Intuitive Machines Could Accelerate Space-Bound Tech After Upsized Offering -- Market Talk

Dow Jones12-06

1428 ET - Intuitive Machines has more fuel to speed up its investments in moon-mission technologies after closing on an upsized secondary common stock offering of $10.50 a share, B Riley Securities analysts say. They estimate the offering will net $118 million after green-shoe options are considered. With the capital injection, they say, Intuitive will accelerate spend on its larger Nova D class lunar lander, which could eventually carry a 5,500-pound payload to the moon, as well as the data-relay satellites it's making in contract with NASA. "Backed by a current $316 million backlog, a vibrant new-space economy, strong position, and additional contracts and missions, we expect the company to win," they say. Intuitive Machines slides 4.7% after NASA said it would delay its Artemis campaign to establish a long-term presence on the moon. (emon.reiser@wsj.com)
