Kratos Defense sees Q1 revenue $335M-$345M, consensus $347.03M

Sees Q1 adjusted EBITDA $25M-$30M. DeMarco concluded, “We believe that Kratos’ strategy and consistent business plan since inception, including making true internally funded investments ahead of government commitment, for facilities, manufacturing capability and relevant products for the warfighter, while not paying dividends or buying back our stock, are aligned with the current Administration and is an important differentiator for Kratos. I believe that due to the global threat environment, certain customers are out of time, have limited immediate resources, and that the significant investments that Kratos has made to be first-to-market with relevant systems, hardware and software are now invaluable. We believe that the scarcity value of Kratos is clear, and we are laser focused on our balanced business model of making investments, rapidly delivering affordable products and systems to the warfighter at scale, and generating a financial return for our investors.”
