Viasat (NASDAQ: VSAT) is a global communications company that provides high-speed satellite broadband services. On May 19, 2026, Viasat is scheduled to report its quarterly earnings after the market closes. Analysts are estimating an earnings per share of $0.25 on revenue of approximately $1.20 billion for the quarter.
Leading up to this report, Viasat's share price increased by 4.4% on May 11, 2026, closing at a new 52-week high of $73.07. This represents a substantial increase from its 52-week low of $8.61. However, an analysis highlighted by GF Value suggests the stock is significantly overvalued, trading at a nearly 300% premium to its estimated intrinsic value of $18.31. This raises questions about Viasat's current stock valuation. The price-to-sales ratio is 2.10, and its debt-to-equity ratio, which measures financial leverage, stands at 1.58.
Adding to investor considerations, insiders have sold $3.7 million worth of shares in the last three months, with no reported buying activity during the same period. This type of insider trading activity can sometimes signal insiders' views on the company's current valuation.
In a separate development highlighted by GlobeNewswire, Viasat announced the appointment of Shekar Ayyar and Jinhy Yoon to its Board of Directors. The company also entered into a cooperation agreement with Carronade Capital Management. Following these changes, the board will consist of 10 directors, with 8 being independent, strengthening Viasat's corporate governance.
