Company builds on momentum with significant year-over-year revenue
growth
REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Jul. 29, 2015–
MicroVision,
Inc. (NASDAQ:MVIS), a leader in innovative ultra-miniature
projection display and imaging technology, today announced its results
for the second quarter of 2015.
MicroVision continued to build on the strong momentum witnessed in 2014.
Revenue in the quarter was $4 million, showing significant growth both
year-over-year and sequentially. The company delivered three times as
many components to its Fortune Global 100 customer during the second
quarter as it did in the first quarter 2015. Revenue for the quarter was
comprised of component deliveries (product), royalties and contract
revenue: component deliveries and royalties accounted for $2.5 million
while $1.5 million was from contract revenue following completion of a
display module support services agreement with MicroVision’s Fortune
Global 100 customer.
In addition to increasing shipments of components, MicroVision continued
to engage in cooperative business development activities with its
Fortune Global 100 customer. Also during the second quarter, the company
continued to make solid progress developing product opportunities for
pico projection and other applications.
The following financial results are for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2015, compared to the same periods one year earlier.

Revenue was $4.0 million for the second quarter 2015 compared to
$611,000 for the second quarter a year ago. Revenue for the first half
of 2015 was $4.9 million, compared to $1.8 million for the first half
of 2014. -
Operating loss for the second quarter of 2015 was $2.8 million,
compared to $3.4 million for the second quarter a year ago. Operating
loss was $6.7 million for the first half of 2015, compared to $6.5
million for the first half of 2014. -
Net loss for the second quarter of 2015 was $2.8 million, or $0.06 per
share, compared to $3.4 million, or $0.08 per share, for the same
quarter a year ago. Net loss was $6.7 million, or $0.15 per share, for
the first half of 2015 compared to $11.4 million, or $0.29 per share,
