Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Consolidation |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial statement information and the rules of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of adjustments associated with acquisition accounting and normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of such financial statements. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the information contained in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

Basis of Presentation | The Company consolidates all entities that are controlled by ownership of a majority voting interest. Additionally, there are situations in which consolidation is required even though the usual condition of consolidation does not apply. Generally, this occurs when an entity holds an interest in another business entity that was achieved through arrangements that do not involve voting interests, which results in a disproportionate relationship between such entity’s voting interests in, and its exposure to the economic risks and potential rewards of, the other business entity. This disproportionate relationship results in what is known as a variable interest, and the entity in which the Company has the variable interest is referred to as a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). An entity must consolidate a VIE if it is determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The primary beneficiary has both (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. |
Use of Estimates |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Management has prepared the estimates using the most current and best available information that are considered reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Accounting policies subject to estimates include, but are not limited to, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, contingent consideration, revenue recognition, income taxes, post-retirement benefit plans, paid-in-kind dividends, and warrant liabilities.

Segment Information | Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and that are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The Company has concluded that it operates in one operating segment and one reportable segment, space infrastructure, as the CODM reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources, and evaluating financial performance. |
Foreign Currency Translation |
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars (“USD”), which is the functional currency of the Company. The local currency of our operations in Luxembourg and Belgium, the Euro, is considered to be the functional currency of those operations. Assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign subsidiaries, where the functional currency is the local currency, are translated into USD at exchange rates effective as of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated using average exchange rates in effect for the periods presented.
Balance sheet translation adjustments are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions are included in other (income) expense, net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, cash balances with banks and similar institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. |
Emerging Growth Company and Recently Adopted/Issued Accounting Pronouncements |
Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or do not have a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”)) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.
This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Boards (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments–Credit Losses (Topic 326), an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2016-13, there were various updates that amended and clarified the impact of ASU 2016-13. ASU 2016-13 broadens the information that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured either collectively or individually. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 require an entity to record an allowance for credit losses for certain financial instruments and financial assets, including accounts receivable, based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. An entity must use judgment in determining the relevant information and estimation methods that are appropriate in its circumstances. The use of forecasted information incorporates more timely information in the estimate of expected credit losses. Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 using a modified retrospective transition method with a cumulative effect adjustment in the period of adoption. Adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2020-04, there were various updates that amended and clarified the impact of ASU 2020-04, including an update in December 2022, which deferred the sunset date in Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. ASU 2020-04 provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate. Entities can elect not to apply certain modification accounting requirements to contracts affected by “reference rate reform” if certain criteria are met. An entity that makes this election would not have to remeasure the contracts at modification date or reassess a previous accounting determination. The amendments in this ASU apply to all entities (subject to meeting certain criteria) that have contracts, hedging relationships, or other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption, which is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

Commitments and Contingencies |
Contingencies in the Normal Course of Business
Under certain contracts with the U.S. government and certain governmental entities, contract costs, including indirect costs, are subject to audit by and adjustment through negotiation with governmental representatives. Revenue is recorded in amounts expected to be realized on final settlement of any such audits.
Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to litigation, claims, investigations and audits arising from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Although legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable, the Company believes that it has valid defenses with respect to any matters currently pending against the Company and intends to defend itself vigorously. Excluding pending matters disclosed below, the outcome of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
On November 5, 2021, the Company was notified of potential accounting issues with a business unit by an employee in connection with his resignation. After completing an investigation, the Audit Committee concluded that the potential issues raised by the former employee did not require a restatement or adjustment of the Company’s previously issued consolidated financial statements relating to any prior periods. The Company self-reported this matter to the SEC on November 8, 2021 and on August 1, 2023, the SEC notified the Company’s counsel that this matter is closed.
On December 17, 2021, the Company, our CEO, Peter Cannito, and our former CFO, William Read, were named as defendants in a putative class action complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. That litigation is captioned Lemen v. Redwire Corp. et al., Case No. 3:21-cv-01254-TJC-PDB (M.D. Fla.). On March 7, 2022, the Court appointed a lead plaintiff. On June 17, 2022, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint. In the amended complaint, the lead plaintiff alleges that the Company and certain of its directors and officers made misleading statements and/or failed to disclose material facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects, allegedly in violation of Section 10(b) (and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder) and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act. As relief, the plaintiffs are seeking, among other things, compensatory damages. The defendants believe the allegations are without merit and intend to defend the suit vigorously. On August 16, 2022, the defendants moved to dismiss the complaint in its entirety, and such motion was denied by the Court on March 22, 2023. A reasonable estimate of the amount of any possible loss or range of loss cannot be made at this time.
On May 25, 2022, a plaintiff commenced derivative litigation in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware on behalf of the Company against Peter Cannito, Les Daniels, Reggie Brothers, Joanne Isham, Kirk Konert, Jonathan Baliff, and John S. Bolton. That litigation is captioned Yingling v. Cannito, et al., Case No. 1:22-cv-00684-MN (D. Del.). The complaint’s allegations are similar to those of the class action lawsuit filed in December 2021, namely, that statements about Redwire’s business and operations were misleading due to alleged material weaknesses in the Company’s financial reporting internal controls. The plaintiff alleges the defendants violated Section 10(b) (and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder) and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, breached their fiduciary duty by allowing misleading disclosures to be made, and caused the Company to overpay compensation and bonuses tied to the Company’s financial performance. As relief, the plaintiffs are seeking, among other things, compensatory and punitive damages. This litigation has been stayed until the earlier of: (i) fifteen (15) days following the issuance of a decision resolving a motion for summary judgment in or public disclosure of a potential settlement of the class action lawsuit filed in December 21, 2021, or (ii) twenty (20) days following notice by either party of another pending derivative action and where the continuance of such stay may or will prejudice the noticing party’s rights. The defendants believe the allegations are without merit and intend to defend the lawsuit vigorously. However, a reasonable estimate of the amount of any possible loss or range of loss cannot be made at this time.
On January 23, 2023, the Company received a Civil Investigative Demand from the antitrust division of the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) regarding potential violations of Section 1 of the Sherman Act and Section 8 of the Clayton Act. No suit has been filed, and we intend to fully cooperate with the DOJ. Although a reasonable estimate of the amount of any possible loss or range of loss cannot be made at this time, we do not believe that any of our practices violated the Sherman Act or the Clayton Act.
Business Combinations
The Company has acquired and plans to continue to acquire businesses with prior operating histories. These acquisitions may have unknown or contingent liabilities, which the Company may become responsible for and could have a material impact on the Company’s future operating results and cash flows. In addition, the Company may incur acquisition costs, regardless of whether or not the acquisition is ultimately completed, which may be material to future periods.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventories, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and current liabilities are reflected on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at amounts that approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these financial assets and liabilities.
The fair value of the Company’s debt approximates its carrying value and is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy as it is based on discounted cash flows using a current borrowing rate.
