Satellogic's headline $20M Q2 net loss hides its first-ever profitable quarter, since $19.7M was a non-cash mark-to-market charge on convertible notes and warrants. Revenue rose 259% to $15.9M while opex grew 46%, with $2.8M of adjusted EBITDA, an 82% gross margin ex-depreciation and $112.8M of cash. Satellites built in-house for about $1.3M each and non-ITAR independence from the US win sovereign customers, with a roughly $1B pipeline. 2027 should be another step forward. x.com  x.com 

Satellogic is turning from a story stock into a delivery stock, backed by firm paid contracts as it shifts from imagery sales to subscription Constellation-as-a-Service and AI defense intelligence. Q1 2026 RPO reached $64.8M, with $29.2M converting to revenue within 12 months, and Nuveen and UBS sharply raised positions. Its in-house LEO constellation lets smaller nations own dedicated satellite access, winning large, sticky defense deals, and its Merlin AI platform helped lift gross profit. … Show more

Satellogic's technology is proving itself as defense customers move from trial to full deployment in six months. It just won an $18M contract for persistent, high-frequency Earth observation imagery, after an April $12M in-orbit satellite sale to a sovereign defense customer, and Q1 revenue rose 80%. Defense customers no longer accept coverage gaps from legacy providers. After a 350% year-to-date run the stock fell 25% in two sessions; the $7.90-8.30 support zone is the next accumulation window. … Show more

Rocket Lab's record Q2 and Iridium deal show it becoming an end-to-end space and defense platform that can capture more value than a launch-only company. Q2 revenue hit a record $234M, up 62%, and backlog a record $2.36B after over $1B of new contracts. Iridium adds over $870M of annual L-band revenue tied to government and enterprise. Launch revenue fell 30% sequentially largely because more HASTE defense work is recognized over time; Mynaric integration weighs on near-term margins. x.com 

Satellogic has much higher upside than Planet Labs, with an inflection point likely later this year when it launches its Merlin satellites. Replying to @Kaizen_Investor's Planet Labs deep dive, Satellogic is the preferred name between the two. x.com 

Space stocks are turning bullish as oversold names that never stopped executing regain momentum, led by AST SpaceMobile, Rocket Lab and flyExclusive. AST launched BlueBird and began direct-to-cell service in Japan, and Rocket Lab landed a roughly $400M award. AmpliTech's multi-sector exposure is overlooked, and CPS Technologies is a bottleneck play for 2027; Satellogic, Velo3D and Voyager also fit. The SpaceX unlock overhang is only partly gone, so re-entry should wait. x.com 

Space names like Satellogic are worth front-running ahead of the SpaceX IPO, especially at SpaceX's roughly $1.75 trillion valuation. Capital flows into the space sector should be hot, though volatile. Satellogic says SpaceX has confirmed its upcoming launch of two NewSat Mark V satellites to expand its constellation. x.com 

Satellogic is an early-stage company with big upside as space becomes an autonomous infrastructure layer. It is building real-time data communication satellites in low Earth orbit, and a potential SpaceX IPO could heat up the theme fast. x.com 

Satellogic continues to head higher as the broader space trade carries it, with space stocks showing relative strength. Its chart shows a large rounding bottom that could set up a reversal, and Golden Dome speculation adds to the case. x.com 

Rocket Lab's expanding contracted work improves medium- and long-term revenue visibility. Synspective added 20 dedicated Electron launches for 2028-31, bringing its total to 47; backlog reached $2.4 billion after more than $1 billion in Q2 and early-Q3 awards. Space Systems broadens the business beyond launches, while Neutron's medium-lift upside still depends on reaching operational orbit. x.com
