Description: ISSC Innovative Solutions Support December 31, 2025

Innovative Aerosystems, Inc. (formerly Innovative Solutions and Support, Inc.) designs, manufactures, and supplies a broad portfolio of avionic products-including autothrottles, LPV navigators, standby displays, radio-management suites, air-data and inertial reference systems, as well as flat-panel and integrated global navigation displays-for business jets, commercial airlines, military platforms, virtual co-pilots, and turboprop aircraft.

Founded in 1988 and headquartered in Exton, Pennsylvania, the company trades under ticker ISSC on NASDAQ within the Aerospace & Defense sub-industry. Recent filings show FY-2023 revenue of roughly $45 million with an operating margin near 12%, and a backlog of about $70 million, indicating steady demand for its upgrade-focused product line.

Key sector drivers include rising U.S. defense aviation spend (projected to grow ~4% YoY through 2027), commercial airlines accelerating cabin-retrofit cycles to meet fuel-efficiency mandates, and an expanding market for advanced flight-deck automation that favors modular, upgradeable avionics solutions.
