As we grow our business and further scale our capacity to meet
near-term demand, we are prioritizing operational efficiency to

dynamics, improve customer satisfaction and maximize our
profitability.
During the first quarter we secured orders and long-term

million, increasing our backlog and LTA Value of over

drive continued momentum in our business and support our revenue
growth plan for the rest of 2024 and for years to come."
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in
accordance with GAAP, the Company also presents Adjusted
EBITDA. The adjustments to the Company's GAAP results are
made with the intent of providing both management and investors a
more complete understanding of the Company's underlying operational
results, trends and performance. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as
net income excluding the impact of: the Company's share in results
of affiliated companies, share-based compensation, taxes on income,
financial (expenses) income, net, and depreciation and
amortization. Adjusted EBITDA, however, should not be considered as
alternative to net income and operating income for the period and
may not be indicative of the historic operating results of the
Company; nor it is meant to be predictive of potential future
results. Adjusted EBITDA is not measure of financial performance
under generally accepted accounting principles and may not be
comparable to other similarly titled measures for other companies.
See reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA below.
