Management Commentary

Adi Sfadia, Gilat’s CEO, commented: “We are very pleased with our financial results for the fourth quarter, capping off a strong 2022. For both the quarter and the year, we achieved solid revenue growth, strong gross margins, and significant improvement in our profitability- particularly in our operating income and adjusted EBITDA.

“2022 marked key achievements in several strategic areas. We delivered SkyEdge IV, our leading ground segment for next generation satellite communication to over 20 gateways worldwide, enabling hundreds of Gbps of capacity and securing tens of millions of dollars’ worth of contract awards.

“We had a record year in Mobility with Inflight Connectivity (IFC), bringing in orders valued at tens of millions of dollars, for both our ground segment platform, modems and our transceiver product line. In the Maritime sector, we secured a new win for SkyEdge IV to enable maritime applications and are making excellent progress with SES on the cruise premium maritime service with SkyEdge IV.

“In Cellular Backhaul, we also had a record year with tens of millions of dollars in orders and in Defense, we made progress with important multi-million dollar wins and a growing pipeline.”

Mr. Sfadia concluded, “In summary, we are very pleased with our performance over the past year. We look forward to further growth on our top and bottom lines in 2023 as the satellite communications sector strongly gains additional traction. Our pipeline continues to increase and broaden as we continue to see growing demand for our products and services among new as well as existing customers. As we move through 2023, we are increasingly optimistic and as our guidance demonstrates, we expect to maintain our strong momentum ahead.

“After an intensive two-year period of helping to rebuild the company following the pandemic’s repercussions, Mr. Isaac Angel has decided to retire as Chairman of the Board, effective March 8, 2023, due to personal time constraints. I would like thank Mr. Angel for his great contribution over the past two years and to wish him success in the future.

“The Board has appointed Mr. Ami Boehm as Chairman of the Board effective upon Mr. Angel’s departure. On behalf of Gilat, I would like to welcome Mr. Boehm who has been an invaluable Board Member for the last 10 years and I am most pleased that we will now gain even more from his vast experience in directing Gilat to maximize the great potential that we see ahead.”

Non-GAAP Measures

The attached summary unaudited financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company presents non-GAAP presentations 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 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, litigation expenses, income related to trade secrets claims, restructuring and reorganization costs, merger, acquisition and related litigation expense (income), impairment of held for sale asset, other expenses, income tax effect on adjustments, one-time changes of deferred tax assets and one-time tax expense related to the release of historical tax-trapped earnings.

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 historic 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. Reconciliation between the Company’s net income (loss) and adjusted EBITDA is presented in the attached summary 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.
