“Our strong fourth quarter and full year performance reflects the rising demand for our industry-leading dental lasers,” commented
John Beaver
, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Furthermore, our robust balance sheet and continued business momentum allowed us to enter 2022 in a favorable position to achieve our operating objectives for the year.
“With only about 7% of the U.S. dental community currently using dental lasers, we are confident in our ability to drive further adoption of this new standard of care. The positive clinical data published in 2021 on the use of dental lasers, combined with the launch of our specialist academies for endodontists, periodontists, pediatric dentists, and dental hygienists is generating increased adoption of laser technology. These initiatives, along with the continued success of our Waterlase Exclusive Trial Programs and our further penetration into the DSO space, positions us for continued revenue growth in 2022. With every one percentage point increase in market adoption of laser technology in the U.S. alone, we estimate it will generate an additional
$50 million
in revenue for BIOLASE, assuming we keep our same 60% market share.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”), this press release includes certain historical non-GAAP financial information. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures assist investors in making comparisons of period-to-period operating results and that, in some respects, these non-GAAP financial measures are more indicative of the Company’s ongoing core operating performance than their GAAP equivalents.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, allowance for doubtful accounts, loss on patent litigation settlement, stock-based and other non-cash compensation, debt forgiveness, and other income, net. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA in its evaluation of the Company’s core results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believes that these measures are important components of its internal performance measurement process. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures presented by the Company may be different from similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
