Iridium Communications (ISIN US46269C1027) is being assessed against a Hold rating that Weiss Ratings reissued on October 6, 2026, according to MarketBeat. The stock was trading at EUR 39.00 at Lang & Schwarz on October 20, 2026 at 8:44 p.m. CEST.

Nasdaq price and yearly range
Iridium's primary listing is on Nasdaq under ticker IRDM. The stock was last at USD 43.87 on October 20, 2026 at 2:50 p.m. ET. Its 52-week range was USD 15.65 to USD 57.18, placing the latest Nasdaq price between the two extremes.
The euro quotation at Lang & Schwarz provides the German investor view, while the Nasdaq quote supplies the home-market context. The two prices are shown separately because they use different currencies and venues.
What does the rating mean?
MarketBeat reported a Hold consensus based on eight analysts and an average target of USD 41.20. Against the USD 43.87 Nasdaq price, that target is 6.08 percent below the stock price. The rating therefore points to a measured stance rather than a fresh upgrade or downgrade.
Balance sheet carries the risk
Iridium reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of USD 245.73 million, up 8.00 percent from USD 226.94 million in the year-ago quarter, according to Iridium. Net debt stood at USD 2.1 billion at September 30, 2026, while net leverage was 4.2 times trailing twelve-month operational EBITDA.
Stock stays below the yearly high
For investors, the key reference points are the February reporting date, the Hold assessment and the gap between the USD 41.20 average target and the USD 43.87 Nasdaq price. Iridium's satellite network also supports recurring service revenue across commercial, government and aviation customers.
At Lang & Schwarz, Iridium Communications stock was trading at EUR 39.00 on October 20, 2026 at 8:44 p.m. CEST. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of Iridium Communications stock.
