What to verify next

Research questions
01

Convert delivery into collected cash[1][3]

Revenue growth coexists with negative first-half operating cash flow.

WatchIn the next filing, compare receivables, contract assets and inventory with revenue and cash collections.

02

Space Systems and Launch Services have different delivery and recognition patterns.

WatchTrack segment revenue and gross profit against dated delivery milestones; keep backlog and options separate.
