First, fiscal 2026 GAAP net loss $265.1 million against adjusted EBITDA $286 million. Second, the gap is mostly a $240.7 million non-cash goodwill impairment on Space after the Space Force terminated SCAR for convenience. Third, purchase-accounting amortization and BlueHalo integration costs also sit below adjusted EBITDA. Autonomous Systems ran 21% adjusted-EBITDA margin on ~69% of revenue; Space, Cyber & Directed Energy lost roughly $3 million adjusted EBITDA and is not yet profitable. $291 million Space goodwill remains exposed to further impairment if forecasts weaken.

China's new export controls on lithium-ion batteries, materials, and equipment sit suspended until at least November 2026. For those of us keeping score: the drone supply chain's U.S.-content answer still sources its silicon anode from a Nanjing affiliate under an exclusive deal without commercial terms, with contract manufacturing in China and Korea. An $18.1 million DIU contract requires qualifying non-China sources. We're racing to become the domestic battery we're marketed as. That's okay.
