(1) Non-GAAP measure

Commenting on Align's Q1'23 results, Align Technology President and CEO Joe Hogan said, “Overall, I’m pleased to report better than expected first quarter revenues and earnings. Our first quarter revenues of $943.1 million, a sequential increase, reflect stability across all regions for our Clear Aligner business and favorable average selling price ("ASP") for the Clear Aligner and Systems and Services segments. Q1 sequential growth reflects an increase in Non-Case revenues which also increased year over year, driven by continued growth from our Invisalign® Doctor Subscription Program (“DSP”) and Vivera™ retainers. In the teen segment, which represents the largest portion of the 21 million annual orthodontic case starts, 182 thousand teens and kids started treatment with Invisalign clear aligners during the first quarter, increasing both sequentially and year over year, which is encouraging as we head into the important summer season for teens and kids. Overall, we remain confident in our large underpenetrated market opportunity globally and our ability to deliver digital products and technology that are helping doctors transform smiles and change lives for millions of people.”

As of March 31, 2023, we had $300.0 million available under a revolving line of credit which was amended during Q4 2022 to extend the term through 2027.

During Q1'23, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a new $1.0 Billion Stock Repurchase Program to succeed the 2021 $1 billion program. Currently $1.0 billion remains available for repurchases under the 2023 $1.0 Billion Stock Repurchase Program.

Q1'23 Announcement Highlights

  • On February 6, 2023, we announced that we entered into a new ASR agreement with Citibank, N.A., to repurchase $250.0 million of our common stock under our May 13, 2021, $1.0 Billion Stock Repurchase Program. In addition to the ASR, Align announced that Joe Hogan, president and CEO and John Morici, CFO and executive vice president, global finance intended to personally purchase $1.0 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of Align's common stock.

Fiscal 2023 Business Outlook

For 2023, Align provides the following business outlook:

  • For Q2'23, we anticipate Clear Aligner volume and ASP to be up sequentially. We also anticipate Systems and Services revenue to be up sequentially. We anticipate Q2’23 revenues to be in the range of $980 million to $1,000 million. We expect our Q2'23 GAAP and Non-GAAP gross margin to be flat to slightly up from Q1’23, and our Q2’23 GAAP and Non-GAAP operating margin to be up by approximately 1 point sequentially, as we continue to strategically prioritize our investments in go-to-market activities and R&D to drive growth.
  • For full year 2023, assuming no circumstances beyond our control occur, we are reiterating our 2023 GAAP operating margin to be slightly above 16% and our 2023 Non-GAAP operating margin to be slightly above 20%.
  • For 2023, we expect investments in capital expenditures to exceed $200 million. Capital expenditures are expected to primarily relate to building construction and improvements as well as additional manufacturing capacity in support of our continued international expansion.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), we may provide investors with certain non-GAAP financial measures which may include constant currency net revenues, constant currency gross profit, constant currency gross margin, constant currency income from operations, constant currency operating margin, gross profit, gross margin, operating expenses, income from operations, operating margin, interest income and other income (expense), net, net income before provision for income taxes, provision for income taxes, effective tax rate, net income and/or diluted net income per share, which excludes certain items that may not be indicative of our fundamental operating performance including, foreign currency exchange rate impacts and discrete cash and non-cash charges or gains that are included in the most directly comparable GAAP measure. In Q4'22, we changed to a long-term non-GAAP effective tax rate in our computation of the non-GAAP income tax provision to provide better consistency across reporting periods. Our previous methodology for calculating our non-GAAP effective tax rate included certain non-recurring and period-specific items, that produced fluctuating effective tax rates that management does not believe are reflective of the Company's long-term effective tax rate. This new methodology became effective January 1, 2022 and we recast prior periods in 2022. Unless otherwise indicated, when we refer to non-GAAP financial measures they will exclude the effects of stock-based compensation, amortization of certain acquired intangibles, restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related costs, and arbitration award gain, and associated tax impacts.

Our management believes that the use of certain non-GAAP financial measures provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our recurring core operating performance. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors both because (1) they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (2) they are used by our institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the performance of our business.

There are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures as they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures are limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which charges are excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures. We compensate for these limitations by analyzing current and future results on a GAAP as well as a non-GAAP basis and by providing GAAP measures in our public disclosures. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is meant to be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or in isolation from, the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. We urge investors to review the reconciliation of our GAAP financial measures to the comparable non-GAAP financial measures included herein and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the tables captioned "Unaudited GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation."

Readers are cautioned that these forward-looking statements reflect our best judgments based on currently known facts and circumstances and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict. As a result, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statement.

Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to:

  • macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, rising interest rates, market volatility, weakness in general economic conditions and recessions and the impact of efforts by central banks and federal, state and local governments to combat inflation and recession;
  • customer and consumer purchasing behavior and changes in consumer spending habits as a result of, among other things, prevailing macro-economic conditions, levels of employment, salaries and wages, debt obligations, discretionary income, inflationary pressure, declining consumer confidence, and the military conflict in Ukraine;
  • the economic and geopolitical ramifications of the military conflict in Ukraine, including sanctions, retaliatory sanctions, nationalism, supply chain disruptions and other consequences, any of which may or will continue to adversely impact our operations and research and development activities inside and outside of Russia;
  • variations in our product mix and selling prices regionally and globally;
  • the timing and availability and cost of raw materials, components, products and other shipping and supply chain constraints;
  • unexpected or rapid changes in the growth or decline of our domestic and/or international markets;
  • competition from existing and new competitors;
  • rapidly evolving and groundbreaking advances that fundamentally alter the dental industry or the way new and existing customers market and provide products and services to consumers;
  • the ability to protect our intellectual property rights;
  • continued compliance with regulatory requirements;
  • declines in, or the slowing of the growth of, sales of our clear aligners and intraoral scanners domestically and/or internationally and the impact either would have on the adoption of Invisalign products;
  • the willingness and ability of our customers to maintain and/or increase product utilization in sufficient numbers;
  • the possibility that the development and release of new products or enhancements to existing products do not proceed in accordance with the anticipated timeline or may themselves contain bugs, errors or defects in software or hardware requiring remediation and that the market for the sale of these new or enhanced products may not develop as expected;
  • a tougher consumer demand environment in China generally, especially for manufacturers and service providers whose headquarters or primary operations are not based in China;
  • the risks relating to our ability to sustain or increase profitability or revenue growth in future periods (or minimize declines) while controlling expenses;
  • expansion of our business and products;
  • the impact of excess or constrained capacity at our manufacturing and treat operations facilities and pressure on our internal systems and personnel;
  • the compromise of our systems or networks, including any customer and/or patient data contained therein, for any reason;
  • the timing of case submissions from our doctor customers within a quarter as well as an increased manufacturing costs per case;
  • foreign operational, political, military and other risks relating to our operations; and
  • the loss of key personnel, labor shortages or work stoppages for us or our suppliers.

The foregoing and other risks are detailed from time to time in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, but not limited to, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 27, 2023.

Note:

(1)

We define constant currency net revenues as total net revenues excluding the effect of foreign exchange rate movements and use it to determine the percentage for the constant currency impact on net revenues on a sequential and year-over-year basis. Constant currency impact in dollars is calculated by translating the current period GAAP net revenues using the foreign currency exchange rates that were in effect during the previous comparable period and subtracting it by the current period GAAP net revenues. The percentage for the constant currency impact on net revenues is calculated by dividing the constant currency impact in dollars (numerator) by constant currency net revenues in dollars (denominator).
