Revenue has grown steadily across the table, from $162.2 million in Q3 2021 to a high of $226.9 million in Q3 2025. Earnings moved less evenly. Several quarters from 2021 to 2023 were losses, the deepest at $0.24 per share in Q2 2023. Annual EPS then reached $0.96 in 2024 and $1.06 in 2025, and Q3 2025 set the quarterly high at $0.35. EPS has declined in each of the three quarters since. The first half of 2026 totals $0.29, about 38% below the $0.47 of a year earlier. Iridium missed EPS estimates in three of the last four quarters and in 8 of the last 20.

Iridium reported Q3 between October 17 and October 23 in each of the past five years, so the next report would likely come in late October 2026. It will show whether quarterly EPS recovers from the Q2 level.
