New and ongoing challenges relating to current supply chain constraints and impacts from inflation,constraints, including for satellite ground station and troposcatter components, and impacts from inflation and any new or increased tariffs on imports and other trade restrictions, could adversely impact our revenue, gross margins and financial results.

Reworded

The effects of inflation and labor challenges have caused, and we expect will continue to cause further delays in the supply chain. Despite our attempts to mitigate the impact on our business, constrained supply chain conditions have and are expected to continue to adversely impact our costs of goods sold and may impact the timing and amount of revenue we realize. DuringIn fiscalour 2024,recent past, we experienced disruptions in our supply chain relating to later-than-expected delivery of certain key components from several suppliers that adversely impacted our revenue in fiscal 2024.revenues. In addition, the ongoing supply chain issues have affected the quality of the components we receive.receive, Certain parts receivedwhich in fiscalsome 2024cases didcaused such components to not meet our quality specifications and we were unable to use them.specifications.

Added

In addition, the U.S. recently implemented further changes to trade policies, including adding new or modifying existing tariffs on imports, in some cases significantly. The impact of these tariffs is subject to a number of factors, including the effective date and duration of such tariffs, changes in the amount, scope and nature of the tariffs in the future, any retaliatory responses to such actions that the target countries may take and any mitigating actions that may become available. Although some of these tariffs have been paused or reduced, there is significant uncertainty as trade negotiations are ongoing and outcomes are unpredictable. Tariffs and any retaliatory actions, if implemented, could significantly increase the cost of our products and result in lower demand for our products, delivery delays, and terminations of orders by customers. The uncertainty in the trade environment may also contribute to broader macroeconomic and financial market weakness and volatility, such as inflationary pressures affecting interest rates and volatility in the stock market affecting the price of our common stock. While we continue to evaluate the potential impact of the new tariffs on our business, given the volatility and uncertainty regarding the scope and duration of such tariffs and other aspects of U.S. and foreign government trade policies, their ultimate impact on our operations and financial results remains uncertain.

Reworded

We obtain certain components and subsystems from a single source or a limited number of sources. Some of our single source suppliers, particularly those that provide satellite ground station and troposcatter components, have in the past reported to us that they are having disruptions in their respective supply chains. These single source components, which include items such as RF filters and custom fiber connectors are in limited supply with very long lead times. In some cases, we have now depleted our stock inventory and we are on waiting lists to obtain additional components. In order to ship certain items duringin fiscalthe 2024,future, we must obtain additional components to produce certain finished goods. We continue to seek new suppliers and inventory elsewhere. In light of current challenges in the supply chain, we may not be able to qualify alternate suppliers for our components.components timely, or at all.

Heading into our fiscal 2025,2026, we have a significant portion of our targetedanticipated revenues in ourfunded backlog. However, if shipments from our backlog are delayeddelayed, we are unable to perform as expected on orders accounted for over time, or we are unable to obtain expected orders or components, we may not achieve our business outlookoutlook. will prove to be inaccurate. TheseThe aforementioned supply chain constraints, and their related challenges could result inin, among other things, future shortages, increased material costs or use of cash, engineering design changes, late delivery penalties and delays in new product introductions, each of which could adversely impact our revenue, gross margins and financial results. There can be no assurance that the impacts of any or all the aforementioned conditions will not continue, or worsen, in the future.

Reworded

If global economic business and political conditions deteriorate as compared to the current environmentenvironment, it could have a material adverse impact on our business outlook and our business, operating results and financial condition.

Reworded

Many of the end-markets for our products and services may be significantly impacted forby other issues that result in adverse global economic conditions. For example, many of our international end-customers are in emerging and developing countries that are subject to sweeping economic and political changes. Many governments around the world are under pressure to reduce their spending. From time to time, global oil and natural gas prices have been volatile and have significantly impaired the ability of certain of our government customers in the oil and gas producing regions of the world to invest in telecommunications products and infrastructure. Additionally, from time to time, the relative strength of the U.S. dollar against many international currencies has negatively impacted the purchasing power for many of our international end-customers because most of our sales are denominated in U.S. dollars. We generate significant sales from many emerging and developing countries and any such reduced purchasing power of our customers could adversely impact our sales and backlog.

Reworded

If credit in financial markets outside of the U.S. remains difficult to obtain, our international customers and suppliers may find it difficult to obtain financing, which could result in a decrease inin, or cancellation ofof, orders for our products and increased transaction costs (e.g., insurance, performance bonds). Volatility of financing conditions may cause our customers to be reluctant to spend funds required to purchase our solutions and could cause their projects to be postponed or canceled. In addition, if an adverse economic environment and lack of financing results in insolvencies for our customers, it would adversely impact the recoverability of our accounts receivable and/or inventories which would, in turn, adversely impact our results of operations.

Reworded

We design and manufacture our over-the-horizon microwave equipment and systems in Florida, where major hurricanes have occurred in the past, and amplifiers in Santa Clara, California, an area close to major earthquake fault lines. Additionally, certain of our Terrestrial and Wireless NetworksAllerium segment activities are conducted in Washington State near a fault line. We maintain operations in Maryland near a U.S. Navy facility which may be more prone to a terrorist attack. Our operations in these and other locations (such as in our high-volume technology manufacturing center located in Arizona), could be subject to natural disasters or other significant disruptions, including hurricanes, tornadoes, typhoons, tsunamis, floods, earthquakes, fires, water shortages, other extreme weather conditions, medical epidemics, acts of terrorism, power shortages and blackouts, telecommunications failures, and other natural and man-made disasters or disruptions.

Reworded

We cannot be sure that our systems will operate appropriately if we experience hardware or software failure,failures, intentional disruptions of service by third parties, an act of God or an act of war. A failure in our systems could cause delays in transmitting data, and as a result we may lose customers or face litigation that could involve material costs and distract management from operating our business.

Ongoing instability and conflicts in global markets, including in Ukraine, the UkraineGaza and Eastern Europe,Strip, Israel, Lebanon, theand Gazaother Stripcountries andin the Middle East and Asia, and the attending possibility of economic sanctions, have created and may continue to create economic and political disruption that could adversely impact our revenue, gross margins and financial results.

Reworded

The military conflict between Russia and Ukraine has impacted our sales pipeline and continues to have repercussions for our business. Although sales into Russia represented approximately 1% of our consolidated net sales in fiscal 2024 and 2023, consolidated net sales into Russia in fiscal 2025 and beyond had been expected to grow. As a result of the economic sanctions against Russia, however, we have stopped accepting new orders in Russia and initiated a windwound down ofour Russian operations in fiscal 2024. We intend to repatriate proceeds from former operations in Russia as permitted by law; however, our ability to do so may be negatively impacted by continuing sanctions against Russia, as well as by the laws within Russia.

Reworded

As a result of this conflict, from time to time oversince theFebruary past two years,2023, we believe that certain customers (including the U.S. government, Ukraine and neighboring countries) paused procurement and deployment of satellite and troposcatter communication systems, and instead began purchasing war-fighting equipment. Accordingly, it has become difficult to predict the timing or dollar amount of our contract awards in the region. Additionally, funding for opportunities with other customers that we expected to book and ship has also been shifted to other programs and/or temporarily delayed as a result of changes in defense spending priorities.

Removed

Accordingly, it has become difficult to predict the timing or dollar amount of our contract awards in the region. For example, we anticipated being awarded several opportunities to provide wireless communication systems (including troposcatter systems) to Ukraine and neighboring countries for a variety of both defense and communications uses. However, while we continue to track such opportunities and believe that they will ultimately be awarded to us, such opportunities continue to be delayed. Additionally, funding for opportunities with other customers that we expected to book and ship has also been shifted to other programs and/or temporarily delayed as a result of changes in defense spending priorities.

Removed

Prior to this conflict, we maintained a small group of employees who supported certain UHP-branded satellite communications products. In fiscal 2024, we continued to expand our operations and shift certain commercial software development and support activities to Canada. However, as we are currently in an environment where software engineering talent is already in high demand and commands a premium, we expect to incur additional annual expenses in connection with this personnel shift for our UHP products. We may not be able to timely ramp up our operations in Canada or elsewhere on a sufficient scale to support anticipated growth of our UHP products, which could adversely impact future revenues, gross margins and operations.

Reworded

Our sales to government customers are highly dependent on the U.S. defense budget, which in turn is driven by an annual appropriation by Congress. These appropriations rarely align with the performance period of our contracts—; for instance, most of our government contracts are only partially funded at inception. DoD budgets are driven by factors that are outside our control (such as economic conditions, administration policy shifts within the Executive branch and geopolitical events). Any one or combination of these factors may adversely impact our operations, resulting in a decline of sales and operating income.

Strategic Transformation Plan Risks

Reworded

We may fail to realize all of the anticipated benefits of our strategic and operational initiatives, including the strategic alternatives for our Terrestrial and Wireless Networks segment and further portfolio-shaping opportunities, or those benefits may take longer to realize than expected.

Some of the anticipated benefits may not occur for a significant period of time. In addition, we may retain certain liabilities or obligations related to ourany Terrestrial and Wireless Networks segment or otherdisposed businesses that may arise under contract or law, or may have difficulties enforcing our rights, contractual or otherwise, against the buyer. The focusoutcome onof becomingthese a pure-play satellite and space communications companyinitiatives and the related transactions may not enhance long-term stockholder value as anticipated. Further, our strategictransformation transformationplan could result in near termnear-term restructuring charges and a material impairment of our goodwill and/or intangible assets, among other things.

Reworded

Many of these factors will be outside of our control and any one of them could result in increased costs, including restructuring charges, decreases in the amount of expected revenues and diversion of management’s time and energy,attention, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the process of such strategictransformation transformations,plan, including divesting assets, carries an inherent risk of market fluctuations and economic uncertainties that could undermine the value we expect to realize.

Reworded

Our transformation strategyplan may require a substantial portion of the time and attention of our management team, which may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations, and we may face increased levels of employee attrition.

Reworded

Our management team has spent, and continues to spend, a significant amount of time and effort focusing on our transformation strategy.plan. This diversion of attention may have an adverse effect on the conduct of our business, and, as a result, on our financial condition and results of operations, particularly if the time it takes to complete our transformation strategyplan is protracted. During the pendency of the transformation strategy,plan, our employees may face considerable distraction and uncertaintyuncertainty, and we may experience increased levels of employee attrition. A loss of key personnel or material erosion of employee morale could have a materially adverse effect on our ability to meet customer expectations, thereby adversely affecting our business and results of operations. The failure to retain or attract members of our management team and other key personnel could impair our ability to execute our strategy and implement operational initiatives, thereby having a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Likewise, we could experience losses of customers who may be concerned about our ongoing long-term viability.

Reworded

Our current cash and liquidity projections raisemay substantialnot doubt about our ability to continuematerialize as a going concern.anticipated.

Added

In fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, we reported operating losses of $139.1 million, $79.9 million and $14.7 million, respectively, and net cash used in operating activities of $8.3 million, $54.5 million and $4.4 million, respectively. At July 31, 2025 and November 7, 2025 (the date closest to the issuance date), total outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility were $133.9 million and $135.0 million, respectively. Of such amounts, $17.6 million was drawn on the Revolver Loan at both dates.

Added

At July 31, 2025, October 31, 2025 and November 7, 2025, our available sources of liquidity totaled $47.0 million, $51.0 million and $50.3 million, respectively, which includes qualified cash and cash equivalents of $37.4 million, $41.4 million and $40.7 million, respectively, and the remaining available portion of the Revolver Loan of $9.6 million as of each such date.

Added

As of the issuance date, we expect cash and cash equivalents and cash flows from both operating and financing activities to be our principal sources of liquidity. We also believe these sources of liquidity will be sufficient to fund our operating and cash commitments for investing and financing activities over the next year beyond the issuance date.

Added

During fiscal 2025 and through the issuance date, we have taken the following actions, and implemented the following plans, to improve our operational and financial performance, enhance our liquidity and financial condition and ability to meet our financial covenants contained in our credit facilities:

Added

•Engaged in portfolio-shaping opportunities to enhance profitability, efficiency and focus, including the elimination of legacy solutions that were not contributing meaningfully to net sales and or gross profits;

Added

•Prioritized efforts to complete low or no margin non-recurring engineering contracts in order to accelerate our migration to higher volume and higher margin manufacturing related orders with improved cash conversion cycles;

Added

•Developed and launched new products and services around differentiated technology and solutions;

Removed

Pursuant to the requirements of ASC Topic 205-40, "Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern," we are required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. This evaluation does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of our plans that have not been fully implemented or are not within our control as of the date the audited Consolidated Financial Statements are issued. When substantial doubt exists, we are required to evaluate whether the mitigating effect of our plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of our plans, however, is only considered if both (i) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the Consolidated Financial Statements are issued, and (ii) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the Consolidated Financial Statements are issued.

Removed

As of the date these financial statements were issued (the "issuance date"), we evaluated whether the following adverse conditions, when considered in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern over the next twelve months beyond the issuance date.

Removed

Over the past three fiscal years, we incurred operating losses of $79.9 million, $14.7 million and $33.8 million in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. In addition, over the past three fiscal years, net cash used in operating activities was $54.5 million and $4.4 million in fiscal 2024 and 2023, respectively, and net cash provided by operating activities was $2.0 million in fiscal 2022. Our ability to meet future anticipated liquidity needs over the next year beyond the issuance date will largely depend on our ability to generate positive cash inflows from operations, maximize our borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility, as discussed further below, and or secure other sources of outside capital. While we believe we will be able to generate sufficient positive cash inflows, maximize our borrowing capacity and secure outside capital, there can be no assurance our plans will be successfully implemented and, as such, we may be unable to continue as a going concern over the next year beyond the issuance date.

Removed

As discussed further in "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Note (8) - Credit Facility" included in "Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data," included in this Form 10-K (which discussion is incorporated herein by reference), on June 17, 2024, we entered into a $222.0 million credit facility with a new syndicate of lenders, which replaced our prior credit facility. As further discussed below, we subsequently amended the credit facility on October 17, 2024 (the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility consists of a committed $162.0 million term loan (“Term Loan”) and $60.0 million revolver loan (“Revolver Loan”). At July 31, 2024 and October 25, 2024 (the date closest to the issuance date), total outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility were $194.2 million and $199.1 million, respectively. At both July 31, 2024 and October 25, 2024, $32.5 million was drawn on the Revolver Loan. As of the issuance date, our available sources of liquidity approximate $28.7 million, consisting solely of qualified cash and cash equivalents. That is, our available sources of liquidity do not include the remaining portion of the committed Revolver Loan due to the lenders' consent right, discussed below, to any borrowings that exceed $32.5 million.

Removed

The Credit Facility, among other things, requires compliance with new restrictive and financial covenants, including: a maximum allowable Net Leverage Ratio of 3.25x for the fiscal quarter ending January 31, 2025; a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.20x for the fiscal quarter ending January 31, 2025; a minimum Average Liquidity requirement at each quarter end of $20.0 million; and a minimum EBITDA of $35.0 million for the fiscal quarter ending October 31, 2025. Such ratios adjust under the Credit Facility in future periods.

Removed

The Credit Facility was amended on October 17, 2024 to waive certain defaults or events of default, including in connection with our Net Leverage Ratio and Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio covenants as of July 31, 2024. The amendment also provides for, among other things: (i) increases the interest rate margins applicable to the loans; (ii) modifies certain financial and collateral reporting requirements; (iii) provides a lender consent right with respect to $27.5 million of Revolver Loan borrowings above $32.5 million; (iv) permits the incurrence of $25.0 million of senior unsecured subordinated debt (as described below); (v) amends the maturity date to the earlier of (x) July 31, 2028 or (y) 90 days prior to the earliest date that the debt under the Subordinated Credit Agreement (as defined below) becomes due and payable; and (vi) suspends financial covenant testing through the end of our fiscal quarter ending January 31, 2025.

Removed

In addition, we entered into a Subordinated Credit Agreement with the existing holders of our Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Subordinated Credit Agreement”) on October 17, 2024, which provides a subordinated unsecured term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $25.0 million (the “Subordinated Credit Facility”). The proceeds of the Subordinated Credit Facility: (i) cured our default on certain financial covenants under the Credit Facility, as discussed above; (ii) provides additional liquidity to us; and (iii) funds our general working capital needs, including support of our strategic transformation initiatives, as discussed below.

Removed

Our ability to meet our current obligations as they become due may be impacted by our ability to remain compliant with the financial covenants required by the Credit Facility, or to obtain future waivers or amendments from the lenders in the event compliance is not maintained. While we believe we will be able to secure such waivers or amendments, as needed, there can be no assurance such waivers or amendments will be secured or on terms that are acceptable to us. If we are unable to secure waivers or amendments, the lenders may declare an event of default, which would cause an immediate acceleration and repayment of all outstanding principal, interest and fees due under our Credit Facility. Absent our ability to repay the forgoing amounts upon the declaration of an event of default, the lenders may exercise their rights and remedies under the Credit Facility, which may include, among others, a seizure of substantially all of our assets and/or the liquidation of our operations. If an event of default occurs that allows the lenders to exercise these rights and remedies over the next year beyond the issuance date, we will be unable to continue as a going concern.

Removed

As of the issuance date, our plans to address our ability to continue as a going concern include, among other things:

Removed

Added

•Through new leadership and improved accountability and process disciplines implemented throughout the organization, reduced our investments in working capital (e.g., accounts receivable and inventory), as well as capital expenditures; and

Added

•Through a series of capital injections, aggregating $100.0 million in the form of subordinated debt, and amendments to our credit facilities: (i) significantly reduced senior debt and related cash interest payments due under our Credit Facility; (ii) increased the available portion of our Revolver Loan; (iii) deferred the scheduled repayment of a portion of the Term Loan and the scheduled payment of certain fees due under the Credit Facility; (iv) suspended testing of our Net Leverage Ratio, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and Minimum EBITDA covenants under our credit facilities until January 31, 2027; and (v) reduced the minimum quarterly average liquidity requirement under our credit facilities.

Added

Our ability to meet future anticipated liquidity needs over the next year beyond the issuance date will largely depend on our ability to execute on our operational strategy, generate positive cash inflows from operations, maximize our borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility and or secure outside capital.

Added

Based on the foregoing, over the next year beyond the issuance date, we believe that we will: (i) be able to generate sufficient positive cash inflows and maximize our borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility to continue as a going concern, and (ii) comply with the covenants contained in our credit facilities. However, our ability to do so may also be affected by general economic, financial and other factors which are beyond our control. As such, there can be no assurances that our plans will be successful or that our projections will materialize.

In addition, our gross profit is affected by a variety of factors, includingincluding, among other things, the mix of products, systems and services sold, production efficiencies, provisions for excess and obsolete inventories, estimates of warranty expense, price competition and general economic conditions. Our gross profit may also be affected by the impact of any cumulative adjustments to contracts that are accounted for over time. In particular ourOur contracts with the U.S. government (or prime contractors to the U.S. government) can be terminated for convenience by it at any time and orders are subject to unpredictable funding, deployment and technology decisions by theour U.S. government.customers. Some of these contracts are indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity ("IDIQ") contracts and, as such, the U.S. government is not obligated to purchase any equipment or services under these contracts.

Revenue Recognition. In accordance with FASB ASC 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), we record revenue in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for goods or services promised to customers. See "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Note (1)(d) - Revenue Recognition" included in "Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,"Data (which discussion is incorporated herein by reference), and "Part II - Item 9A. Controls and Procedures," included in this Form 10-K, for further information.

Added

A cost-to-cost measure of progress is principally used to account for contracts in our Satellite and Space Communications segment and, to a lesser extent, certain location-based and messaging infrastructure contracts in our public safety and location technologies product line within our Allerium segment.

Added

For over time contracts using a cost-to-cost measure of progress, we have an estimate at completion ("EAC") process in which management reviews the progress and execution of our performance obligations and calculates an estimated contract profit based on total estimated contract revenue and cost. Since certain contracts extend over a long period of time, the impact of revisions in revenue and/or cost estimates during the progress of work may impact current period earnings through a cumulative adjustment. Additionally, if the EAC process indicates a loss, a provision is made for the total anticipated loss in the period that it becomes evident. Contract revenue and cost estimates for significant contracts are generally reviewed and reassessed at least quarterly.

Added

We perform on a broad range of contracts whose revenue is recognized over time, including the development of complex and advanced customized solutions which often require the application of new technologies. Cost estimates on fixed-price development contracts and early stage/low-rate production contracts are inherently more uncertain as to future events than on mature, full-rate production contracts. As a result, for fixed-price development contracts and early stage/low-rate production contracts, there is typically more variability in those estimates and greater financial risk associated with unanticipated cost growth. Risks include, but are not limited to: technical engineering risks related to the underlying technologies being developed; schedule risks related to completing performance obligations timely; and customer risks related to changing specifications.

Added

The estimation of contract revenue, cost and progress toward completion requires the use of judgment, which can be affected by any number of factors over time and which may cause our actual results to differ materially from those estimates, as facts and circumstances change or become known to us. Changes in estimates can occur for a variety of reasons including, but not limited to: changes in the availability, productivity and cost of labor; the effect of change orders on contract scope; the resolution of engineering risks at lower or higher costs than anticipated; the availability and cost of material components and subcontracts, as well as the performance of our subcontractors or suppliers; the impact of unanticipated changes in our customers' schedules; and changes in indirect cost allocations, such as overhead.

Impairment of GoodwillLong-Lived andAssets, OtherIncluding Intangible Assets.Goodwill. As of July 31, 2024,2025, total goodwill recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheet aggregated $284.2$204.6 million (of which $110.1$30.5 million relates to our Satellite and Space Communications segment and $174.1 million relates to our Terrestrial and Wireless NetworksAllerium segment). Additionally, as of July 31, 2024,2025, net intangibles recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheet aggregated $194.8$173.1 million (of which $48.4$41.2 million relates to our Satellite and Space Communications segment and $146.4$131.9 million relates to our Terrestrial and Wireless NetworksAllerium segment). For purposes of reviewing impairment and the recoverability of goodwill and other intangible assets, our segments each constitute a reporting unit and we must make various assumptions in determining their estimated fair values.

For purposes of reviewing impairment and the recoverability of goodwill and other intangible assets, our Satellite and Space Communications and Terrestrial and Wireless Networks segments each constitute a reporting unit and we must make various assumptions in determining their estimated fair values. During our fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, we recorded a $64.5 million non-cash impairment charge in our Satellite and Space Communications segment related to long-lived assets, including goodwill. See "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Note (14) - Goodwill" and "Note (15) - Intangible Assets" included in "Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" (which discussion is incorporated herein by reference), included in this Form 10-K, for further information. Also, as announced on October 17, 2024, we are executing a strategy to transform Comtech into a pure-play satellite and space communications company. Ongoing and future actions supporting our transformation strategy include: an exploration of strategic alternatives for our Terrestrial and Wireless Networks segment, which is well underway; the pursuit of further portfolio-shaping opportunities to enhance profitability, efficiency and focus; and the implementation of additional operational initiatives to both achieve profitable results from operations as well as to align our go-forward cost structure with a pure-play focus on satellite and space communications. Such activities could result in a material impairment of our goodwill and/or intangible assets. See "Part I - Item 1. Business - Strategic Transformation" for more information.

For tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, we account for unrecognized tax benefits using a “more-likely-than-not” threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement. We may be challenged upon review by the applicable taxing authority and positions taken by us may not be sustained. We recognize all or a portion of the benefit of income tax positions in our GAAP results only when we have made a determination that it is "more-likely-than-not" that the tax position will be sustained upon examination, based upon the technical merits of the position and other factors. For tax positions that are determined as "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained upon examination, the tax benefit recognized is the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. We recognize potential interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, we consider all positive and negative evidence, including past financial performance, timing and judgments about future taxable income and tax planning strategies. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce net deferred tax assets to the amount "more-likely-than-not" expected to be realized. We continuously evaluate additional facts representing positive and negative evidence in determining our ability to realize these deferred tax assets. Significant judgment is required in determining income tax provisions and tax positions. The ultimate outcome of tax exposures and risks involves significant uncertainties. If actual outcomes differ materially from these estimates, they could have a material impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

Capitalized Engineering Costs. We generally expense all research and development costs. Research and development expenses include payroll, employee benefits, stock-based compensation expense, and other personnel-related expenses associated with product development. Research and development expenses also include third-party development and programming costs. Costs incurred internally in researching and developing software to be sold are charged to expense until technological feasibility has been established for the software. Judgment is required in determining when technological feasibility of a product is established. Technological feasibility for our advanced communication software solutions is generally reached after all high-risk development issues have been resolved through coding and testing. Generally, this occurs shortly before the products are released to customers and when we are able to validate the marketability of such product. Once technological feasibility is established, all software costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. To date, costs capitalized related to internallysoftware developed softwarefor the purpose of selling to bethird soldparties werewas not material, but could increase in the future.

WeAs capitalizeit certain costs relatedrelates to software developed for the purpose of internal-use software (e.g., hosted "SaaS" applications within our Terrestrial and Wireless NetworksAllerium segment), costs capitalized primarily consistingconsist of direct labor and third-party vendor costs associated with creating the software. Software development projects generally include three stages: the preliminary project stage (all costs are expensed as incurred), the application development stage (certain costs are capitalized and certain costs are expensed as incurred) and the post-implementation/operation stage (all costs are expensed as incurred). Costs capitalized in the application development stage include costs related to the design and implementation of the selected software components, software build and configuration infrastructure, and software interfaces. Capitalization of costs requires judgment in determining when a project has reached the application development stage, the proportion of time spent in the application development stage, and the period over which we expect to benefit from the use of that software. Once the software is placed in service, these costs are amortized on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software. During fiscal 2025 and 2024, internal-use software costs capitalized were $3.9 million and $3.8 million.million, respectively. Capitalized internal use software costs are amortized once the software is placed in service on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software, which is generally three years.

Provisions for Excess and Obsolete Inventory. We record a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based on historical and projected usage trends. Other factors may also influence our provision, including decisions to restructure or exit a product line, technological change and new product development. These factors could result in a change in the amount of excess and obsolete inventory on hand. Additionally, our estimates of future product demand may prove to be inaccurate, in which case we may have understated or overstated the provision required for excess and obsolete inventory. In the future, if we determine that our inventory was overvalued, we would be required to recognize such costs in our financial statements at the time of such determination. Any such charge could be material to our results of operations and financial condition. See "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Note (1)(f) - Inventories" included in "Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,"Data (which discussion is incorporated herein by reference), and "Part II - Item 9A.

We monitor billing events, collections and payments from our customers and maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon our historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that we have identified. In light of ongoing tight credit market conditions and high interest rates, we continue to see requests from our customers for higher credit limits and longer payment terms. We have, on a limited basis, approved certain customer requests. Also, more recently, in fiscal 2024, we experiencedcan afrom time to time experience significant increaseincreases in the overall level of contract assets (i.e., unbilled receivables) related to large, long-term contracts with certain U.S. governmentgovernment, domestic and international customers. We continue tocontinuously monitor our accounts receivable credit portfolio. To-date, there has been no material changes in our credit portfolio as a result of the challenging business conditions.

AlthoughExcept as discussed in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Note (4) - Accounts Receivable included in Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data (which discussion is incorporated herein by reference), included in this Form 10-K, our overall credit losses have historically been within the allowances we established,established. However, we may not be able to accurately predict our future credit loss experience, given the current poor business environment.experience. Measurement of credit losses requires consideration of historical loss experience, including the need to adjust for changing business conditions, and judgments about the probable effects of relevant observable data, including present economic conditions such as delinquency rates and the financial health of specific customers. Future changes to the estimated allowance for doubtful accounts could be material to our results of operations and financial condition.

Added

Derivative Instruments and Warrant Liabilities. We evaluate our financial instruments, including our Credit Facility, Subordinated Credit Facility, Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to issue our common stock pursuant to the terms of such instruments, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. Such evaluation considers a qualitative and quantitative assessment of whether the host instrument is more debt or equity-like, and if embedded derivatives should be bifurcated from the host instrument and/or combined for accounting purposes. For derivatives that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative is initially recorded at its estimated fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in its estimated fair value reported in our Consolidated Financial Statements. To estimate such fair values, with the assistance of a third party valuation expert, we primarily use Monte Carlo simulation models, on a with and without basis, or Black-Scholes option pricing models, each adjusted for instrument-specific terms. Due to the nature of our derivative instruments and warrant liabilities, we must use Level 3 inputs for estimating fair value, which are unobservable inputs developed using the best available information under the circumstances. Level 3 inputs are supported by little or no market activity, are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities and reflect our assumptions related to how market participants would use similar inputs to price the asset or liability. Accordingly, our estimates and assumptions could prove to be inaccurate. Also, changes in such estimates and assumptions from period to period could be material to our results of operations and financial condition. See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Note (1)(j) - Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments included in Part II - Item 8.

Fiscal 20242025 HighlightsResults and Business Outlook for Fiscal 2025

Added

•Consolidated net sales of $499.5 million, compared to $540.4 million in fiscal 2024, reflecting: (a) the completion of certain legacy contracts to deliver next-generation troposcatter terminals to the U.S. Marine Corps and Army; (b) the divestiture of our high power solid state amplifiers product line in November 2023; (c) the wind down of our steerable antennas product line in the U.K.; and (d) the discontinuation of certain low-margin orders in our Satellite and Space Communications segment in order to focus on opportunities through which we can provide a more differentiated solution at higher margins; offset, in part, by growth in our: (x) Allerium segment, driven by our next-generation 911 emergency communications solutions; and (y) Satellite and Space Communications satellite ground infrastructure solutions, reflecting the ongoing shift back to higher volume production contracts as certain legacy non-recurring engineering contracts draw nearer to completion;

Added

•Gross margin was 25.6%, compared to 29.1% in fiscal 2024, reflecting, in addition to product mix changes, an $11.4 million non-cash charge in our first quarter of fiscal 2025 related to the write down of certain inventories as a result of restructuring activities within our Satellite and Space Communications segment; our quarterly gross profit, both in dollars and as a percentage of consolidated net sales, improved sequentially throughout fiscal 2025, ultimately achieving a 31.2% gross profit percentage in our fourth quarter;

Added

•GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders was $204.3 million and included, among other things: a $79.6 million non-cash impairment charge related to long-lived assets, including goodwill; $48.9 million of net non-cash adjustments and paid-in-kind dividends related to our Convertible Preferred Stock; $27.9 million in amortization and write-offs of deferred financing costs, debt discount, accreted interest and interest paid-in-kind related to our senior and subordinated credit facilities; $21.7 million of intangible asset amortization; a $16.1 million non-cash charge to fully reserve for an unbilled receivable contract asset; $15.6 million of restructuring costs; the $11.4 million non-cash inventory charge discussed above; $2.7 million of proxy solicitation costs; and $2.1 million of CEO transition costs; offset, in part, by a $38.5 million non-cash benefit resulting from the remeasurement of warrants and derivatives; our quarterly GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders improved sequentially throughout fiscal 2025, due primarily to improved operational and financial performance, which ultimately positioned us to achieve positive GAAP operating income in our fourth quarter;

Removed

•Consolidated net sales of $540.4 million, compared to $550.0 million in fiscal 2023. The prior year included a full year of operations related to our solid state, high power amplifier product line divested in November 2023 (the "PST Divestiture"). Adjusted for the PST Divestiture and despite very challenging business conditions in fiscal 2024, our consolidated net sales grew slightly from fiscal 2023;

Added

•Adjusted EBITDA (a Non-GAAP financial measure discussed below) was negative $2.0 million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of positive $45.7 million in fiscal 2024; we experienced sequential quarterly improvements in Adjusted EBITDA throughout fiscal 2025, with improvements from negative $30.8 million in our first quarter to positive $13.3 million in our fourth quarter;

Added

•New bookings (also referred to as orders) of $372.7 million, resulting in an annual book-to-bill ratio of 0.75x (a measure defined as bookings divided by net sales); bookings in the third quarter included a $36.4 million debooking related to the low margin U.S. Army GFSR contract that was protested by and ultimately awarded to the incumbent in May 2025; as part of our transformation plan, we have refocused and prioritized our sales efforts to target higher margin opportunities in which we have greater differentiation;

Added

•Cash flows used in operating activities of $8.3 million, reflecting sequential quarterly improvements throughout fiscal 2025 from negative $21.8 million in our first quarter to positive $11.4 million in our fourth quarter; excluding $23.0 million in aggregate payments for restructuring costs, including severance, proxy solicitation costs and CEO transition costs, fiscal 2025 cash flows provided by operating activities would have been $14.7 million; also, fiscal 2025 operating cash flows include $29.6 million of total cash paid for interest related to debt obligations and income taxes.

Added

As of the issuance date, we determined that we have alleviated the substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern, which was first disclosed in December 2023. As discussed throughout this Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2025, such determination considered: our significantly improved operational and financial performance over recent fiscal quarters; the cumulative amendments to our senior and subordinated credit facilities (which among other things, provide for a long-term financial covenant holiday through January 31, 2027); our enhanced liquidity position; and considering our projections of future operating cash flows.

Removed

•Cash flows used in operating activities of $54.5 million, due primarily to a significant increase in the overall level of contract assets (i.e., unbilled receivables) in fiscal 2024 related to our progress on large, long-term "over-time" contracts awarded to us by certain U.S. government and international end customers, as well as the timing of payments to our suppliers as we execute on our backlog. As experienced in the latter part of fiscal 2024, we expect the level of our unbilled receivables to continue to decline throughout fiscal 2025, as we invoice our customers upon physical delivery of products or the achievement of specified contractual milestones. Additionally, cash flows used in operating activities includes $16.0 million in aggregate payments for restructuring costs, including severance, CEO transition costs and strategic emerging technology costs for next-generation satellite technology.

We operated most of fiscal 2024 under extremely difficult business conditions stemming from: a marked increase in working capital requirements related to certain troposcatter related contracts; an unexpected change in our CEO more than halfway through the fiscal year; the year-long protest by the incumbent of the large, multi-year Global Field Service Representative ("GFSR") contract awarded to us by the U.S. Army; supply chain and operational challenges that strained our liquidity at various points in the fiscal year; a prolonged refinancing of our debt capital; and a shift during our fourth quarter in the timing of our receipt and performance on a large COMET order anticipated for a certain international end country.

Removed

However, despite these challenges, the existing management team was successful in achieving many positive accomplishments along the way, such as: attracting strong talent throughout our organization; winning new strategic business opportunities, as well as competitive renewals; relocating our headquarters to be within close proximity to several key customers and suppliers; restructuring operations that had been underperforming under legacy management; reducing the level of unbilled receivables; and, importantly, emerging from fiscal 2024 with a clear vision for our company that we believe will contribute greatly toward unlocking meaningful shareholder value.

Other Key Business Developments and Updates

Added

Our Satellite and Space Communications segment continues to focus on addressing performance, thoughtfully evaluating the product portfolio and implementing initiatives to improve margins and cash flow generation.

Added

During fiscal 2025, we have revamped this segment with new leadership and streamlining; refocused our product portfolio around differentiated technology and solutions; improved accountability and process disciplines, including implementation of robust approval processes; renegotiated customer contract terms and pricing; aligned product management and program management; eliminated legacy products and services that were not contributing meaningfully to related segment net sales and or gross profits and launched new products as this segment transitions from low or no margin non-recurring engineering contracts to higher volume manufacturing orders.

Added

As an update to our recent performance, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, we were awarded a mix of orders which span across multiple product lines and included, among others:

Added

•additional funding of approximately $10.3 million from a major U.S. prime contractor in support of NASA's Orion Production and Operations Contract ("OPOC"), commonly known as the Artemis project;

Added

•incremental funding of approximately $7.4 million for continued, ongoing training and support of complex cybersecurity operations for U.S. government customers;

Added

•$2.8 million in funded orders calling for the supply of Very Small Aperture Terminal (“VSAT”) equipment and related services for the U.S. Army (given the award of the follow on "VSAT IV" contract to a competitor, we do not expect material contributions from our legacy contract going forward);

Added

•over $2.0 million in funded orders for high power Ka band traveling wave tube amplifiers for use in a satellite constellation designed to provide high speed internet access to rural areas of the U.S.;

Added

•approximately $2.0 million in funded orders from a long-term, existing international customer for the procurement of EEE space parts and services;

Added

•approximately $2.0 million in funded orders from the U.S. Navy for satellite ground infrastructure solutions;

Added

•over $1.0 million in funded orders related to an international customer's replacement of an existing air traffic control network; and

Added

•over $1.0 million in funded orders for satellite ground infrastructure solutions intended for use in the SES mPower satellite constellation.

Satellite and Space Communications

Removed

In September 2023, we were awarded a large, multi-year GFSR contract by the U.S. Army with a total potential value of $544.0 million. Through this program, we would provide ongoing communications and IT infrastructure support for the U.S. Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps and NATO, enabling U.S. and coalition forces to maintain robust, resilient and secure connectivity for global all-domain operations. The incumbent protested (and lost) the award of the contract to Comtech several times. Currently, the contract remains under protest and a stop work order. If we are successful in ultimately winning the protest, we would expect the GFSR contract to contribute significantly to our net sales in future periods.

In Septemberfiscal 2023,2024, we won a highly competitive $48.6 million contract to deliver next-generation Enterprise Digital Intermediate Frequency Multi-Carrier (“EDIM”) modems for the U.S. Army's satellite communications ("SATCOM") digitization and modernization programs. The advanced, software defined EDIM modem is intended to: support multiple satellite providers; become one of the primary modems used for U.S. military SATCOM, eventually replacing the Enhanced Bandwidth Efficient Modem ("EBEM"); and provide the U.S. Army, Navy and Air Force with a digitized, hybrid satellite network architecture. The EDIM modem would allow SATCOM users to easily roam across orbital regimes, blend capabilities from traditionally disparate networks and maintain assured, resilient connectivity in the most demanding of environments. We are progressing with our efforts on this contract and pleased to have recently secured incremental funding from the customer for additional work.work, as well as funding for initial production quantities to be delivered following the completion of final acceptance testing, currently anticipated in fiscal 2026.

Added

During fiscal 2025, we began deliveries of initial production units to our prime contractor in support of a next-generation satellite modem contract and will be moving into full production during fiscal 2026, as the program transitions from a multi-year development period into a production-oriented stage. A second next-generation product with the same prime contractor has also significantly progressed in development and is also expected to begin production deliveries in fiscal 2026. These are important milestones for the S&S segment, as they address the long-awaited migration from low-margin nonrecurring engineering efforts to higher volume production with improved operating margins and faster cash conversion cycles.

We cannot predict with certainty whether and when any of these conditions will be satisfied. In addition, the Purchase Agreement may be terminated under certain specified circumstances. If the proposed transaction is not consummated, we may experience negative reactions from the financial markets, including negative effects on our stock price. We have incurred, and will continue to incur, significant costs, expenses and fees for professional services and other transaction costs in connection with the proposed transaction, as well as the direction of management resources towards the proposed transaction, for which we will have received little or no benefit if the closing of the proposed transaction does not occur. A failed transaction may result in negative publicity and a negative impression of us in the investment community. If the proposed transaction is not consummated, there can be no assurance that any other transaction acceptable to us will be offered or that our business, prospects or results of operations will not be adversely affected. The occurrence of any of these events individually or in combination could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and our stock price.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, Including Goodwill. As of JanuaryApril 31,30, 2026, total goodwill recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet aggregated $204.6 million (of which $30.5 million relates to our Satellite and Space Communications segment and $174.1 million relates to our Allerium segment). Additionally, as of JanuaryApril 31,30, 2026, net intangibles recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet aggregated $163.0$158.4 million (of which $38.3$37.3 million relates to our Satellite and Space Communications segment and $124.7$121.1 million relates to our Allerium segment). For purposes of reviewing impairment and the recoverability of goodwill and other intangible assets, our segments each constitute a reporting unit and we must make various assumptions in determining their estimated fair values. See Part I. - Financial Information - Item 1. - Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Note (15) - Long-lived Assets, including Goodwill for further information. Ongoing and future actions supporting our transformation plan could result in a material impairment of our goodwill and/or intangible assets.

Reworded

As it relates to software developed for the purpose of internal-use (e.g., hosted "SaaS" applications within our Allerium segment), costs capitalized primarily consist of direct labor and third-party vendor costs associated with creating the software. Software development projects generally include three stages: the preliminary project stage (all costs are expensed as incurred), the application development stage (certain costs are capitalized and certain costs are expensed as incurred) and the post-implementation/operation stage (all costs are expensed as incurred). Costs capitalized in the application development stage include costs related to the design and implementation of the selected software components, software build and configuration infrastructure, and software interfaces. Capitalization of costs requires judgment in determining when a project has reached the application development stage, the proportion of time spent in the application development stage, and the period over which we expect to benefit from the use of that software. For the three months ended JanuaryApril 31,30, 2026 and 2025, internal-use software costs capitalized were $1.6$1.4 million and $0.5$1.2 million, respectively. For the sixnine months ended JanuaryApril 31,30, 2026 and 2025, internal-use software costs capitalized were $3.1$4.6 million and $1.5$2.7 million, respectively. Capitalized internal use software costs are amortized once the software is placed in service on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software, which is generally three years.

Fiscal 2026: SecondThird Quarter Results and Business Outlook

Added

On June 14, 2026, subsequent to quarter end, we entered into a transaction to sell most of Comtech's Satellite and Space Communications ("S&S") business to an affiliate of Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd. As the criteria for reporting the portion of the S&S business being sold as "held for sale" was not met as of April 30, 2026, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025 reflect the portion of the S&S business being sold as "held and used." The portion of the S&S business being retained by Comtech principally includes advanced cybersecurity training in support of U.S. government and certain commercial and university customers. In connection with the above transaction, on June 14, 2026, we also entered into additional amendments and or exchange agreements related to our Credit Facility, Subordinated Credit Facility and Convertible Preferred Stock agreements. See Part I. - Financial Information - Item 1. - Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Note (1) General - Subsequent Events, and Current Report on Form 8-K filed by us with the SEC on June 15, 2026, for more detailed information about these transactions.

As anticipated, the decline in net sales in the Satellite and Space Communications (“S&S”) segment primarily reflects the decision to phase out and eliminate certain low margin and working capital intensive revenuesrevenues, such as well as the impact of the recent U.S. government shutdown. Examples include contracts for services, including the Very Small Aperture Terminal (“VSAT”) Satellite Systems and Services Contract and the Global Field Service Representative (“GFSR”) contract, as well as legacythe troposcatter related products and services; Allerium reported higher net sales in all threeimpact of its product areas compared to the priorU.S. yeargovernment periodshutdown on funding for certain programs;

In the third quarter of fiscal 2026, S&S experienced a strengthening in its funded orders, resulting in a strong book-to-bill ratio of 1.04x. The last time S&S achieved a book-to-bill ratio greater than 1.0x was in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. The significant improvement in S&S bookings during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 includes the receipt of a troposcatter order from an international customer, in addition to the release of pent up orders and funding which we believe were delayed as a result of the prolonged U.S. government shutdown earlier in the fiscal year.

In November 2025, we entered into discussions with our prime contractor to explore a comprehensive settlement of our pending litigation. Based on a settlement reached in February 2026, along with our cost mitigation actions taken, we reduced cumulative net sales and receivables related to this contract by $2.9 million. Considering these adjustments and $0.2 million of cash collections during the first half of fiscal 2026, total receivables related to oursuch contract were $12.6$10.5 million as of JanuaryApril 31,30, 2026. Litigation related to this matter has been paused while the parties carry out their respective duties under the terms of the settlement agreement, including submission of our termination settlement proposal to the customer. While we believe that we have meritorious termination claims, some or all of our receivablesreceivable could be at risk of not being collected. Future results of operations related to our troposcatter solutions product line depend, in part, on the nature, timing and amount associated with resolving this matter.

With strategic wins in the U.S., Canada and Australia, we believe Allerium's position as a trusted leader in 911,9-1-1, NG-911NG9-1-1 and public safety applications positions us increasingly well to deliver similarly sophisticated solutions for other types of emergencies. New emergency-requesting devices, such as "wearables," vehicles, smart speakers and AI-capable cameras, along with new delivery methods, such as satellite networks, are expected to drive innovation and growth within the public safety market over time.

In April 2026, we announced that Allerium has reached a significant milestone in its statewide contract to design, deploy, and operate NG9-1-1 services for the Commonwealth of Kentucky. In December 2025, Allerium migrated the first Public Safety Answering Point (“PSAP”), Bluegrass 911 Communications, onto the Commonwealth’s new service and delivered the first NG9-1-1 text and voice calls to this Lancaster, Kentucky agency. After months of planning leading to the first cutover, the program has already migrated 12 PSAPs in its first four months of operation, establishing a strong foundation for the continued statewide transition to NG9-1-1 across Kentucky. The milestone comes just over one year after Allerium first announced its NG9-1-1 partnership with the Commonwealth and the Kentucky 911 Services Board in March 2025. Under this multi-year contract, Allerium’s public safety-grade service will deliver seamless interoperability and integration while enabling new and advanced communication capabilities, such as geospatial location routing, all backed by proven products, processes, and statewide PSAP and OSP migration success spanning multiple Emergency Services Internet Protocol Network (“ESInet”) and Next Generation Core Services (“NGCS”) deployments.

In May 2026, we announced the opening of our new purpose-built facility in Gatineau, Quebec. The new office reflects Allerium’s continued commitment to Canada and its long-standing presence in the region. The City of Gatineau and the Province of Quebec helped enable this next phase of growth, funding the development of Allerium’s new facility. Allerium’s new facility in Canada builds on strong operational momentum. This includes the recent go-live of the Gatineau 9-1-1 agency, as well as more than a dozen NG9-1-1 upgrades in Canada this fiscal year. These milestones reflect Allerium’s expanding role in modernizing emergency communications infrastructure and supporting public safety agencies in Canada and worldwide. The Gatineau facility strengthens Allerium’s ability to support customers across Canada, while contributing to a broader footprint of public safety agencies across North America and internationally.

As previously disclosed, in March 2024, Comtech terminated Ken Peterman, its President and CEO at the time, for Cause. Also, as previously disclosed, Mr. Peterman filed a claim against the Company with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) claiming he was owed direct contractual damages in excess of $6 million and consequential damages in excess of $35 million. Comtech has defended itself against Mr. Peterman's claims and filed counterclaims against Mr. Peterman seeking damages for breach of fiduciary duty, malicious prosecution, abuse of process, breach of contract and defamation. In January 2026, Mr. Peterman's counsel wrote to the AAA with two motions, (i) voluntarily withdrawing Mr. Peterman's claims against Comtech, and (ii) seeking dismissal of Comtech's counterclaims against Mr. Peterman. In January 2026, the AAA granted Mr. Peterman’s motion to withdraw all of his claims against Comtech in the arbitration, but rejected Mr. Peterman's motion for dismissal of Comtech's counterclaims. Comtech’s counterclaims are still pending against Mr. Peterman.

While business conditions and our operational and financial performance have improved over the past several quarters, the operating environment remains largely unpredictable due to many factors, including but not limited to those matters discussed throughout this Form 10-Q and in our Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements in this Form 10-Q. Such conditions and factors have caused and could cause variability in our financial results from period to period.

As anticipated, the decline in net sales in the S&S segment primarily reflects the decision to phase out and eliminate certain low margin and working capital intensive revenuesrevenues, such as well as the impact of the recent U.S. government shutdown.

Our book-to-bill ratio (a measure defined as bookings divided by net sales) in this segment for the three months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025 was 0.68x and 0.64x, respectively, and reflects the aforementioned decision to phase out and eliminate certain low margin revenues, as well as order delays related to the recent U.S. government shutdown.

Added

Our book-to-bill ratio (a measure defined as bookings divided by net sales) in this segment for the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025 was 1.04x and 0.80x (excluding a $36.4 million debooking in the prior fiscal year associated with the U.S. Army GFSR contract), respectively. In the more recent quarter, S&S experienced a strengthening in its funded orders. The last time S&S achieved a book-to-bill ratio greater than 1.0x was in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. The significant improvement in S&S bookings during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 includes the receipt of a large troposcatter order from an international customer, in addition to the release of pent up orders and funding which we believe were delayed as a result of the prolonged U.S. government shutdown earlier in the fiscal year.
