Insights

Equity Capital Markets Analyst

Gilat is raising nearly US$100 million via a dilutive Israeli private share placement.

Gilat Satellite Networks has secured commitments for a private placement of 8,888,889 new Ordinary Shares at US$11.25 per share from Israeli institutional and accredited investors. The transaction is expected to close in December 2025, subject to customary conditions, and is being conducted under Regulation S, so the shares will not be registered in the United States.

The company expects net proceeds of approximately US$98.8 million, which it plans to use for general corporate purposes, including potential strategic acquisitions. This provides substantial new capital but increases the share count, as the new shares are expected to represent about 12.15% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares after closing.

Because the placement is limited to Israeli investors and the securities carry transfer restrictions, trading dynamics will depend on how and when these investors can resell their shares under applicable securities laws. Subsequent disclosures on the use of proceeds, especially any acquisitions, will help clarify the longer-term strategic impact of this financing.
