- Record backlog. Backlog of

The largest deployment in company history, renewal prospects, and how the lease-like model layers revenue across a buoy’s life.- Speed as a differentiator. A WAM-V delivered five weeks from order and what that pace demands of inventory and fleet readiness.
- Defense and international momentum. The US government’s WAM-V selection, CMMC Level 2 compliance, and converting European engagement into contracts.
- Margins, capital, and milestones. The path toward the 35–55% gross margin range, funding plans for growth, and FY27 milestones that would demonstrate execution.
