1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements of Kopin Corporation as of March 29, 2025 and for the three month periods ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024 are unaudited and include all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the results of operations for the periods then ended. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2024, as amended. The results of the Company’s operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of the Company’s operations for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year. As used in this report, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, “Kopin” and the “Company” mean Kopin Corporation and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates another meaning.

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the three month periods ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024 include the accounts of Kopin Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Liquidity

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred a net loss of $43.9 million and incurred net cash outflows from operations of $14.2 million for the year ended December 28, 2024. The Company incurred a net loss of $3.1 million for the three months ended March 29, 2025 and net cash outflows from operations of $3.4 million. The Company’s net cash outflows from operations were partially a result of funding its ongoing investments in research and development, which management believes will continue, and production inefficiencies. In 2024, the Company sold 43.0 million shares of common stock and 4.0 million prefunded warrants for net proceeds of $33.9 million. As described in Note 14 Litigation, on April 22, 2024, a jury verdict was entered against the Company awarding approximately $5.1 million in damages as well as recommending $19.7 million in disgorgement and exemplary damages. On May 22, 2024, the Company filed its Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law or in the alternative for a New Trial, as well as two submissions arguing that the disgorgement and exemplary damages should not be awarded. That same day, BlueRadios filed motions seeking a permanent injunction prohibiting Kopin from selling any products that incorporate BlueRadios’ trade secrets, over $10.8 million in pre-judgment interest, and over $10.2 million in attorneys’ fees and costs. While no final judgment has been issued by the Court, the Court will take that recommendation under advisement and will rule in its final judgment on the final amount after briefing on the issues. Final briefings on the motions were made by the parties on October 29, 2024. As the Company is unable to conclude that a favorable outcome in this litigation is probable and due to the net losses and negative cash flows from operations, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the issuance of these financial statements.

Management has implemented certain plans to reduce cash outflows including operational improvements and the curtailment of certain development programs, both of which are expected to preserve cash. The Company has in the past sold equity securities through at-the-market equity offerings and in the traditional fashion of significant equity offerings. Nonetheless, management monitors the capital markets on an ongoing basis and may consider raising capital if favorable market conditions develop. If the Company’s actual results are less than projected or the Company needs to raise capital for additional liquidity, the Company may be required to do additional equity financings, reduce expenses, or enter into a strategic transaction. However, management can make no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital, reduce expenses sufficiently, or enter into a strategic transaction on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all.

2. ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU Number 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires more disaggregated income tax disclosures, including additional information in the rate reconciliation and additional disclosures about income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 became effective for the Company for the fiscal year ending December 27, 2025. Early adoption is permitted, and guidance should be applied prospectively, with an option to apply guidance retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2023-09 on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, which requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities (“PBEs”). The ASU does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for all PBEs for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on the presentation of its condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU Number 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker(s) that are included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. The guidance also expands disclosure requirements for interim periods, as well as requires disclosure of other segment items, including the title and position of the entity’s chief operations decision maker(s). ASU 2023-07 became effective for the Company for the fiscal year ending December 28, 2024, and for interim periods starting in the Company’s first quarter of 2025. The Company adopted this standard for fiscal year 2024 and there was not a material impact, reference additional disclosure within Note 12. Segments and Disaggregation of Revenue.

3. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair Value Measurements

Financial instruments are categorized as Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 based upon the method by which their fair value is computed. An investment is categorized as Level 1 when its fair value is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. An investment is categorized as Level 2 if its fair market value is based on quoted market prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, based on observable inputs such as interest rates, yield curves, or derived from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. The Company’s Level 2 investments are based on a yield to maturity models and market interest rates. An investment is categorized as Level 3 if its fair value is based on unobservable inputs for the asset.

The following table details the recurring fair value measurements of the Company’s financial assets:

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term nature.

Marketable Securities

The Company validates the fair market values of the financial instruments below by using a model that incorporates current interest rates and remaining term. The restricted cash balance at March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024 is invested in a certificate of deposit and money market funds. The restricted cash balance that is invested in a certificate of deposit is classified as a Corporate debt available-for-sale marketable security. Investments in available-for-sale marketable securities are as follows at March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024:

The contractual maturity of the Company’s marketable debt securities is as follows at March 29, 2025:

Equity Investments

Equity investments rarely traded or not quoted will generally have less (or no) pricing observability and a higher degree of judgment utilized in measuring fair value. Initial measurement of equity investments occurs when an observable price for the equity investment is available. The Company adopted the measurement alternative for equity investments without readily determinable fair values, which is often referred to as cost method investments, adjusted for changes in observable market transaction. As a result, these investments are revalued upon occurrence of an observable price change for similar investments and for impairments. As of March 29, 2025 and December 30, 2024, the carrying value of these equity investments was $2.8 million.

On January 5, 2023, the Company entered into a Technology License Agreement and an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “LST Agreements”) with Lightning Silicon Technology, Inc. (“LST”). Pursuant to the LST Agreements, the Company issued a license to LST for certain technology associated with its organic light emitting technology, transferred in-process development contracts with two customers and accounts receivables that the Company had previously determined were not collectible. The technology license agreement provides for Kopin to transfer certain patents to LST if LST achieves certain milestones, however upon transfer Kopin will receive a license to the technology. To the extent LST makes improvements to the technology licensed from Kopin, Kopin will receive a license for these improvements for certain markets. Kopin is not obligated to provide any additional funding support to LST. As consideration for the transaction, the Company received 18,000,000 common shares representing a 20.0% equity stake in LST. The Company has recorded its investment in LST at $0 as of March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024. The Company receives a royalty based on unit sales of products that utilize the technology licensed. Royalty received to date has been de minimis. Drs. John Fan, the Company’s former President and CEO and former Chairman of the Board, Boryeu Tsaur, a former Executive Vice President of the Company and Hong Choi, the Company’s former Chief Technology Officer terminated their employment with the Company and became investors in and members of the management team of LST. Dr. Fan is the Founder of LST. As a result of this transaction, in 2022, the Company wrote off the two operating lease assets associated with facilities used for the development of the Company’s OLED products.

The Company has an equity interest in a Lenovo New Vision which it acquired through purchasing capital and contributing certain intellectual property. As of March 29, 2025, the Company owned an approximate 10% interest in this investment and the carrying value of this equity investment was $1.5 million at March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024.

The Company has an investment in RealWear Inc. (RealWear) which had been valued at $2.5 million. In the second quarter of 2024, the Company reviewed the financial condition and an observable price point in an equity transaction, and as a result, recorded impairment charges of $0.7 million. In the fourth quarter of 2024, RealWear entered into a merger agreement and based upon the information provided, in the third quarter of 2024, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1.1 million, reducing the value of the investment to $0.7 million. In the fourth quarter of 2024, RealWear completed its merger, subject to post closing events. The Company performed a valuation of the investment based on the merger agreement, available financial statements and projections, assumptions on the post-closing events and the resulting dilution, and 100% volatility, a risk-free interest rate of 4.5% and an expected term ofone year and recorded a write up in the RealWear investment of $0.2 million. In the first quarter of 2025, the Company reviewed the financial condition and as a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of less than $0.1 million. As of March 29, 2025, the Company owns an approximate 1.7% interest in this investment and the investment is valued at $0.9 million.

The Company has an equity investment in Solos Incorporation (“Solos Inc.”). The carrying value of this equity investment was $0.2 million at March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024.

4. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, NET

Accounts receivable consisted of the following:

Changes to the allowance for credit losses for the three months ended March 29, 2025 were as follows:

5. INVENTORY

Inventories are stated at standard cost adjusted to approximate the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value and consist of the following at March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024:

6. NET LOSS PER SHARE

Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period including the pre-funded warrants, less any unvested restricted shares. Diluted net loss per share is calculated using weighted-average shares outstanding, including the pre-funded warrants, and contingently issuable shares, less weighted-average shares reacquired during the period. The net outstanding shares are adjusted for the dilutive effect of shares issuable upon the assumed conversion of the Company’s common stock equivalents, which consist of unvested restricted stock.

The following were not included in weighted-average common shares outstanding-diluted because they are anti-dilutive:

The shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options that were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because their effect would have been antidilutive are as follows:

7. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Registered sale of equity securities

On September 23, 2024, the Company sold 37,550,000 shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 4,000,000 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $0.64 per pre-funded warrant and received gross proceeds of $27.0 million before deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses paid by the Company of $1.8 million. The offering price of the pre-funded warrant equals the public offering price per share of the common stock less the $0.01 per share exercise price of each pre-funded warrant. On September 30, 2024, the Company sold 2,405,000 shares of common stock and received gross proceeds of approximately $1.6 million.

During the three months ended March 30, 2024, the Company sold 3,080,000 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $7,466,755 (average of $2.42 per share) before deducting broker expenses paid by the Company of approximately $0.2 million, pursuant to the Company’s then effective At-The-Market Equity Offering Sales Agreement, dated as of March 5, 2021 (the “ATM Agreement”) with Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated (“Stifel”), as agent. The ATM Agreement terminated in the three months ended March 30, 2024.

On June 6, 2024, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, from 150,000,000 shares to 200,000,000 shares.

Non-Vested Restricted Common Stock

The fair value of non-vested restricted common stock awards is generally the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The non-vested restricted common stock awards require the employee to fulfill certain obligations, including remaining employed bythe Company for one, two or four years (the vesting period) and in certain cases also require meeting either performance criteria or the Company’s stock achieving a certain price. For non-vested restricted common stock awards that solely require the recipient to remain employed with the Company, the stock compensation expense is amortized over the anticipated service period. For non-vested restricted common stock awards that require the achievement of performance criteria, the Company reviews the probability of achieving the performance goals on a periodic basis. If the Company determines that it is probable that the performance criteria will be achieved, the amount of compensation cost derived for the performance goal is amortized over the anticipated service period. If the performance criteria are not met, no compensation cost is recognized and any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed.

The fair value of non-vested restricted common stock awards is generally the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The non-vested restricted common stock awards require the employee to fulfil certain obligations, including remaining employed bythe Company for periods ranging from one to five years (the vesting period) and in certain cases also require meeting either performance criteria. For non-vested restricted common stock awards that solely require the recipient to remain employed with the Company, the stock compensation expense is amortized over the requisite service period. For non-vested restricted common stock awards that require the achievement of performance criteria, the Company reviews the probability of achieving the performance goals on a periodic basis. If the Company determines that it is probable that the performance criteria will be achieved, the amount of compensation cost derived for the performance goal is amortized over the anticipated service period. If the performance criteria are not met, no compensation cost is recognized and any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed.

Restricted stock activity for the three month period ended March 29, 2025 was as follows:

Stock-Based Compensation

The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense within each of the categories below as it relates to non-vested restricted common stock and stock options awards for the three months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024 (no tax benefits were recognized):

Unrecognized compensation expense for non-vested restricted common stock as of March 29, 2025 totaled $7.7 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximatelytwo years.

Stock Options

During the three months ended March 29, 2025, an option award for 591,366 shares of the Company’s common stock was granted to the Chief Executive Officer. These options have a strike price of $1.76 and vest over a 4 year period. During the three months ended March 29, 2025, the Company recorded incremental stock-based compensation of less than $0.1 million as a result of the granting of stock option awards. The remaining unrecognized compensation cost of is expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting period. The fair value of this options award was estimated using the Black-Scholes model using the following assumptions and had the following fair values:

The Company’s 2025 average expected volatility and average expected life is based on the average of the Company’s historical information. The risk-free rate is based on the rate of U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of option grants. The Company has paid no dividends on its common stock in the past and does not anticipate paying any dividends in the future.

A summary of stock option activity for the period ended March 29, 2025 is as follows:

8. ACCRUED WARRANTY

The Company typically warrants its products against defect for 12 to 18 months, however, for certain products a customer may purchase an extended warranty. A provision for estimated future costs and estimated returns for credit relating to such warranty is recorded in the period when product is shipped and revenue is recognized and is updated as additional information becomes available. The Company’s estimate of future costs to satisfy warranty obligations is based primarily on historical warranty expense experienced and a provision for potential future product failures. Changes in the accrued warranty for the three months ended March 29, 2025 were as follows:

Extended Warranties

Deferred revenue represents the purchase of extended warranties by the Company’s customers. The Company recognizes revenue from an extended warranty on the straight-line method over the life of the extended warranty, which is typically 12 to 15 months beyondthe standard 12 to 18-month warranty. The Company classifies the current portion of deferred revenue under Other accrued liabilities in its condensed consolidated balance sheets. At March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company had less than $0.1 million of deferred revenue related to extended warranties.

9. INCOME TAXES

The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of less than $0.1 million and $0.0 in the three months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, respectively. As of March 29, 2025, the Company has available for tax purposes U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) of approximately $116.3 million expiring 2025 through 2037 and $111.5 million that have an unlimited carryover period. The Company has recognized a full valuation allowance on its domestic and certain foreign net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of the realization of such assets. The Company recognizes both accrued interest and penalties related to its uncertain tax positions related to intercompany loan interest and potential transfer pricing exposure related to its foreign subsidiaries.

10. CONTRACT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Revenue Recognition

Substantially all of the Company’s product and license and other revenues are derived from the sales of components and subassemblies and the license of intellectual property for use in defense and industrial applications. The Company also has development contracts for the design, manufacture and or modification of products for the U.S. Government or prime contractors for the U.S. Government and for customers that expect to sell into the defense markets. The Company may offer technologies developed under these defense research and development contracts in products sold to industrial, medical and consumer markets. The Company’s contracts with the U.S. Government are typically subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulations (“FAR”) and are priced based on estimated or actual costs of producing goods. The FAR provides guidance on the types of costs that are allowable in establishing prices for goods provided under U.S. Government contracts. The pricing for non-U.S. Government contracts is based on the specific negotiations with each customer.

In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised products, and the amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these products and excludes taxes collected from customers which are subsequently remitted to government authorities.

The Company applies the following five steps to guide revenue recognition:

Product Revenues

For certain contracts with prime contractors for the U.S. Government, the Company recognizes product revenue over time as the Company performs because of continuous transfer of control to the customer and the lack of an alternative use for the product. The continuous transfer of control to the customer is supported by liability clauses in the contract that allow the U.S. Government to unilaterally terminate the contract for convenience, pay the Company for costs incurred plus a reasonable profit and take control of any work in process and finished goods.

In situations where control transfers over time, product revenue is recognized based on the extent of progress towards completion of the performance obligation. The Company uses the cost-to-cost input method to measure the extent of progress towards completion of the performance obligation for its contracts because the Company believes it best depicts the transfer of assets to the customer. Under the cost-to-cost input method, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation which includes the expected yield which is a significant judgment. Revenues are recorded proportionally as costs are incurred.

For certain contracts with prime contractors for the U.S. Government and commercial customers, while the contract may have a similar liability clause, the Company’s products historically have an alternative use and thus, revenue is recognized at a point in time upon transfer of control. Provisions for product returns and allowances are reductions in the transaction price and are recorded in the same period as the related revenues. The Company analyzes historical returns, current economic trends and changes in customer demand when evaluating the adequacy of sales returns and other allowances.

Research & Development Contracts

For most of the Company’s development contracts and contracts with the U.S. Government, the customer contracts with the Company to provide a significant service of integrating a set of components into a single unit. Since these performance obligations are not distinct or capable or being distinct, the entire contract is accounted for as one performance obligation. If there is a follow-on production contract it is assessed whether it is a contract modification or a new contract.

In situations where control transfers over time, revenue is recognized based on the extent of progress towards completion of the performance obligation. The Company generally uses an input method using the cost-to-cost approach to measure the extent of progress towards completion of the performance obligation for its contracts because the Company believes it best depicts the transfer of assets to the customer. Under the cost-to-cost measure approach, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation which requires management to use significant assumptions and judgements. Revenues are recorded proportionally as costs are incurred.

License and other revenues

The rights and benefits to the Company’s intellectual property are conveyed to certain customers through royalty bearing technology license agreements. These sales-based royalties are recognized when they are earned. Revenues from sales-based royalties under license agreements are shown under License and other revenues on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Contract assets include unbilled amounts typically resulting from sales under contracts when the cost-to-cost method of revenue recognition is utilized and revenue recognized from customer arrangements, including licensing, exceeds the amount billed to the customer, and right to payment is not just subject to the passage of time. Amounts may not exceed their net realizable value. Contract assets are generally classified as current. The Company classifies the noncurrent portion of contract assets under Other assets in its condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Contract liabilities consist of advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized for the contract.

Net contract assets (liabilities) consisted of the following:

The $2.3 million increase in the Company’s net contract assets at March 29, 2025 as compared to December 28, 2024 was primarily due to an increase in amounts owed from production of defense products.

The $0.1 million decrease in the Company’s contract liabilities from December 28, 2024 to March 29, 2025 was primarily due to satisfaction of performance obligations that were paid in advance.

The Company records contract assets or contract liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis. The Company records a contract asset for unbilled revenue when the Company’s performance exceeds amounts billed. The Company classifies the contract asset as either current or non-current based on the expected timing of the Company’s right to bill under the terms of the contract, which the Company expects to be able to bill for within one year.

Contract liabilities consist of payments received in advance of product shipment. The liability is removed with shipment of the product.

In the three months ended March 29, 2025, the Company recognized revenue of $0.1 million related to its contract liabilities at December 28, 2024. In the three months ended March 30, 2024, the Company recognized revenue of $0.3 million related to its contract liabilities at December 30, 2023.

The Company did not recognize impairment losses on its contract assets in the three months ended March 29, 2025, or the years ended December 28, 2024 or December 30, 2023.

Performance Obligations

The Company’s revenue recognition related to performance obligations that were satisfied at a point in time and over time were as follows:

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of orders for which work has not been performed and excludes unexercised contract options and potential orders under ordering-type contracts. As of March 29, 2025, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $20.9 million, which the Company expects to recognize over the next 12 months. The remaining performance obligations represent amounts to be earned under government contracts, which are subject to cancellation.

11. LEASES

The Company enters into operating leases primarily for: real estate, including for manufacturing, engineering, research, administration and sales facilities, and information technology (“IT”) equipment. At March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company did not have any finance leases. Approximately all of its future lease commitments, and related lease liability, relate to the Company’s real estate leases. Some of the Company’s leases include options to extend or terminate the lease.

The components of lease expense were as follows:

At March 29, 2025, the Company’s future lease payments under non-cancellable leases were as follows:

The Company’s lease liabilities recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 29, 2025 were as follows:

Supplemental cash flow information related to leases was as follows:

Other information related to leases was as follows:

12. SEGMENTS AND DISAGGREGATION OF REVENUE

Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and that is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is its President and Chief Executive Officer. The Company has determined that it operates inone operating segment andone reportable segment, as the CODM reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources, and evaluating financial performance.

The CODM assesses performance and decides how to allocate resources and make operating decisions based on revenues, loss from operations, and net loss that are reported on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. These metrics are also used to monitor budget versus actual results. The measure of segment assets is reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as total assets. Revenues, expenses, and assets requiring disclosure in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, are also included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. See the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024 and the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, for details.

Total long-lived assets by country at March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024 were:

The Company disaggregates its revenue from contracts with customers by geographic location and by display application, as it believes this best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

During the three months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, the Company derived its sales from the following geographies:

During the three months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, the Company derived its sales from the following display applications:

The issues associated with the global shortage of semiconductor circuit chips and other raw materials decreased in 2024 as compared to 2023 and 2022. However, the Company has identified several semiconductor components which continue to have long lead delivery times. The Company continues to search for and procure all necessary components from its current vendors and new alternative vendors. In certain situations, the Company can obtain the components but at a significantly increased cost. The inability to procure a single component will prevent the completion of the Company’s product and the ability to sell the product. The Company’s products go through extensive qualification processes and therefore its customers may not accept a replacement component. The Company is unable to determine if it will be able to obtain all necessary components for fiscal 2025. If the Company is unable to obtain all necessary components, it may be required to stop production, which would negatively affect its cash flow and results of operations. In addition, the Company depends on a Taiwanese foundry for the manufacture of integrated circuits for its AMLCD display products and on Chinese, Korean, and European foundries for its OLED display products. If there was a disruption of supply from these foundries it would take a significant period of time to identify, and qualify, if possible, a new source.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is subject to the possibility of loss contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. Management considers the likelihood of loss related to an asset, or the incurrence of a liability, as well as its ability to reasonably estimate the amount of the loss, in determining loss contingencies. An estimated loss contingency is accrued when it is probable that an asset has been impaired, or a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company regularly evaluates current information available to determine whether such accruals should be adjusted and whether new accruals are required.

14. LITIGATION

The Company may engage in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Claims, suits, investigations and proceedings are inherently uncertain and it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of such matters and the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be affected in any particular period. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, an accrual will be established for legal proceedings if and when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and estimable.

BlueRadios, Inc. v. Kopin Corporation, Civil Action No. 16-02052-JLK (D. Col.):

On August 12, 2016, BlueRadios, Inc. (“BlueRadios”) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado, alleging that the Company breached a contract between it and BlueRadios concerning a joint venture between the Company and BlueRadios to design, develop and commercialize micro-display products with embedded wireless technology referred to as “Golden-i,” breached the covenant of good faith and fair dealing associated with that contract, breached its fiduciary duty to BlueRadios, and misappropriated trade secrets owned by BlueRadios in violation of Colorado law (C.R.S. § 7-74-104(4)) and the Defend Trade Secrets Act (18 U.S.C. § 1836(b)(1)). BlueRadios further alleged that the Company was unjustly enriched by its alleged misconduct, BlueRadios is entitled to an accounting to determine the amount of profits obtained by the Company as a result of its alleged misconduct, and the inventorship on at least ten patents or patent applications owned by the Company need to be corrected to list BlueRadios’ employees as inventors and thereby list BlueRadios as co-assignees of the patents. BlueRadios seeks monetary, declaratory, and injunctive relief, including for alleged non-payment of engineering retainer fees.

On October 11, 2016, the Company filed its Answer and Affirmative Defenses. The parties completed expert depositions on November 15, 2019. On December 2, 2019, the Company filed a Motion for Partial Summary Judgment requesting the Court dismiss counts 2-7 in their entirety and counts 1 and 8 in part. BlueRadios also filed a Motion for Partial Summary Judgment alleging it is the co-owner of U.S. Patent No. 8,909,296. Responses to the Motions for Partial Summary Judgment were filed on January 15, 2020, and replies were filed on February 19, 2020. On September 25, 2020, the Court denied BlueRadios’ Motion for Partial Summary Judgment. On August 3, 2022, the Court granted the Company’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment by dismissing counts 3, 6, 7, the claim for punitive damages under count 2, and count 8 as it relates to patent applications and by denying the motion as it relates to counts 1, 4, and 5, and the remainder of counts 2 and 8. The Court also ordered discovery reopened for certain limited purposes. A trial date was set by the Court for January 22, 2024 to February 5, 2024 but then re-scheduled for March 20, 2024 to April 16, 2024. On Monday, April 22, 2024, after a four week trial, a jury verdict was entered finding for BlueRadios and awarding approximately $5.1 million in damages as well as recommending $19.7 million in disgorgement and exemplary damages. While no final judgment has been issued by the Court, the Court will take that recommendation under advisement and will rule in its final judgment on the final amount after post-trial briefing. On May 22, 2024, the Company filed its Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law or in the alternative for a New Trial, as well as two submissions arguing that the disgorgement and exemplary damages should not be awarded. That same day, BlueRadios filed motions seeking a permanent injunction prohibiting Kopin from selling any products that incorporate BlueRadios’ trade secrets, over $10.8 million in pre-judgment interest, and over $10.2 million in attorneys’ fees and costs. Briefing on those issues concluded on June 26, 2024. On September 25, 2024, the Company filed a supplemental brief on issue preclusion arguing that BlueRadios’ claims were untimely because of findings of fact made inBlueRadios, Inc. v. Hamilton, Brook, Smith & Reynolds, P.C., No. 1:21-cv-10488-DJC, ECF 268 (D. Mass. Sept. 18, 2024). That supplemental briefing concluded on October 29, 2024. The Company is currently considering an appeal of any final judgment.
