What the Analysts think about EchoStar
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for EchoStar stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of EchoStar stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Closing the AT&T spectrum sale brought in $20.25bn and eased a near-term funding overhang: EchoStar used the proceeds to repay $2bn of DISH DBS notes and redeem $3.69bn of DISH Network notes. The company said the closing removed substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission)
The pending SpaceX spectrum deal could give EchoStar about $8.5bn in cash and 261.8 million SpaceX shares. J.P. Morgan believes the shareholding may be undervalued, offering potential upside if the transaction closes and SpaceX’s value holds. (Morningstar)
Wireless service revenue rose 2.3% year on year in Q3, while average revenue per user grew by more than 5%. That suggests EchoStar is earning more from each wireless customer, despite a shrinking subscriber base. (Fierce Network)
Boost Mobile continued to lose customers: EchoStar shed 182,000 wireless subscribers in Q3, leaving its base about 4% lower than a year earlier, and churn increased. Persistent losses could undermine the value of the wireless business even as revenue per customer rises. (Fierce Network)
The legacy pay-TV and broadband businesses are also contracting. In Q2, pay-TV lost about 241,000 subscribers and broadband lost 59,000, while revenue fell 8.7% and 6.7% respectively year on year. (EchoStar Corporation)
DISH Wireless remained in Chapter 11 in early November, with tower-company creditors still in mediation. EchoStar previously estimated $5–7bn of costs to terminate the wireless network and cover related taxes, leaving uncertainty over the eventual cash burden. (Fierce Network, Investing.com)
