Viasat úspěšně vypustil družici Maxwell pro demonstrační misi NASA Communications Services Project. Pětiměsíční testování služeb v pásmech Ka a L potrvá do března 2027.
CARLSBAD, Calif., Oct. 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Viasat Inc. (NASDAQ: VSAT), a global leader in satellite communications technology, today announced it has advanced the company’s demonstration mission for NASA’s Communications Services Project (CSP) with the successful launch of the Maxwell spacecraft from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station yesterday, October 20th, at 7:04 a.m. ET during the Bandwagon-5 rideshare mission with SpaceX.
Viasat offers solutions for rapidly growing low Earth orbit (LEO) operations which require the ability to effectively transport mission data back to Earth for analysis and distribution while balancing real-time demands and data latency, as well as maintain continuous contact with the spacecraft for command and control. This on-orbit demonstration mission is a key milestone in Viasat’s work developing innovative space-based communication services under two CSP contract awards totaling $81 million and supports NASA as it prepares to sunset its Tracking and Data Relay Satellite fleet.
Supporting its Defense and Advanced Technologies segment, Viasat’s government space team will now proceed with on-orbit testing and demonstrations that will take place over five months through March 2027. Viasat’s Ka- and L-band space relay services will offer LEO operators the real-time, low-data latency communications required for time-sensitive operations, removing delays to downlink data to the ground. These solutions are designed to support NASA mission needs, as well as the growing market for on-demand LEO connectivity services for government and commercial mission operations.
The Viasat payloads include a space-qualified Ka-band terminal that will be able to access the high-capacity ViaSat-3 satellite network, as well as an L-band terminal to connect with Viasat’s global L-band network. These geostationary orbit (GEO)-based relay solutions will deliver on-demand access to critical mission data and enable real-time telemetry, tracking and command (TT&C) operations at any point in a LEO spacecraft’s orbit. The demonstrations will also include direct-to-ground communications through Viasat’s Real-Time Earth Ground-Station-as-a-Service for S-, X-, and Ka-bands.
"Yesterday’s launch represents the culmination of years of innovation, engineering and collaboration across Viasat, NASA and our industry partners," said John Reeves, Vice President of Space and Mission Systems, Viasat Government. "As LEO constellation operations, Earth observation and scientific missions, and military space activities continue to expand, the need for resilient, high-performance space-based communications to keep data flowing has never been greater. Our demonstration will show how new commercial services can transform LEO operations with continuous access and command and control of the spacecraft, enabling dynamic re-tasking and real-time data collection for government and commercial missions."
Rocket Lab Corporation (NASDAQ: RKLB) built the Maxwell spacecraft at its Long Beach, California, facility, incorporating a suite of in-house components and subsystems including solar panels, reaction wheels, star trackers, and flight and ground software. The spacecraft provides power, communications, propulsion, and attitude control for the mission demonstration. In addition, Rocket Lab provided a new L-band radio to support the relay demonstration of various TT&C applications through Viasat’s L-band network.
This marks Viasat’s second NASA CSP program demonstration mission, following an initial demonstration of its launch telemetry relay solution during the Blue Origin New Glenn launch in November 2025.

(NASDAQ: VSAT), a global leader in satellite and secure communications, today announced the signing of an agreement at World Space Business Week in Paris to formally establish Equatys, a shared space and ground infrastructure platform that will support the extension of mobile coverage and overlay in the places terrestrial networks cannot serve, including in coverage gaps in populated metro areas. Upon the formation of Equatys, Space42 and Viasat will commit to an initial equity contribution of up to USD1 billion.
Development of the initial constellation accelerates with the simultaneous signing of an agreement to step-up joint funding. Upon formation of Equatys, Viasat is expected to be appointed as the company’s prime technology contractor.
The company is being established as global demand for satellite-enabled mobile connectivity accelerates. With 3GPP NTN standards enabling everyday smartphones and connected devices to access satellite networks, the addressable Direct-to-Device (D2D) and advanced MSS market is expected to expand significantly over the coming decades. Together, Viasat and Space42 bring unmatched global reach through commercial relationships with more than 400 mobile operators worldwide and access to the largest amount (>100MHz) of globally coordinated MSS spectrum available for D2D deployment, creating a uniquely scalable foundation for growth.
Equatys is designed to support the connection of smartphones, IoT devices, and other devices and terminals directly to satellites, giving mobile operators a way to offer voice, text, and data where cellular networks are otherwise unavailable or have low density. The agreement builds on work by Space42 and Viasat on the technical design and manufacture of the satellites, along with ecosystem progress in seamless terrestrial network integration, interoperability standards, and feedback from a number of mobile network operators and ecosystem participants. This is the next stage in Space42 and Viasat’s roles as co-founders of Equatys, first announced in March 2025, when Space42 and Viasat began funded technical and commercial studies of shared non-terrestrial network (NTN) infrastructure, followed by the September 2025 announcement of their intention to form Equatys.
Equatys is built on a Tower Company model, a proven approach that helped the terrestrial mobile industry efficiently scale by sharing standardized and/or common infrastructure among all or many operators. Equatys will provide a neutral, shared layer of both satellites and ground infrastructure; by sharing infrastructure rather than duplicating it, ecosystem participants can reduce capital requirements, accelerate deployment, increase service availability, and maintain customer and commercial independence. Participating operating licensees sharing infrastructure can realize greater cost efficiency than is likely possible within their own geographic coverage area and/or spectrum authorizations – potentially rivalling or surpassing even the largest individual constellations. Multiple operators can use the same platform while maintaining their own spectrum licensing rights, customers, and commercial relationships. The business model is open by design, so additional spectrum licensees and satellite operators can use the constellation, which supports high levels of spectrum aggregation, coordination and cooperation. The initial constellation is the first phase of an architecture designed to scale to 2,800 satellites across 60 orbital planes and three altitude layers, enabling densification without redesign as demand grows.
The company’s funding is expected to come from a combination of founders’ equity, third-party equity and debt financing sources. The model is anticipated to offer equity investors infrastructure-grade returns with appreciation potential, while phased equity offerings will allow additional strategic and financial partners to participate as the system scales. Additional licensee users of the system would not be required to invest in the system in order to use it.
Within this new company, each founding partner brings significant scale to the system. Space42 holds coordinated L-band spectrum rights across more than 160 markets and mobile operator relationships that extend the platform’s commercial reach. Viasat is expected to serve as prime technology contractor, and holds coordinated MSS spectrum rights in the L-band globally and in the S-band in Europe. Together, Space42 and Viasat hold commercial agreements with more than 400 mobile operators worldwide and technical capability and access to operate across over 100 MHz of globally coordinated MSS spectrum for advanced MSS services and NTN D2D services.
Karim Michel Sabbagh, Managing Director of Space42, said: "With the signing of this agreement, Equatys takes off. For the first time, the satellite industry is building infrastructure the way the mobile industry thinks: shared, interoperable, standards-based, and designed for billions of devices rather than millions of subscribers. Space42 and Viasat have each brought what the other could not, and together we have assembled a differentiated capabilities system unique to the space industry. We have always known it was within our reach, and today we are proving it."
"We are creating a new infrastructure category for global D2D and advanced MSS connectivity, backed by unique spectrum assets, significant committed capital, and a business model proven to scale the mobile industry. Finalizing the formation of Equatys reflects our collective confidence in the strategic value and long-term financial merits of this venture to support a rapidly growing non-terrestrial market for emerging D2D NTN and advanced Mobile Satellite Services," said Mark Dankberg, Chairman and CEO of Viasat. "By creating a system with state of the art technology, and mechanisms for neutral, shared, and trusted infrastructure access, Equatys will accelerate innovation in space-based connectivity, establish a scalable and interoperable architecture designed to support a full ecosystem of participants with choice and economies of scale, and deliver meaningful growth opportunities with attractive returns for investors and partners."
Industry Opportunity
The global D2D satellite connectivity market is projected to reach USD 30-70 billion by 2040, initially driven by the embedding of NTN support into 3GPP Release 17, the technical standard underpinning mobile networks globally, with even closer integration planned for future releases.The standards shift means everyday smartphones and IoT devices can connect to satellite networks without specialized hardware, opening a market that no prior satellite generation could realistically serve. Equity Framework
Upon the formation of Equatys, Space42 and Viasat will each commit to an initial equity contribution of USD 400 million, which is expected to be increased by an additional USD 200 million from Space42 in connection with a future equity funding round open to third-party investors, bringing the two parties’ total equity contributions to up to USD1 billion.
The formation of the venture, constellation procurement and corresponding definitive agreements remain subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and the appointment of Viasat as the prime technology contractor. The companies intend to provide further updates as Equatys progresses toward those conditions.
Equatys will be an independent, neutral shared space and ground infrastructure platform for direct-to-device and advanced mobile satellite services licensees. Operating on a Tower Company model, Equatys is designed to provide compelling economic and performance benefits to global, regional, and national operators with appropriate MSS and/or SCS operating licenses. It is intended to enable choice, interoperability and economically attractive NTN access for ecosystem participants. Equatys seeks to deliver compounding growth, as the ecosystem user base expands via access to globally coordinated spectrum, and to create sustainable shareholder value. The platform is being built on 3GPP NTN standards. For more information, visit www.equatys.com

Equatys Space42 and Viasat Sign Binding Agreement to co-found Equatys
ViaSat po poslední výsledkové zprávě za poslední měsíc odepsal asi 13,7 % a zaostal za S&P 500. Tržby ve 1. čtvrtletí klesly na 1,16 miliardy USD, ale upravený zisk na akcii činil 17 centů a překonal odhady.
A month has gone by since the last earnings report for ViaSat (VSAT - Free Report) . Shares have lost about 13.7% in that time frame, underperforming the S&P 500.
Will the recent negative trend continue leading up to its next earnings release, or is ViaSat due for a breakout? Well, first let's take a quick look at the most recent earnings report in order to get a better handle on the recent catalysts for Viasat Inc. before we dive into how investors and analysts have reacted as of late.
Viasat reported mixed first-quarter fiscal 2027 results, with revenues missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate and earnings beating the consensus estimate.
The company reported a year-over-year revenue decline, reflecting ongoing headwinds in portions of its legacy commercial services portfolio and lower IP licensing revenues. However, its bottom line improved as reduced interest expense, driven by continued debt repayment, outweighed the impact of lower revenues.
Net Income
Viasat reported a net loss of $51.7 million or a loss of 38 cents per share compared with a net loss of $56.4 million or a loss of 43 cents per share in the prior-year quarter. The narrower loss was due to lower interest expense during the quarter.
Excluding non-recurring items, Viasat reported non-GAAP net income of $24.5 million or 17 cents per share compared with $23.1 million or 17 cents per share in the prior-year period. The bottom line beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 10 cents.
Revenues
Revenues declined to $1.16 billion from $1.17 billion. The figure missed the consensus estimate of $1.2 billion. Product revenues were $324.1 million, down from $344.7 million in the year-ago quarter. Service revenues increased to $832.4 million from $826.4 million a year ago.
Revenues from the Communication Services segment were $825.1 million, down from $827.4 million in the prior-year quarter. The marginal revenue decline reflected lower contributions from residential fixed broadband and maritime services, which offset continued growth in aviation and government Satellite Communications. The segment’s adjusted EBITDA decreased to $311.3 million from $321.5 million.
Revenues from the Defense and Advanced Technologies (DAT) segment were $331.5 million, down 4% year over year, primarily due to weaker contributions from Advanced Technologies & Other and Space and Mission Systems, despite strong Tactical Networking growth. Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $69.9 million from $86.9 million in the year-ago quarter.
Other Details
In the June quarter, Viasat reported an operating income of $47.3 million compared with $46.7 million in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $381.1 million, down from $408.5 million in the year-ago quarter. The net contract awards increased to $1.3 billion from $1.18 billion a year ago, while the backlog increased 19% year over year to $4.22 billion.
Cash Flow & Liquidity
During the first quarter of fiscal 2027, Viasat generated an operating cash flow of $260.6 million compared with $258.5 million in the prior-year period. As of June 30, 2026, the company had $1.74 billion in cash and cash equivalents, with a net debt of $4.83 billion.
Outlook
For fiscal 2027, management expects mid-single-digit revenue growth and flat to slightly up adjusted EBITDA year over year. Viasat anticipates the Communication Services segment’s low single-digit year-over-year revenue performance, due to continued growth in aviation services, offset by a decline in FS&O. DAT revenue growth is anticipated to be in the mid-teens, primarily driven by strong growth in information security and cyber defense, as well as space and mission systems and tactical networking.
Capital expenditure is expected to be between $950 million and $1 billion (including approximately $250-$300 million for Inmarsat-related capital expenditures). The company’s operating cash flow is expected to be flat year over year, and the free cash flow is anticipated to be approximately $180 million (excluding the benefit of the Ligado lump sum payments, as they are non-recurring).

Viasat posouvá ViaSat-3 blíž ke komerčnímu provozu: Flight 2 dokončil veškeré testy na oběžné dráze a Flight 3 je po nasazení reflektoru a ramene v testování. Firma čeká, že nová kapacita podpoří letectví, námořní, firemní i vládní služby.
Key Takeaways Viasat is advancing ViaSat-3 toward commercial service with key deployment milestones completed.VSAT expects expanded capacity to support aviation, maritime, enterprise and government services.Viasat reported record awards and backlog, but customer adoption remains the key milestone. The next phase of Viasat's (VSAT - Free Report) ViaSat-3 constellation marks one of the company's most important operational milestones. As additional satellites move closer to commercial service, investors are evaluating whether the expanded network can accelerate growth across aviation, maritime, enterprise and government markets. While the technology promises meaningful long-term benefits, the pace of commercialization and customer adoption will ultimately determine whether ViaSat-3 becomes a major earnings driver.
Why ViaSat-3 Matters for ViasatThe ViaSat-3 program represents the foundation of Viasat's next-generation global satellite network. During the first quarter of fiscal 2027, ViaSat-3 Flight 2 completed all bus in-orbit testing and is expected to enter commercial service by September 2026. Following quarter-end, Flight 3 completed reflector and boom deployment, entered in-orbit testing and remains on track for commercial service across the Asia-Pacific region in late August or early September 2026. These milestones significantly reduce deployment uncertainty and move the constellation closer to full commercial operation.
Management believes the additional satellite capacity, broader geographic coverage and flexible beamforming capabilities will improve network efficiency, customer experience and capital utilization while strengthening Viasat's ability to compete across multiple connectivity markets.
Where New Capacity Could Generate GrowthThe expanded ViaSat-3 network is expected to create growth opportunities across several higher-value business segments. In aviation, additional bandwidth should enhance passenger connectivity while supporting airlines seeking more reliable in-flight internet services. Maritime customers may also benefit from improved multi-orbit connectivity through Viasat's NexusWave platform, which continues gaining commercial adoption. Enterprise customers could gain access to broader coverage and higher-capacity services, while government agencies may benefit from more resilient and flexible communications infrastructure.
Management also expects greater bandwidth availability, flexible beamforming and AI-driven network optimization to improve capacity utilization, lower effective airtime costs and allow network resources to be allocated more efficiently as customer demand evolves. These operational improvements could support higher-value services while improving returns on invested capital over time.
Execution Remains the Biggest VSAT TestAlthough deployment progress has been encouraging, launching satellites represents only the first step in realizing the investment opportunity. The larger challenge is successfully commercializing the expanded network. Investors will closely monitor customer adoption, capacity utilization, pricing, revenue conversion and profitability as ViaSat-3 enters service. Delays in customer onboarding or slower-than-expected monetization could postpone the financial benefits anticipated from the new constellation.
Competition also remains intense across satellite communications. Viasat competes with Iridium Communications Inc. (IRDM - Free Report) and AST SpaceMobile, Inc. (ASTS - Free Report) . Iridium continues to benefit from strong demand for its global L-band satellite network serving government, aviation and maritime customers. Meanwhile, AST SpaceMobile is developing a space-based cellular broadband network designed to deliver direct-to-device connectivity through partnerships with mobile network operators. As a result, Viasat must execute successfully while continuing to differentiate its services in an increasingly competitive industry.
How Government Demand Supports the StoryGovernment demand provides another important source of long-term growth beyond commercial broadband. During the first quarter, Viasat reported approximately $1.3 billion in company-wide awards and record backlog, supported by the next phase of the Protected Tactical SATCOM-Global (PTS-G) program. Management also highlighted growing government SATCOM demand and its largest-ever government opportunity pipeline, reflecting increasing demand for resilient, multi-orbit communications architectures.
Executives believe future growth will increasingly come from integrated government communications, cybersecurity, tactical networking and advanced space technologies that combine commercial and national security capabilities. These businesses could provide a more diversified revenue base while complementing the commercial opportunities created by the ViaSat-3 constellation.
How the Zacks Rank Frames This OpportunityThe stock currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), reflecting a balanced investment outlook as Viasat enters the next phase of its satellite expansion. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.Viasat also has a Value Score of B, Growth Score of B, Momentum Score of F and VGM Score of B. The favorable Value and Growth Scores indicate reasonable valuation characteristics and improving long-term business prospects, while the VGM Score of B reflects a balanced combination of value and growth factors. However, the Momentum Score of F suggests weaker momentum characteristics under the Zacks methodology despite the stock's recent advance.
Overall, the successful rollout of the ViaSat-3 constellation has the potential to reshape Viasat's long-term growth profile by expanding capacity across higher-value commercial and government markets. However, commercialization, customer adoption and revenue conversion remain the critical milestones investors should monitor.
Viasat vykázal ve 1. čtvrtletí fiskálního roku 2027 volný peněžní tok 72 milionů USD a potvrdil celoroční výhled. Tahounem byly obranné zakázky a růst vládních satelitních služeb, zatímco pevné širokopásmové připojení a maritime zůstaly pod tlakem.
Viasat's Orbiting Profits: Space Force Jackpot?Viasat NASDAQ: VSAT reported first-quarter fiscal 2027 results that included positive free cash flow, rising government satellite communications revenue and record awards and backlog in its Defense & Advanced Technologies segment, while legacy fixed broadband and maritime businesses remained under pressure.
Revenue totaled $1.2 billion, down about 1% from the prior-year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $381 million, down 7%, while net loss improved by $5 million to $52 million, principally because of lower interest expense, Chief Financial Officer Gary Chase said. The company maintained its fiscal 2027 outlook for mid-single-digit revenue growth, adjusted EBITDA ranging from flat to slightly higher, and approximately $180 million in free cash flow.

3 Satellite Stocks To Check Out Before SpaceX's IPOChase said comparisons with the prior year were affected by Viasat's sale of its Navarino equity interest and lower intellectual-property licensing revenue. Together, those items reduced year-over-year EBITDA comparisons by $22 million. Excluding those effects, revenue would have been flat and adjusted EBITDA would have been roughly unchanged, he said.
Cash flow and leverage improve Viasat generated $72 million in free cash flow during the quarter, excluding roughly $30 million in cash taxes related to the Navarino sale. The result represented a 19% increase from the previous year and was supported by operating cash flow of $291 million, up 13%. Capital expenditures rose 11% to $219 million.
Small-Cap Standouts: These 3 Stocks Rose Over 300% in 2025“The first quarter is typically our toughest cash quarter given annual bonus payments,” Chase said, adding that he was pleased with the company’s cash generation.
Net debt relative to trailing EBITDA was approximately 3.2 times, improving 0.4 turns from the prior-year period. Chase also said Viasat moved an additional $100 million in cash from Inmarsat to Viasat during the quarter, bringing the cumulative amount transferred to $450 million.
For the full fiscal year, the company expects consolidated capital expenditures of $950 million to $1 billion. That includes about $400 million of maintenance spending, more than $150 million of capitalized interest, approximately $50 million related to ViaSat-3, up to $150 million of success-based spending, and $225 million to $250 million in growth capital expenditures.
Defense awards and government SATCOM growth Company-wide awards rose 10% to about $1.3 billion, while backlog increased nearly 19% to $4.2 billion. Defense & Advanced Technologies, or DAT, awards increased 22% to $524 million, led by Space and Mission Systems and Tactical Networking. DAT backlog rose 32% from the previous year.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Mark Dankberg highlighted the company’s win for the next phase of the Protected Tactical SATCOM-Global program. He said the award reflected demand for multi-orbit national security capabilities and Viasat’s ability to combine space technology, mission systems and dual-use satellite services.
DAT revenue declined 4% to $331 million, primarily due to lower IP licensing revenue and declines in Space and Mission Systems. However, Tactical Networking revenue rose 36%, driven by tactical communications products and TrellisWare international product sales. Chase said Viasat expects strong fiscal-year growth in encryption, Space and Mission Systems, and Tactical Networking despite first-quarter timing issues.
Government SATCOM services revenue within Communication Services increased 10%, supported by greater usage from U.S. and international government customers. Dankberg said the company expects technology development and operational demonstration contracts in DAT to create opportunities for both government and commercial recurring satellite services over time.
Communication Services shows mixed performance Communication Services revenue was flat at $825 million, as growth in aviation and government SATCOM offset declines in residential fixed broadband and maritime. Segment adjusted EBITDA declined 3% to $311 million, reflecting weakness in Fixed Services and Other, maritime pressure and the absence of Navarino’s prior-year contribution.
Aviation revenue increased 11%. Viasat ended the quarter with about 4,530 commercial aircraft in service, up 10% year over year, and approximately 850 commercial aircraft in its in-flight connectivity backlog. The company expects aviation revenue growth to continue as more customers adopt full fast free offerings, raising average revenue per aircraft, although aircraft unit counts are expected to remain near the first-quarter ending level.
Maritime revenue declined 7% as vessels in service fell. Viasat had more than 1,700 NexusWave vessels in service and an order book exceeding 1,400 vessels. Management said it is working to improve installation rates and distribution arrangements, while expecting the NexusWave installed base to grow significantly.
Fixed Services and Other revenue fell 27% as U.S. fixed-broadband subscribers continued to decline. Viasat ended the quarter with 115,000 subscribers and average revenue per user of $111. Chase said the company expects fixed broadband declines to continue until after ViaSat-3 Flight 2 enters service.
ViaSat-3 deployments advance Dankberg said Viasat completed all bus deployment and in-orbit testing activities for ViaSat-3 Flight 2. Subsequent to quarter-end, the company completed reflector and boom deployment for ViaSat-3 Flight 3, which entered in-orbit testing ahead of anticipated Asia-Pacific service entry in late August or early September.
The new Ka-band satellites are intended to support broadband connectivity in aviation, maritime, government mobility and fixed markets. Dankberg said the company expects growth in aviation and government markets to be driven by both a rising number of connected platforms and greater bandwidth consumption per platform.
Management also discussed its Equatys initiative, saying the next major disclosure is expected to concern funding for an initial satellite constellation. Dankberg said the L- and S-band constellation could materially expand capacity for mobile satellite services applications, including direct-to-device, government, unmanned vehicle and safety-related uses.
Viasat said its strategic review remains ongoing. Dankberg said management is evaluating how to maximize shareholder value from its DAT business and spectrum assets, but does not want to make a premature separation decision while competitive and geopolitical conditions continue to evolve.

VSAT stock is moving. Watch the price action here. Viasat Q2 Details Viasat reported quarterly earnings of 17 cents per share, which beat the consensus estimate for losses of 30 cents, according to Benzinga Pro data.
Quarterly revenue came in at $1.16 billion, which missed the Street estimate of $1.2 billion and was down from $1.17 billion in the same period last year.
Viasat said the revenue decline primarily reflected a 4% year-over-year decrease in the Defense and Advanced Technology segment, while the Communication Services segment revenue remained flat year-over-year.
“The first quarter of fiscal year 2027 was marked by disciplined execution, operational progress — including on the ViaSat-3 (VS-3) satellites — and strong awards in growing business areas that reinforce our confidence in targeting new markets, our competitive positions, and our ongoing growth prospects,” said CEO Mark Dankberg.

Viasat čeká za 1Q fiskálního roku 2027 růst tržeb na 1,20 mld. USD díky komerčnímu letectví a vládní poptávce. Ziskovost ale mohou tlačit dolů vyšší investice do satelitní sítě a financování.
Key Takeaways VSAT is expected to post higher Q1 fiscal 2027 revenues, led by commercial aviation and government demand.Viasat's ViaSat-3 F3 rollout is expected to expand Asia-Pacific capacity and support connectivity services.VSAT may face earnings pressure from satellite investments, financing costs and competitive markets. Viasat, Inc. (VSAT - Free Report) is set to report first-quarter fiscal 2027 results on Aug. 4, after the closing bell. It pulled off a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 498.46%, on average, beating estimates on the previous three occasions and missing once.
The company is expected to record year-over-year revenue growth, driven by strength in its commercial aviation and government businesses, supported by the commercial rollout of ViaSat-3 F3. However, higher satellite network investments, elevated capital spending and financing costs are likely to have weighed on the bottom line.
Factors at PlayDuring the first quarter of fiscal 2027, Viasat is expected to have benefited from the commercialization of ViaSat-3 F3, which expands network capacity across the Asia-Pacific region. The satellite is likely to have supported service revenues by enabling additional aviation, maritime, enterprise and government connectivity services, while strengthening the company's global broadband capabilities.
During the quarter under review, continued execution of the Protected Tactical SATCOM-Global (PTS-G) Program Swarm 1 Delivery Order is expected to have boosted Viasat's government business. Ongoing work under the United States Space Force contract is likely to have supported demand for the company's secure dual-band satellite communication systems, contributing positively to defense revenues.
Viasat's commercial aviation business is expected to have delivered a solid performance during the quarter, supported by the continued rollout of its in-flight connectivity solution across Jetstar's long-range international fleet. Growing adoption of its next-generation cockpit connectivity service by airlines is likely to have generated higher aviation revenues.
Despite top-line growth, Viasat's earnings might have remained under pressure amid intense competition in the communications and defense markets. Management expects aviation revenue growth to moderate in fiscal 2027, while any delays in regulatory approvals or the commercial ramp-up of the ViaSat-3 satellites could postpone capacity expansion and weigh on broadband revenue growth. In addition, uncertainty surrounding the U.S. government budget remains a potential headwind for the defense business, as it could affect contract awards and revenue generation.
For the June quarter, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for total revenues is pegged at $1.20 billion, indicating an increase from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure of $1.17 billion. The consensus mark for earnings is pegged at 10 cents per share, indicating a decline from 17 cents reported in the year-ago quarter.

Viasat experts demonstrate satellite-enabled voice call capabilities as part of research collaboration
during this week’s 5G Automotive Association Meeting Week in Munich, Germany: for the first time integrated with the infotainment system of a BMW iX3.
Showcase highlights what might be possible in future and the potential for reliable voice and messaging connectivity beyond the reach of traditional terrestrial networks.
MUNICH, July 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Viasat, Inc. (NASDAQ: VSAT), a global leader in satellite communications, today announced a landmark technology demonstration showcasing the first automotive satellite voice call demonstration fully integrated into a BMW Group vehicle’s platform.
It marks a significant step forward as Viasat brings Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) communications into the connected vehicle ecosystem: enabling drivers and passengers to stay connected in remote or underserved areas where cellular coverage may be limited or unavailable.
Building on an earlier demonstration with eSIM capabilities from Cubic³, a leading provider of software-defined vehicle (SDV) solutions, Viasat experts in Munich utilized advanced technology including Qualcomm Technologies Inc.’s Snapdragon® Auto 5G Modem-RF Gen 2 solution, and the Fraunhofer IIS NESC AI voice codec. This enables voice communications to be sent using the NB-IoT communications protocol over Viasat’s highly reliable, L-band satellite network.
For the first time, this technology was integrated with BMW Group’s in-vehicle architecture, allowing voice calls to be initiated and managed directly through the vehicle interface. By extending messaging and voice services beyond cellular coverage, automakers like BMW Group can ensure drivers remain connected for emergency assistance and critical safety applications, regardless of location.
“This demonstration reflects broader industry excitement to ensure consistent, resilient satellite capabilities for next-generation vehicles,” said Sandeep Moorthy, Senior Vice President, Advanced Non-Terrestrial Solutions at Viasat. “By bringing standards-based NTN to vehicles, we can integrate satellite voice and messaging and ultimately enable a future where drivers can remain connected — wherever the journey takes them.”
Viasat, BMW Group, Cubic3, and Fraunhofer IIS are active members of the 5GAA (5G Automotive Association), which brings together technology and automotive partners to develop real-world, scalable connectivity solutions for all road users. Satellite-enabled automotive connectivity applications include voice and messaging emergency services, fleet management, and over-the-air updates in low-connectivity regions.
The NB-IoT protocol, which can support lower data-rate applications, is enabled by global 3GPP standards. Future releases are expected to pave the way for 5G-New Radio (5G-NR) satellite services, which could support video streaming and seamless roaming between terrestrial and satellite networks.
