Erez Antebi, President &
CEO of Allot Communications, commented, "During the quarter we
announced that Allot was selected by another major global telecom
provider, Telefonica, to provide their subscriber base with network
security services in five major markets in LATAM and Europe. This comes on top of an expanding
subscriber base protected by the well-established Vodafone Secure
Net service powered by Allot and provides further evidence that our
network security products are gaining traction and the right growth
engine for our company."
Mr. Antebi continued: "I firmly believe Allot has strong
unleashed potential and our goal is to realize and maximize this in
the coming years."
Q1 2017 Financial results
On a GAAP basis, total revenues for the first quarter of 2017
were $18.4 million compared to
$22.9 million reported for the first
quarter of 2016. Net loss for the first quarter of 2017 was
$5.1 million, or $0.15 per basic and diluted share. This compares
with a net loss of $4.3 million, or
$0.13 per basic and diluted share, in
the first quarter of 2016.
On a non-GAAP basis, total revenues for the first quarter of
2017 were $18.5 million compared to
$23.0 million reported for the first
quarter of 2016. On a non-GAAP basis, net loss for the first
quarter of 2017 was $3.6 million, or

This compares with non-GAAP net loss of $1.8

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation:
The difference between GAAP and non-GAAP revenues is related to
the acquisitions made by the Company and represents revenues
adjusted for the impact of the fair value adjustment to acquired
deferred revenue related to purchase accounting. Non-GAAP net
income is defined as GAAP net income after including deferred
revenues related to the fair value adjustment resulting from
purchase accounting and excluding stock-based compensation
expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets,
deferred tax asset adjustment, restructuring expenses and other
acquisition-related expenses.
These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and
not as a substitute for, comparable GAAP measures. The non-GAAP
results and a full reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP results
are provided in the accompanying Table 2. The Company provides
these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes they present
a better measure of the Company's core business and management uses
the non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate the Company's ongoing
performance. Accordingly, the Company believes they are useful to
investors in enhancing an understanding of the Company's operating
performance.
