SES, a leading space solutions company, issued the following statement following the U.S. Federal Communications Commission approval of the Upper C-band Report & Order that makes 160 megahertz of the Upper C-band available in the contiguous United States for flexible-use, next-generation terrestrial wireless services via a system of competitive bidding. The required auction of the Upper C-band will be completed no later than July 2027, with spectrum clearing deadlines in 2030 and 2031. Gross incentive payments of approximately $5.6 billion to SES are contingent on spectrum clearing within the transition deadlines. The Order also confirms reimbursement of reasonable and necessary Upper C-band transition costs as approved by the clearinghouse.
SES CEO Adel Al-Saleh Commented:
“We commend Chairman Carr and the FCC staff for their diligence, speed, and hard work. We remain fully committed to working cooperatively with the FCC and all stakeholders as the process progresses. We are pleased that the incentive payments appropriately recognize the critical role SES will play in repurposing 160 MHz of Upper C-band spectrum for next-generation terrestrial wireless services, while ensuring C-band customers continue to receive substantially the same service. SES also appreciates the improved reimbursement process, which should support timely execution, minimize finance expenses, and help our partners move quickly. SES stands ready to support its customers and execute the transition plan.”

This press release contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements we make regarding the Upper C-band transition process.
