About RESEARCH FRONTIERS INC

https://www.smartglass.com/

Marketed as SPD-SmartGlass, this technology enables glass and plastic surfaces to instantly and precisely switch from clear to a user-controlled level of tint. The system operates via a film containing microscopic particles that align when an electrical voltage is applied, regulating the passage of light. Key features include rapid transition speed, variable tint control, and the ability to block over 99% of UV radiation and significant heat, enhancing energy efficiency. The company licenses its technology to a global network of partners for use in products across the automotive, aviation, marine, rail, and architectural industries.

Earnings Release 2017
Earnings Release Classification · 95% confidence The document is a Form 8-K filed with the SEC, dated March 13, 2017, reporting the issuance of a press release announcing financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2016. It mentions a conference call to discuss financial and operating results. The document itself does not contain detailed financial statements or substantive financial data but refers to a press release and a conference call. The length is 4561 characters, which is relatively short and consistent with a current report announcing an earnings release. The content aligns with an initial announcement of quarterly/periodical financial results, which fits the definition of an Earnings Release (ER). Therefore, the appropriate classification is ER with high confidence.

Regulatory Filings 2017
Regulatory Filings Classification · 95% confidence The document is a Form 8-K filed with the SEC, which is a current report used to announce major events or disclosures by a company. The text includes a Regulation FD Disclosure about the use of SPD-SmartGlass technology in the automotive industry, referencing a press release attached as Exhibit 99.1. There are no financial statements or detailed financial data presented, nor is this an annual or quarterly report. The document is primarily an announcement of a corporate event or disclosure rather than a financial report or management discussion. Therefore, it fits best under Regulatory Filings (RNS), which is the fallback category for miscellaneous SEC filings that do not fit other specific categories.
