Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Note N – Commitments and Contingencies Contingencies in the Normal Course of Business Under certain contracts with the U.S. government and certain governmental entities, contract costs, including indirect costs, are subject to audit by and adjustment through negotiation with governmental representatives. Revenue is recorded in amounts expected to be realized on final settlement of any such audits. Legal Proceedings The Company is subject to litigation, claims, investigations and audits arising from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Although legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable, the Company believes that it has valid defenses with respect to any matters currently pending against it and intends to defend itself vigorously. Excluding pending matters disclosed below, the outcome of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company has established reserves for matters for which the Company believes that losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. For matters, including certain of those described herein, where the Company has not established a reserve, the ultimate outcome or resolution cannot be predicted at this time, or the amount of ultimate loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated. These matters are subject to many uncertainties and the outcome of the individual claims is not predictable with certainty. It is possible that certain of the actions, claims, inquiries or proceedings, including those discussed herein, could be decided unfavorably to the Company or any of its subsidiaries involved. Accordingly, it is possible that an adverse outcome from such a proceeding could exceed the amount accrued in an amount that could be material to the accompanying consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period. The Company recognizes legal expenses when incurred, unless otherwise disclosed below, as selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). On December 17, 2021, the Company, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Peter Cannito, and then current, but now former Chief Financial Officer, William Read, were named as defendants in a putative class action complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. That litigation is captioned Lemen v. Redwire Corp. et al., Case No. 3:21-cv-01254-TJC-PDB (M.D. Fla.). On March 7, 2022, the Court appointed a lead plaintiff. On June 17, 2022, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint. In the amended complaint, the lead plaintiff alleges that the Company and certain of its directors and officers made misleading statements and/or failed to disclose material facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects, allegedly in violation of Section 10(b) (and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder) and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act. As relief, the plaintiffs are seeking, among other things, compensatory damages. On August 16, 2022, the defendants moved to dismiss the complaint in its entirety, and such motion was denied by the Court on March 22, 2023. On November 15, 2024, the Company and plaintiffs filed a joint motion for a stipulated order to settle this litigation pursuant to a settlement agreement entered into among the parties. Under the terms of the agreement, Redwire will pay $8.0 million to settle claims brought on behalf of purchasers of Redwire’s publicly traded shares from March 25, 2021, through March 31, 2022. Redwire has also agreed to certification of a settlement class to facilitate resolution of claims. The Company has consistently denied the accusations and entered into this proposed settlement, which is not an admission or concession of liability, to avoid the costs and risks inherent in continued litigation. The settlement would resolve all claims against Redwire Corporation and other defendants in this matter. The settlement has received preliminary approval from the court but remains subject to final court approval. The Company has recognized a loss contingency of $8.0 million and a $1.0 million anticipated insurance recovery as of December 31, 2024, which is its best estimate of probable loss and recovery based on the current circumstances. The loss contingency and anticipated recovery is included as other current liabilities and prepaid and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets, respectively, and other (income) expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). On May 25, 2022, a plaintiff commenced derivative litigation in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware on behalf of the Company against Peter Cannito, Les Daniels, Reggie Brothers, Joanne Isham, Kirk Konert, Jonathan Baliff, and John S. Bolton. That litigation is captioned Yingling v. Cannito, et al., Case No. 1:22-cv-00684-MN (D. Del.). The complaint’s allegations are similar to those of the class action lawsuit filed in December 2021, namely, that statements about Redwire’s business and operations were misleading due to alleged material weaknesses in the Company’s financial reporting internal controls. The plaintiff alleges the defendants violated Section 10(b) (and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder) and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, breached their fiduciary duty by allowing misleading disclosures to be made, and caused the Company to overpay compensation and bonuses tied to the Company’s financial performance. As relief, the plaintiffs are seeking, among other things, compensatory and punitive damages. This litigation had previously been stayed pending resolution of the class action lawsuit filed on December 17, 2021. Since that matter is now before the court for approval of a settlement agreement, the stay in the Yingling matter has automatically lifted. The defendants believe the allegations are without merit and intend to defend the lawsuit vigorously. The matter is currently in the early stages of discovery and the Company is currently unable to predict the likely outcome of the proceedings or estimate the range of reasonably possible losses, which may be material. However, the amount of any reasonable possible loss or range of loss is expected to be recoverable through the Company’s D&O insurance policy. Business Combinations The Company has acquired and plans to continue to acquire businesses with prior operating histories. These acquisitions may have unknown or contingent liabilities, which the Company may become responsible for and could have a material impact on the Company’s future operating results and cash flows. In addition, the Company may incur acquisition costs, regardless of whether or not the acquisition is ultimately completed, which may be material to future periods. Commitments During the year-ended December 31, 2023, the Company entered into an economic development agreement to serve as the anchor tenant at the new Novaparke Innovation & Technology Campus in Floyd County, Indiana, the construction of which is anticipated to be completed during fiscal year 2025. In accordance with the agreement, the Company has committed to enter into a lease for a 30,000 square foot property. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had entered into the associated lease. Refer to Note K – Leases for additional information. Letters of Credit The Company has entered into letters of credit issued on our behalf by financial institutions secured by restricted cash. Letters of credit generally are available for draw down in the event we do not fulfill our contractual obligations. The Company had outstanding letters of credit of $15.4 million as of December 31, 2024. The Company had no outstanding letters of credit as of December 31, 2023.
