One of the major achievements of the fourth quarter is the breadth of large deals, 26 in total, of which 11 large deals are from new customers," said Andrei Elefant, President & CEO of Allot Communications. "While book to bill was slightly above one, we demonstrated additional improvement in our gross margin and generated more than $8 million of operating cash flow.

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, inventory write-off expenses, regulatory matter expenses, acquisition-related expenses and compensation expenses related to the acquisitions.
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.
