The sale occurred between January 7th and 8th, as the stock reached a 52-week high of $112.66, reflecting a 277.32% increase over the past year.

The company raised its 2026 organic revenue growth forecast to 15%, anticipating further growth in 2027.

In response to President Trump's defense spending policies, Kratos has chosen to reinvest in development rather than stock buybacks.
