Gogo Inc. Reports 121% Revenue Growth to $226M in Latest Quarter

Gogo Inc. reported significant financial growth in its latest quarterly results, driven by a substantial increase in service and equipment revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the company generated total revenue of $226.0 million, a 121% increase from $102.1 million in the same period last year. Service revenue rose to $194.0 million, up from $81.9 million, while equipment revenue also saw a notable increase to $32.1 million from $20.1 million. The company achieved an operating income of $36.0 million, compared to $21.7 million in the prior year, reflecting a strong operational performance.

The financial results were bolstered by the acquisition of Satcom Direct, completed in December 2024, which has expanded Gogo's service offerings and customer base. The integration of Satcom Direct has created two reportable segments: Gogo Business Aviation (Gogo BA) and Satcom Direct. The Gogo BA segment reported a decrease in service revenue, attributed to a decline in ATG units online, while equipment revenue increased due to higher shipments of AVANCE units. The overall increase in revenue and profitability is indicative of the successful integration of Satcom Direct and the expansion of Gogo's market presence.

Operationally, Gogo's customer base has expanded, with 6,730 ATG aircraft online as of June 30, 2025, compared to 7,031 in the previous year. The company reported an average monthly connectivity service revenue per ATG aircraft of $3,445, slightly down from $3,468. The total number of GEO aircraft online also increased significantly, reflecting the growing demand for satellite-based communication solutions. Gogo's employee headcount has also risen, supporting its expanded operations and service capabilities.

Despite the positive financial performance, Gogo faced challenges, including increased operating expenses, which rose to $190.1 million from $80.4 million year-over-year. This increase was driven by higher costs associated with service revenue, equipment revenue, and general administrative expenses, including acquisition-related costs. The company reported a net income of $12.8 million for the quarter, a significant improvement from $839,000 in the prior year, although it noted that the effective income tax rate increased to 24.6% from 13.6%.

Looking ahead, Gogo remains optimistic about its growth trajectory, anticipating continued revenue increases driven by the full-year impact of the Satcom Direct acquisition and ongoing demand for its connectivity solutions. The company plans to focus on enhancing its technology offerings and expanding its market share, while also addressing the material weaknesses in its internal controls identified during the acquisition process. Gogo's management believes that its current cash position, along with cash flows from operations, will be sufficient to meet its financial obligations and support future growth initiatives.
