GSAT Expands Singapore Ground Station for Next-Gen C-3 Satcom System

By Zacks Equity Research | August 13, 2025, 11:21 AM

Globalstar, Inc. (GSAT) has announced the commencement of construction to expand its Singapore ground station. The facility, hosted by Singtel since 2008, will soon boast two additional 6-meter tracking antennas designed to support Globalstar’s third-generation C-3 mobile satellite system (MSS). It is designed to be future-proof, allowing it to adapt to new technologies and evolving user needs for years to come.

This development not only strengthens GSAT’s footprint in Southeast Asia but also aligns with the company’s ongoing global expansion efforts that aim to enhance satellite coverage, increase network capacity and future-ready communications infrastructure.

The Singapore project is part of Globalstar’s extensive C-3 expansion plan, which aims to install about 90 new tracking antennas worldwide. The deployment includes major setups in countries like the United States, Spain, Japan and Canada. By adding more antennas across different continents, Globalstar is building a truly interconnected and future-ready satellite network that can meet the increasing global demand for mobile satellite communications.

In the last reported quarter, Globalstar reported revenues of $67.1 million, up 11% year over year, driven by growth in wholesale capacity services and Commercial IoT. The company signed a launch services agreement with SpaceX for its second set of replacement satellites under construction by MDA Space and received FCC Space Bureau acceptance of its C-3 petition to advance its mobile satellite services network expansion.

In addition, it entered into a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with the U.S. Army to test its edge-processing satellite solutions for defense use. The collaboration highlights the value of GSAT’s compact, lightweight and low-power devices in delivering secure, autonomous communications in demanding environments.

In July, GSAT announced definitive agreements with Telecom Castilla-La Mancha, S.A. (Telecom CLM) to significantly expand its Alcazar Teleport facility in Castilla-La Mancha, Spain. This move marks a strategic investment in its third-generation mobile satellite services network, the C-3 System, enhancing its capabilities to deliver resilient and uninterrupted connectivity across Europe.

Globalstar reaffirmed its 2025 financial outlook, projecting total revenues of $260–$285 million and an adjusted EBITDA margin of around 50%, noting that it expects minimal impact from tariffs.
