New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of British stocks, typically moving 12% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. It may also indicate the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-US$21m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (12% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 14% per year over the past 5 years.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 18% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-US$20m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (12% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 18% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable next year (US$34m net loss next year). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (US$59k sold). New Risk • Mar 06
New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: US$59k This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-US$20m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (12% average weekly change).

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 18% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-US$27m free cash flow).

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 16% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-US$44m free cash flow). Earnings have declined by 16% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (9.6% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (2.2% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (US$61.5m market cap). Ankündigung • Aug 13

New major risk - Financial position The company has less than a year of cash runway based on its current free cash flow trend. Free cash flow: -US$44m This is considered a major risk.

Vuzix Corporation Announces its Intention to Offer High Durability Plastic Waveguide Design and Production Capabilities Vuzix Corporation announced that the Company intends to offer the design and manufacture of diffractive waveguides using plastic, in addition to glass. Vuzix will be displaying new early samples of these waveguides during Augmented World Expo USA 2024 (AWE), by appointment only, which begins and runs through June 20 at the Long Beach Convention & Entertainment Center in Long Beach, California. Plastic waveguides offer several potential advantages over glass, most notably greater impact resistance and lighter weight. They can offer refractive indexes of 1.70 or greater, below that of high-index glass formulations, but still sufficient for certain field of view (FOV) waveguide configurations. Like glass, plastic waveguides can be made extremely flat, which is necessary for adding integrated vision correction. Ankündigung • Jun 15
Vuzix Revolutionizes the Display Technology Industry with Introduction of Large Format Waveguide Design and Manufacturing Vuzix Corporation announced that it now has the unique capability to design and produce large format waveguides in its waveguide production facility, a cutting-edge innovation that will redefine the way heads-up visual content is experienced.

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 2.4% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable next year (US$37m net loss next year). Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (9.2% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (2.4% increase in shares outstanding). New Risk • Feb 23
New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: US$99.7m This is considered a minor risk. Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable next year (US$37m net loss next year). Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (9.0% average weekly change). Market cap is less than US$100m (US$99.7m market cap). Ankündigung • Jan 30

The systems are not all located in one physical location, and not all members of the team have the same skill sets meaning that it can sometime be difficult to align personnel with the necessary platform. In the current COVID-19 global pandemic, this situation is made even more challenging as its team is working in "bio-bubbles" with one group active on-site and another located at home. Moreover, due to COVID-19, all one-on-one in-person user training and support for this program was due to be suspended unless another method of training and support could be put in place. Much of the research work that the team performs in the laboratory is hands-on and requires complete freedom of both hands to operate the systems and conduct experiments safely and effectively. After extensive research, Dr. Andrew Filby, Director of the Newcastle Flow Cytometry Core and Lead of the Innovation, Methodology and Innovations Research Theme, and his team chose the Vuzix M400 Smart Glasses to provide remote support and training to the team. While still enabling a hands-free working environment, the M400 Smart Glasses, which also can be configured with safety glasses, ensured they that they were safe to use in a BioSafety level 2 laboratory.
