Release – Kratos Awarded Contract to Deliver OneWeb Spectrum Monitoring System for its LEO Satellite Constellation
Kratos Awarded Contract to Deliver OneWeb Spectrum Monitoring System for its LEO Satellite Constellation
Research, News, and Market Data on Kratos Defense & Security Solutions
The system will monitor the spectrum used between its global network of Satellite Network Portal (SNP) gateways and its constellation of LEO satellites. The OneWeb Spectrum Monitoring System (OSMS) will help staff monitor, manage and analyze this spectrum, the radio frequencies that satellite signals travel over.
“With our fleet of LEO satellites that will deliver on our mission to provide space connectivity around the world, it is critical for us to monitor and manage the RF spectrum to ensure that we are delivering on our service performance targets,” stated
The OSMS will incorporate Kratos’ industry-leading, integrated spectrum monitoring capabilities to enable real-time management of Radio Frequency (RF) usage and to monitor compliance with frequency transmission regulations. As part of the contract, Kratos is responsible for designing, developing, and installing the OSMS and integrating the system with OneWeb’s ground segment.
At the heart of the OSMS LEO monitoring solution, Kratos will deploy a big data processing, storage and analytics platform for satellite operations. The system will retrieve, store, and access the spectrum traces captured at each antenna during a satellite pass. The RF data across all gateway sites will be consolidated through the OSMS to enable OneWeb’s Network Operations staff to centrally monitor, review,s and analyze the spectrum.
“The OSMS is being built to address the need to monitor very fast-moving LEO satellites and scale to the needs of OneWeb’s fleet of satellites. The Kratos technology used in the OSMS can retrieve, process, and store the high volume of data at almost one gigabit per second on the ground,” explained

“We are pleased that SES has partnered with
“These next-generation gateway antennas are especially important for customers who want to land data at their own site whilst being able to tap into the differentiated O3b mPOWER connectivity services. For our government customers, this is especially attractive since we have a compelling offering with our low-latency, high-throughput services delivered in a secure environment as if they were using their own dedicated satellite network. This is made possible, in part, due to these gateways that are now more resilient, lighter and easier to install,” said
Comtech’s antenna systems that can be used with the O3b mPOWER satellite constellation range in size from the 5.5-meter gateway intended for telemetry, tracking and control (TT&C) to 2.4-meter antennas for enterprise and government use. Compared with existing O3b gateways, Comtech’s dual-drive X/Y antennas offer huge advantages over traditional Azimuth/Elevation systems, to include precision tracking, multi-orbit support and easier installations. Comtech’s carbon fiber reflector is a light weight, rigid structure, and stable over extreme temperature ranges, which is critical for Ka-band surface accuracy. The lighter-weight reflector design utilizes smaller drive motors, experiences less component stress for longer life and lower power consumption during the constant trace/retrace operation needed for non-geostationary satellite tracking, resulting in overall lower capital and operational costs.
O3b mPOWER is the successor to SES’s first-generation O3b MEO constellation. The software-driven communications system is capable of delivering connectivity services from tens of megabits to multiple gigabits per second. It is scheduled for launch in the coming months and expected to be operational by end of calendar year 2022.

Research, News, and Market Data on CoreCivic
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., April 11, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CoreCivic, Inc. (NYSE:CXW) today released its 2021
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Report demonstrating how the company stayed committed to its mission to better the public good through the second year of the COVID-19 pandemic. This is the fourth annual report issued by CoreCivic since 2019.
The report details how CoreCivic continued to deliver life-changing reentry programming in 2021 by building relationships with community partners that helped bring educational and vocational training opportunities to residents, including online learning opportunities to keep everyone safe from COVID-19 transmission. These opportunities will help residents succeed in life after incarceration.
The report also shares CoreCivic’s newly adopted human rights policy and goals that will guide the company’s operations in the coming years. It shares how CoreCivic collaborated with community stakeholders and launched new partnerships with groups like the Frederick Douglass Project for Justice to facilitate meetings between residents and members of their communities. It also shows how CoreCivic delivered innovative solutions to government partners like a renewable three-year lease agreement with New Mexico enabling the state to assume operations of the Northwest New Mexico Correctional Center while CoreCivic maintains the facility.
Finally, the report details CoreCivic’s environmental impact and efforts to reduce waste, as well as water and energy usage. It also details CoreCivic’s new diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) roadmap for how the company will create a culture of understanding among employees and create a pipeline of diverse leadership talent so the company at all levels reflects its employees and the communities where it serves.
“Our company stayed strong through the tiresome reality of a stubborn, resurgent pandemic to deliver our mission to better the public good,” said Damon Hininger, president and CEO, CoreCivic. “I’m proud to lead a critically important enterprise like CoreCivic and fortunate to draw energy and inspiration from our people. Our team defines and practices flexibility and innovation each day. You witness it at the facilities, in the classrooms, at the meeting tables, around the neighborhoods we call home, and in the back office.”
The report also highlights how CoreCivic’s cumulative ESG efforts were recognized by Newsweek naming the company to its list of America’s Most Responsible Companies in 2021.
“I’m pleased with our progress in a difficult year, and I’m grateful for my colleagues who take our mission to better the public good to the forefront of all they do,” Hininger said. “I admire their resilience. I admire their emphasis on safety. I love the focus on second chances.”
Other topics discussed in the report include:
- CoreCivic’s nimble pandemic strategy, which led to an aggressive education campaign to help staff and residents understand the effectiveness of life-saving COVID-19 vaccines
- The launch of reentry programs at CoreCivic facilities across the country, including a culinary arts program at Lake Erie Correctional Institution in Ohio, a computer coding program at Red Rock Correctional Center in Colorado, and a carpentry program at Crowley County Correctional Facility in Colorado
- Community networking programs to help residents, like those at Cheyenne Transitional Center in Wyoming, connect with community members and match them with jobs
- The CoreCivic Foundation’s commitment of $700,000 to organizations that are expanding access to education, prioritizing criminal justice reform, and supporting minority-owned businesses
- The CoreCivic Foundation’s support for the Thurgood Marshall College Fund to bolster research by Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) working to identify barriers to opportunity in criminal justice, education, and economic mobility
- The CoreCivic Foundation’s support for the Coalition to Back Black Businesses
- CoreCivic’s multi-year partnership with the Prison Fellowship’s Warden Exchange Program, a residency and online professional development program that enables wardens to share reentry best practices and discuss problem-solving in a peer group format
- CoreCivic’s advocacy for state and federal legislation aimed at reducing recidivism and removing barriers to reentry for returning citizens — including 700 letters of support for 24 bills covering reentry policy areas in Connecticut, Iowa, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Carolina, Washington, and the U.S. Congress

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.
Refining Model. We had an opportunity to speak with Vectrus management recently regarding our model for 2022. While we believe our annual numbers to be reasonable, we assumed a more historical split between first half and second half results than is likely to happen in 2022 as the Kwajalein and Ft. Benning contracts results in a more back weighted year. As a result, we have refined our model to reflect this.
Updated Guidance. Our full year 2022 estimates remain unchanged: $1.86 billion of revenue, $86 million of adjusted EBITDA, EPS of $4.07, and adjusted EPS of $4.74. The quarterly cadence does change as we moved $38 million of revenue from the first half of the year into the second half. This results in 1Q22 revenue of $427 now, down from $445 million, and EPS of $0.60, down from a prior $0.73 …

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., March 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Vectrus, Inc. (NYSE:VEC) announced fourth quarter and full-year 2021 financial results.
“This year, Vectrus continued its strong momentum in the converged market, and our financial results for the fourth quarter and full-year 2021 underscore the successful execution of our growth strategy with year-on-year total and organic revenue growth of approximately 28% and 10%, respectively,” said Chuck Prow, Chief Executive Officer of Vectrus. “Our team showcased its agility to meet the unique needs of our clients by successfully supporting several important missions, including Pacific Defender, a major contingency task order in INDOPACOM, supporting the Afghanistan refugee mission to support the Non-Combatant Evacuation Operation as well as supporting the Department of Defense with the establishment of a water supply system for military housing at Red Hill, Hawaii. Additionally, we demonstrated our ability to support operations of larger size and scope by phasing in all the CENTCOM task orders under the LOGCAP V Contract. These task orders provide substantial revenue visibility for the next several years.”
“This year, we also won the five-year, $44 million AFCAP V Saudi Foreign Military Sales Task Order, our first win in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, to provide base operation support to the Air Force, and we finished the year by winning the Fort Benning Logistics Support task order, a five-year, $250 million award under the Enhanced Army Global Logistics Enterprise (EAGLE) IDIQ Contract. Fort Benning is one of the DoD’s Power Projection Platforms, that supports the Army’s ability to strategically deploy its high priority active and reserve component units. This award builds on our existing EAGLE task order to support the Logistics Readiness Center at Fort Bragg, another power projection platform, that has recently supported the deployment of troops to the European Area of Operation.”
“Subsequent to the fourth quarter, Vectrus was selected to complete the final phases of application development for the 5G Naval Base Coronado Smart Warehouse. This effort is part of the DoD’s $600 million 5G experimentation and testing initiative, originally awarded in 2020. Vectrus successfully demonstrated a Converged Environment solution, addressing NAVSUP operational challenges through the implementation of advanced technology applications. The Smart Warehouse is a continued demonstration of our Converged Environment portfolio of mission essential solutions, which integrate base operations support, supply chain and logistics, IT and network operations, engineering and digital integration, and security, to help increase efficiency, reduce costs, improve readiness and cybersecurity, and strengthen national security. We look forward to bringing next-generation efficiencies to the naval logistics operations.”
Prow concluded, “All of these impressive accomplishments are a testament to our teams’ 24/7 dedication to our clients and supporting their critical missions.”
Fourth Quarter 2021 Results
“Our fourth quarter and full-year 2021 financial results demonstrate the resilience of our business model and commitment to maintaining a strong balance sheet,” said Susan Lynch, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “We are pleased to finish 2021 in a strong financial position, with organic revenue growth and significant cash generation, and we are excited to build on this momentum in 2022.”
Fourth quarter revenue was $419 million up 18% year-on-year as compared to the same period last year. Revenue grew year-on-year as a result of the company’s two acquisitions on December 31, 2020. Organic revenue grew by $3.2 million, or 0.9%, reflecting the transition to LOGCAP V Kuwait and Iraq task orders and completion of certain programs, including the Afghanistan Evacuation Operation.
Operating income was $10.0 million or 2.4% margin. M&A and integration related expenses were $1.0 million and the amortization of acquired intangible assets were $2.5 million. Adjusted operating income1 was $13.6 million or 3.2% margin. EBITDA1 was $14.3 million, or 3.4% margin. Adjusted EBITDA1 was $15.3 million, with a margin of 3.6%, compared to $17.9 million and 5.0% in 2020. The year-on-year margin was impacted by the phase-in of new awards, program completions, contract mix and considerable material and pass through content which carries a lower margin.
Fully diluted EPS was $0.63, reflecting the above-mentioned M&A and integration-related costs. Adjusted diluted EPS1 for the fourth quarter was $0.90 as compared to $1.25 in 2020. Adjusted diluted EPS1 was impacted by lower margins in the quarter, higher interest expense due to the company’s two acquisitions in December 2020 and higher depreciation expense.
Full-Year 2021 Results
Full-year revenue was $1.784 billion, up 28% year-on-year. Organic revenue increased 10% in 2021, driven by new contract wins, base expansion, and phase-ins. The Company reported operating income of $62.0 million, with an operating margin of 3.5%, Adjusted operating income1 was $76.6 million, with a 4.3% margin, which is an improvement from $52.2 million and 3.7% from the prior year. The increase in operating income resulted from the acquisitions of Zenetex and HHB and improved program performance throughout the year.
Full-year EBITDA1 was $78.6 million and a margin of 4.4%. Adjusted EBITDA1 was $83.1 million with a 4.7% margin.
Full-year diluted EPS was $3.86, favorably impacted by the recognition of tax credits from prior years. Adjusted diluted EPS1 for 2021 was $4.77, as compared to $3.36 in 2020.
Cash provided by operating activities for the year were $61.3 million, compared to $64.1 million in 2020. Cash flow in the prior year benefitted from the CARES Act by $13.2 million. Lynch continued, “our strong cash generation is due to efficient collections and working capital management on programs. Excluding the prior year benefit of the CARES Act payroll tax deferrals, year-to-date cash flow from operations improved 20% over last year.”
During the year, Vectrus lowered its debt balance by $73.6 million resulting in an ending balance of $105.4 million. Cash at year-end was $38.5 million down from $66.9 million. Total liquidity as of December 31, 2021, was more than $200 million. Total consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA1 (total leverage ratio) was 1.20x.
Total backlog as of December 31, 2021 was $5 billion and funded backlog was $1 billion. The trailing twelve-month book-to-bill was 1.0x.
