(1) The Company’s Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) licenses are recognized as finite-lived intangible assets and are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The licenses are subject to annual renewal upon expiration and require approval by the FCC. The Company intends to renew these licenses, and the expected future cash flows associated with the licenses assume renewal upon expiration. Management does not believe that renewal uncertainty will materially limit the Company’s ability to generate cash flows from its satellite and ground station operations.

As of March 31, 2026, the weighted-average amortization period for remaining developed technology was 7.7 years, for trade names was 0.7 years, and for patents and FCC licenses was 4.7 years. Amortization expense related to intangible assets was $0.4 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

As of March 31, 2026, the expected future amortization expense of intangible assets is as follows (in thousands):
