MicroVision Announces First Quarter 2015 Financial and Operating Results
Company starts 2015 with strong momentum
REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 30, 2015--MicroVision, Inc. (NASDAQ: MVIS), a leader in innovative ultra-miniature projection display and imaging technology, today announced its financial and operating results for the first quarter of 2015.
MicroVision started the year with strong momentum from several significant business events. In March, MicroVision announced that it has licensed its technology to a Fortune Global 100 electronics company. The multi-year non-exclusive license agreement included an $8 million upfront payment that was received in March. MicroVision will also be entitled to royalties on display modules sold by its customer. In addition, MicroVision announced that it received $14.5 million in new component orders from this customer to be fulfilled starting in the second half of 2015, continuing into 2016. The components are expected to be incorporated into display modules developed by the Fortune Global 100 customer.
Earlier in the quarter, Korean OEM Celluon introduced two new pico projector products at the 2015 International Consumer Electronics Show that incorporate MicroVision’s proprietary PicoP® display technology. The first product began selling in February and the second in early April. Both products have been garnering positive reviews across the market.
Financial Update
In the first quarter 2015, approximately 98 percent of revenue was attributable to the sale of key components and royalties compared to the previous year when the majority of revenue was from development activity. Product revenue in the first quarter is from orders received in the second half of 2014. Revenue from the previously announced $8 million upfront payment will be recognized over the expected life of the agreement, and a pro-rated amount is reported this quarter as royalty revenue.
The following financial results are for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014.
- Revenue was $0.9 million, primarily from fulfillment of component orders, compared to $1.2 million a year ago, which was primarily development revenue.
- Operating loss was $4.0 million, compared to $3.1 million for the same quarter a year ago.
- Net loss was $4.0 million, or $0.09 per share, compared to $8.0 million, or $0.23 per share for the same quarter a year ago. The first quarter 2014 net loss included a $5.0 million non-cash loss on the exchange of warrants.
- In the first quarter, positive cash flow from operations was $5.1 million and includes the $8 million upfront payment. In the first quarter 2014, cash used in operations was $2.9 million.
As of March 31, 2015, backlog was $18.7 million and cash and cash equivalents were $16.7 million. The cash balance includes funds received during the quarter of approximately $2.3 million from the exercise of previously issued warrants and $1.0 million from the sale of stock through an At-the-Market (ATM) equity facility MicroVision established last June, which is now completed.
