Redwire Corp., a small-cap player in the Aerospace & Defense sector, has experienced a significant uptick in its stock price, gaining 10.79% on February 26, 2026. The stock reached an intraday high of USD 9.79, marking a notable moment in its trading activity. Despite this day's performance, Redwire Corp. has faced challenges over the past year, with a decline of 34.14%, contrasting sharply with the S&P 500's gain of 12.95% during the same period. The company's financial metrics reveal a complex picture; it has reported negative operating cash flow and a return on capital employed (ROCE) of -45.35%. Additionally, the debt-equity ratio stands at a high 33.69%, indicating a leveraged position. In the year-to-date performance, Redwire Corp. has shown resilience with a 25.66% increase, outperforming the S&P 500's modest 0.94% gain. However, the stock's long-term performance remains a concern, with a 5-year decline of 8.35%. As the company navigates its financial landscape, today's activity highlights the volatility and potential within the aerospace and defense market.
