Can Allot's Strong SECaaS Momentum Fuel Continued ARR Growth?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Key Takeaways
ALLT's SECaaS ARR grew roughly 60% year over year in Q3 2025, driven by telecom partner adoption.
SECaaS accounted for about 28% of revenues, while recurring revenues rose to 63% of total sales.
New offerings and upselling to existing telecom customers are supporting continued ARR expansion.
Allot Ltd. (ALLT - Free Report) is seeing steady progress in its Cybersecurity-as-a-Service (SECaaS) business, which is becoming the company’s main growth driver. In the third quarter of 2025, SECaaS’ annual recurring revenue (ARR) increased about 60% year over year. The growth was primarily driven by higher adoption from telecom partners and more end users signing up for security services.
Furthermore, SECaaS made up around 28% of Allot’s total revenues in the third quarter. Looking ahead, management expects this share to move closer to 30% if current trends continue, which bodes well for the company's prospects in the upcoming quarters. This is crucial because SECaaS is a subscription-based offering, which makes revenues more predictable. Recurring revenues accounted for 63% of total revenues in the third quarter compared with 58% a year ago, showing a gradual improvement in revenue quality.
During the third quarter earnings call, management outlined a few clear drivers behind SECaaS growth. Large Tier-1 telecom customers that launched services in recent quarters are continuing to add new subscribers, which is driving demand for Allot’s solutions. Existing customers are also buying additional services over time, which supports upselling. Allot is also introducing new offerings, such as OffNetSecure, which allows protection even when users are off the operator’s network. This broadens the use of SECaaS and could help increase revenue per user over time.
If telecom partners continue to scale these services and user adoption remains steady, SECaaS momentum could continue to support ALLT’s ARR growth in the coming quarters. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2025 and 2026 indicates revenue growth of around 10.3% and 13.3%, respectively.
