That said let’s get straight  into it and talk about Vuzix Corp  
[62]
(Nasdaq: VUZI) currently trading at  $8.67 with a market cap of $551m.  
[73]
It is down since we called it recently at $12 per  share following the Facebook Meta announcement.  
[79]
It picked up momentum breaking the $15 per share  price mark and it has since given up most of those  
[84]
gains and heading back towards 6m lows. It is down  by over 51% over that period which puts this top  
[90]
and award winning metaverse stock in deep deep  value territory in my view. I believe given its  
[96]
novelty, the concept of smart glasses technology  being used in the workplace is still new,  
[102]
which could be the reason for the  considerable volatility in its stock price.
[106]
Vuzix is a leading supplier of Smart Glasses and  Augmented Reality (AR) technologies and products  
[111]
for the consumer and enterprise markets. The  Company's products include personal display and  
[116]
wearable computing devices that offer users  a portable high-quality viewing experience,  
[121]
provide solutions for mobility,  wearable displays and augmented reality.  
[126]
They create smart glasses primarily  used in the healthcare, manufacturing,  
[130]
warehousing, and field service industries and  the glasses can help the field service industry  
[135]
by providing real-time instructions  to a field agent via the lenses.
[140]
The Company has won Consumer Electronics  Show (or CES) awards for innovation  
[144]
for the years 2003 to 2021 and several wireless  technology innovation awards among others  
[150]
and they cant stop winning as they are  now the latest recipients of 2 new awards  
[155]
for Portable Media Players & Accessories Award and  Computer Peripherals & Accessories Award for 2022.  
[162]
What an outstanding track record. Vuzix remains an  innovative force in the AR/smart glasses industry,  
[168]
and these awards mark the 18th straight  year they have been honored at the CES.  
[173]
That’s a span longer than many of their  competitors have been in existence.
[177]
Vuzix Shield is the new product line name for  the Company’s next generation smart glasses.  
[183]
And this next generation brings the  perfect combination of style and function  
[186]
with Enhanced fully wireless connectivity made  even more dynamic which is a key enabler for the  
[192]
metaverse. With completely see-through advanced  waveguide optics and revolutionary micro-LED  
[198]
display engines that can be used indoors or  outside, Vuzix delivers the future in smart  
[202]
glasses. But before we go and further lets briefly  hear how you can access the metaverse with Vuzix.
[240]
Some really cool stuff but what’s even more  interesting is the application of Vuzix products  
[244]
across a wide range of applications  in and outside of the Metaverse.
[249]
Vuzix Received and Delivered Significant  Follow-on Smart Glasses Order  
[253]
to a Fortune 50 Global Retailer to Support  Warehousing and Logistics Operations.  
[258]
They announced that the Company has received  and delivered a follow-on smart glasses order  
[262]
valued at over $400,000 to a large global retailer  to support the solution’s full deployment at  
[268]
its first facility supporting the warehousing and logistics needs of this customer.
[272]
They say combined with the  ongoing growth of online shopping,  
[275]
attaining new productivity levels for product  transportation, inventory management and 
[278]
order fulfillment will become a  distinct competitive advantage.  
[282]
And so smart glasses are becoming a cost-effective  tool to facilitate these objectives.
[287]
Vuzix also Announced an Agreement with Verizon to  Deliver Augmented Reality with 5G and Mobile Edge  
[292]
Computing. They announced that the Company has  entered into an agreement with Verizon to leverage  
[297]
the power of Verizon’s 5G and edge computing  technologies, to deliver a first-of-its-kind  
[302]
augmented reality experience for sports and  gaming which I think is right up the metaverse  
[307]
experiences here. By leveraging Verizon's 5G  Edge and ultra-light weight AR smart glasses from  
[312]
Vuzix, they are delivering immersive technology in  the field of sports training and fan experience.
[319]
Vuzix was also recently Named One of America’s  Best Small Companies by Forbes on America’s  
[324]
top 100 small companies for 2022 in its recently  released list. Vuzix was ranked 69th on the list  
[331]
with a 52-week return of 223.7 percent. And  Forbes’ identified the best performers using data  
[336]
from FactSet, evaluating more than 1,000 companies  that have been public for more than a year,  
[341]
with a market value between  $300 million and $2 billion  
[345]
to find companies that had positive  sales growth over the past 12 months  
[348]
and a share price of at least $5. The top ranking  was determined based on earnings and sales growth,  
[354]
return on equity and total stock return  for the latest 12 months available.
[359]
What’s equally exciting is that all this  translates into top and bottom line growth  
[365]
as for the three months ended September 30,  2021, their total revenues increased by 9%  
[369]
to $3.0 million versus $2.8 million  for the comparable period in 2020.  
[375]
The increase was entirely due to higher sales of  Vuzix smart glasses products. There was an overall  
[381]
gross profit of $0.6 million or 19% of revenues  for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
[388]
They say they continue to see growing demand  across their product lines with an increasing  
[392]
number of proven use cases, and they have invested  to be best prepared to fulfill that demand.  
[397]
While they are pleased to report another period of  both sequential and year-over-year revenue growth,  
[402]
their third quarter sales came in  at the low end of our expectations  
[405]
largely due to shipping delays, external supply  chain challenges, and the timing of larger  
[410]
orders associated with several blue-chip  customers. So they continued to make good  
[414]
commercial progress with an expanding number of  Fortune 100 firms across multiple industries.
[419]
Regarding the Management outlook, they remain  focused on successfully completing multiple  
[423]
strategic initiatives that they believe will  accelerate the adoption of smart glasses,  
[428]
expand their business model, augment their  capabilities, and ultimately unlock significant  
[433]
value for Vuzix shareholders. They expect to  introduce four new smart glasses products in 2022,  
[439]
starting in the first quarter. “And for Q4, 21,  they anticipate another quarter of sequential  
[444]
revenue growth and they feel very confident  regarding their growth prospects for 2022.”
[449]
So with a market cap of over $500 million, Vuzix  stock may present a risky investment opportunity,  
[455]
relative to their present revenues, so the company  will need to grow substantially from here in order  
[460]
for this valuation to make sense. And whilst  this may seem like an uphill task, there are  
[465]
many reasons to be excited about Vuzi delivering  on their Promise as one of the STRONGEST Names  
[469]
in the Metaverse which include: their global  leadership in smartglasses and AR technology,  
[474]
Verizon partnership, Fortune 50  retailer partnerships and more.  
[479]
The industry is expected to grow rapidly at a CAGR  of over 31% to approximately $88.4 billion by 2026  
[486]
and the, demand for Smart AR glasses is expected  to reach about 20 million to 31 million units,  
[491]
it only gets better for Vuzix in my  view. And so with Vuzix revenues up  
[495]
by approximately 156% year over year , there  is hope that such trajectory would carry on.
[502]
In terms of a share structure, you can see how  all the major shareholders have reloaded their  
[506]
positions on the stock. The largest shareholder  being Cathie Woods Ark Invest Fund with over 7.4m  
[513]
equivalent to 11.6% of shares outstanding. All  the major institutional investors in Blackrock,  
[520]
Vanguard and State Street also  have a strong skin in this game.  
[523]
And equally exciting for me here is the  stake owned by the Paul Travers the CEO,  
[528]
who is the individual investor who and the 4th  largest shareholder with over 4.5% stake. So lots  
[532]
of skin in the game by management and insider  buys on this one with is very encouraging.
[537]
So some very very interesting and mindblowing  prospects ahead for this metaverse stocks  
[542]
but only consider getting in if the price is right  for you and if you fully understand the risks.
