Exhibit 99.1

 
Allot Communications Announces Authorization of Share
Repurchase Program of up to $15 Million
 
Hod Hasharon, Israel – August 4, 2015 – Allot Communications Ltd. (NASDAQ, TASE: ALLT), a leading global provider of intelligent broadband solutions that empowers communication service providers to optimize and monetize their networks, enterprises to enhance productivity and consumers to improve their digital lifestyle, announced today that its Board of Directors has approved a program for the Company to repurchase up to $15 million of its outstanding ordinary shares.  Under Israeli law, commencement of repurchases is subject to court approval. As of June 30, 2015 Allot had approximately 33.5 million ordinary shares outstanding.
 
Andrei Elefant, President and Chief Executive Officer of Allot said: “This share repurchase program demonstrates the confidence we have in the Company and its long-term growth prospects, and is consistent with management’s goal of increasing shareholder value.”
 
Share purchases will take place in open market transactions or in privately negotiated transactions and may be made from time to time depending on market conditions, share price, trading volume and other factors. Such purchases will be made in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations. For all or a portion of the authorized repurchase amount, Allot may enter into a plan that is compliant with Rule 10b5-1 of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is designed to facilitate these purchases. The repurchase program does not require Allot to acquire a specific number of shares, and may be suspended from time to time or discontinued.
 
The share repurchases will be funded from available working capital. Allot intends to apply to the competent court in Israel for authorization to repurchase an amount of its Ordinary Shares for an aggregate purchase price of up to $15 million. Allot expects that the court approval process will take approximately three months.
