    Justin Lang's questions to Gogo (GOGO) leadership

    Justin Lang's questions to Gogo (GOGO) leadership • Q2 2025

    Question

    Justin Lang asked for clarification on the drivers behind the change in CapEx guidance, the reason for a sequential decrease in HDX shipments, and more details on the mentioned delays in MilGov contract awards.

    Answer

    CFO Zachary Cotner explained the CapEx guidance change was due to accelerating some fully reimbursed spending for the FCC 'rip and replace' program into 2025, with no impact on the net figure. CEO Christopher Moore stated the HDX shipment decline was anticipated, as 2025 is a 'build year' focused on STC development ahead of the 2026 commercial ramp. Regarding MilGov, Moore attributed award delays to the slow nature of government contracting cycles but noted strong international growth and an expected pickup in Q4.

    Justin Lang's questions to VIASAT (VSAT) leadership

    Justin Lang's questions to VIASAT (VSAT) leadership • Q4 2025

    Question

    Justin Lang from Morgan Stanley inquired if the strong growth in government satcom would continue in fiscal 2026 and asked how to reconcile the deleveraging priority with the forecast for a modest uptick in leverage.

    Answer

    Chief Financial Officer Garrett Chase responded that government satcom growth is expected to taper but will still be up slightly, remaining a significant high-margin contributor. He explained that while leverage may tick up slightly in fiscal 2026 due to the timing of major capital expenditures, the company will be on a much different deleveraging path in subsequent years as it achieves sustained free cash flow and the large ViaSat-3 spending cycle concludes.
