ViaSat Spectrum Value Emerges as Key Valuation Driver, Morgan Stanley Says

ViaSat (VSAT) spectrum holdings have become the "most important" swing factor in the company's valuation as demand for mobile satellite spectrum remains high, Morgan Stanley said in a report Monday.The investment bank now assigned about $6.2 billion, or roughly $42 per share, to Viasat's potentially "monetizable spectrum," representing about 44% of its updated $95 price target, according to the report.Recent deals involving mobile satellite spectrum suggest a "favorable" supply-demand backdrop as companies pursue direct-to-device services, the report said. However, uncertainty around Viasat's planned Equatys joint venture with Space42 could delay or complicate "spectrum monetization," it added.The firm also cited continued "competitive pressures" from low-Earth-orbit providers and uncertainty around the future of Viasat's defense technology business, according to the report.Morgan Stanley maintained an equal weight rating on ViaSat and raised its price target to $95 from $51.Shares of ViaSat were up 3.4% in Monday trading.Price: $83.08, Change: $+2.70, Percent Change: +3.36%

ViaSat Offers 'Valuable' Spectrum Amid Mixed Q1, Oppenheimer Says

ViaSat's (VSAT) mixed fiscal Q1 results are secondary to the prospects of monetizing its "valuable" spectrum, Oppenheimer said in a note Tuesday.The report said the mixed performance was mostly due to timing-related issues and one-time items, but the company reiterated its fiscal 2027 guidance.The note pointed to record backlog in Defense & Advanced Technologies, backing the optionality value in a sum-of-parts scenario, and progress in deploying F2/F3 satellites."Results are secondary to monetizing its spectrum, the foundation of our investment thesis, which we think remains intact and see current pressure on the stock as a buying opportunity," the report said."Scarcity of spectrum assets could make VSAT an attractive target for SPCX and other D2D operators", it added.Oppenheimer kept its outperform rating and a $140 price target.Price: $81.63, Change: $-4.53, Percent Change: -5.26%
