BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Basis of Accounting [Text Block]
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Kopin Corporation, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Kowon Technology Co., Ltd. (Kowon), a majority owned (93%) subsidiary located in Korea, Ikanos Consulting Ltd. (Ikanos), a majority owned (58%) subsidiary located in the United Kingdom, and eMDT America Inc. (eMDT), a majority owned (80%) subsidiary located in California (collectively, the “Company”). Ownership interests of Kowon, Ikanos and eMDT not attributable to the Company are referred to as noncontrolling interests. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 28, 2014 and June 29, 2013 are unaudited and include all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the results of operations for the periods then ended. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2013.
During the first quarter of 2013, the Company paid approximately $3.7 million to acquire an additional 15% ownership in its Kowon subsidiary from the minority shareholders, as part of the Company's plan to close Kowon. As of June 28, 2014 and December 28, 2013, the sale of the facility does not meet the criteria for assets held for sale based on the anticipated time to sell the facility.
During the second quarter of 2014, the Company paid approximately $0.3 million to acquire an additional 29% ownership in its eMDT subsidiary.
The results of the Company's operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of the Company's operations for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contract with Customers (Topic 606). The reporting standard requires the Company to identify the performance obligations in a contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to each of the obligations and then recognizes the transaction price as the obligations are fulfilled. The standard also requires certain new disclosures. The standard is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.
During the six months ended June 28, 2014, the change in the Company's accumulated other comprehensive income was the net of $0.1 million foreign currency translation adjustment and $0.1 million unrealized holding gains on marketable securities.

Discontinued Operations
On January 16, 2013 (the Closing Date), the Company sold its III-V product line, including all of the outstanding equity interest in KTC Wireless, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, to IQE KC, LLC and IQE plc pursuant to a Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) entered into on January 10, 2013, for a net purchase price of $70.2 million and the gain on the sale, net of tax, was $20.4 million. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, $55 million was paid to the Company in January 2013, $0.2 million was paid in April 2013 and the remaining $15.0 million will be paid to the Company on the third anniversary of the Closing Date. The Company has recorded the $15.0 million receivable at the discounted value of $14.8 million, at the date of disposition. The Company is accreting this balance over the three year period.
The operating results of the III-V product line prior to the sale are reported within income from discontinued operations, net of tax, in the consolidated statement of operations.
The following table summarizes the results from discontinued operations (in millions) for the six months ended June 29, 2013:

CASH AND EQUIVALENTS AND MARKETABLE SECURITIES
CASH AND EQUIVALENTS AND MARKETABLE SECURITIES
CASH AND EQUIVALENTS AND MARKETABLE SECURITIES
The Company considers all highly liquid, short-term debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Marketable debt securities consist primarily of certificates of deposit, medium-term corporate debt, and United States government and agency backed securities. The Company classifies these marketable debt securities as available-for-sale in “Marketable Debt Securities”. The Company records the amortization of premium and accretion of discount on marketable debt securities in the results of operations.
The Company uses the specific identification method as a basis for determining cost and calculating realized gains and losses with respect to marketable debt securities. The gross gains and losses realized related to sales and maturities of marketable debt securities were not material during the six months ended June 28, 2014 and the year ended December 28, 2013.
Investments in available-for-sale marketable debt securities are as follows at June 28, 2014 and December 28, 2013:

The Company conducts a review of its marketable debt securities on a quarterly basis for the presence of other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI). The Company assesses whether OTTI is present when the fair value of a debt security is less than its amortized cost basis at the balance sheet date. Under these circumstances OTTI is considered to have occurred (1) if the Company intends to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; (2) if it is “more likely than not” the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or (3) the present value of expected cash flows is not sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis.
The Company further estimates the amount of OTTI resulting from a decline in the credit worthiness of the issuer (credit-related OTTI) and the amount of non credit-related OTTI. Noncredit-related OTTI can be caused by such factors as market illiquidity. Credit-related OTTI is recognized in earnings while noncredit-related OTTI on securities not expected to be sold is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). The Company did not record an OTTI for the three and six months ended June 28, 2014 and June 29, 2013.
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Financial instruments are categorized as Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 based upon the method by which their fair value is computed. An investment is categorized as Level 1 when its fair value is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. An investment is categorized as Level 2 if its fair market value is based on quoted market prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, based on observable inputs such as interest rates, yield curves, or derived from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. An investment is categorized as Level 3 if its fair value is based on assumptions developed by the Company about what a market participant would use in pricing the assets.

The corporate debt consists of floating rate notes with a maturity that is over multiple years but has interest rates which are reset every three months based on the then current three month London Interbank Offering Rate (three month Libor). The Company validates the fair market values of the financial instruments above by using discounted cash flow models, obtaining independent pricing of the securities or through the use of a model which incorporates the three month Libor, the credit default swap rate of the issuer and the bid and ask price spread of the same or similar investments which are traded on several markets.
The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term nature.  If accrued liabilities were carried at fair value, these would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

NET (LOSS) INCOME PER SHARE
NET (LOSS) INCOME PER SHARE
NET (LOSS) INCOME PER SHARE
Basic net (loss) income per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period less any non-vested restricted shares. Diluted earnings per common share, if applicable, is calculated using weighted average shares outstanding and contingently issuable shares, less weighted average shares reacquired during the period. The net outstanding shares are adjusted for the dilutive effect of shares issuable upon the assumed conversion of the Company’s common stock equivalents, which consist of outstanding stock options and unvested restricted stock units.
Weighted average common shares outstanding used to calculate earnings per share are as follows:

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The fair value of non-vested restricted common stock awards is generally the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The non-vested common stock awards require the employee to fulfill certain obligations, including remaining employed by the Company for one, two or four years (the vesting period) and in certain cases also require meeting either performance criteria or the Company’s stock achieving a certain price. For non-vested restricted common stock awards which solely require the recipient to remain employed with the Company, the stock compensation expense is amortized over the anticipated service period. For non-vested restricted common stock awards which require the achievement of performance criteria, the Company reviews the probability of achieving the performance goals on a periodic basis. If the Company determines that it is probable that the performance criteria will be achieved, the amount of compensation cost derived for the performance goal is amortized over the anticipated service period. If the performance criteria are not met, no compensation cost is recognized and any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed. The Company recognizes compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for time-vested awards.
During the six months ended June 28, 2014, the 2010 Equity Plan was amended to increase the number of authorized shares by 1.9 million.
A summary of award activity under the stock option plans as of June 28, 2014 and changes during the six month period then ended is as follows (all options were vested as of June 28, 2014):

INCOME TAXES
The Company’s tax provision of approximately $37,000 and tax benefit of approximately $106,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 28, 2014 represent the net movement in estimated foreign withholding taxes due on an international subsidiary.
For the three and six month periods ended June 29, 2013, discontinued operations reflects the gain on the sale of the III-V product line and investment in KTC. The Company has federal net operating loss carryforwards which may be used to offset the gain on the sale of the III-V product line and investment in KTC. The federal tax benefit from the utilization of the net operating losses is shown in the Company's tax provision in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, intraperiod tax allocation provisions require allocation of a tax expense to the gain on discontinued operations based upon the Company's statutory tax rate. The Company has net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards available to offset the tax expense. The benefit of these NOLs is reflected in the tax benefit from continuing operations. Accordingly, the Company recorded a tax expense in discontinued operations and a benefit in continuing operations of approximately $13.1 million in 2013.
As of June 28, 2014, the Company has available for tax purposes U.S. federal NOLs of approximately $57.8 million expiring through 2033. The Company has recognized a full valuation allowance on its domestic and certain foreign net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of realization of such assets. The Company has not historically recorded, nor does it intend to record the tax benefits from stock awards until realized. Unrecorded benefits from stock awards approximate $10.0 million.
The Company’s income tax returns have not been examined by the Internal Revenue Service and are subject to examination for all years since 2002. State income tax returns are generally subject to examination for a period of 3 to 5 years after filing of the respective return. The state impact of any federal changes remains subject to examination by various states for a period of up to one year after formal notification to the states.
