Disaggregated Revenue

The Company’s total revenue was comprised of two major product categories: Products Sales (which include smart glasses, software, and accessories) and Engineering Services (which include engineering services fees and related ODM/OEM services and product sales, as well as waveguide and display engine component sales). The following table summarizes the revenue recognized by product line:

Significant Judgments

Under Topic 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, we use judgments that could potentially impact both the timing of our satisfaction of performance obligations and our determination of transaction prices used in determining revenue recognized by major product line. Such judgments include considerations in determining our transaction prices and when our performance obligations are satisfied for our standard product sales. For our Engineering Services, performance obligations are recognized over time using the input method, and the estimated costs to complete each project are considered significant judgments.

Performance Obligations

Revenues from our performance obligations are typically satisfied at a point-in-time for Product Sales, which are recognized when the customer obtains control and ownership, which is generally upon shipment. The Company considers shipping and handling activities performed to be fulfillment activities and not a separate performance obligation. The Company also records revenue for performance obligations relating to our Engineering Services both at a point-in-time and over time. For those performance obligations recognized over time, the input method is utilized for measuring progress toward satisfying the performance obligations. Satisfaction of these performance obligations is measured by the Company’s costs incurred as a percentage of total expected costs to project completion, as the inputs of actual costs incurred by the Company are directly correlated with progress toward completing the contract. As such, the Company believes that our methodologies for recognizing revenue both at a point-in-time and over time for our Engineering Services correlate directly with the transfer of control of the underlying assets to our customers.

Our standard product sales include a twelve (12) month assurance-type product warranty. In the case of certain OEM products and waveguide sales, some include a standard product warranty of up to eighteen (18) months to allow distribution channels to offer the end customer a full twelve (12) months of coverage. We offer an extended warranty to customers that extends the standard product warranty on product sales for an additional twelve (12) month period. All revenue related to extended product warranty sales is deferred and recognized over the extended warranty period. Our Engineering Services contracts vary from contract to contract but typically include payment terms of Net 30 days from the date of billing, subject to an agreed upon customer acceptance period.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were $47,025 and $109,725, respectively, in outstanding performance obligations remaining for extended warranties.

Remaining Performance Obligations

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $1,836,670 of remaining performance obligations under current waveguide and other development projects, including initial product production, which represents the remainder of transaction prices totaling $3,737,168 under these development projects, which commenced in 2023 and 2025, less revenue recognized under percentage of completion to date. The Company expects to recognize the remaining revenue related to these projects, based upon the following expected due dates: 37% in 2026 and 63% in 2027. Revenues earned less amounts invoiced at December 31, 2025, in the amount of $533,665 are reflected as Accrued Revenues in Excess of Billings in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had $2,051,502 of remaining performance obligations under a current waveguide development project, including its initial product production, which represents the remainder of transaction prices totaling $3,500,000 under this development project, which commenced in 2023, less revenue recognized under percentage of completion to date.

The Company had no material outstanding performance obligations related to product sales, other than its standard product warranty.

About Revenue Disclosures

Revenue disclosures under ASC 606 explain how a company identifies performance obligations, allocates transaction prices, and determines when revenue is recognized. This section is essential for understanding whether reported revenue reflects genuine economic activity or aggressive accounting choices. Analysts examine the mix of point-in-time versus over-time recognition, which directly affects revenue timing and comparability.

Key signals: rising contract liabilities (deferred revenue) suggest strong future revenue visibility, while declining contract assets may indicate slowing project milestones. Watch for variable consideration estimates — rebates, returns, and performance bonuses that require management judgment. Significant changes in disaggregated revenue by geography or product line can reveal shifting business mix before it appears in headline numbers. Compare revenue growth against contract liability growth to assess sustainability, and scrutinize any changes in the timing of recognition that coincide with earnings pressure.
