HAIFA, Israel , March 5,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Elbit Systems
Ltd. (NASDAQ: ESLT) (TASE: ESLT) ("Elbit Systems"
or the "Company") announced today that it expects to record
non-cash expenses of approximately $52
million in the fourth quarter of 2023. The expenses are
related to the write-off of inventory due to the closing of an
underperforming subsidiary with limited synergies to the Company,
and of contract assets related to a discontinued project managed
under the subsidiary.
Approximately $34 million of the
expenses are related to an uncollectible balance of contract assets
under the discontinued project. These expenses will be recorded in
the "general and administrative" line item in the consolidated
statement of income.
Approximately $18 million of the
expenses are related to the restructuring and discontinuing of the
subsidiary's activities. The restructuring expenses will be
recorded in the "cost of revenues" line item in the consolidated
statement of income and will be eliminated in the non-GAAP results
due to their non-recurring nature.
The overall impact of these expenses on the Company's financial
results for the fourth quarter and full year 2023 will be included
in the Company's earnings release, which is planned to be released
in March 2024.
