Iridium Communications Inc. is a global leader in satellite voice and data communications, providing services that span the entire globe. The company is known for its innovative solutions and reliable network, catering to diverse markets such as maritime, aviation, and government sectors.

In its second quarter of 2025, Iridium reported a net income of $22 million, a decrease from the previous year’s $32.3 million, primarily due to a non-recurring gain in 2024. However, the company saw an 8% increase in total revenue, reaching $216.9 million, with service revenue contributing significantly at $155.6 million.

Key financial highlights include a 6% increase in Operational EBITDA to $121.3 million and a 3% growth in total billable subscribers, driven by commercial IoT. The company also announced a 5% increase in its quarterly dividend, reflecting confidence in its long-term growth prospects. Equipment revenue saw a decline, whereas engineering and support services experienced a substantial increase, particularly from U.S. government activities.

Looking ahead, Iridium has adjusted its full-year 2025 service revenue growth outlook to between 3% and 5%, while maintaining its OEBITDA guidance. The company continues to focus on expanding its subscriber base and exploring new applications for its services, positioning itself for sustained growth in the satellite communications industry.
