| Business Combinations | 5. Business Combinations MTI acquisition On April 2, 2025 (the “MTI Acquisition Date”), the Company, through its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary Karman Parent LLC (“Karman Parent”), acquired all the issued and outstanding membership interests and other equity interests of MTI Metal Technology Inc., pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement in exchange for cash consideration (the “ MTI Acquisition”). The acquisition of MTI expands the Company’s capabilities in advanced materials and is expected to strengthen its position in the strategic missile defense market through enhanced product offerings and customer relationships. The MTI Acquisition met the requirements to be considered a business combination under ASC 805. The assets and liabilities acquired, effected for adjustments to reflect fair values assigned to assets purchased and liabilities assumed, and results of operations, are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements from the MTI Acquisition Date. The Company recorded the acquired tangible and identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date as required under ASC 805. The MTI Acquisition was funded with borrowings from the Company’s term note under its Citibank credit agreement and was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The fair value of the total purchase consideration transferred was $82.3 million. The MTI Acquisition does not have any contingent consideration arrangements. The Company also incurred $1.4 million of direct acquisition-related expenses, recognized as general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. No acquisition-related expenses were recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. The accounting for the MTI Acquisition was completed during the quarter ended March 31, 2026. The following table sets forth the allocation of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. No material adjustments were recognized during the measurement period.
The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets was recorded as goodwill and is fully deductible for tax purposes. The components of goodwill do not qualify as a separately recognized intangible asset. Below is a summary of the intangible assets acquired in the MTI Acquisition:
The fair value for know-how was determined using the relief from royalty method and the fair values of customer relationships and backlog was determined using the multi-period excess earnings method (“MPEEM”). In total, the intangible assets acquired subject to amortization have a weighted average useful life of 11.0 years. Supplemental pro forma results of operations have not been presented because they were not material to the condensed consolidated results of operations. ISP acquisition On May 28, 2025 (the “ISP Acquisition Date”), the Company completed its acquisition of Industrial Solid Propulsion (“ISP”) pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “ISP Agreement”), under which the Company purchased all issued and outstanding equity interests in ISP and related real estate of ISP, for approximately $50 million in cash and 147,842 shares of common stock of the Company and a $5.0 million potential earnout (the “Earnout”), subject to satisfaction or waiver of certain customary closing adjustments. The ISP Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties. The acquisition of ISP expands the Company’s capabilities in small-diameter solid propellant and energetic propulsion systems, strengthening its position in the UAS and missile defense markets through proprietary technologies and integrated manufacturing expertise. The ISP Acquisition met the requirements to be considered a business combination under ASC 805. The assets and liabilities acquired, effected for adjustments to reflect fair values assigned to assets purchased and liabilities assumed, and results of operations, are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements from the ISP Acquisition Date. The Company recorded the acquired tangible and identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date as required under ASC 805. The ISP Acquisition was funded with incremental borrowings from the Company’s term note under its Citibank credit agreement and was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The fair value of the total purchase consideration transferred was $58.6 million, of which $49.0 million represents cash consideration, $5.7 million represents the fair value of the equity consideration as of the ISP Acquisition Date and $3.9 million represents the fair value of the Earnout, which was recorded in other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The earnout liability was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation under a risk-neutral framework, based on the average present value of the simulated earnout payments. The Earnout provides for a cash payment equal to $5.0 million to the seller of ISP, contingent upon the achievement of specified Adjusted EBITDA threshold for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, as defined in the ISP Agreement. As of December 31, 2025, the Company determined that the Adjusted EBITDA target was not achieved and therefore will not be paid. Accordingly, the Earnout no longer had any value, and the related contingent consideration liability was reduced to zero as of December 31, 2025, with the change in fair value recognized as other income on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company also incurred $1.2 million of direct acquisition-related expenses, recognized as general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. No acquisition-related expenses were recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. The following table sets forth the allocation, as of June 30, 2026, of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the ISP Acquisition:

The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets was recorded as goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill reflects expected synergies from the combined operations, specialized processes and procedures, and the assembled workforce. The components of goodwill do not qualify as a separately recognized intangible asset. Below is a summary of the intangible assets acquired in the Five Axis Acquisition:
The fair value for the customer relationships and backlog was determined using the MPEEM. In total, the intangible assets acquired subject to amortization have a weighted average useful life of 13.0 years.

Seemann acquisition On February 3, 2026 (the “Seemann Acquisition Date”), the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, completed the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Seemann Composites, LLC and Materials Sciences LLC (together, the “Company Group”) pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 31, 2025 (the “Seemann Acquisition”), for approximately (i) $215.9 million in cash and (ii) shares of common stock of the Company with an aggregate value equal to $17.0 million, of which $1.7 million was withheld to cover the Company Group’s income tax liability. The Company Group provides advanced composite systems and materials solutions for maritime defense applications. The Company believes the acquisition of Seemann and MSC expands its capabilities in the maritime defense end market and strengthens its portfolio supporting high-priority, funded U.S. Navy programs. The Seemann Acquisition met the requirements to be accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805. The Company Group’s assets and liabilities have been adjusted for preliminary estimates of fair value, and its results of operations have been included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements from the Seemann Acquisition Date. The purchase price was allocated to tangible and identifiable intangible assets based on their estimated fair values at the Seemann Acquisition Date.

The Seemann Acquisition does not have any contingent consideration arrangements. The Company incurred $4.0 million of direct acquisition-related expenses, of which $2.0 million was recognized in the prior year and the remaining $2.0 million was recognized as on the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. As the Company finalizes the estimation of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, additional adjustments may be recorded during the measurement period (a period not to exceed 12 months from the acquisition date). The following table reflects the revised preliminary acquisition date fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the Seemann Acquisition:
The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets was recorded as goodwill and is fully deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill reflects expected synergies from the combined operations, specialized processes and procedures, and the assembled workforce. The components of goodwill do not qualify as a separately recognized intangible asset. Goodwill is allocated to the Company’s single reporting segment.
