Firefly Aerospace trades near all-time lows with strong prospects in the rapidly expanding space sector. The space company boasts a $1.3 billion backlog and a 2026 revenue forecast of $420–$450 million, with major NASA Moon Base contracts secured. Firefly recently completed a secondary offering with selling stockholder activity contributing to the more than 50% decline in the stock.
Firefly Aerospace is expanding into an end-to-end space transportation provider, targeting LEO to cislunar missions with launchers, landers, and transfer vehicles. I raise my price target to $51.68, reflecting high-growth prospects, and believe FLY is undervalued; the stock remains a buy despite near-term losses. FLY's contract momentum is robust, but margin growth hinges on ramping production cadence and disciplined cost management, especially as many contracts currently lack scale.
NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman has framed the current moment in stark terms: “We are in a new space race to the lunar surface, and if we fall behind, we may never catch up.
