News Release

Advancing mission execution, commercial momentum, revenue growth, and stronger balance sheet

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 5, 2026-- Momentus Inc. (NASDAQ: MNTS) (“Momentus” or the “Company”), a U.S. commercial space company specializing in satellite technology, space transportation, and in‑orbit services, today announced that it has released a Letter to Shareholders from CEO John Rood, detailing the company’s progress in winning new contracts, growing revenue, retiring its debt, and strengthening its balance sheet.

The letter outlines key achievements across mission execution, technology development, and commercial expansion.

“Our team continues to demonstrate disciplined execution,” said CEO John Rood in the letter. “We remain focused on delivering for our customers, strengthening our operational foundation, and positioning Momentus for long‑term growth.”

Highlights from the Letter to Shareholders include:

• Strong execution: Momentus launched its Vigoride 7 spacecraft to orbit on March 30, 2026 on the SpaceX Transporter 16 launch vehicle. Vigoride 7’s mission features demonstrations of cutting-edge space technologies and operations planned over the next several months.
• Space Force budget increase: The FY2027 U.S. Space Force budget request of $71 billion—more than double last year’s allocation—potentially represents an historic inflection in government space spending.
• Government contract awards accelerating: Momentus holds active contracts with DARPA, the U.S. Air Force Research Labs (AFRL) SpaceWERX organization, the U.S. Space Force’s Space Development Agency (SDA), NASA, and the Missile Defense Agency, including the SHIELD IDIQ— where Momentus has the right to compete for contracts in a $151 billion, 10-year national defense contract vehicle tied to the Golden Dome missile defense initiative. Momentus is cleared to Top Secret and positioned to compete for classified programs.
• Revenue inflection: Momentus forecasts revenue of $10.0 million in 2026, a 9X increase over $1.1 million in 2025, driven by milestone-based contracts with NASA and the U.S. Department of Defense.
• Strengthened balance sheet: Cash on hand increased to $26.2 million as of April 23, 2026, up from $12.8 million at year-end 2025, which we estimate provides us with at least a 12-month runway.
• Fundamental Institutional Investor Support: On April 16, 2026, we closed a $5 million private placement of common stock priced at the market under Nasdaq rules with a fundamental institutional investor.
• Convertible Debt Retired: As of April 17, 2026, the Company’s remaining $1.35 million convertible debt outstanding as of December 31, 2025 has been retired. As of the date of this letter, Momentus has no outstanding debt.
• Vigoride 8 already sold out: The next orbital service vehicle mission, planned for 2027, is fully subscribed with NASA-awarded contracts, demonstrating continued customer demand.
