VUZIX CORPORATION

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Vuzix Corporation (“the Company” or “Vuzix”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain re-classifications have been made to prior comparable periods to conform with current reporting impacting Costs of Sales, Gross Profit and Depreciation and Amortization. The results of the Company’s operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results of the Company’s operations for the full fiscal year or any other period.

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2023.

Re-classification of Prior Year Presentation

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations. An adjustment has been made to the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, to reclassify depreciation expense related to our manufacturing operations from the amounts of reported depreciation and amortization expenses originally included in Operating Expenses. This change in classification does not affect previously reported Net Loss or reported Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows or Consolidated Balance Sheets. The below table is a summary of the impact of these re-classifications:

Customer Concentrations

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, one customer represented 75% of total product revenue. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, one customer represented 45% of total product revenue.

7

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, two customers represented 40% and 35% of total product revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, one customer represented 24% of total product revenue.

As of June 30, 2023, two customers represented 58% and 23% of accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2022, one customer represented 26% of accounts receivable.

Treasury Stock

Treasury stock purchases are accounted for under the cost method whereby the entire cost of the acquired stock is recorded as treasury stock. Gains and losses on the subsequent re-issuance of shares will be credited or charged to paid-in capital in excess of par value using the average-cost method.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). ASU 2016-13 provides for a new impairment model which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments, including but not limited to, accounts receivable. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 effective on January 1, 2023. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 – Revenue Recognition and Contracts with Customers

Significant Judgments

Under Topic 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, we use judgments that could potentially impact both the timing of our satisfaction of performance obligations and our determination of transaction prices used in determining revenue recognized by major product line. Such judgments include considerations in determining our transaction prices and when our performance obligations are satisfied for our standard product sales that include an end-user 30-day right to return if not satisfied with product and general payment terms that are between Net 30 and 60 days. For our engineering services, performance obligations are recognized over time using the input method and the estimated costs to complete each project are considered significant judgments.

Performance Obligations

Revenues from our performance obligations are typically satisfied at a point-in-time for Smart Glasses, Waveguides and Display Engines, and our OEM Products, which are recognized when the customer obtains control and ownership, which is generally upon shipment. The Company considers shipping and handling activities performed to be fulfillment activities and not a separate performance obligation. The Company also records revenue for performance obligations relating to our engineering services over time by using the input method measuring progress toward satisfying the performance obligations. Satisfaction of our performance obligations related to our engineering services is

8

measured by the Company’s costs incurred as a percentage of total expected costs to project completion as the inputs of actual costs incurred by the Company are directly correlated with progress toward completing the contract. As such, the Company believes that our methodologies for recognizing revenue over time for our engineering services correlate directly with the transfer of control of the underlying assets to our customers.

Our standard product sales include a twelve (12) month assurance-type product warranty. In the case of certain of our OEM products and waveguide sales, some include a standard product warranty of up to eighteen (18) months to allow distribution channels to offer the end customer a full twelve (12) months of coverage. We offer extended warranties to customers, which extend the standard product warranty on product sales for an additional twelve (12) month period. All revenue related to extended product warranty sales is deferred and recognized over the extended warranty period. Our engineering services contracts vary from contract to contract but typically include payment terms of Net 30 days from the date of billing, subject to an agreed upon customer acceptance period.

The following table presents a summary of the Company’s sales by revenue recognition method as a percentage of total net sales for the six months ended June 30:

Remaining Performance Obligations

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had approximately $80,000 of remaining performance obligations under a current waveguide development project, which represents the remainder of the total transaction price of approximately $800,000 under this development agreement, which commenced in 2022, less revenue recognized under percentage of completion to date. The Company expects to recognize the remaining revenue related to this project in the third quarter of 2023. Revenues earned less amounts invoiced at June 30, 2023 in the amount of $309,762 are reflected as Accrued Revenues in Excess of Billings in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The Company had no material outstanding performance obligations related to product sales, other than its standard product warranty.

Note 3 – Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution from the assumed exercise of stock options. During periods of net loss, all common stock equivalents are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because they are anti-dilutive. Since the Company reported a net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the calculation for basic and diluted earnings per share is considered to be the same, as the impact of potential common shares is anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were 8,658,642 and 8,528,668 common stock share equivalents, respectively, potentially exercisable or issuable under conversion or exercise of stock options that could dilute basic earnings per share in the future.

Note 9 – Income Taxes

The Company’s effective income tax rate is a combination of federal, state and foreign tax rates and differs from the U.S. statutory rate due to taxes on foreign income, permanent differences including tax-exempt interest, and the resolution of tax uncertainties, offset by a valuation allowance against U.S. deferred income tax assets.

Note 10 – Capital Stock

Preferred stock

The Board of Directors is authorized to establish and designate different series of preferred stock and to fix and determine their voting powers and other rights and terms. A total of 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001 are authorized as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022. Of this total, 49,626 shares are designated as Series A Preferred Stock. There were nil shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding on June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Common Stock

The Company’s authorized common stock consists of 100,000,000 shares, par value of $0.001. There were 63,898,889 shares issued and 63,319,217 shares outstanding as of June 30, 2023, and 63,783,779 shares issued and 63,319,107 shares outstanding as of December 31, 2022.

In connection with the Atomistic Technology Licenses discussed in Note 6, the Company will, upon certain deliverables and the achievement of milestones contained in the Atomistic Agreements, be committed to pay $2,500,000 and to issue, depending on the Company’s share price within a $13.00 to $8.00 range at the time of their issuance, a minimum of 1,750,000 up to a maximum of 2,874,754 common shares of Vuzix to the stockholders of Atomistic (as a

12

portion of the consideration for certain shares of Atomistic) which would result in Vuzix owning Series A Preferred shares in Atomistic that could ultimately be converted into ordinary shares of Atomistic and Vuzix ultimately owning 100% of Atomistic. The share issuances by the Company are expected to be issued over the next 6 to 18 months.

Treasury Stock

On March 2, 2022, our Board of Directors approved the Company to repurchase up to an aggregate of $25 million of our common stock by open market or privately negotiated transactions under the Share Buyback Program.  This program was in effect for one year and expired on March 2, 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company repurchased 115,000 shares of our common stock at an average cost of $4.06, before commission of $0.03 per share. As of June 30, 2023, 579,672 shares of our common stock were held in treasury.

Note 11 – Stock-Based Compensation

The weighted average remaining contractual term for all options as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, was 6.94 years and 7.28 years, respectively.

As of June 30, 2023, there were 1,765,244 options that were fully vested and exercisable at a weighted average exercise price of $7.04 per share. The weighted average remaining contractual term of the vested options is 6.1 years.

As of June 30, 2023, there were 1,109,398 unvested options exercisable at a weighted average exercise price of $8.84 per share. The weighted average remaining contractual term of the unvested options is 8.3 years.

The weighted average fair value of option grants was calculated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing method. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $6,863,003 of unrecognized stock compensation expense, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years.

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company issued 96,525 shares of common stock to its independent board members as part of their annual retainer for services covering the period of July 2023 to June 2024. The fair market value on the date of award of the stock issued was $5.18, resulting in an aggregate fair value of approximately $500,000. The fair market value of these awards is expensed over twelve (12) months, beginning on July 1, 2023.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company recorded total stock-based compensation expense, including stock awards but excluding stock option awards under the Company’s LTIP, of $1,083,064 and $1,222,733, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company recorded total stock-based compensation expense, including stock awards but excluding stock option awards under the Company’s LTIP, of $2,212,630 and $2,573,343, respectively.

Note 12 – Long-Term Incentive Plan

On March 17, 2021, the Company granted options to purchase a total of 5,784,000 shares of common stock to its officers and certain other members of its management team. The options were granted under the Company’s existing 2014 Incentive Stock Plan. The options have an exercise price of $19.00, with 375,000 options vesting immediately and the remaining portion vesting upon the achievement of certain equity market capitalization milestones, and revenue and EBITDA operational milestones. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company recorded non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $1,749,687 and $2,658,294, respectively, for options that vested or are probable to vest. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company recorded non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $4,287,631 and $5,627,432, respectively, for options that vested or are probable to vest. These expenses are presented in the same financial statement line items in the Statements of Operations as the cash-based compensation expenses for the same employees.

The fair value of option grants was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation for the equity market capitalization tranches and the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing method for the operational milestone tranches. As of June 30, 2023, we had $12,922,301 of total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for the portion of options tied to equity market capitalization milestones and the portion of options tied to operational milestones that were considered probable of achievement, all of which will be recognized over a service period of up to three to four years. The probabilities of the milestone achievements are subject to catch-up adjustments in each instance where an equity market capitalization milestone is achieved or when an operational milestone becomes probable to be achieved or is achieved. Compensation costs could be reversed in subsequent periods if an awardee leaves the Company prior to the expiration of the option life for market capitalization milestone or performance award vesting of a performance award no longer determined to be probable. If such milestones are achieved earlier in their expected service periods, the remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to that particular milestone would be accelerated and recognized in full during the period where that achievement is affirmed by the Board of Directors. As of June 30, 2023, and going forward, should all of the operational milestones which are currently not yet deemed probable of achievement become probable of achievement or are achieved, then the Company could ultimately recognize up to an additional $34.1 million in non-cash stock-based compensation expense at such time.

The unvested remaining equity market and operational milestones under the LTIP with their total related option grants and criteria achievement weightings of the options available for meeting a target are shown in the following table. Of the total 5,409,000 unvested options outstanding as of June 30, 2023, there are 2,704,500 options unvested for the achievement of Equity Market Capitalization targets, 1,893,150 unvested options for the achievement of annual Revenue targets, and 811,350 unvested options for the achievement of annual EBITDA Margins Before Non-Cash Charges targets.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

As used in this report, unless otherwise indicated, the terms “Company,” “Vuzix”, “management,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to Vuzix Corporation.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Developments and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report. The preparation of these statements in conformity with GAAP requires the appropriate application of certain accounting policies, many of which require us to make estimates and assumptions about future events and their impact on amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements, including the statement of operations, balance sheet, cash flow and related notes. We continually evaluate our estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements, including those related to revenue recognition, bad debts, inventories, warranty reserves, product warranty, carrying value of long-lived assets, fair value measurement of financial instruments, valuation of stock compensation awards, achievement of equity market capitalization and probability of operational milestones being achieved under our LTIP, and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not apparent from other sources. Since future events and their impact cannot be determined with certainty, the actual results will inevitably differ from our estimates. Such differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that our application of accounting policies, and the estimates inherently required therein, are reasonable. We periodically re-evaluate these accounting policies and estimates and make adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. Historically, we have found our application of accounting policies to be appropriate, and actual results have not differed materially from those determined using such necessary estimates.

15

Management believes certain factors and trends are important in understanding our financial performance. The critical accounting policies, judgments and estimates that we believe have the most significant effect on our consolidated financial statements are:

Valuation of inventories;
Variable Interest Entities;
Business combinations;
Carrying value of long-lived assets;
Software development costs;
Revenue recognition;
Product warranty;
Stock-based compensation; and
Income taxes.

Our accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. There have been no significant changes in our accounting policies for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, an effect on our financial condition, financial statements, revenues or expenses.

Business Matters

We are engaged in the design, manufacture, marketing and sale of wearable computing devices and augmented reality wearable display devices, also referred to as head mounted displays (or HMDs), heads-up displays (HUDs) or near-eye displays, in the form of Smart Glasses and Augmented Reality (AR) glasses. Our wearable display devices are worn like eyeglasses or attach to a head-worn mount. These devices typically include cameras, sensors, and a computer that enable the user to view, record and interact with video and digital content, such as computer data, the internet, social media or entertainment applications. Our wearable display products integrate display technology with our advanced optics to produce compact high-resolution display engines, less than half an inch diagonally, which when viewed through our Smart Glasses products create virtual images that appear comparable in size to that of a computer monitor or a large-screen television.

With respect to our Smart Glasses and AR products, we are focused on the enterprise, industrial, commercial, security, first responder, medical, and defense markets. We also provide custom solutions and engineering services to third parties, including OEMs, of waveguides to enable fully-integrated wearable display systems, including HMDs to commercial, industrial and defense customers. We do not offer “work-for-hire” services per se but rather offer our engineering services for projects that we expect could result in advancing our technology and potentially lead to long-term supply or OEM relationships.

All of the mobile displays and wearable and mobile electronics markets in which we compete, including mobile and wearable displays and electronics, have been and continue to be subject to consistent and rapid technological change, with ever greater capabilities and performance, including mobile devices with larger screen sizes and improved display resolutions as well as, in many cases, reductions in pricing for mobile devices. As a result, we must continue to

16

improve our products’ performance and lower our costs. We believe our intellectual property portfolio gives us a leadership position in the design and manufacturing of micro-display projection engines, waveguides, mechanical packaging, ergonomics, and optical systems.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, gross profit from total sales was $972,386 or 21% as compared to $265,409 or 9% in the comparable period in 2022.

Unapplied manufacturing overhead costs, not already added in cost of sales, increased by $25,975 or 8% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 over the 2022 comparable period. Such costs, however, decreased as a percentage of total sales to 8% as compared to 11% in 2022. The increase in the net dollar amount of these unapplied overhead costs in the current period versus the prior period was primarily driven by upgrades to the opening balance of finished goods that were processed in the second quarter, despite our M400 production levels.

Depreciation and amortization expense in cost of sales increased by $26,776 or 12% because new manufacturing equipment was brought online in the second quarter as compared to the comparable 2022 period, when such activity was classified as construction-in-progress.

18

Research and Development.  Our research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation costs for personnel, including non-cash stock-based compensation expenses, third-party services, purchase of research supplies and materials, and consulting fees related to research and development. Software development expenses to determine technical feasibility before final development and ongoing maintenance are not capitalized and are included in research and development expenses.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023, decreased by $159,592 or 5%, as compared to the comparable period in 2022.

Selling and Marketing.   Selling and marketing expenses consist of trade show costs, advertising, sales samples, travel costs, sales staff compensation costs including non-cash stock-based compensation expense, consulting fees, public relations agency fees, website costs, and sales commissions paid to full-time staff and outside consultants.

Other Income (Expense), Net. Total other income was $562,712 for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to other expense of $20,687 in the comparable period in 2022, an increase of $583,399. The overall increase in other income was primarily the result of an increase of $517,896 in investment income resulting from the recent rise in interest rates earned on the Company’s excess cash period-over-period; and a decrease in foreign exchange losses of $69,597.

Provision for Income Taxes. There was not a provision for income taxes in the respective three-month periods ending June 30, 2023, and 2022.

The overall increase in other income was primarily the result of an increase of $1,207,399 in investment income resulting from the recent rise in interest rates earned on the Company’s excess cash period over period; and a decrease in foreign exchange losses of $118,988; partially offset by an increase of $44,256 in income and other taxes.

Provision for Income Taxes. There was not a provision for income taxes in the respective six-month periods ending June 30, 2023, and 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Capital Resources: As of June 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $48,582,005, a decrease of $23,981,938 from $72,563,943 as of December 31, 2022.

As of June 30, 2023, we had current assets of $68,321,314 as compared to current liabilities of $6,825,090 which resulted in a positive working capital position of $61,496,224. As of December 31, 2022, we had a working capital position of $75,963,883. Our current liabilities are comprised principally of accounts payable, accrued expenses, licensing fee commitments, and operating lease right-of-use liabilities.

Net changes in working capital items were $2,226,731 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, with the largest factors resulting from a $3,027,270 increase in trade accounts receivables and accrued revenue in excess of billings, partially offset by receipt of $466,705 for our Employee Retention Credit, which was filed with the IRS in November 2022; a $562,818 decrease in inventory and vendor prepayments; and a $232,619 decrease in trade accounts payable and accrued expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we used a total of $11,016,909 in cash for operating activities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we used a total of $8,402,617 in cash for investing activities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we used $202,552 in net cash for financing activities.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company does not have any current or long-term debt obligations outstanding other than licensing fee commitments totaling $3,500,000, which are all current.

23

The Company’s cash requirements are primarily for funding operating losses, working capital, research and development, capital expenditures, and licensing fee commitments. We incurred a net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2023, of $19,285,503 (of which $6,500,261 was related to non-cash stock-based compensation) and for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 of $40,763,573 (of which $15,775,553 was related to non-cash stock-based compensation) and $40,377,160 (of which $17,302,833 was related to non-cash stock-based compensation), respectively. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $263,507,583 as of June 30, 2023.

Our operations have historically been financed primarily through net proceeds from the sale of our equity securities. As of June 30, 2023, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of cash and cash equivalents of $48,582,005.

Forward Looking Statements

This quarterly report includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Safe Harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning:

trends in our operating expenses, including personnel costs, research and development expense, sales and marketing expense, and general and administrative expense;
the effect of competitors and competition in our markets;
our wearable smart glasses products and their market acceptance and future potential;
our ability to develop, timely introduce, and effectively manage the introduction of new products and services or improve our existing products and services;
expected technological advances by us or by third parties and our ability to leverage them;
our ability to attract and retain customers;
our ability to accurately forecast consumer demand and adequately manage our inventory;
our ability to deliver an adequate supply of product to meet demand;
our ability to maintain and promote our brand and expand brand awareness;
our ability to detect, prevent, or fix defects in our products;
our reliance on third-party suppliers, contract manufacturers and logistics providers and our limited control over such parties;
trends in revenue, costs of revenue, and gross margin and our possible or assumed future results of operations;
our ability to attract and retain highly skilled employees;
the impact of foreign currency exchange rates;
the effect of future regulations;
the sufficiency of our existing cash and cash equivalent balances and cash flow from operations to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs for at least the next twelve (12) months; and
general market, political, economic, business and public health conditions.

24

All statements in this quarterly report that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements. We may, in some cases, use terms such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “projects,” “should,” “will,” “would” or similar expressions that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes to identify forward-looking statements.

All such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties and should be evaluated in light of important risk factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These risk factors include, but are not limited to, those described in “Risk Factors” in this report and under Item 1A and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the following: business and economic conditions, rapid technological changes accompanied by frequent new product introductions, competitive pressures, dependence on key customers, inability to gauge order flows from customers, fluctuations in quarterly and annual results, the reliance on a limited number of third-party suppliers, limitations of our manufacturing capacity and arrangements, the protection of our proprietary technology, the effects of pending or threatened litigation, the dependence on key personnel, changes in critical accounting estimates, potential impairments related to investments, foreign regulations, liquidity issues, and potential material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. Further, during weak or uncertain economic periods, customers may delay the placement of their orders. These factors often result in a substantial portion of our revenue being derived from orders placed within a quarter and shipped in the final month of the same quarter.

We caution readers to carefully consider such factors. Many of these factors are beyond our control. In addition, any forward-looking statements represent our estimates only as of the date they are made and should not be relied upon as representing our estimates as of any subsequent date. While we may elect to update forward-looking statements at some point in the future, except as may be required under applicable securities laws, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We invest our excess cash in high-quality short-term corporate debt instruments, which bear lower levels of relative risk. We believe that the effect, if any, of possible near-term changes in interest rates on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows should not be material to our cash flows or income. It is possible that interest rate movements would increase our unrealized gain or loss on interest rate securities. We are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates primarily through transaction gains and losses as a result of non-U.S. dollar denominated cash flows related to business activities in Japan and Europe. We do not currently hedge our foreign currency exchange rate risk. We estimate that any market risk associated with our international operations is unlikely to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operation.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), has performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures that are defined in Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation included consideration of the controls, processes, and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is properly recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our management, including our CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at June 30, 2023.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal

25

quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.Legal Proceedings

We are not currently involved in any actual or pending legal proceedings or litigation that we consider to be material, and we are not aware of any such proceedings contemplated by or against us or involving our property.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this report you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. There have been no material changes from those risk factors. The risks discussed in our 2022 Annual Report could materially affect our business, financial condition and future results.

Item 2.Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Sale of Unregistered Securities

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company issued 96,525 shares of common stock to its independent board members as part of their annual retainer for services covering the period of July 2023 to June 2024. In connection with the foregoing, the Company relied upon the exemption from registration for transactions not involving a public offering.

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Vuzix Corporation (“the Company” or “Vuzix”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain re-classifications have been made to prior comparable periods to conform with current reporting impacting Costs of Sales, Gross Profit and Depreciation and Amortization. The results of the Company’s operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results of the Company’s operations for the full fiscal year or any other period.

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2023.

Re-classification of Prior Year Presentation

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations. An adjustment has been made to the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, to reclassify depreciation expense related to our manufacturing operations from the amounts of reported depreciation and amortization expenses originally included in Operating Expenses. This change in classification does not affect previously reported Net Loss or reported Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows or Consolidated Balance Sheets. The below table is a summary of the impact of these re-classifications:

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, two customers represented 40% and 35% of total product revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, one customer represented 24% of total product revenue.

As of June 30, 2023, two customers represented 58% and 23% of accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2022, one customer represented 26% of accounts receivable.

Treasury Stock

Treasury stock purchases are accounted for under the cost method whereby the entire cost of the acquired stock is recorded as treasury stock. Gains and losses on the subsequent re-issuance of shares will be credited or charged to paid-in capital in excess of par value using the average-cost method.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). ASU 2016-13 provides for a new impairment model which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments, including but not limited to, accounts receivable. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 effective on January 1, 2023. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Significant Judgments

Under Topic 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, we use judgments that could potentially impact both the timing of our satisfaction of performance obligations and our determination of transaction prices used in determining revenue recognized by major product line. Such judgments include considerations in determining our transaction prices and when our performance obligations are satisfied for our standard product sales that include an end-user 30-day right to return if not satisfied with product and general payment terms that are between Net 30 and 60 days. For our engineering services, performance obligations are recognized over time using the input method and the estimated costs to complete each project are considered significant judgments.

Performance Obligations

Revenues from our performance obligations are typically satisfied at a point-in-time for Smart Glasses, Waveguides and Display Engines, and our OEM Products, which are recognized when the customer obtains control and ownership, which is generally upon shipment. The Company considers shipping and handling activities performed to be fulfillment activities and not a separate performance obligation. The Company also records revenue for performance obligations relating to our engineering services over time by using the input method measuring progress toward satisfying the performance obligations. Satisfaction of our performance obligations related to our engineering services is

measured by the Company’s costs incurred as a percentage of total expected costs to project completion as the inputs of actual costs incurred by the Company are directly correlated with progress toward completing the contract. As such, the Company believes that our methodologies for recognizing revenue over time for our engineering services correlate directly with the transfer of control of the underlying assets to our customers.

Our standard product sales include a twelve (12) month assurance-type product warranty. In the case of certain of our OEM products and waveguide sales, some include a standard product warranty of up to eighteen (18) months to allow distribution channels to offer the end customer a full twelve (12) months of coverage. We offer extended warranties to customers, which extend the standard product warranty on product sales for an additional twelve (12) month period. All revenue related to extended product warranty sales is deferred and recognized over the extended warranty period. Our engineering services contracts vary from contract to contract but typically include payment terms of Net 30 days from the date of billing, subject to an agreed upon customer acceptance period.

The following table presents a summary of the Company’s sales by revenue recognition method as a percentage of total net sales for the six months ended June 30:

Remaining Performance Obligations

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had approximately $80,000 of remaining performance obligations under a current waveguide development project, which represents the remainder of the total transaction price of approximately $800,000 under this development agreement, which commenced in 2022, less revenue recognized under percentage of completion to date. The Company expects to recognize the remaining revenue related to this project in the third quarter of 2023. Revenues earned less amounts invoiced at June 30, 2023 in the amount of $309,762 are reflected as Accrued Revenues in Excess of Billings in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The Company had no material outstanding performance obligations related to product sales, other than its standard product warranty.

Loss Per Share  
Loss Per Share

Note 3 – Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution from the assumed exercise of stock options. During periods of net loss, all common stock equivalents are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because they are anti-dilutive. Since the Company reported a net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the calculation for basic and diluted earnings per share is considered to be the same, as the impact of potential common shares is anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were 8,658,642 and 8,528,668 common stock share equivalents, respectively, potentially exercisable or issuable under conversion or exercise of stock options that could dilute basic earnings per share in the future.

The weighted average remaining contractual term for all options as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, was 6.94 years and 7.28 years, respectively.

As of June 30, 2023, there were 1,765,244 options that were fully vested and exercisable at a weighted average exercise price of $7.04 per share. The weighted average remaining contractual term of the vested options is 6.1 years.

As of June 30, 2023, there were 1,109,398 unvested options exercisable at a weighted average exercise price of $8.84 per share. The weighted average remaining contractual term of the unvested options is 8.3 years.

The weighted average fair value of option grants was calculated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing method. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $6,863,003 of unrecognized stock compensation expense, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years.

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company issued 96,525 shares of common stock to its independent board members as part of their annual retainer for services covering the period of July 2023 to June 2024. The fair market value on the date of award of the stock issued was $5.18, resulting in an aggregate fair value of approximately $500,000. The fair market value of these awards is expensed over twelve (12) months, beginning on July 1, 2023.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company recorded total stock-based compensation expense, including stock awards but excluding stock option awards under the Company’s LTIP, of $1,083,064 and $1,222,733, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company recorded total stock-based compensation expense, including stock awards but excluding stock option awards under the Company’s LTIP, of $2,212,630 and $2,573,343, respectively.

Long-Term Incentive Plan

Note 12 – Long-Term Incentive Plan

On March 17, 2021, the Company granted options to purchase a total of 5,784,000 shares of common stock to its officers and certain other members of its management team. The options were granted under the Company’s existing 2014 Incentive Stock Plan. The options have an exercise price of $19.00, with 375,000 options vesting immediately and the remaining portion vesting upon the achievement of certain equity market capitalization milestones, and revenue and EBITDA operational milestones. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company recorded non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $1,749,687 and $2,658,294, respectively, for options that vested or are probable to vest. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company recorded non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $4,287,631 and $5,627,432, respectively, for options that vested or are probable to vest. These expenses are presented in the same financial statement line items in the Statements of Operations as the cash-based compensation expenses for the same employees.

The fair value of option grants was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation for the equity market capitalization tranches and the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing method for the operational milestone tranches. As of June 30, 2023, we had $12,922,301 of total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for the portion of options tied to equity market capitalization milestones and the portion of options tied to operational milestones that were considered probable of achievement, all of which will be recognized over a service period of up to three to four years. The probabilities of the milestone achievements are subject to catch-up adjustments in each instance where an equity market capitalization milestone is achieved or when an operational milestone becomes probable to be achieved or is achieved. Compensation costs could be reversed in subsequent periods if an awardee leaves the Company prior to the expiration of the option life for market capitalization milestone or performance award vesting of a performance award no longer determined to be probable. If such milestones are achieved earlier in their expected service periods, the remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to that particular milestone would be accelerated and recognized in full during the period where that achievement is affirmed by the Board of Directors. As of June 30, 2023, and going forward, should all of the operational milestones which are currently not yet deemed probable of achievement become probable of achievement or are achieved, then the Company could ultimately recognize up to an additional $34.1 million in non-cash stock-based compensation expense at such time.

The unvested remaining equity market and operational milestones under the LTIP with their total related option grants and criteria achievement weightings of the options available for meeting a target are shown in the following table. Of the total 5,409,000 unvested options outstanding as of June 30, 2023, there are 2,704,500 options unvested for the achievement of Equity Market Capitalization targets, 1,893,150 unvested options for the achievement of annual Revenue targets, and 811,350 unvested options for the achievement of annual EBITDA Margins Before Non-Cash Charges targets.

Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain re-classifications have been made to prior comparable periods to conform with current reporting impacting Costs of Sales, Gross Profit and Depreciation and Amortization. The results of the Company’s operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results of the Company’s operations for the full fiscal year or any other period.

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2023.

Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation

Re-classification of Prior Year Presentation

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations. An adjustment has been made to the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, to reclassify depreciation expense related to our manufacturing operations from the amounts of reported depreciation and amortization expenses originally included in Operating Expenses. This change in classification does not affect previously reported Net Loss or reported Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows or Consolidated Balance Sheets. The below table is a summary of the impact of these re-classifications:
