Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

  1. Basis of Presentation

The Business – Gogo Inc. (“Gogo,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is the only multi-orbit, multi-band in-flight connectivity provider offering connectivity technology purpose-built for business and military/government aviation. We have a holistic approach of providing broadband connectivity services to our customers from small to large aircraft and heavy jets through our air-to-ground (“ATG”) technology and integrated low earth orbit (“LEO”) and geostationary earth orbit (“GEO”) satellite solutions provided by multiple satellite constellations owned by our satellite network partners. We aim to deliver to our customers consistent, global tip-to-tail connectivity with a suite of software, hardware, and advanced infrastructure supported by a 24/7/365 in-person customer support team to fit their every need.

Segments – The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM makes resource and operating decisions by evaluating performance and business results of the consolidated company. As a result, the Company has a single reportable segment, with net income (loss) utilized as the performance measure.

Basis of Presentation – The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and in conformity with Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our annual audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 27, 2026 (the “2025 10-K”). These Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all material adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly state, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

The results of operations and cash flows for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

We hadone class of common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates the significant estimates and bases such estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied on a prospective basis, however, retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have upon our consolidated financial statements and related notes.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which details the criteria for capitalization of internal-use software costs.

We are currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have upon our consolidated financial statements and related notes.

  1. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the treasury stock method for stock-based compensation. Contingently issuable shares are only included in the diluted earnings per share computation once all necessary conditions have been satisfied.

The diluted earnings per share calculations exclude the effect of stock options, deferred stock units, performance stock units, restricted stock units and the potential Earnout Liability related to the acquisition of Satcom Direct when the computation is anti-dilutive. For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026, the weighted average number of shares excluded from the computation was 90.0 million and 70.3 million, respectively. For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025, the weighted average number of shares excluded from the computation was 33.8 million and 26.5 million, respectively.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for thethree- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Remaining performance obligations

As of September 30, 2026, the aggregate amount of the transaction price in our contracts allocated to the remaining unsatisfied performance obligations (“RPO”) was approximately$442 million and excludes consideration from contracts that have an original duration of one year or less. Approximately$427 million of the RPO primarily represents connectivity and entertainment service revenues which are recognized as services are provided, which is expected to occur through the remaining term of the contracts. Our contracts vary in length and generally have terms oftwo toten years. We expect to recognize approximately 40% of our connectivity and entertainment service RPO within the next year, approximately 48% inone tofive years and the remaining 12% infive toten years. The remaining$15 million of the RPO represents future equipment revenue that is expected to be recognized primarily within the next three years as equipment is shipped.

  1. Government Assistance

Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) Reimbursement Program

On July 15, 2022, the Company was notified that it was approved for participation in the FCC Reimbursement Program, designed to reimburse providers of advanced communications services for reasonable costs incurred in the required removal, replacement, and disposal of covered communications equipment or services, that have been deemed to pose a national security risk, from their networks. Pursuant to the FCC Reimbursement Program, the FCC approved up to approximately $334 millionin reimbursements to the Company to cover documented and approved costs to (i) remove and securely destroy all ZTE communications equipment and services in the Company’s terrestrial U.S. networks and replace such equipment and (ii) remove and replace certain equipment installed on aircraft operated by the Company’s ATG customers that is not compatible with the terrestrial equipment that will replace ZTE equipment. Due to an initial shortfall in the amount appropriated by Congress to fund the FCC Reimbursement Program, approximately $132 million of the approved amount was allocated to the Company under the program. Following passage of the Fiscal Year 2025 National Defense Authorization Act, the Company was allocated its full approved amount of approximately $334 million and the program completion deadline was extended to May 8, 2027.

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we have recorded a$30.7 million and $27.8 million receivable from the FCC, respectively, which are included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We perform our annual impairment test of our indefinite-lived intangible assets during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, and the results from the test performed in the fourth quarter of 2025 indicated no impairment. We also reevaluate the useful life of indefinite-lived intangible assets each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life.

2021 Credit Agreement

On April 30, 2021, Gogo and Gogo Intermediate Holdings LLC (“GIH”) (a wholly owned subsidiary of Gogo) entered into a credit agreement (the “Original 2021 Credit Agreement,” and, as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “2021 Credit Agreement”) among Gogo, GIH, the lenders and issuing banks party thereto and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent, which provides for (i) a term loan credit facility (the “2021 Term Loan Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $725.0 million, issued with a discount of 0.5%, and (ii) a revolving credit facility (the “2021 Revolving Facility” and together with the 2021 Term Loan Facility, the “2021 Facilities”) of up to $100.0 million, which includes a letter of credit sub-facility. As of the Closing Date (as defined below), the 2021 Term Loan Facility consists of two tranches: Initial Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $33.4 million (the “Initial Term Loan Facility”), which mature on April 30, 2028; and the 2026 Extended Term Loans (as defined below) in an aggregate principal amount of $544.4 million (the “2026 Extended Term Loan Facility”), which mature on October 31, 2030.

On December 3, 2024, Gogo and GIH entered into a second amendment to the 2021 Credit Agreement, by and among, Gogo, GIH, guarantors party thereto, Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto, among other purposes,(a) increase the aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Revolving Facility to an aggregate amount equal to $122 million and (b)extend the maturity date of the 2021 Revolving Facility to December 3, 2029 (subject to such maturity date springing to the date that is 90 days prior to the then-current maturity date of (a) the 2021 Term Loan Facility under the 2021 Credit Agreement and (b) the HPS Term Loan Facility under the HPS Credit Agreement under certain conditions).

On November 6, 2026 (the “Closing Date”), Gogo and GIH entered into a third amendment to the 2021 Credit Agreement, by and among Gogo, GIH, the guarantors party thereto and the lenders party thereto, to, among other purposes, extend the maturity of the term loans held by consenting lenders under the 2021 Term Loan Facility by converting such term loans into a new class of term loans, which are the 2026 Extended Term Loans. The third amendment includes a mechanic for holders of the Initial Term Loan Facility to convert their Initial Term Loans into 2026 Extended Term Loans within a period of time after the Closing Date, with such conversion to be effective as of the Closing Date. The third amendment also requires GIH to prepay $25.0 million of the 2026 Extended Term Loans on the Closing Date (with any additional holders of Initial Term Loans converting after the Closing Date to receive their pro rata share of such amount), $30.0 million of the 2026 Extended Term Loans on or prior to December 31, 2026 and an additional $20.0 millionof 2026 Extended Term Loans on or prior to December 31, 2027, in each case subject to reduction for voluntary prepayments and repurchases. These additional mandatory prepayments apply only to the 2026 Extended Term Loans. Subject to the right of individual lenders to decline receipt of prepayments, mandatory prepayments from asset disposition proceeds, debt incurrence proceeds and excess cash flow are allocated pro rata among the outstanding term loan tranches. The third amendment also effects certain other changes to the 2021 Credit Agreement described below.

The Initial Term Loan Facility amortized in quarterly installments equal to one percent of the aggregate initial principal amount thereof per annum, with the remaining balance payable upon final maturity of the Initial Term Loan Facility. There are no amortization payments under the Revolving Facility. The 2026 Extended Term Loans amortize in quarterly installments commencing on March 31, 2027 equal to 0.75% of their initial aggregate principal amount through and including March 31, 2028,1.125% thereafter through and including March 31, 2029 and 1.25% thereafter, subject to reduction for appli cable prepayments, with the remaining balance payable at maturity.

The Initial Term Loan Facility bears annual interest at a floating rate measured by reference to, at GIH’s option, either (i)an adjusted term secured overnight financing rate as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“SOFR”) (subject to a floor of 0.75%) plus an applicable margin of 3.75% and a credit spread adjustment of approximately 0.11%, 0.26% or 0.43% per annum based on 1-month, 3-month or 6-month term SOFR, respectively, or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin of 2.75%. The 2026 Extended Term Loans bear annual interest, at GIH’s option, at either (i) term SOFR (subject to a floor of 0.00%), with no credit spread adjustment, plus an applicable margin of 5.75% or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin of 4.75%.

Loans outstanding under the Revolving Facility bear annual interest at a floating rate measured by reference to, at GIH’s option, either (i)an adjusted term SOFR rate (subject to a floor of 0.00%) plus an applicable margin ranging from 3.50% to 4.00% per annum depending on GIH’s senior secured first lien net leverage ratio or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.50% to 3.00% per annum depending on GIH’s senior secured first lien net leverage ratio. Additionally, unused commitments under the Revolving Facility are subject to a fee ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% per annum depending on GIH’s senior secured first lien net leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2026, the fee for unused commitments under the Revolving Facility was 0.25% and the applicable margin was 4.00% for SOFR rate loans and 3.00% for alternate rate loans.

The 2021 Facilities may be prepaid at GIH’s option at any time without premium or penalty (other than customary breakage costs), subject to minimum principal payment amount requirements. On May 3, 2023, the Company prepaid $100 million of the outstanding principal amount of the 2021 Term Loan Facility. This prepayment satisfied the required amortization payments for the remaining term of the Initial Term Loan Facility. Optional term loan prepayments may be allocated among the Initial Term Loan Facility and the 2026 Extended Term Loan Facility as directed by GIH.

Subject to certain exceptions and de minimis thresholds, both the Initial Term Loan Facility and the 2026 Extended Term Loans are subject to mandatory prepayments in an amount equal to:

100% of the net proceeds of certain asset sales, insurance recovery and condemnation events;

100% of the net proceeds of certain debt incurrences; and

50% of annual excess cash flow (as defined in the 2021 Credit Agreement) above $10 million, subject to reduction to 25% and 0% if specified senior secured first lien net leverage ratio targets are met.

Mandatory prepayments from asset disposition proceeds, debt incurrence proceeds and excess cash flow are generally allocated pro rata among the outstanding term loan tranches, subject to applicable exceptions and lender declination rights. The additional$25.0 million, $30.0 million and $20.0 million prepayments described above apply solely to the 2026 Extended Term Loans.

The 2021 Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants. The negative covenants include restrictions on, among other things: incurrence of indebtedness or issuance of disqualified equity interests; incurrence or existence of liens; consolidations or mergers; activities of Gogo and any subsidiary holding a license issued by the FCC; investments, loans, advances, guarantees or acquisitions; asset sales; dividends or other distributions on equity; purchase, redemption or retirement of capital stock; payment or redemption of certain junior indebtedness; entry into other agreements that restrict the ability to incur liens securing the 2021 Facilities; and amendment of organizational documents; in each case subject to customary exceptions. The Third Amendment introduces provisions restricting the Company’s ability to undertake certain liability management transactions by restricting priming/subordination and non-pro-rata treatment of the 2026 Extended Term Loans and/or lenders of the 2026 Extended Term Loans, subject to specified exceptions, and introduces provisions requiring the consent of a supermajority of the lenders of the 2026 Extended Term Loans to approve or waive.

The Revolving Facility includes a financial covenant set at a maximum senior secured first lien net leverage ratio of 7.50:1.00, which will apply if the outstanding amount of loans and unreimbursed letter of credit drawings thereunder at the end of any fiscal quarter exceeds 35% of the aggregate of all commitments thereunder.

The 2021 Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, which, if any of them occurred, would permit or require the principal, premium, if any, and interest on all of the then outstanding obligations under the 2021 Facilities to be due and payable immediately and the commitments under the Revolving Facility to be terminated.

The Revolving Facility is available for working capital and general corporate purposes of GIH and its subsidiaries and was undrawn as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

As of both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the outstanding principal amount of the 2021 Term Loan Facility was$601.4 million, the unaccreted debt discount was$0.8 million and$1.2 million, respectively, and the net carrying amount was$600.6 million and$600.2 million, respectively.

We paid approximately $21.6 million of loan origination and financing costs related to the 2021 Facilities, which are being accounted for as deferred financing costs on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized over the terms of the 2021 Facilities. Total amortization expense was$0.8 million and$2.3 million, respectively, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026, and $0.7 million and $2.2 million, respectively, for the prior-year periods and is included in interest expense in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the balance of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the 2021 Facilities was$5.1 million and $7.4 million, respectively. We paid approximately $8.8 million of loan origination and financing costs related the 2026 Extended Term Loan Facility.

Gogo, GIH, and each direct and indirect wholly-owned U.S. restricted subsidiary of GIH (Gogo and such subsidiaries collectively, the “Guarantors”) are also party to a guarantee agreement, dated April 30, 2021 (the “2021 Guarantee Agreement”), in favor of Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as collateral agent (the “2021 Collateral Agent”), by which GIH and the Guarantors guarantee the obligations under the 2021 Facilities and certain other secured obligations as set forth in the 2021 Guarantee Agreement, and GIH and the Guarantors entered into a collateral agreement, dated April 30, 2021 (the “2021 Collateral Agreement”), in favor of the 2021 Collateral Agent, whereby GIH and the Guarantors grant a security interest in substantially all of their respective tangible and intangible assets (including the equity interests in each direct material wholly-owned U.S. restricted subsidiary owned by GIH or any Guarantor, and 65% of the equity interests in any non-U.S. subsidiary held directly by GIH or any Guarantor), subject to certain exceptions, to secure the obligations under the 2021 Facilities and certain other secured obligations as set forth in the 2021 Collateral Agreement. The liens granted under the 2021 Term Loan Facility are subject to an intercreditor agreement and arepari passu with the liens granted under the HPS Term Loan Facility (as defined below). The third amendment to the 2021 Credit Agreement adds a requirement for certain foreign subsidiaries to join as guarantors. Other foreign subsidiaries are required to provide guarantees if their assets, revenues or Consolidated EBITDA exceed the applicable individual materiality thresholds, or if they cease to qualify as immaterial because the applicable aggregate thresholds are exceeded. Additional collateral granted pursuant to the third amendment to the 2021 Credit Agreement will also secure the obligations under the HPS Term Loan Facility on apari passu basis, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

HPS Credit Agreement

On December 3, 2024, the Company and GIH entered into a credit agreement (the “HPS Credit Agreement” and together with the 2021 Credit Agreement, the “Credit Agreements”) with HPS Investment Partners, LLC (“HPS”), as the administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto, which provides for a term loan credit facility (the “HPS Term Loan Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $250 million. The HPS Term Loan Facility amortizes in quarterly installments equal to one percent of the aggregate initial principal amount thereof per annum, with the remaining balance payable upon final maturity of the HPS Term Loan Facility on April 30, 2028.

The HPS Term Loan Facility bears annual interest at a floating rate measured by reference to, at the Company’s option, either (i) an adjusted term SOFR (subject to a floor of 1.00%) plus an initial applicable margin of 6.00%, which is subject to two leverage-based step-downs of up to 0.25% each or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin of 5.00%, which is subject to two leverage-based step-downs of up to 0.25% each.

The HPS Term Loan Facility may be prepaid at the Company’s option, at any time, without premium or penalty (other than customary breakage costs, and except that during the period from 12 months to 24 months following the closing of the HPS Credit Agreement, certain prepayments of the HPS Term Loan Facility are subject to a 1.00% prepayment premium), subject to minimum principal repayment amount requirements.

Subject to certain exceptions and de minimis thresholds, the HPS Term Loan Facility is subject to mandatory prepayments in an amount equal to:

100% of the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales, insurance recovery and condemnation events;

100% of the net cash proceeds of certain debt offerings; and

75% of annual excess cash flow (as defined in the HPS Credit Agreement), subject to reduction to 50% if specified senior secured first lien net leverage ratio targets are met.

The HPS Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants. The negative covenants include restrictions on, among other things: the incurrence of indebtedness or issuance of disqualified equity interests; the incurrence or existence of liens; consolidations or mergers; activities of the Company; the making of investments, loans, advances, guarantees or acquisitions; asset sales; the making of dividends or other distributions on equity; the purchase, redemption or retirement of capital stock; payment or redemption of certain junior indebtedness; activities of Federal Communications Commission license holders; entry into other agreements that restrict the ability to incur liens securing the HPS Term Loan Facility.

The HPS Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, which, if any of them occurred, would permit or require the principal, premium, if any, and interest on all of the then outstanding obligations under the HPS Term Loan Facility to be due and payable immediately.

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the outstanding principal amount of the HPS Term Loan Facility was$223.9 million and $246.9 million, respectively, the unaccreted debt discount was$2.3 million and $3.6 million, respectively, and the net carrying amount was$221.6 million and $243.3 million, respectively. In accordance with the HPS Credit Agreement, the Company paid $21.1 million of the outstanding principal amount of the HPS Term Loan Facility in April 2026. As a result, the Company expensed $0.4 million of the unaccreted debt discount and deferred financing costs, which are included in Loss on extinguishment of debt in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for thenine-month period ended September 30, 2026.

We paid approximately $2.2 million of loan origination and financing costs related to the HPS Credit Agreement which are being accounted for as deferred financing costs on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized over the term of the HPS Credit Agreement. Total amortization expense was$0.1 million and$0.5 million, respectively, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026, and $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, for the prior-year periods and is included in interest expense in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the balance of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the HPS Credit Agreement was$1.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

On December 3, 2024, Gogo, GIH, and the Guarantors entered into a guarantee agreement (the “HPS Guarantee Agreement”) in favor of HPS Investment Partners, LLC, as collateral agent (the “HPS Collateral Agent”), whereby GIH and the Guarantors guarantee the obligations under the HPS Term Loan Facility and certain other secured obligations as set forth in the HPS Guarantee Agreement, and GIH and the Guarantors entered into a collateral agreement (the “HPS Collateral Agreement”), in favor of the HPS Collateral Agent, whereby GIH and the Guarantors grant a security interest in substantially all of their respective tangible and intangible assets (including the equity interests in each direct material wholly-owned U.S. restricted subsidiary owned by GIH or any Guarantor, and 65% of the equity interests in any non-U.S. subsidiary held directly by GIH or any Guarantor), subject to certain exceptions, to secure the obligations under the HPS Term Loan Facility and certain other secured obligations as set forth in the HPS Collateral Agreement. The liens granted under the HPS Term Loan Facility are subject to an intercreditor agreement and arepari passu with the liens granted under the 2021 Term Loan Facility.

  1. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

We are exposed to interest rate risk on our variable rate borrowings. We currently use interest rate caps to manage our exposure to interest rate changes, and have designated these interest rate caps as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the earnings impact of the derivatives designated as cash flow hedges is recorded upon the recognition of the variable interest payments related to the hedged debt.

In May 2021, we purchased interest rate caps with an aggregate notional amount of $650.0 million for $8.6 million. The cost of the interest rate caps will be amortized to interest expense using the caplet method, from the effective date through the termination date. We receive payments in the amount calculated pursuant to the caps for any period in which the daily compounded SOFR rate plus a credit spread adjustment recommended by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee of 0.26% increases beyond the applicable strike rate. The notional amounts of the interest rate caps periodically decrease over the life of the caps.

The notional amounts, strike rates and end dates of the cap agreements are as follows(notional amounts in thousands):

Start DateEnd DateNotionalAmountsStrike Rate
7/31/20217/30/2023$650,0000.75%
7/31/20237/30/2024525,0000.75%
7/31/20247/30/2025350,0001.25%
7/31/20257/30/2026250,0002.25%
7/31/20267/30/2027200,0002.75%

We record the effective portion of changes in the fair value of our cash flow hedges to other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, and subsequently reclassify these amounts into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction is recognized. The amounts included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will be reclassified to interest expense in the event the hedges are no longer considered effective, in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. No gains or losses of our cash flow hedges were considered to be ineffective and reclassified from other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings for thethree- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. We estimate that approximately $1.2 million currently recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will be recognized in earnings over the next 12 months. We assess the effectiveness of the hedges on an ongoing basis, and the remaining outstanding caps are still considered to be highly effective, and remain designated as a cash flow hedge. Cash flows from interest rate caps are classified in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as investing activities.

For the three-month period ended September 30, 2026, we recorded a decrease in fair value of the interest rate caps of $0.3 million, net of an immaterial amount of tax, and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026, we recorded a decrease in fair value of the interest rate caps of $0.8 million, net of an immaterial amount of tax. For the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, we recorded a decrease in fair value of the interest rate caps of$1.6 million, net of tax of $0.4 million and for thenine-month period ended September 30, 2025, we recorded a decrease in fair value of the interest rate caps of $7.2 million, net of tax of $1.9 million. Increases and decreases in fair value on interest rate caps above exclude amortization of the purchase price paid for the interest rate caps.

When derivatives are used, we are exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparties; however, non-performance is not anticipated. ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, requires companies to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the balance sheet. The fair values of the interest rate derivatives are based on quoted market prices for similar instruments from commercial banks (based on significant observable inputs - Level 2 inputs).

The following table presents the fair value of our interest rate derivatives included in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the periods presented (in thousands):

September 30, · December 31,
Derivatives designated as hedging instrumentsBalance sheet location20262025
Current portion of interest rate capsPrepaid expenses and other current assets$2,996$2,568
Non-current portion of interest rate capsOther non-current assets$—$1,108

Fair Value Measurement

Our derivative assets and liabilities consist principally of interest rate caps, which are carried at fair value based on significant observable inputs (Level 2 inputs). Derivatives entered into by us are typically executed over-the-counter and are valued using discounted cash flows along with fair value models that primarily use market observable inputs. These models take into account a variety of factors including, where applicable, maturity, interest rate yield curves, and counterparty credit risks.

  1. Interest Costs

We capitalize a portion of our interest on funds borrowed during the active construction period of major capital projects. Capitalized interest is added to the cost of the underlying assets and amortized over the useful lives of the assets.

The following is a summary of our interest costs for thethree- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 and 2025(in thousands):

  1. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

A three-tier fair value hierarchy has been established which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:

Level 1 - defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

Level 2 - defined as observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

Level 3 - defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

Refer to Note 9, “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” for fair value information relating to our interest rate caps.

Earnout Liability:

In connection with the acquisition of Satcom Direct, LLC and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Satcom Direct”) in December 2024, the purchase price included up to an additional$225 million in potential earnout payments tied to realizing certain financial performance milestones over a four-year period following the acquisition (the “Earnout Liability”). Earnout payments in respect of the first three years are payable solely in cash, and any earnout payment in respect of the fourth year is payable in two parts: the first part is payable in cash, and the second part is payable in cash or common stock of the Company, at the Company’s election. The fair value of the Earnout Liability was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation based on future gross profit projections of Satcom Direct, gross profit volatility rates of comparable companies and a risk adjusted discount rate. The fair value measurement was based on significant unobservable inputs and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. The Earnout Liability has an estimated fair value of$40.3 million and $71.9 million as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. In April 2026, the Company paid cash of $40.0 million related to the 2025 financial performance milestones of the Earnout Liability.

Investment in Convertible Note:

On February 26, 2024, Gogo invested $5 million in a convertible note offering (“Investment in Convertible Note”). The Investment in Convertible Note accrues interest at 5% per annum, payable upon maturity of the note or upon conversion, and matures two years after the date of issuance. In February 2026, the maturity date of the note was extended for two additional years. In connection with the amendment, the Company was issued warrants to purchase common stock of the issuer. We have elected to measure our Investment in Convertible Note, including the warrants, using the fair value option and record changes in fair value, including accrued interest, in Other (income) expense, net on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company elected the fair value option for the Investment in Convertible Note to eliminate complexities of applying certain accounting models.

The Investment in Convertible Note is included in Other non-current assets and in Prepaid expenses and other current assets on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, andthe reconciliation of beginning and ending balances were as follows(in thousands):

Debt:

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our only financial assets and liabilities disclosed but not measured at fair value are the 2021 Term Loan Facility and the HPS Term Loan Facility, which are reflected on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at cost. The fair value measurements are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy since they are based on quoted market prices of our instruments in markets that are not active. We estimated the fair values of the 2021 Term Loan Facility and the HPS Term Loan Facility by calculating the upfront cash payments a market participant would require to assume these obligations. The upfront cash payments used in the calcula tions of fair values on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, excluding any issuance costs, are the amounts that a market participant would be willing to lend at such date to an entity with a credit rating similar to ours and that would allow such an entity to achieve sufficient cash inflows to cover the scheduled cash outflows under the 2021 Term Loan Facility and HPS Term Loan Facility.

The fair value and carrying value of debt as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were as follows(in thousands):

September 30, 2026 · December 31, 2025
Fair Value (1) · CarryingValue · Fair Value (1) · CarryingValue
2021 Term Loan Facility$505,000$600,589(2)$550,000$600,225(2)
HPS Term Loan Facility$203,000$221,631(3)$238,000$243,273(3)

(1)

Fair value amounts are rounded to the nearest million.

(2)

Carrying value of the 2021 Term Loan Facility reflects the unaccreted debt discount of$0.8 million and $1.2 million as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. See Note 8, “Long-Term Debt and Other Liabilities,” for further information.

(3)

Carrying value of the HPS Term Loan Facility reflects the unaccreted debt discount of$2.3 million and $3.6 million as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. See Note 8, “Long-Term Debt and Other Liabilities,” for further information.

  1. Income Tax

The effective income tax rates for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 were 51.8% and 62.8%, respectively, compared to(242.8)% and 35.3%, respectively, for the prior-year periods. The effective income tax rates for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 were higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to a higher estimated annual effective tax rate, driven by the greater relative impact of permanent tax differences, including stock-based compensation and non-deductible officer’s compensation, as well as state income taxes. For thethree-month period ended September 30, 2025, our effective income tax rate was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21%primarily due to a small pretax loss and nondeductible officer’s compensation. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025, our effective income tax rate was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to state income taxes and nondeductible officer’s compensation, partially offset by tax benefits related to domestic research and development tax credits.

We regularly assess the need for a valuation allowance related to our deferred income tax assets to determine, based on the weight of all available positive and negative evidence, whether it is more likely than not that some or all of such deferred assets will not be realized. In our assessments, the Company considers recent financial operating results, the scheduled expiration of our net operating losses, future taxable income, the reversal of existing taxable differences, and tax planning strategies. The remaining valuation allowance is still required for deferred tax assets related to foreign, state and local net operating losses and a valuation allowance related to our convertible note investment, as it is more likely than not as of September 30, 2026 that these deferred tax assets will not be realized.

We are subject to taxation and file income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction, various states, and several foreign jurisdictions including, but not limited to, Canada, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Australia, Brazil and Singapore. With a few exceptions, as of September 30, 2026, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, local or foreign examinations by tax authorities for years before 2010.

We record penalties and interest relating to uncertain tax positions in the income tax provision line item in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. No penalties or interest related to uncertain tax positions were recorded for thethree- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, and as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we didnot have a liability recorded for interest or potential penalties.

  1. Stock-Based Compensation and Retirement Plans

Stock-Based Compensation —As of September 30, 2026, we maintained the Amended and Restated 2024 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “A&R 2024 Plan”). The A&R 2024 Plan provides for the grant of both equity and cash awards, including non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance awards (shares and units), restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), deferred share units and other stock-based awards and dividend equivalents to eligible employees, directors and consultants, as determined by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors. See Note 14, “Stock-Based Compensation and Retirement Plans,” in our 2025 10-K for further information regarding the 2024 Plan. The majority of our equity grants are awarded on an annual basis.

Additionally, in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Satcom Direct on December 3, 2024,2,275,000 shares were granted, consisting of a combination of RSUs and performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) (together, the “Inducement

Awards”)by the Compensation Committee. The RSUs will vest in equal annual installments over thefive-year period following the grant date. The PSUs are subject to performance-based vesting and will vest when the performance-based vesting conditions are met. Though not awarded pursuant to the 2024 Plan, the Inducement Awards have been issued subject to the terms and conditions of the 2024 Plan.

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026, no options to purchase shares of common stock were granted, options to purchase 61,666 shares of common stock were exercised, no options to purchase shares of common stock were forfeited and 160,514 options to purchase shares of common stock expired.

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026,3,039,955 RSUs were granted,1,138,455 RSUs vested and 344,650 RSUs were forfeited. The fair value of the RSUs granted during thenine-month period ended September 30, 2026 was approximately $11.8 million, which will generally be recognized over a period offour years.

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026,422,341 deferred stock units were granted,320,979 vested and none were forfeited. The fair value of the deferred stock units granted during thenine-month period ended September 30, 2026 was approximately$1.2 million, which will generally be recognized in 2026.

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026,158,089 shares of common stock were issued under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Retirement Plans — We have a 401(k) plan for U.S.-based employees, as well as various defined contribution plans for international employees. Eligible U.S. employees may make tax-deferred contributions under the 401(k) plan, subject to Internal Revenue Service limitations. We match contributions towards the 401(k) plan and international defined contribution plans, subject to annual limitations. Our matching contributions were$0.9 million and$2.5 million, respectively, during the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026, and $1.0 million and $3.1 million, respectively, during the prior-year periods.

  1. Leases

Operating and Financing Leases — We determine whether a contract contains a lease at contract inception and calculate the lease liability and right-of-use asset using our incremental borrowing rate. We have operating lease agreements primarily related to cell sites, data centers, satellites and office buildings. Our cell site leases generally have terms offivetoten years, with renewal options for an additional five to 25 years. For certain cell sites, the renewal options are deemed to be reasonably certain to be exercised. Our data center leases have original terms between one to four years with unlimited one-year renewal options, some of which are reasonably certain to be exercised. Our building leases have original terms of ten years, with renewal options for an additional five years, which are reasonably certain to be exercised. We recognize operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As of September 30, 2026, there were no significant leases which had not commenced.

Contractual Commitments – We have agreements with various vendors under which we have remaining commitments to purchase hardware components and development services. Such commitments will become payable as we receive the hardware components, or as development services are provided.

SmartSky Litigation –On February 28, 2022, SmartSky Networks, LLC (“SmartSky”) brought suit against Gogo Inc. and its subsidiary Gogo Business Aviation LLC in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware (the “Court”) alleging that Gogo 5G infringes four patents owned by the plaintiff. On February 21, 2023, the plaintiff amended its complaint to allege that Gogo 5G infringes two additional patents that had been recently issued to the plaintiff. The suit seeks compensatory damages as well as treble damages for alleged willful infringement and reimbursement of plaintiff's costs, disbursements and attorneys' fees. On May 29, 2024, Gogo Inc. and its subsidiary Gogo Business Aviation LLC amended their answer and counterclaims in the same suit, alleging that three of the six patents asserted by the plaintiff are unenforceable due to inequitable conduct before the U.S. Patent Office. A number of dispositive motions were filed on October 25, 2025, and the Court issued orders resolving those motions. SmartSky’s motions were denied. Gogo’s motion for summary judgment of invalidity on one of SmartSky’s asserted patents was granted. The Court also granted Gogo’s motion for summary judgment of no lost profits and Gogo’s motion to exclude SmartSky’s damages expert’s opinions on lost profits and reasonable royalty damages. On November 17, 2025, the Court commenced a jury trial on the plaintiff’s claims. On November 21, 2025, the jury determined that Gogo willfully infringed the plaintiff’s asserted patents and returned a verdict in the total amount of $22.7 million. A one-day bench trial was held on March 4, 2026, to address Gogo’s inequitable conduct defense. Post-trial briefs on the jury trial were completed on April 29, 2026. Post-trial briefs on the bench trial were completed on May 8, 2026. On September 30, 2026, the Court granted Gogo’s post-trial motion as to damages, ruling that SmartSky failed to prove recoverable damages. The Court denied Gogo’s post-trial motion in all other respects and resolved Gogo’s inequitable conduct defense against Gogo. Final judgment has not been entered as Gogo’s counterclaim suit remains pending, as discussed below. On November 3, 2026, Gogo and SmartSky filed a joint motion requesting entry of final judgment on SmartSky’s claims against Gogo. We will vigorously defend our position in the infringement suit in the appellate court if necessary. The outcome of the litigation is inherently uncertain.

On March 5, 2024, Gogo Inc. and its subsidiary Gogo Business Aviation LLC filed counterclaims in the same suit, alleging that SmartSky’s ATG network, Flagship equipment, and LITE ATG equipment infringe three patents owned by Gogo. Gogo’s counterclaim suit seeks an unspecified amount of compensatory damages as well as reimbursement of Gogo's costs and attorneys’ fees. On April 10, 2024, the Court held that Gogo's counterclaims would proceed under a separate schedule and would be tried separately from SmartSky’s claims. On December 31, 2025, Gogo Inc. and its subsidiary Gogo Business Aviation LLC amended their counterclaims to add Apcela IFC JV, LLC as a counterclaim defendant. On July 22, 2026, the Court issued its Markman order. Under a schedule agreed upon by the parties, fact discovery will be completed by February 24, 2027, with dispositive motions due August 13, 2027. A trial date has been scheduled for December 2027.

On December 16, 2024, SmartSky sued Gogo Inc. and its subsidiaries in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of North Carolina alleging that Gogo maintains an illegal monopoly over air-to-ground broadband inflight connectivity products and services and has blocked SmartSky from entering the market in violation of antitrust laws. SmartSky also alleges claims of false advertising, unfair and deceptive trade practices, and tortious interference. The suit seeks actual damages, treble damages, punitive damages, disgorgement of profits, reimbursement of plaintiff's costs, attorneys’ fees, pre- and post-judgment interest, and interest on actual damages. On March 14, 2025, Gogo Inc. and its subsidiary Gogo Business Aviation LLC filed a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim. On July 10, 2026, the parties submitted Court-ordered briefing on the issue of whether a final judgment in the Delaware patent case would be preclusive in this case. The motion to dismiss is still pending. Discovery is expected to be completed by February 5, 2027 and a trial date has been scheduled for July 12, 2027. We will vigorously defend our position in this lawsuit. The outcome of the litigation is inherently uncertain.

HPS Litigation – On Sept ember 29, 2026, HPS, as the administrative agent of the HPS Credit Agreement, filed a lawsuit against Gogo Inc., GIH and other subsidiaries in the Supreme Court for State of New York, County of New York, claiming that GIH as borrower, and Gogo Inc. and the other subsidiaries as guarantors, breached the HPS Credit Agreement when GIH failed to pay an additional amount of approximately $15 million in April 2026 allegedly owed to the lenders party to the HPS Credit Agreement under the mandatory prepayment provision for 2025 excess cash flow. The Company paid $21.1 million of the outstanding principal amount of the HPS Term Loan Facility in April 2026 as scheduled under the mandatory prepayment provision for the 2025 excess cash flow. The suit seeks a money judgment of approximately $15 million, default interest, a declaratory judgment regarding the excess cash flow calculation for fiscal year 2025 and subsequent fiscal years, pre- and post-judgment interest, and attorneys' fees and costs of collection. The Company’s answer to HPS’s complaint is due on November 20, 2026. The lawsuit remains in its early stages and, at this point, we cannot reasonably predict its outcome or any potentially associated losses, which are inherently uncertain. We believe the Company has strong defenses to the asserted claims, and we will vigorously defend our position in the lawsuit.

From time to time we may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We cannot predict with certainty the outcome of any litigation or the potential for future litigation. With respect to such legal proceedings, we accrue a loss when it is probable and its amount can be reasonably estimated. Regardless of the outcome of any particular litigation and the merits of any particular claim, litigation can have a material adverse impact on our Company due to, among other reasons, any injunctive relief granted, which could inhibit our ability to operate our business, amounts paid as damages or in settlement of any such matter, diversion of management resources and defense costs. The Company’s accrual for probable and estimable loss contingencies for the aforementioned litigation in which we are a defendant was $10.0 million and $11.5 million as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and is recorded in Accrued liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
