AI Brief
Q2 FY26 earnings call · Aug 6, 2026
Q2 FY26
TL;DR. BlackSky reported Q2 2026 total revenue up 50% YoY to $33.3M driven by record Gen-3 space-based intelligence services, with international revenue up 200% YoY and Adjusted EBITDA of $4.7M. The company reaffirmed its full-year 2026 outlook and raised $150M via ATM to bolster liquidity to $244M.
Bullish
- + Total revenue grew 50% YoY to $33.3M driven by record Gen-3 space-based intelligence & AI services revenue of $25M
- + International revenue grew 200% YoY from a diversified customer base, with pilots converting to seven-figure contracts
- + Adjusted EBITDA improved to $4.7M (14.2% margin) from a loss in the prior year quarter, driven by high-margin space-based intelligence growth
- + Awarded an eight-figure NRO AROS contract, expanding backlog and pipeline momentum
- + Liquidity strengthened to $244M in cash/equivalents after raising $150M via ATM at the quarter
Bearish
- − Net loss of $20.8M persists, though narrower YoY due primarily to non-cash derivative swings
- − FY27 NRO-related funding visibility remains uncertain, creating a forward revenue risk
