Is Sidus Space, Inc. (NASDAQ:SIDU) a buy in 2026?
Lean no. The Compass would trim Sidus Space, Inc. here, not add.
Real satellite IP, real customers, but a $501M market cap on a company burning $20M a year with negative 146% gross margins is fantasy pricing.
Where SIDU is headed
Sidus has built something genuinely interesting in Merritt Island. LizzieSat is in orbit, the FeatherEdge edge processor is real silicon doing real radiation-tolerant compute, and the Orlaith AI stack pairs that hardware with onboard inference at a moment when every defense and intelligence customer wants tasking decisions made in space rather than on the ground. The 50.7% revenue growth is the proof point that the small-sat-as-a-service pitch is landing with paying customers, and a vertically integrated facility doing precision machining, additive manufacturing, and environmental testing in one building is a genuine moat against the dozens of PowerPoint sat companies that still outsource everything.
