The score was 18 in the stored Oct 3, 2026 snapshot and remains 18 in the current publication computed Oct 4, 2026 (0); the largest pillar moves were Momentum -1; the pillar moves offset under the sector-relative weighting, so the headline score is unchanged.

Calculation uses the most recent completed US trading session. Live price changes do not update the score immediately.

How to read these bars and different assessments

Council is a separate blend of available disciplines; MoonshotScore above remains the five-pillar research rating.

Bars show each model's ordered assessment on its own scale, not a probability or a comparable investment return. The adjacent words give the assessment; more filled segments indicate a stronger model reading.

Two of these lenses read this company more favourably than the MoonshotScore does: Dalio-style lens and Englander-style lens. Each lens is a separate scoring function over its own inputs, so a disagreement is a difference of method rather than a correction — the page's answer stays the MoonshotScore above.

On Sep 9, 2026, the Munger lens read the price at that time as fairly valued against its own estimate of value.

Readings on this page are from Oct 5, 2026, except a card that shows its own read date.

What Investors Ask About Firefly Aerospace (FLY)

These answers are editorial: 1 of these 9 answers is drawn from the FLY research dossier (written Jun 14, 2026 by gemini-2.5-flash); the other 8 are question templates that restate figures shown above. Figures in this section are not part of the source register.

What does the MoonshotScore mean for FLY?

FLY carries the MoonshotScore stated above — the Weak band. This is an educational research signal, not a buy or sell recommendation. The number comes from the five-pillar engine (business quality, financial safety, valuation, growth durability, momentum), re-ranked daily against sector peers.

Is FLY a good stock to buy?

Stock Expert AI does not rate FLY buy, sell or hold. Firefly Aerospace Inc. carries a MoonshotScore, in the Weak band, a research rating against its peers rather than a forecast. Whether it fits is your call: check what it sells, whether it earns and what the price assumes. This is educational content, not investment advice.

What is the FLY stock price today?

The last price recorded on this page for Firefly Aerospace Inc. (FLY) is $23.32, as of the Oct 2, 2026 trading session (source: Financial Modeling Prep (FMP) · quote). It is a provider snapshot, not a live exchange feed, so check a brokerage quote before you trade.

What is the FLY price target?

The analyst consensus price target for Firefly Aerospace Inc. (FLY) is $37.83 (range $25.00 to $50.00, median $36.00), per FMP data captured Oct 4, 2026. Targets are analyst opinions and change often; they are not a Stock Expert AI forecast.

What does Firefly Aerospace Inc. do?

Firefly Aerospace Inc. is a space and defense technology company that provides a comprehensive suite of integrated mission solutions. Its core business involves enabling launch, transit, and operations in space for national security, government, and commercial customers. This includes offering Alpha, a responsive small launch service, and Eclipse, a medium-lift launch vehicle for payload deployment.

What are the key factors to evaluate for FLY?

Firefly Aerospace Inc. (FLY) holds a MoonshotScore in the low range. Analysts target $37.83 (+62%). Firefly's Alpha and Eclipse vehicles are directly positioned to capture a share of this expanding market. Not financial advice.

How frequently does FLY data refresh on this page?

FLY's price is the last quote we recorded, from the Oct 2, 2026 trading session. Pages are served from a cache, so the copy you are reading can lag that quote. The quote is a provider snapshot, not an exchange feed. Fundamentals follow quarterly filings. V2 is recalculated from the most recent completed US trading session; the score's own date shows its last successful run.

What has driven FLY's recent stock price performance?

Firefly Aerospace Inc. (FLY) moves on earnings results, analyst revisions, sector rotation, and market sentiment. Notable catalyst: Diversified portfolio of integrated space and defense technologies (launch, lunar, in-space servicing). See the News tab for the latest drivers. Past performance does not predict future results.

Should investors consider FLY overvalued or undervalued right now?

Firefly Aerospace Inc. (FLY) is loss-making, so its trailing P/E is negative (-24.39x) and not usable for valuation — lean on price-to-sales and cash flow in the Financials tab. Analysts target $37.83 (+62%) — upside seen. Compare P/E, P/S, and EV/EBITDA against sector peers for a full view.

Sources — records for every figure on this page (22 figures)

The 22 rows below are exactly the facts the evidence-backed sections of this page printed — the 10-second verdict, the MoonshotScore, price and market value, the five questions with their receipts, and the records behind this page. Known dates and sources are recorded on their own rows; an em dash or UNRECORDED tier preserves a stored observation without inventing either. The quarterly income statement is provider-standardized (FMP) under one row, and scale definitions — a 0-100 rating, the band ladder, the Piotroski 0–9 range — are fixed rather than measured. No number in those sections was generated by a model. The register does not cover quoted third-party headlines, the dated council readings, or the Frequently Asked Questions; each of those says where it came from where it stands.

"As of" is the date the value is true for where the source carries one — a quarter end, a filing date, a price close, the day the score was computed. A cached observation with no source date remains undated; the page publication date is not used as a substitute.
