Vuzix Corporation reported second quarter 2026 results for the three months ended June 30, 2026. Total revenues were $1.1 million, down 14% from $1.3 million a year earlier, with product sales falling 15% and engineering services and OEM product sales down 8%.
The company recorded a gross loss of $0.6 million, an improvement from a $0.8 million gross loss in 2025, while operating expenses remained high. Research and Development expense rose 20% to $3.1 million, partly offset by lower Selling and Marketing and General and Administrative costs. Net loss was steady at about $7.7 million, or $0.09 per share versus $0.10. Net cash used in operating activities increased to $6.6 million, and Vuzix ended the quarter with $17.3 million in cash and no debt, while highlighting progress with key customers such as Amazon, Collins Aerospace, a global automaker, and Augmex.
Vuzix Corporation entered into a new Open Market Sales Agreement with Jefferies LLC on August 14, 2026, establishing an at the market offering program for its common stock. Sales will be made from time to time at Vuzix’s discretion through Jefferies as sales agent, subject to specified instructions on share amounts, timing, daily limits, and minimum prices.
The program is conducted under an effective Form S-3 registration statement and a prospectus supplement dated August 14, 2026, covering the sale of common shares with an aggregate offering price of up to $100,000,000. Jefferies will receive a commission equal to 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from sales, and Vuzix will reimburse certain expenses and provide customary indemnification. This agreement replaces a prior sales agreement with Jefferies, under which no further sales will be made, and will terminate when all covered shares are sold or upon permitted termination.

Vuzix Corporation reported first quarter 2026 revenue of $1.4 million, down 12% from $1.6 million a year earlier. Lower product sales, particularly reduced unit sales of M400 smart glasses, drove the decline, while engineering services revenue held roughly flat at $0.3 million.
The company posted a gross loss of $0.4 million and a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $7.1 million, or $0.09 per share, improving from an $8.6 million loss, or $0.11 per share, in 2025. Research and development spending rose to $3.0 million as Vuzix invested in new manufacturing equipment, while general and administrative expenses fell sharply to $2.1 million, largely due to lower non-cash stock-based compensation. Management highlighted an ongoing shift toward OEM smart glasses solutions, waveguides and defense-related opportunities.
Vuzix Corporation reported new equity awards for its top executives. On April 29, 2026, the company granted 477,178 restricted stock units (RSUs) to CEO Paul Travers and 193,258 RSUs to CFO Grant Russell under its 2023 Equity Incentive Plan.
Half of each grant will vest over time, with one-third vesting on December 15, 2026, one-third on December 15, 2027, and one-third on December 15, 2028. The remaining half is tied to performance goals that may be earned, and potentially increased up to 150% of that performance-based portion, based on achievements through December 31, 2028.
Vuzix Corporation reported a leadership change in its Enterprise Solutions business unit. On April 22, 2026, the employment of Chris Parkinson, PhD, as president of that unit ended by mutual agreement with the company.
In connection with his departure, 75,000 previously unvested shares of restricted common stock became vested, while 1,000,000 unvested performance stock units were forfeited. The filing does not describe any other changes to compensation or corporate structure related to this event.
Vuzix Corporation reported modest 2025 revenue growth and a sharply reduced loss while advancing its OEM and waveguide strategy. Full-year revenue rose to $6.3 million from $5.8 million, driven by higher M400 smart glasses sales and increased engineering services, especially for defense and security agencies.
The net loss attributable to common shareholders narrowed to $32.3 million, or $0.42 per share, from $73.5 million, or $1.08 per share, as inventory write-downs and operating expenses declined. Operating cash use improved to $18.8 million, and cash and equivalents were $21.2 million with working capital of $22.3 million at year-end.
Management highlighted a strategic shift toward OEM smart glasses, waveguides and defense-related work, and noted that meeting yield and production targets with Quanta Computer secured full funding of Quanta’s contemplated $20 million equity investment, supporting the next phase of smart glasses growth.

Dr. Parkinson is granted 150,000 restricted stock awards that vest in equal quarterly installments over 12 months and 1,000,000 performance stock units that vest only if specified revenue and EBITDA targets for the Enterprise Solutions unit are achieved by December 31, 2028.
