Backlog was $619.7M at September 30, 2026, up from $411.2M at year-end 2025; 50% of $501.7M in remaining performance obligations is expected within 12 months.
Defense Tech had $46.8M of work in process and finished goods; conversion to deliveries depends on completing products and obtaining required licenses.
