**SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this "Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q") contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of, and we intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by, the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. These risks and other factors include, but are not limited to, those listed under "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the "2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K"). In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "might," "objective," "ongoing," "plan," "predict," "project," "potential," "should," "will," "would," or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. In particular, statements about the markets in which we operate, including growth of our various markets, statements about potential new products and product innovation and our expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives, prospects, assumptions, or future events or performance contained in the section 'Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Item 2 Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our market opportunity, addressable market and the potential growth of that market;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our M&A strategy, business plans, inventory building, outcomes, and growth prospects;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Expectations regarding government agencies, programs and actions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the timing consummation and acquisition of All.Space Holdings, inc. ("All.Space");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• benefits expected from the acquisitions of Orbion Space Technologies, Inc. ("Orbion") and All.Space;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• trends in our industry and markets; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the competitive environment in which we operate.

Some of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• disruptions in U.S. government operations and funding and budgetary priorities of the U.S. government;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limitations on investor insight into portions of our business due to our classified contracts with the U.S. government;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our failure to establish and maintain important relationships with government agencies and prime contractors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the potential inability to realize our backlog;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• difficulties or disruptions in consummating future acquisitions and integrating the operations of acquired companies into our business, and in realizing the expected benefits of these transactions, including with respect to Orbion and All.Space;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we may experience cost overruns on our contracts, including before final receipt of a contract, which would require us to absorb the excess costs and potentially reduce our cash flow and profitability;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• concentration of our customers and backlog;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we may fail to implement and maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, and as a result may not be able to accurately determine or disclose our financial results;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our operating results may fluctuate significantly;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• significant competition in the global space and satellite market;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our failure to manage our growth effectively and our ability to achieve and maintain profitability;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• any failure of our spacecraft systems and related software to operate as intended, resulting in warranty claims for product failures, schedule delays or other problems with existing or new products;

**<u>[**Table of Contents**](#ieb4f687ead044f3ea28adec37716f865_7)</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our revenue, results of operations and reputation may be negatively impacted if our products contain defects or fail to operate in the expected manner;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our dependence on contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business and our dependence on major customers and vendors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the scarcity or unavailability of critical components used to manufacture our products or used in our development programs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the market for spacecraft platforms and satellite software is still emerging and shifting, and the market may not achieve the growth potential we expect;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• uncertain global macro-economic and political conditions, including the implementation of tariffs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a failure of our information technology systems, physical or electronic security protections;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• adverse publicity stemming from any incident involving us, our competitors, or our customers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the failure to adequately protect our proprietary intellectual property rights;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the inability to comply with any of our contracts or meet eligibility requirements to obtain certain government contracts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our business is subject to a wide variety of extensive and evolving government laws and regulations and contracting in the defense industry is subject to significant regulation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• we have substantial indebtedness, and we may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service all of such indebtedness; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the other factors set forth under "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of Part I of the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We have based the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q primarily on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects, business strategy, and financial needs. The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors described under "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of Part I of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K and elsewhere in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These risks are not exhaustive. Other sections of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include additional factors that could adversely affect our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We cannot be sure that the results, events, and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur, and actual results, events or circumstances could differ materially from those described in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect events or circumstances after such date or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law.

In addition, statements that "we believe" and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and while we believe that information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, that information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information.

***Common Control Reorganization and Corporate Conversion***

Prior to January 28, 2026, the Company operated as a Delaware limited liability company under the name Yellowstone Midco Holdings II, LLC ("Midco II"). On January 28, 2026, prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement relating to the Company's initial public offering ("IPO"), Midco II converted into a Delaware corporation pursuant to a statutory conversion and changed its name to York Space Systems Inc. (the "Corporate Conversion").

Prior to October 3, 2025, the Company operated through Yellowstone Midco Holdings, LLC ("Midco I"). On October 3, 2025, all of the outstanding equity of Midco I, including both redeemable preferred and common units, was contributed to Midco II (the "Common Control Reorganization") and, as a result, Midco I became a wholly owned subsidiary of Midco II. Immediately prior to the Common Control Reorganization, both Midco I and Midco II were wholly-owned subsidiaries of Yellowstone Ultimate Holdings, LP, ("Holdings"), a limited partnership that was controlled by investment funds managed by AE Industrial Partners, LP ("AE Industrial Partners").

At the time of the Corporate Conversion, all Class P units of Midco II (the "Class P Units") converted into 8,885,674 shares of our common stock which was calculated as an amount of shares equal to (i) the outstanding aggregate total preference amount of such Class P Unit, divided by (ii) the IPO price discounted by 20% and all outstanding common units of Midco II converted into an aggregate of 99,558,713 shares of common stock, including 2,269,473 shares of unrestricted common stock distributed in respect of vested Class B units (the "Incentive Units") in Holdings and 2,147,313 shares of restricted stock distributed in respect of unvested Incentive Units, in each case, in connection with the Incentive Unit Distributions (as defined below).

Immediately following the Corporate Conversion, Holdings distributed all common stock received upon conversion of the common units of Midco II to its limited partners and liquidated (the "Holdings Liquidation"). In connection with that action, vested and unvested Incentive Units (the "Incentive Unit Distributions") were distributed. Certain shares of common stock distributed in respect of unvested Incentive Units are subject to time vesting and the recipients of such shares have entered into restricted stock agreements with us in connection with the receipt of such shares. As a result of the Holdings Liquidation, all partners of Holdings, including investment funds managed by AE Industrial Partners, became direct holders of the Company's common stock.

The Common Control Reorganization is considered a reorganization of entities under common control. Amounts for the period from January 1, 2025 through March 31, 2025 presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes herein represent the historical operations of Midco I. The amounts as of March 31, 2026 and for the period from January 1, 2026 through March 31, 2026 reflect the consolidated operations of the Company.

***Initial Public Offering***

On January 29, 2026, the Company's common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") under the ticker "YSS". In its IPO, the Company sold a total of 18.5 million shares of its common stock at a public offering price of $34.00 per share, for an aggregate offering price of $629.0 million. The Company received net proceeds of $583.4 million, net of $36.2 million of underwriting discounts and commissions and $9.4 million of other offering costs. The proceeds from the IPO will be used for general corporate and working capital purposes.

***Basis of Presentation***

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the Company's accounts and the accounts of the Company's wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), certain information and footnote disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company's 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 19, 2026. The results for the interim periods may not be indicative of results for the full year.

**Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies** 

The Company's significant accounting policies are consistent with those disclosed in Note 2 to the audited financial statements included in the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

***Use of Estimates***

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingencies at the reporting date, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates have been prepared using the most recent and best available information. Although management believes the estimates that have been used are reasonable, actual results could materially differ from the estimates that were used. Adjustments, if any, to the estimates used are made prospectively based upon such periodic evaluation.

***Contract Assets and Liabilities***

Contract assets include unbilled amounts typically resulting from sales under contracts when the percentage-of-completion cost-to-cost method of revenue recognition is utilized and revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer. When costs incurred plus recognized profit (less recognized losses) on a contract exceeds progress billings, the net amount is recorded as a contract asset. Contract assets are classified as current based on the Company's operating cycle and include amounts that may be billed and collected beyond one year due to the long-cycle nature of the Company's contracts.

Contract liabilities include advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized. When progress billings exceed costs incurred plus recognized profit (less recognized losses), the net amount is recorded as a contract liability. Contract liabilities are classified as current based on the Company's contract operating cycle and reported on a contract-by-contract basis, net of revenue recognized, at the end of each reporting period.

***Goodwill***

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment annually at October 1 and whenever events or circumstances make it more likely than not that impairment may have occurred. The Company has determined that its business comprises one reporting unit. The Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The Company considers factors in performing a qualitative assessment including, but not limited to, general macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, company financial performance, changes in strategy, and other relevant entity-specific events. If the Company elects to bypass the qualitative assessment or does not pass the qualitative assessment, a quantitative assessment is performed.

When a quantitative assessment is performed, the Company utilizes a discounted cash flow approach, which incorporates key assumptions such as future growth rates, terminal values, and discount rates. This process compares the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to the reporting unit's carrying value, including goodwill. The Company recognizes a goodwill impairment charge for the amount by which the reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value up to the amount of goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not to be impaired.

***Fair Value Measurements***

The Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Under the fair value standards, fair value is based on the exit price in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The fair value measurement hierarchy is based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect internal market assumptions. The following hierarchy classifies the inputs used to determine fair value into three levels:

• Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

• Level 2 – Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

• Level 3 – Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities.

Valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs are favored. Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest priority level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of an input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. Reclassifications of fair value between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, if applicable, are made at the end of each reporting period. See Note 12 – Fair Value Measurements for further details.

***Revenue Recognition***

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the five-step model under the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers* ("ASC 606") which involves (i) identification of the contract(s), (ii) identification of performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determination of the transaction price, (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the previously identified performance obligations and (v) recognition of revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied.

The Company's revenues are primarily derived from firm-fixed-price ("FFP") contracts with both domestic U.S. Federal Government-controlled agencies as well as commercial customers, and the Company recognizes revenue for these arrangements over time. These contracts generally span several years in duration. Revenue arrangements where revenue is

recognized at a point in time are immaterial as a percentage of total revenues to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract's transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company's contracts with customers generally do not include a right of return relative to delivered products. In certain cases, contracts are modified to account for changes in the contract specifications or requirements. In most instances, contract modifications are accounted for as part of the existing contract as modifications take place when the Company is in process of completing a performance obligation.

The Company's typical contracts include two performance obligations. The first performance obligation consists of the combined design, development, and integration of a specified number of satellites on payloads constituting a fully functional constellation of satellites once successfully launched in space, as well as the design, development, and delivery of the hardware and software components constituting a ground system missions control to strategically operate the satellites to obtain mission critical data. The Company has determined that the various promises constitute a single combined performance obligation because the Company deemed each promise to not be individually distinct within the context of the contract since the Company performs a significant service of integrating the inputs into a combined output for which the customer has contracted: that is, a fully functional constellation of satellites that reports real-time information to the customer for strategic operations of the customer. Further, the Company concluded that the hardware and software developed for the customer and installed at the customer's ground missions control are highly interdependent and highly interrelated with the satellites. The hardware and software serve as an interface to obtain the desired data from the constellation. The software enables the satellites to maneuver in space and communicate with each other and the ground systems in order to perform their intended function.

The second performance obligation consists of operations and maintenance services that operate the ground systems by sending instructions and commands to the satellites, obtaining data from the satellites, as well as maintenance and updates to the software. The Company concluded that these services constitute a series of daily time increments that are satisfied over time.

Customer contracts also typically include customer options to acquire additional operations and maintenance services. The pricing of these options is reflective of the standalone selling price for these services and therefore, does not provide the customer with a material right that would constitute a separate performance obligation. Instead, the options are accounted for only when the customer exercises the option to purchase the additional services.

For some contracts, the Company arranges for launch services from a third-party provider. As the Company does not obtain control of the services before they are provided to the customer, the Company concluded it is acting as an agent when arranging for launch services. Upon reviewing the indicators in ASC 606, the Company does not establish pricing for the services, rather, it is entitled to a fee for its arranging services. The Company also is not primarily responsible for the launch services and does not have inventory risk or procure the services without a customer lined up.

Once the Company identifies the performance obligations, it determines the transaction price, which includes estimating the amount of variable consideration to be included in the transaction price, if any. Typical contracts include variable consideration in the form of contingent milestone payments. The milestones are established at contract inception and outline the specifications and criteria that must be met for the Company to invoice the customer for the corresponding milestone payment. The Company utilizes the most likely approach to estimate variable consideration as most of the milestones have only two possible outcomes. The Company continuously considers the constraint guidance and typically does not constrain variable consideration as it deems it not probable that inclusion of the variable payments in the transaction price would result in a significant revenue reversal of cumulative revenue recognized to date for any single contract. The Company carefully establishes project milestones with consultation of its engineers and experts that have significant experience in achieving such milestones.

The Company allocates the transaction price to its identified performance obligation based upon their stand-alone-selling-price ("SASP"). Because the Company does not have observable SASP, it estimates SASP using a cost-plus-margin approach.

The Company recognizes revenue for its performance obligations over time as the Company's performance creates an asset with no alternative use to the Company and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date (for the design and build of the satellites and ground systems performance obligation) and as the customer benefits as the Company performs (for the operations and maintenance services performance obligation).

For the design and build of the satellites and ground systems performance obligation, the Company recognizes revenue using the percentage-of-completion ("POC") method, based on the proportion of total costs incurred relative to total estimated costs at completion ("EAC"). An EAC includes all direct costs and indirect costs directly attributable to a contract or allocable based on the Company's project cost pooling arrangements. The Company believes that this method represents the most faithful depiction of the Company's performance because it directly measures value transferred to the customer. Contract estimates are based on various assumptions to project the outcome of future events that may span several years. These assumptions include, but are not limited to, the amount of time to complete the contract, including the assessment of the nature and complexity of the work to be performed; the cost and availability of materials; the availability of subcontractor services and materials; and the availability and timing of funding from the customer. The Company bears the risk of changes in estimates to complete on FFP contracts, which may cause profit levels to vary from period to period. For the operations and maintenance services performance obligation, the Company recognizes revenue on a straight-line basis over time.

Contracts are often modified for changes in contract value, specifications or requirements, which may result in scope as well as price changes. Most of the Company's contract modifications are for goods or services that are not distinct in the context of the contract and are therefore accounted for as part of the original performance obligation through a cumulative EAC adjustment.

Accounting for long-term contracts requires significant judgment relative to estimating total contract revenues and costs, in particular, assumptions relative to the amount of time to complete the contract, including the assessment of the nature and complexity of the work to be performed. The Company's estimates are based upon the professional knowledge and experience of its engineers, program managers and other personnel, who review each long-term contract quarterly to assess the contract's schedule, performance, technical matters and estimated cost at completion. If, at the time of the contract award or at any time during the life of a contract it becomes probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognized immediately in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. A cumulative catch-up adjustment is recorded for changes in transaction price or estimate at completion during the period when such revisions occur.

For long-term contracts, the portion of the payments retained by the customer is not considered a significant financing component. At contract inception, the Company also expects that the lag period between the transfer of a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will not constitute a significant financing component. Many of the Company's long-term contracts have milestone payments, which align the payment schedule with the progress towards completion on the performance obligation. On some contracts, the Company may be entitled to receive an advance payment, which is not considered a significant financing component because it is used to facilitate inventory demands at the onset of a contract and to safeguard the Company from the failure of the other party to abide by some or all of their obligations under the contract.

***U.S. Federal Government Contracts***

The Company has engineering and construction contracts with the U.S. Federal Government, which typically provide the customer with the unilateral right to cancel the contract whenever the federal buying agency deems the cancellation is in the public interest. Under a termination for convenience clause, the Company is entitled to recover all costs incurred to the termination date, plus other costs not recovered at termination (such as ongoing costs not able to be discontinued, for

example, rental costs), as well as an allowance for profit or fee. The U.S. Federal Government also typically has the right to the goods produced and in process under the contract at the time of a termination.

***Transaction Costs***

Transaction costs include finder's fees, legal, accounting and other professional costs related to potential and closed acquisition activity, as well as non-recurring costs related to the IPO that are not eligible to be deferred IPO costs. Costs related to the revision or issuance of new debt are recorded as deferred financing costs.

***Acquisitions***

The Company accounts for its acquisitions from the date upon which it obtains control over one or more other businesses (even if less than 100% ownership is acquired), to recognize the fair value of all assets acquired and liabilities assumed and to establish the acquisition date fair value as of the measurement date.

While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions as part of the purchase price allocation process to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the business combination date, the estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the business combination date, the Company records adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. For changes in the valuation of intangible assets between the preliminary and final purchase price allocation, the related amortization is adjusted in the period it occurs. Subsequent to the measurement period, any adjustments to assets acquired or liabilities assumed is included in operating results in the period in which the adjustment is identified. Transaction costs that are incurred in connection with a business combination, other than costs associated with the issuance of debt or equity securities, are expensed as incurred. The Company capitalizes acquisition-related costs and fees associated with asset acquisitions and immediately expenses acquisition-related costs and fees associated with business combinations.

***Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements***

The Company did not adopt any accounting pronouncements during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

The Company considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements or notes thereto.

**Note 3. Revenues** 

The table below presents revenues disaggregated by type of customer for the following periods:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **For the three months ended** | **For the three months ended** |
| | **March 31, 2026** | **March 31, 2025** |
| Government | $114308 | $100889 |
| Commercial and other | 2035 | 5363 |
| **Total revenues** | $**116343** | $**106252** |

---

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, 99% and 97%, respectively, of the Company's revenues were derived in the U.S. market. Approximately 99% and 94% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 respectively, were derived from one customer.

| | **March 31, 2026** | **December 31, 2025** |
| **Contract assets** | $**96573** | $**76809** |
| **Contract liabilities** | $**28565** | $**110275** |

---

The increase in contract assets during the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily driven by revenue recognized for services rendered that had not yet been billed to the customer.

The decrease in contract liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily driven by satisfaction of performance obligations for services previously billed to the customer. Revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2026 that was included in the contract liability balance as of December 31, 2025 was $95.6 million. Revenue recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2025 that was included in the contract liability balance as of December 31, 2024 was $62.1 million.

The Company evaluates the contract value and EAC for performance obligations at least quarterly and more frequently when circumstances significantly change. Due to the nature of the work required to be performed on many of the Company's performance obligations, the estimate of total revenue and cost at completion is complex, subject to many variables and requires significant judgment by management on a contract-by-contract basis. As part of this process, management reviews information including, but not limited to, labor productivity, the nature and technical complexity of the work to be performed, availability and cost volatility of materials, subcontractor and vendor performance, volume assumptions, inflationary trends, and schedule and performance delays. When the Company's estimate of total costs to be incurred to satisfy a performance obligation exceeds the expected revenue, the Company recognizes the loss immediately. When the Company determines that a change in estimate has an impact on the associated profit of a performance obligation, the Company records the cumulative positive or negative adjustment to the statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Changes in estimates and assumptions related to the status of certain long-term contracts may have a material effect on the Company's operating results.

The below table summarizes the (unfavorable) favorable impact of the net EAC adjustments for the following periods:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **For the three months ended** | **For the three months ended** |
| | **March 31, 2026** | **March 31, 2025** |
| Net EAC adjustments, before income taxes | $(754) | $565 |
| Net EAC adjustments, net of income taxes | (753) | 508 |
| Net EAC adjustments, net of income taxes, per basic and diluted share | $(0.01) | $0.01 |

---

The net unfavorable EAC adjustments during the three months ended March 31, 2026 were primarily due to the recognition of contract loss reserves, partially offset by lower-than-anticipated labor, materials and subcontractor costs required to meet customer requirements in the Company's sale of satellites, launch services and ground services. The net favorable EAC adjustments during the three months ended March 31, 2025 were primarily due to the derecognition of loss provision for a terminated contract.

***Remaining Performance Obligations***

As of March 31, 2026, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $642.3 million. The Company expects to recognize over 55% of its remaining performance obligations as revenue within the next 12 months and the balance thereafter.

| | **March 31, 2026** | **December 31, 2025** |
| **Capitalized commissions, net** | $**5107** | $**6661** |

---

Sales commissions earned by the Company's sales force are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract. These costs are capitalized and amortized over the life of the contract consistent with the pattern of transferring the goods to the customer. Amortization of sales commissions is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss and totaled $1.5 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Unpaid sales commissions expected to be paid within the next twelve months are deferred and recorded as deferred commissions, current on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Unpaid sales commissions expected to be paid in greater than a period of twelve months are classified as deferred commissions, less current portion on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

***Loss Contracts***

The Company recognizes a contract loss when the current estimate of the consideration expected to be received is less than the current estimate of total estimated costs to complete the contract. For purposes of determining the existence or amount of a contract loss, the Company considers total contract consideration, including any variable consideration constrained for revenue recognition purposes. The Company may experience favorable or unfavorable changes to contract losses from time to time due to changes in estimated contract costs and modifications that result in changes to contract prices. The Company recorded a loss of $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, within cost of revenues in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. No losses were recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

**Note 4. Acquisition**

***Orbion Space Technology***

On December 11, 2025, the Company made an investment of $5.0 million in the preferred equity of Orbion Space Technology, Inc. ("Orbion"), resulting in a noncontrolling equity interest. Orbion is a Michigan-based manufacturer of flight-proven electric propulsion systems. On March 6, 2026, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Orbion Merger Agreement") with Orbion. Pursuant to the Orbion Merger Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Orbion.

Consideration for this acquisition was $74.9 million, which consisted of approximately $11.2 million in cash and $60.2 million in equity consideration in the form of shares of the Company's common stock. The fair value of preferred equity held by the Company from the initial investment in Orbion was $3.5 million, which was included in the total consideration. The fair value of this investment was determined using a market-based approach, based on the quoted share price of the Company's common stock and the contractual conversion ratio of the preferred equity, and the resulting loss of $1.5 million is included in other (expense) income, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

The Company incurred $2.4 million of acquisition-related expenses, which are recorded in Transaction costs on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. These expenses include legal and advisory fees paid at closing, deal fees, insurance-related costs, and other related expenses.

**(Dollars in thousands, except shares, units, per share and per unit amounts)**

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities acquired were recorded at their estimated fair values. The determination of fair value was based on management's analysis with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation firm. The excess purchase price resulting in goodwill is primarily attributable to Orbion's acquired workforce and expected synergies. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The results of operations from the acquisition of Orbion were included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

The following table summarizes the provisional fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Provisional fair value measurements were made for assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Adjustments to those measurements may be made in subsequent periods, up to one year from the date of acquisition, as the Company continues to evaluate the information necessary to complete the analysis.

| Net identifiable assets acquired | 11710 |
| Goodwill | 63148 |
| **Fair value of net assets acquired** | $**74858** |

---

The acquired intangible assets are expected to have useful lives ranging from 1 to 9 years. The provisional fair values for the Trademark and Technology assets were estimated using the relief-from-royalty method. The provisional fair values for the Backlog and Customer Relationship assets were estimated using the multi-period excess earnings method. These models reflect management's estimates of future cash flows, operating performance, and economic conditions.

***ATLAS Space Operations***

On June 9, 2025, the Company invested in preferred equity of ATLAS Space Operations, Inc. ("ATLAS"), representing an approximate 5% equity interest. ATLAS is a leading provider of Ground Software-as-a-Service (GSaaS) solutions for space-based communication and global connectivity headquartered in Traverse City, MI. Through a series of common control transactions contemplated in the Agreement and Plan of Merger and effected on August 29, 2025, ownership of ATLAS was transferred to the Company.

Consideration for this acquisition was $85.8 million which consisted of $1.5 million in cash (including $1.3 million in seller transaction expenses) and $78.6 million in equity consideration in the form of Holdings common units. The fair value of these units was determined by the Company with the assistance of a third-party valuation. The fair value of preferred equity held by the Company from the initial investment in ATLAS was $5.8 million, which was included in the total consideration.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities acquired were recorded at their estimated fair values.

**Note 7. Financing Arrangements**

***Credit Agreement***

The Company has a credit agreement with various lenders (the "Lenders") and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association ("Wells Fargo"), which was amended on November 21, 2025 (as amended, the "Credit Agreement"). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lenders agreed to extend term loan commitments in an aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million (the "Term Loan Facility") and revolving loan commitments in an aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million (the "Revolving Facility"). Subsequent to March 31, 2026, a maturity extension was granted related to the credit agreement, which is now set to mature on November 14, 2029.

The Term Loan Facility requires principal payments equal to 0.625% of the aggregate principal amount on the last day of each fiscal quarter until December 31, 2026 and at 1.250% of the aggregate principal amount on the last day of each fiscal quarter until September 30, 2028. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a floating rate on the unpaid principal amount thereof equal to (i) initially, (x) 3.00% per annum in the case of Term SOFR Loans and (y) 2.00% per annum in the case of ABR Loans and (ii) on and after the date on which the borrower submits written notice to the administrative agent of its election to cease testing the revenue and liquidity covenants and to begin testing the leverage covenant in lieu thereof, which notice may be submitted at any time (the "Leverage Covenant Toggle Date"), the applicable rate per annum set forth in the pricing grid below under the caption "Term SOFR Margin" or "ABR Margin," as the case may be, based upon the Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) as of the end of the Company's fiscal quarter:

The primary differences between the Company's effective tax rate and the statutory rate are changes in the valuation allowance, differences related to research and development related credits and carryforwards, and stock-based compensation. The increase in the valuation allowance for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily due to increases in deferred tax assets generated from research and development capitalization requirements and research and development credit carryforwards. The Company's effective tax rate continues to differ significantly from the statutory rate due to the full valuation allowance maintained U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets.

***Tax Receivable Agreement***

Prior to the consummation of the IPO, the Company entered into a tax receivable agreement ("TRA") with equity holders of Holdings and holders of Class P Units (such holders and any transferee or successors being the "TRA Holders"). The TRA requires the Company to make payments to the TRA Holders (or their transferees or successors) in an amount equal to 85% of certain tax savings (or expected tax savings) in respect of certain tax attributes of the Company. Such tax benefits consist primarily of net operating loss carryforwards and research and development credit carryforwards. As of March 31, 2026, the realization of those benefits is uncertain, and as such, the Company does not believe payment of TRA benefits is probable. Accordingly, the Company does not anticipate recording the TRA liability until such time as payments become probable. As of March 31, 2026, the Company estimates the TRA attributes were approximately $347.0 million.

In the event of a change in control, material breach or the Company's election to terminate the TRA early, the Company would be required to make an immediate cash payment equal to the anticipated future tax benefits that are the subject of the TRA discounted in accordance with the TRA. The early termination liability is calculated based on a discounted calculation of tax attributes using an interest rate equal to 100 basis points above SOFR. The Company estimates the early termination liability to be approximately $261.0 million as of March 31, 2026.

**Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)**

**(Dollars in thousands, except shares, units, per share and per unit amounts)**

In 2025, Holdings subscribed to an additional 25.0 million redeemable preferred units of Midco I at a price of $1.00 per unit. The redeemable preferred units entitled holders to certain voting rights, preferred yield at the rate of 12.5% per annum and distribution rights.

Prior to the Common Control Reorganization, Holdings owned all of the common units and redeemable preferred units of Midco I authorized and outstanding. As described below, in connection with the Common Control Reorganization, all of the common units and redeemable preferred units were contributed to Midco II in exchange for common units of Midco II, which were converted to shares of the Company in connection with the IPO in January 2026.

***Structure Subsequent to the Common Control Reorganization***

***Common units***

Upon formation on September 4, 2025, Midco II entered into a Limited Liability Company Agreement (the "LLC Agreement"), pursuant to which Midco II issued 100 common units to Holdings for no consideration. From formation until October 3, 2025, Holdings owned 100 common units of Midco II, representing 100% of the common units authorized and outstanding of Midco II. In connection with the Common Control Reorganization on October 3, 2025, all of the outstanding equity of Midco I, including both redeemable preferred and common units, was contributed to Midco II in exchange for 50 million common units of Midco II and, as a result, Midco I became a wholly owned subsidiary of Midco II.

*Class P Units*

In the fourth quarter of 2025, Midco II issued and sold an aggregate of approximately 241.0 million Class P Units to investors, including funds affiliated with AE Industrial Partners. The Class P Units contained redemption features that were not solely within the control of the Company. As a result, the Class P Units were classified as temporary equity.

The Class P Units were automatically convertible (in substance share-settled redemption) upon a Qualified IPO, which requires bifurcation. The Company recorded the Class P Units initially at its issuance price of $241.0 million, net of issuance costs of $5.3 million and net of the initial value of the bifurcated derivative liability of $93.1 million. The Class P Units were subsequently remeasured by accreting the changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance to the earliest date that the instrument would become redeemable (i.e., the fifth anniversary of the issuance date) using the interest method including the accrued and cumulative unpaid dividends. The bifurcated derivative was initially recorded at fair value upon issuance of the Class P Units and subsequently remeasured with changes in fair value through earnings. Refer to Note 12 - Fair Value Measurement for more information on the estimate of the fair value of the derivative liability. All of the Class P Units converted into shares of the Company's common stock and the derivative liability was derecognized in connection with the IPO.

**Note 10. Stock-based Compensation** 

***Omnibus Incentive Plan***

On January 28, 2026, in connection with the IPO, the Company adopted the York Space Systems Inc. 2026 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Omnibus Plan"). Pursuant to the Omnibus Plan, employees, consultants and directors of the Company and its affiliates performing services for us, including our executive officers, will be eligible to receive awards. The Omnibus Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, dividend equivalents, other stock-based awards, other cash-based awards, substitute awards, and performance awards intended to align the interests of participants with those of our stockholders. Initially, the aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant to the Omnibus Plan shall not exceed 12.7 million shares. Beginning in 2026, the number of shares that may be issued pursuant to the Omnibus Plan is subject to an annual increase on January 1 of each calendar year ending and including 2036, equal to the lesser of (a) 5% of the aggregate number of shares outstanding on

December 31 of the immediately preceding calendar year and (b) such smaller number of shares as is determined by our Board of Directors.

***Restricted Stock Awards***

In connection with the IPO, the Company issued shares of common stock in connection with the Incentive Unit Distributions. These shares have time-based vesting conditions. These awards contain service conditions associated with continued employment or service. The terms of the restricted stock provide voting and regular dividend rights to holders of the awards. These shares vest over a one or two year vesting schedule. Unvested shares are forfeited if the employee resigns voluntarily or is terminated for cause. Common shares issued to all non-management entities regardless of go-forward employment or Board involvement vested immediately at the date of the IPO.

---

Compensation expense for time-vesting interests granted is based on the grant date fair value. The Company recognizes compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the service period, which is generally the vesting period of the award. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur. Stock-based compensation expense totaled $83.2 million, in the three months ended March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026, unrecognized compensation cost totaled $64.5 million. The weighted average remaining period over which the unrecognized compensation cost is to be recognized is 1.8 years as of March 31, 2026.

***Restricted Stock Units***

*Restricted Stock Units with Service-Based Vesting*—Under the Omnibus Plan, the Board of Directors has granted restricted stock units ("RSUs") to members of the Board of Directors, executive officers and other key employees. These awards contain service conditions associated with continued employment or service. The terms of the RSUs provide for regular dividend rights to holders of the awards. Upon vesting, the restrictions on the RSUs lapse and shares are issued and considered issued and outstanding for accounting purposes.

In connection with our IPO, the Board granted approximately $21.7 million in RSUs under the Omnibus Plan to certain employees and non-employee directors (collectively, the "IPO Grants"). Each IPO Grant to certain employees will vest in three substantially equal installments on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the applicable vesting commencement date, subject generally to continued employment through the applicable vesting date.

Further, in January 2026 the Board granted 31,764 RSUs to non-employee directors for their annual service as directors. These RSU grants vest over a one year period.

In measuring compensation expense associated with the grant of RSUs, we use the fair value of the award, determined as the closing stock price for our common stock on the date of grant.

Compensation expense is recorded monthly over the vesting period of the awards. The following table summarizes information for the equity awards granted in 2026:

---

Compensation expense for time-vesting interests granted is based on the grant date fair value. The Company recognizes compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the service period, which is generally the vesting period of the award. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur. Stock-based compensation expense totaled $1.5 million, in the three months ended March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026, unrecognized compensation cost totaled $22.1 million. The weighted average remaining period over which the unrecognized compensation cost is to be recognized is 2.8 years as of March 31, 2026.

**Note 11. Net Loss per Share** 

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period.

The conversion of common units into common stock which occurred as part of the Corporate Conversion is considered akin to a split-like situation. For calculation of net loss per share, shares outstanding for all historical periods before our IPO have been retrospectively adjusted to 95,141,928 to reflect the shares of the Company's common stock converted from common units. As discussed in Note 1 - Description of Business and Basis of Presentation, the Corporate Conversion resulted in the issuance of 99,558,713 shares of the Company's common stock. However, this amount includes 2,269,473 shares of unrestricted common stock distributed in respect of vested Incentive Units and 2,147,313 shares of restricted stock distributed in respect of unvested Incentive Units. As the distribution of the Company's common stock in respect of vested and unvested Incentive Units is not considered akin to a split-like situation, these shares were excluded from shares outstanding in the calculation of net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and are only included as outstanding shares prospectively from the vesting date.

Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of fully dilutive common shares outstanding for the period using the treasury-stock method, the if-converted method, or two-class method for participating securities, whichever is more dilutive. The RSAs and RSUs were granted by and settled in the equity of Holdings and therefore are not included in the Company's net loss per share calculations. During the periods presented, the Company did not have any dilutive equity instruments outstanding. As described in Note 10 - Stock-based Compensation, in the first three months of 2026, the Company granted RSAs and RSUs. Both RSAs and RSUs are not participating securities as they are not entitled to receive nonforfeitable dividends before the underlying awards are vested. Further, the RSAs and RSUs are both antidilutive equity instruments that could potentially become dilutive in future periods. As a result, diluted net loss per common share is the same as basic net loss per common share for the periods presented.

**Note 12. Fair Value Measurements**

The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses, are reflected on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at amounts that approximate fair value because of their short-term maturities. The carrying amount of the debt is reflected on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at an amount that approximates fair value as interest incurred is variable based on market rates.

***Derivative Financial Instruments***

The following tables represent the fair value hierarchy for the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of March 31, 2026.

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Description** | **Level 1** | **Level 2** | **Level 3** |
| **Assets** | | | |

| **Total financial assets** | $**—** | $**246** | $**—** |

***Foreign exchange derivative instruments***

The Company economically hedges certain portions of exposure to foreign currency exchange risk by entering into derivative transactions. The derivative instruments are recognized as either prepaid expenses and other current assets or accounts payable and accrued expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at estimated fair value. The Company recognizes amounts subject to master netting arrangements on a net basis in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company did not enter into any derivative arrangements and did not have any recurring fair value measurements as of March 31, 2026.

**(Dollars in thousands, except shares, units, per share and per unit amounts)**

The Company's derivative financial instruments are valued based on an income approach (discounted cash flow) using market observable inputs, including swap curves and both forward and spot exchange rates for currencies.

The aggregate notional value of these contracts was $4.4 million at March 31, 2026 and $8.8 million at December 31, 2025.

Unrealized and realized losses, net, related to derivative instruments were $0.1 million and $0, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Realized losses and unrealized gains are recorded in other (expense) income, net in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Cash flows from the foreign currency forward contracts are included in operating activities.

***Class P Units***

As discussed in Note 9 – Stockholders' Equity/Member's Capital and Temporary Equity, the automatic conversion (in substance share-settled redemption) feature of the Class P Units upon a Qualified IPO requires bifurcation between (i) the host contract, and (ii) the bifurcated derivative liability. The proceeds from issuance were first allocated to the fair value of the bifurcated derivative with the residual being allocated to the host contract. The bifurcated derivative is remeasured to fair value at each reporting period with changes in fair value recorded in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

Upon IPO and conversion of the Class P Units into shares of the Company's common stock, the derivative liability for the Class P Units was remeasured to fair value of $98.1 million. The Company recognized a loss of $4.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 in other (expense) income, net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The Company estimated the fair value of the derivative liability using the "with" or "without" approach. As the fair value of the derivative liability was determined using a valuation model that incorporates significant unobservable inputs, the derivative liability is classified as a Level 3 fair value measurement. The Level 3 fair value inputs used in determining the fair value of the derivative liability associated with the Class P Units include time to Qualified IPO or unit redemption, probability of each event, risk-free rate, and discount rate.

**Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies**

The Company may be involved in legal proceedings from time to time. The Company has assessed its positions and is of the opinion that, currently, the ultimate resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows or the financial position of the Company.

**Note 14. Related Parties**

The related party transactions for the Company are as follows:

***AEI Consulting Agreement***

AE Industrial Partners, the Company's largest stockholder, provided $0.5 million and $0.3 million of consulting services to the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. An amended consulting agreement was executed in connection with the IPO which provides for the Company to pay a consulting fee of $2.4 million per year. The amended agreement expires the earlier of January 2028 or when AE Industrial Partners beneficially owns less than 10% of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock. These consulting fees are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The Company contracted with a vendor in which one of the Company's employees is a shareholder to provide software engineering services to the Company. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 the Company paid approximately $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, to this vendor for these services.

The Company contracted with a design studio owned by one of the Company's officers and his spouse and managed by the spouse to design, furnish and build out the offices and manufacturing areas for its new facilities. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company paid approximately $0.3 million and $0, respectively, for these services.

**Note 15. Segment Reporting** 

The Company operates in one operating segment and one reportable segment, and as a result, manages its operations and allocates resources as a single operating segment. space infrastructure, which comprises all of its operations. The Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") is its Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance, and allocating resources. The CODM uses consolidated net income or loss that is also reported on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) to evaluate the return on assets and determine strategic initiatives related to product development and new technologies to meet the growing demands of the Company's unique customers. Consolidated net income (loss) is used to monitor budget versus actual results.

The measure of segment assets is reported on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as total assets. There are no other significant segment assets that would require disclosure or are regularly provided to the CODM. The Company has no intra-segment sales or transfers as it operates in one operating segment and one reportable segment. Information related to the geographical distribution of the Company's revenues is disclosed in Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, $44.5 million and $40.4 million, respectively of the Company's fixed assets, net are located in the United States. There were no other material tangible long-lived assets located outside of the U.S., individually or in the aggregate.

Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by these forward-looking statements.*

**Business Overview**

On January 28, 2026, the Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with respect to our IPO was declared effective and on January 29, 2026, our stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") under the ticker "YSS". Refer to Note 1 – Description of Business and Basis of Presentation of the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

York is a leading, U.S.-based, national defense and commercial prime providing a comprehensive suite of mission-critical solutions for national security, government and commercial customers. York is one of the only space and defense primes with proprietary hardware and software capabilities designed to address customers' complex mission requirements across the critical elements of the entire space ecosystem throughout the mission lifecycle. York is a partner of choice for our customers, with differentiated performance versus traditional primes based on price, speed to deployment, and sophistication of capabilities. For contracts which we have been awarded, our price per satellite has been approximately half the price per satellite of our competitors. We have also been the first to deliver and launch satellites for multiple PWSA programs. York is the first and only company to demonstrate Link-16 connectivity from space, highlighting our unique and innovative capabilities.

York is purpose built to address evolving national security space challenges and to adapt to the ongoing shift in the U.S. government's mission needs and procurement processes, where economics, agility, rapid capabilities, and heritage drive customer decision making. We deliver mission-critical solutions in a zero-tolerance for error environment where systems must work, and we believe we are positioned to capture outsized growth in our core markets. York provides customers a vertically integrated, full technology stack of solutions including design, production, integration, and operation of spacecraft with turnkey offerings to manage spacecraft and constellations throughout their entire mission lifecycle. York has significant space heritage, having 74 missions with flight heritage, created 17 products with flight heritage, and logged over four million on-orbit hours. York's position as a prime enables us to monetize the entire space vertical from launch to mission operations, from spacecraft to payloads, and from edge computing to data transfer.

York was founded to create an innovative space technology mission prime, with a goal of meeting the evolving national security threats from space by providing mission-critical spacecraft at scale, faster, and at lower cost. We provide our customers with the ability to quickly and effectively field responsive space-based technologies. We have a demonstrated ability to win contracts in space and are a trusted partner to U.S. national security, intelligence and defense agencies, such as the U.S. Air Force and classified customers, as well as commercial and civil customers. Our proprietary hardware, software and mission operations solutions are designed to address the United States' national security priorities: missile defense (crucial to the Golden Dome), counter-space capabilities, space domain awareness, space data network and space sensing and targeting capabilities.

Our capabilities include a differentiated suite of spacecraft solutions with proven, common technologies. We offer the S-CLASS, LX-CLASS, and M-CLASS spacecraft, which are high-quality, low-cost satellite platforms that are proven and scalable to a wide array of space market needs. Our spacecraft are supported by proprietary satellite software enabling versatile integration of a variety of payloads for customers and supply chain commonalities across platforms.

Our model allows us to capture recurring revenue driven by ongoing satellite-based software and services as well as hardware replacement cycles. Once spacecraft are fielded, we provide continuous operational support, downlink antenna usage, and proprietary software solutions, including on-spacecraft upgrades during the full orbital lifespan. Contracts have

------

historically provided a fixed cost for software maintenance with upgrade options available for purchase. The expected replacement cycle for the current portfolio of space vehicles is approximately five to six years. Our full lifecycle solution and ongoing operational support distinguishes us from our competitors, positioning us to act as prime for the replacement and potential expansion of competitors' aging constellations. As a result, we expect our recurring revenue to increase as the installed base of spacecraft in orbit grows, creating a highly visible revenue model, accelerating growth and increasing margins.

We have significant production capability and believe we will be able to meet demand to manufacture and test over 1,000 satellites annually, supporting our position as a leader in rapid, high volume spacecraft delivery. This investment in infrastructure is meant to create a durable competitive advantage, enabling us to capitalize on the rapidly growing space economy with the ability to reliably deliver spacecraft faster and more affordably than traditional primes.

We view backlog as a key measure of our business growth. Backlog represents our estimate of the revenue we expect to realize in future periods as a result of performing work on contracts that have been awarded to us (net of any revenue already recognized as of the backlog date). We include the aggregate expected revenue of awarded contracts in our backlog upon the execution of a legally binding agreement, even though our contracts include certain termination rights exercisable by our customers with advance notice. We exclude unexercised contract options from our backlog. Contract liabilities recognized on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets consists of payments and billings that we have received in excess of revenue that we have recognized. Because cash receipts from these contracts have not been recognized into revenue, they are included in our backlog calculation.

We monitor our backlog because we believe it is a forward-looking indicator of potential sales which can be helpful to investors in evaluating the performance of our business and identifying trends over time. Although backlog reflects business associated with contracts that are considered to be firm, terminations, amendments, or contract cancellations may occur, which could result in a reduction in our total backlog and potential future revenue that is never recognized.

| *($ in thousands)* | **As of March 31, 2026** | **As of December 31, 2025** |
| **Backlog** | $642298 | $542557 |

---

The increase in backlog as of March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025 was primarily due to the execution of a new commercial contract during the period partially offset by revenue recognized during the period. We expect to recognize over 55% of our backlog as of March 31, 2026 as revenue within the next 12 months, and the balance thereafter.

**Recent Developments**

***Initial Public Offering***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On January 29, 2026, the Company's common stock began trading on the NYSE under the ticker "YSS". In its IPO, the Company sold a total of 18.5 million shares of its common stock at a public offering price of $34.00 per share, for an aggregate offering price of $629 million. The Company received net proceeds of $583.4 million, net of $36.2 million of underwriting discounts and commissions and $9.4 million of offering costs. The proceeds from the IPO will be used for general corporate and working capital purposes.

***Corporate Conversion and Common Control Reorganization***

Prior to January 28, 2026, we operated as a Delaware limited liability company under the name Yellowstone Midco Holdings II, LLC ("Midco II"). On January 28, 2026, prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, Midco II converted into a Delaware corporation pursuant to a statutory conversion and changed its name to York Space Systems Inc.

At the time of the Corporate Conversion, all units of Midco II were converted into shares of the Company's common stock, and immediately following the Corporate Conversion, Holdings distributed all shares of the Company's common stock received upon conversion of the common units of Midco II to its limited partners and liquidated. As a result

------

of the Holdings Liquidation, all partners of Holdings, including investment funds managed by AE Industrial Partners, LP became direct holders of the Company's common stock.

***New Commercial Contract***

In February 2026, we executed a contract with a commercial customer for M-CLASS satellites from which we expect to generate revenue of approximately $187 million over the course of the contract. We have begun work with the customer refining payload selection and we expect the work to continue in subsequent years.

***Orbion Space Technology Acquisition***

On March 6, 2026, we entered into the Orbion Merger Agreement. Pursuant to the Orbion Merger Agreement, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Orbion in exchange for consideration consisting of cash totaling $11.2 million and 2,812,141 shares of the Company's common stock. Pursuant to the Orbion Merger Agreement, the number of shares delivered to the sellers was calculated using an agreed upon price of $34.00 per share. Orbion is a Michigan-based manufacturer of flight-proven electric propulsion systems. Refer to Note 4 – Acquisitions of the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

***All.Space Holdings, Inc. Acquisition***

On April 29, 2026, we entered into the "All.Space Merger Agreement" with All.Space. Pursuant to the All.Space Merger Agreement, the Company agreed to undertake a series of contributions, after which the Company will acquire the outstanding equity interests of All.Space which will become an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The purchase price to be paid by the Company is $355 million, which will be comprised of approximately $155 million in cash and the issuance of up to 5.9 million shares. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of all required regulatory approvals and clearances (or, where applicable, the expiration or termination of waiting periods), including those relating to antitrust, foreign investment and telecommunications matters. We expect the transaction to close in the second half of 2026.

**Trends and Key Factors Affecting Performance**

***Macroeconomic Pressures***

In recent years, geopolitical instability, including wars, such as the war in Iran, and conflicts, as well as impacts from other global events, have resulted in opportunities for companies in the space and defense technology market. However, certain disruptions to the global economy, including market disruptions, monetary, and fiscal policy uncertainty, supply chain challenges and high interest rates have contributed to an inflationary environment that has adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, the price and availability of certain products and services necessary for our operations, which in turn may adversely impact our business and operating results. In addition, the global trade environment is uncertain and rapidly evolving. Tariffs imposed by the U.S. presidential administration or retaliatory tariffs announced by other countries have resulted in trade wars and can lead to market disruptions and supply chain interruptions for equipment. The impact of tariffs on our business and results of operations will depend on their timing, duration, and magnitude.

***Ability to Continue to Innovate and Expand our Product and Service Offerings***

To continue gaining market share and attracting customers, we plan to continue investing in our infrastructure to expand our production capabilities, including our satellite-based services, and to create a durable competitive advantage with the goal of enabling us to capitalize on the rapidly growing space economy. Our growth opportunity is dependent on our continued ability to expand our addressable market, win space data network, space-based sensing and targeting, as well as Golden Dome missions, and to develop our portfolio of products and services related to our offerings. We intend to expand our operations and offerings significantly, but any difficulties in achieving or effectively managing our growth could have a negative effect on our operating results.

***Acquisitions***

We consider strategic acquisitions of businesses and other investments to expand our software and services footprint, deepen vertical integration, and accelerate entry into adjacent mission areas, with the goal of expanding our current

------

portfolio and accessing new customers and technologies. We target companies that not only enhance our technical capabilities but also embed us more deeply into our customers' mission workflows. By integrating strategic acquisitions with our strong internal execution, we aim to build a broader product and service offering with a goal of enhancing our growth and market share. We also may explore the divestiture of businesses that no longer meet our needs or strategy or that could perform better outside of our organization. These strategic transactions may be costly, time consuming and challenging to consummate and/or integrate with our existing businesses, and may result in fluctuations in our operating results and financial position across periods that may be unrelated to our underlying performance. Any particular acquisition or other investment we make could prove less successful than anticipated and have a negative effect on our business.

**Results of Operations**

We manage and assess our business based on performance on contracts, which are typically long-term and involve the design, development and manufacturing of our core offerings and related activities with varying delivery schedules. Therefore, the results of operations for a particular year, or period over period comparison may not be indicative of future operating results. Substantially all of our contracts are accounted for under the percentage-of-completion cost-to-cost method. As a result, revenues on contracts are recorded over time based on progress towards completion for a particular contract, including the estimate of the profit to be earned at completion.

*Components of Results of Operations*

*Revenue—*substantially all of our revenue is derived from long-term FFP production contracts for the design of small satellites, launch services, and ground services with both U.S. federal government-controlled agencies as well as domestic commercial customers. Our contracts generally span several years in duration. We account for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. We recognize revenue upon the satisfaction of the performance obligations identified in the contract, which is achieved through the transfer of control of the promised good or service to the customer over time.

For FFP contracts satisfied over time, progress is measured using a POC cost-to-cost method, which accurately reflects the transfer of control to the customer. This method assesses the extent of progress based on the ratio of costs incurred to date against the total estimated costs to complete the performance obligation. Estimating total costs to completion requires us to make informed estimates regarding subcontractor performance, material costs and availability, labor costs and productivity and overhead expenses. Frequently, the period of performance of a contract extends over a long period and, as such, revenue recognition and our profitability from a particular contract may be affected to the extent that EACs are revised, delivery schedules are delayed, performance-based milestones are not achieved, or progress under a contract is otherwise impeded. Accordingly, our revenues and operating profit from period to period can fluctuate significantly depending on when contractual obligations are achieved.

In the event that the estimated total costs to be incurred on a contract surpass the anticipated total revenue, we recognize a provision for the entire loss on the contract in the period when the loss is identified. For further discussion of the critical judgments and estimates related to our revenue recognition policies, see the section entitled "Critical Accounting Estimates."

*Cost of Revenues*—primarily consists of direct material and labor costs, which include salaries, bonuses, and benefits directly attributable to fulfilling our obligations under customer contracts, and related overhead. Overhead costs primarily include allocable amounts of rent, software subscriptions, depreciation and amortization expense on assets used directly in revenue producing activities, indirect materials, and production and test administrative expenses. We expect our cost of revenues to increase in absolute dollars in future periods as we enter into more contracts and make strategic acquisitions and investments.

*Selling, General and Administrative Expenses*—primarily consists of employee-related expenses for personnel in our executive, finance and accounting, facilities, legal, human resources, and information technology and security functions, as well as other administrative employees. In addition, selling, general and administrative expenses include fees for legal, accounting, tax and audit services, software subscriptions, facilities, sales commissions, other corporate costs, depreciation and amortization, marketing and advertising and transaction costs. We expect to incur additional selling, general, and administrative expenses as a result of operating as a public company, including expenses related to compliance with public

------

company reporting obligations and additional compensation expense, and increased costs for insurance, investor relations, and professional services.

*Research and Development*—primarily consists of employee-related labor costs, software subscriptions, and supplies and materials for new product development. Research and Development ("R&D") is expensed as incurred. We expect to continue investing in R&D and, accordingly, expect our R&D expenses to increase and vary as we continue developing and improving our products' capabilities.

*Income Tax Benefit*—includes the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement carrying amount and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, along with net operating loss carryforwards using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

***Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025***

The following table sets forth a summary of our unaudited condensed consolidated results of operations for the periods indicated, and the changes between periods.

***Net EAC Adjustments***

We record changes in costs estimated at completion (net EAC adjustments) using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting. Net EAC adjustments have in the past had, and may in the future have, a significant effect on reported revenues and gross profit. The table below presents the aggregate amounts for the following periods:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **For the three months ended March 31,** | **For the three months ended March 31,** |
| *($ in thousands)* | **2026** | **2025** |
| Gross favorable EAC adjustments | $4845 | $— |
| Gross unfavorable EAC adjustments | (2522) | (572) |
| EAC adjustments, attributable to loss contracts | (3077) | 1137 |
| **Net EAC adjustments, before income taxes** | $**(754)** | $**565** |
| **Net EAC adjustments, net of income taxes** | $**(753)** | $**508** |

---

Two contracts accounted for 48% and 37%, respectively, of the gross favorable EAC adjustment for the three months ended March 31, 2026 which were primarily due to lower-than-anticipated labor, materials, and subcontractor costs required to meet customer requirements in our sale of satellites. In contrast, two contracts accounted for 64% and 36% respectively, of the gross unfavorable EAC adjustment for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The adjustments were primarily due to additional unplanned labor, materials and subcontractor costs. One contract accounted for 100% of the gross unfavorable EAC adjustment for the period ended March 31, 2025, due to a change in the estimated total transaction price resulting from a contract modification. Refer to Note 3 - Revenues of the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information related to our net EAC adjustments.

***Revenue***

Revenue increased by $10.1 million, or 9%, to $116.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $106.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The period-over-period increase in revenue was primarily related to increases in progress towards completion and achievement of certain milestones during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, partially offset by a decrease in progress as a significant project nears completion during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The period-over-period increase in revenue was largely driven by existing contracts, with 85% of the revenue growth related to contracts that were already in place at March 31, 2025. Refer to Note 3 - Revenues of the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information related to our net EAC adjustments.

***Cost of Revenues***

Cost of revenues increased by $12.5 million, or 15%, to $94.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $81.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The period-over-period increase in cost of revenues was primarily driven by increases of $5.3 million in direct materials and subcontractor costs related to larger contracts that have increased progress towards the design and build of satellites during the period. Other increases were attributed to depreciation and amortization of $3.2 million, direct labor costs of $2.4 million, and other overhead costs of $1.6 million as well as the impact of the acquisition of ATLAS.

***Gross Profit***

Gross profit decreased by $2.4 million, or 10%, to $22.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $24.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. As a percentage of revenues, gross margin was 19% and 23% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The period-over-period decrease in gross margin as a percentage of revenues was primarily attributed to net unfavorable EAC adjustments during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to a net favorable EAC adjustment for the same period in 2025.

***Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A") Expenses***

SG&A expenses increased by $9.9 million, or 37%, to $36.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $26.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The period-over-period increase in SG&A

------

expenses was primarily attributed to increases in compensation and other employee-related costs, as well as professional fees for audit, tax and legal services as well as the impact of the acquisition of ATLAS.

***Stock-based Compensation Expense***

Stock-based compensation expense was $84.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. See Note 10 – Stock-based Compensation of the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information related to our stock compensation.

***Research and Development Expenses***

R&D increased by $0.9 million, or 20%, to $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The period-over-period increase in R&D costs was primarily driven by increases in compensation and other employee-related costs.

***Transaction Costs***

Transactions costs were $5.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Transaction costs relate to the Company's acquisition activity and one-time IPO offering costs.

***Interest Expense***

Interest expense decreased by $4.2 million, or 59%, to $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The period-over-period decrease is attributable to a decline in the floating interest rate tied to Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the same period in 2025, combined with a lower fixed-rate component under the Term Loan Facility during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the Original Term Loan Facility for the same period in 2025.

***Interest Income***

Interest income increased by $4.1 million, or 754%, to $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The period-over-period increase in interest income was primarily driven by higher cash and cash equivalent balances, as well as higher market interest rates that increased yields on those balances.

***Other (Expense) Income, net***

Other (expense) income, net decreased by $6.3 million to $6.2 million of other (expense) for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $0.1 million of other income for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This period-over-period decrease was driven by a decrease in unrealized loss on foreign exchange derivative instruments as well as a loss from our investment in Orbion.

***Income Tax Benefit***

Income tax benefit decreased by $1.2 million to $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in the income tax benefit is primarily due to the valuation allowance of U.S. Federal and U.S. State deferred tax assets.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures** 

We believe that in addition to our results determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), our non-GAAP financial measures, contribution margin, contribution margin %, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to management, investors, and analysts in assessing our financial performance and results of operations across reporting periods by excluding items we do not believe are indicative of our

------

core operating performance. In addition to our GAAP measures, we use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans, and make strategic decisions, including those relating to operating expenses and the allocation of internal resources, including budgeting for infrastructure.

***Contribution Margin***

We refer to revenue less direct material costs of revenue as "contribution margin" and contribution margin divided by revenue as "contribution margin %". Contribution margin and contribution margin % are each non-GAAP financial measures. The closest comparable GAAP financial measures to contribution margin and contribution margin % are gross profit and gross profit margin %, respectively. We believe contribution margin and contribution margin % are useful measures of the variable costs that we incur in order to provide services to our customers. These non-GAAP financial measures are used to supplement the financial information presented on a GAAP basis and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the relevant GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with information presented on a GAAP basis. Our presentation of contribution margin and contribution margin % should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by variable costs.

The table below presents contribution margin and contribution margin %, respectively, for the following periods:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **For the three months ended March 31,** | **For the three months ended March 31,** |
| *($ in thousands, except percentages)* | **2026** | **2025** |
| Revenue | $116343 | $106252 |
| Direct material costs | 76277 | 70949 |
| Contribution margin (non-GAAP) | $40066 | $35303 |
| Contribution margin % (non-GAAP) | 34% | 33% |

---

Contribution margin increased by $4.8 million to $40.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $35.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The period-over-period increase in non-GAAP contribution margin was primarily attributed to increased volume of production on certain contracts with more favorable contribution margins. This increase was partially offset by net unfavorable EAC adjustments for loss contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to net favorable EAC adjustments for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The table below presents a reconciliation of contribution margin, which is a non-GAAP measure of our financial performance, to Gross profit, which is the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP for the periods indicated:

| Contribution margin (non-GAAP) | $40066 | $35303 |
| Contribution margin % (non-GAAP) | 34% | 33% |

---

***EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA***

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP. Net loss is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP financial measures are used to supplement the financial information presented on a GAAP basis and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the relevant GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with information presented on a GAAP basis.

------

Our presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

We define EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense, interest income, income tax benefit, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted for changes in the fair value of derivatives, transaction costs, gains or losses on foreign exchange, and other non-recurring items.

The table below presents a reconciliation from net loss to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods indicated:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **For the three months ended March 31,** | **For the three months ended March 31,** |
| *($ in thousands)* | **2026** | **2025** |
| Net loss | $(114842) | $(11729) |
| Interest expense | 2899 | 7059 |
| Interest income | (4620) | (541) |
| Income tax benefit | (110) | (1306) |
| Depreciation and amortization | 16103 | 12036 |
| EBITDA (non-GAAP) | $(100570) | $5519 |
| Changes in the fair value of derivatives | 4830 | (142) |
| Stock-based compensation expense | 84696 |  |
| Transaction costs<sup>(1)</sup> | 5925 | 31 |
| Other<sup>(2)</sup> | 1481 | 46 |
| Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) | $(3638) | $5454 |

---

(1)Represents costs for legal, advisory fees and other costs incurred in connection with the Company's acquisition activity and one-time IPO costs.

(2)Other includes loss on initial Orbion investment, net gain on foreign exchange and one-time non-cash expense.

***Limitations on the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures***

There are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures because non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures provided by other companies.

Non-GAAP financial measures are limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact on our reported financial results. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which items are adjusted to calculate our non-GAAP financial measures. We compensate for these limitations by analyzing current and future results on a GAAP basis as well as a non-GAAP basis and also by providing GAAP measures in our public disclosures. Some of these limitations are:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, contribution margin and contribution margin percentage do not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• contribution margin and contribution margin percentage do not reflect fixed costs that are directly or indirectly related to revenue generated from our customers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, contribution margin and contribution margin percentage do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, contribution margin and contribution margin percentage do not reflect income tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us.

Non-GAAP financial performance measures are used to supplement the financial information presented on a GAAP basis. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the relevant GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with information presented on a GAAP basis. Because not all companies use

------

identical calculations, our presentation of non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

We measure liquidity in terms of our ability to fund the cash requirements of our business operations, including working capital needs, capital expenditures, contractual obligations, debt service, acquisitions, and other commitments with cash flows from operations and other sources of funding. Our principal sources of liquidity to date have included amounts raised through issuances of equity capital and borrowings under our financing agreements.

On January 29, 2026, the Company completed its IPO of 18.5 million shares of its common stock at a public offering price of $34 per share. The Company received net proceeds of $583.4 million, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and offering costs. The proceeds from the IPO will be used for general corporate and working capital purposes.

Our primary requirements for liquidity and capital on a short- and long-term basis are for our material cash requirements, including working capital needs, satisfaction of our indebtedness and contractual commitments, investment in expanding our breadth and footprint through acquisitions as well as investment in facilities, equipment, technologies, and research and development for our growth initiatives and general corporate needs.

Our ability to fund our cash needs is dependent upon the successful execution of our business strategy and future operating results. Our future operating results are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, including, among others, general economic conditions, including as a result of heightened inflation, fluctuating interest rates and supply chain pressures, competitive dynamics in our target markets as well as legislative and regulatory factors that may be outside of our control. As part of our business and debt management strategy, we continuously evaluate opportunities to further strengthen our financial and liquidity position, including by issuing additional equity or debt securities, refinancing or otherwise restructuring our existing credit facilities, or entering into new financing arrangements. There can be no assurance that any of these actions will be sufficient to allow us to adequately service our debt obligations, meet our debt covenants, or that such actions will not result in an adverse impact on our business.

As of March 31, 2026, our cash and cash equivalents were $655.7 million, our financial debt was $149.1 million, and our $150.0 million Revolving Credit Facility was undrawn. We have a limited history of operations and have incurred negative cash flows from operating activities and losses from operations in the past as reflected in the accumulated deficit of $383.9 million as of March 31, 2026. We believe that our cash will be adequate to meet our liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months. Our future long-term capital requirements will depend on several factors, including our ability to generate positive cash flow from operations. We may raise additional capital, whether in the public or private markets, and are currently examining different alternatives. If financing is not available, or if the terms of financing are less desirable than we expect, we may be forced to decrease our level of investment in service development or scale back our operations, which could have a material adverse impact on our business and financial prospects, seek protection under insolvency laws, or cease our operations altogether.

***Indebtedness***

On November 14, 2025, we entered into the Credit Agreement among Yellowstone Interco Holdings, LLC ("Interco Holdings"), Yellowstone Borrower, LLC (the "IPO Borrower"), the Company, only after the Company became a party thereto as a borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement following our IPO, the Lenders and Issuing Banks party thereto from time to time and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the administrative agent, the collateral agent and the swingline lender. The Credit Agreement provides for the Term Loan Facility in the aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million and the Revolving Facility in the aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million. Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility and Revolving Facility bear interest at a floating rate on the unpaid principal amount thereof equal to (i) initially, (x) 3.00% per annum in the case of Term SOFR and (y) 2.00% per annum in the case of ABR Loans and (ii) on and after the Leverage Covenant Toggle Date, the applicable rate per annum set forth in the pricing grid below under the caption "Term SOFR Margin" or "ABR Margin," as the case may be, based upon the Total Net Leverage Ratio as of the end of the Company's fiscal quarter:

------

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Level** | **Total Net Leverage Ratio** | **Term SOFR Margin** | **ABR Margin** |
| I | If the Total Net Leverage Ratio is greater than 3.00:1.00 | 2.75% | 1.75% |
| II | If the Total Net Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 3.00:1.00 and greater than 2.00:1.00 | 2.50% | 1.50% |
| III | If the Total Net Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 2.00:1.00 | 2.25% | 1.25% |

---

The Term Loan Facility and Revolving Facility mature on November 14, 2029. The Credit Agreement contains customary mandatory prepayments, including with respect to asset sale proceeds, proceeds of certain recovery events, and proceeds from certain incurrences of indebtedness. The principal amount owed under the Credit Agreement shall be due and payable on the maturity date. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants and negative covenants. The Credit Agreement contains (i) a minimum revenue covenant, in effect from March 31, 2026 to (but not including) the first business day following the occurrence of a Leverage Covenant Toggle Date, that requires us to maintain a minimum amount of revenue set forth below as of the last day of each such fiscal quarter and measured on a trailing twelve month basis:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Date** | **Minimum Revenue** |
| March 31, 2026 | $245591268 |
| June 30, 2026 | $264387082 |
| September 30, 2026 | $319190794 |
| December 31, 2026 | $372510143 |

---

(ii) a minimum liquidity covenant, in effect from March 31, 2026 to (but not including) the first business day following the occurrence of a Leverage Covenant Toggle Date, that requires us not to permit Liquidity (defined as unrestricted cash together with amounts available for borrowing under the Revolving Facility), as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, to be less than (x) initially, $105,000,000 or (y) upon and after the repayment of the Term Loan Facility in full, 35.0% of the outstanding revolving commitment as of such date, and (iii) a maximum consolidated first lien net leverage ratio covenant, in effect commencing upon the occurrence of a Leverage Covenant Toggle Date, that requires us to maintain a consolidated total net leverage ratio of less than (x) 4.50 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2026, June 30, 2026, September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2026, (y) 4.25 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2027, June 30, 2027, September 30, 2027 and December 31, 2027 and (z) 4.00 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2028, June 30, 2028 and September 30, 2028. The Credit Agreement also includes customary equity cure provisions that permit us to cure defaults in respect of either of the foregoing financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with all financial debt covenants as of March 31, 2026.

The obligations under the Credit Agreement (collectively, the "Credit Agreement Obligations") are guaranteed by the Company's existing and future direct and indirect material wholly owned subsidiaries subject to customary exceptions (in such capacity, the "Credit Agreement Guarantors"). The Credit Agreement Obligations are secured by first priority liens on substantially all assets, subject to customary exceptions, of the Company and the Credit Agreement Guarantors.

***Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements***

We do not engage in any off-balance sheet activities or have any arrangements or relationships with unconsolidated entities, such as variable interest, special purpose, and structured finance entities.

------

***Contractual Obligations***

*Lease Commitments*

We lease buildings that are used in production and for administrative activities. All of our leases are classified as operating leases with various expiration dates through 2036. Our total remaining fixed lease payment obligations as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are $44.8 million and $38.8 million, respectively, with $7.1 million due in less than one year from March 31, 2026.

*Tax Receivable Agreement*

Prior to the consummation of the IPO, the Company entered into the TRA with the TRA Holders. The TRA requires the Company to make payments to the TRA Holders in an amount equal to 85% of certain tax savings (or expected tax savings) in respect of certain tax attributes of the Company. At the date of the IPO and as of March 31, 2026, the realization of those benefits is uncertain, and as such, the Company does not believe payment of TRA benefits is probable. Accordingly, the Company does not anticipate recording the TRA liability until such time as payments become probable. As of March 31, 2026, the Company estimates the TRA attributes were approximately $346 million. See Note 8 - Accounting for Income Taxes of the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed financial statements in Part I in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information related to the TRA.

***Cash Flows***

The table below summarizes certain information from the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **For the three months ended March 31,** | **For the three months ended March 31,** |
| *($ in thousands)* | **2026** | **2025** |
| Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of the year | $162573 | $104656 |
| Operating activities: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net loss | (114842) | (11729) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Reconciling adjustments to net loss | 110324 | 13485 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Changes in working capital | (79937) | (81252) |
| Net cash (used in) operating activities | (84455) | (79496) |
| Net cash (used in) investing activities | (11076) | (3673) |
| Net cash provided by financing activities | 588703 |  |
| Net increase/(decrease) in cash and cash equivalents | 493172 | (83169) |
| Effect of foreign currency rate changes on cash and cash equivalents | (52) | 65 |
| Cash and cash equivalents at end of period | $655693 | $21552 |

---

*Net Cash (Used In)/Provided by Operating Activities* 

Net cash used in operating activities increased by $5.0 million, or 6%, to $84.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $79.5 million of cash used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Changes in working capital declined by $1.3 million, or 2%, primarily attributable to the timing of cash receipts and cash payments for the period. This is particularly driven by offsetting cash flows from changes in contract assets and contract liabilities, as well as cash outflows for inventory that were offset by aggregate changes in other working capital balances. We actively manage our contract assets and contract liabilities, along with the related billing and collection efforts.

The net increase in non-cash adjustments between the three months ended March 31, 2026 and the three months ended March 31, 2025, was primarily driven by a $84.7 million increase in stock-based compensation expense, a $5.9 million increase in other non-cash expenses, and a $4.1 million increase in amortization and depreciation.

------

*Net Cash (Used In) Investing Activities* 

Net cash used in investing activities increased by $7.4 million, or 202%, to $11.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to cash used to fund our acquisition of Orbion of $10.8 million, our $3.2 million equity investment. This increase is partially offset by cash proceeds from settlement of notes receivable of $5.0 million.

*Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities* 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $588.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to proceeds from issuance of the Company's common stock in connection with the IPO, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering costs, of $589.6 million. This is partially offset by the repayment of principal on the Term Loan Facility of $0.9 million.

**Critical Accounting Estimates** 

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires our management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that impact the reported amount of net sales and expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We consider an accounting judgment, estimate, or assumption to be critical when the estimate or assumption is complex in nature or requires a high degree of judgment and the use of different judgments, estimates, and assumptions could have a material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We periodically review our estimates and make adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial condition or results of operations will be affected.

***Revenue Recognition***

Our revenues are primarily derived from long-term FFP construction contracts with both domestic U.S. federal government-controlled agencies as well as commercial customers that generally span several years in duration. For FFP contracts, we recognize revenue over time (versus point in time recognition) using the POC method, as our performance creates an asset with no alternative use to us and we have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

Under the POC method, revenue is recognized based on the proportion of total costs incurred relative to total EAC. EAC includes all direct costs and indirect costs directly attributable to a contract or allocable based on our project cost pooling arrangements. We believe that this method represents the most faithful depiction of our performance because it directly measures value transferred to the customer. Estimates regarding our cost associated with the design, manufacture and delivery of products and services are used in determining the EAC. Contract estimates are based on various assumptions to project the outcome of future events that may span several years. These assumptions include, but are not limited to, the amount of time to complete the contract, including the assessment of the nature and complexity of the work to be performed, availability and cost of materials, components and subcontractor services, the availability and timing of funding from the customer, and the risk and impact of delayed performance and the level of indirect cost allocations. We bear the risk of changes in estimates to complete on a fixed-price contract, which may cause profit levels to vary from period to period.

Accounting for long-term contracts requires significant judgment relative to estimating total contract revenues and costs, in particular, assumptions relative to the amount of time to complete the contract, including the assessment of the nature and complexity of the work to be performed. Our estimates are based upon the professional knowledge and experience of our engineers, program managers and other personnel, who review each long-term contract monthly to assess the contract's schedule, performance, technical matters and estimated cost at completion.

If, at the time of contract award or at any time during the life of a contract it becomes probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognized immediately in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. We evaluate the contract value and cost estimates at completion for performance obligations no less frequently than quarterly, and more frequently when circumstances significantly change. Changes in contract estimates occur for a variety of reasons including, but not limited to, changes in contract scope, labor productivity, the nature and technical complexity of the work to be performed, availability and cost volatility of materials, subcontractor

------

and vendor performance, volume assumptions, inflationary trends, and schedule and performance delays. We utilize information available to us at the time when making changes in contract EACs and apply consistent judgment across the full portfolio of programs.

Management's estimates of total costs to be incurred are highly subjective and depend on past experience and operations. Given our limited history of operations, our rapid development and commercialization of new products, as well as our continued focus on improving and refining our manufacturing processes, these estimates are inherently subject to a high degree of estimation uncertainty and may fluctuate significantly from period to period.

***Goodwill***

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually at October 1 and whenever events or circumstances make it more likely than not that impairment may have occurred. We have determined that our business comprises one reporting unit. We have the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount. We consider factors in performing a qualitative assessment including, but not limited to, general macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, company financial performance, changes in strategy, and other relevant entity-specific events. If we elect to bypass the qualitative assessment or do not pass the qualitative assessment, a quantitative assessment is performed.

When a quantitative assessment is performed, we utilize a discounted cash flow approach, which incorporates assumptions regarding future growth rates, terminal values, and discount rates. This process compares the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to the reporting unit's carrying value, including goodwill. We recognize a goodwill impairment charge for the amount by which the reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value up to the amount of goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not to be impaired.

**Recently Issued Accounting Standards**

Newly adopted accounting standards are described in Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

**Emerging Growth Company Accounting Election**

Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can choose not to take advantage of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies, and any such election to not take advantage of the extended transition period is irrevocable. We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, and have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and has different application dates for public or private companies, we, as an emerging growth company, may adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies are required to adopt the new or revised standard. We are expected to remain an emerging growth company at least through the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2026, and are expected to continue to take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition period. This may make it difficult or impossible to compare our financial results with the financial results of another public company that is either not an emerging growth company or is an emerging growth company that has chosen not to take advantage of the extended transition period exemptions for emerging growth companies because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

**Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk**

We are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business, which primarily relate to interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange risk, and inflation. A description of our market risk exposures can be found under Part II, Item 7A "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

------

**Item 4. Controls and Procedures**

**Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of March 31, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below.

**Previously Identified Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

As previously disclosed in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, our management previously identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting relating to identifying the correct measure of progress related to our over-time revenue recognition.

To remediate the foregoing material weakness, we have performed additional accounting analysis and other procedures, including consulting with third-party subject matter experts, to ensure the proper accounting, financial disclosures and internal controls for the material weakness. In addition, we hired a Chief Accounting Officer and will continue to utilize third-party subject matter experts to enhance our internal control processes.

We are in the process of remediating, but have not yet remediated, the material weakness related to identifying the correct measure of progress related to our over-time revenue recognition because the remedial measures implemented with respect thereto have not been in place for a sustained period of time to allow management to test the design and operational effectiveness of the new controls.

Until a sustained period of time has passed to allow management to test the design and operational effectiveness of the new controls, we will not be able to conclude whether the steps we are taking will remediate the remaining material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.

**Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

Except for the remediation efforts relating to the material weakness described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

------

**Part II**

**Item 3. Legal Proceedings**

The Company is involved in legal proceedings from time to time. The Company has assessed its positions and is of the opinion that, currently, the ultimate resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows or the financial position of the Company.

**Item 1A. Risk Factors** 

A description of the risk factors impacting the Company can be found in Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that the Company currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition or future results.

**Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds**

On January 28, 2026, prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement on Form S-1 relating to the Company's initial public offering, Yellowstone Midco Holdings II, LLC ("Midco II") converted into a Delaware corporation pursuant to a statutory conversion and changed its name to York Space Systems Inc. (the "Corporate Conversion"). At the time of the Corporate Conversion, all units of Midco II were converted into shares of the Company's common stock. To the extent the issuance of such shares could constitute a sale of securities, such issuance was not registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

In addition, during the quarter ended March 31, 2026, the Company issued 2,812,141 shares of common stock in connection with its acquisition of Orbion Space Technology, Inc. The information required by this Item with respect to such issuance was previously reported on the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 10, 2026.

**Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities**

None.

**Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures**

Not Applicable.

**Item 5. Other Information**

None.

**Item 6. Exhibits**

The documents listed below are incorporated by reference or are filed with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in each case as indicated therein (numbered in accordance with Item 601 of Regulation S-K).

## Exhibit 10.7

**YORK SPACE SYSTEMS INC.<br>NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION POLICY**

This Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy (this "<u>Policy</u>") of York Space Systems Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "<u>Company</u>"), as adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "<u>Board</u>") and effective as of the date of adoption, (the "<u>Effective Date</u>"), sets forth the compensation payable to each member of the Board who is not an employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (each, a "<u>Non-Employee Director</u>") as consideration solely for service on the Board. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Policy will prohibit the Company from compensating any Non-Employee Director for services provided to the Company outside of such Non-Employee Director's service on the Board. This Policy shall become effective on the Effective Date and shall remain in effect until it is revised or rescinded by the Board in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.**<u>General</u>**. This Policy shall be followed in connection with all compensation paid by the Company to Non-Employee Directors. Any member of the Board who is also an employee of the Company shall not be entitled to cash, equity or any other compensation pursuant to this Policy. The terms and conditions of this Policy shall supersede any prior cash and/or equity compensation arrangements for service as a member of the Board between the Company and any of its Non-Employee Directors and between any subsidiary of the Company and any of its non-employee directors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.**<u>Cash Compensation</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)*Annual Retainer.* (i) Each Non-Employee Director serving as a member of the Board shall receive an annual cash retainer of $70,000.00 for service on the Board, and (ii) the non-executive chair, if any, shall receive an additional annual cash retainer of $25,000.00 ((i) and (ii), as applicable, the "<u>Annual Retainer</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)*Committee Chair Compensation.* A Non-Employee Director shall receive the following additional annual retainers for serving as a committee chair (the "<u>Committee Chair Compensation</u>"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)The chair of the Audit Committee shall receive an additional annual retainer of $20,000.00 for such service.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)The chair of the Compensation Committee shall receive an additional annual retainer of $17,500.00 for such service.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)The chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee shall receive an additional annual retainer of $15,000.00 for such service.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)*Payment Schedule and Prorated Compensation for the Annual Retainers and Committee Chair Compensation*.

------

(collectively, "<u>Cash Compensation</u>") for each Non-Employee Director shall be paid by the Company in quarterly installments in arrears within 60 days following the completion of each quarter. Such amounts shall be paid in the calendar quarter immediately following the quarter to which such amount relates. If a Non-Employee Director does not serve as a Non-Employee Director (or in the applicable positions described in <u>Section 2(b)</u>) for an entire calendar quarter, such Non-Employee Director shall receive a prorated portion of the Cash Compensation otherwise payable to such Non-Employee Director for such calendar quarter pursuant to <u>Sections 2(a)</u> and <u>2(b)</u>, with such prorated portion determined by multiplying such otherwise payable Cash Compensation by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during which the Non-Employee Director serves as a Non-Employee Director (or in the applicable positions described in <u>Section 2(b)</u>) during the applicable calendar quarter and the denominator of which is the number of days in the applicable calendar quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.**<u>Equity Compensation</u>**. Non-Employee Directors shall be granted the Equity Award described below, subject to the Board's approval. The Equity Award described below shall be granted under and shall be subject to the terms and provisions of the York Space Systems Inc. 2026 Omnibus Incentive Plan or any other applicable Company equity incentive plan then-maintained by the Company (such plan, as may be amended from time to time, the "<u>Equity Plan</u>") and shall be granted subject to award agreements in substantially the forms approved by the Board. All applicable terms of the Equity Plan apply to this Policy as if fully set forth herein, and all equity grants hereunder are subject in all respects to the terms of the Equity Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)*Annual Award*. Each Non-Employee Director who (i) serves on the Board as of the date of any annual meeting of the Company's stockholders (an "<u>Annual Meeting</u>") and (ii) will continue to serve as a Non-Employee Director immediately following such Annual Meeting shall be granted, subject to the Board's approval, on the date of such Annual Meeting, an award of Restricted Stock Units (the "<u>Equity Award</u>") pursuant to the Equity Plan with a grant date fair market value equal to approximately $180,000.00; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that to compensate Non-Employee Directors for the period between January 30, 2027 and the Company's first Annual Meeting the Board may award a prorated Equity Award (the "<u>Prorated Equity Award</u>") with a grant date fair market value equal to the Equity Award value pursuant to Section 3 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months anticipated to elapse from the date of grant through the first Annual Meeting and the denominator of which is 12 to any Non-Employee Director who (i) is serving on the Board as of January 30, 2027 and (ii) will continue to serve as a Non-Employee Director immediately following January 30, 2027. Such Prorated Equity Award will vest on the first Annual Meeting, subject to such Non-Employee Director's continuous service on the Board through such date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)*New Directors.* In the event a new Non-Employee Director is elected or appointed to the Board, at any time other than on the date of an Annual Meeting, such Non-Employee Director will be eligible to receive a one-time prorated Equity Award pursuant to the Equity Plan, with such prorated portion determined by multiplying the Equity Award value

LGL-2526-00-100-01&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**YORK SPACE SYSTEMS INC.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;** 2 of #NUM_PAGES#<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**CONFIDENTIAL**

------

pursuant to <u>Section 3(a)</u> by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during which the Non-Employee Director serves as a Non-Employee Director during the period prior to the following Annual Meeting and the denominator of which is 365. 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)*Additional Terms of Awards*. Each Equity Award will be granted under and subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Plan and the applicable form of award agreement (if any) previously approved by the Board. The Board may change or otherwise revise the terms of awards to be granted in the future pursuant to this Policy in its discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.**<u>Expense Reimbursement</u>**. All Non-Employee Directors will be eligible to be reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred to attend meetings of the Board or committees thereof or otherwise performing duties consistent with service on the Board in accordance with the Company's expense reimbursement policy, subject to the provision by the applicable Non-Employee Director of documentation evidencing such expenses in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.**<u>Section 409A</u>**. In no event will cash compensation or expense reimbursement payments under this Policy be paid after the later of (a) the 15th day of the third month following the end of the Company's taxable year in which the compensation is earned or expenses are incurred, as applicable, or (b) the 15th day of the third month following the end of the calendar year in which the compensation is earned or expenses are incurred, as applicable, in compliance with the "short-term deferral" exception under Section 409A. It is the intent of this Policy that this Policy and all payments hereunder be exempt from or otherwise comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the compensation to be provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities or ambiguous terms herein will be interpreted to be so exempt or comply. In no event will the Company have any responsibility, liability, or obligation to reimburse, indemnify, or hold harmless a Non-Employee Director (or any other person) for any taxes imposed, or other costs incurred, as a result of Section 409A.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.**<u>Insider Trading</u>**. All directors are subject to the Company's Insider Trading Policy.

**<u>EXHIBIT A</u>**

**NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT**

This Non-Employee Director Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (together with the Grant Notice to which this Agreement is attached this "<u>Agreement</u>") is made as of the Date of Grant set forth in the Grant Notice to which this Agreement is attached by and between York Space Systems Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "<u>Company</u>"), and the Participant identified in the attached Non-Employee Director Restricted Stock Unit Grant Notice (the "<u>Participant</u>"). Capitalized terms used but not specifically defined herein shall have the meanings specified in the Plan or the Grant Notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.<u>Award</u>**. Effective as of the Date of Grant set forth in the Grant Notice (the "<u>Date of Grant</u>"), the Company hereby grants to the Participant the number of RSUs set forth in the Grant Notice on the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference as a part of this Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall control. To the extent vested, each RSU represents the right to receive one Share, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the Plan. Unless and until the RSUs have become vested in the manner set forth in <u>Section 2</u>, the Participant will have no right to receive any Shares or other payments in respect of the RSUs. Prior to settlement of this Award, the RSUs and this Award represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable only from the general assets of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.<u>Vesting of RSUs</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Except as otherwise set forth in this <u>Section 2,</u> the RSUs shall vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Grant Notice. Upon the Participant's Termination of Service prior to the vesting of all of the RSUs any unvested RSUs (and all rights arising from such RSUs and from being a holder thereof) will terminate automatically without any further action by the Company and will be forfeited without further notice and at no cost to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Notwithstanding anything in the Grant Notice, this Agreement or the Plan to the contrary, the RSUs shall immediately become fully vested upon (i) the Participant's Termination of Service due to the Participant's death or Disability or (ii) a Change in Control, in each case, so long as the Participant continuously provides services to the Company as a member of the Board from the Date of Grant through such event.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.<u>Dividend Equivalent Rights</u>**. In the event that the Company declares and pays a regular cash dividend in respect of its outstanding Shares (which, for clarity, does not include any extraordinary cash dividend), and, on the record date for such dividend, the Participant holds RSUs granted pursuant to this Agreement that have not been settled, the Company shall record in a bookkeeping account an amount equal to the cash dividends the Participant would have received if the Participant was the holder of record, as of such record date, of a number of Shares equal to the number of RSUs held by the Participant that have not been settled as of such record date (the "<u>Dividend Equivalent Rights</u>"). The Dividend Equivalent Rights will be subject to the same terms and conditions, including with respect to vesting, forfeiture and transferability, as the underlying RSUs. All amounts, if any, payable in respect of the Dividend Equivalent Rights will be paid to the Participant in cash (or, at the discretion of the Company, in Shares) on or following, but no later than 60 days after, the date the underlying RSU vests. For purposes of

LGL-2528-00-100-01&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**YORK SPACE SYSTEMS INC.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;** 1 of 6<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**CONFIDENTIAL**

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

clarity, if any of the RSUs are forfeited by the Participant pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, then the Participant shall also forfeit the Dividend Equivalent Rights, if any, accrued with respect to such forfeited RSUs. No interest will accrue on the Dividend Equivalent Rights between the declaration and payment of the applicable dividends and the settlement of the Dividend Equivalent Rights.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.<u>Settlement of RSUs</u>**. As soon as administratively practicable following the vesting of RSUs pursuant to <u>Section 2</u>, but in no event later than 60 days after the Vesting Date, the Company shall deliver to the Participant a number of Shares equal to the number of RSUs subject to this Award. All Shares issued hereunder shall be delivered either by delivering one or more certificates for such Shares to the Participant or by entering such Shares in book-entry form, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. The value of Shares shall not bear any interest owing to the passage of time. Neither this <u>Section 4</u> nor any action taken pursuant to or in accordance with this Agreement shall be construed to create a trust or a funded or secured obligation of any kind.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.<u>Tax Withholding</u>**. To the extent that the receipt, vesting or settlement of this Award results in compensation income or wages (including via Dividend Equivalent Rights) to the Participant for federal, state, local and/or foreign tax purposes, the Company shall have the authority to deduct or withhold, or require the Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy all applicable federal, state, local and foreign taxes (including the employee portion of any Federal Insurance Contributions Act obligation) required by Applicable Law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising in connection with this Award. In furtherance of the forgoing, the Participant may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment of any income tax, social insurance contribution or other applicable taxes that are required to be withheld in respect of this Award, which arrangements include (if and to the extent permitted by the Company) the delivery of cash or cash equivalents, Shares (including previously owned Shares (which are not subject to any pledge or other security interest), net settlement, a broker-assisted sale, or other cashless withholding or reduction of the amount of shares otherwise issuable or delivered pursuant to this Award), other property, or any other legal consideration the Committee deems appropriate. If such tax obligations are satisfied through net settlement or the surrender of previously owned Shares, the maximum number of Shares that may be so withheld (or surrendered) shall be the number of Shares that have an aggregate Fair Market Value on the date of withholding or surrender equal to the aggregate amount of such tax liabilities determined based on the greatest withholding rates for federal, state, local and/or foreign tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that may be utilized without creating adverse accounting treatment for the Company with respect to this Award, as determined by the Committee. Any fraction of a Share required to satisfy such tax obligations shall be disregarded and the amount due shall be paid instead in cash to the Participant. The Participant acknowledges that there may be adverse tax consequences upon the receipt, vesting or settlement of this Award or disposition of the underlying Shares and that the Participant has been advised, and hereby is advised, to consult a tax advisor. The Participant represents that the Participant is in no manner relying on the Board, the Committee, the Company or an Affiliate or any of their respective managers, directors, officers, employees or authorized representatives (including attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers, lenders, prospective lenders and financial representatives) for tax advice or an assessment of such tax consequences.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.<u>Non-Transferability</u>**. During the lifetime of the Participant, the RSUs may not be sold, pledged, assigned or transferred in any manner other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, unless and until the Shares underlying the RSUs have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such Shares have lapsed. Neither the RSUs nor any interest or right therein shall be liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of the Participant or the Participant's successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation,

LGL-2528-00-100-01&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**YORK SPACE SYSTEMS INC.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;** 2 of 6<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**CONFIDENTIAL**

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

anticipation, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other means, whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy), and any attempted disposition thereof shall be null and void and of no effect, except to the extent that such disposition is permitted by the preceding sentence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**7.<u>Compliance with Applicable Law</u>**. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the issuance of Shares hereunder will be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of Applicable Law. No Shares will be issued hereunder if such issuance would constitute a violation of any Applicable Law. In addition, Shares will not be issued hereunder unless (a) a registration statement under the Securities Act is in effect at the time of such issuance with respect to the Shares to be issued or (b) in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the Shares to be issued are permitted to be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company's legal counsel to be necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder will relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such Shares as to which such requisite authority has not been obtained. As a condition to any issuance of Shares hereunder, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any requirements that may be necessary or appropriate to evidence compliance with any Applicable Law and to make any representation or warranty with respect to such compliance as may be requested by the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.<u>Rights as a Stockholder</u>**. The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Shares that may become deliverable hereunder unless and until the Participant has become the holder of record of such Shares, and no adjustments shall be made for dividends in cash or other property, distributions or other rights in respect of any such Shares, except as otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**9.<u>Execution of Receipts and Releases</u>**. Any issuance or transfer of Shares or other property to the Participant or the Participant's legal representative, heir, legatee or distributee, in accordance with this Agreement shall be in full satisfaction of all claims of such Person hereunder. As a condition precedent to such payment or issuance, the Company may require the Participant or the Participant's legal representative, heir, legatee or distributee to execute (and not revoke within any time provided to do so) a release and receipt therefor in such form as it shall determine appropriate; *provided*, that any review period under such release will not modify the date of settlement with respect to vested RSUs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.<u>No Right to Continued Service or Awards</u>**. Nothing in the adoption of the Plan, nor the award of the RSUs thereunder pursuant to the Grant Notice and this Agreement, shall confer upon the Participant the right to a continued service relationship with, the Company or any Affiliate, or any other entity, or affect in any way the right of the Company or any such Affiliate, or any other entity to terminate such other service relationship at any time. The grant of the RSUs is a one-time benefit that was made at the sole discretion of the Company and does not create any contractual or other right to receive a grant of Awards or benefits in the future in lieu of Awards in the future. Any future Awards will be granted at the sole discretion of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**11.<u>Notices</u>**. All notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered to the parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified by like notice):
