Viasat Reports $0.82 Adjusted Loss, Misses Revenue Estimates for Q1
VSAT has more than doubled off its 52-week low of $8.606 on elevated volume (2.2× avg).
Summary
Viasat reported an adjusted loss of $0.82 per share for its first quarter and revenue of $1.17 billion, which missed analyst expectations of approximately $1.20 billion. This news comes shortly after the company released its Q4 and full fiscal year 2026 results on May 28. An 8-K filing for the Q4 results indicated a return to net income for that quarter, creating a potential discrepancy or confusion regarding the reported Q1 loss. The negative Q1 financial performance, coupled with the unusual timing or potential contradiction, is likely to draw significant trader attention.
