Intuitive Machines Reports Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results; Raises Low-end of 2024 Revenue Outlook

  • Achieved $41.4 million of revenue in Q2, up 130% YoY; $114.5 million year to date, more than all of 2023

  • Raised low-end of full-year 2024 revenue outlook to $210 - $240 million, resulting in 2.6x - 3x prior year sales

  • Q2 ending cash balance and milestone payments on existing contracts expected to be sufficient to fund operations through the next 12 months

  • Currently zero debt on the balance sheet; paid down $5 million debt in Q2; remaining $3 million paid in July

  • Continued mission two assembly, integration and testing; completed engine qualification; received contract modifications of $12.5 million for landing site selection; expected shipment of the completed lander to the launch site in Q4

  • Signed $18 million in commercial rideshare delivery services since Q1, sold out mission two and continuing to sell rideshare capacity on future missions

  • Submitted letter of interest in July to commercialize the NASA VIPER rover system and deliver using the Company’s cargo class Nova-D lunar lander

HOUSTON, Aug. 13, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intuitive Machines, Inc. (Nasdaq: LUNR, “Intuitive Machines,” or the “Company”), a leading space exploration, infrastructure, and services company, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Intuitive Machines CEO Steve Altemus said, “The landmark accomplishments achieved up to and during the second quarter were significant milestones that extend our competitive advantage in providing delivery, data transmission, and autonomous operations, the three pillars of space commercialization.”

“For our second mission, we made considerable progress continuing with assembly, integration, and testing of our lander, including successful flight engine qualification. We also completed the system requirements review for our lunar terrain vehicle. This milestone validated Intuitive Machines’ lunar terrain vehicle and heavy cargo class lander design. Intuitive Machines is unique among the competitors in the LTV bidding pool as we are the only competing prime contractor with demonstrated experience delivering to, transmitting data from, and autonomously operating on the surface of the Moon.”

Mr. Altemus continued, “Our continued operational excellence, along with our detailed roadmap for the rest of the year, gives us the confidence to raise the low end of our revenue outlook. On the cash side, we are now debt free and expect to have more runway with sufficient cash today to fund operations for the next 12 months as we execute on our growth trajectory.”

2024 Outlook

  • Expect full-year 2024 revenue of $210 - $240 million, resulting in 2.6x - 3x prior year sales
  • Q2 ending cash balance expected to be sufficient to fund operations through the next 12 months
  • Continue to add cash reserves based on projected wins and planned operations to execute growth trajectory
  • Backlog expansion driven by key upcoming awards; Near Space Network Services (NSNS), the next Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) award, among others
  • Expected shipment of the mission two completed lander to the launch site in the fourth quarter with the launch window extending through the first quarter of 2025

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights

  • Contracted backlog of $213.0 million as of the end of the second quarter
  • Second quarter 2024 revenue of $41.4 million, an increase of 130% year-over-year, driven primarily by the OMES, LTVS, and JETSON low power nuclear satellite projects. Revenue also includes the impact of changes in estimates associated with NASA CLPS contract modifications. Prior period revenue was $18.0 million
  • Second quarter 2024 operating loss of $(28.2) million, driven primarily by the completion of the IM-1 mission and the noncash impact of changes in estimates associated with NASA CLPS contract modifications versus $(13.2) million in the prior year period
  • Ending cash balance of $31.6 million as of the end of the second quarter and is expected to be sufficient to fund operations through the next 12 months. This includes $21.5M of cash outflow in the quarter for launch provider payments for IM-1, IM-2, and IM-3; majority of launch provider payments now behind us

Conference Call Information

Intuitive Machines will host a conference call today, August 13, 2024, at 8:30 am Eastern Time to discuss these results. A link to the live webcast of the earnings conference call will be made available on the investors portion of the Intuitive Machines’ website at https://investors.intuitivemachines.com.

Following the conference call, a webcast replay will be available through the same link on the investors portion of the Intuitive Machines’ website at https://investors.intuitivemachines.com.

Key Business Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the GAAP financial measures set forth in this press release, the Company has included certain financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and constitute “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined by the SEC. This includes adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”).

Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance measure that our management team uses to assess the Company’s operating performance and is calculated as net income (loss) excluding results from non-operating sources including interest income, interest expense, gain on extinguishing of debt, share-based compensation, change in fair value instruments, gain or loss on issuance of securities, other income/expense, depreciation, and provision for income taxes. Intuitive Machines has included Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is helpful in highlighting trends in the Company’s operating results and because it is frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical measure, and investors should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Other companies, including companies in Intuitive Machines’ industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, net income (loss) and our other GAAP results.   A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is included below under the heading “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measure.”

We define free cash flow as net cash (used in) provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. We believe that free cash flow is a meaningful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated from operations that, after purchases of property and equipment, can be used for strategic initiatives, including continuous investment in our business and strengthening our balance sheet. Free Cash Flow has limitations as a liquidity measure, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our cash flows as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: Free Cash Flow is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP; Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics of other companies due to differences among methods of calculation; and Free Cash Flow may be affected in the near to medium term by the timing of capital investments, fluctuations in our growth and the effect of such fluctuations on working capital and changes in our cash conversion cycle.   A reconciliation of Free Cash Flow to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is included below under the heading “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measure.”

The Company has also included contracted backlog, which is defined as the total estimate of the revenue the Company expects to realize in the future as a result of performing work on awarded contracts, less the amount of revenue the Company has previously recognized. Intuitive Machines monitors its backlog because we believe it is a forward-looking indicator of potential sales which can be helpful to investors in evaluating the performance of its business and identifying trends over time.

Free Cash Flow

We define free cash flow as net cash (used in) provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. We believe that free cash flow is a meaningful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated from operations that, after purchases of property and equipment, can be used for strategic initiatives, including continuous investment in our business and strengthening our balance sheet.

Free Cash Flow has limitations as a liquidity measure, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our cash flows as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

  • Free Cash Flow is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
  • Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics of other companies due to differences among methods of calculation.
  • Free Cash Flow may be affected in the near to medium term by the timing of capital investments, fluctuations in our growth and the effect of such fluctuations on working capital and changes in our cash conversion cycle.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net cash used in operating activities, the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP, to free cash flow:

 Six Months Ended June 30,

Net cash used in operating activities(37,702) (15,774)

Backlog

The following table presents our backlog as of the periods indicated:

(in thousands) June 30, 2024 December 31, 2023
Backlog $212,980  $268,566 


Backlog decreased by $55.6 million as of June 30, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023, primarily due to continued performance on existing contracts of $114.5 million and decreases related to contract value adjustments of $10.7 million primarily related to various certain fixed price contracts and task order adjustments on the OMES III contract. The decrease was partially offset by $69.6 million in new awards primarily associated with the Lunar Terrain Vehicle Services design project, a new commercial payload contract on the IM-3 mission, task order modification to the IM-2 CLPS contract and an unapproved task order modification to the IM-3 CLPS contract.
