    Huge Upside with 549 Billion Market

    Kleos operating in a HUGE market that allows room for many to grow. Even attaining a small sliver(e.g. 0.5%) of marketshare of the 549 Billion space market gives Kleos Big upside from their current 160M valuation.

    Using Radio Frequency technology their satellites Geo-locate is a niche that sets it apart from other Space Industry firms and is very attractive as they can sell the actionable data to clients in the markets below.

    •Defense and Security Market

    • Maritime Intelligence Market

    • Insurance Market

    • Regulatory Market

    • Environmental Protection Market

    Piracy, Overfishing, Smuggling, Geo-Tracking, are big concerns from Governments and they devote a large portion of national budgets to combating these issues.

    Disrisked Downside with Cheap Valuation & Earlier Cash-Flow Breakeven

    Launching your own satellites implies alot of risk. It’s a binary event. Either it takes off successfully or it explodes. Kleos Space is a client of SpaceX and pays them for a successful launch. Downside is mitigated and the whole thing is insured for Kleos and doesn’t have the same risk an Satellite Manufacturers.

    Near-Term Catalysts

    Client Deal Announcements

    3rd Cluster of Satellites Launched

    4th Cluster of Satellites Launched

    Operating Break-evan reached (EST 2H 2021)

    US Expansion (Kleos pursuing over 30 US government customers).

    International Partnership Announcements

    NASDAQ Uplisting

    Peer Analysis


    Even though the 6 above are listed as a competitors. Kleos is not a manufacturer of satellites and doesn’t have the same risk as the above companies. Also the valuation of around 160 Million(not Billion) makes it attractive investment wise as they can recover their CAPEX costs with only a couple client contracts.

    Conclusion

    Attractive Valuation of only 160Million, Niche Focus on Radio Frequency Geo-Location services and successful cluster launches deliver a strong likelihood of Kleos Space being an attractive investment. Existing successful cluster launches improve the data quality,
