SIDUS SPACE REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2026 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Strengthens Balance Sheet, Completes Launch Qualification Milestone, and Advances Transition to Commercialization
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla., Aug. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Sidus Space, Inc. (NASDAQ: SIDU), (the “Company” or “Sidus”), an innovative space and defense technology company, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, and provided a business update highlighting a strengthened capital position, completion of a key launch qualification milestone, and continued advancement of its proprietary technology portfolio.
The Company will host a conference call and webcast today, Friday, August 14, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
“The second quarter materially strengthened our foundation,” said Carol Craig, Founder, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Sidus Space. “We raised capital on terms that provide the runway to execute without compromise, and we advanced our LizzieSat offerings with the addition of Fortis VPX Maxima, our proprietary digital mission computing platform. Its multi-domain, software-defined architecture gives customers a single computing backbone that carries across space, air, land, and sea. Additionally, we believe inclusion in the Russell 2000, Russell 3000, and Russell Microcap Indexes will broaden our institutional visibility. Our focus for the balance of the year is converting this technical and financial foundation into recurring commercial and government revenue.”
