You will then hear an automated message advising your hand is raised. To withdraw your question, please press star one again. Please be advised that today's conference is being recorded. I would now like to turn the conference over to your speaker for today, Natasha Vecchiarelli. Please go ahead. Good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining us today for Anterix's first quarter fiscal year 2027 investor update call. I am Natasha Vecchiarelli, Vice President of Investor Relations and Corporate Communications. Joining me today are Scott Lang, President and CEO, Chris Guttman-McCabe, Chief Regulatory and Communications Officer, and Elena Marquez, CFO. Please note that our first quarter financial results were issued yesterday afternoon and the related materials are available on our investor relations website. Today's call will begin with prepared remarks from management, followed by a question and answer session. We may also discuss our business outlook and make forward-looking statements. These statements are based on our current expectations and predictions. Actual events or results could differ materially due to risks and uncertainties described in our FCC filings, including our most recent Form 10-K and Form 10-Q. With that, I will turn the call over to Scott. Thank you, Natasha, and good morning, everyone. When we last spoke in June, we shared the progress we were seeing across the business, including increasing customer engagement, active commercial discussions, and a broader recognition of the strategic importance of licensed spectrum. Over the last two months, that activity has continued and in many cases has accelerated. First, as I am sure many of you have seen, just yesterday, SpaceX filed an ex parte letter with the FCC across three separate dockets, including ours, advocating for inclusion of a new satellite build-out deployment option. Of note, two of the three bands referenced by SpaceX are still in the process of seeking a rulemaking where ours, as you know, has been finalized. In response, yesterday, Anterix filed a letter in support of SpaceX's proposal, stating our belief that their request will enhance the optionality and the expanded use of our spectrum in the market. This filing validates what we have been saying all along. Access to low-band spectrum is extremely limited, and the demand for our nationwide 10 MHz footprint is increasing across all sectors. This is further reflected in close to a dozen spectrum-related initiatives involving wireless carriers, satellite, and space-based connectivity providers, along with the successful conclusion of the AWS-3 auction. That plays directly into the position we have built at Anterix. Our 900 MHz spectrum gives us multiple ways to create value through utility transactions, product revenue around the networks we enable, strategic opportunities, and new applications as the market evolves. The key point is this: we are not managing to one outcome. We have optionality. With a nationwide licensed low-band spectrum portfolio and increasing market recognition of what we own, that optionality puts us in a very strong position. We continue to be disciplined on how we maximize this asset. We are pursuing the opportunities where value is most compelling and where we can create the best long-term outcome for customers and shareholders. The opportunity is significant and the market is moving in our direction. Turning to our utility pipeline, the last two months have been equally active and we were pleased with the amount of interest and engagement with nearly a dozen active opportunities. Before I turn the call over to Chris, I want to recognize the remarkable team at Anterix. The progress we are seeing today is a reflection of their hard work, commitment, and execution, and I am incredibly proud of what they continue to accomplish. With that, I will turn the call over to Chris. Thanks, Scott and good morning, everyone. As Scott highlighted, we have optionality, which extends not only to how we monetize our spectrum, but also to how we advance it. Whether market-specific, regional or national in scope, we can approach our clearing objectives in a way that aligns with customer demand and the opportunities in front of us. With the FCC's expansion to the full 10 MHz broadband configuration, our focus remains on advancing our nationwide footprint, building on the 40% of counties already cleared in the 10 MHz configuration. We also have the capability to move at the pace the opportunity requires. We believe our teams can effectuate nationwide clearing of the full 10 MHz configuration in a way that fully aligns with customer deployment requirements and the opportunities we see in the market. We have consistently executed against our clearing commitments, meeting requested delivery schedules and delivering broadband availability ahead of contracted timelines for the majority of our customers. That track record demonstrates the scalability of our approach and our ability to translate spectrum availability into customer and shareholder value. The progress we are making and the growing interest we see reflect the capabilities we have built, the strength of our relationships, and the significant opportunity that remains ahead. With that, I'll turn the call over to Elena. Thank you, Chris. Anterix is entering this next phase from a position of financial strength. Our income statement has significantly improved over the last several quarters, with higher revenue and lower expenses. For the first quarter fiscal year 2027, our GAAP revenue is $2 million, and our operating expenses are $9.5 million, a level we have maintained with our disciplined cost structure. In addition, broadband license exchanges generated a gain of approximately $11 million during the quarter, further demonstrating our ability to actively manage and maximize the value of this unique asset. Turning to the balance sheet. We ended the quarter with approximately $116 million in cash and no debt. During the quarter, we received approximately $16 million in customer payments and $20 million from stock option exercises. We expect to receive approximately $10 million of additional contracted proceeds during the remainder of fiscal 2027. We also continue to invest in clearing, with approximately $7 million allocated to spectrum clearing during the quarter. Our balance sheet is one of our greatest strengths. Our scarce low-band spectrum asset, combined with our robust cash balance, positions us to pursue attractive monetization opportunities as the market continues to evolve. We remain disciplined in managing expenses and thoughtful in how we allocate capital towards activities that increase the value and commercial availability of our spectrum. Importantly as Scott discussed, the market environment surrounding spectrum transactions continues to provide greater transparency into the value of licensed spectrum ownership. We are seeing that through both our own commercial execution and broader market activity. Our executed utility spectrum transactions have averaged approximately $1.40 per MHz-POP, while the FCC's most recent AWS-3 auction averaged approximately $2.50 per MHz-POP. We believe there is a strong upside opportunity both for existing and prospective investors when compared to our current market capitalization, which implies a spectrum valuation of approximately $0.60 per MHz-POP. We are also seeing continued strategic demand for spectrum across the communications ecosystem, with activity involving companies like Amazon and Globalstar, SpaceX and EchoStar, and Rocket Lab and Iridium. While these transactions reflect different spectrum characteristics and strategic objectives, together, they provide additional market reference points for the value of licensed spectrum. In our view, the market has more evidence than ever to value our asset, and Anterix has increasing ways to realize that value. That is an important distinction. We control a scarce, licensed, low-band spectrum at a time when demand for spectrum is increasing and supply remains constrained. With no debt a strong cash position, and a disciplined cost structure, we have the flexibility to be thoughtful about timing and remain firm on pricing as we monetize this asset. That matters because the majority of the value remains ahead of us. Across our nationwide footprint, approximately 3 billion MHz-POPs, representing about 85% of our total MHz-POPs, remain available to monetize, including many of the largest and most valuable metropolitan markets. In closing, we have the balance sheet to be patient, the discipline to invest where it matters, and significant value still ahead of us to capture. With that, I will turn the call back over to Scott. Thanks, Elena. Before we open the call for questions, I want to leave you with one final thought. We believe Anterix is uniquely positioned at the intersection of two powerful forces, heightened demand for secure connectivity and a finite supply of high-quality licensed spectrum. We are excited about where we are and what lies ahead. Thank you, operator. We are ready for questions. Thank you. As a reminder, if you would like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone. You will hear an automated message advising your hand is raised. We also ask that you please wait for your name and company to be announced before proceeding with your question. One moment while we compile the Q&A roster. First question will be coming from the line of Sebastiano Petti of JPMorgan. Please go ahead. Hi, thank you for taking the question. I guess given just the amount of demand in the market and that you each touched on as well as the active customer engagements is the strategic review still actively passive or has the volume or the level of conversations internally within the company kind of increased, kind of given some of the market forces and activity out there as well? If you could also update us on where you are. I think you touched on there is engagement with, I think Scott said, a dozen active opportunities out there. Just where are you with utilities, other utilities outside of your traditional Investor-Owned Utilities and maybe helping us think about maybe gating factors there for additional opportunities, additional perhaps announcements outside your traditional cohort and maybe some of these other utility infrastructure opportunities. Thank you. Good morning, Sebastiano. Thanks for the questions. On the first one, the strategic review as you could imagine, the increasing demand and the preciousness of licensed spectrum. I would say, has increased the amount of interest with our spectrum, both from the utility side. Which leads into your second question and the first question of the strategic review, that those conversations on both of those angles are increasing in the last two months since we spoke with you. Regarding the deals, as I did mention on the prepared remarks, there is about a dozen deals. They are very active. There continues to be new deals that are coming to the table each month, and the ones that were starting two months ago when we spoke with you have continued to accelerate in their conversations. I will leave you with this last thought to give you a little bit more color on the 12. There are a very nice set of seven-digit, eight-digit, and nine-digit deals, and very well represented in each one of those categories. Thanks. Thank you, Sebastiano. Thank you. One moment for the next question, please. Next question is coming from the line of Mike Crawford of B. Riley Securities. Please go ahead. Thank you. Given that SpaceX now can be seen as a credible buyer to take everything and having over $100 billion of cash and securities on its balance sheet, have you come back to your critical infrastructure and targets and said, "Look, it is like now or never?" Because I am sure your asset would be more valuable to someone like a SpaceX to the extent that it covered more of the country and less of a patch quilt pattern. Hey, good morning, Mike. It's Scott Lang. We clearly are talking about that. We will be prepared for that. That's a rich problem to have when the time comes, and we will be ready to have it. I will leave you with this. I wake up every morning of how to maximize the shareholder value and this incredible asset that we're sitting on. I know I have the board's full support and this team's full support that we will not compromise this asset and the value of this asset for a subpar deal. Okay. Thank you. Then just on the status of this asset. So you got 40% of counties now cleared for 5x5 LTE. Right. Can you give any estimate of cost to clear everything, including what percent of that might be additional slices of spectrum you would need to acquire at the 600 MHz auction including slice per the report in order earlier this year? Elena, do you want to take that? Yeah. Mike, I will start that and then pass it over to Chris for some additional remarks. As we've commented in the past, we speak to different audiences in these calls, and we need to continue to maintain our negotiation leverage as we negotiate with our incumbents and keep our costs down and returns up. Those different audiences, of course, yourself, the analysts, our investors, incumbents, and customers. In addition, given that there's now optionality to how we may monetize this spectrum, if we continue to monetize geography by geography, the cost may be lower as they will be over several years. If there's a nationwide buyer, of course, that is looking to clear the spectrum faster, then that cost estimate may be higher, given that there may be higher level of incentives to be provided, and so on and so forth, and just the process will need to be accelerated. But regardless of the cost estimates, even with the most conservative highest estimates, we believe that there's significant upside in the gross value of our asset as compared to the current market cap. I wanted to also in addition, comment on the gross value of the asset. I mentioned in my prepared remarks that the current two most relevant benchmarks to us are our own, which is the average of all the deals that we've closed, which is the 12 deals over the last several years. That's about $1.40 per MHz-POP. The gross value of the asset of the remaining $3 billion POPs, if we use that benchmark, would put us at well over $4 billion. If we use the most current, most latest auction by the FCC, which averaged about $2.50, the gross value of our asset will be about $7.5 billion. Again, we believe there's significant upside as compared to our current market cap. Chris, did you have any additional comments on clearing? Yeah. Thanks, Elena. Mike, to your question specifically about 600, first I just want to make sure we level set with everyone on the call. Every one of our deals to date has been a significant premium to 600. So even if we were starting with the basis of having to secure spectrum from the commission's inventory at that price point, the delta between what we've sold at to date and that is significant. More specifically, the reality is the amount of spectrum we take from the commission's inventory, it's a sliding scale. Obviously, it differs from county to county. The fact of the matter is every time we clear an incumbent, we onboard their channels, which means we pay less to the FCC from a spectrum in their inventory 600 MHz price. We've been careful not to give a macro or micro level, but what we've said is, as Scott said, we're going to be a shepherd of this asset. And we're going to monetize it to our shareholders' benefit. We're very good at this clearing. We can and will be able to monetize 100% of the country. I know you and I and the team, and our team had that conversation after the last call. We are confident that 100% of the country is monetizable, and we're confident that we can do it in a way that is extremely valuable to our shareholders and to the ultimate buyer. I have to pile on. Early in my days as the CEO of this company, I called out that one of the superpowers that was immediately obvious in this company was its ability to understand spectrum, ability to clear spectrum and put that to use in the market. That continues to show up as a superpower that's only gained strength. The amount of work that Chris and his team are doing with their strategic nature of our nationwide footprint and clearing to ensure all 10 MHz-POPs are monetized has been really a pleasure to watch and to see their performance. Great. Thank you for those answers. I have one final question. Hopefully, given the clearing activity that you've already been incurring for the first half of this quarter is there any color you can give on potential GAAP broadband license gain estimate for this quarter or the remainder of this fiscal year following the just over $10 million gain recorded in the first quarter? Mike, as you know, we don't guide. I will say we do expect, I'll call them at least single digit million gains in the following quarter. All right. Thank you very much. Yeah. Perfect. Thanks, Mike. Thank you. Thank you. As a reminder, if you would like to ask a question, please press star one one on your telephone. One moment for the next question. Our next question is coming from the line of Greg Pendy of Clear Street. Please go ahead. Hi, guys. Thanks for taking my question. The first one, can you share anything. It looks like your D2D experimental licenses run through. I guess they started on May 31st. Can you share anything you've learned so far and what decision points we should be looking for going forward on those trials? Good morning, Greg. We talk about this regularly. Both Lynk and ourselves were very pleased with the results. We call it a success. It has a green check mark to it, and we are very pleased. The D2D satellite is something we've been anticipating for a long time, and obviously that is really playing out nicely for us to have that kind of preparation regarding the activity we see in the market. Chris, do you want to double click on any of that? All that, Scott is spot on, Greg. Hi, and welcome. We're excited to have the coverage. Lynk has been a great partner. It has introduced us as Scott referenced, to the D2D world. The first round of tests were incredibly successful. We're in conversations with them about how to evolve. I will say we loved and you saw a press release from us yesterday and a filing at the FCC. We loved what SpaceX introduced publicly. As Scott referenced, it's what we've been talking about internally, which is right now our licensees have two different ways to satisfy build-out. We would love to have a third way to add satellite coverage to that. What we're seeing is, across the board, you're hearing this word, optionality. We see optionality in how to monetize, we see optionality in how to clear, and we love the idea of optionality of how to satisfy build-out. David Goldman and the team at SpaceX are very good at what they do, and we love the idea that they put into the public discourse the idea of using satellite coverage to satisfy build-out. That's very helpful. Can you just let us know, with your active conversations on the utilities, whether it's justified or not, as you sell them on a private and secure connection. Is there any concerns that they might have about adding a satellite layer that conflicts with the exclusivity that utility customers think, they're paying for or believe? We have not. I have not. I think if there was any concerns on this, we would hear about it. I have not heard any concerns on that. In fact, I think initially, if anything they see the optionality as very strong for their cases of the conversations that we've had, Greg. Okay. Very helpful. Just one final one. Given the strong cash position that you ended at, it looks like there's $226 million left on the buyback authorization. How should we be thinking about that, given that it expires in September? I guess late September. Yeah. Thanks, Greg. Just as much as we talk about optionality and maximizing the value of the spectrum, we think about capital allocation almost daily, and we always think of where we should put every dollar to ensure that we maximize the shareholder returns, while we also balance. Of course, the financial health of the company. Having a strong balance sheet currently allows us to make investments and to ensure that we are unlocking the value of the monetizable spectrum, and also allows us to be patient and to ensure that we utilize the best opportunities to monetize it. Share buybacks will continue being in our toolkit. I wouldn't be surprised if we renew the program in September and when the time is right, that is always something that we can utilize. That's very helpful. Thanks a lot. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. One moment for the next question, please. Our next question is coming from the line of George Sutton of Craig-Hallum Capital Group. Please go ahead. Hey, guys. This is Logan on for George. First one from me. I wondered- Hey, Logan. if you could just give us an update on TowerX and CatalyX. I am curious, as we think about those dozen opportunities that you talked about, maybe just give us a sense like what portion of those include conversations about those offerings. And maybe just help us understand how close you feel like you are getting to having tangible deals there. Hey, Logan. Good to hear from you, and pass our hello to George. The role that those launches have given us have played out exactly as we were hoping, to eliminate friction to be on spectrum. We work with utilities to help understand the broader roadmap of actually getting it deployed and having their business executives get use of it. How commercially that plays out regarding specific products or the premium that we're seeing and the friction that we're reducing in the market is still early days, but it is making a big impact on the acceleration of the deals, the value that we're getting based on the deals, and the interest in new conversations that is opening up for us to have broader conversation within the utilities and other sectors for that matter. Commercially of how that plays out is still early days and we're shaping that, but it is certainly playing a nice impact positively for us. Got it. Just one other from me. You mentioned the AWS-3 results. I'm curious, as we look at the pricing in certain areas where you guys might also be in negotiations for spectrum deals, do those results have any impact on negotiations or pricing talks on your end? Yes, Logan, this is Elena. Absolutely. Any public data and benchmarks certainly educate our pricing conversations with our customers, given that they're public benchmarks. Absolutely, it's been having a great positive effect on our pricing strategy and conversations. Okay. Thanks, guys. Thank you. Thank you. There are no more questions in the queue, and I would like to now turn the call back over to Scott Lang, CEO for closing remarks. Please go ahead. I want to just start with, once again recognizing this team here at Anterix and the hard work and dedication that I see every single day, literally seven days a week, almost 24 hours a day. I want to thank all of our investors. I want to thank all of the analysts for dialing in today and the thoughtful questions. It's a real honor to be the CEO of this company and understanding what we do every day and the value and the kind of great company that we are creating. I want to thank all of you for joining, and we will look forward to following up and staying in touch. Have a great day. This concludes today's programming. Thank you so much for joining. You may now disconnect.
