BRAMPTON, Ont. – Shares of MDA Space Ltd. were up more than 10 per cent after it signed a contract worth $1.1 billion with satellite operator Globalstar Inc.
Shares in MDA rose $2.83 to $24.75 in early trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
Under the agreement, MDA will be the prime contractor for a low Earth orbit constellation of satellites.
It will build more than 50 satellites for Globalstar.
MDA says the definitive contract is a follow-on to a previously announced contract with what was an undisclosed customer that was announced in November 2023.
The company says about $750 million will be added to its backlog in the first quarter of its 2025 financial year in addition to $350 million that was previously added.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Feb. 10, 2025.
