## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 23.0×** (5-yr avg 22.3×, 3-yr avg 22.3×). Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd. trades at 23.0× trailing earnings, close to its own five-year average of 22.3×.

- **Price / sales: 1.6×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.6×.
- **Price / book: 1.4×**. The shares trade at 1.4× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 10.3×**. Enterprise value is 10.3× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -0.4%** (5-yr avg 3.3%). Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.
- **Earnings yield: 4.3%**. The inverse of the P/E: 4.3% of the price is earned each year.

- **Net margin: 4.6%**. 4.6% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 4.1%**. 4.1% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on invested capital: 8.5%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 8.5%.
- **Return on assets: 4.1%**. Each dollar of assets produces 4.1% of profit; low single digits are normal for banks and insurers.

- **EPS growth (1 yr): -22.7%** (5-yr -11.6%/yr). Earnings per share fell 22.7%, slower than revenue, so margins compressed.
