Karman Holdings Reports Record Q1 with $1b Backlog and Raises Guidance on Space and Defense Demand Karman Holdings reported record Q1 2026 results, with revenue up 51% year over year and earnings per share ahead of consensus expectations.
The company cited record gross profit, adjusted EBITDA and net income, supported by a backlog above $1b that management says provides strong visibility into future revenue.
Karman Space & Defense disclosed contingent demand commitments from four space and defense customers with a total potential multi-year value of more than $1b, while Karman raised full-year revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance and continues to invest in capacity expansion and acquisition integration.
The combination of record quarterly performance, a backlog above $1b and contingent commitments of more than $1b points to a business that is currently heavily tied to defense, space launch and maritime demand, including recent acquisitions such as Seemann Composites and MSC.
Investors may want to watch execution on capacity expansion and the conversion of contingent commitments into funded contracts, as well as any changes in Department of War funding that could affect future orders. Announcement • Apr 29
