EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

[MikeD-C05]

I don't see where there is any delay in the money that is owed. In fact now they have to have 80% build out instead of 75% by the end of this year. How is this going to be accomplished in less than 3 months? Where is the money coming from ?

I am sure going to miss Dish when it's gone. The Hopper can't be beat!

My understanding is the 80 percent (population based) build is essentially done.

According to Dish, still at 70% a few months ago.

I wonder if Dish should do a new streaming service that would have locals and bundle it with their 5g network?

Even if they go through bankruptcy, I'm confident Dish Network satellite service will still be around for a few more years.

From their pressers and FCC filings

By the end of this year, EchoStar's Boost Mobile Network will cover 80% of the U.S. population, an additional 30 million more Americans than EchoStar's 2023 obligation to cover 70% of the population.

I think one can safely assume that the money had been committed or spent to complete the 80 percent goal in the 100 days remaining before year end.

I meant to write in no new press releases since then along with a year and a few months ago.

I was on the Life Cycle when posting, should of paid better attention.

Most of the people here predicting bankruptcy for Dish have no idea about what they're talking about.

Wall Street investors don't pay $26 a share for a company that's soon going bankrupt. It is the highest stock price in over two years.

But the skeptics can still short the stock on Monday and make a fortune if does go under!
