Frequently Asked Questions

The primary driver of revenue growth is the significant increase in wholesale capacity services, which grew 21% year-over-year for the first six months of 2025. This growth is substantially attributed to the company's agreement with Apple Inc., which is a key customer and accounted for 62% of total revenue in the first six months of 2025.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the company reported a net income of $1.877 million, a significant turnaround from a net loss of $22.879 million for the same period in 2024.

The company is making substantial investments in the Extended MSS Network, as evidenced by the $271.8 million in cash used for investing activities during the first six months of 2025, a significant increase from $74.5 million in the prior year's period. These investments are crucial for future growth but have led to a decrease in cash and cash equivalents from $391.2 million at the end of 2024 to $308.2 million as of June 30, 2025.

The deferred revenue balance increased significantly to $524.5 million as of June 30, 2025. This represents payments received for services that have not yet been rendered.
