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. 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 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.

These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, conditions or results. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which involve factors or circumstances that are beyond our control.
These factors and circumstances include, but are not limited to (1) risks associated with economic uncertainty, including high inflation, market volatility, and the potential worsening of macro-economic conditions; (2) geopolitical and macroeconomic events; (3) tariffs impacting demand for our products; (4) the failure of financial institutions or transactional counterparties; (5) our evolving industry, limited operating history and history of losses makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and the risks and challenges we may encounter; (6) the inability to successfully integrate recently completed and future acquisitions, including the recent acquisition of Edge Autonomy, or successfully select, execute or integrate future acquisitions into the business and realize the anticipated benefits; (7) the development and continued refinement of many of Redwire’s proprietary technologies, products and service offerings; (8) competition with new or existing companies; (9) a limited number of customers make up a high percentage of our revenue; (10) potential litigation arising from time to time; (11) natural disasters, geopolitical conflicts, or other natural or man-made catastrophic events; (12) adverse publicity stemming from any incident or perceived risk involving Redwire or our competitors; (13) incurring significant risks and uncertainties not covered by insurance or indemnity; (14) failure to respond to industry cycles in terms of our cost structure, manufacturing capacity, and/or personnel needs; (15) customers unwillingness to adopt our core offerings; (16) delays in the development, design, engineering and manufacturing of our core offerings; (17) unsatisfactory performance of our core offerings; (18) impacts to our cash flows caused by our mix of fixed-price, cost-plus and time-and-material type contracts; (19) incurrence of expenditures prior to final receipt of a contract; (20) failure of new offerings and technologies to materialize; (21) the inability to convert orders in backlog into revenue; (22) the inability to properly manage the use of artificial intelligence in our business; (23) reliance on third-party launch vehicles to launch our spacecraft and customer payloads; (24) risk of an accident on launch or during a journey into space; (25) Redwire’s inability to meet expected financial results; (26) cyber-attacks and other security threats and disruptions; (27) risks resulting from broader geographic operations; (28) impairment of goodwill; (29) inability to use net operating loss carryforwards and certain other tax attributes; (30) changes to the
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
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, disposal of long-lived assets, litigation-related expenses, equity-based compensation, committed equity facility transaction costs, debt financing costs and extinguishment losses, 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
Segment Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income (loss) before taxes, excluding, depreciation and amortization, impairment expense, transaction expenses, acquisition integration costs, acquisition earnout costs, purchase accounting fair value adjustment related to deferred revenue and inventory, severance costs, disposal of long-lived assets, equity-based compensation and gains on sale of joint ventures, net of costs incurred. Segment Adjusted EBITDA also excludes intra- and inter-segment sales and costs and corporate pushdown costs.
Free Cash Flow is computed as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures.
We use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin and Segment Adjusted EBITDA 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.

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 1.52 for the three months ended December 31, 2025, as compared to 0.51 for the three months ended December 31, 2024. For the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, none of the contracts awarded balance includes acquired contract value.
Our book-to-bill ratio was 1.32 for the Last Twelve Months (“LTM”) ended December 31, 2025, as compared to 0.76 for the LTM ended December 31, 2024. For the LTM ended December 31, 2025, contracts awarded includes

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
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
