Gogo Releases 2025 Year-End Progress Report on New Product Initiatives
Gogo issued a "report card" today regarding its 2025 year-end progress on critical new product initiatives as it transitions from being a domestic supplier of traditional Air-to-Ground connectivity to becoming a global multi-orbit, ultra-high bandwidth connectivity supplier to the business aviation and military government markets. All data in this press release is as of December 31, 2025. Gogo Galileo Antennas - This is Gogo's new global Low-Earth-Orbit satellite offering, which comes in two sizes, FDX for large jets offering 200 Mbps speeds, and HDX, a smaller form factor that fits on all aircraft, offering 60 Mbps speeds. As of December 31, 2025: Strong Antenna Shipments - Gogo shipped over 300 FDX and HDX antennas, 84% of which were for named customers, making Gogo Galileo one of the fastest product launches ever in the BA market for inflight connectivity. Increasing Activations - Gogo activated service on 99 of the shipped antennas. Growing STC Portfolio - Gogo completed 31 HDX and FDX Commercial STCs in the United States, Europe, Brazil and Canada, with a total addressable market of 4,000+ aircraft covering 34 aircraft models. Gogo expects 20 more STCs to be completed in the first half of 2026. Healthy Pipeline - Gogo inventory levels were strong to support a weighted pipeline of more than 430 aircraft with an anticipated 50% probability or better of closing in 2026. Further, the combined Gogo Galileo pipeline for both HDX and FDX remains strong at over 1,000 aircraft, and Gogo continues to see a favorable pipeline mix between the U.S. and global markets of about 60/40. 5G Network - This is Gogo's cutting-edge ATG product, offering satellite speeds at ATG prices, for aircraft that fly predominantly in North America. As of December 31, 2025: First revenue-generating customer - Gogo confirmed installation and activation completed in December for the first 5G aircraft, with official launch and availability of the 5G network planned for January 2026. 5G service revenue is anticipated to begin in Q1 2026. 43 STCs covering all major aircraft types in North America are in place, needing only a minor upgrade. Approximately 450 aircraft are already pre-provisioned and ready to come online with a simple box swap in 2026, and Gogo anticipates a strong pipeline of new prospects in 2026. Gogo network testing confirmed peak speeds of 80 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload, allowing more than ten devices to concurrently attend video conferencing meetings and stream high-bandwidth content. FCC Rip & Replace Program - This is the upgrade of Gogo's legacy EVDO network to LTE technology, which is expected to deliver a 40% performance boost for Gogo Classic customers who upgrade to AVANCE. Strong Shipments - Gogo had record-breaking ATG shipments of over 1,600 units, including 700+ C-1 Systems. The C-1 System allows Gogo Classic customers a fast unit swap in order to maintain Gogo connectivity after the network cutover. Over 300 C-1 systems were already installed and activated. Strong Pipeline - Gogo has a weighted pipeline of more than 260 C-1 aircraft in 2026, with an anticipated 50% probability or better of closing in 2026. Further, the unweighted pipeline for C-1 systems remains strong at over 450.
