• GAAP operating loss was \$10.9 million compared to operating income of \$7.0 million in Q3 2019 and an operating loss of \$3.5 million in the previous quarter. The GAAP operating loss in the quarter includes \$8.2 million in expenses related to the Comtech merger and litigation and their effects.
• Non-GAAP operating loss in the quarter was \$1.9 million compared with operating income of \$7.5 million in Q3 2019 and compared to an operating loss of \$2.6 million in the previous quarter. • GAAP net loss was \$11.6 million, or loss of \$0.21 per share, compared with net income of \$6.3 million, or income of \$0.11 per diluted share in Q3 2019; GAAP net loss in the previous quarter was \$4.2 million, or loss of \$0.08 per share.
• Non-GAAP net loss was \$2.6 million, or \$0.05 per diluted share, compared with net income of \$6.8 million, or \$0.12 per diluted share, in Q3 2019, and compared with net loss of \$3.3 million, or \$0.06 per share, as reported in the prior quarter;
• Adjusted EBITDA was \$0.6 million compared with adjusted EBITDA of \$10.1 million in Q3 2019, and adjusted EBITDA of \$0.1 million in the previous quarter.
• Gilat plans to distribute \$55 million as a cash dividend, out of which \$20 million was declared and will be paid on December 2nd, 2020 and an additional \$35 million to be declared subject to court approval.
• Income from the merger termination and litigation settlement paid by Comtech will be recorded in Q4 2020.

Adi Sfadia, Gilat's Interim CEO, commented, "Albeit our third quarter results were still negatively impacted by the ongoing pandemic's effect and even more so by the litigation with Comtech, I am very optimistic as we continue to see a recovery in most of our areas of operations. During this quarter we made several significant achievements in our strategic growth engines of Cellular Backhaul, NGSO, and in our business in Peru which have resulted in significant increase in our backlog.

"Gilat continues to lead the market of Cellular Backhaul and we continue to reap the benefits of our cellular backhaul managed service strategy that allows us to enjoy larger contracts with recurring revenue. As an example, in North America we had two such major achievements this quarter. Gilat was awarded \$20 Million for a three-year managed-service contract-renewal and expansion from a Tier-1 MNO in the United States and a three-year managed service contract by Southern Linc, for coverage to remote areas as well as emergency response.

"In NGSO and VHTS, we are progressing according to schedule with our partner SES to provide our next generation innovative baseband platform for O3B mPOWER. Throughout the last year, we have been working closely with SES with the joint goal of bringing to market unparalleled customer experience in all target verticals.

"Further, we just announced that SES and Gilat expanded the O3b mPower partnership with a multi-million-dollar follow-on order for high-speed modems. The modems will deliver multi Gbps throughput, targeting high-end services over the O3b mPOWER MEO constellation.

"Lastly, in Peru, we were awarded this quarter a large contract by IPT, a consortium consisting of Telefonica and Facebook among others."

Mr. Sfadia concluded:

"I am pleased with our business accomplishments and with the healthy pipeline of significant and large opportunities and believe that these accomplishments will enable us to demonstrate a sequentially improved fourth quarter, both in terms of revenues and profitability."

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 net income, operating 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 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 costs and initial recognition of deferred tax asset with respect to carryforward losses.

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 Operating income and Adjusted EBITDA is presented in the attached summary financial statements.

Non-GAAP presentations of net income, operating 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.
