Redwire releases Acorn 2.0 simulation software for aerospace sector

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Redwire Corporation (NYSE:RDW), currently trading at $8.82 and showing signs of being undervalued according to InvestingPro analysis, announced on Tuesday the release of Acorn 2.0, an updated version of its modeling and simulation software designed for aerospace and defense customers.

The new software utilizes agent-based modeling and artificial intelligence to address complex simulation challenges that may exceed capabilities of traditional modeling tools, according to a company press release. With analysts forecasting sales growth and profitability for Redwire this year, this product launch comes at a strategic time for the company.

Built on Modular Open System Architecture, Acorn 2.0 enables users to simulate and validate solutions including hybrid architectures, meshed networks, and multi-domain operations. The software features accelerated simulation modes, rapid integration capabilities, and cyber vulnerability assessment tools.

"We recognize the challenges of large space-based architectures—from satellite constellations to layered defense systems—require robust domain-specific digital engineering systems," said Tom Campbell, President of Redwire Space Missions, in the statement.

The company reported it has begun deploying the software to select customers, including DeepSat, an Earth observation startup that will use Acorn 2.0 to support architectural design and performance optimization of its satellite constellation.

Redwire Corporation describes itself as an integrated space and defense technology company with approximately 1,300 employees across the United States and Europe. The company focuses on aerospace infrastructure, autonomous systems, and multi-domain operations. With a market capitalization of $1.27 billion and a current ratio of 1.46, the company maintains moderate debt levels and strong liquidity.

In other recent news, Redwire Corporation reported its second-quarter earnings for 2025, revealing a significant shortfall in both earnings and revenue. The company posted an actual earnings per share (EPS) of -$1.41, which was notably lower than the forecasted -$0.13. Revenue also fell short of expectations, coming in at $61.8 million, compared to the anticipated $82.75 million. This earnings miss has led to a reevaluation by analysts, with H.C. Wainwright reducing its price target for Redwire from $26.00 to $22.00, although the firm maintained a Buy rating. The disappointing financial results have contributed to a notable decline in Redwire’s stock value. These developments underscore the challenges Redwire is currently facing in meeting market expectations. Investors are advised to keep an eye on further analyst updates and company announcements.
