                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION
     ---------------------

The financial statements for the nine month periods ended July 3, 1999 and June
27, 1998 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. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the June 27, 1998 amounts to conform
to the 1999 presentation. These consolidated financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (File No. 0-19882) for the year ended December 31, 1998.

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.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its
wholly-owned subsidiary and Kowon Technology Co., Ltd., a majority-owned (65%)
subsidiary located in Korea. All intercompany transactions and balances have
been eliminated.

2.   FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
     ----------------------------

Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. operations are translated into U.S. dollars
at period end exchange rates, and revenues and expenses at rates prevailing
during the quarter. Resulting translation adjustments are accumulated as part of
the other comprehensive income and aggregate $465,447 of unrealized gain at
July 3, 1999. Transaction gains or losses are recognized in income or loss
currently.

3.   NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
     ---------------------------

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per
share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and common
share equivalents outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method.
Common share equivalents have not been included in any periods that the effect
would be anti-dilutive.

4.   LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS
     ---------------------

In March 1998, the Company entered into a $5,000,000 term loan which requires
the Company to make quarterly principal payments of $250,000 plus interest at a
floating rate based upon LIBOR. This term loan is secured by the Company's
accounts receivable.

5.   STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
     --------------------

In February 1998, the Company completed a public offering of 2,000,000 shares of
common stock at a price of $19.00 per share. Of the total shares sold, 1,000,000
shares were sold by Kopin and the other 1,000,000 shares were sold by a
shareholder. Net proceeds to the Company totaled approximately $17,171,000.

6.   RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS
     ---------------------

The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities", which is effective for fiscal years
commencing after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133 requires fair value accounting for
all stand-alone derivatives and many derivatives embedded in other financial
instruments and contracts. The impact of SFAS No. 133 on the Company has not yet
been determined.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        -----------------------------------------------------------------------
        OPERATIONS
        ----------

Kopin is a leading developer and manufacturer of advanced semiconductor
materials and small form factor displays.  The Company was incorporated in 1984
to further develop and commercialize certain semiconductor expertise developed
at MIT. The Company's primary revenue source since 1995 has been from the sales
of its gallium arsenide products. The Company has been unprofitable annually
since inception and, at July 3, 1999, the Company had an accumulated deficit of
$57,134,409.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

  REVENUES.   The Company's total revenues increased $1,930,464 for the
three months and $3,193,513 for the six months ended July 3, 1999 to $8,614,401
and $15,343,997 for the three and six months ended July 3, 1999 compared to
$6,683,937 and $12,150,484 during the corresponding periods in 1998. This
represented 28.9% and 26.3% increases in revenue for the three and six months
ended July 3, 1999, respectively. The Company's product revenues were $7,926,132
and $13,911,064 for the three and six months ended July 3, 1999 compared to
$5,666,895 and $10,327,579 for the three and six months ended June 27, 1998,
increases of $2,259,237 or 39.9% and $3,583,485 or 34.7%, respectively.
The increase in sales of the Company's gallium arsenide products principally
resulted from an increase in sales of device transistors. Research and
development revenues decreased 32.3% to $688,269 for the three months ended
July 3, 1999 compared to $1,017,042 during the corresponding period in 1998 and
decreased 21.4% to $1,432,933 for the six months ended July 3, 1999 compared to
$1,822,905 for the same period in the prior year. As a result of the expirations
of multi-year contracts with the federal government and the Company's increased
emphasis on product revenues, the Company believes that research and development
revenues will decline as a percentage of total revenues for the near future.

  COST OF PRODUCT REVENUES.   Cost of product revenues, which is comprised of
materials, labor and manufacturing overhead related to the Company's products,
was $5,891,308 for the three months ended July 3, 1999 compared to $3,511,627
for the same period in the prior year. Cost of product revenues was $9,821,482
for the six months ended July 3, 1999 compared to $6,234,865 for the same period
in the prior year. The increase in cost of product revenues as a percentage of
product revenues in 1999 is attributable to increased production staffing as
the Company increases production capacity, the re-deployment of certain assets
and personnel previously involved in development activities to manufacturing
activities, and an increase in Cyberdisplay sales as a percentage of total
sales. Cyberdisplay products have a lower gross margin as compared to gallium
arsenide products. (See "Liquidity and Capital Resources.")

  RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT.   Research and development expenses (R&D) are
incurred under development programs for display devices and products and gallium
arsenide products either in support of internal development programs or programs
funded by agencies of the federal government. R&D costs include staffing,
purchases of materials and laboratory supplies, and overhead. Funded research
and development expenses were $849,006 and $1,748,765 for the three and six
months ended July 3, 1999 compared to $1,260,016 and $2,316,150 for the same
periods in the prior year, decreases of $411,010 and $567,385, respectively,
associated with reduced subcontractor expenses caused by the expiration of
multi-year contracts with agencies of the federal government. Internal research
and development expenses were $498,664 and $1,598,049 for the three and six
months ended July 3, 1999 compared to $1,249,200 and $2,743,071 during the
corresponding periods in 1998. The decrease in internal R&D was primarily a
result of the re-deployment of certain assets and personnel from development
activities into manufacturing activities.

  SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE.   Selling, general, and administrative
expenses (S,G&A) consist of the expenses incurred by the Company's sales and
marketing personnel and related expenses, and administrative and general
corporate expenses. S,G&A was $1,421,067 for the three months ended July 3, 1999
compared to $1,134,432 during the corresponding period in 1998, an increase of
$286,635. S,G&A was $2,343,997 for the six months ended July 3, 1999 compared to
$2,126,127 during the corresponding period in 1998, an increase of $217,870.
The increase in S,G&A is primarily due to increases in headcount in the sales
and marketing staff and significant travel associated with supporting new
customer activities.

  OTHER.   Other expenses were $91,375 and $179,275 for the three and six months
ended July 3, 1999 compared to $95,731  and $187,630 during the corresponding
periods in 1998.

                                       8
<PAGE>

  OTHER INCOME, NET.   Other income, net was $309,224 and $725,476 for the three
and six months ended July 3, 1999 compared to $392,160 and $671,425 during the
corresponding periods in 1998. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in
interest and other income to $407,120 for the three months ended July 3, 1999
compared to $548,349 for the corresponding period in 1998. Interest and other
income was $941,636 for the six months ended July 3, 1999 compared to $927,584
from corresponding period in 1998. The decrease in interest income earned during
the three months ended July 3, 1999 was due to lower cash balances available for
investing as the Company funds the expansion of its gallium arsenide and display
products manufacturing capacity. Interest expense decreased $58,293 and $39,999
for the three and six months ended July 3, 1999 from the corresponding periods
in 1998 due to the expiration of certain debt obligations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company has financed its operations primarily through public and
private placements of its equity securities, research and development contract
revenues, and sales of its gallium arsenide and display products. The Company
believes its available cash resources will support its operations and capital
needs for at least the next twelve months.

     As of July 3, 1999, the Company had cash and equivalents and marketable
securities of $27,938,263 and working capital of $35,721,341 compared to
$36,808,218 and $39,358,733, respectively, as of December 31, 1998. The decrease
in cash and equivalents and marketable securities was primarily due to cash used
in operations of $2,855,442, capital expenditures of $5,922,168, and principal
payments on long-term obligations of $1,175,337, offset by proceeds from the
exercise of stock options of $1,170,807. The increase in capital expenditures is
primarily for the Company's expansion program to increase manufacturing capacity
for the Company's gallium arsenide and display products.

     The Company periodically enters into various long-term debt arrangements to
finance equipment purchases and other activities. As of July 3, 1999, long-term
debt obligations totaled $5,033,631, of which $1,792,631 is payable in the next
twelve months.

     The markets the CyberDisplay product is targeted at are large sales volume
consumer electronic and wireless communication applications. The Company
believes that in order to obtain customers in these markets, it has been
necessary to make significant investments in equipment and infrastructure. In
addition, the Company has spent approximately $5,000,000 and $7,000,000 annually
in 1998 and 1997, respectively, to develop and improve CyberDisplay products.
The Company believes that it will be necessary to continue to make significant
investments in equipment and development in order to produce the current
CyberDisplay product and later display products. As a result of the current cost
structure of the CyberDisplay product line, the ability of the CyberDisplay
product line to achieve profitability is dependent upon achieving significant
sales volumes and reasonable gross profit margins. The Company has not yet
produced the CyberDisplay product at volumes necessary to achieve profitability.
Accordingly, there can be no assurances that the Company will obtain sufficient
sales volumes, or if sufficient sales volumes are achieved, produce the
CyberDisplay at a gross margin which will allow the product line to generate a
profit.

     The Company leases a 74,000 square foot manufacturing facility. This
facility, which includes 10,000 square feet of environmentally controlled clean
rooms, is used primarily for the Company's production of display products. This
facility is occupied under a lease that expires in October 2000, with renewable
options for up to four additional years at the Company's election. The Company
will make lease payments of approximately $1.0 million per year over the
remaining term of the lease.

     The Company expects to expend approximately $10,000,000 on capital
expenditures over the next twelve months, primarily for the acquisition of
equipment relating to the production of the Company's gallium arsenide products
and the manufacturing, packaging and testing of CyberDisplay products.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities", which is effective for fiscal years
commencing after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133 requires fair value accounting for
all stand-alone derivatives and many derivatives embedded in other financial
instruments and contracts. The impact of SFAS No. 133 on the Company has not yet
been determined.

                                       9
<PAGE>

Year 2000

     The Company has developed plans to address issues related to the impact on
its systems from the "Year 2000 Problem".  Financial and operational systems are
being assessed and plans have been implemented to address systems modification
requirements.

     The Company, utilizing both internal and external resources to address the
Year 2000 issue, expects to be substantially complete with this project by the
third quarter of calendar 1999.  The current estimate of total project cost is
approximately $700,000, which includes the cost of purchasing certain equipment
and software which will be capitalized in accordance with normal policy.
The cost of equipment and software account for approximately 30 percent of the
total estimated project cost while internal resources, primarily salary costs,
are 30 percent of the cost and external resources are the remaining 40 percent.
Approximately 75 percent of the total project cost has been spent through
July 3, 1999, with remaining amount to be spent in 1999. The plan costs will be
paid from cashflow generated from operations. The Year 2000 project will not
result in the delay in implementation of any previously planned information
technology projects.

   The Company's products, which are Year 2000 compliant, require high quality
raw materials in order to achieve historical manufacturing yields  and
performance. The Company requires suppliers to meet stringent quality standards
before the Company will accept their product. The Company is continually
performing  an assessment of  its key suppliers' Year 2000 readiness and their
plans for becoming Year 2000 compliant. Although the Company has multiple
suppliers for each raw material, failure by one or more key suppliers to achieve
Year 2000 readiness could impact the Company's ability to produce product at
historical levels. In addition, certain critical raw material suppliers allocate
capacity to the Company. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that if one or
more suppliers are unable to meet their commitments to the Company, the
remaining suppliers will be able to make-up the shortfall. Development of
contingency plans is in progress and will be developed in detail in 1999.
There can be, however, no assurance that the Company will adequately address the
Year 2000 problem, that any contingency plans implemented by the Company would
be adequate to meet the Company's needs without materially impacting its
operations, that any such plan would be successful or that the Company's results
of operations and financial condition would not be materially and adversely
affected by the delays and inefficiencies in conducting operations in an
alternative manner.

FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS

     Certain of the statements contained in this Form 10-Q, including
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations, are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
In addition to the risks and uncertainties set forth in this Form 10-Q, other
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include the
following: general economic and business conditions and growth in the flat panel
display industry, growth in the gallium arsenide integrated circuit and
materials industries, growth in the wireless handset market, impact of
competitive products and pricing, availability of third party components,
availability of integrated circuit fabrication facilities, cost and yields
associated with production of the Company's CyberDisplay imaging devices and
device transistors, loss of significant customers, acceptance of the Company's
products, continuation of strategic relationships, Year 2000 matters, changes in
foreign currency exchange rates, and the risk factors and cautionary statements
listed from time to time in the Company's periodic reports and registration
statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not
limited to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1998.

Item 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
          ----------------------------------------------------------

     The Company invests its excess cash in high quality government and
corporate financial instruments which bear minimal risk. The Company believes
that the effect, if any, of reasonably possible near-term changes in interest
rates on the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows
should not be material. The Company sells its products to customers worldwide.
The Company maintains a reserve for potential credit losses and such losses have
been minimal. The Company is exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange
primarily through its translation of its foreign subsidiary's financial
position, results of operations, and cash flows and the sale of CyberDisplay
products to Asian customers.
