AVIAT NETWORKS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

Note 1. The Company and Basis of Presentation
The Company
Aviat Networks, Inc. (“Aviat,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) designs, manufactures, and sells a range of wireless networking solutions and services to mobile and fixed telephone service providers, private network operators, government agencies, transportation and utility companies, public safety agencies, and broadcast system operators across the globe. Our products include broadband wireless access base stations and customer premises equipment for fixed and mobile, point-to-point digital microwave radio systems for access, backhaul, trunking, license-exempt applications, supporting new network deployments, network expansion, and capacity upgrades.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information, and we have made estimates, assumptions and judgments affecting the amounts reported in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes, as discussed in greater detail below. Accordingly, the statements do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of our management, such interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for such periods. The results for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year or future operating periods. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2022.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
We operate on a 52-week or 53-week year ending on the Friday closest to June 30. The three months ended March 31, 2023 and the three months ended April 1, 2022 both consisted of 13 weeks. Fiscal year 2023 will be comprised of 52 weeks and will end on June 30, 2023. Fiscal year 2022 was comprised of 52 weeks and ended on July 1, 2022.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments affecting the amounts reported and related disclosures. Estimates are based upon historical factors, current circumstances and the experience and judgment of our management. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and may employ outside experts to assist us in making these evaluations. Changes in such estimates, based on more accurate information, or different assumptions or conditions, may affect amounts reported in future periods. Such estimates affect significant items, including revenue recognition, business combinations, provision for uncollectible receivables, inventory valuation, valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, uncertainties in income taxes, contingencies and recoverability of long-lived assets. The actual results that we experience may differ materially from our estimates.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no material changes in our significant accounting policies as of March 31, 2023 and for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2022.

Accounting Standards Adopted
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13) and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05 and ASU 2022-02 (collectively, “Topic 326”). Topic 326 requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. Topic 326 became effective for us in our first quarter of fiscal 2023. The adoption had no material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Balance Sheet Components

Note 3. Fair Value Measurements of Assets and Liabilities
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal market (or most advantageous market in the absence of a principal market) for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. We maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in measuring fair value and establish a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:
Level 1 — Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 — Observable market-based inputs or observable inputs that are corroborated by market data; and
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The fair values, and valuation input levels of our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2023 and July 1, 2022 were as follows:

We classify items within Level 1 if quoted prices are available in active markets. Historically our Level 1 items mainly are money market funds. As of July 1, 2022, money market funds were valued at $1.00 net asset value per share.
16



Our marketable securities are included in current assets on our balance sheet as they are available to be converted into cash to fund current operations. These marketable securities are publicly traded stock measured at fair value and classified within Level 1. For the nine months ended March 31, 2023 we recognized a loss of $1.7 million associated with the sales of our marketable securities recorded in Other (income)/expense, net.
We classify items in Level 2 if the observable inputs to quoted market prices, benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, or alternative pricing sources are available with reasonable levels of price transparency. Our bank certificates of deposit are classified within Level 2.
As of March 31, 2023 and July 1, 2022, we did not have any recurring assets or liabilities that were valued using significant unobservable inputs.
Our policy is to recognize asset or liability transfers among Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 as of the actual date of the events or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. During the first nine months of fiscal 2023 and 2022, we had no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy of our assets or liabilities measured at fair value.
Note 4. Leases
The Company has facilities under non-cancelable operating lease agreements. These leases have varying terms that range from one to 20 years and contain leasehold improvement incentives, rent holidays and escalation clauses.
We determine if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. These operating leases are included in "Right of use assets" on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and represent our right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. Our obligations to make lease payments are included in "Short-term lease liabilities" and "Long-term lease liabilities" on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. We did not enter into any finance leases during the nine months ended March 31, 2023.
The following summarizes our lease costs:

Note 5. Credit Facility and Debt
On May 17, 2021, we entered into Amendment No. 4 to Third Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “SVB Credit Facility”) which extended the expiration date to June 28, 2024. Under Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) receivership, SVB became SVB Bridge Bank as of March 13, 2023, but the Credit Facility remained in full force and effect. The SVB Credit Facility provides for a $25.0 million accounts receivable formula-based revolving credit facility that can be borrowed by our U.S. company, with a $25.0 million sub-limit that can be borrowed by our U.S. and Singapore entities. Loans may be advanced under the SVB Credit Facility based on a borrowing base equal to a specified percentage of the value of eligible accounts of the borrowers under the SVB Credit Facility. The borrowing base is subject to certain eligibility criteria. Availability under the accounts receivable formula based revolving credit facility can also be utilized to issue letters of credit with a $12.0 million sub-limit. We may prepay loans under the SVB Credit Facility in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty. As of March 31, 2023, available credit under the SVB Credit Facility was $15.8 million, reflecting the available limit of $25.0 million less outstanding letters of credit of $3.0 million. We borrowed $50.2 million and repaid $44.0 million against the SVB Credit Facility during the nine months ended March 31, 2023 at the weighted average interest rate was 6.96%. As of March 31, 2023 there was $6.2 million of borrowing outstanding.
The SVB Credit Facility carries an interest rate computed, at our option, based on either (i) at the prime rate reported in the Wall Street Journal plus a spread of 0.50% to 1.50%, with such spread determined based on our adjusted quick ratio; or (ii) if we satisfy a minimum adjusted quick ratio, a LIBOR rate determined in accordance with the SVB Credit Facility, plus a spread of 2.75%. Any outstanding Singapore subsidiary borrowed loans shall bear interest at an additional 2.00% above the applicable prime or LIBOR rate.
The SVB Credit Facility contains quarterly financial covenants including minimum adjusted quick ratio and minimum profitability (EBITDA) requirements. In the event our adjusted quick ratio falls below a certain level, cash received in our accounts with Silicon Valley Bank may be directly applied to reduce outstanding obligations under the SVB Credit Facility. The SVB Credit Facility also imposes certain restrictions on our ability to dispose of assets, permit a change in control, merge or consolidate, make acquisitions, incur indebtedness, grant liens, make investments, make certain restricted payments, and enter into transactions with affiliates under certain circumstances. Certain of our assets, including accounts receivable, inventory, and equipment, are pledged as collateral for the SVB Credit Facility. Upon an event of default, outstanding obligations would be immediately due and payable. Under certain circumstances, a default interest rate will apply on all obligations during the existence of an event of default at a per annum rate of interest equal to 5.00% above the applicable interest rate.
As of March 31, 2023, we were not in compliance with the affirmative covenant in Section 6.8 of the SVB Credit Facility, as amended, which restricts Aviat from having domestic operating or depository accounts with banks other than SVB. We opened a non-SVB deposit account with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. in the immediate aftermath of the SVB closure by regulatory authorities on March 10, 2023 so that we could continue receiving customer remittances. We subsequently
18



requested and received a waiver from the lender for this noncompliance. We were in compliance with all other aspects of the credit agreement as of March 31, 2023.
At March 31, 2023, the Company held cash and cash equivalents at Silicon Valley Bridge Bank, N.A. (“SVB Bridge Bank”) in excess of government insured limits. On March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank was closed by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, and the FDIC was appointed as receiver and Silicon Valley Bank was subsequently transferred into a new entity, SVB Bridge Bank. On March 12, 2023, the U.S. Treasury Department, the Federal Reserve and the FDIC jointly announced enabling actions that fully protect all Silicon Valley Bank depositors’ insured and uninsured deposits, and that such depositors would have access to all of their funds starting March 13, 2023. On March 14, 2023, the Company was able to access its full deposits with SVB Bridge Bank.

Note 6. Revenue Recognition
Contract Balances, Performance Obligations, and Backlog

The following table provides information about receivables and liabilities from contracts with customers (in thousands):
 March 31, 2023 July 1, 2022
Contract Balances  
Accounts receivable, net$88,458  $73,168 
Contract Assets$63,344  $45,857 
Capitalized commissions$2,231 $2,341 
Contract Liabilities  
Advance payments and unearned revenue$40,348  $33,740 
Unearned revenue, long-term$7,628  $8,920 
Capitalized commissions are classified as current and long term and included in Other current assets and Other assets, respectively. Significant changes in contract balances may arise as a result of recognition over time for services, transfer of control for equipment, and periodic payments (both in arrears and in advance).
From time to time, we may experience unforeseen events that could result in a change to the scope or price associated with an arrangement. When such events occur, we update the transaction price and measure of progress for the performance obligation and recognize the change as a cumulative catch-up to revenue. Because of the nature and type of contracts we engage in, the timeframe to completion and satisfaction of current and future performance obligations can shift; however, this will have no impact on our future obligation to bill and collect.
As of March 31, 2023, we had $48.0 million in advance payments and unearned revenue and long-term unearned revenue, of which approximately 20% is expected to be recognized as revenue in the remainder of fiscal 2023 and the balance thereafter. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 we recognized $5.0 million and $16.9 million, respectively, of revenue which was included in advance payments and unearned revenue at July 1, 2022.
Remaining Performance Obligations
The aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to our unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) performance obligations was approximately $111.8 million at March 31, 2023. Of this amount, we expect to recognize approximately 50% as revenue during the next 12 months, with the remaining amount to be recognized as revenue within two to five years.
Note 7. Segment and Geographic Information
We operate in one reportable business segment: the design, manufacturing, and sale of a range of wireless networking products, solutions, and services. Our financial performance is regularly reviewed by our chief operating decision maker who is our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”).

Note 8. Equity
Stock Repurchase Program
In November 2021 our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program to purchase up to $10.0 million of our common stock. As of March 31, 2023, $8.0 million remains available and we may choose to suspend or discontinue the repurchase program at any time.
During the first nine months of fiscal 2023, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock in the open market.

Stock Incentive Programs
As of March 31, 2023, we have a stock incentive plan for our employees and non-employee directors, the 2018 Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”). The 2018 Plan provides for the issuance of share-based awards in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards and units, and performance share awards and units.
Under the 2018 Plan, option exercise prices are equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date the options are granted using our closing stock price. After vesting, options generally may be exercised within seven years after the date of grant.
Restricted stock units are not transferable until vested and the restrictions lapse upon the achievement of continued employment or service over a specified time period. Restricted stock units issued to employees generally vest three years from the date of grant (three-year cliff or annually over three years). Restricted stock units issued to non-executive board members generally vest on the day before the next annual stockholders’ meeting.
Vesting of performance share awards and units is subject to the achievement of predetermined financial performance criteria and continued employment through the end of the applicable period. Market-based stock units vest upon meeting certain predetermined share price performance criteria and continued employment through the end of the applicable period.
20



During the nine months ended March 31, 2023, we granted 74,827 restricted stock units, 49,321 market-based stock units and 110,945 stock options to purchase shares of our common stock.
Total compensation expense for share-based awards included in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations was as follows:

Included in the above plans for which we were carrying a provision were positions identified for termination that have not been executed from a restructuring perspective.
Q2 2023 Plan
During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, our Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan, (the “Q2 2023 Plan”) which is anticipated to generate cost savings from the elimination of six roles. The Q2 2023 plan is expected to be implemented through the end of first half of fiscal 2024.

21



Q1 2023 Plan
During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, our Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan, (the “Q1 2023 Plan”) from the acquisition of Redline Communications, Inc. (“Redline”). The Q1 2023 Plan, which is anticipated to generate cost saving on integration of Redline, entails a reduction in force of approximately 20 employees due to integrating work into existing Aviat teams. The Q1 2023 Plan is expected to be implemented through the end of fiscal 2023.

Q4 2022 Plan
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, our Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan (the “Q4 2022 Plan”) to restructure specific groups to optimize skill sets and align structure to execute on strategic deliverables. The Q4 2022 Plan was completed during third quarter of fiscal 2023 with a reduction in force of approximately 11 employees with a certain number of positions being consolidated.
Fiscal 2021 Plan
During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, our Board of Directors approved restructuring plans (the “Fiscal 2021 Plan”) to continue to reduce our operating costs and improve profitability as part of our transformational initiative to optimize our business model and increase efficiencies. We recorded restructuring charges of $2.4 million related to the Fiscal 2021 Plan in fiscal 2021. The Fiscal 2021 Plan was anticipated to entail a reduction in force of approximately 30 employees and will be completed through the end of fiscal 2023, with a certain number of positions being consolidated and/or relocated.
Note 10. Acquisition
In the first quarter of fiscal 2023, we completed the acquisition of Redline, a leading provider of mission-critical data infrastructure. Acquiring Redline allows Aviat to expand its Private Networks Offering with Private LTE/5G, Unlicensed Wireless Access Solutions, by creating an integrated end-to-end offering for wireless access and transport in the Private Networks segment, leveraging Aviat's sales channel to address a large dollar Private LTE/5G addressable market and increasing Aviat’s reach in mission-critical industrial Private Networks.
The consideration paid by Aviat for this all-cash acquisition was $20.4 million. Cash acquired as part of acquisition was $4.6 million for total net consideration of $15.8 million. A summary of the preliminary allocation, pursuant to the completion of purchase price allocation, of the total purchase consideration is as follows:

Note 11. Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to results of foreign operations that are subject to income taxes at different statutory rates and certain jurisdictions where we cannot recognize tax benefit on current losses. During interim periods, we accrue tax expenses for jurisdictions that are anticipated to be profitable for fiscal 2023.

The determination of our income taxes for the nine months ended March 31, 2023 and April 1, 2022 was based on our estimated annual effective tax rate adjusted for losses in certain jurisdictions for which no tax benefit can be recognized. Our tax expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily due to tax expense related to U.S. and profitable foreign subsidiaries, including tax expense associated with our acquisition of Redline in July 2022 and subsequent restructuring impact. The tax expense for the nine months ended April 1, 2022 was primarily due to tax expense related to U.S. and profitable foreign subsidiaries.

We have a number of open income tax audits covering various tax years, which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Our major tax jurisdictions that are open and subject to potential audits include the U.S., Singapore, Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, and Saudi Arabia. The earliest years for these jurisdictions are as follows: U.S. - 2003; Singapore - 2015; Ghana – 2016; Kenya - 2018: Nigeria - 2006; and Saudi Arabia - 2019.

We account for interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as part of our provision for federal, foreign, and state income taxes. Such interest expense was not material for the nine months ended March 31, 2023 and April 1, 2022.

On March 11, 2021, the U.S. enacted the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (“ARPA”) which expands Section 162(m) to cover the next five most highly compensated employees for the taxable year, in addition to the “covered employees” effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2026. We continue to examine the elements of the ARPA and the impact they may have on our future business.

On August 16, 2022, the U.S. enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) which includes a new corporate alternative minimum tax of 15% on adjusted financial statement income of corporations with profits greater than $1 billion, effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022, and a 1% excise tax on stock repurchases by public corporations after December 31, 2022. We will continue to evaluate the applicability and effect of the IRA as more guidance is issued.

Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies
Purchase Orders and Other Commitments
From time to time in the normal course of business, we may enter into purchasing agreements with our suppliers that require us to accept delivery of, and remit full payment for, finished products that we have ordered, finished products that we requested be held as safety stock, and work in process started on our behalf, in the event we cancel or terminate the purchasing agreement. Because these agreements do not specify fixed or minimum quantities, do not specify minimum or variable price provisions, and do not specify the approximate timing of the transaction, and we have no present intention to cancel or terminate any of these agreements, we currently do not believe that we have any future liability under these agreements. We currently rely on a few vendors for substantially all of our inventory purchases. As of March 31, 2023, we had outstanding purchase obligations with our suppliers or contract manufacturers of $47.6 million. In addition, we had contractual obligations of approximately $3.9 million associated with software licenses as of March 31, 2023.
Financial Guarantees and Commercial Commitments
Guarantees issued by banks, insurance companies, or other financial institutions are contingent commitments issued to guarantee our performance under borrowing arrangements, such as bank overdraft facilities, tax and customs obligations, and similar transactions, or to ensure our performance under customer or vendor contracts. The terms of the guarantees are generally equal to the remaining term of the related debt or other obligations and are generally limited to two years or less. As of March 31, 2023, we had no guarantees applicable to our debt arrangements.
We have entered into commercial commitments in the normal course of business including surety bonds, standby letters of credit agreements, and other arrangements with financial institutions primarily relating to the guarantee of future performance on certain contracts to provide products and services to customers. As of March 31, 2023, we had commercial commitments of $62.8 million outstanding that were not recorded on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
24



We do not believe, based on historical experience and information currently available, that it is probable that any significant amounts will be required to be paid on these performance guarantees in the future.
The following table presents details of our commercial commitments:

Indemnifications
Under the terms of substantially all of our license agreements, we have agreed to defend and pay any final judgment against our customers arising from claims against such customers that our products infringe the intellectual property rights of a third party. As of March 31, 2023, we have not received any notice that any customer is subject to an infringement claim arising from the use of our products; we have not received any request to defend any customers from infringement claims arising from the use of our products; and we have not paid any final judgment on behalf of any customer related to an infringement claim arising from the use of our products. Because the outcome of infringement disputes is related to the specific facts of each case and given the lack of previous or current indemnification claims, we cannot estimate the maximum amount of potential future payments, if any, related to our indemnification provisions. As of March 31, 2023, we had not recorded any liabilities related to these indemnifications.
Legal Proceedings
We are subject from time to time to disputes with customers concerning our products and services. From time to time, we may be involved in various other legal claims and litigation that arise in the normal course of our operations. We are aggressively defending all current litigation matters. Although there can be no assurances and the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, we currently believe that none of these claims or proceedings are likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position. We expect to defend each of these disputes vigorously. There are many uncertainties associated with any litigation and these actions or other third-party claims against us may cause us to incur costly litigation and/or substantial settlement charges. As a result, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be adversely affected. The actual liability in any such matters may be materially different from our estimates, if any.
We record accruals for our outstanding legal proceedings, investigations or claims when it is probable that a liability will be incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. We evaluate, at least on a quarterly basis, developments in legal proceedings, investigations or claims that could affect the amount of any accrual, as well as any developments that would result in a loss contingency to become both probable and reasonably estimable. We have not recorded any accrual for loss contingencies associated with such legal claims or litigation discussed above.
Contingent Liabilities
We record a loss contingency as a charge to operations when (i) it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements; and (ii) the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Disclosure in the Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements is required for loss contingencies that do not meet both those conditions if there is a reasonable possibility that a loss may have been incurred. Gain contingencies are not recorded until realized. We expense all legal costs incurred to resolve regulatory, legal, and tax matters as incurred.
In March 2016, an enforcement action by the Indian Department of Revenue, Ministry of Finance was brought against our subsidiary Aviat Networks (India) Private Limited (“Aviat India”) relating to the non-realization of intercompany receivables and non-payment of intercompany payables, which originated from 1999 to 2012, within the time frames dictated by the Indian regulations under the Foreign Exchange Management Act. In November 2017, the Indian Department of Revenue, Ministry of Finance also initiated a similar action against Telsima Communications Private Limited (“Telsima India”), a subsidiary of the Company, relating to the non-realization of intercompany receivables and non-payment of intercompany payables which originated from the period prior to our acquisition of Telsima India in February 2009.

September 2019, our directors of Aviat India appeared before the Ministry of Finance Enforcement Directorate. No settlement offers were discussed at the meeting and the matter is still ongoing with no subsequent hearing date currently scheduled as of March 31, 2023. We have accrued an immaterial amount representing the estimated probable loss for which we would settle the matter. We currently cannot form an estimate of the range of loss in excess of our amounts already accrued. If the outcome of this matter is greater than the current immaterial amount accrued, we intend to dispute it vigorously.
Periodically, we review the status of each significant matter to assess the potential financial exposure. If a potential loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, we reflect the estimated loss in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. Significant judgment is required to determine the probability that a liability has been incurred or an asset impaired and whether such loss is reasonably estimable. Further, estimates of this nature are highly subjective, and the final outcome of these matters could vary significantly from the amounts that have been included in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. As additional information becomes available, we reassess the potential liability related to our pending claims and litigation and may revise estimates accordingly. Such revisions in the estimates of the potential liabilities could have a material impact on our results of operations and financial position.

Overview of Business; Operating Environment and Key Factors Impacting Fiscal 2023 and 2022 Results
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand our results of operations and financial condition. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. In the discussion herein, our fiscal year ending June 30, 2023 is referred to as “fiscal 2023” or “2023” and our fiscal year ended July 1, 2022 is referred to as “fiscal 2022” or “2022.”
Overview
Aviat sells radios, routers, software and services integral to the functioning of data transport networks. We have more than 3,000 customers and significant relationships with global service providers and private network operators. Our manufacturing base in North America consists of a combination of contract manufacturing and assembly and test operated in Austin, Texas by Aviat. Additionally, we utilize a contract manufacturer based in Asia for much of our international equipment demand. Our technology is underpinned by more than 200 patents. We compete on the basis of total cost of ownership, microwave radio expertise and solutions for mission critical communications. We have a global presence.

While supply chain lead-times remain extended and difficult to manage and certain components remain on allocation, we have seen recent improvements in the supply chain environment. The impact that supply chain constraints had on our ability to fulfill orders for the current quarter was minimal. Depending on the progression of factors such as supply allocations, lead-time trends and our ability to perform field services, we could experience constraints and delays in fulfilling customer orders in future periods. We continually monitor, assess and adapt to the situation to mitigate impacts on our business, supply chain and customer demand. We expect the potential for these challenges to continue until business and economic activities return to more normal levels worldwide.
We continue to be impacted by inflationary pressures incurred to overcome supply chain and logistical bottlenecks. We will monitor, assess and adapt to the situation and prepare for implications to our business, supply chain and customer demand. We expect these challenges to continue until business and economic activities return to more normal levels.

Business Combination with Redline Communications

On July 5, 2022, Aviat acquired Redline Communications, Inc. (“Redline”), a leading provider of mission-critical data infrastructure. Redline allows Aviat to expand its Private Networks Offering with Private LTE/5G, Unlicensed Wireless Access Solutions, by creating an integrated end-to-end offering for wireless access and transport in the Private Networks segment, leveraging Aviat's sales channel to address the large Private LTE/5G market and increasing Aviat’s reach in mission-critical industrial Private Networks.

Operations Review
The market for mobile backhaul continued to be our primary addressable market segment globally in the first nine months of fiscal 2023. In North America, we supported 5G and long-term evolution (“LTE”) deployments of our mobile operator customers, public safety network deployments for state and local governments, and private network implementations for utilities and other customers. In international markets, our business continued to rely on a combination of customers increasing their capacity to handle subscriber growth, the ongoing build-out of some large LTE deployments, and 5G deployments. Our position continues to be to support our customers for 5G and LTE readiness and ensure that our technology roadmap is well aligned with evolving market requirements. Our strength in turnkey and after-sale support services is a differentiating factor that wins business for us and enables us to expand our business with existing customers in all markets. Additionally, we operate an e-commerce platform that provides low cost services, a simple experience, and fast delivery to mobile operator and private network customers. However, as disclosed above and in the “Risk Factors” section in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on September 14, 2022, a number of factors could prevent us from achieving our objectives, including ongoing pricing pressures attributable to competition and macroeconomic conditions in the geographic markets that we serve.
Revenue
We manage our sales activities primarily on a geographic basis in North America and three international geographic regions: (1) Africa and the Middle East, (2) Europe, and (3) Latin America and Asia Pacific. Revenue by region for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 and April 1, 2022 and the related changes were as follows:

Our revenue in North America decreased by $(3.0) million, or (6.1)%, during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared with the same period of fiscal 2022. Revenue in North America decreased by $(4.1) million, or (2.7)%, during the nine months ended fiscal 2023 compared with the same period of fiscal 2022. The decrease in North America revenue during the three and nine months ended fiscal 2023 were primarily driven by lower tier one product volumes and lower private network volumes partially offset by higher service volume.
Our revenue in Africa and the Middle East increased by $6.1 million or 46.6% during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared with the same period of fiscal 2022. Revenue in Africa and the Middle East increased by $7.0 million, or 18.7%, during the nine months of fiscal 2023 compared with the same period of fiscal 2022. This increase in revenue during the three and nine months ended fiscal 2023 was primarily driven by increased product sales to mobile and private network operators in the region.
Revenue in Europe increased by $1.0 million, or 33.6%, for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared with the same period of fiscal 2022. Revenue in Europe increased by $5.2 million, or 61.1%, during the nine months of fiscal 2023 compared with the same period of fiscal 2022. This increase during the three and nine months ended fiscal 2023 was primarily driven by increased sales to mobile operators.

Revenue in Latin America and Asia Pacific increased by $4.9 million, or 51.4%, during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared with the same period of fiscal 2022, and increased by $21.8 million, or 75.9%, during the first nine months ended fiscal 2023 compared with the same period of fiscal 2022. This increase during the three and nine months ended fiscal 2023 was primarily driven by a key customer win in Asia Pacific and increased product sales to mobile operators in Latin America.

Gross margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 increased by $2.3 million, or 8.3% compared with the same quarter of fiscal 2022. Gross margin for the first nine months of fiscal 2023, increased by $9.7 million, or 11.9%. The gross margin improvement was primarily due to higher volume of Private Network and mobile operator business as well as the contribution from the Redline acquisition.
Gross margin as a percentage of product revenue decreased in the third quarter and in the first nine months of fiscal 2023 compared with the prior year periods primarily due to regional and customer mix partially offset by the accretive contribution of the Redline acquisition. Service margin as a percentage of service revenue in the third quarter and in the first nine months of fiscal 2023, increased compared to the same periods in fiscal 2022 due to changes in the stand-alone prices for products and services and the resulting impact on the allocation of the overall transaction price to services.

We estimate our annual effective tax rate at the end of each quarterly period, and we record the tax effect of certain discrete items in the interim period in which they occur, including changes in judgment about uncertain tax positions and deferred tax valuation allowances.
The tax expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 was primarily due to the tax expense related to U.S. and profitable foreign subsidiaries. The tax expense for the first nine months of fiscal 2023 was primarily due to the tax expense related to U.S. and profitable foreign subsidiaries, including tax expense associated with our acquisition of Redline in July 2022 and subsequent restructuring impact. See Note 10: Acquisition.

Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Financial Strategies
Sources of Cash
As of March 31, 2023, our total cash and cash equivalents were $22.5 million. Approximately $4.6 million, or 20.5%, was held in the United States. The remaining balance of $17.9 million, or 79.5%, was held by entities outside the United States. Of the amount of cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries on March 31, 2023, $16.6 million was held in jurisdictions where our undistributed earnings are indefinitely reinvested, and if repatriated, would be subject to foreign withholding taxes.
Operating Activities
Cash provided by or used in operating activities is presented as net income adjusted for non-cash items and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Net cash used in operating activities was $9.0 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2023, compared to $10.8 million cash used in operations for the first nine months of fiscal 2022; this difference was primarily related to a net change in Other Assets and Liabilities, Accrued Expenses, Inventories, Advance Payments and Unearned Revenue, partially offset by the net change in Accounts Receivable. Net cash provided by noncash items was $19.4 million for the first nine months of 2023. The net changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in a net use of cash of $36.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2023, compared to net use of cash of $40.0 million for the same period in fiscal 2022.
Changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in a net use of cash for the first nine months of fiscal 2023 primarily related to Accounts Receivable that fluctuate from period to period, depending on the amount and timing of sales, billing activities and cash collections; and an increase in Accounts Payable, by the timing of payments. The use of cash from assets and liabilities was partially offset by customer Unbilled Receivables and Advance Payments and Unearned Revenue; Accrued Expenses, Inventories and Other Assets and Liabilities.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $11.7 million and $1.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2023 and 2022, respectively, which consisted of the Redline acquisition and capital expenditures offset by proceeds from the sale of marketable securities.
Financing Activities
Financing cash flows consist primarily of borrowings and repayments of short-term debt, repurchase of stock and proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock through employee equity plans. Net cash provided by financing activities was $6.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2023, primarily from cash proceeds from Short-term Debt and the issuance of common stock under employee stock plans of $1.1 million partially offset by payments for taxes related to settlement of equity awards of $1.1 million. Net cash used in financing activities was $4.0 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2022, primarily due to the repurchase of common stock of $(4.6) million partially offset by cash proceeds from the issuance of common stock under employee stock plans of $0.9.
As of March 31, 2023, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of $22.5 million in cash and cash equivalents; $15.8 million of available credit under our $25.0 million SVB Credit Facility, which matures on June 28, 2024, and future collections of receivables from customers. We regularly require letters of credit from certain customers, and, from time to time, these letters of credit are discounted without recourse shortly after shipment occurs in order to meet immediate liquidity requirements and to reduce our credit and sovereign risk. Historically, our primary sources of liquidity have been cash flows from operations and credit facilities. Additionally, we have an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 allowing us to offer and sell, either individually or in combination, in one or more offerings, up to a total dollar amount of $200 million of any combination of the securities described in the shelf registration statement or a related prospectus supplement.
We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, the available line of credit under the SVB Credit Facility and future cash collections from customers will be sufficient to provide for our anticipated requirements for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. On May 17, 2021, we entered into Amendment No. 4 to Third Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement to extend the maturity date to June 28, 2024. The SVB Credit Facility provides for a $25.0 million accounts receivable formula-based revolving credit facility that can be borrowed by the U.S. company, with a
32



$25.0 million sub-limit that can be borrowed by our U.S. and Singapore entities. Loans may be advanced under the SVB Credit Facility based on a borrowing base equal to a specified percentage of the value of eligible accounts of all borrowers under the SVB Credit Facility. The borrowing base is subject to certain eligibility criteria. Availability under the accounts receivable formula-based revolving credit facility can also be utilized to issue letters of credit with a $12.0 million sub-limit. On March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank was closed by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, and the FDIC was appointed as receiver and Silicon Valley Bank was subsequently transferred into a new entity, SVB Bridge Bank. Full access to our SVB Bridge Bank deposits and credit facility were restored by March 14, 2023. As of March 31, 2023, available credit under the SVB Credit Facility was $15.8 million, reflecting the available limit of $25.0 million less outstanding letters of credit of $3.0 million. We borrowed $50.2 million and repaid $44.0 million against the SVB Credit Facility during the nine months ended March 31, 2023. As of March 31, 2023 there was $6.2 million of borrowing outstanding.
As of March 31, 2023, we were not in compliance with the affirmative covenant in Section 6.8 of the SVB Credit Facility, as amended, which restricts Aviat from having domestic operating or depository accounts with banks other than SVB. We opened a non-SVB deposit account with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. in the immediate aftermath of the SVB closure by regulatory authorities on March 10, 2023 so that we could continue receiving customer remittances. We subsequently requested and received a waiver from the lender for this noncompliance. We were in compliance with all other aspects of the credit agreement.

As of March 31, 2023, we had commercial commitments of $62.8 million outstanding that were not recorded on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Restructuring Payments
We had liabilities for restructuring activities totaling $0.9 million as of March 31, 2023, which were classified as current liabilities and expected to be paid out in cash over the next 12 months. We expect to fund these future payments with available cash and cash provided by operations.

Critical Accounting Estimates
For information about our critical accounting estimates, see the “Critical Accounting Estimates” section of “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our fiscal 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
In the normal course of doing business, we are exposed to the risks associated with foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates. We employ established policies and procedures governing the use of financial instruments to manage our exposure to such risks.
Exchange Rate Risk
We conduct business globally in numerous currencies and are therefore exposed to foreign currency risks. We use derivative instruments to reduce the volatility of earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We do not hold or issue derivatives for trading purposes or make speculative investments in foreign currencies.
We sometimes use foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge forecasted foreign currency transactions relating to sales and purchase transactions. The foreign exchange hedges do not qualify as cash flow hedges. The changes in fair value related to the hedges will be recorded in income or expenses line items on our statements of operations.
From time-to-time, we also enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to mitigate the change in fair value of specific non-functional currency assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. All balance sheet hedges are marked to market through earnings every period. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are largely offset by re-measurement of the underlying assets and liabilities.
As of March 31, 2023, we had no forward contracts outstanding.
Certain of our international business is transacted in non-U.S. dollar currency. As discussed above, from time to time we utilize foreign currency hedging instruments to minimize the currency risk of international transactions. The impact of
33



translating the assets and liabilities of foreign operations to U.S. dollars for the first nine months of fiscal 2023 and 2022 was $0.3 million and $(1.1) million, respectively, and was included as a component of stockholders’ equity. As of March 31, 2023 and July 1, 2022, the cumulative translation adjustment decreased our equity by $15.8 million and $16.0 million, respectively.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our cash equivalents and borrowings under our SVB Credit Facility.
Exposure on Cash Equivalents
We had $22.5 million in total cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2023. Cash equivalents totaled $3.7 million as of March 31, 2023 and were comprised of bank certificates of deposit. Cash equivalents investments have been recorded at fair value on our balance sheet. Fair value is measured using inputs that fall into a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value based on observability of such inputs. For more information on the fair value measurements of cash equivalents, please refer to “Note 3 Fair Value Measurements of Assets and Liabilities” of the Notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Our cash equivalents earn interest at fixed rates; therefore, changes in interest rates will not generate a gain or loss on these investments unless they are sold prior to maturity. The weighted-average days to maturity for cash equivalents held as of March 31, 2023 was 27 days, and these investments had an average yield of approximately 5% per annum. A 10% change in interest rates on our cash equivalents is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Exposure on Borrowings
Our borrowings under the SVB Credit Facility incurred interest at the prime rate plus a spread of 0.50% to 1.50% with such spread determined based on our adjusted quick ratio. During the first nine months of fiscal 2023, our weighted-average interest rate was 6.96%, and the interest expense on these borrowings was immaterial.
A 10% change in interest rates on the current borrowings or on future borrowings is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows since interest on our borrowings is not material to our overall financial position.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on management’s evaluation, with the participation of our President and CEO, and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as of March 31, 2023, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, are effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our CEO and CFO, in a manner that allows for timely decisions regarding required disclosures and is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There were no changes to our internal controls over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well-designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances
34



of fraud, if any, have been detected. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

PART II.     OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
For a discussion of legal proceedings as of March 31, 2023, please refer to “Legal Proceedings” and “Contingent Liabilities” under “Note 13 Commitments and Contingencies” of the Notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which are incorporated into this item by reference.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
Investors should carefully review and consider the information regarding certain factors which could materially affect our business, operating results, cash flows, and financial condition set forth under Item 1A, Risk Factors, in our fiscal 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on September 14, 2022.
In light of the recent developments in the financial services industry we disclose the additional risk factor below. We may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations.

Adverse developments affecting the financial services industry, including events or concerns involving liquidity, defaults or non-performance by financial institutions, could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Actual events involving limited liquidity, defaults, non-performance or other adverse developments that affect financial institutions or the financial services industry generally, or concerns or rumors about any events of these kinds or other similar risks, have in the past and may in the future adversely affect our liquidity. In addition, investor concerns regarding the U.S. or international financial systems could result in less favorable commercial financing terms, including higher interest rates or costs and tighter financial and operating covenants, or systemic limitations on access to credit and liquidity sources, thereby making it more difficult for us to acquire financing on terms favorable to us, or at all. Any decline in available funding or access to our cash and liquidity resources could, among other things, adversely impact our ability to meet our operating expenses, financial obligations or fulfill our other obligations, result in breaches of our contractual obligations or result in violations of federal or state wage and hour laws. Any of these impacts, or any other impacts resulting from the factors described above or other related or similar factors not described above, could have material adverse impacts on our liquidity and our business, financial condition or results of operations.

In addition, any further deterioration in the macroeconomic economy or financial services industry could lead to losses or defaults by our customers or suppliers, which in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our current and/or projected business operations and results of operations and financial condition. Any customer or supplier bankruptcy or insolvency, or the failure of any customer to make payments when due, or any breach or default by a customer or supplier, or the loss of any significant supplier relationships, could result in material losses to the Company and may have a material adverse impact on our business.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
During the first nine months of fiscal 2023 we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock in the open market.
In November 2021 our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program to purchase up to $10.0 million of our common stock. As of March 31, 2023, $8.0 million remains available under the stock repurchase program, and we may choose to suspend or discontinue the repurchase program at any time.
