Vuzix Corporation (TSX-V: VZX) (OTCBB: VUZI)
(FRANKFURT: V7X)
("Vuzix" or, the "Company"),
today reported its fourth quarter and year-end results for the
period ending December 31, 2010.
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with
United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").
All figures are presented in United States dollars.
Fourth quarter revenues of $5,552,356 compared to revenues of
$3,965,550 for the same period last year, an increase of 40%. The
net loss for the fourth quarter of 2010 was $(476,085) or $(0.0018)
per share versus a net loss of $(894,413) or $(0.0035) per share
for the same quarterly period in 2009.
For the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2010 revenues
were $12,255,414 versus $11,886,098 in 2009, a rise of 3.1%. The
net loss for the twelve-month period was $4,572,072 or $0.0173 per
share versus a net loss of $3,250,424 or $0.0151 per share for
2009.
Paul Travers, President, commented, "Certainly, the fourth
quarter is our strongest quarter seasonally and our company
achieved revenue growth for the fourth quarter while operating
under considerable working capital constraints. Our recent capital
raising activities, including $4 million raised just prior to the
close of the 2010 fiscal year and our recently announced $2 million
revolving credit facility, position the company on a firmer basis
for the 2011 year."
The Company ended the 2010 year with an order backlog of
primarily Defense related products and expects revenues for Q1 to
be up approximately 90% over the same period of 2010. However the
Company is not offering any outlook for the rest of the year.
