Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

Thank you, Paul, and good morning to everyone joining us on the call today. During the Q3, the IA team delivered another strong operational and financial performance, driven by continued organic growth, improved margin realization, and free cash flow conversion. Importantly, beyond our strong financial performance, we made meaningful progress advancing the key strategic priorities that we believe will drive sustainable long-term value creation. These progress points include some recent developments such as the acquisition of Aydin Displays and a new OEM contract with a leading developer of electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft, which represents the first major award based on our Liberty Flight Deck. I will discuss each of these important items later in my remarks. We are excited by the strong momentum in our business, and we are confident we are well-positioned for a solid finish to fiscal 2026 while building momentum into fiscal 2027.

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

I will now discuss Q3 results in greater detail. Despite a difficult prior year comparison, I am pleased to state that we were able to generate approximately 11% revenue growth in the Q3, highlighting what remains a period of increased demand across our commercial aftermarket and business aviation markets. Our disciplined execution, combined with a more favorable business mix and improved operating leverage, contributed to Q3 net income of $4.5 million or $0.25 per diluted share compared to $0.14 a year ago. Gross margin of nearly 52% compared to 36% last year, and adjusted EBITDA growth of approximately 75% from a year ago, highlighting the strength and scalability of our business model.

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

These results reflect our disciplined execution of IA NEXT, our long-term value creation strategy focused on organic growth through innovation and integrated solutions, operational excellence, and disciplined returns-focused capital allocation. I will now provide additional details on our recent progress and the strategic priorities that will drive our performance going forward. In July, we announced the acquisition of Aydin Displays, a leading developer and manufacturer of rugged display technologies serving defense, industrial, and other mission-critical aerospace applications. Aydin is located right up the road from Exton in Birdsboro, PA, and currently supports over 20 military platforms across more than 80 countries. Aydin brings with it a least vertical integrated manufacturing facility. Together with our Exton facility, we will be able to serve our customers more efficiently and further grow our business with the expanded footprint.

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

Aydin enhances our display technology capabilities, bringing us additional engineering talent, proven display technologies, and a respected product portfolio that aligns closely with our integrated avionics solutions. Aydin further strengthens our position in our traditional military avionics markets through exposure to new defense platforms. Additionally, the acquisition expands our military business into naval and ground programs, and also diversifies our business into industrial applications, including the medical instrument market. This is our first acquisition of an operating business and demonstrates the broadening scope of our M&A strategy beyond the product line acquisitions we have historically pursued. Looking ahead, we will continue to target aerospace and defense component product lines and businesses with significant aftermarket potential for proprietary content, above-market growth, strong cash generation, and profitability. Our acquisition pipeline remains very active.

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

As we build the business through accretive acquisitions, we also remain highly focused on continuing to drive organic growth through new product introductions, cross-selling initiatives, and contract wins. To that end, in August, we announced an exciting new contract win with a leading Japanese developer of eVTOL aircraft. Under the agreement, IA will develop the main display and avionics architecture for an eVTOL aircraft program. This is the first OEM program based on our Liberty Flight Deck, highlighting the growing commercial validation of our technology. We expect early engineering work to begin in Q4 2026, with initial production targeted for late 2027. We currently expect to progress towards full production during 2028, support of customers targeted 2028 full-scale commercial launch. The program currently holds a total of over 400 eVTOL orders from partners in Japan and overseas.

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

The advanced air mobility market represents one of the most exciting frontiers in aviation, and our flexible integrated avionics platforms are ideally suited for this market. This program reflects our continued focus on developing next-generation systems that enable safer, smarter, and more capable flight across both traditional and emerging aviation platforms. As previously discussed, we completed the development and certification of the UMS version 2. Production began in June of this year, and Q3 revenues benefited from this product line. The radio management unit contract with L3Harris is at its final certification phase, and production deliveries will commence in Q1 of our fiscal 2027. The KC-767 contract with Boeing is progressing per plan, and production deliveries will commence in Q2 of our fiscal 2027. In addition to progress on our strategic initiatives, we recently made meaningful strides in our corporate rebranding and efforts to expand market visibility.

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

Last October, we announced our rebranding to Innovative Aerosystems, a pivotal step in our broader strategic evolution. Building on that momentum, we are pleased to announce our planned Nasdaq ticker symbol change to IA, better aligning our public market identity with our corporate name, brand, and long-term strategy. The company will cease trading under the Nasdaq ticker symbol ISSC and begin trading under the symbol IA, effective at the U.S. market open on August 18th. To mark this milestone, members of our leadership team will be in New York to ring the Nasdaq closing bell on August 18th. Additionally, on June 29, IA was added as a member of the U.S. Small Cap Russell 2000 Index as part of the 2026 Russell Indexes reconstitution.

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

This is an important milestone in our company's evolution and is a direct reflection of the important progress we have made against our strategic priorities and long-term investments we have been making scale our business. In summary, we are excited by our strong Q3 results, as well as the important progress towards our strategic plan. Based on our strong business momentum and successful execution, we are confident we remain well on track to achieve our long-term $250 million revenue target. As before, we remain focused on our strategy, energized by the opportunities ahead, and committed to creating long-term value for our shareholders in the years ahead. With that, I'll turn the call over to Jeff for his prepared remarks.

Jeff DiGiovanni
CFO at Innovative Aerosystems

Thank you, Shahram, and good morning to all those joining us. Today, I will provide a high-level overview of our Q3 performance, including a discussion of our balance sheet and our liquidity profile at quarter end, and conclude with comments on our outlook for the business, which remains positive given current demand conditions. We generated net revenues of $26.7 million in the Q3, up approximately 11% from the Q3 last year, driven by another quarter of strong organic growth in our commercial aviation and business jet markets, partially offset by an elevated prior year comparison within our F-16 business. As a reminder, in the Q3 of 2025, F-16 revenues were $12.6 million, as there was a pull forward of revenue due to the transition of manufacturing into an Exton facility, as compared to $5.7 million in the current quarter.

Jeff DiGiovanni
CFO at Innovative Aerosystems

Excluding the F-16 revenue from both periods and the new acquisitions, our business grew by over 40% during the Q3. Product sales were $17.5 million during the Q3, up from $16.6 million during the same period last year, driven by strong sales into our commercial and business aviation markets. Service revenues were $9.2 million, up from $7.5 million in the same period last year due to growth in service volumes related to the IRUs and autopilot product lines. Gross profit was $13.8 million during the Q3, up 61% from $8.6 million in the same period last year. The improvement was driven by revenue growth and a favorable sales mix given the strong commercial aftermarket growth. As we have discussed previously, we experienced some lumpiness in the timing of expense recognition during the manufacturing transition from Honeywell that impacted our quarterly results.

Jeff DiGiovanni
CFO at Innovative Aerosystems

Last year's Q3 results were impacted by elevated costs on the F-16 product line, as Honeywell incurred extra expenses in order to expedite the building of safety stock ahead of fully transitioning production to us. As a result, our Q3 gross margin was 51.7%, up from 35.6% last year. This is our fourth consecutive quarter with gross margins of at least 50%. Operating expenses during the Q3 of 2026 were $7.8 million, an increase from $5.1 million during the same period last year. R&D expense increased by approximately $1 million as compared to the prior year. As previously discussed, the company is accelerating investments in R&D to drive long-term growth for the NextGen capabilities that support multiple platforms and end markets. As such, we continue to expect elevated R&D spending to support our growth initiatives.

Jeff DiGiovanni
CFO at Innovative Aerosystems

Net income was $4.5 million, or $0.25 per diluted share during the Q3, compared to net income of $2.4 million or $0.14 per share in the Q3 of last year. Adjusted net income, which includes the same adjustments made to adjusted EBITDA, in addition to an adjustment for the amortization of acquired intangibles, was $6 million for the quarter as compared to $2.9 million last year. Adjusted earnings per diluted share were $0.33 versus $0.16 last year. Adjusted EBITDA was $7.7 million during the Q3, up from $4.4 million in the Q3 of last year due to the solid revenue growth and more favorable revenue mix, partially offset by the continued investments in R&D to drive long-term growth for the NextGen capabilities that support multiple platforms and end markets. Moving on to backlog.

Jeff DiGiovanni
CFO at Innovative Aerosystems

New orders in the Q3 of fiscal 2026 were $22.7 million, and backlog as of June 30th was approximately $83 million, an increase of approximately $5.5 million over the comparable prior year period. Backlog represents the value of contracts and purchase orders less revenue recognized to date on those contracts and purchase orders. The backlog includes committed purchases and excludes potential future sole source production orders under the company's engineering development contract programs. Next, turning to cash. Compared to $10.3 million in the year ago comparable period, driven by our solid operating results and financial discipline. Capital expenditures during the first nine months of 2026 were $3.2 million versus $5.5 million in the year ago period. Free cash flow was $12.3 million during the first three quarters of the year, up from $4.8 million in the previous year.

Jeff DiGiovanni
CFO at Innovative Aerosystems

Our strong free cash flow reflects the capital light nature of our business model, translating into consistently strong conversion rates. At the end of Q3 of 2026, we had total debt of $54.5 million, and cash and cash equivalents of $10.7 million, resulting in net debt of $43.8 million. Net debt increased $21 million from the year ago period, despite more than $35 million deployed towards acquisitions and capital expenditures in support of growth initiatives. As of June 30th, we had total cash and availability under a line of credit of approximately $53.7 million. Our net leverage at the end of the quarter was 1.4 times, despite the recent acquisitions. Our modest leverage, combined with our availability under our expanded credit facility, gives us significant financial flexibility to continue executing on our strategic initiatives.

Jeff DiGiovanni
CFO at Innovative Aerosystems

Before we move into our Q&A session, I'd like to provide our current thoughts around the outlook for the remainder of the fiscal 2026. As we look ahead, we expect to close out our fiscal 2026 on a positive note. We expect to generate Q4 revenue around $28-$30 million, including continued expected organic growth in the contribution from recent acquisitions. That completes our prepared remarks. Operator, we are now ready for the question-and-answer portion of the call.

Operator

Thank you. At this time, we'll be conducting a question-and-answer session. If you'd like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad. A confirmation tone will indicate your line is in the question queue. You may press star two if you'd like to remove your question from the queue. For participants using speaker equipment, it may be necessary to pick up your handset before pressing the star keys. One moment, please, while we poll for questions. Our first question comes from Bobby Brooks with Northland Capital Markets. Your line is now live.

Bobby Brooks
Bobby Brooks
Analyst at Northland Capital Markets

Hey, good morning, team, and thank you for taking my questions. I wanted to unpack the eVTOL program win yesterday. Very exciting news, but wanted to hear more about how this one came about. How long was the sales process attached to it? The last piece, you cite like $50 million total contract value. Is that assuming all 400 plus units are produced, or just how should we be thinking about $50 million?

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

For the, we're having a little bit of a phone issue here. For your first question of how long was the sales process, it's been about a year now that we've been working with this company to finalize agreements and put them in place. In terms of your question about what the value of the contract is, we really can't comment on that right now. It's early on. We know they have about 400 airplanes in the backlog, but that's not the extent of this program. We believe that there is a significant number of aircraft that are going to be produced by this manufacturer.

Jeff DiGiovanni
CFO at Innovative Aerosystems

That contract value is assuming all 400 plus get shipped out.

Bobby Brooks
Bobby Brooks
Analyst at Northland Capital Markets

Got it. That's helpful. Maybe just if you could touch on what the factors that you think led you guys to get this win. Obviously, Liberty Flight Deck, very customizable. I'm guessing that was a piece. Was there anything else important to note there on landing that one?

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

Again, when we look at the cockpit of some of these newer aircrafts that are coming into the market, the customization of their graphics and the cockpit displays is very important and key to the operators. Our system is very flexible, and we can customize it at a very reasonable cost, and that's essentially what made it attractive to this particular company. We are seeing similar interest from a number of aircraft manufacturers. Again, this is the first air mobility aircraft that we have signed a contract with, but it's not the only one that going forward we see in the horizon.

Bobby Brooks
Bobby Brooks
Analyst at Northland Capital Markets

Got it. That's helpful. Just last week, Honeywell Aerospace called out some challenges within their own supply chain, specifically relating to electronic suppliers. My initial thought is this wouldn't be you or affecting you, but just wanted to confirm that and hear anything you might be seeing within your own supply chain.

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

Our supply chain is a little bit different than Honeywell's supply chain, as we don't outsource our circuit cards. We build them in-house. We don't have those kind of issues that they have. Also, the basic principles that we have had in our product development for years has always been that we make sure any component, that we have multiple sources available, and sometimes we even qualify some of the key components, like the LCD, for example. We qualify our system with LCDs from multiple suppliers, multiple manufacturers that make the same size, so we don't get into this trap of supply chain. The landscape of and we see that in the international scope, that there's a lot of changes happening with the political environment that's out there.

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

It's created a lot of issues for the companies that few years ago, they saw opportunities to make a quick cash by outsourcing all of their IP to countries abroad in Southeast Asia, and that's creating some of these supply chain issues for them now because they don't have the capabilities to do it in-house.

Bobby Brooks
Bobby Brooks
Analyst at Northland Capital Markets

That's super helpful, Kolsh, and really appreciate it. Then just last one for me. Jeff, in your prepared remarks, I think you made the comment of excluding the F-16 year-over-year comps and the sales this quarter, and I believe the acquisitions as well, you gave a growth rate. Could you just repeat that?

Jeff DiGiovanni
CFO at Innovative Aerosystems

Yes. What we did was we backed out the F-16 over comparable periods, because keep in mind, this time last year, there was about $12 million of F-16 revenue that got sort of front-loaded because of the buildup of inventory before they changed over the Exton, versus $5 million this quarter. So when you back those two out and the acquisitions revenue, we came in about 40% growth year-over-year.

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

On the organic side.

Jeff DiGiovanni
CFO at Innovative Aerosystems

Correct.

Bobby Brooks
Bobby Brooks
Analyst at Northland Capital Markets

That's very impressive. Congrats on the strong quarter. I'll return to the queue.

Jeff DiGiovanni
CFO at Innovative Aerosystems

Thank you.

Our next question comes from Josh Sullivan with JonesTrading. Your line is now live.

Josh Sullivan
Josh Sullivan
Analyst at JonesTrading

Hey, good morning.

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

Morning, Josh.

Josh Sullivan
Josh Sullivan
Analyst at JonesTrading

Just as you guys execute on your long-term strategy here and the recent acquisitions, how do we think of that 50% gross margin run rate you are doing over the last four quarters here looking ahead?

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

I think that is kind of where we have. Guidance we have given before was somewhere around 45%-50%. Again, quarter per quarter, depending upon the product mix that we sell, those margins are going to vary. But around 50% seems to be where we are heading. On some of these product lines that we acquired as well, the insourcing of the circuit cards is ongoing right now. And we believe that once all of that is completed, that those margins should become more uniform and as well as fall within that 50% gross margin, which is our ultimate goal, is to try to keep it there.

Jeff DiGiovanni
CFO at Innovative Aerosystems

Moreover, we are really focusing on the EBITDA margin, where we have said before, about 25%-30% overall from an EBITDA margin perspective.

Josh Sullivan
Josh Sullivan
Analyst at JonesTrading

Right. Okay. You made a comment about the medical instrument market in your prepared remarks there. Did it just come with the acquisition, or is this an area where we could see some efforts going forward?

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

Aydin is in the mission display business. Some of those applications fall within the medical instrument industry. They do have a small portion of their revenue that comes from that market, and it allows us to seek other opportunities. For example, there is more to medical instruments than just the display side of it. At IA, we have the capabilities to go into that area of the market. We have never done that before. Gaining customers in the medical instrument area would allow us to take a look to see whether there is additional products we can develop that is used by that market. The volumes, obviously, are much higher than the aviation and the aerospace market for those products.

Josh Sullivan
Josh Sullivan
Analyst at JonesTrading

Got it. Then just coming out of Farnborough Airshow, any regulatory dynamics we should be thinking about looking at potential ATC funding or altimeters or anything from NextGen FAA we should be thinking about as it relates to opportunities at ISSC, or sorry, rather, IA strategy?

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

Farnborough was interesting. The mandate that is coming out of the FAA for the 5G-friendly radar altimeters is coming up. We do not have a radar altimeter in our product portfolio. That does not benefit us as much. But we continue looking at teaming as well as acquisitions, and we look at product lines that have a good future within them, and radar altimeter is one of the product lines that it is on our acquisition strategy.

Josh Sullivan
Josh Sullivan
Analyst at JonesTrading

Great. Thank you for the time.

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

Thank you.

Jeff DiGiovanni
CFO at Innovative Aerosystems

Thank you.

Operator

Our next question comes from Greg Palm with Craig-Hallum. Your line is now live.

Greg Palm
Greg Palm
Analyst at Craig-Hallum

Yeah. Good morning, guys, and congrats on a lot of positive news. I wanted to maybe start because the 40% organic on a more apples-to-apples comparison was pretty impressive, and it can be hard for some of us to delineate the growth drivers. I do not know, based on end market exposure and the various programs, what are the biggest drivers of that? How much of that is just you are tied to some end markets that are growing versus some of these new programs or product lines that are starting to ramp?

Jeff DiGiovanni
CFO at Innovative Aerosystems

Sure. I think with the aging fleet, you are seeing services go up, in terms of replacements as well as just repairs. So that is where we saw one growth there in the commercial side, as well as business aviation. This was the quarter we started shipping UMS2, so we actually have the growth in there from a UMS2 perspective year-over-year, which I would say the business aviation was a little down last year, and you are seeing that pick up, mainly with the UMS2 for that product line. But you are seeing growth drivers in both business aviation, a little bit in the military as well this quarter, besides the F-16, and then we saw mostly in the commercial air transport, again, both in the product sales as well as services-related activities.

Greg Palm
Greg Palm
Analyst at Craig-Hallum

Yep. Okay. As it relates to military, I think F-16 was either at or maybe even above the higher end of kind of what you had talked about. I think F-16 specifically was up significantly versus last quarter. Just help us understand, are you ramping that up a little bit faster than what you thought? Was there anything kind of one-time issue in the quarter?

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

Last quarter, we were down on the F-16, and part of that was because of one of the product lines. We have two product lines that we acquired for the F-16. One is the digital flight control computer, and the other one is the mission display generator. The mission display generator transition completed in last quarter, more towards the end of the quarter, which limited the number of deliveries we could do on that product line. So, this quarter was the Q1 that we did. The Q3 was the Q1 that we had full production for the whole period of three months. So, we are hitting that kind of $5 million range per quarter that we think is sustainable long-term.

Greg Palm
Greg Palm
Analyst at Craig-Hallum

Okay. Fair enough. I wanted to shift gears to the press release last night. I thought that was interesting. So maybe a couple of questions related to that. The $50 million in contracted value, I just want to be clear, Jeff, you said that was based on the 400 orders that this customer has. So hypothetically, what would happen if this customer got and made thousands of these aircrafts? I mean, are you going to see a pretty significant increase versus that? I mean, are you sole source on this program?

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

Yeah. We're going to be part of the certification of the baseline of the equipment. Typically, you become sole source on it. Again, the $50 million in value was a kind of a nominal number. But sitting at this end of it, you really don't know what the final thing is going to look like. I remember when we did the system for Pilatus for the PC-24, our expectations were 30 ships a year, and that's what we told the Street, because that's what they told us. We're delivering close to 60 ships a year now on that platform. This initial program that we have right now over the next year, it's really an engineering development program, to configure the system to everything that their requirements are. Once the production begins, I believe we will see growth in their volume.

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

It is an impressive platform compared to other companies that have done similar air mobility aircraft.

Greg Palm
Greg Palm
Analyst at Craig-Hallum

Yep. Okay. As it relates to this, how big of an opportunity is that? Whether it's air mobility, eVTOL opportunity versus some of the other kind of newer aircrafts. Where are you seeing in terms of your pipeline, the most opportunities for Liberty?

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

I think the air mobility systems is where eventually the industry is going. The opportunities are huge. I don't know how to put a number on it, but they're significant because when you listen to the number of aircrafts that are talked about are significant to the point where you imagine where all these airplanes going to fly. But that's the future that we're looking at. The market is significantly large and there's number of players in there. Honeywell has systems for Air Mobility Command. So does Rockwell Collins, so does Thales. Again, what it comes to is how quickly, how nimble are you? How quickly can you modify your system to work on another platform? That's where we see our advantage in this market.

Greg Palm
Greg Palm
Analyst at Craig-Hallum

Yeah. Well, it seems like a pretty compelling new opportunity for you. All right, I will leave it there. Best of luck. Thanks.

Shahram Askarpour
CEO at Innovative Aerosystems

Thank you.

Operator

We have reached the end of the question and answer session. I would now like to turn the call back over to management for closing comments.
