Record 2022 revenues of $94.2 million, an increase of 130%
Recently awarded record 300 satellite, $2.4 billion constellation from Rivada Space Networks
Commissioning Irvine expansion in 2023 to bring capacity up to 250 satellites per year
Announcing additional Irvine expansion to be online as soon as 2024

BOCA RATON, Fla., March 21, 2023 – Terran Orbital Corporation (NYSE: LLAP) ("Terran Orbital" or the "Company"), a leading manufacturer of satellite products primarily serving the United States aerospace and defense industry, today provided a business update and presented financial results and operational highlights for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022.

Full Year 2022 Financial and Operational Highlights

Generated a record $94.2 million of revenue in 2022, an increase of 130% year-over-year
Delivered a record 19 satellites, including 10 satellites for the Transport Layer of the Space Development Agency (SDA)
Received $100 million investment in October 2022 from Lockheed Martin and extended Strategic Cooperation Agreement to 2035
Backlog of $170.8 million at year end, an increase of 131% year-over-year, not including the $2.4 billion Rivada order
Full year 2022 net loss of $164.0 million compared to net loss of $139.0 million in 2021

 

2023 Business Highlights to Date

On pace to begin delivery of 42 Transport Layer Tranche 1 satellites to the SDA during 2023
Awarded $2.4 billion contract from Rivada Space Networks for 300 LEO satellites and related services in February 2023
Commissioning previously announced Irvine, CA expansion in 2023 to bring manufacturing capacity up to 250 satellites per year
Announcing additional Irvine expansion to be online as soon as 2024

Marc Bell, Co-Founder, Chairman & CEO, said, “We are thrilled with the continued strong execution of our team. On-time delivery is critical to our customers. We met our commitments and delivered ten satellites on schedule to Lockheed Martin for the Space Development Agency’s Transport Layer Tranche 0 in 2022. We expect to begin delivery of 42 Transport Layer Tranche 1 satellites in 2023. Leveraging

this performance, we are preparing bids for Transport Layer Tranche 2 and other SDA programs including T2DES and Tracking Layer which represent nearly 300 satellites this and next year. On the commercial front, last month we were awarded a $2.4 billion contract to build the constellation of our new partner, Rivada Space Networks.”

Results for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year of 2022

Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $31.9 million, up 197% compared to $10.7 million for the same period in the prior year and $94.2 million for the full year, up 130% over the same prior-year period. The increase in revenue was primarily due to the continued support of the SDA’s Transport Layer, inclusive of the completion and delivery of 10 satellites to Lockheed Martin for the Tranche 0 program. 2022 revenue performance was negatively impacted by an estimated $7.0 million of EAC adjustments on certain firm fixed price programs. EAC adjustments represent net changes during the period in our aggregate program contract values, estimated costs at completion and other program estimates, and include the impact of cost overruns and recognition of loss reserves.

Cost of sales for the quarter was $42.7 million compared to $10.0 million in the same period in the prior year, and $111.5 million for the full year, an increase of $77.6 million over the same prior-year period. The increase in cost of sales was primarily due to increases of $28.6 million and $70.6 million for the quarter and full year, respectively, from higher direct costs incurred in satisfying customer contracts and an increase in share-based compensation expense following the Tailwind Two merger. Cost of sales included an estimated negative impact of $11.3 million due to EAC adjustments on certain programs during 2022.

Gross (loss) profit was $(10.8) million for the fourth quarter, and $(17.3) million for the full year, in 2022, compared to $741 thousand for the fourth quarter, and $7.0 million for the full year in 2021. Excluding share-based compensation and depreciation and amortization included in cost of sales, Adjusted Gross (Loss) Profit(1) was $(7.3) million for the fourth quarter, and $(2.2) million for the full year, in 2022, compared to $1.7 million and $9.5 million in the same periods in 2021. EAC adjustments negatively impacted gross profit and Adjusted Gross Profit by an estimated $18.3 million during 2022.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $27.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $13.1 million for the same period in the prior year, and $111.9 million for the full year of 2022, compared to $43.7 million for 2021. The increase for the quarter was primarily driven by higher share-based compensation expense as a result of the Tailwind Two merger, and overall increases in salaries and wages, sales and marketing and other operating costs, partially offset by a decrease in accounting and legal fees. The increase for the full year was primarily driven by increases in share-based compensation expense, salaries and wages, research and development expenses, technology costs, and insurance and other operating costs, partially offset by a decrease in accounting and legal fees.

During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company abandoned plans to invest in a company-owned constellation of Earth observation satellites. As a result, we recorded a loss on impairment of $22.4 million related to costs previously capitalized as construction-in-process associated with the development and construction of the initial satellites.

Our net loss for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $33.0 million compared to a net loss of $40.3 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in net loss for the quarter was driven by a decrease in the fair values of warrant and derivative liabilities following the Tailwind Two Merger and due to the non-recurring loss on extinguishment of debt recorded in the fourth quarter of 2021. These decreases were partially offset by the items discussed above, as well as a loss on impairment and higher interest expense

recorded in the fourth quarter of 2022. Our net loss for the year was $164.0 million compared to a net loss of $139.0 million in the prior year. In addition to the items discussed above, the increase in net loss was driven by a loss on impairment and higher interest expense recorded in 2022, partially offset by a decrease in loss on extinguishment of debt and a decrease in the fair values of warrant and derivative liabilities in 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $(26.1) million in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to $(11.3) million in the same period for the prior year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter was primarily due to a decrease in Adjusted Gross Profit and an increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses related to salaries and wages, sales and marketing and other operating costs, partially offset by a decrease in accounting and legal fees. Adjusted EBITDA was $(69.5) million for 2022 compared to $(26.1) million in the prior year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA for the year was primarily due to a decrease in Adjusted Gross Profit and an increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses related to salaries and wages, research and development, and other operating costs.

Capital expenditures totaled $22.5 million for the full year 2022.

Backlog

Backlog represents the estimated dollar value of executed contracts, including both funded (firm orders for which funding is authorized and appropriated) and unfunded portions of such contracts, for which work has not been performed.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s backlog totaled approximately $170.8 million, a 131% increase since December 31, 2021, driven primarily by the Company’s major contract awards during the year including an award to build 42 satellites for the SDA Tranche 1 Transport Layer. The Company’s year-end backlog includes over 60 satellites in various stages of completion but does not include the Rivada contract signed in February 2023.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

As of December 31, 2022, Terran Orbital had $93.6 million of cash on hand and approximately $302.2 million in gross debt obligations. The Company’s debt includes $22.5 million in connection with an obligation under one of the PIPE investment subscription agreements, all of which is payable in cash or equity at the Company’s option, subject to certain requirements.

In order to proceed with our strategic business plan, we will likely need to raise additional funds in the future through the issuance of additional debt, equity (including additional equity through our B. Riley committed equity facility or other equity source), or other commercial arrangements, which may not be available to us when needed or on terms that we deem to be favorable.

Subsequent Events

On February 22, 2023, Terran Orbital announced that it was awarded a $2.4 billion contract from Rivada Space Networks to design, build and deploy 300 low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites, with a customer option for an additional 300 satellites. The contract includes the construction of the satellite bus, integration of specialized payloads and development of portions of the ground segment.

Outlook

The Company continues to focus on the successful execution of existing contracts and delivery of satellites on schedule, while also continuing to expand capacity, develop new solutions, and win new

3

 


 

contracts to expand its backlog. The Company expects to begin delivery of 42 satellite buses for the Space Development Agency’s Tranche 1 Transport Layer and anticipates that it will commence development work for the Rivada Space Networks constellation in 2023.

Adjusted Gross Profit

We define Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit or loss adjusted for (i) share-based compensation expense included in cost of sales and (ii) depreciation and amortization included in cost of sales.

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Gross Profit is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about our gross profit adjusted for certain non-cash items. Further, we believe Adjusted Gross Profit provides a meaningful measure of operating profitability because we use it for evaluating our business performance, making budgeting decisions, and comparing our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures.

There are material limitations to using Adjusted Gross Profit. Adjusted Gross Profit does not take into account all items which directly affect our gross profit or loss. These limitations are best addressed by considering the economic effects of the excluded items independently and by considering Adjusted Gross Profit in conjunction with gross profit or loss as calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss adjusted for (i) interest, (ii) taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) share-based compensation expense, (v) loss on extinguishment of debt, (vi) change in fair value of warrant and derivative liabilities, and (vii) other non-recurring and/or non-cash items.

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about our operating profitability adjusted for certain non-cash items, non-routine items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in the future, as well as other items that are not core to our operations. Further, we believe Adjusted EBITDA provides a meaningful measure of operating profitability because we use it for evaluating our business performance, making budgeting decisions, and comparing our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures.

There are material limitations to using Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account certain significant items, including depreciation and amortization, interest, taxes, and other adjustments which directly affect our net income or loss. These limitations are best addressed by considering the economic effects of the excluded items independently and by considering Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with net income or loss as calculated in accordance with GAAP.
