Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Reporting Note R – Segment Reporting
Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer.

During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company reorganized its segment structure to align with the strategic offerings of each business segment and the way the CODM assesses performance and makes capital allocation decisions. The Company previously operated in one operating segment and one reportable segment. Prior period segment information has been revised to reflect the reorganized segment structure.
The Company operates in two operating segments and two reportable segments, Space and Defense Tech. The Space segment develops and provides next-generation spacecraft, large space infrastructure, and microgravity capabilities to serve civil, national security, and commercial space customers. The Defense Tech segment develops and provides combat proven autonomous systems, optical sensors and radio frequency payloads that provide intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities for U.S. and allied nations across multiple domains.

The CODM assesses segment performance and decides how to allocate resources based on Segment Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, defined as income (loss) before taxes, excluding, depreciation and amortization, impairment expense, transaction expenses, acquisition integration costs, acquisition earnout costs, purchase accounting fair value adjustment related to deferred revenue and inventory, severance costs, disposal of long-lived assets, equity-based compensation, capital market and advisory fees, litigation-related expenses, and gains on sale of joint ventures, net of costs incurred. Segment Adjusted EBITDA also excludes intra- and inter-segment sales and costs and corporate pushdown costs. Total asset information is not included in the following summary since the CODM does not regularly review such information for the reportable segments.

The Company has intra- and inter-segment sales and costs, which are eliminated in the reportable Segment Adjusted EBITDA figures below. The Company had $0.3 million and $1.8 million of inter-segment sales and costs during the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $1.8 million and $4.5 million of inter-segment sales and costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, which are eliminated in consolidation. Further information related to the Company’s products and services and geographical distribution of revenues is disclosed in Note N – Revenues.

All other corporate charges presented in the tables below mainly consists of corporate overhead costs maintained at the corporate level, including gains and losses related to financial instruments measured at fair value. These expenses include costs relating to treasury, accounting, consulting, advisory, legal, tax and audit, insurance, financial reporting services and various administrative expenses related to the corporate headquarters.
The following tables provide a reconciliation of Segment Adjusted EBITDA to consolidated income (loss) before taxes:
