Management Comment
Erez Antebi, President & CEO of Allot, commented: "We are very pleased with our performance in 2019. Our Visibility & Control business continued to perform well due to ongoing solid execution. We are also happy with our performance in the security space and we had a successful year bringing on several new operators to our security offerings, some of them in a revenue share arrangement. We believe that the recurring revenue and growth we gain from these deals will have a significantly positive long-term impact on our future. We expect to win further such deals in the coming year."
Continued Mr. Antebi, "Looking out to 2020, we expect accelerated top-line growth. While we continue to invest in our offerings and in sales and marketing, our expenses should grow at a slower rate than our revenue and subsequently we expect to reach profitability in the last quarter of 2020 . We look forward to continued growth as we successfully execute on our strategy."

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation:
Non-GAAP net income is defined as GAAP net income after excluding stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, restructuring expenses, changes in taxes and headcount related items, deferred tax asset adjustment, exchange rate differences related to revaluation of assets and liabilities denominated in non-dollar currencies 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 is 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.
