The following is an excerpt from Comtech Telecommunications Corp.'s ("Comtech") fiscal 2020 second quarter earnings release issued on March 4, 2020:
In January 2020, Comtech announced its highly strategic acquisition of Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd. ("Gilat") in a cash and stock transaction, resulting in an enterprise value of approximately \$532.5 million. Each Gilat ordinary share will be converted into the right to receive consideration of \$7.18 in cash, without interest, plus 0.08425 of a share of Comtech common stock, with cash payable in lieu of fractional shares. Gilat is a worldwide leader in satellite networking technology, solutions and services, with market leading positions in the satellite ground station and in-flight connectivity solutions markets and deep expertise in operating large network infrastructures. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions including, among others, the approval of Gilat's shareholders and the expiration of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976.
The following investor presentation was posted by Comtech on its website on March 4, 2020:

Certain information in this presentation contains forward-looking but not limited to, information relating to Comtech's and Gilat's future performance and financial condition, plans and objectives of Comtech's management and Gilat's management and Comtech's and Gilat's assumptions regarding such financial condition and plans and objectives that involve certain significant known and uncertainties and other factors not under Comtech's or Gilat's control which may cause their actual results, future performance and financial condition, and achievement of plans and objectives of Comtech's management and Gilat's management to be materially different from the results, performance or other expectations implied by these forward-looking statements. Words such as "expects," "intends," "plans" "believes," "seeks," "estimates," variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. Forward-looking statements could be affected by factors including, risks associated with the ability to consummate the proposed transaction and the closing of the proposed transaction or the occurrence of any event, change or circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the risk that requisite regulatory approvals will not be obtained; the possibility that the expected synergies from the proposed transaction or other recent acquisitions will not be fully realized within the anticipated time periods; the risk that Contech's and Gilat's businesses will not be integrated successfully; of disruption from the proposed transaction or other recent acquisitions making it more difficult to maintain business and operational relationships or retain kev personnel; the risk that Comtech will be unsuccessful in implementing a tactical shift in its Government Solutions segment away from bidding on large commodity service contracts and toward pursuing contracts for its niche products with higher margins; the risks associated with Comtech's ongoing evaluation and repositioning of its location technologies solutions offering in its Commercial Solutions segment; the nature and timing of receipt of, and Comtech's performance on, new or existing orders that can cause significant fluctualions in net sales and operating results; the timing and funding of governments to gross profits on long-tern contracts; risks associated with international sales; rapid technological change; evolving industry standards; new product announcements and enhancements, including the risks associated with Contech's launch of its Heights™ ("Heights"); changing customer demands and or procurement strategies; changes in prevailing economic and politions; changes in the price of oil in global markets; changes in foreign currency exchange rates; risks associated with legal proceedings, customer claims for indemnification and other similar matters; risks associated with Cornech's obligations under its Credit Facility; risks associated with large contracts; the impact of H.R.1, also known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which was enacted in December 2017 in the U.S.; and other factors described in this and Gilat's other filings with the SEC. Neither Comtech nor Gilat undertakes any duty to update any forward-looking statements contained herein.

In order to provide investors with additional information the Company's and Gilat's financial results, this presentation contains "Non-GAAP financial measures" under the SEC. The Company's and Gilat's Adjusted EBITDA is a Non-GAAP measure that represents earnings (loss) before interest (income) and other, write-off of deferred financing costs, interest expense, amortization of stock-hased compensation of intengibles, depreciation expense, estimated contract settlement costs, settlement of intellectual property litigation plan expenses, facility exit costs and stratives analysis expenses and other. The Company's and Gilat's definition of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from the definition of EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA used by other companies and therefore may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is also a measure frequently requested by the Company's and analysts. The Company and Gilat believe that investors and analysts may use Adjusted EBITDA, along with other information in their SEC filings, in assessing the Company's or Gilat's performance and comparability of its results with other companies
The Company's and Gilat's Non-GAAP measures reflect the GAAP measures as reported, adjusted for certain items as described in Appendix III. These Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool as they exclude the financial impact of transactions necessary to conduct the Company's and Gilat's business, such as the granting of equity compensation awards, and are not intended to be an alternative to financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. These measures are adjusted as described in the reconciliation of GAAP in Appendix III, but these adjustments should not be construed as an inference that all of these adjustments or costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Investors are advised to carefully review the GAAP financial results that are disclosed in the Company's and Gilat's SEC filings
The Company has not quantitatively reconciled its fiscal 2020 Adjusted EBITDA target to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because items such as stock-based compensation, adjustments to the provision for income taxes, amortization of intangibles and interest expense, which are specific items that impact these measures, have not of the Company's control, or cannot be predicted. For example, quantification of stock-based compensation expense inputs such as the number of shares granted and market price that are not currently ascertainable. Accordingly, reconciliations to the Non-GAAP forward-looking metrics are not available effort and such unavailable reconciling items could significantly impact the Company's financial results.
