Forward guidance

Tailwinds

  • Remain on track to meet guidance
  • Deliver between $11 and $12 million of Adjusted EBITDA this fiscal year
  • Eyes set on both top- and bottom-line growth next fiscal year
  • Changes underway now and more to come that should open up new revenue streams
  • Drive profitability which in turn, should lead to increased shareholder value

Headwinds

  • Impact of COVID-19 on Aviat’s business, operations and cash flows
  • Continued price and margin erosion as a result of increased competition in the microwave transmission industry
  • The impact of the volume, timing and customer, product and geographic mix of our product orders
  • Aviat’s ability to meet financial covenant requirements which could impact, among other things, its liquidity
  • The timing of Aviat’s receipt of payment for products or services from its customers
