On November 21, 2024 (as amended on December 31, 2024), Mr. Peterman filed a claim with the American Arbitration Association, alleging that Comtech materially breached the Employment Agreement in the termination for Cause and that the termination was a retaliation for whistleblowing by Mr. Peterman in connection with certain of our prior financial and accounting practices. Mr. Peterman claims he is owed direct contractual damages in an amount in excess of $6,000,000 and consequential damages for injury to his professional reputation in excess of $35,000,000.

Leases · 4,394 characters as filed
"Leases Our leases historically relate to the leasing of facilities and equipment. In accordance with FASB ASC 842 - ""Leases"" (""ASC 842""), we determine at inception whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease and whether the lease should be classified as an operating or a financing lease. At lease commencement, we recognize a right-of-use (""ROU"") asset and lease liability based on the present value of the future lease payments over the estimated lease term. We elected to not recognize a ROU asset or lease liability for any leases with terms of twelve months or less. Instead, for such short-term leases, we recognize lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Certain of our leases include options to extend the term of the lease or to terminate the lease early. When it is reasonably certain that we will exercise a renewal option or will not exercise a termination option, we include the impact of exercising or not exercising such option, respectively, in the estimate of the lease term. As our lease agreements do not explicitly state the discount rate implicit in the lease, we use our incremental borrowing rate (""IBR"") on the commencement date to calculate the present value of future lease payments. Such IBR represents our estimated rate of interest to borrow on a collateralized basis over a term commensurate with the expected lease term. Some of our leases include payments that are based on the Consumer Price Index (""CPI"") or other similar indices. …

Cost Reduction and Related Restructuring Activities In fiscal 2025, in connection with our transformation strategy, we implemented multiple reductions in force throughout our organization and in all of our segments. Inclusive of actions taken in August 2025 (i.e., the start of our fiscal 2026), such reductions approximated 23% of our workforce as of July 31, 2024, or approximately $47,000,000 in annualized labor costs. Related to these activities, in fiscal 2025, we recorded $3,633,000 of severance costs within selling, general and administrative expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations . After net payments of $3,900,000 during fiscal 2025, our severance liability as of July 31, 2024 decreased from $1,029,000 to $762,000 as of July 31, 2025. At July 31, 2025, we had approximately 1,385 employees (including contractors), compared to 1,676 as of July 31, 2024. As of the issuance date, we had approximately 1,347 employees (including temporary employees and contractors), which reflects the completion of a reduction in force within our Allerium segment in August 2025. We recorded severance costs of $2,616,000 and $3,872,000 during fiscal 2024 and 2023, respectively.

"Segment Information Reportable operating segments are determined based on Comtechs management approach. The management approach, as defined by FASB ASC 280 ""Segment Reporting"" (""ASC 280"") is based on the way that the CODM organizes the segments within an enterprise for making decisions about resources to be allocated and assessing their performance. On January 13, 2025, the Board of Directors appointed Kenneth H. Traub as President and Chief Executive Officer in addition to his role as Chairman. Mr. Traub is our CODM for purposes of ASC 280. Our two reportable operating segments are described below. Our Satellite and Space Communications reportable operating segment is organized into four technology areas: satellite modem and amplifier technologies, troposcatter technologies, cybersecurity training (formerly, known as government services) and space components. This segment offers customers: satellite ground infrastructure technologies, services and system integration that facilitate the transmission of voice, video and data over GEO, MEO and LEO satellite constellations, including traveling wave tube power amplifiers, satellite modems, VSAT platforms and frequency converters; over-the-horizon microwave solutions that can transmit digitized voice, video, and data over distances up to 200 miles using the troposphere and diffraction; advanced cybersecurity training in support of U.S. government and certain commercial and university customers; and procurement and supply chai …

Share-based compensation · 10,776 characters as filed
"Stock-Based Compensation Overview In December 2023, our stockholders approved the Comtech Telecommunications Corp. 2023 Equity and Incentive Plan (the 2023 Plan), which replaced the Amended and Restated 2000 Stock Incentive Plan. Under the 2023 Plan, the initial number of shares of common stock available for all awards, other than substitute awards granted in connection with a corporate transaction, was 1,669,683 shares of common stock plus certain expired or cancelled awards recycled back into the 2023 Plan. On January 13, 2025 and March 9, 2026, our stockholders approved an amendment to the 2023 Plan to increase the number of available shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 2023 Plan by 2,195,000 and 2,800,000 shares, respectively. Accordingly, under the terms of the 2023 Plan, as amended, the maximum number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance is equal to 6,664,683 shares, including 69,683 shares from the 2000 Stock Incentive Plan. We issue stock-based awards to certain of our employees and our Board of Directors pursuant to the 2023 Plan, as amended and/or restated from time to time, and our 2001 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended and/or restated from time to time (the ""ESPP""), and recognize related stock-based compensation in our condensed consolidated financial statements. The 2023 Plan provides for the granting to employees and consultants of Comtech (including prospective employees and consultants): (i) incentive and non-qualifi …

Fair value · 3,990 characters as filed
"Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments Using the fair value hierarchy described in FASB ASC 820 "" Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,"" we valued our cash and cash equivalents using Level 1 inputs that were based on quoted market prices. We believe that the carrying amounts of our other current financial assets (such as accounts receivable) and other current liabilities (including accounts payable, accrued expenses and the current portion of long-term debt) approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturities. Additionally, the carrying amount of the non-current portion of our Credit Facility approximated its fair value due to the variable interest rates and pricing grid related to such debt. Level 3 inputs 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. As further discussed in Note (9) - Credit Facility, we used Level 3 inputs to value the warrants issued to lenders in connection with our Credit Facility. As of April 30, 2026, we determined the fair value of such warrants based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following estimates: exercise price of $0.10; risk free rate of 4.0%; volatility of 65.0%; expected life of 5.1 years; and dividen …

Income taxes · 3,597 characters as filed
"Income Taxes Our effective tax rate (including discrete tax items) for the three months ended April 30, 2026 was (58.0)%, compared to (5.6)% for the three months ended April 30, 2025. Our effective tax rate (including discrete tax items) for the nine months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025 was (5.5)% and nominal, respectively. In addition to discrete items recorded during each respective period, the change in rates also reflects changes in expected product and geographical mix. For purposes of determining our estimated annual effective tax rate (""AETR"") to apply to earnings from continuing operations for fiscal 2026, the change in fair value of warrants and derivatives and CEO transition costs are considered significant, unusual or infrequently occurring discrete tax items and were excluded from the computation of such AETR. During the three and nine months ended April 30, 2026, we recorded net discrete tax expense of $1,084,000 and $841,000, respectively, primarily due to the establishment of a valuation allowance on certain net deferred tax assets associated with our Canadian operations, offset in part by the reversal of tax contingencies no longer required due to the expiration of applicable statute of limitations. During the three and nine months ended April 30, 2025, we recorded net discrete tax benefits of $498,000 and $683,000, respectively, primarily related to proxy solicitation costs and CEO transition costs. At April 30, 2026 and July 31, 2025, total unrecognized t …

Leases · 4,688 characters as filed
"Leases Our leases historically relate to the leasing of facilities and equipment. In accordance with FASB ASC 842 - ""Leases"" (""ASC 842""), we determine at inception whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease and whether the lease should be classified as an operating or a financing lease. At lease commencement, we recognize a right-of-use (""ROU"") asset and lease liability based on the present value of the future lease payments over the estimated lease term. We elected to not recognize a ROU asset or lease liability for any leases with terms of twelve months or less. Instead, for such short-term leases, we recognize lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Certain of our leases include options to extend the term of the lease or to terminate the lease early. When it is reasonably certain that we will exercise a renewal option or will not exercise a termination option, we include the impact of exercising or not exercising such option, respectively, in the estimate of the lease term. As our lease agreements do not explicitly state the discount rate implicit in the lease, we use our incremental borrowing rate (""IBR"") on the commencement date to calculate the present value of future lease payments. Such IBR represents our estimated rate of interest to borrow on a collateralized basis over a term commensurate with the expected lease term. Some of our leases include payments that are based on the Consumer Price Index (""CPI"") or other similar indices. …

"Adoption of Accounting Standards and Updates We are required to prepare our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with the FASB ASC, which is the source for all authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which are commonly referred to as ""GAAP."" The FASB ASC is subject to updates by the FASB, which are known as Accounting Standards Updates (""ASUs""). The following FASB ASUs have been issued and incorporated into the FASB ASC and have not yet been adopted by us: FASB ASU No. 2023-09, which among other things, enhances and establishes new income tax disclosure requirements, in addition to modifying and eliminating certain existing requirements. Most notably this ASU requires greater disaggregation of information in the effective tax rate reconciliation, including the inclusion of both percentages and amounts, specific categories, and additional information for reconciling items meeting a quantitative threshold defined by the guidance. Additionally, disclosures of income taxes paid and income tax expense must be disaggregated by federal, state and foreign taxes, with income taxes paid further disaggregated for individual jurisdictions that represent 5 percent or more of total income taxes paid. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 (our fiscal 2026), with early adoption permitted. We are evaluating the impact of this ASU on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and disclosures. FASB ASU No. 20 …

"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. Under ASC 606, we follow a five-step model to: (1) identify the contract with our customer; (2) identify our performance obligations in our contract; (3) determine the transaction price for our contract; (4) allocate the transaction price to our performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue using one of the following two methods: Over time - We recognize revenue using the over time method when control transfers to the customer over the contractual period of performance. This generally occurs when we enter into a long-term contract relating to the design, development or manufacture of complex equipment or technology platforms to a buyers specification (or to provide services related to the performance of such contracts), for which we have determined that the customer controls the asset as it is created or there is no alternative use, as defined in ASC 606. Transfer of control is typically supported by contract clauses which allow our customers to unilaterally terminate a contract for convenience, pay for costs incurred plus a reasonable profit and take control of work-in-process. Work-in-process includes components for which we have commenced the manufacturing or integration process and obtained the right to …
