Shareholder Letter Q3FY22


LOGO

Fellow Shareholders, Viasat continued to execute on its core strategy and achieved excellent results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 (FY2022) across multiple fronts. We earned double digit organic revenue growth, reported Virgin Atlantic as a new in-flight connectivity (IFC) customer, and continued to expand our fixed broadband presence internationally. Although COVID-19 continues to create uncertainty, the gradual re-opening of the global economy has been a tailwind, especially for our commercial IFC business. The most significant news of the quarter was our agreement to acquire Inmarsat, which we expect to accelerate and enhance Viasat’s future. We have achieved several initial milestones in support of the transaction, which are highlighted on page 7. In addition, we were proud to receive recognition during the quarter from Euroconsult, which selected Viasat for its 2021 Global Satellite Business of the Year Award. Subsequent to quarter end, Glassdoor included the Company in its list of 2022 Best Places to Work among large U.S. employers. We supported responsible space practices and policies, joining the Paris Peace Forum’s Net Zero Space Initiative to acknowledge and address the growing space debris crisis in Lower Earth Orbit. We also published our inaugural Environmental, Social and Governance report. For Q3 FY2022 we earned record revenue of $720 million, a 25% year-over year (YoY) increase from $576 million in Q3 FY2021. Top-line growth was driven by our recent acquisitions, broad-based service revenue growth across each of our segments and strong product sales. While Q3 FY2022 net income* was down YoY due to higher depreciation and non-recurring acquisition expenses, we achieved record Adjusted EBITDA of $163 million, a 10% YoY increase from the prior year period. We earned double digit Adjusted EBITDA growth despite the anticipated increase in expenses associated with the impending deployment of the ViaSat-3 (Americas) satellite network, new market entry costs, and growth in research and development (R&D) investments. Total consolidated awards in Q3 FY2022 were $569 million, 12% lower than a year ago due primarily to comparison against an exceptional quarter from our Commercial Networks segment in Q3 FY2021. We ended the quarter with a backlog of $2.1 billion (excluding $3.8 billion of Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) awards), slightly lower compared to the prior year period. At the segment level, Satellite Services Q3 FY2022 revenue increased to a record $310 million, a 40% increase YoY and the sixth quarter of sequential growth since the height of the pandemic in Q1 FY2021. The two acquisitions that closed earlier this fiscal year and continued improvement in IFC service revenues were the primary drivers. Government Systems revenue increased 2% YoY, to $270 million, with most of the growth coming from higher services revenue. Commercial Networks revenue surged by 55% YoY to $140 million for Q3 FY2022. The main growth drivers in that segment continued to be mobile IFC terminal deliveries and the performance of our ground antenna systems business. The ViaSat-3 (Americas) payload is being readied for thermal vacuum testing at Boeing – a major milestone in final spacecraft integration. Supplier issues resulted in modest slippage in the launch schedule, which is now targeted for late summer 2022. We anticipate that good progress on space-ground “Alpha” system testing may enable us to maintain commencement of initial services by the end of calendar year 2022. We have also made significant progress on the second ViaSat-3 payload module (for the EMEA region) in our own facilities, with ~95% of the payload units now installed. With strong financial results through the first three quarters of FY2022, good revenue visibility and a continuing recovery in mobility, our business is well positioned to capitalize on the proposed Inmarsat transaction. We expect to continue growing revenue and Adjusted EBITDA consistent with our previously stated stand-alone financial targets by executing our substantial backlog and capturing growth opportunities across our growing product and service addressable markets. The Inmarsat acquisition, once closed, is expected to reinforce our strategy and support a broader foundation for long-term growth by enabling global coverage sooner, expanding our premium service capabilities to more markets and customers, increasing network resiliency, leveraging established global distribution networks, leveraging a leading position in L-band spectrum and space resources, capturing operational and capital synergies and creating new business and innovation opportunities. *”Net income” as used herein is defined as Net (loss) income attributable to Viasat, Inc. common stockholders Shareholder Letter    |    Q3 Fiscal Year 2022 1

Q3 FY2022 Financial Results Viasat achieved another strong quarter of financial performance from continued momentum in our IFC business, contributions from RigNet and Euro Broadband Infrastructure Sàrl (EBI), steady demand and execution in U.S. fixed broadband and modest growth in our Government Systems business. Q3 Fiscal Year 2022 Highlights › Revenue grew 25% YoY from top-line growth across all › Satellite Services revenue increased substantially YoY segments and the impact of the acquisitions completed mainly due to 53% more IFC aircraft in service compared in Q1 FY2022.

EBITDA Awards $ in millions In Q3 FY2022, Government Systems awards were $168 million, a decrease of 12% YoY. This decrease YoY was primarily due to the $978 timing of a large, multi-year order for network management services $838 $786 $809 in the prior year period. Year-to-date, Government Systems’ $838 million in awards supported backlog of $956 million as of Q3 FY2022, which does not include approximately $3.8 billion of unawarded IDIQ contract value. $218 $214 Revenue Awards Revenue Adj. EBITDA Government Systems revenue was $270 million in Q3 FY2022, up 2% YoY, led by 5% growth YoY in services revenue from a combination Q3 FY21 YTD Q3 FY22 YTD of government satcom system services, higher government aircraft mobile broadband utilization and cybersecurity. In the quarter, tactical BACKLOG AND UNAWARDED IDIQ satcom radio and tactical data link products drove higher product $ in millions revenues, offsetting a near term bottleneck in sales of new security assurance products that are experiencing longer than anticipated U.S. $3,765 government certification delays due, in part, to government staffing $3,134 shortages. Continued delays in certification may delay delivery of certain new network security products into FY2023. Adjusted EBITDA $1,034 $956 Q3 FY2022 Adjusted EBITDA for Government Systems was $74 million, a decrease of 6% YoY. Higher R&D, selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses and proposal and marketing expenses offset higher gross Backlog Unawarded IDIQ margins.

We anticipate sustained growth in the IFC service fleet from an additional ~860 commercial aircraft expected to be put into service on our IFC networks under existing customer agreements › Progressed in multiple international markets – grew residential and enterprise subscriber base in Mexico and Brazil, advanced EBI integration efforts and expanded broadband activities in several parts of Africa › Named 2021 Global Satellite Business of the Year by Euroconsult at the World Satellite Business Week Summit Revenue Satellite Services Q3 FY2022 revenue reached $310 million, a new record and the sixth consecutive quarter of sequential growth. U.S. fixed broadband revenue was flat YoY with higher ARPU from continuing favorability on plan mix offsetting a slight decrease in the number of U.S. subscribers driven by reallocation of bandwidth to mobility services. Commercial IFC services revenue grew considerably both YoY and sequentially and was the primary contributor to sustained progress on diversifying satellite services revenue. Mobility, international and other revenue reached over 37% of total Satellite Services quarterly revenue. Adjusted EBITDA In Q3 FY2022, Satellite Services earned a new Adjusted EBITDA record of $113 million, an increase of 28% YoY. Higher YoY revenue flow-through was offset by ViaSat-3 pre-launch expenses, lower margin contributions from RigNet and higher advertising costs. 1,430 1,480 1,800 1,550 1,700 1,880 Q3 FY21 Q4 FY21 Q1 FY22 Q2 FY22 Q3 FY22 Aircraft Installed Aircraft In-Service** **Excludes approximately 250, 200, 150, 80 and 80 aircraft that were inactive as of Dec 2020, Mar Shareholder Letter | Q3 Fiscal Year 2022 4 2021, Jun 2021, Sep 2021 and Dec 2021 respectively, due to the COVID-19 pandemic

EBITDA In Q3 FY2022, Commercial Networks awards were $90 million, a $ in millions decrease of 62% YoY and 16% sequentially. The relative decrease was due to comparison with substantial orders for large aperture antenna $504 systems and IFC mobility terminals in both the prior year period and $393 prior quarter. New IFC orders include agreements with new airlines $267 $236 including Virgin Atlantic. Revenue Commercial Networks Q3 FY2022 revenue was $140 million, up 55% ($80) ($67) YoY, from a combination of higher mobility terminal shipments, Awards Revenue Adj. EBITDA increased deliveries for advanced antenna systems products, and product revenues from RigNet. Q3 FY21 YTD Q3 FY22 YTD Adjusted EBITDA Commercial Networks Adjusted EBITDA for Q3 FY2022 was a loss of $24 million, declining 27% YoY. Lower gross margin, higher SG&A and increased R&D investments for advanced satellite payload development contributed to lower earnings YoY in the segment. On a YTD basis Adjusted EBITDA improved by $12 million YoY. ViaSat-3 Update Supplier issues resulted in a modest delay to the ViaSat-3 (Americas) launch schedule, now expected to occur in late summer 2022. Continued progress on “Alpha” testing space-ground integration may enable us to maintain planned launch of initial services by calendar year end. Shareholder Letter    |    Q3 Fiscal Year 2022 5

Balance Sheet, Cash Flows and Liquidity OPERATING CASH FLOW Operating Cash Flow $ in millions Viasat generated $159 million in operating cash flow, a decline of 29% YoY and 3% sequentially. The YoY comparison reflects the higher earnings this quarter that were more than offset by an increase in $224 working capital. Most of the working capital change was due to an $170 $163 $159 increase in accounts receivable attributable to revenue growth in Commercial Networks and Satellite Services – driven by increased IFC $65 terminal shipments and service revenues – combined with a decrease in customer advance payments. Sequentially, the decrease relates Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 to an increase in working capital partially offset by higher earnings. FY21 FY21 FY22 FY22 FY22 Capital Expenditure & Investment Capital expenditures in Q3 FY2022 were $237 million, a decrease of 2% YoY. The decrease was primarily due to lower customer premise CAPITAL EXPENDITURE & INVESTMENT equipment and other investments with expenditures in our ViaSat-3 $ in millions constellation and future payloads remaining flat YoY. Debt and Leverage $400 $243 Cash and net leverage remained at comfortable levels during the $182 $214 $237 quarter. Net debt increased $89 million to $2.0 billion at the end of Q3 FY2022 while net leverage remained flat at 3.2x LTM Adjusted EBITDA, ahead of plan. As we discussed in prior quarters, we expect net leverage to slowly increase next quarter and into FY2023 heading into the launch Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 of the first ViaSat-3 satellite and with continued investment in the FY21 FY21 FY22 FY22 FY22 second and third satellites of the ViaSat-3 constellation.

Inmarsat Acquisition Update On November 8, 2021, we announced that we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Inmarsat. The combination will create a leading global communications innovator with enhanced scale and scope to affordably, securely and reliably connect the world. The combined company intends to integrate the spectrum, satellite and terrestrial assets of both companies into a high-capacity multi-band, multi-orbit global hybrid space and terrestrial network, capable of delivering superior services in fast-growing commercial and government sectors. Since the announcement we have achieved several initial milestones necessary for completing the acquisition: › Amended our existing $700 million credit facility to permit the acquisition of Inmarsat and provide additional covenant flexibility › Completed the amendment of Inmarsat’s $1.7 billion term loan and $700 million revolving credit facility to allow the facilities to stay in place after the acquisition › Submitted pre-merger notification under antitrust regulations with the U.S. Department of Justice and prepared regulatory filings for many additional jurisdictions around the world We previously said we expect to close the transaction 9 - 18 months from signing and continue to believe that is a good estimate, with a goal of closing by the end of this calendar year. Until that time, Viasat and Inmarsat continue to operate as independent companies. Inmarsat’s disclosures show good growth through the first three quarters of calendar 2021, as the recovery in aviation and maritime added to growth in their government segment. As noted in CEO Rajeev Suri’s LinkedIn post last quarter, Inmarsat stated that its top-line performance for the September 30, 2021 quarter was ahead of pre-COVID levels of 2019, and included the following highlights: › Revenue growth of 11% YoY for both the quarter and 9 months ended September 30, 2021 › Adjusted EBITDA growth of 8.5% and 15% YoY for the quarter and 9 months ended September 30, 2021, respectively › Free cash flow increase of 30% YoY for the quarter Operationally, on December 22, 2021, Inmarsat successfully launched its I-6 F1 satellite, which has a dual L-/Ka-band payload. The first of two planned I-6 spacecraft, these hybrid satellites feature both an ELERA (L-band) and Global Xpress (Ka-band) payload to enhance capabilities, coverage and capacity of communications networks for global mobility, government and Internet of Things (IoT) customers. While we await approvals from regulators and shareholders, we have begun internal integration planning, positioning us to fully realize the compelling strategic, financial and operational benefits of this transaction.

FY2022 Outlook As the ViaSat-3 era approaches and we work toward completion of the Inmarsat transaction, we are focused on executing our business plan and broadening our foundation for sustained long-term growth. We expect to continue generating meaningful revenue and Adjusted EBITDA growth, even as we carefully manage our available bandwidth ahead of the ViaSat-3 satellites entering service. › Satellite Services segment outlook for the remainder of FY2022 is robust. We continue to expect IFC to lead revenue growth, while maintaining consistent performance from both consumer and enterprise fixed broadband. › Government Systems overall outlook remains attractive, with a diverse product mix, expanding services revenue and promising pipeline of new products and services. Our growing backlog (inclusive of IDIQ agreements), along with anticipated normalization of government acquisition processes disrupted by COVID-19, are expected to support this segment, while quarterly segment results may remain lumpy due to security product certification delays affecting Q4 FY2022 deliveries. › Commercial Networks segment is expected to continue the recent trends of strong revenue growth that can enable narrowing Adjusted EBITDA losses. IFC mobility terminal deliveries from existing orders, prospective additional orders from current and new IFC customers, and strength in the ground antenna systems business are anticipated to be key drivers. › Net leverage is expected to gradually increase as we continue investing in the upcoming ViaSat-3 constellation, including the ground network. › Our ViaSat-3 (Americas) satellite is expected to launch late summer 2022, with commencement of initial services targeted by the end of calendar year 2022. Our YTD FY2022 results reinforce our confidence in meeting our stand-alone YoY mid-teens Adjusted EBITDA growth targets for FY2022 and FY2023 relative to FY2021. We also remain on track to achieve our stand-alone FY2025 target of more than doubling Adjusted EBITDA relative to FY2020. As we progress towards closure of the acquisition of Inmarsat, we are also confident of the additional long-term benefits that transaction can deliver to our customers and the associated value creation for our shareholders. On behalf of everyone at Viasat, we want to thank our shareholders, customers, partners and employees for their continued support.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information To supplement Viasat’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), Viasat uses non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to Viasat, Inc. and Adjusted EBITDA, measures Viasat believes are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of Viasat’s past financial performance and prospects for the future. We believe the non-GAAP results provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding specific expenses that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. In addition, since we have historically reported non-GAAP results to the investment community, we believe the inclusion of non-GAAP numbers provides consistency in our financial reporting and facilitates comparisons to Viasat’s historical operating results. Further, these non-GAAP results are among the primary indicators that management uses as a basis for evaluating the operating performance of our segments, allocating resources to such segments, planning and forecasting in future periods. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of specific adjustments to GAAP results is provided in the tables below. Copyright © 2021 Viasat, Inc. All rights reserved.

As the three months ended December 31, 2021 and nine months ended December 31, 2020 financial information resulted in a net loss, the weighted average number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted net loss per share is the same, as diluted shares would be anti-dilutive. However, as the non-GAAP financial information for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and nine months ended December 31, 2020 resulted in non-GAAP net income, 75.5 million and 66.3 million, respectively, diluted weighted average number of shares were used instead to calculate non-GAAP diluted net income per share.

(3)

Awards exclude future revenue under recurring consumer commitment arrangements.

(4)

Amounts include certain backlog adjustments due to contract changes and amendments. Our backlog includes contracts with subscribers for fixed broadband services in our satellite services segment. Backlog does not include anticipated purchase orders and requests for the installation of in-flight connectivity systems or future recurring in-flight internet service revenues under our commercial in-flight internet agreements in our Commercial Networks and Satellite Services segments, respectively.

(5)

Before corporate and amortization of acquired intangible assets.
