Virgin Galactic Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SPCE) (“Virgin Galactic” or the “Company”) today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025 and provided a business update.

“We’ve reached an exciting stage in our SpaceShip program, with our production checklist growing shorter by the week and our first commercial spaceflight continuing to track for Q4 2026,” said Michael Colglazier, Chief Executive Officer of Virgin Galactic. “As we continue to achieve program milestones, it’s great to see our teams planning for the start of commercial operations next year. We expect most of our current customers will take their space journey during 2027, as our launch vehicle’s bolstered flight rate capability, combined with the quick turn time expected from our first two SpaceShips, should allow us to ramp spaceflight capacity fairly quickly.”

The following forward-looking statements reflect our expectations for the fourth quarter of 2025 as of November 13, 2025 and are subject to substantial uncertainty.

In addition to the Company’s results prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), the Company is also providing certain non-GAAP financial measures. A discussion regarding the use of non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation of such measures to the most directly comparable GAAP information is presented later in this press release.

Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release references certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including non-GAAP total operating expenses, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow. The Company defines non-GAAP total operating expenses as total operating expenses other than stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, and legal settlement expense. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and legal settlement expense. The Company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. None of these non-GAAP financial measures is a substitute for or superior to measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP.

The Company believes that presenting these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information to investors about the Company in understanding and evaluating its operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects, and allowing for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics used by its management in financial and operational-decision making. However, there are a number of limitations related to the use of non-GAAP measures and their nearest GAAP equivalents. For example, other companies may calculate non-GAAP measures differently, or may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore any non-GAAP measures the Company uses may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

A reconciliation of total operating expenses to non-GAAP total operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, is set forth below (in thousands):

A reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, is set forth below (in thousands):

The following table reconciles net cash used in operating activities to free cash flow for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively (in thousands):

The Company has not provided a reconciliation of forward-looking free cash flow to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures because such a reconciliation is not available without unreasonable efforts, due to the variability of these items and the fact that there is substantial uncertainty associated with predicting any future adjustments that we may make to our GAAP financial measures in calculating our non-GAAP financial measures.
