Analyst projections of the future price of ViaSat stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
ViaSat-3 F2 entered service across the Americas on 17 September, following F3’s Asia-Pacific service entry in August. Viasat says the completed constellation triples fleet bandwidth and should improve capacity, resilience and network economics across aviation, maritime, government and broadband. (Viasat)
Defence is becoming a stronger growth engine: first-quarter DAT backlog rose 32% year on year and company-wide backlog increased 19%. The PTS-G award also gives Viasat a route into resilient, anti-jam military satellite systems with follow-on operations and support revenue. (MarketScreener, GlobeNewswire)
Cash generation and the balance sheet are moving in the right direction. First-quarter free cash flow was $72 million, up 19% year on year, while net leverage improved to about 3.2 times from 3.6 times a year earlier as lower interest costs helped reduce the net loss. (MarketScreener, The Motley Fool)
The latest quarter still showed weak underlying momentum: revenue fell 1% year on year and adjusted EBITDA fell 7%. Growth in aviation and government satcom was offset by declines in residential fixed broadband and maritime, leaving management reliant on a stronger second half. (MarketScreener)
Viasat remains highly capital-intensive and heavily indebted. June-quarter debt was $6.57 billion, while fiscal 2027 capital expenditure is guided at $950 million–$1.0 billion against expected free cash flow of only about $180 million. (StockTitan, MarketScreener)
Competition is threatening the pace of growth in its best-performing connectivity businesses. Management expects aviation growth to moderate as rivals intensify, while maritime vessel numbers are expected to decline modestly and fixed broadband has remained under pressure.
