Comtech Announces Financial Results for First Quarter of Fiscal 2026

CHANDLER, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--December 11, 2025-- Comtech Telecommunications Corp. (NASDAQ: CMTL) (“Comtech” or the “Company”), a global communications technology leader, today reported financial results for its first quarter ended October 31, 2025.

Ken Traub, Chairman, President and CEO, stated:

“We are pleased to report the continued positive momentum in our business, achieving our third consecutive quarter of strong positive operating cash inflows and $51 million of total liquidity. Comtech has built a much stronger financial position. We continue to be focused and selective in our product, marketing and sales initiatives which yielded another quarter of sequential improvement in our gross margin percentage as well as continued cash flow generation. Net bookings for the quarter of $102 million and our backlog of $663 million do not yet include the majority of funding related to the long-term contract extension worth over $130 million that we secured in early November with a domestic Tier 1 mobile network operator. Our continued progress in the first quarter was accomplished notwithstanding the short-term impacts of the U.S. government shutdown, which was resolved in November. We are particularly gratified to see the positive reaction from our current and prospective employees, vendors and customers to the recent significant improvements in Comtech’s financial position.”

First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Consolidated Results Commentary

Consolidated net sales were $111.0 million, a decrease of 4.1% compared to the $115.8 million reported in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and a decrease of 14.8% sequentially from the immediately preceding quarter. As anticipated, net sales in the Company’s Allerium and Satellite and Space Communications (“S&S”) segments were lower compared to the prior year period and the immediately preceding quarter as it streamlined its product lines and focused on strategic, higher margin opportunities while optimizing cash flow. Compared to the prior year period, Allerium reported lower net sales of call handling solutions, offset in part by higher net sales of NG-911 services. Net sales in the S&S segment were lower compared to the prior year period due to lower net sales of troposcatter solutions, timing of orders, the recent U.S. government shutdown, as well as the decision to phase out and eliminate certain low margin revenues.

Consolidated gross profit was $36.8 million, or 33.1% of consolidated net sales, a substantial improvement from the $14.5 million, or 12.5% of consolidated net sales, reported in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Consolidated gross profit declined sequentially from the $40.7 million in the immediately preceding quarter, while gross profit as a percent of net sales increased from 31.2%. The year-over-year improvement is primarily due to an $11.4 million non-cash charge in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 related to the write down of certain inventories as a result of restructuring activities within the S&S segment, enhanced operational efficiency, product mix improvements resulting from streamlined product lines focused on strategic, higher margin products, reduced cost structures and improved terms with customers and vendors. The sequential improvement in the Company’s quarterly gross margin percentage for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 builds upon the improving quarterly trend achieved throughout fiscal 2025.

Consolidated operating loss was $2.8 million, compared to an operating loss of $129.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and $1.9 million of operating income in the immediately preceding quarter. The improvement from the first quarter of fiscal 2025 is primarily the result of a $79.6 million non-cash charge in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 related to the impairment of goodwill as a result of restructuring activities within the S&S segment, higher gross profit as described above, lower selling, general and administrative expenses and lower amortization of intangibles, offset in part by higher research and development expenses. Operating loss in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 reflects $5.0 million of amortization of intangibles, $2.4 million of restructuring costs (of which $0.8 million and $1.6 million related to the S&S and Unallocated segments, respectively), $1.1 million of amortization of stock-based compensation and $0.8 million of CEO transition costs. Excluding such items, consolidated operating income for this quarter would have been $6.6 million, or 5.9% of net sales.

Consolidated net loss attributable to common stockholders was $19.8 million, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $155.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and net loss attributable to common stockholders of $11.6 million in the immediately preceding quarter. In addition to those items described above, and as more fully discussed in the Company’s SEC filings, net loss attributable to common stockholders in the current period included $3.9 million of net dividends related to the Company’s Convertible Preferred Stock. The first quarter of fiscal 2025 included $58.6 million of net dividends related to Convertible Preferred Stock, offset in part by a $51.2 million gain related to the exchange of its Series B-1 for Series B-2 Convertible Preferred Stock on October 17, 2024.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure) was $9.6 million, compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $30.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and Adjusted EBITDA of $13.3 million in the immediately preceding quarter. The year-over-year improvement in Adjusted EBITDA reflects higher gross profit (both in dollars and as percentage of consolidated net sales) and lower selling, general and administrative expenses, offset in part by higher research and development expenses, as described above.

Consolidated net bookings were $101.9 million, a decrease of 20.3% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and an increase of 8.0% compared to the immediately preceding quarter. The book-to-bill ratio in the first quarter was 0.92x, compared to 1.10x in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 0.72x in the immediately preceding quarter. As part of the Company’s transformation plan, it has refocused and prioritized its sales efforts to target higher margin opportunities in which it has greater differentiation and to optimize cash flow.

Consolidated backlog was $663.0 million as of October 31, 2025, compared to $811.0 million as of October 31, 2024, and $672.1 million as of July 31, 2025. Revenue visibility, measured as the sum of funded backlog and the total unfunded value of certain multi-year contracts, was approximately $1.1 billion at the end of the first quarter. New bookings and backlog do not yet include the full value of the multi-year contract extension worth over $130 million awarded to Comtech by a domestic Tier 1 mobile network operator in November 2025.

GAAP cash flows from operations were $8.1 million, an improvement from the first quarter of fiscal 2025 cash outflows from operations of $21.8 million, and an anticipated decrease from the immediately preceding quarter's cash flows from operations of $11.4 million. This is Comtech’s third sequential quarter of positive operating cash flow. The significant improvement from the first quarter of fiscal 2025 reflects the improved operating income, improved working capital management due primarily to improved accountability and process disciplines, as well as the timing of and progress toward completion on contracts accounted for over time, including related shipments, billings and collections.

Operating cash flows in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 include aggregate net cash payments for interest and taxes of $4.9 million, compared to $6.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Operating cash flows for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 and 2025 also include $2.2 million and $5.8 million, respectively, in aggregate payments for restructuring costs, including severance, proxy solicitation costs, CEO transition costs and strategic emerging technology costs for next-generation satellite technology.

Satellite and Space Communications (“S&S”) Segment First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Commentary

S&S net sales were $55.1 million, a decrease of 6.5% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 20.2% sequentially from the immediately preceding quarter. As anticipated, net sales for the quarter reflected lower net sales of troposcatter solutions, including the discontinuance of multiple low-margin product lines. The S&S segment continues to focus on capitalizing on its differentiated capabilities, addressing performance, thoughtfully evaluating the product portfolio and implementing initiatives to improve margins and cash flow generation.

S&S operating income was $3.2 million, compared to an operating loss of $118.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and operating income of $3.3 million in the immediately preceding quarter. S&S operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 was impacted by $0.8 million of restructuring costs, compared to $2.4 million and $0.7 million, respectively, in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and immediately preceding quarter. The improvement in Satellite and Space Communications segment operating income primarily reflects higher gross profit (both in dollars and as a percentage of related segment net sales), lower selling, general and administrative expenses and lower amortization of intangibles, offset in part by higher research and development expenses. The prior year period included a $79.6 million non-cash charge related to the impairment of goodwill within the S&S segment.

S&S Adjusted EBITDA was $6.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $32.5 million in the prior year period and $6.3 million in the immediately preceding quarter. Compared to the prior year period, Adjusted EBITDA reflects higher gross profit (both in dollars and as a percentage of related segment net sales) and lower selling, general and administrative expenses, offset in part by higher research and development expenses. The sequential improvement in Adjusted EBITDA from 9.1% of related segment net sales to 10.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 primarily reflects lower selling, general and administrative expenses in the more recent period.

S&S book-to-bill ratio was 0.77x. This ratio compares to 0.99x in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 0.65x in the immediately preceding quarter. The reduction in bookings reflects, in part, a more focused product positioning and sales approach.

Key S&S contract awards during the first quarter of fiscal 2026 included:

• over $7.8 million in orders from an international reseller of troposcatter family of systems (“FoS”), including Modular Transportable Transmission Systems (“MTTS”) and Multi-Path Radios (“MPRs”) intended for use in multiple international government end-user applications;
• approximately $4.0 million in aggregate orders related to satellite ground infrastructure solutions, including production units, intended for use in a new LEO satellite constellation network being deployed;
• an approximate $2.5 million hardware related order awarded by a leading aerospace, aviation and defense company based in the U.S.;
• an award, valued in excess of $2.0 million, calling for the supply of MTTS units to the U.S. Army;
• approximately $2.0 million in aggregate orders for satellite ground infrastructure solutions intended for use in support of a MEO satellite constellation;
• over $1.8 million in orders related to providing spare and repair services to various customers of amplifier solutions;
• over $1.8 million of incremental orders related to the supply of initial production units to a prime contractor in support of two next-generation satellite modem contracts, which the Company expects will be moving into full production during fiscal 2026;
• an order, valued in excess of $1.4 million, related to supply of multi-band amplifiers; and
• incremental funding of approximately $1.3 million for continued, ongoing training and support of complex cybersecurity operations for U.S. government customers.

In September 2025, as part of the Company’s cost savings plans, it decided to migrate certain production capabilities and operational functions to its manufacturing operations in Chandler, Arizona. Such initiative is expected to be completed in fiscal 2026, result in increased manufacturing efficiencies, allow S&S to further optimize its facilities footprint and result in recurring annualized cost savings of approximately $3.0 million.

Allerium Segment First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Commentary

Allerium net sales were $55.9 million, a decrease of 1.8% and 8.8%, respectively, compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and the immediately preceding quarter. Compared to the prior year period, Allerium experienced lower net sales of call handling solutions, offset in part by higher net sales of NG-911 services.

Allerium operating income was $5.4 million, compared to $5.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and $7.1 million in the immediately preceding quarter. The year-over-year change in Allerium’s operating income primarily reflects higher gross profit (both in dollars and as a percentage of related segment net sales), offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses.

Allerium’s Adjusted EBITDA was $11.3 million, compared to $11.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and $13.7 million in the immediately preceding quarter. Compared to the prior year period, Adjusted EBITDA reflects those factors discussed above. Sequentially, the change reflects the timing of Allerium’s performance on certain contracts received in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, as well as Allerium’s performance on certain projects nearing completion in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025.

Allerium’s book-to-bill ratio in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 was 1.06x, compared to 1.22x in the prior year period and 0.81x in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025.

With strategic wins in the U.S., Canada and Australia, the Company believes its position as a trusted leader in 911, NG-911 and public safety applications positions Allerium increasingly well when it comes to delivering similarly sophisticated solutions for other types of emergencies. New emergency requesting devices, such as “wearables,” vehicles, smart speakers and AI capable cameras, and new delivery methods, such as through satellite networks, are expected to drive innovation and growth within the public safety market over time.

Key Allerium contract awards during the first quarter of fiscal 2026 included:

• approximately $27.0 million of initial funding toward a multi-year contract extension ultimately awarded to Allerium in November 2025 and valued in excess of $130.0 million; this contract was awarded by Allerium’s largest customer, a leading telecommunications company in the U.S. known for its network reliability and security, is for scalable services, and reinforces Allerium’s commitment to helping carriers and public safety organizations modernize critical infrastructure and optimize service reliability with confidence;
• over $15.0 million of incremental, multi-year funding related to the continued deployment of NG-911 solutions for a state in the southwestern region of the U.S.; and
• various funded orders from a top tier U.S. mobile network operator, aggregating $5.8 million and primarily for maintenance and new feature releases associated with previously deployed wireless location-based solutions.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To provide investors with additional information regarding the Company’s financial results, this release contains “Non-GAAP financial measures” under the rules of the SEC. The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA is a Non-GAAP measure that represents earnings (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization of intangibles, impairment of long-lived assets, including goodwill, amortization of cost to fulfill assets, amortization of stock-based compensation, CEO transition costs, change in fair value of warrants and derivatives, proxy solicitation costs, restructuring costs, strategic emerging technology costs (for next-generation satellite technology), and write-off of deferred financing costs and debt discounts, and in the recent past, acquisition plan expenses, change in fair value of the convertible preferred stock purchase option liability, COVID-19 related costs, facility exit costs, strategic alternatives expenses and other and loss on business divestiture. These items, while periodically affecting its results, may vary significantly from period to period and may have a disproportionate effect in a given period, thereby affecting the comparability of results. Although closely aligned, the Company’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA is different than EBITDA (as such term is defined in its Credit Facility and Subordinated Credit Facility) utilized for financial covenant calculations and also 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, as well as adjusted operating income (loss), net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders and net income (loss) per diluted common share, as presented in the tables, are non-GAAP measures. These Non-GAAP measures are frequently requested by investors and analysts. The Company believes that investors and analysts may use these Non-GAAP measures along with other information contained in its SEC filings, including GAAP measures, in assessing its performance and comparability of its results with other companies. The Company’s Non-GAAP measures reflect the GAAP measures as reported, adjusted for certain items as described herein and also excludes the effects of the Company’s outstanding convertible preferred stock. These Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool as they exclude the financial impact of transactions necessary to conduct its 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 to Non-GAAP measures in the tables presented herein, 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 SEC filings. As the Company has not provided future Non-GAAP financial guidance or targets, there is no need to reconcile its business outlook to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Furthermore, even if guidance or targets had been provided, 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 yet occurred, are out of the Company’s control, or cannot be predicted at this time. For example, quantification of stock-based compensation expense requires 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 would not be available without unreasonable effort and such unavailable reconciling items could significantly impact the Company’s financial results.

Reconciliations of GAAP consolidated results to the corresponding Non-GAAP measures are shown in the tables below (numbers and per share amounts in the tables may not foot due to rounding). Non-GAAP results reflect Non-GAAP provisions for (benefits from) income taxes based on year-to-date results, as adjusted for the Non-GAAP reconciling items included in the tables below. The Company evaluates its Non-GAAP effective income tax rate on an ongoing basis, and it can change from time to time. The Company’s Non-GAAP effective income tax rate can differ materially from its GAAP effective income tax rate.
