About AST SpaceMobile

Communications Services, NEC, SIC 4899

AST SpaceMobile develops a space-based cellular broadband network designed to connect directly to standard, unmodified smartphones and mobile devices without requiring specialized hardware. The company’s planned SpaceMobile Service utilizes a constellation of low Earth orbit satellites with large phased-array antennas to deliver voice, text, data, and video connectivity to users located outside terrestrial cellular range. Alongside commercial direct-to-device communications, the company provides mission-critical communication and non-communication services to the United States government and sells ground gateway equipment, software, and integration services. Its primary commercial customers are mobile network operators, who partner with the company under revenue-sharing arrangements to extend cellular coverage to their existing mobile subscribers.

The enterprise maintains an international presence with satellite assembly, integration, and testing operations, as well as engineering and development centers, across the United States, Spain, Israel, India, and Scotland, spanning approximately 450,000 square feet of global facility space. The company is headquartered in Texas.
