The Numbers Work for Space Exploration Technologies. Our Screen Doesn’t. We Pass.
Earnings Review · 20 October 2026
The print
Results are in but not yet verified against a primary source in our ledger; this review updates the moment the audited figures land. What does not change is our read below.
Did the flow confirm the move?
Underlying money flow is neutral (21-day Chaikin Money Flow -0.05, five-day price change -9.5%, as of 2026-10-19, desk flow model): no strong accumulation or distribution signature.
Give the business its due
The business itself is genuinely strong: revenue growing about 92%, net margins near -36%.
Levels that matter
At $147.96 the shares sit 34% below the 52-week high of $225.64 and 41% above the low of $104.83 (36% of the way up the range).
The valuation lens
The shares trade about 13% above our fair-value estimate: priced for things to go right. Fair value lands near $132 against a $152.16 share price, a margin of safety of about -13%.
The ethical lens, our differentiator
Fails the principled screen, Business activity. A strong business is not the same as a suitable one; for a values-conscious book this is a do-not-chase regardless of the print.
The compliant alternative
There is no direct compliant equivalent in the same industry on our screen, the honest answer is to screen a step wider rather than reach for a false substitute.
The verdict for a values-conscious investor
A beat-and-raise does not change the screen. This is a great company you can admire without owning, protection first. One quarter, strong or soft, does not decide whether a holding is suitable.
