Продажа компании Telesat?

[Sharicoff]

Если верить SpaceNews, то SES и Eutelsat (второй и третий по численному составу геостационарных спутниковых группировок операторы связи) приценивались, но пока не решаются на подобную покупку.

Пока что больше всего похоже на то, что Telesat достанется Intelsat'у. Основной интелсатовский конкурент в сфере спутниковой связи - SES - крайне этим фактом обеспокоен.

Until the new satellites are in service, Telesat expects revenue to remain stable.

For the first six months of 2011, the company reported revenue of 200 million Canadian dollars ($205 million), down 2 percent from the same period a year ago. When removing the 6 percent decline in the value of the U.S. dollar versus Canada's currency during 2011, the revenue figure would have shown an increase of 2 percent.

Telesat's EBITDA, or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, was 77 percent of revenue for the six months ending June 30, up from 75 percent a year ago.

As of June 30, the company's backlog stood at 5.4 billion Canadian dollars. Its North American satellites, which provide more than 80 percent of company revenue, were 89 percent filled, while its international satellites were 79 percent full.

Meanwhile, Telesat and its majority owner, Loral Space and Communications of New York, announced Aug. 4 that they had terminated a process to invite potential buyers to discuss a takeover of Telesat after more than a year of discussions with several parties. No acceptable bids were made, Telesat and Loral said.

Goldberg said Telesat, which in the past has floated the idea of a stock market introduction, is leaning toward a dividend recapitalization as a way of providing cash to its shareholders — Loral and Canadian pension fund PSP Investments.

Under a dividend recapitalization, Telesat would likely incur new debt that would be used to pay a special dividend to Loral and PSP.

Уже, возможно, не очень актуально.

Korea's Hanwha Systems to Explore Collaboration with Telesat and MDA Space on K-LEO Constellation
Hanwa будут делать терминалы и для K-LEO и для Lightspeed. А MDA будет делать спутники для тех и других. Хотя это пока лишь MoU.

Впрочем, почему бы не быть для Lightspeed терминалам от двух компаний? Есть же два поставщика терминалов для OneWeb.
