Reworded

Our business is sensitive to general economic conditions. Sustained inflation, increases in interest rates, slower global economic growth, threatened or actual recessions, continuing supply chain disruptions, geopolitical tensions, actual or anticipated default on sovereign debt, volatility in the currency and credit markets, consumer confidence, high levels of unemployment or underemployment (and a corresponding increase in the uninsured and underinsured population), reduced levels of capital expenditures, changes or anticipation of potential changes in government trade, fiscal, tax and monetary policies, changes in capital requirements for financial institutions, government deficit reduction and budget negotiation dynamics, sequestration, austerity measures, social or political unrest, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and other challenges that affect the global economy have previously and may continue to adversely affect us and our distributors, customers and suppliers. Our success also depends upon the continued strength of the markets we serve. In many markets, dental reimbursement is 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 susceptible to changes in economic conditions. The above factors can have the effect of:

Reworded

There can be no assurance that the capital markets will be available to us or that the lenders participating in our credit facilities will be able to provide financing in accordance with their contractual obligations. When growth in the global economy or in any of the markets we serve slows for a significant period, there is significant deterioration in the global economy or such markets or when improvements in the global economy do not benefit the markets we serve, we may be unable to execute on our growth strategy and our business and financial statements could be adversely affected.

Reworded

For example, we generate approximately 9%7% of our annual sales from Greater China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely influenced by evolving political, economic and social conditions in China generally. China’s government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies, and it maintains control over China’s economic growth through setting monetary policy and determining treatment of particular industries or companies. 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 consumable products. Further, considerable uncertainty exists regarding the long-term effects of the expansionary monetary and fiscal policies adopted by the central banks and financial authorities of some of the world’s leading economies, including the U.S. and China. Any uncertainty or adverse changes to economic conditions in China or the policies of China’s government or its laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of China and could impact our business and operating results, leading to a reduction in demand for our products and adversely affecting our business, growth rate, competitive position, results of operations and financial condition.

Reworded

Trade policies and disputes at timesmay result in increased tariffs, trade barriers, and other protectionist measures, which can increase our manufacturing costs, make our products less competitive, reduce demand for our products, limit our ability to sell to certain customers, limit our ability to procure components or raw materials, or impede or slow the movement of our goods across borders. Increasing protectionism and economic nationalism may lead to further changes in trade policies and regulations, domestic sourcing initiatives, or other formal and informal measures that could make it more difficult to sell our products in, or restrict our access to, somecertain markets.

Added

As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, discussions remain ongoing in respect of such trade restrictions and tariffs as well as retaliatory tariffs enacted in response to such actions. In light of these events, there continues to exist significant uncertainty about the future trade relationships between the U.S. and other countries with respect to such trade policies, treaties, and tariffs and it is difficult to predict what further trade-related actions governments may take, which may include trade restrictions and additional or increased tariffs and export controls imposed on short notice, and we may be unable to quickly and effectively react to or mitigate such actions. We have already experienced an increase in costs attributable to higher tariffs. To the extent that we are unable to offset the tariffs or if the tariffs or our countermeasures negatively impact demand, our business, profitability, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows will continue to be adversely affected. Any future tariffs and trade restrictions may also adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Reworded

Additionally, in connection with the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, governments including the U.S., United Kingdom,UK, and those of the European UnionEU have imposed export controls on certain products and financial and economic sanctions on certain industry sectors and parties in Russia which has triggered retaliatory sanctions by the Russian government and its allies. Russia also imposed significant currency control measures aimed at restricting the outflow of foreign currency and capital from Russia. Although these export controls and sanctions did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, the outcome and future impacts of the conflict and governmental responses thereto remain highly uncertain. Existing and future sanctions may have broad and pervasive impacts to the global economy and our operations, which could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Reworded

We cannot predict whether additional U.S. and foreign customs quotas, duties (including antidumping or countervailing duties), tariffs, taxes or other charges or restrictions, requirements as to where raw materials must be purchased or other restrictions on our imports will be imposed in the future or adversely modified, whether retaliatory tariffs and trade measures will be imposed by other counties on U.S. exports, or what effect such actions would have on our costs of operations. FutureExisting and future quotas, duties or tariffs may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Future trade agreements could also provide our competitors with an advantage over us,advantage, or increase our costs, either of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Furthermore, trade disputes and protectionist measures, or continued uncertainty about such matters, could result in declining consumer confidence and slowing economic growth or recession, and could cause our customers to reduce, cancel, or alter the timing of their purchases with us.purchases. Sustained geopolitical tensions could lead to long-term changes in global trade and supply chains, and decoupling of global trade networks, which could have a material adverse effect on our businessbusiness, results of operations and growth prospects.

Reworded

In addition, some of our businesses purchase certain materials, components and services from sole or limited source suppliers for reasons of quality assurance, regulatory requirements, cost effectiveness, availability or uniqueness of design. If these or other suppliers encounter financial, operating or other difficulties or if our relationship with them changes, we may not be able to establish additional or replacement suppliers in a timely or cost-effective manner, including as a result of FDA and other regulations that require, among other things, validation of materials and components prior to their use in our products, which could further negatively impact our business and results of operations. The supply chains for our businesses could also be disrupted by supplier capacity constraints, bankruptcy or exiting of the business for other reasons, work stoppages, decreased availability of key raw materials or commodities and external events such as natural disasters, pandemic health issues and restrictions, war, terrorist actions, cyberattacks, widespread protests and civil unrest, governmental actions and legislative or regulatory changes. Any of these factors could result in production interruptions, delays, extended lead times and inefficiencies. The supply chains for our businesses have also been impacted by global conflicts, including the COVID-19Russia-Ukraine related lockdowns in Chinawar and the Russia-UkraineIsrael-Hamas conflict.war. Failure to obtain the needed supply of these products or to offset the increased costs could adversely impact our operating results.

Removed

Our facilities, supply chains, distribution systems and information technology systems are subject to catastrophic loss due to fire, flood, earthquake, hurricane, public health crises and pandemics, war, terrorism, widespread protests and civil unrest, or other natural or man-made disasters. For example, our corporate headquarters and many of our operations, including certain of our manufacturing facilities, are located in California, which is prone to earthquakes and wildfires, in addition to the other risks discussed above. In January 2025, several wildfires impacted Los Angeles County. While these wildfires did not have a material adverse effect on our business, there can be no assurance that future wildfires will not have a material impact. If any of these facilities, supply chains or systems were to experience a catastrophic loss, it could disrupt our operations, delay production and shipments, result in defective products or services, damage customer relationships and our reputation and result in legal exposure and large repair or replacement expenses. The third-party insurance coverage that we maintain will vary from time to time in both type and amount depending on cost, availability and our decisions regarding risk retention, and may be unavailable or insufficient to protect us against such losses.

Added

Our growing use of artificial intelligence systems to automate processes and analyze data poses inherent risks.

Added

We have and are continuing to incorporate artificial intelligence, including machine learning, in certain of our internal operations and into certain of our products and services, with the intent to enhance their operation and effectiveness. For example, we have incorporated machine-learning into certain of our software to provide artificial intelligence analysis of dental patient images designed to enhance a dentist’s own analysis. Flaws, biases or malfunctions in these systems could lead to operational disruptions, data loss, or erroneous decision-making, impacting our operations, financial condition and reputation. Ethical and legal challenges may arise, including biases or discrimination in artificial intelligence outcomes, non-compliance with data protection regulations, and lack of transparency. The legal and regulatory landscape and industry standards surrounding artificial intelligence technologies is rapidly evolving and uncertain, and compliance may impose significant operational costs and may limit our ability to develop, deploy or use artificial intelligence technologies. For a discussion of the artificial intelligence legal and regulatory landscape, please refer to “Item 1. Business—Regulatory Matters—Data Privacy and Security Laws.” Furthermore, the deployment of artificial intelligence systems could expose us to increased cybersecurity threats, such as data breaches and unauthorized access, including risks from employees using unauthorized artificial intelligence systems in violation of our artificial intelligence governance policy, leading to financial losses, legal liabilities, and reputational damage. We also face competitive risks if we fail to adopt artificial intelligence or other machine-learning technologies in a timely manner.

As a global healthcare organization, we are subject to relatively stringent data privacy and security laws, regulations, and customer-imposed controls in numerous jurisdictions as a result of having access to and processing confidential, personal and/or sensitive data in the course of our business. Our subcontractors and vendorvendors to whom we outsource our information technology systems are also subject to the requirements of data privacy and security laws, regulations, and controls.

Based on the annual revisions for 2024, penalties for HIPAA violations can range from $141 to $2.134 million dollars per violation, with a maximum fine of $2.134 million for identical violations during a calendar year. In 2018, a nation-wide health benefit company paid $16 million to HHS following a data breach. Prior to this record payment, the largest HIPAA fine was $5.55 million. Under the law, state attorneys general have authority to bring civil enforcement actions under HIPAA, and attorneys general are actively engaged in enforcement. In addition, any penalties assessed under HIPAA could be in addition to other penalties assessed by a state for a data breach in violation of state laws.

Removed

The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (“HITECH”) Act was enacted as an update to HIPAA and makes business associates of covered entities directly liable for compliance with certain HIPAA requirements, strengthens the limitations on the use and disclosure of protected health information without individual authorizations, and contemplates enforcement of noncompliance with HIPAA due to willful neglect. These changes have stimulated increased enforcement activity and enhanced the potential that health care providers will be subject to financial penalties for violations of HIPAA. In addition, the Secretary of HHS is required to perform periodic audits to ensure covered entities (and their business associates, as that term is defined under HIPAA) comply with the applicable HIPAA requirements, increasing the likelihood that a HIPAA violation will result in an enforcement action.

Removed

In addition to the federal HIPAA regulations, most states also have laws that protect the confidentiality of health information and other personal information, and these laws may be broader in scope with respect to protected health information and other personal information than HIPAA. Certain of these laws grant individuals various rights with respect to personal information, and we may be required to expend significant resources to comply with these laws. Further, all 50 states and the District of Columbia have adopted data breach notification laws that impose, in varying degrees, an obligation to notify affected persons and/or state regulators in the event of a data breach or compromise, including when their personal information has or may have been accessed by an unauthorized person.

Removed

Some state laws may also impose physical and electronic security requirements regarding the safeguarding of personal information, such as social security numbers and bank and credit card account numbers. Finally, several states have adopted comprehensive privacy laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”) (collectively, the “CCPA”). Such laws grant consumers various rights over how their personal information is collected, use, and shared, as well as the ability to access their information, request that their information be deleted, corrected, to opt out of certain processing, to port their information to other third parties, and other rights.

Removed

Violation of state privacy, security, and breach notification laws can trigger significant monetary penalties. Certain of the states’ privacy, security, and data breach laws, including, for example, the CCPA, include private rights of action that may expose us to private litigation regarding our privacy and security practices and significant damages awards or settlements in civil litigation. The CPRA, which went into effect on January 1, 2023, significantly amended the CCPA and imposed additional data protection obligations on covered businesses, including additional consumer rights processes, limitations on data uses, new audit requirements for higher risk processing, and opt outs for certain uses of sensitive data. It also created a new California Privacy Protection Agency (“CPPA”) authorized to issue substantive regulations and enforce the CCPA, which could result in increased privacy and information security enforcement. The CPPA continues to engage in additional rulemaking addressing various proposed requirements around privacy, security, automated decision-making technology, data brokers, and other related issues.

Removed

In addition, as federal, state and local governments consider adopting new privacy and security legislation, our operations may be subject to different standards in different geographical regions. This may require significantly more resources for compliance and increase the risk of regulatory enforcement and private litigation with respect to our privacy and security practices.

Removed

We are also subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), the primary data protection law in the European Economic Area, including the European Union (collectively, the “EU”), as well as associated EU member state data protection laws and the UK GDPR in the United Kingdom. These laws impose significant requirements for covered businesses (controllers and processors) of personal data, including, for example, standards for obtaining consent from individuals to process their personal data, disclosures to individuals, an individual data rights regime, specified timelines for data breach notifications, limitations on retention and secondary uses of information, requirements pertaining to health data and pseudonymised (i.e., deidentified) data, restrictions on data transfers outside of the EU, and obligations when we contract third-party processors in connection with the processing of personal data. The GDPR allows EU member states certain flexibility to make additional laws and regulations concerning the same issues, including, for example, further limiting the processing of genetic, biometric or health data. Failure to comply with the requirements of the GDPR may result in fines of up to €20,000,000 or up to 4% of the total worldwide annual turnover of the preceding financial year, whichever is higher. Other administrative penalties may be imposed under the applicable national data protection laws of the EU member states.

Removed

We also have to comply with a number of data privacy laws that apply to cross border data transfers including those in the EU, Switzerland, UK, Brazil and China. These may result in increased compliance costs and complexity when transferring data internationally.

Removed

Data residency and localization laws have also been passed or are under consideration in several countries (such as China and Russia), which require personal information relating to their citizens to be maintained on local servers and impose additional data transfer restrictions.

Removed

Finally, the last few years have seen a number of U.S. federal and state regulatory efforts around the use of artificial intelligence. Like privacy and security, this is a quickly evolving patchwork of guidance, rules, and regulation from a number of legislative bodies, agencies, and other authorities. In the European Union, even more comprehensive and prescriptive requirements over artificial intelligence have been enacted in the form of the EU AI Act, which went into effect on August 1, 2024 with varying implementation deadlines. To the extent our efforts in research and innovation entail or embed the use of artificial intelligence into our products and services, or to the extent we leverage artificial intelligence in our internal operations (either directly or through third-party vendors), such legal and regulatory changes could ultimately apply to and thus impact our company’s practices.

Reworded

Compliance with the varying data privacy regulations across the U.S. and around the world is complex and havehas required significant expenditures and may require additional expenditures and changes in our products or business models that increase complexity and competition. We may also experience less demand for our products if we are unable to enable our customers to comply with their obligations under data privacy laws.

Removed

Our growing use of AI systems to automate processes and analyze data poses inherent risks.

Removed

We have and are continuing to incorporate AI, including machine learning, in certain of our internal operations and may in the future incorporate AI into certain of our products and services, with the intent to enhance their operation and effectiveness. For example, we have incorporated machine-learning into certain of our software to provide AI analysis of dental patient images designed to enhance a dentist’s own analysis. Flaws, biases or malfunctions in these systems could lead to operational disruptions, data loss, or erroneous decision-making, impacting our operations, financial condition and reputation. Ethical and legal challenges may arise, including biases or discrimination in AI outcomes, non-compliance with data protection regulations, and lack of transparency. The legal and regulatory landscape and industry standards surrounding AI technologies is rapidly evolving and uncertain, and compliance may impose significant operational costs and may limit our ability to develop, deploy or use AI technologies. Furthermore, the deployment of AI systems could expose us to increased cybersecurity threats, such as data breaches and unauthorized access leading to financial losses, legal liabilities, and reputational damage. We also face competitive risks if we fail to adopt AI or other machine-learning technologies in a timely manner.

Reworded

Even if we successfully innovate and develop new and enhanced products and services, we may incur substantial costs in doing so, and our profitability may suffer. Further, if we are unable to decrease our costs associated with our Specialty Products & Technologies segment, we may be unable to improve our profitability. In addition, promising new offerings may fail to reach the market or realize only limited commercial success because of real or perceived efficacy or safety concerns, failure to achieve positive clinical outcomes, uncertainty over third-party reimbursement or entrenched patterns of clinical practice. For additional information on third-party reimbursement of dental products, please refer to “Item 1. Business—Regulatory Matters.Matters – Coverage and Reimbursement.”

Added

Our success depends on our ability to attract, develop and retain our key personnel.

Removed

We have undergone, and may continue to experience, changes to our executive leadership team and senior management, and our future success will depend in part on our ability to manage these transitions successfully and on our ability to attract, develop and retain our key personnel.

Removed

Over the past fiscal year, there have been changes to our executive leadership team. These leadership transitions along with other senior management changes may be inherently difficult to manage. If we do not successfully manage this transition process, it could be viewed negatively by our customers, employees or investors and could have a negative impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Reworded

Historically, a substantial portion of our sales had come from a limited number of distributors, particularly Henry Schein, which accounted for approximately 12% of our sales in 2025 and 10% of our sales in 2024 and 2023.2024. It is anticipated that Henry Schein will continue to be the largest contributor to our sales for the foreseeable future. We do not currently have a master distribution agreement in place with Henry Schein for the distribution of our products in the U.S. and Canada. There can be no assurance that Henry Schein or any particular distributor will purchase any particular quantity of products from us or continue to purchase any products at all. If Henry Schein or any other key distributor or channel partner significantly reduces the volume of products purchased from us, it would have an adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Reworded

Many of the markets we serve are technology-driven, and as a result intellectual property rights play a significant role in product development and differentiation. We own numerous patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets and other intellectual property and licenses to intellectual property owned by others, which in aggregate are important to our business. The intellectual property rights that we obtain, however, may not be sufficiently broad or otherwise may not provide us a significant competitive advantage, and patents may not be issued for pending or future patent applications owned by or licensed to us. In addition, the steps that we and our licensors have taken to maintain and protect our intellectual property may not prevent it from being challenged, invalidated, circumvented, designed-around or becoming subject to compulsory licensing, particularly in countries where intellectual property rights are not highly developed or protected. The laws of foreign countries in which we do business or contemplate doing business in the future may not recognize intellectual property rights or protect them to the same extent as do the laws of the U.S. In some circumstances, enforcement may not be available to us because an infringer has a dominant intellectual property position or for other business reasons, or countries may require compulsory licensing of our intellectual property. We also rely on nondisclosure and noncompetition agreements with employees, consultants and other parties to protect, in part, trade secrets and other proprietary rights. There can be no assurance that these agreements will adequately protect our trade secrets and other proprietary rights and will not be breached, that we will have adequate remedies for any breach, that others will not independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information or that third parties will not otherwise gain access to our trade secrets or other proprietary rights. In addition, there is a risk of employees inadvertently inputting trade secret information into artificial intelligence technologies, thereby enabling third parties to access such information. Our failure to obtain or maintain intellectual property rights that convey competitive advantage, adequately protect our intellectual property or detect or prevent circumvention or unauthorized use of such property and the cost of enforcing our intellectual property rights could adversely impact our business, including our competitive position, and financial statements.

Reworded

From time to time, we receive notices from third parties alleging intellectual property infringement or misappropriation of third parties’ intellectual property and cannot be certain that the conduct of our business does not and will not infringe or misappropriate the intellectual property rights of others. The increased use of artificial intelligence, particularly generative artificial intelligence, also creates the possibility of certain intellectual property infringement risks. Any dispute or litigation regarding intellectual property could be costly and time-consuming to defend due to the complexity of many of our technologies and the uncertainty of intellectual property litigation. Our intellectual property portfolio may not be useful in asserting a counterclaim, or negotiating a license, in response to a claim of infringement or misappropriation. In addition, as a result of such claims of infringement or misappropriation, we could lose our rights to critical technology, be unable to license critical technology or sell critical products and services, be required to pay substantial damages or license fees with respect to the infringed rights, be required to license technology or other intellectual property rights from others, be required to cease marketing, manufacturing or using certain products or be required to redesign, re-engineer or re-brand our products at substantial cost, any of which could adversely impact our business, including our competitive position, and financial statements. Third-party intellectual property rights may also make it more difficult or expensive for us to meet market demand for particular product or design innovations. If we are required to seek licenses under patents or other intellectual property rights of others, we may not be able to acquire these licenses on acceptable terms, if at all. In addition, certain of our agreements contain provisions requiring us to indemnify counterparties for third party infringement claims. Even if we successfully defend against claims of infringement or misappropriation, we may incur significant costs and diversion of management attention and resources, which could adversely affect our business and financial statements.

The long-term effects of climate-related risks are difficult to predict and may be widespread. The impacts of climate change may include physical risks (such as rising sea levels or changes in weather patterns), social and human effects (such as population dislocations or harm to health and well-being), compliance costs and transition risks (such as regulatory or technology changes), shifts in market trends (such as customers putting an increased priority on purchasing products that are sustainably made) and other adverse effects. Any of our primary locations may be vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate-related risks. For example, our corporate headquarters are located in California, which has historically experienced, and is likely to continue to experience, climate-related events including drought, water scarcity, flooding, heat waves, wildfires and resultant air quality impacts and power shutoffs associated with wildfire prevention. In January 2025, several wildfires impacted Los Angeles County. While these wildfires did not have a material adverse effect on our business, there can be no assurance that future wildfires will not have a material impact. The effects of climate-related risks could also impair the availability and cost of certain products, commodities and energy (including utilities), which in turn may impact our ability to procure goods or services required for the operation of our business at the quantities and levels we require.

As of February 7,6, 2025,2026, we had outstanding indebtedness of approximately $1.4$1.5 billion, including approximately $793.6$960.6 million under our second amended credit agreement (the “Second Amended Credit Agreement,Agreement”), $489.9$492.7 million under our 2028 Convertible Notes, $116.1 million under our 2025 Convertible Notes (together with the 2028 Convertible Notes, the “Notes”), and hadwith an additionalaggregate $750.0 million ofavailable borrowing capacity up to $750.0 million, with a maximum alternative currency sublimit of $675.0 million, under the revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) pursuant to the Second Amended Credit Agreement, with the ability to request further increases to the revolving credit facility up to the greater of consolidated EBITDA or $525.0 million. As of December 31, 2025, we had €100.0 million in outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility.

Holders of the Notes may require us to repurchase their Notes following a fundamental change at a cash repurchase price generally equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. In addition, upon conversion, we will satisfy part or all of our conversion obligation in cash. We may not have enough available cash or be able to obtain financing at the time we are required to repurchase the Notes or pay the cash amounts due upon conversion. In addition, applicable law, regulatory authorities and the agreements governing our other indebtedness may restrict our ability to repurchase the Notes or pay the cash amounts due upon conversion. Our failure to repurchase the Notes or to pay the cash amounts due upon conversion when required will constitute a default under the indenturesindenture governing the 2028 Convertible Notes and the 2025 Convertible Notes between us and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee, dated as of August 10, 2023 and May 21, 2020, respectively.2023. A default under the 2028 Convertible Notes Indenture, the 2025 Convertible Notes Indenture (together, the “IndenturesIndenture”), or the fundamental change itself could also lead to a default under agreements governing our other indebtedness, which may result in that other indebtedness becoming immediately payable in full. We may not have sufficient funds to satisfy all amounts due under the other indebtedness and the Notes.

Reworded

In the event the conditional conversion feature of the Notes is triggered, holders of Notes will be entitled to convert the Notes at any time during specified periods at their option. We made an irrevocable election to satisfy the principal amounts of Notes outstanding upon conversion with cash. If one or more holders elect to convert their Notes, we would be required to settle a portion or all of our conversion obligation through the payment of cash, which could adversely affect our liquidity. In addition, even if holders do not elect to convert their Notes, we could be required under applicable accounting rules to reclassify all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the Notes as a current rather than long-term liability, which would result in a material reduction of our net working capital. As of December 31, 2024,2025, none of the conditions allowing the Note holders to convert the 2028 Convertible Notes was satisfied. As a result, as of December 31, 2024,2025, the 2028 Convertible Notes are classified as a non-current liability. As of December 31, 2024, one of the conditions allowing the Note holders to convert the 2025 Convertible Notes was satisfied. As a result, as of December 31, 2024, the 2025 Convertible Notes are classified as a current liability.

The existing capped call transactions we entered into in connection with the 2025 Notes may affect the value of the Notes and our common stock.

Removed

In connection with the sale of the 2025 Convertible Notes, we entered into capped call transactions (the “Capped Calls”) with the initial purchasers of the 2025 Convertible Notes, their respective affiliates and other financial institutions (the “option counterparties”). The Capped Calls are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution upon any conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted 2025 Convertible Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap.

Removed

In connection with establishing their hedges of the Capped Calls, the option counterparties or their affiliates entered into various derivative transactions with respect to our common stock. These parties may modify their hedge positions in the future by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to our common stock and/or purchasing or selling our common stock or other securities of ours in secondary market transactions prior to the maturity of the 2025 Convertible Notes (and are likely to do so during any observation period related to a conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes). This activity could cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price of our common stock or the Notes.

Removed

In August 2023, we completed a partial unwind of the Capped Calls in connection with a partial exchange of our 2025 Convertible Notes.

Removed

We are subject to counterparty risk with respect to the Capped Calls.

Removed

The option counterparties are financial institutions, and we will be subject to the risk that any or all of them might default under the Capped Calls. Our exposure to the credit risk of the option counterparties will not be secured by any collateral. Past global economic conditions have resulted in the actual or perceived failure or financial difficulties of many financial institutions. If an option counterparty becomes subject to insolvency proceedings, we will become an unsecured creditor in those proceedings with a claim equal to our exposure at that time under the Capped Calls with such option counterparty. Our exposure will depend on many factors but, generally, an increase in our exposure will be correlated to an increase in the market price and in the volatility of our common stock. In addition, upon a default by an option counterparty, we may suffer adverse tax consequences and more dilution than we currently anticipate with respect to our common stock. We can provide no assurances as to the financial stability or viability of the option counterparties.

Reworded

Borrowings under certain of our facilities, including our Second Amended Credit Agreement, are made at variable rates of interest and expose us to interest rate volatility. Interest rates increased during 2022 and 2023. If interest rates continue to increase, our debt service obligations on certain of our variable rate indebtedness will increase even though the amount borrowed remains the same, and our net income and cash flows, including cash available for servicing our indebtedness, will correspondingly decrease. In addition, we reference the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") as the primary benchmark rate for our variable rate indebtedness, in lieu of the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"). SOFR is a relatively new reference rate and with a limited history, and changes in SOFR have, on occasion, been more volatile than changes in other benchmark or market rates. As a result, the amount of interest we may pay on our variable rate indebtedness is difficult to predict.

◦Governmental and private health care providers and payors around the world are increasingly utilizing managed care for the delivery of health care services, centralizing purchasing, limiting the number of vendors that may participate in purchasing programs, forming group purchasing organizationsorganizations, DSOs, and integrated health delivery networks and pursuing consolidation to improve their purchasing leverage and using competitive bid processes to procure health care products and services.

Reworded

These changes, as well as other impacts from market demand, government regulations, third-party coverage and reimbursement policies and societal pressures have started changing the way health care is delivered, reimbursed and funded and may cause participants in the health care industry and related industries that we serve to purchase fewer of our products and services, reduce the prices they are willing to pay for our products or services, reduce the amounts of reimbursement and funding available for our products and services from governmental agencies or third-party payors, heighten clinical data requirements, reduce the volume of medical procedures that use our products and services, implement policies that affect the acceptance rate of new technologies and products and increase our compliance and other costs. In addition, we may be excluded from important market segments or unable to enter into contracts with group purchasing organizationsorganizations, DSOs, and integrated health networks on terms acceptable to us, and even if we do enter into such contracts they may be on terms that negatively affect our current or future profitability. All of the factors described above could adversely affect our business and financial statements.

Reworded

Our businesses operate in industries that are intensely competitive and have been subject to increasing consolidation.consolidation, including the growing significance of DSOs. Because of the range of the products and services we sell and the variety of markets we serve, we encounter a wide variety of competitors. See “Item 1. Business—Competition.” In order to compete effectively, we must retain longstanding relationships with major customers and DSOs and continue to grow our business by establishing relationships with new customerscustomers, DSOs and external experts, continually developing new products and services to maintain and expand our brand recognition and leadership position in various product and service categories and penetrating new markets, including emerging markets. In addition, significant shifts in industry market share have occurred and may in the future occur in connection with product problems, safety alerts and publications about products, reflecting the competitive significance of product quality, product efficacy and quality systems in our industry. Our failure to compete effectively and/or pricing pressures resulting from competition may adversely impact our financial statements, and our expansion into new markets may result in greater-than-expected risks, liabilities and expenses. Some of our competitors have a broader product portfolio than we do. In addition, we are exposed to the risk that our competitors or our customers may introduce private label, generic, or low-cost products that compete with our products at lower price points. New disruptive technologiestechnologies, including those that incorporate artificial intelligence, may emerge that displace our existing technologies. If these competitors’ products capture significant market share or decrease market prices overall, this could have an adverse effect on our financial statements.

Most of our products are medical devices subject to regulation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”),FDA, by other federal and state governmental agencies, by comparable agencies of other countries and regions, by certain accrediting bodies and by regulations governing hazardous materials (or the manufacture and sale of products containing any such materials). The FDA and these other regulatory authorities enforce additional regulations regarding the safety of X-ray emitting devices. The global regulatory environment has become increasingly stringent and unpredictable. Several countries that did not have regulatory requirements for medical devices have established such requirements in recent years, and other countries have expanded, or plan to expand, their existing regulations. For example, the EU MDR imposes stricter requirements for the marketing and sale of medical devices, including in the area of clinical evaluation requirements, quality systems and post-market surveillance. Medical devices that have been assessed and/or certified under the EU Medical Device Directive may continue to be placed on the market until 2027/2028 (or until the expiry of their certificates, if applicable and earlier); however, requirements regarding the distribution, marketing and sale including quality systems and post-market surveillance have to be observed by manufacturers, importers and distributors as of the application date. Complying with the EU MDR required modifications to our quality management systems, additional resources in certain functions, and required and will continue to require updates to technical files, among other changes. Failure to meet these requirements could adversely impact our business in the EU and other regions that tie their product registrations to the EU requirements.

Reworded

To varying degrees, these regulators require us to comply with laws and regulations governing the development, testing, manufacturing, labeling, marketing, distribution and post-marketing surveillance of our products. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain regulatory clearance (such as 510(k) clearance) or approvals for our new products or modifications to (or additional indications or uses of) existing products within our anticipated timeframe or at all, and if we do obtain such clearance or approvalapproval, it may be time-consuming, costly and subject to restrictions. Our ability to obtain such regulatory clearances or approvals will depend on many factors and the process for obtaining such clearances or approvals could change over time. Even after initial regulatory clearance or approval, we are subject to periodic inspection by these regulatory authorities, and if safety issues arise, we may be required to amend conditions for use of a product, such as providing additional warnings on the product’s label or narrowing its approved intended use, which could reduce the product’s market acceptance. Failure to obtain required regulatory clearances or approvals before marketing our products (or before implementing modifications to or promoting additional indications or uses of our products), other violations of these regulations, failure to remediate inspectional observations to the satisfaction of these regulatory authorities and real or perceived efficacy or safety concerns or trends of adverse events with respect to our products (even after obtaining clearance for distribution) have led to FDA Form 483 Inspectional Observations, and can lead to warning letters, notices to customers, declining sales, loss of customers, loss of market share, remediation and increased compliance costs, mandatory recalls, seizures of adulterated or misbranded products, injunctions, administrative detentions, refusals to permit importations, partial or total shutdown of production facilities or the implementation of operating restrictions, narrowing of permitted uses for a product, suspension or withdrawal of approvals and pre-market notification rescissions. We are also subject to various laws regulating fraud and abuse, pricing and sales and marketing practices in the health care industry and the privacy and security of health information as well as manufacturing and quality standards, including the federal regulations described in “Item 1. Business —Regulatory Matters.” Ensuring that our internal operations and business arrangements with third parties comply with applicable healthcare laws and regulations involves substantial costs. It is possible that government authorities will conclude that our business practices do not comply with current or future statutes, regulations, agency guidance or case law involving applicable fraud and abuse or other healthcare laws and regulations.

The FDA, the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and, in some cases, the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) strictly regulate the promotional claims that may be made about approved or cleared products. In particular, any clearances we may receive only permit us to market our products for the uses indicated on the labeling cleared by the FDA. We may request additional labeluse indications for our current products, and the FDA may deny those requests outright, require additional expensive performance or clinical data to support any additional indications or impose limitations on the intended use of any cleared products as a condition of clearance. If the FDA determines that we have marketed or advertised our products for off-label use, we could be subject to fines, injunctions or other penalties. It is also possible that other federal, state or foreign enforcement authorities might take action if they consider our business activities to constitute promotion of an off-label use or misbranding, which could result in significant penalties, including, but not limited to, criminal, civil and administrative penalties, substantial monetary penalties, damages, fines, disgorgement, exclusion from participation in government healthcare programs, and/or the curtailment of our operations. Any of these events could significantly harm our business and results of operations and cause our stock price to decline.

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 dental consumables, solutions, technologies, and services. With leading brand names, innovative technology and strong market positions, we are a leading worldwide provider of a broadwide range of solutions to support implant-baseddental tooth replacements,implants, orthodontic treatments, and diagnostic solutions, as well as general dental consumable products, 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.

Reworded

During 2024,2025, 52%53% of our sales were derived from customers outside the United States.U.S. As a global provider of dental consumable products, equipment and services, our operations are affected by worldwide, regional and industry-specific economic and political factors. Given the broadwide 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.

Reworded

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 competitorscompetitors, trade restrictions and tariffs, 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.

Reworded

In addition to industry-specific factors, we, like other businesses, face challenges related to global economic conditions, including sustained inflation, increases in interest rates, fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates, slower economic growth,growth or recession, trade policies and regulations, customer channel inventory realignment 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.

Added

Increasing protectionism and economic nationalism may lead to further changes in trade policies and regulations, domestic sourcing initiatives, or other formal and informal measures that could make it more difficult to sell our products in, or restrict our access to certain markets. For example, trade tensions between the U.S. and China have led to increased tariffs and trade restrictions. The U.S. has significantly increased tariffs on products imported from China into the U.S. and implemented new tariffs on imports into the U.S. from other countries, particularly from Canada, Mexico, and the EU. In response to these tariffs, some foreign countries, including China, have instituted retaliatory tariffs, which impact our products, while other countries have threatened retaliatory tariffs on certain U.S. products. It is difficult to predict what further trade-related actions governments may take, which may include trade restrictions and additional or increased tariffs and export controls imposed on short notice. While we expect to largely offset the impact of the existing tariffs with mitigating actions including supply chain adjustments, pricing strategies, and cost management, we have already experienced an increase in cost due to higher tariffs. To the extent that we are unable to offset the tariffs or if the tariffs or our countermeasures negatively impact demand, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows will continue to be adversely affected. Any future tariffs and trade restrictions may also adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Reworded

Significant portions of our sales and costs are exposed to changes in foreign exchange rates. During the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, our products were sold in more than 130 countries and 52%53% of our sales were to customers outside of the United States.U.S. We seek to manage our foreign exchange risk, in part, through our operations, including managing same-currency sales in relation to same-currency costs and same-currency assets in relation to same-currency liabilities. As our operations use multiple foreign currencies, including the euro, British pound, Brazilian real, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Canadian dollar and Chinese yuan, changes in those currencies relative to the U.S. dollar will impact our sales, cost of sales and expenses, and consequently, net income. Exchange rate fluctuations in emerging markets may also directly affect our customers’ ability to buy our products in these geographic markets.

Reworded

On a year-over-year basis, currency exchange rates negativelypositively impacted reported sales by 0.7%1.6% for the year ended December 31, 20242025 compared to 2023,2024, primarily due to the strengthening of theweakening U.S. dollar against most major currencies. Any future weakening of the U.S. dollar against major currencies would positively impact our sales and results of operations and any strengthening of the U.S. dollar against major currencies would adversely impact our sales and results of operations and any weakening of the U.S. dollar against major currencies would positively impact our sales and results of operations.

Added

We also hold certain receivables and payables denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar. Movement in the related foreign currency rates in relation to the U.S. dollar may also impact our results of operations.

Reworded

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 (“VBP”) 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 consumable products.consumables.

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 years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Added

We continue to monitor the evolving 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.

Our aligner business, included in the Specialty Products & Technologies segment, enters into revenue contracts that involve multiple 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.

Added

We continually review and update the usage rate and other related assumptions. 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.

Reworded

We continue transforming our portfolio by investing in our Implant-BasedDental ToothImplant ReplacementSolutions and Orthodontic Solutions businesses and also making investments in emerging markets, critical to our growth strategy. The cost reduction initiatives we have taken and will continue to undertake in the future allow us to further invest in this growth strategy, which in turn we believe should improve our margins.

Reworded

Our continued investment in Spark, our clear aligner system, has led to increased manufacturing capacity and continues to gain market adoption as orthodontists and their patients see the benefits of the clear, stain resistant and comfortable design.

This usage rate is the basis for estimating the amount of transaction price to allocate to future performance obligations.

Removed

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.

Our sales are primarily derived from the sale of dental consumable products, equipment and services to third-party distributors and end-users. For additional information regarding our products, including descriptions of our products, refer to “Item 1. Business—Our Business Segments.”

Reworded

Cost of sales consists primarily of cost of materials, facilitieslabor, facilities, restructuring costs, and other infrastructure used to manufacture our productsproducts, and shipping and handling costs attributable to delivering our products to our customers. Also included in cost of sales are productivity improvement and restructuring expenses related to our manufacturing operations.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses consist of, among other things, the costs of selling, marketing, promotion, advertising and administration (including business technology, facilities, legal, finance, human resources, business development and procurement), restructuring costs, and amortization expense for intangible assets that have been acquired through business combinations. Also included are productivity improvement and restructuring expenses related to our SG&A.

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. 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.

Goodwill and intangible asset impairment for the year ended December 31, 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 primarily due to adverse macroeconomic factors such as, higher cost of borrowing and inflationary pressures, geopolitical factors and weakened global demand which contributed to reduced expectations of future cash flows and a sustained suppressed stock price.

As of December 31, 2024,2025, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants.

Reworded

As of December 31, 2024,2025, $1,069.1$1,211.7 million of cash and cash equivalents were held on deposit with financial institutions. Of this amount, $218.3$374.4 million was held within the United StatesU.S. and $850.8$837.3 million was held outside of the United States.U.S. 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 and fund our restructuring activities as required and support other business needs. We generally intend to use available cash andcash, internally generated fundsfunds, 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.”

Reworded

Generally, cash and cash equivalents held in these financial institutions may be withdrawn or redeemed at face value, and we therefore believe that 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.

Added

During the second quarter of 2025, we borrowed from our Revolving Credit Facility to pay in full the $116.3 million in principal amount outstanding on our 2025 Convertible Notes which matured on June 1, 2025.

Added

In early 2025, we transferred approximately $320 million of international cash to the U.S. Although local laws may restrict the repatriation of certain cash held outside the U.S., most of our foreign cash is available for repatriation. Under current U.S. tax law, cash may generally be repatriated to the U.S. without additional U.S. tax; however, such repatriation may be subject to non-U.S. withholding or other taxes on distributions. Cash held by our non-U.S. subsidiaries that is designated for indefinite reinvestment is primarily used to finance foreign operations and investments, including acquisitions. The income tax effects, if any, applicable to such earnings, including basis differences in our foreign subsidiaries, are not readily determinable or are impracticable to estimate.

Added

On February 5, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program, allowing us to purchase up to $250 million of our outstanding common stock through December 31, 2026. Stock repurchases made in connection with this program totaled approximately $165.9 million, or 9.2 million shares during the year ended December 31, 2025. Refer to Part II, Item 5 “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for more details. The cash outflows associated with the Company’s stock repurchases are classified in financing activities in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The conflict between the United States, Israel and Iran and related geopolitical instability may adversely affect our business.

Removed

In February 2026, the United States and Israel launched coordinated military strikes against Iran, which retaliated with missile attacks across the region. The ongoing conflict and any further escalation, including additional military actions, retaliatory measures, sanctions, disruptions to trade or transportation routes, cyberattacks, or other governmental or market responses, has and could continue to lead to significant disruption of global energy supplies and increases in global energy prices, heighten inflationary pressures on our input costs and supply chain, adversely affect global supply chains, energy markets, commodity prices, currency exchange rates, interest rates, financial markets and overall macroeconomic conditions, increase the cost or reduce the availability of debt financing, and adversely impact customer spending patterns in markets in which we operate. While the impacts of conflict between the United States, Israel, and Iran may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, we are unable to predict the extent or nature of these impacts at this time.

In February 2026,by the U.S. Supreme Court invalidated broad-based tariffs predicated on the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). The ultimate availability, timing, and amount of any potential refunds of such tariffs remain uncertain and are subject to further legal, regulatory, and administrative developments. In addition,Court, the U.S. Administration initiated new tariffs on all imports, subject to certain exceptions, and may impose additional tariffs. As a result, it remains difficult to predict what further trade-related actions governments may take, which may include trade restrictions and additional or increased tariffs and export controls imposed on short notice. While we expect to largely offset the impact of the existing tariffs with mitigating actions including supply chain adjustments, pricing strategies, and cost management, we have already experienced an increase in cost of sales due to higher tariffs. To the extent that we are unable to offset the tariffs or if the tariffs or our countermeasures negatively impact demand, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows will continue to be adversely affected. Any future tariffs and trade restrictions may also adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

As a global provider of dental products, equipment, and services, our operations are affected by worldwide, regional and industry-specific economic and political factors. Given the wide 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.

Increasing protectionism and economic nationalism may lead to further changes in trade policies and regulations, domestic sourcing initiatives, or other formal and informal measures that could make it more difficult to sell our products in, or restrict our access to, certain markets. During 2025 and continuing into 2026, the U.S. introduced trade policy actions that led to increased import tariffs across a wide range of countries at various rates, including imports from almost all countries and individualized higher tariffs on certain other countries, such as China. In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court invalidated broad-based tariffs predicated on the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). On April 20, 2026, Customs and Border Protection launched Phase 1 of an administrative IEEPA tariff refund process. Overall, we paid approximately $30 million in IEEPA related tariffs. We have claimed a refund of approximately $15 million in Phase 1 of the IEEPA tariff refund process. The remaining tariff amounts are covered by, or are expected to be covered by, subsequent phases of the IEEPA tariff refund process. To date, we have identified additional refund amounts eligible under Phase 2 of the IEEPA tariff refund process and will pursue those refunds consistent with any articulated procedures or otherwise by legal process. Given the nature of these refunds and the uncertainty with respect to the timing and availability, we record such benefits upon receiving the funds. In the second quarter of 2026, we received and recorded $12.6 million in tariff refunds as a component of cost of sales in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations related to our Phase 1 submission. As to recoverability associated with any remaining refunds, they continue to be subject to uncertainty and further legal, regulatory, and administrative developments.

The ultimate availability, timing, and amount of any potential refunds of such tariffs remain uncertain and are subject to further legal, regulatory, and administrative developments. In addition,Court, the U.S. Administration initiated new tariffs on all imports, subject to certain exceptions, and may impose additional tariffs. As a result, it remains difficult to predict what further trade-related actions governments may take, which may include trade restrictions and additional or increased tariffs and export controls imposed on short notice. While we expect to largely offset the impact of the existing tariffs with mitigating actions including supply chain adjustments, pricing strategies, and cost management, we have already experienced an increase in cost of sales due to higher tariffs. To the extent that we are unable to offset the tariffs or if the tariffs or our countermeasures negatively impact demand, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows will continue to be adversely affected. Any future tariffs and trade restrictions may also adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

On a period-over-period basis, currency exchange rates positively impacted reported sales by 4.3%1.6% and 2.8% for the three and six months ended AprilJuly 3, 2026 compared to the comparable periodperiods of 2025, primarily due to the weakening U.S. dollar against most major currencies. Any future weakening of the U.S. dollar against major currencies would positively impact our sales and results of operations for the remainder of the year, and any strengthening of the U.S. dollar against major currencies would adversely impact our sales and results of operations for the remainder of the year.

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, tyinglinking reimbursement to outcomes or (in the case of governmental entities) compulsory licensing. For example, China has implemented volume-based procurement policies (“VBP”), a series of centralized reforms instituted in China on both a national and regional basis that has resulted in significant price cutsreductions for medical and dental consumables.

Assumptions Related to Aligner Treatment Plans

Removed

Our aligner business, included in our Specialty Products & Technologies segment, enters into revenue contracts that involve multiple 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.

Removed

We continually review and update the usage rate and other related assumptions. 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.
