AST SpaceMobile is building and deploying the first space-based cellular broadband network designed to operate directly with standard, unmodified smartphones for both commercial and government applications. The company designs, manufactures, and launches large phased-array satellites (BlueBirds) into low Earth orbit (LEO), deploying the largest communication arrays ever placed in LEO. AST SpaceMobile partners with over 60 mobile network operators (MNOs) globally, collectively covering over 3 billion subscribers, using a partner-first model where MNO spectrum is shared and traffic remains in-country via native cellular architecture. The company holds an extensive IP and patent portfolio, operates vertically integrated manufacturing facilities exceeding 500,000 square feet globally, and is developing proprietary ASICs for satellite processing. Revenue is generated through gateway equipment deliveries to commercial partners and U.S. Government contract milestones across national security, emergency response, IoT, and AI edge compute applications. The company targets a constellation of approximately 45 satellites by early 2027 and is preparing to launch beta services with select MNO partners in 2026. Updated
A $125.9 million loss on involuntary conversion tied to the BB7 launch incident drove the quarterly loss well past expectations, and revenue missed expectations too. Management still reaffirmed full-year 2026 revenue guidance of $150 million to $200 million, with beta service with select carrier partners the next milestone.
