Management Commentary

Adi Sfadia, Gilat's CEO, commented: “Gilat began 2026 with strong execution and momentum across our key growth initiatives. Our first quarter results reflected the strength of our broad solutions portfolio, continued expansion in defense and commercial markets, and improving profitability.”

Mr. Sfadia added, “During the quarter, we expanded our defense footprint into additional countries and strengthened strategic commercial relationships in India. We also saw growing interest in our virtualized, software-based network solutions following the successful demonstration conducted with Amazon AWS and SES Space & Defense. In-flight connectivity demand remains robust as next-generation aviation connectivity deployments continue to scale.

We are also experiencing increased demand for our defense portable gateway solutions, driven by the growing need for resilient, location-independent communications capabilities in contested operational environments. In parallel, we introduced a new category of high-power solid-state power amplifiers designed to replace traditional TWTAs across both defense and commercial applications.

Adoption of LEO and multi-orbit architectures continues to drive demand for electronically steered antennas, aligning well with our ESA portfolio strategy and creating additional growth opportunities for Gilat.”

Mr. Sfadia concluded, “Looking ahead, our backlog and pipeline remain strong. Based on our current visibility and execution confidence, we are reaffirming our full-year outlook for 2026. In addition, supported by our strong balance sheet and cash position, we continue to actively evaluate strategic opportunities to accelerate growth and further strengthen our market position.”

¹ We do not provide forward-looking guidance on a GAAP basis because we are unable to reasonably provide forward-looking guidance for certain financial data, such as earnout-based expenses related to recent acquisitions. As a result, we are not able to provide a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures for forward looking data without unreasonable effort.

Non-GAAP Measures

The attached unaudited summary consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). To supplement the summary consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company presents non-GAAP measurements of gross profit, operating expenses, operating income, income before taxes on income, net income, Adjusted EBITDA, and earnings per share. The adjustments to the Company’s GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors with a more complete understanding of the Company’s underlying operational results, trends, and performance. Non-GAAP financial measures mainly exclude, if and when applicable, the effect of stock-based compensation, amortization of purchased intangibles, lease incentive amortization, other non-recurring expenses, other integration expenses, other operating expenses (income), net, and the income tax effect on the relevant adjustments.

Adjusted EBITDA is presented to compare the Company’s performance to that of prior periods and evaluate the Company’s financial and operating results on a consistent basis from period to period. The Company also believes this measure, when viewed in combination with the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, provides useful information to investors to evaluate ongoing operating results and trends. Adjusted EBITDA, however, should not be considered as an alternative to operating income or net income for the period and may not be indicative of the historical operating results of the Company; nor is it meant to be predictive of potential future results. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures for other companies. A reconciliation between the Company's net income and Adjusted EBITDA is presented in the attached summary consolidated financial statements.

Non-GAAP presentations of gross profit, operating expenses, operating income, income before taxes on income, net income, Adjusted EBITDA and earnings per share should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any of the consolidated statements of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP, or as an indication of Gilat’s operating performance or liquidity.
