ViaSat (VSAT) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Viasat Inc. has demonstrated a robust financial performance, with in-flight connectivity (IFC) revenue growing by 10% quarter-over-quarter and 14% year-over-year, driven by increased utilization and the uptake of "fast and free" services. Additionally, the company's maritime segment expanded by 3% quarter-over-quarter as its NexusWave product pipeline, which has amassed over 1,000 vessel orders, begins to generate revenue and establish competitive positioning against rivals like Starlink. Furthermore, the total backlog increased to $3.6 billion from the previous $3.5 billion, reflecting a favorable trend in operational performance and a positive shift in cash flow from operations due to reduced working capital needs.
Bears say
Viasat Inc. is facing significant challenges in its communication services segment, which generates the majority of its revenue, as evidenced by a decline in fixed broadband users by 9% quarter-over-quarter, resulting in a total of 172,000 users. Despite achieving flat revenue of $827 million year-over-year, the company is under pressure from competition, particularly from Starlink, which has contributed to a notable decline in fixed broadband services by 19% year-over-year. Furthermore, residential average revenue per user (ARPU) has also witnessed a downward trend, currently at $115 per month, indicating difficulties in maintaining customer value in a highly competitive market.
