Insights
The reported annual revenue increase of over 50% for Globalstar is a substantial growth indicator, reflecting a positive trajectory in the company's financial health. This level of growth, particularly in the context of the broader telecommunications sector, suggests that the company is outperforming many of its peers. The revenue boost is attributed to wholesale capacity services and Commercial IoT, which are both high-margin areas, leading to an improved operating income and Adjusted EBITDA.
Investors should note the company's operating cash flows have increased, allowing for reinvestment into strategic initiatives like XCOM technology commercialization and product development. These investments are critical for maintaining the growth momentum and staying competitive in the rapidly evolving tech landscape. The guidance for the upcoming year, suggesting further revenue increases, may be viewed as a positive signal for sustained growth prospects, potentially influencing the company's stock valuation positively.
Globalstar's engagement with a major retailer for XCOM RAN systems and the deployment through Nokia indicate a successful penetration into new market segments and the strengthening of their industry partnerships. The company's ability to secure contracts with government services also showcases the diversity of their customer base and the applicability of their technology across different sectors. This diversification is a key factor in risk mitigation and revenue stability for the company.
Furthermore, the anticipation of new satellite launches in 2025 is likely to enhance Globalstar's service offerings and could open up additional revenue streams. The satellite industry is characterized by high entry barriers and significant capital expenditure; thus, the ability to launch new satellites is not only a technical achievement but also a strong competitive advantage.
The transition towards Commercial IoT and terrestrial wireless solutions represents a strategic alignment with industry trends, where there is a growing demand for connected devices and enhanced data services. Globalstar's focus on these areas, as part of their 'four pillars of value', is indicative of their commitment to evolving with the market and capitalizing on emerging opportunities.
Moreover, the reference to Band 53 deployment is significant, as it pertains to a mid-band spectrum that is crucial for 5G services. The ability to generate revenue from this indicates Globalstar's active role in the 5G ecosystem, which is expected to experience exponential growth. The company's involvement in 5G, particularly through partnerships like the one with Nokia, positions it favorably within the telecommunications sector, which is increasingly driven by next-generation wireless technologies.

Dr. Paul E. Jacobs, Chief Executive Officer, said, “2023 was a record year for Globalstar because we successfully executed our business plan. Our execution and improved financial performance have enabled us to fund our growth initiatives. We are working on new products, services and solutions with significant revenue opportunities across our four pillars of value: wholesale capacity, legacy, IoT and terrestrial wireless solutions. With our recent operational achievements, we are gaining traction on a number of these initiatives from contracting with a government services company to executing a new terrestrial spectrum agreement and receiving the first commercial order from a major US retailer for multiple XCOM RAN wireless systems. We have momentum and are excited about the year ahead.”
OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS
Terrestrial Spectrum Agreement
In 2023, we supported another deployment opportunity for our Band 53 spectrum with Nokia. The end user for this multi-year deployment is paying to reserve the spectrum in their operating area prior to their planned build-out due to the critical nature of their operations and the scarcity of licensed spectrum. This agreement is expected to convert into a long-term lease arrangement.
Network Services Agreement
Today, we are also excited to announce that we have executed an agreement with a government services company to utilize our satellite network for a mission critical service for government applications. This agreement has been over five years in the making and leverages our constellation in new and innovative ways. After a one-year
XCOM RAN System Deployment

Stock-based compensation increased from the prior year's fourth quarter due primarily to restricted stock units granted in connection with the XCOM License Agreement.
Cost of services increased as a result of higher gateway operating costs, such as lease, maintenance, security, IT and personnel expenses, which have increased in line with our new and upgraded global ground infrastructure. A significant portion of these costs are reimbursed to us and this consideration is recognized as revenue when earned. Cost of services also increased due to non-cash costs associated with the Support Services Agreement (the “SSA”) we entered into in August 2023 in connection with the XCOM License Agreement.
MG&A costs were higher during the fourth quarter of 2023 due to expenses associated with the SSA, legal and professional fees to support regulatory work, government relations and negotiations of new commercial arrangements as well as higher personnel costs following the hiring of certain XCOM executives.

Increases in cost of services, stock-based compensation, MG&A and cost of subscriber equipment were offset slightly by a reduction in depreciation, amortization and accretion. The drivers of the increases in cost of services and MG&A are in line with the items discussed in the quarterly section above. Stock-based compensation was higher due to the items discussed above as well as the modification of certain awards. Cost of subscriber equipment sales were higher consistent with the increase in revenue generated from subscriber equipment sales, with margins narrowing slightly due to the mix of products sold in each respective year.

EBITDA represents earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, accretion and derivative (gains)/losses. Adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash compensation expense, reduction in the value of assets, foreign exchange (gains)/losses, and certain other non-cash or non-recurring charges as applicable. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA in order to manage the Company's business and to compare its results more closely to the results of its peers. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measurements, such as net income/(loss). These terms, as defined by us, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measurement of its operating performance. The Company believes it best reflects changes across time in the Company's performance, including the effects of pricing, cost control and other operational decisions. The Company's management uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, including the preparation of its annual operating budget. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA also is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies in similar industries. As indicated, Adjusted EBITDA does not include interest expense on borrowed money or depreciation expense on our capital assets or the payment of income taxes, which are necessary elements of the Company's operations. Because Adjusted EBITDA does not account for these expenses, its utility as a measure of the Company's operating performance has material limitations. Because of these limitations, the Company's management does not view Adjusted EBITDA in isolation and also uses other measurements, such as revenues and operating profit, to measure operating performance.

Average monthly revenue per user (ARPU) measures service revenues per month divided by the average number of subscribers during that month. Average monthly revenue per user as so defined may not be similar to average monthly revenue per unit as defined by other companies in the Company's industry, is not a measurement under GAAP and should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information contained in the Company's statement of operations. The Company believes that average monthly revenue per user provides useful information concerning the appeal of its rate plans and service offerings and its performance in attracting and retaining high value customers. |
