Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
The information in this Current Report is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section. The information in this Current Report shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
On November 4, 2004, Microvision, Inc. issued a press release announcing its preliminary financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2004. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Exhibit 99.1 to this report contains a “non-GAAP financial measure” as defined in Item 10 of Regulation S-K of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The non-GAAP financial measure is Net loss per share before non-cash compensation expense. Management believes that Net loss per share before non-cash compensation, which information has been requested by investors, presents useful information to investors by showing the operating results before inclusion of a material non-cash expense that may be subject to substantial fluctuation from quarter to quarter as a result of the application of variable accounting treatment to non-cash compensation rather than changes in operating performance.
