PETAH TIKVA, Israel, May 18, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd. (NASDAQ:GILT) (TASE:GILT), a
worldwide leader in satellite networking technology, solutions and services, today reported its results for the first quarter ended
March 31, 2016.
Key Financial Updates:
- Revenue for Q1 2016 was $52.7 million compared to $45.2 million in comparable period of 2015, an increase of 17%.
- EBITDA for Q1 2016 increased to $0.5 million compared to $0.2 million in comparable period of 2015.
- Reiterated management objectives for 2016: continued growth with revenues between $290 and $310 million and EBITDA between
$18 and $24 million.
On a GAAP basis, operating loss was $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2016 as compared to an operating loss of $4.0 million
in the comparable quarter of 2015.
On a non-GAAP basis, operating loss was $1.4 million in the first quarter of 2016 as compared to an operating loss of $2.1
million in the comparable quarter of 2015.
On a GAAP basis, loss for the quarter was $4.0 million or $0.09 per diluted share compared to a loss of $5.6 million or $0.13
per diluted share in the same quarter of 2015.
On a non-GAAP basis, the loss for the quarter was $2.4 million or $0.05 per diluted share compared to a loss of $3.7 million or

"I am pleased to report a good first quarter, which was in-line with our plans,” said Yona Ovadia, CEO of Gilat. “Our first
quarter results are a strong testament to the validity of our strategy. Our one-platform/multi-application X-Architecture
continued to gain wide acceptance as the most advanced HTS ground equipment technology. In the first quarter, Eutelsat chose our
X-Architecture platform to connect to RSCC's Express AMU1/EUTELSAT 36C satellite for the delivery of broadband services to users
throughout western Russia. SES and Facebook also selected the platform for Facebook’s initiative to deliver broadband Internet
access throughout Africa.
“In the Mobility market, our In-Flight Connectivity strategy gained momentum when Gogo, the global leader in providing broadband
connectivity solutions and wireless entertainment to the aviation industry, selected our next-generation airborne IP network modem
system.
“Our positive first quarter results were achieved despite the economic slowdown witnessed in the Latin American and CIS markets.
We have more than compensated for these difficult market conditions with significant achievements in our strategic focus areas,”
added Mr. Ovadia.
“Based on our solid first quarter business progress and results, our backlog and the prospects we continue to see, we reiterate
our management objectives for FY2016 of a revenue target of $290 to $310 million and an EBITDA target of $18 to $24 million,"
concluded Mr. Ovadia.

Notes:
(1) The attached summary financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (GAAP). The attached summary financial statements are unaudited. To supplement the consolidated financial statements
presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company presents Gilat's EBITDA before the impact of non-cash share-based payment charges,
depreciation and amortization, other income and other costs related to acquisition transactions. Non-GAAP presentations of net
income, operating income, EBITDA and earnings per share are provided to enhance the understanding of the Company's historical
financial performance and comparability between periods.
(2) Operating income before depreciation, amortization, non-cash stock option expenses as per ASC 718 (formerly SFAS 123(R)) and
other costs related to acquisition transactions ('EBITDA') is presented because it is a measure commonly used and is presented
solely in order to improve the understanding of the Company's operating results and to provide further perspective on these
results. EBITDA, however, should not be considered as an alternative to operating income or net income for the period as an
indicator of the operating performance of the Company.
Similarly, EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity.
EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles and may not be comparable to other
similarly titled measures for other companies. EBITDA may not be indicative of the historic operating results of the Company; nor
is it meant to be predictive of potential future results. Reconciliation between the Company's Operating income and EBITDA is
presented in the attached summary financial statements.
