Telesat Holdings reported revenues of $226 million for the quarter ending June 30, the company announced Thursday.
“I am pleased with our performance in the second quarter of 2014,” company president and CEO Dan Goldberg said in a statement. “Anticipated demand for satellite services positions us well to expand our activities going forward.”
The Ottawa-based satellite services company credited the increased revenue to the introduction of the Anik G1 satellite, which hit the market last May.
