Subsequent Events	16. Subsequent Events On July 2, 2026, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Iridium Monitor Holdings LLC (“Iridium Monitor Holdings”), completed its previously announced acquisition of the remaining 60.5% of equity interests in Aireon Holdings that the Company did not already own pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement with NAV CANADA, the Irish Air Navigation Service, ENAV S.P.A., Naviair Surveillance A/S, NATS (Services) Limited, and certain of their affiliated entities (collectively, the “Sellers”). The Company now indirectly owns all of the membership interests in Aireon Holdings and its subsidiary Aireon. The aggregate purchase price payable to the Sellers was approximately $366.7 million, of which 50% was paid in cash at the closing of the acquisition (the “Aireon Closing”) and the remaining 50% was deferred in the form of a loan by the Sellers, payable one year following the Aireon Closing pursuant to a Credit and Guaranty Agreement. Prior to the acquisition, on July 1, 2026, the Company drew down $100.0 million on its Revolving Facility as a source for cash paid at the Aireon Closing. As a result of the acquisition, the Company's debt obligations have increased, incorporating a $183.4 million one-year, non-interest-bearing loan from the sellers and the consolidation of Aireon's existing term loans, which had an outstanding balance of $154.7 million at the closing date.
