"While the overall economic environment had an adverse impact on our business in fiscal 2010, we have recently begun to implement significant and meaningful strategic and operational changes that will allow Aviat Networks to stabilize revenues and form a foundation - based on our core competencies - upon which we can resume profitable growth," said Chuck Kissner, Chairman and CEO of Aviat Networks. "In addition to implementing our restructuring plan, as we had announced, we have finalized several aspects of our strategic plan. Where the restructuring plan reduces costs, streamlines our business and restores future profitability, our strategic plan refocuses our programs, optimizes our product portfolio and prioritizes key markets where we have a competitive advantage to drive long-term sustainable revenue growth."

"During the quarter, as planned, we implemented a change to our revenue recognition standards, ASU 2009-13 and ASU 2009-14," said Tom Cronan, CFO of Aviat Networks. "In addition, we incurred several charges totaling $83.5 million, including $75.9 million related to intangible assets and property, plant and equipment and software impairment charges. With these changes and charges behind us, we can focus on executing our strategic and operational plan for fiscal 2011. With our new operating model, strong balance sheet and consistent cash flow generation, we believe we are well-positioned to resume profitable growth once our restructuring actions are complete."

Strategic Plan

The Company has identified several elements of its going-forward strategic plan which will be complete in September. It will:

  • Accelerate innovation in wireless transmission, including microwave backhaul, in order to extend its performance leadership over competitive solutions
  • Realign its WiMAX business to become more complementary with and integral to its wireless transmission offerings
  • Expand its solutions orientation, increasing focus on its services business, specifically network operations management and network design and installation

Operational Objectives for 2011

The Company has established four key objectives for fiscal 2011. They are to:

  • improve operational efficiency,
  • improve its ability to serve its customers as a strategic vendor,
  • focus on innovation in the Company's areas of core competency,
  • and achieve profitability post-restructuring.

Outlook

Based on current backlog, business trends and taking into account operational changes and the uncertain macro-economic environment, we believe revenue will be in the range of $100 million to $120 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2011.

Non-GAAP Measures and Comparative Financial Information

Aviat Networks, Inc. reports information in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). Management of Aviat Networks monitors revenues, cost of product sales and services, research and development expenses, selling and administrative expenses, operating income or loss, tax expense or benefit, net income or loss, and net income or loss per share on a non-GAAP basis for planning and forecasting results in future periods, and may use these measures for some management compensation purposes. These measures exclude certain costs, expenses and gains as shown on the attached GAAP reconciliation table. As a result, management is presenting these non-GAAP measures in addition to results reported in accordance with GAAP to better communicate underlying operational and financial performance in each period. Management believes these non-GAAP 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 given period. Management also believes that these non-GAAP measures enhance the ability of an investor to analyze trends in Aviat Networks' business and to better understand our performance.

Aviat Networks' management does not, nor does it suggest that investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Aviat Networks presents such non-GAAP financial measures in reporting its financial results to provide investors with an additional tool to evaluate the Company's financial performance. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP are included in the tables below.

     Class B common stock outstanding during fiscal year 2010. Effective
     November 19, 2009, under a change to our certificate of incorporation
     approved by shareholders, all shares of our Class A common stock were

     authorized, issued or outstanding.

AVIAT NETWORKS, INC. (FORMERLY HARRIS STRATEX NETWORKS, INC.)

Quarter and Fiscal Year Ended July 2, 2010 Summaries

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND REGULATION G DISCLOSURE

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP), we provide additional measures of revenue, cost of product sales and services, gross margin, research and development expenses, selling and administrative expenses, operating income (loss), income (loss) before income taxes, income taxes, net income (loss), and net income (loss) per basic and diluted share adjusted to exclude certain costs, charges, gains and losses, including such amounts related to our merger with Stratex Networks. Aviat Networks, Inc. ("we" or "our") believes 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. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP follows.
