Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K , including the accompanying Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 and 7.01 of Form 8-K and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section. The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K that is furnished under Item 2.02 and 7.01, including the accompanying Exhibit 99.1, shall not be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

On October 30, 2013, Aviat Networks, Inc. (“Aviat Networks”) issued a press release announcing its results of operations and financial condition as of and for its first quarter of fiscal year 2014, which ended September 27, 2013 and guidance regarding expected revenue for its second quarter of fiscal 2014. The full text of the press release and related financial tables is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures and Comparative Financial Information

The press release and related financial tables include a discussion of non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP income or loss from continuing operations, non-GAAP net income or loss from continuing operations per basic and diluted share, and adjusted earnings or loss before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") for the first quarter of fiscal 2014. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is generally defined as a numerical measure of a company's historical or future performance that excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments, so as to be different from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The non-GAAP income or loss from continuing operations was determined by excluding share-based compensation,warehouse consolidation costs, amortization of purchased technology, transactional taxes assessments, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring charges and adjustment to reflect pro forma tax rate. Adjusted EBITDA was determined by excluding depreciation and amortization on property, plant and equipment, interest expense, provision for income taxes, and non-GAAP pre-tax adjustments as set forth above, from the GAAP income from continuing operations. Aviat Networks has included in its press release a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in the press release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Aviat Networks reports information in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management of Aviat Networks monitors gross margin, operating income or loss, income or loss from continuing operations, income or loss from continuing operations per share and adjusted EBITDA on a non-GAAP basis for planning and forecasting results in future periods, and may use these measures for some management compensation purposes. As such, historical non-GAAP combined information has been included in this press release for comparative purposes. As a result, management is presenting these non-GAAP measures in addition to results reported in accordance with GAAP to better communicate underlying operational and financial performance in each period. Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results separate and apart from items that may, or could, have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on results in any given period. Management also believes that these non-GAAP measures enhance the ability of an investor to analyze trends in Aviat Networks' business and to better understand our performance.

Aviat Networks management does not, nor does it suggest that investors should consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Aviat Networks presents such non-GAAP financial measures in reporting its financial results to provide investors with an additional tool to evaluate the Company's financial performance.
