SGBAF: 6-K · debt financing
SES priced a EUR 500 million senior unsecured Eurobond due 2031 with a 5.625% coupon, issued at 99.667% of nominal value, settling 6 October 2026 and listing on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange's Euro MTF market.
Proceeds will fund general corporate purposes and refinance the EUR 500 million Guaranteed Notes due 4 November 2027, in line with SES's deleveraging and balance-sheet strengthening objectives.
SES is rated Ba1 (stable) by Moody's and BBB- (stable) by Fitch. The refinancing extends the maturity profile without materially changing net leverage, making this a routine credit-market execution rather than a strategic shift.

SGBAF: 6-K · material agreement
SES announced an expanded strategic investment and collaboration with Elveo Mobile, the new company created through the completed merger of direct-to-device pioneers Lynk and Omnispace, positioning SES in global direct-to-device (D2D) satellite services.
Under the collaboration, SES will provide Elveo access to its expansive global space and ground infrastructure and support Elveo's go-to-market, engineering, operations and regulatory needs. SES customers will gain multi-orbit access to Elveo's LEO network combined with SES's own GEO and MEO networks, which the companies describe as the first truly multi-orbit integrated D2D satellite solution.
SES CEO Adel Al-Saleh called Elveo exactly the type of strategic partner SES sought for D2D services, while Elveo CEO Ramu Potarazu said the investment will accelerate Elveo's time to market. No financial terms, investment size, or ownership percentage were disclosed in the filing.

SES announced the successful completion of Rendez-vous 1 (RDV1), a key milestone under the European Union's IRIS2 satellite programme, confirming the programme's readiness to move into the implementation phase. The milestone provides greater visibility on the long-term scope, performance and economics of SES's MEO segment.
SES's expected capital commitment for the MEO segment is up to EUR 1.35 billion, maintaining the deployment of 18 MEO satellites and a targeted service entry in 2030. The 2026 IRIS2 investment remains within SES's previously communicated FY26 capex outlook, with no future exceptional cash proceeds earmarked for the project.
SES expects the contract's internal rate of return to meet its minimum 10% hurdle rate, with approximately 90% of MEO capacity remaining commercially exploitable across government, mobility, enterprise and cloud connectivity markets. CEO Adel Al-Saleh said RDV1 marks an important step toward delivering Europe's secure, sovereign connectivity infrastructure.
The validated baseline lowers execution uncertainty on a programme SES calls the cornerstone of its next-generation MEO strategy, though delivery runs through 2030 and depends on complex consortium arrangements with the European Commission, ESA and the SpaceRISE consortium.

SGBAF: 6-K · earnings release
SES S.A. reported H1 2026 revenue of €1.602 billion, a 72.4% increase year-over-year as reported, or a decrease of 5.0% on a like-for-like basis, alongside Adjusted EBITDA of €725 million. Despite the top-line growth boosted by the consolidation of Intelsat, the company recorded a net loss of €176 million due to higher depreciation, amortization, and financing costs. SES reiterated its full-year 2026 outlook, expecting revenue and Adjusted EBITDA to remain stable on a like-for-like and constant FX basis.
The company highlighted the U.S. FCC's Upper C-band Report and Order, which establishes a framework to clear 160 MHz of spectrum by 2030/2031 and provides for gross incentive payments of approximately $5.6 billion. SES also repaid approximately €1.186 billion in debt maturities during the period, including its €650 million senior bond, but saw its Adjusted Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio increase to 4.4 times.
Operationally, SES confirmed that O3b mPOWER satellites 11, 12, and 13 are scheduled for launch in Q3 2026, and negotiations for the IRIS2 program are in their final stages. Shareholders approved the cancellation of treasury shares, reducing the total economic shares by approximately 6% to 417 million.

SGBAF: 6-K · share repurchase
SES S.A. has announced an Extraordinary General Meeting for June 17, 2026, to approve the cancellation of 35,928,624 shares previously repurchased under its buyback program. This action will reduce the company's share capital by EUR 44.9 million, from EUR 696.5 million to EUR 651.6 million, and decrease the total share count from 557.2 million to 521.3 million shares.
The share cancellation is accretive to existing shareholders, as the cancelled shares were held by the company and will not be reissued. This reduces the float and increases the ownership percentage of remaining Class A and Class B shareholders without any cash outflow to them.
The EGM agenda also includes routine governance amendments, such as introducing indemnification provisions for directors and executive committee members, allowing hybrid meetings, and updating notice requirements for shareholder meetings.
