Rocket Lab's business development has been robust, with the company maintaining its position as the fourth most frequent orbital launcher globally. The company has expanded its offerings to include medium-class launch vehicles and launch services, space systems design and manufacturing, on-orbit management solutions, and space data applications. Notably, Electron, Rocket Lab's small launch vehicle, has successfully delivered 172 spacecraft to orbit across 38 missions as of December 31, 2023. The company also announced plans to develop the Neutron launch vehicle, which will increase payload capacity and is expected to be capable of human space flight. Looking to the future, Rocket Lab has secured a significant contract with the Space Development Agency valued at $515 million, which includes the design, manufacture, delivery, and operation of 18 space vehicles with deliveries slated for 2027. The company's growth strategy is dependent on expanding its addressable launch services market with the Neutron launch vehicle and winning spacecraft constellation missions, as well as expanding its portfolio of strategic spacecraft components.
