Appointment of Director

On December 11, 2025, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Comtech Telecommunications Corp. (“Comtech” or the “Company”) appointed Mary J. Raymond as an independent director, effective after the filing of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2025. Ms. Raymond, 64, was the Chief Financial Officer of Coherent Corp. (NYSE: COHR) for ten years ending in April 2024. Coherent is a $5.8 billion revenue, $25.8 billion market cap global engineered materials and optical components company with operations in 20+ countries. She previously served as Global Chief Financial Officer at Hudson Global Inc. (subsequently merged with Star Equity Holdings, Inc., Nasdaq: STRR) from 2005 to 2013. Hudson Global was a global professional recruitment and talent management firm that rolled up 67 companies during Ms. Raymond’s tenure. Other previous roles included Chief Risk Officer at Dun and Bradstreet, Merger Integration Vice President at Lucent Technologies, and seven positions of increasing authority in general management, strategy and finance at Cummins Engine Company, Inc. (NYSE: CMI). Ms. Raymond obtained her Bachelor of Arts degree in Public Management from St. Joseph’s University and Masters in Business Administration from Stanford Graduate School of Business. Since 2019, Ms. Raymond has served as an independent director and member of the Audit Committee of Veeco Instruments Inc. (NASDAQ: VECO), a semiconductor and compound semiconductor process equipment company.

Ms. Raymond’s extensive experience with executive leadership, corporate finance, international business, M&A, and highly-engineered technology qualifies her to serve on the board.

The Board has determined that Ms. Raymond qualifies as an independent director in accordance with the requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Exchange. Ms. Raymond will serve on the Audit Committee and the Strategic Review Committee of the Board.

There are no other arrangements or understandings between Ms. Raymond and any other persons pursuant to which Ms. Raymond was selected as a director, and there are no transactions in which Ms. Raymond has an interest which require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. Ms. Raymond will receive compensation for service on the Board in accordance with the standard compensatory arrangement described in the Company’s Amendment No. 1 to Annual Report for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2025 on Form 10-K/A filed on November 26, 2025, for non-employee directors. In connection with her appointment, Ms. Raymond and the Company will enter into an Indemnification Agreement in the same form as the Form of Indemnification Agreement which was previously filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed on December 13, 2024.

On December 11, 2025 the Company issued a press release announcing the appointment of Ms. Raymond, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
