Gilat Satellite Networks: Better Business, But Less Upside Than Before

Gilat Satellite Networks (GILT) is upgraded to 'Buy' as growth broadens across commercial, defense, and Peru segments, with 2025 revenue up 48% year-over-year. GILT's valuation is no longer cheap but remains reasonable relative to its 47.9% revenue growth, trading at 2.9x sales and 22.7x EV/EBITDA. Execution risk centers on Stellar Blu margin recovery and working capital management; GAAP gross margin fell to 28% and Q4 operating cash flow was negative.
