2.02 Results of Operation and Financial Condition.
On
October 21, 2025, AST SpaceMobile, Inc. (the “Company”) announced a proposed offering (the “New Notes Offering”)
of convertible senior notes due 2036 (the “New Notes”) to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as described in Item 8.01 below. The Company separately
announced a proposed registered direct offering of shares of its Class A common stock (the “Registered Direct Offering”)
as described in Item 8.01 below. In connection with the New Notes Offering and the Registered Direct Offering, the Company provided the
following disclosure for the purpose of supplementing and updating disclosures contained in the Company’s prior filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, which includes certain preliminary unaudited financial information of the Company as of September
30, 2025:
Liquidity
Update
As
of September 30, 2025, total cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash was approximately $1,220.1 million. As of September 30, 2025,
the Company’s total consolidated indebtedness for borrowed money was approximately $724.4 million, consisting of $100.0 million
principal amount of 4.25% senior convertible notes due 2032 (“4.25% Convertible Notes”), $575.0 million principal
amount of 2.375% senior convertible notes due 2032 and an aggregate of approximately $49.4 million of senior secured indebtedness at
its subsidiaries. The Company’s financial results as of and for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 are not yet complete and will
not be available until after the completion of this offering. Accordingly, the foregoing financial information is a preliminary estimate
for cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, total consolidated indebtedness, and total senior secured indebtedness as of September
30, 2025. These estimates are subject to revision based upon the completion of the Company’s quarter-end financial closing procedures
and other developments that may arise prior to the time the Company’s financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2025
are finalized. Neither the Company’s independent auditors, nor any other independent accountants, have audited, reviewed, compiled,
examined, or performed any procedures with respect to this preliminary financial information. You should not place undue reliance on
these preliminary estimates.

pursuant to the October 2025 ATM Program until the later of (x) the 15th day after the pricing date of the New Notes Offering
and (y) such time as the Company receives certain waivers under the October 2025 ATM Program.
