Toronto, Ontario (August 7, 2026) - MDA Space Ltd. (TSX: MDA) (NYSE:MDA), a trusted mission partner to the rapidly expanding global space industry, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.
“With our continued focus on disciplined execution, the MDA Space team delivered another quarter of strong, profitable year-over-year growth in Q2 as we continue to advance our long-term growth strategy.
Robust order momentum drove backlog higher than the preceding quarter. Contract wins supporting programs with the Canadian Space Agency and Japan Ministry of Defense, as well as more recently the Canadian Armed Forces and European Space Agency, demonstrate how MDA Space is positioned to benefit from the growing demand for sovereign and defence space-based capabilities around the world.
We announced nine early customer contracts for MDA CHORUSTM, along with 32 letters of interest from customers across five regions and we inaugurated our new high-volume satellite manufacturing facility in Montreal, one of the largest in its satellite class.
The agreements to acquire Blue Canyon Technologies and CLS further expand our global reach and significantly increase our total addressable market. These two established businesses meet our strategic and financial criteria as profitable, cash-generating businesses that are highly complementary to MDA Space, and further position us to expand our existing $40 billion pipeline.
With these additions, we are building a stronger, more diversified and global MDA Space to maximize our market opportunities. We remain confident in our ability to execute on our growth plans and continue to deliver value for shareholders."
Mike Greenley, CEO of MDA Space
Q2 2026 HIGHLIGHTS
| • | Backlog of $4.0 billion at quarter-end provides revenue visibility for 2026 and beyond and compares to $4.6 billion as of Q2 2025. This is an increase of $310 million compared to Q1 2026 driven by strong bookings in the quarter that exceeded conversion of backlog into revenue. |
| • | Revenues of $498.6 million in Q2 2026 were up 33.6% year-over-year driven by higher volumes across all business areas in the quarter. |
| • | Adjusted EBITDA of $96.3 million in Q2 2026 increased 26.2% year-over-year driven by higher volumes of work. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 19.3% in Q2 2026 is consistent with the Company’s full year margin guidance of 18%-20%. |
| • | Net income of $27.9 million in Q2 2026 was up 2.6% year-over-year. Diluted earnings per share was $0.20 in Q2 2026, a decrease of 9.5% year-over-year driven primarily by the increase in the average number of common shares outstanding following the Company’s initial public offering on the New York Stock Exchange in March 2026. |
1As defined in the “Non-IFRS Financial Measures” section
| • | Adjusted net income in Q2 2026 was $51.8 million increasing 12.9% year-over-year driven by the higher gross profit, partially offset by investments in SG&A and R&D. Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.36 in Q2 2026 decreased 1.5% year-over-year as the higher adjusted net income was offset by higher average shares outstanding largely due to the abovementioned IPO in the US. |
| • | Operating cash flow of $(93.4) million in Q2 2026 compared with $52.8 million in Q2 2025. The year- over-year decrease in operating cash flow was primarily due to normal program working capital fluctuations on major contracts. |
| • | Free cash flow of $(150.2) million in Q2 2026 compared to $16.2 million in Q2 2025. The year-over- year decrease was driven by reduced operating cash flow as a result of the aforementioned lower working capital contributions as well as higher capital expenditures. |
| • | Net cash position of $152.8 million at the end of Q2 2026 compares to a net debt position of $120.0 million as of December 31, 2025. The improved net cash position was largely driven by net proceeds received through the initial public offering in the United States, which was completed in March 2026. |
2026 FINANCIAL OUTLOOK
As a trusted mission partner and leading global space technology provider, we are leveraging our capabilities and expertise to execute on targeted growth strategies across our end markets and business areas. Our strategic initiatives, which span across our three businesses, include investing in next generation space technology and services, expanding our presence in attractive markets and geographies, scaling and expanding operations, skills, and talent to meet current and future market demand, leveraging strategic mergers, acquisitions and partnerships to complement organic growth, and continuing to position ourselves as Canada’s national defence and space champion and a trusted supplier to partners and allies globally. We continue to make good progress against our long-term strategic plan.
MDA Space is well positioned to capitalize on strong customer demand and robust market activity given our diverse and proven technology offerings. Our growth pipeline is significant and underpinned by existing and new programs and our book of business is healthy.
Our fiscal 2026 outlook has been updated and now consists of the following:
| • | Narrowing Revenue to $1.8 - $1.9 billion, compared to $1.7 - $1.9 billion previously, representing year-over-year growth of approximately 13% at the mid-point of guidance and reflecting a solid H1 for MDA Space |
| • | Narrowing Adjusted EBITDA to $330 - $370 million, compared to $320 - $370 million previously, representing year-over-year growth of approximately 8% at the mid-point of guidance |
| • | Adjusted EBITDA margin is reaffirmed at 18% - 20% |
| • | Capital expenditures are reaffirmed at $225 - $275 million to support another year of investments related to the production expansion at our Montreal facility and investments in chip development |
| • | Free cash flow is reaffirmed to be neutral to negative driven by normal program working capital fluctuations |

Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit reflects our revenues less cost of revenues. Q2 2026 gross profit of $125.9 million represents a 31.1 million (or 32.8%) increase over Q2 2025 driven by higher volumes of work performed across all business areas.

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, gross profit of $241.1 million represents a $66.6 million (or 38.2%) increase over 2025 levels driven by higher volumes of work across all business areas. Gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was 25.0% and compares to a gross margin of 24.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2026 was $96.3 million compared with $76.3 million for the second quarter of 2025, representing an increase of $20.0 million (or 26.2%) year-over-year driven by higher work volumes as we continue to convert our backlog.

Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $186.9 million compared with $144.9 million for the same period in 2025, representing an increase of $42.0 million (or 29.0%) year-over-year driven by higher work volumes as we continue to convert our backlog.

Adjusted Net Income
Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2026 was $51.8 million compared with $45.9 million for the second quarter of 2025, representing an increase of $5.9 million (or 12.9%) year-over-year primarily driven by higher gross profit partially offset by investments in SG&A and R&D.
Adjusted net income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $102.5 million compared with $84.4 million for the same period in 2025, representing a increase of $18.1 million (or 21.4%) year-over-year largely due to higher gross profit partially offset by investments in SG&A and R&D.
Backlog
Backlog is comprised of our remaining performance obligations which represents the transaction price of firm orders less inception to date revenue recognized and excludes unexercised contract options and indefinite delivery or indefinite quantity contracts. Backlog as at June 30, 2026 was $4,003.0 million, a decrease of $564.9 million from the backlog at June 30, 2025. The decrease was driven by continued conversion of our backlog into revenue, partially offset by net bookings. Our net bookings in Q2 2026 includes the impact from a reduction in scope of work related to the River-class Destroyer (CSC) program. The following table shows the build up of backlog for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared with the same period in 2025.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES
This press release refers to certain non-IFRS measures. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IFRS), do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, the measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. We use non- IFRS measures, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings per Share, Order Bookings, Net Debt (Cash) and Free Cash Flow to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures.
We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before: i) depreciation and amortization expenses, ii) provision for (recovery of) income taxes, and iii) finance costs. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adding to and deducting from EBITDA, as applicable, certain expenses, costs, charges or benefits incurred which in management’s view are either not indicative of underlying business performance or impact the ability to assess the operating performance of our business, including i) unrealized foreign exchange gain or loss, ii) unrealized gain or loss on financial instruments, iii) share-based compensation expenses, iv) share of profit or loss of equity-accounted investees, and v) other items that may arise from time to time. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. Adjusted Net Income is calculated by adding to and deducting from net income, as applicable, certain expenses, costs, charges or benefits incurred which in management’s view are either not indicative of underlying business performance or impact the ability to assess the operating performance of our business, including i) amortization of intangible assets related to business combinations, ii) unrealized foreign exchange gain or loss, iii) unrealized gain or loss on financial instruments, iv) share-based compensation expenses, v) share of profit or loss of equity-accounted investees, and vi) other items that may arise from time to time. Adjusted Earnings per Share represents Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Order Bookings is the dollar sum of contract values of firm customer contracts. Order Bookings is indicative of firm future revenues; however, it does not provide a guarantee of future net income and provides no information about the timing of future revenue. Net Debt (Cash) is the total carrying amount of long-term debt including current portions, as presented in the Q1 2026 Financial Statements, less cash and excluding any lease liabilities. Net Debt (Cash) is a liquidity metric used to determine how well the Company can pay its debt obligations if they were due immediately.
Free Cash Flow is a supplemental measure used by Management and other users of the financial statements to monitor the availability of discretionary cash generated, and available to the Company to repay debt, make strategic investments, and meet other payment obligations. We define Free Cash Flow as operating cash flows less net capital expenditures.

Forward-looking statements are also subject to risks and uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements for a variety of reasons, including without limitation: economic, political and geopolitical conditions; catastrophic space events, natural disasters and other significant disruptions; policies, priorities, mandates and funding levels of governmental entities; the termination of customer contracts; our revenue pipeline not resulting in firm contracts or realized revenue; the ability to execute large, complex and fixed-price contracts within expected cost, schedule and performance parameters; variability in the timing and realization of revenues from backlog; cybersecurity risks; tariffs or other international trade disputes; the loss, failure or performance degradation of RADARSAT-2; revenue concentration in a small number of contracts; the failure to successfully implement our growth strategy; supplier risks; our ability to develop new technology; risks associated with artificial intelligence and the adoption of emerging technologies; our ability to attract, train and retain employees; regulatory and export control requirements and approvals; financing, liquidity and covenant compliance risks; and the other risks and uncertainties detailed under the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s annual information form dated March 4, 2026.
