Third Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights
•Revenue of $14.7 million during the third quarter driven by gateway deliveries and U.S. Government milestones
•Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $94.4 million, including $26.7 million of depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense. This represents an increase of $20.4 million as compared to $74.0 million in the second quarter of 2025 due to a $12.2 million increase in engineering services costs, a $5.5 million increase in cost of gateway deliveries, a $2.6 million increase in general and administrative costs, and a $1.0 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense, partially offset by a $0.9 million decrease in research and development costs
•Adjusted operating expenses(1) for the third quarter of 2025 were $67.7 million, an increase of $16.0 million as compared to $51.7 million in the second quarter of 2025 due to a $7.6 million increase in Adjusted engineering services costs(1), a $5.5 million increase in cost of gateway deliveries, and a $3.8 million increase in Adjusted general and administrative costs(1), partially offset by a $0.9 million decrease in research and development costs
•As of September 30, 2025, we had cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of $1.2 billion
•As of September 30, 2025, we had incurred approximately $1.2 billion of gross capitalized property and equipment costs and accumulated depreciation and amortization of $158.0 million. The capitalized costs include costs of satellite materials for BlueBird satellites, advance launch payments, capital advances, Block 1 and BlueWalker 3 satellites, assembly and integration facilities including assembly and test equipment, and ground antennas

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We refer to certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press release, including Adjusted operating expenses, Adjusted engineering services costs and Adjusted general and administrative costs. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful measures across time in evaluating our operating performance as we use these measures to manage the business, including in preparing our annual operating budget and financial projections. These non-GAAP financial measures have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP, and therefore have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, these measures may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies and are presented solely to provide investors with useful information to more fully understand how management assesses performance. These measures are not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for their most directly comparable GAAP measures. Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures and the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables accompanying this press release.

Adjusted operating expenses, Adjusted engineering services costs and Adjusted general and administrative costs are alternative financial measures used by management to evaluate our operating performance as a supplement to our most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure. We define Adjusted operating expense as Total operating expenses adjusted to exclude amounts of stock-based compensation expense and depreciation and amortization expense. We define Adjusted engineering services costs and Adjusted general and administrative costs as engineering services costs and general and administrative costs adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expenses.
We believe Adjusted operating expenses, Adjusted engineering services costs and Adjusted general and administrative costs are useful measures across time in evaluating our operating performance as we use these measures to manage the business, including in preparing our annual operating budget and financial projections. Adjusted operating expenses, Adjusted engineering services costs, and Adjusted general and administrative costs are non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP, and therefore have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, these measures may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies and are presented solely to provide investors with useful information to more fully understand how management assesses performance. These measures are not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for their most directly comparable GAAP measure of Total operating expenses, Engineering services costs and General and administrative costs.

OPERATING AND CAPITAL METRICS $M Non-GAAP. See appendix for a reconciliation. Adjusted operating expenses is equal to total operating expense adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization and stock based-compensation expense.
