WOODBURY, N.Y., Aug. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research Frontiers Inc. (Nasdaq: REFR) announced its financial results for its second quarter of 2026. Management will host a conference call today at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time to discuss its financial and operating results as well as recent developments.
“The second quarter continued to reflect the temporary impact of our principal SPD-Smart light control film supplier's reduced production, rather than any change in the underlying demand for SPD-Smart technology," said Joseph M. Harary, President and CEO of Research Frontiers. "Throughout this period our customers remained committed, we added a new licensee, continued advancing new applications including black SPD technology, and maintained our strong intellectual property portfolio. While near-term financial results in the second quarter were affected by reduced SPD film production, we believe the resource-related issues at Gauzy is nearing its conclusion and we remain confident in the long-term opportunities for SPD technology.”
Management expects during today’s conference call to discuss the status of developments at Gauzy including current SPD film production, and the Company's contingency plans to support future manufacturing capacity.
