Rocket Lab Corporation Unveils New Electric Propulsion Satellite Thruster Rocket Lab Corporation introduced a new electric satellite thruster designed for high-volume production to meet the growing demand for reliable satellite propulsion across commercial and national security constellations. Rocket Lab’s in-house designed and manufactured electric propulsion system, named Gauss, features a Hall Thruster, Power Processing Unit and a Propellant Management Assembly. Rocket Lab has already established a high-volume Gauss production line designed to produce more than 200 thrusters per year, ensuring the Company can supply thrusters on demand in large quantities. Electric propulsion thrusters have historically proven extremely difficult to produce in high volumes, causing supply chain fragility for national security and commercial constellation operators alike. Rocket Lab has leveraged extensive propulsion experience, as well as the proven ability to manufacture critical satellite subsystems in high volumes, to finally deliver an electric propulsion solution in the rapidly growing quantities needed by the global space industry. The Gauss thruster is designed to produce a higher specific impulse compared to traditional chemical propulsion systems, enabling it to produce more thrust per unit of propellant and making it more efficient for long-duration missions. Because of this high efficiency, the Gauss thruster will allow spacecraft to carry less propellant while still achieving high performance, making it ideal for prolonged missions, such as deep space exploration, and satellite station-keeping within constellations. In naming the thruster after Carl Friedrich Gauss, Rocket Lab continues a long tradition of naming rocket and spacecraft engines after renowned physicists. The Gauss thruster joins Rocket Lab’s existing suite of propulsion systems including the Electron rocket’s Rutherford engine, the Neutron rocket’s Archimedes engine, and the Electron Kick Stage’s Curie engine. Key Gauss Features: Heaterless cathode technology enabling instantaneous start. Magnetic shielding reduces erosion and extends lifetime to support long duration missions. Efficient GaNFet based electronics for optimized performance. Simple software command interface eliminates complex PPU parameter management. ITAR/EAR-free design well suited for wide range of LEO constellation applications. Xenon propellant (Krypton also possible). Aankondiging • Apr 15

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 18% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (13% average weekly change). Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (18% increase in shares outstanding). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (€8.5m sold). Reported Earnings • Feb 27

Rocket Lab Corporation Announces Neutron Launch Vehicle's Innovative "Hungry Hippo" Captive Fairing Has Successfully Completed Qualification Testing and Is Enroute to Virginia for Neutron's First Launch Rocket Lab Corporation announced the Neutron launch vehicle's innovative "Hungry Hippo" captive fairing has successfully completed qualification testing and is enroute to Virginia for Neutron's first launch. Dubbed the Hungry Hippo, Neutron's fairing halves remain attached to the rocket's first stage throughout launch and landing back to Earth - a world-first for a reusable commercial rocket. Whereas typical rockets' fairinghalves fall away during launch and are disposable or require collection at sea for reuse, Neutron's Fairing halves open to release the rocket's second stage and mission payload before closing again to return Neutron to Earth as a single reusable vehicle - enabling rapid and cost-effective reuse and streamlining operations for a high-cadence launch service for commercial, civil, and national security missions. The qualification is a key moment in the development of the reusable Neutron rocket, the world's largest carbon composite launch vehicle with a lift capacity of up to 13,000kg (33,000 pounds). Building, qualifying, and shipping Hungry Hippo is a fantastic marker of progress toward Neutron's first launch, Rocket Lab completed an intensive qualification and acceptance testing campaign that validated the structure's expected performance during the intense aerodynamic pressure of launch and re-entry featuring full-scale tests as well as a series of sub-component tests. Tests have included (but are not limited to): 275,000 pounds of force distributed across the Hungry Hippo's carbon composite structure to simulate the load experienced during Max Q, the stage of flight where the rocket experiences maximum aerodynamic pressure. Opening and closing the fairing halves under flight-like conditions in 1.5 seconds, less than half the time required for a successful stage separation and vehicle reorientation for descent. Flight-like operations combining flight software, avionics, GNC systems, and more, controlling both the canard actuation and fairing actuation systems, and using flight hardware for all avionics, harnessing, and mechanical systems. Combined torque and bending loads introduced at the canard hubs where the vehicle's aerodynamic control surfaces, or canards, are integrated to Neutron's fairing structure. These tests exceeded 125% of the load expected through all phases of flight. Exceedance of the handling loads that Hungry Hippo will experience throughout Neutron's full lifecycle: from integration of the Stage 2 that is attached to the interior of the rocket through to the full assembly Neutron and integration of the launch vehicle onto the launch mount, as well as recovery of the launch vehicle from its landing barge named 'Return On Investment'. Once Hungry Hippo arrives in Virginia, the fairing structure will be integrated to Neutron's first stage in final flight configuration to undergo pre-launch testing, including static fires and a Wet Dress Rehearsal, at Launch Complex 3 ahead of first launch.
