| Mkt Cap / Valuation | — | $61 billion post-money (a further round in talks at a reported, unconfirmed ~$100B was still open as of July 2026) | — |

| Last raise / Last filing | $650M equity + $50M debt from Stifel Bank (2026-04-28) | $5.0B (2026-05-13) | over $100M (2026-04-07) |
| Top risks | Effectively a single-customer company — every listed contract is US Space Force or SDA, with no meaningful commercial revenue to offset a budget shift.; Capital intensity with undisclosed valuation — $650M raised in one round plus $50M debt and headcount quadrupling to 1,000 by 2028, with no disclosed valuation or revenue. | Golden Dome is a politically defined programme; a re-scoping under a future administration would strand Anduril's space investment thesis.; The $61B valuation (and a rumored, unclosed ~$100B round) rests on unaudited, undisclosed financials with no SEC reporting obligation. | No full-scale Otter has flown — every government contract listed ($37.5M, $52.5M, $54.5M) is for a vehicle class with zero flight history; only sub-scale Pups have flown.; Docking with uncooperative targets is demonstrably hard — Otter Pup 1 suffered an anomaly, and Otter Pup 2 lost its original docking partner mid-mission. |
| Next catalyst | Kronos delivery (2026-2027) | Golden Dome SBI down-select (2026-2027) | Otter Pup 2 docking attempt with Gilmour Space's ElaraSat (2026) |
