SAN JOSE, Calif., October 24, 2018 -- Align Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALGN) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2018. Invisalign case shipments in the third quarter of 2018 (Q3’18) were 319.3 thousand, up 35.3% year-over-year. Americas and International region case shipments were up year-over-year 29.1% and 45.6%, respectively. Q3’18 Invisalign cases for teenage patients were 98.5 thousand, up 41.1% year-over-year. Q3’18 revenues were $505.3 million, up 31.2% year-over-year and Q3’18 operating income was $125.2 million, up 26.8% year-over-year resulting in an operating margin of 24.8%. Net profit was $100.9 million, or $1.24 per diluted share, up $0.23 year-over-year.
Commenting on Align’s Q3 2018 results, Align Technology President and CEO Joe Hogan said, “I’m pleased to report third quarter results with revenue and earnings above our outlook driven by higher than expected Invisalign volume -- offset somewhat by lower ASPs and foreign exchange. We also had another record quarter for the iTero scanner business with revenues up 79.1% year-over-year. Q3 Invisalign volume increased 5.5% sequentially and up 35.3% year-over-year reflecting strength across regions and customer channels, as well as strong growth from both teen and adult patients. From a product perspective, we saw strength across the Invisalign portfolio with growth from both comprehensive and non-comprehensive products, reflecting an acceleration in the non-comprehensive category related to expansion of our product portfolio, as well as new sales programs and promotions intended to increase adoption and utilization. We also saw continued strength from international regions, especially Asia Pacific, which was our 2nd largest region after the Americas in Q3.”

Announcements and Highlights
During the third quarter Align announced the following:
| • | | Expandedthe interactive brand experience program that was piloted in late 2017, and will add eight new locations in major U.S. cities in the fourth quarter of 2018. The program expansion is designed to address the rapidly-evolving consumer market for clear aligners and connects consumers interested in Invisalign treatment with Invisalign doctors in their communities. |
| • | | The first four Invisalign Experience locations in California, Pennsylvania and Maryland have shown great progress since opening and have contributed to a significant influx of consumer interest in the orthodontic marketplace surrounding each location. Key performance metrics to date suggest that the addition of an Invisalign Experience location can have a significant positive impact or “halo effect” on overall Invisalign patient growth in the surrounding area, even among doctors that are not directly participating in the Invisalign Experience pilot program. |
| • | | Announced the Invisalign Experience Branded Practice Pilot (doctor owned pilot). In Q4, Align will also partner with a few Invisalign doctors in select U.S. cities who will pilot Invisalign Experience branded practices to test new ways to reach consumers and connect them directly with doctors to start Invisalign treatment. This pilot is intended to help doctors integrate consumer-friendly design and consultation workflow into their practices and test new Invisalign Experience branding and a consumer-focused approach to consultations and Invisalign treatment starts. It includes an initial digital scan and smile visualization with a scanner, and immediate appointments for walk-ins. |
| • | | Launched the new digital treatment planning facility and education center in Madrid, Spain. The new launch reflects the dynamic growth of Spain and Portugal (jointly known as Iberia) in the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region and beyond. The second of its kind in Europe and the fourth worldwide, the treatment planning facility in Madrid aims to increase our commitment to Invisalign trained doctors in Spain and Portugal, and will play a key role in Align trained doctors in Spain and Portugal, and will play a key role in Align Technology`s strategy to be closer to its customers and support them in digital treatment planning. The new facility, which also acts as an education center for doctors, brings together current commercial teams representing Iberia and the new treatment planning team to provide Spanish and Portuguese doctors with first-hand support from the local staff. |
Align Technology Announces Third Quarter 2018 Results
| • | | Announced that on August 22, 2018, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (“Federal Circuit”) vacated the Patent Trial and Appeal Board’s (“PTAB”) decision invalidating certain claims of Align’s patent no. 6,699,037, entitled “Method and System for Incrementally Moving Teeth” (the ‘037 Patent). Although Align is not currently asserting this patent in any litigation against ClearCorrect, ClearCorrect challenged the validity of the patent in an inter partes review procedure and the resulting PTAB decision had invalidated four of the patent’s claims as obvious. The Federal Circuit disagreed and set aside the obviousness determination because “[n]either the Board’s decision nor ClearCorrect’s brief on appeal reveals substantial evidence in support of those findings.” The Federal Circuit remanded the matter to the PTAB for further proceedings consistent with its opinion. |
| • | | Shared the results of a new study by RealSelf, recognizing Invisalign clear aligners as the most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment brides and grooms are choosing and reviewing on its website before their big day. The study analyzed reviews on the RealSelf website over the past year that mention wedding-related keywords and rank the treatments based on percentage of total reviews. |
| • | | Launched its Orthodontic Aligner Fellowship Certificate Program, in collaboration with DentalXP, a global dental education provider on August 6, 2018. The training program will provide general practitioner dentists with professional education to help integrate Invisalign clear aligner therapy and iTero intraoral scanning more seamlessly into their comprehensive patient care. |
| • | | Expanded operations in Costa Rica with new facilities to support continued long-term growth. The grand opening of our newest facilities in Costa Rica on July 20 was attended by Carlos Alvarado Quesada, President of Costa Rica, as well as local government officials. Align invested approximately $50.0 million in two new multi-story office buildings, located at San Antonio Business Center (Belén, Heredia), with plans to open another multimillion dollar facility located in La Lima (Cartago) later this year. The new facilities will eventually house all of Align’s Costa Rica employees and provide space to accommodate our long-term growth. |
