SANTA CLARA, Calif., April 26, 2006 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX News Network/ -- Align Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALGN), the inventor of Invisalign(R), a proprietary method of straightening teeth without wires and brackets, today reported financial results for the first quarter of 2006. Total revenues for the first quarter of 2006 were $48.9 million, compared to $51.2 million in the first quarter of 2005, a decrease of 4.4 percent.
"The first quarter represented a good start to the year for Align, as case volumes and utilization grew significantly," stated Thomas M. Prescott, Align Technology's President and CEO. "Continuing volume growth and increasing revenues in the face of recent pricing changes and mix shift are central to our business plan this year. As we continue to execute on our strategy and deliver value to our customers, adoption of Invisalign as an important part of their practice will grow."
The net loss for the first quarter of 2006, as reported on a GAAP basis, was $4.8 million, or loss per share of $0.08. This compares to GAAP net profit of $1.9 million for the first quarter of 2005, or EPS of $0.03.
The non-GAAP net loss for the first quarter of 2006, which excludes $2.2 million from the expensing of stock options pursuant to FAS 123R, was $2.6 million, or non-GAAP loss per share of $0.04. This compares to a non-GAAP net profit of $1.9 million in the first quarter of 2005, which excludes $12 thousand of stock-based compensation, or non-GAAP EPS of $0.03. The reconciliation of the GAAP to non-GAAP measurements for net profit (loss) for the first quarter of 2006 is set forth below within Align Technology's financial statements.

About Align Technology, Inc.
Align Technology designs, manufactures and markets Invisalign, a proprietary method for treating malocclusion, or the misalignment of teeth. Invisalign corrects malocclusion using a series of clear, nearly invisible, removable appliances that gently move teeth to a desired final position. Because it does not rely on the use of metal or ceramic brackets and wires, Invisalign significantly reduces the aesthetic and other limitations associated with braces. Invisalign is appropriate for treating adults and older teens. Align Technology was founded in April 1997 and received FDA clearance to market Invisalign in 1998.

NON-GAAP CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS (unaudited) Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, we use non-GAAP measures of gross profit, profit (loss) from operations, net profit (loss) and certain expenses (including sales and marketing, general and administrative and research and development), which exclude stock-based compensation to allow for a better comparison of results in the current period to those in prior periods that did not include FAS 123(R) stock-based compensation. We believe the non-GAAP measures that exclude stock-based compensation enhance the comparability of results against prior periods. In addition, we use these non-GAAP financial measures for internal managerial purposes, when publicly providing our business outlook and as a means to evaluate period-to- period comparisons. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
