NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
NOTE 1. BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Business Overview
The Company provides products that are used to diagnose, treat and prevent disease and ailments of the teeth, gums and supporting bone, as well as to improve the aesthetics of the human smile. The Company is a worldwide provider of a broad range of dental implants, orthodontic appliances, diagnostic solutions, general dental consumables, equipment and services and is dedicated to driving technological innovations that help dental professionals improve clinical outcomes and enhance productivity.
The Company operates in two business segments: Specialty Products & Technologies and Equipment & Consumables.
The Company’s Specialty Products & Technologies segment primarily develops, manufactures and markets dental implant systems, including regenerative solutions, dental prosthetics and associated treatment software and technologies, as well as orthodontic bracket systems, aligners and lab products. The Company’s Equipment & Consumables segment primarily develops, manufactures and markets dental equipment and supplies used in dental offices, including digital imaging systems, software and other visualization/magnification systems; endodontic systems and related consumables; and restorative materials and instruments, rotary burs, impression materials, bonding agents and cements and infection prevention products.
Basis of Presentation
All revenues and costs as well as assets and liabilities directly associated with the business activity of the Company are included in the financial statements. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions between the businesses comprising the Company have been eliminated in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared by the Company without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications to conform to current year presentation) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 27, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and its results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023 and cash flows for the nine month periods ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes for the three years ended December 31, 2023, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with the SEC on February 15, 2024.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”. The update requires a public business entity to disclose, on an annual basis, a tabular rate reconciliation using both percentages and currency amounts, broken out into specified categories with certain reconciling items further broken out by nature and jurisdiction to the extent those items exceed a specified threshold. In addition, all entities are required to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds received disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign and by jurisdiction if the amount is at least 5% of total income tax payments, net of refunds received. Adoption of the ASU allows for either the prospective or retrospective application of the amendment and is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company has not yet completed its assessment of the impact of ASU 2023-09 on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting - Improving Reportable Segment Disclosures (Topic 280)”. The update is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant expenses. The ASU requires disclosures to include significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM), a description of other segment items by reportable segment, and any additional measures of a segment's profit or loss used by the CODM when deciding how to allocate resources. Adoption of the ASU requires retrospective application to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for fiscal periods after December 15, 2024 for interim periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet completed its assessment of the impact of ASU 2023-07 on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
NOTE 2. CREDIT LOSSES
The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account deducted from accounts receivable to present the net amount expected to be collected. Accounts receivable are charged off against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of an accounts receivable balance is confirmed.
Management estimates the adequacy of the allowance by using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions and forecasts. Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for estimation of expected credit losses and is adjusted as necessary using the relevant information available. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The Company has identified one portfolio segment based on the following risk characteristics: geographic regions, product lines, default rates and customer specific factors.
The factors used by management in its credit loss analysis are inherently subject to uncertainty. If actual results are not consistent with management’s estimates and assumptions, the allowance for credit losses may be overstated or understated and a charge or credit to net income (loss) may be required.
The rollforward of the allowance for credit losses is summarized as follows ($ in millions):
| | | | | |
Balance at December 31, 2023 | $ | 17.3 | |
Foreign currency translation | (0.1) | |
Provision for credit losses | 16.0 | |
Write-offs charged against the allowance | (3.1) | |
Recoveries | (2.1) | |

NOTE 6. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Goodwill and other intangible assets result from the Company’s acquisition of existing businesses. In accordance with accounting standards related to business combinations, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles are not amortized; however, certain finite-lived identifiable intangible assets, primarily customer relationships and acquired technology, are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The Company assesses both goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment as of the first day of the fourth quarter annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the asset might be impaired. During the nine months ended September 27, 2024, the Company identified indicators of a "more likely than not" impairment related to its various reporting units within the Specialty Products & Technologies and Equipment & Consumables segments.
The Company used the income approach in performing a goodwill impairment test in order to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value amount. The Company’s reporting units are the financial components of operating segments which constitute businesses for which discrete financial information is available and regularly reviewed by segment management. The income approach uses a discounted cash flow model with inputs developed using both internal and market-based data. The Company's significant assumptions in the discounted cash flow models vary amongst, and are specific to, each reporting unit which include, but are not limited to, discount rates, revenue growth rates assumptions (including perpetual growth rates) and operating margin percentages. These assumptions were developed in light of current market conditions and future expectations which include, but were not limited to, impact of competition, new product development and future economic conditions. As a result of this impairment test, the Company recorded a pre-tax goodwill impairment charge of $707.8 million related to its Specialty Products & Technologies segment and $252.7 million related to its Equipment & Consumables segment during the nine months ended September 27, 2024. The reduction in value was primarily due to adverse macroeconomic factors such as a sustained suppressed stock price, higher cost of borrowing and inflationary pressures, geopolitical factors, and lower forecast of operating results which contributed to reduced expectations of future cash flows as mentioned above.
The Company used the relief from royalty method to estimate the fair value of its indefinite-lived intangible assets. The Company's significant assumptions vary amongst, and are specific to, each underlying indefinite-lived intangible asset which include, but are not limited to, revenue growth rates assumptions (including perpetual growth rates), discount rates and royalty rates. The Company recorded an impairment charge of $101.1 million related to certain indefinite-lived trade names within the Specialty Products & Technologies segment during the nine months ended September 27, 2024. The reduction in value was primarily due to a reduction in projected cash flows due to the factors discussed above.
Any deviation in actual financial results compared to the forecasted financial results or valuation assumptions used in the impairment tests, a decline in equity valuations, increases in interest rates, or changes in the use of intangible assets, among other factors, could have a material adverse effect on the fair value of either the reporting units or indefinite-lived intangible assets and could result in future impairment charges. There can be no assurance that the Company’s future asset impairment testing will not result in a material charge to earnings. These impairment charges described above were recorded in the goodwill and intangible asset impairment line within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations during the nine months ended September 27, 2024.
There were no goodwill impairment charges recorded for the three month period ended September 27, 2024 nor the three or nine month periods ended September 29, 2023.
The following is a rollforward of the Company’s goodwill by segment ($ in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Specialty Products & Technologies | | Equipment & Consumables | | Total |

Additionally, management reviews the carrying amounts of other finite-lived intangible assets whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment indicators include, among other factors, cash flow deficits, historic or anticipated declines in revenue or operating profit, and adverse legal or regulatory developments. If it is determined that such indicators are present and the review indicates that the assets will not be fully recoverable based on undiscounted estimated cash flows, their carrying values are reduced to estimated fair market value. Estimated fair market value is determined primarily using projected cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. For the purposes of identifying and measuring impairment, long-lived assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. During the nine months ended September 27, 2024, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $92.2 million related to developed technology and customer relationships within the Equipment & Consumables segment. The reduction in value was primarily due to a reduction in projected cash flows due to the factors discussed above.
Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over the shorter of their legal or estimated useful life. The following summarizes the gross carrying value, accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, for each major category of intangible asset ($ in millions):

NOTE 8. HEDGING TRANSACTIONS AND DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company uses cross-currency swap derivative contracts to partially hedge its net investments in foreign operations against adverse movements in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the euro. The cross-currency swap derivative contracts are agreements to exchange fixed-rate payments in one currency for fixed-rate payments in another currency. On January 17, 2023, the Company entered into a two-year cross-currency swap derivative contract, with a notional value of $150.0 million. This contract effectively converts a portion of the Company’s U.S. dollar denominated senior term loan facilities to obligations denominated in euros and partially offsets the impact of changes in currency rates on foreign currency denominated net investments. This instrument matures on January 17, 2025.
The Company also has foreign currency denominated long-term debt consisting of a senior euro term loan facility. The senior euro term loan facility represents a partial hedge of the Company’s net investment in foreign operations against adverse movements in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the euro. The senior euro term loan facility is designated and qualifies as a non-derivative hedging instrument.
Refer to Note 12 for further discussion of the Company’s debt and credit facilities.
The change in the fair value of the cross-currency swap instrument and the foreign currency translation of the senior euro term loan facilities are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, partially offsetting the foreign currency translation adjustment of the Company’s related net investment that is also recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss as reflected in Note 14.
The Company has also historically used interest rate swap derivative contracts to reduce its variability of cash flows related to interest payments with respect to its senior term and senior euro term loan facilities. The interest rate swap contracts exchanged interest payments based on variable rates for interest payments based on fixed rates. The changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss (see Note 14). The interest income or expense from the cross-currency and interest rate swaps is recorded in interest expense, net in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations consistent with the classification of interest expense attributable to the underlying debt. The Company did not have any outstanding interest rate swap contracts as of September 27, 2024.
The following table summarizes the notional values and pretax impact of changes in the fair values of instruments designated as net investment hedges in accumulated other comprehensive loss (“OCI”) for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023 ($ in millions):

The Company did not reclassify any deferred gains or losses related to its net investment hedge from accumulated other comprehensive loss to income during the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023. In addition, the Company did not have any ineffectiveness related to its net investment hedge and therefore did not reclassify any portion of the above net investment hedge from accumulated other comprehensive loss into income during the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023. The cash inflows and outflows associated with the Company’s derivative contract designated as a net investment hedge is classified in investing activities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
The Company’s derivative instrument, as well as its non-derivative debt instrument designated and qualifying as net investment hedges, were classified in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows ($ in millions):

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Accounting standards define fair value based on an exit price model, establish a framework for measuring fair value where the Company’s assets and liabilities are required to be carried at fair value and provide for certain disclosures related to the valuation methods used within a valuation hierarchy as established within the accounting standards. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows: Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, or other observable characteristics for the asset or liability, including interest rates, yield curves and credit risks, or inputs that are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data through correlation; and Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
A summary of financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows ($ in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Quoted Prices in Active Market (Level 1) | | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) | | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) | | Total |

Contingent consideration | $ | — | | | $ | — | | | $ | 3.8 | | | $ | 3.8 | |
Derivative Instruments
The cross-currency swap derivative contract was classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as it is measured using the income approach with the relevant foreign currency current exchange rates and forward curves as inputs. Refer to Note 8 for additional information.
Deferred Compensation Plans
Certain management employees of the Company participate in nonqualified deferred compensation programs that permit such employees to defer a portion of their compensation, on a pretax basis. Participants may choose among alternative earning rates for the amounts they defer, which are based on the programs’ investment options. These deferred compensation obligations are classified as Level 2 as inputs are derived principally from, or corroborated by observable market data.
The deferred compensation obligations are funded through a Company established irrevocable rabbi trust (refer to Note 13 Deferred Compensation Plans). The investments in the rabbi trust primarily consist of mutual funds and corporate owned life insurance policies. The mutual funds are valued based on quoted market prices and therefore are classified as Level 1. The corporate owned life insurance policies have cash surrender values (which approximate fair value), that derive their values from investments in mutual funds that are managed by an insurance company, valued using a market approach and therefore are classified within Level 2.
Contingent Consideration
Contingent consideration represents a cash hold back intended to be used for certain liabilities related to the Company’s acquisitions. Contingent consideration was classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as the estimated fair value was measured using a probability weighted discounted cash flow model.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments were as follows ($ in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| September 27, 2024 | | December 31, 2023 |

Convertible senior notes due 2028 | $ | 489.0 | | | $ | 453.8 | | | $ | 486.9 | | | $ | 455.7 | |
Convertible senior notes due 2025 | $ | 115.8 | | | $ | 127.3 | | | $ | 115.3 | | | $ | 145.1 | |
Other debt | $ | 816.6 | | | $ | 816.6 | | | $ | 911.2 | | | $ | 911.2 | |
The fair value of long-term debt approximates the carrying value as these borrowings are based on variable market rates. The fair value of the convertible senior notes due 2028 and convertible senior notes due 2025 were determined based on the quoted bid price of the convertible senior notes in an over-the-counter market on September 27, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The convertible senior notes are considered as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, which consist primarily of money market funds, time and demand deposits, trade accounts receivables and trade accounts payable approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
NOTE 10. WARRANTY
The Company generally accrues estimated warranty costs at the time of sale. In general, manufactured products are warranted against defects in material and workmanship when properly used for their intended purpose, installed correctly and appropriately maintained. Warranty periods depend on the nature of the product and range from 90 days up to the life of the product. The amount of the accrued warranty liability is determined based on historical information such as past experience, product failure rates or number of units repaired, estimated cost of material and labor and in certain instances estimated property damage. The accrued warranty liability is reviewed on a quarterly basis and may be adjusted as additional information regarding expected warranty costs becomes known. At September 27, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the warranty liability was $9.4 million and $9.0 million, respectively.
NOTE 11. LITIGATION AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company records accruals for loss contingencies associated with legal matters when it is probable that a liability will be incurred, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.
For litigation matters that the Company has determined are both probable and can be reasonably estimated, the Company has accrued $30.8 million and $38.0 million as of September 27, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, which are included in accrued liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has accrued for these matters and will continue to monitor each related legal issue and adjust accruals as might be warranted based on new information and further developments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 450-20-25. Amounts accrued for legal contingencies often result from a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties that rely heavily on estimates and assumptions including timing of related payments. The ability to make such estimates and judgments can be affected by various factors including, among other things, whether damages sought in the proceedings are unsubstantiated or indeterminate; legal discovery has not commenced or is not complete; proceedings are in early stages; matters present legal uncertainties; there are significant facts in dispute; procedural or jurisdictional issues; the uncertainty and unpredictability of the number of potential claims; or there are numerous parties involved. To the extent adverse verdicts have been rendered against the Company, the Company does not record an accrual until a loss is determined to be probable and can be reasonably estimated. In the Company's opinion, based on its examination of these matters, its experience to date and discussions with counsel, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, net of liabilities accrued in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position. However, the resolution of, or increase in accruals for one or more of these matters in any reporting period may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and cash flows for that period.
NOTE 12. DEBT AND CREDIT FACILITIES
The components of the Company’s debt were as follows, net of debt discount and debt issuance costs ($ in millions):

Credit Facilities
On August 31, 2023, the Company entered into a second amended and restated credit agreement (the “Second Amended Credit Agreement”), which amends and restates the Company’s credit agreement dated June 15, 2021. Under the Second Amended Credit Agreement, the Company entered into the 2028 Term Loan for $530.0 million and the 2028 Euro Term Loan for €350.0 million (collectively the “2028 Term Loans”). The Second Amended Credit Agreement also includes a revolving credit facility (together with the 2028 Term Loans, the “Senior Credit Facilities”) with an aggregate available borrowing capacity of $750.0 million and a $30.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit that can be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The Company may request further increases to the revolving credit facility by an amount that is the greater of 100% of Consolidated EBITDA or $525.0 million. As of September 27, 2024 and December 31, 2023 there were no borrowings outstanding under this revolving credit facility. The Senior Credit Facilities mature on August 31, 2028, and are subject to an earlier maturity date of 91 days prior to the maturity date of the 2028 Convertible Notes, if more than $250.0 million of such notes are outstanding at that time.
The proceeds from the 2028 Term Loans were used to pay outstanding balances of the 2024 Term Loans. The Company paid fees aggregating approximately $5.2 million in connection with the Second Amended Credit Agreement.
On September 17, 2024, the Company repaid $100.0 million of the 2028 Term Loan.
Under the Senior Credit Facilities, borrowings bear interest as follows: (1) Term SOFR Loans (as defined in the Second Amended Credit Agreement) bear interest at a variable rate on a forward-looking Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) term rate plus 0.10% credit spread adjustment plus a margin of between 0.910% and 1.625%, depending on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Second Amended Credit Agreement) as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter; and (2) Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Second Amended Credit Agreement) bear interest at a variable rate equal to (a) the highest of (i) the Federal funds rate (as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York from time to time) plus 0.50%, (ii) Bank of America’s “prime rate” as publicly announced from time to time, (iii) the Term SOFR (as defined in the Second Amended Credit Agreement) plus 1.0% and (iv) 1.0%, plus a margin of between 0.0% and 0.625%, depending on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter. In no event will Term SOFR Loans or Base Rate Loans bear interest at a rate lower than 0.0%. In addition, the Company is required to pay a per annum facility fee of between 0.09% and 0.225% depending on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter and based on the aggregate commitments under the revolving credit facility, whether drawn or not.
The interest rates for borrowings under the 2028 Term Loan were 6.68% and 6.70% as of September 27, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The interest rates for borrowings under the 2028 Euro Term Loan were 4.80% and 5.00% as of September 27, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Interest is payable monthly for the 2028 Term Loans. The Company is required to maintain a Consolidated Leverage Ratio of 4.00 to 1.00 or less and includes a provision that the maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio will be increased to 4.50 to 1.00 for the three consecutive full fiscal quarters immediately following the consummation of any acquisition by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company in which the purchase price exceeds $100.0 million. The Company is also required to maintain a Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Second Amended Credit Agreement) of at least 3.00 to 1.00. The Company is subject to customary representations, warranties, conditions precedent, events of default, indemnities and affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the Company’s and/or the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications, to incur liens or indebtedness, merge, consolidate or sell or otherwise transfer assets, make dividends or distributions, enter into transactions with the Company’s affiliates and use proceeds of the debt financing for other than permitted uses. Additionally, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, the lenders may declare the outstanding advances and all other obligations immediately due and payable. The Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants as of September 27, 2024.
2028 Convertible Notes
On August 10, 2023, the Company issued the 2028 Convertible Notes due on August 15, 2028, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The aggregate principal amount, which includes the initial purchasers’ exercise in full of their option to purchase an additional $65.2 million principal amount, was $500.2 million. The net proceeds from the issuance, after deducting purchasers’ discounts and estimated offering expenses, were $485.9 million.
The 2028 Convertible Notes accrue interest at a rate of 1.75% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year. The 2028 Convertible Notes have an initial conversion rate of 21.5942 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $46.31 per share of the Company’s common stock and is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events. The 2028 Convertible Notes are governed by an indenture dated as of August 10, 2023 (the “Indenture”) between the Company and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee. The Indenture does not contain any financial covenants or any restrictions on the payment of dividends, the incurrence of senior debt or other indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of the Company’s securities by the Company.
The 2028 Convertible Notes are senior, unsecured obligations and are (i) equal in right of payment with the Company’s existing and future senior, unsecured indebtedness; (ii) senior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the 2028 Convertible Notes; (iii) effectively subordinated to the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness; and (iv) structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and (to the extent the Company is not a holder thereof) preferred equity, if any, of the Company’s subsidiaries.
Holders of the 2028 Convertible Notes may convert at any time on or after February 15, 2028 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. Holders will also have the right to convert prior to February 15, 2028, but only upon the occurrence of specified events. The Company will settle any convertible note conversions through a combination settlement by satisfying the principal amount outstanding with cash and any convertible note conversion value in excess of the principal amount in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock or any combination thereof. If a fundamental change occurs prior to the maturity date, holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their 2028 Convertible Notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, if specific corporate events occur prior to the maturity date, the Company would increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert in connection with such an event in certain circumstances. As of September 27, 2024, none of the conditions permitting early conversion by holders had been met, therefore, the 2028 Convertible Notes are classified as long-term debt.
The 2028 Convertible Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after August 17, 2026 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding the redemption date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price on (i) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends the related redemption notice; and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends such notice. In addition, calling any 2028 Convertible Note for redemption will constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to that 2028 Convertible Note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption.
The 2028 Convertible Notes are accounted for in accordance with ASC 470 “Debt” and ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging.” The Company has evaluated all the embedded conversion options contained in the 2028 Convertible Notes to determine if there are embedded features that require bifurcation as a derivative as required by U.S. GAAP. Based on the Company’s analysis, it accounts for the 2028 Convertible Notes as single units of accounting, a liability, because the Company concluded that the conversion features do not require bifurcation as a derivative.
2025 Convertible Notes
On May 21, 2020, the Company issued the 2025 Convertible Notes due on June 1, 2025, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The aggregate principal amount, which includes the initial purchasers’ exercise in full of their option to purchase an additional $67.5 million principal amount was $517.5 million. The net proceeds from the issuance, after deducting purchasers’ discounts and estimated offering expenses, were $502.6 million. The Company used part of the net proceeds to pay for the capped call transactions (“Capped Calls”) as further described below.
On August 10, 2023, the Company entered into exchange agreements with a limited number of holders of the 2025 Convertible Notes to exchange $401.2 million principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes for aggregate consideration which consisted of approximately $403.0 million in cash, which included accrued interest, and approximately 8.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Notes Exchanges”). The Company recognized a non-cash inducement charge of $28.5 million in connection with the Notes Exchanges which was recorded within Other Expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, a reduction of $4.4 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, and an increase in additional paid-in capital of $24.1 million.
The 2025 Convertible Notes accrue interest at a rate of 2.375% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year. The 2025 Convertible Notes have an initial conversion rate of 47.5862 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $21.01 per share of the Company’s common stock and is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events. The 2025 Convertible Notes are governed by an indenture dated as of May 21, 2020 (the “2025 Convertible Note Indenture”) between the Company and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee. The 2025 Convertible Note Indenture does not contain any financial covenants or any restrictions on the payment of dividends, the incurrence of senior debt or other indebtedness or the issuance or repurchase of the Company’s securities by the Company.
The 2025 Convertible Notes are senior, unsecured obligations and are (i) equal in right of payment with the Company’s existing and future senior, unsecured indebtedness; (ii) senior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the 2025 Convertible Notes; (iii) effectively subordinated to the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness; and (iv) structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and (to the extent the Company is not a holder thereof) preferred equity, if any, of the Company’s subsidiaries.
Holders may convert at any time on or after December 2, 2024, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day preceding the maturity date. Holders will also have the right to convert prior to December 2, 2024, but only upon the occurrence of specified events. The Company will settle any convertible note conversions through a combination settlement by satisfying the principal amount outstanding with cash and any convertible note conversion value in excess of the principal amount in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock or any combination thereof. If a fundamental change occurs prior to the maturity date, holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their 2025 Convertible Notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to 100.0% of the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, if specific corporate events occur prior to the maturity date, the Company would increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert in connection with such an event in certain circumstances. The 2025 Convertible Notes are classified as short-term debt as of September 27, 2024 and December 31, 2023, as holders may convert at any time after December 2, 2024.
The 2025 Convertible Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time, on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amounts to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding the redemption date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130.0% of the conversion price on (i) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends the related redemption notice; and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends such notice. In addition, calling any 2025 Convertible Note for redemption will constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change”, as defined in the 2025 Convertible Note Indenture, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption.
The following table sets forth total interest expense recognized related to convertible notes ($ in millions):

| Three Months Ended | | Nine Months Ended | |
| September 27, 2024 | | September 29, 2023 | | September 27, 2024 | | September 29, 2023 | | | |
Contractual interest expense: | | | | | | | | | | |
2028 Convertible Notes | $ | 2.2 | | | $ | 1.2 | | | $ | 6.6 | | | $ | 1.2 | | | | |
2025 Convertible Notes | 0.7 | | | 2.3 | | | 2.1 | | | 8.4 | | | | |
Amortization of debt issuance costs: | | | | | | | | | | |
2028 Convertible Notes | 0.7 | | | 0.3 | | | 2.1 | | | 0.3 | | | | |
2025 Convertible Notes | 0.1 | | | 0.4 | | | 0.5 | | | 1.9 | | | | |
Total interest expense | $ | 3.7 | | | $ | 4.2 | | | $ | 11.3 | | | $ | 11.8 | | | | |
For the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023, the debt issuance costs were amortized using an annual effective interest rate of 2.4% and 3.0% for the 2028 Convertible Notes and the 2025 Convertible Notes, respectively.
As of September 27, 2024, the if-converted value of the 2025 Convertible Notes and the 2028 Convertible Notes did not exceed their respective outstanding principal amounts. As of December 31, 2023, the if-converted value of the 2025 Convertible Notes exceeded the outstanding principal amount by $16.9 million while the if-converted value of the 2028 Convertible Notes did not exceed the outstanding principal.
Debt Issuance Costs
The remaining unamortized debt issuance costs for debt outstanding were as follows ($ in millions): | | | | | | | | | | | |
| |
| September 27, 2024 | | December 31, 2023 |
2028 Convertible Notes | $ | 11.2 | | | $ | 13.3 | |
2025 Convertible Notes | 0.5 | | | 1.0 | |
2028 Term Loan | 3.3 | | | 4.2 | |
2028 Euro Term Loan | 0.8 | | | 1.0 | |
| $ | 15.8 | | | $ | 19.5 | |
The above unamortized debt issuance costs have been netted against their respective aggregate principal amounts of the related debt and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the respective debt.
Capped Call Transactions
In connection with the offering of the 2025 Convertible Notes, the Company entered into Capped Calls with certain counterparties. The Capped Calls have an initial strike price of approximately $21.01 per share, subject to certain adjustments, which corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2025 Convertible Notes. The Capped Calls have initial cap prices of $23.79 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The Capped Calls are generally intended to reduce or offset the potential dilution from shares of common stock issued upon any conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes with such reduction or offset, as the case may be, subject to a cap based on the cap price. In connection with the Notes Exchanges as discussed above, the Company completed a partial unwind of the Capped Calls.
As the Capped Call transactions are considered indexed to the Company's own stock and are considered equity classified, they are recorded in equity and are not accounted for as derivatives. The cost of $20.7 million incurred in connection with the Capped Calls was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.
NOTE 13. DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS
Certain management employees of the Company participate in nonqualified deferred compensation programs that permit such employees to defer a portion of their compensation, on a pretax basis. The obligations are presented as a component of the Company’s compensation and benefits accrual included in accrued expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (refer to Note 7). Participants may choose among alternative earnings rates for the amounts they defer, which are based on the programs’ investment options. Changes in the deferred compensation liability under these programs are recognized based on changes in the fair value of the participants’ accounts. Amounts voluntarily deferred by employees into the Company stock fund and amounts contributed to participant accounts by the Company are deemed invested in the Company’s common stock and future distributions of such contributions will be made solely in shares of Company common stock, and therefore are not reflected in the plan obligations.
As a nonqualified compensation plan, funding of the obligation is not required; however during the quarter ended September 27, 2024, the Company funded the plan obligations through a Company established irrevocable rabbi trust. The assets held in the irrevocable rabbi trust consist primarily of mutual funds and corporate owned life insurance policies, which are measured at fair value, and are intended to align with the deferred compensation obligation investment options selected by plan participants (refer to Note 9).

NOTE 15. REVENUE
The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by geographical region for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023 ($ in millions). Sales taxes and other usage-based taxes collected from customers are excluded from revenues. The Company has historically defined emerging markets as developing markets of the world experiencing extended periods of accelerated growth in gross domestic product and infrastructure, including Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and Asia (with the exception of Japan and Australia). The Company defines developed markets as all markets of the world that are not emerging markets.

Remaining Performance Obligations
ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, requires disclosure of remaining performance obligations that represent the aggregate transaction price allocated to performance obligations with an original contract term greater than one year which are fully or partially unsatisfied at the end of the period. Remaining performance obligations include noncancelable purchase orders, unfulfilled obligations, extended warranty and service agreements and do not include revenue from contracts with customers with an original term of one year or less.
With respect to certain clear aligner treatment plans, the Company enters into contracts that involve multiple future performance obligations which include optional additional aligners at no additional charge. The Company’s treatment plans are comprised of the following performance obligations: initial aligner shipment and the subsequent shipments of any optional refinement aligners. For such plans, the Company also consider usage rates, which is the number of times a customer is expected to order additional refinement aligners.
At September 27, 2024, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $126.7 million, including $93.6 million related to clear aligner treatment plans. The Company expects to fulfill the majority of these performance obligations over the next 12 months.
Contract Liabilities
The Company often receives cash payments from customers in advance of the Company’s performance resulting in contract liabilities. These contract liabilities are classified as either current or long-term in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets based on the timing of when the Company expects to recognize revenue. As of September 27, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the contract liabilities were $158.0 million and $114.8 million, respectively, and are included within accrued expenses and other liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Revenue recognized during the nine months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023 that was included in the contract liability balance at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $87.4 million and $66.4 million, respectively.
Significant Customers
Sales to the Company’s largest customer were 11% and 10% of total sales for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024, respectively. Sales to the Company’s largest customer were 13% and 11% of total sales for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, respectively.

NOTE 17. INCOME TAXES
The Company’s effective tax rates of 14.6% and 39.9% for the three months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023, respectively, differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to a shift in the geographical mix of earnings, the impact of a valuation allowance against certain U.S. interest carryforwards in 2024, and the impact of the nondeductible convertible debt inducement expense in 2023.
The Company’s effective tax rates of 0.1% and 26.8% for the nine months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023, respectively, differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the impact of nondeductible impairment charges for goodwill and intangible assets, the impact of a valuation allowance against certain U.S. interest carryforwards in 2024, and the impact of the nondeductible convertible debt inducement expense in 2023.
The Company establishes valuation allowances for its deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that some or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. In assessing whether it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will be realized, the Company considers all available evidence, both positive and negative, including its recent cumulative earnings experience and expectations of future taxable income of the appropriate character by taxing jurisdiction, tax attribute carryback and carryforward periods, reversal patterns of existing deferred tax liabilities, and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies, however, there can be no assurance that the Company’s deferred tax assets will be fully realized. As of the quarter ended September 27, 2024, the Company maintains valuation allowances primarily against certain net operating losses and the portion of its U.S. nondeductible interest expense carryforward that it believes it will more likely than not be unable to realize.
On January 1, 2024, certain provisions of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development base Erosion and Profit Shifting 2.0 Pillar Two global minimum tax (“GMT”) became effective in various jurisdictions. Based on currently enacted law, the impact of GMT on the Company’s 2024 financial results is not expected to be material.
NOTE 18. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the applicable income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of dilutive potential shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method, except for the 2028 Convertible Notes and 2025 Convertible Notes, which are calculated using the if-converted method. Dilutive potential common shares include employee equity options, non-vested shares and similar instruments granted by the Company and the assumed conversion impact of convertible notes. The Company will settle any convertible note conversions through a combination settlement by satisfying the principal amount outstanding with cash and any convertible note conversion value in excess of the principal amount in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock or any combination thereof. As the Company will settle the principal amount of convertible notes in cash upon conversion, the convertible notes only have an impact on the Company's diluted earnings per share when the average share price of the Company’s common stock exceeds the conversion price, in any applicable period. See the computation of earnings per share below for the dilutive impact of the convertible notes for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023.
In connection with the offering of the 2025 Convertible Notes, the Company entered into Capped Calls, which are intended to reduce or offset the potential dilution from shares of common stock issued upon conversion. The Company completed a partial unwind of the Capped Calls in connection with the Notes Exchanges. Refer to Note 12 for further discussion of the Capped Calls.
The impact of the remaining Capped Calls is not included when calculating potentially dilutive shares since their effect is anti-dilutive. The Capped Calls will mitigate dilution for the conversion of the remaining 2025 Convertible Notes up to the Company’s common stock price of $23.79. If the remaining 2025 Convertible Notes are converted at a price higher than $23.79 per share, the Capped Calls will no longer mitigate dilution from the conversion of the remaining 2025 Convertible Notes.

NOTE 19. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company operates and reports its results in two separate business segments, the Specialty Products & Technologies and Equipment & Consumables segments. When determining the reportable segments, the Company aggregated operating segments based on their similar economic and operating characteristics. Operating profit represents total revenues less operating expenses, excluding nonoperating income (expense), interest expense and income taxes. Operating profit amounts in the Other segment consist of unallocated corporate costs and other costs, including goodwill and intangible impairment charges, which are not considered in management’s evaluation of reportable segment operating performance. The identifiable assets by segment are those used in each segment’s operations. Inter-segment amounts are not significant and are eliminated to arrive at consolidated totals.
The Company’s Specialty Products & Technologies products primarily include implants, regenerative products, prosthetics, orthodontic brackets, aligners and lab products. The Company’s Equipment & Consumables products primarily include traditional consumables such as bonding agents and cements, impression materials, infection prevention products and restorative products, while the Company’s equipment products primarily include digital imaging systems, software and other visualization and magnification systems.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements present our historical financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows in accordance with GAAP.
OVERVIEW
General
We provide products that are used to diagnose, treat and prevent disease and ailments of the teeth, gums and supporting bone, as well as to improve the aesthetics of the human smile. We help our customers deliver the best possible patient care through industry-leading solutions, technologies, and services. With leading brand names, innovative technology and significant market positions, we are a leading worldwide provider of a broad range of solutions to support implant-based tooth replacements, orthodontic treatments, diagnostic solutions, as well as general dental consumables, equipment and services, and are dedicated to driving technological innovations that help dental professionals improve clinical outcomes and enhance productivity. Our research and development, manufacturing, sales, distribution, service and administrative facilities are located in more than 30 countries across North America, Asia, Europe, the Middle East and Latin America.
We operate in two business segments: Specialty Products & Technologies and Equipment & Consumables. Our Specialty Products & Technologies segment develops, manufactures and markets products primarily related to dental implant systems, including regenerative solutions, dental prosthetics and associated treatment software and technologies, as well as orthodontic bracket systems, aligners and lab products. Our Equipment & Consumables segment develops, manufactures and markets products primarily related to dental equipment and supplies used in dental offices, including digital imaging systems, software and other visualization/magnification systems; endodontic systems and related consumables; and restorative materials and instruments, rotary burs, impression materials, bonding agents and cements and infection prevention products.
For the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024, sales derived from customers outside of the United States were 51.2% and 52.1%, respectively, compared to the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023 of 51.1% and 52.1%, respectively. As a global provider of dental consumables, equipment and services, our operations are affected by worldwide, regional and industry-specific economic and political factors. Given the broad range of dental products, software and services provided and geographies served, we do not use any indices other than general economic trends to predict our overall outlook. Our individual businesses monitor key competitors and customers, including to the extent possible their sales, to gauge relative performance and the outlook for the future.
As a result of our geographic and product line diversity, we face a variety of opportunities and challenges, including rapid technological development in most of our served markets, the expansion and evolution of opportunities in emerging markets, trends and costs associated with a global labor force, consolidation of our competitors and increasing regulation. We operate in a highly competitive business environment in most markets, and our long-term growth and profitability will depend in particular on our ability to expand our business in emerging geographies and emerging market segments, identify, consummate and integrate appropriate acquisitions, develop innovative and differentiated new products and services, expand and improve the effectiveness of our sales force, continue to reduce costs and improve operating efficiency and quality and effectively address the demands of an increasingly regulated global environment. We are making significant investments to address the rapid pace of technological change in our served markets and to globalize our manufacturing, research and development and customer-facing resources (particularly in emerging markets and our dental implant business) in order to be responsive to our customers throughout the world and improve the efficiency of our operations.
Key Trends and Conditions Affecting Our Results of Operations
General Economic Conditions
In addition to industry-specific factors, we, like other businesses, face challenges related to global economic conditions, including inflation, interest rates, fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates, slow economic growth, and continuing supply chain disruptions. Dental costs are largely out-of-pocket for the consumer and thus utilization rates can vary significantly depending on economic growth. While many of our products are considered necessary by patients regardless of the economic environment, certain products and services that support discretionary dental procedures may be more susceptible to changes in economic conditions.
Usage Rate Assumptions Related To Aligner Treatment Plans
Our aligner business, included in the Specialty, Products & Technologies segment, enters into revenue contracts that involve multiple future performance obligations which include optional aligners at no additional charge. Our treatment plans are comprised of the following performance obligations: initial aligner shipment and the subsequent shipments of any optional refinement aligners. For such plans, we also consider usage rates, which is the number of times a customer is expected to order additional refinement aligners. This usage rate is the basis for estimating the amount of transaction price to allocate to future performance obligations.
We continually review and update the usage rate and other related assumptions. As part of this review throughout 2024, we updated our assumptions based on our evaluation of current inputs and historical usage data. This evaluation resulted in certain changes, including an increase in the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to future performance obligations for new treatment plans entered into during the year, which impacted the timing of revenue recognition. Future changes to usage rates and related assumptions may impact the pattern of revenue recognition for future treatment plans. The process of estimating the number of times a clear aligner customer is expected to order additional aligners after the initial aligner shipment requires judgment and evaluation of inputs, including historical usage data in order to predict future usage patterns.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
On a period-over-period basis, currency exchange rates positively impacted reported sales by 0.5% for the three months ended September 27, 2024, compared to the comparable period of 2023, primarily due to the weakened U.S. dollar against major currencies. Additionally, on a period-over-period basis, currency exchange rates negatively impacted reported sales by 0.6% for the nine months ended September 27, 2024, compared to the comparable period of 2023, primarily due to the strength of the U.S. dollar against major currencies. Any future strengthening of the U.S. dollar against major currencies would negatively impact our sales and results of operations for the remainder of the year, and any weakening of the U.S. dollar against major currencies would positively impact our sales and results of operations for the remainder of the year.
Pricing Controls
Certain countries, as well as some private payors, also control the price of health care products, directly or indirectly, through reimbursement, payment, pricing or coverage limitations, tying reimbursement to outcomes or (in the case of governmental entities) compulsory licensing. For example, China has implemented volume-based procurement policies, a series of centralized reforms instituted in China on both a national and regional basis that has resulted in significant price cuts for medical and dental consumables.
Russia-Ukraine Conflict
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the global response to this invasion, including sanctions imposed by the U.S. and other countries, could have an adverse impact on our business, including our ability to market and sell products in the affected regions, potentially heightening our risk of cyber security attacks, impacting our ability to enforce our intellectual property rights in Russia, creating disruptions in the global supply chain, and potentially having an adverse impact on the global economy, financial markets, energy markets, currency rates and otherwise. While we are experiencing volatility in sales from this region, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine did not have a material impact on our overall financial position or results of operations as of and for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023.
Ongoing Israel-Hamas War and Related Conflict
In response to the attacks in Israel and the subsequent and expanding hostilities, we continue to monitor the social, political, and economic environment in Israel and in the region for any impact to our operations. We maintain a production facility in Israel related to our Alpha-Bio Tech Implant brand. While we have experienced some volatility in the region, the Israel-Hamas War and related hostilities have not had a material impact on our business.
Seasonal Nature of Business
General economic conditions impact our business and financial results, and certain of our businesses experience seasonal and other trends related to the end markets and regions that they serve. For example, sales of capital equipment have historically been stronger in the fourth calendar quarter. However, as a whole, we are not subject to material seasonality.
Non-GAAP Measures
In order to establish period-to-period comparability, we include the non-GAAP measure of core sales in this report. References to the non-GAAP measure of core sales (also referred to as core revenues or sales/revenues from existing businesses) refer to sales calculated according to GAAP, but excluding:
•sales from acquired businesses for one year from the acquisition date;
•sales from discontinued products; and
•the impact of currency translation.
We exclude sales from acquired businesses in order to provide accurate year over year comparisons. Sales from discontinued products includes major brands or major products that we have made the decision to discontinue as part of a portfolio restructuring. Discontinued brands or products consist of those which we (1) are no longer manufacturing, (2) are no longer investing in the research or development of, and (3) expect to discontinue all significant sales of within one year from the decision date to discontinue. The portion of sales attributable to discontinued brands or products is calculated as the net decline of the applicable discontinued brand or product from period-to-period. We exclude sales from discontinued products because discontinued products do not have a continuing contribution to operations and management believes that excluding such items provides investors with a means of evaluating our on-going operations and facilitates comparisons to our peers.
The portion of sales attributable to currency translation is calculated as the difference between:
•the period-to-period change in sales; and
•the period-to-period change in sales after applying current period foreign exchange rates to the prior year period.
Core sales growth should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for or superior to, sales, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We believe that reporting the non-GAAP financial measure of core sales growth provides useful information to investors by helping identify underlying growth trends in our on-going business and facilitating comparisons of our sales performance with our performance in prior and future periods and to our peers. We also use core sales growth to measure our operating and financial performance. We exclude the effect of currency translation from core sales because currency translation is not under our control, is subject to volatility and can obscure underlying business trends.

Sales and core sales growth for the three months ended September 27, 2024 decreased 4.8% and 5.3%, respectively, as compared to the corresponding period in 2023. A decrease in sales volume driven by channel inventory realignment, and changes to revenue deferral related to our clear aligner treatment plans negatively impacted sales by 6.8% on a period-over-period basis, partially offset by an increase in sales price of 1.5%. Sales volume for the three months ended September 27, 2024 was negatively impacted by an overall sales decrease driven by lower demand in North America, Europe and China.
Sales and core sales growth for the nine months ended September 27, 2024 decreased 3.3% and 2.7%, respectively, as compared to the corresponding period in 2023. A decrease in sales volume driven by channel inventory realignment, and changes to revenue deferral related to our aligner treatment plans negatively impacted sales by 3.6% on a period-over-period basis, partially offset by an increase in sales price of 0.9%. Sales volume for the nine months ended September 27, 2024 was negatively impacted by an overall sales decrease driven by lower demand in North America and Europe, partially offset by an increase in Russia and China.

The increase in cost of sales and the decrease in gross profit margin during the three months ended September 27, 2024 as compared to the comparable period in 2023, was primarily driven by unfavorable product mix, higher costs due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates, and lower period-over-period savings associated with productivity improvements. The decrease in gross profit margin percentage was further impacted by lower volume driven by channel inventory realignment, and changes to revenue deferral related to our clear aligner treatment plans, partially offset by a 1.5% increase in sales price.
The increase in cost of sales and decrease in gross profit margin during the nine months ended September 27, 2024 as compared to the comparable period in 2023, was primarily driven by unfavorable product mix, higher costs due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates, the impairment of certain long-lived assets and lower period-over-period savings associated with productivity improvements. The decrease in gross profit margin percentage was further impacted by lower volume driven by channel inventory realignment, and changes to revenue deferral related to our clear aligner treatment plans, partially offset by a 0.9% increase in sales price.

The increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales for the three months ended September 27, 2024 as compared to the comparable period of 2023, was primarily due to higher sales and marketing investments and increased compensation.
The increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales for the nine months ended September 27, 2024 as compared to the comparable period of 2023, was primarily due to higher sales and marketing investments, increased compensation, increased bad debt and higher legal settlement costs, partially offset by a decrease in amortization of intangible assets.
R&D expenses as a percentage of sales for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024, was consistent with the comparable periods in 2023.
Goodwill and intangible asset impairment for the nine months ended September 27, 2024 of $1,153.8 million consisted of a $960.5 million goodwill charge and a $193.3 million intangible asset charge. Approximately $707.8 million of the goodwill impairment charge related to our Specialty Products & Technologies segment and $252.7 million related to our Equipment & Consumables segment. The reduction in value was due to adverse macroeconomic factors as a result of weakened global demand, a sustained suppressed stock price, higher cost of capital, and increased raw material, supply chain and service costs, which contributed to reduced revenue forecasts, lower operating margins, and reduced expectations of future cash flows.
The intangible asset impairment charges consisted of $101.1 million related to certain indefinite-lived trade names within the Specialty Products & Technologies segment and $92.2 million which consisted of certain finite-lived patents and technology and customer relationships within the Equipment & Consumables segment and was primarily due to a reduction in projected cash flows discussed above.
There were no goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges recorded for the three months ended September 27, 2024 nor for the three or nine month periods ended September 29, 2023.
OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE), NET
Other income, net for the three months ended September 27, 2024 primarily consists of net gains on investments, while Other expense, net for the three months ended September 29, 2023 primarily consists of $29.0 million of inducement and other expenses associated with the Notes Exchanges and a loss on investments of $3.3 million.
Other expense, net for the nine months ended September 27, 2024 primarily consists of net losses on investments, while Other expense, net for the nine months ended September 29, 2023 consists primarily of $29.0 million of inducement and other expenses associated with the Notes Exchanges, offset by a $3.6 million net gain on investments.
INTEREST COSTS AND FINANCING
Interest costs were $11.9 million and $15.4 million for the three months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023, respectively, and $36.5 million and $49.5 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023, respectively. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to higher returns on cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by higher variable rate term borrowings and interest rates.

Our effective tax rate of 14.6% for the three months ended September 27, 2024 differed from the comparable period in 2023 primarily due to a shift in our geographical mix of earnings, the impact of a valuation allowance against certain U.S. interest carryforwards in 2024 and the impact of the nondeductible convertible debt inducement expense in 2023.
Our effective tax rate of 0.1% for the nine months ended September 27, 2024 differed from the comparable period in 2023 primarily due to nondeductible impairment charges for goodwill and intangible assets, the impact of a valuation allowance against certain U.S. interest carryfowards in 2024 and the impact of the nondeductible convertible debt inducement expense in 2023.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operating and investing activities. We continue to generate substantial cash from operating activities and believe that our operating cash flow and other sources of liquidity are sufficient to allow us to manage our capital structure on a short-term and long-term basis and continue investing in existing businesses and consummating strategic acquisitions.
Following is an overview of our cash flows and liquidity:

Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities can fluctuate significantly from period-to-period due to working capital needs and the timing of payments for income taxes, restructuring activities, pension funding and other items impacting reported cash flows.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $204.1 million during the nine months ended September 27, 2024, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $173.7 million for the comparable period of 2023. The increase in cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 27, 2024 is primarily due to timing of vendor payments combined with an increase in cash collections, partially offset by lower net income as compared to 2023.
Investing Activities
Cash flows relating to investing activities consist primarily of cash used for capital expenditures and acquisitions. Capital expenditures are made primarily for increasing capacity, replacing equipment, supporting new product development and improving information technology systems.
Net cash used in investing activities was $47.2 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2024, as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $49.8 million for the comparable period in 2023, and was primarily due to the net purchases of investments held in a rabbi trust combined with the absence of proceeds for the sale of an equity investment in the prior year, offset by lower net payments for purchases of property, plant and equipment.
Financing Activities
Cash flows relating to financing activities consist primarily of cash flows associated with debt borrowings and the issuance of common stock.
Net cash used by finance activities was $102.8 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2024 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $115.6 million for the comparable period of 2023, primarily due to the net borrowings during 2023 as compared to a repayment of $100.0 million of the 2028 Term Loan during 2024.
For a description of our outstanding debt as of September 27, 2024, refer to Note 12 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
We intend to satisfy any short-term liquidity needs that are not met through operating cash flow and available cash primarily through our revolving credit facility.
Cash and Cash Requirements
As of September 27, 2024, we held $991.3 million of cash and cash equivalents that were held on deposit with financial institutions. Of this amount, $212.6 million was held within the United States and $778.7 million was held outside of the United States. We will continue to have cash requirements to support working capital needs, capital expenditures and acquisitions, pay interest and service debt, pay taxes and any related interest or penalties, fund our restructuring activities as required and support other business needs. We generally intend to use available cash, internally generated funds and our revolving credit facility to meet these cash requirements, but in the event that additional liquidity is required, particularly in connection with acquisitions, we may need to enter into new credit facilities or access the capital markets. We may also access the capital markets from time to time to take advantage of favorable interest rate environments or other market conditions. However, there is no guarantee that we will be able to obtain alternative sources of financing on commercially reasonable terms or at all. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business” in our 2023 10-K.
Generally, cash and cash equivalents held in these financial institutions may be withdrawn or redeemed at face value, and therefore minimal credit risk exists with respect to them. Nonetheless, deposits with these financial institutions exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limits or similar limits in foreign jurisdictions, to the extent such deposits are even insured in such foreign jurisdictions. While we monitor on a systematic basis the cash and cash equivalent balances in the operating accounts and adjust the balances as appropriate, these balances could be impacted if one or more of the financial institutions with which we deposit our funds fails or is subject to other adverse conditions in the financial or credit markets. To date, we have experienced no loss of principal or lack of access to our invested cash or cash equivalents; however, we can provide no assurance that access to our cash and cash equivalents will not be affected if the financial institutions where we hold our cash and cash equivalents fail.
While repatriation of some cash held outside the United States may be restricted by local laws, most of our foreign cash could be repatriated to the United States. Following enactment of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act of 2017 (“TCJA”) and the associated transition tax, in general, repatriation of cash to the United States can be completed with no incremental U.S. tax; however, repatriation of cash could subject us to non-U.S. jurisdictional taxes on distributions. The cash that our non-U.S. subsidiaries hold for indefinite reinvestment is generally used to finance foreign operations and investments, including acquisitions. The income taxes, if any, applicable to such earnings including basis differences in our foreign subsidiaries are not readily determinable.
As of September 27, 2024, we believe we have sufficient sources of liquidity to satisfy our cash needs over the next 12 months and beyond, including our cash needs in the United States.
Contractual Obligations
There were no material changes to our contractual obligations during the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
There were no material changes to the Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements described in the 2023 10-K that would have a material impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Debt Financing Transactions
For a description of our outstanding debt as of September 27, 2024, refer to Note 12 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Critical Accounting Estimates
There were no material changes to our critical accounting estimates described in the 2023 10-K that have had a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, other than the below related to acquired intangibles.
Acquired Intangibles
Our business acquisitions typically result in the recognition of goodwill, technology, customer relationships and other intangible assets, which affect the amount of future period amortization expense and possible impairment charges that we may incur. Refer to Note 6 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our policies relating to goodwill and acquired intangibles.
We review goodwill and identified intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. We also test goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives at least annually for impairment. Determining whether an impairment loss occurred requires valuation, including making a comparison of the carrying amount to the sum of discounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. These analyses require us to make judgments and estimates about future sales, expenses, market conditions and discount rates related to these assets. If actual results are not consistent with our estimates and assumptions, goodwill and other intangible assets may be overstated and a charge would need to be taken to net income which would adversely affect our consolidated financial statements.
During the second quarter ended June 28, 2024, we identified indicators of a "more likely than not" impairment related to various reporting units within our Specialty Products & Technologies and Equipment & Consumables segments. For goodwill, we used the income approach in performing our goodwill impairment test to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value amount. Our reporting units are the financial components of operating segments which constitute businesses for which discrete financial information is available and regularly reviewed by segment management. The income approach uses a discounted cash flow model with inputs developed using both internal and market-based data. Our significant assumptions in the discounted cash flow models vary amongst, and are specific to, each reporting unit which include, but are not limited to, discount rates, revenue growth rates, and operating margin assumptions. The discounted cash flow model requires judgments and assumptions about projected sales growth, future operating margins, discount rates and terminal values. There are inherent uncertainties related to these assumptions and our judgment in applying them to the analysis of goodwill impairment.
Our goodwill impairment analysis at June 28, 2024 indicated that the fair value of five of our eight reporting units did not exceed their carrying values and consequently resulted in a $960.5 million impairment charge. The excess of the estimated fair value over carrying value (expressed as a percentage of carrying value for the respective reporting unit) for the three reporting units not impaired, ranged from approximately 38% to approximately 88%, and zero for the five reporting units with impairments. In order to evaluate the sensitivity of the fair value calculations used in the goodwill impairment test, we applied a hypothetical 10% decrease to the fair values of each reporting unit and compared those hypothetical values to the reporting unit carrying values. Based on this hypothetical 10% decrease, the excess of the estimated fair value over carrying value (expressed as a percentage of carrying value for the respective reporting unit) for the three reporting units not impaired, ranged from approximately 24% to approximately 69%. For the five impaired reporting units, the application of a hypothetical 10% decrease in fair value would result in an additional impairment of approximately $289 million.
For indefinite-lived intangible assets, we used the relief from royalty method to estimate the fair value. Our significant assumptions vary amongst, and are specific to, each underlying indefinite-lived intangible asset which includes, but is not limited to, discount rates, revenue growth rates assumptions (including perpetual growth rates) and royalty rates. As a result of our indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test at June 28, 2024, we recorded an impairment charge of $101.1 million related to certain indefinite-lived trade names within the Specialty Products & Technologies segment. The reduction in value was primarily due to a reduction in projected cash flows as discussed above.
Our impairment analysis for indefinite-lived intangible assets at June 28, 2024 indicated that the fair value of two of our three trade names did not exceed their carrying value and consequently resulted in a $101.1 million impairment charge. The excess of the estimated fair value over carrying value (expressed as a percentage of carrying value for the asset) for the remaining intangible asset was approximately 41%. In order to evaluate the sensitivity of the fair value calculations used in the indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test, we applied a hypothetical 10% decrease to the fair value and compared that hypothetical value to the underlying asset carrying value. Based on this hypothetical 10% decrease, the excess of the estimated fair value over carrying value (expressed as a percentage of carrying value for the intangible asset) for the intangible asset was approximately 27%. For the two trade names impaired, the application of a hypothetical 10% decrease in fair value would result in an additional impairment of approximately $20 million.
As of and for the three months ended September 27, 2024, there were no events or changes in circumstance to indicate that the carrying value of goodwill or intangible assets may not be recoverable. As a result, we did not record any impairment loss for goodwill and identified assets for the three months ended September 27, 2024.
Furthermore, we review the carrying amounts of other finite-lived intangible assets whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment indicators include, among other factors, cash flow deficits, historic or anticipated declines in revenue or operating profit, and adverse legal or regulatory developments. If it is determined that such indicators are present and the review indicates that the assets will not be fully recoverable based on undiscounted estimated cash flows, their carrying values are reduced to estimated fair market value. Estimated fair market value is determined primarily using projected cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. For the purposes of identifying and measuring impairment, long-lived assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. We recorded an impairment of $92.2 million related to developed technology and customer relationships within our Equipment & Consumables segment as of and for the three and six months ended June 28, 2024. We did not record any impairment loss for finite-lived intangible assets for the three months ended September 27, 2024.
