Baird analyst Peter Arment initiates coverage on York Space Systems (NYSE: YSS) with a Outperform rating and a price target of $40.00.

The analyst comments: "We are initiating coverage of York Space Systems (YSS) with an Outperform rating and $40 price target based on 23x our 2028 EBITDA estimate. YSS is purpose-built to deliver software-defined spacecraft for National Security missions at speed (20% faster than peers), scale (significant capacity headroom available), and cost (50%+ cheaper than peers). Right-of-launch software revenues inflect in 2028+ at highly accretive margins, enabled by expanding satellite installed base. Fears of SpaceX/MILNET replacing PWSA Transport Layer (~99% of YSS revenue) unlikely (see page 8 for our detailed thesis). Stay long YSS."
