Free Cash Flow generation remained very strong during the quarter, with backlog reaching a record level, exceeding $30 billion for the first time.Earlier today, we announced a significant European contract win, further strengthening our position as a trusted strategic partner to customers worldwide and reinforcing our ability to support their evolving defense needs and challenges.Our strategic positioning reflects our evolution into a fully integrated end-to-end defense provider across land, sea and air.

Land revenues increased by 27%, mainly due to ammunition and munition sales in Israel and Europe. Elbit Systems of America revenues increased by 5%, mainly due to the increase in sales of Night-Vision Systems, partially offset by the decrease in sales of medical devices.For distribution of revenues by segments and geographic regions see the tables on page 9.GAAP gross profit in the first quarter of 2026 was $552.1 million (25.2% of revenues), as compared to $454.3 million (24.0% of revenues) in the first quarter of 2025.

Cash flow provided by operating activities in the first quarter of 2026 was $281.0 million, as compared to cash flow provided by operating activities of $183.6 million in the first quarter of 2025. The cash flow in the first quarter of 2026 was affected mainly by the strong increase in net income and an increase in contract liabilities.* see page 10Impact of the recent conflicts in the Middle East on the Company:The war which began on October 7, 2023, continued throughout most of 2025, with ceasefires agreed to between Israel and Lebanon involving the conflict with Hezbollah in November 2024, and, after an intensified period of conflict that lasted 12 days, a ceasefire was declared with Iran in June 2025. A ceasefire with Hamas was agreed to in January 2025, and a subsequent ceasefire with Hamas was agreed to in October 2025. On February 28, 2026, the U.S. and Israel launched a joint attack on Iran named "Operation Epic Fury" by the U.S., and "Operation Roaring Lion" by Israel, targeting key Iranian officials and targets. Iran launched attacks against Israel and at U.S. military bases across the region, including strikes in Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Jordan. On March 2, 2026 Hezbollah launched an attack on Israel. After an intensified period of conflict that lasted 40 days, a two-week ceasefire between the United States and Iran, which was subsequently extended, took effect on April 8, 2026, and a separate ten–day cessation of hostilities between Israel and Lebanon, which was subsequently extended, began on April 16, 2026. The current situation remains uncertain, including in light of violations of the cessation of hostilities.Since the commencement of the war and the escalation of conflicts in the Middle East, Elbit Systems has experienced a continued material increase in the demand for its products and solutions from the Israel Ministry of Defense (IMOD) compared to the demand levels prior to the war. Such increased demand may continue and could generate material additional orders to the Company.As a result of the war and the other conflicts in the Middle East, some of Elbit Systems' operations have experienced disruptions due to supply chain and operational constraints, including among others increases in transportation costs and delays due to factors such as the Houthi movement attacks on shipping in the Red Sea, material and component shortages and elevated prices, employee call-ups for reserve duty, limitations imposed by some countries on engagement with Israel and attacks on some of Elbit Systems' global facilities by anti-Israeli organizations.Elbit Systems has taken various steps to protect its employees worldwide, to support increased production, to increase raw material and component inventories, to mitigate supply chain disruptions and to maintain business continuity. Following the ceasefire agreements described above, these operational effects on the Company have been reduced, however, such effects on the Company's performance could increase again, depending on future developments that are difficult to predict at this time, including the duration and scope of these conflicts and the continuity and stability of the ceasefire arrangements.Recent Events:On April 6, 2026, the Company announced, further to its announcement from December 16, 2025, that as part of an agreement between the Israeli Ministry of Defense and the Hellenic Ministry of National Defense, it was awarded a contract worth approximately $750 million (€650 million) to supply Precise & Universal Launching System (PULS) artillery rocket systems to the Hellenic Armed Forces. The contract will be performed over a period of 4 years and will include an additional ten-year period of follow-on support.On April 22, 2026, the Company announced that during Operation "Roaring Lion", the Company was awarded several contracts in an aggregate amount of approximately $200 million for the supply of advanced airborne munitions to the Israel Ministry of Defense (IMOD).On May 12, 2026, the Company announced that its U.S. subsidiary, Elbit Systems of America – Night Vision LLC ("Elbit Systems of America"), received a delivery order valued at approximately $212 million, for the continued production of the Enhanced Night Vision Goggle - Binocular (ENVG-B) systems for the U.S. Army. Deliveries under the award will take place through 2028.On May 20, 2026, the Company announced that S&P Global Ratings Maalot Ltd., an Israeli rating agency ("S&P Global Ratings"), issued its rating report regarding Elbit Systems (the "Rating Report"). In its Rating Report, S&P Global Ratings raised its long term rating to "ilAAA" (on local scaling) with a stable outlook regarding the Company's Series B, C and D Notes, and reaffirmed its short term rating of "ilA-1+" (on local scaling).On May 26, 2026, the Company announced that it has been awarded a contract valued at approximately $1.4 billion by a European customer for extensive military modernization programs. The contract will be performed over a period of five years.Dividend:The Board of Directors declared a dividend of $1.00 per share. The dividend's record date is June 23, 2026. The dividend will be paid on July 6, 2026, after deduction of withholding tax, at the rate of 16.8%.

$7,938.6 Non-GAAP financial data:The following Non-GAAP financial data, including Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP net income attributable to the Company's shareholders, 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, Non-identified costs in respect to special circumstances, 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 Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP operating income, and Non-GAAP 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 Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP operating income, and Non-GAAP 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 Non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share attributed to Company's shareholders 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 Non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share attributable to Company's shareholders 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.

Operating cash flows in 2025 were affected mainly by the increase in contract liabilities offset by the increase in inventories and trade receivables.* see page 15Impact of the recent conflicts in the Middle East on the Company.The war which began on October 7, 2023, continued throughout most of 2025, with ceasefires agreed to between Israel and Lebanon involving the conflict with Hezbollah in November 2024, and, after an intensified period of conflict that lasted 12 days, a ceasefire was declared with Iran in June 2025. A ceasefire with Hamas was agreed to in January 2025, and a subsequent ceasefire with Hamas was agreed to in October 2025. On February 28, 2026, Israel and the U.S. launched a joint attack on Iran named "Operation Roaring Lion" by Israel and "Operation Epic Fury" by the U.S., targeting key Iranian officials and targets. Iran launched attacks against Israel and at U.S. military bases across the region, including strikes in Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Jordan. On March 2, 2026 Hezbollah launched an attack on Israel. The current situation remains uncertain.Since the commencement of the war and the escalation of conflicts in the Middle East, Elbit Systems has experienced a continued material increase in the demand for its products and solutions from the Israel Ministry of Defense (IMOD) compared to the demand levels prior to the war. Such increased demand may continue and could generate material additional orders to the Company.As a result of the war and the other conflicts in the Middle East, some of Elbit Systems' operations have experienced disruptions due to supply chain and operational constraints, including among others increases in transportation costs and delays due to factors such as the Houthi movement attacks on shipping in the Red Sea, material and component shortages and elevated prices, employee call-ups for reserve duty, limitations imposed by some countries on engagement with Israel and attacks on some of Elbit Systems' global facilities by anti-Israeli organizations.Elbit Systems has taken various steps to protect its employees worldwide, to support increased production, to increase raw material and component inventories, to mitigate supply chain disruptions and to maintain business continuity. Following the ceasefire agreements described above, these operational effects on the Company have been reduced, however, in light of the recent escalation of conflicts involving Iran and Hezbollah, such effects on the Company's performance could increase again, depending on future developments that are difficult to predict at this time, including the duration and scope of these conflicts. Recent Events:On November 19, 2025, the Company announced that it has been awarded contracts from the Israel Ministry of Defense in an aggregate amount of approximately $210 million for the upgrade of Merkava Main Battle Tanks (MBTs). The contracts will be performed over a period of six years.On December 16, 2025, the Company announced that it was notified that the Hellenic Parliament and KYSEA (Government Council for National Security) have approved a budget for the purchase of the Company's PULS rocket artillery system for the Hellenic Armed Forces. Considering the above, Elbit Systems anticipates receiving a contract in an amount that is material to the Company. The anticipated contract award is contingent, among others, on completion of commercial negotiations with the Hellenic Ministry of National Defense.On January 12, 2026, the Company announced that it has been awarded contracts totaling approximately $275 million, for the supply of advanced airborne self-protection electronic warfare (EW) suite, including its Direct Infra-Red Counter-Measure (DIRCM) system, to a country in the Asia-Pacific region. The contracts will be performed over a period of 5 years.On January 26, 2026, the Company announced, following the U.S. Government's publication from September 29, 2025 of an award to General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems (GD-OTS) of an order for the Bradley Fighting vehicle Active Protection System (APS), that Elbit Systems has been awarded by GD-OTS a $228 million contract to supply the Company's Iron Fist APS. The contract will be executed over a period of three years.On February 17, 2026, the Company announced that it was awarded several contracts with a total value of approximately $435 million from an international customer.

$ 489.1 * 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, non-indemnified costs in respect to special circumstances, 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. Once the special circumstances in Israel ends, the company will discontinue the reconciliation of non–indemnified costs. 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.
