Intuitive Machines CEO Steve Altemus said, “Just two years ago, we became a public company with a bold vision for the future. Over the past year, we’ve deliberately positioned ourselves for long-term success by expanding our technical capabilities, opening new revenue streams, and fortifying our financial position. Today, we stand stronger than ever— financially secure, debt-free, and ready to take the next leap.”

•Executed southernmost ever lunar landing on the South pole region of the Moon and accelerated payload operations for NASA’s PRIME-1 drill suite, Nokia’s Lunar Surface Communications System, Intuitive Machines’ Micro Nova Hopper, and several commercial payloads including a data center and a Japanese micro-rover (Q1 2025)

•Awarded additional contracts for NASA’s Near Space Network (“NSN”) for Direct-to-Earth (“DTE”) services to regions around the Moon and beyond the Moon

•Continued customer diversification through a contract to adapt our current technologies from our lunar delivery missions to create new capabilities, specifically an in-space orbital transfer vehicle “OTV” for a government customer (Q1 2025)

•Completed an upsized $125 million offering of Class A common stock and concurrent private placement with Boryung Corporation, a leading South Korean pharmaceutical company and strategic investor and partner for critical infrastructure opportunities in space

•Reported record backlog of $328.3 million, a 22% increase year-over-year and the highest quarter-ending backlog in Company history

•Achieved $54.7 million of revenue in Q4, up 79% year-over-year; $228.0 million for the year, nearly three times 2023 revenue

•Continued drive towards profitability with positive gross margin in Q4 and full year, our second consecutive quarter of positive gross margin

•Ended 2024 with $207.6 million in cash; as of March 10th our cash balance was $385 million following the completion of the warrant redemption process, streamlining the Company’s capital structure while substantially reducing the overhang from derivative securities

Mr. Altemus continued, “Now, with a fortress-like balance sheet, we’re seeking the highest-return opportunities, whether that’s through internal innovation or strategic acquisitions. Our proven technologies and expertise are propelling us beyond NASA and cislunar space, expanding our reach into new markets and customers. This year is not just about growth—it’s about defining the future of our company and the industry itself.”

Intuitive Machines will host a conference call today, March 24, 2025, at 8:30 am Eastern Time to discuss these results. A link to the live webcast of the earnings conference call will be made available on the investors portion of the Intuitive Machines’ website at https://investors.intuitivemachines.com.

In addition to the GAAP financial measures set forth in this press release, the Company has included certain financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and constitute “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined by the SEC. This includes adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”).

Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance measure that our management team uses to assess the Company’s operating performance and is calculated as net income (loss) excluding results from non-operating sources including interest income, interest expense, gain on extinguishing of debt, share based compensation, change in fair value instruments, depreciation, and provision for income taxes. Intuitive Machines has included Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is helpful in highlighting trends in the Company’s operating results and because it is frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical measure, and investors should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Other companies, including companies in Intuitive Machines’ industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, net income (loss) and our other GAAP results. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is included below under the heading “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measure.”

We define free cash flow as net cash (used in) provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. We believe that free cash flow is a meaningful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated from operations that, after purchases of property and equipment, can be used for strategic initiatives, including continuous investment in our business and strengthening our balance sheet. Free Cash Flow has limitations as a liquidity measure, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our cash flows as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:Free Cash Flow is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP; Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics of other companies due to differences among methods of calculation; and Free Cash Flow may be affected in the near to medium term by the timing of capital investments, fluctuations in our growth and the effect of such fluctuations on working capital and changes in our cash conversion cycle. A reconciliation of Free Cash Flow to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is included below under the heading “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measure.”

The Company has also included contracted backlog, which is defined as the total estimate of the revenue the Company expects to realize in the future as a result of performing work on awarded contracts, less the amount of revenue the Company has previously recognized. Intuitive Machines monitors its backlog because we believe it is a forward-looking indicator of potential sales which can be helpful to investors in evaluating the performance of its business and identifying trends over time.

Intuitive Machines is a diversified space technology, infrastructure, and services company focused on fundamentally disrupting lunar access economics. In 2024, Intuitive Machines successfully soft-landed the Company’s Nova-C class lunar lander, on the Moon, returning the United States to the lunar surface for the first time since 1972.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net loss, the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP, to Adjusted EBITDA.

We define free cash flow as net cash (used in) provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. We believe that free cash flow is a meaningful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated from operations that, after purchases of property and equipment, can be used for strategic initiatives, including continuous investment in our business and strengthening our balance sheet.

Free Cash Flow has limitations as a liquidity measure, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our cash flows as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

•Free Cash Flow is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

•Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics of other companies due to differences among methods of calculation.

•Free Cash Flow may be affected in the near to medium term by the timing of capital investments, fluctuations in our growth and the effect of such fluctuations on working capital and changes in our cash conversion cycle.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net cash used in operating activities, the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP, to free cash flow:

The following table presents our backlog as of the periods indicated:

Backlog increased by $59.8 million as of December 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023, due to $303.7 million in new awards primarily associated with the IM-4 CLPS, NSN, and LTV contracts awarded from NASA, and task order modifications to the existing IM-2 CLPS, IM-3 CLPS and OMES III contracts. These increases are partially offset by continued performance on existing contracts of $228.0 million and decreases related to contract value adjustments of $15.9 million mostly related to various fixed price contracts.
