Total revenues for FY 2025-26 stood at €1,235.9 million, down 0.6% on a reported basis and up by 3.0% like-for-like. Revenues of the four Operating Verticals (excluding ‘Other Revenues’) stood at €1,197.1 million, up by 1.8% on a like-for-like basis1.
LEO revenues amounted to €297 million, up 69.5%1, and now accounting for 25% of revenues, up from c.15% a year ago.
Adjusted EBITDA stood at €632.4million on 30 June 2026, down 3.1% like-for-like. The Adjusted EBITDA margin stood at 51.2%, down 3.2 points like-for-like1.
This was in line with our financial projections of Operating Vertical Revenues around the same level, and an adjusted EBITDA margin slightly below the level of the previous year.
Jean-François Fallacher, Chief Executive Officer of Eutelsat commented: "This has been a landmark year for Eutelsat. We have delivered on our financial objectives while achieving significant strategic milestones that reinforce our long-term growth trajectory. Our Low Earth Orbit business continued its strong momentum, with revenues increasing by nearly 70%, demonstrating the growing demand for secure, resilient and low-latency connectivity solutions across government and enterprise markets. Over the past year, we have fundamentally strengthened the Company's financial foundations through the successful completion of a comprehensive €5 billion refinancing, providing a robust and diversified capital structure to support our ambitions. At the same time, we secured major commercial wins, including our first call-off contract under the French Armed Forces' NEXUS framework agreement, further validating the strategic value of our multi-orbit capabilities for sovereign customers.
Looking ahead, we expect continued strong growth in our LEO business to offset the structural decline in GEO, supporting slight revenue growth and stable profitability in FY 2026-27. With the forthcoming outcome of the IRIS² First Rendez-Vous expected to confirm Eutelsat's leadership of the LEO segment, we are uniquely positioned as Europe's leading space connectivity operator, playing a central role in delivering the sovereign communications infrastructure that Europe increasingly requires. We enter the new financial year with confidence, underpinned by a strengthened balance sheet, growing commercial momentum and a clear strategic roadmap for long-term value creation."

Note: Unless otherwise stated, all variations indicated below are on a like-for-like basis, ie, at constant currency. The variation is calculated as follows: i) FY 2025-26 USD revenues are converted at FY 2024-25 rates; ii) Hedging revenues are excluded. |
Video (43% of revenues)
FY 2025-26 Video revenues were down by 13.1% to €519.2 million. This reflects underlying market trends, compounded by sanctions on Russian channels imposed at the beginning of the year and by the termination of capacity contracts on the Express AT1 and AT2 satellites.
Fourth Quarter revenues stood at €124.7 million down by 14.4% year-on-year and by 2.7% quarter‑on‑quarter, reflecting the first full-quarter effect of the above-mentioned termination of capacity contracts.
Connectivity (57% of revenues)
Total Connectivity revenues for FY 2025-26 stood at €677.9 million, up by 9.7% on a reported basis and by 16.4% like-for-like, underpinned by the robust performance of LEO across all three verticals.
LEO growth exceeded expectations, up by 69.5% to €297m. LEO accounted for more than 40% of Connectivity revenues and 25% of the Group’s overall topline.
Fourth Quarter revenues stood at €214.9 million up 24.7% like-for-like year-on-year, and up 37% quarter‑on-quarter, powered by the sustained growth in LEO. They reflected in particular the start of revenue recognition in respect of the NEXUS framework agreement.
LEO revenues are set to see further strong growth in FY 2026-27, underpinned by strong demand in all three verticals, and we expect growth to exceed 30%.
Fixed Connectivity
FY 2025-26 Fixed Connectivity revenues stood at €270 million, up by 15.6% year-on-year. They mainly reflected the continued growth of LEO-enabled solutions. It was partially offset by the more challenging conditions for GEO-enabled solutions.
Fourth quarter revenues stood at €77.7 million. They were up 17.1% year-on-year, and up 27.8% quarter-on-quarter, reflecting the continued momentum of LEO performance as well as recognition of catch-up revenues in the fourth quarter.
Eutelsat recently signed an agreement with Voimatel for its LEO connectivity services in Finland, supporting critical network infrastructure, resilient communications for enterprise and public-sector customers, and connectivity in high northern latitudes, including Arctic regions.
Government Services
FY 2025-26 Government Services revenues stood at €235.5 million, up 17.7% year-on-year. This strong growth reflects the revenue recognition related to the CENTAURE call-off contract for its Full-Year contractual value, as well as increased demand from other non-US governments and service delivered in Ukraine.
As a reminder, the CENTAURE contract with the French Directorate General of Armaments (DGA), signed in June 2026 marked the first call-off contract under the €1bn NEXUS framework agreement with the French Ministry of the Armed Forces and Veterans. The contract provides for an initial firm commitment of €138 million over four years for the provision of LEO satellite capacity, within a framework agreement with a maximum value of €350 million and a duration of up to eight years.
Fourth Quarter revenues stood at €86.5 million, up by 36.9% year-on-year and by 70.4% quarter‑on‑quarter, reflecting the above-mentioned CENTAURE contract.
Mobile Connectivity
FY 2025-26 Mobile Connectivity revenues stood at €172.4 million, up 15.9% year-on-year. This reflected the ongoing strong performance of the Aero segment across both LEO and GEO solutions, as well as a more limited contribution from Maritime, where LEO growth was partially offset by softer trends in GEO services.
Fourth Quarter revenues stood at €50.8 million, up 18.6% year-on-year and by 11.8% quarter-on-quarter.
Recent commercial successes included a new multi-year, multi-million-dollar agreement with AST Networks to expand the use of Eutelsat's OneWeb LEO services as part of hybrid connectivity solutions for maritime customers worldwide. Eutelsat also signed a new partner agreement with Greece’s Tototheo to deliver LEO connectivity services to customers across the global maritime sector, further strengthening the Company's distribution network in this strategic market.
In aviation, Eutelsat signed a new multi-year agreement with Anuvu for capacity on EUTELSAT 10B to enhance high-speed in-flight connectivity services, underscoring the role of GEO capacity within Eutelsat’s multi-orbit strategy to address evolving aviation connectivity demand. Elsewhere, Eutelsat’s distribution partner, SES entered major inflight connectivity agreements with Japan Airlines (JAL) and LATAM Airlines, further showcasing the benefits of combining the low-latency benefits of LEO satellites with the reliability of GEO satellites.
Other Revenues
Other Revenues amounted to €38.8 million versus €17.5 million a year earlier. They reflected revenue recognition from IRIS2 related to Eutelsat’s involvement as Consortium System Development Prime. They included also a €7 million positive impact from hedging operations compared with a €1 million positive impact a year earlier.
BACKLOG
The backlog stood at €3.4 billion at 30 June 2026 versus 3.5 billion a year earlier. It was equivalent to 2.7 times 2025-26 revenues, and Connectivity represented 61% of the total, versus 57% a year ago.
The evolution of the backlog reflects the increasing weight of LEO business in the mix. As a reminder, contracts in the LEO business tend to be shorter than in the legacy GEO applications. Moreover, only the secured elements of the ‘take-or-pay’ contracts are recognized, while ‘pay-as-you-go’ contracts are not reflected.

PROFITABILITY
The Adjusted EBITDA stood at €632.4 million for the year ended 30 June 2026 compared with €676.2 million a year earlier, down by 6.5%. It was down 3.1% on a like for like basis.
Operating costs stood at €603.6 million, up by €36 million. They mainly reflected an increase in cost of goods sold, partially offset by the re-evaluation of share-based compensation schemes in the First Half.
The Adjusted EBITDA margin stood at 51.2% versus 54.4%, down 3.2 points on reported basis. On a like-for-like basis, the decline was likewise 3.2 points, reflecting the combined impact of sanction-related losses of Video revenues, as well as the effect of product mix within LEO revenues during the ramp-up stage.
Group share of the net result was a loss of €457.3 million versus a loss of €1,081.9 million a year earlier. This reflected:
- Lower ‘Other operating expenses’ of €153.2 million, compared to €777 million last year. As a reminder FY 2024-25 included goodwill and satellite impairments totalling €720 million, compared with 111 million in FY 2025-26.
- Lower D&A of €699.3 million versus €808.3 million a year earlier reflecting, the positive effect from the securing of operational continuity of the LEO constellation following the procurement of 340 satellites in January 2026, on top of previous 100 satellites procured in December 2024. It also reflected the end of the amortisation of certain intangible assets, as well as lower on-ground depreciation.
- A net financial result of minus €232.5 million versus minus €201 million a year earlier, mainly reflecting higher interest costs partially offset by the favourable evolution of foreign exchange gains and losses.
- A corporate Tax charge of €1.6million versus a gain of €6.7 million a year earlier.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURE
Capex amounted to €593.9 million, compared with €449.8 million a year earlier. This increase reflects progress in the execution of LEO investment programs, primarily focused on the GEN-1 follow‑on program.
It was below the €900 million level anticipated in our First Half Results communication, mainly due to changes in milestone phasing. It should not be extrapolated for future years, notably FY 2026-27, where Capex is expected in the region of €1.2 billion.
In this context, the Group confirms its medium-term plan, covering investments of approximately €4 billion over the period 2026-2029, funded by its recently completed €5bn refinancing round.
FINANCIAL STRUCTURE
At 30 June 2026, net debt stood at €1,464.6 million, down by €1,162 million versus end of June 2025, reflecting the net proceeds of €1,469 million from the capital increase, partially offset by interest paid and costs associated with the execution of refinancing plan.
As a result, the net debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio stood at 2.32 times, compared to 3.88 times at end‑June 2025 and 2.00 times at end-December 2025.
The average cost of debt after hedging stood at 4.37%. The weighted average maturity of the Group’s debt amounted to 4.2 years, compared to 2.5 years at end-June 2025.
Liquidity remained strong, with undrawn credit lines and cash around €2.3 billion, complemented by c. €690 million of undrawn ECA facility.
OUTLOOK AND FINANCIAL OBJECTIVES
For the Financial Year ending in June 2027, LEO revenues are set to drive further strong growth, with an anticipated rise of over 30%. As in FY 2025-26, LEO growth will offset the decline in GEO revenues, notably Video. In consequence, Eutelsat expects to deliver slight growth in the revenues of the four Operating Verticals, and an EBITDA margin at broadly the same level as last year.
Gross capital expenditure is expected to amount to c. €1.2 billion, reflecting milestone shifts from the previous year as well as the ramp up of capex associated with the renewal of the current generation OneWeb constellation.
Elsewhere, Eutelsat confirms its revenue expectations in a range between €1.5 and €1.7 billion3 for the year ending June 2029, supported by the strong momentum of LEO revenues. Operating leverage is set to drive an improvement in EBITDA margin, which is expected above 60%3.
Eutelsat is deeply engaged with the European Union, ESA and its fellow SpaceRise consortium partners, and is confident that the outcome of the IRIS2 First Rendez-Vous is imminent. Eutelsat’s role as lead of the LEO segment cements its position as a core player in Europe's future sovereign connectivity infrastructure and underpins its long-term strategic roadmap.
Note: Financial objectives assume: (i) no additional impact on revenues due to sanctions imposed on channels broadcast on the group's fleet (ii) the nominal launch and entry into operation of satellites in course of construction in accordance with the timetable envisaged by the Group; (iii) no incidents affecting any of the satellites in-orbit. |
POST-CLOSING EVENT
FCC C-Band Order
On July 27, 2026, Eutelsat welcomed the order of the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC), establishing the regulatory framework for the transition of Upper C-band spectrum in the United States and creating the conditions for an orderly transition of satellite services. Under the provisions of the order, Eutelsat expects to receive incentive payments of $504 million (€443 million) pre-tax, conditional upon the completion of the transition within the two established deadlines and is expected during 2031. Eutelsat will be fully reimbursed for costs incurred during the transition process.
CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Over the past year, we have continued to strengthen the foundations of our sustainability strategy. We advanced the implementation of our climate roadmap following the validation of our emissions reduction targets by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), expanded our contribution to digital inclusion through our multi‑orbit connectivity solutions, reinforced our governance framework in line with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), and continued to cultivate an inclusive and engaging workplace.
Specifically, as of June 2026, Eutelsat has successfully connected over 1.8 million new users in Africa through Konnect Wi-Fi hotspots powered by the EUTELSAT KONNECT satellite.
In addition, Eutelsat continues to deliver on its’ decarbonization roadmap. Through improvements in energy efficiency at the Teleports and offices, together with moving to green energy supply contracts and the deployment of Solar panel systems at several sites, Eutelsat has successful reduced its’ scope 1&2 carbon emissions by 64% from the 2021 baseline. This is well in advance of the SBTi commitment, align with the Paris agreements, to reduce Scope 1 & 2 emissions by 50% by 2030.

Appendix 4: Alternative performance indicators
In addition to the data published in its accounts, the Group communicates on three alternative performance indicators which it deems relevant for measuring its financial performance: Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, net debt / Adjusted EBITDA ratio and Gross Capex. These indicators are the object of reconciliation with the consolidated accounts.
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Net debt / Adjusted EBITDA ratio
Adjusted EBITDA reflects the profitability of the Group before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation, impairment of assets and other operating income and expenses. It is a frequently used indicator in the Fixed Satellite Services Sector and more generally the Telecom industry. The table below shows the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA based on the consolidated P&L accounts for FY 2024-25 and FY 2025-26:
