      • Gains in each of its three business segments, with Commercial Networks and Satellite Services showing the most growth.
      • Satellite Services revenue of $1.2 billion — up 37% compared to 2021 — due to record growth in-flight connectivity services, the RigNet and EBI acquisitions and fixed broadband growth.
      • The company ended the quarter with 1,830 aircraft utilizing its in-flight connectivity service, up about 40% year over year.
