Financial Highlights for the Third Quarter Ending September 30, 2024:

Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024, totaled approximately $1.9 million, an increase of $0.9 million compared to total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by increased satellite-related revenue contracts and the timing of fixed price milestone contracts as compared to the prior year.

Cost of revenue increased 69% to approximately $1.8 million, up from approximately $1.1 million in Q3 2023. The increase was driven by the mix of contract types and increased depreciation expenses in our satellite-related business.

The gross profit increased 140% to approximately $38,000, compared to a loss of approximately $90,000 in Q3 2023, which is mainly due to a favorable mix of contract types and increased sales in our higher margin satellite related business.

Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled approximately $3.2 million, a $570,000 decrease from $3.8 million in Q3 2023, primarily due to a reduction in legal fees, payroll expenses, and insurance costs.

Adjusted EBITDA loss, a non-GAAP measure, for the three months ended September 30, 2024, was $2.5 million, compared to a loss of $3.7 million for the same period the prior year, representing a 33% improvement. Total non-GAAP adjustments for interest expense, depreciation and amortization, acquisition deal costs, severance costs, capital markets and advisory fees, equity-based compensation, and warrant costs are provided in the reconciliation table listed below.

Net Loss for the three months ended September 30, 2024, was $3.9 million, compared to a net loss of $4.1 million in the same quarter of 2023.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

To provide investors with additional information in connection with our results as determined in accordance with GAAP, we use non-GAAP measures of adjusted EBITDA. We use adjusted EBITDA in order to evaluate our operating performance and make strategic decisions regarding future direction of the company since it provides a meaningful comparison to our peers using similar measures. We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (as determined by U.S. GAAP) adjusted for interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, acquisition deal costs, severance costs, capital market and advisory fees, equity-based compensation and warrant costs. These non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures made by other companies since not all companies will use the same measures. Therefore, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for relevant U.S. GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with information presented on a U.S. GAAP basis.

The following table reconciles adjusted EBITDA to net loss (the most comparable GAAP measure) for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:
