SES received the final regulatory approvals for the SES-Intelsat transaction, including the US Federal Communications Commission.

On 30 April 2024, SES and Intelsat announced an agreement for SES to acquire Intelsat for a cash consideration of $3.1 billion (€2.8 billion). The transaction was subject to receipt of relevant regulatory clearances and other relevant requirements which all have now been obtained.

As a result, SES plans to close the transaction on or about Thursday, 17 July 2025. Once closing has occurred, a press release will be published to confirm that the transaction has successfully closed.
