AST management acknowledged, without fully rebutting
As the brief logged it
on the March 2026 earnings call — a soft, Q&A-only admission consistent with a broader pattern (across five calls, Aug 2024-May 2026) of cost-per-satellite guidance quietly re-based upward ($19-21M → $21-23M, attributed externally to tariffs/launch costs) while cadence targets slipped one quarter at a time without ever being characterized as a miss.
