The Board of Directors of Eutelsat Communications, chaired by Dominique D’Hinnin, has released the financial results for the Half Year ended 31 December 2022.

All standalone Full Year 2022-23 and longer-term financial objectives confirmed
Operating vertical revenues down 4.1% like-for-like; within the range of Full Year objectives
Industry-leading profitability maintained, with a 73% EBITDA margin
Successful launch of four satellites in H1, paving the way for return to growth in FY 2023-24
Positive commercial momentum at OneWeb; combination deal on track for closing in calendar Q2/Q3 2023

Eutelsat delivered a solid First Half, with revenues from our Operating Verticals within the range of our Full Year objectives and industry-leading profitability maintained with a 73% EBITDA margin. This financial performance enables us to confirm our standalone outlook for the Full Year 2022-23, and for the outer years. The start of the year has also seen considerable operational success, with the ongoing strong commercial ramp-up of EUTELSAT QUANTUM, and a record number of four satellite launches, providing both service continuity and incremental capacity which will pave the way for our return to growth in FY 2023-24. Elsewhere, OneWeb continues to deliver positive commercial ramp-up, and the proposed deal to combine our two companies is on track for closing in calendar Q2/Q3 2023. In the long term, our new orbital assets as well as the projected combination with OneWeb will unlock significant potential in markets where the demand for connectivity is booming.
