CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Sidus Space (NASDAQ: SIDU) (the "Company" or "Sidus"), a provider of end-to-end precision Space Infrastructure solutions that include satellite Data-as-a-Service on its proprietary on-orbit platform, announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024 and provided a business update. The Company is scheduled to host a conference call and webcast today, Monday, August 19th, at 5:00 p.m. ET.
"During the second quarter of 2024, we achieved a major milestone with the successful commissioning of our first LizzieSat™ (LS-1) which was launched on the SpaceX Transporter-10 Rideshare Mission in March. Following this critical phase, we began activating payloads and accomplished the primary objectives of several LS-1 missions. As the first commercial satellite designed, manufactured and operated entirely by Sidus, LS-1 has demonstrated our vertical integration capabilities and our experience in deploying and operating our satellite equipped with multiple technologies that serve a diverse range of applications and customers," said Carol Craig, Founder and CEO of Sidus Space. "This accomplishment marks a significant step forward in our strategy to establish Sidus as a leader in the Space ecosystem. Our Space-based Data-as-a-Service business model, enabled by the LizzieSat™ constellation, is primed to scale rapidly, driving high-margin revenue as we prepare for the launches of LizzieSat™ 2 and 3 with SpaceX," Ms. Craig concluded.

Financial Highlights for the Second Quarter Ending June 30, 2024:
Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled approximately $3.1 million, a $500,000 decrease from $3.6 million in Q2 2023, largely due to a reduction in payroll related expenses directly related to building our satellites which were reclassed to fixed asset as well as a reduction in professional fees and insurance expense.
Total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024, totaled approximately $930,000, a decrease of $440,000 compared to total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This decrease was primarily driven by the timing of fixed price manufacturing milestones and delays in satellite contract payments, which are expected to recover in the second half of the year.
Cost of revenue increased 105% to approximately $1.8 million, up from $860,000 in Q2 2023. The percent change in the cost of revenue was higher than the percent decrease in revenue due to a mix of contracts with higher material expenses vice labor, shifts in milestone payments for our higher margin satellite related business and higher depreciation costs associated with the monthly depreciation of our first satellite asset deployed March 2024.
The gross profit margin decreased to negative (91%), compared to 37% in Q2 2023, mainly due to lower satellite related revenue versus prior year due in large part by the timing of satellite related payments and fixed price milestone contracts in the first half of 2024 and higher costs related to the depreciation of our first satellite asset.
Adjusted EBITDA loss, a non-GAAP measure for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $3.2 million, compared to $2.8 million for the same period the prior year. Total non-GAAP adjustments for interest expense, depreciation and amortization, acquisition deal costs, severance costs, capital markets and advisory fees, equity-based compensation, and warrant costs are provided in the reconciliation table listed below.
Net Loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $4.1 million, compared to a net loss of $3.5 million in the same quarter of 2023.

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this press release about future expectations, plans and prospects, as well as any other statements regarding matters that are not historical facts, may constitute 'forward-looking statements' within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements relating to the expected trading commencement and closing dates. The words 'anticipate,' 'believe,' 'continue,' 'could,' 'estimate,' 'expect,' 'intend,' 'may,' 'plan,' 'potential,' 'predict,' 'project,' 'should,' 'target,' 'will,' 'would' and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including: the uncertainties related to market conditions and other factors described more fully in the section entitled 'Risk Factors' in Sidus Space's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

NON-GAAP MEASURES
To provide investors with additional information in connection with our results as determined in accordance with GAAP, we use non-GAAP measures of adjusted EBITDA. We use adjusted EBITDA in order to evaluate our operating performance and make strategic decisions regarding future direction of the company since it provides a meaningful comparison to our peers using similar measures. We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (as determined by U.S. GAAP) adjusted for interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, acquisition deal costs, severance costs, capital market and advisory fees, equity-based compensation and warrant costs. These non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures made by other companies since not all companies will use the same measures. Therefore, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for relevant U.S. GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with information presented on a U.S. GAAP basis.
The following table reconciles adjusted EBITDA to net loss (the most comparable GAAP measure) for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:
