ROCHESTER, N.Y., November 13, 2025 – Vuzix® Corporation (NASDAQ: VUZI) (“Vuzix” or the “Company”), a leading supplier of AI-powered smart glasses, waveguides and Augmented Reality (AR) technologies, today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, and provided updates on its strategic progress.

“During the third quarter of 2025, Vuzix met all the manufacturing and performance requirements tied to the receipt of the third Quanta investment tranche and received $5 million from them, bringing Quanta’s investment to $20 million to support both enterprise and consumer smart glasses and related OEM waveguide initiatives. We are also now in discussions with Quanta on further means by which to ramp activities to support the development and scaling of next-generation AI smart glasses as this industry begins to accelerate,” said Paul Travers, President and CEO of Vuzix.

“We appointed Dr. Chris Parkinson, co-founder and former CTO/CEO of RealWear, as President of Vuzix’ Enterprise Solutions business to take advantage of the recent customer shift from push to pull and convert demand into deployments. Chris’ mandate spans the entire enterprise stack, including product portfolio and roadmap, solutions architecture, sales, strategic partnerships, customer adoption, and global channels, so we can capture the clear, measurable value smart glasses deliver in the enterprise: higher productivity, faster time-to-resolution, better safety, and more consistent quality.”

“Additionally, we received the first wave of purchase orders from a leading global online retailer to begin utilizing Vuzix smart glasses to support their maintenance programs in the U.S. and Canada, with deliveries ramping significantly in Q4 2025 after months of validation testing. We were also awarded a six-figure development order for customized waveguides powering a new lightweight HUD for military personnel from a leading U.S. defense contractor,” said Mr. Travers.

“At the same time, cost discipline remains a cornerstone of Vuzix’ strategy. The Company achieved a 22% year-over-year reduction in quarterly total operating expenses during the third quarter, enhancing financial efficiency and extending our operational runway,” noted Mr. Travers.

Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, total revenues decreased by 16% to $1.2 million versus $1.4 million for the comparable period in 2024. The decrease was the result of a 9% decrease in smart glasses products sales, primarily M400 smart glasses, and a 33% decrease in engineering services revenues as compared to the prior year’s third quarter.

There was an overall gross loss of $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to a gross loss of $0.3 million for the same period in 2024. The $0.2 million increase in gross loss was primarily the result of lower revenues which did not allow the Company to adequately absorb relatively fixed manufacturing overheads.

Research and Development expense was $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, versus $2.3 million for the comparable 2024 period, an increase of approximately 26% primarily due to higher external development costs for new products and depreciation expense, partially offset by lower non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

Selling and Marketing expense was $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, versus $1.8 million for the comparable 2024 period, a decrease of approximately 35%. The drop was primarily due to a reduction in bad debt expense, a recovery of previously written-off bad debt, and a decline in non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

General and Administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $2.6 million versus $4.3 million for the comparable 2024 period, a decrease of approximately 41%. The decrease was largely due to a reduction in non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

Total operating expenses for the quarter were down 22% year-over-year.

The net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $7.4 million, or $0.09 cents per share versus a net loss of $9.2 million, or $0.14 cents per share for the comparable period in 2024.

Net cash flows used in operating activities were $5.0 million for the third quarter of 2025 versus $5.3 million for the comparable 2024 period. As of September 30, 2025, the Company held cash and cash equivalents of $22.6 million and an overall working capital position of $24.3 million.

Management Outlook

“Looking ahead, both our enterprise business and OEM pipeline continue to build, with defense and security remaining core leading initiatives,” continued Mr. Travers. “For Q4 2025, we expect robust year-over-year and sequential growth across product revenue and engineering services, driven by progress on several in-flight OEM programs and by fulfilling a high six-figure smart-glasses backlog for a leading global online retailer.”

“Strategically, we are advancing our OEM-driven model while scaling our direct enterprise deployments. Our partnership with Quanta, combined with advancements in waveguide manufacturing, positions Vuzix to meet rising demand for scalable, high-performance AI smart-glasses. At CES 2026, we plan to showcase our latest co-developed concepts with OEM partners, highlighting the versatility of our technology and the breadth of applications it enables,” concluded Mr. Travers.
