HERNDON, VA., – August 13, 2026 – HawkEye 360, Inc. (NYSE: HAWK) ("HawkEye 360" or "the Company"), a global leader in signals intelligence data and analytics, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.
"Our second quarter results reflect HawkEye 360's continued growth as a premier defense technology company and the strength of demand for our RF signals intelligence solutions, as governments around the world increasingly prioritize space-enabled intelligence, surveillance and electronic warfare capabilities." said Chief Executive Officer John Serafini. "We delivered another quarter of strong revenue growth, including record international revenue, reflecting the acceleration of our business model and increasing adoption of our RF signals intelligence solutions among defense, intelligence and allied government customers worldwide, particularly in areas of geopolitical tension where high-quality signals intelligence is exceptionally valuable.”
Mr. Serafini continued, "We are seeing great momentum across the business heading into the back half of the year, with strong tailwinds from growing global demand for space-based RF intelligence. Our next phase of constellation growth with Clusters 15 and 16, and our first cluster of Block 3 Kestrel satellites, are expected to further expand our collection capacity and global coverage. Additionally, we are seeing the benefits of our integration with ISA’s algorithms which have enhanced our processing latency and military radar product solutions with greater automation. With this momentum, HawkEye 360 is well positioned to capitalize on the growing importance of RF intelligence and electronic warfare capabilities in today's evolving global security environment. We continue to invest meaningfully in our best-in-class signals intelligence platform, exceptional team, and differentiated go-to-market capabilities to drive profitability and shareholder value."

Full Year 2026 Outlook
For full-year 2026, the Company expects total revenue of between $215.0 million and $220.0 million, and non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA of between $30.0 million and $36.0 million.
The Company has not reconciled its non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA outlook to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because certain reconciling items, such as stock-based compensation, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, and depreciation and amortization, are uncertain or out of the Company’s control and cannot be reasonably predicted. The actual amount of these expenses will have a significant impact on the Company’s future GAAP financial results. Accordingly, a reconciliation of the Company’s non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA outlook to the most comparable GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable efforts.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company reports Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest income, interest expense, income tax expense or benefit, depreciation and amortization, as well as significant non-cash
and/or non-recurring expenses that are not considered part of the Company's operations and revenue-generating activities, or are nonrecurring or infrequent in nature. Management believes these items are not useful in evaluating the Company’s core operating performance. These items include, but are not limited to, stock-based compensation expense; acquisition-related costs, one-time costs related to the IPO, settlements, net of related legal expenses, changes in fair value of contingent and deferred consideration, changes in fair value of warrant liabilities, and gains or losses on extinguishment of debt. The Company defines Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of satellites, property, and equipment.
The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow in conjunction with other GAAP measures to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies, make strategic decisions, and communicate with its board of directors and investors concerning its financial performance. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures to assess its financial performance because they allow the Company to compare its operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of its capital structure (such as varying levels of interest expense and income), asset base (such as depreciation and capital expenditures) and other items (such as non-recurring or non-cash costs) that impact the comparability of financial results from period to period.
The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures will provide useful information to investors and analysts in assessing its financial performance and results of operations across reporting periods by excluding items it does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance. Net Income (Loss) is the U.S. GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA. Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities is the U.S. GAAP measure most directly comparable to Free Cash Flow. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures are presented below under the headings "Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA" and "Reconciliation of Net Cash Provided By (Used In) Operating Activities to Free Cash Flow.” The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure. You are encouraged to evaluate each of these adjustments and the reasons management considers them appropriate for supplemental analysis.
In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in such presentation. The Company’s presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. The Company may modify the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow in the future, and any such modification may be material. Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow have important limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s operating results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow may be defined differently by other companies in the Company’s industry and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.
Other Key Metric
Backlog is a key measure of the Company’s business. The Company’s backlog supports predictable revenue expansion through a recurring model, enabling forward revenue visibility. Management uses backlog to more effectively forecast the Company's future business and results, which supports decisions around capital allocation. It also helps the Company identify future growth or operating trends that may not otherwise be apparent. The Company also believes backlog is useful for investors in forecasting the Company's future results and understanding the growth of its business.
The Company’s backlog represents the portion of legally binding contracts that are expected to result in future revenue. Backlog may also include change orders for any contracts that have been formally contracted. This includes firm contracts that contain remaining performance obligations, including the cancellable portion of the contract value for contracts that provide the customer with a right to terminate for convenience without incurring a substantive termination penalty. Backlog also can include up to the remaining ceiling on single award IDIQ contracts where no task orders have been issued. Backlog excludes the value of unexercised options to extend contracts, the value of multi-award IDIQ contracts, and the value of any contracts, or a portion
thereof, where management deems execution to be unlikely to result in revenue due to customer-specific or other factors.
