Increases 2025 Full Year Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA Guidance

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ:KTOS), a Technology Company in the Defense, National Security and Commercial Markets, today reported its second quarter 2025 financial results, including Revenues of $351.5 million, Operating Income of $3.7 million, Net Income of $2.9 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $28.3 million and a consolidated book to bill ratio of 0.7 to 1.0.

Second quarter 2025 Net Income and Operating Income includes non-cash stock compensation expense of $8.6 million, and Company-funded Research and Development (R&D) expense of $10.2 million, including efforts in our Space, Satellite, Unmanned Systems and Microwave Electronic businesses, and expense to accrue $2.0 million related to settlement of a legal matter, offset partially by non-recurring credits of $1.1 million related to the resolution of a previously recorded contingent liability.

Kratos reported second quarter 2025 GAAP Net Income of $2.9 million and GAAP Net Income per share of $0.02, compared to GAAP Net Income of $7.9 million and GAAP Net Income per share of $0.05, for the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) was $0.11 for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $0.14 for the second quarter of 2024.

Second quarter 2025 Revenues of $351.5 million increased $51.4 million, reflecting 15.2 percent organic growth from second quarter 2024 Revenues of $300.1 million. Organic revenue growth was reported in our KGS segment of 27.1 percent, with the most notable growth in our Defense Rocket Systems and C5ISR businesses, with organic revenue growth rates of 116.6 percent and 25.4 percent, respectively, compared to the second quarter of 2024.

Second quarter 2025 Cash Flow Used in Operations was $10.6 million, primarily reflecting the working capital requirements related to the revenue growth impacting our receivables, increases in inventories for anticipated future deliveries and ramps in production and investments we are making related to certain development initiatives in our Unmanned Systems (KUS) segment. Free Cash Flow Used in Operations for the second quarter of 2025 was $31.1 million after funding of $20.5 million of capital expenditures.

For the second quarter of 2025, KUS generated Revenues of $73.2 million, compared to $85.8 million in the second quarter of 2024, which included revenues of $17.4 million related to an international target drone shipment made during the second quarter of 2024. KUS's Operating Loss was $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to Operating Income of $3.6 million in the second quarter of 2024. KUS's Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2025 was $3.6 million, compared to $7.2 million for the second quarter of 2024, reflecting the impact of the revenue volume and continued impact of increased material and subcontractor and labor costs on multi-year fixed price production contracts under terms which were negotiated in 2020 and 2021 that we are unable to seek recovery and which we are unable to renegotiate until the next multi-year production lot.

KUS's book-to-bill ratio for the second quarter of 2025 was 0.9 to 1.0 and 1.3 to 1.0 for the twelve months ended June 29, 2025, with bookings of $63.7 million for the three months ended June 29, 2025, and bookings of $359.5 million for the twelve months ended June 29, 2025. Total backlog for KUS at the end of the second quarter of 2025 was $337.6 million, compared to $347.1 million at the end of the first quarter of 2025.

For the second quarter of 2025, Kratos' Government Solutions (KGS) segment Revenues of $278.3 million increased from Revenues of $214.3 million in the second quarter of 2024, reflecting a 27.1 percent organic growth rate, excluding the impact of the recent acquisition of certain assets of Norden Millimeter, Inc. The increased Revenues includes organic revenue growth across all KGS businesses, with the most notable growth in our Defense Rocket Support business which includes the timing of certain hypersonic missions, and in our C5ISR businesses with organic revenue growth rates of 116.6 percent and 25.4 percent, respectively, over the second quarter of 2024.

KGS reported Operating Income of $12.6 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $15.5 million in the second quarter of 2024, primarily reflecting the mix in revenues, particularly impacted by a less favorable mix in our Space, Training and Cyber business. Second quarter 2025 KGS Adjusted EBITDA was $24.7 million, compared to second quarter 2024 KGS Adjusted EBITDA of $22.7 million, primarily reflecting the mix in revenues and resources.

KGS reported a book-to-bill ratio of 0.7 to 1.0 for the second quarter of 2025, a book to bill ratio of 1.2 to 1.0 for the last twelve months ended June 29, 2025 and bookings of $193.3 million and $1.041 billion for the three and last twelve months ended June 29, 2025, respectively. KGS's total backlog was $1.076 billion at the end of the second quarter of 2025, compared to $1.161 billion at the end of the first quarter of 2025.

Kratos reported consolidated bookings of $257.0 million and a book-to-bill ratio of 0.7 to 1.0 for the second quarter of 2025, and consolidated bookings of $1.401 billion and a book-to-bill ratio of 1.2 to 1.0 for the last twelve months ended June 29, 2025. Consolidated backlog was $1.414 billion on June 29, 2025, as compared to $1.508 billion on March 30, 2025. Kratos' bid and proposal pipeline was $13.0 billion at June 29, 2025, as compared to $12.6 billion at March 30, 2025. Backlog at June 29, 2025, included funded backlog of $1.125 billion and unfunded backlog of $288.6 million.

Eric DeMarco, Kratos' President and CEO, said, "A generational recapitalization of strategic weapon systems is underway, with significant global funding being committed by the U.S. and its allies, including as represented by a planned U.S. 2026 National Security spend exceeding $1 trillion, NATO committing 5% of member GDP to defense, and Asian allies looking to do the same. The Global Defense and National Security Market is currently approximately $2.5 trillion, led by the United States "peace through strength" posture and is expected to grow for the foreseeable future. Since our last report to you, President Trump signed the Reconciliation Bill into law, supplementing defense spending by an additional $150 billion, including increased funding for drones, air defense systems, missiles, radars, space and satellites and the Golden Dome initiative, each related to primary Kratos capability areas."

Mr. DeMarco continued, "In addition to significant increased funding expected for our industry, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth recently announced sweeping changes to the way the Pentagon will buy and field unmanned aerial systems, which is related to a June 6, 2025 Presidential Executive order on "Unleashing American Drone Dominance", both expected to accelerate the acquisition and fielding of drones. Also, further emphasizing the new focus on streamlining defense acquisition, promoting innovation and commercial "ready to go" solutions to deliver capabilities to the warfighter faster and more efficiently, Senator Roger Wicker recently introduced the FORGED Act and House Armed Services Committee Chair Mike Rogers and Ranking Member Adam Smith introduced the related SPEED Act, all of which, if enacted, we expect to benefit Kratos and our "First to Market" strategy."

Mr. DeMarco added, "We believe that we are seeing direct positive impact from these actions, including Kratos' Q225 17 percent revenue growth rate, our near record backlog, our record $13 billion opportunity pipeline and LTM book–to–bill ratio of 1.2 to 1.0. Additionally, since the end of the second quarter, we have been informed that we have been successful as prime, on a new, single award, potential total value up to $750 million program, internal code name Poseidon, which we expect to receive a formal contract by the end of this year. Additionally, we were also recently informed that Kratos, with our strategic partner, were down selected on another large, new program of record opportunity we call Deimos".

Mr. DeMarco went on, "Virtually every Kratos business unit is forecasting significant future organic growth, including our hypersonic system franchise, small jet engines for drones, missiles and loitering munitions, our Israeli based microwave electronics business, and our military grade hardware business supporting missile, radar, hypersonic, counter UAS and strategic weapon systems. We are also expecting increased EBITDA margins beginning in 2026 and continuing thereafter, as new higher margin programs begin, certain lower margin contracts are renegotiated at renewal, and as we reduce costs in certain areas. We expect to continue to make important investments in property, plant, facilities, equipment etc., over the next two years, in conjunction with our funded customers, partners, initiatives and programs, to capture new opportunities, rebuild the industrial base, further grow our business and generate additional value for all Kratos stakeholders."

Mr. DeMarco concluded, "In 2015, Kratos Mako tactical jet drones flew manned-unmanned teaming with Marine Corps Harrier jet aircraft, establishing Kratos as a first-to-market innovation leader, delivering actual relevant products, not PowerPoints, to the customer. As Kratos invests its own money in research and product development, we are incentivized to move fast, do it right, at a low cost, and always with an eye on being able to produce our military grade products, hardware and software affordably, at scale, and generate an adequate return for our shareholders. We believe that Kratos is in the right places, at the right time, with the right products, and importantly at the right affordable price points, to address our customer and partners requirements, to deliver significant value to Kratos stakeholders today."

Financial Guidance

We are providing our initial 2025 third quarter guidance and increasing our full year 2025 Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance range, which includes our assumptions, including as related to: current forecasted business mix, employee sourcing, hiring and retention; manufacturing, production and supply chain disruptions; parts shortages and related continued significant cost and price increases in each of these areas, that are impacting the industry and Kratos.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Performance Metrics

This news release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including organic revenue growth rates, Adjusted EPS (computed using income before income taxes, excluding depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, amortization of capitalized contract and development costs, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and restructuring related items and other, which includes, but is not limited to, legal related items, non-recoverable rates and costs, and foreign transaction gains and losses, less the estimated impact to income taxes) and Adjusted EBITDA (which excludes, among other things, acquisition and restructuring related items, stock compensation expense, foreign transaction gains and losses, and the associated margin rates). Additional non-GAAP financial measures include Free Cash Flow from Operations computed as Cash Flow from Operations less Capital Expenditures plus proceeds from sale of assets and Adjusted EBITDA related to our KUS and KGS businesses. Kratos believes this information is useful to investors because it provides a basis for measuring the Company's available capital resources, the actual and forecasted operating performance of the Company's business and the Company's cash flow, excluding non-recurring items and non-cash items that would normally be included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company's management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, along with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, in evaluating the Company's actual and forecasted operating performance, capital resources and cash flow. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, and investors should carefully evaluate the Company's financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial results. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures as reported by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies. As appropriate, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and information reconciling these non-GAAP financial measures to the Company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP are included in this news release.

Another Performance Metric the Company believes is a key performance indicator in our industry is our Book to Bill Ratio as it provides investors with a measure of the amount of bookings or contract awards as compared to the amount of revenues that have been recorded during the period and provides an indicator of how much of the Company's backlog is being burned or utilized in a certain period. The Book to Bill Ratio is computed as the number of bookings or contract awards in the period divided by the revenues recorded for the same period. The Company believes that the rolling or last twelve months' Book to Bill Ratio is meaningful since the timing of quarter-to-quarter bookings can vary.

Unaudited Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures

Note: (1) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure defined as GAAP net income adjusted for net interest income (expense), provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense of intangible assets, amortization of capitalized contract and development costs, stock-based compensation, acquisition and restructuring related items and other, and foreign transaction (gain) loss.

Adjusted EBITDA as calculated by us may be calculated differently than Adjusted EBITDA for other companies. We have provided Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is a commonly used measure of financial performance in comparable companies and is provided to help investors evaluate companies on a consistent basis, as well as to enhance understanding of our operating results. Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as either an alternative to net income (loss) or as an indicator of our operating performance or an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. The adjustments to calculate this non-GAAP financial measure and the basis for such adjustments are outlined below.
Please refer to the following table below that reconciles GAAP net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA.

The adjustments to calculate this non-GAAP financial measure, and the basis for such adjustments, are outlined below:

Interest income and interest expense, net. The Company receives interest income on investments and incurs interest expense on loans, capital leases and other financing arrangements, including the amortization of issue discounts and deferred financing costs. These amounts may vary from period to period due to changes in cash and debt balances.

Income taxes. The Company's tax expense can fluctuate materially from period to period due to tax adjustments that may not be directly related to underlying operating performance or to the current period of operations and may not necessarily reflect the impact of utilization of our NOLs.

Depreciation. The Company incurs depreciation expense (recorded in cost of revenues and in operating expenses) related to capital assets purchased, leased or constructed to support the ongoing operations of the business. The assets are recorded at cost or fair value and are depreciated over the estimated useful lives of individual assets.

Amortization of intangible assets. The Company incurs amortization of intangible expense related to acquisitions it has made. These intangible assets are valued at the time of acquisition and are amortized over the estimated useful lives.

Amortization of capitalized contract and development costs. The Company incurs amortization of previously capitalized software development and non-recurring engineering costs related to certain targets in its Unmanned Systems, ballistic missile target and space and satellite businesses as related units are sold or over the estimated useful life, as applicable.

Stock-based compensation expense. The Company incurs expense related to stock-based compensation included in its GAAP presentation of selling, general and administrative expense. Although stock-based compensation is an expense of the Company and viewed as a form of compensation, these expenses vary in amount from period to period, and are affected by market forces that are difficult to predict and are not within the control of management, such as the market price and volatility of the Company's shares, risk-free interest rates and the expected term and forfeiture rates of the awards. Management believes that exclusion of these expenses allows comparison of operating results to those of other companies that disclose non-GAAP financial measures that exclude stock-based compensation.

Foreign transaction (gain) loss. The Company incurs transaction gains and losses which are not hedged related to transactions with foreign customers in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. In addition, certain intercompany transactions can give rise to realized and unrealized foreign currency gains and losses.

Acquisition and transaction related items. The Company incurs transaction related costs, such as legal and accounting fees and other expenses, related to acquisitions and divestiture activities. Management believes these items are outside the normal operations of the Company's business and are not indicative of ongoing operating results.

Restructuring costs. The Company incurs restructuring costs for cost reduction actions which include employee termination costs, facility shut-down related costs and lease commitment costs for unused, excess or exited facilities. Management believes that these costs are not indicative of ongoing operating results as they are either non-recurring and/or not expected when full capacity and volumes are achieved.

Legal related items. The Company incurs costs related to pending legal settlements and other legal related matters. Management believes these items are outside the normal operations of the Company's business and are not indicative of ongoing operating results.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company expects to continue to incur expenses similar to the Adjusted EBITDA financial adjustments described above, and investors should not infer from the Company's presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure that these costs are unusual, infrequent, or non-recurring.

Unaudited Non-GAAP Measures
Computation of Adjusted Earnings Per Share
(in millions, except per share data)


Adjusted income and adjusted income per diluted common share (Adjusted EPS) are non-GAAP measures for reporting financial performance and exclude the impact of certain items and, therefore, have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that exclusion of these items assists in providing a more complete understanding of the Company's underlying results and trends and allows for comparability with our peer company index and industry. The Company uses these measures along with the corresponding GAAP financial measures to manage the Company's business and to evaluate its performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace. The Company defines adjusted income before amortization of intangible assets, depreciation, stock-based compensation, foreign transaction gain/loss, and acquisition and restructuring related items and other. The estimated impact to income taxes includes the impact to the effective tax rate, current tax provision and deferred tax provision, and excludes the impact of discrete items, including transaction related expenses and release of valuation allowance, or benefit related to the add-backs.*

Adjusted EPS reflects adjusted income on a per share basis using weighted average diluted shares outstanding.

The following table reconciles the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures.

*The impact to income taxes is calculated by recasting income before income taxes to include the add-backs involved in determining Adjusted income before income taxes and recalculating the income tax provision, including current and deferred income taxes, using the Adjusted income before income taxes. The recalculation also adjusts for any discrete tax expense, including transaction related expenses and the release of valuation allowance, or benefit related to the add-backs.
