What Happened?

Shares of satellite communications provider Globalstar (NASDAQ: GSAT) jumped 5.4% in the morning session after the company announced it signed a launch services agreement with SpaceX. The deal is for a Falcon 9 launch to send the next set of Globalstar's satellites into orbit, which are being built by Macdonald, Dettwiler and Associates Corporation (MDA). 

This launch is part of a 2022 satellite procurement agreement with MDA and will add to Globalstar's existing second-generation satellite constellation. According to Globalstar CEO Dr. Paul Jacobs, the agreement with SpaceX is a key step in the company's plan to construct and launch its new satellites. He stated that the new satellites will improve the company's ability to deliver high-quality satellite services to its customers over the long term. The company expects the launch to occur next year.

After the initial pop the shares cooled down to $26.06, up 4.7% from previous close.
