Eutelsat's US government/DoD services renewal rate collapsed to <50%
As the brief logged it
Management hedged the May 2025 drop as possibly a "knee-jerk reaction" tied to a single large non-renewed contract and the new US administration's DOGE cost-cutting, not a durable trend — but the Oct 2025 call shows it held. A genuine Q&A-hedge pattern per doctrine (the gap between "one-off" framing and a persisting number), though Eutelsat-side, not an SES contract.
