Here is a review of the new $ASTS investor presentation, which can be found here:

First thing is this point, which is coincidence with the roadshow guidance from the December capital raise. FUNDED for production AND launch of Block 1. This means funded until first revenue, whereupon they should have break-even cash flow Image
The TAM is very large. Note the explicit mention of IOT, wearables, etc. "unmodified, standard, existing spectrum." Image
Review of the TAM. This is important for when real long only's show-up. They will want to have near endless runway for growth and opportunity Image
ASTS will not aid in the weaponization of drones by excluding China and Russia. Made in Texas, bitches Image
This capacity ramp is important. Remember, 6 satellites is a ton of revenue capacity. 72 satellites per year can likely increase over time. This is massively inflected revenue growth Image
Look at the upper right hand corner...5Gs, just like we saw on the Vodafone test device at #MWC23. This one is a mockup (most likely). The other one, ...? Image
Strategic investors have been repeat investors. Rakuten is super duper interested in dominating Japan. They are into this for $100MM. Image

🚀Launch Update

The launch guidance tightens up from H2 2025 - 1H 2026.

The story is now for cash flow ramp expectations. The April–May 2025 FCC/NTIA volley shows AST SpaceMobile has cleared the two riskiest technical hurdles—orbital-debris compliance and 36 GHz passive-sensor protection—while quietly quadrupling its target constellation. In short, “36 GHz passive-sensor protection” refers to proving that AST’s Q/V-band feeder links will not wash out sensitive climate-monitoring instruments. The filings show AST achieves this with comfortable technical margin, eliminating a major regulatory uncertainty without sacrificing link budget or launch schedule.

🎌Rakuten Meeting

CEO Hiroshi Mikitani told a briefing Wednesday that Rakuten would provide voice, video, text and "other" services when it starts in the fourth quarter of 2026.

While Japan has dense mobile coverage in built-up areas, its difficult terrain and numerous offshore islands mean most carriers cover only about 70% of the total territory.
