From the Q4 conference call Q & A:

There is interesting exchange involving Kopin’s large customers for year 2014. Search on expression “tier-one” to make quickly a jump to relevant questions.

Including above or near 10% and tier-one, I get four:

Two tier-one customers are expected to introduce products this year.
Those products are in the wearable category.
Both tier-ones are for enterprise.
By tier-ones we mean “tier-one global corporations” {Snyder}.

From discussion of customers ranked by sales:

1st (> 10%) is military (Raytheon)
2nd is “all R&D”.
2nd and 3rd (> 10% and almost 10%) are for wearable.

From the last question from Robison of Wunderlich, trying to decipher all of the gibberish and obfuscation:

2nd and 3rd are different than the two tier-ones {Robison follow-up question}

However, Robison neglected to ask if that meant both are different or they are different taken as a pair…

Matt Robison
– Wunderlich Securities:

And are your two tier-ones – are they different than your second and third largest customers for 2014?

John Fan – Chairman, President and CEO:

Yes.

I deduce that with the two tier-ones being in the “growing wearable space” we are not referring to Raytheon. So we have the top three by sales plus at least another tier-one, i.e. four or more significant customers.
