Sidus Space Reports First Quarter 2024 Financial Results and Provides Business Update

Sidus Space, Inc. (NASDAQ:SIDU) (the “Company” or “Sidus”), a Space and Data-as-a-Service satellite company, announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024 and provided a business update. The Company is scheduled to host a conference call and webcast today, Monday, May 20th, at 5:00 p.m. ET.

“During the first quarter of 2024, we successfully launched and deployed our first LizzieSat from the SpaceX Transporter-10 Rideshare Mission, representing the first of several satellites we are planning to launch into Low Earth Orbit. With this new launch, the first commercial satellite designed, manufactured and operated by the company, we have demonstrated our expertise in vertical manufacturing integration as well as our ability to successfully deploy and operate a 275lb satellite with multiple technologies supporting a broad range of applications and customers. This unprecedented success lays the foundation for our continued growth as we prepare for LizzieSat-2 and 3, which are manifested for launch with SpaceX in the fourth quarter of this year,” said Carol Craig, Founder and CEO of Sidus.

“Successfully launching LizzieSat into orbit was a key milestone for Sidus and a vital element of our strategy to position our company as a leader in the Space ecosystem. Our Space-based Data-as-a-Service business model that is enabled by our LizzieSats has the capacity to scale rapidly and generate meaningful, high-margin revenue as we continue deploying additional LizzieSats into orbit,” Ms. Craig concluded.

  • Appointed Richard J. Berman to Board of Directors

Financial Highlights for the First Quarter Ending March 31, 2024:

Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024, totaled approximately $1.1 million, a decrease of $1.2 million compared to total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024. This decrease was primarily driven by the timing of fixed price manufacturing milestone contracts related to delivery of hardware as directed by the contract requirements. Additionally, timing of satellite contract payments from existing customers varies for each calendar year. Due to customer driven delays, both manufacturing and satellite milestone payments shifted to the right and are expected to increase in the second half of the year.

Cost of revenue decreased 29% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, to approximately $1 million as compared to approximately $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in cost of revenue is primarily driven by the reduction of total revenue.

Gross profit margin decreased to 8% for the first quarter of 2024 as compared to 40% for the first quarter of 2023 due to the higher percentage of material costs as compared to labor for manufacturing contracts and the shifting of the satellite milestones due to customer delays along with the change in calculation of COGS.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, totaled approximately $3.6 million as compared to $3.5 million for the same period the prior year. The slight increase was primarily due to fundraising expenses from two capital raises in Q1 2024 and an increase in Mission Operations support expense related to ground support required for tracking and communicating with our first satellite, partly offset by a reduction in D&O insurance expenses, marketing and investor relations expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA loss, a non-GAAP measure, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, totaled $2.7 million as compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $2.6 million for the same period the prior year. 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 March 31, 2024, was $3.8 million as compared to a net loss of $3.4 million for the same period the prior year.

Balance Sheet:

At March 31, 2024, the Company had cash of $6.2 million as compared to $1.2 million at December 31, 2023. During the quarter, the Company received gross proceeds of $15.2 million through the exercise of warrants and two offerings.

Current liabilities decreased by approximately $4.0 million to approximately $8.2 million as of March 31, 2024, from approximately $12.2 million as of December 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in accounts payable and other current liabilities and our asset-based loan liability.

Total stockholders’ equity increased to $17.2 million as of March 31, 2024 as compared to $7.1 million as of December 31, 2023.

As of May 20, 2024 the Company had 4,081,344 Class A common shares and 100,000 Class B common shares.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this press release about future expectations, plans and prospects, as well as any other statements regarding matters that are not historical facts, may constitute ‘forward-looking statements’ within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words ‘anticipate,’ ‘believe,’ ‘continue,’ ‘could,’ ‘estimate,’ ‘expect,’ ‘intend,’ ‘may,’ ‘plan,’ ‘potential,’ ‘predict,’ ‘project,’ ‘should,’ ‘target,’ ‘will,’ ‘would’ and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including: the uncertainties related to market conditions and other factors discussed in Sidus Space’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any forward-looking statements contained in this press release speak only as of the date hereof, and Sidus Space, Inc. specifically disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

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 March 31, 2024 and 2023:
