    Impact of the "Swords of Iron" War on the Company:

    On October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel's southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of brutal attacks on civilian and military targets. Hamas and soon thereafter Hezbollah, operating from Lebanon, launched extensive rocket attacks on the Israeli population and industrial centers, including areas in which some of Elbit's facilities and employees were located. Following the October 7 attacks, the State of Israel declared a state of war, which it called "Swords of Iron", commencing a military campaign in Gaza and, at a later stage, in Lebanon. Israel was also subject to missile and drone attacks by Iran and other terrorist organizations on different fronts, including the Houthi movement from Yemen and rebel militia groups in Syria. These attacks prompted military responses by Israel. In addition, the Houthi movement launched attacks on shipping in the Red Sea, resulting in widespread rerouting of cargo ships and some shipping companies ceasing shipments to Israel. The current situation is complex, with a temporary ceasefire agreed to between Israel and Lebanon at the end of November 2024 and a separate temporary ceasefire declared with Hamas in January 2025. The results of both ceasefires are uncertain.

    Since the commencement of the war, Elbit Systems has experienced a material increased demand for its products and solutions from the Israel Ministry of Defense (IMOD) compared to the demand levels prior to the war. The Company has also increased its support to the IMOD, mainly through deliveries of its various systems and the dedicated efforts of its employees. At the same time, the Company and its subsidiaries around the world continued to conduct their business in international markets. During 2024, the Company was awarded contracts by the IMOD totaling over $5 billion. Subject to further developments, which are difficult to predict, the IMOD's increased demand for the Company's products and solutions may continue and could generate material additional orders to the Company. 

    While the vast majority of the Company's facilities in Israel continue to operate uninterrupted, some of Elbit's operations have experienced disruptions due to supply chain and operational constraints, including among others due to the temporary evacuation of employees working at facilities subject to missile attack, significant employee call up for reserve duty, increase in transportation costs and delays due to factors such as the Houthi movement attacks on shipping in the Red Sea, material and component shortages, limitations imposed by some countries on exports to Israel and attacks on some of Elbit's global facilities by anti-Israeli organizations.

    Elbit Systems has taken a number of steps to protect the safety and security of its employees in Israel and abroad, to support increased production, mitigate existing and potential supply chain disruptions and to maintain business continuity, including the relocation of certain production lines from facilities in evacuated areas to alternative facilities, recruitment of additional employees, increased monitoring of global supply chains to identify delays, shortages and bottlenecks, rescheduling deliveries to certain customers as necessary, and increased inventories. As of March 6, 2025, most relocated production lines have returned to their original locations, most employees evacuated from facilities subject to attacks have returned to their original locations and the percentage of employees called up for reserve duty has declined from approximately 5% on December 31, 2024 to approximately 4%. This rate could fluctuate depending on future developments.

    The extent of the effects of the war on the Company's performance will depend on future developments that are difficult to predict at this time, including its duration and scope. We continue to monitor the situation closely.

     

    * Non-GAAP financial data:

    The following non-GAAP financial data, including adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share, is presented to enable investors to have additional information on our business performance as well as a further basis for periodical comparisons and trends relating to our financial results. We believe such data provides useful information to investors and analysts by facilitating more meaningful comparisons of our financial results over time. The non-GAAP adjustments exclude amortization expenses of intangible assets related to acquisitions that occurred mainly in prior periods, capital gains related primarily to the sale of investments, restructuring activities, uncompensated costs related to "Swords of Iron" war, non-cash stock based compensation expenses, revaluations of investments in affiliated companies, non-operating foreign exchange gains or losses, one-time tax expenses, and the effect of tax on each of these items. We present these non-GAAP financial measures because management believes they supplement and/or enhance management's, analysts' and investors' overall understanding of the Company's underlying financial performance and trends and facilitate comparisons among current, past, and future periods.

    Specifically, management uses adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating income, and adjusted net income attributable to the Company's shareholders to measure the ongoing gross profit, operating profit and net income performance of the Company because the measure adjusts for more significant non-recurring items, amortization expenses of intangible assets relating to prior acquisitions, and non-cash expense which can fluctuate year to year.

    We believe adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating income, and adjusted net income attributable to the Company's shareholders are useful to existing shareholders, potential shareholders and other users of our financial information because they provide measures of the Company's ongoing performance that enable these users to perform trend analysis using comparable data.

    Management uses adjusted diluted earnings per share to evaluate further adjusted net income attributable to the Company's shareholders while considering changes in the number of diluted shares over comparable periods.

    We believe adjusted diluted earnings per share is useful to existing shareholders, potential shareholders and other users of our financial information because it also enables these users to evaluate adjusted net income attributable to Company's shareholders on a per-share basis.

    The non-GAAP measures used by the Company are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. We believe that non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and that these measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.

    Investors are cautioned that, unlike financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, non-GAAP measures may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other companies. They should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as replacements for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
