Stock Track01-30

AST SpaceMobile, Inc. (ASTS) stock surged 5.93% in pre-market trading on Thursday, following a major breakthrough for the company's satellite technology and plans by Vodafone, one of Europe's largest telecom operators, to roll out its satellite-based service across the continent.

Vodafone announced that it had successfully conducted the world's first satellite video call using a standard smartphone, facilitated by ASTS's BlueBird satellites. This demonstration validated ASTS's ability to provide high-speed satellite connectivity to regular mobile devices, with transmission speeds of up to 120 megabits per second.

Following this success, Vodafone revealed plans to launch ASTS's satellite-based service across Europe, starting later in 2025 and continuing into 2026. This development represents a significant commercial opportunity for ASTS, as it could potentially gain access to millions of Vodafone's customers across the continent.
