Defense product revenues increased 28%, partially offset by a 17% decrease in Industrial product revenues.

The company held $21.8 million in cash and equivalents as of March 30.

Michael Murray, Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We continue to believe that 2024 revenues will have double digit-growth as the first quarter marked the entrance of new customers and projects, including a new development project with the Navy Air Warfare Center for research in advanced high frame rate lens-less display architectures. Also in the first quarter, Kopin received a $20.5M order for a new weapon sight configuration deliverable in 2024 and 2025. Furthermore, the company also received a $1.4M order for a specialized weapon sight."

Outlook: Kopin expects double-digit revenue growth in 2024 Y/Y against analyst consensus of $45.49 million.
