“2025 was a transformational year for Voyager. We successfully completed our IPO, delivered record fourth quarter revenue, and closed the year with record backlog and liquidity over $700 million. Demand across defense, national security and space continues to accelerate and we are investing to address that increasing demand,” said Voyager Technologies CEO Dylan Taylor.

Taylor continued, “The strategic acquisitions completed this year — particularly ExoTerra and Estes Energetics — significantly enhance our propulsion and energetics platform, deepen our vertical integration, and expand our ability to support Golden Dome missile defense programs, resilient space infrastructure, and mission-critical national security priorities. Starlab accomplished meaningful milestones, ending the year with the completion of our commercial Critical Design Review, validating the maturity of the program as we transition to full system procurement and development. With record backlog, enhanced capabilities, and ample liquidity, we are entering 2026 from a position of strength — focused on converting accelerating demand into sustained revenue growth and long-term shareholder value.”

Business Outlook for the Full Year 2026

For the full year 2026, Voyager now expects total net sales in the range of $225 million to $255 million, representing year-over-year growth in the range of 35% to 53%. This outlook underscores the resilience of our business model and reflects the successful execution of its growth strategy, including contributions from recently acquired businesses, while recognizing uncertainty in the near-term attributable to the government shutdown.

The foregoing estimates are forward-looking and reflect management’s view of current and future market conditions, subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including certain assumptions with respect to our ability to efficiently and on a timely basis integrate acquisitions, obtain and retain contracts, changes in the timing and/or amount of government spending, react to changes in the demand for our products, activities of competitors, changes in the regulatory environment, and general economic and business conditions in the United States and elsewhere in the world. Investors are reminded that actual results may differ materially from these estimates and investors should review all risks related to achievement of the guidance reflected under “forward-looking statements” below and in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Business and Financial Performance Results

Voyager’s net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2025, were $46.7 million, up 24% year over year, and up 46% when adjusted for the planned wind-down of the NASA services contract within the Space Solutions segment. For the full year, achieved net sales of $166.4 million, up 15% year over year, and up 27% when adjusted for the planned wind-down of the NASA services contract within the Space Solutions segment.

Voyager’s Defense and National Security segment provides leading technology capabilities that support marquee programs with expertise in defense systems, signals intelligence, communication technologies, and guidance, navigation and control systems. For the three month ended December 31, 2025, the Defense and National Security segment net sales increased $13.7 million, or 63% year over year, to $35.7 million, primarily driven by progress on the Next Generation Interceptor (“NGI”) program and an undisclosed program. For the full year the Defense and National Security segment increased net sales 59% to $123.0 million.

Voyager’s Space Solutions segment operates at the forefront of space technology, specializing in mission enabling, reliable hardware, software and engineering services for space missions. For the three month ended December 31, 2025, the Space Solutions segment net sales declined $5.2 million, or 29% year over year, to $12.5 million primarily due to the anticipated conclusion of a multi-year service contract with NASA. For the full year the Space Solutions segment experienced decreased net sales of (36)% to $47.6 million.

Our Starlab Space Stations segment is a Voyager-led, majority-owned joint venture focused on developing the commercial replacement for the International Space Station. While Starlab does not generate revenue today, nor is expected to generate revenue in the near term, we have received significant funding from NASA under our Space Act Agreement. In the fourth quarter of 2025, Starlab achieved four key milestones and received $9.5 million in cash from NASA, highlighting strong progress and continued momentum.

Backlog

As of December 31, 2025, total backlog was $265.6 million, including $146.1 million of funded backlog from signed contracts with remaining work. Funded contracts represent definitized contracts for performance obligations from customers that contain the right to receive consideration in exchange for goods transferred to the customer. The unfunded portion (also referred to as unfunded contract options) includes contract options not yet exercised and potential work under Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contracts.

Innovation Spend

Innovation is a foundational pillar of our long-term strategy and a key differentiator across the defense, national security and space sectors. For the three month ended December 31, 2025, innovation spend was 21.9% of net sales, excluding Starlab, and 132% on a consolidated basis. See Table 5 for additional details.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP and other companies in our industry may calculate them differently than we do. As a result, non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical and comparative tools and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute, for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. In addition, in evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted earnings per share and free cash flow, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to those eliminated in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted loss per share and free cash flow should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual items. Management compensates for these limitations by primarily relying on our GAAP results in addition to using Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted earnings per share and free cash flow supplementally.

Adjusted EBITDA

We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be a useful, supplemental, measure of our operating performance. We use Adjusted EBITDA to supplement GAAP measures in evaluating the performance of our business and the effectiveness of our strategies, to make budgeting decisions, make certain compensation decisions, and to compare our performance against that of our peer companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures.

In addition, we believe Adjusted EBITDA provides a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business, as they remove the impact of our capital structure and other items not indicative of our core operating performance from operating results.

We define EBITDA as net loss attributable to Voyager Technologies, Inc. plus (less) finance and interest expense, provision for income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for stock-based compensation, business acquisition costs, restructuring charges, impairment losses, income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, and other items we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance, including incremental organizational costs attributable to our initial public offering, changes in the fair value of earnout liabilities, and foreign exchange gain/loss.

Free Cash Flow

We consider free cash flow to be a useful, supplemental measure of our ability to generate cash on a normalized basis. We use free cash flow to supplement GAAP measures in evaluating our flexibility to allocate capital and pursue opportunities that may enhance shareholder value and the effectiveness of our strategies, to make budgeting decisions and to compare our performance against that of our peer companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures.

We believe that while expenditures and dispositions of property, plant and equipment will fluctuate on a period-to-period basis, we seek to ensure that we have adequate capital on hand to maintain ongoing operations and enable growth of the business. Additionally, free cash flow is of limited usefulness in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures due to the fact the measures do not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations or payments.

We define free cash flow as the sum of our cash (used in) provided by operating activities less our net capital expenditures. The net capital expenditures of the Company are defined as the gross capital expenditures for the purchase of property and equipment less the grant funding we received in order to make such purchases. Based on the nature of government grants for purposes of funding capital expenditures on our Starlab program, these grants are pass through for purposes of making capital expenditures as they are directly used to source funding on capital expenditures. Our calculation of free cash flow may not be comparable to the calculation of similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Adjusted Earnings Per Share

We consider adjusted earnings per share to be a useful, supplemental measure of our operations on a per share basis adjusting for items that are considered either non-operational or significant infrequent expenses or that are sources of income that are not recurring to the business on a frequent basis. We define adjusted earnings per share as the net income/loss attributable to common stockholders adjusted for stock-based compensation, business acquisition costs, restructuring, and other items mainly related to financing expenses and other individually immaterial items divided by our diluted basis number of weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Since the adjustments made for presentational purposes do not impact the tax basis of the Company, the adjustments have been presented on a tax free basis.

Innovation Spend

We are focused on delivering innovative solutions to the defense, national security and space end markets, and research and development is at the core of our business. We believe innovation spend and innovation spend excluding Starlab provide our management and investors useful measures of our aggregate spend on research and development type activities in support of our customers’ needs and our future growth.

However, innovation spend is an operating metric, not a financial measure calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP, and companies in our industry may calculate innovation spend or similar operating metrics differently than we do. We define innovation spend as research and development costs associated with IRS Section 174 categorization, as well as spend on designated development programs. Development programs are defined as initiatives that, when developed, will expand the Company’s product offerings under a customer funded arrangement. Innovation spend is comprised of various costs recognized in cost of sales and research and development costs within the consolidated statements of operations, as well as certain costs capitalized within property and equipment, net on our consolidated balance sheets. We define innovation spend excluding Starlab as innovation spend, minus the portion of innovation spend attributable to Starlab Space Stations.
