Investments and Debts

The following transactions occurred between the Company and AE Industrial, which beneficially owned 36.68% of the Company's common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2026. Even though the Company is part of AE Industrial’s portfolio of companies, it is not a part of AE Industrial’s consolidated tax return and files its tax returns independently.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, AE Industrial purchased 0.3 million shares of the Series D-1 Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $5.0 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, there were no such purchases by AE Industrial.

Accounts Payable and Expenses

On August 8, 2025, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Consulting Agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”) with AE Industrial Operating Partners, LLC (“AE Operating”), an affiliate of AE Industrial. Under the Consulting Agreement, the Company will pay AE Operating an annual fee of approximately $2.4 million for consulting and advisory services until the earlier of August 8, 2027, or the time AE Industrial beneficially owns less than 10% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Expenses recorded under this agreement for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $0.5 million.

In addition to AE Operating, G.S. Precision and Redwire Corporation are also related parties of the Company, as these entities are part of AE Industrial’s investment portfolio and share a common board of directors.

The following is a summary of the Company’s related party accounts payable and accrued expenses as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, and related party research and development and selling, general, and administrative expenses:
