Description: VSAT ViaSat November 10, 2025
Viasat, Inc. (NASDAQ:VSAT) delivers a broad portfolio of satellite-based broadband and communications solutions across both commercial and government markets. The firm operates through two segments-Communication Services and Defense & Advanced Technologies-offering everything from consumer internet and VoIP to in-flight connectivity, tactical beyond-line-of-sight links, and secure networking hardware for military and critical infrastructure.
Key recent metrics underline the company’s growth trajectory: FY 2023 revenue reached approximately $2.1 billion, with a commercial backlog exceeding $1.5 billion, driven largely by contracts for its upcoming Viasat-4 low-earth-orbit (LEO) constellation and expanding in-flight Wi-Fi deployments with major airlines. The sector’s tailwinds include rising global broadband demand, increasing defense budgets for secure communications, and the rollout of 5G networks that rely on satellite backhaul for remote coverage.
