EchoStar Files Comments On FCC's Public Notices; Seeks Comments On Reconsideration Petition And Status Update On Its Acceleration, Conditional Extension Of 2 GHz Band MSS Construction Deadlines.

JP Morgan analyst Sebastiano C Petti expressed views on EchoStar Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SATS#NASDAQ">SATS</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SATS/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">earnings reported on May 9</a>.
The company reported a loss of 71 cents per share, missing the analyst consensus estimate of 69 cents loss and sales of $3.87 billion, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45325649/whats-going-on-with-echostar-stock-today" rel="noreferrer noopener">in line with the Street view</a>.
The analyst notes that, during the earnings call, CEO Hamid Akhavan reiterated the company&#8217;s ambition to establish itself as a &#8220;leading provider of global direct-to-device connectivity,&#8221; leveraging its international S-band spectrum and domestic AWS-4 assets.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/05/45537630/trump-claimed-qatar-gifted-him-a-400-million-jet-but-insiders-say-the-us-initiated-the-deal" rel="noreferrer noopener">Trump Said Qatar Gifted Him A $400 Million Jet, But Insiders Say The US Initiated The Deal</a>
Akhavan assured investors that EchoStar is not &#8220;missing the window of opportunity,&#8221; and noted that more concrete updates will be shared as plans mature, adds the analyst.
Petti says that, on the operational front, wireless subscriber growth continues to gain traction, which management attributes to enhanced marketing initiatives, improved digital engagement, better customer retention, and appealing offers tailored to a challenging macroeconomic environment.
However, the acceleration in customer acquisition is putting pressure on near-term financials due to higher subscriber acquisition costs (SAC), though management expects this to pay off in improved long-term customer lifetime value (CLV), says the analyst.
Consequently, Petti now estimates 2025 wireless retail net additions at 775,000, up from the previous estimate of 400,000.
Nevertheless, this is accompanied by a deeper OIBDA (Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization) loss for the segment, revised to $1.90 billion.
On a consolidated basis, the analyst have lowered the OIBDA estimate to $1.43 billion (from $1.83 billion), factoring in the increased wireless drag but also recognizing improved trends in PayTV, driven by cost efficiencies.
The analyst notes EchoStar is prioritizing wireless subscriber growth and its long-term vision for direct-to-device connectivity. This strategic focus is, however, currently incurring a significant OIBDA drag.
Furthermore, the ongoing FCC review of EchoStar&#8217;s spectrum assets is introducing a substantial layer of regulatory uncertainty, which Petti believes could potentially impact the company&#8217;s future strategic options and overall valuation.

EchoStar's Wireless Subscriber Growth Comes At A Cost, Says Analyst

EchoStar shares are trading lower following a report suggesting that the FCC told chairman and co-founder Charlie Ergen that the agency staff would investigate the company's compliance with federal requirements to build a 5G network.

'FCC Threatens Charlie Ergen's Hold on Satellite, 5G Spectrum Licenses'- WSJ

U.S. stock futures jumped on Monday after a muted day of trade on Friday. Futures of major benchmark indices were trading over 2% in premarket.
U.S. and China announced a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45341884/apple-amazon-nvidia-rise-in-monday-premarket-as-us-china-agree-to-90-day-tariff-truce-neither-side-wants-a-decoupling">90-day truce</a> to pause the reciprocal tariffs on Monday and revised it from 125% to 10%.&nbsp;This comes after the White House and Chinese officials signaled significant <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/05/45337811/trump-announces-total-reset-as-us-china-trade-talks-aim-to-end-tariff-war">headway in trade negotiations</a> held in Geneva over the weekend.
The U.S. will maintain its 20% tariffs on Chinese imports linked to fentanyl, keeping the overall tariff level on China at 30%. "We had very productive talks and I believe that the venue, here in Lake Geneva, added great equanimity to what was a very positive process,&#8221; said the Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent after the talks.
The U.S.-China joint statement also indicated Beijing&#8217;s agreement to suspend or remove all non-tariff countermeasures implemented since April 2, including sanctions on specific U.S. firms and export limits on crucial minerals, according <a href="https://www.scmp.com/economy/global-economy/article/3309975/china-us-reduce-majority-tariffs-after-first-round-trade-talks?module=top_story&amp;pgtype=homepage">to</a> the South China Morning Post.
Meanwhile, the 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.44% and the two-year bond was at 3.98%. The CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>&#8216;s projections show markets pricing a 92.1% likelihood of the Federal Reserve keeping the current interest rates unchanged in its June meeting.

Insights From Analysts:
After last week, 90% of the S&amp;P 500 companies have reported quarterly results, and the performance has been strong relative to expectations, said Brian Therien, the investment strategist at Edward Jones.
Seventy-eight percent have beaten analyst estimates, with an average upside surprise of 8.6%, he highlighted. Forecasts for first-quarter earnings growth of S&amp;P 500 companies have been revised higher to 13.2%, from 6.7% at the end of the quarter.
Performance has been broad, with eight of the 11 sectors forecast to report higher earnings year-over-year.
&#8220;Wider earnings growth should drive more balanced market performance across sectors, strengthening the case for portfolio diversification, in our view,&#8221; Therien added.
Charles Schwab said in a note that they are maintaining a neutral &#8220;marketperform&#8221; rating on all sectors, a shift it made in April after the White House announced broad-reaching tariffs on imports.
&#8220;Uncertainty about the ultimate level and timing of the tariffs has made it difficult to assert a view on which sectors might outperform or underperform the S&amp;P 500 index, so we are holding all sector ratings at Marketperform until we have more clarity on trade policy,&#8221; the note stated.

US Stock Futures Rise As US, China Agree To 90-Day Tariff Pause: 'Wider Earnings Growth Should Drive More Balanced Market Performance,' Says Expert

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed almost no change in the overall market sentiment, while the index remained in the &#8220;Greed&#8221; zone on Friday.
U.S. stocks settled lower on Friday, with the Dow Jones index falling more than 100 during the session ahead of trade talks between the US and Chinese officials.
Major indices on the US also closed lower last week, with the S&amp;P 500 falling about 0.5% and the Nasdaq down around 0.3%. The Dow also declined almost 0.2% in the week.
Lyft, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYFT#NASDAQ">LYFT</a>) reported better-than-expected earnings for the first quarter and announced a $750 million share buyback plan on Thursday.

What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based
&nbsp;on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

Dow Falls Over 100 Points, Also Records Weekly Loss: Fear & Greed Index Remains In 'Greed' Zone

Wall Street traded slightly lower by midday Friday, as investors adopted a wait-and-see stance ahead of a potential trade breakthrough, with high-stakes negotiations between U.S. officials—led by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent—and Chinese authorities set to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">unfold over the weekend.</a>
President Donald Trump signaled that tariffs on Chinese goods could be slashed from the current 145% to 80%, though that figure remains significantly higher than pre-Liberation Day levels, prompting continued caution among market participants.
Equities gave back a portion of Thursday's gains as sentiment turned more defensive, while gold rebounded 1% to $3,330 per ounce, partially offsetting losses from the previous session.
Oil prices extended their rally, climbing further above $60 a barrel amid an improved global demand outlook, putting crude on track for its strongest weekly performance since late 2024. Natural gas followed suit, with Henry Hub futures rising 4.4%.
In fixed income, Treasury yields held steady, with the 10-year yield hovering around 4.37%.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) took a breather after Thursday's 6.4% surge, trading just above $102,500.

U.S. stock futures fluctuated between gains and losses on Friday, following a three-day winning streak. Major benchmark index futures were mixed in premarket trading.
The U.S. and U.K.<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45293839/trump-starmer-strike-us-uk-trade-deal-steel-cars-beef"> sealed a bilateral trade deal</a>, cutting tariffs, boosting industrial ties, and securing billions in new market access. 
A central component of the trade agreement involves the U.S. significantly reducing tariffs on cars made in the UK, bringing them down from 25% to 10% and establishing an annual quota of 100,000 vehicles.
The U.K. will eliminate tariffs on American-made cars, including those from General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) and Ford Motor Co.

Insights From Analysts:
According to Louis Navellier of Navellier &amp; Associates, &#8220;Tariffs are steering the boat again.&#8221;
He said that Trump&#8217;s announcement of the U.S. striking a comprehensive agreement with the U.K. and Scott Bessent&#8217;s announcement of a meeting in Switzerland with China to discuss tariffs are propelling the market.
&#8220;This helps explain the long recovery rally since the Liberation Day announcement of tariffs on April 2nd. The fear of missing out on favorable agreements being reached has limited the number of sellers,&#8221; he said.
He added, &#8220;The upside story will be that the tariff agreements will result in mutually low tariffs, which should be generally beneficial for U.S. exporters, as Trump has contended all along.&#8221;
He also said that Trump announcing a definitive deal with the U.K. is an &#8220;important first step in reducing tariff fears.&#8221;
Meanwhile, Ed Yardeni or Yardeni Research agreed with the sentiment and added, &#8220;President Donald Trump will need to declare victories in his trade wars with multiple countries around the world sooner rather than later.&#8221;
Yardeni also explained that Trump and his fellow Republicans have to avoid a recession caused by his tariff wars. Otherwise, they risk losing their thin majorities in both houses of Congress later in 2026, as per Yardeni.
&#8220;The correction in the S&amp;P 500 that started on February 19 ended on April 8. The S&amp;P 500 now has regained almost all its losses since the April 2 close, just before it tanked during the Annihilation Days on April 3 and April 4,&#8221; he said.
According to Yardeni, the stock market will soon have &#8220;deals fatigue and tire of Trump&#8217;s declarations of victory.&#8221;
&#8220;We think the trade issue will be behind us by July or August. If so, then the focus should be on how much Trump&#8217;s tariff skirmishes weighed on the economy and earnings. We expect both will remain surprisingly resilient,&#8221; he added.
