Company snapshot — ViaSat Inc

VSAT in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Viasat provides satellite and wireless communications through two segments, Communication Services and Defense and Advanced Technologies. It sells broadband internet, in-flight connectivity and voice services, alongside military-grade terminals, encryption systems and space-system design for satellites in geostationary, medium and low earth orbit. It is based in Carlsbad, California.
Where it sits in the stack
Viasat carries no seat in Rubin, the diary's AI build-out index, and no assigned layer there. It sits instead in HALO Growth 100, our growth index outside the megacaps, within the Space & Satellite sleeve that spans the orbital economy from sub-scale operators to commercial platforms. In that sleeve it is a supplier of satellite connectivity and defence communications rather than a constraint on chip or data-centre capacity.
Who it is priced against
Its peer group in the diary is Space & Satellite within HALO Growth 100, covering launch providers, satellite manufacturers and defence-grade space platforms; the named peers are Iridium Communications, L3Harris Technologies, MDA and AST SpaceMobile. The market also compares it with SpaceX's Starlink service.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
Viasat sits in HALO Growth 100 and the Russell 1000, and it carries a Closelooknet score, a composite reading across several modules; momentum is its strongest module and quality its weakest. It has not yet featured in the diary's daily editions.
What the diary watches
The diary watches whether Viasat's underlying earnings quality narrows the gap with its stronger price momentum, since the two modules currently point in opposite directions.
