AST SpaceMobile, Inc. ASTS

We are building the first and only global Cellular Broadband network in space to be accessible directly by everyday smartphones (2G/4G-LTE/5G devices) for commercial use, and for other applications for government use utilizing our extensive intellectual property ("IP") and patent portfolio. The SpaceMobile Service is being designed to provide cost-effective, high-speed Cellular Broadband services to end-users who are out of terrestrial cellular coverage using existing mobile devices. The SpaceMobile Service currently is planned to be provided by a constellation of high-powered, large phased-array satellites in LEO using low-band and mid-band spectrum controlled by MNOs.

On March 22, 2025, we and certain of our subsidiaries entered into certain definitive agreements with Ligado Networks LLC ("Ligado LLC") and its subsidiaries for usage rights for mid-band spectrum, which were approved by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court") on June 23, 2025. Ligado's Chapter 11 plan was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on or about September 29, 2025. Subject to the completion of certain conditions, including regulatory approval, as a result of the transaction with Ligado, we expect our network will be enhanced by our long-term access to up to 45 MHz of the lower mid-band satellite spectrum in the United States and Canada through our usage agreements. In addition, on September 25, 2025, we completed the acquisition of an entity that holds certain S-Band International Telecommunication Union ("ITU") priority rights to Mobile Satellite Services frequencies in the range of 1980-2010 MHz and 2170-2200 MHz, for use in LEO. We expect the acquisition will further enhance our network by up to 60 MHz of mid-band satellite spectrum globally.
