Gogo Q3 loss widens to $3.2M as revenue falls
The additional required prepayments apply only to the 2026 Extended Term Loans, with dates through December 2027.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Gogo Inc. reported third-quarter revenue of $213.234 million and a net loss of $3.200 million, versus $223.585 million and a $1.930 million net loss a year earlier. For the first nine months of 2026, net income was $7.876 million, compared with $22.919 million, and operating cash flow was $51.394 million, compared with $115.987 million.
On November 6, 2026, Gogo and its subsidiary Gogo Intermediate Holdings LLC amended the 2021 Credit Agreement. The amendment extends term loans held by consenting lenders by converting them into 2026 Extended Term Loans maturing October 31, 2030. GIH must prepay $25.0 million on the closing date, $30.0 million on or before December 31, 2026, and another $20.0 million on or before December 31, 2027. These additional payments apply only to the 2026 Extended Term Loans and are subject to reduction for voluntary prepayments and repurchases.
Remaining performance obligations were approximately $442 million as of September 30, 2026. Approximately $427 million primarily represents connectivity and entertainment service revenue; Gogo expects to recognize approximately 40% of that service RPO within one year. Long-term debt was $814.634 million as of September 30, 2026.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Basis of Presentation
The Business – Gogo Inc. (“Gogo,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is the only multi-orbit, multi-band in-flight connectivity provider offering connectivity technology purpose-built for business and military/government aviation. We have a holistic approach of providing broadband connectivity services to our customers from small to large aircraft and heavy jets through our air-to-ground (“ATG”) technology and integrated low earth orbit (“LEO”) and geostationary earth orbit (“GEO”) satellite solutions provided by multiple satellite constellations owned by our satellite network partners. We aim to deliver to our customers consistent, global tip-to-tail connectivity with a suite of software, hardware, and advanced infrastructure supported by a 24/7/365 in-person customer support team to fit their every need.
Segments – The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM makes resource and operating decisions by evaluating performance and business results of the consolidated company. As a result, the Company has a single reportable segment, with net income (loss) utilized as the performance measure.
Basis of Presentation – The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and in conformity with Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our annual audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 27, 2026 (the “2025 10-K”). These Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all material adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly state, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
The results of operations and cash flows for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.
We had
Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates the significant estimates and bases such estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or expected to have minimal impact on our consolidated financial statements and related notes.
Accounting standards not yet adopted:
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosure about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied on a prospective basis, however, retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have upon our consolidated financial statements and related notes.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which details the criteria for capitalization of internal-use software costs. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and may be adopted on a prospective, modified, or retrospective transition approach, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have upon our consolidated financial statements and related notes.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities, which establishes authoritative guidance on the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of government grants. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2028, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have upon our consolidated financial statements and related notes.

2. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the treasury stock method for stock-based compensation. Contingently issuable shares are only included in the diluted earnings per share computation once all necessary conditions have been satisfied.
The diluted earnings per share calculations exclude the effect of stock options, deferred stock units, performance stock units, restricted stock units and the potential Earnout Liability related to the acquisition of Satcom Direct when the computation is anti-dilutive. For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026, the weighted average number of shares excluded from the computation was

7. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Our intangible assets are comprised of both indefinite-lived and finite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but are reviewed for impairment at least annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. We perform our annual impairment test of our indefinite-lived intangible assets during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, and the results from the test performed in the fourth quarter of 2025 indicated no impairment. We also reevaluate the useful life of indefinite-lived intangible assets each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life.

On November 6, 2026 (the “Closing Date”), Gogo and GIH entered into a third amendment to the 2021 Credit Agreement, by and among Gogo, GIH, the guarantors party thereto and the lenders party thereto, to, among other purposes, extend the maturity of the term loans held by consenting lenders under the 2021 Term Loan Facility by converting such term loans into a new class of term loans, which are the 2026 Extended Term Loans. The third amendment includes a mechanic for holders of the Initial Term Loan Facility to convert their Initial Term Loans into 2026 Extended Term Loans within a period of time after the Closing Date, with such conversion to be effective as of the Closing Date. The third amendment also requires GIH to prepay $

The 2021 Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants. The negative covenants include restrictions on, among other things: incurrence of indebtedness or issuance of disqualified equity interests; incurrence or existence of liens; consolidations or mergers; activities of Gogo and any subsidiary holding a license issued by the FCC; investments, loans, advances, guarantees or acquisitions; asset sales; dividends or other distributions on equity; purchase, redemption or retirement of capital stock; payment or redemption of certain junior indebtedness; entry into other agreements that restrict the ability to incur liens securing the 2021 Facilities; and amendment of organizational documents; in each case subject to customary exceptions. The Third Amendment introduces provisions restricting the Company’s ability to undertake certain liability management transactions by restricting priming/subordination and non-pro-rata treatment of the 2026 Extended Term Loans and/or lenders of the 2026 Extended Term Loans, subject to specified exceptions, and introduces provisions requiring the consent of a supermajority of the lenders of the 2026 Extended Term Loans to approve or waive.

Gogo, GIH, and each direct and indirect wholly-owned U.S. restricted subsidiary of GIH (Gogo and such subsidiaries collectively, the “Guarantors”) are also party to a guarantee agreement, dated April 30, 2021 (the “2021 Guarantee Agreement”), in favor of Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as collateral agent (the “2021 Collateral Agent”), by which GIH and the Guarantors guarantee the obligations under the 2021 Facilities and certain other secured obligations as set forth in the 2021 Guarantee Agreement, and GIH and the Guarantors entered into a collateral agreement, dated April 30, 2021 (the “2021 Collateral Agreement”), in favor of the 2021 Collateral Agent, whereby GIH and the Guarantors grant a security interest in substantially all of their respective tangible and intangible assets (including the equity interests in each direct material wholly-owned U.S. restricted subsidiary owned by GIH or any Guarantor, and 65% of the equity interests in any non-U.S. subsidiary held directly by GIH or any Guarantor), subject to certain exceptions, to secure the obligations under the 2021 Facilities and certain other secured obligations as set forth in the 2021 Collateral Agreement. The liens granted under the 2021 Term Loan Facility are subject to an intercreditor agreement and are pari passu with the liens granted under the HPS Term Loan Facility (as defined below). The third amendment to the 2021 Credit Agreement adds a requirement for certain foreign subsidiaries to join as guarantors. Other foreign subsidiaries are required to provide guarantees if their assets, revenues or Consolidated EBITDA exceed the applicable individual materiality thresholds, or if they cease to qualify as immaterial because the applicable aggregate thresholds are exceeded. Additional collateral granted pursuant to the third amendment to the 2021 Credit Agreement will also secure the obligations under the HPS Term Loan Facility on a pari passu basis, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

9. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
We are exposed to interest rate risk on our variable rate borrowings. We currently use interest rate caps to manage our exposure to interest rate changes, and have designated these interest rate caps as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the earnings impact of the derivatives designated as cash flow hedges is recorded upon the recognition of the variable interest payments related to the hedged debt.
In May 2021, we purchased interest rate caps with an aggregate notional amount of $
The notional amounts, strike rates and end dates of the cap agreements are as follows (notional amounts in thousands):

We record the effective portion of changes in the fair value of our cash flow hedges to other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, and subsequently reclassify these amounts into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction is recognized. The amounts included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will be reclassified to interest expense in the event the hedges are no longer considered effective, in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging.
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2026, we recorded a decrease in fair value of the interest rate caps of $
When derivatives are used, we are exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparties; however, non-performance is not anticipated. ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, requires companies to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the balance sheet. The fair values of the interest rate derivatives are based on quoted market prices for similar instruments from commercial banks (based on significant observable inputs - Level 2 inputs).
The following table presents the fair value of our interest rate derivatives included in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the periods presented (in thousands):

Fair Value Measurement
Our derivative assets and liabilities consist principally of interest rate caps, which are carried at fair value based on significant observable inputs (Level 2 inputs). Derivatives entered into by us are typically executed over-the-counter and are valued using discounted cash flows along with fair value models that primarily use market observable inputs. These models take into account a variety of factors including, where applicable, maturity, interest rate yield curves, and counterparty credit risks.
10. Interest Costs
We capitalize a portion of our interest on funds borrowed during the active construction period of major capital projects. Capitalized interest is added to the cost of the underlying assets and amortized over the useful lives of the assets.
The following is a summary of our interest costs for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 (in thousands):

Debt:
As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our only financial assets and liabilities disclosed but not measured at fair value are the 2021 Term Loan Facility and the HPS Term Loan Facility, which are reflected on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at cost. The fair value measurements are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy since they are based on quoted market prices of our instruments in markets that are not active. We estimated the fair values of the 2021 Term Loan Facility and the HPS Term Loan Facility by calculating the upfront cash payments a market participant would require to assume these obligations. The upfront cash payments used in the calculations of fair values on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, excluding any issuance costs, are the amounts that a market participant would be willing to lend at such date to an

12. Income Tax
The effective income tax rates for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 were
We regularly assess the need for a valuation allowance related to our deferred income tax assets to determine, based on the weight of all available positive and negative evidence, whether it is more likely than not that some or all of such deferred assets will not be realized. In our assessments, the Company considers recent financial operating results, the scheduled expiration of our net operating losses, future taxable income, the reversal of existing taxable differences, and tax planning strategies. The remaining valuation allowance is still required for deferred tax assets related to foreign, state and local net operating losses and a valuation allowance related to our convertible note investment, as it is more likely than not as of September 30, 2026 that these deferred tax assets will not be realized.
We are subject to taxation and file income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction, various states, and several foreign jurisdictions including, but not limited to, Canada, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Australia, Brazil and Singapore. With a few exceptions, as of September 30, 2026, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, local or foreign examinations by tax authorities for years before 2010.
We record penalties and interest relating to uncertain tax positions in the income tax provision line item in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
13. Stock-Based Compensation and Retirement Plans
Stock-Based Compensation — As of September 30, 2026, we maintained the Amended and Restated 2024 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “A&R 2024 Plan”). The A&R 2024 Plan provides for the grant of both equity and cash awards, including non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance awards (shares and units), restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), deferred share units and other stock-based awards and dividend equivalents to eligible employees, directors and consultants, as determined by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors. See Note 14, “Stock-Based Compensation and Retirement Plans,” in our 2025 10-K for further information regarding the 2024 Plan. The majority of our equity grants are awarded on an annual basis.

15. Commitments and Contingencies
Contractual Commitments – We have agreements with various vendors under which we have remaining commitments to purchase hardware components and development services. Such commitments will become payable as we receive the hardware components, or as development services are provided.
SmartSky Litigation – On February 28, 2022, SmartSky Networks, LLC (“SmartSky”) brought suit against Gogo Inc. and its subsidiary Gogo Business Aviation LLC in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware (the “Court”) alleging that Gogo 5G infringes four patents owned by the plaintiff. On February 21, 2023, the plaintiff amended its complaint to allege that Gogo 5G infringes two additional patents that had been recently issued to the plaintiff. The suit seeks compensatory damages as well as treble damages for alleged willful infringement and reimbursement of plaintiff's costs, disbursements and attorneys' fees. On May 29, 2024, Gogo Inc. and its subsidiary Gogo Business Aviation LLC amended their answer and counterclaims in the same suit, alleging that three of the six patents asserted by the plaintiff are unenforceable due to inequitable conduct before the U.S. Patent Office. A number of dispositive motions were filed on October 25, 2025, and the Court issued orders resolving those motions. SmartSky’s motions were denied. Gogo’s motion for summary judgment of invalidity on one of SmartSky’s asserted patents was granted. The Court also
22
Gogo Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued)
granted Gogo’s motion for summary judgment of no lost profits and Gogo’s motion to exclude SmartSky’s damages expert’s opinions on lost profits and reasonable royalty damages. On November 17, 2025, the Court commenced a jury trial on the plaintiff’s claims. On November 21, 2025, the jury determined that Gogo willfully infringed the plaintiff’s asserted patents and returned a verdict in the total amount of $
On March 5, 2024, Gogo Inc. and its subsidiary Gogo Business Aviation LLC filed counterclaims in the same suit, alleging that SmartSky’s ATG network, Flagship equipment, and LITE ATG equipment infringe three patents owned by Gogo. Gogo’s counterclaim suit seeks an unspecified amount of compensatory damages as well as reimbursement of Gogo's costs and attorneys’ fees. On April 10, 2024, the Court held that Gogo's counterclaims would proceed under a separate schedule and would be tried separately from SmartSky’s claims. On December 31, 2025, Gogo Inc. and its subsidiary Gogo Business Aviation LLC amended their counterclaims to add Apcela IFC JV, LLC as a counterclaim defendant. On July 22, 2026, the Court issued its Markman order. Under a schedule agreed upon by the parties, fact discovery will be completed by February 24, 2027, with dispositive motions due August 13, 2027. A trial date has been scheduled for December 2027.
On December 16, 2024, SmartSky sued Gogo Inc. and its subsidiaries in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of North Carolina alleging that Gogo maintains an illegal monopoly over air-to-ground broadband inflight connectivity products and services and has blocked SmartSky from entering the market in violation of antitrust laws. SmartSky also alleges claims of false advertising, unfair and deceptive trade practices, and tortious interference. The suit seeks actual damages, treble damages, punitive damages, disgorgement of profits, reimbursement of plaintiff's costs, attorneys’ fees, pre- and post-judgment interest, and interest on actual damages. On March 14, 2025, Gogo Inc. and its subsidiary Gogo Business Aviation LLC filed a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim. On July 10, 2026, the parties submitted Court-ordered briefing on the issue of whether a final judgment in the Delaware patent case would be preclusive in this case. The motion to dismiss is still pending. Discovery is expected to be completed by February 5, 2027 and a trial date has been scheduled for July 12, 2027. We will vigorously defend our position in this lawsuit. The outcome of the litigation is inherently uncertain.
HPS Litigation – On September 29, 2026, HPS, as the administrative agent of the HPS Credit Agreement, filed a lawsuit against Gogo Inc., GIH and other subsidiaries in the Supreme Court for State of New York, County of New York, claiming that GIH as borrower, and Gogo Inc. and the other subsidiaries as guarantors, breached the HPS Credit Agreement when GIH failed to pay an additional amount of approximately $
From time to time we may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We cannot predict with certainty the outcome of any litigation or the potential for future litigation. With respect to such legal proceedings, we accrue a loss when it is probable and its amount can be reasonably estimated. Regardless of the outcome of any particular litigation and the merits of any particular claim, litigation can have a material adverse impact on our Company due to, among other reasons, any injunctive relief granted, which could inhibit our ability to operate our business, amounts paid as damages or in settlement of any such matter, diversion of management resources and defense costs. The Company’s accrual for probable and estimable loss contingencies for the aforementioned litigation in which we are a defendant was $

Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may constitute “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding our industry, business strategy, acquisitions, plans, goals and expectations concerning our market position, international expansion, future technologies, future operations, margins, profitability, future efficiencies, capital expenditures, liquidity and capital resources and other financial and operating information. When used in this discussion, the words “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “budget,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “future” and the negative of these or similar terms and phrases are intended to identify forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Forward-looking statements reflect our current expectations regarding future events, results or outcomes. These expectations may or may not be realized. Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give you no assurance these expectations will prove to have been correct. Some of these expectations may be based upon assumptions, data or judgments that prove to be incorrect. Actual events, results and outcomes may differ materially from our expectations due to a variety of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors. Although it is not possible to identify all of these risks and factors, they include, among others, the following:
25
Any one of these factors or a combination of these factors could materially affect our financial condition or future results of operations and could influence whether any forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ultimately prove to be accurate. Our forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, and you should not place undue reliance on them. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made and unless required by law we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
In addition, while we do, from time to time, communicate with securities analysts, it is against our policy to disclose to them any material non-public information or other confidential information. Accordingly, stockholders should not assume that we agree with any statement or report issued by any analyst irrespective of the content of the statement or report. Thus, to the extent that reports issued by securities analysts contain any projections, forecasts, or opinions, such reports are not our responsibility.

The statements in this discussion regarding industry outlook, our expectations regarding our future performance, liquidity and capital resources and other non-historical statements in this discussion are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors” in the 2025 10-K.

Key Components of Consolidated Statements of Operations
There have been no material changes to our key components of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (“MD&A”) in our 2025 10-K.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, and related exposures. We base our estimates and assumptions on historical experience and other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. In some instances, we could reasonably use different accounting estimates, and in some instances, actual results could differ significantly from our estimates. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected.
We believe that the assumptions and estimates associated with our goodwill impairment analysis and the fair value of the Earnout Liability associated with the acquisition of Satcom Direct have the greatest potential impact on and are the most critical to fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results, and that they require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates described in the MD&A in our 2025 10-K.

Total revenue decreased to $213.2 million and $662.4 million, respectively, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026, as compared with $223.6 million and $679.9 million, respectively, for the prior-year periods.
Service revenue decreased to $182.7 million and $561.7 million, respectively, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026, as compared with $190.0 million and $582.5 million, respectively, for the prior-year periods due to a decrease in ATG service revenue, partially offset by an increase in broadband and narrowband satellite service revenue. See Note 3, “Revenue Recognition,” to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Equipment revenue decreased to $30.5 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2026, as compared with $33.6 million for the prior-year period due to a decrease in ATG units sold, partially offset by an increase in Gogo Galileo units sold. Equipment revenue increased to $100.6 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026, as compared with $97.4 million for the prior-year period due to an increase in Gogo Galileo units sold, partially offset by a decrease in ATG units sold. See Note 3, “Revenue Recognition,” to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
We expect service revenue to decline in the near term as a result of the expected decline in ATG and GEO services sold and increase in the future as additional aircraft come online from the launch of Gogo Galileo and Gogo 5G. We expect equipment revenue to increase in the future driven by growth in sales of our broadband products.

Cost of equipment revenue decreased 0.1% to $31.0 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2026, as compared with $31.0 million for the prior-year period due to a decrease in ATG units sold partially offset by an increase in Gogo Galileo units sold. Cost of equipment revenue increased 10.3% to $97.1 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026, as compared with $88.0 million for the prior-year period due to an increase in Gogo Galileo units sold.
We expect that our cost of service revenue will increase in the future driven by the growth in satellite broadband services and expect that our cost of equipment revenue will increase with growth in units sold.
31
Engineering, Design and Development Expenses:
Engineering, design and development expenses decreased 36.7% and 38.0% to $9.9 million and $26.1 million, respectively, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026, as compared with $15.7 million and $42.1 million, respectively, for the prior-year periods. The decrease for the three-month period is due to lower development spending. The decrease for the nine-month period is due to $6.4 million of lower development spending, $5.8 million of reimbursement of costs incurred in the prior year related to the FCC Reimbursement Program and lower personnel-related costs of $2.8 million.
We expect engineering, design and development expenses to increase in the near-term, driven by development spending on new programs, and to decrease as a percentage of service revenue in the long-term.
Sales and Marketing Expenses:
Sales and marketing expenses increased 2.8% to $13.8 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2026 as compared with $13.5 million for the prior-year period. Sales and marketing expenses decreased 4.2% to $40.6 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026 as compared with $42.4 million for the prior-year period due to lower marketing costs.
We expect sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of service revenue to remain relatively steady in the future.
General and Administrative Expenses:
General and administrative expenses decreased 1.1% and 9.6% to $27.6 million and $77.8 million, respectively, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026, as compared with $27.9 million and $86.0 million, respectively, for the prior-year periods. The decrease for the nine-month period is due to a $10.9 million decrease in personnel costs and $5.7 million decrease in acquisition and integration-related costs, partially offset by a $5.3 million increase in legal costs.
We expect general and administrative expenses to decrease over time as acquisition and integration activities complete.
Depreciation and Amortization:
Depreciation and amortization expense increased 8.2% and 9.3% to $16.5 million and $48.6 million, respectively, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026, as compared with $15.2 million and $44.5 million, respectively, for the prior-year periods due to depreciation of the Gogo 5G network.
We expect that our depreciation and amortization expense will remain relatively flat in the future.

Total other expense decreased to $23.8 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2026, as compared with $29.3 million for the prior-year period due to the change in fair value of the Earnout Liability from the Satcom Direct acquisition, partially offset by the reversal of a credit loss reserve in the prior-year period and the change in fair value of a convertible note investment. Total other expense decreased to $57.3 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026, as compared with $64.5 million for the prior-year period due to the change in fair value of the Earnout Liability from the Satcom Direct acquisition and the change in fair value of a convertible note investment, partially offset by a decrease in interest income, an increase in interest expense and the reversal of a credit loss reserve in the prior-year period.
We expect the change in fair value of the Earnout Liability to fluctuate in the future depending on performance of the Satcom Direct business. We expect our interest expense to fluctuate in the future based on changes in the variable rates associated with our indebtedness and the timing of prepayments associated with the 2026 Extended Term Loan Facility. The benefit we receive from our interest rate caps will decrease over time as our hedge notional amount decreases and the strike rate increases. See Note 8, “Long-Term Debt and Other Liabilities,” to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Income Taxes:
The effective income tax rate for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 was 51.8% and 62.8%, respectively, as compared with (242.8)% and 35.3%, respectively, for the prior-year periods. For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026, our income tax provision (benefit) was $(3.4) million and $13.3 million, respectively, due to a higher estimated annual effective tax rate, driven by the relative impact of permanent tax differences, including stock-based compensation and non-deductible officer’s compensation, as well as state income taxes. For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025, our income tax provision was $1.4 million and $12.5 million, respectively, due to the pre-tax income generated in the period. See Note 12, “Income Tax,” to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
We expect our income tax provision to increase in the long term as we continue to generate positive pre-tax income.

Non-GAAP Measures
In our discussion below, we discuss EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow, as defined below, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Management uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow for business planning purposes, including managing our business against internally projected results of operations and measuring our performance and liquidity. These supplemental performance measures also provide another basis for comparing period-to-period results by excluding potential differences caused by non-operational and unusual or non-recurring items. These supplemental performance measures may vary from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are not recognized measurements under GAAP; when analyzing our performance with EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA or liquidity with Free Cash Flow, as applicable, investors should (i) evaluate each adjustment in our reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measure, and the explanatory footnotes regarding those adjustments, (ii) use EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA in addition to, and not as an alternative to, net income (loss) attributable to common stock as a measure of operating results and (iii) use Free Cash Flow in addition to, and not as an alternative to, consolidated net cash provided by operating activities when evaluating our liquidity.
Definition and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
EBITDA represents net income (loss) attributable to common stock before interest expense, interest income, income taxes and depreciation and amortization expense.
Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted for (i) stock-based compensation expense, (ii) acquisition and integration-related costs, including amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up costs and changes in fair value of the Earnout Liability, (iii) litigation settlement accrual costs, (iv) change in fair value of convertible note investment, and (v) loss on extinguishment of debt. Our management believes that the use of Adjusted EBITDA eliminates items that management believes have less bearing on our operating performance, thereby highlighting trends in our core business which may not otherwise be apparent. It also provides an assessment of controllable expenses, which are indicators management uses to determine whether current spending decisions need to be adjusted in order to meet financial goals and achieve optimal financial performance.
We believe that the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense from Adjusted EBITDA provides a clearer view of the operating performance of our business and is appropriate given that grants made at a certain price and point in time do not necessarily reflect how our business is performing at any particular time. While we believe that investors should have information about any dilutive effect of outstanding options and the cost of that compensation, we also believe that stockholders should have the ability to consider our performance using a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes these costs and that management uses to evaluate our business.
Acquisition and integration-related costs include direct transaction costs, such as due diligence and advisory fees and certain compensation and integration-related expenses as well as the amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up costs. We believe it is useful for an understanding of our operating performance to exclude acquisition and integration-related costs from Adjusted EBITDA because they are outside of the ordinary course of our operations and do not reflect our operating performance.
We believe it is useful for an understanding of our operating performance to exclude the changes in fair value of the Earnout Liability related to the acquisition of Satcom Direct from Adjusted EBITDA because this activity is outside of the ordinary course of our operations and does not reflect our operating performance.
We believe it is useful for an understanding of our operating performance to exclude litigation settlement accrual costs from Adjusted EBITDA because this activity is outside of the ordinary course of our operations and does not reflect our operating performance.
We believe it is useful for an understanding of our operating performance to exclude the change in fair value of convertible note investment from Adjusted EBITDA because this activity is not related to our operating performance.
We believe it is useful for an understanding of our operating performance to exclude the loss on extinguishment of debt from Adjusted EBITDA because this activity is not related to our operating performance.
We also present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure because we believe that this measure provides investors, securities analysts and other users of our consolidated financial statements with important supplemental information with which to evaluate our performance and to enable them to assess our performance on the same basis as management.
34
Free Cash Flow represents net cash provided by operating activities, plus the proceeds received from the FCC Reimbursement Program and the interest rate caps, less purchases of property and equipment and the acquisition of intangible assets. We believe that Free Cash Flow provides meaningful information regarding our liquidity. Management believes that Free Cash Flow is useful for investors because it provides them with an important perspective on the cash available for strategic measures, after making necessary capital investments in property and equipment to support the Company’s ongoing business operations and provides them with the same measure that management uses as the basis for making capital allocation decisions.

Material limitations of Non-GAAP measures
Although EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are measurements frequently used by investors and securities analysts in their evaluations of companies, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow each have limitations as an analytical
35
tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for, or more meaningful than, amounts determined in accordance with GAAP.
Some of these limitations include:

We have historically financed our growth and cash needs primarily through the issuance of common stock, debt and cash from operating activities. We continually evaluate our ongoing capital needs in light of increasing demand for our services, capacity requirements, evolving user expectations regarding the in-flight connectivity experience, evolving technologies in our industry and related strategic, operational and technological opportunities. Our capital management activities include the assessment of opportunities to raise additional capital in the public and private markets, utilizing one or more of the types of capital raising transactions through which we have historically financed our growth and cash needs, as well as other means of capital raising not previously used by us.
Liquidity:
Based on our current plans, we expect our cash and cash equivalents, cash flows provided by operating activities and access to the Revolving Facility and capital markets will be sufficient to meet the cash requirements of our business, capital expenditure requirements and debt maturities for at least the next twelve months and thereafter for the foreseeable future.
36
On September 5, 2023, we announced a share repurchase program that grants the Company authority to repurchase up to $50 million of shares of the Company’s common stock. Repurchases may be made at management's discretion from time to time on the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, or by other means, including through the use of trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) in accordance with applicable securities laws and other restrictions, including Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act. The repurchase program has no time limit and may be suspended for periods or discontinued at any time and does not obligate us to purchase any shares of our common stock. The timing and total amount of stock repurchases will depend upon business, economic and market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, prevailing stock prices, and other considerations. We do not expect to incur debt to fund the share repurchase program. No shares were repurchased during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. As of September 30, 2026, approximately $12.1 million remains available under the share repurchase program.
As detailed in Note 8, “Long-Term Debt and Other Liabilities,” to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, on April 30, 2021, GIH entered into the 2021 Credit Agreement (as amended on December 3, 2024 and November 6, 2026) with Gogo, the lenders and issuing banks party thereto and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent, which provides for the 2021 Term Loan Facility in an aggregate principal amount of $725.0 million, issued with a discount of 0.5%, and the Revolving Facility, which includes a letter of credit sub-facility. The 2021 Revolving Facility matures on December 3, 2029 (subject to such maturity date springing to the date that is 90 days prior to the then-current maturity date of (a) the 2021 Term Loan Facility under the 2021 Credit Agreement and (b) the HPS Term Loan Facility under the HPS Credit Agreement under certain conditions). As of the Closing Date, the 2021 Term Loan Facility consists of two tranches: the Initial Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $33.4 million, which mature on April 30, 2028; and the 2026 Extended Term Loans, in an aggregate principal amount of $544.4 million, which mature on October 31, 2030.
The Initial Term Loans amortized in quarterly installments equal to 1% of the aggregate initial principal amount thereof per annum, with the remaining balance payable upon final maturity of the Initial Term Loans. There are no amortization payments under the Revolving Facility. On May 3, 2023, the Company prepaid $100 million of the outstanding principal amount of the Initial Term Loans. This prepayment satisfied the required amortization payments for the remaining term of the Initial Term Loans. The 2026 Extended Term Loans amortize in quarterly installments commencing on March 31, 2027 equal to 0.75% of their initial aggregate principal amount through and including March 31, 2028, 1.125% thereafter through and including March 31, 2029 and 1.25% thereafter, subject to reduction for applicable prepayments, with the remaining balance payable at maturity. The third amendment includes a mechanic for holders of the Initial Term Loan Facility to convert their Initial Term Loans into 2026 Extended Term Loans within a period of time after the Closing Date, with such conversion to be effective as of the Closing Date. GIH is required to prepay $25.0 million of the 2026 Extended Term Loans on the Closing Date (with any additional holders of Initial Term Loans converting after the Closing Date to receive their pro rata share of such amount), $30.0 million of the 2026 Extended Term Loans on or prior to December 31, 2026 and an additional $20.0 million of 2026 Extended Term Loans on or prior to December 31, 2027, in each case subject to reduction for voluntary prepayments and repurchases. These additional mandatory prepayments apply only to the 2026 Extended Term Loans.
As also detailed in Note 8, “Long-Term Debt and Other Liabilities,” on December 3, 2024, the Company and GIH entered into a credit agreement (the “HPS Credit Agreement” and together with the 2021 Credit Agreement, the “Credit Agreements”) with HPS Investment Partners, LLC, as the administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto, which provides for a term loan credit facility (the “HPS Term Loan Facility” and together with the 2021 Facilities, the “Facilities”) in an aggregate principal amount of $250 million. The HPS Term Loan Facility, which is subject to mandatory prepayments under certain circumstances, amortizes in quarterly installments equal to one percent of the aggregate initial principal amount thereof per annum, with the remaining balance payable upon final maturity of the HPS Term Loan Facility on April 30, 2028. In accordance with the HPS Credit Agreement, the Company paid $21.1 million of the outstanding principal amount of the HPS Term Loan Facility in April 2026.
The Credit Agreements contain customary events of default, which, if any of them occurred, would permit or require the principal, premium, if any, and interest on all of the then outstanding obligations under the Facilities to be due and payable immediately and the commitments under the Revolving Facility to be terminated.
The Credit Agreements contain covenants that limit the ability of GIH and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness. Further, market conditions and/or our financial performance may limit our access to additional sources of equity or debt financing, or our ability to pursue potential strategic alternatives. As a result, we may be unable to finance the growth of our business to the extent that our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and cash generated through operating activities prove insufficient or we are unable to raise additional financing through the issuance of equity, permitted incurrences of debt (by us or by GIH and its subsidiaries), or the pursuit of potential strategic alternatives.
In May 2021, we purchased interest rate caps with an aggregate notional amount of $650.0 million for $8.6 million. We receive payments in the amount calculated pursuant to the caps for any period in which the daily compounded SOFR rate plus a credit spread adjustment recommended by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee of 0.26% increases beyond the applicable strike rate. The termination date of the cap agreements is July 31, 2027. The aggregate notional amount of the interest rate caps as of September 30, 2026 is $200.0 million. The notional amounts of the interest rate caps periodically decrease over the life of the
37
caps with the latest reduction of $100.0 million having occurred on July 31, 2025. While the interest rate caps are intended to limit our interest rate exposure under our variable rate indebtedness, which includes the Facilities, if our variable rate indebtedness does not decrease in proportion to the periodic decreases in the notional amount hedged under the interest rate caps, then the portion of such indebtedness that will be effectively hedged against possible increases in interest rates will decrease. In addition, the strike prices periodically increase over the life of the caps. As a result, the extent to which the interest rate caps will limit our interest rate exposure will decrease in the future.
For additional information on the interest rate caps, see Note 9, “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026, net cash provided by operating activities was $51.4 million as compared with cash provided by operating activities of $116.0 million in the prior-year period. The principal contributors to the year-over-year change in operating cash flows were:
Cash flows used in Investing Activities:
Cash used in investing activities was $20.8 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026, due to the $45.5 million of capital expenditures noted below, partially offset by $21.4 million of proceeds received from the FCC Reimbursement Program related to the reimbursement of capital expenditures and $3.3 million of proceeds received from interest rate caps.
Cash used in investing activities was $23.5 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025, due to $34.7 million of capital expenditures noted below and a $1.6 million payment for working capital adjustments relating to the purchase of Satcom Direct, partially offset by $9.1 million of proceeds received from interest rate caps and $3.8 million of proceeds received from the FCC Reimbursement Program associated with the reimbursement of capital expenditures.
Cash flows used in Financing Activities:
Cash used in financing activities for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026 was $65.2 million, due to the $40.0 million payment related to the 2025 financial performance milestones of the Earnout Liability, $23.0 million of principal payments on the HPS Term Loan Facility and $2.2 million of stock-based compensation activities.
Cash used in financing activities for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 was $1.1 million, due to principal payments on the HPS Term Loan Facility, partially offset by proceeds from stock-based compensation activities.
38
Capital Expenditures
Our operations require capital expenditures associated with the expansion of our ATG network and data centers. We capitalize software development costs related to network technology solutions and new product/service offerings. We also capitalize costs related to the build-out of our office locations.
Capital expenditures increased to $45.5 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026, as compared with $34.7 million for the prior-year period due to the build out of the LTE network.
We expect that our capital expenditures will decrease in the future as the build out of the LTE network nears completion.
39
Other
Contractual Commitments: We have agreements with various vendors under which we have remaining commitments to purchase hardware components and development services. Such commitments will become payable as we receive the hardware components or as development services are provided. See Note 15, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Leases and Cell Site Contracts: We have lease agreements relating to certain facilities and equipment, which are considered operating leases. See Note 14, “Leases,” to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Our exposure to market risk is currently confined to our cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and debt. We have not used derivative financial instruments for speculation or trading purposes. The primary objectives of our investment activities are to preserve our capital for the purpose of funding operations while maximizing the income we receive from our investments without significantly increasing risk. To achieve these objectives, our investment policy allows us to maintain a portfolio of cash equivalents and short-term investments through a variety of securities, including U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. government agency securities, and money market funds. Our cash and cash equivalents as of both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 primarily included amounts in bank deposit accounts, U.S. Treasury securities and money market funds with U.S. Government and U.S. Treasury securities. The primary objective of our investment policy is to preserve capital and maintain liquidity while limiting concentration and counterparty risk.
The risk inherent in our market risk sensitive instruments and positions is the potential loss arising from interest rates as discussed below. The sensitivity analyses presented do not consider the effects that such adverse changes may have on the overall economic activity, nor do they consider additional actions we may take to mitigate our exposure to such changes. Actual results may differ.
Interest Rate Risk: We are exposed to interest rate risk on our variable rate indebtedness, which includes borrowings under each of the 2021 Facilities (if any) and the HPS Term Loan Facility. We assess our market risks based on changes in interest rates utilizing a sensitivity analysis that measures the potential impact on earnings and cash flows based on a hypothetical one percentage point change in interest rates. As of September 30, 2026, we had interest rate cap agreements to hedge a portion of our exposure to interest rate movements of our variable rate debt and to manage our interest expense. Currently, we receive payments in the amounts calculated pursuant to the caps for any period in which the daily compounded SOFR rate plus a credit spread adjustment recommended by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee of 0.26% increases beyond the applicable strike rate. The termination date of the cap agreements is July 31, 2027. Over the life of the interest rate caps, the notional amounts of the caps periodically decrease, while the applicable strike prices increase.
The notional amount of outstanding debt associated with interest rate cap agreements as of September 30, 2026 was $200.0 million. Based on our September 30, 2026 outstanding variable rate debt balance, a hypothetical one percentage point change in the applicable interest rate would impact our annual interest expense by approximately $6.6 million for the next twelve-month period. Excluding the impact of our interest rate caps, a hypothetical one percentage point change in the applicable interest rate would impact our annual interest expense by approximately $8.3 million for the next twelve-month period.
Our earnings are affected by changes in interest rates due to the impact those changes have on interest income generated from our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. We believe we have minimal interest rate risk as a 10% decrease in the average interest rate on our portfolio would have reduced interest income for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 by immaterial amounts.
Inflation: We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our results of operations. However, there can be no assurance that our business will not be affected by inflation in the future.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures.
Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of September 30, 2026. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2026 due to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting which, as previously disclosed in Part II, Item 9A “Controls and Procedures” in the 2025 10-K, existed as of December 31, 2025 and, as discussed below, continued to exist as of September 30, 2026.
Notwithstanding the ineffective disclosure controls and procedures due to the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The following material weakness disclosed in the 2025 10-K remains unremediated as of September 30, 2026:
41
Remediation Plan for Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As previously reported, with the oversight of the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors, we began implementing in 2025, and continued implementing throughout 2026, including in the third quarter of 2026, a remediation plan to address the material weakness described above. Action items include the following:
While we believe that our efforts have improved our internal control over financial reporting, remediation of the material weakness as of September 30, 2026 is expected to require further strengthening of our internal control environment and substantial effort throughout 2026, including:
We will test the effectiveness of the new and existing controls in future periods. The material weakness cannot be considered completely remediated until the applicable controls have been implemented and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.
Except as described above, there have been no changes to our internal control over financial reporting in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
42
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are subject to lawsuits arising out of the conduct of our business. See Note 15, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of litigation matters.
From time to time we may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We cannot predict with certainty the outcome of any litigation or the potential for future litigation. Regardless of the outcome of any particular litigation and the merits of any particular claim, litigation can have a material adverse impact on our Company due to, among other reasons, any injunctive relief granted, which could inhibit our ability to operate our business, amounts paid as damages or in settlement of any such matter, diversion of management resources and defense costs.
