On May 29, Firefly Aerospace fell 5.04% in pre-market trading, trading at $46.75/share, with trading volume of approximately $36.83 million.
On the news front, the company announced the pricing of its public offering at $48 per share, comprising 12 million shares in total — 4 million newly issued shares and 8 million shares sold by existing shareholders — with underwriters holding an additional 1.8 million share overallotment option. With total shares outstanding of approximately 160 million, the potential supply of up to 13.8 million shares continues to weigh on the stock.
The current price has fallen below the $48 offering price, indicating the market is still digesting the dilution effect. This extends a three-session decline since the offering was first announced. While the company recently secured a $75 million NASA subcontract under the Artemis program for lunar drone delivery using its Elytra spacecraft, near-term selling pressure from the equity offering has overwhelmed the positive fundamental catalyst.
