BigBear.ai Announces Fourth Quarter 2025 Results; Releases 2026 Financial Outlook

Key Terms

convertible notes financial

Convertible notes are a type of short-term loan that a company receives from investors, which can later be turned into company shares instead of being paid back in cash. They matter to investors because they offer a way to support a company early on while giving the potential to own a stake in its success if the company grows and later raises more funding.

derivative liabilities financial

Derivative liabilities are obligations a company records when it owes money under financial contracts whose value depends on something else, like interest rates, stock prices, or currencies. Think of them as bets or insurance policies that can create future cash payments; they matter to investors because they can cause sudden changes in a company’s reported debt, profits and cash flow and reveal exposure to market risks that could affect valuation.

non-gaap financial

Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.

ebitda financial

EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.

adjusted ebitda financial

Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

restricted stock units financial

Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.

at-the-market offering financial

An at-the-market offering is a method companies use to sell new shares of stock directly into the open market over time, rather than all at once. This allows them to raise money gradually, similar to selling small pieces of a product instead of a large batch. For investors, it means the company can access funding more flexibly, but it may also increase the supply of shares and influence the stock’s price.

rule 144 regulatory

Rule 144 is a U.S. securities regulation that sets conditions under which restricted or insider-held shares can be legally resold to the public, such as required holding periods, availability of public information, limits on how much can be sold at once, and certain filing requirements. For investors it matters because it determines when previously locked-up shares can enter the market — like a release valve that can increase supply, affect share price, and signal insider intent.

• Closed 2025 with strongest financial position in Company history
• Total cash and investments of $462 million as of December 31, 2025
• Settled the remaining $125 million of 2029 Convertible notes, primarily through the Company’s exercise of debt-to-equity conversion features in January 2026.
• Closed acquisitions of Ask Sage (December 2025), and CargoSeer (January 2026), and expanded into the Middle East, which positions the Company for solid growth in 2026
• The Company projects full-year 2026 revenue between $135 million and $165 million, representing approximately 17% growth at the midpoint compared to full-year 2025 revenue of $128 million

MCLEAN, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- BigBear.ai Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: BBAI) (“BigBear.ai” or the “Company”), a leader in AI-powered decision intelligence solutions, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter of 2025 and issued an investor presentation that has been posted to the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website.

“At the start of 2025, we set out to transform our financial foundations to establish a base from which to accelerate in 2026. We have delivered exactly that. As of year-end 2025, BigBear.ai is in the strongest financial position in the company’s history. I am tremendously grateful to our team for the work they have done. We have reduced our debt by more than 90%, established a powerful cash position that gives us the freedom to invest in catalytic technologies, expanded internationally, and acquired two highly specialized technology companies which play directly into our two core markets in national security and travel & trade,” said Kevin McAleenan, CEO of BigBear.ai.

“The U.S. Government’s AI Acceleration Strategy plays directly to our strengths. Unlike many AI and technology companies, we deeply understand the reality operators face. Our national security customers and global partners need the ability to apply emerging tech securely, more rapidly and with greater flexibility than ever before to address emerging threats and challenges. And that's what we intend to keep doing for them.”

“There were many significant milestones in 2025: we raised $693 million of proceeds from our ATM facilities and warrants; and closed the purchase of Ask Sage, the largest acquisition in BigBear’s history. Further, we have already started 2026 by settling our 2029 Notes, which amounted to $182 million in the beginning of 2025, and also closing on the acquisition of CargoSeer,” said Sean Ricker, CFO of BigBear.ai.

Financial Highlights

• Revenue decreased 38% to $27.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $43.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 primarily due to lower volume on Army programs.
• Gross margin was 20.3% in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to 37.4% in the fourth quarter of 2024, due to significant one-time high margin contracts in the fourth quarter of 2024, which did not recur in the fourth quarter of 2025.
• Net loss in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $5.8 million, compared to a net loss of $138.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. The decrease in net loss was primarily driven by non-cash gain of $50.2 million related to derivative liabilities associated with changes in the fair value of the convertible features of the 2029 and 2026 Notes and warrants for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to a non-cash loss of $93.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. Further there was a non-cash loss on extinguishment of debt in fourth quarter of 2024 of $31.3 million. Additionally, the Company realized an income tax benefit of $21.7 million related to a change in tax valuation allowances resulting from the Ask Sage acquisition. This was partially offset by impairment of long-lived assets of $53.4 million during the fourth quarter of 2025.
• Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA* of $(10.3) million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $2.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily driven by a decrease in gross margin as well as an increase in research and development, and SG&A expenses.

The above information on financial outlook, and other sections of this release contain forward-looking statements, which are based on the Company’s current expectations. Actual results may differ materially from those projected. It is the Company’s practice not to incorporate adjustments into its financial outlook for proposed acquisitions, divestitures, changes in law, or new accounting standards until such items have been consummated, enacted, or adopted, as the case may be. For additional factors that may impact the Company’s actual results, refer to the “Forward-Looking Statements” section in this release.

*EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP financial measures. See the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section in this press release for additional information and reconciliations.

(1)	Includes employer payroll taxes due upon the vesting of equity awards granted to employees.
(2)	The change in fair value of derivatives during the year ended December 31, 2025 relates to the remeasurement of the 2025 warrants, IPO warrants and the 2026 and 2029 Notes Conversion Options derivative liabilities. The change during the year ended December 31, 2025, relates to the $14.0 million loss recorded upon the exercise of the 2024 RDO and 2024 PIPE Warrants (the “2024 Warrants”) and issuance of the warrants in 2025 (the “2025 Warrants”) in connection with the warrant exercise agreements entered into on February 5, 2025. During the year ended December 31, 2025, there was loss related to a mark-to-market adjustment of $59.9M for the debt to equity conversions during the period. There was a gain related to the fair market value adjustment on the 2025 warrants and the private warrants of $2.3 million. Additionally, there was a loss of $20.8 million fair market value adjustments of the 2026 and 2029 Notes Conversion Option, during the year ended December 31, 2025.
	The increase in fair value of derivatives during the year ended December 31, 2024, relates to the $42.3 million loss recorded upon the exercise of the 2023 RDO and 2023 PIPE Warrants (the “2023 Warrants”) and issuance of the warrants in 2024 (the “2024 Warrants”) in connection with the warrant exercise agreements entered into on February 27, 2024 and March 4, 2024. The additional loss relates to $11.4 million fair market value adjustment of the 2026 Notes Conversion Option, 2024 Warrants, and IPO Private Warrants during the year ended December 31, 2024. This loss is net of a $10.6 million gain related to the issuance of the 2024 Warrants and was further offset by a reduction of $11.4 million upon remeasurement of the 2024 Warrants and IPO Private Warrants’ fair value during the year ended December 31, 2024. Additionally, for the year-ended December 31, 2024, there was a $54.4 million loss related to the fair market valuation of the derivative liabilities in connection with the 2029 Convertible Notes.
(3)	Employee separation costs associated with strategic reviews of the Company’s capacity and future projections to better align the organization and cost structure and improve the affordability of its products and services.
(4)	Non-recurring professional fees incurred in connection with discrete, non-recurring strategic initiatives, including business transformation and strategy realignment consulting services which management does not consider part of the Company’s ongoing operating expenses.
(5)	Non-recurring litigation consists primarily of legal settlements and related fees for specific proceedings that we have determined arise outside of the ordinary course of business based on the following considerations which we assess regularly: (1) the frequency of similar cases that have been brought to date, or are expected to be brought within two years; (2) the complexity of the case; (3) the nature of the remedy(ies) sought, including the size of any monetary damages sought; (4) offensive versus defensive posture of us; (5) the counterparty involved; and (6) our overall litigation strategy.
(6)	Transaction expenses during the year ended December 31, 2024 consist primarily of diligence, legal and other related expenses incurred associated with the Pangiam acquisition. Transaction expenses during the year ended December 31, 2025 consist primarily of diligence, legal and other related expenses incurred associated with the Ask Sage acquisition, as well as expenses incurred to explore other acquisition options.
(7)	Non-recurring internal integration costs related to the Pangiam and Ask Sage acquisitions, respectively.
(8)	During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge primarily driven by a decrease in share price during the quarter compared to the share price of the equity issued as consideration for the purchase of Pangiam. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the company recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge primarily driven by a change in forecast during the second quarter of 2025.
(9)	During December 2025, the Company recognized a non-cash impairment of its intangible assets, primarily driven by certain revenue contracts with the U.S. government that resulted in downward revisions of short and long-term forecasts.
(10)	Loss on extinguishment of debt is related to voluntary conversions of the 2029 Notes to common stock and the related extinguishment of unamortized debt discount and debt costs.

There may be additional risks that we presently do not know or that we currently believe are immaterial which could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect our expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this release. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our assessments to change. However, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The financial information and data contained in this press release is unaudited. Some of the financial information and data contained in this press release, such as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have not been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). To supplement our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP in our press release, we also report certain non-GAAP financial measures. A “non-GAAP financial measure” refers to a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that excludes (or includes) amounts that are included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in such company’s financial statements. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the relevant GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with information presented on a 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.

The presentation of these financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered measures of BigBear.ai’s liquidity. Investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool. In particular, many of the adjustments to our GAAP financial measures reflect the exclusion of certain items, as defined in our non-GAAP definitions below, which are recurring and will be reflected in our financial results for the foreseeable future. In addition, these measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, even where similarly titled, limiting their usefulness for comparison purposes and therefore should not be used to compare BigBear.ai’s performance to that of other companies. We endeavor to compensate for the limitation of the non-GAAP financial measures presented by also providing the most directly comparable GAAP measures and descriptions of the reconciling items and adjustments to derive the non-GAAP financial measures.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors and analysts with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business, enable comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key measures used by management to operate and analyze our business over different periods of time.

EBITDA is defined as net loss before interest expense, interest income, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted for equity-based compensation, employer payroll taxes related to equity-based compensation, net (decrease) increase in fair value of derivatives, restructuring charges, non-recurring strategic initiatives, non-recurring litigation, transaction expenses, non-recurring integration costs, goodwill impairment, impairment of long-lived assets, and loss on extinguishment of debt.

Similar excluded expenses may be incurred in future periods when calculating these measures. BigBear.ai believes these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. BigBear.ai believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating projected operating results and trends and in comparing BigBear.ai’s financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

Management does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expense and income items are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures.

Management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as non-GAAP performance measures which are reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, in the tables included in this release. The Company does not reconcile forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure (or otherwise describe such forward-looking GAAP measure) because it is not able to forecast the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP without unreasonable effort. Certain elements of the composition of the GAAP amounts are not predictable, making it impracticable for the Company to forecast. As a result, no guidance for the Company’s net (loss) income or reconciliation of the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA guidance is provided. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a potentially significant impact on its future net income (loss).

We present reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures in the tables included in this release.
