Wed, 10 Sep 2008 21:42:00 GMT

We believe a difficult U.S. economy and higher marketing expenses will hamper Align Tech, Inc.?s (ALGN) topline growth and margins. Strong international growth and foreign exchange gains will help offset this. In the near-term, we think earnings quality could become an issue as the management finds it difficult to meet growth targets. Meaningful earnings growth will be pushed out to fiscal 2009 and 2010. We are reiterating the current Hold recommendation. We have adjusted our models to reflect the current economic environment. We expect fiscal 2008 sales growth of 10%, in-line with the management?s guidance of $309 million - $314 million. Heavier marketing spending may be necessary to drive GP channel penetration required to achieve management s growth targets. As a result, margin pressure can be expected, possibly leading to earnings quality issues.[More...]
