++ Eutelsat Group Reports Strong FY 2023-24 Results Following OneWeb Merger ++ The Board of Directors of Eutelsat Communications, chaired by Dominique D’Hinnin, has reviewed the financial results for the fiscal year that ended on 30 June 2024. The company reported a solid performance aligned with its objectives, showcasing substantial progress and significant milestones. Eva Berneke, CEO of Eutelsat Communications, highlighted that the company successfully met its fiscal year 2023-24 targets, driven by strong performance from its incremental GEO (Geostationary Equatorial Orbit) capacity and the contributions from its LEO (Low Earth Orbit) business. The year marked a pivotal moment with the completion of Eutelsat’s combination with OneWeb, creating the world’s first LEO-GEO satellite operator, a strategic advancement in the company’s telecom pivot. #techafricanews #financial #results #pivotal #moments #leo #geo #satellite #telecom #pivot

This is an interesting move for a company like Eutelsat. It does make perfect sense on a financial point of view, will clean up the Balance Sheet and move large assets outside the organization. On the other hand this is not in line with the other LEO operators which are investing in numerous gateway in the world. So I'd like to see how this move will fit with OneWeb deployment. Sure enough a LEO gateway is easier and less costly than a GEO with its 7m antenna and expensive HUB equipment, so they may keep owning infrastructure for LEO while outsourcing their GEO infrastructure. It is also a significant change in the Eutelsat strategy which has been revolving around high EBITDA, with the ground station moving from depreciation to Opex this will have a significant impact on the EBITDA and net income. I hope this will be well explained to the market otherwise the share is going to take another hit. This may ends up being close to a 100M Eur hit on the net income. But I am sure that Eutelsat management is looking into that to make sure that the move will not affect their shareholders and more importantly their customers.

The potential sale of #Eutelsat ground station network, valued at over €800 million, presents a significant opportunity for sale and leaseback arrangements in the satellite industry. This move, driven by strategic efforts to compete in an increasingly consolidated space communications market, could attract infrastructure investors looking for stable returns. Companies in the satellite sector might consider similar strategies to capitalize on their physical assets while focusing on core operations and growth, aligning with industry trends towards mergers and acquisitions as seen with recent deals like #SES acquisition of #Intelsat #SpaceLeasingInternational, #Eutelsat, #SES, #Intelsat, #SpaceIndustry, #SatelliteTechnology, #LeasebackSolutions, #AssetManagement
