MIDLAND, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
AST SpaceMobile, Inc. (“AST SpaceMobile”) (NASDAQ: ASTS), the company building the first and only space-based cellular broadband network accessible directly by everyday smartphones, and designed for both commercial and government applications, is providing its business update and results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025.

“For the first time in 2025, AST SpaceMobile became a revenue generating business and it significantly advanced all key aspects of our operations including commercial, government, manufacturing, spectrum rights, IP portfolio, and capital position,” commented Abel Avellan, AST SpaceMobile’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “In 2026, we expect to scale our space-based direct-to-device network from initial commercial activation toward the start of broader commercial service.”

Business Update

  • Reported revenue of $70.9 million for the full year 2025, driven by mobile network operator partners and the U.S. Government
    • Product revenue underpinned by delivery of 15 gateways across five continents

    • Service revenue across multiple contracts and use cases under development with the U.S. Government

    • Revenue expected to grow during 2026 ahead of commercial service activation, supported by backlog of mobile network operator partner revenue and U.S. Government contract milestones

  • Continued orbital launch campaign with encapsulation of BlueBird 7 at Cape Canaveral in February and expected launch during March, with additional launches expected every one to two months on average to reach goal of 45 to 60 satellites in orbit by end of 2026
    • Successfully completed unfolding of BlueBird 6, the largest commercial communications array antenna ever deployed in LEO, expected to greatly exceed the 120 Mbps peak data speeds

    • BlueBird 8 to BlueBird 29 are in various stages of production and expect to complete assembly of 40 satellites equivalent of microns by first half of 2026

    • Acquired fourth site in Midland, Texas for dedicated micron production, increasing total manufacturing square footage soon to be over 500,000 globally

  • Continued to grow partner ecosystem through multiple agreements as SpaceMobile network commercialization efforts advance ahead of scaled commercial and government activation
    • Secured over $1.2 billion of aggregate contracted revenue commitments from commercial partners

    • Received $175.0 million commercial prepayment from stc Group as part of 10-year, regional definitive commercial agreement

    • Expanded commercial partnerships globally with Orange, Telefonica, CK Hutchison, Taiwan Mobile, Sunrise, and progressed initiatives with Vodafone

    • Awarded $30.0 million prime contract award by the Space Development Agency for HALO Europa Track 2 commercial solutions program as demand for differentiated on-orbit capabilities and tactical use cases grows

    • Awarded prime contract position on U.S. Missile Defense Agency SHIELD Program

  • Robust balance sheet with over $3.9 billion in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and liquidity, pro forma for the convertible notes offering and availability under the ATM facility (as of December 31, 2025)
    • In February 2026, raised $1.075 billion of gross proceeds from a new 10-year convertible senior notes offering, with a 2.250% coupon and effective conversion price of $116.30 per share of Class A common stock

    • In February 2026, efficiently managed capital structure and financial assets, equitizing $250.0 million of the 2.375% convertible senior notes due 2032 and $46.5 million of the 4.250% convertible senior notes due 2032

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial Highlights

  • Fourth quarter revenue of $54.3 million and full year revenue of $70.9 million, driven by gateway deliveries and U.S. Government milestones met

  • Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $126.6 million, including $30.9 million of depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense. This represents an increase of $32.2 million as compared to $94.4 million in the third quarter of 2025 due to a $23.9 million increase in cost of revenues mainly attributable to increased volume of gateway deliveries, a $5.4 million increase in engineering services costs, a $3.5 million increase in research and development costs, and a $3.0 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense, partially offset by a $3.6 million decrease in general and administrative costs

  • Adjusted operating expenses(1) for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $95.7 million, an increase of $28.0 million as compared to $67.7 million in the third quarter of 2025 due to a $23.4 million increase in Adjusted cost of revenues(1), a $3.0 million increase in Adjusted engineering services costs(1), a $3.5 million increase in research and development costs, partially offset by a $1.9 million decrease in Adjusted general and administrative costs(1). Our Adjusted operating expenses(1) for the fourth quarter of 2025 excluding Adjusted cost of revenues(1), was $66.8 million, compared to $62.2 million in the third quarter of 2025

  • As of December 31, 2025, we had cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of $2.8 billion

  • As of December 31, 2025, we had incurred approximately $1.6 billion of gross capitalized property and equipment costs and accumulated depreciation and amortization of $173.7 million. The capitalized costs include costs of satellite materials for BlueBird satellites, advance launch payments, capital advances, Block 1 and BlueWalker 3 satellites, assembly and integration facilities including assembly and test equipment, and ground antennas

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We refer to certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press release, including Adjusted operating expenses, Adjusted cost of revenues, Adjusted engineering services costs and Adjusted general and administrative costs. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful measures across time in evaluating our operating performance as we use these measures to manage the business, including in preparing our annual operating budget and financial projections. These non-GAAP financial measures have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP, and therefore have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, these measures may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies and are presented solely to provide investors with useful information to more fully understand how management assesses performance. These measures are not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for their most directly comparable GAAP measures. Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures and the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables accompanying this press release.

Adjusted operating expenses, Adjusted cost of revenues, Adjusted engineering services costs, and Adjusted general and administrative costs are alternative financial measures used by management to evaluate our operating performance as a supplement to our most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure. We define Adjusted operating expense as Total operating expenses adjusted to exclude amounts of stock-based compensation expense and depreciation and amortization expense. We define Adjusted cost of revenues, Adjusted engineering services costs, and Adjusted general and administrative costs, as cost of revenues, engineering services costs, and general and administrative costs, respectively, adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expenses.

We believe Adjusted operating expenses, Adjusted cost of revenues, Adjusted engineering services costs, and Adjusted general and administrative costs are useful measures across time in evaluating our operating performance as we use these measures to manage the business, including in preparing our annual operating budget and financial projections. Adjusted operating expenses, Adjusted cost of revenues, Adjusted engineering services costs, and Adjusted general and administrative costs are non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP, and therefore have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, these measures may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies and are presented solely to provide investors with useful information to more fully understand how management assesses performance. These measures are not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for their most directly comparable GAAP measure of Total operating expenses, Cost of revenues, Engineering services costs, and General and administrative costs.
