EchoStar Corporation Announces Interest Payments and Defaults on Certain Notes
Summary
On June 27, 2025, EchoStar Corporation and its subsidiary, DISH DBS Corporation (DDBS), announced that they would make scheduled interest payments on certain notes to avoid defaults while electing not to make payments on other notes, triggering defaults. These decisions were made in response to regulatory uncertainty from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) inquiries. EchoStar had previously withheld interest payments on the 2029 Spectrum Notes and DDBS on the DBS Notes to assess alternatives. Despite ongoing discussions with the FCC, the companies have now decided to cure the non-payment defaults by making the interest payments on the specified notes to extend the timeline for resolving the regulatory issues.
