Now, to walk you through the highlights of our first quarter, I'll turn the call over to Martin.

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

Thanks, Roger, and good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining us today. Our strong first quarter sustained the momentum we built during the second half of last year exceeded many of our expectations and reinforce our confidence for 2021 and beyond. Total revenues increased 16% in the first quarter to $42.3 million from $36.6 million in the first quarter of 2020.

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA in Q1 was $1.1 million compared to a loss of $3.7 million in the first quarter of 2020. Thanks to increasing airtime margins, strong shipments of high margin inertial nav products, and continued cost containment. We were strongly cash flow positive from operations as well. We also achieve positive results in our key business areas and continue to make progress against our strategic initiatives.

We set our second consecutive quarter for VSAT -- record quarter for VSAT shipments completed this shipment of a significant TACNAV order and made outstanding progress on our photonic chip technology, with the recent announcement of an all-new inertial product line for our IMUs. So now, I'm going to go into some of the details on each of our core markets. Q1 airtime revenue increased 11% compared to the first quarter of last year, driven primarily by a 7% increase in subscribers and almost a 7% increase in ARPU. While our media and NEWSlink business continues to be negatively affected by the shutdown of cruise ship operations worldwide, our revenues for AgilePlans, our Connectivity-as-a-Service program for the commercial market, AgilePlans revenues were up 48% compared to the first quarter of 2020.

The continued strong demand for AgilePlans is a significant indicator of the robust health of our business. Since launching AgilePlans four years ago, we've expanded our target market to include smaller commercial vessels. This long-term growth strategy is paying off as AgilePlans amounted to 84% of our commercial -- total commercial maritime VSAT shipments this quarter and 67% of total VSAT shipments. AgilePlans now represents 41% of our VSAT subscriber base.

Remember, that we forego the upfront revenue for the equipment but now, many years in we have a growing and recurring subscription revenue business. During this quarter, we have initiated new incentives to migrate customers from our original legacy network to our new global HTS network. We've seen a very positive response from these customers. Many of them are taking advantage of system upgrades and targeted customer loyalty programs for new HTS terminals.

Customers making this move enjoy more affordable data, faster speeds, and greater versatility. We saw the benefits of this effort in Q1 as revenue from the HTS network airtime was up 56% year over year due to them -- due to the mix of migrations, new customers, and expanded airtime demand from existing customers. Airtime on the HTS network also has higher margins, so every migration or new customer is worth incrementally more to the bottom line than our legacy subscribers. We expect to shed roughly $12 million in annual network operating expenses with the termination of the legacy network on December 31st this year.

This should further benefit our overall profitability. Right at the end of the quarter, we introduced the revolutionary new TracPhone V30. It's an ultra-compact Ku-band VSAT antenna designed to deliver data speeds as fast as six megabits per second down, and two megabits per second up for leisure and commercial boats. The TracPhone V30 design permits quick and easy installation and retrofits using a single power data coax cable and it runs on DC power which is a big plus for smaller boats.

The V30 is the first KVH antenna to incorporate several innovations that we plan to integrate into our future generation of terminals. These include the modem in the dome, which delivers improved signal efficiency, the commercial-grade rotary joint for uninterrupted tracking as well as high-performance stabilization, thanks to dual inertial measurement units. A streamlined belowdecks unit called the VSAT- Hub provides ethernet connections, built-in Wi-Fi, data routing, and VoIP adapter for phone calls. This belowdeck's component is only 10% of the size of the previous belowdecks unit, so it's 90% smaller.

We introduced the TracPhone V30 in late March at the West Palm Beach International Boat Show, where high consumer interest translated into stronger than anticipated demand and a backlog of orders in the weeks since. We expect the V30 to be a catalyst for new competitive migration opportunities as well. Thanks to its ultra-compact size, easy installation, and low airtime costs, we believe it's an appealing alternative to the tens of thousands of old slow and expensive FleetBroadband terminals that are still deployed around the world. We believe that the V30 will significantly strengthen our position in the commercial market for fishing vessels and offshore workboats around the world.

So in summary, it's smaller, lower power, runs our DC voltage, is dramatically easier to install, and has higher data rates. Oh, and it's also a lot more affordable. Moving onto our IoT connectivity initiatives and our KVH Watch product, we continue to expand our ecosystem of watch solution partners during Q1 and anticipate several new announcements in the coming weeks. Our solution partners now include IoT service developers, data analytics firms, technical service providers, vessel informatics companies, and more.

They are all beginning to actively promote and include KVH Watch and proposals to their existing commercial maritime customers and new prospects. In fact, we've been informed that the watch solution partner proposals that include KVH Watch already represent opportunities for more than 500 vessels. In our work with these partners, we're seeing how KVH Watch meets the needs for IoT Connectivity as a Service. We're encouraged by our growing funnel of potential watch solution partners and trials on vessels as well as by new applications like remote surveys and reefer container monitoring.

Turning to our inertial navigation market. Our military TACNAV product sales increase significantly in the first quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter of 2020. Fiber optic gyro and OEM product sales also increased by about 16% in Q1 compared to Q1 of last year. More importantly, we completed our transition to an all photonic integrated chip, IMU product line, as well as we completed the launch of the integration and production of three all-new inertial measurement units, the new P-1725, P-1750, and P-1775 IMUs, which we announced two weeks ago feature new high-performance accelerometers in addition to our latest photonic chips with our patented PIC technology.

The P-series IMU accelerometers offer greater sensitivity and accuracy and higher dynamic ranges. As a result, the P-series delivers an order of magnitude better bias instability and noise performance than our older products. These new IMUs are offered in the same proven compact IMU housing design, enable easy integration using flexible power and communication interfaces, and deliver outstanding repeatability unit to unit with increased product life. Using the same new P-1775, we also upgraded our own TACNAV 3D -- tactical navigation system.

It marks the first time we've integrated our PIC technology and new accelerometers into our military nav systems. We're pleased to offer the U.S. and allied forces the same reliability and performance benefits with a field-proven assured position navigation and timing solution. While we're thrilled to bring the P-series IMUs to market.

This is merely the latest milestone in our long-term strategic initiative to reinvent inertial technology. We expect to update our stand-alone fiber up -- fiber optic gyros with the PIC inside in the coming months. These new PIC-inside systems result from our three-year strategic initiative to revolutionize fiber optic gyro design through the invention of an integrated planar optical chip that replaces individual fiber optic components to simplify production and increased reliability. We've now accomplished that.

Our new technology also positions us to develop next-generation modular systems that we believe will offer greater flexibility, versatility, and performance. This development work is already under way. The PIC enables a future roadmap of new products that will target incremental new customers with new applications as we can expand our range of performance. But even as we look forward to those new technology developments, our P-series IMUs are already designed for the most challenging land, sea, and air applications including autonomous trucks, shuttle buses, drones, ROVs, and others.

The industries that leverage these applications include transportation, military, agriculture, construction, and mining. While the integration with driverless cars remains the largest long-term opportunity for us, we're excited by the short-term opportunities for autonomous applications that can make use of our inertial systems now. The commercialization of autonomy is farther along and more prevalent right now in higher value platforms like shuttles, trucks, construction, and agriculture. We have a funnel of opportunities with both start-ups and established players in these industries.

As an example, we recently delivered P-series IMUs to multiple-leading autonomous truck developers for evaluation and we're very confident that we have the best performing solution for these applications. So in summary, we entered the year with positive momentum and built on that in Q1, which had better than expected results. And enter Q2 with around $17 million in the backlog. In Q1, we shipped a record number of these SAP systems, an all-time record that continued the robust growth of our AgilePlans and airtime subscribers while also moving closer to the consolidation of our SATCOM customers on a single higher margin global network.

We launched an exciting new product in the V30 that exceeded our expectations for consumer and commercial demand and we have more new products in the pipeline. Our IoT watch initiatives continue to move forward with innovative and enthusiastic new solution partners. And we achieved a major milestone in our inertial technology strategy that directly supports our autonomous initiatives. And we've carried this momentum into Q2 with a record number of these ad bookings in April, the record backlog.

We've done a good job of securing the electronic components despite industry shortages and we expect to be able to deliver record units in Q2 once again. As a result. we're confident that the progress we're making now will deliver sustainable long-term value to our shareholders and other stakeholders. Now, I'd like to turn the call back to Roger to go over some of the numbers.

Roger Kuebel -- Chief Financial Officer

Thanks, Martin. As Martin mentioned earlier, our first-quarter revenue came in at $42.3 million, compared to $36.6 million recorded in the first quarter of 2020. Our consolidated gross profit margin with 37% even, as compared with 32.1% in the first quarter of last year. Revenue from our inertial navigation segment increased $4.1 million year over year, with gross margin increasing about 14.5 percentage points to 44.1%.

Revenue from our mobile connectivity segment increased $1.6 million with a gross margin of 34.2%, up around 1.5 percentage points. Products revenue for the first quarter was $18.4 million, an increase of $5.3 million, or 41% from $13.1 million in the first quarter of the prior year. By segment, product revenue and our initial navigation segment increased $5 million, or 77%. And then our mobile connectivity segment, product revenue increased by $0.3 million, or 5%.

Within our inertial navigation segment, TACNAV sales increased by $4.2 million this quarter compared to the prior year's first quarter while our FOG revenues increased by $0.9 million compared to the prior year's first quarter. The increase in mobile connectivity product sales is primarily due to a $0.4 million increase in mini-VSAT product sales. Service revenue for the first quarter was $23.9 million, an increase of $0.4 million, or 2% from $23.5 million in the first quarter of the prior year. By segment, service revenue and our mobile connectivity segment increased by $1.3 million, or 6%.

This increase was primarily due to a $2.2 million increase in mini-VSAT broadband airtime revenue. Airtime revenue grew to $21.4 million, or approximately 11% over the first quarter of last year and the related gross margin was 34%. As Martin noted, this was driven in part by a 7% increase in subscribers primarily as a result of AgilePlans with AgilePlans now representing 41% of all mini-VSAT airtime subscribers. The increase in airtime revenue was partially offset by a $0.9 million decline in our media business, which has been significantly impacted by the travel restrictions associated with COVID-19.

In our inertial navigation segment, service revenue decreased by $0.9 million primarily due to the prior completion of a project for a major U.S. defense customer, which has resulted in lower contract engineering service revenue in this quarter compared to last year. Operating expenses for the quarter were $19.3 million, down 1% from $19.4 million in the first quarter of the prior year as we continue to hold the line on operating expenses as revenue grows. At the operating income level, these changes in revenue margins and operating expenses resulted in a loss from operations of $3.6 million, a $4 million improvement, compared with the $7.6 million loss recorded in the first quarter of 2020.

Our mobile connectivity segment generated an operating loss of $0.4 million, compared with an operating loss of $2.3 million last year, while our inertial navigation segment had an operating profit of $2.1 million for the quarter, compared with an operating loss of $0.8 million last year. Our unallocated loss with $5.3 million, compared to last year's $4.5 million. For the first quarter, our net loss was $4.0 million compared with a net loss of $6.2 million recorded in the same quarter last year. On a non-GAAP basis, which excludes amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation, and other non-recurring costs such as outside legal and advisory fees, foreign exchange, transaction gains, and losses, the tax effect of those, and changes in our valuation allowance and other tax adjustments.

After those adjustments, we had a net loss of $0.9 million compared, with a net loss of $4.3 million last year. EPS for the first quarter was a net loss of $0.22 a share compared, with a net loss of $0.35 per share in the same period last year. The non-GAAP EPS loss for the first quarter was $0.05 a share, compared with a loss of $0.25 a share last year. Our adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was a positive $1.1 million compared with a negative $3.7 million in the first quarter of last year.

For a complete reconciliation of our non-GAAP measures, please refer to the earnings release that was published earlier this morning. The total backlog at the end of the first quarter was $17 million of which approximately $13.8 million is scheduled to be delivered this year. The backlog for our inertial navigation products and services at the end of March was approximately $16.3 million of which approximately $13.1 million is scheduled to be delivered during 2021, and includes $10.4 million of FOG products alone. Net cash provided by operations was a positive $5 million, compared to $2.9 million used in operations for the first quarter of last year.

Capital expenditures were $5.2 million and other cash flows were a net positive of $1.6 million, resulting in an ending cash balance of approximately $39.1 million. By 2021, we expect our capital expenditures will be in the range of $15 million to $20 million. The majority of which is driven by AgilePlans shipments. This concludes our prepared remarks and I will now turn the call over to the operator to open the line for the Q&A portion of this morning's call.

Questions & Answers:

Operator

Thank you. [Operator instructions] We have a question from Ric Prentiss of Raymond James.

Ric Prentiss -- Raymond James -- Analyst

Yes. Thanks. Good morning, everyone.

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

Good morning, Ric.

Ric Prentiss -- Raymond James -- Analyst

Hey. Roger, welcome. I want to get a sense of what have you learned in the first few months on the job that has got you excited or got you nervous?

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

Next question. Yes.

Roger Kuebel -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah. Well, I think the company has great products. We're in great markets. I've been really impressed by the team here.

I think everyone's doing a great job. I'm very happy, particularly on the finance team. As you -- when you come as the new CFO, I think you're always concerned is everything buttoned up. And I think it really is and I so I feel very good about that.

Obviously, I'm still learning a lot about the company. Two months is really not a lot of time to sort of learn. But I think there are great prospects and I think there's a great opportunity here. You know, and I think we're in a great industry.

It's not like a situation where you've got, you know, an industry that's just in a terrible, terrible place and it's tough to make any money. I think we're in and we're in good spaces, we're in good markets, and we've got really good products. So I think all those things are extremely positive. I think that the challenge that we have is sort of executing our strategy.

And as we move forward and look up various opportunities, picking the right ones to pursue.

Ric Prentiss -- Raymond James -- Analyst

And the guidance was maintained but it kind of says, assuming that early third quarter we get back to a more normal level of customer activity, we're sitting here on Cinco de Mayo, which means Q2 is almost halfway done. How should we think about the visibility of that customer returns activity by early Q3?

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

I think, overall, you know, it's looking better and better. I think that -- there have been a couple of months since we issued that statement originally and since then we've seen a great uptick in our demand for VSAT products, ARPUs are up, great response to our new product. So it seems like, you know, the markets are coming back strongly. The only part of our business that's still down significantly is the cruise business with our media.

You know, the rumor is that we'll start to pick up again in Q3. So I think, generally, everything that we thought was going to happen is on track. So you know, it looks like we should be in good shape for the second half of the year.

Ric Prentiss -- Raymond James -- Analyst

Makes sense. The industry has gone through some interesting items, M&A, JVs, Orcan got an offer to go private, ViaSat did close its RigNet deal last Friday. How are you thinking about your balance sheet and what you see as far as opportunities in the space given joint ventures, M&A, or other items?

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

Yes, I think, you know, you're mentioning things that we internally think about a lot. And I think that the industry is consolidating a lot of our competitors, have gone out of business or gone bankrupt, or been acquired, and primarily, you know, they had too much debt but we've been growing market share, we're growing revenues, we have a very strong balance sheet with positive net cash. So I think we're in a very strong position and we continue to evaluate opportunities. But you know, unlike our competitors, our entire very VSAT business was built with 100% organic growth so we never acquired a single VSAT subscriber.

So we're continuing to gain market share and we feel we feel pretty good about where we are.

Ric Prentiss -- Raymond James -- Analyst

And finally for me is, obviously, some activist shareholders are starting to take a look as well. After I saw that I did see the board refresh announcement. Can you talk us a bit about what you think the pressure points are what you can do to address some of those?

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

Yeah. So primarily, today, I'd like to talk about the Q1 earnings and the great progress we're making there. You know, we did put out a press release announcing that we have two fantastic new directors. If you haven't seen it I'd encourage everyone to take a look at that really strong background in maritime as well as in telecommunications.

And we've also put out our preliminary proxy so you can get the details on that.

Ric Prentiss -- Raymond James -- Analyst

OK. That's all I got for today. Thanks, guys.

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

OK, Ric. Thank you.

Roger Kuebel -- Chief Financial Officer

Thanks, Ric.

Operator

Our next question comes from Chris Quilty with Quilty Analytics.

Chris Quilty -- Quilty Analytics -- Analyst

Thanks. Martin, I want to follow up on a point that you made in terms of network costs and migration. I thought last quarter you had mentioned cost savings of $4 million to $5 million, and now you're saying $12 million. First of all, is that correct?

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

Yeah. So let me clarify that. So the total network costs that will be shedding around $12 million if every single one of those customers moves over to the HTS, we will be adding capacity on HTS in the order of -- let's call it half that. So the net savings, if there were no additional subscribers and if everything stays status quo, would be probably closer to $6 million than the $4 million to $5 million I mentioned previously as a saving.

But of course, you know, we're adding subscribers, we're adding bandwidth. So but that's independent of the actual migration. So when I was talking about the $12 million of our savings is come December 31st, you know, that network is going dark and those costs go to zero come January 1, and that's a $12 million difference.

Chris Quilty -- Quilty Analytics -- Analyst

Got you. And so should we expect like a big bump in Q1 of next year in margins and then they kind of go down a little bit as you continue to add capacity onto the network?

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

No. I don't expect the margins to go down. I think the margins will go up next year and then they should go up every quarter. And they don't -- we don't anticipate any step-function increases in-network cost.

It'll be incremental as subscribers grow. So we should see a nice bump in margins next year and that should translate into the bottom line.

Chris Quilty -- Quilty Analytics -- Analyst

And again, it still sorts of longer-term trending toward the 40% level from what was it 34% this quarter?

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

Yes. Yep, that's still a good internal metric that we use. And the reason for that is that as we add subscribers, the cost per subscriber goes down for us in terms of whatever the fixed costs are. But also in terms of maintaining our competitive pricing in the marketplace, we probably won't see margin higher than 40%.

We'll use that to gain additional market share within 40% as a healthy sustainable margin for us.

Chris Quilty -- Quilty Analytics -- Analyst

Understand. And sticking with the margin theme, product margins, overall, were up substantially and I guess most of that was product mix with the benefit of TACNAV sales. But more, generally, as you look across the product lines and certainly with the shift to the new PIC, should we see a sustained lift in margins across many of the product lines?

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

Well, I'll let Roger add -- answer that in detail. But at the macro level, you know, we have fixed overhead and factory costs and factory utilization is a big part of our margin calculation. What we're seeing is increased demand both in our fiber optic facility as well as in our SatCom facility, so that fixed component is going to continue to go down. Offsetting that is, you know, we've got -- we want to keep the products affordable so that we get the airtime revenue.

So you know, generally, we sell those at margins that are lower than you would for a stand-alone product because these products have a very long tail unit to go out. You know, typically we end up having a subscriber for 5 to 10 years and as you know our ARPUs are around $1,200 so -- it's $1,250, whatever it is, it's a very nice business model. So we don't focus as much on hardware margins. But having said that, we do expect them to increase generally.

Roger Kuebel -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah. And I would say I've really just started digging into this issue in earnest. I really would be premature for me to make any comments on it yet but hopefully by the next call we have, I can say more around that.

Chris Quilty -- Quilty Analytics -- Analyst

Understand. And you mentioned ARPU, I mean, typically, you haven't for at least but the last couple of years you mentioned ARPU. The fact that it was up this quarter, would you attribute that to just a lift in usage patterns or is it the type of service plans that individuals are signing up for?

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

Oh, we've seen a big increase in usage. So that's number one. Number two, we have some new rate plans that are intentionally designed to be more attractive as you go up in plans. Our HTS entry points are a little bit higher than the exiting old Arclight legacy network entry points.

So I think that helps. So as I mentioned, it was probably a 6% or7% increase in ARPU year over year. And that's number does bounce around a little bit so I I wouldn't put too much importance on that. But the point is it's going up as opposed to going down, which is a very, very healthy metric for us because we're always, in the last 10 years, we've been watching to make sure that ARPUs aren't going down as you get price pressure from competitors and things.

So we're really happy that it's, you know, it's stable and actually increasing a little bit.

Brent Bruun -- Chief Operating Officer

And as Martin said, it never does bounce around a bit. And he also made reference to our new V30, which is 37 centimeter, which typically the tip -- the average 37-centimeter customer has an ARPU l lower than the overall average. And so we see more success for that product and we hope to see a lot of success, it may have somewhat of an impact on the ARPU number that Martin just spoke about.

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

Right. That's absolutely right. And even though it will drive, you know, total airtime revenues up and --

Brent Bruun -- Chief Operating Officer

And total margin dollars up.

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

Right. Yeah, sorry.

Chris Quilty -- Quilty Analytics -- Analyst

Great. Just a question on network capacity as you shift from mini-VSAT to the HTS network. There is somewhat limited global Ku-band HTS capacity, a handful of new satellites coming online over the several years. Any concerns around capacity constraints and any plans in the future to add a Ka-band-type network?

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

Well, we don't have any plans to do Ka network today. You know, we -- as you know, we also have a C-band network that we use as well as the Ku-band network for a dual-mode product like the V11. We have Ka-band products like our UHC-7 for the satellite television market. But where we are today, we've got a lot of capacity available to us.

There are a lot of people who want to sell Ku-band capacity. So I think, we're in a pretty good spot today. Frankly, we'd love to be in a position where that becomes our major hurdle.

Chris Quilty -- Quilty Analytics -- Analyst

Great. And final question, TACNAV large orders pipeline, how is it shaping up this year?

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

It's -- I'd say, OK. We have about, I think, 70% of our annual forecast already in backlog, which is good. Still have some to book -- book and ship this year. So I think we're about where we expected to be but we're not done.

Chris Quilty -- Quilty Analytics -- Analyst

Any major program activity with the DOD or other foreign customers on track?

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

Yeah, there's a lot of different programs that we're pursuing. There's no single program that we have in our annual forecast or budget that we're counting on. So it's really a mix of smaller ones that would get us there. So you know, obviously, any large program would push us way over the top right.

Chris Quilty -- Quilty Analytics -- Analyst

Great. Thanks a lot and congrats on a good Q1 result.

Martin Kits van Heyningen -- Chief Operating Officer

Thanks, Chris.
