PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 12, 2026-- Regulatory News:

Eutelsat Communications (ISIN: FR0010221234 - Euronext Paris / London Stock Exchange: ETL) reports revenues for the Third Quarter and Nine Months ended 31 March 2026.

THIRD QUARTER REVENUES²

Total revenues for the Third Quarter of Financial Year 2025-26 stood at €293.0 million, down 2.3% on a reported basis, and up by 3.1% like-for-like.

Revenues of the four Operating Verticals (i.e., excluding ‘Other Revenues’) stood at €283.7 million. They were up 0.9% on a like-for-like basis¹. Quarter‑on‑quarter, revenues of the four Operating Verticals were down 1.9% like-for-like¹.

Note: Unless otherwise stated, all variations indicated hereunder are on a like-for-like basis, i.e., at constant currency.

Video (45% of revenues)

Third Quarter Video revenues amounted to €128.0 million, down 13.3% year-on-year. This reflects the impact of sanctions on Russian channels imposed at the beginning of the year, (c. €16 million per annum) as well as the termination of capacity contracts on the Express AT1 and AT2 satellites (low single-digit million impact in FY 2025-26 starting from March 2026), in addition to the underlying decline of this mature business.

On a quarter-on-quarter basis, revenues were down 3.6% reflecting notably the above-mentioned termination of contracts on Express AT1 and AT2.

Since it last reported in February 2026, Eutelsat has renewed multiple capacity agreements, notably with Viewsat at the 7/8° West video neighbourhood to support development of broadcast market in MENA, and in Mexico with Cadena Tres, part of Grupo Imagen, as well as with PCTV, a leading content aggregation and distribution company and part of Megacable Holdings, for the continued distribution of video services via the EUTELSAT 117 West A (E117WA) satellite.

Elsewhere, Eutelsat inked a new partnership with Co-op Cable for a direct-to-home (DTH) and connectivity offering across the Caribbean leveraging the EUTELSAT 65 West A satellite.

Connectivity (55% of revenues)

Total Connectivity revenues for the Third Quarter stood at €155.7 million up 15.3% year‑on‑year. Once again, they continued to be driven by strong growth in LEO, up 65%. Quarter-on-quarter, Connectivity revenues were down 0.6%.

Fixed Connectivity

Third Quarter Fixed Connectivity revenues stood at €60.3 million, up 10.6% year-on-year. They reflected the continued momentum of LEO-enabled connectivity solutions, partially offset by more challenging conditions for GEO-enabled services. Quarter-on-quarter, revenues were down 12.9%, reflecting a one‑off impact from the upfront recognition of revenues relating to a capacity contract booked in Q2.

On the commercial front, Eutelsat signed a new multi-year agreement with MTN Côte d’Ivoire to deliver satellite connectivity services using EUTELSAT KONNECT’s high-throughput capacity. The agreement will expand reliable broadband access nationwide, addressing the connectivity needs of consumer and enterprise segments while supporting digital inclusion through community Wi-Fi hotspots in underserved areas.

Government Services

Third Quarter Government Services revenues stood at €50.4 million, up 11.8% year-on-year. They reflected continued growth in LEO-enabled solutions, notably through services delivered in Ukraine, alongside rising demand from non-US governments. Quarter-on-quarter, revenues were up 10%, notably due to acceleration of LEO activities.

Looking ahead, in the Fourth Quarter, Eutelsat expects to recognise revenues from the Nexus framework agreement with the French Ministry of Defence. As previously communicated, revenues will ramp over the 10-year duration of the agreement.

Mobile Connectivity

Third Quarter Mobile Connectivity revenues stood at €45 million, up 27% year-on-year, reflecting the ongoing growth in the Aero segment, across both GEO and LEO solutions. Quarter-on-quarter, revenues were up 8.3%.

In Aero mobility, a significant new connectivity agreement, powered in part through Eutelsat’s OneWeb LEO network, was announced for Japan Airlines, with more than 40 wide‑body aircraft set to be equipped with a next‑generation IFC solution. The service, deployed by our partner, SES Satellites, will combine GEO capabilities with our LEO constellation, delivering the redundancy, resilience and low‑latency performance required for long‑haul operations, including line‑fit installations on both Airbus A350‑900 and Boeing 787 aircraft.

With 600 installations, 15 airlines already committed and a further 160+ private jets connected, OneWeb LEO is powering a new standard of IFC, built for resiliency, reliability, scalability and passenger expectations at altitude

Elsewhere on the commercial front, Eutelsat entered a multi‑year partnership with Singapore‑based Can Marine to deliver state‑of‑the‑art maritime connectivity services, leveraging Eutelsat’s OneWeb LEO capacity. Furthermore, Eutelsat and its longstanding partner, India’s Station Satcom, a leader in maritime connectivity, signed an expanded multi-year, multi-million-dollar agreement to scale the deployment of Eutelsat’s OneWeb LEO connectivity services across Station Satcom’s global maritime fleet.

The agreement follows the activation of hundreds of vessels on the OneWeb network, whereby Station Satcom will significantly expand the number of vessels equipped with Eutelsat’s LEO services, with over 1,000 vessels in the current deployment pipeline.

Finally, Eutelsat continued to expand its portfolio of user terminals for rail applications, with partners including Kymeta and Hughes Network Systems developing and testing dedicated rail‑certified hardware optimized for the OneWeb LEO network.

Other Revenues

‘Other Revenues’ amounted to €9.4 million in the Third Quarter versus -€0.7 million a year earlier and

€7.6 million in the Second Quarter. They reflected revenue recognition from IRIS² related to Eutelsat’s involvement as Consortium System Development Prime. They also included an almost neutral impact (+€0.3 million) from hedging operations compared to a negative impact of €3.1 million last year and a positive impact of €2.7 million in the Second Quarter.

BACKLOG

The backlog stood at €3.4 billion as of 31 March 2026 versus €3.6 billion a year ago, and €3.4 billion at end-December 2025. The natural erosion of the backlog in the first nine months was notably offset by the renewal with Polsat and growth in the LEO backlog.

It was equivalent to 2.8 times FY 2024-25 revenues, with Connectivity representing 58%.

NINE MONTH REVENUES

Revenues for the first Nine Months of FY 2025-26 stood at €884.7 million, down 2.4% on a reported basis and up by 1.1% at constant currency.

Revenues of the four Operating Verticals (excluding ‘Other Revenues’) were almost stable (-0.1%) on a like-for-like basis, excluding a negative currency effect of €42 million.

COMPLETION OF COMPREHENSIVE REFINANCING PROGRAMME

On 5 March, Eutelsat announced the closing of a €1.5 billion senior notes offering, a transaction representing the final milestone in the Group’s comprehensive c. €5 billion equity and debt financing strategy.

In addition to the bond issuance, the programme included a capital raise supported by its main shareholders, export credit financings, and an extension of bank debt maturities aimed at enabling the Group to finance its medium-term plan and cover the totality of its projected investment needs over the period 2026-2029.

OUTLOOK

On the back of the performance of the first Nine Months, we confirm our objectives for the Full Year 2025-26:

• Revenues of the four Operating Verticals in line with the level of FY 2024-25.
• LEO revenues to grow by 50% year-on-year.
• Adjusted EBITDA margin slightly below the level of FY 2024-25.

Gross capital expenditure is expected around €900 million.

Following the successful completion of the €1.5 billion capital increases in December 2025, Net Debt/EBITDA is estimated at c.2.7x by year-end FY 2025-26, reflecting a robust and self-funded financing structure.

Our longer-term objectives are also confirmed:

• Revenues of the four Operating Verticals between €1.5 and €1.7 billion⁴ by the end of FY 2028‑29, with LEO revenues significantly outperforming the market.
• Operating leverage driving a mid-to-high single-digit percentage point improvement in the EBITDA margin, resulting in a margin of at least 65% ⁴ by FY 2028-29.

In the longer term (post FY 2028-29), the B2B connectivity market is expected to pursue its growth at a double-digit rate, mostly driven by LEO market expansion.

Note: Financial objectives assume: (i) no additional impact on revenues due to sanctions imposed on channels broadcast on the group's fleet (ii) the nominal launch and entry into operation of satellites in course of construction in accordance with the timetable envisaged by the Group; (iii) no incidents affecting any of the satellites in-orbit.
