Insights

Equity capital markets analyst

AST SpaceMobile sets up a large at-the-market equity program of up to $800 million, creating ongoing capacity to raise capital as needed.

AST SpaceMobile entered an Equity Distribution Agreement permitting at-the-market sales of Class A common stock with an aggregate offering price of up to $800.0 million. Sales will be made through multiple agents under Rule 415, giving the company flexibility to issue shares in smaller increments over time instead of a single, fully marketed deal.

The agents may earn a commission of up to 3.0% of the gross sales price per share and receive customary indemnification and expense reimbursements. The program can run for up to three years and may be suspended or terminated by the company or the agents, so actual usage will depend on future capital needs and market conditions.
