Insights

The reported increase in revenue by 44% year-over-year to $135.9 million is a strong indicator of Terran Orbital's growth trajectory. This is particularly noteworthy given the capital-intensive nature of the aerospace and defense industry. The ability to secure over $2.7 billion in new awards, which translates into a significant backlog, provides visibility into future revenue streams. However, the net loss of $151.8 million, despite an improvement from the previous year, raises questions about the company's path to profitability. The cash balance of $71.7 million, juxtaposed with $313.8 million in gross debt obligations, indicates a substantial leverage position that investors should monitor closely. The capital expenditure increase to $23.1 million reflects ongoing investments in growth, yet it's essential to evaluate whether these expenditures are translating into sustainable profit margins.

The introduction of seven new standard bus designs and the launch of the Responsive Space Initiative suggest that Terran Orbital is actively innovating to meet market demands for quicker satellite deployment. The emphasis on responsiveness in space aligns with current industry trends towards faster and more flexible satellite services. The commissioning of new facilities and expansion efforts indicate a strategic move to scale operations and capacity. However, the estimated $6.1 million negative impact from EAC adjustments on firm fixed price programs could signal issues with cost estimation or project management that need to be addressed to maintain profitability and competitive pricing.

Manufacturing 78 satellites for Lockheed Martin for Space Development Agency programs places Terran Orbital at the center of significant defense and space initiatives, potentially increasing its strategic importance to national security interests. The long-term implications of such partnerships could lead to more stable revenue streams and an enhanced industry reputation. However, the defense sector is known for its rigorous contracting and potentially volatile funding, subject to political and budgetary constraints. The reliance on a few large contracts, such as the $2.4 billion related to Rivada Space Networks, may expose the company to risks if these contracts face delays or reductions. Diversification of the customer base and contract portfolio would be a prudent strategy to mitigate such risks.

BOCA RATON, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Terran Orbital Corporation (NYSE: LLAP) ("Terran Orbital" or the "Company"), a leading manufacturer of satellite products primarily serving the aerospace and defense industries, today announced financial results and operational highlights for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023.

  • Generated record revenue of $135.9 million up 44% year-over-year
  • Gross profit of $8.6 million compared to $17.3 million loss in 2022
  • Adjusted gross profit(1) of $19.4 million compared to $2.2 million loss in 2022

Results for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023

Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $31.6 million, compared to $31.9 million for the same quarter in 2022, and $135.9 million for the full year, up 44% over the prior year. The increase in annual revenue was primarily due to the continued and increased level of progress made in satisfying our customer contracts and reflects the ongoing favorable impact from significant contract wins and modifications in recent periods. Revenue for 2023 was negatively impacted by an estimated $6.1 million of EAC adjustments on certain firm fixed price programs. EAC represents the total estimated cost-at-completion and is comprised of direct material, direct labor and manufacturing overhead applicable to a performance obligation.

Cost of sales for the quarter was $32.1 million compared to $42.7 million in the same period in the prior year, and $127.4 million for the full year, compared to $111.5 million for the prior year. The increase in cost of sales for the full year was primarily due to an increase of $25.8 million in direct and indirect program costs and $2.5 million in depreciation and amortization, partially offset by a decrease of $6.8 million in share-based compensation expense, $3.9 million loss reserve, and $2.1 million in scrap and obsolete materials and services. Cost of sales for the full year included an estimated negative impact of $2.1 million due to EAC adjustments on certain programs and non-recurring changes in estimates related to inventory.

Gross (loss) profit was $(0.5) million for the quarter, compared to $(10.8) million in the same period in the prior year, and $8.6 million for the full year, compared to $(17.3) million for the prior year. Excluding share-based compensation and depreciation and amortization included in cost of sales, Adjusted Gross (Loss) Profit(1) was $2.2 million for the quarter, compared to $(7.3) million for the same period in the prior year, and $19.4 million for the full year, compared to $(2.2) million in the prior year. EAC adjustments negatively impacted gross profit and Adjusted Gross Profit by an estimated $4.0 million during 2023.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $27.2 million for the quarter, compared to $27.6 million for the same period in the prior year, and $117.5 million for the full year, compared to $111.9 million for prior year. The increase for the full year was primarily driven by increases in salaries and wages, research and development expenses, business development expenses, depreciation and amortization, and other operating costs, partially offset by a decrease in share-based compensation expense and accounting, legal, and other professional fees.

Net loss was $42.8 million in the quarter, compared to a net loss of $33.0 million for the same period in the prior year, and $151.8 million for the full year, compared to $164.0 million for the prior year. The improvement in annual net loss was driven by the net positive impact of the items noted above as well as the absence of debt extinguishment in 2023, partially offset by the change in the fair values of warrant and derivative liabilities and higher interest expense in 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $(20.6) million for the quarter 2023, compared to $(26.1) million in the same period in the prior year, and $(77.4) million for the full year, compared to $(69.5) million for the prior year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA for the full year was primarily due to an increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses as a result of our growth initiatives, partially offset by an increase in Adjusted Gross Profit.

Capital expenditures totaled $23.1 million in 2023, up from $22.5 million in 2022.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

As of December 31, 2023, Terran Orbital had $71.7 million of cash on hand and approximately $313.8 million in gross debt obligations. The Company’s debt included $16.9 million in connection with an obligation under one of its PIPE investment subscription agreements, which is payable in cash or equity at the Company’s option, subject to certain limitations.

Backlog

Backlog represents the estimated dollar value of executed contracts, including both funded (firm orders for which funding is authorized and appropriated) and unfunded portions of such contracts, for which work has not been performed. The unfunded portion of enforceable contracts is accounted for as variable consideration and is reported at our estimate of the most likely amount to which the Company is expected to be entitled. Although 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.

Our backlog totaled $2.7 billion as of December 31, 2023, of which $2.4 billion is related to Rivada Space Networks, compared to backlog of $170.8 million as of December 31, 2022.

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Gross Profit is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about our gross profit adjusted for certain non-cash items. Further, we believe Adjusted Gross Profit provides a meaningful measure of operating profitability because we use it for evaluating our business performance, making budgeting decisions, and comparing our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures.

There are material limitations to using Adjusted Gross Profit. Adjusted Gross Profit does not take into account all items which directly affect our gross profit or loss. These limitations are best addressed by considering the economic effects of the excluded items independently and by considering Adjusted Gross Profit in conjunction with gross profit or loss as calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss adjusted for (i) interest, (ii) taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) share-based compensation expense, (v) loss on extinguishment of debt, (vi) change in fair value of warrant and derivative liabilities, and (vii) other non-recurring and/or non-cash items.

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about our operating profitability adjusted for certain non-cash items, non-routine items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in the future, as well as other items that are not core to our operations. Further, we believe Adjusted EBITDA provides a meaningful measure of operating profitability because we use it for evaluating our business performance, making budgeting decisions, and comparing our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures.

There are material limitations to using Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account certain significant items, including depreciation and amortization, interest, taxes, and other adjustments which directly affect our net income or loss. These limitations are best addressed by considering the economic effects of the excluded items independently and by considering Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with net income or loss as calculated in accordance with GAAP.
