Forward Guidance
The Company provides the following guidance for 2023, which now include the impact of the Federal Communications Commission's Secure and Trusted Communications Networks Reimbursement Program
Positive Outlook
- Adjusted EBITDA of $150 million to $160 million (no change from prior guidance) reflecting operating expenses of approximately $20 million for strategic and operational initiatives including Gogo 5G and Gogo Galileo and $10 million for costs incurred offset by an expected benefit for the same value of reimbursement accrual related to the FCC Program.
- Revenue growth at a compound annual growth rate of approximately 15%-17% from 2022 through 2027 versus the prior target of approximately 17%.
- Annual Adjusted EBITDA Margin in the mid-40% range by 2027 (no change from prior long-term target).
- Free Cash Flow in the range of $150 million to $200 million in 2025, without the effect of the FCC program, and growing thereafter.
- The FCC Program is expected to positively impact Free Cash Flow in 2025.
Challenges Ahead
- Total revenue in the range of $410 million to $420 million versus prior guidance in the range of $440 million to $455 million.
- Free Cash Flow of $60 million to $70 million versus prior guidance of $80 million to $90 million due to the impact of the FCC Program including increased inventory purchases and expected lag of FCC reimbursements.
- Capital expenditures at the low end of the previously provided range of $30 million to $40 million including $12 million for the Gogo 5G program and $3 million related to the FCC Program.
- We are in a two-year investment cycle to take advantage of new technologies like 5G, LEO satellite and LTE to deliver order-of-magnitude improvements in network speed and coverage for our customers, grow our addressable market by 50%, and strengthen our competitive position.
- We expect to see the payback for these investments to start in 2025 and drive substantial returns for shareholders in the latter half of the decade.
