Pomerantz Law Firm Investigates EchoStar Corporation for Potential Securities Fraud Amid Financial Struggles
Pomerantz Law Firm's Inquiry into EchoStar Corporation
On July 22, 2025, Pomerantz LLP announced that it is investigating claims from investors of EchoStar Corporation, a company traded under NASDAQ as SATS. The focus of the investigation centers on whether EchoStar, alongside certain officers and directors, has participated in activities involving securities fraud or other unlawful business practices that could impact shareholders.
Background of the Investigation
The investigation follows a series of troubling developments within the company, predominantly sparked by a report from the Wall Street Journal dated May 12, 2025. The article detailed an impending inquiry by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), which communicated to Charlie Ergen—the chairman and co-founder of EchoStar—that the company’s compliance with federal requirements for establishing a nationwide 5G network, especially for its Boost Mobile subsidiary, would be investigated. This scrutiny came in light of EchoStar's slow progress in constructing a network capable of rivaling telecommunications giants like AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile.
As a result of this revelation, EchoStar’s stock price witnessed a significant downturn, plummeting by $4.01 (16.58%) to close at $20.18 per share on the same day. The investors' concerns grew even more serious following EchoStar's May 30 disclosure that it had opted not to make a $326 million cash interest payment on its 10.75% senior spectrum secured notes due in 2029, creating uncertainty about the company’s spectrum rights and its broader business strategy.
This decision further exacerbated investor anxiety, leading the company's stock to fall by an additional $2.44 per share (12.1%), culminating at $17.73 per share on the date of the filing. Such declines prompted discussions about the potential for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, as reported by The Wall Street Journal on June 6, 2025.
