Renewed authorization includes continued
authority to operate ancillary terrestrial networks
Globalstar, Inc. (NYSE American: GSAT) (“Globalstar”), the
next-generation mobile satellite and communications services
provider, today announced that the United States Federal
Communications Commission (“FCC” or “the Commission”) has issued a
radio station authorization to GUSA Licensee LLC granting it a
15-year renewal of its authority to operate numerous categories of
mobile earth terminals with its U.S. and French-licensed NGSO
satellites throughout the United States and its territories.
The Commission’s reauthorization includes Globalstar’s ability
to continue to expand its ancillary terrestrial network footprint
as well as support the hundreds of millions of users who rely upon
Globalstar for critical direct-to-device connectivity.
“We appreciate the ongoing confidence the FCC is placing in
Globalstar with the completion of the licensing renewal for our
existing mobile satellite system,” said Dr. Paul E. Jacobs, CEO of
Globalstar. “Having now received both this 15-year renewal of our
authority to operate all of our mobile earth terminals including
ancillary terrestrial networks as well as the renewal of
Globalstar’s HIBLEO-4 system received in August, the
reauthorization of our current mobile satellite system is complete.
In the future, we will focus on our mobile satellite system’s
expansion and evolution through the substantial additional
investments recently announced.”
Globalstar appreciates the time and effort of the dedicated
members of the FCC on this reauthorization.
