Rocket Lab exceeded expectations as it closed the year on a strong note, and its medium‑lift Neutron rocket is now slated for a maiden flight at the end of 2026. The company reported fourth‑quarter revenue of $180 million, a 36% increase year‑on‑year, signaling robust top‑line growth. 

Profitability metrics also showed improvement: net loss per share narrowed to -$0.09, a smaller loss than previously reported and a sign of strengthening operating leverage. 

The results underscore accelerating commercial activity for the company and set a clear target for Neutron’s first launch in late 2026. #RocketLab #Neutron #spaceindustry #FiatNews
