Vuzix reported Q2 2026 revenue of $1.1 million, down 14% year-over-year, comprising $0.9 million in product sales and $0.2 million in engineering services. The company posted a gross loss of $0.6 million versus a $0.8 million loss in Q2 2025—a 15% improvement. Net loss narrowed to $7.6 million or $0.09 per share from $7.7 million or $0.10 per share in Q2 2025. R&D expenses increased 20% to $3.1 million due to external development costs and headcount-related salary expenses, partially offset by an 11% decline in selling and marketing spend. Operationally, Vuzix delivered next-generation Ultralite Pro glasses to Amazon for testing, expanded M400 deployments, moved a Collins Aerospace program into production, and shipped initial waveguide-based systems to an automaker. Management emphasized the company's focus on waveguide innovation and AI-powered smart glasses, with no specific forward guidance provided. Cash position: $17.3 million with no debt.
