Management Comment:
Bezhalel (Butzi) Machlis, President and CEO of Elbit Systems, commented:
'Elbit Systems announces today another set of strong financial results posting double-digit growth in revenues, operating income and earnings per share for the fourth consecutive quarter, as numerous global conflicts serve to increase defense budgets. Revenues grew by an impressive 22% reflecting the increased demand for our products and solutions globally. Backlog continued to grow during the quarter and stands at over $23 billion up 14% from Q1 2024. Free cash flow generated during the quarter stood at $161 million. We believe Elbit is well positioned to capture and benefit from the opportunities of increasing defense budgets globally and particularly in Europe with our well-established subsidiaries across the continent as evident in our published contract wins. We are continuing to invest in increasing our production capacity and optimizing our supply chains in order to address our backlog and the high demand for our products. These results would not be possible without our dedicated employees worldwide, for which I am extremely grateful.'
First quarter 2025 results:
Revenues in the first quarter of 2025 were $1,895.8 million, as compared to $1,554.0 million in the first quarter of 2024.
Aerospace revenues increased by 20% in the first quarter of 2025, as compared to the first quarter of 2024 mainly due to increased Precision Guided Munition (PGM) sales in Israel and Asia Pacific. C4I and Cyber revenues increased by 12% mainly due to radio systems and command and control systems sales in Israel and Europe. ISTAR and EW revenues increased by 4% mainly due to Electro-Optic systems sales in Europe. Land revenues increased by 48% due to ammunition and munition sales in Israel and Europe. Elbit Systems of America revenues increased by 18% due to the increase in Warfighters systems and medical instrumentation sales.
For distribution of revenues by segments and geographic regions see the tables on page 9.
GAAP gross profit in the first quarter of 2025 was $454.3 million (24.0% of revenues), as compared to $374.1 million (24.1% of revenues) in the first quarter of 2024. Non-GAAP(*) gross profit amounted to $460.6 million (24.3% of revenues) in the first quarter of 2025, as compared to $383.4 million (24.7% of revenues) in the first quarter of 2024.
Research and development expenses, net were $114.3 million (6.1% of revenues) in the first quarter of 2025, as compared to $98.5 million (6.3% of revenues) in the first quarter of 2024.
Marketing and selling expenses, net were $100.9 million (5.3% of revenues) in the first quarter of 2025, as compared to $89.1 million (5.7% of revenues) in the first quarter of 2024.
General and administrative expenses, net were $89.4 million (4.7% of revenues) in the first quarter of 2025, as compared to $81.2 million (5.2% of revenues) in the first quarter of 2024.

Financial expenses, net were $39.0 million in the first quarter of 2025, as compared to $31.2 million in the first quarter of 2024. The increase in financial expenses during the first quarter of 2025 was mainly due to hedging transactions and the net effect of changes in the exchange rates of different currencies in which the Company operates.
Taxes on income were $16.1 million in the first quarter of 2025, as compared to $11.6 million in the first quarter of 2024.
GAAP net income attributable to the Company's shareholders in the first quarter of 2025 was $107.1 million (5.6% of revenues), as compared to $73.7 million (4.7% of revenues) in the first quarter of 2024. The increase in net income attributable to the Company's shareholders in the first quarter of 2025 was in line with the increase in the Company's activity and order backlog. Non-GAAP(*) net income attributable to the Company's shareholders in the first quarter of 2025 was $117.2 million (6.2% of revenues), as compared to $80.7 million (5.2% of revenues) in the first quarter of 2024.
GAAP diluted earnings per share attributable to the Company's shareholders in the first quarter of 2025 were $2.35, as compared to $1.65 in the first quarter of 2024. Non-GAAP(*) diluted net earnings per share attributable to the Company's shareholders were $2.57 for the first quarter of 2025, as compared to $1.81 for the first quarter of 2024.
The Company's order backlog as of March 31, 2025 totaled $23.1 billion. Approximately 66% of the current backlog is attributable to orders outside of Israel. Approximately 51% of the order backlog is scheduled to be performed during the remainder of 2025 and 2026.
Cash flow provided by operating activities in the first quarter of 2025 was $183.6 million, as compared to cash flow used in operating activities of $6.4 million in the first quarter of 2024. The cash flow in the first quarter of 2025 was affected mainly by an increase in net income and an increase in contract liabilities, which were offset by increases in inventories and trade receivables.

Impact of the 'Swords of Iron' War on the Company:
The 'Swords of Iron' war, which began on October 7, 2023, following the Hamas terrorists attack on Israeli civilian and military targets, followed by attacks from Iran and other terrorist organizations on different fronts including Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthi movement in Yemen and rebel militia in Syria, is still on-going, albeit in varied intensity levels.
Since the commencement of the war, Elbit Systems has experienced a 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. At the same time, the Company and its subsidiaries around the world continued to conduct their business in international markets. Subject to further developments, which are difficult to predict, the IMOD's increased demand for the Company's products and solutions may continue and could generate material additional orders to the Company.
The majority of the Company's facilities in Israel continue to operate uninterrupted. 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, limitations imposed by some countries on exports to Israel and attacks on some of Elbit Systems' global facilities by anti-Israeli organizations.
Elbit Systems has taken a number of steps to protect the safety and security of its employees in Israel and abroad, to support increased production, mitigate existing and potential supply chain disruptions and to maintain business continuity, including increased monitoring of global supply chains to identify delays, shortages and bottlenecks, rescheduling deliveries to certain customers as necessary and maintaining increased inventories. As of March 31, 2025, the percentage of employees called up for reserve duty was approximately 3%. This rate could fluctuate depending on future developments.
The extent of the effects of the war on the Company's performance will depend on future developments that are difficult to predict at this time, including its duration and scope. We continue to monitor the situation closely.
Dividend:
The Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.60 per share. The dividend's record date is June 24, 2025. The dividend will be paid on July 7, 2025, after deduction of withholding tax, at the rate of 16.8%.

* 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, uncompensated costs related to 'Swords of Iron' war, 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.

Bursa Malaysia Ends Higher, Tracking Most Regional Markets
By Zarul Effendi Razali KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 18 (Bernama) -- Bursa Malaysia closed higher today, tracking the mostly positive performance of regional markets, supported by continued buying in selected heavyweights, a dealer said. At 5 pm, the FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) rose 8.62 points, or 0.55 per cent, to close at 1,584.96 from Friday's close of 1,576.34. The benchmark index opened 1.92 points firmer at 1,578.26, and moved between 1,575.48 and 1,588.61 throughout the day. The broader market, however, was slightly negative, with decliners leading advancers 514 to 491, while 469 counters were unchanged, 1,112 untraded and six suspended. Turnover rose to 2.54 billion units worth RM2.72 billion from 2.01 billion units worth RM2.03 billion on Friday. Rakuten Trade Sdn Bhd vice-president of equity research Thong Pak Leng said the FBM KLCI resumes its uptrend after two days of profit-taking as sentiment continues to improve. "Key regional indices were higher, buoyed by signs of progress in US-Russia talks over a potential ceasefire in Ukraine. Meanwhile, investors are closely watching for any signals on US interest rates from the Federal Reserve's annual retreat in Jackson Hole. 'On the domestic front, we remain optimistic on the positive developments in improving geopolitical conditions. The benchmark index is currently retesting the 1,585 resistance level and closed the session at 1,584.96, just below this immediate threshold,' he told Bernama.

Rubber Market Ends Lower Amid Mixed Regional Rubber Market Performances
WORLD By Engku Shariful Azni Engku Ab Latif KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 18 (Bernama) -- The Malaysian rubber market closed lower on Monday, weighed down by mixed performances in the regional rubber futures markets, a dealer said. She said market sentiment was influenced by ongoing uncertainties surrounding the US economic outlook and the escalating Middle East crisis. "Nevertheless, further losses were limited by rising crude oil prices amid optimism over the US-Russia dialogue on a Ukraine ceasefire," she told Bernama today. She said Thailand's meteorological agency warned of heavy rains and accumulations that may cause flash floods and overflows from Aug 17-18 and Aug 22-23. At 3 pm, the Malaysian Rubber Board reported that the price of Standard Malaysian Rubber (SMR) 20 was down 7.5 sen to 729 sen per kilogramme (kg), while latex in bulk slid 3.5 sen to 568.50 sen per kg. -- BERNAMA

Indonesia's 2026 budget ripe with politics, thinner on strategy
JAKARTA: A lack of satisfying answers on how to reach growth goals set forth in the freshly unveiled 2026 state budget has led economists to conclude that the fiscal document is based more on political ambition rather than on technocratic calculation. Centre of Economic and Law Studies (CELIOS) executive director Bhima Yudhistira Adhinegara told The Jakarta Post on Saturday (Aug 16) that the targets set in the budget plan 'overshoot and require strenuous effort' to attain. 'It's ripe with political aspects to fulfill the populist programmes as opposed to being based on technocratic calculation, which includes fiscal discipline,' said Bhima. One of the targets highlighted by Bhima was for gross domestic product (GDP) growth to accelerate to 5.4 per cent, which he doubted the country would attain due to external pressure, sluggish global commodity markets and a lack of domestic driving forces. The last time Indonesia registered such strong GDP growth in a full year was in 2013 with 5.56 per cent, and it has mostly hovered around the five percent mark since. In 2022, a full-year growth rate of 5.31 percent did get close to next year's target, but that was largely attributed to a base effect, because it followed unusually slow growth in 2021, when the national economy was still suffering from the coronavirus pandemic shock. The government's 5.2 per cent GDP growth target for 2025 already assumes a significant speed-up in the second half, after year-on-year (yoy) rates of 4.87 per cent and 5.12 per cent, respectively, in quarters one and two, yet even from that level another big step-up would be needed to reach 5.6 per cent next year. Institute for Development of Economics and Finance (Indef) economist Eko Listiyanto, likewise, said the budget draft was 'a political document' that served the purpose of exerting optimism 'by setting higher targets'; it was not solely technocratic in nature. He said in a press briefing on Saturday that attaining the growth target 'is not easy, but the opportunity is still there', before mentioning a range of thorough overhauls that could place the target within reach. Priority would have to be given to creating jobs and 'fixing' people's spending power that have been weakening over the past years, said Eko. Moreover, the government would need to 'optimise' the export market, encourage investment and make the bureaucracy more effective. Asked about the course to reach the growth target in a press conference on Friday, Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati answered: 'We will look for sources of economic growth.' She only mentioned 'improving the business climate' to attract more investment as one of the sources and suggested pursuing that effort by rewarding regional governments with incentives if they made their jurisdiction more attractive for investors. There was a similar lack of illustrated strategy regarding the ambitious state revenue target, which has been set at Rp 3.14 quadrillion (US$194 billion), or 9.8 per cent more than the latest projection of Rp 2.86 quadrillion for this year. To realise that income next year, Sri Mulyani revealed that tax revenue would need to grow by 13.5 per cent yoy, which was 'rather high and ambitious'. Nevertheless, she insisted the target was achievable, given the budget's GDP growth and inflation assumptions of 5.4 and 2.5 per cent, respectively, a combination that would bring the tax buoyancy to between seven to nine per cent. Tax buoyancy is an indicator that connects the GDP growth with tax revenue that arrives at a conclusion whether the tax is buoyant or not. Tax is considered buoyant when the revenue increases proportionately to or more than the economic growth. With the seven to nine per cent buoyancy, Sri Mulyani said the government's 'extra effort' could be focused on pursuing another five per cent, which could be achieved through various means: 'We still see room for improvement.' The senior economist stressed that there would be no regulatory changes to pursue the ambitious tax collection. The path the government planned to pursue instead was 'a focus on internal reform', such as by fixing flaws in the Coretax system. In search of increased revenue, the government is also eying the shadow economy and illegal activity overlooked in tax collection in the past. President Prabowo Subianto said in a state budget address on Friday that the government had taken control of 3.1 million hectares of illegal oil palm plantations. Neither the President nor Sri Mulyani explained how this would reshape the revenue collection, but the latter said without elaborating that it 'created a new database'. Syafruddin Karimi, an economist from Andalas University, wrote in an analysis on Saturday that 'an excessively high tax target is a double-edged sword' that reflected the government's optimism in the national tax base but might result in spending cuts should realisation fall short of expectations. 'History reveals that overestimation of tax [income] frequently plays out with realisation falling short. Under those circumstances, the state budget no longer is a countercyclical tool but merely an administrative instrument that follows the economic tide,' said Syafruddin. - The Jakarta Post/ANN
