North America – Demand remained robust with record quarterly bookings in private networks

CEO Doron Arazi commented: "Our second quarter reflects the benefits of the strategy we've been executing over the past several years. Demand remains healthy across multiple end markets, and we're seeing momentum from both our traditional carrier business and newer growth areas such as private networks and managed services. Just as importantly, the quality of our opportunities and customer engagement, gives us confidence in the outlook for the balance of the year, as described below."

"Customer demand remains healthy, and our competitive position continues to improve, despite near-term industry-wide cost and supply chain pressures," continued Mr. Arazi. "Our E-band solutions are generating particular interest from customers and represent a strong competitive differentiator. Our recent field trial success with our 5G FR2 (mmWave) product for a new Tier 1 North American carrier points to our continued innovation that drives increased demand for our technology. Strong bookings and growing interest from new and existing customers reinforce our confidence in Ceragon's technology, innovation roadmap, and long-term growth prospects."
