SAN JOSE, CA -- (Marketwired - April 23, 2015) - Align Technology (NASDAQ: ALGN)
Align Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALGN) today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2015. Revenues for the first quarter of 2015 (Q1'15) were $198.1 million, a 9.7% increase year-over-year from $180.6 million in the first quarter of 2014 (Q1'14). Clear Aligner case shipments in Q1'15 were 130.8 thousand, a 16.6% increase year-over-year from 112.2 thousand in Q1'14. Net profit for Q1'15 was $36.2 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, compared to $32.4 million, or $0.39 per diluted share in Q1'14. Q1'15 operating income included a one-time benefit of $6.8 million from a refund of Medical Device Excise Taxes paid in 2013, contributing $0.06 per diluted share, net of tax.
"Our first quarter was a bit stronger than we expected, getting us off to a good start to the year. This progress was driven by continued strong year-over-year growth from our International team and solid improvement in our North American business as well," said Thomas M. Prescott, Align president and CEO. "We are pleased to have delivered better than expected results with strong revenues, margins, and EPS, driven primarily by higher Invisalign volume from our North American orthodontists."
