Management highlighted the strong pipeline of opportunities for growth over the next several years combined with improving adjusted EBITDA margins as platforms scale and new cost- down hardware products enter the model later in 2018. We believe adjusted EBITDA margins will continue to improve over the next several quarters due to the completed deployment of JB Hunt combined with an increasing mix of cost-down versions of key hardware SKUs. We also believe ORBCOMM has a strong pipeline of opportunities to support management guidance of 350-400K net subscriber additions in 2018.”
