AI Summary
Q4 2025

Revenue/Profit: 2025 revenue was $122.8 million (up 25% vs 2024) and Bridger delivered positive net income of $4.1 million for the year after a net loss in 2024.

Q4 weakness: Q4 revenue fell to $8.5 million (Q4 2024: $15.6 million) and the quarter produced a net loss of $15.1 million and adjusted EBITDA of negative $9.5 million, driven partly by timing of Super Scooper deployments and winter maintenance.

Guidance: 2026 guidance of $135–$145 million revenue and $55–$60 million adjusted EBITDA (management expects >25% growth ex‑return‑to‑service work).

Fleet & contracts: Added 6 aircraft to the balance sheet entering 2026 (2 PC‑12s, 2 King Air MMAs, 2 Spanish scoopers); pursuing multi‑year and exclusive‑use state and federal contracts and European deployments (Portugal and Turkey top prospects).

Higher‑margin mix: Sensor‑enhanced aircraft and scoopers carry materially higher EBITDA margins (scoopers ~40%+, some MMAs 40–50%+), and management expects margin expansion as these assets scale.

Balance sheet / liquidity: Completed sale‑leaseback and a new senior secured facility (total facility up to $331.5 million with a $100 million delayed draw term loan) and finished 2025 with $31.4 million cash.

Operations / safety: Utilization improved (days on contract up ~10% YoY), multi‑mission flight hours nearly doubled, fleet supported 380 fires and dropped 7.3 million gallons in 2025 with 96% uptime and no employee fatalities.
