EchoStar Corporation, along with its subsidiary DISH DBS Corporation, is facing regulatory uncertainty due to inquiries by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that began in May 2025. This uncertainty has led the company to reassess its financial strategies, including the decision not to make certain interest payments on senior notes due in 2026 and 2028, which could lead to a default if not resolved within a 30-day grace period. Despite this, EchoStar has made other scheduled interest payments within their respective grace periods, following discussions with the FCC and encouragement from the President of the United States to find an amicable resolution. These actions aim to extend the timeline for resolving the FCC’s concerns and minimize disruption to EchoStar’s operations.
