What To Know: Sidus Space ( SIDU ) reported earnings per share (EPS) of 99 cents, an improvement from a loss of $6.85 in the same period last year.

The company's revenue decreased to $927 570, down 32.29% from $1.37M year-over-year. The gross profit margin dropped to a negative 91%, primarily due to higher costs associated with the depreciation of its first satellite asset and delays in satellite contract payments.
