Revenues
The Company reported total revenues of $88.4 million for its fiscal 2025 first quarter, compared to $86.9 million in the fiscal 2024 first quarter, an increase of $1.5 million or 1.7%. North America revenue of $42.2 million decreased by $(12.6) million or (23.0)%, compared to $54.9 million in the prior year due lower tier 1 demand and timing of certain private network projects. International revenue of $46.2 million increased by $14.1 million or 44.1%, compared to $32.1 million in the prior year. This growth was due to the addition from the Pasolink acquisition.
Gross Margins
In the fiscal 2025 first quarter, the Company reported GAAP gross margin of 22.4% and non-GAAP gross margin of 23.2%. This compares to GAAP gross margin of 35.9% and non-GAAP gross margin of 36.2% in the fiscal 2024 first quarter, a decrease of (1,350) and (1,300) basis points, respectively. The decrease was driven by mix shift away from higher margin projects and regions in the quarter.
Operating Expenses
The Company reported GAAP total operating expenses of $35.4 million for the fiscal 2025 first quarter, compared to $26.3 million in the fiscal 2024 first quarter, an increase of $9.1 million or 34.4%.

Operating Income
The Company reported GAAP operating loss of $(15.6) million for the fiscal 2025 first quarter, compared to a GAAP operating income of $4.9 million in the fiscal 2024 first quarter, a decrease of $(20.5) million. Operating income decreased primarily due to lower gross margin and higher operating expenses as a result of the Pasolink and 4RF transactions. On a non-GAAP basis, the Company reported operating loss of $(9.5) million for the fiscal 2025 first quarter, compared to a non-GAAP operating income of $7.6 million in the prior year, a decrease of $(17.1) million.
Income Taxes

Net Income / Net Income Per Share
The Company reported GAAP net loss of $(11.9) million in the fiscal 2025 first quarter or GAAP net loss per share of $(0.94). This compared to GAAP net income of $3.6 million or GAAP net income per share of $0.30 in the fiscal 2024 first quarter. On a non-GAAP basis, the Company reported net loss of $(11.1) million or non-GAAP net income per share of $(0.87), compared to non-GAAP net income of $7.2 million or $0.60 per share in the prior year.

AVIAT NETWORKS, INC.
Fiscal Year 2025 First Quarter Summary
RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND REGULATION G DISCLOSURE
To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP), we provide additional measures of gross margin, research and development expenses, selling and administrative expenses, operating income, provision for or benefit from income taxes, net income, net income per share, and adjusted income before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA), in each case, adjusted to exclude certain costs, charges, gains and losses, as set forth below. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP financial measures provide information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results separate and apart from items that may, or could, have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on results in any particular period. We also believe these non-GAAP measures enhance the ability of investors to analyze trends in our business and to understand our performance. In addition, we may utilize non-GAAP financial measures as a guide in our forecasting, budgeting and long-term planning process and to measure operating performance for some management compensation purposes. Any analysis of non-GAAP financial measures should be used only in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP follow.
1We have not reconciled Adjusted EBITDA guidance to its corresponding GAAP measure due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections, particularly with respect to merger and acquisition costs and share-based compensation. In particular, share-based compensation expense is affected by future hiring, turnover, and retention needs, as well as the future fair market value of our common stock, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to change. Accordingly, reconciliations of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA are not available without unreasonable effort.

The adjustments above reconcile our GAAP financial results to the non-GAAP financial measures used by us. Our non-GAAP net income excluded share-based compensation, and other non-recurring charges (recovery). Adjusted EBITDA was determined by excluding depreciation and amortization on property, plant and equipment, interest, provision for or benefit from income taxes, and non-GAAP pre-tax adjustments, as set forth above, from GAAP net income. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP items provides meaningful supplemental information to investors, when viewed in conjunction with, and not in lieu of, our GAAP results. However, the non-GAAP financial measures have not been prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP information should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures.

Force Therapeutics Reduces 30-Day Readmissions, New Study Shows
Published
1 second agoon
November 6, 2024By
Research demonstrates hospitals using Force Therapeutics care management platform benefit from significantly lower excess readmissions, positioning them for success under TEAM
NEW YORK, Nov. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Force Therapeutics, the leading orthopedic digital care management platform, announced today the release of new research demonstrating how hospitals that use the platform, compared to those that do not, exhibit much lower excess readmission rates. In addition, within a single organization, sites that do use Force Therapeutics were shown to have substantially lower excess readmission rates compared to sites that do not.
This research stemmed from the recent announcement from Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) surrounding the introduction of the Transforming Episode Accountability Model (TEAM), a new mandatory payment model aimed at reducing costs and improving care quality across five episode categories: lower extremity joint replacements (LEJR), surgical hip/femur fracture treatments (SHFFT), coronary artery bypass grafts (CABG), spinal fusions, and major bowel procedures.
Similar to previous bundled payment models, hospitals mandated to participate in TEAM will be required to maintain 30-day episode spending below a certain target price, subject to care quality adjustments. Those who succeed will receive financial incentives, while those who exceed the target price will be required to issue repayments to CMS. Within this context, excess readmissions–which are associated with significant costs–carry an outsized impact on 30-day episode spending, making it absolutely critical that hospitals work to eliminate avoidable readmissions to the best of their abilities.
The research is based on data obtained from the CMS Hospital Readmission Reduction Program (HRRP) for the period of July 2019 through June 2022. In the first part of the study, all hospitals in the HRRP were grouped into 3 categories: Hospitals that used Force throughout the study time frame, hospitals that used Force during part of the study time frame, and hospitals that have never used Force. Hospitals in the first category demonstrated on average an excess readmission rate of 0.98, reflecting less readmissions than expected based on patient population risk factors, while the other two categories saw excess readmission rates of 1.04 and 1.01. The analysis clearly illustrates how hospitals using Force outmatch their counterparts and benefit from substantially lower readmissions, supporting higher quality care for their patients and lowering their Medicare cost expenditures.
In the second part of the study, one large academic health system was selected for a site by site investigation; two of the organization’s sites had been using Force, while a third site was not. Among the two sites using Force, excess readmission rates stood at 0.94 and 0.87, while the third site not using Force had an excess readmission rate of 1.25. Once again, this data shows how slight variations in care, even between sites within a single hospital system, can lead to drastically different quality of care results. With Force, care standardization at scale minimizes outliers, enabling hospitals to provide smarter value-based care.
“As the beginning of TEAM in January 2026 approaches, our team and partner care organizations are working to ensure that all the components of delivering high-quality value-based care are in place well ahead of time,” said Bronwyn Spira, CEO, Force Therapeutics. “With our platform, hospitals can fully engage their patients to capture important insights remotely, setting the stage for successful post-operative home recoveries and avoiding highly costly and stressful adverse events such as readmissions, despite the increasingly short amount of time these patients spend in the hospital setting.”
Force Therapeutics, says Spira, enables hospitals to comprehensively prepare patients for surgery and offer in-depth virtual support at every step of the recovery journey. Beyond minimizing readmissions, this empowers patients and providers to designate clear patient expectations and enable shared decision making, which has been shown to result in higher patient satisfaction and superior functional outcomes.
This is accomplished through gold-standard pre- and post-operative education to prevent complications (such as infections and blood clots); actionable watchlists to provide visibility into patient progress and enable early intervention; remote monitoring and smart alerts to flag signs of challenging recovery journeys; and direct communication tools to quickly address questions and avoid ED visits. The platform also boasts an unparalleled level of patient engagement and long-term PROMs capture rates, supporting regulatory compliance and quality improvement initiatives.
