LUNR

HOUSTON, July 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intuitive Machines, Inc. (Nasdaq: LUNR) (“Intuitive Machines”) (“Company”) announced today that it will release its financial results for the second quarter of 2026 on Thursday, August 13, 2026, before the market opens. Following the news release, the Company will host a conference call the same day at 8:30 am ET to discuss the results.

LUNR, GLDG and BCDA have been added to the Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell) List on July 28, 2026.

Rocket Lab and Intuitive Machines expand launch, spacecraft and lunar mission capabilities as growing space investments create new long-term opportunities.

LUNR expands lunar mission operations by advancing planning, navigation and surface capabilities to support future Moon missions.

The space economy is transitioning from science project to revenue-generating industry, and July has produced a sharp pullback across the sector leaders.

Intuitive Machines is re-rated as a buy, driven by record backlog, accelerating revenue, and continued NASA and defense contract wins. LUNR's backlog surged to over $1 billion, fueled by the Lanteris acquisition and $428.9 million in new multi-year contracts. Q1 revenue reached a record $186.7 million, with diversified streams across commercial, civil, and national security sectors.

Intuitive Machines' 36.5% monthly drop raises questions as NASA-backed lunar growth prospects are weighed against losses, execution risks and premium valuation.

Shares of space stocks are selling off across the board midday Monday, with the group's leaders giving back a chunk of last week's sharp gains.

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.
