BIOLASE ANNOUNCES POSTIVE PRELIMINARY REVENUE RESULTS FOR 2021 FOURTH QUARTER; ENTERS 2022 WITH SIGNIFICANT MOMENTUM
Foothill Ranch, Calif., January 10, 2022 – BIOLASE, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIOL), the global leader in dental lasers, today announced preliminary 2021 fourth quarter revenue results that are significantly above fourth quarter revenue for both 2020 and pre-COVID 2019. The Company will announce the results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2021 in the first half of March 2022.
The Company believes it is well positioned with its industry-leading dental lasers to leverage and capitalize upon the momentum it generated throughout 2021. Below are preliminary fourth quarter results along with a recap of the Company’s 2021 key accomplishments and anticipated operational and product milestones as the Company looks to execute its business plan to increase adoption of BIOLASE’s laser products by new and existing customers and dental specialists.
Preliminary 2021 Fourth Quarter Results
Meaningful Accomplishments Throughout 2021
Anticipated 2022 Key Operational and Product Milestones to Position the Company for Long-Term Growth and Success
The Company expects to:
"Our anticipated strong fourth quarter performance reflects the rising demand for our industry-leading dental lasers and increased adoption by new customers including general dentists and specialists," commented John Beaver, President and Chief Executive Officer.
“Over the past 12 months, we have formed specialist academies to expand the awareness of the benefits of our laser to dental specialists. Specifically, we have launched specialist academies for endodontists, periodontists, pediatric dentists, and dental hygienists to drive further adoption of our laser technology. The market opportunity that exists for BIOLASE within each of these communities is very meaningful. I believe these initiatives, along with continued success of our Waterlase Exclusive Trial Programs and our continued penetration into the DSO market, positions us well for significant revenue growth in 2022.
“We remain excited because only about 7% of the U.S. dental community currently uses dental lasers, and with every one percentage point increase in adoption of laser technology, we estimate it can generate an additional $50 million in potential revenue for BIOLASE,” concluded Mr. Beaver.
