York Space Systems (YSS) Stock Analysis & Forecast
Oct 12 close
$6.83−0.28 (−3.9%)
Gekko Brief
AI summaryOct 12 closeYork Space Systems this week drew a wave of securities class action reminders from multiple law firms, with a lead plaintiff deadline set for October 30, 2026 tied to the company's January 2026 IPO and the period between January 29 and May 11, 2026. Alongside this legal overhang, York was also awarded two Space Force Space Data Network task orders, covering multi-vendor interoperability and Space Exchange Point integration planning.
Shares closed at $6.83, down 3.9% on the day, sitting well below the 50-day moving average of $9.42 and near the 52-week low of $6.67, with one-month, three-month and six-month returns of -13.3%, -67.9% and -79.8% respectively. The GekkoIndex reads 68.5, placing YSS in the Accumulation zone, while the stock trades 40.5% below the Gekko Fair Value of $11.48.
Over the next 20 trading days, the main scheduled catalyst is the next earnings report on 2 December 2026, which falls outside this window; the prior report on 13 August 2026 showed an EPS miss against estimate with a -1% reaction, and no quarter in the trailing four has produced a beat. No insider, Congress or unusual options activity is recorded in their respective 90-day and 30-day windows. Analyst coverage spans 13 firms, with 5 at buy and 8 at hold, and a consensus target of $14.85. The pending litigation deadline of October 30, 2026 remains a date worth noting alongside the stock's elevated typical daily and 20-day move of 8.3% and 24.5%.

Last earnings call, Aug 13, 2026 AI summary
- What they said
- York Space Systems reported a solid Q2 2026: revenue of $92.5M (up 10% YoY), backlog of $592M, an identified pipeline exceeding $11.5B and potential unawarded contracts of $1.85B. Management highlighted 21 launched satellites during the quarter, eight contract wins year-to-date with an 88% win rate, two recent task order wins and an expanded national security customer base. Gross margin improved to 24% (up 13 percentage points YoY) driven by post-launch operations and newer, higher-margin programs; contribution margin rose to 42%. The company completed two acquisitions since the last call (including ALL.SPACE) and noted those will add revenue and backlog (to be reflected in Q3). Management reiterated the strategic benefits of inventory build to shorten delivery times and improve win probability. They discussed the government shift from ad-hoc large RFPs to IDIQs, which delays near-term revenue conversion but creates a pipeline that can accelerate with task orders in 2027 and beyond. During Q&A, management was upbeat about wins and pipeline but acknowledged supply chain constraints and timing shifts that pushed some revenue from 2026 into 2027. Financial commentary emphasized continued mid-20% gross margins for the remainder of 2026 and that the company is monitoring vendor/supply chain risks.
- Guidance
- Management expects gross margin to remain in the mid-20% range for the balance of 2026. They did not provide explicit 2026 revenue or 2027 financial guidance on this call, but stated some revenue was pushed into 2027 due to IDIQ timing and supply chain constraints. No 2027 margin guidance was provided.
- Risks flagged
- Supply chain issues causing satellite deliveries and associated revenue to shift into 2027; change in U.S. government procurement to IDIQs that delays near-term revenue recognition (timing risk); dependency on government budgets and the timing of task orders; limited disclosure around specific vendor risks; integration risks from recent acquisitions (e.g., ALL.SPACE).
