Viasat: Growth Depends On How Well It Executes
Viasat looks undervalued compared to peers, yet current cash flow remains weak, due to heavy capex commitments and high leverage. Revenue mix is shifting toward recurring aviation and defense services, improving predictability, though growth still depends on flawless program execution. Sustained free cash flow and debt reduction are critical for a re-rating, but volatility will persist until satellite investments normalize.

Viasat: New Satellites In 2026 Could Push The Stock Price Up
I project continued EBITDA growth for VSAT, albeit at a slower pace than the past decade, reflecting sector headwinds and analyst expectations. Despite high debt, my conservative DCF model and peer comparisons suggest VSAT is undervalued relative to its sector, with upside potential. Valuation scenarios using 8x and 11x EV/EBITDA multiples yield target prices of $37 and $63 per share, both above current market levels.
