Globalstar stock rose sharply early Friday after it disclosed an expanded agreement with iPhone maker Apple.
Globalstar will deliver expanded services to Apple over a new mobile satellite services network, including a new satellite constellation, expanded ground infrastructure, and increased global MSS licensing, the satellite communications company said Friday.
Apple will prepay for certain services to be delivered, it added.
Globalstar stock soared 41% to $1.48 in premarket trading Friday following the news. Apple stock was down 1.6% after reporting earnings after Thursday's close.
By Thursday's close, Globalstar shares were down 46% so far this year as the satellite operator has struggled to turn a profit.
