Karman Space & Defense Reports Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2026 Financial Results

HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif., August 6, 2026 – Karman Space & Defense (“Karman”, “Karman Holdings, Inc.” or “the Company”) (NYSE: KRMN), a leader in the rapid design, development, and production of critical, next-generation systems that align with the core mission priorities of the U.S. Department of War and its allies, and meet the accelerating demand for access to space, today reported second quarter fiscal year 2026 financial results.

Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2026 and subsequent highlights

Record quarterly revenue of $182.1 million driven by year over year organic growth of 24.4% and total growth of 58.2%

Record quarterly net income of $14.0 million, up 106.1% year over year, and earnings per fully diluted share of $0.11, compared to $0.05 in the prior-year quarter

Record quarterly non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $54.6 million, a 54.7% year over year increase, and non-GAAP adjusted earnings per fully diluted share of $0.14, compared to $0.10 in the prior-year quarter

Record backlog of $1.3 billion at the end of the second quarter of 2026, up 65% compared to the end of the fiscal year 2025

Quarterly bookings of nearly $500 million across all end markets, including a large, multi-year contract with a space and launch customer

Agreement to acquire Walker Precision Engineering for approximately $94 million, expanding presence into the European defense market

Completed debt repricing, expected to reduce annual interest expense by approximately $4 million

Raising 2026 outlook to $730 to $745 million in revenue and $215 to $222.5 million in adjusted EBITDA

“Our team produced another quarter of record performance, generating revenue of $182 million driven by year over year organic growth of 24.4 percent and total growth of 58 percent, and adjusted EBITDA of $55 million, an increase of 55 percent,” said Jon Rambeau, chief executive officer of Karman Space & Defense. “Our record $1.3 billion backlog provides exceptionally strong visibility into our fiscal year 2026 outlook and positions us to achieve this year’s goals while building even stronger momentum for 2027 and beyond.

“The demand environment continues to strengthen, with more than $90 billion in recent prime contractor awards for THAAD and PAC-3 interceptors and over $76 billion for new Columbia and Virginia class submarines. Against this backdrop, bookings in the quarter totaled nearly $500 million, including a large, long-term agreement with a leading space and launch customer, and we are actively negotiating three additional long-term defense agreements with a combined potential value of more than $1 billion.

“We are scaling capacity to meet existing program requirements and we are simultaneously going on offense - winning alternative supplier positions on new programs and in new content areas. We believe Karman remains well positioned to create long-term shareholder value in this unique and accelerating demand environment,” Rambeau added.

* not a meaningful figure

The increase in total revenue reflects growth across all end-markets and our diversified portfolio of more than 150 customers and programs.

Growth in Hypersonics and Strategic Missile Defense revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 from the comparable period in the prior year, was primarily driven by growth in key interceptor program production and increased production associated with a new surface-to-surface missile system.

Growth in Space and Launch revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 from the comparable periods in the prior year, was primarily driven by content supporting both legacy and emerging launch providers, partially offset by customer order timing associated with shifting launch schedules.

Growth in Tactical Missiles and Integrated Defense Systems for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 from the comparable period in the prior year, was primarily driven by strength in core production programs, including unmanned aircraft systems and counter-UAS, and emerging programs transitioning to production.

Growth in Maritime Defense Systems for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from the comparable period in the prior year was primarily driven by legacy and next generation submarine programs.

Backlog

As of June 30, 2026, total backlog was $1.3 billion, which represents the total value or current estimated value of existing contracts, less amounts previously invoiced. Contract types include, but are not limited to, purchase orders, long term agreements and contractual authorizations to proceed.

Business Outlook for the Full Year 2026

For the full fiscal year 2026, the Company raises its expectations for total revenue to between $730 million and $745 million, and for non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA to between $215.0 million and $222.5 million, excluding the impact of any future acquisitions.

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is provided in the full year 2026 Outlook on a forward-looking basis. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, because to do so could be misleading and unable to be accomplished without unreasonable effort given the difficulty of projecting event driven transactional and other non-core operating items in any future period. The magnitude of these items, however, may be significant.

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, react to changes in the timing and/or amount of government spending, 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.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Information

We present in this press release certain financial information based on our Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (Adjusted EPS). We believe the non-GAAP financial measures will help investors understand our financial condition and operating results and assess our future prospects. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures, each of which is discussed in greater detail below, are important supplemental measures because they exclude unusual or non-recurring items as well as non-cash items that are unrelated to or may not be indicative of our ongoing operating results. Further, when read in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP results, these non-GAAP financial measures provide a baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying businesses and can be used by management as a tool to help make financial, operational and planning decisions. We may use non-GAAP financial metrics in certain management compensation plans, debt covenants, internal budgetary decision making, and other resource allocation decisions. Finally, these measures are often used by analysts and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry by providing more comparable measures that are less affected by factors such as capital structure.

We recognize that these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations, including that they may be calculated differently by other companies or may be used under different circumstances or for different purposes, thereby affecting their comparability from company to company. In order to compensate for these and the other limitations discussed below, management does not. and readers should not, consider these measures in isolation from or as alternatives to the comparable financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Readers should review the reconciliations below and should not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

We define these non-GAAP financial measures as follows:

EBITDA refers to net income before income taxes, depreciation and amortization and interest expense.

Adjusted EBITDA refers to EBITDA plus, as applicable for each period, adjustments for certain items management believes are not indicative of ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash share-based compensation expenses. Additionally, Adjusted

3

EBITDA excludes certain nonrecurring costs that management excludes in contemplation of budget decisions and are not costs of operating the business, such as entity wide re-branding initiatives or acquisition integration costs, and lender and administrative agent fees associated with discrete amendments. Lastly, Adjusted EBITDA excludes other non-recurring costs including gains or losses from disposition of assets, non-cash impairment losses, non-recurring transaction expenses and other charges or gains that the Company believes are not part of the ongoing operations of its business. The resulting expense or benefit from these other non-recurring costs is inconsistent in amount and frequency.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin - Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenue. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are not measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and they should not be considered an alternative to any financial measures that were calculated under U.S. GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are used to facilitate a comparison of the ordinary, ongoing and customary course of our operations on a consistent basis from period to period and provide an additional understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are driven by changes in volume, performance, contract mix and general and administrative expenses and investment levels. Performance, as used in this definition, refers to changes in profitability and is primarily based on adjustments to estimates at completion on individual contracts. These adjustments result from increases or decreases to the estimated value of the contract, the estimated costs to complete the contract, or both. These measures therefore assist management and our board and may be useful to investors in comparing our operating performance consistently over time as they remove the impact of our capital structure, asset base and items outside the control of the management team and expenses that do not relate to our core operations. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies as other companies may have calculated the measures differently.

Adjusted EPS represents GAAP net income (loss) per fully diluted share, excluding transaction related expenses, integration expenses and non-recurring costs, lender and administrative agent fees, share-based compensation and other non-recurring costs as they are not representative of our operating performance.

Forward-Looking Statements

This announcement may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We intend all forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts and by the use of forward-looking words such as “expect,” “expectation,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “may,” “could,” “intend,” “belief,” “plan,” “estimate,” “target,” “predict,” “likely,” “seek,” “project,” “model,” “ongoing,” “will,” “should,” “forecast,” “outlook” or similar terminology. These statements are based on and reflect our current expectations, estimates, assumptions and/ or projections, our perception of historical trends and current conditions, as well as other factors that we believe are appropriate and reasonable under the circumstances. Forward-looking statements are neither predictions nor guarantees of future events, circumstances or performance and are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated by those statements. There can be no assurance that our expectations, estimates, assumptions and/or projections, including with respect to the future earnings and performance or capital structure of Karman, will prove to be correct or that any of our expectations, estimates or projections will be achieved.

Numerous factors could cause our actual results and events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, that a significant portion of our revenue is generated from contracts with the United States military and U.S. military spending is dependent upon the U.S. defense budget; U.S. government contracts are subject to a competitive bidding process that can consume significant resources without generating any revenue; our business and operations expose us to numerous legal and regulatory requirements, and any violation of these requirements could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, prospects and financial condition; our inability to adequately enforce and protect our intellectual property or defend against assertions of infringement could prevent or restrict our ability to compete; and we have in the past consummated acquisitions and intend to continue to pursue acquisitions, and our business may be adversely affected if we cannot consummate acquisitions on satisfactory terms, or if we cannot effectively integrate acquired operations. Readers and/or attendees are directed to the risk factors identified in the filings we make with the SEC from time to time, copies of which are available free of charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov under Karman Holdings Inc.

The forward-looking statements included in this announcement are only made as of the date of this announcement. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by any applicable law.

Includes depreciation of property, plant and equipment, amortization of intangible assets and right-of-use assets. Depreciation expense includes allocated depreciation from cost of goods sold of $3.1 million and $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $6.0 million and $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

2.

Represents legal and due diligence fees incurred in connection with planned and completed acquisitions, which are required to be expensed as incurred. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, these expenses are primarily related to the Seemann acquisition. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, these expenses are primarily related to the MTI and ISP acquisitions. Additionally, the Company incurred certain professional service fees related to its IPO that did not meet the requirements to be deferred issuance costs. These costs are considered non-recurring and outside the ordinary course of business, and therefore are not indicative of ongoing operating performance, which was reflected in the six months ended June 30, 2025.

3.

Includes company-wide system implementation expenses company re-branding costs and compliance efforts. This category also includes post-acquisition integration costs, and employee expenses related to acquisitions or restructuring activities.

4.

Reflects non-recurring lender fees associated with discrete amendments to the Company’s credit agreement, separate from ongoing administrative fees.

5.

Reflects share-based compensation expenses. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, these expenses related to the Company’s RSUs and PSUs. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, these expenses related to the Company’s P Units and Phantom Units. These Units were fully vested in connection with the completion of the Company’s IPO in February 2025.

6.

Represents items management believes are not indicative of ongoing operating performance, including estimated legal settlements and related professional fees, as well as professional fees associated with other non-recurring events. Other non-recurring costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 represent the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs associated with our previous term loan, which was refinanced with the new Term Loan B.

7.
