Intuitive Machines Reports Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results; Continues Record Backlog Expansion With Quarter-end Backlog of $1.8 Billion

Houston, TX, August 13, 2026 -- Intuitive Machines, Inc. (Nasdaq: LUNR, “Intuitive Machines,” or the “Company”), a

leading space technology and infrastructure services company, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Intuitive Machines CEO Steve Altemus said, “We delivered a strong quarter, highlighted by revenue over four times Q2 2025 as we executed across our programs, recorded unprecedented bookings and backlog, and positioned the Company for the next phase of growth.”

Highlights

•Closed Goonhilly Earth Station and COMSAT acquisition in August to expand our space‑to‑ground data services network configured to support missions across LEO, MEO, GEO, cislunar, and deep space environments

•Booked $920 million of awards in Q2 with an additional $300 million of awards in Q3 QTD across commercial, civil, and national security space customers

•Signed $600+ million contract for three commercial GEO satellites as commercial demand strength continues

•Awarded additional CLPS lander contract under NASA’s Moonbase program, Intuitive Machines’ sixth CLPS mission, for a standardized production lander

•Expanded YoY National Security revenue from 3% to 30% in Q2 2026; expect continued growth driven by an award in July for 18 spacecraft to support Accelerated Missile Defense Tranche 3 ("AMDT3") Golden Dome constellation

•Contracted with NASA for two prime lunar reconnaissance awards (Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera “LROC” and ShadowCam) to lead lunar imaging operations, data storage, data processing, and analytics in support of NASA’s Artemis Program / Moonbase Initiatives and commercial lunar missions

Financial Highlights

•Achieved record quarterly revenue of $206 million driven by spacecraft production, CLPS, OMES, and NSNS execution

•Ended Q2 with a strong cash balance of $367 million; Q2 included strategic growth investments through the procurement of advanced inventory that directly resulted in new awards during the quarter; additional investments were made across our ground station network, along with long-lead material purchases for satellites two through five of our lunar constellation, as we look to accelerate NSNS recurring service revenues

•Ended Q2 with record backlog of $1.8 billion, an increase of $1.5 billion from year-end 2025 as Intuitive Machines booked record levels of diverse awards across commercial, civil, and national security space customers

Mr. Altemus continued, “We believe the next era of space will require a next-generation space prime, capable of building spacecraft, connecting them through resilient networks, and operating the resulting infrastructure across civil, commercial, and national security markets. Over the past eighteen months, every strategic decision we have made has been focused on building that next-generation space prime.”

Outlook

•Full-year 2026 revenue of $900 million - $1 billion

•Full-year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA positive
