Friday, July 26, 2024
CARLSBAD, Calif., July 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Viasat, Inc. (NASDAQ: VSAT), a global leader in satellite communications, today outlined additional information about its new segment reporting structure commencing with the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The new segment reporting is designed to better reflect the diverse and attractive end markets the company serves and to provide investors greater insight into Viasat's business lines and growth opportunities.
Commencing with its first quarter of fiscal year 2025, the company will report its financial results based on two new reportable segments: Communication Services and Defense and Advanced Technologies.
-- Communication Services is comprised of four primary business lines:
Aviation, Government Satcom, Maritime, and Fixed and Other.
-- The Communication Services segment provides a wide range of
broadband and narrowband communications solutions across government
and commercial mobility markets, as well as for fixed and
residential broadband customers. These solutions include
nose-to-tail connectivity for commercial airlines and business jet
customers, including our market-leading passenger Wi-Fi services. In
commercial maritime, marketed under the Inmarsat Maritime brand,
solutions support vessel operation, navigation, crew connectivity
and safety services, and include the new NexusWave fully managed
connectivity service. In the government market, Viasat offers highly
trusted and secure interconnectivity solutions for defense and
civilian government customers. Additionally, within this segment
Viasat develops and offers a wide array of advanced satellite and
wireless products, and networks and terminal solutions that support
or enable the provision of fixed and mobile broadband and narrowband
services.
-- Defense and Advanced Technologies is comprised of four primary business
lines: Information Security and Cyber Defense, Space and Mission
Systems, Tactical Networking, and Advanced Technologies and Other.
-- The Defense and Advanced Technologies segment provides a diverse set
of resilient, vertically integrated solutions, leveraging core
technical competencies in encryption, cyber security, tactical
gateways, modems and waveforms, to government and commercial
customers. The Information Security and Cyber Defense business line
offers high-quality encryption products that ensure data security,
whether at rest or traveling through a network. The Space and
Mission Systems business line builds technologies for use on the
ground (antennas, modems and gateways) or in space (space-based
communication systems and payloads). The Tactical Networking group
provides resilient communications designed for on-the-move or
on-the-pause operations in a multi-domain battlespace with friendly
force tracking and narrowband solutions. The Advanced Technologies
and Other business line focuses on commercial communication
satellite product development, orchestration of sovereign and
multi-orbit solutions and emerging growth markets, including
direct-to-device.
Viasat previously announced its intention to introduce a new segment reporting structure commencing with the first quarter of fiscal year 2025 at the time of reporting its Q4 FY2024 results, on May 21, 2024. The previous reporting structure (for periods through March 31, 2024 - FY2024) reported financial results in three segments: Government Systems, Satellite Services and Commercial Networks.
