“The transformation of Redwire into a scalable, multi-domain growth platform made consistent progress in the third quarter. As anticipated, the acquisition of Edge Autonomy has immediately strengthened our positioning technically, operationally, and financially and we anticipate further revenue synergies as we scale. Operationally, in the third quarter, we have sharpened our internal execution by eliminating costs from the business and streamlining operations. These efforts resulted in an Adjusted Gross Margin¹ of 27.1%, driving a significant improvement to our bottom-line,” stated Peter Cannito, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Redwire. “We closed key strategic opportunities such as Roll-Out Solar Arrays for Axiom Space’s future commercial space station and Stalker UAS sales for the U.S. Army and an undisclosed European NATO ally, ending the third quarter with a Book-to-Bill² ratio of 1.25. As we look forward, we continue to see positive demand signals from both the U.S. and Europe for our products and solutions, such as our combat-proven Stalker and Penguin unmanned systems, differentiated VLEO SabreSat and Phantom spacecraft, and large space systems such as ROSAs and International Berthing and Docking Mechanisms (IBDMs). In the near term, the U.S. government shutdown is likely to delay the timing of key awards into 2026, but the pipeline of new opportunities is very strong.”

Third Quarter 2025 Highlights

• Revenues for the third quarter of 2025 increased 50.7% to $103.4 million, as compared to $68.6 million for the third quarter of 2024.
• Net Loss for the third quarter of 2025 increased by $20.2 million to $(41.2) million, as compared to $(21.0) million for the third quarter of 2024.
• Adjusted EBITDA³ for the third quarter of 2025 decreased by $5.0 million to $(2.6) million, as compared to $2.4 million for the third quarter of 2024.
• During the third quarter of 2025, the Company had net unfavorable EAC changes of $8.3 million, which impacted third quarter of 2025 revenues, gross profit, and net loss, and as a result, Adjusted EBITDA.³
• On a quarterly basis, Book-to-Bill⁴ ratio was 1.25 as of the third quarter of 2025, as compared to 0.65 as of the third quarter of 2024.
• Net cash used in operating activities for the third quarter of 2025 increased by $2.7 million to $(20.3) million, as compared to $(17.7) million for the third quarter of 2024.
• Free Cash Flow³ for the third quarter of 2025 was $(27.8) million, as compared to $(20.5) million for the third quarter of 2024.
• Ended the third quarter of 2025 with total liquidity⁵ of $89.3 million, as compared to $61.1 million for the third quarter of 2024.

2025 Forecast

• Due to the ongoing U.S. government shutdown, a number of our anticipated orders have been pushed out of the quarter and into 2026. As a result, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, Redwire, including Edge Autonomy from the date of close (June 13, 2025), is forecasting full year revenues of $320 million to $340 million.

“During our first full quarter as a combined company, Redwire remained focused on our path to profitability, realizing record revenue of $103.4 million in the third quarter of 2025, with sequential and year-over-year improvement in Adjusted Gross Margin³,” said Jonathan Baliff, Chief Financial Officer of Redwire.

“The addition of Edge Autonomy has already been accretive to our financial profile,” added Chris Edmunds, Chief Accounting Officer of Redwire. “Looking towards the next twelve months, we expect that trend to continue, with revenue growth driven by an improved Book-to-Bill⁴ ratio, diversification in contract mix, gross margin expansion as evidenced by the 27.1% Adjusted Gross Margin³ achieved this quarter, and increased operating leverage as the Company sharpens its execution and capitalizes on the significant pipeline of opportunities. We have started to realize improvement in our Free Cash Flow during the third quarter, and the combination of these factors should lead to continued improvement as we move forward.”

Use of Projections

The financial outlook and projections, estimates and targets in this press release are forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainty and contingencies, many of which are beyond Redwire’s control. Such calculation cannot be predicted with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort because of the timing, magnitude and variables associated with the recently completed merger with Edge Autonomy. Additionally, any such calculation, at this time, would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors. Redwire’s independent auditors have not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the financial projections for purposes of inclusion in this press release, and, accordingly, they did not express an opinion or provide any other form of assurance with respect thereto for the purposes of this press release. While all financial projections, estimates and targets are necessarily speculative, Redwire believes that the preparation of prospective financial information involves increasingly higher levels of uncertainty the further out the projection, estimate or target extends from the date of preparation. The assumptions and estimates underlying the projected, expected or target results for the combined company are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the financial projections, estimates and targets. The inclusion of financial projections, estimates and targets in this press release should not be regarded as an indication that Redwire, or its representatives, considered or consider the financial projections, estimates or targets to be a reliable prediction of future events. Further, inclusion of the prospective financial information in this press release should not be regarded as a representation by any person that the results contained in the prospective financial information will be achieved.

The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of the date of this press release, and Redwire disclaims any intention or obligation, other than imposed by law, to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release contains financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”). These financial measures include Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin and Free Cash Flow.

Non-GAAP financial measures are used to supplement the financial information presented on a U.S. GAAP basis and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the relevant U.S. GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with information presented on a U.S. GAAP basis. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. We encourage investors and stockholders to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense, net, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, impairment expense, transaction expenses, acquisition integration costs, acquisition earnout costs, purchase accounting fair value adjustments related to deferred revenue and inventory, severance costs, capital market and advisory fees, litigation-related expenses, write-off of long-lived assets, equity-based compensation, committed equity facility transaction costs, debt financing costs, gains on sale of joint ventures, net of costs incurred, and warrant liability change in fair value adjustments.

Adjusted Gross Profit is defined as revenues less cost of sales as computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding adjustments resulting from the application of purchase accounting included in cost of sales and Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of revenue. Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide investors meaningful insight into results from ongoing operations as the calculation of these measures excludes the impact of certain non-recurring charges. Management believes that by using Adjusted Gross Margin in conjunction with GAAP Gross Margin, investors will get a more complete view of what management considers to be the Company’s core operating performance and allow for comparison of this measure when compared to those of prior periods.

Free Cash Flow is computed as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures.

We use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans, and make strategic decisions, including those relating to operating expenses and the allocation of internal resources. We use Free Cash Flow as an indicator of liquidity to evaluate our period-over-period operating cash generation that will be used to service our debt, and can be used to invest in future growth through new business development activities and/or acquisitions, among other uses. Free Cash Flow does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance, and it should not be inferred that the entire amount of Free Cash Flow is available for discretionary expenditures, since we have mandatory debt service requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures that are not deducted from this measure.

Key Performance Indicators

Management uses Key Performance Indicators (“KPIs”) to assess the financial performance of the Company, monitor relevant trends and support financial, operational and strategic decision-making. Management frequently monitors and evaluates KPIs against internal targets, core business objectives as well as industry peers and may, on occasion, change the mix or calculation of KPIs to better align with the business, its operating environment, standard industry metrics or other considerations. If the Company changes the method by which it calculates or presents a KPI, prior period disclosures are recast to conform to current presentation.

Adjusted EBITDA

During the third quarter of 2024, we changed the Supplemental Non-GAAP Information to present only Adjusted EBITDA, whereas prior period disclosures also presented Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA. Management believes the presentation of Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA no longer provides the same meaningful insights into the Company’s performance as it did during the initial years of the Company’s formation. Prior period disclosures were recast to conform to current presentation. There was no change in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA.

The following table presents the reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

Book-to-Bill

Our book-to-bill ratio was as follows for the periods presented:

Book-to-bill is the ratio of total contracts awarded to revenues recorded in the same period. The contracts awarded balance includes firm contract orders, including time-and-material contracts, awarded during the period and does not include unexercised contract options or potential orders under indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contracts. Although the contracts awarded balance reflects firm contract orders, terminations, amendments, or contract cancellations may occur which could result in a reduction to the contracts awarded balance.

We view book-to-bill as an indicator of future revenue growth potential. To drive future revenue growth, our goal is for the level of contracts awarded in a given period to exceed the revenue recorded, thus yielding a book-to-bill ratio greater than 1.0.

Our book-to-bill ratio was 1.25 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to 0.65 for the three months ended September 30, 2024. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, none of the contracts awarded balance includes acquired contract value. For three months ended September 30, 2024, $21.9 million of the contracts awarded balance relates to acquired contract value from the Hera Systems acquisition.

Our book-to-bill ratio was 1.05 for the Last Twelve Months (“LTM”) ended September 30, 2025, as compared to 1.25 for the LTM ended September 30, 2024. For the LTM ended September 30, 2025, contracts awarded includes $73.7 million of acquired contract value from the Edge Autonomy acquisition, which was completed in the second quarter of 2025. For the LTM ended September 30, 2024, contracts awarded includes $21.9 million of acquired contract value from the Hera Systems acquisition, which was completed in the third quarter of 2024.

Backlog

The following table presents our contracted backlog as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and related activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024.

We view growth in backlog as a key measure of our business growth. Contracted backlog represents the estimated dollar value of firm funded executed contracts for which work has not been performed (also known as the remaining performance obligations on a contract). Our contracted backlog includes $92.4 million and $16.7 million in remaining contract value from contracts which recognize revenue at a point in time as of September 30, 2025 and as of December 31, 2024, respectively.

Organic backlog change excludes backlog activity from acquisitions for the first four full quarters since the entities’ acquisition date. Contracted backlog activity for the first four full quarters since the entities’ acquisition date is included in acquisition-related contracted backlog change. After the completion of four fiscal quarters, acquired entities are treated as organic for current and comparable historical periods.

Organic contract value includes the remaining contract value as of January 1 not yet recognized as revenue and additional orders awarded during the period for those entities treated as organic. Acquisition-related contract value includes remaining contract value as of the acquisition date not yet recognized as revenue and additional orders awarded during the period for entities not treated as organic. Organic revenue includes revenue earned during the period presented for those entities treated as organic, while acquisition-related revenue includes the same for all other entities, excluding any pre-acquisition revenue earned during the period. The acquisition-related backlog activity presented in the table above is related to the Edge Autonomy acquisition completed during the second quarter of 2025.

Although contracted backlog reflects business associated with contracts that are considered to be firm, terminations, amendments or contract cancellations may occur, which could result in a reduction in our total backlog. In addition, some of our multi-year contracts are subject to annual funding. Management expects all amounts reflected in contracted backlog to ultimately be fully funded. Contracted backlog from foreign operations was $128.7 million and $70.5 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. These amounts are subject to foreign exchange rate translations from euros to U.S. dollars that could cause the remaining backlog balance to fluctuate with the foreign exchange rate at the time of measurement.
