Revenue was up from $1.27 billion in 2020 to $1.35 billion in 2021, the company said, it what is expected to be its last annual report before it is taken over by Viasat for $7.3 billion.

He said the Viasat “transaction is on track and expected to close in the second half of 2022”.
Inmarsat said in its annual report that network availability was 99.9% – “three nines” rather than the “five nines” or 99.999% level to which terrestrial services aspire. “We meet the maritime safety requirements set by the International Maritime Organization for safety services,” said the company.
