Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Gogo Inc. reported Q1 2026 net income of $13.1 million, up modestly from $12.0 million a year earlier, on slightly lower revenue of $226.3 million versus $230.3 million. Service revenue declined while equipment revenue increased, keeping operating income relatively stable at $31.7 million.

Cash and cash equivalents were $103.5 million with total assets of $1.28 billion. Long-term debt remained high, with the 2021 and HPS term loans totaling about $1.06 billion before discounts. Operating cash flow swung to a use of $7.2 million from positive $32.5 million a year earlier, largely due to working capital changes.

The company highlighted an FCC Reimbursement Program approval of up to $334 million, with $41.2 million recorded as a receivable and related offsets to asset balances. Gogo also carries a fair-valued Satcom Direct earnout liability of $67.0 million and is involved in ongoing litigation with SmartSky, including a jury verdict of $22.7 million for patent infringement, against which it has recorded a $10.0 million accrual while it continues to contest the outcome.

Insights

Profit steady, cash generation weaker, with leverage and litigation key watchpoints.

Gogo delivered Q1 2026 net income of $13.1M, slightly above $12.0M a year earlier, despite revenue easing to $226.3M. Mix shifted toward equipment sales while total operating expenses were broadly flat, keeping operating income near $31.7M.

Balance sheet quality is mixed. Cash stood at $103.5M, but term loans totaled roughly $1.06B before discounts, with fair values well below carrying value, reflecting higher required yields. Operating cash flow turned negative $7.2M, mainly from higher prepaid assets, contract assets, and lower accrued liabilities, which bears watching if repeated.

The $334M FCC Reimbursement Program remains important, with $41.2M recognized as receivables and sizable offsets to property, intangibles, and other assets. The Satcom Direct Earnout Liability of $67.0M and the SmartSky jury verdict of $22.7M introduce valuation and legal overhangs, though only $10.0M is accrued so far while post-trial motions proceed.

FCC Reimbursement Program regulatory
"the FCC approved up to approximately $334 million in reimbursements to the Company"
An FCC reimbursement program is a government-run process in which the U.S. Federal Communications Commission repays eligible companies or organizations for specific telecom-related costs mandated or supported by federal policy, such as network upgrades, relocation work, or consumer subsidy efforts. For investors, these reimbursements can directly affect a company’s cash flow and project economics—like a partial refund on required expenses—and can reduce regulatory risk or change the timing and size of expected costs and revenues.
Earnout Liability financial
"Change in fair value of Earnout Liability | | | ( 4,943 )"
A future payment a buyer has agreed to make after an acquisition if the purchased business hits certain performance targets; it is recorded as a liability because it may become an obligation. Investors care because it affects a company's reported debt and potential cash outflows—similar to promising a bonus if a car you bought later reaches a set mileage, it shifts risk and can change valuation and earnings depending on whether the targets are met.
interest rate caps financial
"we purchased interest rate caps with an aggregate notional amount of $650.0 million"
An interest rate cap is a contractual ceiling that limits how high an interest rate can rise on a loan, bond or other floating-rate exposure, and can also be bought as a financial contract that pays if rates exceed a set level. It matters to investors because it reduces the risk of sharply higher borrowing costs or falling bond prices—think of it as a protective roof that keeps payments or losses from climbing past a known limit.

Gogo Inc. and Subsidiaries

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-month period ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

We had one class of common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

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-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the weighted average number of shares excluded from the computation was 51.9 million and 28.7 million, respectively.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

3. Revenue Recognition

Remaining performance obligations

As of March 31, 2026, the aggregate amount of the transaction price in our contracts allocated to the remaining unsatisfied performance obligations (“RPO”) was approximately $522 million and excludes consideration from contracts that have an original duration of one year or less. Approximately $512 million of the RPO primarily represents connectivity and entertainment service revenues which are recognized as services are provided, which is expected to occur through the remaining term of the contracts. Our contracts vary in length and generally have terms of two to ten years. We expect to recognize approximately 38% of our connectivity and entertainment service RPO within the next year, approximately 47% in one to five years and the remaining 15% in five to ten years. The remaining $10 million of the RPO represents future equipment revenue that is expected to be recognized primarily within the next three years as equipment is shipped.

Our current and non-current deferred revenue balances totaled $37.0 million and $36.0 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Deferred revenue includes, among other things, prepayments for equipment and subscription connectivity products. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recognized revenue of $13.5 million and $16.8 million, respectively, that was previously included in the beginning balance of deferred revenue.

4. Government Assistance

Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) Reimbursement Program

On July 15, 2022, the Company was notified that it was approved for participation in the FCC Reimbursement Program, designed to reimburse providers of advanced communications services for reasonable costs incurred in the required removal, replacement, and disposal of covered communications equipment or services, that have been deemed to pose a national security risk, from their networks. Pursuant to the FCC Reimbursement Program, the FCC approved up to approximately $334 million in reimbursements to the Company to cover documented and approved costs to (i) remove and securely destroy all ZTE communications equipment and services in the Company’s terrestrial U.S. networks and replace such equipment and (ii) remove and replace certain equipment installed on aircraft operated by the Company’s ATG customers that is not compatible with the terrestrial equipment that will replace ZTE equipment. Due to an initial shortfall in the amount appropriated by Congress to fund the FCC Reimbursement

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.

The carrying value of goodwill was $193.2 million as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

2021 Credit Agreement

On April 30, 2021, Gogo and Gogo Intermediate Holdings LLC (“GIH”) (a wholly owned subsidiary of Gogo) entered into a credit agreement (the “Original 2021 Credit Agreement,” and, as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “2021 Credit Agreement”) among Gogo, GIH, the lenders and issuing banks party thereto and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent, which provides for (i) a term loan credit facility (the “2021 Term Loan Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $725.0 million, issued with a discount of 0.5%, and (ii) a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility” and together with the 2021 Term Loan Facility, the “2021 Facilities”) of up to $100.0 million, which includes a letter of credit sub-facility. The 2021 Term Loan Facility matures on April 30, 2028.

On December 3, 2024, Gogo and GIH entered into a second amendment to the 2021 Credit Agreement, by and among, Gogo, GIH, guarantors party thereto, Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto, among other purposes, (a) increase the aggregate principal amount of revolving commitments available under the 2021 Credit Agreement to an aggregate amount of revolving commitments equal to $122 million and (b) extend the maturity date of the revolving facility to 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).

The 2021 Term Loan Facility 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 2021 Term Loan Facility. There are no amortization payments under the Revolving Facility.

The 2021 Term Loan Facility bears annual interest at a floating rate measured by reference to, at GIH’s option, either (i) an adjusted term secured overnight financing rate as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“SOFR”) (subject to a floor of 0.75%) plus an applicable margin of 3.75% and a credit spread adjustment of approximately 0.11%, 0.26% or 0.43% per annum based on 1-month, 3-month or 6-month term SOFR, respectively or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin of 2.75%.

Loans outstanding under the Revolving Facility bear annual interest at a floating rate measured by reference to, at GIH’s option, either (i) an adjusted term SOFR rate (subject to a floor of 0.00%) plus an applicable margin ranging from 3.50% to 4.00% per annum depending on GIH’s senior secured first lien net leverage ratio or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.50% to 3.00% per annum depending on GIH’s senior secured first lien net leverage ratio. Additionally, unused commitments under the Revolving Facility are subject to a fee ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% per annum depending on GIH’s senior secured first lien net leverage ratio. As of March 31, 2026, the fee for unused commitments under the Revolving Facility was 0.25% and the applicable margin was 4.00% for SOFR rate loans and 3.00% for alternate rate loans.

The 2021 Facilities may be prepaid at GIH’s option at any time without premium or penalty (other than customary breakage costs), subject to minimum principal payment amount requirements. On May 3, 2023, the Company prepaid $100 million of the outstanding principal amount of the 2021 Term Loan Facility. This prepayment satisfied the required amortization payments for the remaining term of the 2021 Term Loan Facility.

Subject to certain exceptions and de minimis thresholds, the 2021 Term Loan Facility is subject to mandatory prepayments in an amount equal to:

100% of the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales, insurance recovery and condemnation events, subject to reduction to 50% and 0% if specified senior secured first lien net leverage ratio targets are met;
100% of the net cash proceeds of certain debt offerings; and

50% of annual excess cash flow (as defined in the 2021 Credit Agreement), subject to reduction to 25% and 0% if specified senior secured first lien net leverage ratio targets are met.

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 Revolving Facility includes a financial covenant set at a maximum senior secured first lien net leverage ratio of 7.50:1.00, which will apply if the outstanding amount of loans and unreimbursed letter of credit drawings thereunder at the end of any fiscal quarter exceeds 35% of the aggregate of all commitments thereunder.

The 2021 Credit Agreement contains 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 2021 Facilities to be due and payable immediately and the commitments under the Revolving Facility to be terminated.

The Revolving Facility is available for working capital and general corporate purposes of GIH and its subsidiaries and was undrawn as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the outstanding principal amount of the 2021 Term Loan Facility was $601.4 million, the unaccreted debt discount was $1.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively, and the net carrying amount was $600.3 million and $600.2 million, respectively.

We paid approximately $21.6 million of loan origination and financing costs related to the 2021 Facilities, which are being accounted for as deferred financing costs on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized over the terms of the 2021 Facilities. Total amortization expense was $0.8 million and $0.7 million, respectively, for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 and is included in interest expense in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the balance of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the 2021 Facilities was $6.7 million and $7.4 million, respectively.

On April 30, 2021, Gogo, GIH, and each direct and indirect wholly-owned U.S. restricted subsidiary of GIH (Gogo and such subsidiaries collectively, the “Guarantors”) entered into a guarantee agreement (the “Guarantee Agreement”) in favor of Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”), whereby GIH and the Guarantors guarantee the obligations under the 2021 Facilities and certain other secured obligations as set forth in the Guarantee Agreement, and GIH and the Guarantors entered into a collateral agreement (the “Collateral Agreement”), in favor of the 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 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).

HPS Credit Agreement

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”) in an aggregate principal amount of $250 million. The HPS Term Loan Facility 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.

The HPS Term Loan Facility bears annual interest at a floating rate measured by reference to, at the Company’s option, either (i) an adjusted term SOFR (subject to a floor of 1.00%) plus an initial applicable margin of 6.00%, which is subject to two leverage-based step-downs of up to 0.25% each or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin of 5.00%, which is subject to two leverage-based step-downs of up to 0.25% each.

The HPS Term Loan Facility may be prepaid at the Company’s option, at any time, without premium or penalty (other than customary breakage costs, and except that (a) during the first 12 months following the closing of the HPS Credit Agreement, certain prepayments of the HPS Term Loan Facility are subject to a 3.00% prepayment premium and (b) during the period from 12 months to

Gogo Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued)

 

24 months following the closing of the HPS Credit Agreement, certain prepayments of the HPS Term Loan Facility are subject to a 1.00% prepayment premium), subject to minimum principal repayment amount requirements.

Subject to certain exceptions and de minimis thresholds, the HPS Term Loan Facility is subject to mandatory prepayments in an amount equal to:

100% of the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales, insurance recovery and condemnation events;
100% of the net cash proceeds of certain debt offerings; and
75% of annual excess cash flow (as defined in the HPS Credit Agreement), subject to reduction to 50% if specified senior secured first lien net leverage ratio targets are met.

The HPS Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants. The negative covenants include restrictions on, among other things: the incurrence of indebtedness or issuance of disqualified equity interests; the incurrence or existence of liens; consolidations or mergers; activities of the Company; the making of investments, loans, advances, guarantees or acquisitions; asset sales; the making of dividends or other distributions on equity; the purchase, redemption or retirement of capital stock; payment or redemption of certain junior indebtedness; activities of Federal Communications Commission license holders; entry into other agreements that restrict the ability to incur liens securing the HPS Term Loan Facility.

The HPS Credit Agreement contains 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 HPS Term Loan Facility to be due and payable immediately.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the outstanding principal amount of the HPS Term Loan Facility was $246.3 million and $246.9 million, respectively, the unaccreted debt discount was $3.3 million and $3.6 million, respectively, and the net carrying amount was $243.0 million and $243.3 million, respectively. 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.

We paid approximately $2.2 million of loan origination and financing costs related to the HPS Credit Agreement which are being accounted for as deferred financing costs on our consolidated balance sheets and are amortized over the term of the HPS Credit Agreement. Total amortization expense was $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 and is included in interest expense in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 the balance of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the HPS Credit Agreement was $1.4 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

On December 3, 2024, Gogo, GIH, and the Guarantors entered into a guarantee agreement (the “HPS Guarantee Agreement”) in favor of HPS Investment Partners, LLC, as collateral agent (the “HPS Collateral Agent”), whereby GIH and the Guarantors guarantee the obligations under the HPS Term Loan Facility and certain other secured obligations as set forth in the HPS Guarantee Agreement, and GIH and the Guarantors entered into a collateral agreement (the “HPS Collateral Agreement”), in favor of the 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 HPS Term Loan Facility and certain other secured obligations as set forth in the HPS Collateral Agreement. The liens granted under the HPS Term Loan Facility are subject to an intercreditor agreement and are pari passu with the liens granted under the 2021 Term Loan Facility.

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 $650.0 million for $8.6 million. The cost of the interest rate caps will be amortized to interest expense using the caplet method, from the effective date through termination date. 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 Rate Committee of 0.26% increases beyond the applicable strike rate. The notional amounts of the interest rate caps periodically decrease over the life of the caps.

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. No gains or losses of our cash flow hedges were considered to be ineffective and reclassified from other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. We estimate that approximately $1.3 million currently recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will be recognized in earnings over the next 12 months. We assess the effectiveness of the hedges on an ongoing basis, and the remaining outstanding caps are still considered to be highly effective, and remain designated as a cash flow hedge. Cash flows from interest rate caps are classified in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as investing activities.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, we recorded a decrease in fair value on the interest rate caps of $0.1 million, net of an immaterial amount of tax, and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, we recorded a decrease in fair value on the interest rate caps of $3.0 million, net of tax of $0.8 million. Increases and decreases in fair value on interest rate caps above exclude amortization of the purchase price paid for the interest rate caps.

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).

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.

11. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

A three-tier fair value hierarchy has been established which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:

Level 1 - defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
Level 2 - defined as observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and
Level 3 - defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

Refer to Note 9, “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” for fair value information relating to our interest rate caps.

Earnout Liability:

In connection with the acquisition of Satcom Direct, LLC and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Satcom Direct”) in December 2024, the purchase price included up to an additional $225 million in potential earnout payments of cash and/or common stock of the Company tied to realizing certain financial performance milestones over a four-year period following the acquisition (the “Earnout Liability”). The fair value of the Earnout Liability was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation based on future gross profit projections of Satcom Direct, gross profit volatility rates of comparable companies and a risk adjusted discount rate. The fair value measurement was based on significant unobservable inputs and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. The Earnout Liability has an estimated fair value of $67.0 million and $71.9 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. In April 2026, the Company paid cash of $40.0 million related to the 2025 financial performance milestones of the Earnout Liability.

Investment in Convertible Note:

On February 26, 2024, Gogo invested $5 million in a convertible note offering (“Investment in Convertible Note”). The Investment in Convertible Note accrues interest at 5% per annum, payable upon maturity of the note or upon conversion, and matures two years after the date of issuance. In February 2026, the maturity date of the note was extended for two additional years. In connection with the amendment, the Company was issued warrants to purchase common stock of the issuer. We have elected to measure our Investment in Convertible Note, including the warrants, using the fair value option and record changes in fair value, including accrued interest, in Other (income) expense, net on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The

Company elected the fair value option for the Investment in Convertible Note to eliminate complexities of applying certain accounting models.

The Investment in Convertible Note is included in Other non-current assets and in Prepaid and other current assets on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and the reconciliation of beginning and ending balances were as follows (in thousands):

Debt:

As of March 31, 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 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 entity with a credit rating similar to ours and that would allow such an entity to achieve sufficient cash inflows to cover the scheduled cash outflows under the 2021 Term Loan Facility and HPS Term Loan Facility.

The fair value and carrying value of debt as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were as follows (in thousands):

Carrying value of the HPS Term Loan Facility reflects the unaccreted debt discount of $3.3 million and $3.6 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. See Note 8, “Long-Term Debt and Other Liabilities,” for further information.

12. Income Tax

The effective income tax rates for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were 37.8% and 36.6%, respectively. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, our effective income tax rate was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to state income taxes, the establishment of a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, stock-based compensation, and nondeductible officer’s compensation. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, our effective income tax rate was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to state income taxes and stock-based compensation.

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 March 31, 2026 that these deferred tax assets will not be realized.

18


Gogo Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued)

 

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, United Kingdom, Australia, Brazil and Singapore. With a few exceptions, as of March 31, 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. No penalties or interest related to uncertain tax positions were recorded for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, and as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we did not have a liability recorded for interest or potential penalties.

13. Stock-Based Compensation and Retirement Plans

Stock-Based Compensation — As of March 31, 2026, we maintained the 2024 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2024 Plan”). The 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.

Additionally, in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Satcom Direct on December 3, 2024, 2,275,000 shares were granted, consisting of a combination of RSUs and performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) (together, the “Inducement Awards”) by the Compensation Committee. The RSUs will vest in equal annual installments over the five-year period following the grant date. The PSUs are subject to performance-based vesting and will vest when the performance-based vesting conditions are met. Though not awarded pursuant to the 2024 Plan, the Inducement Awards have been issued subject to the terms and conditions of the 2024 Plan.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, no options to purchase shares of common stock were granted, options to purchase 10,015 shares of common stock were exercised, no options to purchase shares of common stock were forfeited and 34,092 options to purchase shares of common stock expired.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, 1,827,850 RSUs were granted, 575,396 RSUs vested and 146,777 RSUs were forfeited. The fair value of the RSUs granted during the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 was approximately $8.5 million, which will generally be recognized over a period of four years.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, 101,362 deferred stock units were granted and none were vested or forfeited. The fair value of the deferred stock units granted during the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 was approximately $0.4 million, which will generally be recognized over a period of 12 months.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, 49,822 shares of common stock were issued under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

We match contributions towards the 401(k) plan and international defined contribution plans, subject to annual limitations. Our matching contributions were $0.8 million and $1.1 million, respectively, during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

14. Leases

Gogo Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued)

 

Operating and Financing Leases — We determine whether a contract contains a lease at contract inception and calculate the lease liability and right-of-use asset using our incremental borrowing rate. We have operating lease agreements primarily related to cell sites, data centers, satellites and office buildings. Our cell site leases generally have terms of five to ten years, with renewal options for an additional five to 25 years. For certain cell sites, the renewal options are deemed to be reasonably certain to be exercised. Our data center leases have original terms between one to four years with unlimited one-year renewal options, some of which are reasonably certain to be exercised. Our building leases have original terms of ten years, with renewal options for an additional five years. We recognize operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As of March 31, 2026, there were no significant leases which had not commenced.

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 LitigationOn 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 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 $22.7 million. A one-day bench trial was held on March 4, 2026, to address Gogo’s inequitable conduct defense. Post-trial briefs on the jury trial were filed on March 18, 2026, and post-trial briefs on the bench trial were filed on March 30, 2026. Briefing is expected to be completed on these motions by May 8, 2026. We continue to vigorously defend our position in the infringement suit challenging both the verdict and the amount of the award in the trial court and will do so in the appellate court if necessary. The outcome of the underlying litigation is inherently uncertain. No judgment has been entered and Gogo has not paid any portion of the award.

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. Under a schedule agreed upon by the parties, fact discovery and claim construction proceedings will be substantially completed by June 26, 2026, and expert discovery by September 25, 2026, with dispositive motions to follow. A trial date has been scheduled for March 8, 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

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued)

 

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. That motion is still pending. On April 21, 2026, at SmartSky’s request, the parties filed a joint motion to modify the case schedule with fact discovery set to be completed by October 2, 2026 and expert discovery by January 31, 2027, with dispositive motions to follow. That motion is still pending and a trial date has not been set. We will vigorously defend our position in this lawsuit. The outcome of the litigation is inherently uncertain.

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 $10.0 million and $11.5 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and is recorded in Accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

other risks and factors listed under “Risk Factors” in the 2025 10-K.

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.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion and analysis is intended to help the reader understand our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources. You should read this discussion in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the related notes contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Unless the context otherwise indicates or requires, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” “Gogo,” and the “Company,” as used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, refer to Gogo Inc. and its directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries as a combined entity, except where otherwise stated or where it is clear that the terms refer only to Gogo Inc. exclusive of its subsidiaries.

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. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any forward-looking statements.

Our fiscal year ends December 31 and, unless otherwise noted, references to “years” or “fiscal” are for fiscal years ended December 31. See “ Results of Operations.”

Company Overview

Gogo 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 ATG technology and integrated LEO and 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.

Factors and Trends Affecting Our Results of Operations

We believe that our operating and business performance is driven by various factors that affect the business and military/government aviation industries, including trends affecting the travel industry and trends affecting the customer bases that we target, as well as factors that affect wireless Internet service providers and general macroeconomic factors. Key factors that may affect our future performance include:

our ability to implement on a timely basis and costs associated with the ongoing implementation of our technology roadmap, including installation of and/or upgrades to the ATG Broadband technologies we currently offer, Gogo 5G, Gogo Galileo, LTE and any other next generation or other new technology that we develop or acquire;
our ability to manage issues and related costs that may arise in connection with the implementation of our technology roadmap, including technological issues and related remediation efforts, technological shifts, failures or delays on the part of antenna, chipset, and other equipment developers and providers or satellite network providers, some of which are single-source;
our ability to license additional spectrum and make other improvements to our ATG network and operations as technology and user expectations change;
the number of aircraft in service in our markets, including consolidations or changes in fleet size by one or more of our large-fleet customers;
the economic environment and other trends that affect both business and leisure aviation travel, including the impact on demand for aviation travel of increases in fuel costs and other inflationary pressures stemming from the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East;
disruptions to supply chains in the aviation industry and installations of our equipment driven by, among other things, labor shortages;
the extent of our customers’ adoption of our products and services, which is affected by, among other things, willingness to pay for the services that we provide, the quality and reliability of our products and services, changes in technology and competition from current competitors and new market entrants;
our ability to engage suppliers of equipment components and network services on a timely basis and on commercially reasonable terms, including, without limitation, electronic components such as semiconductor memory and storage products (among others, dynamic random access memory (“DRAM”) and NAND flash memory), due to the surging buildout of artificial intelligence-related computing infrastructure;

25


 

our ability to fully utilize portions of our deferred income tax assets;
changes in laws, regulations, policies and interpretations affecting our business, the business of our customers and suppliers globally, including changes that impact the design of our equipment and our ability to obtain required certifications for our equipment and services, and telecommunications services globally, including those affecting our ability to maintain our licenses for ATG spectrum in the United States, obtain sufficient rights to use additional ATG spectrum and/or other sources of broadband connectivity to deliver our services, including Gogo Galileo and Gogo 5G, expand our service offerings and manage our network; and
the enactment of, and proposals for, trade protection measures by the United States as well as other countries (including United States “reciprocal” tariffs that began in 2025), including increases or changes in tariffs and trade barriers, changes in government policies and international trade arrangements, geopolitical volatility, and global macroeconomic conditions, or uncertainty regarding the impact of proposed or future trade protection measures, may affect our results of operations in some markets.

Key Business Metrics

Our management regularly reviews financial and operating metrics, including the following key business metrics, to evaluate the performance of our business and our success in executing our business plan, make decisions regarding resource allocation and corporate strategies, and evaluate forward-looking projections.

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 $226.3 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, as compared with $230.3 million for the prior-year period.

Service revenue decreased to $187.7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, as compared with $198.6 million for the prior-year period due to a decrease in ATG units online.

Equipment revenue increased to $38.6 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, as compared with $31.7 million for the prior-year period due to an increase in Gogo Galileo units sold.

We expect service revenue to decline in the near term as a result of the expected decline in ATG services sold and increase in the future as additional aircraft come online due to the launch of Gogo 5G and Gogo Galileo. We expect equipment revenue to increase in the future driven by growth in sales of Gogo 5G and Gogo Galileo units.

Cost of service revenue increased 4.5% to $98.3 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, as compared with $94.0 million for the prior-year period due to an increase in satellite broadband costs.

Cost of equipment revenue increased 19.3% to $35.0 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, as compared with $29.3 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. We expect that our cost of equipment revenue will increase with growth in units sold, including Gogo 5G and Gogo Galileo units, due to the launch of those products.

Engineering, Design and Development Expenses:

Engineering, design and development expenses decreased 53.2% to $6.5 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, as compared with $13.9 million for the prior-year period due to the reimbursement of costs related to the FCC Reimbursement Program.

We expect engineering, design and development expenses as a percentage of service revenue to decrease, following the completion of Gogo Galileo and 5G programs.

Sales and Marketing Expenses:

Sales and marketing expenses decreased 5.1% to $13.5 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, as compared with $14.2 million for the prior-year period due to lower personnel costs.

We expect sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of service revenue to increase in the near term and remain relatively steady in the long term due to the launch and market adoption of the Gogo 5G and Gogo Galileo offerings.

General and Administrative Expenses:

General and administrative expenses decreased 11.2% to $26.2 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, as compared with $29.5 million for the prior-year period due to a $4.5 million decrease in personnel costs and $3.8 million decrease in acquisition and integration-related costs, partially offset by a $3.6 million increase in legal costs.

We expect general and administrative expenses as a percentage of service revenue to decrease over time as acquisition and integration activities complete.

Depreciation and Amortization:

Depreciation and amortization expense increased 7.0% to $15.1 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, as compared with $14.1 million for the prior-year period.

We expect that our depreciation and amortization expense will increase in the future due to the launch of the Gogo 5G network.

Total other expense decreased to $10.7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 as compared with $16.2 million for the prior-year period due to the change in fair value of the Earnout Liability from the Satcom Direct acquisition.

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. 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-month period ended March 31, 2026 was 37.8% as compared with 36.6% for the prior-year period. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, our income tax provision was $7.9 million, due to pre-tax income, stock-based compensation, nondeductible officer’s compensation, and establishment of a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, our income tax provision was $6.9 million, due to pre-tax income. 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 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 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, and (iii) change in fair value of convertible note investment. 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 infrequent, 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 the change in fair value of convertible note investment 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.

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 measures that management uses as the basis of 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 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:

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect interest income or expense;
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash requirements for our income taxes;
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect depreciation and amortization, which are significant and unavoidable operating costs given the level of capital expenditures needed to maintain our business;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect non-cash components of employee compensation;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the change in the fair value of the Earnout Liability from the Satcom Direct acquisition;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect acquisition and integration-related costs;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up costs;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the change in fair value of convertible note investment;
Free Cash Flow does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for the period; and
since other companies in industries related to ours may calculate these measures differently from the way we do, their usefulness as comparative measures may be limited.

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.

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 three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. As of March 31, 2026, approximately $12.1 million remains available under the share repurchase program.

As detailed in Note 8, “Long-Term Debt and Other Liabilities,” on April 30, 2021, GIH entered into the 2021 Credit Agreement 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 Term Loan Facility matures on April 30, 2028.

On December 3, 2024, Gogo and GIH entered into a second amendment to the 2021 Credit Agreement with Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto to, among other purposes, (a) increase the aggregate principal amount of revolving commitments available under the 2021 Credit Agreement to an aggregate amount of revolving commitments equal to $122 million and (b) extend the maturity date of the Revolving Facility to 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).

The 2021 Term Loan Facility amortizes 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 2021 Term Loan Facility. There are no amortization payments under the Revolving Facility. On May 3, 2023, the Company prepaid $100 million of the outstanding principal amount of

33


 

the 2021 Term Loan Facility. This prepayment satisfied the required amortization payments for the remaining term of the 2021 Term Loan Facility.

As 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.

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 Committees 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 March 31, 2026 is $250.0 million. The notional amounts of the interest rate caps periodically decrease over the life of the 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 three-month period ended March 31, 2026, net cash used in operating activities was $7.2 million as compared with cash provided by operating activities of $32.5 million in the prior-year period. The principal contributors to the year-over-year change in operating cash flows were:

A $2.0 million decrease in net income and non-cash charges and credits, as noted above under “Results of Operations — Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.”
A $37.7 million decrease in cash flows related to operating assets and liabilities resulting from:
o
A decrease in cash flows due to the following:
Changes in accrued liabilities due to the timing of payments related to personnel costs and inventory; and
Changes in prepaid expenses and other current assets related to the FCC Reimbursement Program.

Cash flows used in Investing Activities:

Cash used in investing activities was $11.9 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, due to $28.0 million of capital expenditures noted below, partially offset by $14.9 million of proceeds received from the FCC Reimbursement Program related to the reimbursement of capital expenditures and $1.2 million of proceeds from interest rate caps.

Cash used in investing activities was $2.4 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, due to $6.2 million of capital expenditures noted below, partially offset by $3.2 million of proceeds from interest rate caps and $0.6 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 three-month period ended March 31, 2026 was $2.6 million due to stock-based compensation activities and principal payments on the HPS Term Loan Facility.

Cash used in financing activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 was $1.6 million, due to stock-based compensation activities and principal payments on the HPS Term Loan Facility.

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 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were $28.0 million and $6.2 million, respectively, due to the build out of the LTE and 5G networks.

We expect that our capital expenditures will decrease in the future as the build out of the LTE network nears completion.

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 March 31, 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 March 31, 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 March 31, 2026 was $250.0 million. Based on our March 31, 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 $6.3 million for the next twelve-month period, which includes the impact of our interest rate caps at a strike rate of 2.25% and the $50 million reduction in the notional amount and an increase of the strike rate to 2.75% that will occur on July 31, 2026. 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 $8.5 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-month periods ended March 31, 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.

(a)
Evaluation of Disclosure 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 March 31, 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 March 31, 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 March 31, 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 March 31, 2026:

Satcom Direct had ineffective general information technology controls (“GITCs”) over relevant information technology (“IT”) systems. Specifically, Satcom Direct management did not design and maintain effective GITCs for information systems and applications that are relevant to the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Specifically, they did not design and maintain: (i) sufficient user access controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties and adequately restrict user and privileged access to financial applications, programs and data to appropriate company personnel; and (ii) program change management controls to ensure that IT program and data changes affecting financial IT applications and underlying accounting records are identified, tested, authorized and implemented appropriately with appropriate segregation of duties.
o
Satcom Direct’s management did not design and implement control activities necessary to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements.

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 in the first quarter of 2026, a remediation plan to address the material weakness described above. Action items include the following:

We expanded our finance and accounting team, including hiring additional individuals with the requisite public company financial reporting, accounting, and internal control knowledge and experience.
We designed and implemented effective GITCs related to user access and change management over relevant Satcom Direct’s IT systems.

While we believe that our efforts have improved our internal control over financial reporting, remediation of the material weakness as of March 31, 2026 is expected to require further strengthening of our internal control environment and substantial effort throughout 2026, including:

Continuing to design and implement internal control over financial reporting for processes specific to Satcom Direct.
Migrating from or enhancing certain legacy Satcom Direct IT systems to allow for the ability to obtain sufficiently reliable information and facilitate the effective design, implementation and operating effectiveness of relevant internal control over financial reporting.
Migrating from or enhancing certain legacy Satcom Direct IT systems to improve functionality and sufficiently enforce segregation of duties, including segregation of duties related to the posting and review of manual journal entries.

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.

(b)
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

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.
