Business Context and Reporting Period

This report covers the quarterly period ended June 30, 2025. Voyager Technologies, Inc. is a space technology and defense company developing mission-critical capabilities, including the Starlab commercial space station. The quarter was defined by the Company's Initial Public Offering (IPO) on June 12, 2025, where it sold 14.2 million shares of Class A common stock at $31.00 per share, raising approximately $409.4 million in net proceeds. The Company is classified as an emerging growth company and a non-accelerated filer.

Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Revenue Growth: Net sales increased 24.6% year-over-year in Q2 2025, driven primarily by a 84.9% surge in the Defense and National Security segment ($35.2M vs $19.0M). This was partially offset by a 44.7% decline in the Space Solutions segment due to lower U.S. government program volumes.
• Expense Expansion: Selling, General, and Administrative (SG&A) expenses more than doubled (127.5% increase) to $30.2 million, largely due to $10.4 million in stock-based compensation and legal costs associated with the IPO.
• Debt Elimination: The Company extinguished all outstanding debt, including a $64.4 million Term Loan and convertible notes, using proceeds from a new $200 million credit facility and the IPO. This resulted in a one-time loss on debt extinguishment of $7.8 million.
• Liquidity Surge: Cash balances increased from $55.9 million at year-end 2024 to $468.9 million at June 30, 2025, primarily due to IPO proceeds.

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

• Backlog: Total backlog stands at $170.9 million, with $90.3 million funded. Management expects to recognize approximately 77.4% of the funded backlog as revenue by the end of 2025.
• Starlab Development: The Starlab Space Stations segment generated no revenue but incurred significant costs. The Company received $22.5 million in NASA grant funding during the quarter to offset R&D and capital expenditures. The segment remains in a pre-revenue development phase.
• Capital Expenditures: Capital spending was heavy at $30.9 million for the quarter, with $30.2 million attributed to Starlab construction.
• Risks: Key risks include customer concentration (65.5% of funded backlog tied to three customers), reliance on U.S. government funding, cost overruns on fixed-price contracts, and the execution risks associated with the Starlab space station program.
• Tax Legislation: The "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" signed in July 2025 allows for the expensing of R&D and 100% bonus depreciation, which management anticipates will have a favorable effect on future financial conditions.

Investor Verification Checklist

• Debt Status: Verify the terms of the new $200 million credit facility and confirm no outstanding principal remains on the extinguished Term Loan.
• Starlab Funding: Confirm the timeline for future NASA milestone payments and the sufficiency of current cash to fund the remaining Starlab construction costs without further dilution.
• Revenue Mix: Monitor the sustainability of the Defense segment growth versus the decline in Space Solutions to ensure long-term margin stability.
• Backlog Realization: Track the conversion rate of the $90.3 million funded backlog into actual revenue in Q3 and Q4 2025.
• Non-GAAP Reconciliation: Review the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, noting the significant add-backs for stock-based compensation ($11.5M in Q2) and debt extinguishment costs ($7.8M).
