Second quarter 2024 results:

Aerospace revenues were similar to the revenues in the second quarter of 2023. C4I and Cyber revenues increased by 11% in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to the second quarter of 2023 mainly due to radio systems sales. ISTAR and EW revenues increased by 9% mainly due to Electronic Warfare and Electro-Optic systems sales in Israel and Asia-Pacific. Land revenues increased by 37% due to the increase in ammunition and munition sales in Israel. Elbit Systems of America revenues increased by 11% due to the increase in Maritime and Warfighter systems.

Impact of the “Swords of Iron” War on the Company:
On October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and conducted a series of brutal attacks on civilian and military targets. Hamas also launched extensive rocket attacks on the Israeli population and industrial centers located along Israel’s border with the Gaza Strip and in many other parts of Israel. Israel has also been attacked by other terrorist organizations on different fronts, including from Lebanon, which have prompted military responses from Israel. Following the attacks, the State of Israel declared a state of war, which is ongoing.
Since the commencement of hostilities, Elbit Systems has experienced a material increased demand for our products and solutions from the Israel Ministry of Defense (IMOD) compared to the demand levels prior to the war. We have also increased our support to the IMOD, mainly through deliveries of our systems and the dedicated efforts of our employees. At the same time, the Company continues its activities in the international market including through its local subsidiaries. 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.
While the vast majority of our facilities in Israel continue to operate uninterrupted, some of our operations have experienced disruptions due to supply chain and operational constraints, the relocation of certain production lines, evacuation of employees and mobilization of our employees for reserve duty. The number of employees mobilized was approximately 6% as of June 30, 2024, and could fluctuate depending on future developments.
Elbit Systems has taken a number of steps to protect the safety and security of our employees, support our increased production, mitigate potential supply chain disruptions and maintain business continuity, among them relocation of production lines from facilities in areas of the country that have been evacuated to other facilities; recruitment of additional employees; increased monitoring of our global supply chain to identify delays, shortages and bottlenecks; reschedule of deliveries to certain of our customers as necessary; and increase of inventories.
The extent of the effects of the war on the Company’s performance will depend on future developments of the war that are difficult to predict at this time, including its duration and scope. We continue to monitor the situation closely.
* Non-GAAP financial data:
The following non-GAAP financial data, including Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted operating income, Adjusted net income, 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 Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted operating income, and Adjusted 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 Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted operating income, and Adjusted 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 Adjusted diluted earnings per share 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 adjusted diluted earnings per share 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.

Home Companion Robot Mobo to Debut Globally and Open Pre-orders as AiMOGA Showcases Its Robot Family at the 2026 OMODA & JAECOO International User Summit
Published

November 7, 2026By
WUHU, China, Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As AI becomes part of everyday family life, how will it transform the homes of the future? The 2026 OMODA & JAECOO International User Summit, co-presented by CHERY, OMODA|JAECOO, ICAUR, Lepas and AiMOGA, took place in Wuhu from October 19 to 24 under the theme “DRIVE TO THE NEXT VIBE.” During the summit, AiMOGA Robotics officially launched Mobo—its consumer-grade humanoid robot for home companionship—and opened global pre-orders. The launch took embodied AI into the home, extending proven automotive-grade technologies and supply-chain capabilities beyond vehicle manufacturing to a broader ecosystem of intelligent living.
Meet Mobo: A Thoughtful, Expressive and Caring Companion. A key highlight of the summit, Mobo makes its global debut with pre-orders opening worldwide. Having previously appeared at the World Robot Conference and the World Manufacturing Convention, it has already drawn strong interest. Powered by AiMOGA’s proprietary MoAgent AI brain, Mobo goes beyond rigid single-command responses: it independently breaks down complex instructions and plans long-horizon tasks, turning Q&A into goal-driven assistance. Designed for family life, it combines spatial perception with multimodal interaction—autonomous navigation, dynamic obstacle avoidance, and voice-plus-vision conversation that identifies objects and makes companionship feel natural. With a full-body motion system of 22 degrees of freedom, it delivers smooth movements and dance routines, remembers each family member’s habits and preferences, and builds in privacy protection from the outset—a companion blending advanced technology with warmth and care.
Bringing Automotive Expertise to Robotics. Unlike start-ups building from scratch, AiMOGA draws on the extensive automotive engineering experience and global R&D network of CHERY and its brands—OMODA|JAECOO, ICAUR and Lepas—adapting proven technologies, including high-precision environmental perception and automotive-specific large AI models, for robotics. During the summit, its full robot portfolio will appear in zones recreating real-world applications: police robots patrolling mock traffic settings, healthcare robots guiding visitors, Mornine acting as an AI presenter, the Argos Pro quadruped demonstrating following and load carrying, and Mobo offering hands-on demonstrations as pre-orders open. AiMOGA already operates robots across more than 100 use cases—from dealerships and retail to traffic management, security, education and healthcare—with cumulative deliveries exceeding 3,000 units across more than 60 countries and regions.
Beyond Automotive Manufacturing. As these brands move from vehicles into robotics, they extend accumulated R&D, supply-chain and manufacturing expertise to wider intelligent applications; automotive–robotics integration provides the industrial foundation, while the MoAgent brain supports understanding, planning and execution. Guided by the philosophy “In Somewhere, For Somewhere, Be Somewhere,” CHERY, OMODA|JAECOO, ICAUR, Lepas and AiMOGA are bringing intelligent technology into everyday life and delivering meaningful support to people worldwide.

CassTime Unveils AI-Driven “T+D Solution” to Tackle Data and Repair Bottlenecks in the Global Automotive Aftermarket
Published
4 hours agoon
November 7, 2026By
LAS VEGAS, Nov. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — At the recently concluded AAPEX 2026, more than 45,000 professionals from 128 countries and regions and over 2,500 exhibitors gathered in Las Vegas, a clear sign of sourcing demand across the global automotive aftermarket. At the same time, a long-standing industry challenge has become harder to ignore: as vehicle model counts keep climbing and model refresh cycles shorten, global repair networks are commonly facing difficulties in parts data matching, fragmented supply sources, low quotation efficiency, and insufficient repair technical capabilities.
In response to these bottlenecks, Li Li, CEO of International Business at CassTime, introduced an AI-driven “T+D Solution” at the 2026 CassTime Partner Conference. T refers to Digital Trade, which connects supply with overseas procurement demand through the CassChoice platform; D refers to an intelligent localized service platform, which uses PartGrid to bring parts matching, repair support, and insurance claims assessment capabilities to local markets. The solution has already been put into practical operation in markets such as Saudi Arabia.
Industry Bottlenecks: Data Matching and Repair Capability Are Global Challenges
Li Li noted that channel and market-access conditions vary significantly across regions: the Middle East has many new vehicle models and a growing number of supply channels; Brazil has a complex channel and market-access system; Central Asia’s supply channels are being restructured; and North America has mature certification and channel requirements for branded parts. The common challenges are concentrated in four areas: data matching, supply stability, quotation and delivery efficiency, and local repair service capability. Insufficient data leads to matching difficulties, fragmented demand leads to unstable supply, and local repair capabilities are difficult to build up quickly.
“After decades of development, the automotive aftermarket has formed a complete supply chain system, and CassTime has also built a digital system covering the entire value chain,” Li Li said. “We hope to translate proven digital practices into a holistic solution that can be implemented overseas, covering both parts and repair services.”
Li Li emphasized that China’s auto parts industry has been tempered through intense competition and has long built a comprehensive domestic supply chain. In particular, its parts SKU coverage for Chinese-brand vehicles is especially complete: Chinese vehicle models have a large installed base and rapid update and iteration cycles. Leveraging deep accumulation in the local market, CassTime has formed the industry’s most complete coverage in parts data, VIN decoding, and repair cases for Chinese-brand vehicles. This is also the foundation of the T+D Solution. Supported by this most complete Chinese-brand vehicle SKU database, wherever Chinese-brand vehicles go in the world, CassTime can bring along the parts supply and repair experience already proven in China, enabling overseas partners to share the best practices of China’s supply chain.
CassChoice: Digital Trade to Solve Supply-Demand Matching Challenges
In traditional procurement scenarios, when a customer submits demand for hundreds of thousands of SKUs, it usually requires manual order splitting, separate inquiries to multiple suppliers, quotation consolidation, and delivery in batches—a long and inefficient process. The CassChoice system can automatically break down demand, generate batch quotations, track order status, and output reports. The relevant data can also be used for demand tracking and analysis—a direct manifestation of using AI and digital tools to solve “difficult data matching and fragmented supply.”
According to CassTime, its overseas platform has accumulated more than 5 million SKUs—with particularly complete SKU data for Chinese-brand vehicles—and can generate quotes in seconds for more than 10,000 SKUs. On the supply side, CassChoice connects factories, brands, and distributors, helping overseas customers complete sourcing, procurement, and local delivery, and efficiently matching fragmented supply with fragmented demand on a digital platform.
PartGrid: AI Agents to Fill Local Repair Capability Gaps
To address matching challenges caused by the large number and rapid updates of vehicle models, PartGrid integrates CassTime’s VIN decoding system to help local partners achieve precise matching just as they would in China, reducing error rates. Multilingual communication is handled by AI, enabling barrier-free interaction. The platform can use formats such as WhatsApp Chatbot to connect with local users, adapting to the usage habits of small repair businesses and end users.
Beyond parts circulation, PartGrid also provides three AI agent service capabilities: an AI Repair Master, which synchronizes accumulated repair data and cases to local markets to help solve technical difficulties, especially overseas repair of Chinese vehicle models; an insurance claims assessment agent, which combines real-time fault analysis, parts matching information, and labor-hour estimation to support efficient implementation of insurance business; and an AI Seller, which provides accurate and timely quotations around the clock. Together, these three capabilities form a localized service loop of “parts + repair + insurance,” directly addressing the industry bottleneck of “repair capability falling behind.”
Saudi Arabia Case: Localized Operations Starting from Claims Scenarios
CassTime’s partner in Saudi Arabia is a Middle East technology company that manages insurance business. Its digital platform, Tamam, handles related business for nearly half of Saudi Arabia’s insurance companies. The two parties began their cooperation with online access in claims scenarios: through PartGrid, the partner’s platform connects local car owners, workshops, and the supply chain to enable digital tracking and management of the process; through CassChoice, it connects supply, opening up the parts value chain from source to end user.
On this basis, the cooperation has three expansion directions: extending application scenarios from claims to more end-user demand; as workshops adoption and business volume grow, more local suppliers join the platform; and upstream factories, brands, and distributors connecting to supply.
At present, CassTime has advanced implementation in the Middle East and is extending the mature model to Central Asia, South America, and other regions, accelerating the construction of a global parts service network. CassTime stated that it will continue to rely on AI and digital capabilities and work with local partners to jointly build a sustainable overseas service ecosystem.
