Echostar Annual Report Year Ended December 31, 2012 March 20, 2013
NASDAQ: SATS 100 Inverness Terrace East Englewood, CO 80112 303.706.4000 | echostar.com EchoStar Annual Report Year Ended December 31, 2012 March 20, 2013 Dear EchoStar Corporation Shareholders; 2012 was a very busy year for EchoStar. One of the most exciting accomplishments for 2012 was the addition of two new satellites to our growing fleet through the successful launches of EchoStar XVI and EchoStar XVII, bringing our total number of owned, leased and managed spacecraft to twenty-two. EchoStar operates the world’s fourth largest commercial geostationary satellite fleet and we continue to solidify our position as a premier global leader in satellite communications and operations. EchoStar ended 2012 with revenue of $3.1 billion, a growth of 13% over 2011. EBITDA in 2012 was $794 million, a growth of 64% over 2011. We generated a healthy $508 million of cash from operating activities in 2012 as a result primarily of the strong net income in 2012 and ended the year with a strong balance sheet with $1.5 billion of cash and marketable securities. EchoStar reached two very important long-term North America goals in 2012 with the market implementation of the HughesNet Gen4 service and the roll-out of the Hopper Whole Home DVR solution for DISH. Both solutions are garnering high praise and rapid adoption by consumers, a glowing testament to the capabilities and ingenuity of the EchoStar team. Additional notable accomplishments for 2012 include the very successful introduction of two new Slingbox retail products, several large enterprise contract renewals and new customers for Hughes data network services around the globe, and above-forecast sales of set-top-box products and video services to our established operator customers. -

2014 Annual Report
Annual Report NASDAQ: SATS Year Ended December 31, 2014 100 Inverness Terrace East Englewood, CO 80112 303.706.4000 | echostar.com March 20, 2015 Dear EchoStar Corporation Shareholders, 2014 was another outstanding year for EchoStar. From our financial performance to our continued progress in the satellite, broadband and video distribution platforms, we continue to demonstrate why we are a leader in the global provisioning of satellite operations and video-delivery solutions. EchoStar ended the 2014 fiscal year very strong, and we continue to meet our financial goals as a corporation. Revenues were $3.45 billion, increasing 5% over 2013, and EBITDA was $903 million—a 39% increase over the fiscal year 2013. Net Income attributable to EchoStar shareholders increased from $5 million in 2013 to $165 million in 2014. We continue to have a very strong balance sheet, with approximately $1.7 billion of cash and marketable securities, giving us ample resources to continue to pursue our strategic objectives. EchoStar has evolved into one of the world’s largest products-and-services companies for satellite-based broadcast and broadband networking. Our vertical integration gives us a unique position in our current markets and also in other markets that we continue to enter. Each of our four divisions plays a role in this strategy, and as we go into the future we will make investments to increase our market share in all of these segments: x We now own, lease and/or manage 24 satellites and continue to add to this fleet. In addition to the Ku and Ka satellites that we have in our fleet, we now have five satellites under construction, including a satellite for mobility services in Europe. -
2013 Annual Report
Annual Report Year Ended December 31, 2013 September 18, 2014 Dear EchoStar Corporation Shareholders, In 2013, we made tremendous progress and, yet again, proved why we are a leader in the satellite and telecommunications industry. Our unique combination of knowledge and experience from end-to-end satellite operations, video delivery and broadcast technologies, and data networks allows us to deliver a unique and impressive suite of products and services to support our continued success. EchoStar ended the 2013 fiscal year with a solid performance. Our total revenue was $3.3 billion compared to $3.1 billion in 2012, representing a 6.7% increase. EBITDA was $650 million in 2013, compared to $794 million in 2012, and included $139 million higher investment gains and $46 million in dividends that were not repeated in 2013. We ended the year with $1.6 billion in cash and marketable securities, which gives us the resources necessary to pursue strategic opportunities to position ourselves for global growth. We continue to deliver on our commitments to customers, partners, employees, and shareholders. EchoStar had a stellar 2013 performance partially due to the continued success of the Hopper whole-home DVR product line, including the launch of the award-winning Hopper with Sling. In addition, we achieved record numbers in growth for our HughesNet subscribers, which totaled more than 800,000 by the end of 2013. Hughes broadened its suite of services by launching HughesNet Voice, an integrated VoIP option, that rivals the triple play offered by competitors. In December 2013, we acquired Solaris Mobile, a company based in Ireland and licensed by the European Union, to provide mobile satellite services and complementary ground component services covering the entire European Union. -

Based on orbital data in ESA’s DISCOS database and on orbital data provided by KIAM the situation near the geostationary ring (here defined as orbits with mean motion between 0.9 and 1.1 revolutions per day, eccentricity smaller than 0.2 and inclination below 70 deg) is analysed. From 1234 objects for which orbital data are available, 406 are controlled inside their longitude slots, 629 are drifting above, below or through GEO, 172 are in a libration orbit and 18 whose status could not be determined. Furthermore, there are 74 uncontrolled objects without orbital data (of which 66 have not been cata- logued). Thus the total number of known objects in the geostationary region is 1307 . During 2011 at least sixteen spacecraft reached end-of-life. Thirteen of them were reorbited following the IADC recommendations, one of those below the GEO protected region. Three spacecraft were reorbited too low. We identified one spacecraft that seems to be abandoned or could not make any reorbiting manouevre at all in 2009 and is now librating inside the geostationary ring. -

ANNUAL REPORT Year Ended December 31, 2009 March 25, 2010 Dear EchoStar Corporation Shareholders: After two full years as an independent, publicly-traded company, our focus remains on developing digital equipment and satellite service solutions for satellite, cable TV, IPTV, terrestrial, and telecommunications operators in the United States and in countries around the world. We’ve also embarked down a path to deliver IP-based video through multiple delivery methods, including satellite and Internet. Our primary business emanates from designing and selling digital set-top boxes, satellite solutions, and international end-to-end video delivery solutions for satellite, cable and IPTV providers. To that end, in 2009, we have appointed Michael T. Dugan, a satellite TV industry veteran, to lead EchoStar as CEO and President. Our EchoStar Technologies subsidiary continues to design and distribute award-winning digital set-top boxes for direct-to-home satellite TV providers in the U.S., Canada and Europe. Our engineering team is integrating Slingbox® placeshifting technology into digital set-top boxes, which enables subscribers to view the video content from their home television on a computer, mobile phone, or other Sling-enabled device. We have already begun scheduling lab trials with cable and telecommunications operators for digital set-top boxes and various products that incorporate Slingbox placeshifting technology. Additionally, our sales team is focused on selling these products to retailers and operators. We unveiled several new Slingbox products at the 2010 Consumer Electronics Show (CES), and we were recognized with two CES Innovations Awards. Our SlingGuide™ service is now being deployed to DISH Network subscribers in the United States and Bell TV subscribers in Canada.
