprised of
net
interest income of approximately $207 thousand; a gain on miscellaneous
equipment sales of approximately $38 thousand; and a gain on foreign exchange
of
approximately $37 thousand. Other expense, net, for 2004 was approximately
$5.0
million and was comprised of approximately $3.2 million of charges related
to
the value of the warrants issued to induce the holders of the approximately
$7.8
million in notes to agree to an early conversion of the notes into common stock;
approximately $1.6 million in charges related to the remaining unamortized
debt
discount and beneficial conversion feature associated with aforementioned notes;
and approximately $75 thousand in charges related to the write-off of the
remaining unamortized deferred financing costs.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We
do not
have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have
a
current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of
operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.
At
December 31, 2006, our principal source of liquidity was cash of $1.4 million.
For
the
year ended December 31, 2006, net cash used by operating activities was
approximately $10.4 million, primarily attributable to our net loss of
approximately $15.3 million. For the year ended December 31, 2005, net cash
used
by operating activities was approximately $15.7 million, primarily attributable
to our net loss of approximately $16.5 million.
For
the
year ended December 31, 2006, net cash used by investing activities was
approximately $257 thousand primarily related to purchases of equipment. Net
cash used by investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2005 was
approximately $1.1 million primarily related to equipment purchases..
Net
cash
provided by financing activities the year ended December 31, 2006 was
approximately $5.3 million and was comprised primarily of approximately $5.4
million in proceeds from debt issuance and offset by payments on long-term
debt
and capitalized lease obligations of approximately $55 thousand. Net cash
provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2005 was
approximately $10.1 million and was comprised primarily of approximately $8.4
million in proceeds from the sale of common stock and approximately 1.6 million
from the exercise of stock options and warrants.
Our
consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2006 have been prepared
under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern for the year
ending December 31, 2007. Our independent registered public accounting firm
has
issued a report dated March 27,
2007
that included an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt in our
ability to continue as a going concern without additional capital becoming
available. Our
ability to continue as a going concern ultimately is dependent on our ability
to
generate a profit which is likely dependant upon our ability to obtain
additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiencies
and,
ultimately, to achieve profitable operations. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
In
addition to the foregoing, as previously reported, we have retained CIBC World
Markets Corporation and Larkspur Capital Corporation to assist us in
investigating and evaluating various strategic alternatives, ranging from
investment to acquisition, in response to inquiries that we have
received.

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board
of
Directors and Stockholders
eMagin
Corporation
We
have
audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of eMagin Corporation
and
subsidiary (the "Company") as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity (deficit) and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on
our audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we
plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining,
on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In
our
opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the consolidated financial position of eMagin Corporation
and
subsidiary as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 and the consolidated results of
their operations and their consolidated cash flows for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated
financial statements, the Company has had recurring losses from operations
which
it believes will continue, has working capital and capital deficits at December
31, 2006. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are
also discussed in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
As
discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial
statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for stock-based
compensation effective January 1, 2006

eMAGIN
CORPORATION
NOTES
TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATMENTS
Note
1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS
eMagin
Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary (the “Company”) designs, develops,
manufactures, and markets virtual imaging products for consumer, commercial,
industrial and military applications. The Company’s products are sold mainly in
North America, Asia, and Europe,
Principles
of consolidation
The
accompanying audited consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of
eMagin Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Basis
of presentation
The
consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. The Company has had recurring losses
from operations which it believes will continue through in a foreseeable
future. The Company’s cash requirements over the next twelve months are
greater than the Company’s current cash on hand. At December 31, 2006, the
Company’s has working capital and shareholders’ deficits. These factors raise
substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern
without continuing to obtain additional funding. The
Company does not have commitments for such financing and no assurance can be
given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be
on
acceptable terms.
If the
Company is unable to obtain sufficient funds during the next twelve months,
the
Company will further reduce the size of its organization and/or curtail
operations which will have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business
prospects. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
On
November 3, 2006, the Company effected a one-for-ten (1-for-10) reverse stock
split of its issued and outstanding common stock. See Note 9 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements for a further discussion. All common share amounts and
per
share amounts in the accompanying financial statements and this Form 10-K have
been adjusted to reflect the 1-for-10 reverse stock split. The Company has
adjusted its shareholders’ equity accounts by reducing its stated capital and
increasing its additional paid-in capital by approximately $91 thousand as
of
December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 to reflect the reduction in outstanding shares
as a result of the reverse stock split.
Use
of estimates
In
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of
America, management utilizes certain estimates and assumptions that affect
the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates
and
judgments. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience
and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about
the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent
from
other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue
and cost recognition
Revenue
is recognized when products are shipped to customers, net of allowances for
anticipated returns. The Company’s revenue-earning
activities generally involve delivering products and revenues
are considered to be earned when the Company has completed the process
by which it is entitled to such revenues.
Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of
an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, selling price is
fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. The Company defers
revenue recognition on products sold directly to the consumer with a fifteen
day
right of return. Revenue is recognized upon the expiration of the right of
return.
The
Company also earns revenues from certain of eMagin's
R&D activities under
both firm fixed-price contracts and cost-type
contracts, including some cost-plus-fee contracts.
Revenues relating to firm fixed-price contracts are
generally recognized on the percentage-of-completion method
of accounting as costs are incurred (cost-to-cost basis).
Revenues on cost-plus-fee contracts include costs incurred plus a
portion of estimated fees or profits based on the relationship of costs incurred
to total estimated costs. Contract costs include all direct material and
labor costs and an allocation of allowable indirect costs as
defined by each contract, as periodically adjusted to reflect revised
agreed upon rates. These rates are subject to audit by the other party.
Amounts can be billed on a bi-monthly basis.
35
Research
and development expenses
Research
and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Cash
and cash equivalents
All
highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less
at
the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents.
Investments-held
to maturity
Securities
that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are
classified as held-to-maturity and are carried at amortized cost on the
accompanying balance sheet.
Accounts
receivable
The
majority of the Company’s commercial accounts receivable is due from Original
Equipment Manufacturers ("OEM’s”). Credit is extended based on evaluation of a
customers' financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required.
Accounts receivable are payable in U.S. dollars, are due within 30-90 days
and
are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful
accounts. Any account outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms
is
considered past due.
Allowance
for doubtful account
The
allowance for doubtful accounts reflects an estimate of probable losses inherent
in the accounts receivable balance. The allowance is determined based on a
variety of factors, including the length of time receivables are past due,
historical experience, the customer's current ability to pay its obligation,
and
the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company
will record a specific reserve for individual accounts when the Company becomes
aware of a customer's inability to meet its financial obligations, such as
in
the case of bankruptcy filings or deterioration in the customer's operating
results or financial position. If circumstances related to customers change,
the
Company would further adjust estimates of the recoverability of
receivables.
Inventory
Inventory
is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in
first-out method. Cost includes materials, labor, and manufacturing overhead
related to the purchase and production of inventories. The Company regularly
reviews inventory quantities on hand, future purchase commitments with the
Company’s suppliers, and the estimated utility of the inventory. If the Company
review indicates a reduction in utility below carrying value, the inventory
is
reduced to a new cost basis.
Equipment,
furniture and leasehold improvements
Equipment,
furniture and leasehold improvements are stated at cost. Depreciation on
equipment is calculated using the straight-line method of depreciation over
its
estimated useful life. Amortization of leasehold improvements is calculated
by
using the straight-line method over the shorter of their estimated useful lives
or lease terms. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense
as incurred.
In
accordance with SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets," the Company performs impairment tests on its long-lived
assets when circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be
recoverable. If required, recoverability is tested by comparing the estimated
future undiscounted cash flows of the asset or asset group to its carrying
value. Impairment losses, if any, are recognized based on the excess of the
assets' carrying amounts over their estimated fair values.
Intangible
Assets
The
Company’s intangible assets consist of patents that are amortized over their
estimated useful lives of fifteen years using the straight line method. Total
intangible amortization expense was approximately $4 thousand, $4 thousand,
and
$2 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004,
respectively.
36
Advertising
Costs
related to advertising and promotion of products is charges to sales and
marketing expense as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December
31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 were $296 thousand, $108 thousand, and $0,
respectively.
Income
taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“SFAS
No. 109”). SFAS No. 109 requires that the Company recognize deferred tax
liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that
have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this
method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined on the basis of
the
difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their respective
financial reporting amounts (“temporary differences”) at enacted tax rates in
effect for the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.
The Company records an estimated valuation allowance on its deferred income
tax
assets if it is not more than likely that these deferred income tax assets
will
be realized.
Loss
per common share
In
accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Basic Earnings Per Share", net loss per common
share amounts ("basic EPS") is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding and excluding any potential
dilution. Net loss per common share amounts assuming dilution ("diluted EPS")
reflects the potential dilution from the exercise of stock options and warrants.
These common equivalent shares have been excluded from the computation of
diluted EPS for all periods presented as their effect is antidilutive. The
years
ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004 do not include options and warrants
to
purchase 4,613,919, 4,424,988 and 3,517,739 respectively, of common equivalent
shares, as their effect would be antidilutive.
Comprehensive
income (loss)
SFAS
No.
130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", requires companies to report all changes
in equity during a period, except those resulting from investment by owners
and
distributions to owners, for the period in which they are recognized.
Comprehensive income (loss) is the total of net income (loss) and other
comprehensive income (loss) items, such as unrealized gains or losses on foreign
currency translation adjustments. Comprehensive income (loss) must be reported
on the face of the annual financial statements. The Company's operations did
not
give rise to any material items includable in comprehensive income (loss),
which
were not already in net loss for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and
2004. Accordingly, the Company's comprehensive loss is the same as its net
income (loss) for the periods presented.
Stock-based
compensation
On
January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123R,
“Share-Based Payment”, which requires the Company to recognize expense related
to the fair value of the Company’s share-based compensation issued to employees
and directors. Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for share-based
compensation under the recognition and measurement provisions of
APB No. 25 and related interpretations, as permitted by SFAS No. 123.
We adopted SFAS No. 123R using the modified prospective transition method.
Accordingly, periods prior to adoption have not been restated. Compensation
cost
recognized for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 includes a)
compensation cost for all share-based compensation granted prior to, but not
vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated
in
accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No.123 and b) compensation
cost
for all share-based compensation granted beginning January 1, 2006, based on
the
grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS
No.123R. The compensation cost was recognized using the straight-line
attribution method. See Note 10 for
a
further discussion on stock-based compensation.
At
December 31, 2006, the Company's cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable,
short-term investments and accounts payable are shown at cost which approximates
fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

On
July
21, 2006, the Company entered into several Note Purchase Agreements for the
sale
of approximately $5.99 million of senior secured debentures (the “Notes”)
together with warrants to purchase approximately 1.8 million shares of common
stock, par value $.001 per share. 50% of the aggregate principal amount matures
on July 21, 2007 and the remaining 50% matures on January 21, 2008. The Notes
pay 6% per annum interest quarterly beginning September 1, 2006. Interest of
approximately $124 thousand was paid to investors in the year ended December
31,
2006.
38
The
Company accounted for the net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes as two
separate components: a detachable warrant component and a debt component.
The Company determined the relative fair value of warrants to be $3.4
million which was recorded
as
debt
discount, a reduction of the carrying value of the Notes. The following
assumptions were used to determine the fair value of the warrants:
Dividend
yield
|

|

%
|
||
Expected

|
122
|
%
|
||
Expected
term (in years)
|
5.0
years
|
|||
The
discount is being amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method
as it approximates the effective interest method over the term of the Notes.
For
the twelve months ended December 31, 2006, debt discount of $956 thousand was
amortized to interest expense. See
Note
9.
The
Notes
have specific terms that the Company must adhere to, i.e. maintaining minimum
cash and cash equivalent balances and trading its stock on specific Exchanges.
On March 9, 2007, the terms of the Note were amended to allow the Company to
trade its common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board and also requiring
the Company to maintain cash and cash equivalent balances of $200,000 from
February 26, 2007 through March 31, 2007. Subsequent to March 31, 2007, the
company must maintain cash and cash equivalent balances of $600,000. On March
12, 2007, the Company was suspended from trading on the AMEX and is currently
trading the Company’s common stock on the Over-The Counter Bulletin Board. The
delisting from the AMEX triggered a compliance condition on the notes payable.
As a result the Company is required to pay the noteholders monthly interest
at
1% on the outstanding principal of the notes payable. The Company received
a
waiver from the noteholders that allows the Company to accrue the interest
and
delay the interest payment until the earliest of the Company (i) completing
$2
million of debt or equity financing or (ii) the occurrence of a Repurchase
Event
per the note. On March 27, 2007, the cash and cash equivalents balances
requirement was amended to maintain cash and cash equivalents balances of
$200,000 from April 1, 2007 through May 15, 2007. Subsequent to May 15, 2007,
the Company must maintain $600,000 in cash and cash equivalent balances.
Note
7 - DEBT SETTLEMENT AND DEBT CONVERSION
In
February 2004, eMagin entered into an agreement whereby the holders of eMagin’s
Secured Convertible Notes (the "Notes"), which were due in November 2005, agreed
to an early conversion of all of the $7.8 million principal amount of the Notes,
together with the $.742 million of accrued interest on the Notes, into 1,139,462
shares of common stock of eMagin. On the date of the conversion the Company
recorded $1.6 million in interest expense related to the unamortized debt
discount and beneficial conversion feature and $75 thousand in interest expense
related to the write-off of deferred financing costs.
In
consideration of the Noteholders agreeing to the early conversion of the Notes,
eMagin issued the Noteholders warrants to purchase an aggregate of 250,000
shares of common stock (the "Warrants"), which Warrants are exercisable at
a
price of $27.60 per share. 150,000 of the Warrants, "D warrants", were
exercisable until December 31, 2005. The remaining 100,000 of the Warrants,
"E
warrants", are exercisable until June 10, 2008. Using the Black-Scholes method
of valuating warrants, an expense totaling $3.18 million was recorded in
interest expense in the first quarter of 2004 to record an estimated value
for
these warrants. The fair value of the warrants was estimated at $23.00 using
the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions for the two
sets of warrants: (1) average expected volatility of 100%, (2) average risk-free
interest rates of 3.52%, (3) dividends of 0%, and (4) Average Term (in days)
of
670 for the D warrants and 1,460 for the E warrants.

9 - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
Common
Stock
2006
At
the
Company’s 2006 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on October 20, 2006, the
Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s certificate of
incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding
common stock on a ratio of 1-for-10. On November 3, 2006, the reverse stock
split became effective. The Company has adjusted its shareholders’ equity
accounts by reducing its stated capital and increasing its additional paid-in
capital by approximately $91 thousand as of December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004
to
reflect the reduction in outstanding shares as a result of the reverse stock
split.
On
July
21, 2006, the Company entered into several Note Purchase Agreements for the
sale
of approximately $5.99 million of senior secured debentures (the “Notes”) and
warrants to purchase approximately 1.8 million shares of common stock, par
value
$.001 per share. The investors purchased $5.99 million principal amount of
Notes
with conversion prices of $2.60 per share that may convert into approximately
2.3 million shares of common stock and 5 year warrants exercisable at $3.60
per
share into approximately 1.6 million shares of common stock. If the Notes are
not converted, 50% of the principal amount will be due on July 21, 2007 and
the
remaining 50% will be due on January 21, 2008. Commencing September 1, 2006,
6%
interest is payable in quarterly installments on outstanding notes. For the
year
ended December 31, 2006, the Company paid approximately $124,000 of interest
to
investors. The Company received approximately $5.4 million, net of deferred
financing costs of approximately $0.6 million which are amortized over the
life
of the Notes. The Company amortized approximately $221 thousand of deferred
financing costs in 2006. For the year ended December 31, 2006, two note holders
converted their promissory notes valued at approximately $220 thousand and
were
issued an aggregate of approximately 85,000 shares.
An
additional $0.5 million was to be invested through the exercise of a warrant
to
purchase approximately 192,000 shares of common stock at $2.60 per share on
or
prior to December 14, 2006, or at the election of the Company, by the purchase
of additional Notes and warrants. The Company determined the relative fair
value
of the warrants to be approximately $157,000 which was recorded as an other
asset. The following assumptions were used to determine the fair value of the
warrant:
Dividend

The
investor elected not to exercise its warrants prior to December 14, 2006. The
fair value of the warrants which was recorded as an other asset was written
off
as a sales, general and administrative expense.
40
Under
EITF 00-19 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to and
Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock”, the fair value of the warrants,
$3.6 million, have been recorded as a liability since the warrant agreement
requires a potential net-cash settlement in the first year of the warrant
agreement if the registration statement is not effective. As of December 31,
2006, the registration statement is effective. The liability will be adjusted
to
fair value at each reporting period. The change in the fair value of the
warrants will be recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Operations as other
income (expense). For the twelve months ended December 31, 2006, the Company
recorded approximately $2.4 million of gain from the change in the fair value
of
the derivative liability.
In
connection with the Notes, a registration rights agreement was entered into
which requires the Company to file a registration statement for the resale
of
the common stock underlying the Notes and the warrants. The Company must use
its
best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective by the end
of
a specified grace period and also maintain the effectiveness of the registration
statement until all shares of common stock underlying the Notes and the warrants
have been sold or may be sold without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule
144(k) of the Securities Act. If the Company fails to have the registration
statement declared effective within the grace period or fails to maintain the
effectiveness as set forth in the preceding sentence, the Company is required
to
pay each investor cash payments equal to 1.0% of the aggregate purchase price
monthly until the failure is cured. If the Company fails to pay the liquidated
damages, interest at 16.0% will accrue until the liquidated damages are paid
in
full. The registration statement was filed and declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission within the specified grace period. As of
December 31, 2006, the registration statement remains effective.
The
Company accounts for the registration rights agreement as a separate
freestanding instrument and accounts for the liquidated damages provision as
a
derivative liability subject to SFAS 133. The estimated fair value of the
derviative liability is based on an estimate of the probability and costs of
cash penalties being incurred. The Company determined that the fair value of
the
liability was immaterial and it is not recorded in accrued liabilities. The
Company will revalue the potential liability at each balance sheet
date.
As
a
result of the issuance of the Notes, the outstanding 116,576 Series A Common
Stock Purchase Warrants, that were issued to certain accredited and/or
institutional investors pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement dated
January 9, 2004, were re-priced from $5.50 to $2.60 and the outstanding 650,001
Series F Common Stock Purchase Warrants, that were issued to certain accredited
and/or institutional investors pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement
dated October 25, 2004, were re-priced from $10.90 to $8.60.
For
the
year ended December 31, 2006, the Company received approximately $10,000 for
the
exercise of 5,000 options and there were no warrants exercised. For year ended
December 31, 2006, the Company issued approximately 254,000 shares of common
stock in lieu of cash payments in the amount of approximately $580,000 as
compensation for services rendered and to be rendered in the future.
The fair value of the services was measured at market value of the common stock
at the time of payment. As such, the Company recorded the fair value of the
services rendered in selling, general and administrative expenses in the
accompanying audited consolidated statement of operations for the year ended
December 31, 2006.
The
2004
Non-Employee Compensation Plan (the “2004 Plan”) was established to help the
Company retain consultants, professionals and service providers. The Board
of
Directors will select the recipient of the awards, the nature of the awards
and
the amount. At the 2006 Annual Shareholder meeting, the shareholders approved
an
increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock usable from 200,000
to 950,000. This number is subject to adjustment in the event of a
recapitalization, reorganization or similar event.
2005
On
October 20, 2005, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement,
pursuant to which the Company sold and issued 1,661,906 shares of common stock,
par value $0.001 per share, at a price of $5.50 per share and warrants to
purchase up to 997,143 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price
of
approximately $9.14 million. The net proceeds received after expenses were
approximately $8.4 million.
The
warrants are exercisable at a price of $10.00 per share and expire on April
20,
2011. Of the 997,143 warrants, 664,763 of the warrants are exercisable on or
after May 20, 2006. The remaining 332,381 are exercisable after March 31, 2007,
however these warrants will be cancelled if the Company’s net revenue for fiscal
year 2006 exceeds $20 million or if the investor has sold more than 25% of
the
shares purchased under the securities purchase agreement prior to December
31,
2006.
As
a
result of the above transaction, the outstanding 121,335 Series A Common Stock
Purchase Warrants, that were issued to participants of the Securities Purchase
Agreement dated January 9, 2004, were re-priced from $10.50 to $5.50 and the
outstanding 650,001 Series F Common Stock Purchase Warrants, that were issued
to
participants of the Securities Purchase Agreement dated October 25, 2004, were
re-priced from $12.10 to $10.90.
A
registration rights agreement was entered into in connection with the private
placement which requires the Company to file a registration statement for the
resale of the common stock and the shares underlying the warrants. The Company
must use its best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective
by the end of a specified grace period and also maintain the effectiveness
of
the registration statement until all common stock have been sold or may be
sold
without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act.
If
the Company fails to have the registration statement declared effective within
the grace period or fails to maintain the effectiveness, the agreement requires
the Company to pay each investor cash payments equal to 2.0% of the aggregate
purchase price monthly until the failure is cured. If the Company fails to
pay
the liquidated damages, interest at 15.0% will accrue until the liquidated
damages are paid in full. The registration statement was filed and declared
effective within the specified grace period. As of December 31, 2006, the
registration statement remains effective.
41
The
Company accounts for the registration rights agreement as a separate
freestanding instrument and accounts for the liquidated damages provision as
a
derivative liability subject to SFAS 133. The estimated fair value of the
liability is based on an estimate of the probability and costs of cash penalties
being incurred. The Company determined that the fair value of the liability
was
immaterial and it is not recorded in accrued liabilities. The Company will
revalue the potential liability at each balance sheet date.
In
2005,
the Company received approximately $1.6 million for the exercise of
approximately 11,100 options and 306,000 warrants. The Company also issued
approximately 54,300 shares of common stock for the payment of $461,000 of
services rendered and to be rendered in the future. The fair value of the
services was measured at market value of the common stock at the time of
payment. As such, the Company recorded the fair value of the services rendered
in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying audited
consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2005.
2004
On
January 9, 2004, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with
several accredited institutional and private investors whereby such investors
purchased an aggregate of 333,336 shares of common stock and 431,221 warrant
shares for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $4.2 million.
The
shares of common stock were priced at a 20% discount to the average closing
price of the stock from December 30, 2003 to January 6, 2004, which ranged
from
$13.80 to $19.40 per share during the period for an average closing price of
$12.60 per share. In addition, the investors received warrants to purchase
an
aggregate of 200,002 shares of common stock (subject to anti-dilution
adjustments) exercisable at a price of $17.40 per share for a period of five
(5)
years. The warrants were priced at a 10% premium to the average closing price
of
the stock for the pricing period.
In
connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement, eMagin also issued additional
warrants to the investors to acquire an aggregate of 231,219 shares of common
stock. 120,691 of such warrants are exercisable, within 6 months from the
effective date of the registration statement covering these securities, at
a
price of $17.40 per share (a 10% premium to the average closing price of the
stock for the pricing period), and 110,528 of such warrants are exercisable
within 12 months from the effective date of the registration statement covering
these securities, at a price of $19.00 per share (a 20% premium to the average
closing price of the stock for the pricing period).
The
Company also entered into a registration rights agreement with the
aforementioned investors with respect to the common stock issued and common
stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants. A registration rights
agreement was entered into in connection with the private placement which
requires the Company to file a registration statement for the resale of the
common stock and the shares underlying the warrants. The Company must use its
best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective by the end
of
a specified grace period and also maintain the effectiveness of the registration
statement until all common stock have been sold or may be sold without volume
restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act. If the Company
fails
to have the registration statement declared effective within the grace period
or
fails to maintain the effectiveness, the agreement requires the Company to
pay
each investor cash payments equal to 2.0% of the aggregate purchase price
monthly until the failure is cured. If the Company fails to pay the liquidated
damages, interest at 15.0% will accrue until the liquidated damages are paid
in
full. The registration statement was filed and declared effective within the
specified grace period. As of December 31, 2006, the registration statement
remains effective.
The
Company accounts for the registration rights agreement as a separate
freestanding instrument and accounts for the liquidated damages provision as
a
derivative liability subject o SFAS 133. The estimated fair value of the
liability is based on an estimate of the probability and costs of cash penalties
being incurred. The Company determined that the fair value of the liability
was
immaterial and it is not recorded in accrued liabilities. The Company will
revalue the potential liability at each balance sheet date.
In
February 2004, the Company and all of the holders of the Secured Convertible
Notes (the "Notes"), which were due in November 2005, entered into an agreement
whereby the holders agreed to an early conversion of 100% of the principal
amount of the Notes aggregating $7.825 million, together with all of the accrued
interest of approximately $742,000 on the Notes, into 1,139,462 shares of the
Company's common stock. The listing of the shares issuable pursuant to such
agreement was approved by the American Stock Exchange.
In
consideration of the Noteholders agreeing to the early conversion of the Notes,
eMagin agreed to issue the Noteholders warrants to purchase an aggregate of
250,000 shares of common stock (the "warrants"), which warrants are exercisable
at a price of $27.60 per share. 150,000 of the warrants (series D warrants)
are
exercisable until the later of (i) twelve (12) months from the date upon which
a
registration statement covering the shares issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or
(ii) December 31, 2005. The remaining 100,000 of the warrants (series E
warrants) are exercisable until June 10, 2008. Using the Black-Scholes method
of
valuating warrants, an expense totaling $3.18 million was recorded in interest
expense during 2004 to record an estimated fair value of these warrants. The
fair value of the warrants, $3.18 million, was estimated at $23.00 using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions for the two
sets of warrants: (1) average expected volatility of 100%, (2) average risk-free
interest rates of 3.52%, (3) dividends of 0%, and (4) Average Term (in days)
of
670 for the series D warrants and 1,460 for the series E warrants.
42
In
connection with the above conversion, eMagin also entered into a Registration
Rights Agreement with the holders of the Notes providing the holders with
certain registration rights under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with
respect to the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants.
In
August
2004, the Company and certain of the holders of its outstanding Class A, B
and C
common stock purchase warrants entered into an agreement pursuant to which
the
Company and the holders of the warrants agreed to the $9.00 re-pricing and
exercise of Class A, B and C common stock purchase warrants. As a condition
to
the transaction, the holders of the warrants agreed to limit the right of
participation that they were granted in January 9, 2004. As a result of the
transaction, the holders agreed to re-price and exercise approximately, 209,989
Class A, B and/or C common stock purchase warrants for an aggregate of
$1,889,900.
On
October 21, 2004, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement,
pursuant to which eMagin sold and issued 1,033,453 shares of common stock,
and
series F common stock warrants to purchase 512,976 of common stock for an
aggregate purchase price of $10,772,500. The common
stock was
priced at $10.50. The common stock and the shares underlying the warrants were
drawn-down off of a shelf registration statement which was filed by the Company
on May 5, 2004, and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission
on June 10, 2004. Net proceeds received after deducting expenses was
approximately $9.75 million.
The
Series F Warrants are exercisable from April 25, 2005 until April 25, 2010
at an
exercise price of $12.10 per share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence
of
specific events, including stock dividends, stock splits, combinations or
reclassifications of the Company’s common stock or distributions of cash or
other assets. In addition, the Series F Warrants contain provisions protecting
against dilution resulting from the sale of additional shares of the Company’s
common stock for less than the exercise price of the Series F Warrants, or
the
market price of the common stock, on the date of such issuance or sale.
On
October 28, 2004, eMagin entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, pursuant
to which eMagin sold and issued 274,048 shares of common stock, and series
F
common stock purchase warrants to purchase eMagin’s common stock to purchasers
for an aggregate purchase price of $2,877,500. The common stock was priced
at
$10.50. The common stock and the shares underlying the warrants were drawn-down
off of a shelf registration statement which was filed by us on May 5, 2004,
and
declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 10, 2004.
Net proceeds received after deducting expenses was approximately $2.65 million.
The
Series F Warrants are exercisable from April 25, 2005 until April 25, 2010
to
purchase up to 137,024 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $12.10
per
share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specific events, including
stock dividends, stock splits, combinations or reclassifications of eMagin’s
common stock or distributions of cash or other assets. In addition, the Series
F
Warrants contain provisions protecting against dilution resulting from the
sale
of additional shares of eMagin’s common stock for less than the exercise price
of the Series F Warrants, or the market price of the common stock, on the date
of such issuance or sale.
As
a
result of the above transaction, 121.335 outstanding Series A Common Stock
Purchase Warrants, that were issued to participants of the Securities Purchase
Agreement dated January 9, 2004, were re-priced from $17.40 to $10.50.
The
Company paid a Placement Agent $814,000, a fee equal to 6% of the gross proceeds
of these offerings.
In
addition, the Company engaged Larkspur Capital Corporation, a Related Party,
to
act as an adviser in connection with the sale of these securities. For such
services, the Company paid Larkspur Capital Corporation a fee of $136,500,
an
amount equal to 1% of the gross proceeds of these offerings and 9,326 warrants.
In
2004,
the Company received $5,173,945 for the exercise of 552,105 options and 353,335
warrants.
The
Company also issued 38,602 shares of common stock for the payment of $531,031
for services rendered and to be rendered in the future. The fair value of the
services was measured at market value of the common stock at the time of
payment. As such, the Company recorded the fair value of the services rendered
in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying audited
consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2004.
Note
10 - STOCK COMPENSATION
Employee
stock purchase plan
In
2005,
the stockholders approved the 2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”). The
ESPP provides the Company’s employees with the opportunity to purchase common
stock through payroll deductions. Employees purchase stock semi-annually at
a
price that is 85% of the fair market value at certain plan-defined dates. At
December 31, 2006, the number of shares of common stock available for issuance
was 150,000 and the plan will automatically increase 75,000 shares on January
1
of each year for a period of three years starting January 1, 2006. As of
December 31, 2006, the plan had not been implemented.
43
Incentive
compensation plans
In
1994,
the Company established the 1994 Stock Plan (the "1994 Plan"). The plan provided
for the granting of options to purchase an aggregate of 1,286,000 shares of
the
common stock to employees and consultants. This Plan expired in 2004.
In
2000,
the Company established the 2000 Stock Option Plan (the "2000 Plan"). The Plan
permits the granting of options and stock purchase rights to employees and
consultants of the Company. The 2000 Plan allows for the grant of incentive
stock options meeting the requirements of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986 (the "Code") or non-qualified stock options which are not intended
to meet such requirements.
In
2003,
the Company established the 2003 Stock Option Plan (the "2003 Plan"). The 2003
Plan provided for the granting of options to purchase an aggregate of 9,200,000
shares of the common stock to employees and consultants. On July 2, 2003, the
shareholders approved the plan and the 2003 Plan was subsequently amended by
the
Board of Directors on July 2, 2003 to reduce the number of additional shares
that may be provided for issuance under the "evergreen" provisions of the 2003
Plan. The amended 2003 Plan provides for an increase of 2,000,000 shares in
January 2004 and an annual increase on January 1 of each year for a period
of
nine (9) years commencing on January 1, 2005 of 3% of the diluted shares
outstanding. The shareholders approved an amendment to the 2003 Plan to provide
grants of shares of common stock in addition to options to purchase shares
of
common stock. In 2005, approximately 2.4 million shares were added to the plan.
Vesting
terms of the options range from immediate vesting to a ratable vesting period
of
5 years. Option activity for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004

The
aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the difference between
the exercise price of the underlying options and the quoted price of the
Company’s common stock for the options that were in-the-money. As of December
31, 2006 there were no options that were in-the-money. The Company’s closing
stock price was $1.04 as of December 31, 2006. The Company issues new shares
of
common stock upon exercise of stock options.
On
July
21, 2006, certain employees and Directors of the Company agreed to cancel
approximately 467,000 shares underlying existing stock options in return for
the
re-pricing of approximately 869,000 existing options at $2.60 per share having
a
weighted average original exercise price of $11.97. Option grants that have
not
been re-priced will remain unchanged. The unvested options which were re-priced
will continue to vest on original vesting schedules, but in no event vest prior
to January 19, 2007. Previously vested options which were re-priced will now
vest on January 19, 2007. Re-priced grants will be forfeited if the individual
leaves voluntarily. The Company has accounted for the re-pricing and
cancellation transactions as a modification under SFAS No. 123R. The Company
will recognize the additional compensation charges over the four months ended
January 19, 2007 for previously vested options and over the remaining vesting
period for unvested options. Incremental cost was $171 thousand and the amount
recognized in 2006 was $118 thousand, net of forfeitures.
At
the
Company’s 2006 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on October 20, 2006, the
Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of
Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding
common stock at an exchange ratio of one-for-ten. On November 3, 2006, the
reverse stock split became effective. Each holder of ten shares of the Company’s
common stock became the holder of one share of the Company’s common stock. In
addition, all outstanding options, warrants, and convertible notes were adjusted
in accordance with their terms and pursuant to the ratio of the reverse split.
All fractional shares were rounded up to the next whole number of shares.
Stock
based compensation
On
January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123R, which
requires the Company to recognize expense related to the fair value of the
Company’s share-based compensation issued to employees and directors. Prior to
January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for share-based compensation under the
recognition and measurement provisions of APB No. 25 and related
interpretations, as permitted by SFAS No. 123. The Company adopted SFAS No.
123R
using the modified prospective transition method. Accordingly, periods prior
to
adoption have not been restated. Compensation cost recognized for the twelve
months ended December 31, 2006 includes a) compensation cost for all share-based
compensation granted prior to, but not vested as of January 1, 2006, based
on
the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions
of SFAS No.123 and b) compensation cost for all share-based compensation granted
beginning January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in
accordance with the provisions of SFAS No.123R. The compensation cost was
recognized using the straight-line attribution method.
The
following table summarizes the allocation of stock-based compensation to expense
categories for the year ended December 31, 2006 (in thousands):

For
the
year ended December 31, 2006, stock compensation was approximately $2.9 million.
At December 31, 2006, total unrecognized compensation costs related to stock
options was approximately $3.4 million, net of estimated forfeitures. Total
unrecognized compensation cost will be adjusted for future changes in estimated
forfeitures and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period
of
approximately 5.3 years.

The
Company recognizes compensation expense for options granted to non-employees
in
accordance with the provision of Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) consensus
Issue 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than
Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services,”
which requires using a fair value options pricing model and re-measuring such
stock options to the current fair market value at each reporting period as
the
underlying options vest and services are rendered.
In
determining the fair value of stock options granted during the twelve month
periods ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004, the following key assumptions
were used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model:

We
have
not declared or paid any dividends and do not currently expect to do so in
the
near future. The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes is based
on
the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury securities with an
equivalent term. Expected volatility is based on the weighted average historical
volatility of the Company’s common stock for the most recent five year period.
The expected term of options represents the period that eMagin’s stock-based
awards are expected to be outstanding and was determined based on historical
experience and vesting schedules of similar awards.
The
following table shows the proforma effect on eMagin’s net loss and net loss per

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has issued interpretation No. 48,
“Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—An Interpretation of FASB Statement
No. 109” (“FIN 48”), regarding accounting for, and disclosure of, uncertain tax
positions. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes
recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB
Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” FIN 48 prescribes a
recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement
recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken
in a
tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification,
interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and
transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2006. We do not anticipate that the adoption of this statement will have a
material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of
operation.
In
September 2006, the SEC issued SAB 108. SAB 108 provides guidance on
the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying
current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. SAB
108
establishes an approach that requires quantification of financial statement
errors based on the effects of each of the Company’s balance sheet and statement
of operations and the related financial statement disclosures. SAB 108
permits companies to record the cumulative effect of initial adoption by
recording the necessary “correcting” adjustments to the carrying values of
assets and liabilities as of the beginning of that year with the offsetting
adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings only if
material. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending on or after
November 15, 2006.
In
November 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 151 (“SFAS 151”), “Inventory
Costs, an Amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4.” SFAS 151 clarifies the
accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling
costs and wasted material and requires that these items be recognized as current
period charges. SFAS 151 applies only to inventory costs incurred during
periods beginning after the effective date and also requires that the allocation
of fixed production overhead to conversion costs be based on the normal capacity
of the production facilities. SFAS 151 is effective beginning in fiscal
2007. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 151 will have
a material impact on its financial position or results of
operations.
In
June
2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error
Corrections”, a replacement of APB No. 20, “Accounting
Changes” (“APB No. 20”) and SFAS No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes
in Interim Financial Statements” (“SFAS
No. 3”). SFAS No. 154 changes the requirements for the accounting for
and reporting of, a change in accounting principle. Previously, most voluntary
changes in accounting principles required recognition of a cumulative effect
adjustment within net income of the period of the change. SFAS No. 154
requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements,
unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects
or
the cumulative effect of the change. SFAS No. 154 is effective for
accounting changes made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005;
however, it does not change the transition provisions of any existing accounting
pronouncements. The Company adopted the statement as of January 1,
2006.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS
157”). SFAS 157 provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and
liabilities. It also responds to investors’ requests for expanded information
about the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair
value, the information used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value
measurements on earnings. SFAS 157 applies whenever other standards require
(or
permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value, and does not expand
the use of fair value in any new circumstances. SFAS 157 is effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007
and is required to be adopted by the Company in the first quarter of 2008.
The
Company is evaluating the effect that the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on
its
consolidated results of operations and financial condition and is not yet in
a
position to determine such effects.

AMEX
Delisting
On
October 9, 2006, the Company received notice from the American Stock Exchange
(the “AMEX”) Listing Qualifications Department stating that the Company does not
meet certain continued listing standards as set forth in Part 10 of the AMEX
Company Guide (the “Company Guide”). Specifically, pursuant to a review by the
AMEX of the Company’s 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, the
AMEX has determined that the Company is not in compliance with Sections
1003(a)(ii) and 1003(a)(iii) of the Company Guide, respectively, which state,
in
relevant part, that the AMEX will normally consider suspending dealings in,
or
removing from the list, securities of a company that (a) has stockholders'
equity of less than $4.0 million if such company has sustained losses from
continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal
years; or (b) has stockholders' equity of less than $6.0 million if such company
has sustained losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five
most recent fiscal years, respectively.
On
November 6, 2006, the Company submitted a plan advising the AMEX of actions
that
it will take, which may bring it into compliance with Sections 1003 (a)(ii)
and
1003(a)(iii) of the Company Guide within a maximum of 18 months of receipt
of
the notice letter. On January 5, 2007, the Company received notice from the
staff of the AMEX indicating that it intends to strike the Company’s common
stock from listing on AMEX by filing a delisting application with the Securities
and Exchange Commission as it has determined that the Company has failed to
comply with the continued listing standards. The Company requested a verbal
hearing which was held on February 27, 2007.
On
March
1, 2007, the Company received notice from the AMEX indicating that the AMEX
will
initiate the delisting process with respect to the Company’s common stock. On
March 12, 2007, in accordance with Part 12 of the Company Guide, the Company
was
suspended from trading on the AMEX. The Company is currently trading the
Company’s common stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol,
EMAN.
The
delisting from the AMEX triggered a compliance condition on the notes payable.
As a result the Company is required to pay the noteholders monthly interest
at
1% on the outstanding principal of the notes payable. The Company received
a
waiver from the noteholders that allows the Company to accrue the interest
and
delay the interest payment until the earliest of the Company (i) completing
$2
million of debt or equity financing or (ii) the occurrence of a Repurchase
Event
per the note.

Act
is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive

required disclosure.
(b)
Changes

During
the period ended December 31, 2006, there were no changes in our internal
