EchoStar shares&nbsp;rose nearly 9% in Monday’s extended session as traders reacted to a report of the potential sale of wireless spectrum to telecom giant Verizon Communications, Inc. (VZ).After settling Monday’s regular session up 0.27% at $73.65,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SATS">EcoStar stock</a> climbed 8.49% after-hours, while&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/VZ">Verizon’s stock</a> edged up merely 0.09% in the extended session.A Bloomberg&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-09-29/verizon-is-in-talks-to-purchase-echostar-wireless-spectrum">report</a>, citing people familiar with the matter, stated that Verizon was in talks with EchoStar, a satellite TV and wireless services provider, to purchase&nbsp;its AWS-3 licenses, which are crucial for carrying 5G wireless signals.&nbsp;EchoStar had already sold some of the airwaves to Verizon’s peer AT&amp;T (T) and Elon Musk’s SpaceX, in a bid to resolve a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) probe over whether it has met its 5G buildout obligations and spectrum use.Citing regulatory filings by EchoStar, the report said the AWS-3 spectrum has a carrying amount of $9.8 billion. The company has sold wireless spectrum to AT&amp;T and SpaceX at prices well over the carrying value, it added. While AT&amp;T paid $23 billion in cash for EchoStar’s low- and mid-band spectrum licenses, SpaceX expended $17 billion.EchoStar, which acquired a significant chunk of wireless spectrum with the intention of becoming a fourth major carrier in the U.S., has now toned down its ambitions.
