Momentus Inc. Announces
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Financial Results
March 07,
Momentus Inc. announced its
financial results for the fourth quarter and full
year ended December 31, 2022.
John Rood, Momentus Chief
Executive Officer, said, “Momentus took great
strides in 2022 and so far in 2023 toward our goal
of being one of the market leaders in in-space
transportation and infrastructure services. We are
one of a select number of companies that have
launched orbital service vehicles into space to
serve this market. We have made significant progress
on our technology development, conducting the first
launch of our Vigoride Orbital Service Vehicle in
May 2022 and our second Vigoride launch in January
2023, which is a mission that remains underway. We
deployed our first eight customer satellites in
orbit. We have recruited a highly experienced group
of leaders for our engineering, technology, program
management, manufacturing, and supply chain
organizations that we believe gives us a competitive
edge over our peer group.”
Rood went on to say, “We see
multiple opportunities for growth. We recently
signed new and repeat commercial customers and are
seeing increased interest in our services. We have
begun to focus on growing our government business
and are delighted that NASA contracted with us to
fly two satellites on our next launch targeted for
April 2023 on an important mission to study
spacecraft interactions with the upper atmosphere.
Finally, we’re excited about the significant
interest we are seeing from U.S. Defense Department
organizations in our capabilities and expect to be
very competitive in winning contracts in this area.”
The space economy continues to
experience significant growth. The number of small
satellites launched continues to grow to historic
highs and new regulations put in place by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requiring
the de-orbit of satellites in Low Earth Orbit has
combined to create a very favorable demand outlook
for the services we provide.
Momentus is eager to play a key
role in the vibrant and growing space economy and we
look forward to showing more progress in 2023.
