London, 5 August 2015: Technavio, the independent tech-focused global research firm, has published a report on the fixed satellite service market in North America 2015-2019, which is expected to grow at a CAGR of 0.76% during the forecast period of 2014-2019.
The leasing of transponders by satellite operators to APAC and the Middle East is a significant factor that augments growth in this market. This business model involves building and launching satellites, and leasing the transponder capacity to customers on a long-term basis. Leasing usually covers the service life of satellites and generates a profit margin of above 80%. This high profit margin is expected to boost growth in this market during the forecast period.
“Owing to government regulations and market consolidation, the capacity of C-band and Ku-band is expected to decline by 3% during the forecast period. Hence, transponder utilization of existing satellites will increase significantly. The rate of transponder utilization has also been increasing because of regulations for desirable orbital slots management,” says Faisal Ghaus, Vice President of Technavio.
