On May 22, Redwire Corp rose 8.34% in regular trading, trading at $17.07/share, with trading volume of $137 million. The rally was driven by multiple new contract awards and a significant surge in backlog orders.
On the news front, Redwire recently secured a multiyear contract valued at high eight-figures from a NATO country for its Penguin Mk3 uncrewed aerial system as part of a defense modernization program. Additionally, the company received a $15 million follow-on contract from the US Army's 1st Aviation Brigade for its Stalker UAS — the third order from the brigade in eight months, bringing total recent orders to $24.8 million. Redwire was also named prime contractor for the DARPA Otter program. These contract wins have driven a substantial increase in backlog, providing strong revenue visibility and boosting investor confidence.
Within the Aerospace & Defense sector, momentum remained broad-based. Among individual stocks, Intuitive Machines up 7.68%, Rocket Lab up 6.7%, Firefly Aerospace up 5.44%, GE Aerospace up 0.29%, Boeing down 0.79%.
