Our Q1 FY2025 Earnings and Shareholder Letter are out now – you can find it at the link below. It was a good quarter for us at Viasat, delivering above expectations! Our Q1 performance reflects the competitive strength in our aviation and defense businesses. Our Viasat Government defense business saw strong revenue flow-through from IP licensing in Tactical Networking and Advanced Technologies. Viasat Aviation continues its strong trajectory – with mid-teens YoY growth for both commercial and business aviation aircraft in service. And Inmarsat Maritime's recent announcement of NexusWave has been well received by the market. On Monday we announced the service launch of ViaSat-3 F1 for our aviation customers. This is an important milestone, as we build momentum and bring our new satellites into service – we have two polar HEO satellites set to launch soon, along with five state-of-the-art broadband satellites and three replenishment satellites in production. And our team is not taking the foot off the gas – this fiscal year is foundational to making continued progress in our growth outlook.
