Thank you.
Brian Thackray - Deutsche Bank
First question, Yanki, can you quantify how much contribution from SafeWord, Eutronsec and Athena was in the enterprise results?
Yanki Margalit
Sure, we will do that, but I would like to put a disclaimer here. We are going to do it for the quarter as in Q3 we had only a few weeks of that acquisition business. We are not, on a quarterly basis, going to be able to cut our sales by each and every product, however Aviram, please go ahead and provide the contribution from SafeWord and Eutronsec in the few weeks of Q3.
Aviram Shemer
Brian, SafeWord non-GAAP revenue contribution was approximately $3.3 million, and the Eutronsec contribution was approximately $300,000.
Brian Thackray - Deutsche Bank
Okay thanks you. On the gross margin front, can you just give a little bit more detail in terms of what is driving that change there? Is that something that is going to be continued going forward as we look into next year? Do you see further pressure on that coming down next year?
Aviram Shemer
It will enable us to even increase our margins next year. It is true that we are winning larger deals at lower prices, but overall we do not feel any significant price pressure in the market. We expect to be able to enhance the SafeWord margins in a significant way next year. That will start of our plan. We assume that we can reduce production for the SafeWord keys by dozens of points for next year. So overall, we are reducing our own internal production costs for our own products, for the new acquired product.
It is true that we are closing some larger deals at lower prices from time to time, but we see there is a trend and we do not anticipate cost of goods to increase next year. Contrary to that, I would suggest that Q4 was slightly on the low part of things, and we may be able to expect higher margins going forward.
Brian Thackray - Deutsche Bank
