Organization, Consolidation, Presentation of Financial Statements and Error Corrections [Abstract] |
BASIS OF PRESENTATION | 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 (51%) subsidiary located in the United Kingdom, and eMDT America Inc. (eMDT), a majority owned (51%) 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 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012 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 29, 2012. 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. The sale of the facility does not meet the criteria for assets held for sale based on the anticipated time to sell the facility. 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 February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. ASU No. 2013-02 requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (U.S. GAAP) to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. ASU No. 2013-02 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted this ASU on December 30, 2012 with no impact on its financial statements. During the six months ended June 29, 2013, the change in the Company's accumulated other comprehensive income was the net of $(1.2) million cumulative translation adjustment, $(1.6) million unrealized holding losses on marketable securities and $(1.6) million related to the sale of its III-V product line and $0.4 million related to its acquisition of additional noncontrolling interest in Kowon.
