HawkEye 360, which provides a satellite-supported signal processing platform for defense applications, filed on Friday with the SEC to raise up to $100 million in an initial public offering.

HawkEye 360 is a defense technology company that provides space-based radio frequency signals intelligence and analytics to government and allied customers. The company designs and operates a constellation of small satellites that collect RF data, then processes that data through proprietary signal processing and AI-enabled analytics software to detect, geolocate, classify, and track emitters such as radars, jammers, vessels, and communications networks. Its offerings span data subscriptions, analytics, custom SIGINT software and hardware solutions, and mission-specific support services used across defense, intelligence, maritime security, and spectrum monitoring applications.

The Herndon, VA-based company was founded in 2015 and booked $118 million in revenue in the 12 months ended December 31, 2025. It plans to list on the NYSE under the symbol HAWK. HawkEye 360 filed confidentially on December 23, 2025. Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, RBC Capital Markets, Jefferies, BofA Securities, Baird, Raymond James, and William Blair are the joint bookrunners on the deal.
