Satellogic Reports Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Nine-month revenue reached $38.1 million, while GAAP net loss widened to $110.0 million, primarily reflecting a non-cash fair value charge.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Rhea-AI Summary
Satellogic (NASDAQ: SATL) reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $16.0 million, up 342% year over year, alongside a narrower operating loss. Operating loss fell to $2.3 million from $8.1 million, while adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP earnings measure, reached positive $1.2 million versus a $4.9 million loss. GAAP net income of $28.3 million included a $30.0 million non-cash financial-instrument gain.
Cash totaled $106.5 million at September 30; quarterly operating cash use was $10.4 million. Remaining performance obligations declined to $66.9 million from $80.7 million in June, primarily after a satellite delivery. After quarter-end, Satellogic signed an approximately $37 million agreement to transfer three satellites, expected by mid-2027 subject to contractual and regulatory milestones. Merlin.01 launched October 1 and is operating; the company expects Merlin service and initial revenue in the second half of 2027.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

After Quarter-End New Space Systems Satellite Agreement to Sell Three In-Orbit Satellites for Approximately
Commercial Customer Conversion Accelerates with Four In-Orbit Satellite Agreements Covering Seven Satellites Over the Last Twelve Months
Management to Host Webcast and Conference Call November 10, 2026 at 4:30 p.m. ET
NEW YORK, Nov. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Satellogic Inc. (NASDAQ: SATL), the infrastructure company for Persistent Global Intelligence (PGI), today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.
“We delivered an excellent third quarter, with record revenue and our second consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA,” said Satellogic Founder and CEO Emiliano Kargieman. “Revenue grew
“We completed the second satellite delivery under our
“In October, we also launched two NewSat Mark VI satellites and an additional NewSat Mark V for our sovereign Space Systems program. Our Space Systems program gives allied governments a pathway from commercial access to dedicated, sovereign-controlled capability. The program builds on a body of proof points that includes Portugal’s purchase of a sovereign satellite, our execution of the first commercial in-orbit transfer of a satellite, Tata’s operation of dedicated capacity for India, and HEO’s first-of-its-kind sovereign capability for Australia. The Mark V launch is a direct response to the growing demand we are seeing from governments that want to own their intelligence capability.
“Our new Mark VI satellites are equipped with inter-satellite links, allowing them to communicate directly in orbit and operate as a coordinated system. The system is designed to allow a detection on one satellite to trigger tasking on another without every decision passing through the ground, shortening the time from detection to follow-up imagery. That capability underpins our Slingshot III work with IDT for the Office of Naval Research and will enable our Merlin constellation to cue our Mark VI satellites for high-resolution follow-up once the constellation enters service.
“The October 1 launch of Merlin.01, the first satellite in our Merlin constellation, marked another major milestone, achieved just 18 months after program kickoff, on schedule and on budget. Merlin.01 is now operating in orbit, with payload commissioning underway since mid-October. Merlin.01 supports our First Missions Program, through which we have begun initial engagement with customers on Merlin.01 imagery and change detections. We plan to launch additional Merlin satellites in the first half of 2027, with operational service and initial revenue from Merlin-based services expected to begin in the second half of 2027. Once fully operational, the constellation is designed to remap the planet daily, detect changes on board, and direct our high-resolution satellites to areas requiring closer observation. That is how we intend to expand persistent monitoring beyond the locations customers already know to changes occurring across the globe,” concluded Kargieman.
Dustin Greer, Satellogic Interim CFO, added, “Our financial results reflect strong revenue growth, which is translating into substantial year-over-year improvement in operating performance. Third quarter revenue increased
“We ended September with
Third Quarter 2026 and Subsequent Operational Highlights
- Generated record quarterly revenue of
$16.0 million , up342% year-over-year, including$6.6 million in Data & Analytics revenue and$9.5 million in Space Systems revenue. Operating loss narrowed72% to$2.3 million , and Adjusted EBITDA was positive$1.2 million , marking the second consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA. Cash and cash equivalents totaled$106.5 million at quarter-end. - Completed the in-orbit delivery of the second NewSat Mark V satellite under the previously announced
$18 million agreement with Portugal’s CEiiA, contributing to third quarter Space Systems revenue. Over the past 12 months, Satellogic has announced four in-orbit satellite agreements covering seven satellites, including the sale of NewSat-34 to HEO, a$12 million satellite transfer to a sovereign defense customer and the new sovereign agreement signed after quarter-end described below. - Continued expanding Data & Analytics, which generated
$6.6 million in third quarter revenue, more than double the prior-year period. Aleph Observer, launched in February 2026 with its first customer signed in April, supports recurring monitoring of hundreds of sites in a customer’s area of interest and will serve as a foundation for broader coverage as Merlin enters service. - Successfully launched Merlin.01 aboard SpaceX’s Transporter-18 mission on October 1, 2026, 18 months after program kickoff, alongside two NewSat Mark VI satellites equipped with inter-satellite links and one sovereign-program NewSat Mark V. All four spacecraft made contact and returned good subsystem health reports.
- Merlin.01 is operating, with solar arrays deployed and payload commissioning underway since mid-October, supporting the Company’s First Missions Program and initial customer engagement on early Merlin data. Additional Merlin launches are planned for the first half of 2027, with operational service and initial revenue from Merlin-based services expected to begin in the second half of 2027. When fully operational, the constellation is designed to remap the planet daily in one-meter-class imagery, detect change on board, deliver alerts within 30 minutes and cue NewSat Mark VI satellites for 50-centimeter follow-up imagery.
- Expanded work with Innovative Defense Technologies on the U.S. Office of Naval Research’s Slingshot III program. On-orbit activities and tests are planned for 2027 and 2028, with six NewSat Mark VI satellites to be integrated over the 18 months following the September announcement to support autonomous, low-latency maritime domain awareness.
- Signed a three-year Non-Earth Imaging agreement with HEO that runs through 2029 and includes a seven-figure minimum annual commitment in each of its three years. The agreement covers NewSat Mark IV, Mark V and Mark VI satellites, including the newest ISL-equipped spacecraft, and extends a six-year working relationship.
- Announced an agreement for SynMax’s Theia platform to serve as the channel for Merlin-derived maritime intelligence, including vessel tracking, dark-vessel identification, sanctions-evasion monitoring and illegal fishing analysis.
- Supported HEO’s rendezvous and proximity operations campaign, during which Satellogic-built Continuum-1 inspected a derelict rocket body from within 27 kilometers at resolution as sharp as seven centimeters per pixel, demonstrating space domain awareness capabilities without new hardware.
- Subsequent to quarter-end, signed an approximately
$37 million agreement covering the in-orbit transfer of a NewSat Mark V and two NewSat Mark VI satellites. The transfers are expected to be complete by mid-2027, subject to standard contractual and regulatory milestones. - Strengthened leadership with the appointments of Vice Admiral Frank D. “Trey” Whitworth, U.S. Navy (Ret.), former Director of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, as President; Jamil Kawar, who brings more than two decades of aerospace, defense and space experience, including senior international satellite sales roles at BlackSky and ICEYE, as Senior Vice President, Space Systems; and Dustin Greer as Interim CFO. The search for a permanent CFO continues.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use the following non-GAAP measures: EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, and Adjusted Net Cash Used in Operating Activities. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
We define Non-GAAP EBITDA as net income (loss) excluding interest income, net, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Interest income, net is interest income less interest expense. We did not incur amortization expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.
We define Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA as Non-GAAP EBITDA further adjusted for other (expense) income, net, changes in the fair value of financial instruments, and stock-based compensation. Other (expense) income, net consists primarily of foreign currency gains and losses.
We define Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow as net cash used in operating activities, less payments for capital expenditures, plus proceeds from the sale of in-orbit satellites.
We define Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Cash Used in Operating Activities as net cash used in operating activities plus proceeds from the sale of in-orbit satellites.
As of January 1, 2026, we updated our methodology to exclude interest income from EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. This change aligns our reporting with industry peers and better serves our goal of providing useful information regarding our operating performance by ensuring that non-operating income and losses are excluded from our Non-GAAP profitability measures. The prior period has been recast using the updated methodology.

FAQ
AI-generated questions and answers. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.
What were Satellogic's third-quarter 2026 earnings results?
Satellogic reported $16.0 million in revenue, up 342% year over year, and GAAP net income of $28.3 million. Net income included a $30.0 million non-cash gain from changes in financial-instrument values, which does not indicate underlying operating performance. Operating loss was $2.3 million, while adjusted EBITDA was positive $1.2 million.
What is Satellogic's new $37 million satellite agreement?
Satellogic signed an agreement after quarter-end for approximately $37 million covering the in-orbit transfer of one NewSat Mark V and two NewSat Mark VI satellites. Transfers are expected to be complete by mid-2027, subject to contractual and regulatory milestones. The agreement is excluded from September 30 remaining performance obligations.
When does Satellogic expect its contracted revenue to be recognized?
Of Satellogic's September 30, 2026 remaining performance obligations, $33.4 million is expected to become revenue within one year, $8.7 million in the following year, $8.2 million in year three and $16.6 million thereafter. The balance includes the HEO agreement and excludes $1.0 million of constrained variable consideration.
How did satellite sale proceeds affect Satellogic's third-quarter cash flow measures?
Satellogic classified $4.8 million of in-orbit satellite sale proceeds as investing cash flow under GAAP. Including those proceeds, its non-GAAP adjusted net cash used in operating activities was $5.5 million, versus $8.4 million a year earlier. GAAP operating cash use was $10.4 million, versus $8.4 million.
