eMagin Announces Record First Quarter 2012 Revenues

- Product Revenue Up 35%; Positive EBITDA -


BELLEVUE, Wash. – May 10, 2012 - eMagin Corporation (NYSE Amex: EMAN), the leader in OLED technology for the design and manufacture of OLED microdisplays for high resolution imaging products, today announced financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2012.

“During the first quarter of 2012, our base business performed well both in domestic and international markets and our outlook continues to be positive,” stated Andrew G. Sculley, President and CEO. “I am pleased to report a 35% increase in product revenue (primarily display sales) and a 59% increase in the number of displays produced during the first quarter versus the year ago first quarter as a result of improved yield and better line utilization.”

Mr. Sculley continued, “During the second quarter, we expect to complete the testing phase of the qualification of our new OLED deposition machine and begin production. Once the new machine is fully operational, we expect OLED deposition capacity to increase by tenfold and we anticipate higher yields, putting us in a strong position to address the increasing demand for our products from all of our major business segments, including military, industrial and consumer applications.”

Quarterly Results

Revenues for the first quarter rose 13% to $6.1 million versus $5.4 million for the first quarter of 2011. The gain is attributable to an increase in volume of displays sold, a slightly higher average sales price and an increase in display production offset by a decrease in contract revenue during the period.

Gross margin for the first quarter increased to 44% on gross profit of $2.7 million, compared to a gross margin of 41% on gross profit of $2.2 million in the same quarter last year. The year-over-year improvement in gross margin was achieved through a higher volume of units manufactured and sold, and a higher average selling price per display, which was partially offset by an increase in the cost of goods sold, primarily related to personnel costs.

Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2012 were $3.4 million, versus operating expenses of $2.7 million for the prior year period. Operating expenses are comprised of R&D expenses and selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses. R&D expenses increased from 10% of revenues in Q1 last year to 19% of revenues in Q1 this year due to the internal development of a new display, increased research and development activity, and to increased personnel costs. SG&A expenses decreased from 39% of revenue last year to 37% this year.

Net loss for the first quarter of 2012 was $452,000, or $(0.02) per diluted share, compared to net loss of $3.3 million, or $(0.16) per diluted share, in the first quarter last year. Adjusted Net loss for Q1 last year was $272,000 (see attached tables). Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter was $44,000.

Recent Corporate Highlights

·  
eMagin received a $3.1 million follow-on order for OLED displays for the US Army Remote Viewer, all of which must be delivered in 2012.
 
·  
Work on the $1.1 million Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract from the United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) to optimize the Company’s WUXGA OLED microdisplay for mass production is progressing. Completion of the program is expected in the third quarter of 2012. eMagin’s WUXGA OLED microdisplay is the highest resolution full-color microdisplay ever produced.

·  
Installation of the Company’s new OLED deposition machine will be completed and production is expected to begin in the second quarter. The new tool will augment the Company's existing Satella OLED deposition machine, an R&D tool adapted and used by eMagin for both R&D and production since the Company’s inception in 1996.

·  
The Company’s new seal machine will improve the existing seal process which should increase yield and capacity. The new seal machine is expected to come online during the second quarter.

·  
eMagin’s R&D team has achieved further reductions in the size of the full color pixel, to 8.1 microns. This is the smallest known full color pixel in the industry and will potentially lead to even smaller size displays which are less costly to produce.

·  
eMagin is working with a number of customers moving forward with the Company’s new digital VGA display. Initial small volume production orders have been received and larger volumes are anticipated for later in 2012.

·  
We are developing an XGA display to better address the commercial and consumer electronic viewfinder market. There are several newly interested potential customers for this new product. eMagin currently sells a different display into the high end of this market.

·  
Deliveries continued under the Javelin program in the first quarter and will continue in the second quarter.

Outlook

eMagin reaffirms its 2012 revenue guidance range of $30-$34 million. The Company expects contract revenue to increase during the balance of the year due to greater activity on existing contracts and to new contracts.
