Redwire posts record $117 million quarterly revenue, narrows loss
Redwire's Q2 2026 revenue rose 89.6% to a record $117.1 million as gross margin and backlog also hit highs.
what happened
Redwire reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of $117.1 million, up 89.6% year over year and a company record, with gross margin improving to a record 27.8% and contracted backlog reaching a record $542.1 million, per the company's investor relations release. Net loss was $41.0 million and adjusted EBITDA was negative $3.2 million; total liquidity reached $607.8 million. Redwire reaffirmed its full-year 2026 revenue guidance of $450 million to $500 million.
why it matters
The record revenue and backlog point to Redwire's defense and in-space manufacturing lines scaling faster than its cost base, with the reaffirmed guidance signaling management does not see the growth as one-quarter noise. Whether a still-sizable net loss narrows further as backlog converts to revenue is what investors and competitors will watch next.
