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, 2025, and other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Non-GAAP MeasuresTo 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, capital raise expense, severance costs, equity-based compensation and impairment loss. 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, 2026 and 2025:Three Months EndedJune 30,20262025Change%Net Income / (Loss)$(4,781,269)$(5,625,070)$843,80115%Interest Income/Expense (i)(910,978)334,659(1,245,637)(372)%Depreciation and Amortization (ii)607,9561,132,296(524,340)(46)%Capital Raise expense (iii)----Severance Costs26,50527,320(815)(3)%Equity based compensation (iv)(17,882)184,448(202,330)(110)%Total Non-GAAP Adjustments(294,399)1,678,723(1,973,122)(118)%Adjusted EBITDA(5,075,668)(3,946,347)(1,129,321)(29)%(i)Sidus Space earned net interest income following the repayment of the asset-based loan in January 2026 and increased interest income from higher cash balances resulting from the April 2026 and May 2026 offerings.(ii)Sidus Space incurred lower depreciation expense following the satellite impairment write-off in Q4 2025.(iii)Sidus Space did not incur internal fundraising expense related to capital raises.
