Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(1) Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Virgin Galactic Holdings, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries ("Virgin Galactic" or the "Company"), is an aerospace and space travel company focused on the development, manufacture and operation of spaceships and related technologies. The Company provides access to space for private individuals, researchers and government agencies. The Company's missions include flying passengers to space, as well as flying scientific payloads and researchers to space in order to conduct experiments for scientific and educational purposes.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, in management's opinion, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including those of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

The operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Statement of Operations Presentation

In July 2023, the Company concluded that technological feasibility had been achieved for its initial spaceship, VSS Unity, and mothership carrier aircraft, VMS Eve, which together comprised the Company’s initial commercial spaceflight system. As a result, future costs associated with this spaceflight system, including the manufacture of related rocket motors, will no longer qualify as research and development activities.

Following the launch of commercial service and achievement of technological feasibility, the Company began presenting the operating expenses supporting the Company’s commercial spaceline activities as spaceline operations expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Expenses incurred prior to the achievement of technological feasibility were classified as research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses. Spaceline operations expense includes costs associated with commercial spaceflight services and production costs that are not eligible for capitalization. Spaceline operations expense also includes costs to support the Company’s Future Astronaut community and costs related to payload cargo and engineering services, which were previously presented as customer experience expense.

Reverse Stock Split

On June 14, 2024, the Company effected a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock (the "Reverse Stock Split"). As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 20 shares of the Company’s common stock issued or outstanding were automatically reclassified into one new share of common stock. Proportionate adjustments were also made to the exercise prices and the number of shares underlying the Company’s outstanding equity awards, as applicable, as well as to the number of shares issuable under the Company’s equity incentive plans and certain existing agreements. The Reverse Stock Split did not decrease the number of authorized shares of common stock or otherwise affect the par value of the common stock. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who were otherwise entitled to receive fractional shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split were paid cash in lieu thereof. All shares of the Company’s common stock, per-share data and related information included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted as though the Reverse Stock Split had been effected prior to all periods presented.

The Second A&R Plan was adopted by the Company's board of directors and became effective in April 2024, subject to the approval of the Company’s stockholders, and was approved by the Company’s stockholders in June 2024. The Second A&R Plan amended and restated the Amended and Restated Virgin Galactic Holdings, Inc. 2019 Incentive Plan (the “A&R Plan”) and made the following material changes to the A&R Plan: (i) increased the number of shares available by 0.7 million shares with an aggregate of 2.2 million shares reserved for issuance under the Second A&R Plan, (ii) increased the number of shares which may be granted as incentive stock options (“ISOs”) under the Second A&R Plan, such that an aggregate of 2.2 million shares may be granted as incentive stock options under the Second A&R Plan, and (iii) extended the right to grant awards under the plan through June 12, 2034, provided that incentive stock options may not be granted under the Second A&R Plan after April 18, 2034.

Pursuant to the Second A&R Plan and related predecessor plans, the Company has granted time-based stock options, performance-based stock options ("PSOs"), restricted stock units ("RSUs"), and performance stock units ("PSUs"). Pursuant to the Inducement Plan, the Company has granted RSUs.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had unrecognized stock-based compensation expense of $1.6 million for stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.0 year. There was no unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for PSOs. Unrecognized stock-based compensation expense as of September 30, 2024 for RSUs and PSUs totaled $28.8 million and $3.1 million, respectively, which are expected to be recognized over weighted-average periods of 2.3 years and 1.2 years, respectively.

(9) Special Charges

In November 2023, the Company commenced a restructuring plan designed to decrease costs and strategically realign its resources. In connection with this plan, the Company announced a workforce reduction constituting approximately 18% of its workforce. As a result, the Company recorded $4.4 million in severance and related benefit costs for the involuntarily terminated employees as special charges during the fourth quarter of 2023.

In January 2024, the Company fully paid the $1.4 million liability balance associated with these costs that was accrued at December 31, 2023.

(10) Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $105,000 and $53,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Income tax expense was $219,000 and $215,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The effective income tax rate was nil for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to a full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets where it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

(11) Earnings Per Share

The following table presents net loss per share and related information:


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023
	(In thousands, except per share amounts)
Basic and diluted:
Net loss	$	(74,540)	$	(104,604)	$	(270,327)	$	(398,353)
Weighted-average common shares outstanding	27,973		18,792		23,176		15,809
Basic and diluted net loss per share	$	(2.66)	$	(5.57)	$	(11.66)	$	(25.20)

Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted net loss per share excludes the effect of all potential common shares outstanding as their impact would have been anti-dilutive.

The Company has excluded stock-based awards and shares issuable upon conversion of the 2027 Notes from the diluted loss per share calculation because their effect was anti-dilutive. The total number of shares excluded for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were 2.6 million. The total number of shares excluded for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were 2.3 million.

(12) Fair Value Measurements

Assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements are required to be disclosed within a fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair value. Accordingly, assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified within the fair value hierarchy in one of the following categories:

• Level 1 inputs — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 inputs — Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

• Level 3 inputs — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability.

The following tables present the Company's financial assets that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, segregated among the appropriate levels within the fair value hierarchy:


	September 30, 2024
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is a party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company applies accounting for contingencies to determine when and how much to accrue for and disclose related to legal and other contingencies. Accordingly, the Company discloses contingencies deemed to be reasonably possible and accrues loss contingencies when, in consultation with legal advisors, it is concluded that a loss is probable and reasonably estimable. Although the ultimate aggregate amount of monetary liability or financial impact with respect to these matters is subject to many uncertainties and is therefore not predictable with assurance, management believes that any monetary liability or financial impact to the Company from these matters, individually and in the aggregate, beyond that provided at September 30, 2024, would not be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, there can be no assurance with respect to such result, and monetary liability or financial impact to the Company from legal proceedings, lawsuits and other claims could differ materially from those projected.

The Boeing Company and Aurora Flight Sciences Corporation v. the Company

On March 21, 2024, The Boeing Company and Aurora Flight Sciences Corporation, a Boeing Company (collectively, “Boeing”), filed suit against the Company in the Eastern District of Virginia, captioned The Boeing Company and Aurora Flight Sciences Corporation, a Boeing Company v. Virgin Galactic Holdings, Inc., Case No. 1:21-cv-03070. In its complaint, Boeing alleges that the Company breached the parties’ Master Agreement. Boeing further alleges trade secret misappropriation under the Delaware Uniform Trade Secrets Act (“DUTSA”), 6 Del C. § 2001, et. seq., and the Defend Trade Secrets Act (“DTSA”), 18 U.S.C. § 1836, et. seq., and filed a motion for preliminary injunction to destroy certain disputed documents. The complaint seeks damages in excess of $25 million, expenses, attorneys’ fees and other equitable relief. On April 12, 2024, the Company filed an answer to Boeing’s complaint and a counterclaim seeking damages relating to Boeing’s breach of the Master Agreement, as well as an opposition to Boeing’s motion for a preliminary injunction.

On April 4, 2024, the Company filed suit against Boeing in the Central District of California. In its complaint, the Company sought: (1) declaratory judgment of no misappropriation of trade secrets under either DUTSA or DTSA by the Company, (2) declaratory judgment of no breach of contract by the Company, and (3) damages related to Boeing’s breach of contract for failure to adequately perform, including incomplete work on design phases of the project. On April 12, 2024, Boeing filed a motion for an anti-suit injunction in connection with the Company’s California suit. On June 6, 2024, the Company voluntarily dismissed the California action without prejudice, electing to pursue its affirmative claims against Boeing by way of the counterclaim filed in the Virginia action, and on that same day the

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Company and Boeing jointly informed the Virginia court that the Company’s voluntary dismissal of the California action without prejudice rendered moot Boeing’s motion for an anti-suit injunction.

A hearing on the motion for a preliminary injunction took place on May 24, 2024. On June 20, 2024, the Court denied the preliminary injunction sought by Boeing, and ordered that the Company could use the disputed documents internally, and with third parties under a non-disclosure agreement, for the purpose of developing a new mothership.

On October 2, 2024, Boeing and the Company executed a “Material Terms of Settlement Agreement,” endorsed by Magistrate Judge Lindsey R. Vaala of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, by which they agreed to resolve all disputes between them relating to the lawsuits. The parties entered into a final Settlement Agreement effective October 31, 2024, and the litigation was dismissed in its entirety on November 4, 2024. The Company has reflected a benefit associated with this settlement in research and development expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Lavin v. the Company

On May 28, 2021, a class action complaint was filed against the Company in the Eastern District of New York captioned Lavin v. Virgin Galactic Holdings, Inc., Case No. 1:21-cv-03070. In September 2021, the Court appointed Robert Scheele and Mark Kusnier as co-lead plaintiffs for the purported class. Co-lead plaintiffs amended the complaint in December 2021, asserting violations of Sections 10(b), 20(a) and 20A of the Exchange Act of 1934 against the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors on behalf of a putative class of investors who purchased the Company's common stock between July 10, 2019 and October 14, 2021.

The amended complaint alleges, among other things, that the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors made false and misleading statements and failed to disclose certain information regarding the safety of the Company's ships and success of its commercial flight program. Co-lead plaintiffs seek damages, interest, costs, expenses, attorneys' fees, and other unspecified equitable relief. The defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint and, on November 7, 2022, the court granted in part and denied in part the defendants’ motion and gave the plaintiffs leave to file a further amended complaint.

Plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint on December 12, 2022. The second amended complaint contains many of the same allegations as in the first amended complaint. The defendants moved to dismiss the second amended complaint and, on August 8, 2023, the court granted in part and denied in part the defendants’ motion and did not give plaintiffs leave to file a further amended complaint. Plaintiffs moved for reconsideration of the court’s dismissal order and, on December 19, 2023, the court denied plaintiffs’ motion. On March 27, 2024, the defendants moved for judgment on the pleadings as to the remaining Section 10(b) insider trading claim alleged against Branson. On April 2, 2024, the court stayed briefing on defendants’ motion for judgment on the pleadings pending resolution of plaintiffs’ anticipated motion for leave to add a new representative plaintiff, which plaintiffs’ subsequently filed on May 1, 2024. The court granted plaintiffs’ motion on July 2, 2024. On July 8, 2024, defendants withdrew their motion for judgment on the pleadings.

On August 21, 2024, plaintiffs filed a third amended complaint in which Xinqiang Cui, Justin Carlough, Jennifer Ortiz, Richard O’Keefe-Jones, Vipul Gupta, Maria Josephine Rosales, and Hesham Ibrahim (previously named plaintiffs), were designated by plaintiffs as lead plaintiffs (in addition to Robert Scheele and Mark Kusnier), and an additional named plaintiff was added. The third amended complaint contains substantively the same allegations as in the second amended complaint. On September 11, 2024, defendants filed an answer to plaintiffs’ third amended complaint. The Company intends to continue to vigorously defend against this matter.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this section to the “Company,” "Virgin Galactic," “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to Virgin Galactic Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as the audited financial statements and the related notes thereto, and the discussion under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Business” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the "Annual Report on Form 10-K"). This discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, such as those set forth under the “Risk Factors” sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024 and under the "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" section and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

Overview

We are an aerospace and space travel company offering access to space for private individuals, researchers and government agencies. Our missions include flying passengers to space, as well as flying scientific payloads and researchers to space in order to conduct experiments for scientific and educational purposes. Our operations include the design and development, manufacturing, ground and flight testing, spaceflight operation, and post-flight maintenance of our spaceflight system. Our spaceflight system was developed using our proprietary technology and processes and is focused on providing space experiences for private astronauts, researcher flights and professional astronaut training. We have also leveraged our knowledge and expertise in manufacturing spaceships to occasionally perform engineering services for third parties.

Recent Developments

In June 2024, we completed our second spaceflight of 2024 and seventh commercial spaceflight to date, 'Galactic 07,' carrying one researcher and three private astronauts. Following the 'Galactic 07' flight, we paused Unity spaceflights and expect to re-commence flying with test flights of our new Delta Class spaceships in advance of restarting commercial service, which is expected to begin in 2026.

On June 12, 2024, at the Company’s 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, our stockholders approved, and on June 14, 2024, we effected, a 1-for-20 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”), and our common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on June 17, 2024. Prior to the Reverse Stock Split, on May 29, 2024, we received a notice from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that we were no longer in compliance with Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual (“Section 802.01C”), which requires listed companies to maintain an average closing price per share of at least $1.00 over a 30 consecutive trading-day period. Following the Reverse Stock Split, on July 1, 2024, we received a letter from the NYSE stating that we regained compliance with Section 802.01C.

All shares of our common stock, per-share data and related information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been retroactively adjusted as though the Reverse Stock Split had been effected prior to all periods presented.

In July 2024, we completed our new manufacturing facility in Mesa, Arizona, where final assembly of our next-generation Delta Class spaceships is scheduled to begin in 2025. After the initial development of our first Delta Class spaceship, we estimate the recurring cost to make each additional spaceship to be between $50 and $60 million.

In October 2024, we settled the lawsuit and all claims between us and The Boeing Company and Aurora Flight Sciences Corporation, a Boeing Company. See Note 13 in our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

Factors Affecting Our Performance

We believe that our performance and future success depend on a number of factors that present significant opportunities for us but also pose risks and challenges, including those discussed below, as well as in Part 1, Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K titled “Risk Factors” and in Part II, Item 1A. in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024.

Customer Demand

We have already received significant interest from potential astronauts. Going forward, we expect the size of our backlog and the number of astronauts that have flown to space on our spaceflight system to be an important indicator of our future performance. As of September 30, 2024, we have reservations for spaceflights for approximately 700 future astronauts, which represent approximately $194 million in expected future spaceflight revenue upon completion of the spaceflights.

Available Capacity and Annual Flight Rate

We commenced our commercial operations with VSS Unity and VMS Eve, which together comprised our initial commercial spaceflight system. Our annual flight rate is constrained by the availability and capacity of this commercial spaceflight system. To expand capacity, we are currently developing our next-generation spaceflight vehicles. These next-generation spaceflight vehicles, which include our Delta Class spaceships and additional motherships, are expected to dramatically increase our annual flight rate.

During the third quarter of 2024, we completed a number of significant milestones related to the design phase of our Delta Class spaceships, including the completion of a majority of the manufacturing designs. These achievements will enable us to deploy some of our engineers from the Delta program to the design of our new mothership. We anticipate these additional engineering and design resources, together with the infusion of additional growth capital, could enable us to deploy our new mothership for commercial service in 2028.

Safety Performance of Our Spaceflight Systems

Our spaceflight systems are highly specialized with sophisticated and complex technology. We have built operational processes to ensure that the design, manufacture, performance and servicing of our spaceflight systems meet rigorous quality standards. However, our spaceflight systems are still subject to operational and process risks, such as manufacturing and design issues, human errors, or cyber-attacks. Any actual or perceived safety issues may result in significant reputational harm to our business and our ability to generate spaceflight revenue.

Spaceline operations expense includes costs to maintain and operate our spaceflight system; non-capitalizable costs to build our new vehicles and manufacture items required to support the making of our vehicles, such as rocket motors and spare parts; the consumption of rocket motors, fuel and other consumables; costs to maintain and support our Future Astronaut community; and costs to provide payload cargo and engineering services.

Following the launch of commercial service and achievement of technological feasibility in July 2023, we began presenting the operating expenses supporting our commercial spaceline activities as spaceline operations expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Prior to achievement of technological feasibility, spaceline operations expense included costs to support our Future Astronaut community and costs related to payload cargo and engineering services, which were previously presented as customer experience expense.

Spaceline operations expense decreased from $25.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 to $19.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by a $5.4 million decrease in cash compensation and other employee benefit costs primarily due to a reduction in headcount and labor allocated to capitalizable projects.

Spaceline operations expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, following achievement of technological feasibility in July 2023, were primarily attributable to costs to maintain and operate our spaceflight system; non-capitalizable costs to build our new vehicles and manufacture items required to support the making of our vehicles; and costs to maintain and support our Future Astronaut community.

Research and development expenses represent costs incurred to support activities that advance our future fleet towards commercialization, including basic research, applied research, concept formulation studies, design, development, and related testing activities. Research and development costs will consist primarily of equipment, material, and labor costs (including from third-party contractors) for designing the spaceflight system’s structure, spaceflight propulsion system, and flight profiles for our next-generation spaceships and motherships, as well as allocated facilities and other supporting overhead costs.

Research and development expenses decreased from $44.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 to $23.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the settlement of certain disputed vendor invoices, resulting in a reversal of $18.6 million of accrued costs, a $6.2 million decrease in cash compensation and other employee benefit costs primarily due to a reduction in headcount and the completion of the modifications of VSS Unity and VMS Eve in July 2023, and a $2.1 million decrease in materials, consulting, and other costs primarily due to the completion of the VSS Unity and VMS Eve modifications. These decreases were partially offset by an $8.1 million increase in sub-contractor and contract labor costs associated with the development of our next-generation spaceflight vehicles.

Table of Contents

Research and development expenses decreased from $241.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 to $124.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by a $48.2 million decrease in materials, consulting, and other costs primarily due to the completion of the VSS Unity and VMS Eve modifications, a $47.8 million decrease in cash compensation and other employee benefit costs primarily due to the completion of the VSS Unity and VMS Eve modifications and a reduction in headcount, the settlement of certain disputed vendor invoices, resulting in a reversal of $18.6 million of accrued costs, an $8.3 million decrease in other operational costs primarily due to a technology license fee expensed in 2023, and a $4.7 million decrease in stock-based compensation. These decreases were partially offset by an $18.6 million increase in sub-contractor and contract labor costs associated with the development of our next-generation spaceflight vehicles.

Interest expense increased from $9.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 to $9.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Interest expense primarily consists of interest expense and amortization of debt issuance costs related to our convertible senior notes.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. We have accumulated net operating losses at the U.S. federal and state levels. We maintain a full valuation allowance against our net U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets. The income tax expense is primarily related to corporate income taxes for our operations in the United Kingdom, which operates on a cost-plus arrangement.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2024, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $204.7 million and marketable securities of $539.2 million. Our principal sources of liquidity have come from sales of our common stock and offering of convertible senior notes ("2027 Notes").

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $271.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and consisted primarily of $270.3 million of net losses, adjusted for non-cash items, which included stock-based compensation expense of $24.0 million and depreciation and amortization expense of $11.3 million, partially offset by $11.7 million of other non-cash items and $25.0 million of cash used from changes in operating assets and liabilities.

Net cash used in operating activities was $352.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and consisted primarily of $398.4 million of net losses, adjusted for non-cash items, which primarily included stock-based compensation expense of $35.6 million and depreciation and amortization expense of $9.7 million.

Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $116.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and consisted primarily of $729.4 million in proceeds from maturities and calls of marketable securities, partially offset by $527.4 million in purchases of marketable securities and $86.1 million in capital expenditures.

Net cash used in investing activities was $196.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and consisted of $873.0 million in purchases of marketable securities and $25.9 million in capital expenditures, partially offset by $702.3 million in proceeds from maturities and calls of marketable securities.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $106.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and consisted primarily of net cash proceeds from the sale and issuance of common stock of $107.7 million, partially offset by tax withholdings paid for net settled stock-based awards of $1.2 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $475.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and consisted primarily of net cash proceeds from the sale and issuance of common stock of $479.0 million, partially offset by tax withholdings paid for net settled stock-based awards of $3.0 million.

Funding Requirements

We expect our expenditures to fluctuate in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we continue to advance the development of our next-generation spaceflight system and leverage investments in capital expenditures.

As our fleet of spaceships expands, we expect our expenditures to increase as we scale our commercial operations. Specifically, our long-term expenditures will increase as we:

•scale up our manufacturing processes and capabilities to support expanding our fleet with additional spaceships, carrier aircraft and rocket motors in connection with commercialization;

•hire additional personnel in manufacturing operations, testing programs, maintenance operations and guest services as we increase the volume of our spaceflights;

•scale up required operational facilities, such as hangars and warehouses; and

•establish our astronaut campus in New Mexico.

We expect our arrangements with third-party providers to manufacture key subassemblies for our next-generation spaceships and for the design and manufacture of our next-generation carrier aircraft will require significant capital expenditures. Certain estimated amounts in connection with third-party arrangements are subject to future negotiations and cannot be estimated with reasonable certainty.

We believe that our current capital is adequate to sustain our operations for at least the next twelve months. Changing circumstances may cause us to consume capital significantly faster than we currently anticipate, and we may need to spend more money than currently expected because of circumstances beyond our control. While we have completed our initial commercial launch with a single spaceship, we are currently developing our next-generation spaceflight vehicles. We anticipate the costs to manufacture additional vehicles will begin to decrease as we continue to scale up our manufacturing processes and capabilities.

Issuances of Common Stock

In August 2022, we entered into a distribution agency agreement with Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (each, an “Agent” and collectively, the “Agents”) providing for the offer and sale of up to $300 million of shares of our common stock from time to time through the Agents, acting as sales agents, or directly to one or more of the Agents, acting as principal(s), through an "at-the-market offering" program (the "2022 ATM Program").

We completed the 2022 ATM Program in June 2023, selling a total of 3.0 million shares of common stock and generating $300 million in gross proceeds, before deducting $3.0 million in underwriting discounts, commissions and other expenses.

In June 2023, we entered into a distribution agency agreement with the Agents providing for the offer and sale of up to $400 million of shares of our common stock from time to time through the Agents, acting as sales agents, or directly to one or more of the Agents, acting as principal(s), through an "at-the-market offering" program (the "2023 ATM Program").

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we sold 8.8 million shares of common stock under the 2023 ATM Program and generated $108.7 million in gross proceeds, before deducting $1.0 million in underwriting discounts, commissions and other expenses.

As of September 30, 2024, we sold a total of 12.8 million shares of common stock under the 2023 ATM Program, generating $396.2 million in gross proceeds, before deducting $3.9 million in underwriting discounts, commissions and other expenses.

Liquidity Outlook

For at least the next twelve months, we expect our principal demand for funds will be for our ongoing activities described above. We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements primarily through our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities on hand. We believe we will have sufficient liquidity available to fund our business needs, commitments and contractual obligations for the next twelve months.

Beyond the next twelve months, our principal demand for funds will be to sustain our operations, operate our spaceline at Spaceport America in New Mexico, and expand our fleet of spaceships, motherships, and supporting facilities. We expect to generate revenue from our spaceflight program, which is expected to restart in 2026. To the extent this source of capital as well as sources of capital described above are insufficient to meet our needs, we may need to seek additional debt or equity financing.

The commercial launch of our spaceflight program and the anticipated expansion of our fleet have unpredictable costs and are subject to significant risks, uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control, that may affect the timing and magnitude of these anticipated expenditures. Some of these risk and uncertainties are described in more detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K under the heading Item 1A. “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business.”

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Except as set forth in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to our contractual obligations and commitments as described in Part II, Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We believe that the estimates, assumptions and judgments involved in the accounting policies referred to below have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements and, therefore, we consider these to be our critical accounting policies. Accordingly, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

During the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024, there were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates compared to those previously disclosed in "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" included in Part II, Item 7.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

During the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024, there were no significant changes to our market risks compared to those previously disclosed in Part II, Item 7A. "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" included in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
