VanEck Associates meningkatkan kepemilikannya atas saham AST SpaceMobile (NASDAQ: ASTS) sebesar 125% pada Q3 2025, seperti yang dilaporkan MarketBeat minggu lalu. Manajer investasi yang berbasis di NYC ini sekarang memiliki 782.041 saham dari perusahaan telekomunikasi satelit rintisan tersebut, kepemilikan senilai $69,7 juta.
Kedengarannya mengesankan? Ini menjadi lebih baik (bagi VanEck). Menurut pengajuan SEC, kepemilikan saham AST SpaceMobile perusahaan tersebut hanya bernilai $38,4 juta pada saat mengungkapkan pembeliannya. Itu berarti VanEck telah menghasilkan keuntungan 81% atas AST dalam waktu kurang dari enam bulan.

Wall Street menyukai AST SpaceMobile
Semua orang menyukai pemenang -- terutama di Wall Street. Seperti yang ditunjukkan MarketBeat, investor institusional telah berbondong-bondong ke saham AST, dengan perusahaan termasuk Vanguard, Invesco, dan Dimensional Fund Advisors semuanya secara signifikan meningkatkan kepemilikan mereka.
Apa yang mendorong investor institusional untuk berinvestasi di AST SpaceMobile? Nah, perusahaan tersebut mungkin telah mencapai titik balik pada kuartal lalu. "Untuk pertama kalinya pada tahun 2025, AST SpaceMobile menjadi bisnis yang menghasilkan pendapatan" pada Q4, seperti yang dipamerkan oleh CEO Abel Avellan sebelumnya bulan ini.
Meskipun satelit perusahaan tersebut belum siap untuk penggunaan komersial, pendapatan yang dilaporkan melonjak menjadi $70,9 juta pada tahun 2025 berkat beberapa kontrak pemerintah AS. AST menjanjikan pertumbuhan pendapatan lebih lanjut tahun ini dari mitra telekomunikasi selulernya dan kontrak pemerintahnya, dan untuk memulai "aktivasi komersial awal."
AST baru-baru ini meluncurkan satelit BlueBird keenamnya dan berencana untuk meluncurkan satelit ketujuhnya bulan ini. Peluncuran di masa depan akan dilakukan setiap bulan atau dua bulan, dan akan membawa lebih banyak satelit per peluncuran, sehingga AST akan mengakhiri tahun 2026 dengan antara 45 dan 60 satelit di orbit, kata perusahaan.
Haruskah Anda menyukai saham AST SpaceMobile juga?
AST memulai dengan lambat dalam menempatkan satelitnya di orbit, tidak diragukan lagi. Tetapi jika memenuhi janjinya dan beralih dari enam BlueBird di orbit (sekarang) menjadi 60 (dalam sembilan bulan), itu seharusnya cukup untuk mendukung setidaknya pembukaan "beta" layanan satelit direct-to-cell-nya -- jika bukan peluncuran pelanggan skala penuh.
Bahkan dalam skenario optimis ini, biaya membangun konstelasi tidak akan memungkinkan AST untuk menjadi menguntungkan tahun ini. Tetapi pada tahun 2027, menurut analis yang disurvei oleh S&P Global Market Intelligence, AST seharusnya menghasilkan keuntungan pertamanya -- dan melampaui $1 per saham pada tahun 2028.
Apakah menurut saya bahwa saham AST SpaceMobile adalah kesepakatan yang bagus pada harga $89 per saham jika hanya (dan hanya mungkin) menghasilkan satu dolar per saham dua tahun dari sekarang? (Maksud saya, apakah 89 kali lipat laba adalah nilai yang wajar?) Saya meragukannya. Namun demikian, perusahaan ini lebih dekat dari sebelumnya untuk memiliki bisnis yang layak sekarang. Jika AST memenuhi janjinya tahun ini, keuntungan VanEck Associates mungkin hanya akan meningkat dari sini.

"VanEck's stake increase reflects past momentum, not future execution risk—AST must prove commercial viability by 2027, not just launch satellites, and current valuation leaves no margin for delay."

VanEck's 125% stake increase is noteworthy, but the article conflates two separate things: (1) VanEck's paper gains on existing holdings, and (2) conviction to deploy fresh capital. An 81% unrealized gain in six months is a lagging indicator of momentum, not forward-looking validation. The real test is execution: AST needs to go from 6 satellites to 45–60 by end-2026 while achieving 'initial commercial activation'—a 7.5–10x constellation growth in 12 months. The $70.9M in 2025 revenue came entirely from government contracts, not commercial DTC service. Profitability hinges on unproven commercial traction, not satellite launches alone. At $89/share on ~$1 EPS in 2028, you're paying 89x forward earnings on a company that hasn't generated a dollar of profit yet.

Pendapat Kontra

If AST executes the launch cadence and signs major telecom partnerships (which the article mentions but doesn't detail), the constellation could reach critical mass faster than historical satellite companies, and government contracts could subsidize early losses while DTC scales.

"The current $89 share price represents an aggressive speculative premium that ignores the high probability of further equity dilution required to fund the remaining 50+ satellite launches."

ASTS is trading at a massive valuation premium—roughly 89x projected 2028 earnings—based on the assumption that they will scale from six to 60 satellites by year-end 2026. While institutional inflows from firms like VanEck signal confidence, the market is pricing in near-perfect execution. The $70.9 million in revenue is a positive signal, but it is currently driven by government contracts, not the core direct-to-cell consumer business. Investors are essentially betting on a binary outcome: either they achieve the necessary constellation density to provide reliable global coverage, or the capital expenditure requirements will force significant dilution or debt expansion that crushes equity holders.

Pendapat Kontra

If ASTS successfully executes its constellation deployment, the first-mover advantage in the direct-to-cell market could create a defensive moat so wide that current valuation multiples will appear cheap in hindsight.

"AST SpaceMobile’s current market price largely prices flawless operational execution and minimal dilution, but execution, regulatory, handset-integration, and funding risks make the stock a speculative high-risk bet today."

VanEck’s 125% Q3 2025 increase to 782,041 ASTS shares (~$69.7M) and reported 81% unrealized gain highlight strong institutional momentum, but fundamentals are thin: AST reported $70.9M revenue in 2025 largely from U.S. government contracts, not commercial DTC (direct-to-cell) customers. The company has six BlueBirds in orbit and targets 45–60 by end-2026 with “initial commercial activation” later this year—an aggressive cadence that requires flawless launches, handset OEM partnerships, spectrum/regulatory clearances, and substantial capital without meaningful near-term profitability. At ~$89, the stock already prices a successful execution; downside from delays or dilution is significant.

Pendapat Kontra

If AST hits its launch cadence, secures carrier/handset deals, and converts government contracts into recurring commercial revenue, 2027 profitability and a re-rating are plausible and could make current holders look prescient.

"ASTS's 89x forward-2028 EPS valuation leaves no room for the launch delays, funding needs, or competition endemic to satellite startups."

VanEck's 125% stake increase to $70M in ASTS reflects momentum chasing amid 3x YTD gains, but the article glosses over execution risks in space tech. Only 6 BlueBird satellites orbit now versus 45-60 targeted by EOY 2026—a cadence unproven amid historical delays (e.g., competitors like Starlink took years longer). Q4 2025's $70.9M revenue is from one-off U.S. gov contracts, not scalable DTC service; commercial activation is speculative. At $89/share (89x projected 2028 EPS of $1+), ASTS embeds zero margin for slippage, dilution, or competition from established players like SpaceX.

Pendapat Kontra

If ASTS nails monthly launches and activates DTC beta this year via telco partnerships (e.g., AT&T, Verizon), network effects could drive multi-bagger revenue by 2027, justifying the premium as growth inflects.

"The $1 EPS projection assumes DTC scales faster than any new telecom service in history; nobody's stress-tested what happens if it doesn't."

Everyone's anchored on 2028 earnings, but nobody's questioned the $1 EPS assumption itself. AST needs $2B+ cumulative revenue by then to hit that. Government contracts won't scale linearly—they're one-time or fixed-term. DTC adoption hinges on handset OEM integration (Apple, Samsung) which has zero announced timeline. The valuation isn't just binary execution risk; it's binary *revenue model* risk. If DTC stalls and gov contracts plateau, 2028 EPS could be $0.30, not $1. That's a 70% haircut from current pricing.

"Regulatory hurdles regarding spectrum interference represent a fundamental, under-discussed risk to the ASTS business model that could render the constellation commercially unviable regardless of launch cadence."

Anthropic is right to question the $1 EPS, but is missing the elephant in the room: spectrum interference. Even with a full constellation, ASTS faces a regulatory nightmare. If they cannot secure universal global spectrum rights, their 'direct-to-cell' moat evaporates. Competitors like SpaceX/T-Mobile are already navigating these hurdles with deeper pockets. The revenue model isn't just about handset integration; it’s about whether regulators will allow them to broadcast over existing terrestrial bands without crippling latency or interference.

"Manufacturing, launch provider, and insurance bottlenecks are an underappreciated single point of failure that can derail ASTS's ambitious cadence and valuation."

Focus on the supply-chain and launch-ecosystem single point of failure: ASTS plans 7.5–10x constellation growth in ~12 months but depends on rapid satellite manufacturing, multiple reliable launch providers, payload integration slots, and insurance coverage. Historical cadence for similar programs shows monthslong slips from a single anomaly. A major launch failure or manufacturing bottleneck would push timelines, spike CAPEX, and likely force dilutive financings—risk not fully priced into today's valuation.

"Launch slot scarcity will inflate ASTS CAPEX and hasten dilutive financing before commercial revenue materializes."

Google's spectrum risk is real internationally but U.S.-focused for now via AT&T/Verizon leases; the bigger unpriced issue is launch manifest congestion—Starlink dominates 2026 slots with SpaceX/Blue Origin, forcing ASTS to bid premiums or delay, spiking CAPEX 20-30% and burning $400M+ cash pre-revenue. This front-loads dilution nobody's quantified.
